We've got to get smarter and there is no better professors than the ladies on the view to teach us about the eclipse of the solar eclipse that was taking place. Rob, if you could be kind enough to play this clip because she's educating us that even Whoopi almost walked out. But can you warn our viewers though? You might actually get dumber. Like your brain might hurt. Well, Vinny, don't say that. I mean, mean listen for some of you guys that are watching this just you know

Starting point is 00:06:07 Vinny's trying to give you some kind of a disclaimer Just watch it with an open mind like maybe you could learn something watch it with an open mind go ahead go ahead Rob We've got a solar eclipse We've got my way ran down the hallway the Raptors here is here And then also I learned that the cicadas are coming Times are coming the good first time Every 17 years this happened

Starting point is 00:06:45 Watch Adam No, every 17 years this happens. Why do we do that? Watch it, watch it, watch. Adam. Sorry. All those things together, what maybe lead one to believe that either climate change exists or something is returning. That's quite so not at the mercy of climate change. It's on the ground. No, you know what? It happens.

Starting point is 00:07:03 Here's what I will tell you. The eclipse, they've known about the eclipse. If you think about it, if you want to pause us with the cicada, right, you know, every time we're together, if you think about it, it'd never be the same, okay? If you're not here, how can you stay away? How can you stay away so long? Why can't we stay together. Just give me a reason, give me a reason.

Starting point is 00:07:29 Cause I, I don't wanna say, I don't wanna find another way to make it through the day without the view. Right? It's just to make it through the day. By the. Right? It's just to make another day. By the way, we're officially fired, but listen, the cicadas, the cicadas are coming. The cicadas on the views. If you watch the, listen, if she helped people download just another day, another hundred thousand people download it.

Starting point is 00:08:00 I think that's a great song. I applaud her for doing that, but wanted to make sure we start off the podcast today with some education folks, that the cicadas and the cicadas are coming and it may be linked to climate change if you're watching the view. Tom, do you want to add a little bit of fact check here with this? If you, if you can help us out a little bit with the cicada, cicada, you know, it's really interesting. I've never seen a Nobel prize winner on The View, and now I think I understand why. It's like, this is different. No, there's cyclical things that happen naturally,

Starting point is 00:08:32 and cicadas, which is like a flock of lotus. Cicada, but I mean, that's what you're gonna know there. Bugs, you know, it's like a red tide. Every now and then you see at the beach, you see red tides, you have these algae blooms and stuff and a bunch of fish die Everything doesn't lead back to climate change you right? It's the you don't know though You don't know you can't make a comment like that responsible comment, maybe

Starting point is 00:08:58 Cuz it's a seasonal thing Tom cuz John Cicada is gonna come back Well, if John's gonna go back on tour, maybe he comes back every 17 years and goes on tour. As opposed to a flock of bugs that just blooms up. First of all, I know you guys, you know, you guys, I hope you're not making fun of John Cicada. No, what do you mean? That song to me is a sick song. You're like somebody today's going to go up to me like John, they're singing the song. No, listen. DVD podcast. Of course, by the way

Starting point is 00:09:25 I guarantee some people right now. Can I get the song can you imagine they're at work? Are you singing Johnson? I am I'm so sorry Can I just fact-check Tom for a second just about the second? Yeah, you sure Yeah, I mean it dates back to 1961 is what happened. It was actually the cicadas. It was a aggregation company in Cuba of all places really and for Socio-economic political reasons they emigrated to Miami, Florida of all places the cicadas. It was a big family Exactly, and then you've been family what happened was they started growing up there. They started raising their people there

Starting point is 00:10:04 Yeah, they actually started studying it at Hialeah High School, which then turned into University. Okay now we're gonna go into the story This is actually John Cicada's bio We grew up in Miami Did he really grow up in Miami? Yes, he grew up in Miami with the Hialeah High By the way, how old is John Cicada? John Cicada was born in 1961 Okay, so he's 63 years old? Wow, there's no way he's 63.

Starting point is 00:10:27 He was born in Havana. How many? He was old when I was young. Good looking guy right there, man. John, wherever you are, shout out to you. Your song at least increased the US population by a million people. And his family was known as The Swarm. So it's like- Got it. He's a Miami guy.

Starting point is 00:10:42 Highly high, University of Miami. Big, big, big solar eclipse guy. Big solar eclipse guy. But anyways, okay, so since we're on the Florida topic, let's talk about some Florida stuff, especially with Miami. House Democrats push to rename Miami federal prison after Trump. Now, this is Adam's favorite story. So I'm going to come to you first, Adam, to see where you can educate us here with this. House Democrats introduced legislation proposing to rename the Miami Federal Correctional Institution

Starting point is 00:11:09 in Florida as the Donald J. Trump Federal Correctional Institution, contrasting with a Republican proposal to rename Washington Dulles International Airport after the president. Representative Jerry Connolly emphasized the symbolism, stating, when our Republican colleagues introduced their bill to rename Dulles after Donald Trump, I said the more fitting option would be to rename a federal prison. The bill's sponsor includes Rep. Jared Moskovitz and John Germandy. Amid Trump's legal challenges, including indictments and four separate prosecutions, Democrats aim to rename the prison near Mar-a-Lago with Representative Jermandy

Starting point is 00:11:45 stating, I cannot think of a more fitting tribute. Adam? Well, this is one big trolling story that I don't think any of this is happening, but full disclosure as somebody that in college spent 24 hours in this prison for what shit went down in college. Okay went down for a fight Not not never want to go back there put it this way whether it's Trump prison or the current name of the of the prison If they do name it Trump prison, I think Trump will go in there and say we need to remodel the entire place a nice

Starting point is 00:12:23 Yeah, gold bars, can you imagine? Beautiful bars, can you imagine? Beautiful prison, you've never done this before. But this started with Republicans trolling Democrats trying to change Dulles International, which is, there's two airports in DC, there's Reagan and Dulles, named after Alan Dulles there's two there's two airports in DC there's Reagan and Dulles named after Alan Dulles the CIA weird weird guy so this is their retribution for Trump but none of this is happening no names are being changed this is all trolling but if you actually want to get serious for a second to my democratic friends you know how they

Starting point is 00:13:03 say fuck around and find out yeah well. Well, the Democrats fucked around and find out. And what happened was the Santos was elected in 2022. And it was the largest margin of victory in 40 years for a governor. So and Miami Dade, which traditionally votes blue, was plus 11 for the Republicans. Okay. No, so never gone blue. Just under great leadership by our good and great friend. There you go. Mayor Suarez. Well, obviously Mayor Suarez is the freaking man. But the reality is this trolling thing isn't going to happen. So let's go to the next story. Got it. So this is a story we just with Miami Trump. We'll see what's going to happen there. All right next story

Starting point is 00:13:45 I'm gonna get in talking to talk about what Jamie diamond brought up Tom. So be ready for this one here actually Well, let's go to the 99 cent story only 99 cent only stores close all 371 locations over inflation and theft. Okay, and keep in mind again My dad was a cashier at a 99-cent store in Inglewood, California, right next to Great Western Forum for 15 years. After more than four decades in business, this county retail chain, 99-cent only, will be shuttering all of its 371 stores across four states, citing unmanageable inflation

Starting point is 00:14:22 and theft. According to company executives, the recent failure of 99 cent only can be traced back to a variety of factors, including lingering effects of the COVID lockdowns, as well as the struggling national economy and the explosion of retail theft. In industry terms, shrink refers to inventory lost to shoplifting. This is a different shrinkage that takes place. Fraud or administrative errors. In recent years, rates of retail theft, particularly in the form of flash mob robberies, have skyrocketed,

Starting point is 00:14:54 costing major corporations millions of dollars per year. For example, in 2022, New York City retailers lost a combined total, damn, Tom damn Tom 4.4 billion dollars to theft and Similar trends were reflected in almost every major city in the country, so I want you to think about this Rob Can you go to an inflation calculator? Okay, if you go type in? The company just go to 99 cent only Wikipedia if you could go to 99 cent only Wikipedia if you go to the Wikipedia, they got started in what year? I think it's 1982, right there, you see it, it's right there, Rob.

Starting point is 00:15:30 Yeah, zoom in, 1982, they got started. Okay, so they got started in 1982, and imagine these guys with ideas, they come up and they say, hey, Vinny, Tom, Adam, Rob, and everybody else listening here, I got an idea. What if we start a concept when we name our company? 99 cent only which means all the products that we sell will be under 99 cents guy. What a great idea. Okay now did somebody ever ask how long this concept could work

Starting point is 00:15:59 Because of this thing called inflation. Do you know what 99 cents in 1982 is today? Look at that right there, Vinny. $3.18. So the margins are going to keep getting lower and lower and lower and lower and lower. And now they came up with a new concept, which is what? What's the other one now? Five below, dollar tree. Five below. Dollar tree and stuff are still around. Yeah. They're going to do their best to be around, because some of these products they're buying, they're buying it for 10 cents.

Starting point is 00:16:27 So even if it's more than 3X, it's 30 cents. So there's still a margin of 70 cents in it, but it's just a matter of time before this kind of a concept goes out of business. It's not sustainable, and it's quite frankly a very challenging business with all the small little things you've got to buy and the theft and all this stuff. My dad, you know how many times my dad was held up at the 99 cents store when he was, but anyways, the point being, inflation is going to put this business model out of business but for a trend, a period, it could definitely work.

Starting point is 00:16:55 Look at this here, by the way. Five Below operates 1,400 stores in 44 states, employing over 90,000 associates with two distribution centers. That's as of 2020, okay? 14, 1500 employees that they have. This is the five below. This will still be around for a couple more decades, a few more decades, but eventually inflation is going to put all these guys down.

Starting point is 00:17:16 But it sucks because once Biden came in, no joke, every dollar store went to $1.25. Every price changed. You know what I mean? And think about the people that, like, you know, you know the neighbor that lived in North Hollywood but it was kind of ghetto that place was packed with people that didn't have enough like what are those people gonna do now you know I mean they got to go spend for something that was 99 cents they're gonna go spend four dollars five dollars for something at Rausser or another supermarket. Tom what do you say about what

Starting point is 00:17:39 what are your thoughts on this? Well once I was really upset to see this because once again bad policies have consequences and the consequences usually lands right on the middle class of America or people that are using this. These stores are providing you know access to goods in their community and there's 371 of these stores there that are providing low-cost options to consumers who need them and there's three things here. Inflation is absolutely correct, as PBD was talking about.

Starting point is 00:18:07 But the first thing that happened when we went to lockdown, you're not getting deliveries from 99-cent stores. When you go to lockdown, you hurt the people that had jobs at those stores, you hurt the owner of the stores, and then you turn the page and you go over what happened with inflation and then with what started with the uh you know the riots that happened and concurrent with COVID you you then had this cities blue cities i'm talking to you who didn't enforce you know uh the you know proper law and order and these mobs who come in and rob stores We saw CVS people coming in with these giant shopping bags just sweeping stuff off the shelves It happened in 99 cent stores

Starting point is 00:18:49 So when they're that and by the way the number PBD said it was four point four billion that was lost the flash mobs in New York City, just New York City total though total in all stores. Yeah in New York City Yeah, but I'm saying if it's four point four billion in New York City In all stores? Yeah, in New York City. Yeah. What I'm saying, if it's $4.4 billion in New York City, imagine what it is to the 99-cent store across all these states. And so 99-cent store didn't go out of business because there's not a consumer.

Starting point is 00:19:13 It didn't go out of business because it was not a good idea. It went out of business because they suffered shrinkage, which was policies of the cities not defending them. And then they had to hire security guards, and they got to put gates up and they have to all these things that increases cost they were run out of business by bad policies by America and by the way how many you know how many people in the community my dad worked at a 90 as a 99 cent store loved my dad you know how many didn't work okay David hey David one time I'm giving a talk Tom in

Starting point is 00:19:51 Granada Hills at the office and a lady comes and I'm telling the story my dad You know, I retired him 99 cents store, you know, Inglewood right next to Great Western Forum all this stuff The lady's like is your daddy's name David? I say yeah my daddy's can you show me a picture of his? I showed a picture of my dad to this lady in the speech. I'm given. It's like 40 people in audience I'm selling the business and like 40 people in the audience. I'm selling the business. And she says, we haven't seen him for a while. We love your dad. Everybody in the community needs to come in and buy their stuff and do their things.

Starting point is 00:20:15 But unfortunately, part of it is inflation, part of it is bad policies, part of it is the fact that these businesses no longer feel safe being in these communities. You don't need a 99 cent only store in Beverly Hills or in Highland Park or in whatever the richest parts of Miami or Palm Beach. The communities that need these types of stores need to protect them to make sure they can be profitable so they don't shut down. So whoever is upset that they're shutting down is because without profit, these guys cannot stick around. You want your businesses around you to make money or else they go out of business.

Starting point is 00:20:49 Go ahead, Adam. Well, the thing that I want to focus on is the theft and the robbery. You've told the story about how your father was stuck up. How many times? Many, many times. He wouldn't give the money. He would take out the Bible. Wow.

Starting point is 00:21:00 So funny. Talk to him when you go home today. I will. So you know how I say follow the money. I mean the famous quote, like when you're broke, you're desperate, you're desperate when you go home. I am well, so you know how I say follow the money I mean the famous quote like when you're broke, you're desperate you're desperate. You're stupid These these these we have a 99 cent store, you know right over here. Well, not anymore. Well, There's they close out on four different states. I think california new york. I don't know the other two states but just think about how desperate you have to be to rob a 99 cent store. Yeah, how much

Starting point is 00:21:23 money is actually in the cash register? $200, $300, something that got 10 grand sitting in there. The average bill is probably 10 bucks. So you're talking about poor people or people that are really thrifty, trying to save that money, who are just trying to get goods at low priced items. And then there's some idiot comes in,

Starting point is 00:21:44 robs the whole thing, ruins it for everybody. But again, the bad policies have these. By the way, let me tell you a crazy number. You ready? In 2017, what do you think 99 cent only's top line revenue was? You're saying there's not a lot of money in it. In 2017, what do you think was 99 cent? They didn't have a couple hundred dollars.

Starting point is 00:22:02 By the way, they made a lot of money. No, across a thousand stores. For sure. Each store is in printing money. But here, we'll do the math right now. Let's take a thousand stores. What do you think their top line revenue was? For all companies?

Starting point is 00:22:14 Top line revenue, 99 cent only in 2017. In 2017. Two billion. Rob, can you just type in 99 cent only revenue? I don't want to Was that right? I was gonna say a billion bucks. Okay, two billion dollars was their revenue top, okay? Yeah, now check this out the number of its two billion and sixty million dollars. You know what their net income was in 2017 a 118 million dollars Tom in net income. 5%. That may sound like a big number ladies and gentlemen, that's 5%.

Starting point is 00:22:49 5.8% right? So you're making $118 million dollars in profits. Now take the 2 billion and divide it by a thousand stores. Is that how many stores there are? Whatever the number is. If we look at how many stores they got, let me look at this here, so 2 billion, at this point when they closed down, they had how many? 371 locations?

Starting point is 00:23:07 In four states though. Okay, so let's do 2 billion. Probably more than a thousand states. Well, America doesn't have more than a thousand states, but it only has 50 states. Now this becomes the view. So go read the cicadas on how many states we have in America. If you take 2 billion and you divided by a thousand Stores, it's 2 million year per million year. Yeah, that's still a hundred sixty six thousand dollars a month

Starting point is 00:23:32 That's a hundred sixty six thousand dollars a month. That's still that's still fifty five hundred dollars a day That's still like that's just another day just another day without you Adam But okay, so now this also leads me to what's going on in another city town not just New York but we got to go to to San Francisco Bay and see what's going on with them watch this I want you to think about this policy how crazy is this San Francisco proposal would allow lawsuits over grocery store closures. San Francisco supervisor Dean Preston unveiled the Grocery Protection Act requiring grocery stores to provide six months written notice before closure. Who the hell are

Starting point is 00:24:17 you? For me to have to tell you if I'm closing down or not, backed by a 1984 proposal vetoed by then mayor Dianne Feinstein, Preston emphasized the necessity of community input, stating our communities need notice, an opportunity to be heard, and a transition plan. How about you protect that business before they have to tell you what's going on? The proposed legislation outlines exceptions for unforeseen circumstances such as natural disasters but mandates practical notice and collaboration with neighborhood residents and the Office of Economic and Work

Starting point is 00:24:50 Force Development to explore alternatives amidst rising store closures in San Francisco, exemplified by Whole Foods location with 568 emergency calls in 13 months and a Safeway store. That is insane Tom. Face Enclosure, the Grocery Protection Act seeks to address broader challenges emphasizing the need for sustainable solutions amidst community concerns. Tom? Well first of all, let's do some math here.

Starting point is 00:25:17 568 emergency calls in 13 months. 13 times 30 days is, oh my gosh, 390 days. And let's see, so that's basically, we're coming up on one and a half emergency calls a day. 568, think about it folks, think about this. What if Mike Tyson said this, I wanna fight longer. If I knock you out in the second round, I'm suing you because I wanted to fight longer. and so you have San Francisco policies and

Starting point is 00:25:49 Refusing to by the way, this is also the grocery stores and CVS is what we're just talking about You can find any number of videos watching people coming in to resume giant bags just sweeping stuff off the shelves Sweeping it off the shelves and to the point. And then the CVS people, they told their employees, don't touch them, don't bother them, don't get in a fight. Maybe they have a knife, don't get hurt. Just let them do it. So now, after all this is happening, and it's so bad, the public policy, now you say, listen,

Starting point is 00:26:21 I'm going out of business, I have to close. So in other words words policy knocks out the business owner now they're gonna sue the business owner for being knocked out that's what we're looking at here and really here's the problem they are trying to find someone to blame the bottom line is the liberal freaks that are running government there are looking for someone to blame oh they're greedy so they're closing stores. Wait a minute That's not how greed works greed works. I want to scale the business. I want more stores in more neighborhoods I want to beat the other guy. I want to win and I want to make profit

Starting point is 00:26:55 That's how greed works. So when them saying Oh greenie business owners are closing stores We'll give the community the right to sue them Really? How does this work? This is insanity. Yeah, so to me, I think about it from a couple of different standpoints. I'll say this. Tom, what is the law in San Francisco for theft?

Starting point is 00:27:17 Under a thousand dollars? You're scot-free. They've moved it, but yes. I'm going minimum a thousand. Right yes. They go high. I'm going minimum, a thousand. Right there. Here we go. If the value of the item is more than 9.50, then it is grand theft. Grand theft is a felony.

Starting point is 00:27:34 Petty theft, if the value of the item is 9.50 or lower, then it's called petty theft. Petty theft is a misdemeanor. But what I'm trying to say is, in San Francisco, so what happens? If I go to a store and I rob and I leave, what happens to me? Do they just let me go? Well, when you have Gavin Newsom and them telling people, listen, don't stop these people or you're going to get in trouble.

Starting point is 00:27:55 Because by the way, a 950, what are they stopping you and going, wait a minute, like a receipt checker at Walmart? How the hell can you gauge? They were not arresting people. They were not arresting people. They weren't prosecuting. And then remember Tommy they were like don't don't touch them don't try to get involved with them and and you nailed it Tom it's going to the leadership these are the voters so then so then if that's the case yeah I would say you want to entertain a something like

Starting point is 00:28:17 this here's what we could do we help us make more profit Help us at our numbers Okay, and the way you could do that is to make sure you protect people from feeling safe when they come here Rob You can pull up one of the videos how people are have chains around a freaking 7-eleven store in San Francisco. This is a few months ago. By the way change. Do you have to look at this Rob? I'm gonna send this to you Rob if you can play this okay If if a business is making money and they feel safe and the customers feel safe to go there, guess what? No problem.

Starting point is 00:28:51 We'll definitely tell you when we're going out of business. We'll announce it to you six months before, okay? Then what you could do is you could potentially have some kind of an update that's happening. Hey, we're thinking about shutting down and we're going to do, and most businesses anyways give a six month update. Like, Hey, we're going through a sale process right now. We're probably going to be shutting down Q4 of next year or Q4 of this year. You got nine months, you got six months to know about it. But if they're able to give me protection where I'm making profit, I have no problem with it. Watch this, Rob. Play this clip on what's going on in San Francisco to see how ugly and nasty it is.

Starting point is 00:29:24 This is is recent? No, this is eight months ago. Watch this. Can you put the audio? Because it's just news. You can play the audio. Watch this. ...Boulevard and 17th Avenue in San Francisco... Adam Nylund. ...witnessed multiple shoplifters. One of them even took the time to explain why he simply didn't pay. Nice guy.

Starting point is 00:29:42 San Francisco, bro. Off-can I... San Francisco, bro. ...you told me they're hit anywhere between 15 to 20 times a day. explain why he simply didn't pay. Nice guy. This is San Francisco, bro. You told me they're hit anywhere between 15 to 20 times a day. Out of frustration, a week and a half ago, they decided to chain up their freezer section. You're locking up ice cream? This is one of the hardest hit areas in their store.

Starting point is 00:29:58 Are you kidding me? Now, when you want something, you have to press this button. A message goes off on the overhead speaker, and an employee comes to unlock the freezer. According to the employee who's... Are you kidding me? This is San Francisco folks, eight months ago. They can't challenge shoplifters. I mean I'm pretty sure they're still happening. But you think they stopped? You think they stopped? Here's my question, I know incentivizing, they incentivize bad behavior, but can you explain to me just in layman terms, as the politician, as the mayor, as the people

Starting point is 00:30:25 that are running San Francisco, defunding the police and making a $950, why are you doing that? You want this to happen. Why? I'm confused. Do you want people just to go on Amazon and do these big corporation buys? Because they're killing these companies. They're killing the small mom and pop shots.

Starting point is 00:30:44 It's like it's a coordinated effort. This isn't, guys, this isn't by accident, Tom. This is by design. Yeah, this is income redistribution, number one. This is also the city trying to, you know, reduce its welfare expense by actually, you move the consequence off to $950. You do not enforce arrests to people for misdemeanors and basically what you have is income redistribution where corporate America is basically basically providing food stamps and things for people to just want them to take it. Unfortunately if you take a look at it you know that you've got high

Starting point is 00:31:18 dollar items and alcohol and things that are being stolen and so the question really is you know all they have to do is move the law back down move it back down to 250 bucks that it's grant that for 250 bucks number one number two you take and you put officers you don't need a squad of officers and a police dog you need one guy you need one guy you know at you know various stores at various stores to provide deterrent. And then because otherwise, if you tell the store, you have to live with the shrinkage and you have to hire it, there's also lawsuits. Let's say Pat's dad was working in San Francisco at a store and he reaches out and he tells

Starting point is 00:31:57 somebody don't steal that and then he gets injured. Then he sues his employer and said, you didn't provide security and protection for me and a robber that you know is coming in every day hurt me. So that's why they tell their employees don't interfere and get yourself hurt because they don't want to get sued. And so the city knows it and understands this that the path to solution here is actually not difficult but the city especially... So Tom, this is what it makes me the city especially this is what it makes me think about Here's what it makes me think I'm gonna do it. Yeah, it makes me think about this. I wrote a few things down So they're either doing this

Starting point is 00:32:32 You know because they want the vote and to keep the vote you have to make sure you keep the poor poor There's a lot of power and keeping the poor poor Adam. You're good. I'm coloring. Sorry about that Yeah, there's power and keeping the poor poor. There's a lot of power in keeping the poor poor. There's a lot of power in keeping the uneducated uneducated. What was the most powerful thing about the movie Book of Eli? What was it? With this one book, I can control the world, right? With this one book. And he was one of the only guys that knew how to read. What do you got to do? You don't want to teach other people how to read. That was the way a lot of envious people that are driven by power and force Do I don't want to keep you poor keep you dumb keep you uneducated one time one of my friends

Starting point is 00:33:14 Called me says hey Pat I know you're all about recommending books to your employees and all these guys But some of these guys are starting to question some of the things that we're doing that we can do it better, man I'm thinking about no longer letting my guys read books. I said that's the whole idea. You want your guys to be reading books because you want them to develop and be thinking in a different way. So one, they're either wanting these communities to be able to get away with this because they

Starting point is 00:33:35 keep their vote. Number two, they want to destroy these cities so people leave. Number three, they hate success and they're envious of anybody with wealth and success. Those three are the ones. Or they're just terrible leaders and they're dumb. So we have to pick and choose. Which of those four is it?

Starting point is 00:33:53 I don't think it's the dumb one. You think they want to keep the vote? I think absolutely. You think they want to destroy the people because they want them to leave to other cities? Or do you think they hate success and they're envious of people with wealth? I think number one would be my number one. One and three. Okay, well guess what happens with one and three're envious of people with wealth? I think number one would be my number one. One and three. Okay, well guess what happens with one and three?

Starting point is 00:34:07 Here's what happens with one and three. The same way the 99 cent store model has a lifespan because eventually you, and forget about it, it's Biden's fault, it's none of that, I'm not talking about that. Under any administration, that model that's tied, if the brand is tied to a number, you're eventually not going to succeed, right? Eventually the people that you keep poor, you know what happens to a couple of them? A couple of them realize how dirty you are and what do they do? They revolt against you, okay? That happens in movies, that happens with many different things. And number three, you hate success and wealthy people?

Starting point is 00:34:45 Guess what? They are never ever losing any opportunities of going to another company, another country, another state. People are always looking for great businesses. So those tours are going to destroy a city and then eventually they're going to be like, what happened to San Francisco? You know, we used to be like the greatest city in the world, but bad policies drove a lot of great people out. And by the way, here's what's even weird about this. If Adam, you got anything you want to add to this? So Dave Chappelle actually said it best.

Starting point is 00:35:15 So Dave Chappelle is killing me softly. It was in 1999. I'll sum it up real quick. He tells a story about he's doing standup and A limo driver picks him up and limo drivers all cool. He's like hey man. Where you from DC? Yeah, man DC cool Alright cool. Yeah, what you doing in town? Yeah, do a comedy show and he gets a phone call. He's like Say what? Hold up. He did what I'm on my way and all of a sudden starts driving off and Dave Chappelle just in in the back of the limo and he goes, I just look around and I see gun store, liquor store, liquor store, gun store, where the fuck are you taking me?

Starting point is 00:35:51 And he realized, oh shit, he's going to the hood. And amazing, amazing thing from Dave Chappelle. But the point is this, it comes down to three things, supply and demand, investing and divesting. I'm still trying to find out what purpose of that story. So the point is this, when you start eliminating necessary corporations and stores from the communities that need it most, the 99 cent store example we just talked about for 10 minutes, who needs it most? The poor people.

Starting point is 00:36:23 Of course. You just had a cicada moment. Cicada? C Of course. You just had a cicada moment. Yes. Cicada? Cicada. Cicada, cicada moment. But by the way- We talk about the San Francisco stores that are closing grocery stores. People need decent food. Yeah. They don't eat at Cricken, Burger King, and McDonald's and shitty stores every single day. Chick-fil-A, shout out to that. Walgreens, we did a story about two months ago. Ariana Presley was the Congresswoman in Boston slamming Walgreens for shutting down because everything was getting robbed.

Starting point is 00:36:51 The point is these bad policies have consequences, whether it's a 99 cent store, whether it's a grocery store, whether it's a Walgreens and a pharmacy, with law and order, these stores will leave. Short answer. So for what it's worth, Rob, for what it's worth Rob for what it's worth I think it's a perfect time to transition to this is it Thursday or Wednesday night Thursday Thursday Thursday night by the way I want you got Adams gonna be Adam has an on comedy for a while Thursday night at the Miami improv 8 p.m. but show

Starting point is 00:37:21 up a little bit early on headlining Vinny is headlining Vinny's headlining, but Adam's gonna open No, I am wanting to listen show up. Rob is gonna be there as well I think Adam is testing his comedy right now. This is the value table and takeover is gonna be at the end of the vlog Let's put the link below. Well, let's continue We are we are all every one of us is limited. What do they say in in golf mulligan? What is one mulligan you get one one cicada per one cicada per per podcast? All right, all of us only have one cicada. So you don't have any more cicadas Adams got a great act. It's up tries to describe the economy. Where's that shot? All right next

Starting point is 00:37:59 Let's go to the next one, which is kind of weird in the same place San Francisco Technology is the villain. California assemblyman says about his right to disconnect bill, new proposed legislation could make employees less accessible to their bosses after hours, leaving them free to enjoy their time outside. Of work, assembly member Matt Haney, Democrat, San Francisco, introduced on Monday assembly bill 2571, which, if passed, would

Starting point is 00:38:26 make California the first state to guarantee workers a right to disconnect, eliminating the pressure to respond to calls, emails, and texts outside of working hours. The entire concept resonated with what I've seen during and after the pandemic, when the lines between when we're working and you're not have become so blurred that for many people, they have never have time to switch off, Haney said, with smartphones, obscuring with boundaries between work and home life, Haney affirmed, if there had to be a villain in the story, it's the technology, not the boss.

Starting point is 00:38:57 Okay, so anyway, so capitalists are, can you imagine this guy lives in San Francisco, tax money, most of it's coming from where? All these Silicon Valley companies that are startups, that are behemoth companies that generate a lot of jobs. It looks good for these guys, but no, no, no. Guess what? These startups, you know all these great startups were only built by people that work nine to five.

Starting point is 00:39:19 You know that, right? Great startups never happen because after five o'clock, they shut it down. They all take two hour breaks lunchtime, okay? They come in nine o'clock but so what if they come in at 945 there's nothing wrong with that. No. Some of the greatest companies in the world, all these trillion dollar companies were founded by people who only work from nine to five with a two hour lunch break.

Starting point is 00:39:37 This guy's brilliant. Got to give this guy credit. Tom, any thoughts on this brilliant guy right here that wants people to, you know, not have people communicate with them after hours Anyway, a symbol meant heiny here. I think it's got it all wrong Wait, I'm sorry. That was Haney. I called them heiny. Well, he's a complete ass. Maybe that makes sense The I think when you sit back there and you try to cross, you know the lines here somewhere between You know an intention about

Starting point is 00:40:08 work-life balance and reality. This guy is too bong-hit short of logic because he's sitting there saying to himself, oh, I want to help people that the whole problem is people need work-life balance. Well, then have a different job. Take a job that doesn't require you to do that. There's plenty of jobs, maybe government jobs. Be a cop. When you're off duty, you're off duty.

Starting point is 00:40:32 You've set your gun aside and you don't work. Maybe find a job like that. But meanwhile, other people have thriving careers and things are going because guess what? Life can be, things happen after hours, servers stop after hours, and if you're in IT, you fix it. And guess what? You get a bonus because you're really good at it. So there's something to be said for work-life balance, there's something to be said for, you know, technology limits and things like on kids so that they

Starting point is 00:40:58 don't just, you know, vegetate and skip homework and stuff. But this guy's gonna put a bill in place that basically impacts the availability of workers in their free time. Number one, this doesn't work, and number two, this is just completely wrong-headed. Vinny, thoughts on this? I don't know how, I just compare with whatever Tom said. I agree 100%. After Tom's heinie joke, I think we gotta put him up on Thursday night. Thursday night?

Starting point is 00:41:23 I wanna audition, I wanna get there., let me tell you what happened here. I was watching a video of, what do you call it, what's his name? Pat McAfee. And he's sharing on the Adam Schaeffer, which I don't know if you know who Adam Schaeffer is. Of course, Adam Schaeffer. Schaeffer is phenomenal. NFL.

Starting point is 00:41:43 Yeah, NFL. Phenomenal. He's a guy that when you watch him, it's incredible on What he says what he does. I just really like the way he gives his commentary He says he shows the business card that Jim Harbaugh Passed down from Harbaugh's father Jack on what the rules are. These are the rules we follow So if you type in Rob Jim Har Harbaugh, rules for life, business card, okay? These are the rules for life, business card. Let me read them to you.

Starting point is 00:42:10 By the way, this family raises studs. Studs. It doesn't matter which son it is, they're all studs. Maybe the father knows how to raise leaders. So Mr. Haney, out of San Francisco, let me read you his father's values that he shared. Let me read them to you. Ready? Let's go through a couple of them here together.

Starting point is 00:42:32 Let's go through a couple of them here together. Number one, seek first the kingdom of God and all else will be added onto you. Number two is attack each day with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind. Number three, who could possibly have it better than you? The answer of course is what? Nobody. And by the way, if you've ever seen Jim Harbaugh do this with his player, who has it better than us?

Starting point is 00:42:59 Nobody, nobody, right? Number four, better today than yesterday. Better tomorrow than today. Number five five and six or two of my favorites He says five heroes have no days off You want to be a hero heroes have no days off Maybe some of you that are watching and saying what an extreme position to take you watch their two sons dreams become a reality What an extreme position to take. You watch their two sons' dreams become a reality, whooping some ass, one with Baltimore Ravens, I believe, and the other one with Michigan, and the guy almost took a regular

Starting point is 00:43:31 quarterback capper into Super Bowl and won a championship, Tom, if I'm not mistaken. He was the coach there, right, with San Francisco 49ers. Well, the Harbol was, both Harbaz, imagine his pride, he had two sons competing against each other in the Super Bowl. Sick! Think about that. Let me continue here, right?

Starting point is 00:43:49 Heroes have no days off, okay? Next if you want to keep it simple. Six, your fate is in your hands. Nobody controls your fate but you. Number seven, think, innovate, find solutions by your talent and effort. You will be known by your talent and effort. You will be known. Eight, choose a great role model. Watch them, emulate them, then make them proud. What an incredible rule. Next, nine, a smile being pleasant is a small piece of

Starting point is 00:44:17 price to pay for the goodwill and affection of others. Ten, discipline yourself daily to be physically fit for life. 11. Great effort equals great results. 12. Stop trying to win all your fights in the first round. Powerful. 13. What we do in life echoes in eternity. 14. Seek long and trusting friendships by being happy and helpful for the other guy's success. That's the part about envy. I'm going to read that one more time. Seek long and trusting friendships by being happy and helpful for the other guy's success. 15. The best customer is a satisfied one.

Starting point is 00:44:55 17. The only job you start at the top is digging a hole. Everything else, you start at the flipping bottom. 17. The golden rule. Treat others as you want to be treated. 18, here's advice, ABCs for picking a good school. Academics, ball, college environment.

Starting point is 00:45:12 19, three keys to happiness in descending order. Three, pick a job you love. Two, outwork your competition. One, marry wisely. 20, is the cherry on the top. Contemplating a career move? Do what is best for your family personally and professionally. A place where you'll be happy and productive and where you are wanted and they like what

Starting point is 00:45:33 you do and how you do it. Follow the direction. Keep doing you. It's working. God bless you and yours, Jim Harbaugh. The reigning NCAA football national champion signs off. What a freaking message. You know why I love this message?

Starting point is 00:45:46 Because this guy from San Francisco is telling people to work from certain hours. Maybe they don't have a small dream like you do. Maybe they don't want to just be a regular guy having a small little job. Who are you to dictate how big somebody wants to think and how big of a life they want to build? If a person casts a vision to a team and they go to Michigan and the guy says, you want to win a championship? Here's how we're going to be training. You want to be going into the NFL?

Starting point is 00:46:08 This is what is required of you. Oh my God, that's too hard. That's too tough. Well, it's not made for everybody. Specifically not this Haney guy. It's made for people who want to go above and beyond that create hundreds of thousands of jobs worldwide like all those businesses started in Silicon Valley that you criticize and they didn't work only from eight to five.

Starting point is 00:46:30 They worked their tails off. What an incredible message by the Harbaugh family to see who they're duplicating, right? Powerful when you think about the impact proper affirmations can have in you. Go ahead, Alex. I love that list. And look, my dad went to University of Michigan. I'm a Detroit guy, like born and raised in Miami, but my dad's from Detroit. This guy just won a national championship.

Starting point is 00:46:50 Uh, Jim Harbaugh. He's the younger brother. He's 60 years old, Jim. Now he just took the head coaching job for the chargers. So he's going to replace the coach that just left LA. John Harbaugh, the older brother, uh's won Super Bowl with Baltimore. That was the Harbaugh ball. I think it was 2012. That was Colin Kaepernick. Yeah, it was in New Orleans with the power outage. Exactly. Yep. Incredible. His quarterback just

Starting point is 00:47:15 won MVP this year. So talk about resume, and it started with the father, but I'll tell you this and I'll bring it back to basically the entrepreneurs and the entrepreneurs out there. At the end of the day, you need a bet on yourself. If you are willing to pay the price. So for instance, in my field, in your field, we are commission based in the insurance business, the financial service business. You don't make money unless you make sales. Every single guy that works for PHP knows what I'm talking about. There's no salary, there's no base, and you need to say, all right, eat what you kill, get up every single day, and bust your ass. And if you know that, for instance, in the insurance business, I love what you talk

Starting point is 00:47:54 about, that insurance sales are made after 6 p.m., right? What percentage of insurance sales are made after 6 p.m.? 90%. Okay, so if you're thinking you're gonna work 95 in a commission-based world, you got another thing coming. You got to bet on yourself. You got to bust your freaking ass. It's a dumb policy. Exactly.

Starting point is 00:48:12 It's a dumb policy. Again, it's a dumb policy by somebody who's not in the arena, somebody that's on the outside of the arena that wants to tell what the guy to do inside the arena. The guy in the arena is getting hit from every angle, condemned you did this wrong you did that wrong you did this Wrong, what about this? You're such an idiot. You're so this all you know and then meanwhile the guys like listen just relax Let us perform if we lose we lose if we win we win, but you guys keep criticizing screaming hollering. We'll do our part Love that list by Harbaugh. Okay. Let's keep going Since we're talking Michigan. I thought it's appropriate to go to this next Michigan story. It's not the same kind of a story, but Michigan

Starting point is 00:48:47 protesters chant, Death to America and Death to Israel. Okay? Interesting to see this happen. And now Rob, is there a video of this taking place? This is a real video of this taking place. Okay, so let me read this to you. Muslim demonstrators in Dearborn, Michigan rally chanting, Death to America and Death to Israel during an Al-Quds Day event amidst global outrage over the recent killing of seven aid workers in Gaza by an Israeli airstrike. Activist Tariq Bazi criticized the U.S. government involvement in funding atrocities and directed a chant against Israel, declaring the chant, Death to Israel has become the most logical chance shouted across the world today The Wall Street Journal depiction of Dearborn as America's jihad capital Wow Wall Street Journal said this yeah sparked mayor Abdullah

Starting point is 00:49:36 moods to enhance police presence due to escalating anti-muslim sentiment while Steven Stalinski stood by his characterization of the city as hotbed of hate. Can you play this clip, Rob? Al Mawzi, Africa! Malcolm X said, and I quote, We live in one of the rottenest countries that has ever existed on this earth. It's not genocide Joe that has to go. It's the entire system that has to go.

Starting point is 00:50:10 Any system that would allow such atrocities and such devilry to happen and would support it, such a system does not deserve to exist on God's earth. And so when these fools ask us if Israel has the right to exist on God's earth and so when these fools ask us if Israel has the right to exist the chant death to Israel has become the most logical chance shouted across the world who is this guy do you know who this guy I have no idea who you mom you see what he says about Khomeini. Imam Khomeini recognized that Israel is an evil settler. Can you play it? He recognized that Israel is an evil settler-colonious project.

Starting point is 00:50:55 He realized it is a cancer and he established this day. Israel before this, brothers and sisters sisters was a sacred cow Nobody could criticize Israel everybody was terrified of being Adam thoughts on this I'm gonna let the mini go first on this Well, I was going so I think Adam we're gonna see eye to eye because I am and I know you guys will have the same Sentiment I am sick and tired of Americans Shitting on America. I'm done I'll start low from athletes kneeling

Starting point is 00:51:26 during the national anthem, staying in their locker room, not even coming out, to actors saying, and artists, if this doesn't happen, I'm going to leave this country. And now, Muslim Americans in Dearborn, Michigan, chanting death to America.

Starting point is 00:51:41 Okay, first of all, I think there should be a law. If you utter some stupid shit like that, you lose your, whoever's in the crowd, PBD, loses their citizenship, and you go back to whatever fucking country that you come from. Number one, death to America, really? Have we not learned our lesson?

Starting point is 00:51:56 When people like that, like an extremist, says some shit like that, what do you think happens next with that type of dialogue, okay? And I believe in freedom of speech, but saying that should be a terroristic threat and taken seriously because I and by the way I would say I hope the FBI finds out who are those people in there chaining death to America but guess what the FBI doesn't have time to do that

Starting point is 00:52:16 Tom they're going after grandmothers who were outside the Capitol building on January 6th enough is enough like pastor that says something, you know, and they say, oh that's hate speech. This isn't hate speech? Oh no, 100, oh for sure. And it's like, bro, when is enough going to be enough? The FBI, yeah, they're going after watch lists, terror, putting parents that go to school board meetings. This shit drives me crazy. Kicking down doors. Yeah, if the FBI isn't there, PBD, getting the names of all these assholes that were saying death America What are your thoughts? Sorry? Well, look you're getting a little glimpse of

Starting point is 00:52:51 What Israel and Jews have to deal with every single day? The guy says this is the this is the logical chant shadow across the world today logical This is their logic. This is their mindset Logical. This is their logic. This is their mindset. To me this is just raw emotion. We know the difference between logic and emotion. But how do you combat this? I'm trying to come to this from just a logical sense.

Starting point is 00:53:14 I could, I could, I agree with you. How to combat it Adam? No meaning. That the FBI goes and fights. If you say death to America, guess what that means? Anything that you could do to F us up here, maybe somebody comes to you and goes, hey, go blow this up or go do this so that is bull I don't I that is horrible so welcome to the beauty of freedom of speech in the beauty of America

Starting point is 00:53:33 I'm totally cool with what he had to say, and I'm Jewish. I have family in Israel And I'll say two things This is why I believe in freedom of speech. I want this person saying this so they can be exposed You know The famous phrase, transparency, sunlight, is the greatest disinfectant. I want to know what this guy has to say. So do I, but Adam, do you think that they should get, I'm sorry, I have to call you off.

Starting point is 00:53:54 Oh, yes. You don't think of somebody that said death to America and you're living in this country, I don't trust you. Believe me, I think the FBI or the CIA should be tracking these people at this point. Oh, they won't be, but they won't be. Trust me, they won't be. Well, we'll find out about that.

Starting point is 00:54:06 But you know, that's the beauty of living here in the confines of America is you can say this and you know what's going to happen? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. But the problem is, if you're this to me is not even like a Jewish thing or an Israeli thing. This is an extremist thing. When you're saying death, I need this or a cancer, they must be eliminated.

Starting point is 00:54:24 This is exactly the mindset and the ideology that must be thwarted. There's two sides to this. First of all, the price of free speech is free speech. Nobody liked what the American Nazi party marched in Ohio and had their rally in the park and they got a permit and nobody likes what they said. It's horrible but the price of free speech is free speech but when people take action on free speech there are serious problems and calling for jihad is calling for violence and it's calling for violence against people

Starting point is 00:54:59 and this is we may not like what they say, but we've given them a platform under our beloved constitution to have free speech and You know with free speech sometimes you have to wince and I really wince when In their free speech. They're condemning the very foundation that gives them that free speech, which is america itself and her beloved constitution gives them that free speech, which is America itself and her beloved Constitution. And so this frustrates the hell out of me. And that's fine, PPD.

Starting point is 00:55:30 And Tom, I get, and I'm with you, free speech, go ahead, say it, but there could be consequences for your stupid ignorant rhetoric. Inciting a riot is illegal. Taking action against others is illegal. And you know what? There's going to be downstream consequences from this kind of time. What I'm saying is guys all takes time. Adam, one person, one person in that crowd that's like that's kind of weak-minded okay Death to America guess what I'm gonna do I'm gonna drive my car into a

Starting point is 00:55:56 group of people because of that idiot right there. I say scope go back to whatever country you think is better than this place that's what get the get out of here. Leave. Vinny, I'm actually going to ask people a question. See how you're feeling right now? I'm always like this though. I get what you're saying with the Israel and July. Adam, I get it.

Starting point is 00:56:15 But this place, this amazing place, you could say it, you could still get punched in the face too, FYI. About my country. This is sort of new to America. We're seeing this in America. Americans saying, death to America. Okay, among the Middle East extremists, ideology is pervasive. I mean, how many times in Iran did you hear death to America? All the time. Death to Israel?

Starting point is 00:56:41 That's not a big deal. I mean, this is standard protocol. I heard a lot of death to America. I didn't hear a lot of death to Israel. That's not a big deal. I mean, this is standard protocol. I heard a lot of death to America. I didn't hear a lot of death to Israel. What I remember as a kid was death to America in Iran. But I remember also the Shah was not a fan of the amount of influence that Zionists had over media. That was his deal. His deal was very different than what Khomeini is saying.

Starting point is 00:57:05 Khomeini is saying they don't even deserve to exist. That's not what Shah was saying. Shah got along with everybody and there was peace in the Middle East. But Shavi Rant said different things about Zionists in media when he was being questioned by Wallace. And is this the interview? Is this the one where he... This is a still of up yes this is it can you play well pressuring they have many means at their disposal they are putting up pressure

Starting point is 00:57:35 on many many people and at the end i don't think that it will it will even help israel why if this is true why would the president of the United States pay attention to that lobby? They are strong. Strong in what sense? They are controlling many things. Controlling what? Newspapers, med I'm going to stop there. Well now wait just a second.

Starting point is 00:58:14 You really do believe that the Jewish community in the United States is that powerful? They make the media reflect their view of foreign policy? Yes. They do not report, we do not report honestly? Don't mix things please. I don't say the media, I say in the media they have people. Not the entire media. Some newspapers will only reflect their views, yes. reflect their views, yes. The New York Times, for instance, is owned by the Salzberger family, who are Jewish. Are you suggesting that the New York Times is biased in its treatment of the question of Zionism, Israel's existence, the United States' relationship with the Arab world?

Starting point is 00:59:03 Don't put words in my mouth. I will have to put all the articles in your hand. So he had a different position than the one Khomeini had. So he got along with Israel. He just didn't believe the amount of control that media had. Khomeini on Israel was a very different position. He just didn't believe they deserved to exist. These are two different philosophies.

Starting point is 00:59:22 So when you think about like the other day I'm at a soccer game. This guy walks up to me, okay? And I'm like, okay, let's see what direction this is going to go. His shirt says Palestine or Palestinian something. He says, hey, PBD. I said, how you doing? Good. I said, so what's up?

Starting point is 00:59:41 He says, I watched the podcast. I said, cool. He said, I like some of the stuff you have to say. He said, some of the stuff I don't agree with. I said, really? Tell me He says I watched the podcast. I said Cole. He said I like some of the stuff you have to say He says some of the stuff I don't agree with that's a really tell me what you don't agree with well when you guys do that I'd add it on and I'm so okay sounds good He was a diehard Candace Owens fan big Candace Owens fan big Jimmy Dore fan a couple other guys Yeah, I said, so what do you disagree with which is kind of going through it? You know what happened? We had a phenomenal 15-minute conversation together at the championship game that Dylan

Starting point is 01:00:06 had, right? Phenomenal championship game. That's not the same person as who you saw right now in Michigan chanting death to Israel and death to America. There's levels to this madness, right, of what position you take. Now some of them don't want to say it, deep down inside even this guy didn't believe Israel deserved to have land He's like no not necessarily. Okay, but now that they have it we got to make it work But there's a lot of people that don't believe Israel should have ever gotten the land and they have animosity towards that, right?

Starting point is 01:00:41 Well, why would you put in the middle and all this other stuff? But the point here with this is there's levels to it. If you're living in America, you hate America, very easy. Get out of here. Go to wherever else you want to be. You don't have to be here. That person, if that person's from, let's just say Iraq, that person's from Afghanistan, go back to Afghanistan.

Starting point is 01:01:00 Yeah, go back to Iraq. Go back to wherever you want to go to. But if you're going to be here, you You have to be proud just like running a company I've ran businesses even today out of you know say out of 100 people that you're gonna do comedy in front of 150 people right or let's just say you go to an audience that don't know You okay? You're speaking in front of a thousand people how many of them you think at the end are gonna Love you love me love you out of a thousand out of a thousand and they don't know me they've never met you

Starting point is 01:01:28 How many more gonna like your style of comedy? Let's say well, I think half at least okay That's the point. They're gonna be like, yeah, how many people are gonna say that guy's annoying? Well, I'm pretty sure the chats There's at least nine of the number Let's say I'm saying comedy out of a thousand or hundred people in that thousand like he's not my company Maybe more now. Let me I go give a speech about business. Okay, and this thousand audience first time It's not like a vault vitamin audio. Yeah, I'm just speaking to a new audience, right? Yeah, a thousand of them how many of them are gonna say this guy makes a lot of sense I'll say six hundred seven six fifty, but let's just say it's the same number as you're given. The point is

Starting point is 01:02:04 You're not gonna win everybody and even at a company, you know, it's the same number as you're given. The point is, you're not going to win everybody. And even at a company, you know what's the first question I ask of someone? Do you want to be here? Listen, I had a person that I was working with, and this person I went up to, this was five years ago, six years ago, Tom, you remember this person, I'd say, so listen, can I ask you a question here? Do you like your job here? Honestly, I was just really doing this to put on my resume because I want, no, then

Starting point is 01:02:26 let me help you get another job. Because all I want is, I want people that love their jobs. If you don't love it, I don't take it personally. I don't go to sleep trying to win everybody over. But go to a place that you love your job. Here's the problem. Those people have changed 10 jobs and they never loved any job. Because it's always been somebody else's fault, right?

Starting point is 01:02:48 In this situation, if you hate America and you love your country, simply just go back to your country. That's all you need to do. Rob, something happened to the audio, like increasing, increasing. You hear that? Yeah, because they can easily go back to their country. I heard some pop. Yeah, what is could easily go yeah, they hurt hurt some pop so that that's yeah, what is that Rob? Here's your own

Starting point is 01:03:09 I hear like a like a wave. Oh it got worse You don't hear it yeah, I hear it for sure I hear it does the chatter I don't have to chat here. So let me see if they hear it? Yeah, I hear it for sure. I hear it. Does the chat hear it? I don't know if the chat hears it. Let me see if they hear it or not. The Hamas Brigade doesn't want to talk about this. It's raining. Is it raining outside?

Starting point is 01:03:31 You hear it sounds like. Yeah, something's going weird. I hear like static. Okay, it's better now. No, they don't hear it. We only hear it. So it's fine. All right, let me continue with the next story.

Starting point is 01:03:40 So by the way, you know what this leads me to? This leads me to the next story. RFK undercuts Democrats on J6 saying little evidence of true insurrection. Independent presidential candidate Robert Kennedy issued a statement criticizing the prosecution of J6 protests that acknowledge in wrongdoing but questioning the portrayal of the event as an insurrection stating, reasonable people tell me there's little evidence of a true insurrection. Kennedy expressed concerns about the possibility of political motives behind the prosecution

Starting point is 01:04:11 of J-6 defendants, highlighting a broader pattern of government agencies being used against political opponents, asserting, without the impartial rule of law, there is no true democracy or moral governance, he proposed appointing a special counsel to investigate potential abuse of prosecutorial discretion in the January 6 case. You know what this means? So in one instance, you have something where a group of people are screaming death to America, nothing happens to them. In another instance, a thousand people get arrested for not being happy with what takes place the government

Starting point is 01:04:48 gets to pick and choose who to demonize and who to edify and who to idolize in this instance they chose to demonize a thousand americans that were simply not happy what the government was doing they intentionally figured out a way to demonize these guys in the rest is this time what your thoughts on this with ourK? We have to remember, why did they call it an insurrection? Why was that word so important to the Democrats to label it an insurrection? Because that was the word that was in the Constitution that gave them the right to take action. Correct. So they had to call it an

Starting point is 01:05:21 insurrection. That was the only way they could do it. And now you have sane people, you've had sane people in the judiciary, by the way, liberals and conservatives, who have all said the constitutional intent behind the word insurrection was not this. This was a protest that, you know, we can all talk about the protests and the number of agents that were in there and the fact that the doors were wide open. Exactly, right? Come on in here.

Starting point is 01:05:49 Hey, can I help you with your big fuzzy hat with horns? So what is going on here with Kennedy is he is correctly pointing out that the word insurrection is not being used, number one. And then he's correctly pointing out, he says, hey, why don't we just appoint a special counsel to investigate potential abuses of prosecution discretion, abusing prosecution discretion these January 6 cases? Nobody wants to do that because that exposes the man behind the curtain. Yeah, no, and I think that's the fact that you you blended those two stories together is absolutely perfect

Starting point is 01:06:28 January 6 like our friend Steve Schmidt the worst day in American history. No, no worse than 9-eleven worse. Yeah, I'm by bad Thank you for Korea. Thank you worse than 9-eleven These guys are on camera saying death to America that to me is a threat like you're you want something bad to happen Meanwhile this grandmother who is just standing outside waving a flag. She gets arrested like give me a freaking break. Give me a break Yeah, well the I'll kind of marry the two things together the 14th amendment You know an insurrection or rebellion against the United States of America. I don't personally think it was an insurrection. I don't I think was I Don't know. I don't think think that's what the intention was. At the same time, I will say that it was a very ugly day for America. I think it was

Starting point is 01:07:11 a protest that got completely out of hand by a few bad actors. If there's a million people there, if a couple hundred idiots beyond that maybe were the ones, those people should be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law. Fully agree with that maybe were the ones, those people should be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law, fully agree with that, but the 99% that didn't do that should not be. But it was a protest. But I'll say this. This commentary, this death to America, death to Israel, everything happened in what state? Michigan. It happened in Michigan. Correct. happened in what state? Michigan. It happened in Michigan. Correct. Um, we've seen what's going on in Michigan. By the way, if Biden doesn't win Michigan, the election's over. That's the blue wall. Michigan, everyone up in the Pennsylvania area. So Biden is pandering

Starting point is 01:08:00 to these people. Whereas insurrection, these people, there's nothing to pander to. They take it down to the fullest extent. So there's a story here about how much money Biden just raised, 90 million. Here's what I'm telling you. All that money is going to go to ads just showcasing January 6th. There's two things, threats of democracy showcasing January 6th and they're taking away your ability to have an abortion. Those are the two things that Democrats have against Trump. But I hope and I know our viewers kind of, you know, the majority see on how we think. And Adam, when you said the bad, those few, I'm happy that you said it wasn't an insurrection

Starting point is 01:08:41 because it wasn't, it was a process. But when you say bad actors, you know who the bad actors were Ray Epps obviously a Fed telling people to go inside the FBI shooting rubber bullets to make the crowd attack To the Trump supporters I mean the fake FBI Trump supporters that were dressed as Trump supporters on the inside Basically setting up like that. They're pushed. They're gonna go all in you're right on that insurrection stuff But I hope to God people realize Nobody had guns Nobody died the only female that got shot and killed was Ashley bad

Starting point is 01:09:12 But she was murdered by a by a Capitol police officer. That's it I'll tell you where I agree with you and I'll tell you where I disagree with you I agree that there this ray abs character and these people out there inciting but then you're saying that the people don't have Personal responsibility if someone says bro go in there and do it That's right. It's on your dumbass. Oh, yeah that went in there and do it Yeah, so those people that listen to radius they should be able to go But wait, bro, I get that totally get that but you fell for Russia collusion Trump You fell for it. So did a lot of people so did Michael Rappaport

Starting point is 01:09:45 Okay, That's manipulation. Okay. John Maxwell, I was saying this to a guy Sunday at church, right after church, we were having a meeting. John Maxwell says something very powerful from stage that I caught 20 years ago. I was in my mid-20s. He says the moment you learn how to persuade, be very careful to not use that skill set to manipulate. Very careful to not manipulate. Persuasion you can learn. Manipulation is one step away.

Starting point is 01:10:14 When the government uses these events to manipulate the masses, it's effective. It works. It fully works. The other day a guy said something on Twitter and tagged me. He says, yeah, look at Patrick. The reason why Patrick didn't go to Glendale to do that event with the Armenian mothers is because they were not willing to pay

Starting point is 01:10:32 him his $250,000 speaking fee. That's why all he cares about is money. He's a gruff. And I'm like, didn't comment. I'm like, OK. But all I'm watching is to see who falls for that. And I watch. I'm like, okay

Starting point is 01:10:45 He believes it that guy believes it there's power in lies Because what they don't know about is the fact that we wanted to do it at Dudley Rutherford Hall Yeah, that he opened up Shepherd of the Hills the church with 3,500 people But the groups from each city wanted me to go to individual podcasts I said, I don't have that bandwidth then i said guys the halls you got is two three hundred people i want to fill it out with thirty five hundred people don't want to do it there was a speaking for you were i was i was a call on these calls yet

Starting point is 01:11:13 but but the point is this guy who's got a hundred ten thousand followers who actually does pretty good content i've seen a stuff he's a very good he's manipulating he knows he's doing that so he had a fell for somebody else's manipulation or he's causing it himself. So the point I'm making to you, Adam, is it is very, very effective and sometimes the smartest people can fall for this trap. The gift of manipulation that the government uses to have access to something that the average person simply doesn't have access to.

Starting point is 01:11:43 I fully agree and it works both ways, you know? You're right. You're right. You're right. Fully, because it's like telling your kid, hey, if somebody offers you cocaine, what happens with the mic? What is going on with the mic, Rob? Do we know, like, it's popping left and right?

Starting point is 01:11:58 I don't know. Something keeps popping with the mic. Go ahead. Yeah, so it just got worse, Rob, whatever you did. Yeah, it just got worse. I don't know what's going on. But they're not hearing ahead. Yeah, so you... Yeah, nope. It just got worse, Rob. Whatever you did. Yeah, it just got worse. I don't know what's going on. But they're not hearing it.

Starting point is 01:12:09 No, they're hearing it. So now they're hearing it. Well, whatever you just plugged in, I think it just did it. That made it worse. Sounds like we're at the beach. Yep. Yeah, it just got worse. It got worse.

Starting point is 01:12:24 It got worse. so I don't know what's going on. Maybe some one of the guys from out there can come and we'll try this for a few more minutes. If it continues, we'll just finish up the podcast because it's... It works both ways. No, I mean if the clients, if the people are listening to this, this is too disturbing, we'll stop it. If they tell us continue, we'll continue anyways. But you tell your kid, if a guy offers you cocaine, tells you it's the greatest thing since sliced bread and you do it, part of it is on you, right? The other guy's converting you, but

Starting point is 01:12:50 you could say yes or no to it as well. So I agree with that as well. Let me go to a couple other stories. Vinny. Vinny Hinojosa Yes, sir. Dr. Emanuel Levin I believe, if I'm not mistaken, you read something last night. You want to tell us what you read last night with a journal you read last night? All right. So I'll give a quick synopsis. So back in 2020, a diary was left behind by Ashley Biden. Nobody stole anything. Amy Harris, who lived at the house, discovered the diary,

Starting point is 01:13:19 was under the bed, along with Ashley Biden's clothes, luggage, pills. So Amy, her and her friend, because Rob's going to have to play this, this lady calls James O'Keefe and she goes, listen, we found this thing. It's under the bed. Rob, can you play that? The video. Now this is the lady that they found it and she's reporting finding this thing. Rob, can you play this clip?

Starting point is 01:13:44 My family, their friend who owns a house down here in Palm Beach was renting it out. I don't know how, but this is a while back. But anyway, somebody, a new renter moved in and Ashley Biden was staying in this room and they found her diary, all of her clothes, luggage, pills. Anyway, diary is pretty crazy. I think it's worth taking a look at. It's not a joke. It's real. And I'd love to get into your hands. Okay, so now ready for this guys? So this lady finds it, PBD. Her and her friend are like, hey, I'm going to go to a Trump rally. I'm going to try to sell it to them her and her friend are like hey, I'm gonna go to a Trump rally I'm gonna try to sell it to them. This is this is good

Starting point is 01:14:29 You know what's it called Tom like opposition research when you try to damage the other political. Yeah So Trump campaign says they can't use it Trump said Trump and them say go to the FBI so they can't so they go to James O'Keefe to verify It's verified the Department of Justice raids two of James O'Keefe's and Project Veritas' houses. And think about it, have you ever heard of the FBI raiding somebody's house for alleged stolen diary, which is ridiculous? So this just- Oh, we have now. Well, think about it, Tom. This just proves that the FBI is biased or runs the left because they

Starting point is 01:15:00 protect Joe Biden. All right, just like when they set up with the Twitter, the FBI was at Twitter for all the negative stories. Now, regardless, the diary is real, guys. They authenticated the diary. Not only did prosecutors confirm the diary as being authentic, but Ashley Biden also recorded calling Project Veritas to get her stuff back. Rob, can you play the audio? This is Ashley Biden calling Project Veritas to try to get her stuff back. Rob, can you play the audio? This is Ashley Biden calling Project Veritas to try to get her stuff back.

Starting point is 01:15:27 Hi, is this Ashley Biden? This is she. How are you? I'm doing well. Yeah, I just wanted to, so I heard you have a few of my belongings. And so I was going to ask if you could please meet my friend, Eric, who is down in Delray. If you could meet him and get this up to him. There's a diary here. It starts in January.

Starting point is 01:15:53 It says January at the end of a New York month, I'm sitting on a bed at the I building. Yeah. So if you could just give everything that you have to Eric, that would be really great. I don't want to give this to the wrong person. I want to make sure. I don't want to have to get Secret Service involved in this, right? Because it's a whole process.

Starting point is 01:16:22 But you know, I am actually Biden. It is my stuff. So if you could just give all actually Biden. It is my stuff. So if you could just skip all of that. It is my stuff. Okay. And again, so everybody's worrying about, oh my god, they stole. Let's just be honest with each other, guys. The daughter said it is my stuff. It's her stuff. So besides the fact that the Biden kids keep leaving things behind, that's incriminating the family, one has to ask, like, and we talked about this yesterday with Shane and Connor, is this, PBD, could this be a cry for help? Hunter Biden leaves two incriminating laptops at the computer repair shop with videos of him doing drugs with what appear to be underage girls. His daughter is leaving a diary, which I've never heard of somebody

Starting point is 01:17:00 leaving a freaking diary behind. It's as if they're doing it on purpose. And then I read the diary, like I said, I'm going to have Rob put the link up. But guys, Ashley in the Bible, in the Bible, in the diary, which I'm gonna read right now, PBD, she was contemplating whether her father was sexually inappropriate with her when she was a little girl. She mentions in the diary, showers with her dad and also talks about them being not appropriate. This is what I'm gonna read to you guys. She said it, Rob's going to put the link in there, I think I'm going to an AA meeting tomorrow night. And maybe he will be there, maybe not.

Starting point is 01:17:35 But I always have been crazy and I remember pulling up my skirt in second grade and showing the boys my underpants. Hypersexualized at a young age, what is this due to? Was I molested? I think so. I I can't remember specifics but I do remember trauma I remember not liking the wool wool Zach's house I remember somewhat being sexualized with Carolyn and here's where he gets crazy I remember having sex with friends at a young age showering with my dad probably not appropriate okay it just stopped how showers with my dad, probably not appropriate. Okay? It just stopped.

Starting point is 01:18:05 Showers with my dad, probably not appropriate. Being turned on when I wasn't supposed to. And then she keeps going, and this, she says, I'm not going to get into that because it's pretty pretty bad, but she goes, I could list all the reasons, but I can't seem to find the solution. And there it goes again. But she wrote that Joe Biden was brought into tears for his daughter just before a Democratic primary debate, PBD, because he knew that

Starting point is 01:18:31 if this got into the wrong hands, this was going to get out and people were going to know about it. Because think about the national threat, Tom. If China or Russia gets a hold of this diary and they find out that the president was, from her words, sexually in the shower with her molesting and doing all that type of stuff, I think it opens up a can of worms that's insane. Tom? I think this is horrible, and I've read portions of the Bible. The diary. The diary that have been made, now you got me doing it, that were made public.

Starting point is 01:19:03 And this is a person talking about her journey with a and a very troubled past and it must be terribly embarrassing for her for this to be made uh... public but the other part of this is this appears to be an abuse minor that is in the household of the president of the united states yet and implicating

Starting point is 01:19:23 the president himself in parts of this. And I find that to be horrifying. I find the fact that her brother is also deeply troubled to be horrifying. And it comes back to parenting and it comes back to things. Yeah. And, and, and at a wrap that it's, it's that Mike, just bold up to it. Yeah. Just unplug it. There we go

Starting point is 01:19:45 Um, that's the Mike Adam moves Adam this whole Joke is that you but um, and then okay, that's perfect cuz then once Rob gets in here I'm gonna I'm gonna say something so she writes all this stuff She and I'm gonna have Rob put the link up there guys She's saying all this stuff and look at look at what this type of childhood if it is true Which it's her words not mine. Look at what it type of childhood, if it is true, which it's her words, not mine, look at what it has done to her. Overly sexualized, NAA and all this.

Starting point is 01:20:10 And Robby, can you do me a big favor if you get a chance? Could you play? It's not like we don't have a history of Joe Biden being what Joe Biden does. Can you please play that video that I sent you earlier in my Slack? And as if Joe Biden hasn't showed us I know allegedly Terry said that he he pushed her against the wall. This is during the Democratic debates and he penetrated her guys. This is the guy that Ashley Biden

Starting point is 01:20:36 constantly wrote about in her diary and why she is played this clip. And then we're going to have it. OK, Look at his hands. Just look at Joe Biden's freaking hands. Look and this girl wrote about what he's like. Look at how uncomfortable she is. Look, look. How uncomfortable is this child?

Starting point is 01:20:58 Hey look at the parents. What are you doing? Look at his hand. Look at his hand. No, not smile. No, not smile. No, not smile. No, not smile. No, not smile. No, not smile.

Starting point is 01:21:10 No, not smile. No, not smile. No, not smile. No, not smile. No, not smile. No, not smile. No, not smile. No, not smile.

Starting point is 01:21:18 No, not smile. No, not smile. No, not smile. No, not smile. No, not smile. No, not smile. No, not smile. No, not smile. No, not actress. Alright. She's the actress, the madam. Yeah. Look, look, even the, like.

Starting point is 01:21:26 What's that? Give it to Lengoria. Lengoria, grab it. He moved. Yeah, look, look. He's pitching this little girl. This girl's eight years old. I forgot her name.

Starting point is 01:21:34 She's an eight year old girl. She even wrote, she posted something about how uncomfortable that moment was. Give it a pause. Yeah, pause it. So I want to ask you a question, PPT. As a father, and I know you have little kids, and I think my friend Brady talked about, yeah, what, his two-year-old, he had shorts, but he was shying because he was trying to ... have you ever heard of someone taking showers with their kids at an inappropriate

Starting point is 01:21:55 age where she can remember and write about it? And you see how he acts, you see how he does. In 2018, Rob, he had a video where he sat there and had to apologize. He goes, listen, I know I'm touchy. I know I'm handsy and I got to get better. What, when you see that and I, and the fact that he has control of the FBI to go raid James O'Keefe his place just to get a diary back that doesn't, when have you ever heard something like that?

Starting point is 01:22:20 That just shows you that they, the left, the Democrats own the FBI. How I don't get it. These are her words. I didn't make this up. She's saying I was over-sexualized, showers with my dad, not an appropriate age. How as a father, does that bother you when you hear shit like that and you see him doing stuff like that? Yeah, the part that stuck out the most is when the daughter said, yeah, that's my writing,

Starting point is 01:22:44 I wrote it, but you need to give it back, I don't want to get Secret Service involved. The fact that she said, that's my writing, they can't say that's not her writing. Exactly. The person who wrote it just said, that is my writing, right? I don't know if you heard that, Rob, if you can go a little bit more further, further, further. Oh yeah, because he wants, by great tactic, he wants to make sure it's hers. He goes, we read this Bible, is this a Bible?

Starting point is 01:23:08 I keep saying Bible, because I do read the Bible. This is her diary. Right there. Pray if I'm right there. Right there. There you go. Listen. At this point, and I don't mean, I don't want to have to get Secret Service involved in

Starting point is 01:23:19 this, right? Because it's just, it's a whole process. But, you know, I am actually Biden. It is my stuff. So if you could just skip all of that over, I would really. It is my stuff. It is hard. There it is.

Starting point is 01:23:33 There it is. So, but the question, so now, okay. So the question now becomes what's gonna happen? Absolutely nothing. But the part about absolutely nothing is also predicated based on on you don't yet know if there's one thing Trump knows how to do. Okay, who's the underdog?

Starting point is 01:23:55 Trump or Biden? Who's the underdog? Oh, Trump, right. 100% Trump's the underdog. Okay. In life, there are a few different types of fighters, okay? There are a few different types of fighters and you'll relate to one of them and when I explain this to you this will make sense to you. There are

Starting point is 01:24:15 those who are very good at winning as underdogs but they don't know how to win as favorites. Let me explain. Okay, so this kind of makes sense. Trump beat Hillary as an underdog or a favorite. He was the underdog. The ultimate underdog. All big time. Like no one, we are at 3.30 in the morning, Tom and I are on the phone saying, what the

Starting point is 01:24:37 hell, what just happened Tom? Is this guy the president? He's the president. Billboard goes on, you know, what's that guy's name, the one with the weird hair who's very Conan O'Brien. He says, I guess he's our president. He says, but listen, you think this? The hockey, the US Olympic thing, the Dodgers doing this, or the Mets, or the Yankees, all

Starting point is 01:25:00 these things, Steve, whatever home runs, nothing ever comes close to this nobody ever thought this guy's gonna win Right. He was the underdog then he's the favorite. He didn't know how to manage being a favorite He didn't know how to do it again. So because as a favorite you can't use the same tactics like it's not fair They're not doing this that are done. You're so as a favorite sometimes playing as a favorite in his personality he plays too aggressive and it comes across arrogant as favorite sometimes when you're favorite you have to play a little bit like his personality, he plays too aggressive and it comes across arrogant as a favorite. Sometimes when you're a favorite, you have to play a little bit like giving up to the people, the workers, but then now he's back at being the underdog.

Starting point is 01:25:33 The guy knows how to win as an underdog. So meaning the same way, if there is a debate and he had those three ladies that Clinton was accused of raping, three, four ladies that were in the place and... Why do you have Broderick, the whole crew? He had to look at him and Hillary had to look at him. Those are moments. Trump knows these types of moments.

Starting point is 01:25:54 You know, all there needs to be is one debate with Biden. All there needs to be for him to have a couple of guests in the audience to put up there, Tony Bublinski, or have all these other people lined up. Let me tell you who I have here in the audience. I got this guy, I got that guy, I got this guy, I got that guy, I got that guy. Have you seen the, and then he'll take something out of his pocket. Have you ever seen, and she said this is her diary.

Starting point is 01:26:15 She said it. She said, no, Trump's going to say it. And this is her diary, her words. She said while she was being interviewed, this is her diary, bring it back or else I'm calling Secret Service. Whose daughter have you ever heard read something like this in her diary? Trump's capable of these moments. These types of moments are moments that can help him win the entire thing.

Starting point is 01:26:33 That if he knows, even Snopes says unproven. And by the way, in Snopes, you know what unproven means? True. True, exactly. And going back to the story, it says this, this PBD says while there is strong evidence that diary exists No source has authenticated its content daughter did the writer just did what are you talking about? She said this is mine Yeah, it's her and the slopes. What else do you need aside from Ashley saying I wrote it Yeah, that's coming from the horse's mouth

Starting point is 01:26:59 and by the way, and I think people are are are going to cease to figure out the story is DOG seeks prison time for the woman who stole the diary. Guys, she found it under a bed. And guess what? She said, holy crap, I have something. Let me try to sell it. And guess what? Talk about that.

Starting point is 01:27:18 Okay. It's bad. It's not good. You know, it's immoral. That's okay. Put that to the side. The diary, the's immoral. That's okay. Put that to the side the diary the content is real and this just goes back to

Starting point is 01:27:28 behaviors of Elite pieces of scum that know that they can get away with anything that they want Rob Reported a story a while ago about all the Epstein tracking airplane phone logs and guess what the majority of them flew back to Rob What was the most condensed place Robert of all the people going back home after they went to the pervert island explain it a little bit you're talking about the cell phones yeah look Rob island and then the pings of the cell phones back on the mainland yeah so Rob what was that that one piece I can't hear you okay okay so there so the majority of the people that flew to Epstein Island and then they went back home

Starting point is 01:28:08 The the the major hub of them guess where they flew Washington, Virginia that area So my point Pat what drives me crazy is you hear the girl what she's saying you see his behavior Live on camera when he's getting sworn in touching these these little girls He's smelling all these kids and nobody says anything no no no it's not nobody says anything a lot of people say a lot of things There's there's different things when you in when you run a company and You're you run a good-sized company, and you have a lot of employees and a lot of salespeople There were certain people that thought they could get away with murder. They can't.

Starting point is 01:28:48 Everybody knows a negative crowd. You know who the negative crowd is? They all hang out together and they all think they're right. And the negative crowd will try to do one thing. They'll try to get the person that they think they can convert to be a negative, like you. They'll come to you and they say, I think we can convert Vinnie to be a negative. And then it's your choice to not fall for the negative crowd. The negative crowd always parties together, they have lunch together, they have dinner together, they complain about

Starting point is 01:29:12 their bosses together, they complain about their jobs together, they complain about everything together. I don't know why every place I ever worked from military to valleys to Morgan Stanley to World Financial to you know Everywhere I've ever worked. I don't know why Negative people find each other. I Don't know why and they are by far a hundred times better recruiters than positive people Positive people have a hard time recruiting because the message of being positive is hard. Because the onus is on you. It's personal responsibility.

Starting point is 01:29:53 Is what are you doing about it? Is why don't you improve? Can you not challenge yourself? Read some books, do this. The negative crowd is like, what's a book going to do for me? All he wants to do is read and that's it, right? So meaning, the people that don't want to believe this and they're going to vote a certain way, you can't do anything to them anyways.

Starting point is 01:30:10 They're part of the negative crowd. They're just going to bind. They're going to be like, yeah, whatever. They're just trying to make it up. Stupid. Why would she ever write something like that? She wouldn't write something like that. They're part of that crowd.

Starting point is 01:30:21 And then there's the middle crowd, the independents that are sitting there saying, what if this is true? You ever gone down the rabbit hole of a topic you were curious about and you're like, oh my God, what if this is true? What if this is true? What if this is true? What if this is true? What if this is true?

Starting point is 01:30:35 And you're like, maybe this is true. And then those people are going to flip. And you have to trust the fact that American people, as it gets closer and closer, trust the manipulators, trust those who are going to play games, trust the fact that American people, as it gets closer and closer, trust the manipulators, trust the game, those who are going to play games, trust the fact that the next seven months are going to be ugly as hell. They're going to play so many games in the next seven months. Trust me, it's going to be insanity.

Starting point is 01:30:57 But I trust in the independent voter who can think for himself and herself. I believe in that person. Can I ask you one question, PBD? Yeah, of course. The pattern. Yeah. She leaves the diary under a bed. Sure. Okay. Hunter goes to the lap shop, the repair shop, leaves these two laptops with the hell. The laptop. Sure. Do you feel, maybe Pat, that these kids are doing it as like a cry for help? Like come look at what the hell we've been through? Because

Starting point is 01:31:21 they're both really messed up. And the way you have to look at it is you have to put everything on the board and consider which one's gonna be what and put some odds behind it Could be a slight likely like this is a rally. This is a method of these guys crying for help Hey, this is what he did to us. This is what happened with me I'm turned out like this like this guy hooked up with his brother's wife. I know can you imagine like that brother's wife brother's wife? Yeah So, you know, these are these are things that again, I trust the independent voter who has the ability to reason Who is the willingness to be wrong? Who is willing to accept that the ideas they got in the past that they supported were wrong and who loves America and is

Starting point is 01:32:03 Typically a joyful happy person. I believe in those guys. I'm leaning on those people saving this great nation and I think they will. I think they will. Tom, I'm on board. Yeah, I think they will. So anyways, let's go to the next story here that we got. Next story, Tom.

Starting point is 01:32:18 I'm going to go to School District Open's new multi-purpose center to help with workforce training and learning space. This is Dallas. I love hearing stories like this. Tom brought this up and we're definitely going to go into it. Rob, do you have a video of this? I think there's a video here somewhere that we can show. Classes in session and students are immediately out the door. That's how they do it in the OCA complex that looks straight out of Silicon Valley but it sits on the woods southeast of Dallas. If you can play this

Starting point is 01:32:42 clip so the audience can get an idea what this place looks like. Go for it. At the intersection of Inspiration Boulevard and Innovation Way sits an experiment in education. We think this is the future of education. It is certainly something that has never been done before. It's not like school because when people think of school they think like oh there's a bunch of kids going there to learn. You really have like more experiences here so it doesn't really feel like learning when I'm here. Forney ISD's newest campus is called Opportunity Central.

Starting point is 01:33:14 It's the first we found in the nation with any sort of concept like this or any kind of building like this as well. Upstairs are classrooms. Downstairs is where students really learn. I don't describe it as my high school. I would describe it as this is a high school, maybe a job like I think you have responsibilities and you get to learn as you go just as someone would in their own job. Businesses are moving in on the first floor of this campus.

Starting point is 01:33:46 Eddie Deans is opening a barbecue restaurant. Mary Sue's Hot Chicken is coming. So is Southern Social Eatery. Down the corridor, a salon has signed a lease, and construction is almost complete on Martin's Automotive around Bats. They'll run a business out of this? Pine and Ivy is a home decor boutique

Starting point is 01:34:06 and the first business to open its doors here. One is named for each of the high schools. Meg Wagner agreed to mentor 15 40 high schoolers. In exchange, the district gave her a discount on her lease. The fact that I will be able to work with and mentor students

Starting point is 01:34:31 It's a win-win for me personally, but I think it's an opportunity to give back to the love Tom well first of all there's some other facts in here it cost 100 million Oh, wait you had business leaders get involved with the school board to build this and And this place was built for $100 million, $100 million less than the budget that the ISD originally had for it. And let me tell you what these businesses are doing down there. They're giving kids not just the opportunity to work there and make a couple bucks,

Starting point is 01:34:57 you know, people say, oh, you're just using the kids for labor. No, no, no, no, no, no. The purpose of the kids working with these is understanding how to run a business. Whether you are buying raw materials to make the candle or you're running the auto shop, it's about running a small business and what does it take to do that and getting the kids exposed to it. One third of the total square footage is dedicated to those entrepreneurial experiences and The other two floors is a regular high school with regular classes.

Starting point is 01:35:27 This is basically some sanity coming, and it's wonderful. It's happening where? It's happening in Texas, where they're trying to reach out and saying, go upstream. You've heard me talk about upstream and downstream problems. You go downstream, oh, let's fix the problem by charging people a billion dollars in taxes. And other people want to go upstream and say, well maybe let's let's see if we go upstream and stop the problem from starting in the first place. And they're going into high school to say, when you graduate high school here, not only will you have your regular high school education, you are going to have

Starting point is 01:35:58 the experience of having been able to work with a number of small businesses, talk to the business owners, see what it's like and oh my goodness Maybe find another path in life for yourself that leads to success I think that's great people and I'm sorry I don't know you want to go but like especially like with the AI stuff that we saw is gonna be taking over Those girls are learning the trade. They're learning something else on top of school which I think is fantastic Well, I think we've covered this before we're basically college is a scam for many people For certain people it's great if you're going into the fields of STEM science technology engineering math everything like that

Starting point is 01:36:33 But for many people we've had Mike row on the on the podcast before we've had people that talk about this before For men there's so many opportunities out there it's a blue ocean out there for trade and for trade schools. And becoming an HVAC guy or an engineer or a carpenter or a plumber, these guys make six figures, it's dirty jobs. But at the end of the day, these jobs are going nowhere. AI is not replacing your jobs. For many women, whether it's hairdressing or certain skills that you learn at technical

Starting point is 01:37:03 schools like this, artistry, makeup, we know the makeup industry is going nowhere. At the end of the day, college is not worth it. We see student loans skyrocketing. As they always say, degrees pay fees and skills pay the bills. Go learn some great skills that are never failure.

Starting point is 01:37:17 Tom, where's that story about the number of kids that are dropping out, oh, there it is. So more students are dropping out of college. Check this out, page 11. More students are dropping out. Oh, there it is. So more students are dropping out of college. Check this out, page 11. More students are dropping out of college. Let's see this here. Here's why. CNBC story.

Starting point is 01:37:32 One in four students at risk of not completing college. A significant portion of undergraduates, particularly those who are first generation minority or low income students are contemplating dropping out due to financial constraints and other challenges with roughly 26% seriously considering leaving college or facing dismissal. Money is a main concern. Rising college costs and student loan debt are major factors driving students to reconsider their education. About half of those at risk of dropping out, citing difficulties meeting tuition. Interesting. And related expenses such as textbooks and housing. And

Starting point is 01:38:09 our last one is staying the course is crucial. Seeking alternatives, funding options such as scholarships and finding ways to manage expenses. Tom, thoughts on this? Well, first of all, CNBC hit the ball on part of the story. I dug into it. Here is, let's read there, dropping out of college due to financial constraints and other Challenges you know what some of those other challenges were 40% of students are studying things that when they walk out of school They can't use that thing to go I studied European art history Really, so you know where the European you know the Renaissance art came from that's hanging in the museum

Starting point is 01:38:42 Yeah, okay, what the hell does that do for you? Yeah 16th century French poetry you're gonna win a game they played back in the 80s called trivial pursuit look at this year by the way look at this year average tuition and fees adjusted for inflation from 1970 till today look at the baby blue one that's the nonprofit that's the private nonprofit for your skyrocketed from 10 grand now to 40,000 dollars. And then the other side of it is they're getting gouged horribly on tuition to learn about this history. So there are some students here that are studying business or STEM that have legitimate family constraints and being

Starting point is 01:39:21 able to pay for college. That's legitimate. But in the CNBC stories, PBD, they left out the 40% of students that say they are graduating with something, if they can finally pay for it, that they can't freaking use. And so I think that part is embarrassing. You know, tell the story CNBC, tell the whole story. It's very fashionable to say, oh, it's the colleges run by liberals that are spiking up the tuition at the hands of the Liberal Board of Trustees and then petitioning the government to forgive the student loans so they could charge the next crop. Yeah. And the, look, at the end of the day, college is not about education. It's about ROI. I don't remember one class I took in college, maybe one, it was called listening

Starting point is 01:40:04 and I failed. So obviously, obviously, but college is about an ROI. If you go to college and you don't get a return on your investment, what's the point these days, Tom, you talk about this all the time. It's not about education, it's about indoctrination, but what's the ROI on your degree? Half of all graduates are working in a field or in a job or in a profession that is not what they majored in. What's the freaking point? Again, I went to college, it was worth it for me, but most people it's not. And unless you're in the STEM field, medical, law, there's a lot of times that just not worth it in the end. Dropout rates, how many people start, stop, finish, don't get degrees, then you got interest rates.

Starting point is 01:40:46 When I was in college, two and a half percent was the interest rate that I had to pay Sally Maybach. Now it's eight percent. So the numbers just don't add up. And they say that college is four times more expensive, but what you learn is exactly the same, maybe even worse, not worth it. If you can do an on thethe-job training and and learn from some of course aside from the stem but if you can work under somebody and

Starting point is 01:41:09 shadow under somebody to learn from them all day long go do it instead of what they're doing right now and even Tico the other day said something says dad I think when I graduate high school I don't know if I'm gonna go to college right well I'm gonna take one year off to work at a job and a couple things I want to do and then see if I even need To go to college and I'll consider going back So it's gonna be interesting to see what these guys do later on Tom and a closing point on this I won't say the name of the company because Pat and I were at a it was a private discussion But a major US fortune 500 definitely right Pat

Starting point is 01:41:39 Said that they are looking at what is the performance of the people that come into their company from college and they stacked rank the colleges and they were finding things like the University of South Carolina, an engineer did as well as coming from Ivy League schools and they even mentioned that they were de-prioritizing recruiting from Harvard and they prioritized recruiting from, and they named a couple of state schools. You know the conversation I'm talking about, Pat, right? So you've even got companies that are looking at it right now and saying, wait a minute, three years in, what was the performance of this kid from Harvard, and what was the performance

Starting point is 01:42:20 of the kid that went to NYU or the University of South Carolina? And they were finding direct correlations that yes, you have a lot of smart kids that come out of schools, but they're looking at the performance once they start training them in their business, using them in their business, and they're finding, hey, there's another thing. Adam was just talking about ROI. These are companies looking at ROI saying, well, maybe you didn't have to spend three hundred sixty thousand dollars at Harvard Maybe you know spending a hundred grand at a state school and you could have secured the same job at the same wage And at the end of the day the company is like I got the same out of that guy you go make sense

Starting point is 01:42:56 There's different alternatives nowadays next story. I'm going to go to is the Vatican blast gender-affirming surgery Surrogacy and gender theory as violations of human dignity." Let me tell you a little bit about this story, hang tight for me. Okay, here we go. The Vatican's Infinite Dignity Declaration, approved by Pope Francis, categorizes gender affirming surgery and surrogacy as grave violations of human dignity, equating them with abortion and euthanasia, stating, it follows that any sex change innovation as a rule risks threatening the unique dignity the person has received from the moment of conception.

Starting point is 01:43:33 Rejecting the notion of gender theory, the Vatican underscores the biological differences between men and women as ordained by God about time. Warning against attempts to alter this plan stating biological sex and the socio-cultural role of sex gender can be distinguished but not separated, Tom. I think it's very very interesting that this comes out from the Vatican and not come not coming out from the Pope himself. And the Pope's been ill recently and there's been conflict between the Pope and the Vatican and what they called not the Vatican but the the Pope and the Vatican and what they call, not the Vatican,

Starting point is 01:44:05 but the traditionalists within the Vatican who have had issues with Pope Francis going way out on a limb on what they feel is liberal and more progressive stances, and the Vatican traditionalists have been trying to rein this in. So this is not the Pope coming up make a statement, the Pope's been in ill health and we hope he gets well, but I find it very interesting that this isn't the Pope talking, this is the Vatican speaking in a general statement pulling back to traditionalists after we've had four years of a Pope that's kind of going out there on a limb talking about more liberal things. The last time a pope suddenly went out on a limb was John Paul I, who lasted 33 days,

Starting point is 01:44:51 and there's been persistent stories and investigative reporting that felt that after 33 days that he was very quickly offed. So you can go back to that. And that was, I think, 1979, 1980 that happened. It's great to see the church and the Vatican and the Pope taking a firm stance on this with everything we're seeing. Well, don't say the Pope. He just made a good point.

Starting point is 01:45:15 I was just going to ask you guys, do you think the Pope, if he's ill and God help him, but what if the way that he's been acting, I think he'd be all in for the gender affirming. What do you think, Tom? No, no, no, no. This goes the other way. This is them saying... That's the Vatican. Vinny's asking a different question, Tom.

Starting point is 01:45:30 Listen to Vinny's question. Go ahead, Vinny. I'm saying this is the Vatican thing. You just, you made the point that he's ill. He's not, he's not involved. My question to you is, Tom, do you think that him personally, that this is a decision that he agrees with? Or do you think he'd be, from the way he's been talking for the past four years. It seems to me like he'd be like yeah

Starting point is 01:45:45 Let them chop off whatever they want to chop the clearly worded statement is not aligned with a lot of his very Progressive statements that have been also carefully worded, but when you put them side by side, they're different Yeah, notice how this comes out while he's sick now They're like, you know what we're gonna talk and we're gonna lay down the law while he's not feeling well Yeah, we're one grassy knoll short of a new pope. Yeah On behalf of the Vatican it's good to see that they're going back to their biblical roots I'm old school. Some of you guys are more New School Old Testament Genesis they you know what they say about

Starting point is 01:46:22 God and man and woman in Genesis that God created man in his own image and the image of God he created man and the female he created them and then he blessed them, everything with that. There it is, right there. Man and woman created him in the image of God and implies that God has ownership over their lives and will one day pass his throne. But that's not the quote. Oh yeah, so God created man in his own image and the image of God created him.

Starting point is 01:46:42 So yeah, they're going back to basically the basics Genesis old-school there it is. Yeah, that's but again It's good to see this is happening finally because some of the stuff they were up to was a little bit fishy Fishy is an understatement You when you see some of the stuff. Let's talk about something here. Yeah, Southwest Airlines flight Makes emergency landing in Denver after engine falls apart off Boeing 737 plane dude we have the clip Rob can you play this clip could you imagine Tom look we're sitting next to each other and that's happening and we'd like... Would you be freaking out? What do you mean? I'd be praying a line?

Starting point is 01:47:25 That's the freaking... The engine, the outer part of the engine. ...the Denver V-Aradar vector. That might be a windshield? What the hell was that? Dude! What? But they're about to take off? No, they landed, emergency landing.

Starting point is 01:47:41 Shit! Tell me, a Southwest Airlines flight made an emergency landing in Denver after an engine cowling fell off and struck the wind flap during takeoff. The Federal Aviation FAA confirmed the incident stating Southwest Airlines flight 3695 returned safely to Denver International Airport. The Boeing 737-800 was towed to the gate. The FAA will investigate. Southwest Airlines released a statement prioritizing safety.

Starting point is 01:48:04 Our customers arrived at Houston Hobby on another aircraft approximately three hours To the gate, the FAA will investigate Southwest Airlines released a statement prioritizing safety. Our customers arrived at Houston Hobby on another aircraft approximately three hours behind schedule. We apologize for the inconvenience of the delay, but place our highest priority on ultimate safety for our customers and employees. Vinny. Boeing has become the DJ Khaled of airline mishap. And another one.

Starting point is 01:48:24 It just doesn't stop. We're the best. No, you're not. Yeah, no, and another one. It just doesn't stop. We're the best. No you're not. Yeah, no you're not. You're the worst. And you guys remember about a month ago, I said sitting right here, it's going to be only a matter of time till, God forbid, something bad happens. And it's like every week, every week, literally, there's another mishap with Boeing airplanes. They're falling apart. And I wanted to ask you, PBD, when it comes to the, because you interviewed the lawyer, right? He was sitting here, you guys had your one-on-one, do you believe that this guy, what was his name? The guy, the whistleblower that suicided himself. I don't believe it.

Starting point is 01:48:58 I 100% believe somebody of a powerful nature off the guy, made it look like he killed himself, and somebody told me the other day a really good point that lawyer now he's saying you represent this client you're saying oh yeah 100% he killed himself how do you know it almost it seems as if you were paid aftermath to shut up just let it go here's some money just say that he was so did you believe this guy when he sat here and told him very curious I mean the commentary was terrible of what people said about him The way he was giving his answers like what do you like like he seemed like a nice guy but at the same time some of the stuff that he was saying he says no he was always a

Starting point is 01:49:35 Boing fan. I said is he a man of faith was he a man of faith? And he says yeah, he was a man of faith I said then why would a man of faith commit suicide if he believes in God you you know Well, I was he pretty optimistic guy. Yes, so why did you man of faith commit suicide if he believes in God? You know, well, was he a pretty optimistic guy? Yes. So why did you guys ask him to stay for one more day? I think it was in New Orleans or wherever the deposition was. So why did you ask him to stay one more day?

Starting point is 01:49:54 Well, he chose to do that himself, and then when they called his mom, mom and dad said hey, he really wanted to come home, and there's just a lot of weird stories with that. Now he's not the only one. There's another guy. They're representing multiple whistleblowers, not just one person. So it's not like the level of dirt that maybe they're doing something dirty. I don't know about that. Could a Boeing come to them and offer something on the side and play dirty? Of course they could do something like that. The company lost how much money over this incident did you did you see it? Can you tap and boing market cap? I think the number we did was 40 billion dollars 40 billion

Starting point is 01:50:30 Yeah, they lost nearly go to go to market cap Can you go to market cap go six months go six months? Okay? Yeah, they lost 40 50 40 billion dollars, so so it doesn't so when people are like you guys are crazy They would never, I don't think people understand, whacking one guy that's making you lose $40 billion, because look at the timing. He just killed himself, suicide himself, and now every week planes are falling apart, falling apart, falling apart. Everything that he said, corroborates everything that he's saying. They can't shut down all the planes. They can't ground all these flights

Starting point is 01:51:05 They'd go they'd go bankrupt. I want to hear the FAA You know research on this because there's two sides to it The first side is we have got whistleblowers saying that there are quality issues at Boeing on new planes that are being sold to US Airlines that we are sitting on flying from here to there Yeah Which scares the hell out of you the second part of it when the united and i said this before on the podcast when that united flight lost a wheel it was improperly attached by the ground crew they changed the tire on the plane

Starting point is 01:51:38 and they didn't they didn't they didn't it was put in place and it wasn't bolted down so the plane goes down the runway takes off and the and the and the wheel fell off and the wheel just like whoops Fred's on the ground. Hey, I'm back from lunch. I'm gonna bolt that thing down. Where's flight 270. It's right there, dude Yeah, my god, there's the tire and and so the question you have How much of the how much of this is Tom the fact that fact that, you know, when you go, you think about a car, you see it everywhere, and you're like, oh, I'm going to buy a Bronco. I don't remember selling Broncos, and I was like, you see Broncos everywhere. How much of this is the fact that the moment this story came out, now every week there's

Starting point is 01:52:15 a new story? Or was it the fact that these stories were always there, we just never paid attention to it? I think that some of these were there. Certainly not... Dude. Certainly not blame shooting out and and the and the which was an engine failure was doing what it is

Starting point is 01:52:31 horrible bomb but there's another side to this is that is the airlines squeezing all lot of profit out of things and they've had very contentious uh... labor negotiations with the mechanics unions and i think you've got some sloppy maintenance that have been happening on here then stand on one hand you got bowing and the other hand you get airlines

Starting point is 01:52:54 trying to squeeze profit out and sloppy maintenance if you don't there's two sides to this this now i think both sides scare the hell out of me the sloppy maintenance here's the hell out of me the sloppy maintenance scares the hell out of me more Than the than the Boeing aircraft at this time This is like bullying stuff like this if I'll spirit Airlines this makes spirit Airlines now Like I would do a commercial and be like spirit Airlines. Yes. Our staff is rude and yes, we even charge you for Yes, we even charge you for emotional baggage, but hey, our shit doesn't fall apart a 30,000 feet.

Starting point is 01:53:26 Spirit Airlines. Spirit Airlines. The airline that can't afford to crash. And then another thing to consider is the stock buybacks. You follow the money here, but in 2017 during the Trump tax cut, a lot of companies were flush with cash and they didn't use it to invest into R&D or into improving workers, what do you call it? The training or whatever. The training, exactly.

Starting point is 01:53:55 Or anything like that. They went and lined their pockets and their decision. And then Boeing, they were more interested in their stock price going up than their plane staying up. So this is on the airlines, this is on the CEO, this is on the manufacturing, this is also on... Everybody's a blame here. And then the coup de grace, now everybody's got a smartphone and social media and they

Starting point is 01:54:19 can just post it, boom, and it hits the airwaves. And they better act right or one of these guys are going out of business. Fortunately, fortunately the FAA is a government agency and the Secretary of Transportation, his past work experience, he has a PhD in aeronautical, oh no, I'm sorry, he was a small-town mayor, I misread that. Yeah, horrible. Yeah, so Rob, can you pull up that video, the two2 million home video? Check this out. This is a Newsweek story.

Starting point is 01:54:47 Squatter bars landlord from his own $2 million home. So Squatter, Sang Kim, has barred, this is crazy to think about. Landlord, Just Karan Singh, from his $2 million Washington home after refusing to pay rent for two years. What? Two years. Singh, a Bello landlord, is holding second protest rally on Saturday after two years of Kim living in his rental property without paying rent.

Starting point is 01:55:14 This rally will call for Kim to leave the property immediately. While Singh legally owns the home, he's been forced to stay off the premises due to a temporary protection order. This is insane to me by Kim. This means he must stay a thousand feet away from the property he legally owns. Dude. During the rally, family members and landlord rights supporters are expected to show en masse numbers and a GoFundMe supportive saying has so far raised $1,000 but a goal of $100,000.

Starting point is 01:55:43 Go ahead, Rob. Play this clip. I'm in Bellevue right now in the Woodbridge neighborhood. There are dozens of protesters getting ready for a massive rally. This is the house here right now where St. Kim is staying, allegedly not paying the rent for months now, costing small mom and pop landlord Thousands of dollars this neighborhood is absolutely Irate here right now look at this

Starting point is 01:56:12 You've got folks here taking photos. I know you up saying hey, how you doing? Look at this. They're getting really personal here right now signs that say saying can leave now dirty saying in Fix broken system Saying stop embarrassing your family video of him go a little bit forward keep going keep going keep going keep going They're going to the house. Okay, wait Now right there go ahead Dude I would just want your side of theassing. Dude I would be in the house.

Starting point is 01:56:46 You can't just walk to your side of the story. What are your thoughts on the protesters? I would get a beehive and throw it. Aren't you the one technically trespassing? There you have it. He came to the door and says he's going to call the police on me for trespassing. Open the door now! I mean you've got angry neighbors here.

Starting point is 01:57:07 Looks like people are resorting to revigilante justice potentially at this point. I mean, you've got a lot of angry neighbors, so... What do you do in that situation? I would break a window, I'd get a beehive, and I would break the window and throw it inside and have them run out. You can't do that. I'd do whatever the hell I want.

Starting point is 01:57:23 Listen, bad policies of consequences. And this is freaking- Be stung, Tom. The state of what? State of what? Is it Washington? Washington? Washington? Washington. Is it, wow, is that a blue liberal state? Oh, wait, Seattle. They built that nice area downtown to give comfort for the rioters. And yeah, yeah, yeah, so you expect this guess what folks? There's no property tax there and there's less rain and no property tax in Texas. Come on down move somewhere else You'll find tech jobs in Austin housing prices are down in Austin

Starting point is 01:57:54 Do you want to live someplace and you want to rent your home out and this is though the way the law supports? It doesn't support you watch how much he lost. He lost $80,000 in outpaying rents. Sure Yes, he's paying for he has to pay for those he loses the house But wait, he's caught up and has paid in full according to Newsweek on his property taxes That he has faithfully continued to pay on a poem that all he did was rent it So I actually have a logistical question here. This guy didn't pay rent for two years Does he not leave the house? Does he not go to work? When the guy's not there, can't you just get in there and lock him out,

Starting point is 01:58:31 change the locks? I have no idea. Hire a locksmith? Not without a... You can, if the sheriff will come and put the eviction order on the door. And it has like 14 days, 30 days. And on that 30th day in the presence of a sheriff administrator, you can now come in and complete the process. You make a fake call to a locksmith, hey I'm locked out, bing, bing, bang, change the locks, bing, bang, we all know this situation. You don't even have to pretend you're in person. There's gotta be a way around this.

Starting point is 01:59:00 Is that the guy, Rob? Two years. Because the video I sent you, the video doesn't work anymore. Yeah, I think that looks like the same door. Go ahead. You know, he doesn't understand the system here in the state. Get out come in! Get out come in! How is the Korean community interpreting what's happening here?

Starting point is 01:59:20 They are not aware of this. They're usually landlords or hard-working business people. They would never imagine a Korean descendant taking advantage of this poor broken system like this and embarrass not only his family but entire community. So I was chanting, if you're not going to pay, you shouldn't stay there. And I also called them out as con men. Sagi-kun. Sagi-kun means con men in Korean. What this is going to do is I'm going to provide high resolution picture of them and ask all

Starting point is 01:59:47 the Korean medias to post this on their newsletter and online website and actually have them get famous. Every restaurants he goes, every Korean restaurants he goes, every Korean markets he goes, so everybody recognizes him. That way he's not only embarrassed to move out of of that place but you move out of the state. Vinny I'm gonna trigger you here. What did he say? I'm here rightfully and this isn't no no he the owner doesn't understand the system in the state this is no difference from the ranting that that illegal immigrant did trying to explain to people,

Starting point is 02:00:26 giving them a case study how to squat. Now he also seemed to forget that he had some child support, some other issues, and then he's been arrested and now he says he's being persecuted. But whoops, guess what? There's more pages in the law book that I guess he forgot to read. Yeah, that dirt bag. So by the way, shout out to you Tom for finding that thing during the weekend. What's going on in Florida? What? What's on it? What? Rhonda Santas. Oh yeah. You have that? I love it. And what, what,

Starting point is 02:00:57 what do you say? Rob, I sent it to you on Slack. Here it is right here. What's it say? Explain this Tom. So there's an alligator that got through it. What's it say explain this Tom? So apparently it's not gonna work if you don't show the picture right you got to show the picture Yeah, there we go so apparently a Homeowner had a front door open with the screen door closed or a back door something screen door because spring in Florida, very nice out, letting some fresh air came in. What also came in with the fresh air was a seven and a half foot alligator that just leaned on the screen door

Starting point is 02:01:31 with his 300 pound body and just kind of clunk, got inside. And DeSantis has reposted it with, big guy must have missed the memo, no squatting in Florida. That's funny. Good for him for showing a little bit of humor. I'm gonna go to the last story here and then we'll wrap up is this one This is a big story Trump says states should chart their own path on Abortion this is the reason why this a big story is because 2024 election. This will be one the top five issues

Starting point is 02:01:59 For this topic is this the video Rob go ahead and play please Many people have asked me what my position is on abortion and abortion rights, especially since I was proudly the person responsible for the ending of something that all legal scholars, both sides, wanted and in fact demanded be ended. Roe v. Wade. They wanted, ended. It must be remembered that the Democrats are the radical ones on this position because they support abortion up to and even beyond the ninth month. The concept of having an abortion in the later months and even execution after birth, and that's exactly what it is.

Starting point is 02:02:41 The baby is born, the baby is executed after birth is Unacceptable and almost everyone agrees with that There you go. That's his position. Let me read this a little bit more Trump said on Saturday That he welcomed the prospect of going to jail for That's a different story for President Trump said abortion should be left to the states Avoiding taking a position on the number of weeks at which the procedure should be banned as he tries to navigate an issue that has animated Democrats. He explained that in the video, Trump stands as unlikely to please religious conservatives

Starting point is 02:03:14 who want him to embrace tougher restrictions and one prominent group quickly express its disappointment. So obviously you're not going to be able to please everybody, but he did give his position on where he stands with us. Tom, your thoughts on this? Well first of all, I think you know I stand, you know, I believe I believe we should protect life and when you start making laws around it you better be careful because there is a slippery slope that's there once you create a law and you put it in the hands of the government you allow them to wield it, to amend it, and to change it, which is what happens, just ask the Netherlands.

Starting point is 02:03:48 So number one, I'm pretty clear on my stance around life and the preciousness of life. The second part is he is taking a very constitutional position, saying the states decide state things and allowing each state and the will of the people to vote on that so he makes a clear position on Abortion, but then he turns around later and points out not differently so it's not a but He's like the will of the people the states will decide and guess what that's where our Constitution is written by the way This is going to be, you know, navigating through complex issues, a skill set most people don't have. And this is a very, very complex and sensitive issue.

Starting point is 02:04:36 If you don't navigate through this in a sensitive fashion, you could also lose some of the conservative women Votes that you're going to need you have to share what you believe in but do it in a way where it's sensible and respecting the other side and at the same time showing that you have certain values and principles that you're now willing to compromise and Knowing that no matter what position you take you're going to be criticized But some group and you have to understand that comes with the territory and knowing that no matter what position you take, you're going to be criticized. But some group, and you have to understand that comes with the territory, there is nothing, there is not a single position you can take when it comes onto the topic of abortion that

Starting point is 02:05:15 you're going to get 100% support. Nothing. Whatever you take, take a position, be sensible about it, be respectful about it, and then navigate through the questions that he's going to get in the debates, in the interviews, when he starts going through campaigning. This will be a top three, top five issue in 2024 election. Adam? Yeah, well I'll tell you this. This is a complete losing issue for Republicans, especially amongst women. And the way that he just said, look, I'm in, I'm out, easy, simple, leave it up to the states, let them deal with it.'s the best thing that Trump can do don't get bogged down on this issue

Starting point is 02:05:48 When I was interviewing all the women at model volleyball, I asked them what's the most important issue to you? I think you need to be specific when you interviewed all the men and women at model volleyball but go to 99 women one trans woman, but Frank I asked them what their number one issue was. Yeah, I mean the number one issue in the Country right now is immigration the border everything that's going on there inflation is out there Everything that's going on the culture wars debt gun rights everything to women this was their number one issue in fact nationally One in eight people in America. This is their number one issue and In fact, nationally, one in eight people in America,

Starting point is 02:06:25 this is their number one issue, and the vast majority of them are women. So Trump has to win the soccer moms, the independents, the movable middle in order to win this election, especially in the Midwest. This is a losing issue for Republicans, and if Trump just has to delicately deal with this, get in, get out, don't make this the issue

Starting point is 02:06:44 that loses the election. By the way, Democrats in 2007, 63% of Democrats said that this was for women believed in the legality of abortion. That's now up to 80%. Republicans have stayed steady at 39 to 38. So that hasn't moved much. This is a major, major issue for women. Meanwhile, don't get involved in it.

Starting point is 02:07:09 Meanwhile, meanwhile, the governor that went even further right than this pre announcing was the Santa's right? Six weeks. Yeah, six weeks. But recently, the Santa's woes donors in South Florida and holds this fire against Trump. This is a political article a couple days ago. Governor DeSantis convened a retreat for his donors in South Florida focusing on securing Florida's future and expressing gratitude to his supporters.

Starting point is 02:07:37 With attendees reminded multiple times of the three-year timeline to advance the state's conservative agenda, one donor, Robert Salvador, recounted the emphasis on leveraging the remaining time to uphold Florida as a beacon of freedom. Despite the nearby Trump fundraiser, DeSantis avoided direct references to the former president and concentrated on Florida's conservative priorities. Side-stepping discussions about his own presidential aspirations, critics like Dennis Lennox voiced concerns over the retreat's timing timing suggesting it might detract from supporting Trump's fundraising endeavors, so Here's a question I got for you guys and Tom. I'll come to you first

Starting point is 02:08:14 We know Biden raised 90 million dollars Okay, and fundraising in one day Trump raised I believe 50 million dollars on a Saturday In one day, Trump raised, I believe, $50 million on a Saturday fundraiser. And he came out and he said it took three presidents to raise $25 million at an event. I think that's the event that took place. Yeah, in New York, with Stephen Colbert and Lizzo. With Obama, with Clinton and himself. He says it took just one person to raise $50 million in a day. Former President Trump raised over $50 million on Saturday event fund raise 117 seats

Starting point is 02:08:46 Guests donating as much as eight hundred and fourteen thousand dollars each Aimed at closing his campaign cash deficit against Republican Joe Biden who holds a hundred ninety two million dollar in hand So while this is taking place Do you think there's gonna be any chance and is it does it matter anyways? Where the Santas is gonna come out and say I support Trump for 2024 Tom. I believe he will. I believe that he's taking steps right now respectfully holding his own rally where he's raising money for his gubernatorial campaign and for and for

Starting point is 02:09:24 his administration and for the state of Florida on one hand and then choosing not to interfere with the presidential candidate Trump's things going on across town. I think that's good. Now, it would have been a short walk simply to say, you know, this is about conservative Florida and where we're going and to get a conservative United States not far from this spot there is another rally going on that's all he would have had to say you know he could have called tipping the hat you know kind of tip the hat a little bit yeah I think he could have

Starting point is 02:09:54 done that but at least they chose to keep the hatchet buried and not go war to war with each other because Trump may have a cash deficit but if you look at the polls he does not have an opinion deficit and it appears to have some very strong winning arguments on immigration, inflation, and business and so we'll see how it unfolds, but I believe to your question, yes, ultimately DeSantis will maybe it won't be a full scream of support, but will I've been certain I express it. I agree with Tom that it'd be smart if in the next couple months he does say listen all the all history aside I do support him because think

Starting point is 02:10:36 about it Trump within four years gone stay doesn't whatever that whatever happens in the next four years you know DeSantis with that that's the that's the future and if you're not getting the MA crowd behind you, then it's going to be, it's going to be, it's going to be trouble. Adam, what do you think? Maybe I'm missing something here, but what does Trump give a shit about Ron DeSantis at this point? And he still lives in Florida.

Starting point is 02:10:54 He still lives in Florida. DeSantis, respect to you. You've done a great job. If I'm Trump, the last thing I'm thinking about the Santa's point, they're up 10 points in Florida. They, Florida used to be a purple state every once in a while. Look born and raised in Florida. I don't understand the importance of winning Florida.

Starting point is 02:11:11 How many electoral votes 27 votes in Florida. I think so. This is now officially a red state. Shout out to the Santas Trump. At this point, why do you maybe I'm missing the point here. Thanks to the Santas. Appreciate what you've done. Trump's moving on to states that are actually swing States. Florida's no longer as things a swing state, but it's almost irrelevant for his political future. Do you think backing him, like I said, and having that mega crowd be

Starting point is 02:11:40 like, okay, what if the San this once I want to get, you're asking if the Santas needs Trump. Well, that's what I'm saying. One million. Is he going to back Trump needs the Santas? Yeah, no, that's what we're saying is do you think you think the Santas is going to come out and say, listen, I support Trump? He had that was a question. That was a question. Pat asked me, he said, do you think Ron DeSantis will come out? Yeah, did it. And for sure, let's not forget. Let's not forget. He already did, but the way he did it, he did it in his own like a backhand way he did it. I'm talking about like, do you think he's going to come out campaigning like Vivek going out doing that? I don't know. But I think

Starting point is 02:12:15 what he's saying is a very good point. I don't think he needs any of it. By the way, here's another story from the Daily Caller. GOP registered voters outnumbered Dems by nearly 1 million in Florida. You have that story right there? The only influence would be if he had a national presence. Like, for example, DeSantis has a Florida presence. I think Newsom has a national presence. You know, it's a different, when I'm saying Newsom, I mean, Biden's going to need Newsom to campaign for him because Newsom is a national guy. I don't know if DeSantis is yet.

Starting point is 02:12:48 He could be, but I don't think he is yet. I think that's really your point because Gavin Nusense has basically put himself out there in a way that, you know, you went to China, you went out and things like this, and so when Nusense runs for president, I think that- Did you call him Gavin Nusense or Gavin Nuscombe? Listen, there's ceilings- And by the way, I have to- I gotta go tell you this. I actually like

Starting point is 02:13:08 the DeSantis not running in a big way and I Love the policies he comes out with the way he leads a state. It makes me feel very safe as a parent Makes me feel very safe as a as a business owner today tomorrow He can change it up But you know what he's done when he goes up and comes out with policies what either with social media You know you know nowadays as of January 1st of next year Anybody under the age of 14 he's taking removing everything off of social media if you're under the age of 14 you live in Florida great and the only way you can be on social media at 14 and 15 is with parents' approval. So without parents' approval, you cannot use social media in Florida until you're 16 years

Starting point is 02:13:49 old. Tell me you don't support that. Can you imagine? He eliminates an argument with the parent. These are some of the policies that he's doing where it's like, listen, you protect the kids, we got your back, keep doing what you're doing, you're a phenomenal governor, respect to you. Yeah, the data supports the governor in terms of the impact on young teens. You gotta give him respect.

Starting point is 02:14:07 I mean, listen, obviously, you know, when things get heated and all that stuff, you gotta give him respect on what he's done with this. Rob, let's get to the end of it. It's 1130, I wanna wrap up. And so for the people that were part of the raffle, Rob, this is the first hundred people that placed the orders 50 plus To get the Jesse water sign get it together book That's gonna be coming out to you if you want to go ahead and give three raffles if you can do that
