30 seconds. Did you ever think you would make it? I said I'm supposed to take sweetly. I know this life meant for me. Is that really, was that really plain? The Vegas? Yeah, they did it. And you did it.

My glasses on. How does this look, by the way? I'm curious. It looked cool. You see a little slot machine at the end? I liked it. You know, do you want to talk about what you did last night? Tom?

You want to tell him, Tom. Don't look at him. Don't look at him. This wasn't me. I behaved. They went to after hour. Tom last night. Playing craps on the table in his boxers?

That's not even the worst part. The worst part was when you called me at 3 o'clock, said, come grab Tom. He's playing $1,000 slot machines. And I go down and Tom is saying he's got a paper and pen and a board. He's doing the math on how many polls they'll get. By the way, he's $188,000 of one of them. But then lost almost half a million.

And it was like, no, the Lord's telling me. No, that was a prop bet. It was a prop bet. I bet that AOC could identify Iran on the math. And he kept yelling words talk, ladies scream. Words talk. Ladies scream like, Mom. He got. Actually.

All right. That's a new T-Shire. We got a few things to talk about yesterday. Jack Dorsey let go of. I think 4,000 people in the most unique way possible and a most honest way possible. And he tweeted about it that got 50 million views. And you have to see for some of you guys that are seeing what's going on with AI. And he just kind of came up with his company block.

They used to be called Square. We'll talk about that. Hillary Clinton yesterday went up there and she made an argument why that picture of Jelaine Maxwell being at her daughter's wedding was a fake, but she actually accepted it. Said she was there and deposition took six hours. Somebody, what's her name? Lauren Bolbert took a picture, sent it to Benny. Benny posted it to have to posit. There's some thoughts on that as well on whether that was a good idea or not.

I think Bill Clinton, her husband is being deposed today, Rob. Am I saying that correct? Correct. It's going to happen today. And then Bill Gates had another rough last 48 hours. and Lutnik, there was a picture that came up that allegedly they tried to protect from being leaked and this picture looks strange

and some are saying, wait a minute, was he on the island with his kids? Was he not on the island with his kids? Now, Comer is coming out saying that maybe he's going to be helped as well to come up and be deposed to answer those questions. Who knows what's going on? World Economic Forum CEO had to resign and he had to quit. Netflix, last minute, they pulled their deal.

They're like, we're not going to be able to compete. Paramount's going to be coming in. There's a bunch of stuff that Larry Ellison and David Ellison are about to pick up Paramount. That means CNN could potentially be changing in a major way. There's communication being leaked, email and text communication from CNN employees saying we are effed at CNN. Can you imagine how some of the people feel right now working over there? There's a lot of scary things that's going on at CNN. Some like it, some don't like it.

Who knows what's going to happen? I think somebody even had to pay a $2.8 billion cancellation fee, Rob, if I'm not mistaken, that had to be paid to Netflix, right? The $2.8 billion. Tom, I'm speaking to you. Yes. The $2.8 billion that had to be paid on. Yeah, we'll talk about it.

It's called a breakup fee. Yeah, the $2.5 billion. Yeah. So that was Tom, again, we have a rule with Tom. We're talking about making a shirt for Tom that says, Tom, Tom, because Tom is, honestly, how accurate is that? One file, it'll sell. You have to say his name three times or also you.

If you run into him, but if you call him BizDock, he shines within the first second, he'll say hi to you. But when we say time, we got to say three times here. All right. So then aside from that, we'll talk about the Netflix. We'll talk about the Block and Square. Mondani's got some stuff that's going on. Newsom's got some stuff that's going on.

What do you call it? Jonathan Majors is apparently making an acting comeback for a movie with Daily Wire, which, by the way, if that's true, and I think Ben came out said it's real. I think Jonathan Major is a good actor. And that's a good thing to see stuff like that happening, where guys are comfortable going back and forth. on doing different movies. And then aside from that, we got some Iran news.

Apparently, you know, a lot of people are saying that the communist China is getting Iran's back. But the report just came out two hours ago that not only are U.S. pulling people out, guess who else is pulling people out of Iran right now? China. Weird. China is telling their own people, listen, get out. Some's about to happen to Iran. And who knows, they've been saying this for a while.

So whether that's going to be happening right now or later, we don't know. And then Robert De Niro, for some of you guys, are big fans of his movies, Heat, or what is it, Godfather, or a couple of the comedy movies that he did. He was very emotional. I know you guys are, you know, feeling bad about it. He was very emotional. Yeah, he was very emotional because of what happened with what do you call it, with Trump. He's very, he wants, he's got some advice for you guys. It's resist, resist, resist, resist Trump is what he had to say.

and hopefully you guys will listen to it because he was very, very sentimental, emotional about it. And then the Hulk, who's the other guy? The Hulk, Ruffalo or Mark Ruffalo. Marky. Marky, yeah, he was furious, you know, about the well-taxed, saying, listen, we got to, we got taxed the rich people in New York, and we'll see what his thoughts are.

Ted Sarando CEO of Netflix, went to the White House. Some are saying they meet with the president. Everyone's saying he didn't meet with the president. And Netflix, some people are sitting there saying, look, Trump said remove Susan Rice. off your board and she started it based on what Tom was telling me yesterday and then they didn't. So because of not pulling them off and what comes back to it is, you know, maybe that was one of the reasons some people are speculating.

Who knows? Who knows what the reasonings are? But we will get into that. Okay. Having said that before we get into all these stories, Rob, what do we have here? Which one is this? USA Collection. Okay.

So USA Collection is what we got right now. Rob, if you want to play the clip, go forward. If you love this country, show it. Lead with pride in the Valuetainment USA collection. Design for freedom thinkers, built for everyday leaders. Red, white, blue. Purpose. Wear what you believe in.

They're working on it right now. What's the issue with audio? It's coming through with one channel. Which means what? So people are able to hear it in, it's coming through mono, so they're able to hear in one channel, not the other side. So right side of your earphones, you can hear it,

left side you can't, but they're adjusting right now. So people are watching with earbuds on their phone, Didn't we test that before? We were testing that before. Yes. I'm not sure what happened here. Guys, can we get an update? Can one of you guys come in and give us an update?

We're live. So this is a live show and stuff like this happens. Come and tell us something. And I hear reverb. Tell me what's going on? We'll figure out the right channel going out right now. We're going to double it up. Okay.

All right. So let's see what's going to happen, folks. Stick around. We're trying to figure out of it. Rob, when you're hearing the audio has it sound. How bad is it? It sounds good in one channel. It's just the other channel.

It's not coming through on right now. Okay. All right. So then let's get right into it. Let's do which story should we start off with. If that's the case, we'll get to the Hillary Clinton one. Let's start off with the Bill Gates story here. So Bill Gates, another rough week for him.

A story came out with Bill Gates having to apologize to his staff over Epstein-Ties. Okay? So he had to come out and apologize to his staff about. Epstein ties and as well as apparently two other Russian girls that came out. I don't know what these Russian girls stories are. And then his wife had to. Anyways, just watch this clip here for yourself. Turned out of Microsoft founder Bill Gates, his eye-opening apology for his relationship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. In a town hall meeting with employees, Gates admitting to two affairs with Russian women and what he says about the photos of him in the Epstein files.

Here's Pierre Thomas. Tonight, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates revealing more. damaging information about his personal life and admitting to a series of stunning lapses and judgment in building a relationship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Today, the fallout growing as Gates was pressed by employees at a Gates Foundation town hall. According to the Wall Street Journal, which revealed audio of the meeting, Gates told employees it was a huge mistake to spend time with Epstein. He acknowledged that his relationship with Epstein began after Epstein was convicted of soliciting a

minor. And he claimed that he, one of the wealthiest men in the world, did not properly research Epstein's background. It would have revealed his sort of past. Knowing what I know now makes it, you know, a hundred times worse. Gase acknowledged his association probably helped Epstein rehabilitate his image. And he revealed other damning specifics, saying the men flew together on a private jet and that they hung out in Germany, France, New York, and Washington. But Gates was adamant that he never witnessed any criminal activity. But Gates did acknowledge he had affairs with two Russian women. And Gates also addressed these photos,

saying there were pictures Epstein asked him to take with his assistance. His ex-wife recently saying Gates needs to answer questions. Those questions are for those people and for even my ex-husband. They need to answer to those things, not me. And I am so happy to be away from all the muck. David Gates' indiscretions contributed to the failure of his marriage. And tonight, another powerful man suffering the consequences of his ties to Epstein. Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers resigning from Harvard because of his relationship with Epstein.

David? Pierre Thomas, who continues to cover the Epstein case. Embarrassing. By the way, all these things used to be a conspiracy theory if you think about it a few years ago. And now all of a sudden, Larry Summers, oh, no, no, Harvard, that would never happen to us. Benny your thoughts on this? I mean, Adam, I have to go right to you. And I know I brought this up a couple weeks ago.

Do you remember when we're like, is this, is this Epstein thing on the top of every? Nobody cares. And this is the number one story, Adam, because look at how deep this web of disgusting, demonic people are. And my, I feel so bad for his wife, Pat. She's been telling us for how long. She goes, the one time I met Jeffrey Epstein, he was appurant. He was evil personified. This is an educated woman.

I don't know her faith. I don't know if she's Christian. I don't know if she's Buddhist. I don't know. I don't care. For her to say that she felt that goes deep. And I want to say one thing, he's a liar. Bill Gates is a liar. And this is the same person that all of us were told to trust for COVID, for putting this experimental freaking vaccine in our bodies. And I'm going to get to that story later on, Pat, cancer is up, colon cancer is up, turbo cancer is up. People are dying left and right. And we trusted these people. And I'm so happy you said that, Pat. We were called that name. those names that we were these tin foil hat crazy people.

We've been screaming this forever, and we were told to shut up. We were kicked off of freaking YouTube. We were kicked off of social media. And now everybody's slowly coming around. People are getting fired. People are stepping down. None of them are going to jail.

Okay, I think it's disgusting. And Adam, we talked about this yesterday when you're like, Vinnie, I don't see the proof. Adam, this is what we caught them doing. Imagine what we didn't catch them doing, because if they knew they could get away with that, imagine in those rooms. Imagine those poor freaking kids.

kids getting flown around. Okay, maybe this time he was with, you know, young rushing hookers. What else? Maybe, maybe this one month, he was into something deeper, something more disgusting, okay? And it drives me crazy. I'm so happy it's starting to come out now. But these people, these demons need to be held accountable, Pat. Not just, not just, oh, I'm stepping down for my job, and I'm sorry. No, no. Accountability, jail time, and more consequences if need be. Yeah. Tom, your thoughts. So I don't need to say more about Bill Gates. There used to be publications in Silicon Valley, Valley Wagon, others, and you'd be able to go to like Bucks Diner and places that were in Silicon Valley. And let me explain why that's relevant.

There was always these rumors that Gates had this other side of him. And the phrase people used to use, you know, there's another side to Bill Gates. You know that, right? There's this guy who appears on the big screen and actually helped Apple at Steve Jobs' request with some financing, did that, and that was good. And then there was the other side, the other side, the other the other bill. And so I don't want to say more about that other than to say there's, where there's smoke, there's fire, and a lot of people talking about this and rumors. And now I have the guy confessing with the Russian girls and other things. It's just gooey. But I'll tell you who I want to, I want to praise. I want to praise the poise of Melinda French

Gates. Melinda French Gates is, you know, Pat and I lived in Dallas for about eight years before moving to Florida. And she graduated from Ursula and Academy, which is a, wonderful school, private school that is in Dallas. She gave money to the school to create a science center. And interestingly enough, you find this interesting, Adam. It was named the French Family Science Center at Ursulin. And she also gave them the largest grant they ever had in history, like in 2005, 2006. There have been supplemental grants, also a center for professional career development. And so she's been pouring into these girls there. So when we're sitting in Dallas. We could read news stories and talk to people. And we felt like we really had a good picture of

Melinda French. And I just, I feel like America needs to give her a collective hug. She was married to a guy that's under the spotlight and she called it the muck. And you know what, Melinda, wherever you are, thank you for what you've done. I hope this doesn't cause you to shy back from your public service and all the things that you've done. Anybody in your situation would probably want to sit back with a cup of coffee and pull the drapes and just and just ignore the world. But what she did and what she's at and the poise in these interviews, I got a lot of respect for her. The Hyundai-Alantra hybrid inspires a special type of love, the type that makes you slow down and enjoy the ride with best-in-class fuel efficiency and a best-end-class fuel efficiency and a best

in-class new car warranty, it's made for the long run, wherever the road takes you next. Because some relationships are built to go the distance. It's that Hyundai-A-Lontra type of love. So, you know, they say the truth will set you free. So I'm totally understanding that this truth will come out and the roosters will come home to Roosiers, as they say. You know, last night we were talking about on the plane on the way here about the shows that we watch in the 90s, right? We're talking about Save the Bell. We're talking about Beverly Hills 9-2101-0 and the and Bell World's place and all that. What am I, what's my point? In the 90s, you know, it was here today, gone tomorrow. None of this stuff would come out. If you did stuff in the 90s in 2000s,

there wasn't one thing that we all have today, and that's the internet and that's cell phones. Yeah. Everything's going to be exposed. So if you do something stupid and wrong, back in the day, you could get away with it. You could stuff the news media. Now you could bury that. Now everything's coming out. And I'm cool. with that. I'm not defending any of these people. Whether it's Epstein, whether it's Bill Cosby, whether it's Diddy, whether it's Weinstein. All these things that people

were doing pre-internet, it's all coming out. And so what's my point? Today, young people are going to learn a lesson. We see people doing stuff on the internet. What do they say? The internet's going to last forever. So what's a lesson that young people can learn from the Epstein's of the world, the Cosby's of the world? You do something

stupid. It's going to be on the internet forever. The thing that's going on here is, if there was the internet or social media 15, 20, 30 years ago, all this stuff would have come out then. Yeah. It's all coming out now. The question is, is it all too little too late? We're going to find out. Yeah, but going to the point from Adam, just from emails that are legitimate Department of Justice emails, the guy is disgusting. He, like, Adam, put this on your head. He gave his, allegedly, gave his wife an SDD from Russian hookers and then was asking Jeffrey

Epstein, how do I slip, give me some medicine. So I can slip in her drink. I'll sleep in her drink. without her knowing to fix her. This is the guy that with the WHO and all these people, we let this guy take care of our health. And anytime you try to talk about him negatively, everybody, all the mainstream media, all the talk shows, made us look like we were insane. Remember that's allegedly.

You got to say legend. I said allegedly five times. No, Tom, I said allegedly, it's in the Department of Justice emails. It's in these emails. So going back to my point, Adam, can you admit that all this time that what we were saying, we were all told that we were crazy?

We were on how many things, Adam? Go back to 9-11. And go back to JFK, go back to Trump getting strong the head. All this stuff adds up to where we're sitting here screaming like, hey, guys, into the void. We're telling you, we're telling you evil exists and it's in our face. And I don't mind you, this idiot Epstein, how many photos and videos and everything? You know why he did Adam?

To have dirt on all of them to freaking blackmail them. That's it. I'm with you. I'm not denying. I want to move on. Guys, I want to move on. I got you. So we'll do that.

And it's a regular thing. For me, by the way, one thing with Melinda Gates, that she has become this unsung hero of being such an honest lady, whatever, give me a flipping break. You dated the guy, you became a billionaire, and you agreed on the pre-up to allow him to meet with his ex. So don't give me this bullshit nobility stuff. Right.

Okay, don't play that game with us, the audience. Oh, my God, I am so noble. How many wives would agree on a pre-nup to see you can meet with your ex-girlfriend once a year and do whatever the hell you want to do to her? You tell me who does that. And that's been proven. This agreement allowed Gates to maintain a close relationship with his ex with whom he shared intellectual interests, such as discussing biotechnology.

Yeah, we call that biotechnology. There's a lot of other words I can use for that. And so, yeah, I don't play her. A part of what, you know, with Hillary, when I watched Hillary yesterday, we all know Bill has done what Bill is done. Okay. We all know what, you know, where Bill has been and how many times he's been. And, you know, she came out and she addressed all the questions. but it was a tough day for Hillary because it was deposition six hours.

I think the total time was there. They asked a bunch of different questions. She even said afterwards, they asked me about Pizza Gate. I don't know about Pizza Gate. It's one of the most disgusting conspiracy theories, whatever. Is this at Rob? Yes, sir. And in the middle of it, they leaked a picture, but played this of Hillary Clinton going in agreeing to do this.

And she kept saying she wanted to be alive. But go ahead, Rob. It then got at the end quite unusual because I said, started being asked about UFOs and a series of questions about Pizza Gate. Good. One of the most vile, bogus conspiracy theories that was propagated on the internet that was serving as a basis of a member's questions to me. Rob, do you have the clip about them asking her about the picture with Jelaine Maxwell

being at the daughter's wedding? So there's a clip about her being asked and she answered a question within seven seconds, walked away, came back, and gave credit to James Comer, by the way. She was very complimenter of James Comer. But this is when she was asked about the picture that everyone's seen when Juslane Maxwell sat in the aisle, row six or seven, and that picture's gone viral. People are saying, why was she at your daughter's wedding where only 500 people were invited? And you know everybody was vetted.

Go ahead, Rob. message to Sky News. Can I ask, why was Elaine Maxwell, thank you, for the Dr. Chelsea's wedding in 2010? She'd already been mentioned in a civil lawsuit by Virginia Jew free before that. Jeffrey Exce had already been convicted before that. She came as the plus one, the guest of someone who was invited. You know what the follow-up question today is? Who is the first lady?

Who? You're the secretary. Your husband. husband's a president. It's a high profile family on the left. You don't think everyone's getting background checked. You think you can go. This isn't like you're going to Club 11. You're like, yeah, I got a plus one. All right. No, you're going to a wedding of the first lady and the former president's daughter. So you knew she was coming. And there's security. But by the way, she gave credit to James Comer. And then you got later on today, which her husband's going to be deposed. So Tom, where are you at with this with Hillary Clinton? That's the picture, by the with Jolaine Maxwell to the right, if you look back, Rob, we see it right there.

Tom, your thoughts on this. Well, I don't think we learned anything about Hillary Clinton's character. She was on brand for the whole hearing. I mean, that's been her, you know, deny, swerve and things like this. And now it's come out. And it's just elephants in the room that she didn't talk about. It's just, as you correctly pointed out. And I look at it and I think it was a hearing that basically ratified everything that we've

always held as our conclusions over the last five years. after, excuse me, eight years after 2016, and what we now know happened in Russia and et cetera, et cetera. It's just, I think she ratified it. She made no traction. Do you think, Pat, that in even 1% she improved or moved her perception back? Or is it just, you know what?

That's Hillary. That's her. That's her character. That's on brand. Yeah. Do you have any new thoughts about Hillary? Anything else that's all over to see? I think my opinion, she's a liar.

because I sent Rob a couple of emails that were put up from the DOJ that emails from Jeffrey Epstein that said this from him. Hillary Clinton is much prettier in person. If you never met her, how the hell would he know that? Also, look at this. Meetings with Hillary are not easily discreet. When? I know you are close with Hillary,

but if she gets the nomination, you vote for her, I'll effing kill you. I would like to invite you to attend a very intimate fundraising event with Hillary. Okay? And Bill and Hillary were frequent guests at Epstein's The Zorro Ranch after they left the White House. The White House advisor logs,

they revealed the 17 trips, Pat. And then think about Seth Rich. Seth Rich, when she's talking about Pizagate, he's the one that went to WikiLeaks and dropped the dime on all of them and was a whistleblower, and he was murdered in the streets of Washington. So I think she's lying.

She's sticking up for him, Pat. But again, I want to see people go to jail, especially if crimes were committed. I don't think they have a choice, but to do that now. There's two things that needs to happen, in my opinion, because this is leading to Lutnik. And Lutnik, we've been compromised,

of Lutnik. He's very good on camera. He's done a great job. He's built a great company, successful guy. And a picture came out about him with Rob. I think you have the picture. There's a picture that came out. And nobody's saying, no, no, no, this is AI. No, this is AI. No, this is AI. No, this is AI. And then eventually they're like, are those two, maybe that's the one that he went with his wife and his two kids. Well, we don't see the wife and two kids. That is the island that has now been confirmed that that's Jeffrey Epstein and the white shirt and a white pants. And that's Lucknake in the back. And the blue shirt.

That's him. That's him. That part's been confirmed. Everybody and everybody has been checking to see if this is a correct thing that happened or no. Because nowadays, you've got to definitely check to see AI. CBS has confirmed it. GROX confirmed it. A bunch of different AI platforms have confirmed it.

Who knows something else may come out. Now, there's a few things. This could be the event where he took his wife and kids. And maybe his wife and kids weren't there. He said he was only there for an hour. So maybe they're the ones on the other side taking a picture. Maybe. Maybe that's what's going on.

But, you know, when you read the story, I'll read the story to you on page five. And I want to come to you guys on this one here. Oh, I cannot read it because printing didn't do a good job on it. But when you look at this story with Howard Lutnik, Rob, zoom in to see if I can read any of it. Okay, a photo print on Donald Trump, Howard Lonecker, got to go a little bit lower. The picture shows the pedophile walking ahead of the financier at St. James Island, where they visited for a picture. picnic with his wife and his children and his nannies can go a little bit lower.

The picture was located by J-mail, a site run by two tech workers who have created a searchable version of Epstein's Gmail inbox by downloading all of the files. The group posted a link on it to the image which a DOJ file name, the file name was, et cetera, et cetera, does not match the results of DOJ's Epstein website suggesting it had been deleted. So this is the controversy here that they took. it down. Now, why did they take it down? Is it because he's an insider? Is it because he's got a job? So that's the part where, you know, people start saying you're protecting it and they get credible, they get credit. They say, now you see what you're doing. Now you see what you're doing. Now you're

protecting them. And some are even saying that Trump didn't know about it. The DOJ was doing it. And then it's making Trump look bad. No matter what it is, you know, in the UK, when this took place with Andrew, Andrew, they not only, you know, you know, dropped them from the family and now he got arrested, right? And they're going after him as well as the other guy, Mandelson, Madelson, I don't know how to say his name, another guy that had to step down. Yeah, Peter Mandelson, that had to go through. So at this point of the game, you know, there are certain things that you can just look here

while you have a massive issue on this side. Sometimes you just got to go ahead on and talk about it and address and make some decisions. So, Benny, I know you have some opinions on this Howard Lutnik picture that came out. And I know, Adam, you do as well. I'll come to you first. So we were talking about Hillary Clinton a second ago. Now we're talking about Lutnik. You know, there's a cool club going on here in the world, and you're not invited.

And you know who also wasn't invited, it seems, is Donald Trump. Because all these people, all these names keep popping up. You know, every single one of them will be considered this one word. What's that one word? The elite. And the one story that we hear about Trump was that the elite was no fan of Donald Trump. So what did Trump do was go out and build his own thing. put Trump on everywhere, went and bought Mar-a-Lago, had his own events.

So Trump, wasn't he the guy that kicked Epstein out of Mar-a-Lago? Wasn't Trump the guy that was sort of black-balled by all the elite stuff in New York? That's why he came down to Florida, built his own thing. He did an interview with the police about him in West Palm Beach. There you go. So, by the way, all these names keep popping up. Okay, so Howard Lutnik actually did meet Epstein. It wasn't just he was creeped out when he met him before.

What's going on there? Scott Besson was part of the Trump administration. who did he work for for a long time who was that george sorrows so all these things are interweaving and it's all going on like that but viny wants accountability and here's the bad news for viny nothing's going to happen god will you might get you might get people to step down you might get people to be shamed but i know you want heads the role i know you want heads the role and i know you want people to go to jail i don't want any of these people Hillary clinton and what bill clinton Bill Gates. I'm speaking.

I'm speaking. I'm sorry. I'm speaking. I don't see any of them going to jail. And then last thing, Hillary Clinton. I actually believe Hillary Clinton that she had no affiliation with Epstein. Why? Because Hillary Clinton ain't trying to bang little girls. But Bill Clinton, on the other hand, may have some explaining to them. But what about business? I don't think all of this was just fucking up with underage girls.

Do you think anybody in the U.S. is going to get arrested? Anybody. Anybody? I'm sure there'll be a... Name, some heavyweights. No. You don't think any heavyweights will. Give me a names and I'll tell you, my opinion. Gates, no. Bill Clinton, no. I think somebody has to go to jail.

Anyone that has a bee next to their name, a millionaire? Let me ask you. Anyone that's been a former president? I do not see them going to jail. Okay, so let me ask you. If you give me names, I'll answer them. You think what Edward Snowden and Julian Assange did, Do you think the modern day Edward Snowden and Julian Assange

are more advanced and better than they were? Of course. Of course it will. Wait till those guys get to work. Wait. Why aren't they working on it yet? Well, they are. What I'm trying to tell you is this direction it's going.

You remember when everybody on X was talking about Epstein and I would constantly go on YouTube and look at Fox and CNN and I would see how many videos were about Epstein and it wasn't that many? Do you remember that? I don't know if you remember this. So we would be talking about Epstein

and it's like, America doesn't care about Epstein. It's a Twitter story, right? You remember this? And even CNN did a poll one time saying, one percent of people think... Not one percent. Right, it was less than...

Right. But guess what? Do me favor. Go to YouTube and go to Fox News. This is Fox News. Keep of mind. This is not CNN. Go to their channel and go to videos, Rob.

Watch how many videos. Boom. Second one, Epstein. Okay. Go to sixth one, Epstein. Eighth one, Epstein. ninth one Epstein Okay, keep going

Epstein 11th one 12th one Epstein Okay, guess what You know what this means This is the power of media The power of media And the people

Got so sick of it Because of the way Pam Bondi fumbled this She did That the people are finally saying I'm effing sick of it Tell me what the hell happened And folks are sitting there saying

So that pressure You think that pressure is going to go away, you think it's going higher or lower? Well, the question is, do you think Trump is going to keep the pressure on or basically try to diffuse it? He doesn't have a control over that because once the audience gets to a point, so you can, you know, once the audience and the pressure

goes to a point, you eventually have to react. Do you think the pressure is now higher than ever? Of course it is. Than ever with Epstein? With this topic? Yes. Of course it is. Why do you think it's so much higher now? You think Hillary and Bill are going to let this go and allow them to be publicly humiliated? You don't know the crap theory? You don't

don't think they're going to, you don't think they're making calls saying, I swear to God, if you do this, I'm going to tell them about what you did, that one time in D.C., I'm going to tell them about what you did, that one time of Hawaii, I'm going to tell them about that deal that we paid you on the side with cash with a briefcase that was dropped. Go ahead and throw us under the bus. Go ahead, do it? You don't think she's making those calls? Do you not see her cold stone, stone cold personality on how she did the interview, like a freaking mobster? She stayed like a teflon. Don't forget, as much of a As much of a badass as Trump is, if there's a female Trump without the personality,

that is an equal without the personality, without the charm that thinks very highly of herself. It's that lady right to Hillary Clinton. But didn't we argue a few weeks ago? Like, she's not even to come out of any of she comes. There's no point of her coming. And I was like, the fact that she's volunteering to come. Yeah. Means she probably has nothing to hide in this instance.

I don't know about that. Is she the big fish or is Bill Clinton? I don't know what, I don't know. I was still focused on Hillary, by the way, how close is Melinda Gates with Hillary Clinton? How close is Melinda Gates? Rob, can you, can you type in how close is Melinda Gates with Hillary Clinton? And let me tell you, well, I'll go with this one here. You know what I'm going with this or no?

Okay, how close is Melinda Gates with Hillary Clinton? Well, if they're close, do they have a relationship? They work together, Belinda Gates Foundation. Not a close relationship. Okay. They partnered. Look, maybe she is sitting there. How much you think her and Bill are fully aligned on how to handle this deposition?

Hillary and Bill? Yes. They're a lot. They're business partners at this point. 100% because he's coming in. So the way she answered, she answered as if she's not done anything wrong. That's not how the husband's going to do it. How many times does a husband have been to the island?

What are you going to do with that? Oh, we have photos of it. How many times did Epson come to the White House? No, she could play dumb. Of course. But he can't. I agree. So part of it here is, are you doing that to make yourself look good and make your husband look bad?

I don't know. No. I don't think you're married for 50 years and all of a sudden the last second you throw them under the bus. But you don't know that. But you don't know that. I'm saying we're about to find out. But to me, the pressure is so bad right now that behind closed doors, they're saying we have to do something for optics purposes. And what is that going to be?

So question for you? Do you think that picture being shown? Is that going to do anything where? Rob, is the podcast doing fine? Yeah. Okay. Do you think that picture being shown with Luthnik right there? You think that's going to cause the White House to an announcement coming out next week saying,

Howard Lutnik has decided to step down to spend on with his family. I don't think he can stay silent. How do you stay silent? Well, especially given what he said. What's the one thing he said? He lied. I met Epstein one time and he lived right across the hall and I said, I'll never associate with this guy again. Number one, we agreed guys don't talk like that.

Number two. Absolutely. He lied, apparently. Apparently. And we're all fans of Lutnik. We like what he's doing. We're fans. You know, as they said, you got some explaining to do, honey. Howard Lucknet had his Raphael Palmero moment in front of Congress.

Yeah. Remember that? He shook his finger up there. I'd say less than 3% of our audience knows who Rafael Palmeros. He was a great home run. He was a lefty hitter that hit 50 home runs a couple seasons. He was phenomenal. Great.

He was phenomenal. But he was also called to be in front of Congress. And he waved his finger in the air about investigating on steroids. And then in the weeks that followed, he was exposed. They had the receipts from what he purchased. He had Paul DeLuca and other players talking about, wait a minute, what are you talking about? He bought here, he bought there. And now Howard Lutnik makes his moment in front of Congress, and this comes up.

When you say no one's going to be accountable, I'm going to do something real quick, Pat, on Andrew, Prince Andrew. Remember, Andrew, as a Roy. I said, I didn't say not accountable. I said nobody's going to jail. Well, wait a second. Let me show you what's happening over there. First of all, Andrew is being semi-protected by his brother, not covered up by the king, but the king doesn't want full fury, right?

He doesn't want all this stuff. And when the queen passed away, William was unleashed. And William in 2019 wanted his brother, his uncle, banished. And within the last four weeks, he said he was not in a calm state when he saw the latest interview that Andrew did. So here's what they did. You can't prosecute royalty. That's the way it works in Britain. Whoops. Guess what, Pat? He's no longer royalty. They took his title. Then he could stay at the Royal Lodge. And they're like, no, we will not support you with dollars that way. Get out of the Royal Lodge.

Now he's been moved out of the Royal Lodge. Then what did they do? They banished his royal duties. So he doesn't even get to go to Switzerland and give them a bouquet of flowers if someone dies, right? On behalf of the Royal Family, we're sorry. You know, that's kind of what royalty does sometimes. So now you have all this going. The worst, it's going downhill. And now he's actually been served under arrest and question. The noose is tightening around Andrew and William wants him out and prosecuted. And the heat is so great that you can see the British control systems who you normally, boys will be boys and they give free passes to the monarchy. It's not happening. It's getting tightening. And the worst possible thing could happen to Andrew next would be that

that the cancer, Charles succumbs to his cancer, and William becomes king, because then I think the door's open, he will be prosecuted, and I think it's coming for him. And I think you can follow that around the world, that the heat is getting so great. It's getting so intense. I think things are coming. I think it's coming, Pat. May I respond to that? Year ago, I wouldn't have said that.

So you said all that, that you outlined that Andrew's sort of going to be the first dominole of fall and other things may happen. Like in court. Here's how much I care about the British royalty and here's what's going on, Andrew, zero, zero. If it affects America, now we're talking. If Bill Gates or Bill Clinton or any of the slick willies, something happens to them, now you have my attention. If something happens to some weirdo former Prince Andrew, albeit.

But if it affects America, now you have my attention. If it happens to some royalty or former royalty, it doesn't do it for me. Andrew's going to talk, guys. Let me ask. Andrew's going to talk. Let me ask, let me ask, Vinny, if the only person, head to roll, goes to jail, held accountable, and they string them up and put him in a news,

is Prince Andrew, but nobody else? Would you be satisfied? Absolutely not. You know, you know, we talk about this all the time. You know where I am with accountability. In regard to Lutnik, I'm extremely disappointed, Pat. That's the one guy that I kept seeing and going, I like that guy.

He's speaking the truth. He's trying to help America out. And Rob, can you show that photo of the dentist's office? There was a photo. There was like a mask on the dentist's office that we talked about last two weeks ago. that looks, no, no, I'm not being that serious. This was on the wall in the dentist office on Epstein Island.

I don't know that many people that look just like that and have that smile. So guess what? If you were caught lying. Adam, Adam, but here's my thing, Pat. If you get caught lying, Adam, guys, could I speak? Sorry. If you get caught lying in that sense, then how can we trust you with any, and it's not like a little white lie.

You're lying about hanging out with a convicted, disgusting, whatever the hell you want to call him. If the age, people try to be like, well, they were 15. I don't give a damn. He's disgusting. And you're lying. And you're bringing your kids, your nanny, and your people. And it's weird. And then you hear other stuff like the Cantor Fitzgerald, something shorting the tariffs, even though Lutnik was the one going hard on the tariffs.

And then wait a minute, your son and some people are making money because the tariffs are, the Supreme Court voted against them. It's like, now you're losing all this trust. It's very, very disappointing. And then Adam, when the. when the DOJ, whoever's removing these photos, I don't think Trump doesn't, Trump has a thousand other things going on. But when they talk about the deep state, Adam, those are the same people.

And I love that you keep bringing up Pan Bondi guys. Pat, this all comes down to her. You ruin this whole damn thing. You should have been transparent from the beginning. You shouldn't have been sitting in a damn restaurant talking crap about 10,000 hours. Bragging. Bragging. Yeah, bragging.

And now we ask questions. And now you want me to believe that that 30 seconds that you, you guys deleted and took out of that jail sale, you want me to believe what? Oh, there was just a glitch. Or just like all the cameras were off that day. Oh, just like the guards fell asleep. Give me a break.

Now you're losing all credibility. And for people like me that say we don't trust any of you, that's what it is. Period. Can I defend Pam Bondi for a second? No. No, you can't. Nobody's doing that.

And yes, she has fumbled the ball. But to blame Pam Bondi, when you've had decades and decades of the bill bars and the attorney general. They're all deep state. But you want to put it on the person who's been in the job for one year. Yes. She's the CEO of the company for one year where the company's been failing for decades. Let me tell you, but let me tell you. She's the fault guy. She's the fault. No, no, no, no, no. No, let me tell you. Adam, what would happen if you went somewhere and you negotiated on my

behalf and you agreed or set certain things without running it by me with terms without running it by me? What would happen to that relationship? That's what she did. That's what she did. Yeah. She went. We don't know if she didn't. No. get the message from the higher up. She went out there and said there's tens of thousands of disgusting. And then she did that a day or two after James O'Keefe got the video catching her saying what are in those files and they're nasty. You know what that means?

In the mob world, what category does that fall under? A rat. Loose lips. Loose lips. You have loose lips. You can't be on the inside. You go from an insider to be in six. players out. And that's the problem with her. She's, this is not a character issue. We don't like her.

We don't. This is not about likeability. Loose lips is what caused us to be. Is this it, Rob? Yes, sir. Played a clip. So this is her two days after James O'Keefe or the after James O'Keefe. Go ahead, Rob. No, no, the FBI, yeah, the FBI, they're reviewing. There are tens of thousands of videos of Epstein with children or child porn. And there are hundreds of victims. and no one victim will ever get released. It's just the volume, and that's what they're going through right now. The FBI is diligently going through that. I haven't seen that statement, but I'll call him later.

So the part is that. If you notice one thing, I had Christy Nome on the podcast the other day. Going viral right now, by the way. One of the clips about her being spied on. Yes, about her being spied on, right? But we had Christine Ome on the podcast the other day. Great conversation. She did great.

And guess what? A part of who you hire is to represent you in a marketplace. By the way, just so everybody knows, you don't get it right. A guy asked me a question about an investment he had that he lost, and he was impacted about in a big way. He's asked me this question yesterday. I said, what do you do? I said, every year you're going to get some decisions wrong.

Every year. I've been running a business for quite some time. Every year. And all I want to do is to go from 48% better decisions to 52. to 56% you ain't never going to be 95% or 90% it's just not going to happen right and sometimes when you hire people you can't speak on their behalf pan bondy screwed up because of loose lips and the way she handled herself and uh she created noise and she could have prevented that this is not about questioning anything else there there needs to be a fall person on this if you don't have it it's

going to continue it's going and by the way here's how this works the first the first Faster you do it. You know how you, if you're a hairy person and you're doing EKG, and they put all this stuff on your chest and your chest has got hair. Yeah, I'm going to tell you, you know what's the worst thing to do when you're holding them off? No, no, taking it like this. Offload.

You ever see nurses that do this? And you hold the nurses and say, what are you doing? Take the damn thing off. And go, boom, right? And you scream like the 40-year-old virgin clip, right? But you know where they are right now? They got to go wham! Great point.

Pull the whole thing already. They've been slow ripping for here. That's exactly what they're doing. Of course. So why would that change now? But because it's because the temperature is the highest and it's not going to go away. You realize every time like we could be talking about right now victory, state of the union, we could be talking about stuff that's actual real topics.

But you're causing the last 16 videos on Fox to be 11 of them to be what about Epstein. You think everybody wants to talk about that? No. No. But that's how this game works. Real quick, can I respond? I absolutely agree with you. You know who's laughing us right now?

enemies, China, okay, Russia, because here we are arguing over a little 16-year-old pedophilia, whatever Epstein did on this island, when they're trying to have world hegemony and take over the world, and we're arguing about chicks with dicks. It's not just what he did. I hear you. It's not just. There's a lot of noise going on here. And we're trying to find the signals or the noise.

I just don't think it's going to happen. Some of this noise is real. So there's a difference between bad noise that's you don't need to pay. Some of it is real. You know, your kids will scream, oh my God, that's not fair. That's not fair. That's not a noise. Oh, my God, my ankle, look at my ankle. It's bleeding. It says, oh, wow, this is bad. Let's go to the hospital. That's noise. You have to know there's real noise. Okay.

But there's certainly still real noise here. There's a lot more. Dude, the guy that's got one of the biggest jobs in a White House said, I only met him one time, and he doesn't tell the story about being on the island. The picture's released, and it's the one picture that you didn't put on the West. Bingo. You, when you do stuff like this, you know, you make it challenging on people. You don't make it easy. So anyways, I want to go to the next story. Next story. If Trump is going to fire anyone in his cabinet is the question.

No, he won't do to fire. He won't do to fire. He won't do to firing because of one person. There's one person on the inside that knows out of hand of these sensitive situations in a proper way. And her name is Susie Wiles. There's different ways to fire people. Okay. Matter of fact, what I'm going to do right now, Rob,

just go pull up the, go pull up the block story, square story. Okay. And it has nothing to do with this. but there's many different ways on how to fire people. One of them is you're fired. Another one of them is reposition. Another one of them is severance. Another one of them is, hey, you know, give them a smaller job.

I'm stepping down to be with my family. Yeah, I'm stepping. There's so many ways. And Susie is a pro. So whatever way this is going to be done, best trust. What's the difference between this time around, last time we're on? This chief of staff, she's a boss. Everybody who runs a company that's an operator,

you want to have a Susie Wiles. Okay. So far, she's done a great job. Can you do me if everyone go up to that Twitter of Jack Dorsey, Rob? So mass layoffs. Thank you, Rob. Block slashes staff by 40% adding to growing tech cuts. Tom said the moment they cut 40%, 4,000 jobs, the stock apparently went up 25% or so, Tom. Correct me.

That's exactly right. Okay, so check that up. There it is. Hey, we're firing 4,000 people. Bam, it goes to the room. No, literally. So let's go reject Dorsey's Twitter tweets that he put up.

Is that what you call it nowadays? What did it call it? It's a post. It's a post. He used to own Twitter so you can call it whatever you want. We're making blocks smaller today. Here's my no to the company. This thing got 50 million views, folks.

Today we're making one of the hardest decisions in a history of the company. We're reducing an organization by nearly half from over 10,000 people to just under 6,000. That means 4,000 of you, he's talking to his employees, are being asked to leave or entering into consultation. I'll be straight about it, what's happening, why, and what it means for everyone. First of all, if you're one of the people that's being effective, you'll receive your salary for 20 weeks, one week per year of tenure, equity vested through the end of May six months of healthcare, your corporate devices, and $5,000 to put towards whatever you need to help you in this transition.

If you're outside of the U.S., you'll receive smaller support. I want you to know that before anything else, everyone will be notified whether you're being asked to leave entering consultation. or asked to stay. We're not making this decision because we're in trouble. Our business is strong. Gross profits growing. Continues. We're continuing to serve more and more customers and profitability is improving, but something has changed. We're already seeing that the intelligence tools, here we go, folks, we're creating and using paired with smaller and flatter teams, are enabling a new way of working which fundamentally changes what it means to build and run a company, and that's accelerating rapidly. I had two options, cut graphic,

or months or years as this shift plays out or be honest about where we are and act on it now. I chose the latter repeated rounds of cuts and destructive to morale to focus and to trust that customers and shareholders place in our ability to lead. I'd rather take a hard, clear action now and build from a position. We believe in a man and then manage a slow reduction. You see this, how much this has to do with the point I was just making a minute ago. People toward the same outcome. A smaller company also gives us the space to grow our business, the right,

way and on our on our own terms instead of constantly reacting to market pressures. Decision at the scale causes carries risk, but so does standing still. We've done a full review of determinative roles and people were required to reliably grow the business from here. And we've pressure tested those decisions from multiple angles, I accept that we may have gotten some of them wrong and we've built them flexibility to account for that and do the right thing for our customers. We're not going to just disappear people from Slack and email and pretend they're never here.

communication channels will stay open throughout Thursday evening so everyone can say goodbye properly and share whatever you wish. I will be also hosting a live video session to thank everyone at 355 to those of you leave it. I'm grateful for you. I'm sorry to put you through this. You build this company of what it is today. That's a fact that I'll honor forever. This decision is not a reflection of what you contributed. You will be a great contributor to any organization going forward to those staying. I made this decision. I'll own it. What I'm asking for you to build with me is we're going, Okay, and then he goes into the next message. 50 million plus views, Tom.

Well, first of all, this is an example of what I believe is strong leadership when you have to make the tough decision. And he doesn't want people to live in fear. We are making one cut, one time. This is how we're doing it. And take a look. They're giving them 20 weeks plus six months of health care. He is giving transition with a capital T to all of these people.

He's giving them time to find other jobs. I thought this was really well done. Now, for everybody else saying, well, why would the market be happy about layoffs? I'm going to dive in a little bit to that. Real quick, quick history. Square was born in 2009 in St. Louis. Jack Dorsey started it. And they became Block in 2021 long after their IPO.

IPO was 2015 or something. And along the way, they built Cash App in 2013. So he had Square and Cash App. He's building this FinTech company. keeps adding to it. They changed the name to Block, Pat, because they were saying, hey, we're going to be more about what's on blockchain, and we're going to also allow you to do crypto inside Cash App. So that's where Block came from as a modern brand for it. And by the way, 2020 to 2021, Cash App won the deal, and they were a distributor of the

payments from the federal government during the whole COVID. So those payments that came from the government were executed through cash app. Now, something then happened. They got into the BNPL business and they bought after pay in 2022. At the time they bought it, you had a lot of people, even analysts on Wall Street saying, hey, when you consolidate these, do you need, is all these admin jobs? Do you need them both? Do you need all this? And Pat, they never made a, whenever you acquire something, you don't need two HRs, you don't need two marketing. There's a lot of things you don't need two of and unfortunately you have to thin up the team well they didn't and he got up over 10,000 jobs so message number one there were more people at block than probably were necessary to run the

business and he was going to have to make some sort of an adjustment or a layoff to right size the workforce because of their the acquisitions that they made of bmPL but second along the way they started discovering benefits of AI the stock market it jumped up because they've been waiting for him to reduce internal costs. But the headlines jump up because they're like, oh, no, AI is going to take everybody's job and we're all gone. Well, some of that is true, but it's not going to destroy everything in life. So there were two things that happened here, but I think that Jack Dorsey handled it like a pro. I think there's a little more shade thrown on, you know, that AI caused it. And there needs to be a little bit more honesty about the fact that

that there was consolidations, there was growth, and they bought after pay, this BNPL, and it built a very large horde at headquarters that they had never really successfully trimmed or right size. So Tom, that tweet he just sent out, how long of noise is he going to have until the noise goes away? I happen to think that the market is digested. Not the market, in the company.

This? Well, there's going to be an adjustment of about a couple weeks or 30 days. But there will not be, if this is true, and they are not going to do, as he said, the death of a thousand cuts, oh, we're doing this many, then we're doing this many, then we're doing this many, then we're doing this. You see companies, you and I have seen it when companies are losing altitude, and they lay off, then they lay off, then they lay off. How could the staff not live in fear? So how long do you think this is going to take? There's going to be a 30-day reaction inside.

And what happens after 30 days? If this is true, people will put their head down and work and drive for the future. Yeah, and they'll move on. Correct. Okay, and guess what? The White House needs to look at this playbook. Bingo. That's what the White House needs to do.

The White House needs to look at this. What a take. Amen to that. That's the point. That's where I'm going with. Amen. Go take that thing off and get the pain in half a second instead of dragging it out the way you're doing. With an honest, transparent statement.

The president needs to send one of those. Long novel type tweets that only a few people do him and Bill Ackman are famous for it. He needs to sell one of those long tweets for market to be like, oh my God, and criticize the hell out of the president. Talk trash. Come out and say impeachment. Come out and say all this stuff. And then guess what? Two weeks later, war, something, issue happens, you move on.

But you have to address this because this is kids. And when it comes down to kids, people, it's like you can say anything else. person's just looking at you saying, kids, kids, kids, children, kids, children, children, kids, kids, they hear nothing else you're saying. So that's the thing with this. And by the way, kudos to Jack for handling it this way. Let's go to the next story. Next door I want to get to is Netflix and Paramount. So, Rob, what page is the Netflix and Paramount story? Netflix and Paramount, which is massive. We could do addendum to Netflix stock right here. Okay, so let's do that. So Netflix.

addendum to ditches, the deal for Warner Brothers discovery after Paramount offer is deemed superior. So Paramount comes up and they go to $31 per share. And then that causes Paramount agreeing to pay the $2.8 billion breakup fee that Warner Brothers would owe Netflix if the deal didn't go through. So what Paramount is says, don't worry about it. We'll pay that. It's like you have an apartment that you've been living. And if you want to cancel and leave to go to a different job, you have to pay for the three months.

And the company says, we'll pay for the three months of rent for you to move over here sooner. Exactly that break up. That's the way to look at it, right? So then they come in and Paramount goes, and I keep them out a couple things that happen. And Tom, I'm going to come to you first, Adam, to you afterwards,

is while this is going on, Rob, you may have a video on this. I think you may have a video on this. There was a few events that took place. Ted Sarandos was supposed to be at the White House. I think he did go to the White House. I don't know if he met with the president. Rumors are saying he did not. He just met with a few staffers.

and remember that Suzanne Rice made a couple comments. Then the president says you got to fire her on Netflix and they did it. So some are saying it's a political decision of what's going to be happened. The employees who are working at CNN right now are not frightened because they're thinking Larry Ellison and David Ellison are going to come in and like a Barry White's type of a thing. And there's going to be a lot of shakeup and some of the employees are going to get fired. And they're saying we are effed. There's literally some emails and texts that are being shown that employees are saying we are effed at CNN.

But I'll pause right there. Rob, play this clip and the time I'm coming to you next. Go ahead. Again, just the past couple of minutes, Netflix is declining to raise its offer to buy Warner Brothers Discovery Studios and streaming business. The move effectively puts Paramount in a position to take over the storied Hollywood giant. Today, Warner Brothers Board announced that Skydance owned Paramount's offer

is superior to the agreement it had previously struck with Netflix. Now, Netflix says the price that would be required to buy Warner makes the deal no longer financially attractive. There you go. Tom, thoughts. So, well, hats off to, I've been critical of David Zazlov for the last year. I thought they started this the wrong way. He was going to the Allen Company conference and there were leaks that come out that supposedly he had whispered to people, you know, do you want to take CNN?

We're taking care of it. Remember all this, Pat? We're taking care of all the big salaries. And Caitlin is on a rookie deal. So, you know, this is a different CNN? We're going to get the cost right. Come on. And he found no takers.

No takers for an aging, shrinking cable news service coming purely from the left that Ted Turner was disgusted at how it evolved. Then David gets this done. And so hats off to Zaz. He gets 31 a share for the shareholders. Part of the rule, you know, for being a great CEO, is deliver value for the shareholders and lead the company with clarity and authenticity. And it was a bumpy ride, but you got it done.

What's interesting to me about this, Pat, really interesting to me, is how the last hours unfolded. The Ellisons did come to 31 a share. Remember, the Ellisons are coming to buy the whole thing. They want the cable nets and they want the library, whereas Netflix only wanted the library. And there were people in Hollywood, producers, big-time movie creators that really were favoring the Ellisons a little bit. Why? Because the Elevents,

Ellisons are favoring theatrical releases and bigger budgets. That's what people in Hollywood want because those bigger budgets give them their jobs. Whereas Netflix, they said, oh, they're just going to stream this to death. They're going to carve it up. They're going to go with AI. And so there is a lot of behind the scenes. But in the last hours, Ted Sarandos, you're correct, Pat, well, your summary, I've read multiple locations this morning. He was going to go meet with Pam Bondi and Susie Wiles. And Susie Wiles was going to be the gatekeeper. And Pam Bondi was going to be the gatekeeper for the Federal Trade Commission. And he wanted to go up there and talk to them about what he would face at Federal Trade Commission. And obviously he didn't want Trump whispering.

But Susan Rice, who was in the Obama administration had shot her mouth off. Rob, if we can find that, her exact quote was, people need to be careful because revenge is best served cold. Yeah, it's a threat. So you have got this, this. this threat that she puts out there. And she's on the board of Netflix. So do you not think Reed Hastings or Ted Sarandos would have picked up the phone and called her? I know you would have Pat and say, what are you saying?

You have your independence. You have your old job. You have your own identity. But you can't speak like that when we're in the middle of something. What the hell are you doing? And then Trump comes out and says, you know, you should fire that lady. That lady talked. What does she say here?

Is this, sir? Yes. But let me say this. Somebody who, I won't name, but a very prominent public figure who has served at nearly the very highest levels, once told me the following. They said, revenge is best served cold. And the older I get, the more I see the wisdom of that. you don't roll over. You don't allow yourself to be bullied or manipulated.

Sometimes, you know, you have to meet hardball with hardball. Sometimes they're more subtle ways to accomplish the same. But it's important to let bullies know that you won't be bullied. And if need be, to make them pay a price for trying to bully you or smear you or whatever. You can pause it right there. the way so so so here's two things you got to be thinking about one when did when did she get the board seat when did she get the board seat board seat Netflix when did she get the board seat netflix when there's two problems here just ask us chat chabit when it's you know let's see if it

answers it here if not go to chat jbt yeah so so she became she got the board seven years ago okay so check this out that's under trump that's under trump that's under trump But that's first term Trump. Then he got second term, which is Biden. Okay? And Trump called the other unstate of the union. My second term. Everybody laughed.

But then he got second term. And then she served on the board until 2020. When she left to join Biden administration and was reappointed to Netflix, September 8, 2023. So Netflix probably did that. Tom, do you think Netflix did that thinking? Kamala was going to win. When did Biden step down? We were in Hampton, so July? Yes. Yeah, the handwritten note from the White House.

It's either a move of there is no way in the world Trump's going to win. So let's bring and put her on the board. Or listen, business as usual. I mean, if we put her on in 2018, we're going to do it again. or number two, the problem is, what the hell are you doing making comments like that while you're sitting on a board of a half a trillion-a-nottal company that's about to get a big deal that is good assets? I mean, there's a lot of things to it. I saw one expert also say, which I really liked his thing,

knew his name, I've never heard him before, but he was on, I want to give this guy credit because it was so great what he said. You know what he was asked and he said, what do you think about the whole thing? You think it's because of, and he was talking to the guy that wrote the 1929 book. What is his name, Tom? You know his name.

Oh, and you're a Sorkin. Yes, he says, he's speaking to him, Rob. And he says, do you think this is because of Suzanne Rice? And he says, no, I don't think. He says, really, you don't think? No, he says, I don't think. So what do you think this is? He says, honestly, here's what I think it is.

He says, I think it's about Netflix has always built. their business, they're builders. They don't acquire companies. They're builders. So you know what the builder mentality is? Look, we'd like to buy you. We have some money. But whether we do or not, we're builders anyways. We're going to keep building. So the mindset of a builder sometimes is different than those that are aggregators. Aggregators want to buy EBITDA. They want to buy catalog. And you're kind of like are trying to get all that stuff in. So listen, that also goes credit to the Netflix folks. If it's just a business decision and it has nothing to, do with politics, which I do think 20, 30% of this was politics. But if it's just a business decision,

go ahead. FYI, I prefer, I prefer Paramount picking up WBD than it going to Netflix. I personally prefer that. Do you want to know why? Because it intensifies competition between three heavyweights now or four heavy weights. You got the Paramount CBS, Warner Brothers team, the Ellison, those guys, guys, you got the Disney folks. I got to get their act together, but never, by the way, never counts the Disney out. Disney is three good moves away from being a trillion-dollar company. Literally, they're not that far off. And then you have Netflix. This is good competition. You got some outsiders. You got YouTube. YouTube may come and spank all of them, to be honest with you. We don't know what's going to be happening, but, you know, I kind of like that this ended up being

there. Adam, your thoughts. Well, to me, get ready to be more controlled. Because it seems like you're going to have more options now, all these companies, but they're all being consolidated. So what happens when consolidation happens, they're going to control what you watch. And in turn, they're going to control what you think. So all these things, you just said there's going to be three or four major companies. They're going to be controlling everything. It's kind of reminiscent of what happened with Amazon and Walmart. I mean, all the little mom and pop shops are gone.

I mean, if you're going to go shopping, where are you going? You're going to Amazon? You're going to Walmart. Maybe Target, you know, if they chill out on the LGBT trans stuff. So it might be more convenient. You know, everyone has, I've all these apps on my phone. I've subscribed to all these things. Now you're going to subscribe to three different things.

So there's fewer apps, but when there's fewer choices, you know what's going to cost more? What you have to pay every single month. So you might, instead of paying $999, $19, $19. You might not paying $29.99, $39, $39, $59, $5,99, but only three times. So you brought up the other point, YouTube. To me, the biggest benefactor of all this is, going to be guys like us. It's going to be guys like the Daily Wire. It's going to be guys like independent media. It's going to be like Turning Point. It's going to be even things on the left.

Because it's like, do you want to be controlled by the big tech oligarchies or monopolies or do you want to trust independent voices out there? Because what this basically means is this. All the news, the media, the sports, the comedy, the entertainment, the cartoons, they're all going to be owned by three different companies. And what happens is I think innovation is going to basically be cut down, see a lot more sequels. Okay, we're going to see Transformers 94 or Avengers 417 because there's going to, in my opinion, lose a little creativity, the bigger you get. You know what this is also reminiscent of the insurance industry where we come from?

When I entered the insurance industry almost 20 years ago, oh my God, I'm dating myself. There were so many independent IMOs, BGAs. I couldn't keep track. How many major IMO BJs are there now? Three, four. So that's good for the customers. essentially, there's less, there's less competition, but at the end of the day, the crisis is going to go up.

A Merrill Life bought Crump. I had no idea of Merrill Life bought Crump. That's huge. Yeah, Merrill Life bought Crump. You remember when BB was a BBNT or something like that? I don't know who was. Yeah, that one, that one, but a Merrill Life bought Crump. How massive was Crump 10 years ago?

Massive, the biggest. Yeah. I mean, in throwing the distribution. Yeah. So this is all distribution. It is. It is. It is.

Again, for me, I like that they're going. I like that there's going. I like that there's going to be some disruption at CNN. I like that there's going to be some disruption to the media space. Even yesterday while we're having dinner with the folks, one of the guys, I think it was Brad that said, this could be the reason why they're buying them is because they want to be able to do the future Harry Potter AI movies.

They can do 10, 15 AI movies. And of course, you pay the actors a little bit of money, not the same kind of money. But they believe the future of making AI movies. You guys saw the clip, Rob. Do you have the clip of Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt? I don't know if you guys have seen this or not. Have you seen this thing? Watch this Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt. It's 100% AI.

Look what direction they're going with AI making movies, the fight scene. Watch this. Go ahead. Go ahead. The voice isn't there yet, but watch. You killed Jeffrey Epstein, you animal. He was a good man. He knew too much about our Russia operations. He had to die, and now you die too. That's crazy, right? What was the last movie these two guys were?

I remember they were like a vampire movie in the 90s. Oh, that was a little. Interview with a vampire. That was a legit interview with a vampire. So the concern is you buy it. Now you control it. Now you have AI. Now you can pump out movies using AI at one tenth of a pace.

So if it takes you three years to make a movie, now we can take three months to make a movie. And we can do multiple, you know, Harry Potter movies coming out. We can make multiple. And by the way, pull up the catalog of what, things Paramount will own if they have this, Rob. That one picture that the great Humberto sent are, you know what I'm talking about, right? Watch this. Watch this. Zoom in a little bit, Rob.

Skydance, TikTok. If they get it, TikTok, US, Fandango, Rotten Tomatoes, Oracle, HBO, CNN, CBS, Showtime, TBS, Comedy Central, TNT, Paramount, TLC, TV, Nickelodeon. And then you got Animal Planet, CBS Sports, Adult Swim. What is that? Adult Swim. Cartoons. Cartoon Network. HBO Max. I was about to say adults.

Cinemax. Don't you forget about my BET. BET. BET isn't the same BET. Used to be VH1, MTV, MTV is lost. Lost. We lost. And then some other major franchises they picked up.

Harry Potter, Mad Max, Conjuring, Matrix, IT, Lord of the Rings, Remilus. Mission Impossible. Nightmare on Elm Street. Game of Thrones. True detective, soprano wire, Mortal Kombat, Transformers, Justice League. Shazam, Harley Quinn, Joker, Superman, Batman. Who's the other one?

Wonder Woman. What's the one on the left? Is that Daredevil or the right about Batman? Who is that about Batman? I don't know who that is. Dexter. Flash. Flash. Flash. Yellowstone Star Trek. I know that. Turtles, it's your age. So Garfield, Avatar, G.I. Joe, Top Gun. I mean, listen. So all these independent friends. It's now theirs. Now there. On one app. Yes. This is all talking about. Everything's consolidated.

Yes. Yes. Yes, exactly. Is good for the consumer? It doesn't matter sometimes when these guys buy up all this stuff. If you're, the challenges, if you buy up and you don't create, it doesn't matter. You have to stay in creation mode. If they stay in creation mode, then good to go. By the way, how old is David Ellson? 41, 42.

I don't know how old he is, but he's in the early 40s, late 30s. You know, he's a 43. There you go, 43. Man. So. Vinny, what are we doing with our life, bro? He's got a- buying everything.

He's got a- About to be 40 this year. and I kind of keep up with him. Yeah, yeah, for sure. Okay, all right. Let's go to the next story. Next door I want to get into is, uh, pa, pa, pap, pap,

which one is that one? That is, um, okay. Do you guys want to go to a, uh, Vinny, is there a story you want to get to? Because I've got three stories I want to go to. Do you have one you want me to go to? Um, I mean, if we want to call out, uh, Gavin Newsom and all the stuff that's happening in California.

Which one? The guy. Okay, yeah, go ahead. Go ahead. Go cover that. Okay. Well, well, on top of. I have a couple.

What's the story? Well, first of them, just in general, just in general, I just want to know, like, public, just as a society, when are we going to stop pretending, okay, that the trans movement, whatever you want to talk it, is a problem. And if we keep letting people with mental disorders, keep getting away with everything that they're getting away with, because we all want to be like, oh, no, no, no, the welcoming and loving, it's insane. We didn't even touch on it the week that the mass shooting happened in Canada.

with the trans man, whatever you want to call him. But since 2018, guys, shootings, mass shootings in the hands of transgender. 2018, Aberdeen, four dead. 2019, Highlands Ranch, Colorado, one dead, four injured. 2022, Colorado Springs, five dead. 2002-23, Nashville, Tennessee, six dead. Two, 2024. Perry, Iowa, one dead, five injured.

2025, Minneapolis. Minnesota, two dead. 29 injured. 2006, Tumblr Ridge, British Columbia, which I'm talking about eight dead, 25 injured. and then 2026, Pawtucket, Rhode Island, two killed, three injured. I'm sick and tired of this. It's not even a minority. It's just these couple group of people that we keep acting, not us, but the left, that

everything is okay. In 2018, I want you guys, I want to talk about this story. His name is David Funson. If you're home, look them up. Rob's going to show you. Look, just look at this photo and tell me if you guys are surprised. Please, whoever's out there, okay? First openly trans.

Jesus. No, it's a pastor apparently. First openly U.S. trans lawmaker admits to child sex charges involving kids young as three. I didn't see that one. Can you let me finish the damn story?

All right? You're speaking. This guy's name is Stacy Marie Law in 41 years old. Biological male identifies as a female. Pled guilty to charges with sexual exploitation of children last week. And you know who was sending up at?

Who was sending this dude photos of three-year-olds naked or whatever, his partner who was at a daycare, Adam, sending him those photos and they, he, she, whatever the hell, got in trouble to. And it's, it's disgusting. And it's bothering me.

And it's just, it's out of control. Rob, you want to, is this the, is this the one with, with, Gavin? This is a Fox News clip. Okay, so, so I'm going to stop. So that's this one of Gavin Newsome, but I don't know. No, that's not it. No, that's not it.

So my point I'm getting, the trans situation, about this is California. Wait, where, is that, Robbie. Sacramento. Sacramento, this is a lawmaker. This is someone that was praised as a trailblazer as this woman and this.

That's that person. Okay, and then, Pat, there's another one. Let's just keep staying on California. There's a Democrat running for Fresno, California City Council, Renee Campos. He's a registered sex offender with a 2018 convention of possession of child abuse material who doesn't plan on stepping down.

And listen to his excuse. Go ahead. I believe Fresno deserves leaders that are honest from the very beginning not the end. So going into this, I'm putting my life out there. Up front about his status as a registered sex offender. Renee Compos is not running from his past as he runs for office. I've been giving the chance to rehabilitate through the courts and back into the system.

Charged with being in possession of child sex abuse material back in 2018. The Fresno native says he pled no contest to a misdemeanor charge. Now launching his campaign to represent District 7. what he's saying? I'll stop it right there. Rob, you know what he says, Pat? He goes, he goes, yep, who's better to know the system than me because I went through it? I'll be an asset. And the main one, the main story.

In 2018, your boy, Gavin Newsom, our favorite guy, signed the bill. Senate bill 1319. It's a law as part of California's criminal justice reform, push. Guys, it's called the elderly parole program. So if you were arrested, if you were 18, 19, or whatever, and you've served 20 years, it allows

inmates who are 50 years old, that have served 20 years to be considered for parole. So David Funston was 17 when he committed these crimes. And guys, they're horrific crimes. Kidnapping, child molestation, multiple victims, five-year-old girl who has suffered severe physical trauma that I don't even want to mention because it'll gross you guys out. He was sentenced to three life terms in prison.

Three life terms. And guess what? Under California's elderly plural, he's becoming eligible for a hearing to get out. But as this was happening, thank God, they stopped them because they put up another charge. But Rob, can you play that clip of the news? There you go. It's only a minute. A convicted child predator that a judge once called the monster parents fear the most has now been

cleared for release under California's elderly parole program. He's 64 years old. His horrific crimes include 16 counts of kidnapping and child molest. Are you serious? Yes. He was sentenced to three straight terms of 24 years. years to life plus 20 years on top of that. The state's corrections and rehab bureau detailing the process of his parole approval

telling Fox News Digital this, that on January 12th, 2026, Governor Gavin Newsom referred the case back to the board of parole hearings for further review. Oh, good job. Meaning he didn't agree with this conclusion. Now, at that then February board meeting, the panel reaffirmed the decision, recommending that this monster receive parole. it's important to note that the governor cannot overturn there in that state parole board hearings conclusion when it's a non-homicide case. Great.

And that is why the governor cannot at this point overturn. So you can stop it, Rob. So Pat, everything we hear about California, the politics, the gas, the taxes, the lying from this guy and he's the frontrunner. This is the type of thing that happened. Rob, we don't need to play because this guy goes into detail. And I don't want to get into detail what he did with these children. but what is it about this disgusting demonic forces that even the people that are in charge are letting him who would sign a bill saying if you did 20 years that guy went to jail did he did 20 years but what i want to know

is how did he make it out of jail the elderly parole meaning if other inmates know you did that 16 times yeah they protected how did others who maybe killed people to be in jail how did they not very impressive that's a very good question maybe His security was high level. Child abusers don't do well in jail. No, they don't. This shows you the unintended consequences of a horribly run state. So they passed the elder care.

And what was this? The elder care. The elderly parole. What it was meant to do, Pat, was like an 80-year-old guy who now is frail and is in prison and has served almost his entire life. They look at it, Pat. What have they got? They got budget issues in California.

So they look at these elderly and they say, you know what? Maybe he just should be out of jail. jail. But then you know where he goes, Pat? He would go being Social Security or Medicaid or Medicare, and then he would be in like a retirement care facility. But he's not working. He's not out there. They're old. They're frail. They're just moving them from one government program to another. You follow that? And they're trying to save the money. Instead, this case comes up. So the law of unintended consequences, somebody says, some bleeding heart liberal says, hey, you know, this guy's eligible. He's eligible on this, so we need to go to the parole board for it to be reviewed. And all of a sudden, the

parole board's in handcuffs. And they're like, yeah, we got to review this. But the parole board can say no. They can say he, look, he was on there for trip. Do you notice it was triple life plus 20? Yes. Triple life plus 20. And I believe in California, life is 25 with good behavior. So triple life and 20 should be 25, 25, 25, 25 plus 295 years. So in other words, the original sentencing, the judge was saying, okay, we're going to do triple life plus 20, which means that's a hundred year sentence. Okay, go away. Someday, some distant relative would be notified that you passed away in prison. Or sooner than that, if other inmates who react violently often to child molesters, you know, you know, invoke a form of capital punishment.

So it's disgusting that this is the unintended consequences of a poorly run state, Pat. Some liberal puts us out on the book. And this is where you go. But let me tell you, Gavin Newsom was a, well, I believe did not take the bold. Yeah, no, I get it. Are you ready for this too? Thank God. Thank God.

He's such a scumbag that the prosecutor time, we talked about this before this. Because he got the three lives, Pat, there's other cases that they were like, forget it. He's never going to get out of jail. But because of this elderly parole program, as he's about to get paroled, new charges from a 1996 cold case from Roseville, California, they're going to keep him in because of the other disgusting crimes that he did. So it's going to be harder from the leave. But if he didn't have other charges, the odds of him getting out of jail and being in the streets was going to be high.

So good job, California and Gavin Newsom. Adam. To me, there's a bigger story here. and this is what it is. It's the difference between being nice and being kind. So one time this girl says, you know, this is my friend Adam. He's so nice. I go, no, I'm actually not that nice.

I actually can be an A-hole sometimes. But I am kind. She goes, well, what's the difference? I said, let me explain. Nice will do things to protect your feelings and will please you and avoid conflict. And it's basically fake. It's surface-level stuff, you know?

women tend to do that, hey, you know, how do I look? Oh, you look great, honey? And then they'll whisper. She doesn't look good. Kind does not protect people's feelings. It protects people. So it genuinely cares. And you have to be okay being disliked to solve for the truth. Men tend to be more like this. I'll give you an example. I was dating a girl. It's like, you know, two years ago. And she came out of the bathroom and right behind her, a full. on dude with a beard in a dress comes out of the bathroom. I go, sweetie, like, she goes, no, don't, don't say anything. I don't want to, I don't want to offend her. I go, offend her? It's a dude and a beard and a dress. No, I don't want any conflict.

Yeah, I'm not cool. I said, I'm not, I'm going to say something. He goes, no, I don't want to be that person. So finally, she convinces me out to say something. But what do I do? I almost lecture her. I go, how are you comfortable with this? How you, she ain't even trying. She has a beard. Looks like Rob's beard came out of the bathroom. And because she has long hair and a dress, you're just going to go for this?

I said, what is wrong with you? I said, you need to do better. I'm going to say something. But the fact that you as the woman in the bathroom won't say anything is because you want to be nice. I just want to be nice. I go, I don't care about being nice. The right thing to do is say, dude,

why are you in the bathroom with a beard with this girl? This is what it came down. It seems to me really bothered in this bathroom situation. Doesn't it not bother you if your daughter or your daughter was in a bathroom and a dude in a beard shows up? That's bailing me out of jail. If I saw somebody coming out of the bathroom, he's bailing me out of him. There's a difference to being nice and appeasing. American needs more organ donors.

It's our job as men to protect our women. That is our duty. It's our responsibility. So, you know, when I see, when I see, when I. I hear stuff like that, it really bothers me. But that's the, you know, dumb stuff that California does a beautiful state that ran by a terrible politician who now Congress House. You know how you guys are like, imagine if Trump wants to pull tariffs, put tariffs through them. What do you say?

Well, put it through Congress. Go ahead. Now go be the governor of California. I want to put it through Congress. You got 48 to 4 now after gerrymandering. Women put it through Congress. Nothing's going to pass through Congress. So California's got a bigger problem, and he's attacking JD.

He knows what's going on. And he kind of doubled down. It's almost as if he attacked both of them here, Rob, right? I think he attacked JD and he attacked Ruby. Go ahead, Rob. Talk about a guy who put a mask on and his face grew into it. Sure. I mean, J.D. Vance and Marco Ruby were two of the most effective critics,

just like that guy, what's his name, Graham, Lindsay, of Donald Trump. What frauds? What phonies? But JD is a unique fraud and phony, and he's a little more dangerous. And the folks around him, these are not folks that believe. I mean, listen to some of the biggest funders, the way they talk. There's a nihilism to the way they talk about the world. I know these guys.

I literally know them. You can pause it right there. Dude, listen, you know what the reality is? You're doing such a horrible job that even CNN puts you as the lead dog at 19%. And number two is Kamala at 17%. Number three is Put Buttigieg for whatever reason he can't get the blackmail vote at 12%. 13%. And then number four is AOC.

Just go to the poll route to show the poll instead of just watching the video. Look at that. 1918, 13, 12. How bad do you have to be Newsome? That you don't have a flat out, you know, if there's ever been a time, if there's ever been a time that. that a center-left Democrat, Hollywood, actor, former CEO of a massive bank that transacts,

you know, tens of trillions of dollars per month, if there's ever been a time for somebody on the left that the center left is to run for president as a Democratic on the ticket, guess what? It is wide open. What Democrats are saying, they don't like Newsom, they don't like Harris, some people don't like Pete, and then AOC.

I talked to, I don't know who I was talking, Wall Street Journal guy calls me interviewing for whatever interview story he's doing it on. And I said to him, I said, you know, as crazy as things are right now, you know what is possible of happening? A progressive coming and winning. Oh, come on. Oh, no, no, no. Hey, listen, if this continues and you give three stories, say the affordability thing continues. Say, you know, what do you call it, square block that just fired 4,000 people and they're probably going to fire two more thousand people

and it made 25%. And other companies follow elite and they keep firing people like that. Do you know how many good stories are going to have for a progressive? You know how great of it? By the way, 2027, 2028 will be a phenomenal chance

for a progressive to win. It's never too early to plan your summer story in Europe with WestJet, from rolling countryside to cobblestone streets. begin your next chapter. Book your seat at Westjet.com or call your travel agent. WestJet, where your story takes off.

I agree. I agree. Phenomenal chance. I wouldn't be surprised if an outsider progressive comes in just like nobody thought Mamdani was going to win in what he called a New York City and he did. An AOC type of figure could come out and one.

By the way, do you have that clip rob that I saved of Bernie Sanders on what this one guy told him? By the way, this, everybody, needs to keep repeating this one line that Senator Mark Wayne Mullen said it. And by the way, Mark Wayne Mullen also ran up to Al Green to try to grab that, you know, the sign that he had, black people are not apes or whatever the sign was that he was holding up. Watch what he says to Bernie Sanders. And Bernie has nothing to say.

Please play this beautiful clip. Attack me. I'm going to respond. I'm pointing out facts. You can say what you want. I'm just pointing out facts. Anyways, I ran it too long. Let's talk about some...

Yes, you did. I'm sorry, I didn't ask your opinion on that. And if I cared about your opinion, I would ask you, but I don't care about your opinion. You're part of the system. You're part of the problem. You've been sitting here longer than I've even been alive. This is your problem. You should have fixed this a long time ago.

If you're so right, Mr. Sanders, you seem like a nice guy. 49 years or so you've been. And how come you haven't fixed these problems? How come you haven't... By the way, can you make a list of Rob? Who are the longest sitting senators are? and Congress folks that we have right now. Longest sitting, who? Who are the longest sitting? The longest sitting both side senators and congressmen today. You're ready? Here's what they're in.

Truck Grassley. How many years? 45 years. McConnell 40 years. Patty Murray since 93. Ron, Wyden, 96. Dick Durbin, 97. Hal Rogers, 44. Chris Smith, Marcy. How long has Bernie been in there, by the way? How long has Bernie been in there? I'm just scared under them. Bernie's 38, 36, 35, what's the number? He's got to be up there. How long has Bernie been in there? All 35 years.

You guys have the least amount of credibility to tell anybody what to do. You've been working at a company for 35 years and you don't solve a problem. You know if you don't do it within the first 90 days? You're fired. Here, you have a job for 35 years. But I'm telling you, don't be surprised

if an outsider progressive comes out. But if there's any way, If there's any of these Hollywood guys that are aspirationals that want to put their name in there and compete, start going out there and hire the right five, six, seven people around you, get the right consulting from to get your guy prepped, do the background checks, go through the whole process, check the Epstein files to make sure they're not on there. Check every one of these files to see where they're at. There's a wide open opportunity in 2008 for the Democratic ticket because Newsom simply sucks that much that he can't get more than 19%. no one even on his own side trusts him.

No one even on his own side trusts him, even though he's the lead guy. And Pritzker isn't even on that list. Now, no, Tom, you thought Pritzker was going to be the guy. He's not even on that list. Anyways. Of Zempec didn't help him at all. I think he's still there.

At this point, just real quick on history will go on. I will not distract here, Pat. At this time in history, ladies and gentlemen, there is usually a 25 to 30 percent clear leader. Al Gore was that leader. Joe Biden was that leader. Hillary Clinton was that leader. where everybody says, well, midterms are here, but that's our number one.

And it's very clear. And right now it's not. He goes to Geneva. He goes overseas. He goes to the world economic. No one cares. And he can't get above 19%. It's not helping them.

Although I like a combination of AOC and Kamala Harris, right? Oh, I love that. The drunk and the bartender. It's perfect. Brought to you by Stola Chania. Brought to you by what? Stolotichinaia vodka. Oh, Stolotichinaia.

All right. Let's go to the next story. Thanks, Tom. Tom's comedy. I mean, he's performing tonight, guys. If you guys want to go to a local comedy club, Tom's going to be performing for you. Requirement for those of you guys to come to his show,

you have to have an MBA to understand his jokes because it's only for educated people. Let me help you out here, Tom. Yeah, it's only for the educated people. All right, let's go to next one. At least that helps. Next story I want to go to. Next story I want to go to.

I got two stories I'm going to done. I'm going to wrap up. Next door I'm going to go to is, think having children will make you happier. Think again. Telegraph is telling you. Telegraph. You got to think twice about it, you people who want to have more children.

So let's listen to what telegraph has to say. And you know whose story this is? I picked this, but Adam wants to talk about it. Adam, I'm coming to you first. Here we go. Getting married and having children has been longer been considered the cornerstone of a good life or simply the done thing. Yet around the world, women are choosing to have fewer children

and there is no consensus on why. in England and Wales fertility rates have sunk into the lowest level on record at 1.41 children per women, well below the replacement rate of 2.1. This clearly brings challenges for society. The most obvious is for public finances if fewer tax, future taxpayers are born, who will pay the public services? There was a study that parents tend to fare a little bit worse on life satisfaction than those without children. What a crock of shit. Rock, can you pull up this person here? Anscar, Houdet. Can you go find German sociologists? Huge. Yeah, okay. Go, go to his profile. That was tough. How many, I want to know how many kids he's got.

How many kids does he have? Can you find that if he's got any kids? Let's find that if the, oh, my, you know who he looks like? Wow, that's a bad thing. He looks a bubble head. He looks terrible. Yeah, it's not good. Wow, you know, he looks like a, I don't want to say.

He looks terrible in that picture. Dude, you got to change your, listen, respectfully. That head is too big for those shoulders. that looks like that was AI. I'm not trying to be disrespectful. Like whoever took the picture, cut it from like, you know, like, crop it. Can we, can we say Japanese AI? Do me a form character?

No, no, we can't show a picture like that. Let me fix this picture real quick. This is embarrassing. We have to help this guy out. I was about to take shots at this guy. Now I want to help him out. Look, publicly, what's his name? Anskar what?

Ansgar, who day? Huid. Hudi. Like, I'm going to, and what does he say? Does he have any kids or no? It says, can't find any credible. public biographical information confirming whether or not he has children. Can't find anything, right?

Yeah. Okay. So that's the problem with people like you. And you're allegedly a doctor. But let me read this to you. Okay. He has studied the experience of 43,000 people across 30 European countries,

including UK, to understand how parenthood affects happiness. When asked how satisfied people feel with their lives, parents on average tend to feel slightly worse than their child free peers. However, much also depends on your circumstances. The more challenging the world of circumstances, the worst having a child is for you, your well-being, being a single parent, having a lower social economic class,

I'm lower, you get you in the gentleman, something. Okay, all right, buddy. Good for you. Adam, thoughts. I'm going to do some editing here on this picture and fix it. So this may take a second path, so just bear with me. Oh, my God. the biggest lie that people of society have been told is the lie of modern feminism.

And I'll double down on that. Because, you know, this guy said this is based on a survey. Let me tell you what I'm basing this is on. My life feelings, what I've seen. I see what's going on here. So there's a big difference between men and women. Look, I've been very, yeah, there it is, Benny. You can't get pregnant.

I don't care what they say. Stop chest feeding. It's not going to happen. But look, I've partied enough. for 10 lifetimes. I've been very open about that. I've been all the parties. I've been all the yachts.

I've been all the mansions. I've been all the trips. I've done it all. You've been with millionaires and billionaires? Billionaires and billionaires. I've been with the women. I've done all that. Got it.

The only thing I haven't done is genuinely have a family with kids. So that's what I'm solving for now. And you might say, Adam, you're 45. Is it too late? Not even close, bro. I know plenty of men who have basically landed that plane in their 40s, some in their 50s.

How old are you when you had your first daughter? How old were you? Bailey, I was 44. Okay, there you go. So the challenge is, if you're a woman. Guys, let me do this. For those of you guys that are sick and tired of Adam always taking shots at Tom, can you send Tom a message and tell him how amazing he's looking lately with all the Stefano

Richie suits he's been wearing? Honestly. What is that? When we, in Vegas, we're walking on. Facts. You ready? I almost don't want to tell him. Kim's not going to be, she understands.

She gets it. I stand this way because I have stiff arm this way. Vinny stands this way. Rob is in the back with Adam. Girls are running and we can't let that happen. You have to protect them. So if you love Tom and you don't like Adam bully and Tom with his age, I don't just send him an act to Tom and tell him how amazing it looks.

Go ahead. You should have seen it. We're walking down there. These women are throwing underwear. You don't need to add anything else to it. When we do it, just leave it. Go ahead, Adam. Let people hype you up.

You don't need to be the hype man for yourself. Yeah, that's, by the way, there's plenty of times where I make fun of Tom's age. This is not one of those times. This is where I'm advocating that Tom took time to become a man of status of valor. You think so, PBD? I wouldn't do that to Tom, Pat. Well, listen, we're going to see. But go ahead.

Keep going. So I'm at the White House the other day. Here we go. And I'm having a conversation with a beautiful woman in her 40s. And she says, what do you want to talk about? She's interviewing me. And I said, I can talk about whatever. I can talk politics.

I can talk business. Are you going to give a shout out to like seven people right now? I mean, Pat, shout them out. You want to know what my point is. How can I get to my point if you can interrupt me? Shout out to your point. I don't appreciate you, bullying, Tom. Go ahead.

Go ahead, Kamala. I don't know if we have that kind of time. So I'm at the White House and I'm speaking with this woman. And she says, let's talk about dating in the marketplace. And I go on this rant about how the number one thing that men want in their life, even he could pull up this poll. I think it was a pupil. Still to this day, young men want to have married and get married and have a kid.

Yeah. Was that not number one? And then they said women, where does that rank on the list? They're having to kids. Conservative males. Sure. Conservative young males want to get married. Well, liberal males are called gays.

Yeah. No, no, but conservative young males do want to get married and have kids. It's at the top of the prior. And where was it at for women? Low. It was number 12. Yeah, low. So there's a huge schism between what men want and what women want.

But to my friends out there, ladies, this is how it's going to end up on you. Here's how men operate. You tell me if this works. Yeah. Men want to make money. Why do we have nice house? houses, nice cars, nice clothes, nice jewelry. Not to impress other dudes.

You think I care about impressing these guys over here. Men do this to impress women. So men want to actively acquire dependence. You know when you do your tax forms? And they go, how many dependents you have? Pat, how many dependents do you have? Five. Okay.

You have four kids. You have Jen. These are your dependents. Okay. Women want to make money to do what? Be independent. I don't need no man. I got my own money.

Well, here's how that story ends. And if you believe there's 40-something-year-old beautiful woman, she goes, I'm dying to have a kid. I'm dying to have a family. And I fear that it's too late for me. What do you think? I go, sweetheart, it very well may be. You're in your 40s. Your prime has gone from you.

You better hit a Kobe Bryant last second shot clock if you're going to have a kid. You told her that? Yeah. And she goes, you're right. She starts crying. Is that like a pickup line? No, it was not a pickup line, Pat. PPD. I'm trying to tell story here, sir.

I'm really trying to follow where you're going with this. Well, go ahead. Stopped interrupting me, sir. I'd be done with the story. Keep going at them. Okay, I'm sorry. But there's more women than ever freezing their eggs. There's more women than ever considering having a baby alone. Imagine that.

How do you do that? They have an egg. They have an embryo. They put the sperm in and they have a baby. Let me tell you. And there's no man around. And this, unfortunately, is the future for women. And then I'll land the plane here.

Land it. I've interviewed all types of people. What is... Glass of wine and a turkey bistro. When we interviewed, Tom, I just was trying to be nice to you. Don't make me do this to you now. Thank you, sir. We're going off the rails here.

Going off the rails. PBD, when we interviewed Tate, what's the one concept? The one thing he goes, you really want me to go to jail? You would have been when it canceled? What was the one topic he didn't want to talk about? Women.

Women and feminism. Because this is the one thing you can't talk about. The bottom line is this. women have been fed a complete crock of crap that they don't need no man, that they don't need to get married, that they don't need to have no kids. And what's going to happen is they're going to turn 40 and they're going to realize, wow, it's all been a lie. You know, I had a very public issue with Chelsea Handler.

I'll go 10 toes down deep on you, ladies, you do not want to end up like Chelsea Handler. A bitter 50-year-old woman that's still clinging to the jokes that were funny 30 years ago. It ain't cute anymore, Chelsea, with your newest facelift. So men can take longer to marinate. So the young men out there, if you're in your 20s and your 30s and you haven't figured it out, and you're not getting late or you haven't find a woman, give it some time. For the women in their 20s and 30s that think that they're going to give it some time and figure it out, the sad news is you're not.

And that's the bottom line. That's the sad truth of reality. And I don't care what anybody says men and women are different. Men are going to take time. Is there anything you want to say? Is there anything you want to say? Because I've got a few things I want to say. I think you're going to say what I'm going to say.

Before you say anything, I want to show what's important because I always like to keep my commitments. Rob, can you please show our friend here what we did for him? So show the before picture. So that's a nice picture. Use that. When you have small shoulders, use a picture like that. But if you do at no cost, by the way, don't worry about Zelling or sending any kind of money. Go to the next slide, Rob, if you could.

So that's a good picture he should use. That actually looks good. This angle is a good angle for him. Nice symmetry with his nose, kind of twisted to the right a little because mine's going to the left. And then you see the ears, the eyebrows, beautiful eyes. But then look what we did. Here's what we did. Go to the next one, Rob, if you could.

See? The left picture, better shoulders. Yeah. The right one, not exactly. And if you really want to go to it, go ahead, Rob. If you really want to go to like, you can. But there's a lot of different things we could do. Looks like Brandon.

He does look like Brandon. Anyways, you have autism too. Look, here's what I will tell you, man. Be very careful who you take the device from. Oh, my God. Today's social media, I watch some of these guys talk in such a certain way. And then go to the proof. What's life look like?

You know, I met a guy the other day who has 11 kids. I think his name is Moshe. Yeah. I mean his wife got married in the early 20s. Okay. And they have 11 kids, no twins. and she had them all herself. Yeah.

Okay. Incredible story. Incredible family. What's the lady's name? What's her name? That's Yafa. I don't know Yafa who you are. Congratulations.

We need to turn people like that into heroes. Yafa, whoever you are, credit to you, right? For carrying and having 11 kids. So to me, I looked at the numbers here. Do you know in the history of America, we had 3.6 million kids born last year in 2025, okay? Adam, do you want to know, with 340, million kids, we had 3.6 million kids born last year. With 300, so we had 300, 40 million people in

America. We had 3.6 million kids born. So just in 1950, what's the population, Rob, in 1950? What's U.S. population in 1950? I think it's 180 or something like that. What's U.S. population 1950 to 180? Okay. With 151 million kids, we had 3.6 million kids. Wow. In 1950. Stay with me here. Yes. Do you know three times in the history of America, we went on a run where Americans had 4 million plus kids every year. One time we did five years in a row, one time we did seven years in a row, one time we did 11 years in a row. Okay. And the highest we've ever done is like 4.23 million kids, 4.23 million kids. And we went through a list of why we think this is taking place. Do you know the craziest number about 1950 versus today?

What's that? In 1950, I think we were doing 3.75 kids or 3.57 kids birth rate. Today's 1.58. But in 1950, only 35% of women were in the workforce. Today, it's 70%. Bingo. That are under workforce. Yeah. 35, let me finish. 35, 70%.

You know what my challenge is? Last time we're having dinner with these three guys. And Blake is sitting next to me. Model-looking guy with his beautiful wife. I saw the wife at the church the other day while I went to the tiny dancer thing. Let me show you guys something. Can I brag a little bit? Can I brag just a little bit?

I'm trying to see if I can even show this video or not. Tiny dancing. I'll show you right now. So you know what I told them? I said, listen, man, whatever you do, go have another one. Go have another one. Go have another one. I said, listen, if my wife right now said she's open to the idea of another one,

I'm canceling the plans in Vegas and I'm traveling back home just to have another one. The idea of having a child, it is honestly, God's given me so many gifts. God's giving you so many gifts. The viewers that you're listening, God's giving you so many gifts. God's giving you so many gifts. Even if life sucks, man, if you really think about it, make a list of things to be grateful for, even after you got fired and you just filed a bankruptcy and your wife left you, you still have a lot of things to be grateful for.

Trust me, life is amazing. It sucks at times, but life is amazing. As crazy as it is for everything I've experienced, okay? Rob, I'm going to send this to you, Rob. As crazy as it is, this one little look here is everything. This one little look here. One little look here that you get when you go to church and she's doing a, what do you call it? She's doing a, she's doing something.

Look what she's doing and who she's looking at. Look at her in the middle. Look at her face. Look at her. Is that Brooklyn? Hey. Look at her. I love Brooklyn.

She's my favorite. Look at her. She's the one of the pitch dress in the middle guys. I am the happiest man alive with that look. I am the happiest man. alive when she just makes that look. Look at that look. It looks like a little mini Dylan, I swear.

So to me, this idea about having kids, the sooner you can start better for you. Of course, find a good partner. Don't just go screw run and just say, I'm just going to have a kid, and that's all I'm going to be doing. We were talking about a guy that I met him the first time with his wife.

That marriage didn't work out. So you got another girl pregnant, and that relationship didn't work out. Then you have to take care of that kid. Then there's that person in your life. Then you have to marry somebody else. Then you have to do this, you know, baby mama drama and all that noise that you're creating in your life, you have to find a way to do it the right way, folks. And remember, just because somebody's overly

confident and convincing doesn't mean they're right. Doesn't mean they're right. Look at people with what life gets results. That's a peaceful life. And by the way, you can still get married and it could not work yet. You can still have kids and it could be painful. It's going to be challenging. But there's not a better feeling. All my accomplishments I've had in my life, whatever the accomplishments that some people may be like, oh my God, I can't believe you did this. I have my biggest accomplishments are these four kids. Greatest gift God ever gave me. I don't have a better gift than that. And by the way, when I tell you, of course, my wife is within that family because we made these kids together. Okay. So the love is equal there. But the gift that we got, the houses,

the travels, the meetings, the money, nothing comes close to those four gifts God gave you. So whoever this guys, and I'm sure he's a nice guy. Okay? And by the way, I don't even know. I'd like to know. Like, if somebody says stat like that, I want to know, are you part of the LGBTQ community? Are you? If you're gay and saying stats like that, what do you think? How was your upbringing? What was your family like? What was your mom and dad like? What was your relationship like? We don't know these stories. We don't. So this is me talking from my opinion on what I think on having kids. If you're able to do

it, life changing. So I want to play this next clip and Tom, I'm going to come to you first. Here's Tom Brady. Tom Brady, you know, when it comes on to talking about father, there's one interview that he once did where a guy asked him a question, and the question was, who's your hero? And Rob, I don't know if you have that one or not. I haven't sent it to you. So if you find it, it's not on you.

I didn't send it to you. He's been interviewed in a Super Bowl, and he asks, who is your hero? And I've seen this thing hundreds of times. It's that one right there. Can you pause it real quick? So imagine, this is the greatest quarterback of all time. he is one of the most incredible competitors of all time, obsessive personality, paying attention to details.

Nobody puts more pressure on him than himself. Comes from an amazing family of a bunch of sisters. I think it's three of them. Great mom and dad. He's being asked at the Super Bowl by another kid. Who's your hero? Look at the reaction. Who's my hero?

It's a great question. Well, I think my dad is, my hero because he's someone that I look up to every day and my dad can you he didn't have to say anything he didn't have to say anything you saw it all in his eyes so so now watch watch what happens when your family raise a family would love and tough love in this example he talks about how children only grow outside of their comfort zone so don't get it twisted love isn't like oh my God You can never make my little Johnny would never make a mistake. No, they would make a mistake.

And they're going to make a lot of mistakes. And they're going to make a lot of things that are going to be dumb. And, you know, you're going to have to come to their defense at times. Sometimes they're going to be screwing up and, you know, where it is something they did wrong. But watch how he explains your tough love from a parent. And Tom, I want to come to you with this one. Go ahead, Rob. Most people don't want to be pushed that hard.

They want to be pushed to their level of comfort. And once they're outside their comfort zone, They're like, oh, I'm not used to this. Oh, I don't like this. My heart's beating too fast. Or, man, I'm feeling different feelings and emotions. And it's like, that's where the growth lives. You need coaches that push you outside of your comfort zone

because that's how you grow. And that's how you begin to develop self-confidence and self-esteem in what you're doing. You try, you fail. They push you to deal with the failure. You get another chance to go out and practice and practice it. Then you succeed and you realize, oh, that's what you fail. what I need to do differently the next time, as opposed to the athletes who try something that's hard,

they fail, and now it discourages them from trying to say anything that's hard again. Bulletproof mindset. Tom, thoughts. Your daughter is a competitive swimmer, so that's why I'm coming to you. Yeah, it's really funny. You could have the same parents and you have kids that are very different in their own way and their own uniqueness. And that uniqueness is just the God-given beauty of the fingerprint of each kid that's there. But I have one who's very, I don't know which one's more competitive, like deep in their heart, but I know which one's more competitive out there on her sleeve. So I got one of them that's really, really competitive, and she knows that you've got to keep working on it. You got to keep working on it. And she's got this whole thing. It's like,

I'm strong on land, fast on the water. And so she's going to work out. She's doing stuff. and she understands the sacrifices. I think one of the things was, you know, setting a vision for them, you know, setting a vision for your kids and putting it out there. And I told Bailey early on, I said, you know, your GPA, you know, extra credit things, you know, captain of a team, doing the yearbook, add all that up. And you're building this resume for life. And that way you can go and you can choose what you want to do out in the future.

or other people can choose it for you. And you got to get, but guess what? There's people out there that want it, and somebody wants it more than you want it. And that creates competition. But you have to give them the love and support, but you don't insulate them from consequences. It drives me nuts. You know, when I was growing up, it was a different world. And my mom would just say, hey, before the sun comes down, you'd be back home.

And I was on my bike, down two doors down with my buddy. and that was it. Now everybody worries about their kids. It's like when I go to the ocean, I see kids with these little slippers to walk in the ocean, you know what I'm talking about, and water wings and a life jacket. And I said, look, if they're not ready for the ocean,

they should be learning to swim at a public pool with a teacher or something somewhere. They shouldn't be in the ocean. But why are they got water wings and a life jacket, like they're about to jump off a cruise ship that's listening? That's ridiculous to me. You got to give them room to try and room to fail. And we protect everybody from emotions.

And Tom Brady is exactly right. He is so correct. Set the challenges out. And, you know, be there to help them. Be there to encourage them. And the power of parents, Pat, I get to see firsthand with you with what you're doing with Dylan, Tico, Brooklyn, and Senate live. So it's like a training manual that I've had for the three years that I've been here.

And we talked about sometimes, like, you need a good, father. You need a good family, but sometimes when the father's not there, like with me, he was there, but he wasn't there. And then once he's gone, a strong mother who steps up, Pat, how my mom stepped up, took the torch and ran, you know, I can't tell you.

She's an angel. Pat, the, as you were playing that, my mom messaged me and said, Vinnie, during Brooklyn, she goes, I had that feeling when you were winning the trumpet awards when I was young. I won the Conrad Giles Award at such a level. She just messed Tom. My mom, and I'm telling you right now, the important,

of not giving up and going there. When I called, I'm going to the military. I'm doing this. Mom, I'm leaving. I'm going to go be an actor. She's like, do it. I'm in California and I feel like my world's coming to an end. I'm losing friends to drugs and everything. I go, mom, I met this guy on Instagram. Patrick Medibh. She goes,

Soudai'le, he's a Syrian. Go. Take the leap of faith. Go and do it. You need those people. And I know sometimes there's exceptions to the rule. People that adopted, people that go and they do it. But having that support and having that love, I think, is so, So, so important. Seeing Brooklyn look at you like that, that feeling, that feeling for people that don't have kids makes me like, okay, I need to step up because you need to have it.

And yeah, and that's it. And my mom's watching right now. So mom, I love you. Sweet Lana, we love you. By the way, more dessert. More dessert, mom. Don't cry, mom. She just messaged me. Don't make, don't cry. Pat, can I put a ribbon on this? Yeah, of course. You're going to appreciate this. So we're talking about Tom Brady, who's the freaking goat. I love Tom Brady. And you're talking to. about kids. There's a special kid out there that's a sick athlete. His name is Dylan

Bet David. Here's some video, some footage of Tom Brady throwing the football with Dylan Bet David running routes. Oh, he said, he said, play it back so they can see what he does. He corrects him in front of everybody. This is a perfect example.

Hit him, Dylan. Hey, right? No, no, I said, hi. He says, learns your lessons, young man. That is a perfect example. example of time. Where are my gloves? Come on, heat.

By the way, he had PBD run a route. He's not PBD. He says, he says, when are you going to run a route? I'm like, what do you mean? Run a route. Do you have that one or no? Do you run out of finding that one? I think you do run a route.

By the way, Tico also ran a route. Is this it? But Tico's a brainiac. Tico also got the ball, by the way. They're playing catch right there. They're playing a right. What do you think, man? What do you think?

I think he throws it better than me. Good stuff right here. All right, let's see what you got, was this 24, 23? This was 23. Anyway, so September 1st, 2020. Go for it. Go for it, Adam.

If you want to put the ribbon. This was it. This was amazing. A moment, I mean, listen, Tom Brady's the goat. And the fact that you, you're talking life lessons, you're talking Dylan, you're talking what it's like to be a father. I mean, Tom Brady is incredible. I'll say this.

You know, I interview a lot of my friends, like my buddies. and I go, all right, guys, tell me what it's all about. They go, Adam, let me tell you something. It's all about the kids. You go, yeah, of course I love my wife. I love my wife to death. Of course I love my wife. She's the best.

But it's all about the kids. I go, give me the real stuff. They go, it's all about the kids. You know what? No married men with kids say? They go, dude, just get married. Be with one one the rest of your life. Don't even worry about kids.

You don't need kids. They do nothing for you. Never have them. They always say it's all about the kids. So I believe the people with kids telling me about the kids versus some weird LGBT dude in London. Whatever he is, whatever he may be, I trust the people that have kids to give me the insight versus. Is he LGBT? It doesn't even matter to me.

The fact that he doesn't have kids is the fact that we don't have shoulders. Oh, here, hold on. Here's PBD running around. Which one's this? This guy. Part of me doesn't want to show this. I don't want to get a call from the Raiders. Listen, go ahead, go ahead, Rob.

Just short, it's okay. It's okay. Watch this. Look at you. Picking on the young. Sean is in the back. I love, look at Gabriel. Look at Gabriel in the back.

Gabriel Shnamolo. Giva. Gvaya. Gvaya. With a suit. Let's see for going to catch you. Brady to bet David right here. Look at this guy.

Oh, we got him. Nice. Guys, I'm going to represent you, pal. Be your agent for, the Raiders. Let me just say one thing. On behalf of the Oakland Raiders who I've suffered with for years, that's better than anything we got. I'd like to give you an invitation to training camp. Yes. Pat, is there any cooler feeling that guys getting together, go, you, Brady, the kids, throwing the football. We could say we love women and going out. There's no cooler feeling

than the boys hanging out tosses football like that. It's good. It's good. Okay, Rob, do we want to do Iran story or do we want to do the, Tom, I'm going to come to you with Iran story because there's a lot of stuff that's going on with that that just came out. I think Whitkoff, is that the one that's in the story wrap or? Yes, they met yesterday and spoke for hours. Looks like no nuclear deal has been reached. No nuclear deal has been reached. That's page 26.

And then not only did no nuclear deals reach, but there was a lot more than that. So when a public... Iran, which one is it that says they went to it? Viewing... There it is. Viewing the satellite imagery and monitoring the Iranian nuclear sites We don't see any evidence that they are trying to reconstitute their nuclear weapon programs, said David Albright, a former United Nations weapons inspector, president of Institute of Science.

They are essentially on hold. Steve Whitcock, the U.S. negotiated to Tofox News, that Iran is probably a week away from having industrial grade, bomb-making material. That assessment would imply that a significant part of Iran's uranium enrichment capability survived last year's strikes, and that Iran can also still access some of its enriched uranium stockpiles, which were believed to have been buried under rubble last June. Many analysts are skeptical that Iran could easily do so at the bombed facilities. While this is going on, there's a couple of things.

Iran reportedly turns to Kymn News, China, to checkmate U.S. On top of that, a tweet, Mario Nafal, just sent that. I don't know if it's Mario Nafal or if it was somebody else, Rob, I just sent it to you a minute ago, not a minute ago, probably 30 minutes ago, reporting that you see it right here Marco Rubio you have that one yeah Marco Rubio just in Senator Secretary Marco Rubio State Department is authorized an evacuation of non-emergency US personnel and their family from Israel because of safety risks and China is also evacuating their people from Iran so if they're both on the same page do you think

there's been a call between the two of them together hey are you guys like If China's leaving as well, then that means China and U.S. are on the same team with this. If that's what's taking place. Correct me if I'm wrong, Tom. They seem like they're being teammates here on leaving. And I don't know. Obviously, you know, something's changed with tariffs. So China's probably sitting in a better place with the tariffs that was, you know,

the change due to Supreme Court. But Tom, what do you think is happening here? I think there's two things happening. The first thing that's happening is Whitkoff and Jerry Kersner have been there. three times they've been through it, three times they're doing, it's a little bit of window dressing. They know that they've got that the simple thing, you must stop weapons grade creation forever. You know, people say, well, what about nuclear energy? Number one, you've got more natural gas than God. You don't need nuclear energy, but nuclear energy is made with different

materials that are prepared differently that can be prepared above ground and new small footprint efficient reactors. Okay, what's your next excuse? I'm just not going to give it up. And I think that they've negotiated three times in the last week, Pat. They've given it up and we've pulled everything in there. And Midnight Hammer at the time, you guys remember, hold me honest on none. I'll hold me honest, but make sure I'll hold you period.

No, no. Oh, thank you. Just check me on this on the history. There were analysts out there, defense analysts, like people from Janes that said that Operation Midnight Hammer may not have done as much damage as we thought it did. Did we beat the crap out of some stuff in some facilities? Yes. But did we get down deep enough to really get to things? Maybe not. And so now it looks like there's intelligence that says, hey, we can do it. And so I think we've got everything lined up, Pat, and I think we're going to strike. And I think they're going to hit the

facilities. There's three separate locations that are targeted. We've got all of the advanced tactical and I don't help me out what is the name of the air force base that the u.s uses in northern israel it's where they anyway there's like 1520 of our advanced technical fighters there the USS gerald ford has moved and so there's there's three angles of attack here and you've also got the big high the big high altitude bombers sitting on Diego garcia getting ready to go with all the refueling so you can see three punches they're ready to be thrown and I think everybody knew, Pat, that Iran was not going to give up this number one request. Never do it again.

Is it the Ramat Air Force Base is where they put all the advanced fighters. I think they knew it, Pat, that Iran was not going to say, you can never develop a bomb. I don't think they were going to get that up. And Hezbollah allegedly says won't intervene if U.S. strikes Iran. Group says, but it does have a red line. What the hell do you mean? You won't intervene. You're funded by Iran.

What means you won't intervene? Can I translate that? We're all running to Lebanon. Please don't kick our ass on the way to do an errand in Iran. And then at the same time, Chamin A is having meetings with his leaders, allegedly, and his leaders are having to be blindfolded to walk into a tunnel like an underground location

to see him have a conversation with them just so you don't know where you're walking and where you're being transferred. So they don't ride on him. So if you're captured later and you get something injected into you, courtesy of the pharmaceutical industry, and you start talking about everything you know. Can I show a question, though, Pat? Correct me if I'm wrong.

We did the bombing, we did bunker busters, everything. Everybody was going crazy at World War III. Okay, done. Now, again, they're trying to build or nuke or whatever. So we're going to bomb them again. But I thought the mission was the people, the 40,000 that were dead in the streets. The mission was to help the people get rid of the leader.

And, like, bombing the nuclear site, okay, I understand that. That's very important. But the mission is the people that are dying that are still dying in the streets. The people that are in the prisons right now, they're getting tortured and killed. I thought that was the mission. So I'm kind of confused. You're asking a question that a lot of people are asking. And what a lot of other people are saying is, hey, this sounds like the, hey, there's weapons of mass destruction.

It sounds like that script a little bit. And that criticism is a fair criticism to give because, you know, there's an audience that voted for no war. So, and by the way, they have the right to be as critical as they want, but at the same time, you know, if they do it and it's a surgical mission like they did with Venezuela, Trump's administration also gains a lot of respect for doing it that way. So we'll see. Rachel Campos Duffy did say something, which was very interesting this morning. She said about, you know, Trump's getting a little too cozy with communist Delci Rodriguez. and she says she can't be trusted. Every time Trump, watch this, every time.

Is that the clip? Yes, sir. Can you play that clip and go to the last 30 seconds? Play it from right there. Go for it. Oh, we have issues with that. Okay. So she says every time Trump mentions her.

One last thing. I am coming to you right now from Miami. Every time President Trump says, I'm working well with Delci Rodriguez. Every time he says that he drops five points here in Miami. Think about that. where people hate the communists and know exactly what this is about. We need to stabilize, yes, but we need to announce an election date and get to an election

because that's how we actually have freedom and security in the Western Hemisphere. I agree. I agree. So meaning if they're going to do this Iran thing and the elections in Iran are not going to be quick or fast, another regime is going to come in and take over. That's what I'm saying. That's what I don't want. But at the same time, listen, this is the risk of diplomacy. This is the risk of war.

This is the risk of being a president. Adam, do you have any thoughts on this? Of course. Well, taking out Iran and the Ayatollah is America first. How could I say that? What does that mean? Because if you're only a surface level thinker, then you're not going to agree with me.

What do you mean? You're just trying to get us in more wars. Nobody wants war. But you know the iceberg effect where you only see the top 10% of the iceberg, but the 90% is below? Let me walk you through this right now. So nuclear weapons.

Hey, how you do, Mirol? I love your nuclear weapons, of course. We've been talking about that forever. That's the surface level. Okay, what's going on? There's 40,000, 80,000 Iranians killed. Okay, that's what's going on there. Here's what we do.

Here's what we do know. Israel, I'm sorry, Iran fears Israel more than they do the United States. Because Israel has taken out all their proxies. And if we just look at history, Israel has done more to affect Iran than the United States. It's kind of like Israel will beat them up in the fight and the United States comes in in the 10th round and knocks them out So you should be worried about what Israel's doing So beyond that why is taking out Iran America first the deepest level is if you take out Iran who gets affected the most Our greatest enemies China and Russia because who how does he how does it how fuels all of

China's economy Venezuela in Iran the oil So if we take over Venezuela's oil which we've done essentially if we somehow uh replace the regime in iran china will get weaker so our greatest foe or competitor or enemy whatever you want to call them is china but before you beat the final boss like in mike tyson's punch out yeah you got to beat don flamenco and you got to beat the hippo you got to beat these guys and then you get to the final boss so and then here's the funniest thing about china they're so aligned with iran they're so aligned or aligned with the muslim world do you see see what China is doing to Muslims in China? They're putting them in camps, these Uyghurs.

I think, in fact check me on this, I think China has called Islam a mental disease. By the way, China is anti-religion. The Communist Party does not be believed. So it's all this duct tape diplomacy, all our enemies. Their only thing bonding them together is that they want to bring down America in the West. And what does Iran call America? America, the great Satan, Israel, the little Satan. They also say death to America, death to Israel, death to England. All our enemies have this duct tape diplomacy, and their only common bond is they want to take down America. If we can stay together and stay strong and not stay divided, we'll defeat these horrible enemies of ours.

It's a very high level of uncertainty of what's going to happen. No one knows what's going to happen. I have a very simple philosophy. I'm rooting for us to succeed on this mission. and I do believe Iran, the current regime, the IRGC, is horrible for the world, horrible for everybody, period. The way they treat their people, absolutely horrendous what they do. The world is a better place if they fall. Having said that, what is today, Rob?

Friday. Today is Friday. What do we have coming up? By the way, I had a conversation with Terence Howard yesterday. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. Guys, he said some stuff about Denzel. he said some stuff about. We talked about Epstein.

He talked about the girl. He talked about so many interesting things. That podcast is going to come out next week. And then what else do we have coming out next week? Joe Lonsdale as well. Oh, one of the co-founders of Palantir. Yeah, billionaire. And that's going to come out next week.

But in the interim, whatever you're doing, gang, have an incredible weekend coming up. And again, do not forget that this bullying needs to stop. I mean, seriously, it needs to stop. So if you want the bullion to stop, you know, send a message to Tom for him to, you know, get some. And if you want to criticize Adam about how much bullying he's doing, send a message to him as well. And Team USA, go to VTemerge.com, place you order. God bless everybody.

Have a great week. Vegas, baby.
