Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.

**James Lankford** (0:53)
I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk is running the White House, folks.

**SPEAKER_4** (1:00)
I want to thank Charlie. He's an incredible guy. His spirit, his love of this country. He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.

We had an unbelievable event at University of Tennessee yesterday. It might have been our best event ever. Let's show the video here on screen, guys. It was a remarkable time. I mean, it was this amphitheater unlike anything we've ever seen. We had well over 3,000 to 4,000 students there, and it was really something. I got to be honest. And look at the amount of students from all different walks of life. It's one of the biggest crowds we've ever had. And I got to give University of Tennessee credit, not for anything they've done, but they built a great amphitheater. That made our job very easy yesterday. And as a presenter and as a speaker, it was pretty awesome and phenomenal. Yesterday, I was asked by somebody, well, Charlie, what has Trump even done so far as president? What has he done in the last 53 days? I don't think we have spent enough time on this program pausing, internalizing, and celebrating the magnitude and the weight of what president Trump has accomplished when it comes to the southern border. People know it, they're hearing it, but what I want to do is emphasize it to such an important degree to you today. To show you what president Trump has done on the border is so remarkable and it should never be taken for granted. US. Border Patrol, in the month of February, arrested 8,300 border jumpers coming into our country in February. 8,300 in an entire month. That is the fewest ever recorded. Let me say that again. That is the fewest ever recorded. And unlike under Joe Biden, they are not being released into the interior of the country. They're not getting a court date. They're being returned to their country of origin. Now, it's very easy to attack President Trump, saying, oh, these tariffs are a waste of time. Not so fast, my friend. These tariffs are also largely, and the threat of tariffs are why Mexico is now taking the security of the southern border seriously. A year ago, in February, 141,000 people were detained at the border. So we went from 141,000 under Joe Biden to 8,300. 141 to 8.3. A year ago, more than 3,500 people were caught crossing the border who were originally from China. Now it's only 130, and they're all being sent back to China. A year ago, 600 people were caught crossing from Marshatania. That's an impoverished African country where slavery is still very, very common. This month, the total was one, and they were sent back to their country of origin. This was always a question of the will. Washington claimed, including Mitch McConnell and James Lankford, that they needed sweeping new laws to secure the southern border, and they were lying to you. So there's two parts of what I want to talk about here. And also, by the way, there is breaking news. President Trump just posted that he had great discussions with Vladimir Putin. I'm going to allow Blake to pivot and read and analyze that while I break this down. So Blake, please focus on the Putin news while I continue on this. Because I want to, I need to emphasize the border win. There's so much happening, but we have to take a little bit of time and slow down and say, wow, what President Trump has accomplished here is remarkable. This is always a question of whether or not we wanted it. Understand that the biggest questions of our time, whether it be homelessness, whether it be the southern border, inflation is whether or not we want what is best. Joe Biden did not want a southern border. He wanted a dilution of national sovereignty. He wanted a great replacement of American citizens. He wanted a nonstop flow of illegals into the country. For whatever reason you can guess, you can hypothesize, but we know that he wanted it. We know certainly that is what he wanted.
