President Trump: If I weren't leading in the polls, or if I weren't running.. I wouldn't have any indictments, I wouldn't have anything. They'd be doing it to somebody else who was in the position, because they have developed a sickness.
>>20270598 President Trump: We're going to give police and fire, and fire too, by the way, we're going to give our policemen total immunity. If they stop a crime, they're not going to be arrested and destroyed, and their house taken away, and their family taken away. We're going to give total immunity, and we're going to stop crime in this country.
>>20270609 President Trump: Your major cities run by democrats; they walk into a department store and they walk out with televisions, and the cops aren't allowed to do anything. The police are told, 'don't do anything'. You could stop it in one day. If you met one or two of those incidents with serious force, and let everyone know that that's the serious; it would stop in twenty-four hours.
>>20270672 President Trump: [reads The Snake] When we're taking in people from prisons from all over the world. When we're taking in people from mental institutions, and insane asylums from all over the world; if you take a look at the population of mental institutions all over the world, you'll see it's way down. Some are empty, because it's all being dropped, and deposited, and dumped right into the United States. How stupid are we? And that [The Snake] is a very accurate portrayal of what's happening, but what's going to happen. There's a hundred percent chance of terror in our country…it's a hundred percent certain that terrible things are going to happen.
>>20270682, >>20270887 President Trump: To stop the deadly drugs that are poisoning our people, I will deploy the US Navy to impose a full Fentanyl blockade on the waters of our region…the drug cartels are waging war in American, and we will destroy those cartels. They're going to be destroyed.
>>20270734 President Trump: We're into Ukraine for two hundred billion dollars, and Europe is in there for about twenty billion dollars…we have to equalize. They have to put up an equal amount of money to us…Europe is going to have to put up a lot of money fast.
>>20270760 President Trump: I will also defend our great Veterans, and I will ask congress immediately to build; and I said we're gonna get it, we'll have it very quickly, its already been more or less approved, we almost had it done until we were interrupted; we will build the full-service VA Hospital in New Hampshire, right now for your Veterans. You're the only state that doesn't have it.
>>20270784 President Trump: We have to rebuild our cities, and we have to watch the crime, and we're gonna take down the crime. We will do something else that to me very important. We're going to take over the horribly run Capital of our nation in Washington, DC. We're gonna clean it up, renovate it, we're gonna build and rebuild our Capital city so that its no longer a nightmare of murder and crime…we're gonna hit them so hard. We're gonna hit them with law enforcement so hard, they'll never be doing it again.
>>20270801 President Trump: I will never allow a Central Bank Digital Currency, where they take away your money.
>>20270833 President Trump: From Manchester to Meredith, from Plymouth to Portsmouth, from Conway to Concord, you inherit the legacy of red-blooded New Hampshire Patriots, that's what you are, who live by a very, very immortal motto. Do you know what that is? Live Free Or Die.
>>20270214 President Trump: I believe we're going to have the four greatest years in the history of the country.
>>20270257 President Trump: If they would have played straight; just think of it, I'd now be getting ready to leave government. And now they've got me for four more years!
>>20270274 President Trump: Under Biden, everybody is poor. The typical family has lost over seven thousand, five hundred dollars a year, thanks to Crooked Joe's inflation.
>>20270359 President Trump: She [Clinton] lost because she had no personality. She lost for a lot of reasons.
Audience Member: She's evil!
President Trump: Well that too. She's evil; that's interesting.
>>20270445 President Trump: When you have open borders, high taxes, bad education, a woke military; and it's not woke down here, it's only woke with those few people up top that really have no clue.
>>20270500 President Trump: They go and they search for the people that are complaining about the election. They don't search for the people that rigged the election, and we know who they are. We Have It All.

Battles of Lexington and Concord
First military engagements of the American Revolutionary War (1775)
The Battles of Lexington and Concord were some of the leading military engagements of the American Revolutionary War. The battles were fought on April 19, 1775, in Middlesex County, Province of Massachusetts Bay, within the towns of Lexington, Concord, Lincoln, Menotomy (present-day Arlington), and Cambridge. They marked the outbreak of armed conflict between the Kingdom of Great Britain and Patriot militias from America's thirteen colonies.
In late 1774, Colonial leaders adopted the Suffolk Resolves in resistance to the alterations made to the Massachusetts colonial government by the British parliament following the Boston Tea Party. The colonial assembly responded by forming a Patriot provisional government known as the Massachusetts Provincial Congress and calling for local militias to train for possible hostilities. The Colonial government effectively controlled the colony outside of British-controlled Boston. In response, the British government in February 1775 declared Massachusetts to be in a state of rebellion.
About 700 British Army regulars in Boston, under Lieutenant Colonel Francis Smith, were
given secret orders to capture and destroy Colonial military supplies reportedly stored by the Massachusetts militia at Concord. Through effective intelligence gathering, Patriot leaders had received word weeks before the expedition that their supplies might be at risk and had moved most of them to other locations. On the night before the battle, warning of the British expedition had been rapidly sent from Boston to militias in the area by several riders, including Paul Revere and Samuel Prescott, with information about British plans. The initial mode of the Army's arrival by water was signaled from the Old North Church in Boston to Charlestown using lanterns to communicate "one if by land, two if by sea".
The first shots were fired just as the sun was rising at Lexington. Eight militiamen were killed, including Ensign Robert Munroe, their third in command. The British suffered only one casualty. The militia was outnumbered and fell back, and the regulars proceeded on to Concord, where they broke apart into companies to search for the supplies. At the North Bridge in Concord, approximately 400 militiamen engaged 100 regulars from three companies of the King's troops at about 11:00 am, resulting in casualties on both sides. The outnumbered regulars fell back from the bridge and rejoined the main body of British forces in Concord.
The British forces began their return march to Boston after completing their search for military supplies, and more militiamen continued to arrive from the neighboring towns. Gunfire erupted again between the two sides and continued throughout the day as the regulars marched back towards Boston. Upon returning to Lexington, Lt. Col. Smith's expedition was rescued by reinforcements under Brigadier General Hugh Percy, a future Duke of Northumberland styled at this time by the courtesy title Earl Percy. The combined force of about 1,700 men marched back to Boston under heavy fire in a tactical withdrawal and eventually reached the safety of Charlestown. The accumulated militias then blockaded the narrow land accesses to Charlestown and Boston, starting the siege of Boston.
Ralph Waldo Emerson describes the first shot fired by the Patriots at the North Bridge in his "Concord Hymn" as the "shot heard round the world".
