We had a great time with the family here. There are a lot of things that's going on right now that we're gonna talk about on the podcast today. Many different stories. The one story that I'm really excited to go a little bit deeper on is how President-elect Trump is using Panama Canal

as a form of a negotiation, and I just love that he's going there we're going to talk about that there's a lot of history with Panama Canal and there is a angle which I believe is the Carnegie Rockefeller angle which I'll tell you once we get into that topic there was a tragic event in New York subway where Governor Hoco comes out she's like look it's safe use the subway you have nothing to worry about it's great boom right afterwards what happens a man who was asked to leave under trunk who was let back in under biden lights a lady on fire and she dies and he i mean it's just a tragic we're not going to play the cliff some of you guys have probably seen it But we have to definitely talk about what happened there, which we will

Newsome was confronted on the 24 billion dollars missing. You got to see the reaction here and those of you in, California They did do something good, which is great There was this two girls that were shoplifting and they're like, wait a minute. We just what's the big deal? This this is not a felony and they're they're the car, in the cop car talking to each other. Did they change the law? Is this now a felony? California changed the law and people who were robbing others are now getting a felony which is actually a good thing for the state of California.

Stephen A. Smith, Stephen A. Smith said he regrets his vote for Kamala. Okay. And he's saying this while he's negotiating for his contract with Disney and ABC and Bob Iger. I have a point of view. I think I know what's going on. We'll talk about that and we'll play the clip. Anyways, I may be wrong, but I have an idea on what's going on there. We'll see. Don Lemon is going out there interviewing others about the media and all this stuff. He runs into somebody who confronts him and he doesn't like it but he still posts it and you got to respect it but the reaction to it it's such great commentary and such a beautiful moment caught on TV. You got to see it. This husband and husband, this gay couple who adopt boys, story comes out. It's such a disturbing story to even talk about that

we will go to it later on when we do. You got kids, you can tell them to do earmuffs while we're going through the stories or maybe even have them listen to it. I would have my older son, 12 and 11 year year old actually listen to it to see what's going on out there and kind of get their thoughts on it. There was a clip on 60 minutes with a Mossad agent talking about what they did with pagers and it's an interesting one to definitely watch. Nick Fuentes, we haven't even reacted to it. Apparently somebody knocked on his door after having killed three people and was there to take out Nick but Nick was doing a stream we got to talk about this because there's a lot of people that are screaming nowadays around the

world and it's a different season we're living in but we'll definitely talk about that. Orlando, in Orlando a drone, guys I don't even know if you saw that a drone fell on a kid, kid had to go to the hospital and do a heart surgery you know these drone shows that people do drone started raining on people Rob if you got the clip let's get that ready later on we'll get into it I'm actually curious you know what the thoughts are with these drone shows we were about to do a drone show at our vault conference event at the breakers and then last minute we decided against it but we'll talk about that Trump's 25% tariff on Canada could hurt the auto Our vault conference event at the breakers and at last minute we decided against it

But we'll talk about that Trump's 25% tariff on Canada could hurt the auto industry We'll talk about that teamster boss sits down with Tucker and Tells the time where he's talking to Kamala about whether they're gonna get her support their support or not and Kamala's answer You have to see what she told the boss, which is interesting It's revealing and then there's a massive strike going on right now with starbucks 60 stores have already closed down. I think another 300 are going on a strike right now as we speak It is a real thing and in azerbaijan

Had a plane that crashed that had 62 passengers and five crew members on and it brought out 150 emergency workers, 45 vehicles were involved for the rescue, 38 people at the number as of a few hours ago dead, 29 survived.

Okay, so let's get right into it. Gang.

Hey, PBD. Yes. Before we get started, you know, I'm gonna say one thing just I'm in New York so I don't want people to hear me Hey, Merry Christmas guys. Merry Christmas. Okay. I don't want I was wearing this shirt And people got upset I said, what do you mean Merry Christmas? I'm Jewish. I don't what are you talking about? No, it's happy holidays, sir Sir, it's happy holidays. Well it just says who you hang out with a lot. They roll the rest. I don't know why you but it is what it is. I said 70 podcasts close. Go to church. We do not judge. We respect

your choice on Merry Happy. I want to start off with Stephen A. Smith. I want to start off with Stephen A. Smith. I want to start off with Stephen A. Smith. I want to start off with Stephen A. Smith. I want to start off with Stephen A. Smith. So let's get right into it. Rob, here is Stephen A. Smith talking about his regret for the vote on Kamala Harris. Okay, so we know, he says he voted for her. We know, we had him on the podcast. We talked about a lot of different things. I asked him if his mother, that's his hero, who I always, when I'm having dinner with Stephen A, the way his mannerisms are,

it's unbelievable how he is at the table, how he is carrying himself around other people. So respectful, somebody raised him right, his mother that he always praises. He even said if his mother was around today, she may have voted conservative if she was around today. But watch what Trump is, watch what Stephen A is going through right now. Rob, if you got the clip of Stephen A talking about Kamala, please go ahead and play the

clip and let's react to it. Go ahead, Rob. Anybody could dismiss Donald Trump at this particular moment in time, not just because of him, but because of what we've seen the Democrats do. We're not falling for it any longer. The American people aren't falling for it any longer. I voted Democrat, and I got to tell you something right now. I don't like the fact that I did.

I don't like what I'm saying. I don't want to hear about, oh, we're about a law. Nobody's above the law. Nobody's above the law. But then you go out and you pardon your son and you try to blame everybody else for it. I don't wanna hear about defund the police.

I don't wanna hear about, you know, what there should be open borders. I don't wanna hear this stuff. And I don't think most of the American people want to hear that. And I'm no longer interested in, nor do I believe any of us should be interested in, in listening to a bunch of fear mongering

to tell us who we shouldn't vote for. Why don't you come up with a plan that tells us why we should vote for you? Rini, I'll go to you. I mean, listen, I respect Stephen A a lot. I love what he does. I think he's one of the most, like he's the guy that you wanna listen to

when it comes to sports, and he's actually very intelligent. I think this shift, I think this shift is every single one of these people that voted because they were all, they weren't just BSing, they knew that they're gonna be voting for, even though she was,

they knew she was full of crap. I think this shift is what we're seeing with Shank. I think it's what we're seeing with Chris Cuomo. Everybody now is changing their tune. Everybody. You know why? Because the market is telling them to. Okay. He's still a Democrat, true and true. Here's my question. You don't think he knew everything that she was saying was BS? A thousand percent. That's the him hating Trump attitude that made him vote. Remember, it wasn't a vote for Kamala. It was a vote for it ain't Trump.

And now every single one of them, just like Stephen A, are changing their tune because they have to. That train, the Democrat, Kamala, I love change. That train, they got to jump off of the path or else their careers are going to be affected. And I think, who's he under? Peewee, Who's ESTN under? ABC and Disney. ABC and Disney. Who's in charge? Bob Iger.

Those people are going hey listen, you know what? The world, the market is saying it's cool to beat like Trump. It's cool the dance and that. Let's get on the Trump train and they're all doing it. Every single one of them. Adam, what do you think? beat like Trump. It's cool the dance and that let's get on the Trump train and they're all doing it. Every single one of them. Adam, what do you think? Look, Stephen A. Smith, who we've had, we spent a lot of time with, I'll never forget the dinner that we had a couple months ago, yourself, me, Tom, Chris Cuomo and Stephen A. Smith. And the conversation was amazing. Sports, politics, relationships, dating, election, everything.

Stephen A. Smith is one of the most consequential, monumental, eloquent, articulate wordsmiths of our generation. He's simply more than sports. He's everything. He's politics and he's dipping his toe into the water, but he's not swimming all the way into the deep end right now. Listen, if you're part of Disney and you're part of that ecosystem of ESPN, we saw what happened with Sage Steel. If you're the face of the NBA, especially when it comes to broadcasting, you have to walk a fine line.

But much like me, who went through this metamorphosis and this sort of evolution of politics, he's going through this. We know how his mother raised him. She would be a true conservative these days. So one thing he said about a week ago, he says, I'm done with the Democrats saying that they have the moral high ground. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Nobody has the moral high ground. You're going to tell me that you have the moral high ground and you've been wrong on this, this, this, this, this, and this? I don't think so. Last point. You said this in the chat, Barack Obama. Come on, bro. Has anybody had a worse year than Barack Obama? So we're going to see what happens with that. By the way, Stephen A. Smith, you know how many people he can get on the phone like this? Hey,

Michael Jordan, what's going on? Hey, LeBron Michael Jordan what's going on hey LeBron James what's going on he called out LeBron James the other day Kendrick Birkin tried to call LeBron James the goat he said no no no no no no no no no now when Stephen A Smith is here baby Michael Jordan's the goat so I appreciate what Stephen A Smith does I appreciate his voice and give him time. Tom thoughts. I think Stephen A, you know, is seeing facts and he's speaking to facts. He sees the facts and he's going down the list of facts. They did this, they did this.

So things have been exposed at the election immediately thereafter. Stephen A has seen that and he's speaking to it. I respect that. Now, how much did he know? Did he have a hunch beforehand? Any reasonable person would have had to have more than a hunch about a lot of things going on. But I respect that Steven A has gone on.

And what you're seeing is I think he's upset because there's a degree of embarrassment. They were all asked to use their megaphone, every one of them. And some of them, like Oprah, were paid to use their megaphone. They cashed checks. And now they come out and they're embarrassed. So it wasn't just like I paid you to endorse me. Now you're being embarrassed later. I know there's a story we're going to cover later about a labor union where it's just shocking and now they're like, again, and I could see Steven

they going down his list. He's just like, again, another one, another one, another one. And finally he says, I've had enough. I regret this. So you know, I don't know if he had a hunch, but I think he was he's definitely embarrassed. And at least he's going down the list with facts the way Stephen A does. He goes back. This guy said this.

This guy said this. When he was thinking, when you look at it, I'm with Tom. Okay, that's all you don't believe that Stephen A this entire time. Tom, he's not dumb. He's educated, he's articulate. He knew this whole time. He's not stupid. This shift isn't because he's finally had an epiphany.

These people were all either paid, Tom, just like you said, or they actually believed it. And again, Tom, this is just the hate for Trump, and they were willing to vote for somebody that has radical ideas has done nothing in the political political world. You don't need Pat. I think it's all I want to make the brief. I was talking about Oprah being paid. I was not talking about Steven. I did not say Steven. It was paid. Sure, A.

He said he got paid and that's inappropriate stuff to say Tom. Please don't do that. I know you were saying something. I'm going to ask you a question here because I remember, I think, correct me if I'm wrong, Cuomo, I'm sorry, Stephen A Smith says, listen, I go on Hannity. That's my guy. Cuomo is I'm sorry, Stephen A Smith says listen I go on Hannity. That's my guy Cuomo's my guy by the way, he went on Fox News Mark Levin to make this comment. He didn't say I voted calmly said I voted Democrat

Right, and I regret my vote, you know, he's in the middle of contract negotiations right now. He but he what are your thoughts? Where is where is here right now? Here's here's what I'm thinking about. It's it's one of two things Okay, and and I'm gonna give you which one I think it is. It's one The contract negotiation isn't going as planned. Oh, and he has said F it I'm out. This is how you guys want to treat me. I'm out I can go make my own money and get my own attention and get my own eyeballs I think his channel either crossed a million or is about to this guy's gonna get eyeballs people gonna listen to what? Stephen a has to say that's one okay, what a negotiations not going right, and he's not happy Let me tell you what number two is number two is

Capitalism will force you to go back to common sense. I think capitalism has kicked Bob Iger's ass in ways no one else physically has in his entire life. Let me explain to you why. You write a book that everybody reads right of a lifetime. You replace yourself with Bob Schapek. You leave, first co-CEO, then he's gonna take over, then you leave, then it screws up. You want to run for president then you have to come back to save Disney to save ABC

Valuation goes from 400 billion dollars to 200 billion dollars under your reign Nobody likes what you're doing. You keep producing shitty movies after shitty movies after shitty movies yesterday. I went to the theater to watch Sonic 3 and movies yesterday I went to the theater to watch Sonic 3 and while we're going out there the the commercial for that one movie with that one girl talking about I don't know what that Disney movie was where the girl was being woke what was that one movie with Snow White is over here and I just like that like you destroyed you destroyed a movie that I will not take my kids to go watch then wicked going to

me. And anyways, these are separate topics here. But I think if Bob Iger is the man that I think he is, you cannot take a business and go from being a low level employee to being a CEO of a $400 billion company by pure luck. and Bob did go on a ride of a lifetime. Bob didn't negotiate with greats with Steve Jobs. Bob did go out by biggest franchises like Star Wars. Bob did go out there and do a bunch of stuff that others couldn't do. When Steve Jobs didn't want to have anything to do with Disney, Bob is the one that brought Steve Jobs to the table.

When there were so many people that didn't want to do anything, this guy's probably one of the best sit down guys we've had in the last 30 years. So there's so many good that he's done. But I hope capitalism, every once in a while, you're going to get your ass handed to you, no matter how good you're all of us in business, you're going to have some public losses. I hope capitalism gets him to realize, I like that Stephen A is talking the way that he is. I like that Stephen A is challenging people. I like that he's getting eyeballs.

The other day, Stephen A posted a clip that got 10 million plus views and it was shared all over the place on X. What about if we leverage this? What about if I pay attention to this? Maybe this is what the American people want. Maybe this is what people are interested in. You know what? What if we bring him in

and then we use him to go on the view, to go on everything else, to be a regular? What if we have him to have a multi-talented guy that's doing both ESPN and other shows on ABC? And what if his contract becomes bigger than ABC, bigger than ESPN, it becomes an ABC type of a contract, that widens his reach, that widens the amount of money that he can make.

I am hoping it's the second. I'm hoping the rumors about the kind of money Stephen A's about to get is factual, he gets it, and I'm hoping, I'm being hopeful. We went to Disney World three days ago, and now I'm walking around just to look. Something froze, PBD. The PBD phrase?

Vinny, can you hear me? Tom, can you hear me? Looks like Pat just jumped off. While Pat comes back, I see the screen is loading. Yeah. I think Pat's up already. Touched on Bob Chapek.

I remember when we had to read the book, Right of a Lifetime, about Bob Iger, How the Mighty have Fallen. But Stephen A. Smith, there's a part of what Pat is saying about Bob Iger that is correct. But back to Stephen A. Smith. We know this, and this is my opinion. YouTube money ain't ESPN Disney money as far as a contract goes.

Tom, you would know the numbers. You know, I think Pat McAfee signed a contract with ESPN. What was that, Tom? I think you're right. Matt McAfee signed a contract, I think 120 million bucks. Stephen A Smith is sort of in that range. Pat, you're back. PBD, you're back. You can't see me or no. So that was your back. Yes. Okay, so you guys threw down, but I got cut off. Yeah, we were continuing the conversation. PBD,

now that you're back. Yeah, I was basically saying that YouTube's great and all free markets great and all but YouTube money ain't Disney money ain't ESPN money Pat McAfee signed a contract 120 million over five years or whatever it was. I don't know the exact details. voice back to Stephen A Smith, you know, the market will pay you what you're worth. In your opinion, PBD, what's more important to Stephen A, the money or the voice and the freedom? Because you know, on ESPN, you can't say everything you want to say, right? Yeah, but but but there comes a time in your life when you are not the number one with a network, not number one within a region, not number one within you are number one. There's only one Stephen A. No one's ahead of Stephen A.

There's only one Stephen A, okay? Who has the depth that he has. If I was representing him, I get to make the asks. That doesn't mean that I have to say yes, but I get to make the asks that doesn't mean that I have to say yes But I get to make the asks and by the way, steven a is not old He's probably in the best shape. He's been in 20 years. He looks incredible preparing to go on the next 10 year run so it leverages on him. Anyways, let's go to the next story here There you go with see uh, steven a next one rob. Do you have the clip of newsome?

Steven a next one Rob do you have the clip of Newsome in California whichever one you have we can go with the 27 billion dollars 24 billion dollars being confronted to say hey what happened to that 24 billion dollars when he's being asked if you have that clip so this is the governor of California the great state of California which he's destroyed the last four years under his reign he's being asked what four years under his reign. He's being asked, what happened for this $24 billion that you asked us taxpayers to fix homelessness? What happened to that money? Here's the exchange. Go ahead, Rob. Shouldn't doing enough to determine whether the money that's being plowed into homelessness

is being well spent. One of the vaccine issues that was highlighted in the audit was local and each city and county has different strategies and approaches. We try to level set that. I'm sorry, Governor, I didn't hear responses to either of those questions. Do you acknowledge whether the money that the state isn't doing enough to ensure that the money is being well spent? The audit did not surprise me. The state has advanced unprecedented investments, you're correct, and unprecedented

interventions demanding more accountability with state money at the local level. Yeah, what does that mean buddy? Tom, what are your thoughts on Newsom and how he's being held accountable with the money and still doesn't give any answers? Well, guess what? The questions that are being asked publicly of Gavin Newsom are the ones that are being asked privately by people that are leaking out all over the place about Kamala Harris. What you saw in the Kamala Harris campaign, you take a big stack of money, you give it to bureaucrats and politicians, and they spend it on micro programs and stuff, and there's consultants and there's skin all

over that. We saw it in the Harris campaign. Take the billion in the Harris campaign that disappeared, multiply it by 20 over a couple of years. That's what's happening in California. There are consultants in that that was lost. There are individual cities that each did things their own way, which was wasteful. You know, the whole point of a state government is to say, we're going to do it this way in

every city and you get some efficiencies like that. If you run a business like that, Pat, you ran incredibly successful, great nationwide insurance, you know, with one playbook for sales, you had everybody marching together doing it. That's not, that's not how it works. You could have a Republican city in Orange County. They get money. You could have a Democrat city in Santa Barbara They get money and then they do it themselves and then they pay their own consultants and it's waste and it's grab And it's a lack of leadership and that's what he doesn't want to own up to oh the audit didn't surprise me

You're in charge dude. You're the governor You're the one that could put down these guardrails when there are wildfires in California path, the way it works. The governor declares national disaster area and you have full coordinated efforts. Why? Cause there's nothing to hide behind. The flames don't wait. You have to coordinate.

You have to show leadership and you have to get the fire out. But when you're doing the same on homeless, what we'll do this, we'll do this. Who did this? Newsome has presided over something that is 20 times more loss than the camel Harris campaign and what's the difference not much Vinny um well pal I as you know I was uh in California recently for uh for work for for Manek thing and just see first of all it doesn't surprise me at all and I don't know if it was just my Computer but what and I'm this is coming from somebody that's always read in tan if he looks Overly red and like I thought he was like in a satanic costume Halloween something

I don't know his face was you know, and he was playing the part very well But I was just in LA Pat and I mean the homeless Situation just driving around I was like, oh my God, and mind you, I've been here in Florida for three years, it's gotten insane, and it's like at what point are the people gonna stay, enough is enough, and stop putting these type of people in power? Because at the end of the day Pat,

I don't feel bad for you. If you keep voting for these people because hey, I'm a Democrat and I just, you know, I have to go Democrat, it's on you guys as well because people we keep hearing the thing, Tom taxpayer money, taxpayer money, no, say what it is. It's your money, California. It's your money. And where's it going? Nothing is getting done. The streets are horrible. Homelessness is out of control. Crime is up, but they keep pretending It's like as long as you're not you know, just keep voting for us They keep giving all these promises and nothing happens and it doesn't surprise me when it comes to Gavin Newsom the snake in the grass

That he is. Oh, it's not their money Vinny. It's our money It's the people of the United States in the future debt of the United States because California received Federal money on top of that for the homeless problem because on one hand they opened the door they talked sanctuary city sanctuary state but then they asked the federal government to help pay for it it's the same thing that was happening in New York and Eric Adams finally called it out and said look I don't want any more we have to put it to a stop that was after he was given out ATM cards paid for by the American people not the New York people.

You know, while while you're talking Vinny, I went on Rob, I want to send this to you if you can pull this up. I went on California homeless auditors auditor.california.gov. If you can pull up that link, Rob, that link and go to because what I want to know is this money that you asked from us that we paid for. Have you been able to slow down homelessness in the state of California because you were able to do it for G when he came to San Francisco and clean up. So if you could do that, could you have cleaned it up?

Rob, if you can just pull up the chart while I'm speaking to show it to the audience. And if you go to that page and go to the middle of it, you'll see figure one that says California's population of people experiencing homelessness has increased since 2013. Now when did Newsom become the governor of the state of California? What year? So Governor Newsom, when did you become, keep going lower, keep going lower, keep going lower. Where it says figure one, keep going lower, you'll see it right now it's coming up. Keep going, keep going, keep right there. Boom in a little bit, it's good. Look at that. California's population of homelessness

from 2013 to 2015 it went down. So he's been a governor since when? I don't even know. 18. So 18, right? So prior to that, it went down from 2013 to 2015. So whoever was the governor was able to decrease it, 3,000 people during that two-year period. Then it goes up in 17, and in 18 he comes in, and it goes up from 131,000 to 181,000 even after getting the money. By the way, when did they get that money for, when did they get the money from Homeless California, homelessness, 24 billion? When was it given? When did they get that money, Tom? Do you remember what year it was? Okay, California has spent about $24 billion on homelessness since 2019. Audit finds California spent $24 billion on homelessness in five years and didn't consistently track outcomes. This is a CBS story that I pulled

up from April 9th, Rob, if you can pull this up. So they got the money from taxpayers. So imagine like it's kind of like this. You're starting a business. We raise money. You give us $24 billion and every month if you, the taxpayers, gave us $24 billion, what report if you the taxpayers gave us $24 billion What report do you want from us on a monthly basis if you gave the $24 billion for homelessness? What question will you the investors in us say what report you want on a monthly basis? What's the most basic number you want to hear from us? Homelessness going on or homelessness going down all you care. And you mean to tell me in this article, CBS says at the top that the article says was,

it says, even though they got the money, nobody was tracking the outcome, $24 billion. And what does it say, California spent 24, but didn't consistently track whether the huge outlay of public money actually improved the situation according to the state audit released Thursday with law making shift tens of hundreds of streets down the road. California homeless has become one of the most frustrating intracable issues in the country's most populous state.

An estimated 171,000 people are homeless in California, which amounts to roughly 30% of all homeless people in the U.S. 30% of all homeless people in the U.S. are in the state of California under his watch, despite this roughly billions of dollars spent on more than 30 homeless and housing programs during his tenure. 2018, which he came into 2023, California doesn't have reliable data needed to fully understand why the prom didn't improve in many cities. According to the state auditor's report, this report concludes that the state must do more to assess the cost-effectiveness of its homelessness problem. The audit analyzed five programs that received a combined $13.7 billion in funding and determined

that only two of them are likely cost-effective, including one that converts hotels and motel rooms into housing and another that provides. This is ridiculous. By the way, 30% of all homeless in the state of California California population is what 31 million what's California's you I just actually went right there with this California population is about 40 sorry 39 a million million. 30 million, 40 million, it's 11% yet 30%. Almost 10%. So 3X. That's an F. What you give Newsom is a big F. By the way, the reason why this matters is because 2028, 2027, he is running for president. 100%. And he has two years to clean up this resume before that happens. Now, while

we're doing this, let's also give California some credit for making an adjustment on a crime. Rob, here's the state of California. And Adam, I'm going to come to you right after this. Here's the state of California. In the state of California, what happens? They have a story of two girls that are shoplifting thinking it's not a big deal Rob I don't know what page it's on but I think you have the video they're shoplifting while they're shoplifting they find out wait a minute why are we getting a felony why are we getting a felony oh you're getting a felony because California changed laws what do mean you mean they changed laws? Rob, can you put this clip on what happens in California that now it's a felony if you steal something over a thousand dollars? If you got the clip,

please go in and play it. So I'm gonna walk all over you. It's a felony? Bitch, new laws. Geek. Stealing is a felony. Bitch, new laws. G- Stealing is a felony. This is their comedy skit. And this is Orange County, bitch. They don't put-

That's why I said county is this. That's where I went to jail last year and had to- and got on probation for a year for stealing out of Target. I just found me a brand new comedy skit. Wow. Music. We got to be aware of that. So Rob, can you tell us what happened there with the California story? Maybe give us a quick synopsis what's going on there so the audience knows. Those two women were filmed walking through several different target stores, Walmart's, I believe it was three or four different stores in which they stole close to $1,000 worth of merchandise. That is after they got arrested for stealing from the last store, they're in the cop car

and the cops tell them, hey, this is now a felony due to the passage of old law I hope to find the law and look right now okay so there's another clip I saw that a guy who gets caught shoplifting while he's getting caught shoplifting he comes back to court he kept going through it because he's doing it then when he comes back to court he realized the laws have changed and it's now felonies like, wait a minute, the previous six times I didn't get a felony now I'm getting a felony. What happened over here? Adam, your thoughts on this? Yeah, there's so much to unpack here. I remember Dave Chappelle did this kit one time and it was a guy basically walking to the street and a guy pops out. He's like,

Oh, don't do that now. That'll get you fired to tan. And essentially it's like, oh, so you're a lawyer now? These two women in the back of the cop car, this is how change happens. When two women are in the back of a cop car being like, I told you Orange County don't play. I told you that we shouldn't steal. I told you that this is not a good idea.

What are the chances that they knew the law that anything below a thousand dollars, you cannot be arrested? What are the chances that they knew the law that anything below $1,000 you cannot be arrested? What are the chances? I would say very high. No, PVD, you say this all the time. If California and Texas had a baby, it'd be Florida. The one thing that comes to mind as out of touch, shout out to Hall & Oates, Gavin Newsome, tanned, bronzed, just probably on vacation talking about, oh my God, we lost, how much we lose on Homelessness? One, one billion, five billion, $24 billion,

and the number hasn't gone down. The one thing that comes to mind is the debate between Gavin Newsom and Ron DeSantis. When Ron DeSantis busted out a freaking poop map to basically highlight the shit show that is California. Sorry for my cursing. Whether it's the homelessness, the cost of living, the regulation, the crime. I remember PBD, you did a case example.

Disney, Disneyland in California versus Disney World in Florida. Wow wow wee wow wow. What an absolute stark example of the ridiculousness that is going on in California and the effectiveness that is going on in Florida. Let me show you this. Check this out, I just sent this to Rob Rob. Could you zoom in a little bit please

so I can read this to them? All right, so California store prices, items go a little bit above, California store items at go a little bit above California items at nine fifty one. So shoplifters will be arrested or doing so can be charged with grand theft. So look what it says if you look at it closely warning all items in the store all items in the store are marked at nine fifty one, non-criminal discount applied at checkout

for all paying customers only. The state of California will prosecute all shoplifters under the California penal code of 487 PC. Did you understand what just happened here? They priced everything at $951. Except when you come to the counter, getting ready to pay, they give a discount to non-criminal discount. That is so, think about what the hell is going on in California that this is how creative

you have to get so everybody goes to kill. Rob, if you can now play the other clip that was posted by Mario in the fall, not the one that we played with the music in it. This one here will tell you a little bit more about the story of those two young girls who are making a mistake. Go ahead and play the clip Rob. Did you get the clip? I think I texted it to you. Rob, while you're getting it, Vinny, those dinosaurs that escaped out of those eggshells behind you, how are they doing? I didn't want to say anything because I'm pretty sure because I'm not reading the chat

at all. I never read the chat. But I'm actually, they don't hear me right now, but they have hatched. All these are baby dinosaur eggs that have hatched and they're actually right they're in they're in this room watching but as he's searching for it but I think this is it there we go let him play the clip oh I got it Rob this also has the music yeah are they playing this moon of these days these boots so you know let's fix 48 brazen and casual they just walk right out and then this is what they're coming back to the same girls stealing more 237

oh and they're getting this whole thing on camera and they're just walking out. And they went from ultra makeup to target and they have the orange bags that they took from ultra makeup. Oh so it's it's tracking their entire journey. Rob let it keep playing Rob unless if it's stop okay you go so then more cameras catching what they're doing Rob is there is there sound or no was that music still playing Wow so now they're realizing it's a felony. Not it. On the law, if you want, I have the background on the law.

Prop 36 went before the voters and the voters, California, 68.4% passed prop 36. And here's what happened. The nine 50 is an important number because now they also said nine 50 could be aggregate. It used to be that if an item was under a thousand, now it's 9 50 is an aggregate. So when those girls stole all that stuff from target and from ultra, the cumulative total was over 9 50 and now you're arrested for a felony and the, and the larger girl that was on the right-hand side in the back of the police car, she knew it was speaking to the somewhat shorter, smaller girl saying, hey man, it's a felony now. Voters, check this out. 10.3 million Californians voted yes

on Prop 36, make it a felony, make it aggregate. 4.7 million, highly concentrated in, hang on, San Francisco, Oakland, Alameda, and Los Angeles counties, those are people that vote, no, no, no, we don't want this law, don't want this law. But the people have spoken, Pat. This went before the people, they voted Prop 36, and it got passed. And now the teeth of the bill, there it is. Yep, there you go. So it's not just drug, it was cumulative shoplifting.

I freaking love that. I love that. By the way, leave it to business owners to come up with a creative way to protect their business from losses. Of course they're going to put every item in the stores worth $951. I'm supposed to pay a bunch of people salaries. I can't stay in business if people keep stealing from me and the government doesn't protect me. And you take the sides of the people that are stealing from me. That doesn't make any sense for business. Why would anybody want to start a business in the state of California if you're going to protect thieves over the business owner that creates jobs?

How does that make any sense? Vinny, final thoughts and we'll go to the next one. Yeah, and I could have a short clip PBT that I want Rob to queue up of how how Entitled these speeds are okay I it's a couple of girls at CVS leaving the guy locks the door and she threatens to call the police on him We're not letting her steal Rob whenever you have to play the I'm dead play this clip play this clip with them getting caught There's no music play this put the volume up Open the door. Watch this.

Open the door. Look at how funny she is. Sure. Watch. Put that down. Okay. This is security. You better put it over there.

Go. Touch me, you don't have the right to touch me. Don't not, oh my kid. Go to the kid's leg. Go call them. Call them, yo. Hey, touch me though. Call them, Dan.

She wants to call the police. You can't touch me though. Call them then. Look, she wants to call the police. You can't touch me though. What's going on? What's going on? What's going on? What's going on? What's going on? What's going on?

What's going on? What's going on? Look, OK. And that's OK. So here's what it is. Like, am I the only one that's losing my mind that we have to make crime, like something illegal actually illegal again?

I don't get it. You're stealing, which is a crime, you should go to jail. There has to be a monetary limit to what you're still, it's like the border. When we have illegal immigration and these illegals that we're going to get to them are coming in. You know what it is Vinny, while you're saying this, like here's my question. To anybody that's watching that, the behavior you just witnessed right now with those young girls, to anybody that's a parent, if your

younger daughter did that to you, what happens to your blood? If your younger daughter did that to you, what happens to your blood? If your younger daughter takes your makeup out of your bag You know the relationship between a mom and a daughter when a daughter always takes the makeup out and what happens to mom? Don't touch my makeup. How do you feel when your daughter touches your makeup and she takes your makeup out of your bag? I'm curious Now listen if your son takes your makeup out of your bag It's a different feeling but daughter takes your makeup out of your bag, it's a different feeling. But if your daughter takes your makeup out of your bag, it's a different feeling.

But how do you feel about it? How do you feel about it? They entitled? Mom, leave me alone, mom. You can't do anything. I'm just putting a little bit of makeup on. What's wrong with you? How do you think these guys feel when somebody's robbing

and a guy can't even call the cops on them? They're gonna call the cops on them they're gonna call the cops on them this is why this is why Stephen A Smith sounded the way she did this is why Elon Musk was a former Democrat left the party this is why Joe Rogan was a former Democrat left the party this is why Tulsi Gabbard left the party this is why Bobby Kennedy endorsed Trump this is why Joe Manchin the story just came out, Rob, I don't know what page it's on, a story comes out with Joe Manchin saying the fact that I have it somewhere in here. Joe Manchin, right, says Warren's Democratic Party is so is toxic

as he steps down from the US Senate. Wait, what? Joe Manchin says what? Joe Manchin says the Democratic Party is so toxic that he is stepping down. Why? Because bad policies have consequences. This is a story from The Guardian. Stepping on after 15 years as a US Senate, he criticized the Democratic Party as toxic and accused progressiveness of dictating how Americans should live. He argued the party had shifted from focusing on issues like good job, good pay to sensitive social issues, including LGBTQ rights on Kamala Harris's rights and laws to Donald Trump. He said, if you try to be somebody, you're not, it's hard. And added, every red blooded American should want your president to succeed.

Manchin called for a centrist third party saying, the centrist moderate vote decides who's going to be the president of the United States. And when they get here, they don't govern that way. If the Senator had a voice and had a party, that would be something. He criticized both Democrats and Republicans as too extreme stating Democrats want to ban guns while Republicans say let any anybody have anything they want.

That's Joe Manchin for you. So that's another person you lost. This guy was a guy that was a reasonable guy. This guy was a guy that had good ideas. Now you lost him as well. Bad policies. They're experiencing a massive exodus. Tom.

By the way, consequences, you said there were consequences. What we don't see is regular citizens are suffering consequences too. In San Francisco, in January of 2022, there were 21 CBSs. We just saw the video, that was a CBS pharmacy just getting blatantly ripped off. January 2024, they were down to 12 CVSs in San Francisco, and I believe right now they are down to nine. There are nine CVSs in the city of San Francisco, and most of those are in the more wealthier areas such as the Marina District. And so the consequences also on the people. So when the government thinks that they're winning votes from these people, they're really

screwing other people, like older people and folks that are living in areas that need a CVS there so they can get services. And Joe Manchin is right. The rebel policies, the rebel policies that he's talking about, he says, isn't the Democrat Party you recognize? You're not helping the people when you're, there it is, CBS makes another SF store. When you run amok, the consequences are everybody loses. It's not just mansion. That's what we just saw. Regular people now have less convenience getting to CBS

to go get the basic things that they need. Pat, I know we want to get off the topic Pat, but Cashew has a question What what what made? California make that decision. What was it post George Floyd riots everything defund the police What was this done was this the tactic to get the black folder? I don't I don't what was the shift to be like hey if anybody's stealing if anybody's doing this if you're riding in the street If you're burning down business, it's okay. These are peaceful protests. What was that shift, Tom? When, when did that happen? Because I have a feeling that it was during that. You're asking a great question. It's the word decriminalization. They talk about

decriminalize marijuana, decriminalize possession of a certain amount of marijuana. Keep the penalties for distribution. There's a slippery slope when you start decriminalizing, then they say, well, we're all clogged up with all these $500 shoplifting things, and businesses have insurance. Remember, these are liberal far left Democrats talking. So maybe we should decriminalize shoplifting. We'll make it under $1, dollars. That's what they did. That's what happened.

The number of break-ins, you can go Google it and say break-ins in, uh, for auto theft break-ins, people stealing backpacks. A, if that backpack had a basic laptop that was worth less than a thousand bucks, they were selling it at pawn shops for $200, making $200 on that. But it was a non-criminalized offense because what they stole was worth less than a thousand. So guess what? Crime went up, actually, and the number of shoplifting cases went down.

So what happened to society? Society lost. So were the courts less crowded with $500 shoplifting? Yes. But guess what happened? You enabled more crime. There it is. Vehicle theft reports. And it's also vehicle break-ins, Rob. It was vehicle break-ins in San Francisco that people would leave their cars on lock with a note on the door that said, nothing

in the truck, nothing in the seats. You would actually leave your car as clean as a rental car, if you know what I mean, and not lock it so that they wouldn't break the window and you wouldn't have to have your window replaced, but you left nothing in there that they could take, not even quarters sitting in the ashtray, nothing. So that's what happened. The word decriminalization, which in the mind of the liberal far-left Democrat is these people are stealing to survive and they accept it. They accept it as a redistribution of wealth. That's how the Democrats think about the criminalization. One quick point and no one touched on bubating. I have one quick one Adam you got 30 seconds. Well look Joe Manchin you know I've

been talking and singing his praises for over five years now. Centrist, look, Joe Manchin, you know, I've been talking and singing his praises for over five years now, centrist, moderate, someone with common sense. You know, the common phrase, I didn't leave the Democratic Party, the Democratic Party left me. But let me say the most important thing that we probably said in this entire conversation, and I'm going to say it. What's the common theme that's going on in California? It's not just Californians, it's not just women,

it is specifically black women. And I love my black brothers and sisters out there, but let me say this, PBD, how many times have we discussed the biggest problem in America, which is the lack of a father in a home? Who's leading the league with single mothers? Well, it is African Americans. Okay, in America 25% of all homes are born to unwed mothers. I think we're leading the league in single parents. The stats are

showing that the world, 7% the world with single parents, 25% in America. So then you have a situation where the the the stat show whites, 30% I believe, are born out of wedlock. The national average is 40%. Latinos, my Hispanic friends, 53%. My Black and African American friends, 72%. If we want to improve what's going on here in America, we need to bring the father back into the home, okay?

It is 10 times more likely to be incarcerated, 20 times more likely to have violence, whether it's dropping out of school, whether it's teen pregnancy, what is this is lack of basic common sense. Black people, Latinos, even the white people out there, bring the father back to the home. I thought for a second you were going to make a point about BBWs. I'm like, what? I fully thought you were going to.

Big girls need love too, brother. Because I thought that was like your but anyways okay let's go to the next part you touched on this before many times and and i and i fully agree and uh you know we got work to do it's the hero making machine who we turn into heroes the issue well let's let's go to this here panama canal okay out of nowhere you hear the president Okay out of nowhere you hear the president talk about we got to take Panama Canal back What did this lazy? negotiation that was done in

1977 I believe with Jimmy Carter lazy Negotiation and most people don't even know the history of Panama Canal Rob if you have the clip of the president talking about Panama Canal, I'd love to get into it. And by the way, for some of you that are not following this thing closely, let me start out by reading a part of it and then we'll get right into it. Trump is teasing US expansion into Panama, Greenland and Canada. His ideas calling ownership of Greenland an absolute necessity for purposes of national security and freedom throughout the world. Greenland Prime Minister

Newt Eggett firmly responded, Greenland is ours, we are not for sale and we will never be for sale. While Danish Prime Minister Mette Fredriksen reaffirmed earlier comments that the proposal was absurd, Trump also teased annexing Canada on social media. And then last but not least, he suggested retaking control of the Panama Canal, calling it a vital national asset and urging Panama to lower fees on American ships.

He warned to the officials of Panama, please be guided accordingly. Panama's president, Jose Raul Molino rejected the idea, stating every square meter of the Panama Canal and its adjacent area belongs to Panama and will continue to and described Trump's comments as a manifestation of gross ignorance of history. Rob, play the clip. Has anyone ever heard of the Panama Canal? Because we're being ripped off at the Panama Canal like we're being ripped off everywhere

else. The fees being charged by Panama are ridiculous, highly unfair, especially knowing the extraordinary generosity that has been bestowed to Panama. If the principles, both moral and legal of this Magnanimous gesture of giving are not followed then we will demand that the Panama Canal be returned to the United States of America in full Quickly and without question not gonna stand for it Okay while you're going through this guys while he's saying this I did a video on Panama Canal Rob If you go YouTube type in Panama Canal bit David breaking down the whole thing

But here's five things you need to know about Panama Canal the threats Trump's threats to retake Panama Canal This is from the hill number one the Torrijos Carter treaty Trump criticized the 77 treaties signed by President Carter that transferred the canal to Panama calling it a ideal a deal where Carter foolishly gave it away for one dollar and Panamanian President Jose Raul Molino countered the sovereignty and independence of our country are not Negotiable adding that the canal rates are fair and based on market conditions. That's one to Adding that the canal rates are fair and based on market conditions. That's one two Flare up with an ally Trump's threats to retake Panama Canal strain ties with Panama a US ally Molino declared every square meter

We read that three Panama's management of the canal trunk called the canals turnover a magnet magnanimous gesture Implied undo Chinese influence. The canal has no control direct or indirect from China, Mulino says, for an eye for unwinding deals and treaties, and then last but not least, five, part of a broader territorial fixation of him talking about this. By the way, I have a whole thing I want to get into with this, but Tom, I'll go to you first. Tom F. Kennedy So, Jimmy Carter was trying to make the United States look less like an imperial power. What does imperial mean?

Well, it's like the US and Puerto Rico, it's like the French in Algiers and Morocco, where the large established countries had established beachheads and influence over foreign countries. And Carter was on this human rights campaign, which largely failed, good heart and a right position, but he didn't get it done. He didn't want us to look so imperial when he thought, wow, one of the ways we can do this is give Panama the canal back. But we have to remember what happened. In the name of Western trade, the United States built that canal.

The US built it and 75 was Vietnam a terrible war and I believe the number is 55 to 57,000 men died in Vietnam. 75% of that number died building the Panama Canal. Malaria, disease, things we didn't have really our arms around preparing these workers for down there in these tropical regions and disease went around and it was terrible. So it was, I think it was south of 40,000, but more than 35,000 people died there. So we're looking at it. We built this to facilitate trade.

One of the things that Carter did was Panama asked him history and no one wants to talk about this in mainstream media, they said, who's going to help defend it? Because we were all worried about communism and militarized communism in Central America at the time. We were worried about it. Reagan would come in and get after it in Central America on the communists. We were worried about communists closing the canal to international trade.

So we said, hey, part of giving it back to you for a dollar, we did the neutrality act. The canal will be neutral, but who will be the cops and who will pay for the cops? Estados Unidos. We paid for the cop. We said, we will pay for the cop. We will be the cops. We will, we will do military. We will pay for the cop. We will be the cops. We will do military, we'll do security, we will not allow insurgencies, we will defend the canal. So we took on the full

expense of it. When Panama in the 90s couldn't afford certain maintenance on these things, they're called locks, where the ships go in, they raise the water and they close these things called locks. Guess who paid for that? F**khead! We appropriated it! So we have been maintaining, we built it, we've been doing maintenance, we've been protecting it with our military guys against this. And so now, what Trump is saying, the mainstream media doesn't want to talk about because it's bad orange man all over again.

He's saying, we're going to take it back and we're going to protect it from China or anybody else that wants to influence and potentially close it or influence it. And by the way, it's 40 years behind in certain repairs, 40 freaking years. So it also needs needs work. So it keeps it and stays open. So, you know, everybody wants to say, Oh, Trump's doing this and that. No, he's actually trying to protect the business interests of many people. All the Caribbean nations that are doing business, import, export, they get it through their food, all kinds of stuff go there. So everybody wants to jump on Trump for this, but the truth is much deeper. Let me tell you this.

I, this has actually become my top five things he's working on. Stop it. Long term. Let me tell you why. Let me tell you why. Let me tell you why. And I'm going to break it down for you so you understand what is going on here. And I think it's brilliant. So if you think about in the 1600s, they said it'd be great. Rob, if you can show the map, just show the world map of US and South Central America. If you can show that and we can look at Panama for people to realize the magnitude of this and why this has to do with China. It is so important. It is so important.

I've been to Panama and I've watched the canal because when you go there, I stayed at the Hard Rock, which is an I've watched the canal because when you go there I stayed at the hard rock Which is an hour away from the canal if you zoom in zoom in go Actually go to Panama map type in Panama map at the top just Panama country map Yeah, zoom in zoom in right there if we can go there you can have okay, so check this out Panama Canal Right there zoom in that's the canal that they built Okay, if you don't if we can zoom out on the map if you can't go through there. Okay now if you can go to the Central America map go to Central America map

Watch this year Go on the one on the second one. Yeah, that's you know what? If you can go, go back a little bit Rob. Go back a little bit. Actually, just go to the world map. Just go to the world map if you can have that. Because it's so important to understand the power of this. The one on the left. Yeah. And click on it again. The map gets zoomed in even more. Yeah. So if you look at that, if you don't write the rub, you had it. Just go to that one, the pink one. Yeah. If you can't go through the Panama Canal, you have to go, like imagine if you're coming

from New York, go to New York on the map, Rob. Top right, pink. If you're coming from New York and there is no Panama Canal, you have to go all the way around the green to get to LA. Look at that. All the way around the green. And by the way, just to kind of give you guys some numbers on what that means. With the canal, it's only 4970 miles from New York to LA.

Without the canal, it's almost 13,000 miles. Okay? With the canal, it's 12 to 14 days. Without the canal it's 30 to 35 days. Okay? And then when you look at dollar amount, with it it's only $262,000 of fuel. Without it it's $705,000 of fuel. Robbie can take the map out at this point. So then if you go from China to New York China To come over here because they're going the other way So think China has to go the other way from California come all the way down to go to New York exactly China to New York with the canal 12,000 miles without the canal

19,000 miles So without the canal takes 45 days sometimes with the canal it takes, you know Roughly, you know 20 25 to 30 days So you mean to tell me this idea of Panama Canal was started in the 1600s a French company Started building this in the 1880s They ran out of money and they kind of paused it. Then in 1904, do you know who was president in 1904? One of the greatest presidents we've ever had,

his name is Teddy Roosevelt, who was president, comes in and he built the Panama Canal. Do you know how many people died building the Panama Canal? 27,000 people. Because to build a Panama Canal, you literally had to build bombs. They build, they blew things up and people were dying. They were dying from starvation, they were dying from sickness, they were dying from malaria, they were dying from yellow fever. They're dying 27609 people died building the Panama Canal. US builds

it in how long? 10 years. And who becomes president in 1915? The face of the progressive party, which is who? Woodrow Wilson becomes the president. It gets done because of Teddy Roosevelt in 10 years. Who benefits from it? The world. Then then who goes who is known as a very noble nice kind man good husband good father father but a shitty negotiator and a president a guy named jimmy carter goes and gives it up for what we didn't have to give that up and by the way do you know why i doubled down on trump picking up the panama canal you know why I doubled down on it? It is the only way we can prevent China from having a chokehold on US long-term. It is the only way. By the way, right now they need funding to finish up the construction because there's

a lot of challenges right now with the Panama Canal that people are not even talking about, where ships are getting stuck, the speed, all these things that are going through. They need, I think, $5.2 billion of funding. Guess who can help you with that? The U.S. can. I hope and pray and encourage for them to double down on this. I think this is an old school move

of when Andrew Carnegie did not respect John D Rockefeller and John D Rockefeller said I'm sorry what does Carnegie do? Carnegie steal? You know what we're gonna do? Don't you need to move that steal? Yeah, don't worry I have the railroads. Go ahead and move your steal. Go ahead. Move your steal. You're gonna need my railroads. I hope and pray that the US left, right, and center politically get behind this idea, because this benefits Americans long-term, no matter if you're a Republican, Democrat, or an Independent, everybody should get behind the idea

of Panama Canal that Trump is negotiating on. Vinny, I'll go to you next. Thoughts? I mean, Pat, to be honest with you, I didn't know that I wasn't like first in the canal, but just from what you're saying, any rational person, left, right, center, it doesn't matter. That just makes sense. Okay, we have to get back to doing business. And Trump is obviously the freaking guy to do it. And speaking of Trump, Pat, if you don't mind, I want to read, I don't know if people read

Donald Trump's Christmas tweet, but and speaking of Trump, Pat if you don't mind I want to read I don't know if people read Donald Trump's Christmas tweet but I'll read it Pat he talks about the canal in the beginning and then Canada and then goes a little bit to the left he goes, Merry Christmas to all including the wonderful soldiers of China who are lovingly but illegally operating the Panama Canal where we lost almost 30,000 people in its building 110 years ago always making certain that the United States puts in billions of dollars to repair money But have absolutely nothing to say About anything also governor Justin Trudeau of Canada whose citizens taxes are far too high But if Canada was to become our 51st state their taxes would be cut by more than 60%

Their businesses would be immediately double in size and there would be a military protected like no other country anywhere in the world. Likewise, the people of Greenland, which is needed by the United States for national security purposes, who want the US to be there and we will. And then he goes on to saying, Mary Christmas to the radical left and all that stuff. But I think he's making a pitch, Pat, and I think the Canada thing is hilarious'm all for the the Panama uh, canal situation. I think it's a great idea. We're gonna jump and say something tom Yeah, you know what? During covid remember we heard that um that the somalis and the huthis were operating

Right there in a little area and adam's nodding. You know exactly where I'm going here with a pronounce it wrong. Djibouti. We make jokes about how it's pronounced, but that is the pinch point where container ships go up there to go through the other canal that enabled low cost transport. The Suez Canal, the Panama Suez Canal are the two most critical, kind of see the pinch point right there? That's where the Houthi rebels and the Somali-enabled rebels were there. And if you expand that, go right up there, go up north of that a little bit, you are going to find the Suez Canal. See, it widens up there, but you see that pinch point? They patrol down there and they create problems down there. And by the way, the Suez Canal, see it widens up there, but you see that pinch point?

They patrol down there and create problems down there. And by the way, that led to huge inflation because if you zoom out, these are called the Cape routes. What Pat was talking about is the Cape route around Cape Horn, which is Tierra del Fuego south of Chile. And there's also the other Cape route known as Cape of Good Hope, which is in South Africa. So the shipping containers have to go there. These two canals are critical. We didn't even know we were really talking about the same political dynamic for the

Panama Canal. We were talking about the Suez Canal when at the end of COVID, we had all the rebels there and the container ships couldn't get through and people were saying that it was inflationary to the people of Europe, just trying to get basic goods because they had to have that extra shipping cost line on them. So the canals in modern world, these two canals are critical also to inflation because it keeps shipping costs down for people. So everybody wants to talk about Trump being imperialist? Guess what? He's also trying to keep shipping costs and keep that part of inflation for the consumer. Yeah. Yeah. The moment he said your booty, I got offended. I logged off. But but I'm back. I really like what you just said right there, Tom. When

you start talking about it, I like it. Who did they turn to to help them knock down the Somali pirates? I'm not interested in a jabuti turning around. I'm not I'm not turning into anybody Tom. I'm Mary I'm not interested in jabut, but Adam, please. I'm trying to stay civil here So what is up to be the top and we were helping the world in the Suez Canal stay open. Tom, we're trying to get to Adam and Jabuti. You and Jabuti's, Tom. Well, I know you say don't repeat things that have already been said, but I'm gonna have to double down on that Jabuti straight up because what we learned during COVID is the supply chain is a massive, massive deal. And I'm glad that you kind of gave some context to why what Trump is talking about is so

important, because to me, this sounded like almost like, what is this? Is this a ramblings of a crazy person or is he crazy like a fox? Because you said this is one of your top five issues that I'm processing what you said, PBD, because if you go according to polling in the United States, citizens are thinking border, immigration, cost of living, inflation, crime, abortion, healthcare, wars. I didn't have the Panama Canal on my bingo card. This was not something that Trump campaigned about, but aha, aha. If it comes down to the supply chain and fair trade

and free trade and China and Djibouti, it's starting to make a lot more sense now. So PBD, let me ask you a question. These three things that he's talking about, we're gonna make Canada the 51st state. Oh my God, it's going to make Canada great again. All right. Greenland, where the hell did this come from?

We talked about it, I believe, in 2019. You tried to buy Greenland. They said they're not for sale. And this Panama Canal thing, which you've touched on before. If you can lay out likely, somewhat likely, least likely of those three things, where would you put it? Panama Canal, buying Greenland, and having Canada be the 51st state. What would you say, PBD? Exactly.

In the order you put it. Yeah, I thought so. Panama, Greenland, Canada. And by the way, I think the rest of the world outside of BRICS should support US owning Panama Canal. Tell us, William. It's going to benefit. Look, if right now, whose ideas and method of running the world do you trust? China? Or US?

US, obviously. Both of them can be criticized, but at least we, when we argue, we argue publicly. Everybody knows our drama. Nobody knows China's drama. Good point. We're not in China. YouTube's not in China. Facebook's not in China.

There's no free press in China. We don't know what the hell they're doing in China. Everybody knows our drama. Imagine a, remember the Truman Show with the one, Gary. The Truman Show. Guess what? That show is about showing someone's personal life. US is the Truman Show. Everybody sees our drama. So who would you rather have control Panama Canal? Us right now. Imagine if Panama Canal, do you not think Trump behind closed doors is thinking that China is planning on funding

Panama Canal to take control by the way you ask if China ends up taking control of Panama you're screwed Let me say this again to you if China takes control of Panama Canal. You are screwed. Are you watching? Everybody in the US is screwed if China takes control of Panama Canal. This is not even a joke because imagine, so now play the card of tariffs. Hey China, if you do this, we're going to put tariffs on you.

Oh, go ahead. If you do that, I'm shutting down any exports from Panama to US for the next 30 days. Go ahead and put the tariffs on the US. You lose your tariff card. The only way your tariff card has power is if US owns Panama. I think we need to find a way to get this thing done. I talked about this a little over a year and a half ago. I absolutely love this idea, but let's get to the next story here Let's get to the next story here. So

New York subway women burned to death by a Sebastian Zapata Rob if we have that I don't know if I even want to play the clip I don't want to play clip but what we could do Rob is I'm gonna go to the story I'm gonna read it if he can show a picture of it Rob that'd be great if we even have just a picture to show what happened there so Sebastian Zapata 33 year old migrant from Guatemala was charged with first and second degree murder and first degree arson for allegedly setting a woman on fire abroad a stationary f train

at the Coney Island Stillwell Avenue subway station in Brooklyn. Surveillance footage showed Zapata calmly approaching the woman, who may have been sleeping, setting her on fire with New York City Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch describing the act as one of the most depraved crimes one person could possibly commit against another human being. Zapata, previously deported by US immigration and customs enforcement ICE on June 7, 2018 under Trump, after illegally crossing into Arizona, re-entered the US on an unknown day.

According to ICE spokesperson, Marie Ferguson, after his arrest by the NYPD, ICE plans to issue an immigration detainer at the location where he is being held. This happens, Rob, after Governor Hokel, if you have that clip, Rob, where she's walking around the, what do you call it, the subway. She's saying you have nothing to do about it. Vinny, I'm about to come to you. Rob, if you can play that clip with Governor Hokel. And Vinny, I'm coming to you. Rob, if you got the clip, go ahead and play the clip.

Oh, you don't have the clip because she's actually walking around. I did say, I think I sent it to you too, Robbie. There's a clip of her. Um, if not, hold on. Yeah, Robbie, you can just go to action. You can find it right there Just put your cover Okay, all right about why he's looking for it you're gonna see in the video that she's walking with security on guards like it's all it's all a show because at 340, she says it. Think about the timing.

At 340, she goes, subways are getting much safer, and at 536, this woman is burned alive by this freaking illegal freaking demon. And the sad reality, Pat, I'm going to get into it, is that people were there, and someone might have stopped this girl from getting lit on fire watch was sleeping probably from working her ass off all day but nobody wants to help Pat nobody

wants to help because they're gonna be scared that they're gonna be arrested and and just like well if they kill this guy vaccine if they shot him or whatever they're gonna be labeled a racist and they're gonna be dragged all over media and be seen as like racist and horrible but besides this Pat I think this guy deserves the death penalty because if not this illegal who doesn't belong in the country is gonna get paid tax dollars our tax dollars to keep him alive for the rest of his life and again and I know I'm gonna sound like a broken record pack, but at this point, I don't care because you know who

I am and you know who my enemy is. Alejandro Mayorkas, okay. This dude, Trump kicked this guy out. He's back in the country because of Alejandro Mayorkas. He's up in a freaking hotel with our money, okay, our tax dollars, all right. He should be prosecuted, Alejandro Mayorkas, because the damage he's caused, we haven't seen the full extent, by the way.

Besides the illegals, all those terrorists, all the thousands of terrorists that are here at PBD, they're just waiting for the green light. They're waiting for the okay to do it. And on Sunday, this little rat, Mayorkas, admitted that his deputies could have blocked more migrants at the southern border, but he didn't okay This is ridiculous. Okay enough is enough especially when it comes to New York It is it just me Pat on the day of that week that this happened There were five separate stabbing incidents on the train in New York City But everybody acts like it and we're going down there as a spit in the face and I think the Tom Holman the

borders are even mentioned something about her being unbelievably ridiculous what she did the shame shame on her Rob if you got the clip if you can play it because I think the timing of it the audience to see this with the clip. Click on it. Persian music played. two-year-old or first of all, we're going to need to go. Which is why we've added somebody for National Guard over 250. That makes sure that your ride is safe. Okay, so you know what's on you while this is happening.

So Tom, go ahead. You so now give me final. I got 15 to say if you've got the National Guard helping you do anything that means you have failed as a governor because it means your state and local law enforcement are insufficient or Improperly trained or constrained because you won't let them do certain things So you get the National Guard when the problem is bigger than you can handle That's what she's got on the subway. So the mere fact she's got national guard, but I'm going to go to somewhere else. Says Kathy Holkle beat Lee Zeldin in the closest gubernatorial election in, in 20 years, going

back to 94. She won 53 to 47 over Lee Zeldin. If if you take a look at the way the precincts lined up, if the governorship had been up right now in November when Trump was elected, when you see the compression that happened, there it is, 53-47. When you see the compression that happened in the Trump election of how close it was for Trump, he lost New York, but it was far closer. Zeldin would have beat Hokel four weeks ago, would have beat her. So now what I'm looking at is New Yorkers, 2026 is coming. You need conservative leadership in the governor's mansion, number one.

And number two, this situation, this is her Willie Horton moment. Michael Dukakis had a furlough program and Willie Horton got out in Massachusetts in 87, 88 and killed again. And he was absolutely pilloried as you should have been at the polls. Kathy Hoco, this is your Willie Horton moment. You have released people out that were deported. You have castrated your own police force and not let them do things that need to be done. And you've got the National Guard at US taxpayer expense bailing out New York. New York citizens,

26 is coming. The midterms are coming. If they had elected a governor right now, Pat, Zeldin would have beat Hokel right now. It's coming. Change change is coming New York Let me ask you a question. Let me ask a question for some of us that were watching that video Who've seen the video people are standing around Was anybody doing anything? No anybody jumping So let's ask the question that nobody asked. Why didn't anybody jump in? ask why didn't anybody jump in? Every question becomes if I jump in I'm gonna be criticized, my life's gonna be over, I'm gonna be Daniel Penny'd, do I want to go through that? But the reality of it is based on how and who you recognize as a hero and a demon, the media sold Daniel

Penny as a bad evil person. So guess what? People are afraid to be Daniel Penny's. By the way, if there was a Daniel Penny there that we turned him into a hero for protecting someone's lives and other people's lives, somebody would have jumped in there right now because they want to be the next Daniel Penny. But no, because you don't want to turn the hero making machine mainstream media gets a part of the blame for that woman no longer being

here with us mainstream media gets a part of the blame for that woman whoever she is I don't know her background but she's someone's daughter she's someone's sister possibly and she's someone's daughter, she's someone's sister, possibly, and she's someone's spouse, possibly, she's someone's friend, she's someone's cousin, but because you crucify, you know, in media terms, Danny O'Penney, everybody's like, ooh, I'm not going in there, I'm not going in, what are you gonna do to the guy?

I'm not gonna do nothing to the guy, I'm not gonna jump in, I'm not gonna jump in there. You are preventing the next heroes from rising up and you're giving birth to more jokers from the movie Joker Joaquin Phoenix because that's your hero New York that's your hero your hero is that not Daniel Penney and so somebody is looking at that you know what parents are saying honey honey don't do anything son don't do anything don't do anything no no no don't jump in there babe no no no don't do

anything to the guy don't do anything you know what they're gonna do don't do it come here instead of hey what do you want to do it's a shame it's an absolute shame to see how you handle yourself where we forget who the true heroes are, final thoughts before we go to the next story. Yeah, you know, I'm in here in New York as we speak. I was on the subway two days ago coming in and out of the city. And this is something that people are talking about specifically on the subway and in the subway in New York City. It has a famous phrase that we've all heard before.

But a lot of people are scared to do. If you see something, say something. But beyond that, beyond saying something, do something. Here's this absolute lunatic who was already deported, right? Guatemalan immigrant thrown out, allegedly, allegedly he was living in a shelter on drugs, drinking, and he would actually lose his mind, people are saying, goes up to a woman, apparently, allegedly she was homeless, sleeping on the subway card, and nobody did anything. And they're calling it, like you said, PBD, the Daniel Penny effect.

The Marine veteran who stepped up as a hero hero you talked about the hero making machine who saved how how many people's lives who knew how many people's lives did he do so they're trying to track down family members for this woman that lost her life you're talking about the hero making machine here he is right here we play in this video no you're not no this is just him before i think this is after the after the fact that he already told her. So you talk about the hero making machine, PPD, Daniel Penny, by the way, completely innocent after his day in court. But a lot of people saw what he went through, dragged into court, criticized, taken months, if not years of his life away to basically be set free.

Meanwhile, juxtapose that with the same thing going on New York City with this guy who's the darling of the left. What's his name? Luigi Mangione. Point blank. I'm not even saying allegedly. I think it's pretty clear. Kill the United CEO, Brian Thompson. But this comes back to me to one thing. Everything that happened with the girl called Lake and Riley. Okay, here's a red blooded American. She was a nursing student at UGA. Her head was freaking bashed in with a rock by a Venezuelan illegal migrant who quote unquote went hunting for women. We saw we read the letter on the PBD podcast, the letter to her future husband.

Are you kidding me? So there's a rallying cry for many Americans with common sense that are saying, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no with this. So we're going to see what happens here in New York. I know that we're calling out Kathy Hochul, but Eric Adams, what's going on? I don't know what's happening with him. Apparently, he's working on a deal with Trump from what I'm hearing that there might be some pardon in store if Trump can help get some of these illegal migrants out of the sanctuary city. But New York is not the same city that it used to be. I'm here right now and you can feel it in the air and it's impressive. I don't want to move on. I want accountability.

Listen, I know we keep talking about this. Accountability. This guy is illegally here, should not be here. And this isn't a one off. How many times does this have to happen to where we have to go? Because mind you you the border As we speak it's still open they haven't changed anything some visited for another month So the borders are comes in but it's just it's still happening and they're still coming in and there has to be

Consequences and Pat you call this about a month ago that guy deserves the death penalty about a month ago that guy deserves the death penalty. End of story. If he's convicted, because I mean we all know he did it, he's on camera, he did it, he has to lose his life. Okay? Because or not they're gonna keep doing it. They're gonna keep doing it because you know what? They're gonna be put in jail and we're gonna pay for it for the rest of his freaking life. We're paying to keep that guy breathing while this poor girl burns to death and one of the worst ways that you could freaking die, burning alive and he's making videos of himself and posting it. That's unbelievable, bro. Unbelievable. January 20th can't come any faster. It can't. There's no question there and Tom, what are you going to say something?

I want to go to the next story. I was just saying, getting back to your original point, this is Marxism. AOC point blank said she blamed weeks ago, Daniel Penny was to blame for the subways being unsafe Marxists want revolution. So someone that it goes out and kills and does this is a tool in their wars, the war they see from their side. You can't fail. Yeah. No, you see. Go ahead.

Go ahead. AOC gets cornered two days ago and her security detail whisked her away. She did not answer the question. You said Daniel Penny makes the subways more unsafe What about this woman that just burned no one jumped in she didn't answer the question She was whisked away got by her security So she's been confronted twice that I have seen by independent journalists that are trying to get a comment from her on the burning She won't talk about it after weeks ago. She point-blank said Daniel Penny is making things more unsafe

Is this it right? Oh this ago she point blank said Daniel Penny is making things more unsafe. Is this it right? Oh, this is. Ossio Cortez. Your. Yeah. So your district is suffering under the pressure of the border crisis. So I'm sorry.

Trying to get through the door, man. Don't touch me. What? Your your district is very much suffering through the border crisis. Why will you not? No. Stop! Stop!

Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop!

Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Yeah, you did positive. Not a care in the world, Pat. Not a freaking care in the freaking world. Let's go to the next topic.

Next topic I want to go to is Don Lemon is interviewing somebody on the streets, okay? And they're going back and forth about how much mainstream media this guy consumes. And he says nothing. This African American astute, great communicator, having a very respectful exchange with Don Lemon, and here what ends up happening. I think this is phenomenal.

More and more Americans are starting to sound like this Rob, if you can play this clip, that'd be great Who is the real president-elect you think? Donald Trump one I believe Democratic lawmakers in Washington are calling Elon Musk president Musk now and they're saying Donald Trump is the vice president or the head of communications What's what's what's what's wait a second? No, no one said that really have you not watched him paid attention? Absolutely not I'm paying attention to what I'm doing during my day so I can try and get a better life and get ahead Okay, do you have your phone with you? I do why don't you Google right now?

Yes, tell me president Musk and see what comes. No, but that's already a loaded question. You realize don't give me the sources Axios business insider. Oh, we don't trust any of these the common man doesn't trust any of this ABC News Washington Post New York Times will keep the Atlantic. I don't trust any of this. ABC News, Washington Post, New York Times, The Atlantic. I don't trust any of these. I don't trust any of them. We're the common man. We don't trust any of these. No one trusts the government. No one trusts the common news. We don't trust any of that anymore.

Independent news, we are the ones that own the news now. People trust me. They don't trust MSNBC because I care and I'm actually one of them. I can't disagree with you. Okay. I get a lot of people coming to me saying I only watch, I don't watch corporate meat anyway. Vinny. I think dude, the first thing I thought Don Lemon just got pissed off because he's trying to holler at the guy. But it's's like can you fall from grace more than Don Lemon? The guy is freezing his balls off in the cold asking questions in the street. I think it's like it doesn't get worse than that from one of the main faces of CNN now you're groveling in the street and you're still getting your ass handed

to you. It's like at what point is somebody like that like Don Lemon needs to hear this. Dude just give it up. Just stop what you're doing. You're rich. You're married. Grab your husband. Go skip into the freaking sunset because it's over and the fact that he's in the street I do respect that you said that he's actually posting it to showing his ignorance but it's over. Mainstream media is over but these little people are just hanging on and grasping on because Don Lemon still wants to be on television. He wants it still wants to be relevant, but Don it's over. And I'm sorry, if you're trying to holler at the guy, he didn't want you.

I think it's pretty obvious. I think the star of that clip wasn't Don Lemon. The star of that clip is a citizen that says, I'm just trying to do my, to live my life and get a little bit better. I don't trust any of this. And that is a message they don't want to hear. The star is that guy just speaking up and pushing back and getting a little out saying, No, no, no, no, no. You understand, we don't trust any of that. I'm just out here trying to do my stuff, trying to make my life better. That's the star. That's the American citizen that they don't want to hear from. Adam.

Well, credit goes to the guy that started this whole conversation. PVD, when you basically called it a few months ago, where the media would come out there and basically say it's president Elon Musk, Trump is not the one running the country, Elon's the puppet master, and here's a living, breathing example of Don Lamon getting out there on the streets, freezing his tokes off, going out there, and parroting the same things that we've been talking about, that the media's been talking about. What was so interesting to me is that every time Don Lemon read the media outlet, Axios, oh, Washington Post, oh, CNN, oh, as if that was like the zinger for the mic drop.

And then the guy is like, yeah, I don't trust any of those mother suckers. We trust IndiBlood. We trust citizen journalism. We trust podcasters. And oh, oh, here's some data for you. The trust in media is at an all-time low, 31%. But if broken down by a significant party, Democrats trust the media 54% high level of trust.

Independence, 27%.%, Republicans only 12%. This is coming from the 1970s when trust in media was 70%. Oh, how the mighty have fallen. Yeah, you know what it is. I love the fact that Don posted this, that the rest of the world gets to see and react to, which means he doesn't have a thin skin To at least have people laugh at him and disagree with them good for him at least at this point I don't know what he's gonna be doing next

but the concept of citizen journalism is Increasing in ways we've not seen before this started 10 years ago 14 years ago When it was like vice and you know, what was the When when people were going into the streets of New York to go against wall speak Right Was that they I'm a millionaire and I'm this and what's what's your problem with it? Right and that one time that he got millions of views

I like what's going on. I like the direction that's going right now And I actually think one of the biggest victories Trump's camp can have is to increase trust in an administration I'd love to see that happen and I'd love to see some of these assets that people are calling toxic CNN toxic MSNBC toxic will have somebody else purchase them that are not toxic and help revamp that brand right have somebody else do it I mean when you look at it right now the list the story comes out Toyota donating a million dollars to Trump's inauguration what What? Bezos, Sam Altman, Zuckerberg, Ford is giving a million dollars fleet of vehicles to Trump's inauguration, contributing to that inauguration. Are you

kidding me? Like what direction we're going? My hopes are that we trust more, but in order for us to trust more, the establishment people that have been brainwashed to think they're above everybody else because of a piece of paper they got from Columbia have to indirectly be exposed, not eliminate it, just be exposed. And that's going to keep happening by average day-to-day people. Adam, final thoughts? We're going to the next story.

You know who the big winner is here? The average everyday person. And specifically what Pat always talks about, free market capitalism. What's the common theme that we're seeing here? The average everyday person and specifically what Pat always talks about, free market capitalism. What's the common theme that we're seeing here? Oh, people don't trust the media? Boom, they trust podcasts now. Oh, there's so much crime going on in California. Boom, everything is now worth 951 bucks. All right. All right, cool. Now you're in the back of cop car. Two women are discussing, hey, you didn't understand that stealing is a felony now? Okay, we gotta do this.

Stephen A. Smith basically saying, oh, I don't know about this Democratic party. Small businesses making effects. Gavin Newsom, where did $26 billion go, buddy? Free market capitalism, and the market will tell you if you're doing right or wrong, and all the losers are getting washed out. I got two stories to get through before we wrap up with the time that we have.

This story is disturbing. Parents, I'm telling you in advance, it's about two husbands that adopt sons that abuse the son. So if you don't want your kids to hear this, dismiss them for a second and let's go through the story together. I do think we need to talk about the story. Husbands who abused adopted sons in House of Terror's slapped with massive prison sentence. William and Zachary Zulok, a Georgia couple, were sentenced to 100 years in prison without

parole after pleading guilty to multiple charges of sexual abuse after their two adopted sons, including aggravated sodomy, incest, and sexual exploitation of children. The crimes came to light when the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children tipped authorities about homemade child sexual abuse material – CSAM – linked to the Zulox IP address, investigators found surveillance footage and electronic evidence including graphic images and messages documenting the abuse. District Attorney Randy McKinley described the Zulox home as a house of terror stating the depth of defendant's depravity, which is as deep as it gets, is not greater than the result

of those who fought for justice and the strength of the victims in this case. By the way, Rob, this is not even the full story of it. If you go to New York Post with the story to read what else is in this story, these guys were selling these boys for other men to abuse their adopted sons. Think about this story. So the question becomes, yeah, this is the one, if you can go a little bit lower, Rob, keep going a little bit lower, keep going a little bit lower, lower, lower, 34, 3600 years, keep going, those are the two of them defendants, keep going lower. The two brothers were 12 and 10 years old. The couple raised them under this cash, but the

Fritz Chavez, a government employee, had a dark secret. Zachary worked in banking and William was a government employee. The couple were regularly forcing the boys to have sex with them and it was sure the abuse, feel it, pornography, keep going lower. Yeah, love, love. I could do shirts, Rob. Evidence showed that they even begged about the abuse to twisted friends with one telling police Zachary once sent a Snapchat message reading, I'm going to F my son tonight, stand by along with images of the boys being abused. And they allegedly used social media to pimp the boys, least two men in the prey local pedophile sex rings the couple were arrested in 2022 both of them pleaded guilty child molestation

act or enemy so you can you can stop this one here so here's my question for you rap if you can run a poll okay what should happen to these guys a hundred years or death penalty because just yesterday I watched a mother with two daughters talking about one of those 37 people that had a death penalty that Biden changed to life sentences, okay, and some of them raped children who were on death row and he flipped it and the parents and the daughter are like, we never got a call from the president on how we felt about this. You just flipped it on us and we were feeling like we're going to get our, you know, obviously

nothing comes close because that person's not in your life right now. They're no longer with you. Imagine these two boys being adopted, 10 and 12 years old. What should happen to these two guys? There's a lot of questions here, by the way. There's some will even speculate to say, can a gay couple be able to adopt kids? Some people go as far as that.

If you just go 80 years ago, 40 years ago, 60 years ago, when they did a survey by Gallup on what percentage were comfortable with this it is a very Very small percentage compared to what it is today But to me what should happen to these guys worst-case scenario what kind of example should happen to these two men Do you know what happens if you put them in jail and others find out what they did to these two boys? Do you know what they're gonna do to these two men? find out what they did to these two boys? Do you know what they're going to do to these two men?

Do you know what they're going to do to them? But the reality of it is, is that a hundred year life sentence enough for the next gay couple to not want to be tempted to do something like this to a boys that they adopt? What is the right decision to be made here, Tom? What do you think? I think there are cases where you look at it and you wonder if the reform is even possible. I mean, remember, we call them prisons now, but once upon a time, they were deemed to be correctional facilities where you would go to debtors' prison and to work your way out of debt, basically doing all this work and everything to get out. We're past that. Federal prisons now, I look this up so you can check me on this, Rob.

Federal prisons right now run about $120 a day or $44,000 a year. So you say to yourself, okay, hang on. If someone is not redeemable and you don't think that there can come back and they're what 40 years old and they lived the 80 years in a prison, you've got 40 years times 44,000. So the U S taxpayers are going to have a, there it is 120. Yeah. 116, 120 right on it.

So basically if these guys live to 80, it's going to toss the taxpayer $1.8 million each by my quick. So $3.6 million. So the first question is, are they even redeemable? The second question is society is now going to pay almost $4 million to keep them in prison. And then the next question is, do you run into something where you say, you know what, you know, this is you've crossed the line here. It's time to use capital punishment in other ways than an eye for an eye. And I think you look at it and say, you know what? If you were to ask some of these prisoners that are lifers, do you want to stay in the prison system or would you like to opt out? What do you mean? Would you like to top out? You get cancer in certain countries. You can get an assisted suicide. Would you like to top out? Otherwise, you're going to be here for 40 years and you're

going to get incredible abuse because prisoners are not kind to child molesters. They are not you look in the US prison system, that seems to be the one area that all the prisoners are united on. And you know what? The child molesters have horrible things happen to them. I'm talking about beatings, punishments, a lot of things. So these guys may not make it past 60. Someone may shiv them in prison. Shiv is a prison term for creating a knife out of something and killing someone. And so I think you look at it, you say, guys, you know what? You can opt out. It's going to cost us $4 million to take care of you,

or you're going to be... We're going to close one eye and let these prisoners take justice on you. you're going to be, we're going to close one eye and let these prisoners take justice on you. Come on, dude. I mean, but do you go all the way to capital punishment? I'd love to put it to a vote of the people the same way the California people voted on that. Put it to a vote of the people. What do you think? I'm asking you, what do you think? I don't, I don't think they're redeemable. And I, I see a path to lethal injection here

Personally, I do okay Vinny your thoughts Well, first I want to just state the obvious that the LGBTQ AI plus whatever community They've been having a freaking pretty bad run for this past four years, especially under an administration that hangs that freaking disgusting flag uh by the white by the american flag in front of the white house, I mean the majority of the last uh mass shooters especially schools have been in the lgbtq community the sexualization of the youth drag queen story hour uh kids stripping at gay clubs, which we've seen it, that's in the LGBTQ community. I think it's disgusting that children

are the most neglected group in this country. We have hundreds of thousands of them coming into the country, nobody knows where the hell they are, you know what I mean? You have them getting sexualized left and right, nobody gives a damn, and this couple, Pat, this couple, and you were asking because a lot of people are like man did they need rehabilitation they need there

is zero of rehabilitation for a freaking pedophile that you know me I'm almost sober a year and almost seven months okay I was an alcoholic all right but you know what it's not past tense you're always an alcoholic okay you don't get cured you still know that that thing is there that alcohol is there you mean to All right, but you know what? It's not past tense. You're always an alcoholic. Okay, you don't get cured You still know that that thing is there that alcohol is there. You mean to tell me that disgusting Evil thing that's inside them as a pedophile that's gonna go away. It doesn't go away They're always gonna be those people and they're always gonna freaking want it So something needs to be done with that and I said this before in the past that about a check

Tom is it at a Matthew chapter 16 verse eight? This is the Bible, this is God. When it comes to hurting the youth, it's better for you to tie a millstone around your neck and throw yourself into the depths of the ocean. You might as well kill yourself, which is an unredeemable sin to mess with these freaking kids, Patrick.

I think there's no curing them. And like you said, they go to prison, they might be protected, they might get killed. But I think there's nothing helping these people. And I think we need to take care of them plain and simple and set an example. Adam? Yeah, well, we also the movie The Sound of Freedom, right? And we met one of the producers and the director. And the biggest issue I had with the movie was there was no issue. It was completely understandable, and it was completely something

that needed to be addressed. However, the issue I do have is how the media portrayed this movie as some sort of QAnon conspiracy, as if, oh my God, these types of things don't happen. PBD, you said on the podcast a few weeks ago, I think just 2023 alone, there was, I think, 375,000 reports of missing children. Something insane, right? How many people fit into a football stadium? 60,000, 80,000, 100,000? These are five to 10 football stadiums

worth of missing children. Are you fricking kidding me? And then we see this picture of this couple in their pride flag family home agenda, whatever that was, as if yeah, everything's totally normal. So yeah, you know, I think you asked the question, what should happen to these people? out castration done you're losing your Johnson sorry guys you're never going to be able to do this again and by the way Pat Tom touched on this in the prison system and the correct and correctional facilities there's an unwritten code in PBD you've interviewed mafia criminals drug dealers the whole lot at the top of the list at the criminal pyramid in terms of payback from fellow inmates inmates its Crimes against children and sex offenders no doubt beyond that snitches informants former law enforcement

Below that the weak and vulnerable vulnerable below that at the top of the list are these sex offenders? These guys are gonna get what's coming to them no doubt but adam but adam this is a little bit different yeah pbd go ahead well i'll take it adam you mentioned the sound of freedom all that that that's a separate issue this is this is a gay couple adopting boys this is and i get where you're coming from i think that's horrible what they did with the son of freedom. But this is the issue at hand is should gay couples, gay men, through gay men, be able to adopt two boys? Because then that opens up a window of possibility. I mean, they're the same sex as these guys. These people are not related to them.

They're getting incest charges, but incest, that isn't your blood. These kids, these boys aren't your blood. And then if they get older, are you going to be sexually attracted to them? Because they're not your kids. These are strangers' kids that you paid for. You bought these kids basically from the state, because you have to go through all the paperwork and all the licensing. But they're not your kids. So at one point, you're going to be show these freaking kids with their jingling is hanging out. That's a that's a line where I don't know, man. That's a that's a touchy touchy touchy subject for me. That's that's wrong. I have very strong opinions about this very. And I think there needs to be a

hardcore pain towards someone that does something like this for you to not want to replicate it. It has to be extremely painful in this example because you know the people that also proved for them to get the kids what kind of background check that you did did you do on them? Yeah. Because let's just say if I'm a bank and you give somebody a two million dollar loan for a house, how do we do the audit on them? How do we do the underwriting? What signs did you look for? Outside of the credit score, what else did we see? Income to debt ratio, what else did you look through? How much cash savings did they have? Did they get fired recently? Did we call reference checks? What

do we do to give these guys $ million dollars for a loan that after three months They can't make a car, but they can make a mortgage payment So what is the underwriting process for a gay couple to be able to adopt a son? What did they do? What is the problem? I want to know the depth of that process so much before we move forward and say yes to it and a certain level of accountability where boys are going to be interviewed every month to say how's the experience, what's going on, and for about a good three-year period until you get this, the boys need to come and be reported on how they're doing and checking them out to make sure they're

good, they're healthy until afterwards. They're like, okay, cool, it's been three years. At this point, typically it takes us six months to find that that you're good at this point of the process in the insurance space they call it the incontestability clause for the first two years I can't look at everything I want to have incontestability clause if I'm giving you two innocent boys for you to raise I want to check you're doing your part like you know in us when an illegal and when somebody that's here illegally marry somebody that's a US citizen,

and they check to see if they really love each other to make sure they give the citizenship to the husband, you know, that whole process? You know, through and through. If we're doing that, what's more important to follow up on? Boys being, it's like a no brainer to me for us to follow up on this, because I'm sure some do a great

job at it, but that would be it. Guys, I gotta go. I gotta go to the next story. We can't do this. You guys keep saying you wanna say stuff. Okay. So next story here to go on is, we'll do one last one here before we wrap up. Rob, can you pull up the tweets and the story of Bobby Kennedy about what he wants to do with Big Pharma?

This is another one that's a top ten on my list guys. So New York Times story comes out RF Kennedy jr. Wants to ban drug ads on TV. It wouldn't be easy Let me get this straight This guy wants to ban Big Pharma from advertising on TV by the way if this gets approved It's the kiss of death for MSNBC For NBC for ABC for any of those guys Rob if you go to the top of it Rob on that tweet It shows how much money these guys spent advertising

if you remove my there you go in 2023 big pharma spent 15.58 billion dollars on advertising so think about how many people's salary is being funneled through big pharma to CNN to somebody funneled through big pharma to MSNBC to somebody. Imagine how many people's salary is being purely funneled, funneled from Big Pharma to them, and a middleman is these media companies. What would happen if that 16 billion dollars give or take is gone? Who loses money on them? What happens to a lot of these guys' salary? Does that automatically make a company like CNN go from being worth a billion and a half to being worth a half a billion dollars? What happens all of a sudden if you don't have big formal

financing anymore? Where do you get your money from? Where does it literally come from? If Bobby does something like this and this gets passed down, by the way, this is the kind of stuff that if you're pushing this, by way this was also my top five list I talked about this would be vague when I sat down with him a year and a half ago I talked about it with this guys for the last two years this was so important if this goes through Bobby Kennedy needs full-time security around them yep if this goes through you guys ever seen a movie Gladiator, where Russell Crowe is about to eat the soup and the other guy eats the soup, the big guy to make sure they're not

going after him? Somebody needs to eat everything that Bobby eats before Bobby eats it, because Bobby officially has some of the biggest gangsters lobbyists that are going to be targeting him if he decides to go this direction. Tom, your thoughts, how likely is it that something like this can be passed under a Trump presidency and under a Bobby Kennedy running the HHS? Well, I think the probability is low right now, but it's rising every minute. And what you're saying about CNN, MSNBC, they're so marginal right now. And by the way, it's also happening to Fox. Fox is admitting that cable news is going down. They didn't renew Neil

Cavuto. He was offered a much lower contract, and yet he was kind of this more moderate voice. Guess what? The money's got to come from somewhere. So you're going to have marginal stations like MSNBC, which is for sale right now, but they can't find anybody to buy it. CNN has been for sale. They were walking around with cocktail napkins that had NDAs to buy CNN at the Allen & Company conference. So I said, they did that and it got together. And if you take this money out, there's also something else that happens. The valuation of sports franchises goes down because sports franchises are being lifted up by the value of TV contracts. TV contracts are being supported by $15, $16 billion per year of sports advertising. So nevermind the economic part of it,

but I think there's a 20% chance of part of it, but I think there's a 20% chance of success on this, but I think it's rising every single day because the rest of the world, it doesn't work this way. It doesn't work this way. The rest of the world, Europe, no advertising, even Africa, no advertising, no advertising in Japan, Korea, Australia, Western nations. Now New Zealand, little island off the coast of Australia, they allow it and we allow it. But that's it. That is it. So this would not be an unprecedented move. This would bring the globe into alignment on this. And I'll say it again, I think it's 20% and rising every day, but I agree, Bobby needs protection.

Vinny. David, you said, you know, poking the bear. I don't think it's poking the bear. I think he's walking into the cave with a torch yelling, who wants some? I remember yesterday I mentioned the movie, Michael Klein, which I know you saw what you thought was, you know, we thought was phenomenal,

where Michael Klein is a fixture lawyer and he's going up against this huge pharmaceutical company and these people have that you think about it we're talking about multi-billion dollar almost almost I pushed hundreds of billion dollars pushing on trillion dollar companies you gotta you gotta be careful man this guy this guy look at the history of rfk he's lost his uncle you know i mean he lost his father because he you know they were all voicing to help the american people this is something that i think is extremely dangerous i give him so much

freaking credit because there's people that talk the talk that this guy with the history of murder and assassination in his family he's still stepping up because this guy with the history of murder and assassination in his family, he's still stepping up because this guy is a true genuine believer. This guy cares about the freaking country. He cares about the people. I pray to God that he's protected. But you said it, he has to be extremely careful. That's one of the reasons I believe it's an O'Shaughness opinion that the Biden administration didn't want to give him secret service protection for all that time because they know who he is they know he's a freaking threat but now under under the Trump administration and I'm hoping to God we still got some less than a month left

but that he's protected that and like you said food random heart attack accident in a car we have to be very very careful but I think it's know, when it's too big to rig in that sense, but in this situation, it'd be extremely obvious if something happens to this guy. But I pray for him every single day. So it makes complete sense now why the mainstream media absolutely villainize this guy. And credit goes to who? Donald Trump for bringing him in and said, listen,

I know you're a liberal and you got some crazy thoughts, but come on in and completely embraced. It's very interesting. By the way, who is he the son of? Bobby Kennedy. Who is he a nephew of? JFK. PBD, do you remember that speech we've talked about this? 1962, where JFK gave his speech we've talked about this 1962 or JFK gave a speech about the physical fitness of young Americans and he said there was nothing more unfortunate than to have soft chubby fat looking children who go watch their school play basketball every Saturday in regard to this week's exercise watching instead of doing and we all know the situation, there it is right there, the situation where you have Bobby Kennedy banging out bench presses, talking about being healthy,

eating healthy, getting some sun, working out, being active, being healthy. And then you juxtapose this with this fat, sloppy, overweight, disgusting creature, Dr. Peter Hotez who said, yeah, maybe I should stop eating Doritos, but I'm on my 20th booster allegedly. So the United States, 40% of United States are obese

and 75% of American adults are overweight. It's time for disruption. In the HSS, let's get people healthy and and off the sick Care system and into an actual health care system. Let's get doge Government efficiency. Let's get on the ball. Let's get cash for tell for accountability America get ready for them for some disruption and that's exactly what we need Well, let me tell you this. Tom, you've already gone, haven't you?

You guys want to go twice? Guys, if we do this, we'll be going for four hours. Hey, listen, when it comes to that jabuti, I get it. Go ahead. Did you want to say something? Go ahead, Tom. I just said the 1993 movie, The Fugitive, go back and watch it. It's not so far-fetched, is it?

Harrison Ford's wife gets killed, and that's a whole plot by Farma, who covered up side effects of a drug and then killed a bunch of people. And by the end of the movie, to find out who killed his wife, Harrison Ford uncovers the whole plot. Not so crazy. You killed my wife! Okay. So, Tom, did Tommy Lee Jones and the Fugitive People pay you sponsorship money with all the dollars? Because I don't understand. Listen, while we're talking about getting heavier, a lot of people ate very well last

night, okay? However, one person was working very hard the last 48 hours guys, very hard. And we have to be respectful about it. And I don't appreciate some of these comments you're making Adam. Okay, and when you work as hard as he has, especially this year, traveling from LA to Miami to Australia to Sydney to Djibouti to to South Africa, to Japan, to Leningrad, to Greenland, to even Panama Canal. He doesn't discriminate against anybody. He's had a long week. They've been preparing for this for a long time and

out of his busy schedule he decided to make some time for us and jump on here to say hello to everybody. Rob, if you could do me this favor and if he's not on and his internet isn't good, I understand. Hey! How you doing? Oh my gosh. I am so excited to see you guys again.

They're going to watch this afterwards.

How are you able to get to every single person around the world in that limited time while we're asleep, how do you do that? How intense is that eight hour window that you have? Well, it's a little difficult to understand, but it's multi-dimensional. My deer can get me there so fast and so incredibly quick to get to the top of each roof, and get down the chimney and back up. It's multi-directional, but it's the magic that we have.

And we're gonna be talking a little bit about that magic that we all have within our hearts. And we're all capable of that magic. So don't let me forget, I to talk about that magic that your boys have so so the question with the magics is when when you're out there in North Pole and You know all these people make movies making fun of you guys.
