Really happy to have you here. So it is a statue called Best Friends Forever. It's about 12 feet tall.

We talked about this on last week's show. You might remember. This is a statue in Washington that was created by anonymous artists.

It shows Donald Trump and his longtime friend, the convicted pedophile and sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein, holding hands

and gazing lovingly at each other while they kick up their heels, seemingly delighting in their

longstanding friendship. We reported last week here on the show that this statue had a permit to be put up on the

National Mall in Washington, D.C.

But despite that, park service personnel were sent out by someone to topple it over and take it

down.

And the officials who toppled it over and took it down, they pretty severely damaged it.

They smashed in the Trump head part of it. They tore the hands apart so the Trump and Epstein figures wouldn't be holding

hands anymore. We reported last week at this time that the group that created the statue

was able to retrieve the broken statue and repair it.

And then they brought it back out again to put it up again, again with a permit to be there up on the National Mall.

When they went back to put it back up, they were met with a big show of federal force, not just park service personnel,

but also people in unmarked cars there to take it down as soon as they put it back up.

But these artists are nothing, if not persistent, because they did put it back up again for a third time.

Best Friends Forever. This time with even better repairs.

The plaque on the statue says in honor of friendship month, and it has the big

heart-hands symbol. It says, we celebrate the long-lasting bond between President Donald

J. Trump and his closest friend, Jeffrey Epstein. So the Trump administration took this

thing down twice, but the artists who made it got it back up for the weekend, right there on the National Mall.

When President Trump went to Norfolk, Virginia this weekend, to treat an audience of U.S. Navy sailors like they were paid attendees at one of his political rallies.
