Our man Justin is sitting in for two days who's off getting married and perhaps now vacationing on his honeymoon. The boys in New York have something to illustrate the level of humiliation that I've experienced

over the past 48 hours. Let's start in New York. Justin, if you might, please, let's cue up what they made me do on Fox and Friends weekend. Let's cue up exactly where they brought in, quote unquote, a taste of Texas into Fox Plaza on the streets of New York.

Here is, I guess, what was supposed to be a competition, and for those of you listening on radio or on podcast, a line dancing competition. do the best you can't to hear it i'll do my best to explain all right to the tune of brooks and dunn's hardworking man i'm off step i'm out of beat i can't keep up and there's my twinkletoes friend pete head seth just prancing around the square look at him just clapping moving his arms I do have my fingers and thumbs into my belt like you're supposed to do, but I can't do it.

And I actually had to wave the white flag. This was bad. This was bad. And the internet let me know about it. The internet told me exactly how bad it was, in fact. If you go on over to Instagram and I bring you back over here into the studios with the Will Cain show in Dallas. What you'll see is people very upset with my... representation of Texas. Rebecca on Twitter says, Will, you are from Texas and you can't line

dance. Mason Beaver says, what's the deal man? You're making us Grayson County boys look bad with the dancing. Bear Ag 95 says two left feet for Will Kane. Now, I will say I have lived most of my life by the idea that men should not be able to line dance. So, congratulations, Hegg Seth. You're the best line dancer on Fox and Friends. May you wear that crown proudly. But it wasn't just the line dancing that was my source of humiliation. Of course, that was on the plaza in New York City. The humiliation extended to the fields in Dallas. We're going to get into that a little bit later here on the Wilcane show, what happened to the Cowboys.

Plus, we have an exclusive interview. On Friday, I was in Virginia Beach, Virginia, and I got to sit down with the governor of Virginia, Governor Glenn Yonkin, a man who many are saying could be the Republican nominee for president in 2028. That's all coming up, plus Miranda Devine on the Wilcane show.

But let's get started now with story number one. The current polling average, according to a New York Times Sienna poll, published just this morning, shows Donald Trump beginning to establish a commanding lead in three of the seven battleground states. The New York Times headline reads, Trump shows signs of strength and sunbelt battlegrounds poll finds. In Arizona, Trump holds a four point to five point advantage. 50 to 45 over Kamala Harris. In Georgia, it's a four-point advantage, 49 to 45. And in North Carolina, it's a two-point advantage, 49 to 47. That's three very important battleground states, three of the seven battleground states.

And when you dig into why people are more interested in Donald Trump than Kamala Harris, According to the Sienna, New York Times poll, what you find are statements like, when it comes to Kamala Harris, there's a lack of believability in what she promises. There is a lack of trust and disbelief in her competence to pull off the office of the presidency. When it comes to Donald Trump, the negatives include his behavior. And it got me thinking this morning about the idea of competence. leadership. Let's take a moment if we can and just survey the world as we wake up on this Monday some 40 odd days from the election. What would be evidence that the United States right now is the beneficiary of competent leadership? George W. Bush came into the presidency wanting to be

the education president. When he ran for president in the late 90s taking office in the early 2000s. He wanted to reform American education. Of course, what happened? Circumstances and events. 9-11. The truth is the power of the presidency as designed by the Constitution and the realism of the job of the president when it comes to circumstances and events is that he is manager of the United States, leader on the world stage, foreign affairs. So let's take a quick survey across the world. As you wake up on this Monday, Hezbollah and Israel are on the brink of all-out war. We talked about this last week with Pete Hegg-Seth, who's extremely knowledgeable on what is an amazing operation to blow up thousands of pagers, just to reiterate. And you go back and

listen to that episode of The Will Kane Show, but this was an operation 15 years in the making where Hezbollah, under its leader, said no longer to use cell phones, lock-on- up you want to look for the agent is the quote the agent is in your phone he's in your wife's phone he's in your children's phone get rid of phones and they went archaic they went to pages and they ordered pages through a Taiwanese company that Taiwanese company then subcontracted out to what amounted to a shell company run by the israeli massad and shinbet based out of hungry literal israeli intelligence officers were working on those pagers placing one to two ounces of explosives and then triggered that simultaneously last week,

maiming and killing. Dozens of Hezbollah soldiers killed hundreds maimed thousands of explosions. Then a day later, walkie-talkies across Lebanon exploded. Then a day after that, targeted strikes from missiles. Now we're on the brink of war between Hezbollah and Israel. Of course, that's on the wake in the wake of a war between Hamas and Israel. Of course, that comes on the heels of a war between Russia and Ukraine. And that type of offensive followed America's disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan.

That's all looking at our rearview mirror. If we look at our leadership on the world stage, what's more concerning is if we look out the windshield. With these type of dominoes falling and that type of freedom, license, given to authoritarian's, how long until China decides that now is their time to move on Taiwan. No matter how you measure it, the United States is failing its leadership test in the world. And that's obviously not what we've been promised. We've been promised competency.

Competency is what the American people need to see from Kamala Harris. You're not going to get that sense when it comes to the economy. We don't, first of all, feel confident that we're getting the real picture of the economy, unemployment numbers adjusted like every month you get a figure and then some months later we have to revisit those numbers and we find out that the unemployment numbers were much higher than what we were told the feds cut in interest rates historically at a half point percentage to try to keep up with what looks like declining inflation and increasing unemployment which is essentially the advent of a recession if the economy recoils and unemployment goes up the feds trying to juice it

by lowering interest rates to avoid a collapse in the economy. For what it's worth, House Speaker Mike Johnson this morning announced a deal to avert a government shut down roughly two to three weeks before the election. It took out the safe act, which many Republicans wanted, in order to ensure safe elections or help safeguard safe elections. I have to say, if there had been a government shut down two to three weeks before presidential election, it would have been absolutely disastrous for Donald Trump. So that's been put off until December 20th.

And then, of course, there's just what you and I both know, and we experience an absurd amount of division in America. And people will say this division dates back to 2016. It dates back to Donald Trump. But I do wonder about that. Of course Donald Trump has caustic rhetoric. Of course he does. Of course.

But who's most of that rhetoric been pointed at? I'll give you two examples. one, his political opponent, Hillary Clinton, or two, illegal immigration. On the other side, that invitation has been taken and the ante doubled up. The division is turned on fellow Americans. I mean, of course, in the beginning in 1718, it was focused on MAGA Americans. I know, I was on ESPN. And one of my big points of debate, for example, with Max Kellerman on first take,

was why do you always vilify the people that vote for Donald Trump? but i mean that was the appetizer in the meal we would soon be served we got race division consistently until it manifested with the george floyd riots in 2020 americans your neighbor is racist americans they hate you that's what we were not just preached but like a chorus and a song that we were forced to remember like a jingle and a commercial and then comes covid and your neighbor is a threat literally to your life, a pandemic of the unvaccinated, the man who won't wear the mask,

the people that won't shut down their business, the people that go out to the grocery store. This is the division under what we were sold as competent leadership. And when you kind of breed that level of division, what you end up with is insanity. First, the obvious form of insanity. We've just survived the second assassination attempt

of Donald Trump. And this morning, a letter from Ryan Wesley Ruth has been released. Apparently, he left some supplies and ammunition and weapons. And a letter with a neighbor, that letter has been revealed publicly and turned over to the FBI. It reads as follows, if you're watching on YouTube or on Facebook, I invite you into the Wilcane Show Studios in Dallas, and you can see it up on my screen. This is in the handwriting of Ryan Wesley, Ruth.

Dear world, this was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump, but I am so sorry I failed you. I tried my best and again gave it all the gumption I could muster. It's up to you now to finish the job, and I will offer $150,000 to whomever can complete the job. Everyone across the globe from the youngest to the oldest knows that Donald Trump is unfit to be anything, much less a U.S. president. U.S. Presidents must, at a bare minimum, embody the moral fabric that America, that is America, and be kind, caring, and selfless, and always stand for humanity.

That's Ryan Wesley Ralph explaining his attempt on the life of Donald Trump. You divide America in almost every imaginable way. And yes, you incentivize, you emboldened, you motivate. the insane among us, but you also make us, those among us, around us, insane. I think if you survey the world, you survey at home, you survey the economy, Americans are very skeptical that they've been living for the past three and a half years under a vision of competent leadership. Competent leadership has been sold to you like you were hiring a McKinsey consultant. Oh, someone to make the trains run on time. someone who can micromanage, you know, tactics, if this were the military. But that's not the history of competent leadership.

Competent leadership is about strength. It's about vision. Do you need to have people around you that can make the trains run on time? Who can actually employ tactics, of course. But competent leadership is about strategy. Again, in the analogy of the United States military. Someone who understands America points in. in the right direction and has the strength to take on the crosswinds and the headwinds.

I ask you, the last three and a half years, do they illustrate that we're living with competent leadership in America? I think we have our answer, at least in Arizona and Georgia and North Carolina, and the latest poll from New York Times, Sienna. Let's break down who's running America. and the scandal that America has been sold out by the author of The Big Guy, how a president and his son sold out America. New York Post columnist Miranda Devine next on the Will Cain Show.

It is time to take the quiz. It's five questions in less than five minutes. We ask people on the streets of New York City to play along. Let's see how you do. Take the quiz every day at the quiz.com. Then come back here to see how you did. Thank you for taking the quiz. You people are mean.

Just plain mean, Mike the naked Bigfoot says on Twitter, sitting in a hospital bed watching Fox and Friends weekend, when out of nowhere I'm subjected to seeing Will Kane prancing across the screen doing his disturbing version of a line dance. Why does Pete Hexeth let him do this? I'd ask the nurse to give me nausea meds. I'm sorry for your health, Mike. DTB Esquire says

Freaking Awful Will and Ed Brett on Twitter says You have to learn how to line dance You cannot let Heg Seth win Well congratulations Pete You're the best line dancer It's the Will Kane show streaming live

how a president and his son sold out America, and she's the author of a previous bestseller, Laptop from Hell. She's a columnist at The New York Post and a Fox News contributor, Miranda Devine on The Will King Show. Hi, Miranda, good morning. Hi, Will.

Thanks for having me. So let's start with something I was just talking about in the idea of competent leadership in America. Before we even talk about who we might pick as our president in 2024, let's talk about who's running America today. Joe Biden's still around. We see him here in the United.

there, but it's certainly been reduced. I even noticed Miranda, I think he stopped with the cosmetic upkeep. I mean, I'm not trying to be petty. I think he's like all of a sudden the Botox is not present anymore. So it's almost like he's mailing it in. It's like Friday, you know, and he's going to go and finish the week in his pajamas. But his wife is in cabinet meetings, and we can see what's happening on the world stage. Who's running America? Look, I mean, it is a joke. I mean, you would laugh if it weren't so serious because it's actually incredibly important, you know, who has the nuclear football? Who's going to be waking up at 3 o'clock in the morning if there's some emergency? It's a really perilous time and people forget that we have four more months with

Joe Biden as president. And he has completely checked out, as you said, on Friday, who was there at the cabinet meeting, sitting at the head of the table. But Jill Biden, looking for all the world like she wanted to be president and she's giving a little homily to the assorted cabinet members who then felt obliged to applaud her when she finished. It is absolutely ridiculous. There is even a binder now that the White House is giving out that has the presidential seal and underneath it is Joe Biden's signature. Underneath that, never happened before is Jill Biden's signature. We had the other day, we had the quad leadership, which is a really important group of world leaders, leader of India, of Japan, of Australia. You're talking about

two billion people that they're in charge of. And they came to the United States for an annual meeting, which should have been held in Washington, D.C., like it was last time. Instead, they have to schlep down to Joe Biden's podont town of Wilmington and stay in a rundown hotel and basically have their meetings in his old high school. It's, it's, it's, it's, The reason is because Jill Biden was using the White House. So who's running it? Well, there are shadowy figures behind the scenes. Some people say it's Obama.

Some people are just saying it's just a selection of people from the blog, the CIA, the State Department. Who knows? They're getting what they want out of Joe Biden. They're just getting all their agenda, rubber stamped. And as we see from the world being on fire. You know, that meeting you talked about, well, they brought in the world leaders,

South, so it was another embarrassing moment for Joe Biden where he seemed to get lost again in his introduction of the Indian president and said, what's next? And he gets angry, what's next? And then it's like the Indian leader steps up to kind of go, I'm next. And what's noticeable about that

is, again, you know, I think a lot of this can be like, oh, you're picking on an old man. This is the leader of, or this is presumably the leader of the free world. And what I'll tell you today is what I was learned on Fox and Friends Weekend. The Indian press is talking about it. Like, they're very much talking about how big of an insult it was to India and this whole thing being a farce of American of leadership

in America. Look, Prime Minister Modi of India is incredibly popular back home. He has done a magnificent job. He was very close to Donald Trump. He's been extremely cordial with Joe Biden. But it was an insult to relegate him to Wilmington so that Jill Biden could have a party with the cast of the West Wing and have some teachers' fest on the South Lawn. It was an insult to them to make them go down there. And it doesn't matter that Joe Biden tried to dress it up by giving them a personal tour of his mansion. The Indian press saw it as an insult.

On top of that, this quad group is supposed to be about quelling China's aggression in the Indo-Pacific, which is out of control, and we're not talking about it. enough. And it's a really good way of trying to put them in check. And what did Joe Biden sidetrack them onto? Climate change. And then his pet agenda, which is cancer, the cancer moonshot. Of course, he talks about his son again. You know, there are plenty of other agencies and organizations that are set up to do cancer. It's not appropriate to have it with the quad. It is ridiculous to try and dilute what the quad is doing, which is really about China.

You know, I was just talking about this New York Times Siena poll that shows Donald Trump with a lead in Arizona, Georgia, and North Carolina. But what I found more fascinating than the current polling is the pulse of the American people, why they feel certain ways. And it shows there is a level of distrust towards Kamala Harris.

There's a level of distaste for the behavior of Donald Trump. There's a level of distrust when it comes to who Kamala Harris is. And one of the things that didn't surprise me, but I found fascinating, is there's also, we're talking about largely independent or undecided voters here, buy-in on the Donald Trump ideology of America first. Americans want American leadership to focus on America. They want it to be less externally focused. But, again, as I just pointed out, that's a privilege.

Like, you don't get to choose not to focus on the world. George W. Bush wanted to be the education president. He ends up because of circumstances, 9-11, having to focus his presidency elsewhere when it comes to terrorism. I bring all that up to say, we're sitting here today with, like, circumstances all around us. I mean, it's Ukraine, it's Hezbollah, it's Hamas, and as you point out, it's just like a ticking time bomb until it's China. And the next U.S. presidency is defined by circumstances, by foreign policy. policy. It's the primary job of the presidency. And for Joe Biden to not, I mean, he is, I will say, he's very focused on Ukraine, but to not handle these situations and focus on China. And for the American people decide if Kamala Harris is the right person to be that president when that happens. She can talk about joy, but odds are she or Donald Trump are going to be defined by something that happens beyond America's borders after 2024. Or maybe before, maybe even before this election. You are so right, Will. And we knew from Donald Trump's four years that he handled world affairs

in a masterful fashion. And he did that because people like Kim Jong-un, like Vladimir Putin and President Xi, they feared him and respected America. And Donald Trump was pretty aggressive with them, the Taliban leader. Remember, he showed him a photo of his house, a satellite photo and said, shame if something happened to that, don't you hurt a hair on the head of a single American? And that is exactly what happened. And so, you know, these are thugs and gangsters around the world. They don't respond to Anthony Blinken's sort of Parisian manners. They just laugh at that. Donald Trump knows how to handle these people. Kamala Harris obviously has no idea. And yet, Yesterday, we had 741 national security senior officials.

We've seen that before with the Dirty 51 letter. These are people from the military generals, the CIA, all those national security outfits. They all say that we need a really competent commander-in-chief and therefore we are endorsing Kamala Harris. what competence has she ever exhibited? She can't even talk properly. This is a very dangerous situation. And what that tells you is that the very same people that put their thumb on the scale to try to,

well, to successfully ensure that Joe Biden won the 2020 election and lied about the letter or the Hunter Biden laptop in our story, those same people are doing the same thing for Kamala Harris. They are terrified of Donald Trump, not because of anything that Donald Trump does on the international stage, because everything he's done has been perfect. Think the Abraham Accords. But no, they're afraid of him because they know that he is going to take a hatchet to their power bases,

basically these corrupt agencies, the CIA, the FBI, the blob. So one more question on Donald Trump and his style of leadership before we move on to the big guy. Donald Trump gave an interview, a fascinating interview, to former CBS news reporter Cheryl Atkinson this weekend. In that interview, he said that should he lose the race for presidency, he won't run in 2028, at which point he would be 82 years old. But it's interesting. Donald Trump, that answer surprised me. I actually didn't know that he would say that. So good for her in asking that question.

But there were also other parts that interview. And people are highlighting, he seemed to backtrack Miranda on. deportations. He talked about all it takes is one bad image of putting a mother with children onto a bus and you'll be vilified. And it looked like he's walking back what he's talked about in the past of mass deportations. And the reason I bring that up is he's also talked pretty strongly about cutting, as you point out, the federal bureaucracy, which would include the intelligence agencies, at least to some extent, CIA, FBI, so forth. And that being the source of their antipathy towards Trump. But do you think, like, I don't know if his talk on deportation is more talk

than intent for action, but do you think he really will fulfill this talk of cutting back the bureaucracy? Certainly, by the way, Miranda, they seem to believe it. That's why they oppose him so strongly. But should we believe he'll actually accomplish cutting back federal government bureaucracy, D.C.? Look, I think it's not so much about cutting back. Look, I think it's not so much about cutting back these bureaucracies, but cleaning them out and repurposing them. I think the reason that these, whether they're rogue actors or the entire culture is so opposed to Donald Trump, is not really about cutbacks. It's because their agenda is really for war and more war. They want to, they want regime change in Russia, for instance. This is not a sensible thing to do,

and it's not something that Donald Trump wants. Donald Trump is about people. through strength. And he exhibited that when he was president with, as I mentioned, the Abraham Accords, which, I mean, Jake Sullivan just before October 7 was boasting about peace in the Middle East that had broken out as a result of the Abraham Accords he didn't mention. And, you know, if Donald Trump had won the 2020 election, as he ought to have, that would have expanded to include Saudi Arabia and so on. Vladimir Putin only has invaded Ukraine during the Obama administration and the Biden administration. He sat pretty when Donald Trump was in charge because he knew that there would be consequences. It was the same with Iran. Donald Trump had

basically bankrupted Iran and they were really on the back foot and he'd killed off a couple of their top generals. So I think, you know, that's why the CIA, FBI, the blob, hates Donald Trump so much because he's setting his own agenda based on the facts in front of him and just common sense logic of a New York property developer who just sees a problem and fixes it. He's not caught up with their grand schemes about, you know, energy dominance in Europe or whatever it is. He wants to drill baby drill so that there is plenty of energy to share with the rest of the world, which is exactly the opposite of what the Democrats want. And the blob has this fantasy that somehow Ukraine is going to, you know, provide all the energy

needs for the rest of Europe. That's physically impossible. Russia has way more energy reserves than Ukraine. And so I don't know what their ultimate goal is, but they seem to be completely unhinged. And that's why they hate Donald Trump. And look, with his doing well now in the polls, and you know, they're already having been two assassination attempts and talk that there were five plots or five groups basically guided by Iran wanting to assassinate Donald Trump. You know, we are relying on those same agencies

to really alert us and keep Donald Trump safe. Miranda, I just, it occurred to me when I was listening to you talk. I've thought about this before with Douglas Murray. If that matter, Pierce Morgan, like you have somebody come over from the UK and they achieve a level of media stardom in America. And I always wondered like, is there some American over there in the UK who's like doing really good with his American accent in

British media? And then listening to your Australian accent, I'm like, I wonder and I know you've lived in America for a while. Like, is there some American over there just who's a voice of sanity and success in Australia? Or is it all Australian voices on Australian media? Do you know?

Is there like an American accent really breaking through in Australia? Oh, yeah. There are quite a few. I mean, one of them is my friend James Morrow, who writes for the Daily Telegraph and is on Sky News, has a couple of shows there. And he does the America report on Friday nights. And he's a sensible, he's a New Yorker, but a sensible conservative New Yorker. And he's always putting things right. Because unfortunately, the news that Australia and, you know, the rest of the world gets about America is filtered through the New York Times sort of, pay, you know, like view. It's the New York Times view. And so they get a really absurd kind of twisted view of Donald Trump, for instance. And so it's great having Americans who actually understand the lie of the land and who can set Australian straight. And he has a huge following. Oh, maybe that's going to be the next chapter for me. Go to Australia. Yeah. And do this with my American accent. You have a huge following there, actually.

oh that's wonderful that's awesome to hear i did that's like i saw this documentary about this uh like musician one time i think he was from south africa and he got famous like in america but not in south africa and he never knew this was sort of before the interview you know he never knew hey i've got this huge following somewhere that and he was kind of destitute in south africa maybe that's my story huge a big big in australia speaking of big okay big guy uh it's your new book and you and i've talked a lot on fox on on on the will can about you're reporting on this throughout the process of the story now you have a book out the big guy how a president and his son sold out america i'm sure you take this story from a to z

but what is it that we should know that's new we're going to learn in this book about joe biden hunter biden and all of the influence peddling schemes from ukraine to china well as you mentioned i already really covered um a lot of the influence peddling the corruption in laptop from hell which came from a lot of it from the contents of hunter biden's abandoned laptop. This next book I thought needed to be written because it's about the cover-up, which first became evident in just before the 2020 election when, as I mentioned, that Dirty 51 letter from mostly CIA, 42 former CIA officials and 51 altogether, who lied and said that the laptop in our stories of Russian disinformation. But there was also, our story in New York Post,

the first story on October 14, 2020, was immediately. censored within a couple of hours by big tech, by Facebook and Twitter. And, you know, they said, Twitter said it violated their hacked materials policy. And we were a little bit sort of befuddled by that. Could not understand what was going on. Well, as we found out later, the FBI had been having meetings with these big tech companies in the weeks leading up to the election. And they had warned them about a story hack and leak dump from Russia that looked exactly like our story that likely would happen in October, likely involving Hunter Biden. So they knew they recognized immediately our story. And we know that from, you know, a sworn declaration by

Twitter chief censor in another lawsuit. But since then we found out even more. I mean, the Twitter files gave us a glimpse into the real nefarious FBI operation, which included having the FBI's former Chief Counsel James Baker, who was installed in at Twitter. just months before the 2020 election and he was instrumental in ensuring that our story was censored. The same thing happened over at Facebook. There was a woman, a professor, Patricia Carlin, Pamela Carlin, who was installed there to have a similar role as James Baker at Facebook after the election she left and took a plum job with the DOJ. So, you know, there was a lot of, you know, very careful,

curating of information to ensure that this story, very damaging story about Joe Biden, that he was meeting with Hunter Biden's Ukrainian business partners in Washington when he was vice president and that he was called the big guy by Hunter Biden's business partners and was involved in the influence peddling scheme. That would have been diabolical for him three weeks before the 2020 election. And we know from polls that it probably would have shifted the outcome. But he got away with it because thanks to those, the CIA dirty tricksters. And then, you know, then delving more into it, we have situations where the Hunter Biden investigation in Delaware that should have been wrapped up within a year, two years max, certainly before the 22 midterms,

that was hobbled and interfered with, including by the CIA, which reached out and told the prosecutors that they were not allowed to interview a witness. very important witness, Kevin Morris, Hunter Biden's sugar brother, the mysterious Hollywood lawyer, who bankrolled to the tune of at least $6 million, his living expenses, but also paid back the IRS on his behalf, lend him the money, we're told. So there's the CIA again. We also know that the CIA reached out to Devin Archer. I mean, this is sort of not widely known at all. It's, again, a scoop for the book. Asked Devin Archer when he was Hunter Biden's, business partner if he would work with them and basically spy for them. He, after two entreaties,

said no. But Hunter Biden, before he joined the Ukrainian energy firm Burisma, earning a million dollars a year, he was placed on the chairman's advisory council of a CIA cutout, part of the National Endowment for Democracy. So we can see the shadowy hand of the CIA and other agencies, national security agencies protecting the Bidens as they gathered millions of dollars from Russia, China, Ukraine, Afghanistan, but particularly China. And you now have a president sitting in the White House who has gone soft on China. And, you know, the logical conclusion is that he's compromised by China. Do you get the sense heading now a little over a month into the election that it has changed. Obviously, the ownership of X by Elon Musk changes that platform.

Mark Zuckerberg, to your point, was pretty honest about the way they, he says, the way they were manipulated by the intelligence agencies to censor your story and that they would not do it again. Do you get the sense that that's true? Would Facebook? Certainly I don't trust that the mainstream media would treat it any differently. But the technology platforms, do you think if something happens in the next month, they will behave differently than they did in 2020? Look, I think certainly Elon Musk is doing his best to keep ex-honest and not have that kind of censorship that went on in 2020 and certainly it's a hell of a lot better than it was.

It's really a venue for free expression. But even, you know, I'm not sure he has total control of it. I'm not so sure about Facebook. I think Mark Zuckerberg was completely weak. It's good that he, he's. sort of fessed up eventually. I guess Elon Musk's courage encouraged him slightly, but he's shown himself to be a total coward and to capitulate. And to be fair, the Democrats put enormous pressure on Zuckerberg, threatened to break up Facebook and basically destroy him

financially. They're doing the same thing with Elon Musk. And remember, with all of Elon Musk's companies, he's the most subsidized businessman in the country. So he's exquisitely vulnerable. right and i do believe um over the weekend aOC gave new voice to this idea of you're going to have to you tech companies are going to have to triple down on on censoring misinformation all right the book is how is the big guy how a president and his son sold out america it's it's on sale now miranda i'm sure you can get it wherever uh tomorrow all right goes on sale tomorrow so get that if you enjoyed laptop from hell you're going to love this one as well and you can always check Miranda in the New York Post.

We appreciate the time. As always, Miranda, love having you on the Will Cain show. Terrific. Thanks, Will. All right. Go get the big guy. How a president and his son sold out America. Donald Trump, as I mentioned, told Cheryl Atkinson, formerly of CBS News, now really good independent reporter, that if he loses, he wouldn't run again in 2028.

So who would run as a Republican for president in 2020? Well, many are saying the man who is next exclusively on the Wilcane show. Governor Glenn Yonkin of Virginia coming up.

And I don't know who did this. This is up on my Instagram. It's up on the monitors here in the studios of the Will Kane show. Yesterday I'm Fox and Friends. Rachel Campos Duffy shared a portrait, a painting that Dana Perino's sister did of Sean Duffy and her daughter, Valentina. How beautiful it was. And Pete Hegseth said,

I want one like that of me and Will. So there's the internet. It makes one for Pete of him holding a little baby, Will. Little baby body, will head. What's wrong with you, people? What are you doing here? How, how, how, he wins at line dancing,

and I'm his child, I'm his baby? There's just no end to the indignity. And as I said, it wasn't limited to studios in New York. It came down to Dallas. What happened to the Dallas Cowboys? We're going to answer that question. But first, if Donald Trump doesn't run for president in 2028, he might see the governor of Virginia, Glenn Yonkin, run as a Republican.

Well, on Friday, I went to Virginia Beach. I went to a diner, and I met the governor. I'd never met the governor before. Now, I'd heard great things about him, and I know a lot of people that really like Glenn Yonkin. Also, I really liked Virginia Beach. Beautiful. And I fell down the internet rabbit hole,

learning my history. Fascinating. I didn't realize Jamestown, you know, the first colony in America. It's right there, you know? It's not far. It's in that tidewater region. I don't know.

I just started, like, everything. Newport News, Michael Vic. Hampton, Alan Iverson, started just falling down the rabbit hole of learning everything about that region. like a million too you include all the towns Virginia Beach

Norfolk all the towns I just mentioned but then when I was reading about James Town I learned about the lost colony of Roanoke apparently this is the first English white European colony on the North American continent

this is Sir Walter Raleigh who was buddies with the Queen he got the grant and I believe it was in it was in the Outerbank Island Roanoke They dropped off a colony of like 100 men And

Like Jamestown, they suffered for food They just couldn't get it They were in swampy land They didn't know how to farm the area I mean Jamestown Like almost everybody died 80% died But Roanoke

We don't know 100% because they just disappeared And no one ever talks about it The Lost Colony of Roanoke And it's a mystery to this day What happened to them Where they wiped out by the Indians They get in a battle

They lose Did they integrate into the Indian population after they thought supply ships were coming back? They hadn't seen a European ship in, I don't know how long, a year. Did they just go, we need to eat? So we're becoming members of these tribes. It presumably would have accepted them in. And there's even been some DNA. Like, there are reports of generations of Indians in these tribes that had blonde hair, blue eyes since then.

But no one knows. No one knows. Like the famous thing about the lost colony of Roanoke is Virginia. dare is the first white European born in this continent. She was born in that colony. And you'll find Virginia Dare's name everywhere. I mean, there's monuments and things named after her. If you ever come across that, now you'll know why. It's connected to the lost colony of Roanoke. Anyway, I found on that rabbit hole. I love America. I love the little history, the regional history, learning about things we should know anyway. And then I sat down with the governor of Virginia, Glenn Youngton.

in our interview on Foxenvers, we talked a lot about policy, why it is, you know, he managed to get elected when that state has gone increasingly blue, although there's a new poll suggesting Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are in a dead heat in Virginia. And if that's the case, that's bad news for Kamala Harris. But I also just wanted to get to know him, like who is this guy as a personality. And so that was sort of the focus of my interview with him that's exclusive here to the Will Kane show, Governor Glenn Yonkin. Governor Glenn Yonkin, you know, people listening are watching might not know this, but we have something in common. Are both of our wives, or yes, Texans, but they both went to Arrowhead Camp in Texas, and this is a big deal, which you're actually teaching me about. Yes, so, first of all, camp in Texas is something that nobody can understand until you actually marry a Texan who went to camp. But it's all about sisterhood for the ladies. And the camaraderie and the values that are taught at these camps, I think, are at the heart of America. And when you stand there and watch campers with their hands over their hearts, reciting the Pledge of Allegiance and understanding that there is something more important than ourselves, our country, and our faith, you understand why camp is so important to Texas. That's a beautiful way to put it.

The more superficial way was my wife said, tell the governor that I was big chief of the Pawnee tribe. He'll understand that that's a very big deal. It's a big deal. And if my wife were here, who she's out working today as first lady, she was big chief of the Pawnee's as well. And so there's a unique connection there. And I've always been very proud of the fact that she started leading when she was even at camp. Okay. I want to ask you about this.

I want to ask you about your time at Rice. You're officially listed at 6.7, something someone or somewhere, that's what I read, 6.5 now. I'm 6.6. And that's a big, there's a, at one point, one of your colleagues came in and actually took out a tape measure. And I'm 66. But what's happened, of course, is that over the years of having four kids and getting married and a 30-year business career and now the most fabulous privilege in the world is served Virginians as governor, I might have lost an inch along the way.

Look, I'm not. I'm not being subjective or relaying, I think, exclusive opinion to fans at Fox. Everybody thinks you're doing a good job here. A great job as Governor of Virginia. But back to Texas for one more moment, Rice. I read 87 career points. So I want to know the high water mark. What game was the high watermark?

who was the opponent, and what did you score? So I think I had nine in one game, and I think it was against the Baylor Bears, not that we remember these things, but when you score so few points when you're in college, you always remember the high watermark. But I have to say that the high watermark for me really was when we beat the University of Texas,

and we beat them twice, and it was hugely encouraging, and I have to say the day after we beat them in Austin, they fired their coach. There we go. Enough. By the way, your nine-point high water mark is much higher than my water polo goal scoring record, which is one, in four years. Not in a game, in four years.

So last question for you, Governor. As I mentioned, people have talked about this. You're doing a great job. You've raised your profile, obviously hugely on the national stage. That leads to this question. After Governor of Virginia, perhaps in 2028, what are your aspirations? Are they to be President of the United States? My aspirations are to be the very best governor I can possibly be.

I have about a year and a half left in my term. It takes me through January 2026, and I want to make sure that Virginia continues to be the best state in America. CNBC rated us the top state for business this year. We've had record job growth. We've had a huge decline in crime because we've focused on it. Our test scores are coming up in all of our schools, and we have a lot more work to do. And so I'm focused on finishing this great privilege of serving as governor of Virginia and making sure that Virginia continues to be the very best place to live, work and raise a family.

I appreciate the time today. Thank you so much. There you go. Thank you. There's Governor Glenn Yonkin of Virginia. So just a couple, a little backstory, and maybe I didn't make it clear enough guys in New York in the interview. So Yonkin played basketball at Rice. He was on the team. I asked him what position he played. He said bench and he held it down. He's self-deprecating. It's good. It's good. He played basketball at Rice. He clearly knew I was a longhorn, so he'd like to rub that in my face a little bit. We have the connection with our wives. They don't know each other, but they're very proud of going to this camp in Texas.

But people are excited about him. You, I mean, your nickname is establishment, but Young Establishment, you're one of the guys. You're really, really jazzed for Glenn Yonkin. Yeah, I mean, I think that's where the nickname came from was after I met him one weekend and then wouldn't shut up about him for a couple weeks. But I think he's the kind of guy. a lot of what people like about you love glen yonkin more than patrick you love glen yonkin more than patrick loves james winston yes totally it's like sometimes you know and with i don't know

if patrick's met james but when you meet your hero sometimes you're let down i was i was only up after meeting glenn i could never be let down by james so um i was impressed i was i hadn't met him but everybody's talked up yonkin to me everybody i mean you guys and some friends i have in texas I will say, okay, so, you know, in the beginning of today's show, we talked about competent leadership. And he does check the boxes. Like, Yonkin, from what I've read, is worth half a billion dollars. He was the Carlisle Group. He's done big deals.

And he clearly is competent in tactics. The question is, what is his strength in leadership? Now, he has obviously exhibited that in Virginia. I mean, it's a purple state-ish. And, you know, running on cultural issues in 2021. education, you know, CRT, and these kind of things, he won. He won over them. And so people are saying, well, he's the guy who manages to merge sort of tactics and competence and maybe even establishment with an understanding of the vision of MAGA. Now, I will say there are

skeptics, I won't name them, but I do know skeptics as well who feel like, well, that's a return he represents a return to republicanism before trump i think we that doesn't concern we'd have to find out where he stands on foreign policy i don't know if he's if if he's addressed that or if it's been too publicly talked about um he's i mean his his job is a hundred percent domestic so i don't know if we'll hear that until the primary next cycle but in terms of old versus new republican party that the biggest shift is kind of where where they stand on uh foreign war the Middle East, Ukraine, et cetera. Real quick, tinfoil, Pat.

You're going to be a guy who's probably the last jump on the young wagon, I would guess. Or you like him. You like the governor. I don't really have an opinion either way. I am concerned that we would slip back into neoconservatism, you know, foreign policy. There's a concern of that. Well, the truth is most people don't know who he is yet. And that's like the same thing with Kamala Harris.

It just shows the power of name ID and getting yourself known. and he still has a long way to go and getting himself known. But the thing that I'm interested in is if not him, then who, right? Like, come 2028, I don't know. Like where, Ron DeSantis, Glenn Yonkin, Vivek, Grandma Swami, I don't know. It'll be a fascinating conversation and not one we have to have yet because we're focused on 2024. I mentioned humiliation didn't stop in New York City came down to Dallas. The Dallas Cowboys were absolutely atrocious against the Baltimore Ravens.

Just destroyed. And it's embarrassing. It's embarrassing on multiple levels. And a late comeback in the fourth quarter of whatever, it ended up being 19 points. Gives you a little reason to hope, but it shouldn't. Not until this right now feels, and I don't know, look, the San Francisco 49ers are one and two. So we've got to be real. Same record as the Cowboys.

The Baltimore Ravens, for that matter, are one and two. So the season's not over, but it's the way in which they are losing that just makes you wonder. When you can't stop the run like this, that's not the kind of thing you fix in the middle. of a season. And I don't know, man. This could be a long year. And I'm 0-3 in fantasy in the Will Kane Show league, so this could be a long year all around. Real quick, Tinfoil. Oh, I completely agree with you because Florida State can't stop the run and we're 0-1-3. So, I mean, or one in three now. So it's like, you can't fix it in the middle of the season. It's, you're just hoping, you're just praying.

All right, we'll break down that because I had another good week in Will versus the experts. We'll break down football all this week on the Will Kane Show. show. But that's going to do it for us today now. I will see you again. Same time, same place tomorrow on the Will Cane show.
