Yesterday, we had a nice conversation, a debate about whether or not the United States should militarily intervene in Iran.
Your votes and comments were collected.
Today we're going to continue that debate as it rages online between Ted Cruz and Tucker.
Carlson, New Right, and Donald Trump.
We're going to continue that conversation with Fox News's Guy Benson.
We also have a fascinating revisit of a 2012 column that everybody here,
tinfoil Pat, Two A Days, Dan spent time reading back in the early 2010s at Grantland.
Bill Simmons column about the movie star.
Now something like 13 years old, it's interesting to revisit what happened to the
movie star maybe specifically what happened to will smith let's get into all that but while we're
talking about theater drama and movie stars let's talk about the latest play to dominate
entertainment the martyrdom of democrats story number one new york city mayoral candidate
brad lander arrested yesterday intervening in an ice detention of a suspected
illegal immigrant standing in the hallways of a court proceeding lander linked arm and arm with the
suspected illegal immigrant as ice agents came in to detain the suspect lander refused to let go
playing a little game of red rover linking arms and demanding that ice agents show him a
judicial warrant for the arrest he has no right to see
a judicial warrant. Yesterday on the Will Kane show, I said he has no right to ask to see that
warrant. Many on the left loved that particular phrasing. Keith Oldman said I was not an expert on
anything, including hair care. Weird. Attack. What's wrong with my hair? But I don't know what a
bystander, even one running for officer holding the Office of State Comptroller has, in the form of
rights to tell an officer in a totally unrelated arrest to anything having to do with said
mayoral candidate to demand see the warrant. But this is the current act by Democrats. Play the
martyr. Get arrested. Act like you're the victim as you break the law. You can see the video
and Lander is absolutely obstructing officers in their arrest of this illegal immigrant. He is
physically obstructing the detention of the suspected illegal immigrant.
And shortly afterwards, he made the rounds appearing on MSNBC.
When you woke up today, were you trying to get arrested?
I mean, I had hoped what would happen was what happened last week and the week before
that I could walk peacefully out of the building with these families so they could reunite with their kids
and continue to make their application for asylum.
That is all I wanted.
How are you feeling?
I mean, I feel angry.
I feel sad.
I wanted to see Edgardo be able to get out of the building.
I'm going to be fine.
I lost a button on my jacket, but I've got a good lawyer.
I'll sleep in my bed tonight.
He's in ICE detention.
He has no lawyer.
He's been stripped of status and due process.
He feels sad.
Not as sad, I would assume, as Senator Alex Padilla of California,
who took to the Senate floor to cry over his detention by F.B.
for intruding upon a press conference by DHS secretary, Christy Nome.
But Alex Padilla, marshalling all of his theater kid training, shed crocodile tears, cracked voice.
He's really got cracked voice down.
He's really good at sounding super sad.
As he was detained for barging in on a press conference aggressively and not identified,
himself until already law enforcement
had been initiated. But that's
just two of the
theater kids breaking the law
and then crying tyranny when the law
is enforced. In fact, take a look
at the list that's now growing here
on the number of Democrats who have
theatrically
placed themselves in the
way of law enforcement.
You have
Congresswoman La Monica McIver
who on June 10th was
indicted for allegedly interfering with immigration
officers. She was arrested along with Ross Baraka, who outside that New Jersey detention facility
interfered, physically interacted with officers. You can see the video of La Monica McIver,
sumo belly bumping officers over and over and over again. From Red Rover to belly bumps,
It's not quite the coordination for illegal activity that Judge Hanna Dugan did in Milwaukee County
when she helped illegal immigrants avoid detention, ushering them out of the courthouse,
distracting ICE agents, and ushering them out, absconding them out the back door.
Brad Lander, Alex Padilla, LaMonica McIver, Hannah Dugan, Ross Baraka.
Democrats playing the role of martyr in order to get media attention that's what this is these are
political stunts the entire conversation around illegal immigration is a political stunt
not really even anymore playing upon empathy but playing on theatrics that's the view the view is
nothing but theatrics so they thought they'd put some of that to a real actor you know a highly
paid actor. In fact, a movie star, you know, not just a performer like Sonny Hosten, but a real
movie star in Arnold Schwarzenegger, also an immigrant, also the former governor of California,
when they asked him how he feels about what's going on considering his status as an immigrant
to America. Watch, listen. South, you are an immigrant. You're an immigrant in his country.
Did you have a visceral reaction to what they're doing, what ICE is doing when you see the
Well, I tell you, you said that the immigrant, I'm so proud and happy that I was
embraced by the American people like that.
I mean, imagine it came over here with the age of 21, with absolutely nothing, and then
to create a career like that.
I mean, in no other country in the world, could you do that?
it's incredible and it reminds me of that famous comedy bit by bill burr what a great man was
Arnold Schwarzenegger you know imagine immigrate to another country get famous for lifting weights
I lift weights nobody cares get famous for lifting weights against all odds become a movie star
when you can barely speak the language and nobody can speak you yet get a massive blockbuster
movie basically with a little person in Danny DeVito marry into that country's royalty maria
Shriver, famous Kennedy, and then, to top it all off, run for governor of a state you cannot
pronounce, California.
30 straight years of nothing but net, yeah, Arnold Schwarzenegger thought he could have sex with
the maid and get away with it. Are you kidding? It's a layup, said Bill Burr, because his
immigrant story is that of a great man. Agree, disagree, issue, policy, politics, party. He is
a wonderful story of accomplishment, a great man in the United States.
So he continued on the view.
I was asked to do on July 4th a big speech, the keynote speech at Mount Vernon,
that George Washington was made the rest, where he lived and all that,
to celebrate the 250th anniversary of America, the existence of America,
and I would be doing the speech that they asked me because I'm an immigrant,
and there will be 7,000 some people there
and there will be people that will be sworn in
and will become citizens that day.
So it's really a great, great celebration.
This is what this is all about,
is to celebrate people becoming Americans
and coming to America.
And at this point, all the D-List performers
are the bobbing heads at the panel.
That's great.
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
will be Goldberg nodding along.
They all seem to think he's with them.
Here we go. Yes, we're persecuting the immigrant.
Yes, now we're talking to a real immigrant who came to America and succeeded.
And we don't really care about everything he has to say about the greatness of America.
We can tell it's all leading up to.
And yet here we are today persecuting illegal immigrants.
They can tell this is where it's headed.
Here we go. Let's do it.
And then finally, he says this on the view.
But the key thing also is at the same time
that we got to do things legal
that is the important thing
you know so you got to do things legal
and those people that are doing illegal
things in America and they're the foreigners
they are not smart
because when you come to America
you're a guest
and you have to behave like a guest
like when I go to someone's house
and I'm a guest
then they will do everything I can
keep things clean
and to make my bed and to do everything that is the right thing to do
rather than committing a crime or being abusive or something like that
so that doesn't really work in this country now the tone has changed
attempts to interrupt him the yeah yeahs aren't so soft
the hmm's not so in agreement hmm and then Sonny Hosten reaches over and
places her hand on Arnold Schwarzenegger's arm as though to stop him to interrupt him
to get this thing back on track.
It's so wonderful to see this implode on the D-List Performers of the View.
But the D-List Performers of the View are the model these days
for the elected representatives among Democrats.
As they go out there and commit acts of theater
to get arrested for breaking the law,
in fact, physically interfering with law enforcement,
so that they can claim tyranny
once the law is enforced, just a ridiculous idocracy of modern-day politics.
That's the theater kids that today run the Democrat Party.
Let's get into once again whether or not it is America first to intervene in Iran.
I've read your feedback.
I hear from you.
Let's bring that.

I set a reminder on YouTube and on Facebook on our personal pages on each of those platforms for Wilcane country.
Bobby Burak over at Outkick put together an interesting premise yesterday,
an interesting opinion when it comes to Israel versus Iran.
He wrote on X, as I told Kilmead this morning,
I don't trust a single person talking about Israel, Iran.
Every single one in Washington, the media online, Hollywood,
is some combination of compromised, uninformed, or scared.
The conversation is divided into four groups.
Group one, Israel is always right, no matter what.
And if you dare question it, you are a dangerous anti-Semite.
Group two, Israel is always wrong.
And if you disagree, you are a joke blackmailed by Israeli intelligence.
Group 3. Trump is always right. And if you don't agree, you are actually never MAGA and are a traitor paid by Qatar.
Group 4. Trump is a bloody dictator, fascist and racist, sexist, and xenophobic.
Meanwhile, most Americans just want someone to fix the economy, get the government to stop wasting our money and someone to stop violent criminals.
from shooting us in the backs, or shooting up our blocks.
That's what was posted yesterday by Bobby Burak.
Yesterday, as I laid out and asked the question,
whether or not intervention militarily in Iran was actually America first,
I said that the answer to that has to satisfy, in my mind,
both of two questions.
One, how does it serve America, the people of America?
How does it serve the United States?
And two, is it worth the cost?
Simple analysis that I believe
helps us understand whether any foreign intervention is actually America first.
It can't be, in my mind, the answer of how it helps Israel.
It can only be how it helps America.
And it currently, as it stands, it's a pretty low-cost investment.
Even if it is demanded offensively, we drop bombs on nuclear facilities
or even facilitate a regime change in Iran with no troops on the ground and no nation building.
And I have a great amount of humility about how worlds can spiral where they can go.
and you have to have foresight and ask yourself what next.
At current, I think the answer to those two questions is, yes, it is America first to intervene in Iran.
That earned me accusations of both being anti-war and a warmonger, which may say I struck the balance just right or I am a poor communicator.
But as tinfoil pat has pointed out today, you don't seem to fit very neatly into any of the four categories as described by Bobby Burrack.
continue this conversation now with the host of the Guy Benson show at Fox News Radio, a Fox News
contributor. It is Guy Benson. What's up, Guy? What's up, Will? What do you think? What do you
think? You think it's America first to militarily intervene in Iran? Yeah. So first, let me address
the four categories that you laid out, or I guess Bobby laid out. I think there's more than four
categories. I think that does not include everyone, myself very much included.
And I think you just identified as well as someone who doesn't quite, you know, fit into the four box matrix that he presented.
I am certainly not someone who says Donald Trump is always right, much to the chagrin of much of my own audience.
And I hear from them from time to time when I say that I think he's wrong.
And I'm not bashful about saying it.
I think my job is to tell the truth as I see it to give my opinion and not tell people exactly what they want to hear.
So sometimes that involves criticizing anyone, including the president of the United States.
I'm also not a Trump hater or one of these, you know, reflexive, he's a criminal, he's horrible, impeach, and I'm definitely not the resistance either.
I think that Trump is often right, but not always. And when it comes to Israel, I think Israel is usually right, but not always.
I think compared to that neighborhood and people in the region, I think Israel is by far our greatest allies sharing our values the most, doing a lot of our dirty work, frankly, which is what they're doing right now in Iran and have been doing for many years.
They're great on intelligence.
They sort of keep an eye on some very dangerous characters in that part of the world
who want to kill us more than they want to even kill them.
So I'm very, very strongly pro-Israel, but no one is above reproach,
not Benjamin Netanyahu, not the Israeli government.
And when they do something wrong, often they admit it, by the way, and apologize.
But I'm not someone who's like, oh, it's Israel or no matter what all the time or you're an anti-Semite.
So I don't quite buy into that four square.
but I understand it's sort of useful as a framework for having these conversations.
Then the America First question, look, I think that President Trump has asserted that he's the one
who decides what counts as America first.
I know there are some people within the movement who say, well, no, it's actually not all
up to one person.
A lot of his supporters say, well, to some extent, he is the leader of the movement.
So if he says this, we're inclined to follow in that direction, I happen to agree with him
here. We're not talking about, I think it's a category error for people to say, well, it's war mongering
to talk about this potential intervention and we're tired of these forever wars. The forever
war in this case is being waged and has been waged by Iran. They have been killing our people,
Americans, for decades, decades. I think that would qualify as a forever war. They have repeatedly
tried to kill Trump himself. They have active assassination plots against other American officials
that they hate for various reasons. And so I think to say with the Israelis taking the lead,
what they've been able to pull off militarily and especially with their intelligence to me is
just a breathtaking triumph against their existential enemy that doesn't just say death to Israel
and death to America. They mean it and they've taken steps in that direction. They said if those guys
get a nuclear weapon, we are toast and we can't, we literally cannot let that happen and continue
to exist as a Jewish state. So they take it immediately, extremely seriously, and they're doing
almost all the heavy lifting. If the war mongering in this case is for the United States to come in
with a technology that only we have with a certain type of bomber and a certain type of bomb with
total air superiority with the assistance of the Israelis who have taken over the skies of Iran,
at this point with no resistance, because Iran can't anymore, if that means flying two
sorties over Fordo in that mountain, that facility that we know exists and doing the bunker
busters twice and then leaving, to me, that's not a war. It's an act of war. It is certainly a
military intervention, but it is not this category of saying, oh, it's Iraq again. We're going to
send tens of thousands of troops in to occupy the place and try to build a thriving democracy
out of Iraq. No one is talking about that. No one supports that. Certainly Donald Trump does not
support that. And the last point I'll make is it kind of reminds me of Soleimani. The Soleimani hit
during the first Trump administration. It was an act of war, who was a military intervention
to take out someone extremely dangerous in the Iranian regime. Trump did it. He didn't apologize.
And then he like dropped the mic and walked away and we didn't escalate into something else.
I think that would be the model. If he makes the choice to bomb Fordo, he'd say,
here are the four corners of what we're willing to do. We're going to do that in our interest
because we have the technology and that's it. I think that's something that an awful lot of
Americans would support and based on your criteria would check both of those boxes for America
First. Okay. I want to walk through a few of these elements and also play devil's advocate.
First, America First is a prospect. It's a premise. It's a concept that did pre-exist Donald
Trump. He said that he invented it, but it did pre-exist Donald Trump. That being said,
I do think that America First, largely today, rests upon the decisions of Donald Trump.
What I mean by that is it's not ideological, it doesn't have a coherent set of principles.
It's rather pragmatic.
And that pragmatism is grounded in making choices and making deals and running through analysis
of the prism of whether or not we're making decisions that's best for America.
He was a democratically elected president whose entire political career seems to reflect he's earned the benefit of the doubt
that that is how he actually goes about making decisions.
He's not at capture of Lindsey Graham or neocons, nor do I think he is compromised by Israeli intelligence.
Nor do I think it's clear now is the case that he's beholden to the more pacifist or isolationist wing of MAGA as well.
He's simply a consequentialist.
He's a pragmatist.
He is a strategy-based man.
And I do believe, therefore, he defines, appropriately so, America first.
I trust he'll make these decisions adhering to what we're asking for.
think of our interests first so i want to set that little bit of sort of history and analysis
behind us now i do want to ask you a couple of devil's advocacy questions first what is the
population of iran 93 million uh famous now reference to a conversation taking place between
tucker carlson and ted cruz which is up today at the tucker carlson network which you can
watch and making its way virally across your social media stream but i do want to ask you a couple
devil's advocacy questions.
And I have to ask myself some consistency-based questions on this front guy.
Thomas Massey, I believe also AOC, have joined together to say, whoa, whoa, war is supposed to be
an act of Congress.
I don't think they are without merit.
Are we then going to, in response, say, and play the game of what is war?
like B-2 bombers dropping bunker busters just on two sorties isn't actually war like what is the deal we and
I understand that's quaint now Congress declaring war it's been what 70 years I don't know how long it's
been in the last action where we had a declaration of Congress but are we just going to resign that
to the dustbin of history at this point requiring Congress to sign off on war yeah well I think
it's a more legitimate and consistent question or criticism from Massey than it is from the squad
people who are conveniently signing up with him on this. They don't like Trump and they don't,
they actually kind of like our enemies. I mean, let's just be clear. They do not want us taking
any action against our enemies in the Middle East. I think some of them are highly sympathetic to some
of those enemies actually. And they don't care at all about the Constitution or the constitutionality
of presidential action. If it's some left-wing president trampling the constitution blatantly
to expand the government or do left-wing things, they're all for it and don't care at all.
So I'm not interested in them. Massey at least has some consistency there. I'm not a constitutional
scholar. I have read different perspectives on this. I'm pretty persuaded that the commander-in-chief
has very broad latitude, especially for like surgical actions that are not a declaration of war
against an entire foreign country where now we are like formally at war with them boots on the ground
that sort of thing i think you know we've had presidents for a long time well well long time have not
i do think it's a little bit academic i do think it's a little academic on like what is war
let's put it this side well but it's not for the iranians i mean the minute the bombs start dropping
they're not too concerned about what has been signed or what the definition of i'm sure it feels like
war. Yeah, well, they've been waging war on us for decades, as I said. They've been killing as many
of us as they possibly can for decades. So the regime, I'm separating them, of course, out
which you would hope would be persuasive for Congress, what you would hope would be persuasive
of evidence for Congress and shouldn't be that hard. But you and I both know it probably wouldn't
pass Congress. I don't know. I think if, personal, I'm not persuaded that a president has to run to
Congress for permission for a bombing run, right? I think, I think if we're going to do a full war like
we had in Iraq or Afghanistan where there were votes, right? We had, we had voted to go into Iraq
with a much more controversial invasion without a direct tie to 9-11. I think if they put it up for a
vote, just up or down, can we send the B-2 bombers to take out this facility, yes or no? I think that
would pass. I think Republicans would pass it. I think some Democrats would pass it. There'd be a
coalition of no, mostly Democrats, some Republicans. I think it would pass. It's an interesting
conversation for us to have. Again, I believe you're a lawyer. I'm not. I just, I have read national
security and legal experts who I trust, who I respect would say, this is the type of thing that you
would not need congressional approval for this type of action. That might be right. It might be wrong,
but to a point that you made it's a conversation guy we should be having.
I think even if it's to this level, let's know, let that fall to the dust should.
I just don't think that that should be a calculation that is lost to the dustbin of history.
I just don't think it should be.
And if there's a legal argument to your point, then let's hear it.
And I'm willing and I'm open-minded to hear that.
Let's take a quick break.

Welcome back.
Okay, one more piece of devil's advocacy.
You know for my, for my introduction, that I believe.
that the action supports, the limited action, supports the analysis of America first.
But I will tell you, Guy, I have a ton of humility.
I might have more than you on this in that.
And if I'm being an open book on this, do I have suspicions that the Iranian population
is different than the Afghan population and the Iraq population?
Yes, of course I do.
Do I think there, do I have a suspicion the Iranian population is not just willing,
but interested in a different form of government?
yeah i am i'm inclined to believe that to be the case but i have a great amount of humility
because i think we are talking we are talking about regime change that's what we're talking about
and i really don't have a lot of tolerance for minutiae of conversations that acts like we're not we are
the Israelis do and that's what if the goal is to denuclearize iran really the prospect of the
iatola coming back because they don't trust him and he said he wants it and all these things
he's got to go that's the unwritten conversation underwritten conversation is
So my point, though, is humility on what comes next.
It may, and it's more than may, probably be a lot better than what we have now.
But let's be a little careful after the lessons of Iraq and Afghanistan and Libya and Syria.
So just real quick, one other thing on the going to Congress and the authorization, because I want to make this point.
I think it is an important conversation to have.
The Constitution matters.
I also think based, so does precedent.
And we've now had how many presidents consecutively who have not had to go to Congress when they go off and drop bombs?
You might say they should have, but they didn't.
And I just don't know, do we need to now go back to the drawing board for Donald Trump specifically?
All these other presidents can do it without congressional approval, but Trump, like we need to uproot more norms yet again at the expense of President Trump.
I don't necessarily agree with that, although I agree with your underlying point.
It should always be a question about whether there's constitutional authorizations do anything.
in government, especially big things like dropping bombs on a foreign land, even if it's fully
justified. In terms of what comes next humility, I'd make two points. One less direct, one more
direct to what you've asked. The first one is, I think what a lot of people liked about Trump,
and he campaigned on this, was he said, in my first term, no new wars. We didn't get America
entangled in any sort of brand new war. And that resonated with a lot of people, and they liked it.
I would point out, though, it's important to remember, he took out Syrian assets, he took out
Soleimani, he took out ISIS in a major way. We did a lot of military stuff under Donald Trump
in the first term, I think all of which benefited the United States of America, and none of which
spiraled into a wider war with boots on the ground. He has, I think, an ability to draw a line in
the sand and say, this is what benefits us, and we're not going further than that. So I think that
builds his credibility on this question for people who are worried that it might spiral,
spiral. I think he is aware of that and his own track record. No one, when he said, I didn't start
any new wars in the first term, no one's like, you're a liar because of all these examples.
They thought back to the examples, approved of what he did, and also acknowledged it was not
starting a new war. I think that's what we're looking at here. I think that's an important point
to make. And then finally, on this humility point, yes, I think anyone who's lived
and a post-9-11 experience, or let me, go back to Vietnam, right?
A lot of humility about not being absolutely sure what's going to happen is in order.
I think a lot of the people, by the way, who have been dead set against any attacks on Iran,
including what Israel has already achieved, they made all sorts of predictions very confidently
about the parade of disasters that would ensue if this happened.
And at least so far, every single one of them has been wrong.
All of them have been wrong.
Right. So I think there's humility in both directions required here, not just the warmonger or the pacifist. A lot of people can guess what might happen. No one knows for sure. I do think that Iran's population, the Persians are much more pro-Western than a lot of places in the Middle East. There's a long history to support that. Now, could things have changed, you know, over since 1979 and the population been totally indoctrinated? Sure. Of course, we know a lot of the population despises that regime.
So you're right.
I do think that it's there to ask the question, what would come next?
And I know you have a heart out in just a few moments.
I want to run one more topic by you, which we can do quickly.
But I just want to say this because you've brought it up a couple of times.
You've referenced the Tucker Carlson, Ted Cruz conversation, which I have not seen in its entirety.
Only once.
But I did see a clip of Ted Cruz.
And I bring this up because I want to tie a button on this, because to me, I mean this.
It's like all that matters to me is does it serve the interest of America?
Ted Cruz makes a biblical argument.
We did see an argument made by Mike Huckabee.
There was some text release the other day of sending Donald Trump.
A biblical argument for the support of Israel.
And I know there's a lot of people listening that believe this to be the case as well.
And there's Benjamin Netanyahu out there saying, I understand America first.
I don't understand America dead.
Today, Tel Aviv, tomorrow, New York.
These, to me, are not the appeals that resonate in making a decision that serves America.
first. I don't need to be scared into action. And I don't really, in this case, believe it should
be something that is informed by someone's interpretation of the Bible. For me, this is cold,
this is strategic, this is self-interested. It is, hey, I'm the American taxpayer. I pay money
to my government. I elect representatives to represent the interest of Americans. And I think
you can walk and chew gum at the same time so you can focus on the border in crime and fentanyl and
also have a foreign policy. But I always want to know that you have my interests in mind. Not
Israel's, not Qatar's, not Washington D.C.'s, not anyone's, but that of the American people.
Yeah. And so I think actually a lot of the time Israel's interests are our interests because of the
amount of intelligence and sort of nasty, dirty work that we don't want to do. We don't want boots
on the ground. We've got pretty low tolerance for that. Israel's willing to do that type of work.
and by the way, there's also hundreds of thousands of Americans who live in Israel.
So to point that out, I also think just broadly speaking, a regime that chants on a daily basis death to America,
it's almost like the animating chant of their entire regime to prevent that regime from getting nuclear weapons
and from continuing to develop a long-range missile program, that seems to be, at least to me,
the textbook definition of what is in the interest of the United States of America.
Yeah. If the United States has the ability with very high probability of success and low probability for any casualties at all in this limited mission over the skies of Iran, if we're able to take out their nuclear program and basically put an end to their military designs in one fell swoop, that seems like America first American interest to a T. Some people might disagree, but that's my read on it.
Okay, I want to be respectful of your time. I would love to play you one piece of sound and get your reaction.
I think you're the perfect person to listen to this. Terry Moran, I believe, on the bulwark
podcast. He's a former ABC News reporter fired with the bulwark. My own feeling is you don't
sacrifice your citizenship as journalism, and your job is not to be objective. There is no Mount
Olympus of objectivity where a Mandarin class of wise people have no feelings about their society.
We're all in this together. Would you have to be?
is fair and accurate.
And I would refer to the interview with the president that I did or a lot of my work.
And I would also say that this, while very hot, is an observation, a description that is accurate and true.
Here's my hot take, guy.
I agree with Terry Moran.
I don't think there is an amount of Olympus of apostles that sit atop and have achieved and demand of others' objectivity.
I actually agree with this.
I just disagree when he says he is somehow an arbiter of truth and fairness.
I don't think he is that.
But at least I know what he thinks.
My job is not to pretend to my audience that I am objective.
It is to strive for accuracy and truth and to be honest with my audience.
What do you think, Guy?
Well, the thing is they pretend to be objective.
That's the problem.
Right?
And so when this all happened, I was on outnumbered on the news channel that day when it all went down.
And I said, I actually really love the fact.
and I hope I hope journalists continue to post their true feelings on social media because it gives us a window into knowing exactly who they are and what they think, right?
They have this whole air of superiority and how deeply objective they are and they're just down the line journalists doing their job.
And then when they spout off in these clearly partisan screeds on social media, it's like, well, we can see you, we can read what you're saying.
And then when you have, you know, your nice hair and your nice suit on ABC News, pretending like you're something else, we know that that,
is some sort of a facade. We know what you actually think. I think it's actually honest for them
to come out. And I would expect it more. If they're like, hello, everyone, I'm a card-carrying liberal
Democrat. I agree with the Democrats. I vote for the Democrats. I hate Donald Trump. I hate Stephen
Miller. I support illegal immigration, whatever the list might be. Because I know John Harwood has a
new piece, the same exact thing. And he's one of the biggest left-wing hacks out there,
who is a mainstream journalist for a long time. If they just came out and said, yeah, I'm on
team blue and you can take my reporting and analysis, you know, with that grain of salt,
that's what you and I do. I think, I think there's like, there's transparency there. I prefer that
to the supercilious condescension of claimed objectivity and neutrality when in fact there are a bunch
of, you know, hatchet men partisans. Just tell us the truth about who you are and what you believe
and let the chips fall, I think that's a lot better than the model that a lot of them are trying
to pretend to be a part of. Totally agree. For more of that great analysis, check him out
at the Guy Benson's show, 3 to 6 Eastern Time at Fox News Radio. Guy, always good to talk to you.
Thank you so much, man. I appreciate it. See you.
Let's head over to the Wallisha, where John Sanders said, Iran can't do anything. They might as well
give up. And then Baya Batat on YouTube says, why?
Iran making it worse for themselves if they are weak. I think it's existential for the Mullahs at this
point. So it's either Bamous, get on an airplane and head for Moscow, or fight to the death.
Mark Stevens said in regards to Democrats, narcissistic abuse, then play the victim when you object.
Pretty good analysis of what's going on with the theater kids. And then 13th Apostle says,
let's get Will Kane as the secretary of common sense. Maybe Trump can put this.
position in. I like it. Secretary of Common Sense. Is Will Smith a movie star? When was he a

jump into the comment sections set a reminder go to the show's youtube page go to the show's
facebook page and there we form community there we form the willis show uh did you guys see what
happened with kately clark man it's raising some serious
questions about what that league is all about, the WNBA, whether or not they're interested in
stars, because they have one, one.
One could argue, she is an A-level star, and they don't even have B and C-level stars.
From A, it drops to D.
She is the entire league, and they allow things like this to happen last night against the
Connecticut Sun.
Watch when Katelyn Clark is trying to create some space.
It looked like she just got hit in the eye there.
Oh, oh, and Marina Mabry.
I missed that one, Edona.
Oh, I miss that one, too.
Damn, man.
Caitlin Clark is poked in the eye, first of all.
One could argue, hey, fouls happened, things like that happened, right?
At that point, you could say aggressive defense, whatever.
She's poked in the eye.
she pulls up she lets go with the ball she grabs her eye but the same girl that pokes her in the eye
then bows up to her and puts her chest in her face like it wasn't just a hard foul accident
like there's nothing katelyn clark has done in response at this point so what's the point in bone up
into her face and the immediately i don't think kately's even extended her arm to push her away yet
two other connecticut son come running at katelyn clark now she's surrounded by three of opposing players
and one of them on the run-up comes up
and sort of bodies her
sending Caitlin Clark to the ground.
Not for nothing,
but Caitlin did then drill a three in their face
towards the end of the game
and show them once again
why she's an A-level star.
They're only A-level star.
But I believe in the whole interaction,
no flagrant foul, right?
In fact, only a foul on Caitlin?
Is that what the outcome on that was?
There were three, I think.
Flagrants.
Free fouls?
And she got one of them.
And she got one of them.
Thank you for the correction on my fake news.
There's like a moratorium on just attacking her from every other team.
It's crazy.
You mean there should be a moratorium?
Sorry, sorry, moratorium.
There's like a memo.
Dan, what does moratorium mean?
I have no idea.
He knows.
He knows what means.
No, it means not to do something.
Yes.
I meant memo.
And there's, exactly.
but there should be a memo going around to all these teams
to basically just attack her as much as you can and go against her.
Like they're clearly just trying to go to her.
Yeah, I mean, it certainly seems like that.
It doesn't matter who she's playing.
It's like maybe there is, maybe the coaching is,
hey, if you're physical with Caitlin Clark,
it's one of the only ways to stop her.
So, like, they're all encouraged to be really physically aggressive,
but it's hard not to look at this and think there's animus towards her.
Hey, do you think just being contrarian for a moment, just checking my thoughts, okay?
You think there's a, I wonder what, you know how the NBA does polling on most overrated,
most underrated, most disliked players in the league, all that?
I've never seen anything like that in the WNBA.
Is she incredibly disliked?
Like, as a person, I wonder, is she disliked?
Is she a trash talker?
is she somebody that like
She'll let you know
Other girls hate
Not because of her fame or attention
But just because of the way she plays
She'll let you know
When she drains a three
She has a little attitude about it
No more than anyone else
I just wonder what's going on
Why so much of this
Attitude and treatment toward her
It's it's and look
Any other league would put an end to it
We always talk about star treatment
And it kind of infuriates us
you know, uh, ruffing the passer on Tom Brady or whoever becomes, oh, you touched him.
We, Patrick Mahomes, we get upset about that.
But the league is protecting their stars because they're moneymakers, right?
I mean, you got to protect W. You got to protect Caitlin Clark.
She is the WNBA. And the league itself, even if she's disliked, just playing devil's advocate
or contrarian thought there, even if she is, it doesn't matter.
The league has got to put this down.
They've got to stop this.
But isn't the league...
Oh, they don't have a league.
Isn't the league more the players in the WMBA than the NBA?
I feel like the players control the league a little more in the narrative in the WMBA.
I don't know.
Could you even name the commissioner?
Can you name the commissioner of the WNBA?
No.
Can we name the commissioner of every men's...
Can we name NFL NBA Major League Baseball and NHL?
We can't, right?
Don't look.
Get off your computer.
We can do that, right?
Let's do it really quickly.
Patrick, Commissioner of Major League Baseball.
Rob Bancred, because I hate him.
I know that one, easy.
Okay.
Yes.
Ready?
I'll take NBA Adam Silver.
We all know NFL.
Hey, I get the hard one.
And you get the hard one.
Yeah, but I could do it.
I don't know.
He's been the commissioner for forever.
I don't know it off the top of my head.
Really?
Okay, I'll give you back to NFL since we didn't say it out loud.
Go ahead and say you in the NFL since we didn't say it out loud.
Obviously.
Great job, yeah.
I mean, even you should, we should all know.
It's Gary Bettman, right, in the NHL?
That's right, that's right.
That's right.
Former NBA executive.
Commissioner.
Out of the four, it's my least watched.
Of the WNBA.
That's a shame.
Speaking of name recognition.
Hockey's great.
Let's take that moment and give it to Patrick.
Come on, Dan.
Let's give it to Patrick.
Stanley Cup champion, Florida Panthers, back to back.
He took down once again the Edmonton Oilers,
the star-laden Edmonton Oilers.
In Dallas, we just don't know how we can get over that hump.
Seems to be no problem for you guys in Florida.
Two years in a row, six games, five to one Stanley Cup,
back home in the, oh-so, hockey confines of South Florida.
I hate monopolies.
We've literally, I mean, the state of Florida is one.
five of the last eight Stanley Cups.
Canada still hasn't won a cup since
1993. It's a good
time to be alive. What you mean, eh?
It's great.
Have you seen Paul Bissonet, I think
it's Paul Bissonette, right? The NHL commentator
on T&T saying
that Florida and Texas
have an unfair advantage in hockey
because no state income tax. And he thinks
that maybe the league should think about doing something
like taxing those teams that are
there or changing their salary cap. It's not
fair that there's no state income.
tax in Florida and Texas and, uh, I mean, maybe move, dude, you know, maybe, I don't even think
that many players make decisions based upon that. I've been waiting for that in the NBA,
you know, somebody do the income tax analysis in Texas and come to the MAVs. I don't know that
they do. I don't know if they do in hockey or not, but hey, man, sorry. That's the way the
cookie crumbles. If you want to live in New Jersey, live in New Jersey, but be prepared to stay
pay income tax an hl commissioner gary betman was on with with him and he pooped the idea he
he said exactly what you said it's like people go there for you know a bunch of reasons it
is a one factor of many factors so it doesn't it just doesn't make any sense and it and it didn't
play a role in the first 20 years of florid expansion in hockey right like we sucked for years
So, I don't know.
Now you're a dynasty.
Once again, congratulations.
Florida Panthers, tinfoil Pat, Stanley Cup champion.
Speaking again of name recognition, in 2012,
sports columnist, personality, podcaster, entrepreneur,
Bill Simmons wrote a column at Grantland,
which was a fascinating website,
of sports journalism and he wrote a column that all of us remember independently we all read it
we all found it fascinating and it was what happened to the movie star and his analysis largely
focused around will smith he argued that will smith had reverse engineered what it meant
to be a movie star that the formula was box office it wasn't necessarily prestige
It wasn't awards, it was picking the right roles, and being in the right movies that sold seats that were box office hits.
And at that time, he was right, right?
Like, if Will Smith was in a movie, it was a hit.
Now, was it a hit because Will Smith was in the movie or because he was picking movies that would be hits?
But as far as movie stars, judged by the analysis, are they in?
in big hits, it really was only Will Smith.
He pointed to Matt Damon, he pointed to Brad Pitt.
They had stinkers. They had movies that didn't make money.
And they weren't just like prestige pieces, meaning they took some roles for reasons that are
their reasons, but not designed and did not result in big box office hits.
So if a studio was looking for an actor and they were going to pay that actor at that time,
what?
$20 million for the role?
Yep.
and the calculus was this is going to be a blockbuster.
You went with Will Smith.
Now, there's two interesting things that have happened since that time.
What happened to Will Smith and what happened to the movie star?
Let's take those independently.
Patrick, you're the one that's interested in what happened to Will Smith.
Sure.
I mean, like, if you look at Will Smith, he was a massive star in the 90s coming off the freshmen of Bel Air.
He then rolls it into, you know, movie fame with Independence Day, Men in Black, you know.
I mean, these are these are summer blockbuster movies that, you know, were cornerstones for the industry.
But then he was talking about some of the roles he passed up recently or in the past.
He was talking about this recently.
And some of those roles were inception, the Matrix.
You know, we know that he did wild, wild, wild.
West, which was a dud at the time.
And he also did, he also passed up Django Unchained.
And it's like those, those roles could have kept him in that conversation for even
longer.
I mean, like, I think we still think of him as a movie star, but I think that we've seen
his star kind of, you know, diminished a little bit.
The slap hurt him.
Yeah.
But that's fairly recent.
And you could argue that his decline was before the slap.
But the slap, specifically the Oscar slap of Chris Rock,
undercut the image that he had created, which was safe.
Everybody likes Will Smith.
Likeable, non-controversial, and the slap totally destroyed that brand.
But the calculus of Will Smith is interesting as well, like what he chose to be in.
And he did just start missing on the, I think Bill Simmons' analysis was right.
Will Smith was really smart at looking at role offers and going, is this a hit?
Is this going to work?
Does this have mass appeal?
And he made the same mistake that, as you point out, Patrick, a lot of guys made.
With that, he missed on some movies that were more complicated, like Inception.
I can imagine getting the script for Inception and being like, I don't get it.
Literally.
By the way, there's others, right?
Like, Sean Connery passed on Lord of the Rings because he didn't get it.
Right?
It was too tough.
Um, Bert Reynolds passed on, was it Han Solo?
Did he pass on Han Solo or Star Wars?
Again, because it was like out there.
It was edgy at the time in terms of like, this doesn't sort of fit the formula.
Yeah.
And so guys, honestly, they became risk-verse.
I think that's what you're looking at.
And Will Smith hadn't, I mean, I can't think.
Have you guys seen the way that Will Smith is in the news today?
is he's got new music out.
Have you guys seen that?
Yeah.
And independent of this conversation, I saw it.
Yeah, man, but I saw it.
And do you know what I thought?
Oh, this song is designed, like, from start to finish,
to be something he hopes people sings in clubs.
Like, that's what I heard.
Runways.
It's got a refrain that you can almost hear people on the dance floor.
I can't remember what the refrain is over and over,
but he keeps saying things that you can almost see, like,
oh, he envisions people on the dance floor
going bananas over this, sing it.
Not like I'm creating great music,
but I'm creating something designed to be
the movie equivalent
or the music equivalent of a blockbuster.
It's an algorithm boost.
I kind of think it is.
It's all algorithm.
Formulating an algorithm.
And that brings us to this, Dan,
what happened to the movie star?
And you're the one that's been looking into that
because, honestly, it's not just Will Smith at this point.
Now, I'm old.
I'm willing to admit this is,
I think, in fact,
fact, let's find out if it's because I'm old.
You got two a day's, you got tinfoil.
Dan, you've got somebody in studio with you as well.
So let's broaden our small focus group here.
If I see Brad Pitt in something on Netflix or Prime or anything, I'm probably going to watch it.
Like, I'm interested.
And I've got actors that I have said to myself, they're magnetic, they're charming, they make
pretty good choices. I'm interested. Tom Hardy is one of those for me. And there's quite a few,
actually. Christian Bale's probably up there. Denzel Washington is up there. If they're in it,
I am probably going to watch it. Now, that's not everything, because like I didn't watch the Brad Pitt
George Clooney assassin movie. Is it two wolves or wolves or something like that?
Really good. You may not even know. It's really good, Dan? Yeah, I liked it. Oh, really?
Worth of a watch.
Okay, well, that's interesting.
It's not an Oscar winner, but it's good.
It's cracking for me.
I don't see everything these guys are in, but they still have pull for me.
But what we're, so first, let's decide on my old.
Do you guys have that same thing?
If you see those guys are a different guy, you're much, much, much more apt to watch.
Yeah, that's Leo DiCaprio for me.
If I see a minute, I'm going to watch it no matter what.
He's on my list.
Yep.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
Tinfoil.
yeah i mean i you know i'm that way with uh like i'll find an actor um like you know like i go through
spurts so like mel gipson um's one and then uh you know recently west anderson films have
come back on hulu so i'm going back through those because a lot of those actors i like um
seeing over and over again so you know owen wilson have you seen the one with benicia del torro
the new one not yet i don't know i'm curious about that
but yeah okay
Tom Cruise is one
Tom Cruise also
see Tom Cruise isn't on my list
to be honest
he's the only star left
but I don't
like I'm not into mission impossible
like I was into the first one or two
but then there's so many I'm not gonna see a ball
and you call yourself a man
so
but the point is
then the algorithm is
overtaken movie starting for most people
it doesn't matter
the argument is the star
doesn't matter.
It's bright.
In the world of streaming,
it is the formula, Dan.
Yeah, it's the formula.
They just, it's all AI-IP-based.
It's like the Harry Potter's, the Marvel movies,
all those things outweigh anything an actor can do.
Plus, like, all the streaming,
different streaming services,
an actor gets lost in the shuffle and all these things.
There's no blockbuster movie theater movies anymore,
at least not that much.
there are some, but that made a star, seeing someone on a billboard, going to a movie theater,
knowing that they're going to, you're seeing them.
When you're streaming it at home, you're watching so much content that you could be watching
a Mission Impossible brand new movie with Tom Cruise and then go to some really nice TV show
that you'll like better and you'll forget all about Tom Cruise.
So it just muddies it.
You know, Lindy Man also kind of talks about this, like the end of new star creation.
happened around 08
and it was like
with streaming and iPhones
and things like that
you kind of see everything
shift from stars to franchises
and it's the same in sports too
and they create fake stars too
yeah Timothy Chalomey
to me is a fake star
you know what's interesting about
Timothy Chalemay really quickly
I just started I couldn't finish it
it was too long last night
but the Bob Dylan movie
a complete unknown
pretty good Timothy Chalemay is a
really good actor. I don't know how much that's fake or not, to your point. I don't know that means
he's a movie star. I'm not saying he's a movie star, but he is a good actor. That I'm interested.
That movie's pretty interesting, the complete unknown. But you were about to say it's the same
in sports, tinfoil, and I think that's interesting. Like, so what are we talking about? Like, look at
the thunder or look at the pacer, for that matter. And it's not driven by a single big time star,
but a formula of
the NBA is different
so like the NFL
is based on the shield
and it's based on the teams
and you follow your team
like you're a Cowboys fan
if they got rid of DAC
right you're still you know
the NBA though is star driven
and that's why the NBA has had problems
because it's harder to create stars
so if you're not able to replace
like LeBron's getting older
you can't replace LeBron
then you don't have those franchises
available.
What about baseball?
Baseball?
I think baseball is more like the NFL.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Most things are.
Yeah.
You're talking about from entertainment.
I thought you're talking about from a winning perspective, like on the court,
but you're talking about from ratings and seats perspective.
And you're right.
Yeah.
Maybe I don't, the NBA made a mistake in leaning in.
I think they made a mistake.
They're either going to have to figure out how to develop their own stars in this current
environment, which, by the way, in everything.
it's hard to develop stars in my business right will anybody ever again be as big as bill o'Reilly was
you know it's a legitimate question and the answer is probably no right like um it's all smaller
so it's and i guess that's a product fractured attention spans in a in a plethora of options
same as in sports so the nba might have made a miscalculation
in not trying to build up that franchise model.
And the miscalculation was leaning into social media,
leaning into the personalities of it all.
We've had that conversation before.
You can't, you know, losing Jordan was devastating,
but luckily you had LeBron.
Losing LeBron will be devastating.
Who will you replace him with?
In my book, it's not going to be Anthony Edwards.
It's not Nicola Yolkich.
It's not Janus.
It's probably not Luca.
And we have said on this program before,
their best hope is it's Cooper flag.
But that being said, what a better model with the NFL, where we root for laundry, you know,
doesn't matter who's on the field or who's playing.
It matters a little bit, but it doesn't matter the same extent.
And so instead of leaning into the social media, individual, personal soap opera,
I remember when I was ESPN, everybody loved the tweet fights between NBA stars and, you know,
the late-night recruiting sessions for the Rockets and the Clippers.
And man, they should have spent that time building up, if you live in Miami, you're a heat fan, not a Chris Bosch or LeBron fan.
And if you live in Cleveland, you're a Cleveland fan and on and on.
Like, that's the model that is sustainable in a world where it's much more difficult to ever find another star.
I was a kid from Connecticut that was a Chicago Bulls fan in the 90s just because of Jordan.
Once he was gone, I wasn't a Bulls fan anymore.
Sure.
Which left me with no NBA identity.
but that's fine.
I never thought I liked Brad Marchand, you know, with the Bruins.
And then he gets traded, and then you're a huge fan of him, you know?
It's like, because you love the laundry, you know?
I did.
That's what it is.
It changes things.
I did, if we want.
I put together a little list of actors compared to athlete equivalence now, if you want
to go through that at all.
So, like, the LeBron James of acting right now would be Tom Cruise.
Last of a Dying Breed, still dominant.
Hmm.
Yes.
Leo DiCaprio is Patrick Mahomes.
He's selective, elite, and performed at the highest level when it matters.
Do we agree on that one?
Okay.
Leo Mahomes.
He has lost two Super Bowls.
Yeah.
It's fine.
Wow.
Leo's a stud who he's on the list.
He makes great movies.
He's a great actor.
Yeah.
Has an Oscar.
Zendaya is Caitlin Clark.
Genzi superstar.
She's a great actress.
People love her.
I don't see it
I don't see it
but that's fine
to be determined
how about Margot Robbie
as Caitlin Clark
Margo Robbie is on this list
as Simone Biles
Simone Biles
known for excellence
Margo Robbie has carried a movie
a huge blockbuster hit
in Barbie
yeah
like has Zendaya ever carried a movie
I know she's been in Dune
and some big ones
but they're not Zendaya vehicles
show
euphoria she carried
Barbie was Margo Robbie.
Yeah, that's true.
Timothy Chalemay is on this list.
Let's see if you agree with this one.
He's Joe Burrow.
I would say Timothy Chalemay is more like,
who's a guy that had an awesome rookie year?
Jaden Daniels.
He's Jaden Daniels.
Like, let's see it play out for a little bit.
Okay.
Because Timothy Chalemay is a little more,
has a little more success in that area.
but he's green.
I mean, he's still green.
That's true.
I respect that Timothy Chalmay says he still wants to live in that era of,
what did he say in his famous speech?
Like, I want to be great, like De Niro, and he rattled off some guys.
I can't remember who he rattled off, but let's see if he can do it.
I like this comparison.
Ben Affleck is Dak Prescott.
Strong, steady, criticized unfairly, but keep showing up.
And by the way,
might be on that list if he's in it look the town
Argo yeah these are bangers that you're going to want to see he's great
even uh oh what the other have you did you guys ever see triple front at the Indian
triple frontier did you ever see it was like a Netflix movie that came out during the
pandemic yeah heist movie yeah the accountant the accountant too was right was great
that just came out I did not like accountant too really did not like it was awesome no
it was too emotional for you that's why
I think Affleck should be insulted.
By Dak Prescott comparison?
Yes, I mean, that's like, he's had bangers.
What does Dak done and fills it out in the playoffs?
Ouch.
Ouch.
I'm going to tell you something.
I still believe this.
