From the very beginning of our country, our great American flag has always been shielded and protected by a special cast of citizen who has stepped forward to safeguard liberties cause.

When danger came, when duty called, when Almighty God asked,

who had the will and the strength to defend the land of the free,

each and every American veteran stood up and said,

Here I am, send me, here I am. They've come from every corner of this

nation, from the cornfields of Iowa to the hills and valleys of California, from the steel towns of

Pennsylvania to the vast plains of Texas, from the banks of the mighty Mississippi to the five boroughs of New York City.

With selfless commitment and unyielding conviction, they made themselves America's ramparts

and became the shield between our homeland and those who would do us harm with everything they had.

They did one thing above all else.

They put America first.

Hello, everybody, and welcome to the Great America Show.

Happy Veterans Day.

That was President Trump earlier today at Arlington,

thanking the men and women who make this country the land of the free because they are the brave. We want to start tonight's show with honoring all those veterans, the ones

we've lost in service, the one still alive. You guys are the reason that we're allowed to be out

here each and every day on this show. You guys are the reason that we're allowed to be out here each and every day on this

show. You guys are the ones that allow us to have our freedoms of speech to come out here and talk

to you every day without being worried about being jailed, being killed. That's what makes America great.

And we can't thank you enough. We're forever in debt to you.

My family members, both my grandparents, grandfathers, I should say, served in the military.

Many other family members, and I'm sure a lot of you out there watching this show and family members of yours served.
