[00:00:30]Some were good, some were great, some were terrible, but that's the way life goes, right? And you notice the roses, this is a rose garden and we added a lot of roses, I will tell you. This was This was a rose garden that didn't have too many roses and if you look now we we cornered the market on roses.

[00:00:50]And you deserve them. So, thank you for being with us in this beautiful spring, this gorgeous spring day, the very famous rose garden. It's been famous for a long time. They They let it get a little bit out of control.

[00:01:05]But now it's uh brought back to the highest level and you know, where you're standing or sitting right now is white stone.

[00:01:13]And that was grass and the problem with it is you couldn't walk on it cuz this is built on a wetland and the grass was always soaking wet. It didn't matter.

[00:01:21]It was always soaking wet, absolutely.

[00:01:24]And so when Brooke Rollins would get up and start making a magnificent speech and she'd be standing in mud and she'd say, "I ruined my shoes." Her speeches would never be as good as they could have been cuz she was always concerned about ruining her shoes. But people would come here, women would come with a high heels and it wasn't a pretty picture. So, after about 150 years, we gave up in the grass and we said, "Let's build it so we can use it." And now we have lunches here, we have dinners here and it's nice and it's cool. The white reflects the sun so you don't Although it does go in my eye right now, I noticed. I didn't I didn't anticipate that, but it's it's a great place. It's a great place, and we do news conferences, we do everything. And right up here, you probably noticed the new black granite.

[00:02:13]And it's it's been so well received.

[00:02:16]People can't even believe it cuz the stones were all broken and really in bad disrepair.

[00:02:22]And it's be it's really become great.

[00:02:24]And we added the pictures of the presidents from George Washington to a guy named Trump. And people really they've loved it. We call it the presidential wall of fame or walk of fame. We say you could call it either. Do you like walk or wall? Ready? Walk Presidential Walk of Fame.

[00:02:52]It's the same. I would call that I would call that a tie. But I want to thank you all for being here. It's amazing the weekend we celebrate Mother's Day honoring the women who raised us and all of the wonderful mothers in our lives.

[00:03:06]So millions of American families, Sunday will be filled with love and gratitude and joy. Great I had a great mother, by the way.

[00:03:15]And today we're honored to be joined by many strong and truly heroic moms who have stood up for their children both in life and in a very profound loss. Very very terrible in many just terrible loss many cases. And we have a lot of the greatest people on Earth, angel moms that with us today. They're great people. They've been through so much and I got to know so many of you during my first during my first days of running. I got to know you and I got to love you.

[00:03:50]But we want to thank you for being here.

[00:03:52]Mother's Day, it's one of the great days. I always think so fondly of my mother. I had a wonderful mother. Among those with us this afternoon are a number of the Angel Moms who saw their precious children stolen from them by the open border policies of the radical left. Open borders, I call them stupid borders, not open. I call them stupid borders.

[00:04:17]And the migrant criminals that let They let them pour into our country and bad things happened. Bad things happened.

[00:04:26]25 million people came into our country.

[00:04:29]Many of them were criminals. Many of them were murderers. They allowed them in with their open border policy of stupidity. These incredibly brave and resilient women have turned terrible tragedy into unyielding resolve, becoming advocates so that their mothers do not have to endure the same heartache that they've felt.

[00:04:50]All their lives, they've felt for so long.

[00:04:53]They've raised the most beautiful child that is taken and they've spent so many years, in many cases. I see some of you for I've known you for years and others are unfortunately new members of that club.

[00:05:06]And I say unfortunately, it's a sad thing. Should have never happened.

[00:05:11]Should have never happened.
