New York City Mayor Mondani just issued a statement that has everybody freaking out. Listen to this. Mamdani set off a lot of critics with what they see as hostile statement. And here's how it reads. I'm going to read it to you. This day marks three years since the horrific war crimes of October 7th.
Starting point is 00:00:48 On that day, Hamas killed more than 1,100 Israelis and abducted 251 others. The suffering did not begin nor end that day. It instead continued through the Israeli government's devastating ongoing genocide in Gaza. Three years later, we must refuse to accept a world in which occupation and apartheid continue, where war crimes are met with impunity. Yeah. So this statement by Zoramandani is really sparking a lot of backlash. I can't remember a time where we've seen this amount of people respond to a post by Mondani.
Starting point is 00:01:22 This is definitely going to take the cake, and I wouldn't be shocked. It would continue to see part of the mainstream media cover this, whether it's cover this. And so the beginning, though, I just want to go to it. It says this day is profoundly painful for so many New Yorkers. It marks three years since the horrific war crimes of October 7th. On that day, Hamas killed more than 1,100 Israelis and abducted 251 others. We grieve alongside our many friends and neighbors who still carry that unthinkable loss. Now, if it was me, I would have ended the statement right there.
Starting point is 00:01:53 But then he goes on, as you guys heard in that clip. and makes this entire statement about Palestine or Palestinians, that is, and then accuses Israel of committing a genocide. And as a result, people are not taking that very well. Here's an example of that. I am seething over his comments. They're absurd and they're utterly false. There is no genocide going on in Gaza.
Starting point is 00:02:16 There is no apartheid and there is no occupation. The man knows that what he says is not true. It would be the equivalent of on the 25th anniversary of 9-11 for him to have gotten up and said, yes, it was tragic that those airliners flew into the World Trade Center, but America overreacted, and America took on more than it should have, and America should be condemned for reacting to the slaughter of its people. Israel properly reacted to the massacre and the butchering of so many civilians, including... Now, just so we're clear, this is one of those issues where you're not going to find anybody agreeing with nuance,
Starting point is 00:02:54 common ground. You either believe Israel committed a genocide or you don't. You're either pro-Israel or you're anti-Israel. There is no room for nuance. Okay. And I know this very well because, as you guys know, that's how I like to assess things is with nuance. And the bottom line is very clear. The American people no longer support Israel in the way that they did, whether it was five years ago or 10 years ago. And that continues to be an issue, especially politically, if you're running for like, office. So it's no shocker that Mondani not only made this statement, but knows technically this isn't going to work against him. Look at these numbers. American sympathy for Israelis fell by 18 points from 54%, now down at 36% currently, while sympathy for Palestinians increased
Starting point is 00:03:44 10 points from 31 to 41% in 2026. The Gallup poll found that Palestinians numerically ahead for the first time in this trend. So regardless of, you know, how you might feel about what's being said about this, it is having an impact on American opinion. Yep, it sure is. So if you're on the left in the Democrat Party, the effect is you can't be pro-Israel and run for elected office. It just isn't going to work. We've seen people lose their election because of this very issue right here. So that's number one. Now, on the other side of it, Republicans, which is number two, or conservatives that is online in particular, you can't be pro-Israel and America first. Right?
Starting point is 00:04:26 So there's a divide there as well. So the divide on the right is more Israel-based. The divide on the left is more Palestinian-based, if that makes sense. And so it's an interesting dynamic playing out in America. And I'm more the guy that's like, can we just focus on what's happening in our own backyard, things that are impacting negatively kitchen table issues? Like, can we focus in on that? Now, it obviously doesn't help when you hear Mandani say this.
Starting point is 00:04:56 What do you think are the lessons from that day? I think when we're talking about the third anniversary of October 7th, we're talking about the third anniversary of a horrific war crime where Hamas killed more than a thousand people kidnapped hundreds more. We're also talking about the anniversary of a day when the Israeli government responded to that by initiating a genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. that has continued to this day. It has killed tens of thousands of people,
Starting point is 00:05:22 and we know that throughout its time, it has been one that has been financed by our tax dollars. And the lesson of that is, I mean, that's a description of what happened. I think the lesson for all of us is that humanity has to be something that we believe in in its fullest sense. We have to protect it, and we have to be able to call an atrocity what it is and fight for a future where everyone is protected,
Starting point is 00:05:45 no matter who they are, where they come from. Now, if you want to be objective, fair in this particular debate, which again, in my opinion, should not be the hottest debate on the internet, but it is, shouldn't really have the impact it's having on both sides politically, but it is. There are people who are raised as Palestinians to hate Israel. I mean, that's true. I mean, so even if we went with the logic of what he's saying that, everybody should be protected, everybody should be safe, we know he's not going to hold his side to that same standard, if that makes sense. He just isn't going to do it.
Starting point is 00:06:19 Now, I do want to mention this, and I don't know how you guys are going to feel about this one, but I don't think it's a surprise that we're seeing this level of sentiment because we have people in the media getting away with saying things like this.

Starting point is 00:07:11 Here's some of what he actually has said about the depravity of the October 7 terror attack. the deadliest day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust. Quote, it doesn't matter if effing rapes happened on October 7th. Like, that doesn't change the dynamic for me. The Palestinian resistance is not perfect. Now, let that sink in. Hassan Pucker is excusing sexual violence by Hamas terrorists.
Starting point is 00:07:36 He also claims Hamas is, quote, a thousand times better than Israel. Hamas is a designated terror organization, not just by the U.S., but by the EU, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, just to name a few. Now, you may say, well, DeVoree, Hassan Piker is just a streamer from California. Okay, sure. I'll give you that. He's just some guy on the internet.
Starting point is 00:07:57 Who cares about his opinion? But should we care about the opinion of his good friend, Abdul Elsa Head? Because he echoed some of the same sentiments. Listen to this. One of your supporters we interviewed seemed to think that Iran was a bigger threat. Israel, he seemed to think Israel was a bigger threat than Iran to the United States. do you agree well look at the end of the day our job is to address our issues diplomatically but you know right now we are in the war in iran in part because of the advocacy of the israeli
Starting point is 00:08:26 prime minister that's i mean you're going to be a senator what do you view is the biggest threat i've been more than extremely clear about this i don't want our tax dollars being used to subsidize war abroad i don't want our tax dollars being used to fund unconditionally foreign militaries i think it's important that we be the first among equals to enforce international law against any and every country that breaks it. Okay, so just a heads up here. I'm going to go through this important message from today's sponsor Factor because my routine has taken up beating over these last few months
Starting point is 00:08:54 from vacations and traveling and chaos, you know, we have a new baby and all that other good stuff. Turns out getting back to real food is easier said than done when your fridge is basically a science experiment at this point. What do I mean by that?

Starting point is 00:09:55 So if you're reading between the lines, he does support Netanyahu being arrested. He definitely believes that Israel committed a genocide. We also know that to be true because he has that disagreement with not only with people, the likes of Rahm Emanuel, but with Kamala Harris as well. It's actually one of the, the trigger points, so to speak, or the friction that Abdul has right now in the Democrat Party, where he believes the same things that Mondani believes, but you have Jewish voters and even people in politics who are Jewish who disagree with him on that very issue. We showed you a little bit of that in yesterday's video where he got the bad news from black
Starting point is 00:10:33 voters and Jewish voters out of Michigan. Governor Kathy Hockel is also planning to attend a vigil where she will speak. She's chair to statement saying she stands with survivors on this dark day. Also expected today, many other events, including memorials, also a call to create a permanent memorial for the victims in Brooklyn. But we also anticipate a lot of protests. And the NYPD is prepared for this, as well as school walkouts against Israel. For instance, at Columbia University, which is the site of many pro-Palestinian rallies throughout the past several years. Now back here at City Hall, we are also expecting a protest here to get today later this afternoon, actually against.
Starting point is 00:11:08 Mayor Mondani, where New Yorkers plan to call him out for what they believe is him not fulfilling his campaign promises. Well, it'll be interesting to see who's actually going to be protesting against Mondani as relates to that issue. Who's going to be protesting against him as relates to his statement today? I mean, you do have elected Democrats in Congress criticizing the mayor for saying things like this. I'll show you an example of that.
Starting point is 00:11:34 Here is Congresswoman Schultz, desecrating the memory of murdered, innocent Jews. today of all days and refuse them to even condemn Hamas is obscene. There are 364 other days you can wrongly criticize Israel for defending herself. If you had respect for the dead, you just acknowledged a tragedy, but you don't. And she's not the only Democrat. This has been going on and on all over social media today. And of course, there's more. To support the Palestinian people.
Starting point is 00:12:02 But again, that statement that he released came out earlier this morning just about an hour ago. and we do expect to hear responses from that today as well, including those in support, as well as those against. For instance, the Anti-Defamation League just shared this post on X, saying, quote, you are weaponizing a day meant for mourning the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust. The city with the largest Jewish population outside Israel deserves a mayor who can honor the dead without exploiting them. Now, the fair reaction to this, in my opinion, would be, Zoroamandani is not wrong for believing in whatever he believes.
Starting point is 00:12:36 If he believes Israel committed a genocide, he has a prerogative to do so. It's his right to do so. The problem is that he's issuing a statement that doesn't unite New Yorkers. It only divides them. So for that reason, it's the wrong statement. He missed the mark. And he's not being the leader that New York City needs him to be. Which brings us to what the president had to say in his statement.
Starting point is 00:13:01 And you can already tell the difference. The president just said moments ago, three years ago, today on October 7th, the world witnessed one of the darkest and most evil days in the history of Israel. Innocent men, women, and children were murdered. Kipnaut am subject to unimaginable horrors at the hands of Hamas terrorists. Today, we remember every innocent life taking honor the survivors and their families and remember the hostages who endured the unthinkable. Let me get to the end here. We will never forget October 7th. We will never forget the victims and we will also stand against forces of terror and evil. And you can tell in there he didn't pick any side. He did highlight what Hamas. which is public record.
Starting point is 00:13:38 But at any rate, you guys let me know what you think about all of this so far. All right, let's go to our next update. And I would argue this is great news after CNN came out and covered the story regarding the voter registration data between the Republican Party and the Democrat Party as we get closer to the midterm elections. Listen to this. Okay, you see the polling over the last two years really moving in the Democrats favor, but are they actually gaining in terms of registration at least?
Starting point is 00:14:06 compared to where we were two years ago. Well, I think this makes it pretty simple, right? Pretty simple. In Pennsylvania, no, North Carolina, no, Nevada, no, Arizona, no. There may be some tiny lake gains that are going on right now, right? That I think over the last month maybe Democrats are getting, but when you take the longer term view versus the 2024 election and which Republicans won all of these states, Democrats are in fact not actually gaining ground. I'm glad you put in that disclaimer because over the last couple months, I think people have seen some ticks up for Democrats, but not over two years. Correct.
Starting point is 00:14:38 There's been some ticks up, but they no way blows away the Republican game. The people that we should be thinking for something like that would be Scott Pressler, turning point action and other grassroots organizations that have done a great job in getting people registered to vote, particularly on the Republican side. There's no doubt, there is no comparison essentially between these two parties as it relates to that issue. So it begs the question when we think of the midterms. we see what the polls are saying, which are outrageous at this point.
Starting point is 00:15:07 I mean, I told you guys, either the polls are massively wrong. And this is going to be one of the biggest polling errors in history, or it's going to be a bloodbath. I'm more likely to believe that the polls are wrong versus the other. But even so, you combine that with this data. More Republicans are registered. So if they show up and vote, it might be closer than what everybody initially is thinking. But there's more to this. You see these trends and these key swing stuff.
Starting point is 00:15:34 How about this one? Okay. Take a look here. The GOP's best party registration position relative to the Democrats in a midterm and at least 20 years, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Nevada, Arizona. The bottom line is this. Republicans right now are in a much stronger position than they have been not just compared to eight years ago, but over the long term as well, the relative health of the Republican Party, at least in terms of party registration, is pretty gosh- darn good relative. So think of it. If you were a political party and you were successful in redrawing congressional maps that favored your party, gave you the potential to have more seats, then you're outpacing voter registration with your opponent. Don't you think you would have a successful midterm election? I mean, on paper? Yeah, of course. But see, the problem, and I've said this, because I think it's fair, is. The president is trying to do something that doesn't actually happen. A president that's in a war winning the midterm election and maintaining a majority. That does not happen. And the only exception was 9-11 in George W. Bush's first term, not second. So it's going to be interesting.
Starting point is 00:16:55 I hope voters really do show up and not hand this country over to chaos. but you know the other issue is not just the war and high gas prices I think it's also messaging I want you to take a look into this clip someone who supports Trump watch how she struggles to answer a very simple question do you feel like your life is better now than it was a year and a half ago I do yes in what way um there's more things being done um changing a lot of stuff that Biden had messed up like what um just a little I can't name a lot stuff, but yeah. What's one thing that he's changed that you're really excited about? I'm trying to
Starting point is 00:17:35 think exactly what. Maybe he's trying to change the gas prices. Gas prices definitely, yes. Gas prices have changed, but they're a little higher now than they were when he took office. Yeah, hopefully they start going down more. And that's what I meant when I said, Republicans have a messaging problem, not just communicating to people who may not be loyal to the Republican Party and they're on the fence, but also to their own voters. I mean, there's some serious wins on the board for the president. If you can't tell someone when you're confronted over it, then you're not actually paying attention here.
Starting point is 00:18:08 The border is secure. No one's crossed that border in over a year. That's a huge thing. Fetanol, trafficking and overdoses are down. Crime is down, particularly in Washington, D.C., Memphis, New Orleans. These are locations where the president deployed federal resources. That matters. The Trump accounts is another thing.
Starting point is 00:18:29 I mean, just imagine if someone continues to contribute to that account over the course of 18 years. Imagine how much money that young adult is going to be able to start their lives with. That's a huge thing. Now, you might debate over tariffs. Maybe you thought they were good. Maybe you thought they were bad. I definitely wouldn't bring up gas prices. I mean, I'm not going to gaslight people over that.
Starting point is 00:18:50 Clearly, gas prices are high. That's clear. What about the crackdown on DEI and how it was weaponized? What about releasing pro-lifers and pardoning people who are weaponized by the Biden DOJ? You know, those are real things. What about pushing back on anti-Semitism on these campus universities? Right. Those are real accomplishments.
Starting point is 00:19:11 What about making funding permanent for HBCUs? Right? Those are real things. So we should be able, if you do support the president, to at least articulate one to three positions that are a positive, what your party affiliation is. And it frustrates me when I see things like that because I'm like, this is the messaging problem. And there's plenty of wins and obviously other stuff is up for debate. Now, the good news is people who are up for re-election and people who are running for Congress, not all of them are really that great for the Democratic Party. So whether you're thinking
Starting point is 00:19:50 of Abdul Elsa Head or you're thinking about James Tyler Rico, both of these candidates had no business winning. And I don't think they will. But I'm going to add someone else to that list. And that would be Troy Jackson. I want you to take a look at what happened to him last night. Medicare for All obviously has been associated nationally with the Democratic Socialists of America, one of the key policy platforms. You've said you don't identify with a label on this, but 39% of Americans polled,
Starting point is 00:20:13 I believe actually Maynors polled in a recent poll, have an unfavorable view of socialism. Can you clarify? Are you a member of the DSA? Is that why you support Medicare for All? Just so voters are clear on where you stay. I support Medicare for all so that people that I know across the state have health care. I mean, it's the worst thing in the world for somebody to lay there at night and not know what's happening to them, what is happening in pain in their chest, and be afraid to go and get the services that they need because they know they can't afford it.
Starting point is 00:20:42 And they can't afford the drugs that, you know, big farmers charge. He required to show ID at the polls. Yes or no, Troy Jackson. No, as it working longer, many times I went to the polls without my ID. No. Senator Collins. Yes, only Americans should vote in American elections. I don't think that's too much to ask.
Starting point is 00:21:01 Some of you guys have probably already heard the problem with Troy Jackson regarding his personal situation. But let's hold the same standard like we do with other people running in our elections like Ken Paxson. Let's remove the personal stuff aside and focus on policy. Troy Jackson is a guy who he doesn't even have the balls to admit that he's a part of the DSA or he buys into their policies. That's number one. Number two, he just blatantly says that he doesn't actually support voter ID, which is a 90-10 issue in America. I mean, these are the candidates that Democrats are offering up. So, yeah, I love voter registration data as a reminder that the Republican Party, they've been doing some serious work on the ground.
Starting point is 00:21:39 I'm hoping that people who are on the fence see clips like that and say, you know what, I may not agree with everything that the Republican Party has done. and maybe I am upset at what the president hasn't been able to do, but that doesn't mean I'm going to hand the country over to chaos. Now, if you guys need one more example, this is Wes Moore during his debate. Watch this. My next questions are about your personal backgrounds, beginning with Governor Moore. At times, others have misstated or exaggerated some of your personal story. And one time you misstated your history yourself,
Starting point is 00:22:10 when you applied for a federal fellowship, you claimed a bronze star award from your Army service that you had not yet earned. You have since earned. Do you have any regrets about how you handled that situation or the ensuing scrutiny of your Bronze Star? I'm incredibly proud of my military service. When I was 17 years old, I raised my hand to serve this country. When I was working in finance, I gave up my job
Starting point is 00:22:34 to go serve and deploy with the 82nd Airborne Division in Afghanistan. And so I am deeply proud of my service, and I think, frankly, it's why people are so tired about these kind of attacks in politics. because my definition of patriotism was being able and being willing to raise my hand and fight for this country because I love it that much. And I will never, ever allow anybody,
Starting point is 00:22:58 particularly people with political motivations, to be able to question that or give me a reason to feel like in any way I should be ashamed of it.

What about from that perspective? Because if we look at it from that perspective, you should be ashamed for lying about receiving a bronze star when you never did until after the fact when it blew up in your face and you had to run to your special friends in a private closed ceremony to finally get issued that bronze star. And guys, by the way, he was already out of the military for quite some time.
Starting point is 00:24:05 Okay. So, I mean, this, again, is one of those issues where the governor would have been better just telling the truth and being honest. But he won't do that. And again, this is the example of what Democrats are offering, offering members who essentially have committed stolen valor, members who are having sexual relationships with their cousin, don't believe in voter ID, isn't willing to just come to grips with their support for the DSA, individuals who believe America deserve 9-11, individuals who believe that it's America's fault for what happened in Gaza. Yeah, that's who we're talking about when we're talking about the Democrat Party. And we're still not even getting into open borders, sanctuary cities, vaccine mandates, censorship, weaponized government. Right. There's so much there.
Starting point is 00:24:56 And so I think the contrast is clear. I don't think it's a exciting one. And I'm fair in that regard where I am with you guys. I don't believe the Republican Party has done a good job of earning anybody's vote. And people shouldn't just be. expect it to vote for them because that's the problem with Democrats, right? They expect Black America and other people of color using their language to vote for them regardless. They don't need to deliver on anything. I don't think the Republican Party should operate that way,
Starting point is 00:25:24 but I do believe they should do what Democrats have failed to do, earn people's vote for a change, which is why the president is traveling all around the country in these certain states to try to get the votes for the Republican Party in this upcoming election.
