Absolutely.
Thank you, Steve.
You know, I owe a huge debt of gratitude to the War Room Posse and to you, Steve Bannon, because we did accomplish the mission of elevating this message and bringing the message to the attention of the national media and the American people.
Because, you know, prior to coming on your show almost a year ago, the American people did not know that they were driving up and down the highways with a bunch of illegal alien truck drivers who weren't properly qualified, weren't properly trained, and hadn't been vetted.
You know, we don't even know who these drivers are.
And that's because, like in the case of the recent crash that we had just here in Indiana, these guys have snuck across the border either using the app
or some other means of getting into the country, they come into these sanctuary cities, they apply for asylum, and the loophole that has existed has been these asylum requests and these EAD cards.
So historically, the industry did not issue CDLs to illegal aliens who did not have lawful status in the United States.
And there was guidance issued in 2019.
And so even though we have awareness now to what the problem is, we do not have action on the problem.
President Trump issued an executive order that called for the investigation of the non-domicile CDL as soon as he heard that there might be a problem.
Our Secretary Duffy, who's been doing a great job of bringing awareness and jumping on this issue today.
conducted that investigation and found that it was absolutely true that the system's broken and that too many of these licenses have been issued and that they've been issued illegally.
And he did, the USDOT did issue an interim final ruling that stopped the further issuance
of the non-domiciled CDLs, but it did not revoke the hundreds of thousands of non-domiciled CDLs that have been issued improperly, illegally, and illicitly.
