Starting point is 00:00:02 Did you ever think you would make it? I feel I'm supposed to take sweet bit of thud me. I know this life's meant for me. Adam, what's your point? The future looks bright. My handshake is better than anything I ever size. Right here. You are a one of one?
Starting point is 00:00:19 My son's drive there. I don't think I've ever said this before. All right. So, what an interesting, right? You would think what a weird day today is. Pre-market. Yep. Oil is already out 100.
Starting point is 00:00:38 99-20. You got the market, pre-market. Everything's down about a half a point. You know, it's a weird day. You know it's a weird day when the podcast starts. And the first thing we talk about just yesterday, apparently the government just bought the domain, alien.gov. That's nothing to see here.
Starting point is 00:00:55 But let me, nothing to see here, alien.gov. Yeah. And then we got eight stories, eight top stories that we got to get into today. One is, not Tulsi. We have to talk about Tulsi. We have to talk about Joe Kent. We have to talk about Mark Wayne Mullen. We have to talk about the five NATO nations that said we're not going to be supporting.
Starting point is 00:01:15 Now they are. Britain, Germany, France, this is the serious stuff we're talking about that. Are we going to address the elephant in the room? The elephant in the room. What is that? The mask on your face with the parts and your tape. Let me tell you about the mask on the face. This morning I come, I prep.
Starting point is 00:01:31 Get in the car with Dan. We go to school because today is, They called it the, I thought it was Father's Day today just because of Brooklyn. Brooklyn's like, today is Father's Day. Oh, love. You have to come. So I went and we hung out and I got gifts from her in school. She gave you gifts.
Starting point is 00:01:49 I love. How cool is this with a baby, Brooklyn. A little rascal. And then you know how they give you. You know how they give you these things with stuff they write about that? Let me read it to. You ready, folks? Don't judge me.
Starting point is 00:02:00 And please don't share this with anybody. my dad's superpowers you ready she came up with this but no they ask you these they asked you're already smiling and smirking well first of the first one's going to make you laugh my dad runs faster than a turtle who says that
Starting point is 00:02:21 he's got you beat turtle he says he can lift all the laundry he is stronger than my sister He is really good at running. He makes the best rainbow cakes. I've never made a rainbow cake ever. But listen, maybe.
Starting point is 00:02:40 Vinny, you want to. He is funny when he yawns. Okay, so you know how sometimes we watch movies? I have a tendency of, when we watch movies, Vinny knows I knock out fairly quickly. His favorite food to keep him strong is octopus, chicken, and pasta. Nice. And my dad's favorite thing to do with me is to go out to dinner. Broccoli.
Starting point is 00:02:58 Proverbs 22, 6, train up a child in a way. He should go even when he is old, he will not depart from it. Isn't that amazing? So that's what I did this morning. With your permission, I'm going to take this off. I kind of think you should rock it for the whole show. You know, maybe it's better glasses than the one Mayor Rana Sadi likes, and who knows? We're going to use different ones today.
Starting point is 00:03:17 Anyway, you got your cake. I got my cake. Just pull the cave. Faster than a speeding turtle? Stronger than a laundromat? A lot of bigger compliment can you get than when your daughter says to the world, my dad runs faster than a tour. You know what that makes? Isn't that impressive?
Starting point is 00:03:30 Because she's, don't you love that? Yeah. She obviously saw you the video. You're running up those stairs. Beating this up. We know what? Maybe we should show that. We've never shown it.
Starting point is 00:03:38 We've never shown it. These are the days. These are the days for the innocence of kids and the funny things they say just just warms your heart as a dad. I wish it for you both, honestly. Makes me want to have one. We'll see. We'll see.
Starting point is 00:03:50 Okay. Let's get into it. Welcome back, Pat. Yeah, it's good to be back. We got a bunch of stuff. Hocal New York City. Think about you to governor in New York City. And a bunch of people have left.
Starting point is 00:04:01 And you would say in 22, documented video of this lady from three and a half years ago, three years ago. She says, if you're Republican, take your Republican money and move to Palm Beach. We don't want you here in New York. So what did Republicans do? All right. We don't feel wanted. She said that? You're going to see the clip.
Starting point is 00:04:21 Oh, wow. They moved to New York. And then guess what she said yesterday. Hey, you know, we lost so many people that have moved to Palm Beach. we need some New Yorkers that are willing to give their money here to taxes. We need you to go to Palm Beach and bring some of those New Yorkers back. Oh, now. Weird.
Starting point is 00:04:40 But you know what, though? A lot of analysts said no one's going to leave New York. Oh, yeah, I remember that. You know that? A lot of high-in analysts. Business analysts, tax analysts. Yeah. No, no, no, I'm talking about analysts.
Starting point is 00:04:49 Analyst. Nobody will be leaving New York whatsoever. They're so fired up about Mamdani. Oh, yeah. And we'll pay the tax. We'll pay the extra tax. They're noble. Of course.
Starting point is 00:05:00 So is it convincing to come back or go get him like Maduro? He says, you're almost talking like you want New York to fail and you want people to leave. I said, no, I got a big investment in New York, man. I don't want nothing to fail. I wanted to succeed Yankees. You want the traffic. You want the things to happen there. But anyways, we'll talk about that again.
Starting point is 00:05:16 You remember when all the NATO people said, we're not going to do this, we're not going to participate, we're not going to do it. Well, guess what? It changed very quickly within 24 hours. Okay. Five NATO nations, including Japan. Japan is the country that knows a lot about surprises. Let's not forget. That's so funny.
Starting point is 00:05:31 Yeah. So Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and Netherlands and Japan came into support, and we'll talk about that. Tulsi will talk about this lady from the Bachelorette. Did you see how sweet she is and what she did to her husband and her kid? Have you guys seen this clip or not? She's a type of woman that you want to introduce to your mother. I'm almost concerned about showing it to Adam because Adam may never have a kid after watching this video. It may be like the full-on condom for the rest of his life.
Starting point is 00:05:54 This is the reason why. Let's not go that far back. You have to watch this video. And then while this is going on, to all the people in media that want to report on what's going on, who were silent yesterday, just yesterday. You know what Iran chose to do yesterday? Just yesterday. Three young men, they hanged.
Starting point is 00:06:16 Publicly hanged on them from Korea. Execution. Public. This is horrible. This is horrible. In Iraq. Public. You know who talked about it?
Starting point is 00:06:23 Zero. No. Zero. This doesn't match with their narrative, so we shouldn't be talking about it. But we'll talk about it here as well. And then the president about the Pearl Harbor, and then you've got a few other things that's going on as well. Trump counterintelligence chief will resign over war in Iran is under investigation for leaking. White House slams fake narrative that Vance absent from Iran strikes amid Operation Epic Fury.
Starting point is 00:06:50 A story came out this morning, which is kind of weird. but the story came out this morning if you've been following the podcast closely, you know this. Story came out this morning that allegedly J.D. Vance is considering not running for president in 2020, due to family priorities, okay?
Starting point is 00:07:08 To spend more time with his family? That's what it is. To spend more time with family. Yeah, we've heard that. Pentagon is now asking White House for $200 billion as Trump considers deployment of thousands of troops for next phase of war in Iran.
Starting point is 00:07:22 And then one of these stories, almost 200 House Dems vote against deporting people who committed fraud. Nick Shirley went to California, found a bunch of fraud. Newsom's camp decided to retweet, and that retweet was a weird kind of a retweet, which we'll talk about. And then, you know who sat right behind of Mark Wayne Mullen when he was being sworn in, when he was going through the whole, what do you call it, the confirmation hearing? The head of the president of Teamsters. Sean O'Brien. The guy who tried to describe. He sat right behind him.
Starting point is 00:07:56 Look at the picture to the left. Sat right behind. Can you imagine their entire lives. That organization is a leftist organization. Supporting Democrats. He spoke at the RNC and now he's sitting right behind. Wow. As his guest?
Starting point is 00:08:10 As his guest sitting right behind him. The last story I want to talk about is I'm a little bit uncomfortable talking about this, but I think we have to talk about it because, listen, if it's true, it's career ending for some of us. including myself, if this is true. This is a story from Fox business. To all the people at Fox, shame on you for writing this article.
Starting point is 00:08:30 The story says, I'm almost uncomfortable. I'm sorry, it's a Daily Mail. It says, how your accent can hinder your job prospects. What you're talking about? Exactly. Study reveals how people with foreign accents
Starting point is 00:08:47 are seen as less competent. Oh, really? That's what Daily Mail says. Wow. That may be the most important story in the world, but everything that has taken place. Less confident. And then at the end of it,
Starting point is 00:08:57 damning study of over a million kids finds myocarditis only in the vaccinated, the blaze. Oh, weird. That's weird. With that being said, horrible. With that being said, before we get into it,
Starting point is 00:09:10 gang, a reminder to all of you on two separate reports, one of them shows 51% of you guys who for the last 12 months or so who consumed the PBD podcast, are not subscribers. If you enjoy what we do and the stories we cover and you're one of the ones
Starting point is 00:09:28 that drives to work listening to us or you wake up in a morning playing this or you watch it with your wife or your husband or your husband turned you on to this or your friend or vice versa, if you enjoy the madness here and you support what we do, one of the ways to show the support
Starting point is 00:09:43 is to subscribe to the channel. So if you could go right there and click on that subscribe button, it helps us out with our algorithms And with that being said, let's get right into it, Rob. With the first story I want to get into is, let's go into the first story with, what are the votes saying on the bottom on what story to get into, Rob? The execution of the Iranian wrestler.
Starting point is 00:10:07 Really? Then let's get into that, Rob. What page is that on? When Westchap first took flight in 1996, the vibes were a bit different. People thought denim on denim was peak fashion. Inline skates were everywhere. And two out of three women rocked, the Rachel. While those things stayed in the 90s, one thing that hasn't is that fuzzy feeling you get when WestJet welcomes you on board.
Starting point is 00:10:25 Here's to Westjetting since 96. Travel back in time with us and actually travel with us at westjet.com slash 30 years. Getting ready for a game means being ready for anything. Like packing a spare stick. I like to be prepared. That's why I remember 988, Canada's suicide crisis helpline. It's good to know just in case. Anyone can call or text for free confidential support from a train respond.
Starting point is 00:10:54 anytime. 988 Suicide Crisis Helpline is funded by the government in Canada. Salem. Is it seven? Yes. Page seven? Okay, there it is. I don't see it on page seven, Rob. I'm like snookly programmed.
Starting point is 00:11:16 I don't see it on page seven. What page seven? Oh, I'm sorry, page eight, Mohammed, Mojitaba. Okay, there you go. Okay, so here we go. This, by the way, if you live in a free country, you almost don't believe these stories. You're going to say there's no way this is.
Starting point is 00:11:30 true and this is what's happening, but this is what's happening. Mocetab al-Hamene's regime, the IRGC in Iran, executes champion wrestler as Iran intensifies brutal crackdown during war. There's a video of them, Rob, if you want to see them in court while the, yeah, right there. Go ahead and play this clip. Go forward, Rob.
Starting point is 00:11:52 Breaking war against God by drawing a cold weapon, such as a knife or sword during illegal gatherings and riots and causing violence that leads to, to murder and martyrdom is a serious matter. Unfortunately, in the city of KOM during the early hours of the night on the 18th, such a tragic event occurred. So this is what the court is saying. These are the three boys you can hang it.
Starting point is 00:12:13 You can stop it right there. Yes. So while this is happening, okay, in Iran, let me read this story to you. And I want to come to you guys. I want to come to you guys, the Islamic Republic of Iran Judiciary on Thursday, ignore the U.S. State Department. Warning, along with police from elite Iranian-American wrestlers to, not execute 19-year-old champion wrestler Saleh Mohamedi for protesting against the Khomeini regime.
Starting point is 00:12:39 Reports say, Mohamedi was killed in a public hanging seen as a barbaric move by the Iranian regime to snuff out the ongoing movement seeking to topple it. Nemo Fahara, human rights activist and the Iranian combat athlete, who's an expert on elite Iranian wrestling, told Fox News Digital his execution was a blatant political murder, part of the Islamic Republic pattern of targeting athletes who crush dissent and terrorized society as seen with Navid Afghari and others executed despite international outcry. He said the IOC International Olympic Committee and the UWW United World Wrestling should have intervened forcefully with public ultimatums, threatening immediate suspension of Iran's NOC National Olympic Committee
Starting point is 00:13:23 and Federation. If the killing proceeded rather than relying on ineffective quiet diplomacy, given their own commitments to protect athletes from politically motivated harm. Vinnie. Well, I don't know if you guys caught that, that the human rights group said that he was tortured into confessing to a crime that he didn't do. Everybody's out there. Remember the revolution was happening?
Starting point is 00:13:47 People were in the streets. They were fighting. Can you say that one more time? But this is a thing, because there's people that will say, no, they killed a couple people. This is what they did. Their model, repeat what you just said right now, please. I'm going to say that again.
Starting point is 00:13:59 The human rights group said that Mohamedi was tortured into confessing to the capital charge of waging war against God. Okay? But guys, there's zero, zero belief that I believe that that is like the fact that he just was in the street, a professional high profile athlete and he's in the street stabbing people. Really, really? Think about that for a second. It was a political murder, what they did with him. Okay. Now, I want you guys, FYI, has there been an update of the female soccer team?
Starting point is 00:14:31 Think about right now where those girls are, not the ones that defected and stayed here. Think about the Iranian women. If they're doing this to him, these women embarrass the Islamic regime, they're probably in a dungeon right now getting tortured and probably worse. Tom, do you agree? I absolutely agree. And I think what also happened here, we have to understand how these kind of regimes work. People say, he's such a high-profile guy. You know, how could they do it to such a high-profile guy?
Starting point is 00:14:58 You know, well, that's the point. If we're willing to execute this guy, imagine what we do to you. And the crime is a by waging war against God. And then they also were saying he had a knife. He actually stabbed one of the police officers. Those weren't police officers. They were government soldiers shooting into crowds. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:15:21 And so when you look at the whole thing here, I look back, and do you remember where this started to me four weeks ago? What did Trump say? Don't you execute people you want to call dissidents? Don't step over that red line. And here we are. And you know what drives me crazy, Tom? People sit here in comfort and they act, or I think it's just they're uneducated.
Starting point is 00:15:44 They don't do the research. The Iranian regime, they're like, oh, they're just misunderstood. We need more diplomacy. No, okay? They hang citizens for pro. protesting in the street and not just a regular citizen guy this is like pat this is like their number one wrestler this is like an Olympic freaking high like and if they could kill that guy imagine the regular people that don't mean anything so uh just FYI the people out there if they
Starting point is 00:16:08 treat their people like this how do you think they treat the rest of the world how do you think that they look at people like us when they say death to america when they and then their shock when this pressure is going to start coming back to them now at the same time i'm not stupid everybody has agendas from lindsay graham and everybody they want their stuff about this I understand that. But don't, please, don't let it distract you from the main point. For 47 years, these people have been under this freaking regime that has been doing this. Guys, now it's coming to light. Now you're seeing what they're doing. People didn't, nobody gave a damn. Everybody's too busy with their freaking Starbucks and the
Starting point is 00:16:41 latte is walking around. Now all eyes are on them. And besides the Israel and all that, put all that stuff aside. War is ugly. I get it. People have their agendas. Look at what the people. Look at what this freaking guy. Did you see the other guy sitting with him with the cross on the? neck, imagine the ball is on that guy, getting a tattoo in the Islamic, freaking, control place of Iran with that, okay? And this is what I want to say. Last thing. It's really, really simple.
Starting point is 00:17:04 If you want to be left alone as a nation, stop killing your own citizens, stop backing terrorists, stop screaming death to America, and everybody will leave your ass alone. But you chose to be this type of attitude. Now everybody's watching you. And you want to know who it is? I'll give you one last shot on this. Go ahead. Let's all watch.
Starting point is 00:17:22 Which members of our government, which elected senators, and congressmen condemn this. Who condemns it? Talib, I challenge you to condemn this. Jeffreys, I challenge you to condemn this. They're not going to do this. You're not going to do that. Where's Megan Reponi or any of the athletes
Starting point is 00:17:36 that are so worried about people and athletes and Ms. Justice? Where are you? I haven't heard one athlete. One person say something. By the way, Joe Rob, Rob, show that. These guys are all dead. Yesterday, these guys were all hanged in the freaking street and the guy on the left is a wrestler.
Starting point is 00:17:53 Not a peep. Where are you at? Where's your online rent? Do you know what could happen? You know what could happen? What major event is coming up? World Cup. In what country?
Starting point is 00:18:03 United States. Do you know if the president wanted to, he can say, listen, don't worry about not having your Iranian soccer team compete. They can't. You're out. Yeah. They did that with Russia. He can make that announcement and say, you want to do this?
Starting point is 00:18:19 We don't want people like you here. So now the challenge becomes. what? The players are going to be like, what do we do wrong, right? Yeah. But this could be a direct shot to Iran if they do something like this. We'll see. We'll see what's going to happen with it. Adam, your thoughts on this story. Well, I've said this before and I'll say it again. Iran is the best country in the world at killing their own people. That's kind of like their thing. You know, uh, nobody is shocked by this. This is what they do. Uh, he was charged with what? A war against God. This is why the fastest
Starting point is 00:18:55 growing religion in Iran, in the Islamic Republic of Iran, is not Islam. It's either Christianity, Zoroastrianism, or just completely agnostic atheists. It's driving all
Starting point is 00:19:11 its own citizens away from Allah. So it's a counterproductive at the very least. So they have something and correct me if I'm wrong, Pat, something called the morality. police in Iran? Oh, you're showing your hair. Ten lashes for you. Showing your hair. Right? God forbid you
Starting point is 00:19:31 speak out against the government. You're going to be hanged publicly. So the last point that I'll say is this. We in America have no clue what it's like on that side of the world. We have no clue. Think about just in the last five years the protest that people have been a part of. Whether it's on the left of the right, whether it's BLM, whether it's the Me Too movement, whether it's defund the police, whether it's the free Palestine movement, whether it's even J6 and anything in between, nobody's getting hung. Nobody's being executed.
Starting point is 00:20:03 Maybe you go to jail, maybe. The biggest point is this. We have the beauty of living in America. We have the justice system. We have law and order. We have no clue how crazy it is on that side of the world. And this is just unfortunate another example. Well, but you know what drives me crazy too?
Starting point is 00:20:19 I can already imagine what the chat, or I do not look at the chat. I don't look at it. it at all. But the fact that people, automatically your brain goes, Israel, you're like, shut the hell up for two seconds of your freaking life and think about what is actually
Starting point is 00:20:33 happening to the people. Take Israel out of your brain for two minutes and at least admit two things can exist at the same time. Yes, Israel wants this war. Okay, congratulations. Put that to the side. Is this not bother you? Does this not infuriate you? And
Starting point is 00:20:49 they're just sitting there, knowing their fate, knowing their fate, because they have the freaking balls to stand in the street and say enough enough their fathers their mothers their grandparents their great-grandparents under this freaking regime and then finally people are starting to do something and all you can do is just one is just Israel is Israel is Israel okay take that put it to the side there's these freaking people are are getting murdered and nobody gives a shit nobody cares I want one I want one athlete to step up not I haven't heard one be honest have you heard one pat have you heard one athlete say
Starting point is 00:21:23 Anything. America? Any athlete. Well, any. Let me just echo what you're saying, Vinnie. It drives me crazy. And I understand, I understand why you feel. There was an African-American UFC fighter that said I couldn't fight all day because I saw the wrestler.
Starting point is 00:21:38 He says the entire, he says, I don't know why, but I was messed up in the middle of the fight. I couldn't fight. I couldn't even attack. That's all I was thinking about is a friend, a person that's a wrestler like me got killed for what he does just because he had a different opinion. That guy right there. Is that it? Yeah, can you play that? Can you play that?
Starting point is 00:21:55 Who is this, by the way? Can we give credit to his name? Bobby Green. What's his name, Bobby Green? Go on and play it, Rob. Had a few minutes to digest. Now, I'd just like to hear your evaluation of your performance. Can I curse?
Starting point is 00:22:06 No. Yeah, you can't. Fucking terrible. I felt that was terrible. I felt that was off. I don't know. I just felt like I was out of it. I don't know why.
Starting point is 00:22:15 Sometimes we have bad nights, I guess. Tonight was my bad night, you know, where I was just like, what's the matter with you? Like, hit him. Like, catch him after that hand. What are you doing? I was just really in my head a lot, you know? Like, you guys show that terrible freaking thing with Navid,
Starting point is 00:22:30 and it just fucked me up, you know? You really just crushed me today. Like, somebody lost it life today, you know? Somebody lost their life today. I don't know if that means much of y'all, but that means a lot to me, you know? That's the part of our community. I'm a wrestler. That was a wrestling coach.
Starting point is 00:22:43 He changed people's lives, and he just lost his life. Fucking sad. I saw, we saw you emotional on the broadcast. I was going to ask you. How much do you think that affected you in there, just saying that right before. I'm not going to lie. It fuck me up, man.
Starting point is 00:22:56 You can't pause it right there. Can I ask you something? Yeah. So Rob, I don't know if you can try to find what Dana White said, but here you have two different wrestlers. You have an American wrestler doing a press conference, and you have an Iranian wrestler who's seen his life taken because he was protesting. You have obviously family.
Starting point is 00:23:17 You're born in Iran. Walk us through the mindset of being a national hero, but then being killed for not towing the line for your country's honor, so to speak. Well, you have to realize. Like, one of the things like when we came from Iran and we landed in Germany and we came to the states, we're watching the news. Somebody on the news was saying bad things about the president of the United States. This is 1990.
Starting point is 00:23:44 We just came to America. And my mom's watching and saying, poor guy, they're probably going to kill him. Oh, wow. That was the first place or mineway. Because the mindset for us is you can't do that. In America, it's a business model to trash the president. You can't do that in Iran. By the way, you can't do that in Russia.
Starting point is 00:24:03 Of course. You can't do that in China. You can't do that in most of these countries. By the way, nowadays, you know, people have a hard time doing it on some of the countries, and now it's getting opened up with Venezuela. So the U.K. The risk of freedom of speech is what? you're going to get pushback and disagreement.
Starting point is 00:24:23 You can't do that in Iran. So in Iran, the messaging goes, the guy we played a week and a half ago, he says, bring all of those people back, make an example of them, so everybody knows you can never, ever speak out against the Islamic Revolutionary Guard. But in America, that's not something that's a, this guy right here. Listen to what he says. Go ahead, Rob. Parents.
Starting point is 00:24:48 Just two minutes. Your son or daughter doesn't listen. It's not our fault. Anyone in Iran today who utters a tune that harmonizes with the enemy. Under their feet is Tel Aviv. And in their head is Netanyahu. A shooting order has been issued for them. No one has ever spoken to you this, frankly.
Starting point is 00:25:04 We don't want your child to be killed because your child is ignorant. Do you hear that like the... Don't make us kill your kids. Don't make us kill your kids. It's like the husband that the guy that hits his wife and says, you made me do this. Or the father that hits his son and says, you made me do this. Why did you make me do this to you? Why did you make me do this to you?
Starting point is 00:25:23 That's what that is. So it's a very different world that is taking place. And by the way, guess what? That's someone's son, that someone's brother, that someone's nephew, that someone's cousin, gone. There is no more birthdays, dinners, nothing. None of that stuff. That guy's gone. No matter all the protesting you do today, those guys are not coming back, their lives are gone. That's what that regime thinks when it comes on to any of their existing athlete speaking against their people. I want to get to the next story. I just wanted to ask you one follow up,
Starting point is 00:25:52 because this comes down to mindset. Power versus force. I don't know if we can pull that up. Walk me where you think the mindset of people of Iran are at this point. Obviously, you know. Iran or IRGC? Both. The people of Iran and the people of the IRGC,
Starting point is 00:26:08 where are they mentally, emotionally, on the Power versus Force chart? Yeah, there you go. Okay. Map of consciousness. So you look at this and you go to row three, where it says level. The Iran, like the government of Iran, it's all the way at the bottom is shame, humiliation, elimination. Look at the process.
Starting point is 00:26:29 God view, despising, life view, miserable, level, shame. Shame on you for speaking against your, then emotion, humiliation. We're going to humiliate these guys. Process, let's eliminate them. Yeah. Okay, you go to the second one is guilt. Life view, evil. God view, vindictive, emotion, blame, process, destruction.
Starting point is 00:26:54 Iran, the government is all in the bottom red is where they are. That's where they are. Every one of the, look at the people. Condemning hopeless, apathy, despair, abduction, disdainful, tragic grief, regret, despondency. This is a very different type of a place to be living, and I live there again, like I told you, 11 years. And you think the people are aware in the fear or grief?
Starting point is 00:27:20 The people that are going in the streets are in the courage level. Oh, yeah. They have courage to go in the streets and say, hey, I think some's going to change. They're in the willingness. I'm willing to put my life on the line because I want us to be free. I'm optimistic that it's worth doing. Okay. I'm optimistic.
Starting point is 00:27:38 They're in that phase right there. And some is even the people, yeah. Some is also in the pride level. They got pride for their country. This is Iran. to be free. Anyways, listen, may God rest the souls of those three young men that were just executed, okay? And I can't even say, may God have mercy on their enemies. I don't know if he's going to. I don't know if I can even say that. I don't know if he's going to have mercy on what they did to them.
Starting point is 00:28:05 I don't know. I mean, we're seeing right now what has happened with these guys left and right. We're seeing it. So anyways, war is nasty, war is ugly. But you hate that. You hate that. You hate that. You when you see a country that's willing to execute their own people to make an example to the world. Let me get to the next story here that we have. Tom, I'm going to come to you with Trump warns Iran not to retaliate against Qatar following Israel attacks on Gasfield. Rob, if you have a Trump's tweet on this,
Starting point is 00:28:36 because there was a lot of things with this that happened yesterday, even I think BB had to come out and not apologize, but said that the president and the U.S. knew nothing about it. I don't know if you got seen that clip or not, but let me read this to you. President Trump said Wednesday that the U.S. has no advanced knowledge of an Israeli strike on a major Iranian natural gas field that prompted Iran to retaliate against neighboring Qatar and sent oil process. Is this the one?
Starting point is 00:29:00 The United States knew nothing about this particular attack, and the country of Qatar was in no way, shape, or form involved with it, nor did it have anything that it was going to happen. No more attacks will be made by Israel pertaining to this extremely important and valuable South Parsfield unless Iran unwisely decides to attack a very innocent in this case, Qatar. Tom, your thoughts on this? Boy, what a tangled web we have over there. So the president is issuing, you know, one of many ultimatums, but he's trying to pull the heat off Qatar. And in this case, apparently Qatar didn't do anything. It was Israel. And so he's trying to come back and say,
Starting point is 00:29:39 hey, listen, you may be mad at Israel, but don't go after Qatar. Now, the reason is that reason is, is there's a gas field that's in Qatar. And so it's like eye for an eye, tooth for tooth. You know what I mean, Pat? Oh, military base, bang, bang, bang. You hit a ship, bang, bang, you hit a port, bang, bang, you hit a barracks. Well, now this is a gas field. This is significant. This is very significant. Because now we have moved from military targets to civilian targets, the desalination plant in Bahrain, and now we're moving to civilian production. Now, you could say it's state production, okay, but we're moving up on the list of targets, and Trump is trying very hard to get around to understand that this is not, I don't want you to go back and attack these guys,
Starting point is 00:30:31 because he's trying to protect Qatar a little bit, but really what he's trying to protect Pat is energy, and energy manufacturing and energy deployment. That's what he's trying to protect. Adam, thoughts. So everyone has a different agenda, right? There's some three main players here. You have the United States.
Starting point is 00:30:53 You have Israel and you have Iran. Obviously, there's some ancillary players. You have the Gulf States. So everyone has a different agenda. So what is USA's agenda, right? You could say that it's to completely weaken Iran. Right? whereas Israel, they probably want to take it a step forward.
Starting point is 00:31:11 They want to completely destroy Iran. What's Iran's goal here? What's their ideal outcome? Just survive. So how is Iran going to survive? Well, they're not going to beat American Israel in a war. They're already getting destroyed. So what are their ramifications?
Starting point is 00:31:26 What can Iran do? Well, they can basically shoot up gas stations and ships and ports to basically eliminate the energy. because what percentage of the world's energy comes from the straight of Hormuz, Tom, like 20%. Correct. So they're not going to win a real war, so they have to basically beat up and destroy their own assets and neighbors
Starting point is 00:31:49 and citizens, as we just covered. They'll destroy gas stations, they'll destroy boats, they'll destroy their neighbors' infrastructure, and they'll kill their own citizens. So what happens when an animal is back into a corner, they'll lash out and try to, save their own life, this is what they're doing. They're playing for their own life here.
Starting point is 00:32:12 And whether this, you know how long we've been at war with Iran now? 47 years. Well said. But this particular version, three weeks. Everyone wants this done. What's it? Oh, when do we, it? It's been three weeks, guys. February 28th. Today's March 20th? This can't be a long war, Adam. Okay. This can not be a long war. So, great question. Great point. It can't be long. Define long. Because to me, three to six months is completely normal. Anything above six months is a long war. Anything above six months. And by the way, let me tell you, there's two things I'll read to you here. The reason why I'm saying anything about six months is a long war,
Starting point is 00:32:53 former Israeli ambassador doesn't think Iran's war will last for an extra six months. He doesn't believe it'll last for an extra six months. Doesn't believe. I don't know what that means. Does that mean that, hey, mentally get ready, it's going to be six to 12 months? It could be 12 plus months. You don't want to get this thing into that level. It's FY. While we're talking about Qatar, the reason why this matters a lot, let me give you some numbers here. The Iran-Cutter South Pard's North Dome Gasfield is huge.
Starting point is 00:33:19 Cutter produces 18.5 billion cubic feet per day from it, and Iran's share is 2 billion cubic feet a day, which is roughly 70 to 75 percent of Iran's total gas production globally it's the largest gas reserve in the world. So it's not like this is something small that they are messing with. The president's not going to go and tweet this and look at the first sentence what he says. Rob, you just have to tweet up.
Starting point is 00:33:46 He says, Israel out of anger, Israel out of anger for what has taken place in the Middle East has violently lashed out. Those are not complimentary words towards Israel. Lashed out at a major facility known as a South Parsfield in Iran, a relatively small section of the whole has been here at the U.S. knew nothing about this particular attack
Starting point is 00:34:09 in a country. Cutter was in no way, shape, or form involved in. No, did it have. So look what he's saying. It's like, hey, this is the second time he's done this. This is the second time he's done this. Like, hey, what are you doing? Don't forget the last time. Do I believe who?
Starting point is 00:34:22 Trump. That's saying what? Do you think that he feels this way or it's projection being like, listen, I know what you did, but I'm going to publicly. It's 50-50. I think it's 50-50, but I think a part of it is, no, listen, all I'm going to do is I'm going to process the way I think, and I relate to what he's saying because of how I would process.
Starting point is 00:34:44 I would call and say, what, what are you doing? What are you doing? If you want my help and you want me to support, you can't do something like this. Cutter's a partner of ours. You want me to get a call from them saying, hey, I thought you had Israel under control. and then now you do something like this, don't do this again. Don't do this again. So to me, I do think a call like that took place,
Starting point is 00:35:08 and I do believe Trump said, you better get in front of the camera and talk about the fact that U.S. had nothing to do with it, and he did. I don't know if you guys saw, BB got out there and said that in no way, shape, or form was U.S. involved on this, and he almost had to, what do you call it? Apologize you saying?
Starting point is 00:35:26 Apologize for it. Could it be a different way, though? Oh, I know because I love what you said on, but here's my thing, Pat. At what point, so if Israel has, like, this is the second time. That right there, watch this? Yeah, go ahead. Play this? So why is he talking this?
Starting point is 00:35:39 Why is he saying this? Go ahead. Fact number one, Israel acted alone against the East. Right off the bat. Pause it right there. I guarantee you the president said, in the first three seconds, don't drag out the statement. In the first three seconds, make it very clear so the world knows we had nothing to do with this. Go back and play the whole thing for 30 seconds, Rob.
Starting point is 00:36:00 Fact number one, Israel acted alone against the Slauia gas compound. Fact number two, President Trump asked us to hold off on future attacks, and we're holding out. What do we see – what happens if the – are there any signs that the Iranian regime is cracking? A lot of signs. A lot of signs. I wish I could divulge all of them, but I see that. But will I tell you – will I commit right now that it's going to collapse? I can tell you that we're working composite.
Starting point is 00:36:32 So this is the second time. We have to be, this is a very delicate situation. Wait a minute, guys. Are you telling me Trump supported this hit? No, no, no, no. No, no, no, no. Can I say what? I'm above 50-50 that Trump was telling the absolute truth in that post.
Starting point is 00:36:48 And he was trying to protect the energy production. What I'm saying is, Pat? What's your point, Vinnie? My point is we went to this together. And what Marco Rubio said is, we knew Israel was going to go, so we went. Yeah, you can't do that. You're ready for this?
Starting point is 00:37:03 You know why this is dangerous? We're partners in this. So if your partner is going, for instance, Pat, if me and Adam are going to somebody's house and Adam takes out a gun and shoots the person at the house, I'm going to jail too.
Starting point is 00:37:16 So this looks horrible on us because, wait, wait, you can't do that shit and then be like, oh, my bad, he told us not to do it again. This is a very, very delicate situation. Yeah, this is not good. I don't like it. So what I've learned from Trump, and even BB, what they say publicly might be different from what they do privately.
Starting point is 00:37:36 There's a chance. I'm not giving a 100% guarantee. There's a chance that the military knew, hey, listen, Israel's going to do this. But what we're going to do is publicly be like, dude, don't do that again. You know I told you, but in private be like, you know. Zero. There's a chance. No, the chance is less than 5%. And let me tell you,
Starting point is 00:38:02 that is like the dumbest thing for me to believe. Again, we'll debate. This is what we do. But let me tell you what my perspective on this is. What is my outcome? What am I dealing with right now? How does that help me? Like, you know when Joe Kent sent that tweet out and got whatever, you know, 100 million views?
Starting point is 00:38:20 And I asked the question, who did this benefit the most? Number one, Joe Kent. Who else did the benefit? Who else did that benefit? Well, you know, adversaries, the left, the woke right, who also the benefit? Who does it benefit for you to attack? Parse? Tell me how that benefits Trump.
Starting point is 00:38:37 Go ahead. Give me three negotiating leverage on how that helps Trump. Zero. I'm waiting for it. Zero. Zero. How this would help from? In what way you're hitting this, that's a partner of yours, you're behind closed doors.
Starting point is 00:38:51 You're just convinced NATO to come and support you, and they don't want to get any deeper and then the partner, how do you think this call goes? Hey guys, listen, UK, France, I have Israel under control. UK, France, Germany, Netherlands, you guys, Japan come through and nothing's going to happen. We need your back. We got to be politically on the same page, you know, all this other stuff. And then while I'm getting you to say, no, it's not as bad as you think it is. We have this under control. Boom, you hit parts. And then they're calling him in, do you have control of your guys or what? What is he doing? No, no, I have control. Hey, what the, what do you? That's how this goes. I see your point. No, I don't, I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't.
Starting point is 00:39:26 I don't like it. I'm just wondering if how closely the military is communicating on these types of things. You have to realize. Or if it's just kind of like you do your thing, you do your thing, we'll meet in the middle. Between these two countries, who do you think wants to eliminate Iran more? Israel. Israel or U.S. They're right there.
Starting point is 00:39:47 Give me to split. 8020. Okay. I'm with that. Like I said earlier, Israel wants them with 80. Okay. United States wants to weaken them. Totally get it.
Starting point is 00:39:57 80-20. This is not a monroe doctrine. This is not a, you know, on our side. But guess what? We have partners. And right now he's working with the Board of Peace. So he's bringing a lot of the Gulf states. He likes to work with the Gulf States folks.
Starting point is 00:40:10 He likes that he's decent and good with Qatar and, you know, Saudi and all those guys. He's, he's broken a deal that's never happened before, right? So we understand Israel's like in the meaning of Israel, hey, do we tell them or no? Hit it. Yes. Hit it. Do you want to call the president? No, we are our own country.
Starting point is 00:40:27 Hit it. If you do that, if you do that in these types of situations, this is, like, listen, if I get a call from school and one of my kids gets in trouble, here's how I work with them. I say, you tell me the truth, I have your back. But don't put me in a position where I can't defend you, okay? So this goes to the story where one time he gets kicked out of soccer camp because he punched a kid in a face and knocked them out.
Starting point is 00:40:53 And so all we see is he punched a kid in the face, and this is Tico. The kid is knocked out on the floor crying mom and dad. What kind of a son are you? What's wrong with your son? I'm like, wait a minute. What? What happened? He comes to me crying.
Starting point is 00:41:10 You know I never lied to you. You know I never lied to you. Look at me in my face. What happened? He punched me in the stomach first. I said, I'm going to go fight for you, but you better not lie to me right now. telling you the truth. I go to the owner. I said, turn all your cameras on. I want to see what happened. They turned the camera on and it shows that the kid punched Tico in the stomach first.
Starting point is 00:41:33 Then he knocked his ass out. So I said, because they kicked him out, suspended him, humiliated him in front of all the kids. I said, hey, you guys got to apologize to him, not to me. He's got to come in. They kicked the other kid out and Tico went back to practice. That part is very clear. You do something like this. They don't do stuff like this. If I'm going to empower you, you need me. You need me. You need to. did our B-2 bombers to go out there and shoot the nuclear sides. What the hell are you doing? You don't behave like this.
Starting point is 00:41:58 Get your act together. So I think there's a part of that that behind closed door happened. But Trump also doesn't want to elevate it publicly more than it is. Even though he is here furious, he has to be here because what is everybody else going to say? What are they waiting to say? I told you. I told you. No, no.
Starting point is 00:42:20 Relax. Yeah. He effed up. Get on the camera. and saying the first 10 seconds that you effed up. B.B. followed the lead. Number one. No, U.S. didn't have any involvement. Number two.
Starting point is 00:42:31 No, no, no, no. Okay, great. Let's move on. Okay, but you screwed up. Go ahead. Well, here's my question. It's a second time, by the way. This is the second time, but here's my thing. The only reason you would do something like that, Pat, is if you knew you were going to get away with it. And I think Bibi knows when, just like how you said it,
Starting point is 00:42:45 when Bibi said, hit him. But what about Trump? It'll be fine. That's the scary part about this, because now this is twice. Now in a full straged war, what else is next? What else is going to be the next thing, God forbid, that Bibi does and goes, it's okay, he's going to be fine with it. That's a huge problem.
Starting point is 00:43:01 This isn't like you took out one person, you shot them. This is going to affect the civilian population. Correct. This is a huge problem. Adam, this isn't like a rinky ding thing. This is the thing where he's probably sitting there and they were like, Mr. Prime Minister, if you do this, he's going to be furious.
Starting point is 00:43:17 And he still said, do it. That's not a good thing. And Pat's right. You're giving the other side ammunition to be like, oh, you see? You see, he owns him. He can do whatever. No, no, he got to, he, he, I'm happy that he did it this way. That comes from very consistent about protecting the energy production.
Starting point is 00:43:33 Yeah, you can't do that. When he hit Carg Island, he said, I only hit military. I'm not going to touch. Listen, that part is what validates that he's not owned by anybody. Trump. He owes favors because you're a dealmaker. When you're doing deals, what do you do when you're making deals? This guy does your favor?
Starting point is 00:43:49 I've got you on something else. A deal maker, what is a deal? Like, if you actually think about what a deal is. Two people leading in the middle to accomplish a goal. You scratch my back, I scratch your back. So guess what? Funny thing about my back? Does he have these things?
Starting point is 00:44:03 Does he have these things that's going on? Yeah, of course. But do I think in this situation he's showing that, hey, pump the brakes and don't do that again? Yes. Will they accidentally push a little bit more than they probably should to get something's past? Yes. Long term does that benefit him? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:44:20 to see what's going to happen here. And by the way, as we're going through this, but oil prices, Goldman Sachs put out a report that I want to read to you guys on the basic formula for everybody to follow it. This is the formula that they're given on how it works out. So, attacks on energy infrastructure means higher energy costs everywhere. For perspective, $10 barrel oil translates to $10 plus oil translates to roughly a direct impact of 0.1.0.000. 1% to the US GDP. So if the Middle East tensions push oil $40, it could subtract 0.4% of US GDP, which is $100 billion and lost economic growth and higher prices. So just know that number right there. Per $10 equals 0.1% of GDP. Okay. So if this all of a sudden goes, because some analysts are
Starting point is 00:45:14 saying that it may go to $200, Tom, you've seen that before. If it goes up $200, what's $200? $200 would mean it's going up from 67, 65. It's 135. 135 if it's 0.1%. It could be an impact of a trillion, trillion and a half in economy. So there is a direct impact that's being posed with this, because as they're breaking it down, they're seeing what's going on. Right now, gas prices are what?
Starting point is 00:45:43 Is it U.S. crude oil? It's a 9537, Tom? U.S. average, I thought, was 387 yesterday. Can you just, Rob, just... Gas prices? Yeah, U.S. gas price, national average. Go to AAA or... Yes.
Starting point is 00:45:57 388. 387, 388. Mid-range, 4388. 438. Yeah, the regular is 87 gas and mid-grade is the 89 gas. We'll see. We'll see what's going to happen with that. It's up. It's almost $4 for regular.
Starting point is 00:46:11 regular. I'm just saying airline flights are about to start going crazy. Which flights? Airlines. Yeah, they're saying summer fare... Because with the shutdown, T.S. TSA's got huge lines. Summer fare could go up.
Starting point is 00:46:22 Air fares could spike more than $100 as jet fuel prices rise over Iran experts. Rob, is this it about... Yes, from CBS News. It's three minutes, Rob. I don't want to go three minutes. She gets to it right in the end. Okay, go for it. The war in Iran has caused oil and gas prices to spike, and it's not just affecting cars on the road.
Starting point is 00:46:38 A recent analysis by Deutsche Bank shows those rising oil prices are also leading to airlines hiking their ticket prices. The analysis also warns airlines may start reducing flights, grounding planes all together if the cost of jet fuel continues to grow. Okay. When I sell my business, I want the best tax and investment advice. I want to help my kids, and I want to give back to the community.
Starting point is 00:47:00 Ooh, then it's the vacation of a lifetime. I wonder if my head of office has a forever setting.

Starting point is 00:47:58 That's a part of the, you know, for every $10 barrel, you're looking at 0.1% to GDP in ways that we're measuring. This is one of the ways that the impact will be. But let me go to the Joe Kent story, Rob. What new things have formulated with Joe Kent? Is that, okay, let me read that one and we'll get into. We'll open it up. Trump counterintelligence chief who resigned over U.S. over war in Iran under investigation for leaking. Okay, so we have a bunch of things on.
Starting point is 00:48:26 this so guys be ready because I'm gonna come to you and Vinnie I'm probably coming to you first okay what page is that Robbenny page 16 uh it doesn't match page 16 rob the story so if you're page 15 Trump counterintelligence chief so let me go to page 15 so the former counterintelligence chief who resigned over the ongoing conflict with iran is reportedly on their investigation at the FBI joe kent who issued the escaping letter of the resignation national candidate terrorism has been accused of improperly sharing classified information according to Semfer. Semaphir, the probing to his alleged misconduct
Starting point is 00:49:00 has been ongoing for months and predates his resignations from the intelligence agency. This is Daily Mail. The shocking development comes just hours after Kent told Tucker that the U.S. was providing faulty intelligence from Israel about the war. White House officials suggested Tuesday that Kent was an egomaniac
Starting point is 00:49:16 who was responsible for national security leagues. Kent said in his post on next that he could not in good conscience. We read that. Iran posed no amendment. We read that. It marks the first major and voluntary departure of senior Trump administration officials since he retook office last year. So, Viniam, I've come to you first. Yeah, well, I mean, listen, again, everything, I saw Joe Kent's face maybe three months ago one time, never knew who he was, didn't do, you know, because, you know, he was never in the news.
Starting point is 00:49:45 So then when you do some research, I mean, obviously, Tom Woz, 11 tours. How many tours do he have? Decorated, gold star? Decorated, like, soldier, loves America. lost his wife, I believe in a terrorist attack in Syria? If I'm correct, that's correct. All of a sudden, this, yeah, 11 completed combat tours, primarily in Iraq, earned six bronze stars for his service.
Starting point is 00:50:09 So I don't know if they're out of nowhere, this just come out of nowhere that this happens because if, first of all, put the suicide, thank him for his service, awesome as a veteran, God rest his wife's soul. but when it comes to the stuff that we're hearing about leaked, if anything from him was leaked, because this is what it's kind of sounded like, was leaked. And somehow, because what's the first interview that he did? First interview, first podcast, went to Tucker.
Starting point is 00:50:37 We're finding out from the CIA, and mind you, I talked about this earlier in the week, the CIA is not just going to wake up and go, yo, we're going to monitor Tucker, because you guys know that they're not supposed to do any operations or any surveillance on American soil. That type of situation. No, never.
Starting point is 00:50:51 No. Yeah. No, why would they do that? So that means that you're communicating with the foreign nation that we're freaking about to go to war with. They're going to tap your phone. So this is starting to look like there were some leaks on the top that trickled down to somebody like Tucker. Tucker was in communication with Iran. And this could look really, really, really bad. I think this is, I think this is nasty than you guys think. Way worse. What do you think the... Oh, I think this is going to go all the way to the top. Really? I think this is going to go all the way to the top. Your opinion, what do you think? Like, how did this all, like, what made him go on X, posted letter, say he's going to retire? No, no, no. Or he's resigning.
Starting point is 00:51:33 Well, listen, allegedly, there was a couple guys that confronted him because he got caught showing and he promised that he wasn't going to do anything. He finally confessed that he shared intel with Tucker. Oh, man. Okay. And they addressed it. They went up to him. Allegedly.
Starting point is 00:51:50 Okay. So allegedly they did. But they mean intelligence? They were like, you know, dude. Yeah, guys are like, hey, why are you leaking info to Tucker? And then he comes back.
Starting point is 00:52:01 And now there is even stories. So if you remember last year, again, remember, Laura Lumer last year, say what you want about her. She got, you know, Waltz, you know, fired from his position, okay, with the stuff that was showing. Last year, she says this.
Starting point is 00:52:19 I told you last year, Kent leaked President Trump's private messages in meetings, particularly his meetings with Jewish Republicans, to Tucker Carlson and Max Blumenthal, when admin officials caught Kent, who was in the hallway to Trump's office, when he was seen picking up his phone and texting Tucker, he was confronted by senior White House officials
Starting point is 00:52:37 who wanted to see if he would lie to their faces. So they cornered him and asked him if he leaked to Tucker. They said he knew it was him. Kent confessed, Ken told him, if you ever do that again, you're fired. Kent was told, if you ever do that again again, this is not a, this was a year ago. Who told Kent that? The other officials told them that the senior White House officials.
Starting point is 00:52:58 So then now you're hearing reports that, that this is a little bit weird to even talk about, now you're seeing reports of, you know, yesterday, Tulsi or two days ago, she's being asked and pressed on questions about this, and her answer is very vanilla, okay? very vanilla, very, very vanilla. And remember, for the last six months, what has everybody been saying? Where's Tulsi? I haven't seen her now.
Starting point is 00:53:24 Where's Tulsi? Where's Tulsi? So to me, is this it, Rob, where she's kind of like, said a lot of things in that letter? Yeah, this is the one. So if you want to, it's a minute 30. If you, yeah, if you want to play it and go play it?
Starting point is 00:53:39 Thank you. I also wanted to ask this because this week, there was a high-profile resignation of a director of National Counterterrorism Center. Now, I want to be clear from the outset. I've communicated directly with President Trump, my support for Operation Epic Fury, and I was very not only disappointed, but how inappropriate this letter was. And I want to read a statement and get your personal assessment, whether you agree or disagree with that. And that's this. Early in this administration, high-ranking Israeli officials and influential members of the American media
Starting point is 00:54:12 deployed a misinformation campaign that wholly undermined your America First Platform, and pro-war sentiments to encourage a war with Iran. This echo chamber was used to deceive you into believing that Iran posed no imminent threat to the United States and that you should strike now. There was a clear path to a swift victory. This is a lie and is the same tactic these really used to draw us into a disaster. Iraq. Okay, right there. He said a lot of things in that letter. Ultimately, we have provided the President with the intelligence assessments. And the President is
Starting point is 00:54:47 elected by the American people and makes his own decisions based on the information that's available to him. But do you agree with, does that statement he made blaming Israel concern you? Yes. Okay, so watch this. Go back from, go back 20 seconds from the moment she starts talking on what she says. Tulsi's a pro. Oh, I love. And look, but you have to realize what's going on here, Vinnie.
Starting point is 00:55:09 Press play. Listen, what's going on here? He said a lot of things in that letter. Ultimately, we have provided the president. with the intelligence assessments. And the president is elected by the American people and makes his own decisions based on the information
Starting point is 00:55:25 that's available to him. We gave you the information. You make the decision. Right, pause it right there. Pause it right there. Because she's asking that follow-up. Go back when she starts following out with the question right there, Pless.
Starting point is 00:55:35 So watch her answer. Does that statement he made blaming Israel concern you? Yes. What does that mean, yes. Concern you could mean, yes. me. So, but yes could mean I agree with them. Of course. Right. She's finally, yes means I'm not.
Starting point is 00:55:54 It's a vague yes. So she may resign in the next few days. I wouldn't be surprised if she's next and she resign. I don't think she will be fired. I think she will resign. Okay, I think she'll step down in the next few weeks, maybe. And by the way, my guesstimation, my gut feeling of her resigning, 20, 30%. Okay. That's still a high number. Oh yeah. That's pretty high. And let me tell you, what else happened yesterday, which is kind of weird. Story comes out with J.D. Vance now saying, dropping stories out there to people, which is what?
Starting point is 00:56:26 Hey, I'm not going to run. Have you seen this? Rob, can you see, can you verify this if this is true or not? Is story of from the AFP post news saying that
Starting point is 00:56:42 J.D. Vance is considering not running for president in 2028 due to family priorities. Okay? Did you, did you guys see this or no? You sent it in the podcast. Yeah, I'm not going to run in 2028. Do you see anything coming up, Rob?
Starting point is 00:57:01 Yep, right there. Okay. The decision to keep J.D. Vinson was deeply in the scenes. No, that's this one, Rob. It's, it's a, it's a just, it's, it was in the, it's, it's, it's, it was in the pop right there. You just had it right there.
Starting point is 00:57:12 Go back to Twitter. Was the next story. Kind of, no, not there. Can I read it for you? Yeah. No, I have it. Rob has it as well. I just want him to find it.
Starting point is 00:57:20 I texted to him this morning. So if you go to the right there above it. Oh, yeah, it was the first thing you text. Jay-D. Vance is considering not running for president in 2020 due to family priorities. This is 18, 11 hours ago. Vance will discuss this matter with his family to decide if the timing is right. If wife Ushah is currently pregnant with their four child, other speculations suggest that Republican polling shows strong push from Marco Rubio and causing Vance to reconsider political environment strategist's cautioned that a heavily contested primary
Starting point is 00:57:51 followed by a general election loss as VP could potentially decimate Vance's future ambitious as the primary and high. So if you run and you lose in the primary to Rubio and you're the vice president, that's a pretty heavy thing right there to happen. So to me, where does all this go? The alliance, Tucker, Joe Kent, probably Tulsi. If Joe Kent is your direct report, you're probably part of that camp as well. I think so. Then you have probably Massey, and you have a small little dotted line to JD Vance. So I think what just happened with Joe Kent is the nuclear bomb to put a divide between them.
Starting point is 00:58:36 And I know yesterday, the press secretary who does a phenomenal job, she got up. And she said, to all the people that are saying stuff that's going on with Tulsi, shame on you and whatever. You know, she kind of defended her while Tulsi is standing behind her. But let's not get a twist. Tulsi's very ambitious. Oh, yeah. Tulsi's very ambitious, and she doesn't see herself as just having this job. That's the one, Rob, I think.
Starting point is 00:59:00 Is that it? Yeah, play the clip? I think who is saying that, that she would release this to try to boost her standing with the president? Who has said that? Well, the president has publicly undermined her when it came to Iran. He said she was wrong. He told me that she didn't know what she was talking about. That was on Air Force One on camera.
Starting point is 00:59:15 The only people who are suggesting that the Director of National Intelligence would release evidence to try to boost her standing with the President are the people in this room who constantly try to sow distrust and chaos amongst the President's cabinet. And it is not working. I will just answer your question directly. I am with the President of the United States every day. He has the utmost confidence in Director Gabbard he always has. He continues to. And that is true of his entire cabinet who is all working as one team to deliver on the promises this president. Does anyone else have...
Starting point is 00:59:46 You can pause. She may be one of the best ones ever. Now, obviously, I can't see she's the goat because we all know Karin-Jean-Jean-Pier's the girl. We can't ever undermine her... She's really, really good. For her to read off the papers, everything was written to her.
Starting point is 00:59:59 The chat, GBD Press Secretary that we had, Karin-Jean-Pier, but I think something's going on here and I think goes all the way to the top. By the way, can you verify this? Did Joe Kent vote for Bernie Sanders? Yes. Did he vote for Bernie Sanders?
Starting point is 01:00:12 Was he a Democrat until like 2021 or something like that? He voted for Bernie. Until 2021, Joe Gant was a registered Democrat. In 2020, he voted for Bernie Sanders in the Democratic primary. Vinny, do you see this? That he voted for Bernie Sanders
Starting point is 01:00:25 and the Democratic primary. He switched to the Republican Party in 2021. Oh, so that's very recent. Very recent. So did Tulsa. And not voted for Biden. He voted for a socialist. Not Biden.
Starting point is 01:00:38 So this isn't like Tulsi or this isn't like voted for Bernie. Adam. And also apparently voted for Bernie in 16 when he was the... Right, right. But... So with this Joe Kent, so the first thing I thought of when I heard, well, Joe Kent said something about Trump was,
Starting point is 01:00:57 who's Joe Kent? I mean, let's face it. We study politics. I've been actively studying politics for at least a decade. We've been doing the show for six years. I've never heard of this person. Have you ever heard of him before this situation? the name didn't ring a bell to me.
Starting point is 01:01:14 You can't. So I want to know where you're going with that. Because to me, you don't get the job, the director of national counterterrorism, without being somebody. No doubt. Yeah. You know, the vetting process should come into question.
Starting point is 01:01:28 But at the end of the day, we're saying, do you trust some guy you've never heard of or the president of the United States that all four of us has voted for? To me, it's 100% versus zero. now let's go deeper of who this person is though we're not just going to dismiss him and say can't trust anything because i don't know you okay let's go a little deeper apparently he did vote for burney in 16 then then vote for him in the primary then there's even trump tweeted hey this is what this guy said two years ago complete iran hawk and now he's this iran dove and then it's
Starting point is 01:02:06 basically fizzled down to yeah yeah trump's controlled by Israel. Tell me where we've heard this before. So to me, at the very least, he's flip-flopping, he's impressionable, but at what point, how did this happen? So two quick stories. I used to have one of my best friends' younger brother. Whenever I would see him, he was somebody new. I was like, oh, what's up, dude? How are you? He's like a little skater kid. The next time I see him, he's a little gangster. Next time I see him a few years later, he goes, Yeah, I'm actually becoming a rabbi. Coming a rabbi.
Starting point is 01:02:43 What? See him a few years later. He goes, no, I stop being a rabbi. I'm a teacher now. And then I see him recently. He's like a Jewish kid, but he's pro-Palestine. I go, listen, at what point are you just completely confused with who you are and are completely impressionable by the world around you?
Starting point is 01:03:02 To me, that's Joe Kent. He's served in our military respect. But you're voting for Bernie. Then you become MAGA. Then you become this Iran. Hawk, then you're this Iran dove, and now, because apparently his wife is very, very, very anti-Israel, his new wife, he's now accusing the Trump of being a BB puppet. How many times have we heard the Putin puppet thing? And what did you say about the puppet strings with Elon? That's just the latest
Starting point is 01:03:32 iteration with this. Last thing about Joe Kent, you know this is his second wife. Did you know this. His first wife, God bless her, rest her soul, was killed by ISIS in Syria. In I believe 2019, his wife was killed by ISIS in Syria. Nothing to do with Israel. His new wife, the latest wife, it's only been two years, is vehemently anti-Israel. So I think he's gone through a lot. I think he's confused. I think he's under major duress and stress. He's flip-flopping on issues. He's obviously had some major issues in his life.
Starting point is 01:04:14 And they say, who's the last person in your ear? The last person in his ear now is this Max Blumenthal, far-left, isolationist, anti-Israel woman. And that's the latest recreation of whoever Joe Kent is.
Starting point is 01:04:29 My final thought is this. Joe Kent himself is here today, gone tomorrow. and Trump and MAGA are stronger than ever. Have you seen what Trump's rating is within MAGA? Have you seen that, Pat? Yeah, you're going to pull it up, Rob. It's insane.
Starting point is 01:04:43 I had to like, when Harry Enton said the number, I said, that just can't be true. Watch this, folks. It's Harry Enton's yesterday doing a poll. Go ahead. Yeah, you know, sometimes you look at the polling data, and there are numbers that just jump off the screen at you. And this is one of those.
Starting point is 01:05:00 Because just take a look here. MAGA GOP view of Trump, approve. 100% if you are a member of MAGA and the GOP, you approve of Donald John Trump. Zero percent say that they disapproved. You don't have to be a mathematical genius to know you can't go higher than 100%. He is the 19172 Miami Dolphins. Okay.
Starting point is 01:05:25 Look at the fine print. 6631 among non-Maga. So that means Republican sides. non-Maga, he still has two-thirds of them. Correct. That's right there. When they say MAGA, they mean the Trump's base. Like guys like you. The hardcore on MAGA 2.0.
Starting point is 01:05:44 But basically, listen, you do an Instagram poll, you ever done an Instagram poll? I could say, hey, do you want me to give you a million dollars or do you want me to kick you in the balls? You're going to still have 2 to 3% that's like, are those my only choice? I'm going to take that ball kick, buddy. You do not get 100% consensus on anything.
Starting point is 01:06:03 Yeah. So let's just call that 98%. That's where MAGA is with Trump. They're not leaving Trump. The guy they've known to be the president and the leader of their movement for 10 years, for some guy they've literally never heard of. Nice try, buddy. We need to step back and look at something in Washington.
Starting point is 01:06:22 The history of leakers in Washington have come from intelligence communities and people that are undermining this president or that president. one of the most famous leakers, if you know your history, was during Watergate. And Woodward and Bernstein referred to it as Deep Throat. Now, Deep Dote's got terrible connotations because it was the name of a... Tom. Of a porn film in the 70s. Tom, let's just stay on politics and Watergate.
Starting point is 01:06:50 Woodward and Bernstein referred to it. I'm so sorry, Pat. You know, the guy, I don't know if it shows it here, but the guy who was eventually exposed to a bend deep throat, which was the guy that was leaking to Woodward. Martin Bernstein, Mark Felt, who was deputy director of the FBI. And so now you've got a guy inside the intelligence community that was leaking to a major member of the media. This is the way it works.
Starting point is 01:07:17 Who was the member of the media? Tucker Carlson. Oh, interesting. It's kind of a media voice. Call him what you will. He's a member of the new media, the alternative media that we're part of. We're part of the podcast that people trust more than they trust. regular. But you think about that. And also, do you know what happens in October? On October of
Starting point is 01:07:36 26? Tulsi celebrates her second anniversary of being a Republican. Remember, she switched right before the election. Happy anniversary, Tulsa. I think I don't, I don't know what's going on, but people are selecting teams and teams are becoming very obvious. You know, something that Pat said two years ago, something very strange will happen and you'll see alliances form. and some of them will surprise you. You predicted it. And you didn't say who and when, but you said, guys, when things happen like this,
Starting point is 01:08:09 alliances become visible that maybe were invisible and alliances get made. Can I show a question? If J.D. Vance doesn't take family time off and actually, which I don't believe, I think he's going to go against. Well, he better carry up and make a decision. Do you think he would have, like, a Joe Kent as vice president?
Starting point is 01:08:26 What? That's the worst combination for him. Would it be? Because he is Joe Kent. So why would you have a Joe Kent? 10. J.D. Vance's best pick for vice president is Ron DeSantis. Best pick. He needs to get somebody that's a true conservative. J.D.'s not. He needs to get somebody like he needs a Mike Pence type. Okay. A safe, full-on conservative is who he needs. He has to widen the lane. Yeah. Remember,
Starting point is 01:08:49 Trump for 2016, Pence was the right pick. Trump for 2024, J.D. was the right pick because who he needed in 2016 was a traditional conservative rhinos, all that stuff. And they got it with Penn. evangelicals and what he needed in 2024 was a technocrats and he got it with jd yeah so you have to realize it's a very very different strategy so for jd if he runs joe kent 100% you're losing no the horrible pick together joe kent is here today gone tomorrow i don't think we'll ever see this guy again right when everybody said michael albinati michael abanity yeah of yeah of course that's what joe i don't know if joe kent and what he's going to end up by the way joe kent you know i'm just curious if he if this stuff if he did this stuff oh he's in deep trouble
Starting point is 01:09:31 And they have it. He's getting arrested. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Just so, you know, if he did, I'm not saying he did. Yeah. If he did, he's getting arrested. What's worse is if he went to Tulsi and cleared the tweet with Tulsi and J.D. Vents.
Starting point is 01:09:48 Oh. If he did that. No good. This is not just bad. This is horrible all the way to the top. Yeah. So that's what I'm saying to you. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:00 That AFN news? Who was that? AFP news. Are they ever credible source? I don't know who they are. They share a lot of stories, and who knows? Well, I'll say this. One story is not enough to draw any conclusions.
Starting point is 01:10:13 If you start seeing this story pop up on different media outlets about J.D. Vance, about taking some time off, that's when there's smoke, there's fire. I think you'll find some credibility there. This is the first and only story of this kind, is that right, Pat, that we've seen? Yes. So I think it's a little too premature to. go that path? I mean, he doesn't have to make any decision. I actually agree that it's, it's a very premature to go that path, but, you know, it is what it is. It is something that's going on. And if you look at the odds, Pat, where's Rubio versus Vance in terms of the Calci?
Starting point is 01:10:46 Go to Calci? Let's take a look at Calci right now. People. I want to say that, that Rubio is now surpassed Vance. Rubio, not yet. Not yet. He still. Okay, he's closing in on. He is. Nine points. And that's for the Republican nominee. Do you have for who would like be president? To get past the primary. How closely you think J.D. is watching this? Oh, what do you mean?
Starting point is 01:11:12 That's every morning. How close do you think their team is watching this? Oh, big time. Look at that. Look at it. It's a three-way tie. If you scroll down, Rob, if you see it, yeah, Bing, Bing, there you go.
Starting point is 01:11:21 The fact that Gavin Newsome. JD's gone up in the last couple days. What a bunch of people. And Rubio's gone down the last couple days. Yeah, it'll fluctuate. I mean, the volatility of it. You know what I think will be the tipping point for Rubio? My opinion.
Starting point is 01:11:33 In the next you said three to six months, Iran's going to be done. Let's just say that. Who's the next piece on the chessboard? Cuba. Cuba. Who knows better of what's going on in Cuba than Marco Rubio? Nobody. No, if he, we've seen these memes of Rubio sitting there.
Starting point is 01:11:51 He's the president of Venezuela. He's the Ayatoll of Iran. Next thing you know, he's going to be the dictator of Cuba. I think that has a lot of weight. Well, let me read this next story. Pentagon asked White House for $200 billion, as Trump considers deployment of thousands of troops for next phase in war with Iran. Tom, I'm coming to you with this one here. Rob, is that it?
Starting point is 01:12:14 Yes, sir. Go for it. There was a report last night that the Pentagon asked the White House for $200 billion for Iran war supplemental. Can you confirm this and can you explain why a package this large is necessary? Well, first of all, none of this would have been possible without Midnight Hammer, without that audacious. mission with very clear goals that did obliterate their ability to enrich and the capabilities they have in those facilities. So it created the conditions for Iran to step forward and say, okay, you can reach out and
Starting point is 01:12:43 touch us like that in our nuclear ambitions. You can see that we're still trying to do this. Let's make a deal. And the President Trump put our two best folks on it, Steve and Jared, and they worked diligently, earnestly. I watched it to try to pursue that deal. And ultimately, I think the whole time Iran sort of said, well, we'll talk as we build more missiles.
Starting point is 01:13:01 And as we build more UAVs and we create this conventional umbrella so that if we chose to, we could try to reconstitute the program and sort of naively thinking that President Trump wouldn't do something about it. And that's why, as Secretary Rubio has said, and I've said, it's the conventional umbrella that was growing and growing and growing that was meant to protect that nuclear capability. So you had to address both what happened with Midnight Hammer and what happened with that as well. As far as $200 billion, I think that number could move.
Starting point is 01:13:31 obviously. It takes it takes money to kill bad guys. So we're going back to Congress and our folks there to ensure that we're properly funded for what's been done, for what we may have to do in the future, ensure that our
Starting point is 01:13:47 ammunition is, everything's refilled and not just refilled, but above and beyond. Yeah, so Tom, thoughts. So here's what's going on. The House Representatives U.S. House has what's called the power of the purse. And if you look up United States Congress, power of the purse, you can find all the descriptions of it.
Starting point is 01:14:05 Don't need to do it now. Take my word for it. That's the way our government works. So you run a business. You go to a bank, Benny. The bank says, I'm sorry. I don't like your business, so I'm not going to loan you money. So, and you're like, well, what do I do?
Starting point is 01:14:21 Well, you go to Dad. Hey, Dad, I can't get a loan from the bank where businesses normally get a loan. Will you give me a special loan to do it? That's exactly what is happening right here. If they need 60 vote difference, Pat, to avoid a filibuster, and a filibuster is where people are just stalled. You know, it's just basically just when you see filibuster, just think of it as your mom and dad are just yelling at each other constantly and nothing is getting accomplished and no decisions being made. That's a filibuster. And so to avoid a filibuster, it needs 60 votes.
Starting point is 01:14:53 And Pat, guess what? They're saying they took a poll. They looked around. Rand Paul is leading a group of Republicans saying don't vote on war funding. Don't do it. So they don't have the 60 votes in a Congress. So normally you go, you say, hey, we need some more, and this is what we're doing, and can you give me a hand? Nope. So they're going to the White House. So what the reporter is saying is, is the Department of War going to the White House to get a special appropriation and a special access to funding to continue the war,
Starting point is 01:15:26 which is up to $3.7 billion or $900 million a day, something like that, even more now, is he going to do it? Because, Pat, they can't get it from Congress. Congress isn't going to let him. And so that's what's going on. And that reporter was trying to kind of corner Hegseth to say, but Hegsus wouldn't say it. He said, well, it takes money to kill bad guys. What she wanted Hegs says to say, yeah, we know our Congress.
Starting point is 01:15:56 is against it, so we're going to get it through White House special appropriation. But he didn't do that. He gave that little speech. I'm just going to make a prediction. I'm not watching the movie, but I'm just going to tell you how the movie ends. Trump's going to get the money that he needs to finish this for. One way or another, you know, like he said, we're taking Greenland. We can do this the easy way or the hard way.
Starting point is 01:16:20 What we're doing in Iran is going to take a handful of months. You know, some might say three months. I might say six months. I certainly think it'll be finished well before the midterms, one way or another. But they're going to get funding. They're going to finish the job. And then they're going to rely on allies in the Middle East, Israel,
Starting point is 01:16:39 and the Gulf countries to actually step up and finish this job, even if the U.S. is back in domestic peripheral. Easy to get $200 million. Why don't they just go to $200 billion? Easy, $200, whatever. A couple hundred, just even $10 billion, go to freaking. in Minnesota, go to the Somali pirates, start getting some of that money. All the fraud that Nick Shirley is exposing in California.
Starting point is 01:17:01 I mean, we have the money getting frauded out here. They could easily find that money and use it for war instead of all these hospices that nobody's in and all these people driving freaking Lamborghinis and, you know, Mercedes and Beemers, which is, by the money is here. It's just where you're going to grab them. You're talking about the domestic waste, fraud, and abuse. Oh, yeah. What about the international?
Starting point is 01:17:22 We can go to Ukraine and see Zelenskyy, if he's got any. a couple bucks yeah but yeah you give me money give me money pat you think this is going to pass you see this being an obstacle into the war with iran or what do you foresee i'll figure out a way to get it but i if i'm a democrat guess what i'm thinking right now i got leverage to make a bunch of asks yeah period so guess what oh you want money no problem boom boom boom boom so they're going to have to make some uh just like funding de jess they're going to they're going to have to make some concessions and these concessions right before the midterm elections, a lot of leverage for these guys.
Starting point is 01:17:57 So I trust they'll do something with it. We still have a couple stories. One of the clips I've got to show you guys with this lady who is crazy, crazy, you know, crazy what she does to her husband and her kid, but we'll go to that later. Let's go to Mark Wayne Mullen, Rob. So Mark Wayne Mullen, who is announced that he is replacing Christy Nome. He is going through his hearings.
Starting point is 01:18:19 There's a lot of different clips. Rand Paul, there's a moment he gets emotional, Rob, if you want to play this clip with him and Rand Paul, that's a good one right there. Go forward. Locations led to an infection in the space between my lung and chest wall. I spent a week in the hospital having the infection lavaged every six hours through a chest tube. Recently, Senator Mullen, if you have time to listen, you were confronted by constituents that were angry because you voted against my amendment to stop all funding for refugee welfare programs. Instead of explaining your vote to continue these welfare programs for refugees, you decided to transfer the blame. You told the media that I was a freaking snake and that you completely understood why I had been assaulted. I was shocked that it would justify and celebrate this violent assault.
Starting point is 01:19:08 That caused me so much pain and my family so much pain. I just wonder if someone who applauds violence against their political opponents is the right person to lead an agent. that has struggled to accept limits to the proper use of force, being confronted by your constituents. Does he respond, Rob? There is a- Does Senator Molling your constituents? Is there a response there, Rob, or no? Right here. Okay.
Starting point is 01:19:36 Chairman made calling me a liar. Sir, I think everybody in this room knows that I'm very blunt and direct to the point, and if I have something to say, I'll say it directly to your face. If you recall back in my house days, we actually did have this conversation, because of remarks that I've made. You were in a room. I simply addressed that I said I could understand because of the behavior you were having,
Starting point is 01:20:00 that I can understand why the neighbor did what he did. As far as my terms of the snake in the grass, sir, I work around this room to try to fix problems. I've worked with many people in this room. Seems like you fight Republicans more than you work with us. I did address those remarks. I did explain your gimmicks by the amendment you put forth. And as far as me saying that I invoke violence, I don't.
Starting point is 01:20:25 I don't think anybody should be hit by surprise. I don't like that. But if I do have something to say, everybody in this room knows I'll come straight to you. I'll say it publicly and I'll say it privately, but I'll never say it behind your back. So for you to say, I'm a liar, sir, that's not accurate. And I got proof to say that because you have spent millions of dollars in my campaigns against me. Because we just don't get along. however, sir, that doesn't keep me at all.
Starting point is 01:20:53 He just don't get lost. From doing my job. I can have different opinions with everybody in this room, but it's secretary of homeland. Listen, I like both of them. It sounds funny. I really, I think there is a place for Rand Paul because he kind of gives the story that you don't think about sometimes. But I also like, you know, Mark Wayne. I do.
Starting point is 01:21:11 I think he's tough as well. But there's also another clip, Rob, where he gets emotional talking about the president. I think you have that as well. He tells the story where he gets. It's emotionally, go for it. In communities across Canada, hourly Amazon employees earn an average of over $24.50 an hour.

Starting point is 01:21:59 It's not about President Trump, it's about my son. So my son was a really world-class athlete in January 17th of 2020, which mind you was an election year. He had a really serious brain injury. Woke up 26 hours later, he's a different kid. We almost lost him for 26 hours. He had an extremely low pulse. There was a time they thought that they lost his pulse altogether. And when he woke up, he was just different.
Starting point is 01:22:32 I mean, here he had a world-class athlete that wrestled all over the world since he was 12 years old, and he couldn't touch his nose. He couldn't walk without shoveling his feet. He had short-term memory loss. He couldn't control his muscles. Couldn't add five plus three. He was in high school at that time. Had to learn how to read, walk, everything. And the president found out about it, and he gave me a call immediately.
Starting point is 01:22:53 And one thing that the president joked about was, he said, let me get this straight. He doesn't know who you and Christy are, but he knew I was because the only question you got right is who the president was. And he said, Trump with his cocky grin on his face. And the president didn't understand the severity of it, but he heard it in my voice and immediately he went to work. He, I told him we had to get to Bakersfield, California, to the center for neural skills, which is one of the best neural rehabilitation places in the world. And, um, and the president offered us in his plane, his personal plane. This president of the United States. And the, and I said, sir, we can't fly.
Starting point is 01:23:26 We got to drive. we get there and he called almost every day for two weeks checking on Jim and then he says i'm going to come see and now this is the middle of the election this is beggarsville california really not an area he's got to go campaign he took the time to come up there and and see and see Jim and the the center told us that the the short-term memory loss would something would trigger it some big event would eventually trigger where he'd start retaining stuff until then he was still having issues and the president arrived in course there was cameras and everybody around and of course no other media ever talked about it,
Starting point is 01:24:01 which is funny because the president called him on stage and talked to him. And then we went to the back. If you want to watch the rest of it, it's a very emotional story he says about. These are the stories you don't hear about with the president, what he does be on closed doors. Anyways, he's being challenged. You know, Sean O'Brien, president of Teamsters sitting right behind him.
Starting point is 01:24:19 Vinny, how do you think this is going to end up? I think it's going to go through. I mean, you could see how the Democratic Party was losing their minds. They're like, you know, are you going to... Because at the end of the day, the reason the DHS and everything is shut down patent, the Democrats are losing their minds, it's the illegals. Let's not forget this whole thing. He's the Department of Homeland Security.
Starting point is 01:24:38 We were flooded with 20 million illegals, and the main thing, besides the sex trafficking and all that stuff, which I believe in my heart of hearts, and Alejandro Majorcas, was at the helm. It's all on him. Okay? He knows exactly what's the thing. the hell he was doing, not Joe Biden, Alejandro Majorcas and all those rats. It's
Starting point is 01:24:54 illegals. All the airports. Everybody's out there right now listening to this at an airport and there's a long line, like in Atlanta or LAX or anywhere. It's because Democrats are fighting for illegals to be able to vote in the elections. Full stop. Don't lie to yourself. Don't let
Starting point is 01:25:10 Hakim Jeffries or anybody try to blow smoke. That is it, ladies and gentlemen. And one thing I'm a little upset about that. They got rid of the other guy. This person is coming in. I hope it doesn't stop. Because if everybody's noticed, because Minnesota was fighting back and telling them, go fight the Gestapo and fight Hitler and two people lost their lives,
Starting point is 01:25:30 everything has slowed down. This mass deportation has slowed down, okay? And I'm sorry, I voted for the people that do not belong here to leave so that the people that do belong here get all the money, get all the support and everything that they need and all the safety. And no more of our freaking young girls across this country get raped and freaking take it advantage. all the negative stuff that's happening.
Starting point is 01:25:52 Okay? I hope he comes in and does his job and doesn't fall for the freaking left's rhetoric of, oh, you guys are Gestapo, all these people are good. No, no, the rules are the rules. You have to leave if you're freaking here illegally, and that's it. I just hope that because he seems like a tough guy, but the last tough guy
Starting point is 01:26:08 that was here got booted. Period. I think it's, I think it comes out of how. I see there the human side of them, and I just wish we could see the human side of each other, more often. And he was there, I think, being very, very honest about his experience with Trump. So seeing the man that people want to paint is this perpetual villain, you know,
Starting point is 01:26:31 what he was doing for that family and giving him encouragement to a colleague is tremendous. Now, for the position he is interviewing for, and he's going through congressional hearings. You know, there's this big game in Washington. And the big game is, you said these words, and we peel context away. And we just say, you said, these words on this date? Wait a minute. Were we yelling at each other on we were both on CNN? And there was a moderator where we're yelling at each other on a podcast where we were we on Fox? Where were these words saying what's the context? The game is strip away the context and accuse you of saying those words. And that is a little bit of what's going on there. And by the way, I respect both guys.
Starting point is 01:27:14 I respect Rand Paul. I respect Mark Wayne Mullen. But I look at it and I'm like, guys, you're just playing this for the committee. Do I think we need strong leadership for the border? Yes, I do. But how we were doing it previously had some serious problems. I wanted like everybody else, think about it, Vinnie. Do you know how many, you know what the most easiest place to find the illegal aliens are in the United States? County jails. Counties all over the United States have got people that have committed crimes that are there. Why doesn't DHS just say, hey, you know what? I'm not. I'm I'm going to help all the county jails with their budgets. If you're holding an illegal alien, we will take custody of him.
Starting point is 01:27:56 We'll look at what he did. And guess what? He's going back to wherever he came from. You do it that way, and it's a whole different visibility. Now you're out there saying, hey, the people that immigrated illegally, that were doing something wrong, we're going to get them out. Now you're doing that, and you're going to have the support of communities. How we did it was a major issue. And I don't need another guy with a flamethrower.
Starting point is 01:28:19 I need someone to methodically handle the problem and move the people out. But I like this guy's tenacity and I like his leadership. Well, let me ask you a question. Tommy, I thought that they were trying to do it. But Gavin Newsom and the... Oh, they were blocked. No, they were built. But they also had their own techniques.
Starting point is 01:28:36 No, no, I understand that. But Tom, for instance, I think he's competent, Mark Mullins to do the job. 1,000 percent. Is he going to be allowed to do the job? And the view of how they did it, Tom, you have to admit when the media, Not all of them, all in unison are saying, you guys, look at what they're doing, they're hitting them, and they're provoking people. Tom, it was a call to action. Who was the vice? Who was Minnesota's governor?
Starting point is 01:29:00 Tim Walz? Tim Walz, Ilhan Omar, and the whole Democratic Party was saying, go get in their faces, Tom, and they wanted this optic. They wanted them. I think they wanted these people to get killed. They were waiting for that moment. We talked about it. They wanted a new George Floyd. How you were that?
Starting point is 01:29:18 They wanted that woman that woman that tried to run down the officers in her car. They want those martyrs because they need those martyrs. Because when you don't have policy. He's asking you questions. Yeah, so Tom, who's for no. And I'm sorry to go you off. Whose fault is that? It's not homelynes.
Starting point is 01:29:32 It wasn't Christine Nome's fault. Christine Nome was given a directive, an objective. Go. You said you're going to kick these people out. Go do it. That's one of the worst jobs. Because the other Alejandro Mayorkas opened the door and said, come on in and sat there in Congress and goes,
Starting point is 01:29:47 The border is closed, lying to the American public, and he got pardoned. And, I mean, what did he get, Pat? Did he get pardoned or preemptive pardon? He's untouchable right now, okay? So I understand what you're talking about, but when you're not allowed to do the job, and then you have the media going to stop. You're saying, you're saying Tom is saying that? No, Tom was saying it looked really bad, but whose fault was that?
Starting point is 01:30:08 CNN and everybody was saying that they were him. I'm not walking back. I'm not walking back what I said. There were parts of it that looked really bad. There were other parts of it that it was completely confirmed. trived resistance with pre-printed signs, fully paid for it to organize, to walk down the street interfere with federal officers doing their job. I agree.
Starting point is 01:30:25 But there were also things when that was going on. It's like, wait a minute, can be smarter about this? We're being entrapped here by paid protesters. Can we be a little bit smarter how we engage them and what we do here? This is going to be used to create public sympathy. You know it was going to be used. When you walk into a field of workers picking strawberries and you just pick them up, right? that's going to get carried and look like something.
Starting point is 01:30:48 At the same time, my point was just a simple suggestion. What about all the illegals that were in county jails? What if you had taken them off? What support would you have gotten from sheriff, from police, from citizens? That's a very good point right there. Adam, where are you at? Well, I'm just going to take a step back here. And to me, this comes down to something very simple.
Starting point is 01:31:08 This is MAGA versus libertarians. And people like to throw that, that libertarian word. I'm a libertarian. Do you even know what that means? And I've done some research on this. First and foremost, this is a personal issue. They know each other. You know, you said you made fun of me.
Starting point is 01:31:26 You said it was okay. Hey, buddy. Actually, I did. Like, there was some personal beef going on right there. Beyond that, to me, Mark Wayne Mullen is like a, kind of like a badass, dude. He'll fight somebody. Then go grab a beer with you. That's why he's got Sean O'Brien sitting behind him.
Starting point is 01:31:42 And isn't the guy that was like, you want to step outside? buddy remember that clip want to go fight outside buddy give me a joke and then you have sort of like a professor type doctor type who's sort of ideologically pure and this comes down to what i would call maga versus the libertarianism libertarian is they have a strong ideology but they're like weak in reality who are the big libertarians you got uh dr ron paul you got thomas massey you got justin amash there's not a big libertarian movement obviously you ended joe jor jr jr jroman Organson's career. Then you had whatever the other lady was that was running. She did it to herself.
Starting point is 01:32:18 She did it to herself. To me, these are people who have this ideological purity, but then reality smacks them smack-dag in the face and they go, have a seat, buddy. People who are actually going to get stuff done are actually going to take over here. So to me, MAGA, you know, that you can go, you can argue the size and the role of government. You know, MAGA stands for peace through strength. The one thing I've learned about libertarians is they're just like stay out of everything. stay out of everything they want no conflict they want no issues they want no war here's the problem with that ran paul and libertarians sometimes war wants you sometimes there's people that say death to america sometimes there's people that are going to come across our border and try to rape and pillage
Starting point is 01:33:04 and kill our citizens by the way libertarians are radically open border so that's the crux of this issue this is for dhs is this not this guy's because becoming the border czar essentially above Thomas Homan replacing, what's her name again? Christy Noem. That's his role. So the libertarians have been radically, correct me if I'm wrong, open border advocates where this guy's like, nope, shut it down. So at the end of the day, it's this.
Starting point is 01:33:34 Ideologically, libertarians have all these great ideas. In reality, ain't none of these people getting elected for the highest office in the land, none of them. Yeah, and so we're going to see. We're going to see what's going to happen. I think he's going to get his job. What I want to know is if you pause it right there, who is the girl on the back left sitting behind Sean O'Brien? Ma'am, if you are single, folks, if you know if she's single,
Starting point is 01:33:59 I have an Assyrian friend named Vincent Oshana, who is very funny, very healthy, and again, that could very easily be someone's wife if it is. Forget about it. But if she's single, can you please Manette Vinnie and make that introduction if you want to Manette Vinny right there? And I think the only request I have is while I'm doing this, just please make sure she is, you know, because, you know, there are a lot of stuff that's happened to market right now where men are afraid of dating girls. A lot of things. Guys are afraid. Like, there's a lot of men in America last Sunday that were having nightmares.
Starting point is 01:34:35 True story. Guys went to sleep. Yes. I don't know if you guys saw what happened or not. Friends were texting. me middle of the night saying, can you please call me, I just want to comfort me. I'm like, not every girl
Starting point is 01:34:47 is like this girl from the Bachelorette. No, Pat, please. What if I marry somebody who seems sweet and all of a sudden they're like this? I don't know if you guys saw this or not. True story. This is the girl from the Bachelorette show. I think she, you know, who was telling me in the back? Alicia was saying she was on a Mormon show
Starting point is 01:35:03 and they're a Mormon husband and wife. I don't know what this is. Is that what it was? The secret lives of Mormon wives. Guys, to all the, to all the men, and I'm being honest, guys, if you're a man above 25 who wants to get married, but you're single right now, I want you take a break and not watch the next 60 seconds, because it may encourage you to not get married. We want guys to get married. This isn't everybody, but every
Starting point is 01:35:29 once in a while, you land them like this. Go ahead, Rob. Yeah, yeah, look at you. She got fired, by the way, immediately when this video went viral. This is full of abuse. Raise the audio? What? It's cool. Yeah. See, Taylor?
Starting point is 01:35:47 This is all you do. It's the only thing you know how to do. Holy shit. Watch what she does. The kid is sitting right there. This is TMZ. Let me go. Stop.
Starting point is 01:35:58 It's not a bad kid. Dude, leave me alone. Oh, my God. The kid's on the couch. The kid's on the couch. Your daughter is right here. Are you ready? No, another, listen.
Starting point is 01:36:15 She hit the kid in the head. Yeah. Like, what is going? So here's a question. Outside of just getting fired from ABC, what else? Is it a picture of her? Yeah, that's the girl to the right. Go right there.
Starting point is 01:36:27 That's the girl to the right. She got the crazy eyes. Oh, she got the crazy eyes. Yeah. Jeez. Gosh. I did not expect this from a reality TV star. You know, I just, I didn't see this one coming.
Starting point is 01:36:41 How do you process this, Vinny? I mean, it's like... It's just scare you a little bit. Oh, 1,000 percent, but just look at, like, look at the photo on the right. It's so, like, images and what people portray on social media or, like you said, I'm sometimes reality, I guarantee she wasn't like this on the show, but behind closed doors, and I'm so happy that he had the know-how to take out your phone and record the craziness. Because guess what?
Starting point is 01:37:04 If the cop showed up and he hadn't had that, she would have said he hit me and he's crazy. Let me see this. what does it say? Secret Lives are Mormon wives? So it's not more men. It's Mormon. More men. Not more men.
Starting point is 01:37:16 Well, the secret life of Mormon. So tell me, because I don't, obviously I don't watch a show stars reportedly under investigation for domestic violence. Jereper said,
Starting point is 01:37:22 but Utah, alleged both sides of an incident. It's unclear if the police are investigating the incident or a separate one. Paul is set to star in the season 22 of Bachelette who reportedly starts in three days. They just fired her. They just fired her.
Starting point is 01:37:34 And think about Pat, that poor, the kid that you guys heard crying of the daughter, Taylor, that that and I know this from experience that image that fight that moment will never disappear out of that kid's head mommy screaming fighting yelling throwing a chair and cracking me in the head like she needs help she needs she needs some well wow in a world of hollywood talent where
Starting point is 01:37:55 there can be maladjusted high maintenance you know under the influence all these things say what you of it all sorts of stories float around about talent that's how TMZ stays in business Somebody melts down like this and goes bonkers. I am so surprised. But you know what this is? This is disgusting. This is domestic violence. I'm going to call it what it is.
Starting point is 01:38:21 And you have a child sitting there. First of all, you don't fight in front of your kids. You fight quietly. Second of all, you don't get physical at any time in a marriage. And then third, you don't pick up a weapon. she picked up a chair as a weapon whether it's a chair a dish it doesn't matter what it is this is for me this is three strikes and i i cannot believe what you did and you know what else in this that child's going to grow up with the perpetuity of the internet and someday somebody's going to say to it hey wait a minute
Starting point is 01:38:59 wasn't that your mom i found this old old old old video and i saw your mom do this and now the kid has to answer for that. That is unfair to the kid. By the way, can you pull up her criminal record? If she has a record or not, 31-year-old, let's see, go to chat and just ask, what's the record? Like, is there a pattern? It didn't look like she's smiling with her eyes in it. Is there a pattern there? What is Taylor Rankies criminal record? Okay. She got those eyes on. 2023 arrest, main incident. She was arrested in February, 23, after a domestic incident with then her then boyfriend, assault criminal mischief, domestic violence, and the presence of a child. Reports say she allegedly threw objects, including a chair, and a child was present and possibly injured.
Starting point is 01:39:41 Allegedly. What happened legally? Prosecutors later pursued felony aggravated charges. She entered a plea, pleaded guilty to aggravate assaults, other charges. If she completed on something. And then outcomes and current status. She was placed on probation after around three years with conditions like no alcohol, drugs, no further legal violations. Whoops.
Starting point is 01:39:59 And then the new one. There's an open domestic assault investigation involving her and her same partner. No confirmed conviction from the, yes, you plead. I mean, so the question becomes patterns. Do you date somebody see these patterns, Tom? Like, do you think right now, if you're watching this, do you, can you see these patterns while you're in your court in her, while you're dating her? I think sometimes they cover it. This is why it's so important to meet the family.
Starting point is 01:40:27 This is why it's so important to meet friends. This is why it's important to see a future spouse in multiple contexts. They're on good behavior with you when you're going to dinner or going to a movie. They're on good behavior. So you're saying Star-O-Fight to find that if they have it. Well, yeah, your hair is really frizzy today. Like, really? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:40:47 Yeah. I like your hair. It's like the fifth most nicest hair cut I've seen on a woman today. I mean, something like that to kind of break the ice. But I do believe, though, Pat, when you go into this reality TV, it's an all you're you're not that's not who you're seeing you're seeing the person that she wants the world to see and vice versa guys do it too and it's you're on a reality show and you're trying to you know look good and proper and whatever but behind closed her sometimes this just happens
Starting point is 01:41:13 i don't know you don't see this coming all the time yeah to me listen it's so easy to judge when you see somebody like this you're like oh everybody else we walk on you know we're so perfect and all this other stuff the part like obviously throwing chairs crazy but when it gets to the kid and you're doing that, that's bad. Fights are going to happen, like just earlier today. I don't know if you guys are comfortable when he's saying this.
Starting point is 01:41:37 Adam and Vinny got into a big cat fight. Jake had to break apart. Humberto decided to get involved. And Rob says this is great content. Yeah. He grabs the camera, starts recording. And Tom in the middle of it for seven minutes, he's still talking about why that $200 billion dollar budget
Starting point is 01:41:55 that Hexed is asking for is not enough. Well, to war budget. And there was a fight going. You made a very good point. And the fact that in the middle of it, you were able to stay so locked into the story was so impressive. And Dan is just standing there making sure everybody is protected. We should have owned this. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:42:10 So protect it. I'm sorry about that, man. Yeah. But look, you guys handled it. Yeah. Well, it was because of. This is out of control. This is out of control.
Starting point is 01:42:17 Adam, I'll come to your last. There's so much going on here. I mean, look, if you're looking for dating advice, I'll tell you this. The number one thing you do not want it from a woman is a drama queen. Because life is tough as a man. I mean, we got to wake up and work every single day. We're fighting the demons. We're fighting the dragons.
Starting point is 01:42:34 We're getting out there. We're dealing with threats. I mean, we got Dan out here. We got our people around here. We know. And then you're going to go home and have more drama. Save that for your mama. You know, this kind of puts a little damper into the believe all women narrative.
Starting point is 01:42:49 You know, we can believe women, but not all women. We can believe most people, but not all people. Also, you know, you've talked about this before. police got body cams, if you're in a situation with a lady that you don't know that well or maybe you know a little too well, you might need a little one of these things
Starting point is 01:43:08 being like, hey, here's what's going on. And thank God he has that. You brought that up. If you didn't have that body cam or camera filming, who knows what would have happened here. Last thing I'll tell you is this. Everything's on the internet these days. Everything.
Starting point is 01:43:21 Backgrounds, social life, previous relationships, don't rush into anything and do your reconnaissance before you end up getting your ass with by this girl. Yeah. So in other words, like, wait till you're 70 to get married. Yeah. Don't do. Because then her right hook is really slow.
Starting point is 01:43:38 Don't. Be careful when you film yourself in relationships. Yeah. What was that, Tom? But by the way. Rob Blow dating tips. What a coincidence. You want to be an actress?
Starting point is 01:43:48 I have a movie camera. No. Okay. All right. All right. Deep throat reference. But by the way, honestly, like today, to be a bachelor. and to have money, and to have fame, to go dating.
Starting point is 01:44:02 You have to have so many different things to protect you. Can you imagine what it's like right now? Like, you have to say, say into the camera that you're open to the idea of what we're about to do right now when we go into my bedroom. Let them know you're safe. And I'm showing the door is open if you want to leave. You're choosing to stay here. Yes?
Starting point is 01:44:22 Yes or no. Yes. And please sign this agreement. If you're a tier one celebrity. You have to do that nowadays. They make women sign NDAs before they even show up in the house. If you're a Tier 1 celebrity and you're single, I'd have the lawyer standing right next to the bet. I'd be like, hey.
Starting point is 01:44:41 Well, move your hand there. Can you imagine? Case dismissed. She said, you know, anyways, I'll pause. Liability waivers pre-printed on the back of cocktail. And he's like, Your Honor, I was right there. I was present. As a matter of fact, I have the videos.
Starting point is 01:44:53 Objection? Objection, Your Honor. He never said that I was there. Oh, my God. You know, because what happens? And there's a Johnny Depp. Yeah. The Johnny Debs situation with the Amber Hurd.
Starting point is 01:45:02 He says, he says, you know, do you remember a time where you drank a pint of wine? A pint. Remember that one scene? Yeah. What do you say? Have you seen this? Yeah, he was like, just pull it up. Like this video calls for Johnny Depp.
Starting point is 01:45:17 A pint of wine. A pint of wine. Where is Johnny Debt? He's trying to get a 300 million dollars. Speaking of not believing all women. Johnny Depp, just type in wine, pint. Just type in. No, no.
Starting point is 01:45:27 It's too many words. So one, you just erase the other stuff. Yeah. It should come up with the court. A pint. Go a little bit more. Ah, man. Come on.
Starting point is 01:45:36 It's such a great clip. In court. He's in court. Put court. Put court. My apologies. Court room. Court.
Starting point is 01:45:44 It's not going to have it. It's such a great scene in court. It's like a pint. Where it's like so a pint. Why don't you do a little Johnny Depp impression? I'm not doing it. By the way, hey. Fake British accent,
Starting point is 01:45:54 hey, Disney. Disney. Disney. If you want. want to bring back any kind of favor with the people, pay Johnny $300 million to bring the guy, a megapine. That's the one. To bring him back. Disney needs to give this man $300 million to bring that show.
Starting point is 01:46:13 What is it called? Pirates of the Caribbean. Bring it back. Go ahead. And you may have been. Can we play this? You may have been drunk in that video, correct? There's a possibility of that.
Starting point is 01:46:25 You poured yourself up a megapine of red wine. A megapine. Correct. A megapoint. Yeah. I poured myself a large glass of wine. Right. I thought it necessary.
Starting point is 01:46:41 I felt it necessary. I felt it necessary. I'm with you, Johnny. I felt it necessary. What's up with Johnny Deppre? I don't know. Well, Pat, just really fast. But you get on 90 midlou?
Starting point is 01:46:55 Yeah, I'm going to get into that. Sorry, that was, it was a serial for all of us. What was the last word you just said about? there? No, but listen, you know, you know, there's only been one man who built the hospital he was born in, and he just died right now. Oh, no. Chuck Norris has passed away. Oh, man. You know he-Norris has literally passed away? Did you know that he counted, you know, he counted to infinity twice? Yeah, so impressive. Do you know, some are even saying allegedly he's going to show up to his own funeral? That's true. I also heard that Chuck Norris's tears cure cancer
Starting point is 01:47:30 But too bad he's never cried. You know that he once threw a grenade and killed 50 people and then it exploded? Man, man. He was our white Bruce Lee, Chuck Norris. He was. He was bad. He was a best man. You know, death once had a near Chuck Norris experience.
Starting point is 01:47:51 Yeah, I remember that. By the way, there's so many of those you can say. And like, you know who enjoys the Chuck Norris lines? Tico. I was going to sit and read every single one of them and just laugh. Anyways, may he rest in peace. How old was Chuck Norris? 86, I believe.
Starting point is 01:48:06 Wow. 86 years old. Hey, man, salute to Chuck Norris. Love that guy. Big time. Was born in mine, Oklahoma, but he died in Kauai, Hawaii. Made the man, the star of Walker, Texas Ranger, rest in peace. Okay, legend.
Starting point is 01:48:21 It's so funny because I just saw videos of him two days ago. I saw videos, I'm like, oh, wow, he's active. He's active. He's doing stuff. Anyways. Real name Carlos. Calito. His real name was Carlos. Ray.
Starting point is 01:48:34 Calito, his name was Calito Brigande. All right. Let's go to the next story. Next door I want to go to is New York. New York governor, Hockel, is now begging New Yorkers to go beg Republicans or other billionaires and millionaires that left New York to beg them to come back. And she forgot what she said in the campaign trail in 2022. So watch this clip, folks, and just enjoy it.
Starting point is 01:49:00 Go ahead. And we're here to say that the era of Trump and Zeldon and Molinaro just jump on a bus and head down to Florida where you belong, okay? Get out of town. Get out of town. Because you don't represent our values. You are not New Yorkers. But maybe the first step should be go down to Palm Beach and see who you can bring back home. Because our tax base has been a role.
Starting point is 01:49:26 Eroated. So I philosophically don't have a problem. It is like I have to look at the fact that we are in competition with other states who have less of a tax burden on their corporations and their individuals. And I would say remote work changed everything. There are people who could only work in an office in Manhattan and work in New York State. And they were captives to our state. They were going to stay.
Starting point is 01:49:48 We saw that that's not the case. I mean, you know, Wall Street, businesses looking at Texas, they're not going there because they have a nicer governor. I know that for sure, but they're going there because of the tax rate. Of course. We have to be smart about this. Do you understand the logic behind this? Like, hey, they're not going to Texas because they have a better governor.
Starting point is 01:50:08 They're going there because they have lower taxes, meaning I'm a better governor than their governor, but we have higher taxes. But this is New York. Be in New Yorker and pay the high taxes. And FYI, this old exodus that they said was not going to happen. Do you know what is a validation that they're eroding and people are leaving? Guess who knows about the data of people leaving in New York more than anybody else? What job you think it is?
Starting point is 01:50:31 It's Hockel. And guess what Hockel just said, New Yorkers? That are tax bases. The revenue is what? What's the word she said? Eroated. For some people that are part of the story that have an accent and English is their fifth language. Can we go look up what erode is?
Starting point is 01:50:46 Erote is a what? Gradually wear away. Gradually worn away by natural agents. Look at the third transatlose. Look at the third translation, the best one. Gradually destroyed. Wow. Gradually destroyed.
Starting point is 01:51:03 That's what's going on to New York under Mayor Mamdani, under Governor Hockel, and Mamdani wants to raise the taxes on estate planning on wealth, death tax from 16% to 50% from $7.1 million, down to $750,000. So he even thinks those of you guys that live in New York, that you're worth $750,000. you're worth too much money. You know what $750,000 is worth in New York City? Not a lot of money if you live in New York City. That's not a lot of money. And that's what they want to do. Can you imagine this concept, Tom? I can't understand this. What are you had with this when you saw Hoholson? It gets better, Pat. Please. So New York has a budget problem. And New York can't afford the welfare that it's going to owe. So to do that, they are flirting with a $30 minimum wage. If we just make the minimum wage $30, then some of these people won't be on welfare. They could just work at McDonald's. But then there was all these business owners that came out and said,
Starting point is 01:52:03 if you do that, I don't have a business. I can't do it. So it is basically, you know what, if Microsoft could somehow how to figure out how to break into the New York market and sell Excel, I think this would work. Maybe some Excel classes. Simple spreadsheets, because New York doesn't get the joke.
Starting point is 01:52:24 They have chased out the tax base. There is no money tree in the backyard, just printing money. That's over at the Fed, and that's in Washington, D.C., not New York. And they're going to do this. This is a, it's like you're in a two-sided clamp, right? You're in the garbage pit in Star Wars, only R2D2 isn't going to find the combination and make the compressor stop. By the way, you know what else has happened just yesterday?
Starting point is 01:52:51 Massachusetts announced that it had a critical deficit situation, for the last two years because Massachusetts enacted a heavy asset tax. And over the last two years, it has shown up. And it's right now showing up in Massachusetts. And they signed the, they sounded the alarm yesterday. Massachusetts. And while you're saying this, here's the councilment of New York saying we've got to raise minimum wage from 17 to 30. There you go.
Starting point is 01:53:17 Just watch this beautiful logic. There are over a million New York City workers earning $17 per hour. A full-time worker making 17 per hour brings home after taxes about $2,000 a month. $30 an hour is something council member Sandy Nurse says people can't afford to wait for. The wages are too damn low and the cost of living is too damn high. Under the current 17 an hour minimum wage, some New Yorkers like Joelle and Amazon worker have had to make tough choices. Then I had to choose each month if I was going to do groceries or pay bills.
Starting point is 01:53:58 If I was going to pay my phone or my internet. Nurses legislation would see a gradual increase to 30 an hour by 2030. A spokesperson for the mayor says they will review it. We know we're going to have to help everyday New Yorkers who keep this city moving. And so, yes, we need to tax the rich. He's like that one day that thinks yes to scream. wage to 30 in 30. Mac Rosenberg, 10-10 wins on 92-33.
Starting point is 01:54:28 There you go, folks. 17 to 30 bucks an hour, minimum wage. At the same time, Hockel is saying, please, go ask him to come back because we need them. And there's some millionaires that are okay with paying the taxes. But let's go get some of those guys. 123 billionaires live in New York City. Watch what's going to happen with that number. FYI, this exodus hasn't even started yet. This exodus hasn't even started yet.
Starting point is 01:54:54 This is just getting, this mass exodus of New York is about to get started. Guy said to me, he says, you know, we don't want these guys to come to Florida because we know what's going to happen when they come to Florida. They're all going to end up voting for blue and they're going to turn Florida into New York and this is what everybody keeps saying, right? But for decades, New Yorkers have been moving to Florida. It's not like it's a new thing. This next wave of people that are going to come, it's the people New York doesn't want to lose.
Starting point is 01:55:21 It's the people that have the money. It's the people that can say, you know what, babe, I'm done. We were planning on moving to Florida in five years. We got to do it now. We were planning on moving to Florida in 10 years. We got to do it now. Wait, wait, folks. Wait, Adam, your thoughts.
Starting point is 01:55:36 To me, this comes down to the difference between socialism and capitalism. So, you know, who's the famous New Yorker? Speaking of New York that once said that you campaign in poetry, but you govern in prose? I think that was Mario Cuomo, our friend Chris Cuomo's dad. So when Kathy Hockel is out, we don't need you, Trump, get out of here, go back down to Palm Beach. That sounds great on the campaign trail, Kathy. Right?
Starting point is 01:56:01 Where you're just doing bluster and rhetoric, as some say, and you're giving feelings and inspirational. Rhetoric. Rhetoric. Sorry about that, sir. Slogans. She's salinations. She's just a parodity of herself. But slogans don't pay the bills, as we know.
Starting point is 01:56:18 So when it's time to govern, like what she's doing now, she has what is known as a little bit of a math problem. So we got a budget of $5 billion, and we're short $1 billion. Why'd we kick out all the billionaires? She's got a math problem. Because when you're governing, it's not so much about slogans anymore. It's about budgets.
Starting point is 01:56:37 It's about data. It's about money. And this is the difference between capitalism and socialism. Socialism is going to give you all these promises. Capitalism is going to say, yeah, we don't have the money for that. Last point. I remember when I first started my show on doing men on the street stuff, I went down to downtown Miami.
Starting point is 01:56:54 There was a fight for 15 thing going on. It was all these low-skilled workers that, you know, worked at remedial jobs, and they were fighting for 15. And I don't know if that's passed in Florida yet, but it certainly passed. I think the fight for 20 in California. Now they're fighting for 30 in New York. Do you know what $30,000 if that's what minimum wages?
Starting point is 01:57:15 Sorry, $30 an hour, minimum wage. You know what that is here? $60,000. $60,000 for what? So I remember when I was doing these interviews, and they're all nice people. Mostly immigrants, barely speak English, working $8 jobs, $12 jobs.
Starting point is 01:57:33 I said, I started asking questions like, well, I know you want more money, but what are you doing to improve your skills? You barely speak English. Are you learning English? Are you working harder? I work two jobs. I work at two jobs.
Starting point is 01:57:49 That's great. Respect. Welcome to America. But are you learning? Are you contributing? Are you doing anything to help yourself or society? Or you're just looking for jobs and more money? And that's the premise here is that these people want more money.
Starting point is 01:58:03 And they're leaving a lot of times socialist, communist hellholes to come to America to basically say, give us more money. So capitalism is the way socialism is all lies. Well, I mean, you know that saying when people say, I hate to say, I hate to say, I told you so. I don't. How much I'm a tell you so. I absolutely love saying we told you so on this show we have said it on this podcast. I can't even how many times when the moment this started the moment they were even hinting at mom donnie. We said what he was going to do. We know what's happening with all the taxes with all the conge remember the congestion tax that she tried to do and I think was it Adams up rob that they tried to I don't know if it came back or not. But it's like, it's, and then all the useful idiots, all the people on all the podcasts, all the comedians going, no, we'll pay the extra this and we'll pay the extra that. Everybody's gone. And all the people that left, I think they took a line out of that song at him, that really good song by that band, InSink from the year 2000. And it said, yeah, it says, don't really want to make it tough.
Starting point is 01:59:09 I just want to tell you that I had enough might sound crazy, but it ain't no lie, baby, bye, bye, bye. Everybody's gone. Never heard of it. but they're all leaving. I even know family members. Tonight at 7 p.m. their performance at 50. They're in the living room.
Starting point is 01:59:23 Out of sick. But I know, I will not be with them. I have personal friends and I have family that are, are considering leaving New York because of how bad this place has gotten. And it's the saddest thing because New York was the best, bro. New York was the freaking everybody wanted to go. I just talked to somebody the other day that was like,
Starting point is 01:59:40 yeah, I went there just, I was there for a day and I changed my flight to leave. It was the best. That's how bad it was. Tom. Who's your favorite boy band? Speaking of boy bands. My favorite boy band. We're doing a boy band.
Starting point is 01:59:52 Who would you want to... I don't... I didn't have a favorite boy band. Tom, be honest. Tom, come on. I missed the bus. Chris Krox. Maybe you know,
Starting point is 02:00:00 Chris Koss. I missed the bus. Leonard Skinner. I miss the bus. You don't know. I missed the bus. Tom. And it was something that I would never,
Starting point is 02:00:08 never ever do again. Miss the bus. No, Tom's more like a... I can see it. Like a little bit, maybe. No? Tom's more like a cats in the cradle in the silver.
Starting point is 02:00:17 Spoon, little boy, little boy, and a man in the moon. Tom, that's more Tom. Anyway, great in sync reference. Thank you. More of a back street boy guy. But you're your bigger point, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 02:00:27 You know, I know a certain relative of yours, she can come live right next door to me if she brings that recipe for bazuki. Okay. She's not coming up in New York. Did he say bazooki? Bozuki, but it's Nazooka. I know Middle Eastern Tom and Bazooka. Nazooka.
Starting point is 02:00:41 Brin the recipe for Bazook. Isn't it great? Yeah. You know, I'm talking about your mama? Yeah, my mom's. Now, Zook. My mom and my son says. No, no, we've been joking for a while.
Starting point is 02:00:51 Okay, good. No, okay. She makes a big bag of it. On a serious note, we love you. If you stay with Tom when we do during the summer and you go watch one day in the morning, I go early just to see what he's blasting in the gym. Yeah. None of you guys will be able to guess what he was blasting the gym. None of you guys will be able to say it's 545 in a morning.
Starting point is 02:01:11 This guy's playing bone thugs and harmony. Murnum. And he's doing the murder. And he's doing the. And I'm like, I'm watching. He's got white feeder. I'm like, listen. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:01:21 With a bandana cock to the side. And by the way, like almost like. Yeah, what a fool? Yeah, it was like. Wake up. Wake up. Tom, you know, we did the first. He always.
Starting point is 02:01:29 It was. Tom, Crip walks. He does a Crip walk. No, no, no. Tom does Cholo Fitt. Oh, Tom does Cholo Fitt. I love. Remember Cholo fit old school 10 years ago?
Starting point is 02:01:37 How to say. Cholo Fee, fool. Let's go. Let's go to, let's go to, let's go to. All right. Let's play this clip, Rob. I mean, listen, can you imagine a reporter from Japan is asking a very serious question of your president? Oh, my God.
Starting point is 02:01:53 And out of all the answers, people are sending it to me saying, look what your president just said. I said, so I'm like, no, that's a yeah. You're like, no, listen, you know, what are you going to say? So here's the president, Japanese reporter is asking the president a question. He's got a beautiful yellow tie on. That's the golden. The prime minister of Japan is sitting there. And her facial reaction, her reaction, Vinny, when he gives.
Starting point is 02:02:15 gives the answer. But go ahead, play the clip. Of course, no, Japan and U.S. are a very good friend. But one question, why didn't you tell U.S. allies in Europe and Asia like Japan about the war before attacking Iran? So we are very confused about Japanese citizens. Well, one thing you don't want to signal too much. You know, when we go in, we went in very hard, and we didn't tell anybody about it, Because we wanted surprise. Who knows better about surprise than Japan?
Starting point is 02:02:50 Okay? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor? Look at her face. Right? He's asked me. No, you believe in surprise. I think much worse so than us. No, no, wait a minute.
Starting point is 02:03:03 Go back. Go back. Let's watch it one more time. Just watch her reaction. Go ahead, Rob. Look at her coil back. One thing you don't want to signal too much, you know. When we go in very hard.
Starting point is 02:03:14 And we didn't tell anybody about it because we wanted surprise. Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor? Okay? Right? Oh, you got that! He's Eskabe. Do you believe in surprise, I think, much more so than us?
Starting point is 02:03:34 And we had a surprise, and we did. And because of that surprise, we knocked out the first two days of the government. But, hey, as if that guy was alive and he didn't call him in town. he made himself laugh if you want to replay that you see he's like oh I just went there guys he's almost 80 he doesn't give
Starting point is 02:03:52 he doesn't care who knows better than Japan and you know what sneak attack gotcha this wasn't Zelensky this is the prime minister of Japan who is very diplomatic she's very honorable look at her decorum
Starting point is 02:04:08 and everything in there and she's just sitting there and it's like what is she supposed to say you put a That's a one on me. I mean, if he does this with Zelensky, I get it. But, you know, this is not the diplomat. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 02:04:22 I wouldn't have done it. We just had a whole segment about reality TV. Trump is the reality TV president. Cameras are rolling. So professional. He'll say things that any other person could not get away with. And by the way, I want to say, I could be wrong. Fact check it.
Starting point is 02:04:39 After this meeting, there's like, all right, we're on your team against Iran. I think after this meeting, they worked out a deal where she's like, all right, I'm on your team. So he can like make fun of you, poke fun of you, but then get you on to come along to his side. It's so funny, it's the art of the deal. And over the weekend, the reason she was here is over the weekend, she signed an energy deal. Rob, do you have the one with the five countries, the NATO, Germany, France, Spain, not Spain, but. Yes, it's a Fox News report here. Okay, go forward.
Starting point is 02:05:10 It appears to be a big change of heart from Britain, France, Germany, Holland, Italy, Italy, in Japan. We put out this statement a short time ago. We express our readiness to contribute to appropriate efforts to ensure safe passage through the strait. We welcome the commitment of nations who are engaging in preparatory planning. Sounds like 80s are coming.
Starting point is 02:05:27 Let it keep going. So it's just saying that, Rob, that they are now Tom, how big of a deal is this? This is a very big deal, because what it shows is that there's oil pain around the world, and that oil pain is stretching on to fertilizer. You guys can go
Starting point is 02:05:44 it up, but the spring fertilizer is needed and there's more than just oil out there in those fields. There's also chemicals. And chemicals are used to fertilize fields and we're in the middle of planting season, which is also European is in planting season. The whole West, getting ready to plant crops, it'll be coming up and you can't make those go faster. So everyone is coming together right now to open up the Straits of Hormuz because, Pat, it's
Starting point is 02:06:07 not just oil. We're also up against the clock on fertilizer for the spring seasons. We're up against the clock on natural gas for Europe, even though 60% of the national gas in Europe comes from the U.S. But it is a big deal that just days after Germany put this posture together that was pretty heavy, right? Pretty heavy posture. They turned around the other way, and now the band is together, which is very important. And I think it shows two things. You know, whether it's Wittkov, whether it's Rubio, whether it's Trump itself,
Starting point is 02:06:43 Our phone calls on diplomacy on the back end are working, and also the world is waking up to the fact that this can't be allowed to go on too far, and they're getting behind the guy who is leading and driving. I think it's a very big deal. Adam. Look, if you can just pull up the list of countries real quick that have signed on to this agreement? Holland, France, UK, Germany, Italy, and Japan. Okay, number one, how many of these countries used to be our enemy, Germany, Germany?
Starting point is 02:07:12 Germany, Italy, Japan, we've all went to war against all these guys now they're our ally obviously we know our relationship with Britain
Starting point is 02:07:19 So speaking of allies this is what allies do you step up you know we're questioning NATO right now Hey what are you guys doing here What are you doing for us You even have Mark Root Who's the commander of NATO I want to say
Starting point is 02:07:33 Basically saying in his thick European accent If you think we can defend ourselves Of America you're dead wrong Like America is the number one superpower in the world, and all these countries, whether they want to or not, are going to get on board. Why? How much money do we give Japan every year? Five billion dollars? We also have, I think, 50,000 troops located in Japan. Germany, same numbers. South Korea, a little bit less. Fifty thousand troops, four billion dollars. We're giving all these countries money.
Starting point is 02:08:06 We're protecting all these countries. And what we're saying is, how about a little help back for your number one ally? Huh, buddy? So if I need to bring you into the White House into the Oval Office, make a little sneak attack surprise. Pearl Harbor joke, I'll do what I got to do. But you're going to step up and look and lo and behold. Now they're going to help in the straight and Hormuz. Here's that clip of Mark Rout, basically saying, yeah, yeah, we need America. I will praise him and I don't mind him publishing text messages. And if anyone thinks here, again, that the European Union or Europe as a whole can defend itself without the U.S., Keep on dreaming. You can't. We can't. We need each other. And why do we need each other? I tell you. First of all, because also the US needs NATO. The US is not only in NATO to prevent the mistake after the first World War, not to re-engage with Europe. And then again, the long arm of history reaching out to the US again in the Second World War, as Churchill famously said in his speech in 1941 in the US Congress. They are also in NATO because for the U.S. to stay safe, and by the way, Arctic region is evidence here. They need a secure Arctic.
Starting point is 02:09:16 They need a secure U.S. and they also need a secure U.S. has every interest in NATO as much as Canada and the European NATO-NATO NATO allies. So I'll give them this. We both need each other, but the question is who needs who more? It's not even a question. It's not even a question. So, guys, you need us. Respectfully, we need you.
Starting point is 02:09:34 We're friends. We're allies. We're partners. We're strategic. partners, but don't get it twisted. Everyone's going to fall in line to America because we protect them. Remember the Finland guy at Davos? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 02:09:48 You don't know. I never said that. You just said that a few minutes. Yeah, you just said that. What about is your daddy? I'm going to wrap up with California, Newsom, and Nick Shirley. So Nick Shirley, when he comes to your city or state, everyone shivers. So can you imagine Nick Shirley, nice guy, okay?
Starting point is 02:10:02 Mormon kid. We love him. He's phenomenal. Good family, great family. all of them working together, the state of California, Minnesota, any of these states, they look at him as if he's like a mafia boss when he shows up. He's about to expose all of us. This is a 23-year-old young man, okay?
Starting point is 02:10:23 Is this Rob, him in California? Yes. Okay, and by the way, did you guys see what Newsom's office tweeted about Nick Shirley? Did you see that? We have to show it after this clip. And then did you see what Newsom's wife said yesterday? I didn't see what she said. That we all are on the spectrum of LGBTQ?
Starting point is 02:10:38 No, I want to see. Anyways, you guys got to see those two. An infetterman. Yes, yes, and then Federman went after them. So we'll wrap it up with California because we love California so much. But here's Nick Shirley. Go for it. Now let's go to another one that's even more concerning as kids are left all alone. Now we're the Jama Shukry family child care.
Starting point is 02:10:56 This place is not a shopping plaza. It's not anywhere near any place that looks like a place where a daycare would be. In fact, it's actually in one of these apartments. right here. So they're able to have daycares inside apartment buildings? Yes. So I've come across many of these. Some of these are on the third story of an apartment complex. It's only one bedroom and yet the capacity is for eight kids. We just arrived to the daycare. We have two kids out here.
Starting point is 02:11:23 I don't know if they're members of the daycare. There's no one, there's no oversight right here. Can we talk to your teacher? Is your teacher there? So this is the first child we've ever encountered at one of these daycares. at one of these daycares. There's two kids out here right now, and we're going to see if we can talk to the licensee. It is, according to this paperwork, Shukhri Jama. Can we talk to the adult? He's not here. Not here. Yeah. So you guys are all by yourself? Wow. No one's here. Wow.
Starting point is 02:12:01 So you guys are all by yourself. And this is one of many of the clips, Rob, right, that they're showing. Do you have any other ones or is that the only one? There's another one regarding registered hospices in California being used to... Let's see a little bit of this. Go forward. Are you guys the hospice consultants? Yes. Oh, can we talk to you guys?
Starting point is 02:12:21 About. I want to open my hospice. You want to open a hospice? Yeah. Okay. What was your name? My name's Nick. But I want to open up a hospice.
Starting point is 02:12:28 I understand, but we don't take care of that. Can I get some information? Do you want a number? Yeah, or give me a fly or something. And this is a hostage consultant. All right, so they stay they're open right now. They won't let us into the lobby. This is no way to conduct business.
Starting point is 02:12:50 We are too entrepreneurs trying to open up our own hospital. We were denied service by the potential fraudsters, and as we were leaving, one of the fraudsters started to leave from the back in a $200,000 Mayback. Where can we open a hospice at? We like to open up a hospice. Get a Mayback just like you. Now, this is how I can get a Mayback by opening up my own hospice.
Starting point is 02:13:11 Now, after seeing all the wealth that is being created from these hostesses, centers, I headed back to the original location where we found over 15 hospices in one plaza. I wanted to make sure it wasn't a fluke that Armenian mafia members were running the show and that there weren't just randomly $100,000 cars the day I went by. And this time, it was even worse. Sir, how are you? Good. So what do you think about all this hospice fraud?
Starting point is 02:13:31 Sir, you're in the cyber truck. Dude. Driving away, taking money from old people. Yet he's just driving away in a cyber truck. Why don't even answer any questions? Let's see. We have another rich person as well. that's getting rich off this hospice this guy's leaving as well so the two people that
Starting point is 02:13:46 walked out of holy angels they're in a brandy angel and a new BMWs how lucrative of a business is hospice I'm seeing a cyber truck here in a nice BMW it's good yeah because it looks like for instance guardian of angels that used to be here four point eight million dollars they build the state of California wow and how many clients do you guys have I'm just curious yeah you're getting paid pretty well right Bro, my parents, though. Do your parents run the hospice? No.
Starting point is 02:14:18 Who's that guy in the cyber truck? He's your uncle. So it's like a family business, don't the hospices. But why was he walking out of the hospice then too? Like these hospices, there's nothing inside of them. If it's not you guys, how come you're in the US, B&W in a cyber truck? I can only imagine what the guy is in charge.
Starting point is 02:14:36 Just all the other hospices? Do you like taking care of old people? Like, are you the one going out visiting the hospice patients, sir? Uh-oh. He's going to be the hospital. to do another point in turn. Yeah, you guys are in my fucking way. You could just go that way. What's the key to opening of a hospice if I want to open up one?
Starting point is 02:14:49 Because you're in the family business of a hospice's. If I want to open my own? What do you do for work here? What do you do for work here? Why? Oh, we're just looking around. We're seeing all these hostesses, so we're just curious. Well, I don't know.
Starting point is 02:15:05 I mean, he's good at what he does. You got to realize. He's very good at what he does. But Chris Cuomo doesn't think that he's a real journalist and he's not doing it. He said that today? He was on this podcast? No, no. Chris Cuomo sat here.
Starting point is 02:15:15 and said that what he is doing is not journalism, nothing's going to come out about it, which is, it's baffling for me to even hear because this guy is, he's exposed Minnesota. People have gone to jail because of his investigative journalism, actual journalism, not CNN journalism, propaganda sitting in front of a camera, lying to the American people.
Starting point is 02:15:34 If that isn't journalism, going out there, risking his life, how easy could one of these people go out to him and punch him in his face or stab him or shoot him? And he's out there doing actual work. hundreds of millions of dollars exposed. Minnesota has already arrested people. I don't know how deep the investigations are going to go, but this is blatantly obvious,
Starting point is 02:15:52 and it takes a 23-year-old kid, not somebody from mainstream media, to expose it, and it drives me crazy when I hear people like him say, oh, this isn't real journalism. Then what is it? I'm curious, so what is he doing? And why did it take a 23-year-old to expose it? Just curious, Tom.
Starting point is 02:16:07 By the way, here's what Newsom's office had to respond with. They said, hey, can I see your kids, as if that's Nick Shirley, right? Going into the daycare. Now, do me your favor. Go to the tweet, Rob. So I want to show how Nick Shirley responded to that tweet. So Governor Newsom's press office.
Starting point is 02:16:23 That's the real press office. You see the checkmark right next to it? On the political side? Okay. So go a little bit lower. Nick Shirley responds. He says, you do realize I'm trying to help America eliminate fraud and waste, right?
Starting point is 02:16:37 No need to try and make me look like a bad guy for exposing fraud. People are over it. start working for the people and not against them. 275,000 likes for what he had to say, Nick Shirley. And guess who's doing it now? CBS is now following his lead. CBS is now doing it in New York.
Starting point is 02:16:57 They got a bunch of different things. Everyone starts to realize we got to do it. Now, keep in mind, CBS is being ran by Barry Wise. She's like, look, if this Nick Shirley model is what they're doing, why don't we start doing it? I'll go on a couple thoughts on this, and then I want to show you guys with Gavin Newsom. She's sharing some wisdom with the rest of us.
Starting point is 02:17:13 Go ahead. Yeah, well, I'm a proud member of the Equality Learing Center, and Nick knows this. I'll tell you a funny story about Nick Shirley. You know, we were at the State of the Union. We were lucky enough to interview a lot of the GOP congressmen and women. I'm there interviewing all the people with John Kennedy and Lisa McLean, all these names. All of a sudden, Nick Shirley walks in the room. And it was as if like MJ walked in.
Starting point is 02:17:38 All the, I go, yo, what up, Nick? What up, Adam? walks towards me. Congress people stop doing what they're doing, start walking towards Nick. And what are they saying, though? Come to my state. You got to see what's going on here.
Starting point is 02:17:51 There was, I think the lady in California, young Kim, not Lil Kim, the rapper, young Kim, the politician. She's saying, come to California. He goes to California. So it's such a needed thing. By the way, shout out to journalists that do this.
Starting point is 02:18:06 Citizen journalists. By the way, James O'Keefe, leader of the pack. I met Nick Shirley at a James O'Keefe event. James O'Keefe is incredible. Incredible. Also, Nate Freeman in New York, respect to you. Yeah. Going to the communist, socialist Gaza rallies.
Starting point is 02:18:26 But these independent citizen journalists with a phone, a camera, and a dream are out there changing the world. This guy got, Nick Shirley got Tim Walz to resign and not. run for governor. Imagine what may happen to Gavin Newsom. Imagine what happens if waste, fraud, and abuse is found in all these other states. We have that video of the ladies saying, come to Ohio. So I become real tight with Nick. He's a great kid. I actually took him to his first Sabbath dinner, and then we went to a club, and he said, I just want to see club live. This is interesting. He goes, I don't want to party. He goes, I'm a virgin. I don't drink. I don't smoke. I said, you want to go in for 10 minutes?
Starting point is 02:19:12 Let's go in for 10 minutes. He knows this. He filmed the video. He saw it. He goes, okay, cool. We left. They're not going to get this kid doing anything weird or anything like that. And that's the thing that's going to happen.
Starting point is 02:19:23 He's doing the right thing. He has the right agenda. And all he's doing, like he said in that tweet, I'm just trying to help find the fraud. You should be thanking me. By the way, if you're watching this, Nick Shirley is on Meneck, then he actually gets back to people.
Starting point is 02:19:36 If you want him to, if you have anything you want to share, because remember, luck getting to him through email, Twitter, DM. He is right now. He posts something gets 10 million views. He's got tens of thousands of DMs, but if you want to get right to Nick Shirley, you can Manectam brought. Put the link to Nick Shirley in the chat
Starting point is 02:19:52 as well as the, what do you call it? Comment section and description, but go download the admonact and find Nick Shirley a message. This is one way of also supporting what he's doing and encourage him for the great work that he's doing out there. By the way, while this is happening, Gavin Newsom's wife comes out, She had something to say. Vinny was specifically directed to you if you want to play the clip.
Starting point is 02:20:14 This is Gavin Newsom. Okay. This is the first partner. This is direct message. Go ahead. Learning from same-sex couples. Go ahead. There's so much to learn from same-sex couples who have learned to communicate and who also
Starting point is 02:20:27 are like, well, look, you know, someone's got to do the care work in a same-sex male couple. Someone's got to do that. So I'm just going to do it. And this is like, and not be afraid or ashamed because it's part of being human. We're all on a spectrum, right? It's just how society kind of pushes us and pressures us into these limiting gender roles. But again, the folks on the far right, they're missing is just this, they're living in this silo, this evangelical conservative silo that ultimately is it's just pulling us back as a country to a time and a place where we don't deserve to be and we're not going to be. because honestly, young women and fathers of daughters are awake now and they're woke and they're not going to let us go back.
Starting point is 02:21:13 And so I have so much hope because of that. And obviously, California has a huge responsibility to lead. What the hell is she coming to first? What is she talking about? What the hell? I'm dead serious. I was just looking. Tom, I couldn't even.
Starting point is 02:21:30 Was she saying we have to get advice from gay couples? I honestly don't know what she was saying. They clipped it. There was three parts in there speaking. Like, Rob, I'm just, let me explain it to you, Vincent. No, I'm being dead serious. I'm going to explain it. Because, by the way, I know I can lie to you.
Starting point is 02:21:44 As she was talking, I was just thinking about, like, Gavin Newsom and the hands, because that's where my brain goes. But nothing that she said makes sense. She's trying to say that married couples need to take advice from gay couples about what relationship advice. I don't get it. I'll explain how I'll interpret it. She's basically same-sex couples. So two men, who's going to raise the children? who's going to go to work? Two women. Who's doing the household chores? Who's paying the bills?
Starting point is 02:22:11 Right? And she's like, we're all on a spectrum. We've got to figure it out. The thing that I felt so disgusting to me is that she used that as a way to attack God-fearing evangelical Christians who believe in the Bible and believe in God and Jesus. And she used that as an attack line as if they're the problem, Mrs. Newsome. Those are people, that believe in the Bible and believe in what a woman is and what a man is and maybe gender roles and the gender is not just a construct. So maybe it's you that needs to revisit your gender roles with your husband and not the people that are putting God first, country first, and their family first. You're on a spectrum. I'm going to leave opinion out of it. I'm going to go
Starting point is 02:22:56 to stats. Young people today, the current generation and the one immediately preceding them, So from the ones that are, you know, 12 years old, up to about 20 years old, the current two generations, there is more evangelical awareness and there is more turning to God and faith as a foundation for life than their parents and their grandparents. It is, there is a resurgent. And I believe it's because they are honestly looking for truth and they are looking for sanity and they are finding it. And you go take a look at the stats right now. you saw it with Turning Point USA of the percent of young people that are that are turning it's not what it needs to be but it's moving and what it shows you is that there are audiences out there that are just looking at the wrong thing and they're getting very confused by it and there's a lot of them out there but there's also kids that are i'm going to use the word waking up to the truth
Starting point is 02:23:58 and it's our job to ensure that we help cultivate more of that because there's a lot of people looking at, and this, this, as a potential first lady, just scares a hell out of me. Oh, and Tom, he's in first, he's ahead of Marco Rubio, and he's ahead of Vance. Because that's, don't get it twisted.
Starting point is 02:24:16 It's only, I don't see anybody coming out of the weeds. But for the first time in, I believe, it's six presidential elections, the out, the out party, you know, the ones that's not in the White House, they do not have a candidate that's at 25% going into midterms. Gavin Newsom is the first one
Starting point is 02:24:35 that is not at 25% going in the midterms I believe it's six administrations so guess what that says the Dems aren't excited about him of course not no but look at how scary that is Tom and imagine if she comes in and he comes because you guys remember that thing that they were talking about the abortion
Starting point is 02:24:51 she must she kind of she moved him out of the way and he stayed quiet she's in charge from my point of you're saying she may be like a bachelorette girl she's like the bachelor's girl I don't I don't know how violent she- Two weeks ago when she jumped in front of him. And I mean's media, stop picking on Gabby.
Starting point is 02:25:08 Gabi's working hard. Don't pick on him. It wasn't planned. She moved him to the side, and he stayed there with his head down. And she's like, hey, you guys need to stop bothering my husband about the nonsense and how horrible he's ruined California. We're talking about murdering innocent babies. All right. And he stayed quiet with his head down.
Starting point is 02:25:25 Look at this. Well, like, just stop Rob. Look at this photo. This isn't planned. Okay. That's the look of I'm going to speak now. Played, look at that, look at him. Stay's quiet.
Starting point is 02:25:35 Just for a couple seconds, Rob. You were in California take acting lessons remember for president at the same time. Look at his face. We have plain parenthood here. And women are 51% of the population. And the majority of the questions,
Starting point is 02:25:47 all of these questions have really been about other issues. Yeah, pause right there. I don't. Because here's what's scary. Gavin Newsom is openly telling you he's pro-illegals. He's pro-s sanctuary.
Starting point is 02:25:58 He wants to give all them money. He'll open the border. And then, you have a wife that is promoting murdering innocent babies in the womb. Full stop. That's who she is. And she's telling you that you need to learn as heterosexual people, how to learn from two gay men who bought babies because you have to pay for them
Starting point is 02:26:16 and how you're going to raise kids. That is the number one frontrunner of the Democratic Party. Congratulations. And here we go. I'm telling you so, this is what you guys want. This is what you're going to get. Remember this. Well, listen, last thing before we wrap up, we'll see what's going to happen is this.
Starting point is 02:26:32 There was a video going around last week viral, hundreds of millions of views saying Jeffrey Epstein, seen in a car convertible with the hat put backwards. I don't know if you remember that. I think I saw him, actually. Yeah. The actual guy in the car. Yeah. So that video that you saw with everybody, I told you he's alive. I told you he's alive.
Starting point is 02:26:49 The guy that was in there, Vinny, show the one that, yeah, that one right there, that guy right there. The guy that was in there. Go back a little bit. What's the name? No, no. Don't show this one, Rob. Show the one I texted you. Show the one I texted you, the one that you got in your text?
Starting point is 02:27:04 If I was a Democrat. Yeah, right there. Show this one. Watch this. Yeah. Look how much light, look how many views it got. It got 1.6 million likes. Man in Florida.
Starting point is 02:27:13 It got a million shares. Go ahead, Rob. Hey, everybody. This Palm Beach, Pete. And my video went viral because some dude randomly filmed me while I was driving on I-95. Four hours. He didn't have a phone. And the next thing I know, I'm a viral sensation.
Starting point is 02:27:29 I had my phone down for about four. hours and I think no my phone was blowing up with all these comments from that video. So I got a lot of traction. It's pretty crazy. Thanks. So you're not Jeffrey Epstein? I'm not Jeffrey Epstein. I'm Palm Beach Pee. He looks like what Jeffrey Epstein would say. But by Palm Beach, he's he did all his dirty work in Florida. You're telling me that's not Palm, but he happens to be in Palm Beach. If I was him, I'd be calling Republicans. He happens to look exactly like Jeffrey Epstein. You pay me and I'll just hang around. down, Democrats.
