Michigan kind of feels like it's over before it even began, right? Over before it's begun. Because El-Said was not the candidate you wanted. No, sorry. Michigan's about to flip and no wonder. This guy, this guy's trouble. This guy is big trouble. We've got trouble right here in River City.

We're going to get into all of that. Plus, a lot going on in Iran. Besson's putting the squeeze on those Iranian elites as they try and flee. the country who got some details on that. And I want to talk a little bit about Wolk Hollywood No More. Donald Trump set ready to take it over. He announced a big, big, big initiative last night. And you know what's amazing? Not a peep out of one Hollywood actor. Not one peep. And all the big industry groups are like, well, yeah. You may just get it. Anyway, welcome to the program, everyone. I'm Tristrieg. Make sure you subscribe, share, like.

and we begin today on El Saeed may have landed himself in trouble from which he cannot recover from. This guy is like imploding in real time, and it's all happening because of things he's done. In other words, you're getting the candidate that you voted for, you're socialists in Michigan, and guess what? It means that he's probably not going to win, and we're probably going to be sending Mike Rogers, thank goodness, to the Senate. You see, they have just uncovered, they have just uncovered a rather, inappropriate heinous tweet from him. He said a few heinous things. I mean, don't forget,

hurt people, hurt people, remember in regards to what had happened at Temple Israel there in Michigan, and he was trying to give it excuses. And now he's trying to give excuses for the 9-11 tweet that he sent out. Well, our friends at Washington Free Beacon, they found it because he's deleted it. And here it is, I'm going to read it. Okay, today I'm worn the 3,000 lives, 6,000 injuries. and infrastructural devastation in New York City perpetuated ignorantly in the name of my faith. At least he admits that. Tomorrow, however, I'll mourn about a million lives, millions of injuries, and infrastructural devastation in three countries perpetuated ignorantly in the name of my country.

So, yeah, tell us how you really feel. We know who your buddy is, Hassan Piker, the guy goes on and on and on about how much he hates America. Yeah, that's who this guy hangs out with. now he's in a situation where he's going to have to, have to explain. And so far, it's not looking good. We noticed that there were some resurfaced posts on 9-11. And I was wondering if it's making it challenging to reach more Republican or more moderate voters in this race. Well, I mean, I think all of us look back and say 9-11 was an awful thing that happened to this country. And I I think all of us also look back and say, think about all the wars that were fought,

and how much safer do we feel like they made us? My point is just to say that what happened on 9-11 is a disaster. It was a terrible attack on our country. And our responsibility is also to think about how do we build in America where we are protecting our servicemen and women from being asked to fight wars. We have no business fighting. He's trying to weasel his way out of that one. I don't think it's going to work. I really don't. Not to mention the hurt people, hurt people

comment when you're talking about little kids. Caitlin Collins asked him about that last night, sort of, on CNN. And he tried to muster up an answer for that one too. I mean, this is not good. And by the way, it's coming, right, as we approach the 9-11 anniversary watch. In a synagogue in Michigan back in March, at the time, you condemned the attack but said violence is a cycle and quote, hurt people, hurt people. You actually apologized for those comments over the weekend. Why now, six months after your initial remarks? I have had the opportunity to listen to folks, that I learned how it hit them. My goal wasn't to cause anybody pain at all. I grew up in the community in which Temple Israel sits. I got to go to Bar and Bat Mitzvahs at Temple Israel.

I'm grateful for the opportunity I got to spend with my Jewish sisters and brothers. And as I've traveled to this state. I've heard that that comment caused a lot of pain, and it was not my intention to cause any pain at all. But I'm big enough to apologize when I make mistakes. Okay. Okay. This guy's just going to understand. Because basically, what he has figured out is that he is not polling well with a lot of people. He's not polling well with Jewish Democrats in the state of Michigan. He's also not polling well with black Americans because this whole socialism thing doesn't really fly with working class Americans, whether they're black or white. So guess what? Detroit doesn't like the guy. He's polling worse than Detroit than any Democratic.

Blue candidate has ever polled in Detroit. So he's got a lot of problems. And I'll tell you, he's sinking himself, sinking himself in real time. This is pretty good. You got to see it, guys. He went out to do a press conference. He put someone forward. I guess she was supposed to represent Black America for him, given how badly he's doing in those polls. And, well, it did not go so well. I'm like, I'm looking at this press conference. He's trying to save himself in Michigan. And my question is, is this an Abdul-Sal-Said press conference? Or is this a hostage situation? You tell me, okay?

Oh, that's real dead time. She's on the air. She just can't talk yet. I mean, I kept playing it just to make sure. My God Rogers has a history of voting for bills that protect corporations and harm workers. Oh, my gosh. El-Sayed is running. to be our next Michigan State Senator who does not accept corporate PAC money, who stands with

the workers of our community. And moving forward, he is the best person for this assignment. That was almost as bad as bananas and rice. Oh, okay. So you might want to work on who's representing you to the public. Make sure that they are comfortable, public speaking. I realize it's not for everyone. Believe me, I get it. It can be quite terrifying. And she looks like she was quite terrified. But you know what? She should be terrified. We should all be terrified because if this guy got to first base, I think we'd have some serious problems in that he does not represent the values that represent America. And you have only to ask his competitor that who's making the most out of all of it. Mike Rogers. And think of this, all of this from the guy who believes football and

four trucks are racist. Wow. Now it's over. He thinks his home. of Egypt is beautiful, but our great Mackinac Island, he hates it. It's true. It's true. We ran that video the other day. I showed you guys. He's like, oh my gosh, I hate this place. What's going to happen if I win? I'm going to have to come here more. He hates Maconaut Island. It's like the most beautiful part of Michigan. I looked at going, it was like that or Italy this summer. In all seriousness, Italy, believe it or not, was cheaper. So it worked out that way. But Magna Island is absolutely stunning. Hassan Piker. is a big problem for one, Abdul El-Said.

You see, Hassan Piker is his bestie, and Hassan Piker is not exactly who you want as a bestie if you're planning to go to the U.S. Senate because Asan Piker hates America. Hassan Piker tells us over and over again, how we deserve 9-11, and I hate America, I hate America. You know, I won't play it for you, but I watched a whole, because it was just laced with obscenities,

but I watched a whole minute-long clip reel of him before the show of him saying, I hate America, I hate FN America, I hate F in America and then a few more F-bombs along the way. So just to, you know, kind of give you a taste of who Hassan Piker is. And Abdul Saeed is his guy. Oh, yeah, he said as much. He went on with like Charlemagne or whatever that guy's name is on his little radio show. Watch.

Abdul al-Said is my guy, right? He's a Rhodes Scholar. He's a doctor. He's a stud, too. He's a wonderful person, right? But he wasn't getting a lot of attention initially in his race. and he reached out to me and said, oh, let's go, let's do a campaign rally together. Oh. Well, now he's got the attention. Just not exactly the kinds you want, right? Because it's from this guy.

America deserved 9-11, dude. Dude, I don't really ever want to see your face again. Dude, you don't deserve to have any followers. I don't know who follows you. I think it's kind of random. Probably some young people who don't know better. or, dude, if you were a friend, Abdul al-Said, you might actually tell him to hit the ground running and get away from you as fast as he possibly can, but he's clearly too dumb to do any of that.

And now he goes out on the cable networks, and he's like, this isn't about Hassan Pikes. Oh, you better believe it is. He's your friend. He's campaigning for you and with you, Abdul-El-Said. This campaign is not about a streamer in California. This campaign is about affordability in Michigan. This campaign is about the ability to have health care.

The streamer California does campaign with a lot of Democrats, so he's not just a streamer. This campaign is about the challenges Michiganders face. If folks want to make this about a streamer in California, they're welcome to do that. I'm typing and talking as I speak. I'm talented, but I'm not that talented. So forgive me for the typos last Boy Scout. I never thought I'd be playing Hassan Piker either. You know, I didn't actually really know who this guy was.

I had some liberal friends who had told me about him, and I'm like, yeah, whatever, whatever. And then he's out there, and he's campaigning for Abdul El-Said, for Ilhan Omar. I mean, he loves Rashida. He loves the whole gang, right? So then I started paying attention. I'm like, this guy's really pretty darn bad. He's bad, bad, bad news. And you know who else is paying attention?

Our friend over at CNN, the only talent worth watching. besides Scott Jennings, who I don't think will be there for long because I suspect he's going to the White House. But here's Harry Anton, okay? And he crystallizes exactly why Abdul El-Said might want to sing a new tune, or maybe the Democrats could pull a Biden. Could they just get rid of him right now and put like a Kamala in? There you go. Now we're talking. Here's Harry. In Senate Rogers versus Elside, look at this, a new Fox News poll. Rogers is actually up He's up by four points. He's up by four points.

It's close, but a Republican is ahead in Michigan. And why? Why? What is going on? Look among independents. Rogers actually leads by five. This is extremely unusual because across the political map, as I was looking at these different Fox News,

I couldn't find another example where the Republican was actually leading among independence. And it turns out that candidate quality may in fact matter, at least in terms of how voters see it, because in this same poll, the Democratic candidate for governor was ahead. So this is unique to the Senate race. And it is quite a troubling result for Democrats and quite a heartening one for Republicans. So do you have a sense, then, Harry, of what it is that is contributing to the struggles, right, that Abdul Al-Assad is. Is it that Rogers is a stronger candidate or is it that El-Sayat has more issues for voters to deal with? It is all about Abdul Al-Sahed.

He is a weak candidate, at least by the metrics that we normally look at. And you could just take a look here. Okay, the net favorability rating of the Dem Senate candidates across these northern battlegrounds. You notice there's only one candidate rent, one who has an unfavorable rating higher than his favorable rating, and it is significantly higher. Look how far underwater Abdul Osayette is. He is 13 points underwater under there in Lake Michigan. My goodness gracious, Troy Jackson and Maine. He's at plus one.

You got Sherrod Brown at plus four in Ohio, and Josh Turrick and Iowa way above there at plus 18 points. This is extremely unusual. Again, across the map, Democrats have done such a good job recruiting candidates who are well-liked by the voters. Again, I looked at all the Fox News posts. All the Democrats were above water except for Abdul Al-Assad, and he has 13 points underwater. This is all about Abdul al-Said being a weak candidate, at least in the minds of the voters.

And so then just putting that perspective, too, in the state of Michigan, this is, I mean, you touched on this, right? But this is especially important when you look at things in the state of Michigan. Yeah, okay. So you look at this first slide, right? You see that Mike Rogers is ahead right by four points. Well, I was interested because I couldn't think of another example

where you actually had a Democratic candidate who was down at least four points, four points in a Senate poll in Michigan, and it turns out for this entire century, Abdul Assad is the only one in a poll that meets CNN standards for publication. This is extremely, extremely, extremely unusual. Abdul Assaid breaking records in the ways that you don't want to.

In fact, he is the first Democrat down by this much as I said in the century since 1994. Now, I will note, obviously, we have a campaign to go, and I think there are different ways you can look at this metric, right? It's unbelievable. They were so stupid to put him in, right? But, you know, there's a lot of reasons for it. A lot of reasons they hated Trump so much.

They got so distracted by how much they hated Trump that they didn't come up with any solutions for people. And so people are sitting there and they're hurting, right? And they're like, it's either Trump or something else entirely. And so there's something else entirely becomes communism. And it's never worked out well. We know that's so well. Anyway, Donald Trump knows that well too.

You don't want to count your chickens before you, they hatch, but in some of these races, I'm telling you, he's right. You know, they got commies. So we're going to do better. Here he is, speaking about midterms. I think we're going to do very well because we have communists. We have a party that's been infiltrated by bad thought, by bad policy. I used to talk about socialism, but this isn't socialism.

This is largely communism. I look at the people running like in Michigan. I watched this interview the other day with Jesse, and I said, wow, this man is out of it. This is very dangerous for our country. I'm not saying good guy, bad guy. I'm just saying this is big, big trouble for our country. Likewise, many others.

And what's happened is your sane Democrats, of which are fewer and fewer, are forced to vote in a way that they would not vote, and they don't even believe in their vote. But if they don't vote that way, they lose power. With all of that being said, I think we're going to do well. Yeah, because you get some commies running. It's certainly, you know, Mike Rogers' stock is going up every single day.

He's a former FBI agent. He says, well, he's got a good line. I don't want to give it away. Here he is, Mike Rogers at a rally. Former FBI agent. I busted swindlers and the mob, drug dealers, murderers, human traffickers, terrorists. And I have to tell you this, I know a con man when I see one. Conman Abdul can't answer the question about gender transition surgeries for children because he supports it.

Conman Abdul can't answer a question about letting violent criminals and sex offenders out of our prisons because he believes him. He can't condemn his running mate, Hassan Piker, because they're in total lockstep. And now he's degraded the second lady of the United States of America. So I say this, we have a lot of Indian-American friends here. Yeah, yeah. He did degrade her pretty badly. He made some stupid comment about probably J.D.'s grandparents wouldn't have liked meeting her. he couldn't have brought her home to meet the grandparents,

some stupid comment like that. And then something that's even worse, and I even hate to show it to you, but look, this guy is the Democrat nominee for Senate. So you might as well know where the heck this party is. He is a real tool, a disgusting, pathetic, aggressive little tool. What do you think is going through Usha's head when he talks? She's like, damn, I'll have to sleep with him.

I mean, like, I mean, I guess she's pregnant, so I guess something's happening. But, like, you've got to imagine, like, truly zero charisma. Like, Usha, like, get out, okay? That is the Democrat nominee for the U.S. Senate. I think it tells you everything you need to know. J.D. defended his wife's honor brilliantly. She defended herself. And I'll tell you, this woman who's a Republican strategist, I think,

maybe she has a podcast. She went on to Laura Ingraham's show last night, and she had one of the best defenses yet. She said, first of all, El-Said fundamentally doesn't believe in inter-race marriage. So he doesn't understand why an Indian woman genetically is married to a guy like JD. And then she told me something I hadn't realized. Listen to this. This is a man who doesn't.

like interracial marriage and he has an odd marriage himself. If you look at an old interview he did, he and his wife got married. It seems like it must have been an arranged marriage and then they dated for a year before they lived together as man and wife. So he may also just be jealous of love because it doesn't seem like he actually has the relationship that Jady and Usha have, which we know is a very loving relationship. And it seems like there's a bit of jealousy there. Yeah, just a little bit of jealousy because you see, how does that happen? happen that you have the marriage set, but then you live apart and you date for a year? Like, I don't get it. I don't get it unless it is an arranged marriage. And that's just,

you know, a holdover from Egypt, shall we say. Egypt that you talk about so fondly that you're just desperate to go back to. Well, I say, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go. And don't let the door hit you on the way out. I'll tell you one thing. We don't need you in the U.S. Senate. believe me. And you know what else? A lot of the Democrats there in Michigan, they don't need you, period. They don't need you dragging them down because you're dragging the whole freaking ticket. It's actually great. Here is Debbie Dingell who can't believe she has to answer questions about that bestie, the bestie of Abdul El-Said one Hassan Piker who's out campaigning quite deliberately with all the people that believe 9-11 was America's fault.

Debbie, I don't know how you're going to recover from this one. I don't understand a son, Piker. I'm going to be that honest with you. Many people don't even know who he is. Well, I didn't until he created this crisis when he came into Michigan months ago. Never should have let the guy in. Never should have let him in. And meanwhile, these little crazy lefties that all hate America

and have a very specific viewpoint and are of that Ilhan Omar camp, or of that Rashida Talib camp, of that Mamdami camp, and El Saeed camp, well, they're furious. For CBS News for reporting this. You see, it was actually Washington Free Beacon. I guess they were willing to give Washington Free Beacon a pass because Washington Free Beacon is seen as more on the conservative side than CBS had been historically.

And so he puts this tweet out, You know what? Today I mourn the 3,000 lives, 6,000 injuries, et cetera, et cetera. In the name of my faith, tomorrow, I'm going to mourn more than a million, right? Millions of injuries, blah, blah, blah, complaining about U.S. policy. And so CBS writes on it. And CBS titles of Michigan Democrat, Abdul El-Said deleted tweets on September 11th attacks, invite scrutiny of past remarks. You better believe they do.

I mean, for goodness sakes, how can you tweet stuff like that? here we are on the 25th anniversary of 9-11 you don't think that people are going to go back and say gee you know maybe you shouldn't be the guy for the u.s senate maybe this party has lost its way well CBS is actually for once reporting the news the straight news yes that's going to invite just a little bit of scrutiny they're actually quite careful if you ask me with that headline and yet people freaked out of course leading the charge the guy that hates america what an insane headline has on piker writes this is why ellison bought, oh, he doesn't even have any decent grammar.

It would have been Ellison's without the apostrophe, Mr. Piker, bought CBS and put Barry Weiss in charge. Okay, so that's a very sort of, like, veiled hint at his own anti-Semitism, of which he's, you know, on record. Like, this is not me making it up. Go, don't watch any of his things. But trust me, I've watched enough to be able to tell you with certainty the guy's very anti-Semitic.

Oh, and don't take my word for it. You can take Carvels. James Garville went and watched a little bit too. I'm going to show you that. He's like, anyway, here's that. So after Hassan Piker, you get the runner up for the title of Most Anti-Semitic podcaster. And that would be, I guess, Maidi Hassan. And Mr. Hassan now puts us at CBS, CBS News, Barry Weiss. Do you think it's super, do you think it's super offensive and disgusting? And Islamophobic, oh, now suddenly it's Islamophobic to do a tweet about the potential first ever Muslim Democrat Senator, which begins by referencing 9-11.

So you see where they go. They say this is no-go. If you say this, you are somehow Islamophobic. You are racist. You are this, that, and the other. You can't criticize them. This is like straight up, straight out of the Ilhan Omar playbook if I ever saw one. Oh, you Islamophob. How dare you criticize my absolutely heinous, horrendous tweet about 9-11. How dare you? On the 25th anniversary of 9-11. I mean, what kind of idiot politician is he if he didn't see that one coming? Buddy boy, El-Said, you're not that smart. Well, you never did make it to be a practicing doctor now, did you? Anyway, Despicable, Tim Mueller writes, oh, he's an MSNBC. They call it Ms. Now. But Timmy Miller is an MSNBC person, I guess. I had to look that up. I've actually

never heard of him. Despicable anti-Muslim woke right garbage from the House CBS account. You see? Did they all get paid to do this? I'm kind of wondering at this point. Here is Yasamine and sorry. And she's a representative from Arizona who wrote what an insane, blatantly racist headline. Unreal. You know what's unreal? That you guys are actually trying to defend this crapple. That's what's unreal. And then this is the guy who's, I guess, run in broadcast or whatever they have video over at Vox, right? The current state of institutional media legit bums me out. Oh, hmm. We've burned through so much credibility in recent years.

Oh, you have, yes. And our information ecosystem is worse for it. So he doesn't like what CBS is putting out either. I mean, I'm sorry. This is one where I get handed to CBS. They're doing the right thing and they're pointing out the obvious. It's very, very obvious. on the 25th anniversary of 9-11 when Abdul el-said is hanging around and going out with

Hassan piker, the guy who hates America and thinks we deserve 9-11, that, you know, you might be asking some of these questions. So I'll tell you guys this, how dare you? How dare you go after CBS or anybody? Anybody that asks the rightful questions, which is, why would you tweet something like that? Why would you put something out like that? We ought to know. But I'll tell you, this guy's campaign is imploding in real time.

And now he's looking at things. Abdul-Said knows that he's got a real problem with a lot of people, including Jewish Democrats, in the state of Michigan. They don't like them. Black Americans don't like him either. You know, the whole socialism thing. But he's really got to be able to cross the finish line in these synagogues. And you see, there's shutting the door in his phone.

face, rightly. So he is now going out and looking for some help. Don't forget, the reason they're shutting the door in his face is because this one, his buddy. Abdul al-Said is my guy, right? He's a rose guy. Okay, he's your guy. He's your guy. And you're his guy. And that little symbiotic relationship with you little besties is not actually going well for the rest of the state or for Democrats in general. In fact, you know what could actually happen, and this is why Debbie Zingle and some of the other Democrats in the state of Michigan are so worried what could actually happen is you might see a ground shift. You might actually see blue turning red because all of those people in Michigan that are normal people,

they're not going to want this. They really won't. I mean, they don't want an anti-Semitic America hater. Is it too much to ask for you guys to find people that actually love this country out there in Michigan? Because yesterday, I said, okay, maybe I'm being unfair. And I looked up with this Hassan's back, whoa, I don't know if he's a anti-Semite, but man, he said some stuff that's pretty, you're single Jewish people out. Right. Like, crazy. And if you go to the ADL or any site, you don't have to be the ADL. So I find this guy to be really, really troubling. And I find that, you know, Elsaid has said that he doesn't agree with the things that

Hassan Fiker said. I think he'd do himself some good if he made very clear the specific things that Hoscombeckin said that he disagree with because I've got to tell you, that doesn't make me really, really uncomfortable. And me too. Me too. I mean, when we're actually agreeing on something, you know, it's kind of a moment, right? Carvel's like, this guy's bad news.

He just kind of, like me, he was just like, oh, wait, who's this Hassan Piker? Hassan Piker, who is it? And then he starts paying attention. And then like a couple days later, I mean, that was like, you know, that was like a week and a half ago. And then a few days ago, he comes out and just flat out says it. You talk about the larger Democratic Party post the election in Michigan going for. I am not going to be in the same party with a son,

I can tell you that right now. If he becomes a force in a Democratic Party, I'm out of here. You know, I don't think he will. I hope he doesn't. But I applaud your Hutzpah there, Mr. Carville. I really do, because you shouldn't be in the same party with him. You really shouldn't. I mean, I think you guys have gotten taken over and shown damn fault.

but hey, Free Beacon, putting this one out, El-Said's campaign is seeking a Jewish liaison for damage control. And then they have a whole bunch of promising candidates. And actually, it's a really funny article. They go through them. I think they threw Elizabeth Warren in there for good measure because, you know, she's willing to adopt any identity. I mean, most everybody was Jewish, right? And then they get to Elizabeth Warren and they're like, well, you know, there was the Pocahontas thing. So who's to say?

She might be willing to go any which way. Anyway, the woman right now that's trying to do the damage control is not doing a very good job. This is the Michigan Attorney General. Her name is Dana Nessel. And Dana Nessel is a lawyer. She is Jewish by background. She went to University of Michigan in some little law school there in Michigan, and now she's been in politics her whole career.

And she decided to pay a visit to a big synagogue. And she decided to tell all the Jews in the synagogue that they just need to put their own needs on the back burner, right? And they need to put the needs of the world ahead of their own wait for it. Survival. Survival. Okay, like you're talking to a group of people who were nearly wiped out in the Holocaust. And she says, who cares about your own survival? And this is kind of unthinkable, and this perhaps really shows you exactly why Jewish Americans are increasingly turning and becoming Republican and why I anticipate that many of them in Michigan will switch. Democrat AG urges Jewish voters to put humanity above safety and security of own people.

The remarks underscore deepening Democrat tensions over Israel and the crucial battleground in Michigan fox out with that story today. let me show you this was from Jewish insider. They were just stunned. Michigan AG calls on Jews to put their own safety aside. And she starts quoting Queen Esther, who risked her life, actually to save Jews, that's kind of an important footnote, because she's trying to say, you know, you need to hold yourself to a standard like Queen Esther. But again, um, She didn't put Jewish safety aside for some kind of greater good. I digress.

Here it is the quote. It's perhaps up to us to follow in her path, referring to Queen Esther, and sacrifice the comfort, safety, and security, and even the very future of our own people in exchange for the opportunity to save the rest of humanity. Woo! Lady! My gosh! Stop her now, right?

You know, I'm telling you. Anybody who thinks like this deserves the Mandamese and the Abdul-Said's and the Rashida Talibs and the Ilhan Omar's of the world. You think like that. Oh, ho. I hope people are smart enough to see through this BS. Actually, they are because I think she's basically fired

as the liaison effective today. What good she goes in, she's just digging in further, is defending the historic homeland of our ancestors and demanding the candidates acknowledge its rights to exist. If the planet upon which it rests is no longer inhabitable. We're going to go back to climate change and green energy, I see, as a reason to elect. The guy whose buddies with Hassan Piker who thinks that you, Ms. Dana Nezell, deserve to die. I'm sorry. You may think that that's explosive commentary. I'm not going to show you some of his commentary. I'm not going to show you some of his

commentary because the things that he has said, I mean, you can look it up on X. It's there. It's really bad. Okay. So he thinks a lot of people don't have a right to exist. He wants to kill anybody who makes money. I mean, this is, I mean, this is just really atrocious. So this is that lady, Dana. So she's not really delivering for them. They're trying to recover from these bad 9-11 tweets and they got Ms. Dana Nessel out there saying, forget about yourself. Forget about your community. Forget about the fact that we all went through World War II and nearly saw our entire, you know,

our entire ethnicity just wiped out in a total genocide. Forget about all that because, you know, the planet, it keeps getting hotter and hotter and hotter, and the only guy is going to be able to fix that is Abdul al-Said. Michigan is so cooked. So cooked. Oh, boy, if you haven't subscribed, make sure that you do. It's important.

Subscribe to the show. For me, make a comment. I read them all. Iranian elites are freaking out. Good. Okay? Good, good, good, good, good. They are fleeing Iran in real time.

Meanwhile, we just got this report in. Apparently, new U.S. missiles have appeared to have left a wide path of death and destruction. In an Iranian city, this is according to some report. I know that we did get word that there were 21 people killed in the, the strike just yesterday. It's unfortunate. Certainly unfortunate. Iran is firing drones and missiles in response to U.S. strikes. Iranian semi-official media says this is according to AP. This is an Associated Press report. They're calling it semi-official media. I'm not exactly sure what that is, but I can tell you this. Iranians are fleeing. Iranians want out, out, out, out, out. They are fleeing

capital. Capital is going all over the world right now. And guess what, Besson's there, ready to catch every single last dime of it. Yeah, it's getting serious. Take a look at this total economic collapse there in Iran right now with vegetable oil up nearly 400 percent, eggs up, 300 percent, chicken up nearly 200 percent, red meat up about 150 percent. Nobody has any money. You know, if you go to the grocery store shelves, what do you see? Empty stores, and in many cases, empty shells. This is some kind of store there in Iran. And, you know, we're going to, We don't get a ton of video that comes out of Iran because, obviously, it's highly controlled. But I wanted to show you that.

I mean, especially when you look at nobody being in the stores, actually, you know, it looks like they get some good stock on some of those things, don't they? Right? Better than probably Venezuela. But take a look here. So this is a protest from today, and this is very brave of these people because they start shouting and they are upset because of inflation, because of gas prices, because of food costs. And they've hit the breaking point.

And believe me, when I say breaking point, it's a breaking point. Because to protest anything there in Iran is extraordinarily dangerous. You know, but they're dealing with a lot of things that they shouldn't have to deal with, frankly, if they had a decent leadership. I mean, decent leadership, good luck. You get the IRGC taking everything. They control everything. They control that economy.

We learned back as all of this first broke out, right? Back in January that the Ayatollah's son, there he is, he's now the Ayatollah, has a $120 million apartment there in Billionaire's Row in London. Why? Because the corrupt people have all the money. Well, Bessent is rooting it out. Dollar by dollar by dollar. Here he is with my former co-host back at CNBC, the great Larry Cudlow.

Listen. Well, that's what happened. That's what happened to this bank in Dubai, and it could be entities. It could be airline leasing companies, which we'll be looking at. It could be anyone who does business with the IRGC. We are tracking down the IRGC's assets, and I will say it on Worldwide TV, just so you know, we know the aware of the British Virgin Islands, your accounts are, at these trust companies, We know the $100 million houses you have around the world, and we are going to freeze those.

We are going to, our partners, we are going to close all of that down. So we are going to go after the regime's legitimate assets that they have stolen from the Iranian people, and those can go back to the Iranian people, or they can go to the victims of terror, like the families of the soldiers who are on the USS Cole, or in the Lebanese barracks. Well, he's following the money. And if we take a look at the money, we see that a lot of it has been leaving. They are just fleeing Iran with those dollars. So new data from the Iran Central Bank, as much as you can trust, Iran Central Bank, shows that despite a record surplus of nearly $27 billion in trade from 2025, oh, we know who some of those countries are. And by the way, we're going right down the list and we're checking it twice.

You're not going to be able to trade with Iran anymore. The country experienced a capital account deficit of roughly the same magnitude. So in other words, $27 billion came in and $27 billion went out. Why? Because they knew they had to get their money out of the country as fast as they could. The figure represents a four-and-a-half-fold increase compared with 2020 and highlights a growing structural problem within the Iranian economy. You think? I mean, the IRGC can't get that stuff fast enough. They're taking every dollar they earn. This is according to the Middle East Forum.

this is not, this is not good. So where's it go? Right. That's what Besson's tracking right now, and he knows where it's going. You know, some people thought maybe it was going to Turkey, because historically, there had been a lot of purchasing of residential properties in Turkey, but that peaked around 2020. Apparently they're not buying big in Turkey anymore. Turkey, who is an ally, right, but they also do trade with Iran. We're cutting that one off too. So Turkey isn't quite seeing the real estate boom from them, so where are they putting it? That's you got to ask yourself. Besson says there's a lot of places.

Banks, they just sanctioned a bank out of UAE, even though UAE's a friend, that bank is getting sanctioned. Any of those little funds down in the BVI, watch out. Back to Besson. We'll be looking at. It could be anyone who does business

with the IRGC. We are tracking down the IRGC's assets. And I will say it on Worldwide TV, just so you know, we know the aware of the British Virgin Islands, your accounts are at these trust companies, we know the $100 million houses you have around the world, and we are going to freeze those.

We are going to, our partners, we are going to close all of that down. So we are going to go after the regime's illegitimate assets that they have stolen from the Iranian people, and those can go back to the Iranian people, or they can go to the victims of terror, like the families of the soldiers who are on the USS Cole, We're in the Lebanese barracks, but we will stop this regime.

We're going to stop them, he says. We are going to stop them. So here's the list. Here we go. UAE, they knocked that one out. China's going to be a little tougher. Okay, full disclosure. He was asked about China, and what he said about China was, look,

China doesn't want them to have a nuclear weapon either. China has gotten historically in the past a lot of energy from them, and China doesn't want them to have a nuclear weapon. I don't think they're willing to move in and say, hey China, we're going to sanction you if you keep on trading with Iran just yet. It could get to that, but we're not there yet. They're trying to use a little bit more diplomacy and a little bit more sub-affair on that front. Iran, forget about it.

You're not going to be trading with them anymore. Pakistan, forget about Pakistan. Pakistan that's looking for a $10 billion credit facility from us, right? They want to be able to get loans from us, and yet they want to expand trade. They don't even want it to be. What did they do last year? They did about $3 billion. They're trying to get $10 billion in trade.

I'm like, wait a second. You guys want $10 billion in a credit facility from us, and you're saying you expect an answer soon. Simultaneously, you want to increase your trade to $10 billion with Iran, that's not going to fly. And hey, India, forget about it. I mean, you guys, like, this game is over, all right? It is so freaking over. You know what else is over? The straight of her moose is over because we're not even going to need it in a couple years.

What have I been telling you? We're building pipelines as it speaks. In a couple of years, those pipelines are going to be ready to go. We don't need the Strait of Hormuz. We don't need Iran. They know they're on their last legs as a result. Back to Besson. We could see the Iranians are trying to use the Strait of Hormuz as a choke point.

It's not a choke point for the U.S., but it is a choke point for many other countries. But that will be bypassed in two years. In two years, the Strait of Hermuz will be like a worthless piece of water that the oil will be going on. You know, we all know, a worthless piece of. And I'm like, I had another word in my head, but okay, Mr. Besson, we'll go with water. The oil will be going on pipelines across land. But we've seen we have semiconductors as critical minerals. It is...

In other words, they have about a two-year window, and so they're trying to exercise that as much as they can. I want to point out, everybody's been freaking out about bond yields. What happened to bond yields today? They came down. I'll tell you, you know. Calm down, everybody. It's going to be okay. I'm going to remind you again.

It's going to be okay. Go check out my 76 research.com. If you're interested in investing, we've got a lot of good ideas there for you, three different portfolios, eight to ten names in each one of them. This is my company that I own with my very good friend, Rob Horton, who was a fund manager on Wall Street for many, many years, an outstanding stock picker. So good stuff in all of those. Okay, wokeism striking back.

big time, Billy Eilish. She's getting hit hard by this one. Do you guys know her? She's kind of popular with the kids. They like a lot of her songs. Well, Billy Elish, back in February, okay? So go back to the Grammys in February. She was out there complaining about being on stolen land back in February and how that the land, you know, didn't belong to us. In fact, let me get to her example. Let me get to her exact quote. Elon was laughing about it. He's like, she's such a hypocrite. Anyway, here is the exact quote from Billy Elish, total double standard at the Emmys in February. It's relevant because she's getting hit with the exact same thing all over again. At some point, she's going to have to give something up. Quote, as grateful as I feel, I honestly don't feel like I need to say anything, but that no one is

illegal on stolen land. All right. So, of course, everybody's like, well, when are you going to give up that mansion of yours? Because you know you're living. on stolen land, for goodness sakes. You live right here in California with all of us. So it was quite a rant. The New York Post covered it. Elon Musk tweeted out after. He was making fun of her. You had my friend Brandem Tatum, he was quoted in the New York Post because he said, you know, she's out there chilling in her Hollywood Hills fortress that arm guards in a mode of privilege. If the land so stolen says, hand over those keys to the nearest tribe or migrant family. Da-an-da. That's exactly what you need to do. I mean, I don't get these people.

It's stolen, it's stolen, it's stolen. So hand it over for goodness, six. What are you doing sitting on it all day long? Well, you know, it's not just stolen land. I mean, she just hates billionaires as well. I mean, she's probably worth a lot of money. I'm going to go out on a limb. I mean, unless she's really, really ditsy and doesn't know how to, you know, manage her situation at all,

which is entirely possible. I mean, certainly entirely possible. She really seems to hate billionaires. She was invited to the Wall Street Journal's 25 Innovator Awards. I guarantee you they paid her a lot of money. I'm going to go and say maybe 100 grand, maybe 250 grand. I don't know what she charges, but I guarantee you she got paid a lot of money to go and deliver these awards at the Wall Street Journal Innovator Awards.

And she went on and on about how she hates wealth. And she said to people, if you're a billionaire, why are you a billionaire? no hate, but give your money away, shorties. Hmm. Okay, well, why don't you give your money away? I mean, if you hate it so much, why'd you take a fee to go and speak at the Wall Street Journal event? Just asking.

I mean, you got, you got obviously quite a pad there with all your security and stuff, Ms. Eilish, you know, why don't you give a little bit more? As far as I can tell, I don't think she's really into the giving thing. I mean, I think she's kind of into the taking thing. She has a lot, you know, more than a lot of people. And her brother just got married. And this has landed them in a whole new bit of trouble.

Because, you see, the Native Americans would like their land back. This whole thing came up again. She was very happy to be at a wedding in Montecito with her brother, Phineas, who married his longtime girlfriend. and now the headlines are reporting that she's facing, of course, renewed criticism after her brother's very lavish Montecito wedding. And social media users are saying, hey, you know, what about that stolen land? What about that stolen land?

The wedding happened over the weekend. It's on stolen land. It's in Montecito, which is apparently some area that originally belonged to Native Americans and they would like it back. So Billy, like, here we are. Waiting. waiting, wait, and the media didn't report on this, but I'll tell you, Twitter had a field day. Twitter had a field day. I mean, there was that one little article in Yahoo that got picked up,

but they said hypocrisy much. She lectures everybody about stolen land, then host a lavish wedding on that exact same land. Words do not equal actions. And then somebody else writes, or did they have it in America? Of all the tone deaf hypocrites in Hollywood, Billy Eilish, might be the worst. Watch this anti-capitalism sell more sweatshop junk to her fans tomorrow too. You see, she actually just debuted a new perfume. And a lot of them are reacting to that as well. Because for somebody who hates capitalism so much, for somebody who says, give away your money, why are you a billionaire? People want to know. Why is she trying to sell this little chinty perfume thing that probably stinks to a lot of, you know, young American girls. Why?

Because it makes her money. Amazing how that works. Okay, here's someone else saying, same girl that billioners, this billionaire shouldn't even exist. She's pushing pretty close to having quarter of a billion dollars. I don't know how much she has, but, you know, it's not nothing. She should publicly apologize to the Native Americans and give a land acknowledgement. I like that. I like that. I like that. one. What do you guys think she should? Well, how do we fix this for Billy? Any ideas? Another cosplay struggle artist who wants to set rules for others and yet benefit on the back end of the things that she protests against. Nobody should take these people seriously or seek their advice or opinion.

They don't have the qualifications or moral fiber to be honest. Yeah, you're going to say that again. Again, she's hawk and perfume. She's getting paid to go show up and give awards at the Wall Street Journal innovator award event and then just turns around and socks it to the whole crowd. But, you know, this is a theme among the woke elites. They're always trying to say, we're on stolen land, we're on stolen lamb, we're on stolen land, for goodness sakes, would you have people just give it all back then? Here's the Canadians. They open every single darn event with this nonsense. Before we begin, I would like to acknowledge that we are gathered today on the traditional and unseeded territory of the Algonquin Anishna of the people.

Told you. We recognize and honor the enduring presence, cultures, and contributions of the indigenous peoples, and we are grateful to be able to gather on this territory today. So, today, we are reunite for Fáler Poyce. Oh my goodness. I told you, I told you. And by the way, this was like, apparently, this was when they were going to have a press conference about tariffs. Just like, someone said to me, gosh, could it just be that easy for Israel?

You know, just tell the Palestinians, I'm sorry, we're here. We're on stolen land, and that's the end of it. I mean, honestly, it's just getting a little ridiculous. If you people are all there on stolen land, like Billy Eilish, where she lives or her brother had his wedding or the Canadians, then just give it back. Enough is enough is enough is enough. But they're all commies. they want to, you know, have their cake and eat it too.

They want to say one thing and do another. They want one set of rules for themselves and a whole other set for everybody else. And that's why Donald Trump predicts midterms are going to look pretty good. I think we're going to do very well because we have communists. We have a party that's been infiltrated by bad thought, by bad policy. I used to talk about socialism, but this isn't socialism. This is largely communism. I look at the people.

You can say that again. It's communism. And it's been promoted by the likes of Hollywood, by the media. And by, I would argue, some bad actors that do not have America's interest at heart. Some bad actors worldwide that don't have America's interest at heart. Whether it be Democrat Socialist America getting backing from the likes of Neville Singman out of China, and we know where his money comes from, the CCP, whether it be the Iranians that are pushing this. I mean, any of these groups that want to do us harm, it makes all the sense in the

world. And you get these candidates in there who seem to be working more for the other side than for us. I mean, you have only to tell me that the mayor of New York City, while we're at war with Iran, is trying to set up a meeting with Iran. What is that about? Again, who are they working for. Who are they loyal to? There is a kind of attitude, a sentiment, a culture that has crept in right under our eyes. Just go to any local school in America right now. You'll see, take a look at the syllabus. They are teaching this. They are teaching this. And it's dangerous. It's dangerous for our future. But that's why they're doing it because they're trying to undermine. And people are too darn stupid. They're all like that lady I told you about earlier who said, you know,

we should give up our own survival for the betterment of the planet. Please, enough. Or you guys, you know, just self-interested players, like this jelly roll guy. Do you know who jelly roll is? Jelly roll, he's a country music artist. He's had a few, a couple of hit tunes, and he seemed like he was really conservative until, what do you know? Turns out he's not. Turns out he went on to Jimmy Kimmel's show, he hosted a week, and he said some really crude things like, I've lost an entire Donald Trump. He's talking about his weight based on his approval ratings. It seems like most of the country wants to do the same thing from one fat pig to another. Believe me, it's better when you can see your full body down there.

He was a little bit more crude than that. You know, as they called it, the penis joke, the fat joke. Jimmy Kimmel Live turned into a total train wreck and he's reading on these stupid jokes, calling the president a fat pig. and, you know, Americans didn't really like it, and his base really didn't like. The only person that seemed to like it, surprise, surprise, was Rosie O'Donnell, who had been hosting the show earlier in the week. And Rosie O'Donnell was like, this is great, Rosie, like, you know, she just, heck, you know, she were straight. She might actually be interested in the guy, and they

got a little jelly going on, both of them, right? Simultaneously. I mean, it's really sort of pathetic. Yeah, truly pathetic. But anyway, Rosie was really happy. She thought that this was just great, of course. And I'm not surprised. I mean, somebody who truly hates the president, of course she was happy with what he had to say. She loves jelly roll. In fact, let me get you her comments because she came right out and said how much she enjoyed all of this. Here we go. Rosie loves jelly. You better believe she loves a little bit of jelly. I love this jelly roll guy. Shout out to you.

Back at you. You are killing this, mister. I am going to go have a jelly donut in your honor. I'm sure she did. You should probably have like ten of them. This is the rather hate-filled lady that we all know, right? Unbelievable. So she's the only one who liked this.

The fans didn't like this so much. In fact, he is. is just bleeding followers. He is hemorrhaging followers. He actually pointed this out on the show as well. He said, I don't know what happened. Well, you don't know what happened. I'll tell you what happened. You presented yourself as one thing, and it turned out that's not actually what you were. You weren't a conservative like you told everyone you were. What was that about? Why did you do that? Well, John Rich, wonderful country music artist, wonderful, wonderful guy. One of my very good friends is close with him and can't say enough good stuff about him and just who he is as a person.

I want to share with you an excerpt from Benny Johnson's interview with John Rich that he did maybe yesterday and it kind of helps crystallize all of this. Okay, John Rich really nails it. The country music audience from the beginning of country music, their main attraction to any given artist is authenticity. It's that the artist is speaking of the truth that they're not just a singer, they're an actual artist. There's a difference between singers and artists. Singers kind of chase the tale of culture. They chase the tale of the industry,

whatever's popular. That's what they're going to sing. Artist, on the other hand, they say what they mean and mean what they say, whether it's popular at the time or not. Johnny Cash is a great example. Merle Haggard is a great example. Loretta Lynn. Dolly Parton is a great example. And so the audience puts a real value on truth telling in country music. And so the jelly roll situation is interesting to me because he presented himself, and I've been around him a long time, presented his story, you know, had a horrible past, was incarcerated for a long time,

turned his life around, came out into country music, really was a testimonial to second chances in America, that America gave him the opportunity to turn his life around, life liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And a Republican governor in Tennessee pardoned him. And then, of course, he was, you know, complimentary about the president. It doesn't mean you have to like everything the president does or says or any politician does or says. Lord knows I don't.

However, when you come in and make statements like he did over the past week, he knows how this works, okay? He knows who the audience is. And so I have to think he really believes every single word he said or he wouldn't have said it because you know when you make statements that are that hardcore and to a large extent counteractive to the presentation you've been making, you do understand and country music that half or more of your audience may disown you. They may turn their back on you.

They may stop listening to you. They may turn you off, but you make the statement anyway. Yeah, because you should be true to your audience and true to yourself. I mean, he's right. I think it's a very insightful thing that he said, and he's right. There's a difference between being a pop singer, right, and singing somebody else's tunes and being a country artist, which is such a, you know, the story is everything.

Think about the story in country music. so critical, it's so important. And so if the story is everything, then you are kind of, as the person who is telling that story, you are everything, and you need to be trusted. And Jellyroll had been trusted. And now everybody's looking up and they're saying, well, who the heck are you? We thought you were one thing, and now you're another. And I'm wondering if he just doesn't care about country anymore. Like maybe he just, he's like done with it. And he's looking for a new play and for a new gig. and he's like, I'm going to be pop. And if I'm going to be pop, well, you don't have to have a soul, I guess, is pop.

You don't have to be true to yourself. You can be one way, one day, one way the next. And there's no accountability there. The fans do not hold you accountable. Heck, you're not even singing your own music as a pop star. So I thought it was interesting. Let me play you one more clip. My thanks to Benny for allowing us to use this material and my thanks to John as well.

But let me play you one more clip because the industry, has gotten so liberal. And John Rich knew that he took a lot of hits because he wasn't willing to kowtow to them. Like, what was that woman's name? Oh, you guys didn't even know her. She sang that song, oh, something about Rich. I'm going to find it.

I'm going to find a lot of you had never even heard of her. And she bowed out of country. And it was like, well, yeah, he didn't really know you anyway. But anyway, he might be doing a similar thing if you think about it, right? Like he might be going just into a whole new direction. That's all I can think of. Like, what the heck happened? You know, I realize John thinks that he may have thought this all along.

I don't know. Here's the industry take. The entire music industry is liberal. They're all liberal. A vast majority of country radio is run by conglomerates that are also operated by leftists. And so I knew if I come out swinging and really say what I think, I'm probably going to lose country radio. I'm probably going to lose a record deal.

I'm probably going to not be invited to the award shows anymore. Yeah. In other words, they cut you off. And that's exactly what happened with him. He experienced a total, like, silencing of his career because he was too conservative. And so when you look at what just transpired with jelly roll and all this stupid jokes and getting out there on Jimmy Kimmel,

and, you know, ABC's like, woo-hoo, woo-hoo! We got a conservative to host Jimmy Kimmel. and then they fed him a bunch of jokes. That's the other idea. You know, maybe it was the wifey wife, right, who's the executive producer of Jimmy Kimmel. She's the wife and executive producer of the show. No church and state there.

Anyway, so she wrote all the jokes, maybe had them all lined up, and then he went and delivered him. So he really just is a pop star, singing somebody else's tunes. I wouldn't trust him after this. I think he's shown, you know, perhaps, just his true colors, not in that maybe he feels that way, maybe he doesn't, maybe he doesn't have

any opinion about any politics whatsoever, and he was just lying the whole darn time. And now he sees a better looking paycheck on that side of the aisle, and so he's crossing. That would be my guess. With one jelly roll, glad I never got too attached to him anyway. I'll tell you, things are changing, though. Things are changing fast. Donald Trump has taken over Hollywood. Donald Trump came out with a brilliant idea. well, in fairness, it was actually John Voitz, and he admits that he and John Voitz sat down yesterday, and they hatched up a plan to get more American film business being filmed in America.

Imagine that, because it's all going to Canada and other places. And so Hollywood loves this deal, which should make you nervous, right? Well, you know, let's see. Let me explain what it is. First of all, the president said last night, I just had a great, and very interesting meeting with my Hollywood ambassador, fantastic men who loves our country, John Voight, and he feels strongly about the motion picture and television industry.

He hates what's happened to it. It is being dissipated in its entirety. It is moved to Canada and other countries. With very little work being done anymore in the United States, Hollywood is a complete and total disaster. Despite the name, it is getting very little work. And that's true. Like there's very little work in Hollywood these days.

Very, very little work. goes on to say John and many others in the industry are suggesting we do federal tax incentives in order to make our movie and television production business great again, perhaps greater than ever before. Congress should prove immediately a federal production incentive to create entertainment jobs in America. It can be done quickly, accurately, efficiently, and importantly will benefit all of America. He also kind of got into the potential for some tariffs if needed as well. Anyway, I saw this last night, and I was like, wow, okay, I think he's looking to take over Hollywood because, you know, if you control the culture, you control a lot.

And let's look at who has controlled the culture for so long. I don't like the idea of giving Hollywood a single dime, but I do like the idea of conservatives having a little bit more say there in Hollywood because you look at. at what's happened over the years and anybody conservative gets thrown out and you have to stand up there, you know, like a pinup girl. That's what, what's his face? George Clooney over in Lake Como is some kind of pinup girl for the Democrat Party. And Kamala, Kamala this, Kamala that, Kamala this, Kamala this, Kamala that. Oh, and then he's the one who got Joe Biden, right, forced out at the 11th hour. I'll tell you, if you could actually stabilize the industry and

bring a little bit more conservative thought, just make it equal, for goodness sakes. That could go a long way towards preserving America and preserving the integrity of our culture. And what I found fascinating, okay, fascinating was immediately, immediately last night, everybody came out in Hollywood saying, we love this. I mean, I'm like, you guys don't like anything, Trump, anything. And you don't like John Boye either. Angelina Jolie's father, I mean, I don't think she likes him either. But, you know, she's been corrupted by all the wokeism. And so you've got the Motion Picture Association, the CEO, Charles Rifkin, saying, hey, this is great. It's a landmark step.

He said, we applaud Trump's support, and we will work with the White House and Congress to enact it. You have the Directors Guild of America, the National Executive Director, saying this is critical and they look forward to this bipartisan bill. That was a big thing from Donald Trump, too. He said, we need to make this bipartisan, the IATSE, which said it was incredible. courage to see growing support for a policy that the union has championed for years and years and years. So Trump's taking over Hollywood. He and John Voigt are coming to, you know what else is kind of fascinating to me, guys? It's really fascinating that not one single actor or actress in all of Hollywood said, boo, like nothing. It was crickets. And I kept looking. And right before I

came to air today, I looked again, and I even did a grok search, and I'm like, is anybody in Hollywood opposing this? Because, you know, wouldn't you expect all the crazy libs out in Hollywood? George Clooney would be like, blah, br-br-br-br-vro. Nope. Zip, zero. Nada. So they're going to take his help. Amazing. It shows you all fairs and love and war and business, right? Except for Swalwell. Poor Eric. Swahua. Oh, my goodness. We thought it was bad yesterday. Today, new video came out. Ooh, this is not good. This is video of him.

August 15th at the San Francisco International Airport. Take a look-see at this. He's the guy that they kind of highlighted here, you know, because you wouldn't really recognize him. Would you recognize? He's got the hat on. He's got the hoodie on. He's got like some rock star guitarist on his shirt.

I'm like, Eric, is that you? Oh, yeah, it's him. And the FBI was busting him. The FBI was bringing him in. and this video is just going wild. Everybody's talking about this video. Everybody's looking at this video. You know, at first when I saw this video,

I actually thought that the guy who was the agent was Swalwell. Because, you know, Swalwas got that nice little haircut and everything. And, you know, I didn't expect him to look so disheveled as he does. But, yeah, he's looking pretty disheveled. So you're like, what is going on with Eric Swallow? Well, you know what's going on? He's actually in a whole lot of trouble. It came out back in.

what was it August? Forgive me not August. It was back in April that they learned that he had had some, oh, how shall we say, indiscretions. And they were now, they went on to investigate him for it. He had to resign from his position there as a, you know, he was trying to become the next governor of California and take over for Gavin Newsom. And so now he's no longer in that race. And instead, Eric Swalwell, who was once living high and mighty, hanging out with, Fang Fang, he is now getting picked up by the feds there. So it's really, it was April of this year. Multiple women came out and accused him of assault and misconduct. And so now there's all these current investigations. These investigations, they're not a good look. They're not a good

look. We know that he was willing, I guess, how do I say this? Well, let me just let the report speak for itself. Okay, so this is Fang Fang. You know about Fang Fang. They called this Operation Freshman 15, because apparently he would get these young women to come and work for him, but it would be sort of quid pro quo. They would have given some kind of donation

or a family member or somebody close to them would get a donation. Well, it turns out like she was trying to place Chinese spies in his office. So the freshman 15 were the additional Chinese spies and the FBI had this evidence. And, you know, we talked a little bit about it yesterday. I was like, what was wrong with the Democrat Party? Like, why was the Democrat Party so obsessed with things like Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia. That's all we heard, right? Russia, Russia, Russia.

And the whole time, and this guy, by the way, was on the committee. Don't forget. He was on the committee that was investigating Russia, Russia, Russia. And yet we knew and Democrats knew at the time that he was bad news. and they had the goods on him. They had the goods, you know, and, you know, he's, I guess, paying the price big time for these goods now, or at least will be. I mean, we'll see what comes of this.

They have a bad tendency to protect their own. But, you know, this new SFO footage, I want to point out, this just dropped, like within the last day or so. He's getting off that plane at the San Francisco International Airport. He's dressed very casually. They took away his phone. They took away his computer. he's pulled aside there by a group of agents and they walk them through the terminal and they take all these electronics away. Why are they taking these electronics away? Because again, he's part of this

investigation and this federal probe as a result of all these women that have come forward. So this is not looking good for Mr. Swallow, but it's sort of amazing because again, the Dems knew about the Swalwell stuff and the Fang Fang stuff. And they knew, and yet, they put them on the House Intel Committee anyway. And they put them on and he became buddies with Adam Schiff. And Adam Schiff, as recently as February, before everything blew up in April and the investigation was announced, Adam Schiff was like willing to go to bat for him, as we see right here. As I said, if you've just joined or you came in late, Senator Adam Schiff, a friend, a partner, endorsing our campaign. Well, first of all, let me say how proud I am to support.

you, Eric. And, you know, before you got to the race, it was fully my attention to probably stay out of the race. A lot of friends are running. A lot of very, you know, capable people are in this field who, you know, I have great respect for. But there are a couple things that compelled me. One is that when you got on the race, here was somebody that I'd worked with for over a decade, who I had seen stand up to Donald Trump and stand up to all his mega allies, no matter what they threw at you, Eric. And they're attacking you again now. because they fear that you'll be successful in this race, and they don't want a powerful person in the governor's office,

once again, to stand up to this president. We'll get through this. We're better than he has. And you often like to quote our colleague, Elijah Cummings, the late Elijah Cummings, who would say, we are better than this. And that's just how I see our state, and that's how I see our country. Yeah, I completely agree with you.

During the first impeachment trial, and you did such a magnificent job in the state, second one, I made an appeal to my fellow senators that we could not leave a man like this in power. First of all, we had proven him guilty of what he was charged with, but this was somebody who couldn't tell the truth. He was just incapable of telling the truth. He did not know right from wrong, and he was fundamentally indecent.

And it wasn't that the senators should remove him because he was indecent, and he was indecent, and he couldn't tell right from wrong and he couldn't tell the truth. And those things didn't matter all to him. But because they mattered to my colleagues, I appealed to them that he is not who you are. Well, sadly, there are plenty of them who I guess he is who they are. Oh, my gosh. We're so great.

Donald Trump is so bad. We're so righteous. We never lie. I mean, we just take up with spies and we, we, we allegedly hurt women, right? Like, we're, we got it going on. I guess I shouldn't say the we with Schiff. They don't have that on Schiff. They have the funny accounting thing. Those allegations have come out regarding Adam Schiff. But Swalwell is a mess. I mean just a total mess. And, you know, he said something rather telling, foreshadowing perhaps his own future

when not too long ago, he promised that it would all come out. And he said the new slogan for the party should be, it'll all come out. Can't make it up. I have suggested to our leadership and it's been well to see that we need to have a campaign called, we won't forget it, or it'll all come out. And it all will come out. It's all coming out, okay? So we're learning everything about what was going down with Fang Fang. said, you know, we just didn't have the resources to double check with our financial team to make

sure that there was no funny business going on. And there was lots of funny business going on. And we knew that she was a spy for China. And at some point, I guess we chose not to prosecute her for whatever reason. And she got on a plane back to China as fast as she could. And for whatever reason, we decided that he was innocent of any of the, like, you know, he just got played because he is a fool who got played. We don't need fools that are getting played. Thank you very much in the House of Representatives or in the Senate or anywhere near government. But they are a bunch of fools that keep getting played. And, you know, look, there's more where that came from. I mean, you think about this. The media, they were fools that got played. You think about the Russia,

Russia, Russia hoax that was nonstop. I mean, you think about all the hoaxes that we've had. Oh, that Hunter Biden laptop. That's not real. Oh, no, you know, coronavirus could have never come from that lab in Wuhan, China where they were studying coronaviruses and, you know, a bunch of people actually got sick with coronavirus. No, no, no, no, it can't be. I mean, come on. We're not as foolish as Eric Swalwell. I mean, maybe Nancy Pelosi is. She's the one after all who was touting Eric Swalwell's bill because she wanted to get the bottom to the bottom of this Russia, Russia, Russian nonsense, which wound up being an entire hoax in and of itself bought and paid for by Comey. we see new evidence of the financial, personal, and political grip the Russians have on President Trump,

and the hand of the Russian intelligence agencies in his campaign undermining our democracy. The Trump White House has a lot to answer for. Flynn is just a glaring reflection of the consistently dangerous and incompetent conduct of the Trump administration. By whose authority did he have his conversations and who did he report to? It's just a glaring, again, glaring example of the poor judgment of the President of the United States. You want to talk poor judgment. I mean, just what we're at it, right? I got an example right there.

Oh, and I get an example with you, Nancy. You, yes, very poor judgment, deciding not to call the Capitol Police when you needed to. On January 6th, oh, more poor judgment. Bringing your daughter in to film the whole thing instead of a real reporter, and then allowing your daughter to package and market that out to CNN, and they pretended like it was their own footage. So did ABC, I think. Unbelievable.

All right, so I guess we don't need to go there. We could. We won't. Quick reminder, make sure you go to 76research.com. Go check those portfolios out. It's important. I want you to be invested in the future. And thank you for being here.

Make sure that you subscribe. If you have not, do me that favor. Make sure you subscribe, share, like, make a comment. tell me what you think. Do you think Swalwell is going to wind up in prison? I don't know. I mean, in fairness, I don't know, because they really do seem to protect their own. Ilhan, I think, could actually be in quite a bit of trouble, or at least her husband, her husband, whether or not they can trace it to her, we'll see. But, you know, I guess we're all getting antsy and we're all waiting. But there is there is this. They got them. They got them good.

Really, really good. Anyway, thank you for being here. Make sure you subscribe and I'll see you back here live on the program tomorrow. Don't you wish you could just hit skip on the worst parts of your life? You know, the same way you can skip an ad? I get it. I'm Siaiaia and I live in Ice Cove. I've made some questionable decisions that didn't end up the way I planned.

And today I'm still figuring it out. Somehow things usually get worse before they get better. Apparently, that's how I roll. So bundle up and come along for the bumpy ride. Stream a new episode of North of North Tuesdays on CBC Gem.
