Did you ever think you would make it? I said I'm supposed to take sweetly different. I know this life man for me. Adam, what's your point? The future looks bright. My handshake is better than anything I ever signs. Right here. You are a one of one?

My son's right. I think I've ever said this before. How? Okay, gang, hope you had a good weekend. We've had to create a nine-step. process for Adam to say, go to the bathroom. We have to, like, escort them out, bring you back. You say, sit down, grab a seat, put the mic on. And to all the people that are supporting the cause for us to get a listicle set up for Adam, we are thankful for you. You've

changed our lives in a major way, but we have a massive announcement to make today. We have a spotter. About Manex, so stay tuned. It's a big announcement that took almost a year to get done, but we finally got it settled and it's exciting. This past weekend, I was at Marlago, doing a documentary. That was awesome, Pat. You know what was awesome about it is the fact that Benny Johnson just flat-out came out and said the fact that he paid for 2 million subscribers. I can't believe that. He flat out said he paid it with Fartcoin.

We'll talk about it. He's a good guy. He promoted Maneck. It was a great concept of what he was doing. It was fantastic when you see things like that that happened that people are just honest about it. So let me go through a couple different stories that we have here. So Trump, out of everything that's going on,

got to love this guy. He wants to declassify the Amelia Earhart Records and Vinny's ecstatic. So he's got so many things I'm going to talk about it. President Trump post cartoon image depicting him firing Fed chief Jerome Powell and then you have Trump to meet with top congressional leaders

Monday on shutdown as well as the admin reports 2 million illegal aliens out of the U.S. in the first eight months but those 2 million illegal aliens been, do you hear about it? No. What?

It just made sense. Benny got those 2 million subscribers. So the Trump's administration reports 2 million illegal aliens left But they're not watching Benny. That's what it is. That's awesome, buddy, with fart coin you paid for. What a fantastic guy, you know, Benny is.

Lithium Americans, Lithium America's share search, 90% has Trump request stake. Trump says he asks Somalia president. See, this is the part that people don't give him enough credit. Trump is so noble, people forget. You tell me you've met more of a noble man. Look what he does here. Honestly, I want you to read this. This is called nobility at the highest level.

So you've got all of these different problems you're dealing with. Think about it. You tell me you know president, as noble as President Trump, that said he asked the Somalian president if he would like to take Ilhan Omar back. With all the stuff he's busy with, he finds time. You are that busy with everything you have going on. And you still are noble enough to say, can we send Elhan Omar? I don't care what anybody says. says about him. That may be one of the most noble things

he's done in 2025. Multitasker. What did the leader of Somalia have to say about her returning? They said, no. They said, no, we don't want her back. How did they not want her back? You know, it's really crowded. We're kind of busy that day. Voters in major U.S. city, new capitalism only slightly

more favorably than socialism. Fox News poll finds, and then Democratic Party hits historic low favorability, a new national poll, which is obviously devastating for a lot of people. one person dead and nine injured and shooting and fire at Michigan Church out of nowhere you hear a story like that devastating

I think it was a Mormon church if I'm not mistaken we're going to get into the fact Howard Rubin ex New York City financier with ties to George Soros arrested for allegedly sex trafficking women to sex am I reading you correctly dungeon? Oh yeah Penn House so New York Post wow I mean that's some stuff right there

Netanyahu faces Waukat at UN after Abbas receives applause. Russia has helped in China prepare for Taiwan invasion. Mar, Bilmar, media ignore persecution of Christians in Nigeria because Jews aren't involved. 7,000 Christians have been killed in Nigeria this year. Group says, unbelievable. It's bad. Yeah, the video. I saw video of a guy saying, all my family members here at the South were killed.

I have relatives in that house where he says, This is immediate family. These are not friends. This is blood. Those guys were killed. Living in that kind of a setting just because you're a Christian going through it. U.S. birth rate plummets

and to all-time low as housing prices continue to rise. And this co-play thing, we didn't get into it last week. I think it's a very, very important story for us to get into. Tom was like, can we just cover it? Husband of HR exec and co-play, kiss cam, debacle was actually at the same concert with a date. So at least, you know, at least it's not as bad as people think it as Vinny. Yeah.

She's there with the CEO and he's there with somebody. Nice. And her husband wasn't home alone and lonely. That's right. Michigan Church on fire after shooting leaves multiple people hurt. Arrest made after Boder opened fires on Southport Waterfront Bar, killing three, injuring five. Eric Adams steps down, by the way, and ends re-election bid for New York City Mayor and Tom

because he's so connected, he got a text. from folks in a polling connected community telling them even with Eric Adams dropping out what could happen? This is why I love the fact that I'm so connected in the community, man. There's so many benefits to it. Trump shares AI-generated video promoting Medbed conspiracy theory

and then what to make of Sinclair's Jimmy Kimmel Live decision amid the show 70% rating drop. And last but not least, Dearborn's chief of police, Hamdullah, video. Hohmdala, steers outrage as mosque prayer calls in Michigan face scrutiny. Tolerance has been weaponized, which will cover that. I know you got some stuff that you want to say about that.

Let me give you one major announcement, gang, that what just happened right now, it's very big for us. Some of you guys, I mean, this has been a record-breaking month and a history of the company with Mnack. Massive. I've never gotten this many of Mnakes. Rob is talking about the amount of Mnakes is getting, but there's one massive announcement that we've been working on. the first strategic partner that became the biggest shareholder outside of us in Menect. And it's a great story. I don't want you to watch the whole five-minute clip or post it on social afterwards.

I just want you to watch the first minute on how exciting this is. There's so many big things happening behind closed doors with Meneck. We're hiring machine learning engineers left and right. And we're hiring right now if you're looking at the same, I want to be part of Menect, I want to be part of E.T. We're aggressively hiring. but this is our latest strategic partner with Meneck that just happened last Friday we shot the video. The announcement internally was finalized two weeks ago.

Go ahead, Rob. I have a big announcement to make to you today. Let me tell you what it is for Meneck. Meneck today, September, the biggest month the company has ever had in the history, but the announcement is very simple. We've been working for one year. I have a very special guy sitting next to me today who was officially the biggest strategic partner and investor in Meneck, and that's none other than Tony.

Robbins. I'm excited about this partnership. Thanks for going by. Yes, of course. I'm excited too. I mean, if you're watching, I think one of the most important principles of success in business that's certainly shaped my life is proximity as power. The first multi-billionaire I met, he's saying, tell me your goals, tell me your dreams, and I told them all about him. And he says, Tony, if you want to do that, you've got to know a lot of these certain people. He goes, how much time do you spend with those people? I said, almost never. He goes, brother, what made me a billionaire's proximity is power. If you get in the environment with people that are the best in the world, you're one or two people away from

the deal that you want to make. But if you're trying to do something you don't know anybody, you can forget it. And what I love about this is you're democratizing it. You make it so we get access to people. If you on LinkedIn, it's really nice, but most people are not going to respond. You know, maybe 10% of the people respond if they're a player. They don't have time and energy. But in my case, I'm doing this and I'm just donating the money that's received. I just want to empower people and help people and go on this journey with you because I know what's coming. I don't think you're announcing everything. No, not yet. They don't know everything that's coming on. You can pause it right there. We'll post a video all over social

afterwards. Guys, this is, the last week, the amount of downloads with the app right now, it's unbelievable, messages, calls, all of it. And everybody online is like, oh my God, you know, do these people charge this much? And do those people, is Pat $48,000 an hour? I'm actually not $48,000 dollars enough. For a keynote, it's $350,000 to $500,000 per hour that people pay gladly that we do. However, on Meneck, if you want access, it's that much. FYI, 25 years ago, if you wanted to book President Trump to speak for one hour, you know how much it was 25 years ago? One million dollars. And guess what? He was worth it. If you have access to people like this, now, if you're watching this right now, you're saying,

man, I want to be able to talk to, can I get a message back from Ray Luce for 75 bucks? Yes. Can I message Terrence Howard, the actor? Yes. Can I message some basketball players and talk to him, yes. Can I message some business people and find out how to raise money? Yes. Can I, can I talk to some guys like Tony Robbins? Yes, that access is available. You can go out there and try to cold email somebody, less than 1% chance they respond. Instagram X tweet, less than 5% chance. LinkedIn's around 10%. Manette is 94% response rate. If you haven't yet use the app, you can download the app and start manecting today. And we have so many more big announcements that's coming, and I think LinkedIn missed the opportunity. There's a massive

business community that's looking for a place to network with each other. That's LinkedIn is becoming that for now. I'm excited by it. There's a lot of good things that are going on behind closed doors, but we just want to announce to all of you guys. Tony Robbins is officially the strategic partner with Manette. More announcements coming soon. I'm excited about it. Anyways, all right, let's go into the next news. And by the way, if you want to connect Tom, Vinny, or Adam, You can manect them now as well. Vinny's been very busy lately. Manecting calls a lot of different things that's going on,

but you can connect them directly. All right, let's get into the story. Rob, the story I wanted to get into is Portland first. Okay, so if you want to pull up a clip, Trump says he is ordering troops to Portland, escalating domestic use of military. This is a Wall Street Journal story. By the way, things in Portland are absolutely

mind boggling. The local citizens are begging saying, can you please come? These are some people that didn't vote for Trump. These are some people that don't like Trump. They may have not voted him. They wanted Kamala, but they're like, listen, enough is enough. This is getting out of control. Rob, do you want to play this clip just to kind of give a glimpse to people what's going on over there? Night after night, this is the scene. This is Portland. This is not a third world country. This is not Afghanistan. They routinely call police about their... noise and crime.

I'm calling about the protesters. They cornered two women out here. They need help. We send the cops. But the cops did not come. Residents on their own. Turn that, damn!

It's midnight! We the people need to sleep! You voted for Kamala. Yep. You voted for this. Some confrontations end with residents getting assaulted. First, a bullhorn, then a fist. No arrest was made despite the injuries.

On this night in late June, federal police used two Federal police used tear gas and flashbangs. Again, no Portland police in sight. It came out later in court that one officer told another, if it were not ice, we could assist directly. Julie Parrish sued the city to force police to enforce local laws. This is a full-on abdication of police duty in a four-block radius that impacts some of the most vulnerable Oregonians that we have.

Now they've said, we're just going to let violent riders do this for 80 straight nights, and we don't care. Portland police responded, we take these concerns seriously. At the same time, we are committed to protecting individuals' rights to express themselves peacefully. The Portland approach is pathetic. It's childish. And if you enable people to behave the way the protesters have and wreck the neighborhood for everyone else, they will come back and wreck it the next night. The protest chaos, which began with riots aimed at social justice in 2020, has severely damaged Portland's reputation.

It's now ranked by the non-pe. there. By the way, weren't you guys the same people that were saying defund the police? Yeah. Weren't you guys the same people that wanted that Chas City and Trump sucks and, you know, we want them out, no kings, kings, you know, we want, we want everything to be free. And now you're complaining? These are your policies. You voted for these policies. You chose these policies. These are the leaders you chose that are okay with this, that are managing these policies the way that they are. President Trump sent that he was direct in the Pentagon to send troops to

Portland to protect federal facilities, escalating his push to deploy the military in the U.S. cities. Trump said in a post on Trude Social on Saturday that he was ordering Defense Secretary Pete Hacks said to use the military to protect immigration and customs enforcement facilities, which he said were under siege from attack by Antifa, a loose network of anti-fascist protesters that Trump recently called a terror group. I'm also authorizing full force if necessary. And I think Trump said something about it in a press conference, Rob, if you want to play that clip. When you go out to Portland and you see what's happening in Portland, this is like

nobody's ever seen anything like it every night, and this has gone off for years, they just burned the place down and, you know, the shop owners, most of them have left. But the few shops that are open, they just use plywood and just like three-quarter-inch plywood. They don't put storefronts because they know it's going to be burned down. These are professional agitators. Right. These are bad people, and they're paid a lot of money by rich people. some of whom we know.

I'm sure I know some. I don't know if I knew I wouldn't associate because I'll be in trouble because Pam will say why are you associating with this person? But I will tell you that these are bad, bad people and they're paying a lot of money, millions of dollars. But take a look at Portland sometime. These are, wow, these are crazy people

and they're trying to burn down buildings, including federal buildings. And on my list of things that I want to do before we finish up with the cities because I think we're going to whip the cities back into shape but we have to we cannot let our cities and that's a small example

but it's the most violent example it's every night and they've done it for years you think maybe at some point they made their point and what are they doing but we're going to get out there and we're going to do a pretty big number of this yes Tom so it's really interesting in Portland

to bring some numbers behind us the president's right we need the federal government to intervene. And you want to know why? 69 officers resigned coming out of COVID 2020 to 2021, stating that a combination of the COVID policies and just allowing them to create that zone down to town. One year later, that number was announced at the end of 21, so 20 to 21. That year, it was 229 had resigned. In 2023, the city declined to state after being. asked by multiple media outlets, including Fox, how many people have resigned on the police force

or took early retirement in 2023? They refused to state. Then the Manhattan Institute published that privately that the government in Portland had said they have a major staffing crisis with the police. They simply don't have enough and they can't get anyone to take the jobs. And ladies and gentlemen, the mayor, Mayor Rainbow, comes to the microphone saying, we don't need the federal government, we don't need the help. They are in the middle of a staffing crisis where if she had to put her hand in the air at a congressional hearing, she would have to admit that they've lost over 300 officers that haven't been replaced and they can't get people to take the job. That's her? Well, this is the governor of Oregon. Yes, Tina Kotech. That's a girl?

Yes. Do you play it? There's no. way. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think she's a lesbian. I'm sorry, Governor Lane Bo. Oh, governor. We're in the central city of Portland, Oregon, and it is a beautiful day. And we are very happy to be here speaking with you today. In my conversations directly with President Trump and September Keith Oberman. I thought that was Keith Oberman. I have been abundantly clear with them that Portland and the state of Oregon. It's always the black frame glasses. We believe in the rule of block, and we can manage our own. No, you can't.

With what? There is no insurrection. Well, really? There is no threat to national security, and there is no need for military troops in our major city. You can pause it right there. I mean, you say something like that, and choose the best backdrop with a boat coming by,

thinking like that's exactly what Portland is. I've been to Portland many, many times. There's some many good breweries up there, And the people are actually good people. But at the same time, it's a little weird. It's not, it's not, have you been in Portland? No, yeah, it's not. I did a comedy show, there was nothing funny about the area.

I've been there several times. It backs up to a Vancouver, Washington, also known as small Vancouver. And Pat's right, under the bridges, it used to be called, The Rose Garden was downtown, the trail, the jailblazers and all that went with that. And there's a lot of, it was rebuild that was going on, and there are small brewers. The Oregon breweries up there, Oregon Honeybeer, that was award winning. So, and this goes back 15 years ago, and now what?

I look up some of the stuff, and it's like backed off or they've moved. Yeah, and you know what I just did as well? I just went up here to see what's going on. Remember how California was the first time since 1851 that they lost people? In 2023, Oregon lost. They had 131,403 people that left versus 125 came in. So their net migration in 23 was minus 6,000. People left.

And then in Portland alone, that was Oregon. But in Portland alone, 4,000 residents left in 12 months, July to July, 22 to 23. Net government of Jamaica was voted by 11, Amazon net loss. Yeah, this is, people are not wanting to live in a place like this. And you say you have it under control? The governor has the audacity, say they have it under control. What do you think Trump's going to say? What do you think Trump says on the phone call?

I hope he goes to the receipts and saying, if it's under control, why was your own mayor talking to the Manhattan Institute at the end of 2020? less than two years ago, saying that you have a staffing crisis with your cops. Why say that? I want the president to go grab that stuff and put the receipts out. So it's not him versus them. That's a good point. I want the numbers out there.

Yep, Adam, thoughts. So the only place in the country I've never been is the Pacific Northwest. Portland, Seattle, the furthest northwest I've ever been in San Francisco. And there's nothing compelling me at this point to want to go there. I still see people from California. And I'm like, oh, you know, and they move to Miami. I mean, I'm like, well, man, you made it out, buddy. Congratulations. We've seen this happen in New York.

But they still say, well, you know, I'm going to miss California. I'm going to miss New York. People I run into from the Pacific Northwest, every time I talk to them, they're like, dude, there's nothing going on here at this point. It's all progressive woke ideology. And you know what sort of codified this? Remember we had the American gangster come on the show. His name is Chale Sonan. Do you remember that?

Yeah. Shout out to Chale, American badass UFC fighter. And we were talking about what's going on. his home state of Oregon. And he's like, look, man, the governor's a nice lady, Governor Tina Kotech, but this whole area needs a complete rude awakening right now. And it's going to take somebody like this, bad, bold, badass to get up there and clean this mess up. There needs to be mini-trumps all over the country. And I'm not saying they need to be mag extremists. That's not going to work in a place like Portland or Seattle or San Francisco.

but this progressive ideology goes lefter and left her and left her and someone needs to bring it back to the middle. This might be the got to do it. Yes. And you know one part where you think about people who finally realize they have to change some policies, folks from Portland, I know one thing for a fact. Most of you are not watching this podcast. No.

And those of you that are watching this podcast, you probably love your city. You don't want to leave and you want to see a change, okay? But the reality of it is, you either have to go around converting people's policies and asking them questions, because if you don't, if it gets voted like this over and over again, you voted for this. This is what you want it. If you don't want it, change the way you vote or else this will be the case for many, many years to come. And I don't think Trump's going to hesitate. I think Trump's going to send people there. And you're going to see when he sends people that within two weeks is going to clean up. But say they stayed it for two weeks. And then they leave two weeks that is still going to go back to the same thing. So the Antifa, unless if they're going around arresting Antifa members or saying anti-fascist, what's more fascist than what you're doing right there in the streets? Do you think that's the right thing to do? Do you guys watch the latest Joker movie,

not the musical, the one previous day that would walk in Phoenix one too many times. You know, those guys probably watch reruns of that Joker movie, the first Joker would walk in Phoenix. The one that I walked out of after 43 minutes knowing the fact that they're dividing America, you know, putting the hate into people who are business owners. They're bad people.

They're bad, that one right there. Anyways, let's go to the next story here, Rob. Michigan, one person dead, nine injured in a shooting and fire at Michigan Church. Police say, Rob, if you want to pull up the story, there's multiple stories that have of this one here. I'm going to go to the CNN one first, and I'm going to go to the other one. You can imagine all you want to do is go to church, and all of a sudden you're therein. At least four people were killed. This is the latest update I'm reading.

And eight others were wounded in a shooting at church. of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blank Township, Michigan, police said. Authorities say gunmen rammed a vehicle through the front of the church during a large service began shooting and an intentionally set of fire that grew into a large blaze. Officers exchanged fire with gunmen and killed them, according to police. Investigators have identified the man as Thomas Jacob Sanford, a 40-year-old from the nearby city of Burton. The FBI is now leading the investigation into a deadly shooting.

and suspected arson at a Michigan church. Bureau is investigating the incident as an act of targeted violence according to Ruben Coleman. Rob, if you want to play the clip. This is from inside the church as the shooting took place yesterday. We're not going to see anybody getting shot.

Are you sure, Rob? This is what was going on in the church? This is an older one. I think this is an older video. I think that's last week, which is still bad. I mean, you know what I mean? I don't think that's the same video. Then here's the, this is the police chief yesterday talking about the shooting, and then I also am talking about the shooter, which we prefer. Go shooting first.

Then we're going to talk about it here today. 10.20. That was happening at 10.25 a.m. at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which is located at 42-85 McAnlish Road. During this incident, what we know right now is that a 40-year-old suspect, from Burton. He's a male. He drove his vehicle through the front doors of the church. He then exited his vehicle, firing several rounds at individuals within the church.

Ten gunshot victims have been transported to local hospitals at this time, including one who has been deceased. Officers who were trained, immediately responded to the area. One was a DNR officer, and then one was a Grand Blank Township officer, where they met the suspect, and they engaged in gunfire with that particular individual, neutralizing that suspect, and that suspect is no longer with us, as I said, it is a 40-year-old male from Burton. During all this incident as well, there was a fire that occurred, and we believed that that was deliberately set by the suspect. We do believe that we will find additional victims once we have that scene secure. Okay, so a few things I'm seeing here about the guy. 40 years old, former Marine from 04208, served in Iraq in his tenure.

He lived there in Burton, Michigan, which is near Grand Blanc, drove the pickup truck. You're going through the whole thing that he just explained there. Casualties, we already talked about that. active targeted violence the attack occurred one day after the death of LDS church president Russell M. Nelson. I think he died at 101 years old. If I'm not mistaken, it was a 17th president, I think

could be the 14th or the 17th president, Rob, if you can verify that on which of the two he was. So Vinnie, what are your thoughts on this story? Well, I mean, if you're out there and you're listening to this and you're paying attention even a little bit, it's obvious what's happening, okay? Christians are under attack, and we are the most persecuted religion on the planet.

This weekend, Tom, I was listening to the audio Bible, and I'm not even joking, right when this was happening, Matthew, the verse of Matthew came up while he was saying, Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, and theirs would be the kingdom of heaven, okay? We're, it's, but we have so many stories. I'm not even to get into the second part of it, but, you know, in the last few weeks, there was a coach, this was kind of simple. He was praying with, with some of the,

the players he was shot at he was actually shot minneapolis trans shooter opens fire inside of a church while children are praying okay and now we have this the guy apparently had iEDs driving into a church and started showing and i've said this before and i apologize to everybody that thinks that i'm just repeating the same talking points it's not flesh and blood everybody thinks we're fighting antifa or china or muslims it's not that we are literally fighting the devil okay and our enemy is Satan, okay, and we're seeing it manifest here. His power is being manifested here on Earth, Tom, and it's undeniable at this point. Can you imagine, guys, could you imagine if every week, Adam, and this is for you guys too,

a synagogue was getting bombed, and look at that, look at that footage, look at that. Every week, that was happening to synagogues or, or, you know, mosques or temples, a Hindu temple. What the hell? They'd be an outrage. But for some reason, when it comes to us, when it comes to Christians, Nobody cares. This is going to be talked about for one more day and then it's over. And it's pissing me off because we need to step the hell up. Everybody steps up for everybody else, Papa, nobody steps up for us.

Well, we're incredibly, amen, Vinny. Amen to that. It's ridiculous. The Lord gave us Jesus Christ to save us from a broken world and did not promise that this world would bear a utopia. But living in the foundation of Christ, you go to make a strong and positive impact on everyone. and you pray for your enemies. And we are a very angry nation right now and there are things that are manifesting. And people say, well, it's not just Christians.

No, it's not just Christians. But the amount of persecution globally is worse among Christians. The UN knows it. The UN even publishes it. Kato Institute publishes it. Sometimes it's inconvenient to talk about that if you have a narrative

that you want to push one way or the other. But it's true. And you have this church, Latter-day States. These people with their kids going to worship, mind their own business, and a guy with a truck comes through, and people say, well, it's all about gun control. He had these large apparent jerry cans with a gasoline that set it on fire. So what prevents him from driving through and setting it on fire? Does everybody escape alive? Well, maybe, but you've still got, it's not about the weapon. It's about the people. It's about the people that are there. And Christians are the

number one persecuted, but there's a lot of angry things, and I want to know, I want to know this guy's background. I want to know how we could have noticed it, how we could have stopped it, how we could have stepped in. I want to know that. Yeah, look at him, Tom. He's there, look at his wife. He has a Trump. Okay, is that a Trump shirt? Zoom in? Yeah, it looks like a Trump 2020 shirt. Okay, so he, he was a supporter of Trump 2020 pens outside of, so he had a sign of Trump and Pence outside of his House and his Sanford home. A 2019 social media photo post shows that Sanford and worn a Trump t-shirt slogan

make liberals cry again. Unbelievable. No verified records of hunting on party registration of Republicans. So that's not been reported yet. Investigators have explicitly said that speculation about his motives of political leanings is just that speculation and that they won't draw conclusions.

But there's nothing that's, let me, is this him still, Rob, or is this someone else? This is what the internet's saying is him. Okay, can we read some of these things? politically active democratic socialist progressive and proud union member so is that a post of his well that's his description on his ex thomas j sanford july 2020 is that the real name of the guy do it's thomas j sanford yeah are we sure this is the right um you know uh because thomas jacob sanford is his name okay go back to the other one i don't see the picture on his face so i don't know

if that's going to be him. So keep going to the next one. Graham Lama General Zerushu, Iraq, you have a stomp, Trump. Stop Trump sign at his house. Okay, stop Trump sign at his house. So not a pro-Trump sign at his house. Keep going.

Okay. So it was a Trump-hating liberal. They tried to scrub his Facebook, but they weren't quite fast enough. So never support a president who IQ is 30 points, Lord and yours, and failing. And he was talking about Trump okay so so then what is that other picture that people are posting okay what is that one

the one right there with the Trump shirt on is that the same guy zoom in a little bit more on the shirt robs if you can trump that posted this liberals liberals cry again 2000 see that doesn't add up so wait in 2020 he joined and he's saying he's a progressive democratic yeah maybe that's not maybe that's not a shirt honoring Trump I love go back to the there's something in here look at his if this is the right account. There is a pin tweet, Pat. Take a look at this pin tweet, Rob, because you go to that. You just added a minute ago. Yeah. If this is correct, on 2021, a single $1,400 payment when the unemployment system owes me over $10,000 to show no remorse for cheating me. I'm underwhelmed. So he appears to be upset if this is the correct account. We all

got to be very careful with this. If the news media is publishing, this is the correct account from O'Claire, Wisconsin, okay. But it appears that there's some anger. He's wearing a Trump shirt says 2020, and there sure appears to be some, like, anger at the system. You see that, Pat? Like, I've been cheated or something's going on. Democrat, Socialist, Progressive Union member.

So there are... He seems to have donated to Blue numerous times. So he donated to Blue Political Action Pack, $192, $1,2,3, 4, 5. six, seven. Rob, what was the actual handle? Thomas, what? About 12 times he donated to the Democratic Party if that's the same person we're talking about.

Let me see his handle, I think it was like Thomas J. J. J. The count that you had up there. Thomas J. Sanford won. Thomas J. Sanford won. Thomas J. Sanford one. If that account is still off. Let's see if they have it. And we say allegedly, but this is what the police has indicated. Well, I saw that him without a beard.

Like it might be him, people, people, without a beard. maybe. No, it doesn't look nothing like the guy. Yeah, see, there we go. This guy works for PTI professional. Yeah, and he has a Ukraine flag. No. This isn't the same guy. So here's a part. We don't yet know where he's at, okay? Sanford, Rob. You put a D in there. There wasn't a D. It's a sand. You put Sanford. Yeah. Sanford. Just to clarify, yeah, you're right. This guy's from Wisconsin. That's not the same guy. It's not the same guy. No, it's not. So again, more details will come about this. There's another story talking about that, you know, it could be a former member of the church that had a bad experience that was going after that.

I don't know if the guy was LDS or not, but there's a lot of different stories that come up with this. Adam, your thoughts on this. Yeah, well, I can't believe I need to say this, but political violence or religious violence has no place in America. We just saw what happened with Charlie Kirk. We've seen multiple situations where places of worship, whether it's this LDS church in Michigan, whether there's the Catholic Church in Minnesota, there's the synagogue in Pittsburgh, whether there's a Sikh temple.

This seems to be a common theme here. It is incumbent on our cities, on our police forces, to protect the most vulnerable. The places of worship and schools and social gatherings should be just that. They should not be crime scenes. And it's becoming all too common that it's a crime scene at a church,

crime scene at a school, at a at a public gathering and at what point is say enough's enough so churches uh you know rob i sent you some data you know people america has becoming more secular and secular and secular over the last few decades and there seems to be at least a pause in uh people becoming less religious less christian even here's a here's a i don't know if you have this stat right here but since the shooting of Charlie Kirk, more people have gone back to church. I think we need more of that in America today.

The biggest challenge that churches have, whether it's churches, whether it's synagogues, whether it's mosques, we can keep that separate, is at one point you want to get people to come in, but how do you keep the bad people out? At this particular church, Latter-day Saints, I guess LDS is known for saying,

visitors welcome. They want people to come in and experience church. That's every church, though. That's my point. but they want people to come in and experience this. But how do you keep people like this out? That's the, okay, that's such a heavy question that you have. It's not, you're not going to be able to do it

because what do churches say? Anybody's welcome. The most broken people are welcome because they come and they get on their knees and they give their life to Christ and you can be forgiven. That's the part that some other religions and denominations have a hard time with Christianity where they say, we've had this conversation before you mean to tell me I can go do X-Y-Z and I can come and accept Jesus Christ

my Lord and Savior and if you truly believe it and if it's coming from your heart that's what makes this you know as unique of a you know faith that it is you know when it becomes you want those folks to come but to me this

this is I want to know more I can't stand hearing stories like this because the last place people need to be worried when they go to is the church that's where you need to to go and sit down, pray, go through whatever phases you're going through. I mean, listen, the weekend when the Charlie Kirk assassination happened, that was like the last weekend, folks. If you ran to church, that was not the weekend to be asking for money and to come out

and say, hey, we have a $28 million building project. Some people did that, believe it or not. That's like the wrong weekend to do it. But, you know, it's tragic, it's devastating, it's annoying. By the way, I don't care who he supported. He needs to be held accountable. Somebody posted or something on Twitter. I bet they'll never bring this up. You're talking to the wrong group. We're like, we're not those guys that are not going to bring it up and not cover it. Whether he was or he wasn't

for a man to do something like this, you have issues, but I want to know more. I want to know every single thing about this guy's records, what church he went to, what happened with his family, what happened a week before, what happened two weeks before, and God willing, they'll find it. But

a terrible, terrible story. Let me just weigh in. So I think church churches need to, and schools, for that matter, need to do a better job of playing defense. You know, my point was, you want people to come in, but at what point, at what price, this past week it was the Jewish New Year, which is called Rosh Hashanah. And if you were going to go to Temple, oh, there's no way that a shooter is getting in there. Because a temple at this point has become a full-on SWAT-driven security establishment. Good, good.

Because the attacks on Jews that are happening. So my Christian friends need to take notice. You know, we talk about tolerance and don't take my kindness as weakness. They're coming after you. Whether that's a certain type of people, whether that are atheists, whether that are anarchists, and Jewish people, for that matter, have learned the hard way. And my hope and prayer is that churches realize is, wow, guys, like, have you not noticed what's going on at churches now, the shootings, this thing that happened in Michigan, and, you know,

protect yourself. In America, we have this sort of, like, toggling. You're right about that. You're right about that. I mean, this last vault conference, we spent three times as much last vault for security. I don't know how many metal detectors we had. I mean, I was late because I was running through.

Metal detectors. It was taken long time to get people to come in purely because of trying to get everybody to make sure that place was safe. So nobody had to be worried about. So yeah, but bigger budget of that hazard. You didn't have to worry about this 10 years ago, five years ago. This was like the last thing on our minds, but you have to do it today. And Pat, I have to be armed.

You think I want to be armed at. my church I have to because you know what I'm taking it I'm taking the responsibility if God forbid something happens guess what I'm running towards the fire I was at a I was at a soccer tournament this weekend and I was I was I was armed the entire time you have to be you have to be ready and but thank God the way they set up the storm there was cops everywhere good I love the way they did it there was cops everywhere but you have to mean you know what just what they announced last week Florida yeah open carry yeah yeah I'm showing you saw that image so it

dude on the back of the bike in Florida. Yeah, it's open carry. Oh, sir? No, I said, I said open. Open carry. Open carry. So anyways. Do you remember, Pat, we had a conversation a couple years ago with Zubi and it was a

conversation of what's a better city, Riyadh in Saudi Arabia or New York City. And I'm like, New York City, obviously, dude. And he's like, not so fast, buddy. Have you ever been to Saudi? Which prompted a conversation between the difference between America and certain other places in the world between freedom and safety. in America we value our freedom right another great

Patrick Patrick Henry said give me give me liberty or give me death that's what we value but what's the price of freedom you have stuff like this where you have other cities where there's zero religious or I'm sorry freedoms in a lot of the Middle Eastern countries

UAE or Saudi there's no freedoms but they're safe you hear stories like you could leave your wallet out there nobody's going to steal it so there's this sort of like balance it's like a seesaw between freedom and safety I'd much rather have the freedom that we have in America. But in America, we need protection as well.

But everything is based on what you had to escape. So what we had to escape caused the way the founding fathers created America was to allow you to have guns to say, you shouldn't be afraid of us. We want you to also be able to protect yourself. That if the government ever wanted to become tyrannical and come after you, you're fully protected.

It's not, not everybody has a same story of reasoning of how they start their countries. But America was that, and quite frankly, I don't mind it. I actually, you know, support how this place was built. That's what we're here. All right. Let's get to the next door here. Next story I want to get to is there was one story that all of you guys wanted to talk about. Was it Nigeria? Yeah, Nigeria. That's the one. Please right into it. Yeah. So, you know, 7,000 Christians have been killed in Nigeria this year. 7,000. According to Newsweek, the story came out. And you don't hear much about it.

You don't. You hear a lot more about Gaza than you hear about Christians. Christians get killed. Even some Christians don't talk about it enough. They put more focus on to what's going on with Gaza, because it's easier to have a enemy that is disliked than this. However, this is the reality of it, what's going on in Nigeria right now. 7,000 Christians have been killed during the first 220 days of 2025, a civil society watchdog says this is an average of 35 killings, killings a day, according to a recent report published by the Nigeria-based human rights and geo international society for civil liberties and the rule of law. Nigeria has long been at the center of Christian persecution with more Christians killed for their faith in Nigeria than in the rest of.

of the world combined, damn, according to human rights organization Open Doors, which monitors the persecution of Christians around the globe, the violence has displaced at least 12 million Christians since 09, 16 years, according to inner society. That year marked the start of Boko Haram's insurgency to establish a caliphate in Nigeria and the broader Sahel in the 16 years since, inter-society-society-nine thousand civilians have been killed, 125,000 of whom were Christians, and 60,000 were liberal Muslims. The inter-society-7 Christians were killed in Nigeria between January 1st and August 10th, and that 7,800 were abducted in the same period.

The report identified Benu State and Nigeria Middle Belt as among the hardest hit with at least 1,100 deaths, including the Yalawata massacre in June, with 280 Christians were killed. Rob, if you have a clip to play, is this the clip of the gentleman explaining what's going on? Oh, this is the one that's running out. Okay, go for it. Sefter church service, I believe, by the way.

Every gunshot you're hearing is hitting a person. My people, my family members, they died in this house. 11 and some die in the other store 8 some died here my whole family members

that died yesterday day before yesterday on that very day there were 20 that is my own family members I'm not talking about any other thing that is my own family members this is my store

those shops are my stores those place are being born those places this place is being born here and up my house is up there that place also is born and the store where i pack my goose i store my goose everywhere i was born my clout they burn everything they burn our food all my family members what we came out with is our clout what we wear and i standing here this is what i came out with and this is the only thing that i have there's no anything with me viny thoughts

going back to exactly what I was talking about, and it's like, I'm going to be honest. I had no idea, and why is that? Because the mainstream media doesn't give a damn, and they're not reporting this. It took Bill Maher. It took Bill Maher, and you guys know me, I'm one of the most critical about this freaking guy, TDS,

he goes back, he goes left, he goes right. It took him having Nancy Mason to bring this up, Bob. You want to play this clip? Yeah, play this clip, please. Nigeria, I mean, the fact that this issue has not gotten on people's radar. Right, no one's talking about. It's pretty amazing. If you don't know what's going on in Nigeria, your media sources suck. You are in a bubble.

And again, I'm not a Christian, but they are systematically killing the Christians in Nigeria. They've killed over 100,000 since 2009. They've burned 18,000 churches. This is so much more, these are their Islamists, Boko Haram. This is so much more of a genocide attempt than what is going on in Gaza. They are literally attempting to wipe out

the Christian population of an entire country. Where are the kids protesting this? It's a great point Because no one will talk about So thank you Absolutely And so why? Is it because And he said this

Adam I know you said this the point I got to give you credit what credits do No Jews, no news Okay This is a calling for all the Christian people Like where are you at That's and you made You said I have to highlight it

41 in 2020 4100 Christians killed That's 82% of all faith-based Related killings worldwide guys 84% of every Christian dying is right there okay and meanwhile guess what the U.S. lawmakers are pushing they're pushing they haven't declared anything labeling Nigeria a country of particular concern all right what particular concern the concern is there and this is the guys and the most powerful part and I have to hold back my freaking emotions with all this persecution pat 94% of Nigerian Catholics are still still going to mass every week. Their faith is freaking unshaken, even in the face to death. Rob, can you play this clip? Look at this. Look at that. They're refusing. Holy moly. God bless them. Look at this.

We praise your name. Wow. You can stop it, Rob. So that's what faith over fear. Look at that, Tom. Faith. They still, and they're not stopping. They're not stopping, and I absolutely love... Pat, they can't. What are they going to do? Bowed down and say, no, no, no, no, no.

You got to stick up for your faith, and that's it. Wow. Tom. This is heavy stuff. And I'm glad to finally see it coming out in media so that people can see the truth of what's going on in this world. This is why the world needs a savior. And what you have here is you have people understanding

that a church is not a building. A church is a gathering of a gathering of, believers who are supporting each other, holding hands in the remnant of a building there, not knowing if their oppressors are going to return to finish the job on them. That is faith in action. That is faith over fear. And what you also have is, although Nigeria is rich in resources, they've got a lot of natural resources.

The way to get people to help you in this world is to have oil, to have gold, or have rich minerals and then the west that needs those is more likely to give you aid and come help. That's not a criticism. That's a fact. And the thing that inspires me is that these people are living and trying to do it. What further inspires me is the churches and organizations around the world that are continuing to send missionaries and relief supplies into these areas. Darfur has been going on for 20 years now. Darfur, yeah. Darfur? 20 years. And so to understand the power of the faith is to see it right there and to say, what could make someone there simply come together and pray?

Not pick up arms, not going a retaliation mission, but to come together and pray and encouragement. That's what this is all about. The number one persecuted group on earth is Christians. You can spin it any way you want, but you'd be wrong. This is what's happening, and they're returning prayer and peace in the faith. of persecution, and you've got governments. In this case, it happens to be a Sunni side of the Islamic tradition that is in control of the government that is systematically trying to wipe everybody else out, specifically the Christians. And the reason the Christians are dangerous,

if you ask, they will tell you, is because they're fearless and they keep talking about Christ and they keep attempting to bring the good news of Jesus to other people, which causes people to convert. It's not political. It's not. Are you scared about carrying a Republican or a Democrat voter ID? No, I'll just care independent. So if anybody steals my wallet, they won't pick on me. No, these are people that are bringing the good news of Jesus Christ, and these people are unafraid. And that is what the other side is fears. It's the power of the Holy Spirit and people converting. So what do they do? They think that by burning the churches and the killing the people that they're doing it, this is horrifying, but they are liberating, but they are also,

they are also inspiring people to be missionaries, to reach out and do it. And I just wish that the attitude of the media wouldn't be the right people are dying. Yeah, Adam. Well, I don't know how you guys haven't noticed this, but this is something that's been going on for years, and years and years and years and years and the media just doesn't cover it but it doesn't take an investigative journalism to realize that the following you know they famously say not all Muslims are terrorists but all terrorists just happen to be Islamists and I would like to separate what it is between it being an Islamist or jihadist between a normal peace-loving Muslim like let's get real here but all these groups have something in common whether it's ISIS al-Qaeda Taliban the Boko

Haram that's just murdering Christians in Nigeria, whether it's the Islamic jihad, whether it's the Houthis in Yemen, they're all jihadists. So which makes me wonder, Hamas is literally one of these groups. This is their function. They want to kill people who are not like them. The only difference is all these other groups are focusing on Christians. Hamas just happens to be focusing on Jews. But they famously say, first they come for the Saturday people, but then guess what? then they come for the Sunday people these people do not want to coexist what don't you get guys

what don't you get I mean you know you might have your criticism what's going on in Gaza but Jews or Israelis because not all Israelis are Jewish have a very deep understanding of it's kill or be killed unfortunately you think you're

you're going to negotiate with Boko Haram you think you're going to reason with these people that are literally mowing people down there leaving church they have a higher calling from Allah to commit jihad or practice jihad and there's nothing stopping them you know pat you always talk about choose your enemies wisely you know and you give credit to your enemies you give them credit because they're very clear in what they want they want to take you out in business or they want to take you out in life and it's very clear what's happening

you said no jews no news correct correct why are their protests just for Gaza. I mean, show me a protest for what's going on in Nigeria. Christians getting mowed down, nothing. Show me a protest for what's going on in Sudan, millions of people. Show me a protest of what's going on in Ukraine at this point. Nothing. So the hypocrisy that comes from, well, it's a genocide in Gaza. There's other countries in the world where Christians are being persecuted, not just persecuted, killed, beheaded. You see what's going on in Syria. That's literally, they're trying to do a Intentional murdering. You see what happened with the Druze and the Christians in Syria.

But, you know, I always have fun when I see people doing the free Palestine. Okay, cool. I respect that. And I said, you see these interviews. Why are you doing this? We're anti-war. We're anti-war. Great.

Name me one other protest you've ever been to. Name me one other. No, this is the only thing I've ever done. So that's the hypocrisy that they've never gone to any other anti-war protests. as other than what's going in Gaza. I tell you what, though, man, let me tell you guys, if there's anything, like I had a very intense conversation with one of my kids last night,

very intense conversation with one of my kids last night. You have to be very careful, man, to not fall for the mob. And just because somebody is so convincing in their delivery of their message, you cannot be, and you may sit there and you may be like, well, he seems like he's this,

seems like he's that he seems like he's this and he's like yeah oh my god that's what they're doing it's oh my god i'm feeling it and you're like hey pump the brakes bro this this is how you all of a sudden get recruited to mob be very very careful of how you get manipulated and brainwashed into certain things okay um you have to be they do it to kids they do to adults they happens it doesn't matter if you're 70 years old 80 years old 22 years old 42 years old 42 years old or 13 years old, they're going to come after you to try to brainwash you. And almost, you know what percentage falls for it? You know what percentage falls for it?

What percentage of people think fall for brainwashing? For the mob? What percentage? I'm going to give you a number. I bet you're not going to get a right. What do you think the number is? 80 to 90. What percentage falls for it?

I'm going to tell you number. Falls for the brain washing? 90. Getting a hold of your brain. 90%. and you're like you're like supporting something that's absolutely ridiculous ridiculous what percentage falls for a time i go on 66 what are you going to say 40% 50% 100% all of us do all of us do anybody who's sitting you're sitting you acting like oh that would never happen

to me you're part of it as well no one walks on water i'm telling you for myself i have to watch for I'm better off thinking all of us are, what's the word, or potential victims to fall in for the mob. Everybody, good, bad, horrible people, it doesn't matter. The most noble person can fall for the flipping mob. This is not about like, I have more education. It can't happen to me. The most educated people have been bought into the mob.

The ones with the fanciest degree that are part of this community are recruited into the mob, buy the mob. Go to universities. Where do you think most of these dumb protests are happening? Where? And are you asking basic questions they don't have an answer for? This guy here, I don't have a clue who this guy is, but I've watched more clips of this guy in the last four days

than anybody else in the world. He knows how to sing songs in 54 languages. The guy's incredible. Itai Benda. I don't know who he is. When I tell you, Vinny, I watch 40-50 videos. I watch it with Tico, Dylan, and San Francisco. Sena and my wife, Jen, we're on the way to the tournament this weekend.

So he doesn't tell you where he's from first. Okay. He first asks you where you're from. Then he sings a song for you. Then at the end he tells you where you're from, and then they get mad because he's from Israel. So watch this here. Go ahead, Rob. Play this clip.

I live in Germany, but I'm from Turkey. Nice. Can I sing a song for you? Like what was a song? Like, Israeli, pro-Israel song or something like that. Let me sing a song for you. Let me sing a song for you at first. Maybe a small one.

Okay. Love me like you do. Love me, love me. Okay, there we go. So he's from Turkey, right? Now watch it. Incredible. I look on the guy so he's from Turkey.

This is his way of bringing people together. Now watch what happens. I don't speak Turkish, bro. What the f***? You speak even better Turkish than me? No, I don't speak Turkish. Where are you from? Are you from Iran or stuff like that?

I'm from Israel. There is no Israel. You can Google it. It's on Google. No, it's not. It's all right. For people who don't believe in God. Our kadesh.

There is Israel. What's in there if not Israel? What's in there if not Israel? There is only Palestine. Can I ask you a question? Yeah, for sure. How many times Israel is mentioned in the Quran? I think only seven times.

No, no, 43 times. We know that Israel and Israel is the same piece of shit. And how many times Palestine is not only one time? Ah. So... We don't have countries in Islam. What is Israel meaning for Islam? Means the people of Israel?

The Jewish, yes. The Christians too. The Christians living too there, but they are now gone because the Israel people don't like them. Arkadashimya, you're just seeing a lot of lies because to me, I have many Arab and Christian friends lives in Israel. No, you don't have. I grow up with Arab friends, many, many, I grow up with them. They are blind. Yeah, they don't see what you are for a person. You go to Israel, look how many Arabs live the best life, the best life. No, no one will go there back because, inshanna, with Iran, broke this country.

I hope that every Muslim country break this building in one. Nah, they try so, they try so many times, so many times, they cannot. There is no Jewish people anymore. They're only Qafar people and rich bitches. Uh-huh. You are jealous. This is the point. You're jealous. You're jealous. You are jealous. I am. You are jealous, yeah. I'm my.

You are jealous, yeah. You are jealous, yeah. Of course. So say I'm jealous. I say, no, three times. You didn't understand that person. So if I'm jealous about, if I'm jealous about you, I don't need to hate you. But you hate me because you're jealous.

I only hate people who think that it's normal to be killing little kids in Jewish piece of shit. I'm not. The problem is jealousy and stupidity together. Jealous and stupidity together. You are right. Yes, if you open your mind, you see the truth. Truth? Shout out.

Okay. It all started with time. I'm a song. By the way, this guy does this. Rob, can you go back to his account, please? Go back to his account. First of all, I'm going to give a shout out to this guy. I don't have a clue who you are, Etai.

Go a little bit lower. I don't have a clue who you are. Okay? I've never met this guy. I've never talked to this guy. Go lower. He does one for an Armenian girl. Where is it?

He does two Persian songs. But right there, Rob, just play that one for the first 45 seconds. I just want you to hear how he sings. Watch this. What's up? How are you? I like your room. You like my room?

I like it to. Yes. I actually like it too. Just go ahead. I'm ready. Okay. I'm sat. Okay.

Where are you from region? Like, do you speak on English? Look at her reaction. I'm from Armenia. Armenia. Oh. Yes. Oh, this guy's amazing.

Oh, this guy's amazing. She's getting emotional. It's sad. You can pause it right there. Wow. Okay, so you know what I love about this guy? He takes, how long do you think it takes to learn 54 languages of a song to do? Ten years?

Maybe more? I don't know. Every day. I don't know how you're breaking. By the way, he did Portuguese to a Brazilian girl. Spain. He did to Siberia. He did one for Romania guys.

He couldn't believe it. The reaction from people are like, are you sure you're not Romanians? No, I'm not. I'm from just because he wants to find a way to bring people together. See, we need to recognize people like this more to see what they're doing. This is who needs to get a billion views. This guy needs to go viral for billions of people to see that at the end. end of the day we're human beings let's find a way to work together let's find a way to unify so

again don't know who you are respect the hell out of you for doing what you're doing i can watch this guy all day and for some of you guys that are watching this and you see the story with nigeria and you wonder you know you know one of the the biggest shirt for the year that we've launched that sold thousands overnight one week it's faith over fear i absolutely love the fact that Vinny's shirt, faith over fear, has done the way that it has because it tells me

there's thousands of people bold enough that are willing to wear something like this to work to the gym to everywhere they go to say this is what I'm all about. This is the message that I think we need more

in America for some of you guys that are watching this. Ladies, it was good to see how many ladies ordered this shirts. Yeah, ladies was on fire this weekend,

which is great to see. But anyways. Can I give you a fun fact? Yeah, go ahead. So this guy eat time. You're going to say you partied with that guy nine years ago. No, but I've seen him before.

I've seen his... It's a... I want an Assyrian song if he doesn't. You know what? I'm with you. A Syrian song. I'm going to reach out to you and I want you to sing an assyrian song for my friend. He will do.

Patrick Bet David. The reason that I want to emphasize the last name, Patrick Bet David, because Itai Benda, his last name is not Benda. It's Ben David. Itai Ben David. So Ben means the son of David. Bet, I think, is the house. House of David. So what's so amazing about this guy,

I think he's born in Jerusalem. I think he lives in L.A. now. I could be mistaken. But you said this, Pat. He believes in peace through music. We have way more in common than we have that divides us. And there's an example of like,

guy, I'm going to sing for you. I want to be amazing. I want to go and listen to that Armenian song one more time. Let's do it. I love it. I don't want you play right now. Go play right now.

I'm just saying like when this ends, you have to. I'm telling you, Vinny, I'm going to send you his account. Rob, can we put his account below for people to go follow. can you guys just do me if you follow him and tell him a serious and if you like what he's doing if you like what he's doing send him some love and a DM let him know he got a bunch of love today and he better live in a Syrian song freaking amazing voice good for you look at his name right there

itai ben davy how do I know what are the chance look at the bed davids and the ben dave doing our things whether it's an N or T it's a good last thing I agree thank you for doing what you do my friend all right let's go to next door here next door I want to get to is the U.S. birth rates plummet to an all-time law as housing prices continue to rise. Okay. Adam, I'm going to come to you with this one since this is the story you wanted to talk about. Let me get to it, folks. What pages it on?

Noinzen. Okay. Newsdaa. What number? Newzda is 19. Oh, okay. You want me to give you another language? Das's an in.

Okay. Now you're just showing off, baby. No, no, I'm going to stop with it. I can't sing in. 54 language. Mahletta. How about that? Mahletta is better, yes.

The U.S. birth rate plunge to an all-time low in 2024 after, on a downwork trajectory, roughly 20 years with soaring housing costs cited as major contributing factor earlier this summer. U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention released an updated birth rate for this year, revealing that the nation's national fertility rate to less than 1.6. I think the exact number is 1.59, to be exact. Kids per women, down from 2.1, just. 19 years ago. Wow. Which, that's the replacement rate, by the way.

The country needs to sustain its population. The last two decades saw women increasingly delaying having children or choosing to not have them at all. There are many factors fuel in this trend, including personnel and culture, and one of them is rising housing cause. Data analyzed by Realtor.com Economist showed that 2006 to 2006, the financial burden of purchasing a home

has grown dramatically. In 2006, the median price of a single family home was $22,000. which is now $343,000 in $244 when adjusted for inflation. But by comparison, the median sale in 2024 was $410,000, which is $66,000 more than what it was in 26. Over time, the 18-year period, the U.S. total fertility rate dropped from 2.1 to 1.6, Adam.

Well, to me, these are two totally separate stories that they tried to like hodgepodge together to give some reasons as to why birth rates are plummeting. Yeah, does the housing market have something to do with it a little bit? But not really. So intersexual dynamics is really the reason here. Housing aside, listen, you could rent the place, you could buy a place. That's not going to stop you from having kids.

The biggest problem is what we discussed last week. You have young men in America that want nothing more than to settle down, have a family, have a wife, have kids. This is something that men have notoriously been known to do all throughout history. So that's sort of like the staple in this. The variable in this is the mindset of what women are doing these days. Modern feminism movement has ruined a lot of women. And they'd rather focus on their careers than family. And all you have to simply do is this is if you're a woman.

This is my best advice for young women. If you're 22, you're 24, you're 18, you're 28, go talk to a 50-year-old woman that never got married, never had kids, but wanted to. You'll see nothing but regret in their eyes, and they'll mask it with. things like you know i was focused on my career this one guy i dated you you know these are all just excuses and there's nothing that i would like to see more that young men and young women actually come together and find some common ground here so it was what number one on the list for young men pat to settle down have a family right those who voted for trump and it was for liberal women it was

what number on the list 12 so you have young men i wouldn't even say they're conservative they're just normal sensible common sense guys that want to a chick and they're fighting the struggle of modern feminism and i see it all the time you meet a young woman she's amazing you check out and then you click on her link in bio and it goes to only fans and it happens way more than you think and the most gorgeous women out there that used to be housewives or wonderful women or churchgoing women are now only fans girls and this is a continual perpetuating problem and then young men are faced with the decision of wow i met this girl am i really going to lower my standards for this beautiful woman who does only fans.

And they're going to say, I don't know about that. Is this really the type of girl I'm going to bring home for mom? And women, I understand. Make your money. Have your career. But it is going to come at a price. And I hope that the price is worth it. Please talk to older women and see what they think.

That's my advice for young women. I 100% agree with Adam. And I'm going to add this to it. And thank you very much for that, Adam. You're absolutely right. And I'm going to add to it to that liberalism. I'll take it to the bank. Yeah.

liberalism and progressive policy to add on to what Adam's talking about. The only progress that progressive liberalism has done is made progress breaking the family, made progress trying to teach the tenets of family break in the schools, being able to push liberalism. That's progressive. That's where they're making progress. Is in infiltrating the minds of young men and young boys and girls that grow up to have exactly the dynamic that Adam.

talking about a guy that is looking to get married and looking around for who and then finding out but the mindset of a lot of women not all of them out there is all about and it's it's devastating i don't understand what writer went to a whiteboard to put these two things together and i agree with adam at the beginning they just slam these two things together the hodgepodge and made a story um but uh this is this is deeper maybe maybe an expense of House is part of it. But at the end of it, you've got progressive policy, has destroyed marriage, and has

infiltrated the minds of kids, which is why conservative people want this stuff not taught in schools, so that kids can grow up. And when you take a look at replacement rate, take a look at what happens downstream. You destroy the family, your taxes long term, go up, and you destroy the

fabric of that country. Yeah, I agree. Can you show that or no? Rob, can we show that clip? Is that part of a special as you can't show it? I don't know if you can do that. he's on stage. It might be a special. Okay, then don't show. But what's he saying right there, Rob? I don't know. Are we allowed to play this, clear? I don't know. No, no, no.

Okay. Well, let me just summarize this because Andrew Schultz did an amazing job. I think a year about his special. And he goes, ladies, how are we all doing out there? And he says, you know, I see these protests that are going on out there. And I'm trying to find common ground. And the ladies that are like, you know, we deserve the right to work. He's like, I agree. Go for it. You know, and they're basically saying, you know, we deserve to have sex with anybody you want and he's like okay have fun with it you know we deserve to free the nipple go for it and they're basically he's just sort of encompassing uh feminist ideology and he goes listen are you feminists or f boys because you know f boys because this is how men think

work make money hot chicks blah blah this is how women think at this point and he sort of exposes their progressive mindset is that they're basically trying to be the people they hate which is F-boys and Andrew Schultz encompasses the greatly but modern feminism is not helping the good news is we are starting to see women and content creators say I'm just a lovely

housewife and I'm here to help my husband and have kids and it's an amazing opportunity. Go to church whatever you're doing right now if you're one of these guys go to church this Sunday find a local church and I told this to a guy this weekend who was asking he says what do I'm going through a really tough time

in my life I said go to church but don't get discouraged if the first church sucks. I went through 26 until I found one. So don't let it be like, oh my God, I went there and they talked about raising money. Oh, my God, I went there and they were talking about a very technical story. Oh, my God, I went there. I don't really connect with the pastor.

You're right. You're not going to connect with all the pastors. But then there's going to come that one moment. And when it does, you're going to feel it. You'll be in church all the way in the back, sitting by yourself, and you're going to have that moment of yours. And you can say, oh, my God, God spoke to me today. you'll fill it when it happens to you but go to church basic step number one can i go to church

can i say one thing i fully agree with you the jewish church it's called the synagogue you can come with us but you know i i've become more i think more practicing since october 7th you told me you know go go go to get closer to god and i've tried to and i and i am and i and i do practicing what i will what i will say is i think more people should take that advice the problem i have is also the hypocrisy the double standards you have no idea how many and specifically women but it's also guys i see them drinking partying doing all sorts of thing in miami on saturday night and they go to church sunday and they ask for forgiveness that's not how it's and i don't know how it works that's well that it doesn't seem like there's alignment no where your words no and your actions are not congruent

if you want to listen your words are yeah i want to get closer to god i want to go to church i want to find a husband, but then you're partying at space until 5 a.m. in Miami. No, well, guess what? Everybody out there, go listen to James, the book of James. Just have it play. Do an audio and listen to it, and he names all that stuff. You can't be that practicing, talking about, like, and knowing that you're going to do it. Like, it's not a, it's not cleansing yourself. Like, I can do whatever I want throughout the week and then Sunday I'm back. No, no, because he's watching, bro. You have to be intentional. You know what I mean? Do you have to cut off so many freaking things and it's so hard, bro he's like your mind if you're if you're you know what I mean if your right eyes looking

somewhere cut it out if you're you know I mean if your temptation with your right hand cut it off like and if you're knowingly doing it because once you go all in once you go all in you can't be the fence guy like you and I know because you mentioned that when you were talking about how well if I'm doing all this stuff and I just at the end I say hey I'm sorry I'm going to go to heaven that's not if you don't truly mean it at him and you don't take the steps to try to become a good Christian you know how hard you know how hard this just the stuff that's going on in here and I'm at church and there's a beautiful girl. It's a fight. Your brain is like, dude, don't look. It's a constant, constant battle.

But no, that's not how it works. I'm glad that you talked about that. Because I, by the way, it's not, it's not just exclusive in the Christian community. I have Jewish friends, Orthodox Jewish friends where they're doing the Sabbath and then after Shabbat, they're out partying in the club. I'm like, guys, that's not how it works. Or I'll see a Muslim girl be like, that's haram and she'll do that. And then she's on only fans. So the double standard and the homocracy is like the words that come out of your mouth are different than the action. that you actually do. And alignment, I think, is...

Adam, you make a really good point, but I would ask you a question. If you ran into somebody that was in your lane of life insurance and they were corrupt and they were really bad and you were really disgusted by that, would that keep you from your career doing as well as you've done

in your lane of life insurance? No, it wouldn't. And so I think we have to be careful that we say we don't blame flawed people that keep us from making our spiritual decision because sometimes it ends up that you may not realize it, but it may come across kind of as an excuse argument. Well, there's so much hypocrisy, why should I go to church?

Wait a minute. If you see bad plumbers in town, would you not be a plumber? No, you'd be the best plumber you could be. Some people would call him a plumber. I mean, Adam was growing up as a kid. That's true. Laying pipe. But no, you're right.

I totally get what you're saying. I think the biggest thing with, you know, where Adam is going with what he's saying, I fully agree. Because you think that's like your card. I'm going to go here, then I'm going to go to the club. No, it's contradiction. What I learn in life, like the times I was the most at peace, and if you're solving for peace,

I've never been more at peace in life when my beliefs that I would project to myself, my values and principles, match the way I live. I've never been happier than those to be in a line. The guy asked me a question that says, you know, what's the key to happiness? said alignment. Alignment.

If you truly live the life that you think is the right life to live based on the values and principles you believe in, believe in, what do you worried about? Like, what do you, what weight are you carrying? You're not. You're living true to yourself and the values and principles. So if you say you're a Christian

and you're going by the values and principles, try to live... I actually want to ask you this question on alignment because we've had multiple discussions on air, off air, you know, this whole thing, cut it off. How do you, what would you be your advice? for people to live with alignment. Because essentially...

It's not easy, Adam. That's I'm saying. It's not easy. No, it's not. Look, I just told you a minute ago, who buys into the mob? What did I say? Everybody, 100%.

I'm gonna say 80% as if I'm included like I'm the smart one. I'm not going to get... No, it's very hard to be aligned, Adam. Very, very hard to be aligned. Very.

What's step one? Just slide into my DMs and look at the type of DMs I'm getting. Oh, yeah? The videos I'm getting. Show me, Pat. It's a great hangary. with your last night, buddy.

No, I don't get DM from guys telling me last time was great. But the point I'm trying to tell you is, look, there comes a time in your life where, you know, you can be 45 and some may think you're a man, but you're just an old boy. You're not a man. You're a boy. That boy is still in you. You still haven't gotten rid of that boy. me me me me me it's about me everything revolves around me you know and that that that mindset that you have I don't care how old you are but then when you become a man to me man equals responsibilities

man equals leading man equals keeping your word man equals people relying on you man equals contributing to society man equals carrying the burden of of a handful of people. You have to. That's our job. Last time I'm sitting there, Dylan, is sitting there listening to me. We're talking. I say, you know, what it is to be a leader. Leader carries burden. Yesterday, the Dallas Cowboys played the Green Bay Packers. And I love what Mike said in the interview. And it was 40-40. Mike in the interview says, I went to Jordan Love and I feel bad because he did his part. He put up 40 points of office. We didn't do our part. This was our loss.

And I don't feel good. I don't feel good. We have to come through. Our quarterback did his part. Our quarterback did his part. It was a great thing to say in the interview, but Micah's carrying burden. That's exactly how you want your best defensive player to interview, okay, where he puts the onus on who? On himself. What a thing to say where it's always on the other person? It's always on the other side. There's something very attractive about a man wanting more responsibility. But you want to know what it is about one and more responsibility? You lose 80% of your liberties. You know what I did this weekend? This weekend, I drove 500 miles back and forth to go to soccer tournaments. 500 miles this weekend. Back and forth, back and forth, back and forth.

In the sun, in the heat, outside. People have umbrellas. I didn't know you needed umbrellas for suns. But, you know, everybody's carrying out. I'm like, not even raining. Why do you have an umbrella? Because the sun, I'm like, okay, not a bad idea. but it's a burden.

So what would I have rather I've done this weekend? I'm behind on two books that I want to read. And while we're driving there, I can't even listen to my audiobook because he's reading a book because it's his homework.

So I can't play music and I can't play anything. So I turn off the music and I'm just driving. And the reason why I'm driving is I can listen to music, I can listen to audiobook and I can talk to somebody

that's with me company, good conversation. I can't do any of them. So I'm like, boom. There's a, you know, Musquito. Rock on the windshield. And then you're there, right?

But you know what? It's the greatest burden. Nothing like it. Watching the development of a human being that's relying on you for direction. And he's seen everything that you're doing. There's nothing like it. So you ask the question, that's what I would say to you

when it comes on to that. Anyways, all right, let's get to the next topic here. Next topic, Mayor Adams just dropped out. And he said, I quit. I'm done. I'm out of it. And, you know, again, I'm Tom, I'm going to come to you here in a minute, but he ends his re-election bit for New York City mayor. Does he say anything, Rob?

I guess this is the announcement last night. Okay, go for it. And yet, despite all we've achieved, I cannot continue my re-election campaign. The constant media speculation about my future and the campaign finance board's decision to withhold millions of dollars have undermined my. ability to raise the funds needed for a serious campaign. I hope that over a time, New Yorkers will see this city thrive under our leadership and that policies we put in place should be continued and expanded. I hope you will see that despite the headlines and innuendo, I always put you before me, always. All right. So while that is going up,

on, okay, President Trump tweet something out on truth social, okay? Rob, I don't know if you have that or not. He tweets something on truth social that says the following. It says self-proclaimed New York City Mamdani, who is running for mayor will prove to be one of the best things

to ever happen to our great Republican Party, which I agree with. And I said this at Jubilee. I hope he wins, okay? In a way, purely for the case study. He's going to have problems with Washington like no mayor in the history. of our great once great city once great city remember that he needs money from me as president

in order to fulfill all of his fake communist promises he won't be getting any of it so what's the point of voting for him this ideology has failed always for thousands of years and will fail again and that's guaranteed president dj t by the way new york city you know what you want to may want to look at for those of guys that are supporting this guy look what's going on Portland, the highlights that we were watching earlier. What's going on with the streets? He doesn't think those things are any issue. He's not somebody that's sitting there saying, let's go get more cops.

You've seen what he's supporting the past before. Tom, I know you got some polls here. You want to share with the rest of it because I think the average person, Tom, is asking a following question, and I think you got the answer for. The average person's asking, okay, how big of an impact did this make for Mayor Adams dropping out? That the votes go to Cuomo, and what would happen if Sleevo walks out, okay? with the votes go to Cuom and does Cuomah have a chance to meet him, Amdani? What does Tom Ellsworth say about this? Well, what we say about it is there's a lot of polling going on out there,

and there's a lot of polling that's being paid for by Mandami and by media organizations. You call up the media organizations. Hey, ABC New York calling, we need a poll, Quinniapak. Yep, we'll get right back to you. And a lot of times the polls are flawed, or Quinniapak wants to get business next week and this week. I'm not picking on them, but the way it kind of works is sometimes polls are produced It kind of follow narratives.

And what's happening right now, people are saying, what is the net effect on the election? Is this going to help? And right now, Rasmussen, people that I trust and have contact with, they are looking at it and saying, look, you are looking at maybe you have breakage. Remember when RFK, this will people remember, so maybe they can identify this. everybody said well if rfk drops out and he's off those ballots do those votes go to trump remember that and there was about five to seven for rfk and it was usually four two four votes for trump two votes would go no i liked r fk but i'm really more left yep so that's the breakage here well about 70 percent of this goes to quomo but there is still about 30 percent that are upset with quomo that have a long memory

And so when you shake it out, you have a two-horse race and the Emerson College number here, not that they're the perfect pollster, but their analysis here, their analysis here is me and many other people that are really diving deep into numbers is correct, that it's about Mamdami seven when you take out. If Sliwa and Adams are out, Maldani still wins by seven. still wins by seven, and it's the problem that we showed last time, where you went down all the groups. Remember you were going down last time on Friday? And you're asking, what are you thinking? What are you thinking? What are they thinking? Because there is a breakage for Mamdami. And I think it's, if everybody's gone, it's seven. If Slewa stays there, it's 14. Tom, who's wick? Who's wick there that has Cuomo wins by one?

It's not John Rob go up a little bit Wick Harris X John we might need him though I have no idea how the WIC people calculate this Who is WIC though? Do you know them? Have you heard of them?

No I'm not familiar with them To be honest with you And do you know who Harris X is? I know who Harris is I know who American Pulse research is So who Harris X? So Harris X No relation to Kamala right?

No no no no no What you do is you look at who they vote, who they poll. You look, Honan Group, likely voters, Harris, registered voters. So when polling goes out, they call people on there, are you a registered voter? Yes, I am. I'm registered here. And so then they know, okay, we have a poll of this many registered voters on this side. Other times it's likely voters. Other times they're just dial in and they have a thousand people. You don't know with that. Why is that important? because let's say 44% are registered Democrats in a certain area

and 40% are registered Republicans, everything is independent, you want to have registered voters representing that mix. Otherwise, you're just playing into the bias. It's like asking everybody at the Green Bay Packers game on the morning of the first game of the season, who's going to win the Super Bowl? 44% people believe Packers are going to win the Super Bowl. Of course they do, because you have a bias.

And so that's what's going on with a lot of these. Adam. Well, Eric Adams drops out, so it's now officially a two-person race. And, you know, I don't want to be the bear of bad news. Cuomo, you're not going to win, homie. I wish you had a chance, but the voter base in New York City ain't about it. I mean, this is something that Eric Adams said last week. He said a substantial number of Gen Zee voters will support the socialist NYC,

mayor frontwear, Zarmandani, and a lot of them are foul-mouthed U.S. hating radicals. The radicalization of the left part of America is real gentlemen, and they are nasty and they are reminiscent of Russia 100 plus years ago when the Bolshevik army took down the Tsar.

Here's some of his quotes, right? They're nasty. They're U.S. hating radicals. I've never witnessed a more mean and angry, nasty electoral season. I go, I leave my church or I'll leave lunch. People are shouting F.U. Adams. F.U.

when you do it in front of children, it says to me that you have no regard for civility and that's associated with living in a city that's magnitude. Our children are being radicalized. Our children are starting to hate this city. Not all, but many young people have been radicalized. The radicalization is real. This is just one little anecdote from Mayor Eric Adams.

Don't you think the current mayor of New York City knows what he's talking about in this regard? Do you agree with them? Oh, I fully agree with them. You sat down in front of 20, what I would call, leftist radicals in the Jubilee debate and everyone gave you immense credit

I can't believe Pat had so much patience it was so kind, it was so nice how many of those 20 minds do you think you actually changed? Reading, playing, learning Stellist lenses do more than just correct your child's vision. They slow down the progression of myopia so your child can

And by the way, generally, the reason why I'm where I'm out of my life is because I believe people can change. I, even with you, you were very annoying. You know, when I... I appreciate that, but you were, though. You were obnoxious at one point. It was tough to be around. It's like, oh, my God, if after you're another thing by this guy, about Russia and stuff like this, it was like overly. But you know what?

Deep down aside, I said, I think something's going to happen with this guy. I think he's going to figure something out. By the way, I was two others. You kidding me? Like when I was younger, I'm like, what's this guy going to do with his life? Where's this guy going? When's the guy going to make a decision to do something with his life? And then I had to go through it, right?

So I'm generally optimistic that some people will change because there's one thing you can never stop at him. You know what that is? Life's going to happen, man. And when life happens, and you're by yourself alone on your, what are you going to do when I'm talking life really happens? Yep. I'm not talking about life happens. When life really happens, what was the reason why? why you chose to come and live in Addison.

Because life really happened. Two events simultaneously. Bam! Wake up. And you're like, whoa, what was this all about, right? I think when life really happens, some people wake up and some people double down on the victimhood stuff, I do think a few of those guys will.

But going back to the New York thing you're talking about, with Adam saying that, if you lived in a city where everywhere you go, someone's like, you mother, you piece of shit. Yeah, I. I'd say, you know, you have to be thinking about. Like, you either have to know that's the DNA of that city. Like, you know how they say Philadelphia fans.

If you play for Philly, like Rob, you know this. Like Philadelphia fans are tough crowd. Tough crowd, right? New York, same. Boston, same. Santa Claus. You can go around and say a lot of different things, but those three. L.A. fans are, believe it or not, L.A. fans are not L.A.

It's a very different kind of a fan base. Yeah, they're fake. It's not, you're not wrong. Okay, like Tom is a true Dodger fan. Real, no, real true. It's annoying to be around, but he's a true Dodger fan. You know, like, please don't. By the way, hey, the Yankees needed Toronto to lose one game to have the buy.

Tom's smile on his face. You should see the look on his face. I'm so happy. You can't even hold it in. Look at it in. Look at him. Can't hold it in. Turning red.

So we have a thing. I don't want any text about baseball from Tom ever until the season is over with. And I'm talking playoffs is over with. Wow. I don't want to hear it. Because I know deep down inside, he's like, well, that guy's this, and you don't have colon, you don't have this. And I'm like, listen, let the season end and then let's talk baseball.

We're planning on watching some baseball this weekend, but you know where we're watching it? Tom, Tom. We go to Dodgers, the Yankees game in the league. Forget it. The greatest 15-ning in the history of the Yankees, which, you know, its case studies are going to be written about that 15-nink, right? Movies are going to be.

There was movies made about series. There's been documentaries made about series. Yankees, you know, Boston. But they're going to make a movie and a... You can make a 12-part documentary series about the fifth inning. That's it. And call it the fifth inning. Call it the fifth inning.

Fifth. And it would do well. But anyways, yeah. So I can't imagine that happened in New York being that. You're the hottest most balanced team going into the playoffs. Tom. Tom. And, and, and hats off to Aaron Judge.

That's a real picture. Tom was choking. He did something. You know what that is? Oh, yeah. By the way, in the back, you know, who's celebrating the Dodgers just won. We're in a boot. Him and Sam, him and Sam are celebrating privately with another guy named Greg.

The three are just like teamed up, 25 Yankees guys and three Dodgers. We had to have escort the three Dodgers guys out and say, listen, you guys got to get out of here. A little fun fact. Tom actually pooped in his pants right there. He actually let it go. So that's not true. By the way, by the way. It's true? By the way.

Stop it. Tom went, uh-uh. Aaron Judge is your MVP. And he just does something that no one's done since Mickey Mantle, 50 dingers and a batting title. Haydn, Osman Achka, Tal. But you know what that means? I know what that means where it's like they over compliment to put superstitious be against me. That's Tom Stown.

We know what you just did. I put a hex on him. But let me continue. Can we land this plane? No, I don't want to land it. I want to get away from it. I want to say we were talking about Eric Adams. I want to talk about Ambondi really fast.

Go ahead. So, well, because I want to get into the fact that, and I know that we're saying like, I hope, like, we hope New York is strapping in because it looks like it's going to happen. And you know what, you know, remember we talked about the pool of people that they, look at who they have to choose from, okay? All due respect, Sliwa, I really don't know who he is, the guy at the Bray, but Eric Adams, look at all this stuff, the sanctuary city and everything that he did. And then Cuomo. I mean, look at the, just look at what he did with the old people and the nursing home with COVID.

And it's almost like it's your guys' fault that this Mamdani guy is going to have this rise. And guess what? Two days ago, a story came out. He pledges to spend, are you ready, New Yorkers? a hundred million dollars for free lawyers for illegals for illegals to have lawyers for their immigration for their deportation okay you're welcome it's coming and it's come it's coming quick and did you see the dear boy what but you saw this a hundred million dollars of your taxpayer new york money bunch of trump haters good that is coming you're going to pay for illegal the rest of us because you know

what that's saying i want illegals to stay here i love illegals not not not the actual citizens that crime is up and all this shit that's happening. Sorry for my language but this is what you're going to get. And you know what happens when that happens? The defunded police attitude and all that stuff. He's going to get like what's happening in Deerborn. Did you see the police chief in Deerborn? Did you guys see

this guy? Show me. If you don't mind? Police chief. The police, let me get his actual name. Is this the guy? His name is police chief Issa Shaheen. He's standing in front of a Lebanese flag. He praises his Arab American police force celebrating his jobs and the justice

system and just listen what he says with the Hamdullah. This is in America. Just letting you guys know. Go ahead. When I joined the department, Dearborn's Arab American population was nearly 50% yet less than 3% of our police. It's now a department that reflects and embraces the community it serves

with 45% of our our officers being Arab American. Hamdala. Hamdala. Hamdala. It's coming, guys. Guys, and guess what, Mamdani? Strap in. And guess what? We should do a podcast in Dearborn. Let's do it.

Can you run a poll, right? Can you run a poll? No, no, no, you know what I want the poll to be? If we were to run a podcast in Dearborn, like Detroit, Dearborn, Michigan, would you fly out to come to the podcast if we were to find a hotel? Because I know it would be ruckus. 44% are air. And you know what's happening? Can you just run that poll, folks, I just want to know if we get 2,000 crazy America-loving people,

Patriots in the same place. I want military guys to show up. Vets, Air Force, Harley Davidson. Bring them all, baby, right? And we do a podcast in Dearborn. And we talk about how awesome America is, right? Oh my goodness.

I think I'm curious to know what that poll. I'm sure my wife is excited about this announcement here. I mean, probably we'd have to get crazy security. But I just want you guys to know because the citizens are complaining they're having, moths are doing their call the prayer at like five or, I don't know, six o'clock in the morning, and this is what's happening in Dearborn. New York, are you ready for this?

Go ahead. This is in America. Five o'clock, what time is this? Some lady complained that it was five o'clock at the morning, and they're going to the city, and it's... Yeah, they have a horn they blow, and then there's...

That happens. There's a canter that sinks. Like, listen. A shud-d-down. Dude, I'd be like... Like, what? That's actually my alarm clock I wake up to every day, guys. I don't say the problem. By the way, I was going to say something very weird.

I grew up in Iran. I would hear this all the time. And there are some guys that sing this song with the most incredible voice. It's beautiful. It's beautiful. 5 a.m.? In America? In America.

No. And I'm a guy. I'm a reasonable guy. It's just such a beautiful song if it sang by the right people, but not 5 a.m. Not in America. Not appropriate. Sorry, guys. What's this? What's this, Rob?

This is a video of a former, I believe it's a former Islamist. I got it. Yeah, go for it. When I was an extremist, Islamist, fundamentalist, I would only vote left. Why is that? I saw them as very stupid. I would fear the conservatives because they come with principle. That's not someone they can brainwash. But the left, I know they have no values and no principles to begin with.

I dare you to find one Islamic extremist that votes for Donald Trump. Never do it. They give their vote to the leftist who wants to run around in pride parades. And Islamic extremists are against gays and homosexuals and transgender. But they want the left to go and get busy with that. They want them. Go, go, go speak about the climate. Go, go speak about abortion.

Go kill yourselves. Go do that. She's fighting for abortion rights and all the other My body, my choice? Yes, go do that, go do that. But would she have an abortion? Never. Never.

Never. Weird. Would she kill a Muslim in her stomach? Never. What is the fundamentalist and jihadi agenda for America? The future of America has to be Muslim. Wow. Wow. Would you say, Adam, when they say it, believe them?

Tom, go ahead. When they tell you who they are, believe them. I'll tell you. there is a simple reality. In terms of a caliphate and a whole war of extermination, the liberal dies last. And the first will be the Jews. Second will be the Christians. In some cases, the Christians, they go after them first because they're protecting the Jews.

That's the way it's been. The fundamentalist Christians that protect Jewish. people. I'm not talking about Israel as a nation. I'm talking about Jewish people. And then you get around to, and now for you, wait a minute. I was with you, man. You gave you your freedom. I said, you had the right to free speech. You had the right to say what you wanted. And you said things about Christians and Jews. I maybe thought you were a little extreme or a little crazy, but said that. No, no, you don't understand. It says, you. I says, are you coming with me? No. No. I believe. this, this, this, and no. Well, now you are the infidel. And a liberal needs to understand,

the liberal dies last. Nobody cares about that. You know why, Tom? It's kind of like why some people eat as bad as they do until they have a heart attack. You ever wonder, like, I read a book by John Maxwell, one of his books. It could have been 15 invaluable laws of growth, and he talks about what happened after he had a heart attack, how bad he was eating and how quickly change his diet because she was thinking about his kids, grandkids, all that stuff, right? Most people don't think it's going to happen to them. Most people don't think cancer is going to happen to them. Most people don't think any of that stuff's going to happen to them. Like, no, it's other people. It's never me. It's never me. It's never me. It's never me.

And then it's you. And it's like, oh, shit, I never knew what's going to be me. Well, that's kind of how life works. So I don't think that ever does anything to them, even though you're right, they are going to be last. And they're still going to get them as well. They still won't. That's not going to move them. They won't sit there and be like, because of that, I'm going to change. Nope. Can I add one thing? They have a massive blind spot, Tom. Go ahead. Can you show that police chief again? This is not the angle you think I'm going to take here.

This gentleman right here who's saying that, you know, when he started with the police force to only 3% of the police force in a 50% Muslim community or police, but now it's up to 45%. I'm actually happy he talked about this, because we need more reasonable Muslims who are policing their own people, just like we need Christians,

policing their own people, Jews, policing their own people, Republicans, Democrats, we need more people saying, no, guys, if you love America, appreciate America, be a part of the American melting pot, we're here for it. We need those people, those police officers,

to vet out the radicals. How else are we going to find the radicals in the mosques or the radicals in the churches, the radicals in the temples? Not that there's many of those, but how else are we going to find those people? and we need to bring them back into the fold. Creating enemies within America is very problematic.

So I would encourage all my Muslim friends. You saw the video I did in Detroit, right? At the airport, when they're all massed up. Why was I in Detroit? My grandma's from Detroit. My dad's from Detroit. I have friends in Detroit. I have Jewish friends in Detroit.

I have Muslim friends in Detroit. Huge Chaldean community, which is basically like the Syrian community, huge black community. If you love America and you're here for America, we have a open arms for you. But if you're here actively plotting against America, that's the problem that people have. So when you see these clerics being like,

we need to bring down America and burn down America, that's the people we need to investigate. This is uncalled for. Burning of the flags, exactly. Can a Christian or a Jew run for office in a Muslim country? No, no. Interesting. Weird.

That question alone. Definitely not a Jew. That question alone. Yeah. There is a double standard. You're absolutely right. Can a gay person hold a pride parade in Gaza? Or is it just fashionable to say, you know,

gays for Gaza over here. The answer is chickens for KFC. They'll meet their maker within. That's exactly. You can't get a permit, but if you want to self-organize, you're going to self-extiminate. You bring up the point, Pat. That's exactly what it is, is that they can do whatever they want,

anyone can do whatever they want here in America. but in other countries, that's not how it works. And when they think, you know, it's really funny. There's the queers for Palestine, chickens for KFC. Adam, isn't it crazy how some of our young people think that the rest of the world is really just like us? And I can just go over there and I can do this. But if they went over there, they would have drum solos played on their head. That's true.

The one problem that you're wrong with, Tom, is that you said, isn't it interesting that they think, they don't think? They're just, it's raw emotion. Assume. Yeah. And you know what happens when you assume. A couple other stories. I want to go through. Let me go to this one here. Trump to declassified Melia Earhart's records. Okay, I know, Vinny, you got a lot of you want to talk about this one here. So,

um, President Donald Trump announced Friday on Truth Socialist Ordinance administration to classify and release all government records regarding trailblazing, uh, aviator Melia Earhart, whom mysteriously disappeared during a flight over Pacific Ocean 1937, 1932 Mary Al Hart became the first woman and a second person in history after Charles Lindberg to fly solo and nonstop across the Atlantic Ocean, Just five years later, at the age of 39, she vanished without a trace during an attempt to circumvent, circumnavigate the globe, raising a range of possible explanation as to conspiracy theories. I'm ordered my administration to declassified, release all the government records related to Mel Yerhardt, her final trip, and to everything else about her. President Trump wrote on a post, you know, is this the one, Rob? Yes.

In particular, her fatal flight, she was an aviation pioneer. the first one flies. She disappeared in South Ocean while trying to become the first one fly around the Middlewood, almost three quarters around the world, and she suddenly, without notice, vanished, never to be seen again. Her disappearance almost 90 years ago has captivated millions of more than my administration to the class of it. So, Vinny, why are you so interested in this?

Oh, man, I was up all night. You know why? I was wondering who gives, I'm sorry, with all due respect, who gives a damn about, like, are you serious? Family members, too. Yeah, are they alive? Are any of them alive? The Earnhardt?

The Earnhardt? By the way, unless the files show that she was abducted by aliens or the government has her locked up in a bunker somewhere, at this point, who cares? Okay, this isn't 1937 trivia night. It's 2025, all right? How about this? The Epstein files, all right? The way that the entire case is still ongoing being handled. I know we have some stuff about Elon and Elon's comments and him being implicated.

And then how about this? Charlie Kirk's assassination. That's where real accountability is right now. I don't like this is where I don't like who cares. There's so much happening right now. I think this is one of those shiny objects in the air. Look over here and don't look over here. And we've seen this before. Big announcement, a lot of headlines. And then all the stuff that really impacts power and corruption. That's the stuff that gets buried. Okay. Keep focus on what's happening right now. What affects people right now? Not a mystery from 90 years ago. What? This is just funny that this is what we're talking about. Isn't it true? Because you're like, guys, who cares about the Amelia Earhart story? It's irrelevant. Hey, Vita, you want to talk about today. So, Amelia Earhart, why are we focusing on this?

Why are we giving this attention? Why do we need more oxygen on this story? Adam. Nobody cares about Amelia Earhart. Hey, Vinny, let's talk about this. We're losing out. Adam, the president of the United States says he's been asked by many, many people. I want to know who that.

the hell went up to President Trump? It was probably some, like, a hundred-year-old woman. You fell for it. No, I did not fall for. You fell for it. No, I didn't. We should have never talked about the story. Now, me and Vincent aren't going to be friends today. I'm bringing attention. Because we're fighting about the greatest female aviator of all time. Amir, Airhart,

your lack of care for Amelia. Guess what I'm doing? The Earhart family's disgusted in your eyes. I think everybody wants to know what happened to her, but it's not like a great government conspiracy. It's 90 years. She wasn't delivering the fuse. Where were you on that door? Guess what? When she went missing, where were you? Rob, I sent you another clip on the construction

of Charlie Kirk's assassination site. I came out of the bathroom. I grabbed some lunch. I sat down and they were like... What is this? You don't have to play the music, but this is what I'm more important about. They're doing construction where Charlie was assassinated. They're literally play this, Rob, they're digging

up everything. Everything is doing construction. What are the odds that were one of the biggest assassinations in the history of the country of a political figure? And they're doing construction everywhere on the top. You're basically saying don't focus on Amelia Earhart, focus on this. This is what we, I mean, are we using the American

because I'm going to say something. Adam, Adam, this is, we could have just discussed Charlie Kirk. No, no, because everything is on purpose. The fact that Charlie was assassinated less than two weeks ago and there is so many unanswered questions and then the attitudes of other people,

we weren't even three days after he passed away and people were like, this is what's happening with turning point and this is like, sorry, who gives a damn about all that? who shot Charlie Kirk the official narrative nobody's believing it okay they've been blown smoke up

up our butts for how many days now it's unbelievable the unanswered questions it's unbelievable the Epstein stuff and the president wants us to talk about Amelia Earhart no bro I'm so Adam you're missing the whole point why would the president bring it up

yeah for other people that are like wow here's my question Adam who in their right mind right now is like this. Finally, Amelia. You know what he's saying? Emilio! By the way, we keep saying

Earnhardt. That's the driver family. This is Airhart. We have to get her right. She does not drive. She did not drive. She was a pilot. Adam, go ahead. What were you saying? Were you going to say anything?

You were about to say something. No, no, I was going to say. I think what he's trying to say is this is a way to distract you from other issues that are going on. That's what he's trying to say. Is that what you're trying to say? I'm pointing out that he's trying to distract us. important point. What are you going to do? Solved this. In 1971, my great-grandfather's reading glasses

disappeared when he was three-quarters away of the garage. For sure. Can someone help? Mr. Wick-Wikiki. There are the glasses, right? Because these all have to die with each of, Wikiki, which he was trying to sell for a couple hundred dollars. But, no, I get what you're saying. To me, I'll talk about Bigfoot. No, no, no. When it comes out to the Kirk shooting, like, that's what I care about. Like, what do we talk? I have some very weird speculation. I have to talk to. We're talking after it. Can we talk after? What do you mean? No, you're going to hear it.

Mr. Wickie. Yeah. What do you want to bring it to? No, we're not talking about it. I think Pat and I are quiet, very quietly on the same page. Look at that face. I can't wait to hear about this. Is this Amelia Earhart story here planted? We're going to skip.

We're going to skip and see what happens next. Oh, no, man. We're going to skip and see what happens next. We're going to skip El-Skippo. but it's very annoying to say the least that nothing's adding up with with Kirk's situation nothing it's very annoying

next story Netanyahu faces walk out at UN after Ab boss receives applause okay Rob I think you have the clip if you want to play this clip it's on page fomfen 15 okay that's German go ahead Hey, very good.

The crowd there that was motivated. And he will take the speech. We will listen to it here and we'll have analysis for you on the other side. They're walking out with D.B. hitting the stage. Please order in the hall. Which countries are you? These are all countries? Please order in the hall.

Everybody that's against Beehlenzance. They're walking out. So these could be Muslim countries. While other money managers are holding, Dynamic is hunting. Seeing past the horizon, investing beyond the benchmark. Because your money can't grow if it doesn't move. Learn more at dynamic.ca.cath. Okay, you can pause it right here.

So Netanyahu declared in his address to the United Nations General Assembly Friday that the long-suffering of Iran people will regain their freedom and make Iran great again, predicting that the Middle East will look dramatically different in the years ahead. Netanyahu tend to Tad his remarks to Israel's recent battle for victories over Iran's tear access, arguing that those winds have opened unprecedented possibilities for peace across the region, including with former enemies, once considered beyond reach. Many of those who wage war on Israel today will be gone tomorrow. Brave peacemakers will take their place.

He told world leaders, Israeli leaders, directly addressed Iran, stressing that its citizen would ultimately free themselves from Ayatollah's grip. Nowhere will this be more true than in Iran. The long-suffering Iranian people will regain their front. freedom, they will make Iran great again. Netanyl declared a phrase, echoed a slogan familiar to many in the hall. Netanyl framed Israel's strength to the guarantor of such a future describing how October 7th and its aftermath underscored the Jewish states resolve to fight back against enemies that

once thought Jewish blood would be shed with impunity. Could be shed with impunity. Adam. Well, look, I'm going to share some stats with you here. And look, you can critique what's going on. in Israel. You can critique the war in Gaza, but I'll ask you a serious question, everybody out there. What are the countries with the worst

human rights abuses in the world? What countries do you think are on that list? Have you seen this number Vinny? Don't look at this. Don't look at this. What countries would you say are the top three countries, what it's like, human rights, the UN should condemn this country? First three countries that come to mind. Wait, hold on, you're saying like, first three countries that come to right

human rights abuses. Just I would say somewhere in the Middle East that's going people up a building North Korea or Iraq Okay so But you're going to go So look at these numbers right here Of what's going on

on the UN condemnation So North Korea This is when the UN General Assembly condemns a country You're doing this wrong You're doing this wrong You're doing this wrong North Korea 10

Afghanistan 1 Venezuela 0 Myanmar 9 You go all the way down the list Hamas zero. Russia 29. That's the second highest in the list. China. Zero

condemnations. Cuba, zero. Syria, where they killed a million Syrians. Ten. Iran, 10. Israel? 173. So what does this show you? This stat, this hypocrisy to the highest level. If you add up all the condemnations

that happened at the UN where Benjamin Netanyahu was speaking, the entire world, according to the UN, is not bad as Israel. So when you you want to see that Jews are like, what are you talking about? Israelis, so what are you talking about? This isn't fair. We're being condemned every single country in the world, including North Korea, including

China, including the countries with the worst human rights abuses. They don't equal the small country of Israel. So to say that there's a double standard, it would be... Help me understand what this means. Yeah, I was just going to say... UNGGGNC condemnation, Rob. What does this poll mean? What does this poll mean, Rob?

I'm not sure Adam. sent me this. So this is what is this poll mean top? UNGA, I believe, is UN General Assembly and I'm looking I'm doing the same thing you're a condomation is. What is a condemnation? While you're looking at it by

the UN General Assembly. If you ask me, is it disrespectful to walk out when a world leader is speaking? Yes. U.S. condemnations refer to a formal declaration by the United Nations that disapprove of specific actions or policies of a member state or entity. These declarations primarily

through General Assembly resolutions and Security Council of Decisions signal a collective stance against violations of international law or peace through though General Assembly resolutions are often non-binding recommendations. The UN has issued condemnations for a range of actions, including those related to international conflict,

human rights, abuses, terrorism, and illegal acquisition of territory. Go back to that list again, Rob, of who he has. U.S. was at 11 and Pakistan was at zero. Mm-hmm. Saudi is at zero. Hamaas at zero? Yeah, that doesn't make sense.

Wait, Hamas is at zero. Yeah. Afghanistan is at one. Turkey's at zero. China's at zero. Oh. Yeah. They're all lovely people there.

There's nothing wrong going on in China. Iraq's at zero. Nothing wrong going on in Venezuela. U.S. is more than Iran? Yes. Okay, then this lost credibility, though. This is the U.N., though.

This is why Trump gets up on stage and says, you're supposed to be solving problems, but you're provoking problems and exacerbating problems. This is why Trump's speech at the UN was so important, which I called it the most important speech in our lifetime, respectfully. It's because he sees what's going on in the world, and it doesn't make sense.

So who are the people walking out when Benjamin Netanyahu is speaking? And you can be as critical as you want as Benjamin Netanyahu because half of Israel, it doesn't support the right-wing government in Israel. But you have African strong men. You have literally Middle Eastern Arab Muslim terrorists former al-Qaeda terrorists who are now running Syria walking out you have Latin American communists

so the people who are actually committing the human rights abuses are walking out as Benjamin Netanyahu is on stage and again I can say this again you can be completely critical of Netanyahu and what they're doing in Gaza but the

hypocrisy that the entire world if you add up the entire world condemnation does not equal what's going on in Israel that's the problem, is that it's absolutely absurd on its face. Yeah. Tell me, listen, maybe I'm completely wrong. No, I mean, if that's an accurate list, if that's a real list that they actually have from 2015 to 2025, it's ridiculous.

Because, yes, Israel people are, a lot of us, me included, criticizing what they're doing. But that's 173 to 0-0, China, Qatar, Saudi, Cuba. No, and not our 11. I'm curious to what our 11 is. Now, what I'm, have us at 11 and U.S. at 10? Yeah, come on. Stop it. Stop it. Tom, how do you process this?

Well, there's two parts of the U.N. There's U.N. Security Council and the U.N. General Assembly. The way I process it is on its face, this is ridiculous. And it just shows you how the U.N., you know, self-managed gets nowhere fast. and I look at this and I'm like, I'm going to go look this up. I'm going to look up all 173. That's what I'm going to do. And I'm going to go get smart about this.

Because I know when it comes to the UN Security Council that's different. That is a small group of the most powerful countries. And frequently, you know, Russia won't vote this way. The U.S. won't vote that way. And it's kind of a stalemate, Pat. You know what I mean? It's like, let's university. But when the U.N. Security Council manages the vote in unison, usually,

you're going to go see some action and stuff, but I think this is ridiculous. Israel 173. I want to see what those 173 things are. Yeah. Let's get smarter, as Tom always says. So, yeah, to me, it's just weird when you put a number like this and it's causing others to react to it. Adam, you were going to say, I just want to say, again, I'm not even, I'm just coming from a pure data standpoint. The way that you can tell how bad a regime is or a bad a country is, okay, sure, you're going to wage war, okay, Putin is attacking Ukraine, okay, Israel and Hamas, okay, you know, what was it, India, Pakistan, you're fighting with your neighbors. What was the other, it was Myanmar versus Cambodia. I'm sorry, it was Thailand versus Cambodia. Point is you're attacking other countries. The real test of a regime is how you treat your own people. now what you want to say about

you can say what you want about Benjamin Netanyahu is not there killing Israelis but in Iran in North Korea and Venezuela you're suppressing your own people I mean we've seen what people say in Iran

tell me what the Ayatola and the IRGC does to their own people in Iran Pat I mean you can spend 10 hours on this but how do they treat their own people I'd like to have two more stories They hang them what do they do it's horrible they let the article was written last year about the number of hangings Iran did in one year, and you see the numbers.

Lithium Americans, Lithium Americas share, searched 90% as Trump request stake. This is a story by Forbes. Tom, I'm going to come to you with this one real quick. I'm not coming to anybody else on this one. But Tom, I want to you. Shares of lithium Americas have rallied 97% on Wednesday after the Trump administration said it would seek a stake in Canadian mining firm as it negotiates a multibillion-dollar loan with the Energy Department a deal involving the largest lithium source in the U.S. Lithium

America stock soared 97% to around $6, nearly doubling the firm's market cap from $674 million to $1.32 billion to $1.32 billion. Trump administration has a request and equity stake in Lithium Americas as it renegotiates a $2.2 billion loan with the Energy Department for its Thacker, past mine in Nevada. A White House official told Forbes, Rob, go ahead and play this clip. Shares of lithium America's more than doubled Wednesday morning after Reuters reported that the Trump administration is seeking up to a 10% stake in the miner. It's the latest sign of Washington's intervention into industries it considers critical to national security. Late Tuesday, Reuters reported the proposed stake was part of negotiations over a nearly $2.3 billion loan from the U.S. Department of Energy for the company's Thacker Pass lithium project. Located in Nevada, FACCAR Pass is the largest planned lithium mine in the Western Hemisphere.

Canada-based lithium Americas said on Wednesday it was in discussions with the U.S. Energy Department and General Motors over the loan. GM has a 38% stake in FACCAR Pass. The move underscores President Trump's increasing use of direct government ownership to steer strategic sectors and curb reliance on China, which dominions. refining of many critical minerals. Thacker Pass is seen as a linchpin in building a domestic supply chain, part of Washington's long-standing drive to boost U.S. production of lithium,

a metal used to make batteries for electric vehicles and other electronics. Let's pause right there, Tom. Tom, go for it. This is our president trying to keep a promise and trying to keep working on the critical minerals we need. Where did he start first? Ukraine. He said Zelensky, let's make a deal for minerals in exchange for some relief aid, but we got to get this war stopped, right?

We got to bring this to a stop. Remember that? Then he goes to Greenland, and then Don Jr. and Charlie Kirk, by the way, all went on this big group of people that went to Greenland to talk about Greenland, about minerals. Because he is trying to not just

do it for today. He is actually trying to play a little of the long game. And this, what they're doing with With Biden gave a small government loan to this company. I shouldn't say small. It was real. But they need to refinance it. And so Trump is saying, look, if you're going to get a $2.26 million loan from the government, you know, we got to take maybe a piece in the company, which I don't necessarily agree with.

But he's trying to make it pat like a collateral on the loan. Like you can't just ask the taxpayers to give you $2.6 billion at the collateral. However, I will say this. We need lithium for up to 800,000 EVs a year, and I don't want us to be screwed out of lithium. So I'll tell you what, I'm still working with Greenland on a deal, but now I'm going to help you guys with this loan because we have to support ourselves and not be hogtied by China on precious metals. So this is Trump in the middle of everything else is going on, Pat, still out there trying to do the very thing he was doing on day one. with EVs. And this is before Elon Musk and Doge

went away. Oh, he was only doing that to help Elon? No, he wasn't. General Motors actually also has a stake in this. And this is Trump trying to help. Does it concern you that the government keeps buying out companies and events into companies? I do not like the

I do not like that. Why don't you like it? Because this is in this case, this is collateral and what is the collateral? Dirt and a mine. Okay, we can take it back and then we consult to somebody else. But I don't like direct investment like what he's doing with Intel. I'd rather, Microsoft, I mean, Apple almost died, Microsoft helped. I think you let the market determine just like that. It's different for Trump to say, you know what, I think we should

have a chip program in the U.S. people are trying to build factories, you know, let's help them, let's get them some, you know, maybe we help them get them land and stuff, but you guys need to work together. invidia how nice of you you want to do this with intel i think that's great i wish he would do that i don't like the and give me a piece of the deal in intel to hold that because i think that's bad because i don't think he's going to do anything nefarious with it but if the government owns these pieces future administrations can and i just do not think in a capitalist system freedom to try, freedom to succeed, freedom to fail. And I don't think that should come with unless you get a safety net with the U.S.

government because they own a piece. And then what if somebody in the future is out competing Intel? What if Tico grows up and builds a company that's out competing with Intel? And all of a sudden there's legislation between two companies. Who's the government going to favor? Tico or the company they got 10% of? That's dangerous. We need an impartial government on that day to say, hey, it's a capitalist system, and if you guys want to go to court, sue each other.

That's what our courts are for, but I don't like it. That part I do not like. I do like Trump is trying to find ways to establish mineral independence and get these precious minerals that we need, these rare earth minerals, so that we don't get screwed by China. That part's a good thing. I agree. Fantastic, gang. We are at the end of the podcast. I got back to back to, it's my Monday.
