Adam, what's your point? The future looks bright. My handshake is better than anything I ever saw. It's right here. You are a one on one? My son's right over there. I think I've ever said this before. All right, so we are live. We're doing a podcast here today from DC and a lot has happened the last 24, 48 hours. And you know what is most impressive? Most people are like, you got the job, you're president, celebrate, taking pictures, shaking

hands. This guy gets in at the event with Capital One and he's signing executive orders in front of everybody. And he's already got folks here, hostages and their families in the back from Israel, Hamas, Gaza, and not slowing down at all on day one. So there's a lot of stories to cover with you folks. The commentary about how cold it was and did they do it because of other reasons? Was it because of drones?

Was it because of security reasons? Was it because it was freezing? I can tell you right now, my hands are still swollen. And we're going to tell you about the weather here, how cold it was. Then with Zuck, I think Zuck may want to take a page out of Bobby Kennedy's playbook because you can tell Kennedy's been experienced, Zuck's not, and he's been all over the place. I'm sure he's explaining to his wife and saying babe I was looking at her necklace She had a nice necklace on and I was looking to see what boys at Tiffany's, you know

Was it something else when Zuck is kind of glancing, you know, we'll talk about that all the executive orders that Trump signed Baron Trump We have to just say this he is beyond Trump, we have to just say this. He is beyond loved, admired and you know gets the kind of attention that I've not seen a lot of people get when he walks into a room. Rockstar status. Rockstar status. Last night we went to two of the balls. You guys went to the, which ball did you guys go to? Liberty. You went to the Liberty one. Well, Tom did it, Adam didn't. Adam left you guys. Adam ditched us guys and was chasing skirts. But we went to the what was the one we went to? We went to the Starlight. I gotta show you guys a picture

of who the boys took a picture with which is great. Two boys, two brothers with another two brothers which was kind of interesting. Trump signs an order to withdraw US from the world health organization. All the executive orders'll talk about, Musk's hand gesture that went viral and everyone's talking about that, Lawrence Sanchez chose to wear a shirt that got a lot of attention. Then the Paris agreement, Tom's got a bunch of thoughts on that. Trump threatens 25% tariff on Mexico and Canada effective February 1, punting day one pledge. Aside from that, all the Biden pardons.

It's interesting, when Trump went and gave the speech in the rotunda, and he was talking about how friendly he was being until afterwards, when he gets to the Capital One building, Capital One arena, and he's giving the message. And he says, did you guys know, while I'm up there, being sworn in, Biden pardons his entire family. And Melania told me to give a friendly message and don't say anything about the Bidens. But now that I found that, trust me, we're going to talk about that. It seemed like he was upset.

I got some thoughts on that. And then what else we got? Bunch of clips from Trump. Snoop clip from back in the days, what he said about performing at the event and then him performing today. AOC, she refused to attend, says she doesn't celebrate rapists.

Who says such a thing? But anyways, we'll talk, maybe she's got lots of coming up. And then aside from that, bunch of different things with TikTok, China, something just happened with China which is very interesting, Trump vowing to release the JFK, RFK, MLK assassination files and suspending security clearances for the 51 former CIA contractors who falsely

implied Hunter Biden's laptop was Russian, fake, Vivek possibly leaving Doge to run for governor. Highlights from Rubio Radcliffe and Bondi and Duffy Senate confirmation hearing. And then aside from that we got a bunch of other things that we're going to cover with this as well. One thing that's funny is Biden's final humiliation. Most Americans cannot name a

single success of what he did. Kevin O'Leary offered $20 billion cash for TikTok. And then aside from that, let me see, China population declines for third straight year. Ratings for CNN revenue dropped roughly $400 million. I love what Djokovic did. We may talk about that and we got a few other stories. Now, real quick, last night, the experience,

I say we start off with this, Vinny, since we haven't talked about a lot of different things. When they announced a couple days ago that they're going to do the inauguration inside in the Rotunda, I think everybody initially, your reaction is what? What's going on? What are they worried about? What was your initial reaction when they said they're taking it inside instead of doing it outside? As soon as the coal thing happened, Pat, the first thing I said is Donald Trump is too tough to play this whole, oh, it's going to be chilly, especially with weather reports. But then I started asking, what can make this, has to be a security issue? The fact that we're still up there and still kind of confused Tom with all the drone stuff and might you

People just stop talking about it. It was drones drones drones all the reports and then Somebody on the neck hits me up and goes hey Vinny Just giving you a heads up my family's heavily invested in all these drones and my father has a company and blah blah blah And he thought talking about DJI which is a China based drone manufacturing company that owns 72 to I think 75 percent but I think clarify that for me that days before Pat just days before they changed their their policy on geo fencing which lets you like for instance Pat if you wanted to launch a drone and get near an airport

this thing shuts you down. Now this update three days before the election had something where it just gives you a warning. It says, hey, warning, and then the FAA deals with it, which I was like, okay, that seemed to me more of a possibility. But then obviously we were here, we felt the cold, but I think, you know, God works in mysterious ways and I think the weather was one thing, but I think, because I did see a convoy with Donald Trump coming somewhere, getting on Air Force One for the first time, and the entire convoy had these weird, I think it was Utah that pointed out, and Rob, these black things on

top of the hoods, which what I found out were like deterrents for drones. So either way, Pat, it was not going to be easy. If you can play this clip, so we're in D.C., in the morning we're walking out, okay? Then when we're leaving, so 11.30ish we're walking to the Capital One arena, then I don't know what time we're leaving, 6.30 we're leaving, okay? And get the reaction of Tom on the way there and on the way back Rob if you want to Go on Twitter. It's a clip that I posted on Twitter. You'll see both before and after Let me know when you're on Rob to be able to show it. Do you have it?

Is this the one right here? I what am I looking at? I can't see what you guys are what yes, you know what I'm saying is we can't see where to come Okay, that's the one right there go in and play that clip I know what I'm saying is we can't see where to come. Oh, we see all the way. Okay. That's the one right there Go and play that clip Watch this folks. Okay, so we've been walking for about five minutes and everybody's wondering how the weather is here Good to see you How cold is it? Tom

Thank you guys Vinnie, how cold is it? 10 degrees in the ears. Tom, Tom. Thank you guys for everything. It's 26 degrees and windy and they say that's 10 degrees on your face and your ears. It is freezing. So, lots of people here. Now, half a million people are trying to get into the Capital One building. It was a cluster. It is freezing.

So, doing this for four hours outside waiting they probably made the right move look at this and you're in the Sun yeah crazy now let me tell you I did a video when we first came to the event and I'm doing a video now that we're even to tell you how cold it is still it feels Tom what does it feel like five degrees ten degrees right now yeah it feels like zero to five wind chill on my face and my ears from when I ski it feels like zero Let me let me pre compository. It's to do it was so cold. I couldn't take my ring off my hands were swollen I don't have a ring on right now because my hands are swollen. I can't put it in there

Yeah, it was incredibly cold and I think yesterday with the drivers taking us back to the hotel. I asked the driver question I said hey Just out of curiosity. Do you think it was a right af American guy, family, four kids, local DC guy, he's been here for a long time. I said, Do you think it was the right move to not have the inauguration outside? He says, 100%. People would have gotten hurt. That's how cold it was, Tom. Well, my first reaction was very similar to Vinny's. It was like, hmm, Kennedy had a very cold inauguration.

There's been cold things before, although it was very sunny for Kenny's, but it was still cold. And I'm thinking, ah, is there something else going on here? And I also was looking at the the pictures of the motorcade, noticing they had some new technology there, but they're always trying to do what's called harden the target with more advanced technology and intercepting drones. So I felt like, okay, well, maybe intercepting drones, that's a very real thing right now. Maybe they're trying to do that

in addition to everything else. So I was thinking security, and then all of a sudden I started looking at real temperatures and tracking, almost like tracking a hurricane, tracking the cold air mass over the center US on Weather Channel, Weatherbug, and I was like, wow, this is, wait a minute, this is like 0% humidity, 15 mile an hour winds,

and this, I said, you know what, this is gonna be really cold. My daughter called me and said, I have no, there are no classes today at Rice University and at University of Houston because they had a little bit of snow, some ice on the streets. This is in Houston. So and then when we woke up yesterday I said you know what maybe security was a part of

this, maybe there's some drone thing, but you know what crowds of people out like this there'd be some people that needed assistance. This is really cold. Yeah, Adam. Look I love the fact that we have such different opinions on this because it allows us to have a wide range of the conversation. Like for instance, Vinny, when we left Fort Lauderdale, sunny, 75, amazing weather, by the time we landed, we heard the news, Trump's moving everything inside. We were like, what do we want to do? Should we stay should we go? What do we want to do with that? So what I did was simply just look at the

Weather map weather app and I was like, oh it's gonna be 35 when we land and three days later it's gonna be 10 and You know you talked about the temperature of a well That is I think you said 18 degrees 64.4 Fahrenheit. Okay chill cause When we landed 35 degrees, it's actually above freezing. What's what's freezing 32 degrees Fahrenheit Actually weather's actually okay three days later. I mean it was cold as yeah, so My paranoia was not oh, there's drones. Oh my god. We all know that you got shot in the face I think it's pretty obvious they would like to see this guy not assume office. Yeah, but everything worked out

Okay, but what I will say is this you know you made a phone call you spoke to somebody in the know He's like he said a hundred percent this has to do with weather I want to say he said 100% this has to do with the weather, I wanna say. He said pretty- This is a direct contact, he says 100% has to do with the weather. Cool. Why do you do this?

So I agree with that, but Vinny on the other hand was like, nah, that's great. But what I'll tell you, the flip side is, when we were walking into the arena, Vinny, on high alert, you know we said the future looks bright, but also only the paranoid survive. Yeah. They didn't let anybody bring a bag in.

They didn't let women bring a person. Well, it was Jen. $200,000 worth of purses on the side. So here's my point. Vinnie goes, oh, I don't like this. There's hundreds of purses. Rob has a video. Jen didn't bring her Yves Saint Laurent person there.

So on that respect, I go no, no, no, no, no. His paranoia is perfect for this. Is this a video, Rob? Yeah, yeah, because think about this, video Rob? Yeah yeah because think about this and just to give you guys a heads up just to give you guys a heads up to get to this area guys that's the fencing the security up to this point anything could happen so then there's a when you get to the front zero bags so they just have a designated meaning those bags aren't checked if God forbid somebody wanted to put a device or a bomb inside of this,

it would have been all hell at this. That's my only security. Rob, you can play that video. It's like a 10 second video. So over here, this is the checkpoint to get inside. And they're not letting any bags come in. And look at that. They just piled everybody's bags.

Look at that shit. Yeah. Tom's yelling at me. By the way, the types of bags, I mean Jennifer had to get rid of her LSV bag that I just got her and they're like, look, they're not letting anybody in with bags. They're so worried about it. So security was tight. Part of it I like, the other part that I don't like is the fact that it was on the outside.

Some people are from D.C. A lot of people came here from Virginia, other places, like look, I don't know what's going on, I'm just here trying to protect, but it was a little bit messy, I'm glad they did it indoors. Anyways, let me get to the next story here. Alright, so Rob, then the inauguration happens, okay? And he's up there giving a speech, and by the way, for some of you guys that are watching this right now, two things I want to tell you. Bob, if you're going to go to VTNewss.ai and you go under the leaders bulletin is officially

out on who's doing a good job predicting, everyone's officially got a score. For some of you that are thinking you're very good at predicting, you're going to see who's number one. Okay, Rob, if you want to get up there and just go to vtnews.ai and go on the actual website if you can, Rob. Are you on it? Because I don't see it here. Yeah and go on the actual website if you can Rob. Are you on it? Because I don't see it here. Yeah, hang on one second.

So if you can go to the website and go to the first hundred days. Can the guys in the back pull up my screen please? Okay, so if you go there, this one, if you miss this one, it's out. Will there be an attempt on Trump's life in the first hundred days? Rob, if you want to, you're saying yes. Okay, Rob went yes very quick. Now go to the leaders bulletin on the top right. You see where it says leaders bulletin?

Click on the leaders bulletin. It says leaders board. Can you be available tomorrow? No, refresh. Today is the 21st. Can you refresh? And go back to the home page. You see where it says leaders board right there, Rob? Okay, go back to the first hundred days. Go back to the home page. You see where it says Leaders Board right there Rob?

Okay, go back to the first 100 days. Go back to the first 100 days. See right there it says Predictions, then Leaders Board. I think they need to put that right above first 100 days, Rob. Right above first 100 days, Rob. Nope. Up, up, up.

Scroll up, scroll up. It says, there you go. Okay, you have your score, so let's see where you rank. Let's see where Rob ranks. Rob, look at your ranking on the top right, 487. You're ranked 487 out of everybody that's making their prediction. Connor is first place.

There you go. Second is David. All right, good David. Then Riley. Riley. Then Valletta. Then Dennis Wayne. Tommy boy.

Thomas sixth place. Tom's kind of disappointed for you to be sixth. I thought for Tommy Boy, Thomas 6th place. Tom's kind of disappointing for you to be 6th. I thought for sure you were going to be 1st place. Anyways, for some of you guys that are wanting to participate with these predictions, we're going to go 100 days. Go to vtnews.ai and post your predictions and participate in this. There will be special recognition for those at the end of it.

You're going to want to be a part of this thing here. Anyways, Rob, so the inauguration, he's up there giving a speech. If you can play a couple of the clips, I know we have a few of them, you know, when he addresses there's only two genders, when he addresses a few things, whatever clips you got, let's just go through a few of them, Rob, if you want to line them up. This week, I will also end the government policy of trying to socially engineer race and gender into every aspect of public and private life. Not standing up, not clapping. We will forge a society that is colorblind and merit-based.

Common sense. Biden not clapping. As of today, it will henceforth be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders, male and female. genders, male and female. How ridiculous is it that a president has to say something like that? Yeah, absurd. How ridiculous is it that he has to say something like that? Go to the next clip, Rob, if you got.

So that's one. He's given a message like that in his inauguration. You ready for the next one? First, I will declare a national emergency at our southern border. Why are you not clapping, Kamala? That's not important to you. She still doesn't know where the border is. Joe Biden has no idea what's happening. Look how bad of a look it is that Kamala and Biden are not standing up.

All illegal entry will immediately be halted and we will begin the process of returning millions and millions of criminal aliens back to the places from which they came. We will reinstate my Remain in Mexico policy. I will end the practice of catch and release And I will send troops to the southern border to repel the disastrous invasion of our country There you go Rob so all of this is happening. Let me just read to you guys folks all the executive orders Okay, all of them and then you tell me which one of these was the one you liked the most. So day one, think about it, he just started his job. Literally.

Most people who get in, they want to kind of be like, well, let me get an accomplishment first week, first month, first 90 days, first year. Day one, boom. One after another, here's some of the executive orders you had on day one. Pardon in the January 6th U.S. Capitol attack. Trump pardoned approximately 1,500 people charged or convicted with the January 6th attack. Ordered an end to federal cases against political opponents of the Biden administration focused on helping Trump supporters. Next one. The economy on TikTok signed orders to combat inflation by easing regulations on oil and gas production, Drill Baby Drill, targeting Alaska for expansion, announced 25 percent

tariff on Canada and Mexico starting February 1, paused Congress' TikTok ban for 75 days to seek a U.S. buyer, ensuring national security while keeping the app available. America First pulled the U.S. out of the World Health Organization. And Rob, if you can play that one clip, it's like 13 seconds. He pulled the U.S. out of the World Health Organization and ordered a review of foreign aid spending. If you have the World Health one, just pull it up. It's on Twitter.

Go for it. It's withdrawing from the World Health Organization, sir. What is it? Withdrawing from the World Health Organization, sir? Ooh. That's a big one. So we paid $500 million to World Health when I was here, and I terminated it.

China with 1.4 billion people, we have 350 depend- We have- Nobody knows what we have because so many people came in illegally. But let's say we have 325. had 1.4 billion they were paying 39 million we were paying 500 that just doesn't make any sense seemed a little unfair to me so that wasn't a reason but i dropped out they offered me to come back for 39 million in theory it should be less than that but you know uh and when Biden came back, they came back for 500 million. He knew that you could come back for 39 million.

They wanted us back so badly, so we'll see what happens. Alright, so let me continue. That's a big one right there. Then planned symbolic actions, including renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America and reverting Denali to Mount McKinley, which by the way, Florida came up with the first time ever using the phrase Gulf of America. Immigration and national security reinstated Trump-era deportation policy prioritizing all undocumented immigrants for removal, declared a national emergency

at the U.S.-Mexico border, deploying troops and restricting asylum and refugees admissions, ended Biden's CBP app and suspended the refugee program and pending security review, revoked security clearances for critics like James Clapper, Leon Panetta and John Bolton, withdrew from the U.S. from the Paris climate agreement and declared an emergency, energy emergency promising to drill baby drill, announced plans to eliminate Biden's electric vehicle mandates, froze federal hiring, expect for the military and pause new regulations, empowered Musk to lead the Department of Government Efficiency aiming to streamline government and cut spending, order determination of diversity, equity and

inclusion, rollback transgender protections recognized in only two sexes, male and inclusion, rollback transgender protections recognized in only two sexes, male and female, banned federal funding for transition, services and ordered segregation in federal shelters and prisons by biological sexes, which is again, everything here is common sense, common sense, common sense. Tom, which one of these was the most important one in your opinion? In my opinion, everything you take a look at? Because you look at inflation look at everything and I'm gonna I'm gonna give you a little bizdoc dive here Was drill baby drill and let me tell you why

drill baby drill Increases the supply of oil and gas in the United States Which is going to reduce the price of that oil and gas in United States to US citizens and if oil and fuel Costs less then it costs less for those trucks running around with American products delivering to each other. So we're going to get some savings on delivery costs. We're going to get savings on air, I expect this summer plane tickets will cost less for families going on vacation or businesses that are sending their people around for meetings and conferences and things. I think your drill baby drill was big. It also backs us out of these false reliances

that the Biden administration had made. While we won't drill here and also spend this and then we won't do this, Biden you know there was a very interesting thing that happened with Speaker Johnson, who just before the inauguration, he released, and Pat, I think you know what I'm talking about here, where he was talking to Johnson, and Johnson said, it took me nine weeks to get a meeting with Biden. And when I finally get into a meeting with Biden, Kamala, Chuck Schumer, and Hakeem Jeffries are in there with me. I said, wait a minute, I had asked, it took me nine weeks to get a one-on-one meeting.

And then Biden said, hey, this is a one-on-one meeting. I don't need you guys. And so he sort of dismissed them. And he said, Mr. President, you signed this thing that said we wouldn't, you know, export natural gas to Europe. And Europe's had pipeline. Gee, have you noticed a couple of pipelines that were interfered with? Or maybe a couple of that were interfered with or maybe a couple bombings? You know, and so we want to export gas to help inflation

and the cost to the people of Europe. And it's winter in Europe. They are highly, we talk about heating well in the Northeast United States for winter. Europe needs natural gas during the winter. Otherwise their citizens don't have it. And it's very expensive. Well, guess what? Biden didn't even remember that. And so when you go back to drill baby drill and making us an energy exporter, not only is that anti-inflation and helps the American consumer, it helps so many areas of the economy. Coupled to that, backing of a Paris, the Paris Accord, just remember the word two, two degrees. We're gonna put a target on fossil fuel

because we think, we're not even sure, we think it will keep global warming the way they wanna measure it, which is in dispute itself, within this two degree range. And so I thought drill baby drill and the Paris Accord were very, Paris Agreement were very, very big together because of what it means for the US economy, what it means for the US consumer and US businesses.

And also, remember Kofi Annan used to talk about global warming is nothing, he says, is an opportunity. I don't have the exact quote, but Kofi Annan used to see global warming as an opportunity to redistribute wealth. Oh you pay carbon credits to me you you made too much pollution that you know you you in your country Vinny give me carbon credits. How did that reduce anything any emissions? Nothing. Exactly so it was like this it was like an economic joke so I thought those were my big ones. I love that what's interesting with this before Vinny I come to use the following Rob if you can pull up this chart that Brandon sent to us this morning most people say well

You know all Trump cares about is the oil companies are gonna make money That's what Trump cares about watch this folks when you think about oil profits, Rob I don't know if you have it up or not. I can't see it. Okay, so as long as you guys can see it Because I can't know if you have it up or not. I can't see it. Okay. So as long as you guys can see it, because I can't see it. Where is it? Okay, I can't see it over there, but let me just pull it up. This is the tweet that Brandon had, and then here's the tista. So let me just pull it up.

So look what it shows there on oil, gas, industry revenue in the U.S. from 2010 to 2023, and match it to presidents. Okay? Match it to presidents. So look at that. Under Obama, oil companies were killing it. They were phenomenal. They were doing so great.

Why? Gas prices were higher. Trump comes in, oil revenue drops. You think they like Trump? You think they're sitting there saying, oh, we're going to make more money than ever before? No, they actually made a ton of money under Obama and Biden. So look at this. Next time somebody brags to you about how much money they made, look at under Biden, how much money oil companies made. Look at 21. Look at 22. Look at 23.

You see those revenues? Guess what? It's because the savings goes down to the day-to-day person that instead of spending $4 a gallon, $5 a gallon, if we go drill baby drill, you know what's going to happen to gas prices, Tom? It's going to be a different story. So how do you process this data when you see this? The average person here is all about the rich people, rich getting richer, but this doesn't say that. So if you look at the chart, one of the things I was looking at is you make a good point

about it, but if you zoom in a little bit, his last two years is when Obama took a big swing at fossil fuel. Look at 15 and 16. Those belonged to Obama because November of 16 was the election. So Obama, halfway through his second term, do you remember when he leans over the Vladimir Putin and said, I'm after my election I'll have more flexibility to do other things. Remember that? Yeah. Well, that's what he did here and on energy Those were Obama policies that took the from 14 to 15 to 16

Obama stepped on the head of the oil and gas industry and then you can see it was going up Incrementally over Trump not back to the original number. And then of course, COVID is 1920, 21. So I think there's some truth to that. But there was also Obama stepping on it during his last two years because, okay, Paris accord, all these restrictions, not letting people drill. Remember they held up, we used to hear about permits. We're hearing about permits in LA with the fires, but we used to hear about drilling permits. Remember that? Oh, but we used to hear about drilling permits.

Remember that? Oh, no new permits are being issued. And they wanted to do exploratory wells and geo-surveys in the ANWR, which is up in Alaska, which is rumored to have a ton of oil and gas up there. And Obama kind of stepped on it. So it's a true point about Trump, but also you can take a look at what Obama did as he was walking out the back door. Rob, can you do me a favor and go online on Google and type in the following, type in

gas prices under different presidents. Under different presidents. And then go to images, if you could, and I'll tell you which image to click. Go to the fourth image, top right, red, blue. Can you zoom in a little bit on that? Look at that right there. Okay, that's under Bush goes up look at Barack Obama gas prices what does it hit 368 358 344 358 right and then under Trump gas prices never went above 281 wow that's what you got to look at. And I look at Biden, 310, 406, 347 gas prices.

So that's the point when you're looking at this, you know, if it replicates what happened in his previous four years, gas prices are going down and the average day-to-day family is going to feel it. Vinny, thoughts on the different executive orders? I think it's me and Tom had a conversation about it. I think one of the one top two for me, one of them was the WHO Tom, removing because that it removed World Health Organization. Removing us from the WHO because it's these are unelected global organizations Tom that that have policies on us for locking us down like Tedros, he's the main guy with them. Like I'm so people I don't think you guys understand because if you hear these little hints of all these

flus and all this, was it Peter Hotez warning us of everything coming down to the pipeline? This removes the power from these people to do a global lock everything down, and we already know what they did with COVID. And the other one was the January 6th, the 1500 people. And this isn't, mind you, these aren people that have were burning stuff or doing whatever these are fifteen hundred he mentioned this in his speech a 78 year old grandmother who was just standing there taking pictures of the Capitol he got she gets to go home now to her family I think that's one of the best things that we're gonna get into all the parties

back is people were like how how dare you? And I'll guess what he pardoned Michael Byrd the guy the only death was Michael Byrd shooting Ashley Babbitt and in my opinion Murdering her that was the only death so I'd like imagine all the families of these 1,500 people who were standing around that were getting rubber bullets shot at them and that the fact that he's doing that I saw videos last night of people at the jails celebrating and these people crying because they got to get out of jail so that was my favorite one. Adam how about yourself? I got a totally different take than you guys I respect your your guys answers I don't think it's even close I think

you're both totally off I think you guys those are the things that you mentioned I think those are number five six seven eight It's one of the ones when you picked Tom let me speak. They had a rough night last night guys Adam Adam At the Liberty Ball they but anyways go ahead What was your favorite? What was your favorite? I actually hung out with a woman last night Oh, okay hanging out in a circle. I thought here's the point. Okay, so oh, we're not gonna Oh, yeah, we're just gonna deflect over a new leaf, and I want to know what the audience is when you walk in with your crew I'm not interrupting the old man. Oh, he started it. No. No. I'm crazy guy. I'm just gonna

Give I just want to know what the public thinks is pet brought it up Hold on when you walk into a place with your team with your crew and you're talking me into going which I wasn't gonna Go and we all walk in together, and then you vanish What does that say about you guys? Okay? It says I had to take a leak okay? But it was good walk in you were talking to girls just banish you were talking to girls Okay, good, okay guys. It's you're lucky. I have thick skin over here to our leak you should see a doctor Good Tom the Comedy Act is off the chains these days. The point is this. What is the biggest thing? What is the biggest difference? What a difference four years makes? You said common sense prevails.

I said at the beginning this election the least craziest person is going to win this election. So you know how they say that politics is downstream from culture. Guys, the last four years, think about it, they didn't know what a woman was. They couldn't define a woman. Trump kept on stage and says, guys, breaking news, there's only two genders. Sorry, sorry if I offended anybody. There's only two genders. Four years ago, I didn't know what DEI was. I didn't know what MEI was. I didn't know what ESG was. I knew what a woman was. Matt Walsh, Daily Wire, who we saw and hung out with, came out with a movie, What is a Woman? People couldn't answer the question. Okay, they came up with critical race theory. Hamas, Salma Bin Laden are the good guys now. Gaze for Gaza is all the rage. What is happening here? Then when they start burning the

American flag, no no no no no no. So what happened was people lost their damn mind after Trump took office, after January 6th, during COVID. People lost their mind and all this stuff is downstream of everything. J6, oil, all that. If you don't know the difference between a man and a woman, I'm sorry. We're going to start right there and then everything else will come into place. That's my answer. Well, that's, to me, the biggest thing that you're talking about is the fact that we got back to common sense.

I think that's very important. Did you ever see the clip when the lady goes, excuse me, sir, it's ma'am? Right. It's like, no. Right. And what's weak, now if you ask somebody that lives in California or Texas or Arizona, they're

going to tell you it's the border. If you talk to somebody who goes to parties and skips the guys to go hang out with girls, they're going to say man and woman, gender, right? If you talk to somebody who is on TikTok, they're going to say it's TikTok. If you talk to somebody that is in jail because of J6 and their families are not with them because someone's in jail, that's going to be J6 and their families are not with them because someone's in jail, that's going to be J6. If you talk to somebody who dealt with the manipulation of World Health Organization

and forcing people to do things because the globalists thought, oh my God, here's what we're going to be doing, then you're going to say World Health Organization. But if you talk to somebody that lost a job to another person for diversity and equity and like, wait a minute, I'm better at the job than you. What are you doing? Then it's going to be the, I mean it really comes down to how any of these policies directly impact somebody, but the biggest factor for me was the fact that it was common sense.

Tom, you brought something up and we haven't talked about it because we haven't done a podcast since Thursday, right Rob? Okay. talked about it because we haven't done a podcast since Thursday, right Rob? Okay, so one of the things that was dropped because last, was it Thursday or Friday, we went to a Spotify event. There was a small Spotify event with 25 of us, which I thought was amazing. All in podcast was there. Jason was sitting to my left. Chamath was here.

David was here. Dusty, shout out to Dusty from Spotify. She is amazing. She is fantastic. Amazing. Her, Jordan, they did a great job, but she's something else. And then there was Sager, there was Matt Walsh, there was Lex Friedman on this side. We had a very good conversation together. It was probably one of the best conversations that should have been recorded. Obviously private

meeting and we had a meeting with YouTube and we met the CEO of Google. We had a great conversation with him. We had a great conversation with CEO of YouTube and you know one of the things, both of them, Google and YouTube and one of the things, I think you were there when I said to him, I said look you know Spotify did XYZ, it'd be great for you guys to do more of these things because I think YouTube has a good platform but people don't yet trust to see what's going to happen. It's great that you're doing something like this but yet trust to see what's going to happen. It's great that you're doing something like this, but we don't know what's going to happen. While they're very wise, interview Speaker Johnson.

And folks, this last week we did a video on PSYOPs and how much more information we consume today than ever before. And the problem with the amount of information that we consume today is what? What happens when, you know, you make a lot of money and you're always going to nice restaurants and always eating good food? You become a little bit deaf to good food. You're like, you're used to it. It's no longer like, oh my God, we're going to a nice restaurant versus when I was 13

years old in LA, we went to Sizzler's the first time I thought we were millionaires. I'm telling you, I was like, okay, we made it. But if you have that clip, yeah, this one right here. So Barry is doing a great job and by the way, she always gets information from people. I love what she does. But Speaker Johnson is telling the story about how he couldn't get to talk to Biden. And the reason why I'm getting to this, and Tom, I want to come to you first with this one here, is there's a story in our addendum, which by the way, very soon those of you guys that want to know the notes we look at, you're going to have a way of getting it on Manect and stay tuned, we'll announce it here too soon.

There's a story that comes out that says, Biden's final humiliation. Most Americans can't name a single success. What do you mean Americans can't name a single success. What do you mean you can't name a single success? They can't name a single success, what he did. And Tom will go a little bit deeper into that. But he's saying, I'm trying to get a meeting with the President and I can't. Speaker Johnson, he is like, if something happens to him and to Kamala, he's the president. So I can't get a meeting with Biden.

What do you mean? Everybody is just saying no, no, no, no, no. And then he's telling the story about a moment where he is there with him, Kamala, Hakeem Jeffries, I'll let him tell you the story. This is very, very important for people to realize this. Because due to the amount of information that we're getting, it's like, ahhhh, boom, and we move on. Some of the information is so important that we have to highlight and spend some time talking about it, but we can't because it just moved on. It was so quick.

Play this clip. I would ask you to listen to everything he says and then I'll tell you why this is important and I'm going to show you a chart. Rob, go ahead and play this clip with Speaker Johnson with Barry Weiss. I do stand by it and I say this without any personal animus at all. I mean, I, you know, in some ways actually kind of feel sorry for Joe Biden. I mean, he's in the twilight years of his life. He is not, obviously has not been in charge for some time. And I know this by personal observation and now the whole world knows it. And it's been very very Concerning to me over the last, you know year and a half since I've had this position Can you tell us a story when you say personal observation?

What kind of thing did you see? It's public now because the Wall Street Journal got it and put it on the front page, but January year almost exactly a year ago I had been asked I became speaker in October, and there were all sorts of big national security concerns and everything going on, and I started requesting a meeting with the President, because I'm kind of old school, I'm a constitutional law guy, Speaker of the House should be able to talk to the President,

especially in times of great national interest and calamity. But they wouldn't let me meet with him, and his staff kept getting me excuses. This went on for like eight or nine weeks. I'm sorry, Mr. Speaker, he doesn't have time. Eight or nine weeks? I'm second in line to the presidency, he has time, I need to talk to him like eight or nine weeks I'm sorry miss speaker he doesn't have time eight or nine weeks I'm second line of the presidency he has time I need to talk to eight or nine we had I can't say the

classified parts but we had some big net big national concerns at the time that I was losing sleep over finally I just went to the Hill press corps and said the president is not being allowed to meet with a speaker there's a problem so they started putting pressure on them long story short they finally relented they invited me to the White House I show up and I realize it's actually an ambush because it's not just me and the president. It's also Kamala Harris, Chuck Schumer, Hakim, you know, the whole CIA director, everybody. And then so I walked in the Oval and I know what this is. This is a they're going to hotbox the speaker on Ukraine. Watch this. That's what

it was. This is probably third week of January. We sit down. We're in the midst of it, and the whole conversation, and I'm going, we don't need to have this conversation. The president reaches over, just like this, we're sitting in the, right next to the fireplace in the Oval, and he grabs my arm and he says, the Speaker and I just need a couple minutes together. Would you all just leave us alone? And I looked up on the faces of some of the staff standing around the wall, and they're like, no, he did it. So they, he called it. He's the Commander in Chief, so everybody leaves and he and I are standing awkwardly in the middle of the oval office right over the rug by that coffee table. And I said, Mr. President, thanks for the moments. You know, this is very important. I got some big national security things I need to talk to you about that

I think you know, and what do we do? And, but first real quickly, Mr. President, can I ask you a question? I cannot answer this to, from my constituents in Louisiana. Sir, why did you pause on G exports to Europe? Like I don't understand, you know, liquefied natural gas is in great demand by our allies. Why would you do that? Because you understand, we just talked about Ukraine, you understand you're fueling Vladimir Putin's war machine because they got to get their gas from him, you know. And he looks at me stunned with this and he said i didn't do that i said bingo mister president

you'd guess you did it was an executive order like you know three weeks ago and do that he's arguing with missus president respectfully kind so i go out here and ask your secretary to printed out will read together you definitely did that because all you talk about natural gas yes sir he said no i don't know what you misunderstand he said what i did is i signed this thing to we're gonna we're gonna conduct a study on the effects of

LNG. I said no you're not sir you paused it I know I have the terminal the export terminals in my state I talked to those people this morning you're this is doing massive damage to our economy national security it occurred to me Barry he was not lying to me he genuinely did not know wow and I walked out of that meeting with fear of anything because I thought, we're in serious trouble. Who is running the country? Like, I don't know who put the paper in front of him. Oh my God.

But he didn't know. Listen, you can pause it right there. To me, that's number one. Because the fact, folks, that the last four years, we didn't end up getting into a war. A World War III didn't happen. Shit didn't hit the fan. Whatever you do today, take a moment and pray to God and say thank you. The fact that that didn't happen. Because he was a prop. Akeem Jeffries, Schumer, Kamala, maybe a method through Obama. All of these guys were using him as a prop based on him saying, �I don't know.� What do you mean you don't know?

By the way, I'm a CEO. How many C-suite executives do I have? Multi-six-figure guys that report to me in all the companies combined. C-suite executives. Let's just say five of them. Okay, so if I've got five of them, and how many do you have that are reporting to you? Another five? I got three of them.

Okay, so how many of them, if they needed to get a hold of me, they would get a hold of me? What do they need to do to get a hold of me if they need to have a 50-minute meeting? I ensure that they have access to transparency for emergency orders. If they needed to do it, what would they do? They would text you immediately. Okay, so let's go to a bigger organization. Go to an organization like Apple, Tim Cook.

Go to a bigger organization like Amazon, Andy Jassy or Jeff Bezos. Go to Facebook, Zuck. Go to Tesla, SpaceX, Twitter. Do you think if the number two, to Elon, to Tim Cook, to any of these guys, if they want to have a meeting with him today, what do you think they need to do to get on the call? Eight or nine weeks? That could be the prevention of a war.

What are you talking about? The fact that Speaker Johnson couldn't get on the call. And the reason why this is important, Rabbi, just send a chart to you, it's very important for us to understand this and analyze this, folks, moving forward, because this is the problem we're facing. Here's the study that was done by this article, guys. I think everybody needs to look at this. It's explaining the definition, defining the future of human information consumption, okay?

And this is the problem that we have. Go a little bit lower, Rob, if you could keep going to the first big chart. Keep going. Okay, look at that one right there, folks. Do you see that chart? Here's what that chart says. It says, percentage of waking hours consuming information. Let me say this to you one more time. Look at that chart. This is scary. Vinny, that's the percentage of your waking hours consuming information. In 1900s, it was only 10% of your time.

It was word of mouth, right? People were in the newspaper. Go to 80s. It's 40%. Today, 80% of your waking hours, your consuming information. If you go a little bit above that, Rob, it says the average global consumer spends 82 hours a week consuming information. People say, well, nobody works 80 hours a week. Your brain is working 80 hours a week just consuming information right now. And assuming the average of seven hours of sleep per night, this means 69% of your waking

hours is engaged on consuming information. So here's the question. Somebody sends me something the other day. Two days ago, the guy says, hey Pat, check this out. Look at this guy hanging out with this guy. Look at this guy hanging out with this guy, and look at this guy hanging out with that from the insurance company, whatever, from the previous 15 years ago. And I text back to the contact, I said, signal, and then what is that thing, noise. What do you call this thing that's greater than noise?

Signal is greater than noise. You know what the point was? Hey, stop giving me noise. One of the words for this year, why am I sharing this with you? Speaker Johnson's saying this to Barry Weiss and he's just going, oh, I forgot about what happened. That was just five days ago, four days ago. And maybe the biggest story that was dropped before Trump becoming president, the fact

that Biden was never president. This was all an act and it was controlled. And the Speaker of the House, the number two guy, beyond the President is saying something like this. Tom, for you, when you hear something like this, and specifically the story when people are saying, what is the biggest accomplishment, how do you process all of this? Well, I back, first of all, I think it's horrifying and really unfortunate that only 37% of people surveyed. This was a survey of 1,000 people, so this is a reasonable survey

from a very reasonable organization. Across Democrats and Republicans, only 37% strongly agreed that they could not recall one. 37% said, I strongly feel I can't recall one. Well, what trends or what themes do you remember? I remember inflation and I remember unemployment and I remember his mental fitness. Those are the three things.

It's like when you're talking to a citizen right before the election, remember we covered this. Valuetainment had weekly election countdown shows. And guess what? People wanted to talk about inflation, immigration, and the overall economy in their state. Inflation was personal, blah, blah, blah. That's what they want. So they go here.

But I back up to, and I think that's tragic, that that's all people remember. You know why? Because there's nothing else to remember then go to speaker Johnson Listen very carefully to what happened there. We had Natural gas workers shut down so people with jobs had their jobs Whether it was either furloughs or people shut down Louisiana where they were shipping natural gas out workers hurt furloughs or people shut down Louisiana where they were shipping natural gas out. Workers hurt. We weren't exporting the natural gas, so we're not making money on that.

There is no reason for the US to be doing that. So my greater question, Pat, was who called that shot and how did they get it through the people that were putting that paper in front of Biden? That shot was a non-American benefit. Absolutely not. That somebody got a piece of paper under Biden's hand and got him to sign it. My concern is, if he's not the president, good Lord, who was and why were they doing something that was against our workers,

our economy, our best interests, and helping Europe through a cold winter get natural gas they doing something that was against our workers, our economy, our best interests, and helping Europe through a cold winter get natural gas so that you don't have them buying it from Putin? I look at that and I'm like, China would like that. Certain people would like that. Globalists would like that. Nobody who's thinking about the best interests of the United States or our allies would want

that. That's what scares the hell out of me of that very specific situation. And you called it, that for all the people out there who are still kind of lost in La La Land, that is called the deep state. And let's be honest Pat, we knew it all along. If you didn't, you were lying to yourself from the beginning. From the moment he took office um I can't talk to you They told me I couldn't they now you know remember that thank you Tom And it's they like are you guys and that's the problem with the people that are just duped into this identity politics

Well, it's my side this blind loyalty to Democrat and Republican, okay? It's BS because it's you guys see it and now you know it and who knows what else they've done. Tom, what every single decision now after hearing that is tainted. I've never trusted him. You understand exactly what's going on with this guy and it's all those people, it's all the puppets.

He named who? Did you notice who he named? Who did he name, Pat? Chuck Schumer, who else? Hakeem Jeffries? Okay, the CIA director that's all of these people guys that have been making decisions and the president of the United States Who's gone and thank God he is it couldn't have come sooner was nothing He made zero decisions and it's all those people every single one of those people that he mentioned or the problem with what's happening

With this country and I'm so happy that it's over. It's all those people, every single one of those people that he mentioned are the problem with what's happening with this country, and I'm so happy that it's over. It's done. Adam. So the question is, what were Biden's greatest accomplishments? No, the question is, when you're seeing what's going on, Speaker Johnson and information kind of goes like this. We're being hit up by so much information. How do you differentiate between BS and something actually matters?

America was being ran by somebody that wasn't actually leading the country, his people were. Right. Well, I think it's pretty clear at this point that we were all lied to for four years about his cognitive decline, what was going on with his health. We saw that absolute gaffe machine happen when he debated Trump before Kamala replaced him But I think a few things here number one what we're going to see is more accountability more Transparency and more actual answers one of my favorite moments with you is what when you were sitting with Trump Pat And you said to Trump one of my favorite moments of yours if your administration

Was when you were in the room with Chuck, Chuck Schumer, and Nancy, and you said, it was vlog style, I believe you called it, and you're like, all right, no, no, no, no, you know, if you don't want to, if you don't want to shut down the government, I'll own it, Chuck, I'll own it, and he goes, okay, and boom, we saw what happened, that's complete transparency. We had the exact opposite of transparency with the Biden administration. Now, Trump's coming out there basically saying there's gonna be the golden age of America. I think a lot of that will have to do with

saving money versus spending money. When I think of the Biden administration, when I think of what they've done, and I think of their accomplishments, and I'm gonna list some of the accomplishments, if you're a Biden fan, or someone that voted for Kamala this time around, you might be like, well, what about the American rescue plan in 2021?

What about that? Well, you know, they printed $2 trillion, right? Inflation went up. All right. Well, what about the Infrastructure and Jobs Act? Another trillion dollars. What about the Chips and Science Act? More money.

What about the Inflation Reduction Act, which actually had nothing to do with inflation was actually climate change So it's like what what happened there all that had to do to me was spend more money spend more money spend more money Quantitative easing quantitative tightening everything we talked about that. So what happened with that? The byproduct was this I think you can agree with this The rich got richer. Elon's richer. Bezos is richer. Zuck's richer. We're richer. But the have-nots are all poor. If you have assets, if you own a home, if you own stocks, if you own crypto, you're richer than you were likely four years ago. But for the average man, for the average woman, the average person trying to start a family, the average Gen Z, the average millennial, they're like, yo, what about me, Biden?

And nothing worked out in their favor. So in that regard, I think a lot of people are going to say, you did nothing for me, Biden. Yeah, I mean, in other words, Biden's greatest accomplishment was he helped the rich get richer, the poor get poorer. I agree. That's his greatest accomplishment. I agree.

Yesterday we're driving. It's so interesting. We're in the car. We're driving with the driver here. And I got Tico and Dylan, which by the way, let me share with you what a special moment these boys had yesterday. Rob, I'm going to send you a couple pictures. I haven't even posted these so you guys are seeing this before anybody else does.

There was a couple moments. It was so funny. I'm walking around with these guys at the ball and I'm telling, I'm asking the guys, I'm like, hey, can you guys please talk to my boys and let them know, you know, my oldest son Patrick, he flirts with girls a little bit too much. And Patrick's like, he's the last guy. He's like, what can you tell me for him? Just give him some feedback.

How do I get my oldest son to stop talking to girls as much as he does? We're over here and Tico's looking at me like, why are you saying this to the enemy? Anyways, we're having a good time. But Rob, I sent a picture so if you can pull him up and we'll go through him. But we're driving home, okay? And so Dylan starts asking me questions about politics. And Tico's saying, well, what about this? And what about that? And what, well, those guys are Democrats, right? And those guys are Republicans, right? But Daddy, John F. Kennedy, who was a great president, he was a Democrat. So wasn't he a great president?

I said, yeah, he was. Rob, do you have the pictures or no? Yeah, it's going to take a second, but it is going. You want me to do an airdrop instead? No, I got them. Okay. So he was a great president, right? I said, yeah.

So what happened to John F. Kennedy if he was a great president? I said, here yeah, so what happened to John F. Kennedy if he was a great president? I said, here's the part that you don't understand, Kai. I said, the part you don't understand is the following. I broke it down on four different things. I said, first you have a Republican and Democrat. Okay, great. Then you have the left and the right.

Then you have the globalist and you have the nationalist. Tico says, oh, like white nationalists? I said, no, no, not white nationalists, nationalists. And I'll explain to you what that is. And then you have the establishment and anti-establishment. Okay? Great. So, Kennedys were hated by the establishment.

And some say, Lyndon Johnson, who was all Texas establishment Democrat, was behind John F. Kennedy dying because Johnson wanted to be a president. The way he did it is what? Boom. Eliminate Kennedy. He couldn't stand the Irish Catholic, all that stuff. Okay. Anti-war.

So these guys are anti-war, okay, Kennedy's. These guys lower taxes. These guys wanted this place to be safe, okay? And the establishment was like, hell no! War, all this stuff, military industrial. So I said Kennedy today would have been an anti-establishment nationalist Republican today. Kennedy's today, my opinion. Then nationalists are, I said, you remember when you met that man from Paraguay, the president of Paraguay, yeah, what about, good looking man, yeah, what about him?

He's a nationalist. His number one priority is what? Paraguay. He says, okay. I said Victor Orban, all these other guys, we're talking about, they're nationalists, right? They love their country. There's nothing wrong with your country being number one.

No. Great. And then as we're going through this process, he eventually says, well then Dad, is it fair to say that I'm a conservative, Republican, nationalist, anti-establishment guy? I said, that's probably you. He said, that's what I am. I think that's me, right? He was kind of breaking himself up.

This is Tico? This is Tico. I love that. And then the driver, African- He's kind of breaking himself up. This is Tico? This is Tico. I love that. And then the driver, African American guy with four kids, and he's listening to this and he says, I've never had anybody explain it that way before. That makes sense. I am that.

So why am I sharing this? The reason why I'm sharing this is because think about what just happened with this clip with Speaker Johnson we're watching. The globalists don't want America to be first. Right? The establishment doesn't want Trump to come in and get rid of all the BS that they have with all the executive orders. They've had so much control. They don't want that. DEI. What is DEI? Trump's like, it's all going to be about merit. It's not going to be about your race, skin or any of that stuff. And look at this lineup of people that were

speaking cash, but tell all these other guys. That era is here, and by the way, this is the pictures from last night, Rob, if you can pull up some of them. This is them meeting Connor. That was their favorite. They're like, oh my God, he is so energized. Why is he so fired up? Look at Dillon's face if you can zoom in a little bit.

Zoom in a little bit if you can. Dilly is cheesing. Go out. He's like there, and then look at Dilly Boy. Yeah, there he is. Go to the next picture Rob. Connor was class-sack with everybody. This is Pam Bondi. We approached, we spoke to her. First I met her husband.

And then a fellow says, hey, this is Pam Bondi's husband. I said, no. I said, now it makes sense. I said, we were bragging about how beautiful your wife is, but I said, now I get it. You're also good looking. You look like you're in Hollywood. they had a great conversation with him and then with her as well people want to go to the next picture this is them with Emily Austin I told Emily Emily Patrick's Florida with girls a little too much oh

yes so you said to him okay so look at his height already by the way go to the next one okay Dylan's got the Superman hair and then this was very interesting. The Paul brothers with the David brothers. That's so cool man. And by the way, John Jones, everybody was, there was such a great time last night. But that's the new era we're going through. Anyways, let's talk about pardons. So, while Trump is giving his inauguration speech, he has no idea what's going on. And he talks about it afterwards. What does he do? He had already known that Biden pardoned Fauci, Milley and the January 6th panel, which means

they can't get in trouble for fabricating any other thing because it's done. So all the lies, all the documents, the 10,000 documents that they're saying was shredded, that Trump claimed it was shredded, no one's going to be able to see because they're pardoned. Now, imagine that happens to the day of your about to give inauguration. You're ready to go after Fauci to find out what happened or Milley or go after all these guys, right? Can't. It's done.

Pardon's there. And you are still biting your tongue because you're about to see this guy that does this, and you're going to give your speech, you're going to become a president while all these guys sitting to your left, the Kamalas, the Bidens, the Obamas, the Clintons, all of these guys sitting to the left, were causing mayhem in your personal life for four years. They try to make your life a living hell. And then quietly, what does Biden do when Trump's on stage? In the final hours, he pardons relatives, family members, brothers. He didn't do that with the Fauci and others. He did it while Trump was getting up there.

Joe Biden issued preemptive pardons to safeguard individuals from potential reprisals by incoming President Trump recipients, including five Biden family members, brothers, James and Francis Biden, sister Valerie Biden Owens, wife sister, and her husband John Owens, not the John Owens, we know this is a different John Owens, and James' wife, Sarah, as well as figures like General Milley, Fauci, and members of the bipartisan family, Biden stated, these are exceptional circumstances, baseless and politically motivated investigations wreak havoc. Many recipients viewed the pardons as necessary due to threats from Trump, who promised retribution and labeled the January

6th Committee political thugs like Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger and other committee members issued a statement saying we have been pardoned today not for breaking the law but for upholding it. Police officer Michael Fanon involved in the Capitol riot defense called the pardons insane but understood their necessity given Trump's promise of vengeance. When you hear these things, Adam, how do you process it that the pardons happen while the president's up there, specifically to family? Well look, I mean we all like sports here, we like playing a game. The last two minutes of the game is usually

the most important game. The last two minutes in an NFL game might take a half hour. The last two minutes of an NBA game might take 20 minutes. And in the last two minutes of the Biden administration, before the minutes and in the last two minutes of the Biden administration Before the shot clock three two one at the buzzer Pardon everybody and he didn't even give time for Trump to even process it to say this in his inaugural speech so then Trump At all the how many by the way, do you think Trump even took a break yesterday? He was going from event to event to event to event to event.

He got onto the Liberty Ball stage and he goes, look, they told me not to say it at the inauguration speech. I didn't do it. But now he's like, f it. This Biden administration is the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen. The worst administration I've ever seen, the worst administration I've ever seen. The fact that he's put, he just went ham on Biden. So of course, if you're doing shady things at the end of the shot clock, the buzzer, you're

going to basically ask for pardons. And then I made a great tweet yesterday. I said, oh yeah, he pardoned his entire family, but he forgot to pardon himself. Right Tom? He did. My reaction to all that was I was not surprised. And here's why I wasn't surprised. They worked, man, they worked tooth and nail to prevent the investigation. There was an investigation that was going on.

I mean, never mind Hunter's laptop. They had gotten to the financial records. and there were how many of those? Vinny you remember that you Adam you remember it too remember how many? Accounts and sub accounts there were where money was going to Biden family members and they had tracked it they had tracked it They had the digital fingerprint of why were why were these? Amounts of money getting split up and they were going to all of these Biden family accounts? The answer is Hunter was on the energy, board of that energy company.

Burisma, I believe is what you're talking about. Burisma and got some sort of payments. And for some reason, those payments were getting split up and waterfall over the whole family. And so at the buzzer, what did he had to do? And for some reason those payments were getting split up and waterfall over the whole family. And so at the buzzer, what did he had to do? He had to cover the whole tribe. Now there's something interesting.

I read a day ago, when this was, you know, the Biden pardons, we were all of us here, we had kind of a text right among us. We were saying like, what is a pardon? Well, I went in and looked, and Gerald Ford's reasoning for pardoning Richard Nixon is he felt that his resignation and the public comments made of the resignation was an admission of guilt. A pardon used to be something that comes to you after the world is convinced and you've gone through this thing called due process and you're guilty and you're actually serving some time or you're indicted and you're on the edge of the cliff, the court case is almost done, but they agonize on whether they should...

Remember, Gerald Ford was a long-standing member of the House of Representatives. He was actually on the Warren Commission for the Kennedy assassination, which is a whole other story. But Gerald Ford said, I don't know if we should pardon Richard Nixon. And he was talked into it because they said, well, his resignation and the comments he made and the additional comments he's made publicly, it's an admission of guilt. And since it's an admission of guilt, I can pardon Richard Nixon. That's what a pardon does.

That's what it's done historically. What Biden did was gave all of his family members Teflon vests. Nothing's going to stick. Hey, you can investigate. You can do that. Not one of these people had been indicted. Not one of these people had been pulled in front of a special committee. Not one of these people had been pulled in front of a grand jury.

He just goes, alright, this is what we're going to do here. Everybody gets a pardon. A pardon for what? He just wrapped all of his family in a Teflon suit. It's an admission of guilt, Tom, is exactly what it is. But you know what, guys? I blame Donald Trump. I blame Donald Trump I blame Donald Trump he showed his hand way too early said

everything that he was gonna do and this is what they did Tom this is this is Trump jumping ahead and saying I'm gonna do this I'm gonna do this I'm gonna do that he should have stayed quiet everybody says that were these blind loyalists no no that's a problem that I had Tom he said everything that he was going to do so all those people around him the Chuck Schumer's and Nancy Pelosi's the Obama's hunter everybody said dad or mr. Biden please help us help us he's gonna do this okay and especially after hearing what speaker Johnson said in that interview with Barry Weiss they were all he's not

making any decisions which I think it's all BS but let's think about it Schiff doesn't have a pardon Alej think about it shift doesn't have a pardon Alejandro Mayorkas doesn't have a pardon I think now he should be going after those people that made the decisions because one of the worst ones and pat you guys saw This I tweeted it yesterday was dr. Mr. Fauci, whatever you want to call him I think that's one of the the most spit in the face I made the comparison to him to that guy, Tom, you actually told me his name, who was that Hitler's Nazi scientist, Joseph Mengele. He experimented on children

with all that stuff. Fauci experimented with HIV positive orphans with experimental drugs causing side effects. He did all these experiments on kids, vaccinating all these freaking children. Everything that he did, everything that Fauci did to give him and mind you he was under Trump he was under what seven I believed Rob administration the presidency's that is one of those in my opinion those deep state actors that main goal was to destroy this country if you've read the real dr. Fauci which you told me to read I still can't believe that book is true still to this day I think that's one of the biggest spits in the face. And that's why when I hear people say,

oh you think it's cool that he pardoned January 6th people that yelled and hit a cop, I don't give a shit. Sorry for my language. I want all of them out of jail. If Dr. Fauci, to me, who has crimes against humanity, okay, is gonna walk free for the rest of his life and get Secret Service protection that I'm paying for, to hell with that. I wanted everybody from January 6th out.

That's the biggest problem that I have is that guy. Yeah, I mean, look, Tom, here's a question for you. This is your opinion again, when you're comparing these guys without you. Yeah, all my opinion. All my opinion. Tom, let me ask you. Aside from Nixon, Ford, who else in the history of presidents has been pardoned for not committing a crime?

Matter of fact, Rob, if you can go online and type in, because this is what I did and I texted all of you guys, what's the definition of a pardon? And just go to the top and let's read it together to the audience. Gang, if you don't mind, do it on your own phone if you can't see it. Definition of a pardon, okay, if you go up there, I think I put something else. The action of forgiving or being forgiven for any errors or offense. He obtained pardon for his sins. Okay, so if you type in, who do presidents pardon?

Just type in, who do presidents pardon? Perfect, that's the explanation. Zoom in a little bit. Pardons extend to all federal criminal offenses, except in cases of impeachment and entail various forms of clemency, including commuting or postponing a sentence, remitting a final restitution, delaying the imposition of punishment, and proving amnesty of an entire group or class of individuals. So what's the key word?

Federal criminal offenses. So what, is Fauci a criminal? Is Mallorca a criminal? Are Biden's siblings all criminals? What president in the history has ever pardoned their siblings, Rob? Can you Google what president in the history of presidents has pardoned their siblings? Which president pardoned their family? Which president? If you type in, I'm actually curious and I don't know the answer to this question, so maybe a lot of them.

But if you want to find out which president, Vinny, you want to go ask on ChadGBT and ask which presidents pardoned their relatives. So Bill Clinton pardoned his brother for, Roger Clinton, president and brother, was pardoned for drug charges after having served the entire sentence more than a decade earlier. So this is for a crime he committed. So this is not for a crime he didn't commit. Convicted. Convicted.

Roger Clinton was convicted. Just Bill Clinton, pardon his half-brother, and then Jimmy Carter did his actual brother for tax evasion. But he actually committed the crime. Thank you. So you tell me, when Rudy Giuliani, who the guy's reputation, you know, what they've done to this guy, when I went to his place and we were doing Mafia States of America, okay, I'm in this room, I'm in New York, and he's telling me, I had the laptop, FBI came, they did not want to

see what's in the laptop. This is the Biden crime family, his words in Mafia States of America. I'm like, oof, the Biden crime family? The Biden crime family. Then you come in and pardon your entire family? And Bill Clinton pardoned his brother Roger Clinton who did his entire time? Jimmy Carden pardoned his brother for tax evasion? What crime did Biden's family commit? Exactly. Oh, I got it. So you know what this is? You guys ever seen the movie Minority Report?

Of course. What's the movie Minority Report about? Stopping the crime before it happens, called pre-crime, because you've got psychics that know that you're going to do the said crime. So being able to use predictive technology to say, you're about to commit a crime in the next six months, let's arrest you now, right? You know what Biden uses? A level above Minority Report.

Biden uses a technology called, these are people that have committed crimes, that they're about to get arrested in the future, but I'm pardoning them before they get arrested. It's a minority report on steroids. So this is again, so when anybody else, by the way, Democrats who are sitting there saying, how the hell do I create content the next four years? Meaning, what do I say? When they say, well, look at President Trump, Biden, you can't say shit!

The guy pardoned his kids. The guy pardoned Fauci. The guy pardoned anybody that got a pardon that didn't have any kind of criminal offenses indirectly is a criminal according to Biden's method of doing this. By the way, Trump said something very interesting in his speech. Very interesting in his speech. And by the way, this guy is a maniac. Trump is a maniac.

Let me tell you guys, they're telling stories just yesterday. He's been up since 4 o'clock in the morning. He's signing things. He's going to the church in the morning, the services, and then he goes to the inauguration. His wife is walking around with the shoes, giving speeches after speeches after speeches. The ball, the starlight ball, you know when they got off the stage when they're dancing? 12 31 o'clock is the final dance with JD Vance. He's still up there giving a speech.

This guy worked a 20 hour shift at 78 years old, doing executive orders and he's talking to the media when they're talking shit to him, and he's going back and forth. You know what he said? He says, �Do you guys know, my first term, I had the opportunity to pardon myself. And a lot of people were advising me saying, �You should pardon yourself. You should pardon yourself.� I said, �Why would I pardon myself? If I pardon myself, that means I'm guilty. I'm not guilty of anything.

That's why I never pardoned myself. Why would anybody pardon themselves in advance? Because they are guilty. I wasn not guilty of anything. That's why I never pardon myself. Why would anybody pardon themselves in advance? Because they are guilty. I wasn't guilty. He says, I think we won the 2020 election. I think we did this. I think we did that. Look what happened.

What a, the amount of moral authority they just gave, they handed to him, they can't say nothing to him for the next four years. Good. They literally can't say nothing to him for the next four years. They literally can't say nothing to him for the next four years You know who just validated exactly what you said was that was chat GBT exact portion of what you just read about Bill Clinton's brother. They said there's Bill Clinton who parted his brother Roger Clinton who committed a crime Like you said a cocaine distribution 1980s the other other person on this list with Donald Trump. They said potential Family pardon sort of the end of Donald Trump presidency, there was speculation that he might pardon all his family,

including Don Jr., Ivanka, Eric, his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, but ultimately he did not pardon any family members. Speaking in existence to exactly what you said, why would I need to do that? But there's another thing. This is, and this kind of goes to what Vinny's saying. You know when Babe Ruth like called a shot, he's like, I'm gonna hit a home run. That's exactly what Trump did. I was like, I'm gonna come after them. I'm gonna go after these guys.

But it's the perfect cover for the Biden crime family, as you're calling it, to basically say, oh, here's what we do. You ready? Ready? He's saying he's gonna come after us. Whether we did say, oh, here's what we do. You ready? Ready? He's saying he's going to come after us. Whether we did it or not, we know what happened. Political vengeance, political retribution.

You know, James Brown had a song called The Big Payback. They're coming for us. So what we're going to do is preemptively, you talked about preemptive analytics and everything with Minority Port, preemptively're gonna say well since Donald Trump is talking about Retribution and Vengeance. Let me go ahead and pardon My family members, you know, so we don't get in trouble from Donald Trump So it actually is the perfect cover for them, but but me personally. I'm not a fan of the preemptive Pardon Tom. I think the only time other times was Gerald Ford pardoned Richard Nixon for Watergate

scandal and then George HW Bush pardoned related to the Iran Contra affair that I am anti-pre I think you have to be set in front of court you have to have your day in trial if you are either charged and then or convicted and you have to you're making I think so bad because I For anybody for Trump or anybody. I'm not a fan of it, but you know and I missed one point to PBD It was a general Milley. That's that's one of the main ones That's a real problem because for the audience that knows in 2020 I believe Rob October 2020 He called General Lee from China and said that we have no plans to attack.

This is undermining our entire system. He called and told them, if we're going to attack, I'm going to call you ahead of time. You're letting our, technically our enemy know our freaking plans. That's why he had to let this guy. Well, look, the reality of it is, I love the fact that all of this stuff happened open hand. Good. So anybody that's on the left that wants to say anything, you lost the argument because

of what Biden did. Very simple. You lost the argument because of what he did. This has never happened ever before. You just witnessed what your guy that you were all impressed about do what he did here. By the way, for those of you guys that are watching the podcast, we saw so many people, I don't know how many people the last four days stopped us. If I have to say a number, would you say a thousand?

Would you say, I don't know what the number is, the last four or five days. It was insane. It was insane. The conversations, people from all over the world that are here for this special event, and you know what was amazing? Everybody's saying America's back, common sense is back, the pride of when future looks bright. I can't tell you how many people are using the phrase, future looks bright today.

So many people that's becoming, you're going to see this thing get bigger and bigger and bigger because of the optimism. So here's what we're doing, specifically January 21st, it's only going to happen one time. We have the new future looks bright with the American flag on it. Okay, Rob, I don't know if you have that or not. The Future Looks Bright mug right there. This is American flag with the Vagatama logo and their Future Looks Bright and it's 20 bucks.

And the other stickers that we have 45, 47, here's what we're doing. Just today, first 50 people that place an order over $50, we're going to put in that mug and we're going to put in the stickers for you. Those stickers are limited edition stickers because it's only going to happen one time it's going right now. Place an order, get the hat. So much gear right now, this sweater I'm wearing right now, I dare you to buy this sweater not like it.

If you don't like it, I'll send you twice the amount of merch. If you buy this sweater and you don't like it, it's the most comfortable thing you'll ever wear in your life and the Future Looks Bright logo on the back with the silver. I don't know where this is, but go get some of the gear. Future Looks Bright. I'm so up. The next four years, we're at Equinox, one after another after oh my God, Future Looks Bright, Future Looks Bright, Future Looks Bright, Future Looks Bright.

Everybody is using this phrase, but watch what's going to happen in the next four years with that phrase. You're going to see, millions of people will be wearing this gear and everybody's going to say, me too. I feel the same exact way. Optimism's going high. If you feel that way, go to vtmarsh.com, place your order. The first 50 people that place an order over $50 will get the stickers and the U.S. flag, future looks bright, muck. OK, let's go to the next story here. So, while all this stuff is going on, on Martin Luther King Day, this is what the president

says. He says, Trump vows to release JFK, RFK, and MLK assassination files in massive transparency push. Rob, is this the clip? Go ahead and play this clip, please. And in the coming days, we are going to make public remaining records relating to the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, his brother Robert Kennedy, as well as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and other topics of great public interest.

It's all going to be released, Uncle Sam. By the way, you know what it takes to do that? It's a technical term that they use. And I want to get this right, correct me guys, because my English is not there. If I'm not saying the press are like, I think it's like a doctor medical term. It's called brass balls. It's what it takes to do that because you know who is not going to be happy by releasing that?

One organization. And what is that one organization? See? CIS. There you go. See ya. He says that, but now he's not saying this as an election, hey, vote for me because I'm What is that one organization? CIS. There you go. See ya. See ya. Tom, he says that, but now he's not saying this as an election, hey, vote for me because

I'm going to release it. He's won. So, him saying it, he's not saying to try to make you happy because he wants your vote or anything. He's already won. That only happens pre-November 5th. Tom, what happens if he releases 100% of this? What is this going to do to the marketplace that's confused the hell out of wood?

Who shot MLK? Who shot Bobby? Who shot John F. Kennedy? How explosive will this be? It's going to be very explosive. But the question is, what is still in the archive? What is still there that can be released? Because the CIA has had a lot of time to scrub it and a lot of time to do it.

And I'll give you one example. There is an incontrovertible fact that everyone agrees on that a piece of Kennedy's skull that was forensically examined for bullet pathing, in other words, which direction did a bullet come from? It's like when a plane crashes. They take all the pieces and they put it back together. It's gruesome, it's terrible, but that's kind of what you have to do in an autopsy, especially in an assassination investigation, looking at the body.

What is the body telling you about what happened? Just like a plane crash where the planes and the million pieces, they put it back together, they get the black box. That piece of that skull went missing within three years. Within three years. People went back to, after the Warren Commission, they said, we wanna look at a couple more things here. Investigative committee said, yes, we can do that.

They went in there, it's gone. So the question is, what will still be in the archive that will be releasable? What documents are still in the archive? Redacted documents that have been copies of copies of copies of copies. Is the original unredacted versions in there? Or are you going to be looking at redacted copies? There's commentary that there are witness interviews in there

that there's no originals. That there, and people that have done investigation have said that there's redacted copies, we don't have the originals. So the question is what's going to be in there? However, it will be explosive as the American people come to realize, in my opinion and the opinion of many, many, many, many, many, many, many people, that the Kennedy assassination was an absolute incised job. Oswald didn't act alone and it was Johnson and the CIA. That is my opinion.

That's what I read. There's so many people. That would be explosive. Equally explosive is the letters that were written to Martin Luther King by the CIA and there have been two of those, I believe, that have been out. One in which they were encouraging him to commit suicide. They said there's so much stuff that we're going to release on you and Ralph Abernathy. And you should do it, King. There's only one way out, King. Take yourself, King.

That was written by our CIA. It says, unfortunately, through our FBI, they were, and I think these things will be explosive, but I think we get over it and move forward and say, okay, we did it to ourself. This is horrifying. Now, how do we keep it to ourselves. This is horrifying. Now, how do we keep it from happening again? That's what I think, but I wanna know what is still in the archive? Because these people are very good at redirecting

and protecting themselves. Vinny. I mean, I hope, Tom, because we've heard this the last time he was in, I'm gonna do this, I'm gonna do this, but then he changed his mind. The real thing is, what happens to these institutions? What happens to the CIA? What happens to the FBI? When we find out definitively, because we all have our opinions.

Me and Rob talk about this all the time. I know me and you are pretty much on the same page. I know Pat floats around there, Adam, I don't know, I don't think you're as far in as we are, but I mean trust for the government is the lowest it's ever been in the history of the country. So if that's a fact and we find out in fact the CIA, maybe the FBI, the mob, whoever, they all had a hand in murdering a sitting president, murdering our president, then you have to question everything. Then all of a sudden you're like wait a minute 9-11 who's to say you lose all faith in every single thing

that your organization has touched that means either you have to get rid of this organization or there has to be a some type of civilian over I don't know what has to happen Tom because it's over if the CIA was involved and we have documentation it's over it's done it's treason okay at the highest level and over if the cia was involved in we have documentation over it's done it's treason okay at the highest level and nobody to get held accountable but they're all dead

everybody's dead but then everything else that was involved that adds questions i want to get the money i love it i love uh... by the way do you know what happens if they release this information out of my mom i want to know if you're commenting on giving my thoughts i want to tell you what i think is going to happen if Trump actually releases this information. I'm going to give you a data that you're going to be shocked what I think will happen.

My prediction. Okay? Go ahead, Adam. Well, look, in descending order, everyone wants to know what happened to JFK. Was the Warren Commission that I think happened? Lee Harvey Oswald? That's the thing. Youwald, that's a thing. You know, there's a guy out there, you might have heard of him, PBD, he wrote this book,

I believe it was called, Choose Your Enemies Wisely, right? I argue with him all the time. He's a good guy. I argue with him all the time, especially his two buddies over there too. But great guy, is this really the enemy you want to choose on day one? You want to go after the CIA? Is that really what you want to choose on day one? You want to go after the CIA? Is that really what you want to do? I'm not saying that's a good thing. I'm not saying that's a bad thing I'm saying that's the thing you want to do. So

There's gonna be a lot of people the public who be like hell. Yeah, I want to know what the hell happened at JFK I want to understand what happened to Bobby Kennedy, certainly his son, RFK we've spent a ton of time with. I'd like to know what happened to MLK, I mean in descending order that way. Lee Harvey Oswald was at the one shooter, Grassy Knoll, what's going on, Warren Commission, who made that call, what was going on, CIA, Cuba, cash, what was happening in there? Everyone wants to know. The second thing, Sirhan Sirhan, I believe was the guy that allegedly killed Bobby Kennedy.

Correct me if I'm wrong. He went to jail. I think he just got released 60 years later, whatever the number is. I think Bobby Kennedy went and spoke with them and after speaking with them said yeah, I don't think this is the guy Yeah, am I wrong? No, you're right. Okay, and then the coup de grace MLK I think this all happened. What it was Kennedy was 63 MLK Bobby was 68 summer of 68 the guy that killed the MLK was a guy called James Earl Ray

The guy that killed the MLK was a guy called James Earl Ray. They ran, they caught him, they caught him in Africa, Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe. And you know what's interesting? After years in jail, he basically came out and said, guys, it wasn't me. The shaggy defense, we'll see what happens here. So he's denying that. If Trump does this, he's going to have a lot of credibility and a lot of enemies. So we'll see what happens here. By the way, the new CIA director, I believe, is John Radcliffe. Amazing guy.

So he's coming in. Yeah. I think he was part of the national intelligence security and the guy on his way out was Bill Burns. So here's what I think's gonna happen. Okay, number one, when you're saying, is this the right enemy to choose? Yes.

Yes, because let me tell you where Trump is at right now. You know where Trump's at he's at the point of no return Yes, what does that mean? They've already tried to kill him multiple times So so he's already crossed that path And I don't know if you know what I'm saying when I when I'm saying he's crossed that path of course He's in his mind again. This is my opinion my opinion when you flirt with death, and everybody handles the close call with death in a different way. And again, this is broken down, I think, in the book David and Goliath.

Some people get so scared where they play defense their entire lives. Some people are shocked mode. They're like, oh my God, what just happened? But they move on with entire lives. Some people are shocked mode. They're like, oh my God, what just happened? But they move on with their lives. But a few people believe the reason why you made it is because God's got a bigger plan for you. Like it's a calling. I'm called to do something great. Trump is in that mode. So what does that mean? He's willing to go after everybody because he thinks God's got his back. Did you hear in his inauguration when he said, here's how it works. God, let me say it again, God above all. And he said it the second time.

And he says, a guy told him, he says, well, you know, Mr. President, you know, the most beautiful words in a dictionary are God, religion and love. He says, yeah, God, yes, number one. And religion is probably number two. And you know what? We have to love each other. I get number three. But the fourth best word in the dictionary is terror, right? He's saying what he's saying about terror, right? But I'll tell you this, him going here, you know what it's going to do to trust in the U.S. government? Skyrocket.

Dropping what the U.S. government did in the past before to hide it from us is going to take this chart, and if you look at this chart closely, folks, it's going to skyrocket the trust in the U.S. government. Exposing the CIA is actually going to increase the trust in the U.S. government. How weird is that? I'm exposing the government and you trust the government more now? Yes! Because when we say government, what do you think about, I'm having this conversation

with my kids, when they say government, what do you think about? Actually when the government is fraud, what do you think about when I'm having this conversation with my kids when they say government What do you think about? Actually when the government is fraud, what do you think about? What is your mind go to when they say the government the government lies the government lies the government lies Washington White House Okay, but they're thinking about it, but that's not true though. So we'll go What what Tom? What do you think about when people say I don't trust the government? What who is the government when people say I don't trust the government? Who is the government? When people say I don't trust the government, is it what government? I think it's trickle right

now. Yeah, I think when people say I don't trust the government, it's like I don't trust what I'm being told. Well, what are you being told? Who is telling you? That's the one right there. It's our intelligence community, it's our defense community. When you have Norman Schwarzkopf stands up there and says, here's the pictures of all the blown up stuff. I could have gone all the way to Baghdad, but we didn't. America looks at that, satellite photos, Reuters out there and says, I guess our government's telling the truth.

We could have killed Saddam Hussein. The other way is where you get the spin. You get the half truth. You don't get the answer. And then people don't trust that. So when people say, I don't trust the government, we have to isolate You know what it is. You don't get the answer and then people don't trust that so when people say I don't trust the government we have to Isolate and qualify what that means. Yeah, when you say I don't trust the government The government replaced it with I don't trust the government when it was being ran under XYZ leadership

That's what that means. Yes, so a person saying I don't trust the government in That's what that means. Yes. So a person saying, I don't trust the government in 1964. Okay, I get it. Or 1962, 63. I get it. I don't trust the government under this. The government replaces with the leadership team of the president that was running it.

If the president actually follows through and drops, what happened with MLK, Robert Kennedy, and John F. Kennedy assassination with the CIA, you're going to see that chart? Skyrocket when they run the poll of how much the American people trust the government, they're going to say, I trust the government, but replace the government, I trust Trump's administration, not the U.S. government as a blanket immunity statement, I trust the government period, under this administration. I think Trump has a shot on getting this thing to be a hockey stick to the roof saying, holy shit, whether you like him or not, guess what?

He's telling us what's going on, which is quite exciting. I'm going to go to the next story here. I've got to give you one little piece of information. I know you want to move on, but this is very important. Be quick. Go for it. Do you know when the term conspiracy theorist? It became right after the Warren Commission, right?

That's everyone's labeled that these days and now it traces back to that by the way What did Chuck Schumer say to to Donald Trump? Yes, seven would you go after the intelligence community if they got six ways to Sunday to get after you, right? So we're gonna see what happens. So we're going to see what happens if he has radical transplants. So watch this here. Trump to suspend security clearances of 51 former CIA contractors who false implied Hunter Biden's laptop was Russian fake. This is another one, I'm not going to spend a lot of time on this, I'm just reading this story because I think it's important for the audience to hear this.

And then we'll go to the next story here. President Donald Trump plans the president now, but President Donald Trump revoked the security clearance of the 51 intelligence officials who claim Hunter Biden's laptop had the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation. Before the 2020 election, a senior administration told that Fox News that this action was part of 200 executive orders. Spies who lie. God, this is another reason why the people didn't trust the U.S. government.

Let me get to the next story here, and that's Vivek and Doge. So there are different stories. First rumors started circulating that Vivek will be stepping down from Doge, Department of Governmental Efficiency, if I'm not mistaken. And they're like, yeah, no, I don't think that's happening. Well then it's like, well, he's stepping down because he's running for governor. Oh, okay. So he's stepping down because he's a governor.

He's running for governor. Then when you hear Vivek talk about it, and Vivek talk about it on Fox, the story says where Vivek even quotes it, I think there's a tweet where he says, it was my honor to help support the creation of Doge. I'm confident that Elan and team will succeed in streamlining government. I'll have more to say very soon about my future plans in Ohio. Most importantly, we're all in to help President Trump make America great again.� So that is a quote from him, I think a day ago or a couple days ago, right?

And then while I'm on Will Cain's show, he asked me a question about, you know, Trump wants Vivek to consider running for Senate. I think somebody wanted him to consider running for Senate. I said, I don't think he's a Senate guy. I think he's more an executive guy. He needs to be governor over being Senate. And now conversations are coming up about him running for governor. Tom, your thoughts?

Do you think this is because of him running for governor that this is stepping down? Do you think this is because of him running for governor that this is stepping down? Do you think there's conflicts between him and Musk? Do you think it just didn't work out because Trump also two days ago said that Vivek is still going to be a Doge, but there's a few different stories here coming out from different people. Tom. So I see two angles here. First of all, could Vivek been involved with Doge and at the same time be looking at a vulnerable seat to run as a GOP candidate?

Yes, he could. Absolutely could. How much does, is Doge an appointed position, like an ambassador? Ambassadors sometimes keep their businesses running, keep things going on the side, and they're also an ambassador. So could he have been working on Doge and be governor? I think he probably could have. That's one side of it.

That's the rational explanation. The other side I look at it is, you know, he's really an alpha. And Elon Musk is an alpha. And Ramaswani, you see the way he opened up the debate, how direct he was? He's a guy that doesn't mince words and is unafraid to turn it up to 11 and come after you. And the rumors we hear, well, may have worn out his welcome. Well, maybe they kind of banged heads a little bit.

Maybe he, so I hear all that and I go, you know what? That kind of makes sense to me and the fact that That the governor seats open and let's face it They need somebody Pat in these seats and right now Trump and others are pitting picking draft picks To run for key seats and so they go, you know, you're in Ohio. You're right there So why don't you go and do it? So I think there's a little bit of truth on both that probably, you know, another alpha guy, maybe two alphas together didn't quite get it and

hey, we also need a draft pick. So why don't we make this easy transition? And I don't know, I had not read it, but you mentioned something as we were about to go on that you had seen something where Vivek said something. something as we were about to go on that you had seen something where Vivek said something Yeah, no the conversations when you hear what's going on on Twitter and some people behind closed doors is you know the fact that After his comments on h1b visa You know that got I think it was a hundred and fifty. It's his most viewed tweet of all time Yeah, hundred fifty million views. Yep of people that saw tweet. The wrong way to say it, what he did. What he said, it really pissed a lot of people off and that was kind of the moment of what

do we do with them, do we kind of step away? That's what some people are saying. Now he's going to clarify and probably say it had nothing to do with that, but it is what it is. I was just going to say that and just to remind people, what he said was that American culture has started valuing mediocrity instead of excellence. Now I don't know about you guys, Americans don't like hearing that crap.

So I think that that to me played a big part. I do like the alpha versus alpha as well, Tom, because if you think about it, Elon is good. He could probably do this by himself with a team. He'll probably put somebody else in there to run it. I mean the idea is pretty obvious, you know what I mean? Department of Government efficiency, just we're going to be cutting a lot of corners. But you know, it is kind of weird though, Pat.

Did you guys even really see Vivek this entire week that we've been here? I saw him once, Rob. Maybe I saw him walking at the inauguration. But it is kind of obvious that once you're out of that little limelight, I didn't hear him make a speech. We were at the Capital One. I saw everybody. We saw Cash Patel.

We saw, um, everybody spoke except, um, good song. Everybody spoke except Vivek. So I kind of feel like, and going to your point, Tom, there's a, if there's a governorship or a Senate seat, that's to me, that's more important than just an agency that they're starting from scratch. Look, I mean we saw Vivek We also saw the fake Vivek who was hanging out with us that one day our buddy But look you said maybe six months ago Maybe a year ago that the number one draft pick in the GOP in your opinion was Vivek and I agree I just don't think that's the case anymore. I think now that Trump is officially the president, JD Vance is the guy.

He's going to be next in line. I don't want to count my chickens before they hatch, but come 2028, you know, if you're Vivek, you could pretty much do kind of whatever you want to do at this point. By the way, how many people genuinely knew Vivek Ramaswamy's name one year ago? Not that many. Not many. And then boom as anybody catapulted to the forefront of American culture, American politics, American business

more than Vivek Ramaswamy in the last year. I would say no. We all know Trump. We all knew of JD Vance a little bit. He was a senator. We've all known some of these people. We knew Elon certainly but Vivek. So now you're little bit. He was a senator. We've all known some of these people. We knew Elon, certainly. But Vivek, so now you're talking about,

should he become a senator? Nah, beneath me. All right, well that's pretty interesting. Spending his money on a real campaign. Yeah, but his money where his mouth is, no doubt. I do think it's beneath him, not beneath him. Yeah, I think he's bigger than that. I think he's bigger than that.

I agree. Should I become a governor? Governor of one state. By the way, Doge, what do you think they're paying him to run Doge if they were him and the two-headed monster, Elon Musk? Who knows? Nothing, I mean, not much.

It's not even a government actual position, so they sort of made it up. So by the way, if you asked me straight up, two weeks ago, a month ago, who would actually be running Doge between Elon, the richest man in the world, who's running a dozen other companies, or Vivek, one of the smartest guys we've ever known, certainly a billionaire, but not a half a trillionaire, I'd say probably Vivek, because he could probably dedicate more time. By the way, I think he has two kids, where Elon has, I think a big- He's probably having one right now. I know. So I would say Vivek, but I don't know,

something's going on there, but don't forget, and Pat, you would know this maybe more than anybody, it's not like Vivek has long lasting relationships with anybody. Nobody knew Vivek a year ago, straight up. Everyone knew Elon. So I don't know if they're jockeying for position, jockeying for power, if they can't coexist. I don't know if Trump has any loyalty to Vivek. I don't know. Doesn't really know him. They

certainly chose JD Vance over him. They're both from Ohio. I think they went to law school right around the same time. But what I know about Vivek, he is so smart, he is so talented, whatever he ends up doing, he's really just fine. Yeah, so I think, you know, while I was at the Starlight, I spoke to a lot of different people who were approaching me, and some of the guys that are heavyweight names that you all know who they are. Some are in the policy space, some are on TV, you see them, and what do you want? Let me tell you, Vivek, this and let me tell you, Vivek, that and let me tell you, Vive you bake this and let me tell you if you bake that and let me tell you if you bake this." I'm like, listen, relax, okay? Whether you want to call this a fumble or stumble or whatever, what are these words that people say, Tom, like when you're on your way, you're stumbling on something.

Tom Liddy You're fumbling, stumbling, whatever. You're saying, the standards for me on winning at the highest level is not perfection, okay? You're going to get through moments where you're going to stumble and, you know, I talk to the kids about this, you're going to have your moments. By the way, the freaking guy from Baltimore Ravens, they come back, they score the touchdown, throws the ball perfectly to the tight end and a corner like it couldn't be easier. Andrews. Andrews to catch the ball.

We can't play this clip because of ESPN. Doesn't drops the ball to go to. I mean do you realize like how he feels the quarterback and he knows too many and he took full responsibility. They're going to have a tough off season. Oh yeah. how he feels the quarterback and he knows too many, and he took full responsibility. They're going to have a tough off season. Everywhere they go, hey, hey, how you doing man? Stop asking me how I'm doing.

Hey man, I'm so sorry. Shut up! I don't want to hear it. So it's part of life when you're on the, what do you call it, the big screen. Well, you know, dude, relax, relax. Okay. Well, you know, dude, relax, relax, okay? There's two ways. Sometimes both ideas can be both right and wrong, and sometimes intelligence is being

able to entertain opposing ideas and kind of get it. There's a part that's like, it's getting late, let's go. You're going to turn 60 years old in 16 years. Okay? And that's true. But you know what the other side is? We've got a long life to live. Yep. Life is long and life is short. They're both right. Vivek is a star, led into a superstar

that pissed a lot of people off. And while you're coming up, you also have to sometimes realize the people that are in your ear telling you, you're amazing, you're amazing, you're amazing, you're amazing, you're amazing. You have to mute those people. It's not easy to do. Valedictorian, da-da-da-da-da, pa-pa-pa-pa-pa. But I think he's going to recreate himself as these types of personalities always do, and he's going to come back and you're going to see him.

Right now, if I'm a mind reader and I'm not, and if I sat there, in his mind he's counting 12 years. You know what 12 years is? Do you know what 12 years is? It's the next time Vivek's going to have a shot at being a president. Yeah, because the next in line would probably be JD Vance. That's what I mean. So he's calculating 52 years old. Yep. And that is very annoying to somebody that's extremely ambitious. Well, of course. Very annoying. So that's extremely ambitious. Very annoying. So that's what he's going through right now.

And again, my opinion, I haven't spoken to him in a while, but that's my opinion on this. Now, Zuckerberg had a phenomenal moment. You know, he had a very special moment. You know, it's great to say that your vision works. Some people are worried because they go to the doctor and they can't see anymore. We're talking about our vision. They read like this. Yeah.

What the world realizes is that Zuck has great eyes. Okay? And it still works. He doesn't need glasses. Even though Facebook just came out with new glasses, without the Facebook glasses he was able to spot something that, you it just whether it's because of different reasons you said something which I don't want to take it away from you I don't know you'll say it here in a minute it could be a commercial for

that but here's what everybody's talking about in the inauguration in the rotunda go ahead Vinny, Rob, play this wonderful clip of knowing that Zuck's eyes work. You play it again. Look at this. Look at Zuck. Gotcha! Got you! Now, can you play the clip of when she turned around, the pro, Kennedy and others, how they were looking up, it reminded me of a scene from a movie, which I'll tell you guys.

I don't know if you have the, which I'll tell you guys. I don't know if you have the clip. I texted you, Rob. It's a clip about Kennedy and them are sitting there watching. Before it happens, I'm going to give you a thumbs up to go to that one. And so she's turning around. And this tweet is so funny. It says, RFK did a lot better job than Zuck when looking at Jeff Bezos' girlfriend, Lauren

Sanchez, who wore a bra openly to the inauguration. If you have this, this is called wisdom. This is called life experience. Zuckerberg needs to call Kennedy and have a conversation with him, Rob. If you can play this clip for the audience. And folks, watch this. This is called experience and being a professional. Go ahead.

Okay, Lauren Sanchez. She turns around, watch this. What? Okay. JFK, do you want to look down at that? Look, look, look. Just turn off the audio and play. Look. He's not looking. He's not looking. Look, look, look. Don't look. I don't want to get hold of my focus. Look at the guy to the right of Kennedy. He's just like, honey, I didn't look. Babe, I wasn't looking.

Am I free? Boom. Okay, all right, we're safe. But Zuck fell for it and got billions on top of billions of views. And anyways, even my wife saw this. My wife's like, come on, guys. You got to leave him alone. He didn't do anything wrong.

A guy would have been looking at this. But anyways, girls look at this from a different perspective than we do. Vinny, your thoughts on this. Okay, well first of all, there's a couple things. Me and Rob have conversations where we're like, dude, Mark Zuckerberg's an alien. The way that he drinks his water when he was in Congress, if you guys want to look at that on your own, this proves that he's a human. He's a man, alright?

I'm a a human. He's a man. Alright? I'm a man. If he's taking TRT, I don't know. Listen, the guy's doing push-ups, he's beating the shit out of people, and I don't know if he is, because it looks like he broke his nose. He's wearing gel. That testosterone, that manhood, I think is coming out, and I respect it. Number one, number two, Lauren, what's her name, Sanchez? This is is the presidential inauguration you know every camera is going to be on you you got you're in the spotlight you went that that's a lingerie that she's it I understand what you're saying is it a good publicity stunt because the world is talking about her if if you're her yes yes, if you're Bezos, you're a husband, you're the man of the house, Patrick.

You think it bothers you. Him? No, because that's it. I know it would never happen in a million years. If Jen was there, you would go, baby, you're good, and let her leave the house this by the way, we're not going to get a pop out And she would like it come out Dylan would even go nuts But it's like Dylan would get a little bit. Yeah, you're going to be like it would be like mom You can't wear no, you're right. By the way, one thousand

They're gonna maybe above any one of us hundred percent. You can't wear that So so so that's my point is it when they left he looked at that and Jeff Bezos goes we're good, you're good she's wearing a lingerie piece that looks like they got a Victoria's Secret but going back to him I think Zuckerberg congratulations bro to me you're not an alien anymore. Adam I'll come to you next because this is your specialty. Look, so let's just establish facts here. This is Jeff Bezos, soon to be wife, fiance now. By the way, do we remember the name of the woman in the world is? Her name is Mackenzie Bezos.

She, when they had a divorce settlement, she away with I want to say 40 billion dollars 40 billion dollars she became instantly. I think the richest woman in the world if not in the top five So then you have Jeff Bezos goes hold on I Just gave my wife 40 billion dollars. What do I want to do next? Do I need someone to help me build a company? Do I need someone that has my back that looks or do I need someone that just basically do what I say, help me out here any way I want. And this is exactly who is one of the four of us on this table right here. I won't say names spent 10 minutes in the Uber yesterday talking about her assets and the female Uber driver literally is like no I got it guy he's

like they're like Pluto and Neptune put together rocket ship they're like no no we got it wasn't me and it wasn't you and and BVD wasn't in the car with us you can do the math the uber driver is getting so offended she's like sir like I know what you mean like I know what you're talking about we're like hey buddy like she got it he's like oh my god the things we're like no we get it buddy so point is Jeff Bezos knew exactly what he was signing up for he bought her a million dollar engagement ring you know rock your little papa house everything you need and I'll shut up before Let's go to you. Go ahead. What's your analysis? I I think the juvenile subtext has no limit I think is what we got here said she was not at a red carpet

She was not at an art premiere. She was not at a Premier of a movie. Yeah, all of those would be areas where they wear fashion and the fashions have what do they call it daring elements to them. However you're at a state function which is different and I don't know why Jeff Bezos wouldn't say something I assume he would. I don't know why she doesn't have like most of these people have wardrobe consultants because, you know, Oscar DeLaurenta says, hey, Oscar DeLaurenta would like you to wear this. When they find out that a famous person is going to be on the red carpet or doing something, they usually want you to be wearing their stuff.

So I don't know what happened here. A lot of people, when they go to something like this, that's what they have. And Lauren Bezos didn't have that. And, you know, she projects herself very, very openly, openly, daringly, and intentionally. She intentionally presents herself in this way. And that's not unusual. We've seen her around the world at all kinds of places, all kinds of things. And you can see, you know, Pat, you've seen it. You can see when someone's posing and when someone's, the paparazzi just took a picture of you or you're walking

down the street someplace, right? You're walking down the street with your girlfriend or your husband and you're going in a restaurant, and they're taking pictures, versus when everybody knows pictures are being taken of them. Everybody knows what's going on, right? And so, that's it. And I think there could have been a little bit more, little bit more- Mackenzie Bezos and, or Lauren Sanchez,

just got a Facebook request, Facebook friend request. Who knows what- Mark Zuckerberg. But, Adam, think about it, who knows what kind of late night they had and they just have to rush out she's like I'll just put on a jacket we know some maybe we're not wild you were the attention economy the eyeball economy we're talking about Lauren Sanchez and her she knows what she has to call she knows what she was doing I think she's I mean let's face, do you think she's out there and wants the

coverage? Oh yeah, not actual coverage, but the coverage. No, no, I mean the media coverage, the pop. I don't think she really doesn't like that. No, I think it's intentional and I think Bezos loved it and I think Bezos want the world to say, that's my girl, okay? And everybody's looking at my girl because he's at a different phase of his life. He's worth $200 billion. Yeah, she'll be just fine. Okay, because he's at a different phase of his life. He's worth 200 billion dollars.

And he's playing a very, very different game. And he looks great himself. The other day while he's sitting there watching his rockets, not watching his rocket folks, I'm not kidding, this is not an analogy or metaphor. He's literally standing there like this, in jeans. It's cold out, it was like 12 inches of snow, I want to say.

No, that's Kentucky. That's Kentucky, different story. All right No, that's Kentucky. That's Kentucky. Different story. Alright, so let's go over here to see what other stories we want to get to here before we wrap up. Oh, God. You know, one of the stories I do want to say that, well, we'll get to that here in a minute, but one of the stories I do want to talk about is Djokovic, which I love what

he did. But let's talk about the ball who performed. Nelly performed at the one you guys were at the Liberty Ball and the Liberty Ball and by the way We love Nelly we had Nelly on a year and a half ago And I'll never forget what Nelly said we opened up our annual convention at the MGM with Nelly nine a.m. He gets a call he says hey, man these guys want you to perform at nine o'clock shit. That's early I never perform at nine o'clock. You sure it's nine o'clock �Yes.� He says, �They just want me to perform at 9 p.m.? I'm normally 11 o'clock.� He says, �No, no, no.

9 a.m.� He gets up. He says, �Never in my life have I given a concert to 10,000 people at 9 a.m. with people on fire.� He couldn't believe it. Anyways, he explains himself because a lot of people went out there talking shit, �Rob, I don't know if you have that clip or not.� And then Snoop, also there's a clip that resurfaced from him in 2017, you know, making fun of the language with the accent of, hey, if you say this, if you say that. But they performed. I think DJ Khaled was there.

Snoop was there, gave a great performance. Nelly was there, lightened it up last night. But here's Snoop from 2017 to now, for those that are performing at Trump's event. Go ahead Rob. So ain't nobody gonna perform for Donald Trump, huh? Which one of you jigaboo ass niggas gonna be the first one to do it? I'm waiting. I'm gonna roast the fuck out of one of you Uncle Tom ass niggas for doing it.

Which one of you niggas gonna do it first? I was the one that performs for him, sir Same guy that's hilarious. So the Rob then go to Nelly who's getting criticism about him performing That's a call the hippo Crip, you know, I have a Crip. How many? Yeah, and by the way Nelly sometimes you forget how many great hits he's got. Seriously. Sometimes you forget. But here's Nelly when people criticize him for performing and look what he says about

the one and a half billion dollars. Go ahead, Rob. I thought you was riding with me because I put on for my city and I try to bring my city up every step of the way. I did not know you was riding with me because you thought I would ride for who you voted for. I didn't know that. I apologize. I apologize. I didn't know that I had to agree with your political choices and I thought it was the things that you do, not the things that you say should be done. If you follow what I do, this shouldn't even be an argument. He's the president.

He won. This isn't a campaign. This isn't the RNC. I'm not out on the political campaign. I didn't get none of that 1.5. You see what I'm saying? Billion from people. To try to help somebody get voted.

Kamala didn't invite you to put you up? No, no, no, no. She didn't invite me. I didn't get nothing. Kamala didn't invite you to uh, No, no, no, no, she didn't invite me. She didn't invite me either, man. I was going to call it home. Man, I understand. Like, so, but I don't, I don't knock the ones that did. I don't knock the brothers and sisters that benefited from it. I don't knock the correspondents that may have.

I kind of love, by the way, I love the way he's reasoning. You can pause it Rob. I love the way he's explaining himself and saying, hey, I'm not judging you, you do what you wanna do, but this is the reason why I'm doing this. So, you know, you were stuck around late enough for him to perform. How was it when he performed?

How was his energy when he was on the stage? What was it like? Listen, Nelly is a performer, he's a performer, and he's one of those guys, I don't care if you're 18 years old or you're 80 years old, hot in here. Everybody knows how that goes. So he crushed it. He had a great performance. I think 90% of the crowd left when the village people hit the stage and there was like literally 500 people left out of 8,000. So front row seats, Nelly was doing his thing. I was actually with Amber Rose during when Trump was dancing and we were having this conversation.

Sweet girl, basically what she said is like, we're so done with the identity politics, so done with the, oh, you're black so you have to vote this way. Oh, you're Asian, you have to vote this way. You're Latino, you have to vote this. You're a man, you have to, you're a woman, you have Asian. You have to vote this way. You're Latino. You have to vote this You're a man. You have to you're a woman. You have to no no no no no Vote your conscience vote what you think is right vote your pocketbook Nellie's a stud I want to say that his father served in the military so salute to you, but I'm gonna come at Snoop for a second Snoop

So Snoop-a-loop Snoop-a-loop Bring your green hat homie. Okay, what is this? Snoop. You know Nelly has a song. Hey, must be the money. Yeah. Is there any other rapper, business person, professional who has zero ideology? He's just out for the money. About a year ago, I remember on the podcast,op came out. Hey, y'all I'm done smoking. I'm going smoke-free. Yeah. Oh, yeah, and we're all like, oh my god Well, did you think I said hell no his entire brand is attached to smoking that good stuff And then the next day just kidding guys. I'm selling smoke-free grills All right, so that way when you cook you don't

Did Kamala call my fucking phone? Did Obama call my motherfucking phone? How'd you kid, yo?

Did any of you niggas call my motherfucking phone? That's good, Rob. That's good. But he's being honest. Nobody called him. Nobody called him. And, Bale, so wait, you mean to tell me this racist Trump pillar, they want, you know, they want people to perform that are of different race and of different color.

It's a wake up call, bro, and I'm happy for it. Wake up call to everybody. You were duped for nine years and now it's cool. It's cool to do the dance. It's cool to wear the red hat. Dude, me seeing red hats in Los Angeles, if you wore a red hat that didn't even say make America great again, if it didn't say America great, people were getting punched in the face.

I saw it in Los Angeles. Well listen, all your amateur feedback. Tom, for somebody like you who's been following hip-hop for decades, what's your analysis on this? So I think that we're living in kind of an age of hypocrisy here. So Snoop lives in a world where everything he's done for the last 25 years has been written down by reporters, covered on camera phones as camera phones became everywhere, videotaped before everything he said.

And he commits the unpardonable sin of changing his mind over time. And you got these guys that have girlfriends on day one and three years later she is the she is Satan when heals. Really you change your mind. It's okay to do that but it's not okay to change your mind about a political leader because you know what? The political parties want to tell us that they own our vote somehow, that we are part of their group and we're not allowed to cross lines. And that is the divisiveness of America

that everybody wants. So it's not okay for Snoop. From 2017 to 2025, eight years, some people change their mind on, they work with a musician on a mashup and they don't like how it went out. They were buddies doing the mashup and eight months later they're at each other's throats calling each other out and throwing posts out there on social media attacking one another. Eight months ago you guys are doing a mashup, had your arms around each other my new boy my new friend

This is what I'm doing and then later So snoops not allowed to change his mind and these people are making points here saying why are you? Criticizing me I wasn't getting you know, nobody called me from the other side So I got a call here and I did this this is how I feel Nobody called me from the other side, so I got a call here and I did this. This is how I feel. So the fact that no one's allowed to change their mind and then we all, everybody comes unglued at each other. Adam looks like he's about to come after you Tom.

They find a clip from way back when. To me, there's a lot of, I think people need to step back and take a deep breath here. Oh, snap. Better check yourself. Yo, before you wreck yourself, I was like, yeah, that's for my health. Tom, you're mostly right. And I love that about you because yes, everyone is entitled a little bit of grace to change your mind. The problem that I have with Snoop, it's not that he changed his mind. It's not that he said, Oh, you know, I've come around. It's he straight up was shaming and

humiliating and debasing his own people. Oh yes sir, oh yeah, I'm gonna do that. I can't believe it. Dude that's not changing your mind. That is completely talking down to people. So imagine if you're a black person or imagine if you're any person who in 16 voted for Trump imagine if you're Brandon Tatum imagine if you're Candace Owens you're like oh oh really because I'm a free thinker that's how I got to act hell no Snoop sometimes when I'm playing that game check yourself before you wreck yourself Wow okay yeah all right we're gonna transition to the next story and by the way 2025 type of transition which would there's only two genders we're gonna

transition yeah yeah so that's next so now next story I want to get into is barren trump by the way we walk into the arena at the capital one arena, okay? We're there. We're at one the suites upstairs having a great time everyone's there and all of a sudden They're leaving the capital building and they're coming to the arena and a family comes out first and All the kids are sitting in the front row. You got Ivanka, you got Don, you got Eric, you got Laura, and then you got Baron. Rob, do you have the clip of when Baron walks out? Folks, when Baron walked out, it was as if Elvis Presley walked into the building.

No joke. No, no. No joke. I mean, it's the only applause. I don't even know if I know what you're going to say. Go ahead. Say it. I know what you're going to say.

I think the applaud he got matches what his father got. I was going to say a little bit more. It was such a weird crazy. Can you play this clip? Can you play this clip of Baron when he walked into the Capitol One building? A tall son named Baron, has anyone ever heard of him? Has anyone ever heard of him?

He grew two inches just staying there. Look at this, swagger. Comfortable in his own skin. just staying there. Look at this. Swagger. Comfortable in his own skin. Give me more! He's enjoying this. Bro. Look at that. Gangster. Now he's... Baron is a stud. And you know what I liked about what Don did? Let me tell you what I liked about what Don did let me tell you what I liked about what Don did That's what you know Barron's got a good older brother Don so then the camera starts having a little bit fun with the kids then they go on down there Yeah, and then they go to and says like well, you know, let's see and then Eric gets up So they're having fun now, right?

But then when they go on down and and Don is like. He's listening for the applause. Yeah, he's listening to the applause. And he gave the smile, the smile of he's so happy for his younger brother. You know what I'm saying? You felt no, you know like. Jealousy and animosity. It was such a great moment with the older brother, the oldest brother. I just loved seeing that moment that the older brother is celebrating his youngest brother's moment of getting the kind of love that he's getting. And it was just

great to see. But listen, Barron is a superstar. I don't know what's going to happen with this. Last night we were at the Starlight party and a bunch of his friends were coming up to me. Hey man, I've known the family for years. We've been neighbors with them for a long time. And this guy also, he's like 6'6". What is this? All of his friends are coming up to me, hey man, I've known the family for years, we've been neighbors with them for, and this guy also, he's like 6'6". Like, what is this? All of his friends are tall, not all of his friends are tall, but this guy was definitely tall. And he comes up to me and the boat comes up, we're talking all this stuff with, where Barron's

at and he's got something. He's very, it's going to be interesting, and I'll never forget what he said, he said, Barron, has 60 minutes, anybody approach you about doing something you know interview all this other stuff he says Pat I got to do something first I have to do something my life first Wow he says I have to go first win he says until I win and I have something to talk about I probably won't be doing anything now they're probably gonna try to force him to do something I don't know what's gonna happen with an interview what it happens in the next year, two years, three years, four years.

He graduates from school. But a lot of good signs of what he's going to do. He's also going to stumble. Of course. He's also going to have some girl, you know, attraction, all this other stuff. But he's definitely a superstar. Yeah. The mics are cutting out.

No, I'm good. I can hear you. And what you're mentioning, Pat, was, guys, because the public didn't see it, but before Trump came out, before everybody, you know, the JD Vansons, everybody showed up, the family got sat down first. The kids, you know, what's Don Jr's? The second row was all the grandkids and Kai. And Kai was there. And guys, so the camera hit Laura Trump.

Huge applause. The cameraman was playing games. Every single time it hit Baron, it was like people were standing and applauding and he knows it. He's coming into his own, he gets it and the future of that family, if it's going to be politics or whatever, it already looks extremely bright. It looks really bright, because there's something in his eyes,

like you know, like, he's gonna carry that name, and he's gonna carry it well, and you nailed it. He's gonna stumble, but I mean, we all do. Tom, Tom. Well, I think, you know, there are good things about being the youngest son, and there are bad things about being the youngest son. The bad things about being the youngest, or the are bad things about being the youngest son. The bad things about being the youngest or the youngest child, sometimes you feel left

out. Sometimes you feel like, oh wow, you know, I don't get to do this, I got to stay home. Everybody else is out there. So sometimes you feel that way. The other way, the other thing that is there is you learn from all of your older brothers and sisters. And I feel like Barron carries himself with a lot of class, a lot of dignity. We've had an opportunity to chat briefly at all of us, you know, at Mar-a-Lago. And he comes across as the most down-to-earth, but the most, you know, wise and informed

because he lives in a tough environment. There is an environment out there that would love to see him trip on the sidewalk and say oh what a bad example of his for his dad oh his dad he knows that the world's out there waiting to do that that it's a that's an evil press corps that just waits but he just seems very straight up very down to earth remember he talked a little about a college. Where am I going to college? What am I doing? He talks about the adventures that he's just had as a guy growing up with a good buddy, Bo. And I just got so much respect for that. And I feel like you're seeing here the younger son under the great mentorship of his older brothers and sisters, absorbing it and not trying to be

like the rebellious little brother and just being just a great kid. And hats off to him. Look, I haven't spent any time with him at all. So I can't really tell you anything about Barron, but I've heard very good things. Here are a couple of facts. Loudest applause yesterday in the arena was Baron Trump.

Louder than Trump himself. I think so. Yes or no? Yeah. He's the only one whose mother has been the First Lady and is the First Lady. So don't forget that is very special. He's the only Trump kid who actually lived in the White House.

I think when he came to the White House, he was what, 10, 12 years old House, he was what 10 12 years old now He's 18 19 years old. He's I think it was the NYU Right liberal universities ever exist in the history of the world. He may go to Georgetown Okay, so he may switch now that their office Yeah, so, you know, we spent a lot of time with his good buddy Bo loud and actually hung up with Bo's parents at the Charlie Kirk event, the Turning Point USA event. But here's my caveat. We've seen Bo, you know, they're

going to pick on his height a little bit. Listen, I'd rather be 6'8 than 4'8. I'll tell you that much. But I don't know if I've ever heard Baron speak. Have you? What does he stand for? I'm not saying you guys I'm saying the audience has he ever spoke publicly does he speak well is he charming is he funny is he smart I don't know I generally am curious so I'm awaiting the time when Baron gets on the stage and says here's what I think yeah here's what I stand for so that time's come all right let's we got five minutes left and I'm trying to see which stories do we want to go through do you want to

go through AOC do we want to go through. Do we want to go through AOC? Do we want to go through Musk when he spoke on stage and made the gesture? Do we want to go through China? Do we want to go through? Musk. Do you want to go through Musk? Okay, let's go through Musk. So where is the story with Musk here, Rob?

What page is it on? Is it in the addendum? Nope, that's the first page, page three of the original prep. Trump and I are going to be long. Musk offers Maga rally Nazi like standing calls it odd looking. Do you want to play this clip? Thank you for making it happen. Thank you.

My heart goes out to you. My heart goes out to you. It is thanks to you that the future of civilization is assured. Thanks to you. Tom. That's not it. Yeah, a lot has been talked, there's been a lot said about this. I don't know. I see what people are saying. I see what he's saying.

Okay, puts it right on his heart and goes out. Then he also says, my heart goes out to you. So I don't know what was in his head, and I see how people were talking about it, but I don't know. I don't know if I can draw the conclusion. And I think it looks a little weird, but I have a tough time with a hard conclusion Adam. Well, look Elon There's so many good things I can say about Elon smart intelligent witty the richest man in the world You know you talk about golf scores all the time. Yeah, you know if you played Madden He's you know a 99 on wealth a hundred on wealth 99 99 on strength, speed, agility, all that. Listen, Elon, public speaking maybe isn't your thing. Stand-up comedy maybe isn't your thing. So if he paid a little bit,

just a little bit more attention, maybe preparation before going on stage, he would sort of avoid any gaps. Now, he literally did a... And I go, whoa, what was that? Now, as a Jewish person, let me help you guys out out there. He's not a Nazi. He doesn't go to Nazi rallies. He's not a fan of Adolf Hitler. Stop it. I can already see the ridiculous media attacking this guy.

Here it is. Reuters, Elon Musk's hand gesture during Trump interview festivities, draw scrutiny. The guy was talking about space. I'm sure it looked awkward. I'm sure it looked weird. I'm sure if he had a chance to do it all over again, he probably wouldn't go out throw a sea cow out there to the atmosphere. He's more interested in going to Mars. So he's gonna sustain this attack, but on behalf of the Jewish community relax the guys on the good team He's on Team America. He wants the good guys to win many sustain this attack. He's gonna be just fine for for all the people out there

Yeah, great point because if you're playing the Hitler Nazi He whatever just shut up. Just shut up. you got first of all the guys autistic he has ass burgers this guy has never been in the limelight he's not he's done interviews which he's freaking amazing he will put your lights out and he did it to that BBC reporter like I don't think he never thought in a million years this guy would be good remember the last rally he went to where he was jumping he's so excited I don't know if you guys have ever dealt with people that have Asperger's or they have these conditions they have autism I have family members that do I friends that do they they don't go in front

Of crowds they don't do this type of stuff the guy's genuinely excited. He's telling his heart is going out to them He's in the moment. He's not sitting thinking about it He's not planning it so for people to try to do it bother this story will be dead after tomorrow nobody gives a damn by this guy has bigger bigger plans he has bigger missions did it look bad yeah for people that were kind of looking to say oh hey Hitler which I mean how many more Hitler jokes and Holly Charlie Kirk just walked by Charlie we love you so yeah I think I think it's people that are searching and they're looking for something there's and like they always say about the There's no there there Rob. Can you do me a favor?

We have two things I just sent you play the one with Kamala Harris with Elon Musk for the audience to see go ahead and Play this one if you could Okay, and then go to the other picture. Go to the other picture. And you look at this one here, Obama. I don't even know why they put Colbert there. You got Trump, you got Musk, you got Hillary with the old

real estate haircut, you got Elizabeth Warren. Who is the bottom right? I can't see the bottom right. Is that Joe Biden? Bottom right is Joe Biden, above that Laura Ingrahamraham Laura Ingraham which she was there at the Starlight dinner as well last night yeah I mean look there's some basic things you have to realize and you can be very good at a lot of things and still need help with image mannerisms like when I watch, you know, I have kids.

One of my kids will shake your hand and it will go like this. How are you? What's your name? Vincent. Great to meet you. Okay. The other son of mine goes like this. How are you?

Right? And guess what? They're different. Alright? They're different. One of them, you can sit there and talk politics for hours. And you're going to have the time of your life. The other guy could care less about politics. Talk to them about. And you're going to have the time of your life. The other guy could care less about politics.

Talk to him about sports. You're going to have the time of your life. One of the guys can go up to a girl and say, here, hold my hand, you're my girlfriend for the weekend. At five years old. The other guy's like, no man, I'm not interested, right? But eventually, they were showing clips of Barron in the first administration where he was a little bit awkward.

And whoever worked on Barron to clean up his, you know, and whoever worked on Bezos to clean him up, I mean maybe Muska's got to hire somebody like that. Just kind of see, hey, a few basic things for that, and long term, everybody's going to learn about everyone's motives, intentions, desires, visions, goals. And I had a very interesting meeting with somebody and I said, so what do you think's Elon's vision long term? And that led to a very interesting conversation. Long term, we're gonna realize everyone's visions,

motives, desires. Sometimes it takes five, 10, 15, 20 years. The night is still way too young. What I can tell you is, it is 2025, January 21st, Trump is in office, new way of thinking, back to common sense, back to if you do the right thing, good things will happen to you the next four years. And my suggestion to everybody watching this, do not waste the next four years. Be intentional, have a plan, get into the right communities, find the right

alliances, get into places where you're going to collaborate with others. I cannot tell you how many business cards we have, how many people we did business with, how many, Tom, how many people are we going to do business with just from the last four days of people we spoke to? Oh, it's tremendous. So there's literally hundreds of people and we've got a short list that's going to take us a month and a half to get through all the follow-up. And Tom being one of the best guys at Work in the Room, people just love Tom.

When you see Tom working in the room, it's absolutely incredible. But I hope you guys watching this here, as a husband, you choose to lead your family. As a mother, you choose to lead your family and your community. As a business owner, you do your best to take advantage the next four years to make the opportunity better for your clients, better for your customers, better for your employees, better for your community. As somebody that works at a company, find a way to become a better leader for the company, to help the company go to the next level.

As a content creator, it's going to be tough the next four years because you don't have a lot of enemies now. So you're going to see the next four years, who's going to rise up, who's not, who's going to recreate themselves. This is going to be a very, very unique era we're going through and we're going to learn a lot the next four years. And like I said in 2025, the year of surprises, the surprises are just getting warmed up. So if you think you're very good at predictions, don't forget, go to vtnews.ai and make your

predictions. There's a hundred days we're going to go through. I think we're barely on day 19 of different predictions being made.
