The Latest Donald Trump Interview: Must-See Moments
Here’s what happened in under 5 minutes.
🧵 THREAD
In an explosive interview with Lex Fridman that’s quickly going viral, Donald Trump delivered several headline-making soundbites.
The first topic that grabbed viewers’ attention was Trump’s reaction to Kamala’s train-wreck interview with CNN, saying he “can’t believe” how “very poorly” she performed in what he called a “softball interview.”
“We have a woman who couldn’t do an interview. This was a really soft interview. This is an interview where they’re given multiple choice questions—multiple guesses. I call it multiple guess. And I don’t think she did well. I think she did very poorly,” Trump said.
The conversation then shifted to the issue of mass migration, sparked by reports of Venezuelan gangs taking over buildings in Colorado.
Trump said that countries like Venezuela are dumping their prisoners into America, noting that crime is down in those countries for a reason.
As president, Trump declared, “We can’t let that happen,” but acknowledged the rationale behind the prisoner dumping, given that America is willingly absorbing the world’s criminals.

The discussion pivoted to foreign policy, where Trump touted his approach to keeping the peace in Afghanistan during his tenure.
Crediting “The Stick,” he argued that his tough stance was why there were no U.S. casualties for 18 months before Biden’s chaotic withdrawal.
That disastrous withdrawal, which left 13 US soldiers dead, is a big reason why Putin felt emboldened to go into Ukraine, Trump claimed.
As the conversation continued, Trump dismissed any association with Project 2025, insisting that the Democrats know it has nothing to do with him, yet they continue to link him to it anyway.
“Project 2025 has absolutely nothing to do with me,” Trump stressed, adding that he hasn't even read the document.
“I've heard about things that are in there that I don't like, and there are some things in there that everybody would like. But there are things that I don't like at all. And I think it's unfortunate that they put it out, but it doesn't mean anything because it has nothing to do with me. Project 2025 has absolutely nothing to do with me.”
Lex Fridman didn’t shy away from pressing Trump on what he called “tension” with Joe Rogan, challenging him to go on Rogan’s podcast after saying some “not-so-nice things” about him.
Trump played it cool, denying any real tension, saying, “I guess I’d do it, but I haven’t been asked.”
This particular moment was an interesting exchange.
LEX FRIDMAN: “Let me ask you about my good friend Joe Rogan. So you had a bit of tension with him. So when he said nice things about RFK Jr., I think you've said some not-so-nice things about Joe. And I think that was a bit unfair. And as a fan of Joe, I would love to see you do his podcast because he is legit, the greatest conversationalist in the world. So what's the story behind the tension?”
DONALD TRUMP: “Well, I don't think there was any tension, and I've always liked him, but I don't know him. I only see him when I walk into the arena with Dana, and I shake his hand. I see him there, and I think he's good at what he does. But I don't know about doing his podcast. I mean, I guess I'd do it, but I haven't been asked and I'm not asking them. You know? I'm not asking anybody.”
LEX FRIDMAN: “It sounds like a challenging negotiation situation.”
DONALD TRUMP: “No, it's not really a negotiation. And he's sort of a liberal guy, I guess, you know, from what I understand. But he likes Kennedy. This was before I found this out, before Kennedy came in with us. He's going to be great. He's doing... Bobby's going to be great. But I like that he likes Kennedy. I do, too. He's a different kind of a guy, but he's got some great things going, and I think he's going to be, beyond politics, I think he could be quite influential in taking care of some situations that you probably would agree should be taken care of.”
The interview took another interesting turn when Trump reflected on his decision not to prosecute Hillary Clinton, saying, “She’s so lucky I didn’t do anything.”
Trump added that he “could have done a big number on Hillary Clinton,” but the reason he decided not to was because he thought it would divide the country because it “looked so bad.”
“I could have done a big number on Hillary Clinton. I thought it looked terrible to take the president's wife and put her in prison. She's so lucky. I didn’t do anything. She's so lucky. Hillary is a lucky woman because I had a lot of people pushing me, too. They wanted to see something, but I could have done something very bad. I thought it looked so bad.”
Arguably, the most interesting moment of the entire interview was when Lex Fridman questioned Trump about the Epstein client list, asking if the next Trump administration would reveal the names to the public.
Trump responded by saying he would have “no problem” doing that, adding that the names on that list would also be “very interesting.”
In the final moments, Trump emphasized what he sees as a major problem for today's America: a lack of religion.
He says, “I think our country's missing a lot of religion. I think it really was a much better place with religion.”
“It was almost a guide to a certain extent. It was a guide. You want to be good to people. Without religion, there are no real guardrails. I'd love to see us get back to religion, more religion in this country.”

RFK Jr. drops a series of truth bombs on Dr. Phil.
First, they scammed you on skin cancer when the sun is good for you.
Now, they're scamming you again with mammograms.
It turns out that this diagnostic procedure exposes women's breasts to a type of radiation that's known to cause cancer.
Here's the worst part: We now know that over the past 30 years, 1.3 million women have been misdiagnosed with breast cancer who actually had no chance of causing harm.
So, they were put on the treadmill, generating huge profits for Big Pharma and hospitals while being deceived into believing that the medical system had “saved” them from cancer—all while draining their wallets.
Going back to the sun, it turns out that adequate levels of Vitamin D (sunshine) reduce your risk of cancer by 50 percent!
The other remarkable thing about Vitamin D is that it decreases your risk of death from the biggest k*ller in the world: heart disease.
And here's the shocking truth about sunscreen, according to Dr. Joseph Mercola: using it increases your risk of skin cancer.
How?
Sunscreen prevents sunburn by blocking UVB rays, which are crucial for vitamin D production. But few sunscreens adequately block UVA rays, which cause most skin cancers.
So, not only are you letting the harmful rays through but you're doing so while blocking vitamin D production. Double whammy.

3 Surprising Cancer-Fighting Foods the Corrupt Medical System Will Never Promote
The cancer industry would lose billions if people knew this.
🧵 THREAD
1. Black Raspberries
Black raspberries contain ellagic acid, a natural substance that has been shown to prompt cancer cells to “commit suicide.”
This powerful cancer-fighting food is packed with anthocyanins and antioxidants, which are compounds that can neutralize harmful free radicals in the body.
They also have a very high ORAC score, meaning they are exceptionally good at absorbing oxygen radicals. “This is real medicine,” cancer nutrition specialist Dr. Patrick Quillin attests.
2. Figs
Figs contain a powerful enzyme called ficin, which is one of the more essential phytochemicals present in this fruit.
Ficin triggers apoptosis in cancer cells, eliminating them through programmed cell death.
This is the most important skill you can master. There are around 500 million new posts on 𝕏 every day. You have to think about how to make your post stand out from the rest.

Media Blackout: 10 News Stories They Chose Not to Tell You This Week
#10 - RFK Jr. vows to put an STOP chemtrails “crimes” as part of Trump administration.
Chemtrails have been repeatedly attacked as a crazy “conspiracy theory,” but anyone who has been paying attention knows that our skies have not looked the same for years.
Beautiful blue skies that we enjoyed so much in our childhood have often become hazy, littered with these long white stripes that seem to stay put, then evolve into a monstrous cloud cover that blankets the sky.
This phenomenon has a name. It has many, actually, but the most common tagline given to it is chemtrails, which is short for chemical trails.
Geoengineering expert Dane Wigington has been fighting to expose the “poisoning of our skies” for decades.
He insists, “What we’re seeing in our skies are not condensation trails… they are sprayed particulate trails.”

I watched it so you didn't have to. Here's what happened in under 5 minutes.
🧵 THREAD
Kamala Harris's first interview as the Democratic nominee just dropped, and she brought in VP pick Tim Walz to comfort her.
Remarkably, it took her less than a minute to bring up Donald Trump, claiming Americans are ready for "a new way forward" and that it’s time to "turn the page" on Trump.
What she failed to mention is that she's literally been in power for 3.5 years.
Then something remarkable happened. CNN unexpectedly asked a good question, pressing Harris on economic issues.
Bash brought up Harris's campaign slogan, "We're not going back," and asked, “I wonder what you say to voters who do want to go back when it comes to the economy, specifically because their groceries were less expensive, housing was more affordable when Donald Trump was president.”
