39% : "This department will not rest until we have ended the fentanyl epidemic in America once and for all," Trump said.
34% : Trump emphasized "law and order," though he once again carved out an exception for "J6 hostages."
31% : Flanked by "fighting fentanyl" signs and a stack of faux packages of the illicit drug, Trump said that in the first two months of his administration, FBI and Drug Enforcement Administration officers had seized "nearly 1 million deadly doses" of fentanyl.
31% : Opponents of the death penalty have said Trump's vision for it is at odds with legal precedents, so it remains unclear how successful he will be in fulfilling it.
26% : Trump and his attorney general, Pam Bondi, who spoke right before him, both recognized two mothers in the audience who lost their children to fentanyl, praised immigration hawk and deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller, and cheered on the administration's aggressive deportation operations.
24% : Smith was forced to drop both cases against Trump after he won reelection.
22% : Before Trump took the stage, newly confirmed Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said that in the last two months, DOJ prosecutors across the country have brought criminal cases against more than 6,600 illegal immigrants, nearly half of which were in Arizona.
18% : "We must be honest about the lies and abuses that have occurred within these walls," Trump said.
14% : Trump named former special counsel Jack Smith, New York Attorney General Letitia James, and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, among others, calling them corrupt and "thugs" and vowing "accountability" for their unspecified alleged crimes.
4% : Trump said the classified documents case against him "was bulls***" and claimed prominent liberal attorney Norm Eisen, who has been leading numerous lawsuits against Trump's executive actions, was "vicious and violent." "He's been after me for nine years," Trump said of Eisen, who helped lead Democrats' first impeachment case against Trump.
4% : Trump also chided the media and said CNN and MSNBC "write 97.6% bad" about him and do "illegal" work, a remark that comes as part of his intensifying battle with media outlets whose coverage Trump has disagreed with.
