Transcript [lightly edited]


Welcome to your Wednesday, May 13th, 2026, morning update. So let’s start with this.

[video clip]

Does anybody want to guess who runs those 2% of counties where the majority of all murders occur? Thass a good guess. Democrats run murder town. It’s appropriate. It’s a murder cult. That’s how they are. And then, well, Mr. Trump comes along, and he says, ” Hey, we want law and order and peace and families to be able to walk the streets not just at night but during the day. And something crazy happens.

Quote, “study from the Council on Criminal Justice shows that the murder rate across America’s largest cities plummeted in 2025 to its lowest level since at least 1900. Let me repeat to put this in perspective, this marks the largest single-year drop in murders in recorded history.”

Well, how does that happen? Democrats didn’t have anything to do with it.

They run the most dangerous counties and cities in the entire country.

Roughly 60 to 65 of them out of the over 3,100 run by Democrats. Murder capitals, murder cult. Cook County, Illinois. Not surprising if you have 850 murders a year there. Over 600 of them just from Chicago. Los Angeles County. The city has over 300 murders a year. The county, I don’t have the exact number, but it’s bigger.

Harris County, Texas, which is where the city of Houston is, saw 348 murders, Other major hubs of Democrat murder, Philadelphia 250 to 270 murders a year. Baltimore, Maryland.

200 give or take Wayne County, Michigan, which is where Detroit is another 200 Orleans Parish, which is where the city of New Orleans is another hundred and twenty four st Louis, Missouri that county and the city over 150 if you removed just those America would be one of the safest places on the planet and as the young lady in the clip pointed out over 50 % of the counties in the entire country have no murders

And over 64% of them have zero or one. So we know what the problem is. The problem is Democrats. The question you have to ask is, since Democrats objected to Mr. Trump trying to remove criminals, murderers, rapists, from these cities, since Democrats objected to him moving in assets to reduce crime in places like Washington DC where it dropped 64%. What happens if they’re back in charge again? I can tell you the answer. It’s a rhetorical question. Murder and crime will go back up. You can vote for that if you want to, and you can vote for it, by not showing up in November to vote against it.

But I think that you really want peace and order and discipline and a little bit of liberty and maybe not so much poop or needles or homeless people on the streets and a lot less illegal alien gang members trafficking your children.

That’s it for today. We’ll talk to you tomorrow.
