They are now the fifth largest podcast network in the world. and home to some of the top-ranked shows. With that, I will take your questions, and Mary Margaret, why don't you kick us off?
So I gave a quote to one of the media outlets in this room yesterday that Democrats behaving like children would be the least surprising thing of the night. And unfortunately, that quote did turn out to be true. I think the president and everyone, frankly, was surprised by the Democrats refusing to stand for children. Not the president's policies, because, frankly, we expected that.
But for the everyday Americans who President Trump was shining a light on their stories, Mark Fogle, for instance, an American schoolteacher who was detained by the Russians, President Trump freed him. If Joe Biden had done that, they all would have been on their feet. But because of what came from President Trump, they weren't.
So we think it's very sad, but we're very proud of the president today. And the American people are the people that this president cares about most, and the reviews are in, and everybody loved his speech.
in the Oval Office who is committed to doing what's right for them, especially women and girls across the country. And I think it's very ironic, thank you for bringing up the point about women, that Democrat women were wearing pink to support our fellow females, yet they couldn't stand again for a young woman who was almost killed and severely injured by a man on the volleyball court.
They couldn't stand for the mother's of two beautiful young women whose lives were taken tragically at the hands of illegal people. So you can't say you're the party of women and then support men and women's sports and not stand up for basic law and order and immigration reform that will protect women in this country. That's what President Trump is doing. He's the president for women.
Lindsay, good to see you.
Well, I think Secretary Hegseth has responded to that this morning. He said that America will always be prepared to defend itself, especially under the leadership of this president in the Oval Office. And that certainly remains true.
Again, when it comes to tariffs, the president has been very tough on China, not just now with 20 percent and more with the reciprocal tariffs that will hit on April 2nd. But look at what he did in his first term. There were billions of dollars worth of tariffs that he implemented on China yesterday.
And it's quite telling that the previous administration did not rescind those tariffs because they realized the value that they had in not only deterring China, but also raising revenue here in the United States. Rachel.
Again, I don't have a crystal ball, but what I can assure the American people is that this president and this administration is doing everything they can. And I would remind you and everybody else in this room that it's because of the previous administration's economic policies that Americans were left. with record high inflation.
Inflation throughout Joe Biden's entire 48 months in office was at or above 3%. It hit record highs, as you know. And there's a whole list of what the Biden economic disaster this president was left to clean up. It's been a month, but he's working hard every single day to do just that.
The President is open to hearing about additional exemptions. He always has open dialogue, and he'll always do what's right, what he believes is right for the American people. But again, as for the egg crisis in this country, the President is wholeheartedly committed to ensuring we're increasing our egg supply, and we're also bringing down cost. And Secretary Rawlins has been all over this issue.
She comes from an agricultural background and family. That's why she's leading that very important department. She wrote an amazing op-ed in the Wall Street Journal. She's been all over the media talking about her plan. She has a real plan. The President endorses it. And he even, you know, gave her an off-the-prompter shout-out last night to say, Brooke, I'm counting on you.
It's an important issue. And this White House is working with Secretary of Agriculture every single day to address this issue.
When he was handing out blank checks and President Zelensky kept asking for more, Joe Biden was quite frustrated with that. So, again, as I've said repeatedly, Friday revealed the frustrations that this administration has had in closed-door negotiations with the Ukrainians. However, President Zelensky did put out a statement yesterday, which we believe is a positive step forward.
And National Security Advisor Mike Waltz has been talking to his Ukrainian counterparts. And so we're in the midst of this, and we'll see what happens next. Kaitlan.
The reciprocal tariffs will go into effect on April 2nd, and he feels strongly about that no matter what, no exemptions. So that's where the one month comes from.
He told them that they should get on it, start investing, start moving, shift production here to the United States of America where they will pay no tariff. That's the ultimate goal.
I believe what the National Security Council told me in regards to that was that they paused or they are reconsidering the funding for Ukraine, as you saw, the pause on the funding. As for intelligence matters, I would refer you to either the National Security Council or the CIA as well.
