Look at this No Kings rally.

And there's considerable evidence that George Soros and his network is behind funding these rallies, which may well be riots all across the country.

And Soros is writing the check.

And so I've introduced legislation called the Stop Funders Act.

that would add rioting to the list of predicate offenses for RICO.

Why is that?

Because it would let the Department of Justice use RICO racketeering to prosecute the money that is funding the anti-Semitic protests on campuses, the pro-open border protest in LA and other cities.

Well, listen, I'm not a fan of Qatar. I think they have a really disturbing pattern of funding theocratic lunatics who want to murder us, funding Hamas and Hezbollah. And that's a real problem. I also think the plane poses significant espionage and surveillance problems. So we'll see how this issue plays out. But I certainly have concerns.

Look, I very much hope he's on path one. Frankly, there are voices within the administration that are advocating for both directions. And there's a real difference of opinion within the administration on that front.

I think President Trump has an historic opportunity, an opportunity to use the leverage, and he's got leverage no other president has had, because he has credibly threatened these tariffs. Suddenly our trading partners desperately want to cut deals and want to dramatically reduce the tariffs they charge on US goods and services in exchange for President Trump lifting the tariffs he's announced.

If we sit here, Mark, 30 days, 60 days, 90 days from now, and the outcome is that tariffs worldwide have gone down massively, that is an incredible and an historic victory for the United States. It's very much the path that I am urging the president to go down. There's another path and there's some vocal people in the administration advocating it that don't see the tariffs as leverage.
