So once the interview got going, Trump laying out his vision for America and calling out Kamala Harris. | |
Madeline Rivera has the details. | ||

|
Madeline. | |
Good morning. | ||
After struggling with technical issues that delayed their interview by 40 minutes, former President Trump and Elon Musk delve into a roughly two-hour-long conversation. | ||
Trump began by talking about his assassination attempt last month, saying he plans to return to Butler, Pennsylvania. | ||
Listen. | ||
We're going back to Butler. | ||
And we're going to go back in October. | ||
These are incredible people. | ||
Like the three that, in the case of Corey Kild and the other two, the families, I get to know them a little bit. | ||
The families are great, but we're going back to Butler. | ||
And he touched on inflation top of mind for voters. | ||
The thing that they really is making them angry is what Kamala and Biden have allowed to happen to the economy. | ||
It's a disaster with inflation. | ||
The inflation, it doesn't matter what you make. | ||
The inflation is eating you alive. | ||
Trump also took aim at Vice President Kamala Harris for not doing an extended interview so far, more than three weeks after launching to the top of the Democratic ticket. | ||
Do you think Biden could do this interview? | ||
Do you think that Kamala could do this interview? | ||
They would take a pass on you? | ||
It's pretty sad when you think that somebody that does this for a living can't answer a question or is afraid to do an interview. | ||
Musk invited Harris to speak with him on X2, something she's unlikely to do, given her criticism of Trump and Musk as, quote, self-obsessed rich guys who cannot run a live stream in the year 2024, unquote. | ||
Speaking of technical issues, the FBI says it is probing an earlier hack of the Trump campaign and an attempted hack of the Biden-Harris campaign. | ||
It's like a grinder ad on the moon for Donald Trump and Elon Musk. | ||
Ah, good morning. | ||
Good morning to the brigade. | ||
How you doing this morning, ladies and gentlemen? | ||
Whoa, the internet is a battlefield and Donald Trump is winning an army of supporters and a battalion of supporters. | ||
Charging into a space last night and making it the most listened to interview maybe in history. | ||
We'll go ahead and check the scoreboard. | ||
A billion views? | ||
Oh yeah, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
Elon Musk's conversation with Donald Trump goes viral. | ||
Even though they tried to attack and take the space down, ladies and gentlemen, the Streisand effect is real, and we are really here for it. | ||
We were live last night listening in. | ||
It was very exciting. | ||
We'll bring you all of the important updates about that today, Tuesday, August 13th, 2024. | ||
Also, Donald Trump sues the DOJ over the Mar-a-Lago raid, as he right ought to do. | ||
The great executive producer of this program, ALX, the Lord, joins the show. | ||
ALX, of course, famous for being one of the icons on President Trump's phone last night as he talked with Elon Musk, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
You're going to have to hear from the man who was brought back to X the same night as Donald Trump. | ||
And the singularity continues. | ||
My name is Benny Johnson, and this is The Benny Show. | ||
So I want to talk to you about something personal here. | ||
We never, um... | ||
I have three kids. | ||
I never talk really about their health or anything having to do with them getting sick or any problems. | ||
I mean, those are the kind of things you keep to yourself, right, as a parent. | ||
However, the reason there was no show yesterday and over the entire weekend, and, you know, sometimes you hear from us on the weekends, we're going live, we're flowing, the energy is kinetic, we're absorbing it, you know, we... | ||
We were not online this weekend. | ||
I want to explain what happened and I want to show you a little image here. | ||
My son, he's 11 months old. | ||
We're not trying to overshare. | ||
I tell you these things. | ||
I want to say this again. | ||
I tell you these things because my wife, who is a critical care trauma nurse, she and I decided that this was an important message to send out one to parents. | ||
But then also, you know, I'm a Christian. | ||
I'm just a simple Christian, and I believe in the power of faith. | ||
And those two things united have fused together and have sort of encouraged me to explain very briefly to you why we were offline and what happened to our family over the weekend. | ||
My son is 11 months old, as I said. | ||
He's very active, and he gets into everything. | ||
And that's okay. | ||
You know, that's the way it goes. | ||
The body was designed, right, for kids to sort of be munching on things. | ||
That's how you explore, right? | ||
You sort of take a bite out of virtually everything. | ||
A fistful of dirt or a toy or whatever. | ||
My son is also very, very healthy, and we heard him begin to wheeze over the weekend, and he was having trouble breathing. | ||
Now, this could be just like a flu, right? | ||
Or, you know, the child, children, it's called croup. | ||
This could be like something that is just a virus. | ||
It's flu season, right? | ||
It's middle of August, right? | ||
Getting into the fall. | ||
So we thought that would be, that was perhaps what it was. | ||
We went to emergency care, and my wife sort of monitored him over the next 24 hours on Saturday through Sunday. | ||
There were no symptoms, though, and my wife sort of... | ||
I realized on a FaceTime call with an emergency doctor, this seems like a foreign object that he's got stuck in his lung. | ||
We go to the emergency room and we do x-rays. | ||
Gotta tell you, young man, if you get a chance, go ahead and marry a nurse, all right? | ||
If you get a chance, marry a nurse because it will make parenting so much easier. | ||
If you can, it will make parenting so much easier for you. | ||
Here's what happened. | ||
The x-rays can't show you something that's not metal. | ||
And so we get the x-rays done. | ||
Emergency ER doctor says, we don't really know what's in there. | ||
But my nurse wife said, you know, through my intuition, and I just know, you know, moms just know, right? | ||
And they just like lock in. | ||
And if you're a mom, you know this. | ||
We all have mothers. | ||
You know this. | ||
Moms just know, right? | ||
It's the Holy Spirit. | ||
That's literally the power and energy of the Holy Spirit. | ||
And so my wife just locked in. | ||
She's like, no, there's something in there. | ||
I know my kid, and I know that there's something in there, even though you can't see on the x-ray what it was. | ||
So we go, and the doctor goes ahead and looks. | ||
This is a procedure. | ||
This procedure requires... | ||
Them to take the child and, you know, you get an IV, you have to go under general anesthesia and, you know, what that does is it is, well, traumatic. | ||
You hand your child over to strangers and your child is, you know, crying and it's horrifying. | ||
It's a horrible age because they can't speak to you. | ||
You can't calm them down with words. | ||
You can't explain what's going on. | ||
It's just awful. | ||
Doctor comes back and after 90 excruciating minutes tells us, you know what? | ||
We got problems. | ||
There's a crayon. | ||
Stuck. | ||
Way up in his left bronchle. | ||
Left bronchi. | ||
I'm no physician, right? | ||
Like, way up in his lung. | ||
Left side, which is hard to get into. | ||
And he must have swallowed a crayon and inhaled, literally inhaled a crayon. | ||
And it... | ||
It is stuck there, and because it's a crayon, it's melting, and we can't pull it out like we would a penny or like a Monopoly piece or something. | ||
And so we're going to have to wait for a specialist to come in tomorrow and see if they can get it. | ||
So we wait. | ||
And you spend that night standing over your child's crib, and you're just praying. | ||
And you just, you have nothing else. | ||
You won't sleep, you can't sleep. | ||
Your kid's hooked up to the monitor. | ||
And you just pray over your child's crib. | ||
And it's tough. | ||
It's tough to see your kid looking like this, you know, in bed, hooked up to the machines, especially when he's so young. | ||
So, we spend that sleepless night in the hospital, and we wait for Monday morning. | ||
This is, of course, why we didn't have a show yesterday. | ||
And the specialist is called a pulmonologist. | ||
He's a child. | ||
He's a pulmonologist and he specializes in children. | ||
He comes in and he says, you know what? | ||
I have faith that I can try again and we can do it. | ||
Again, it's excruciating for the child to go under, you know, the anesthesia and, you know, and to be handed over to an operating room. | ||
And so we're, you know, so we go back in. | ||
And let the, you know, again, you hand your child over to near strangers, right? | ||
And you just pray. | ||
And that's all you have. | ||
That's all you have is your faith in God. | ||
That's it. | ||
That's it. | ||
Like, I love you. | ||
I love this team. | ||
I love the movement that we're building. | ||
You know, you understand, like, this is all for our children. | ||
Like, together. | ||
Do you have kids? | ||
Do you want kids someday? | ||
Like, that's your legacy. | ||
You know, that's your legacy in this life. | ||
And you end up doing everything for your children when you have them. | ||
And not all the king's horses and all the king's men can stop a determined parent from doing everything they can to save their children. | ||
And the alternative, of course, to this is they do surgery and they take out part of my son's lung. | ||
If they can't get it, they have to go in there and remove the foreign body, you know, the piece of crayon. | ||
You know, we sent him into the operating room again for the second day. | ||
And there is no worse. | ||
There is just no worse pain than seeing your child suffering. | ||
Have you seen your child suffer? | ||
Have you seen small children in your life who maybe have had health problems? | ||
It is tough. | ||
It is so unbelievably tough. | ||
And you can't hand him over to man. | ||
You know, quite frankly, you won't. | ||
My wife wouldn't let go. | ||
My wife wouldn't let go of my son. | ||
When the doctors were coming to get him. | ||
There's like something beast mode. | ||
There's an animal mode that you get into. | ||
And you cling on for dear life. | ||
And so you hold on. | ||
But what you have to give is faith in God. | ||
I'm a Christian. | ||
So you have to practice your faith. | ||
Your faith without works, without practice, is nothing. | ||
So you have to just hand them over. | ||
Right? | ||
And you have to have faith, not in man, as we talk about on this program a lot, but faith in God. | ||
And so we do that once more. | ||
Our child goes in. | ||
And another excruciating, you know, you just stand there pacing. | ||
Yeah, staring at the board that shows the status of your kid in the operating room, you know, if they're in the operating room or if they're out. | ||
It goes on for another 90 minutes, which is not good, right? | ||
You know, quick procedures are good. | ||
Long procedures tend to not be good. | ||
And you just pray. | ||
And I'm telling you, here's what I want to tell you. | ||
Two quick things. | ||
One is a warning and one is a blessing. | ||
One, lock in with your faith. | ||
Because faith is real. | ||
Lock in with your faith and know that God is real, Christ is king, and that God listens. | ||
And you get what you seek and you will find. | ||
Knock and the door will be opened unto you. | ||
And so we knocked as hard as we could and we just prayed. | ||
And it's strange in life when you actually feel like the, when you feel a force stronger than like normal forces on earth and you feel like the spiritual force and it's peaceful and it's calming. | ||
Have you ever seen somebody in hospice, right? | ||
And they've lived a good life and they're like at peace and it's calming. | ||
Like the actual spirit of God is peaceful and not terrifying or horrifying or like put you in the ground. | ||
You're brought to peace. | ||
And I was brought to peace. | ||
And you just, you live your faith. | ||
Doctor comes out after 90 minutes. | ||
And he has with him a small vial. | ||
And inside that small vial is the crayon. | ||
And that little yellow crayon. | ||
One, if you're a parent, maybe rid your house of crayons. | ||
I'm not. | ||
I think I'm going to be anti-crayon from now on. | ||
Not like a thing that's going to be a market, not a thing that we're going to talk about often on this program, but holy smokes, go follow my wife, at Nurse Kate, on Instagram. | ||
She's going to go in on these crayons. | ||
They just get crumbled up. | ||
Most houses have crayons, and really the kids can quite get hurt. | ||
And now we're receiving all these messages from other parents about this kind of stuff. | ||
But they got it all out. | ||
And the doctor said he was lucky. | ||
No, I said this was a miracle. | ||
I hugged the man. | ||
We broke down in real tears. | ||
Real tears, both of us, my wife and I, just weeping. | ||
And you can see here my son recovering in my arms. | ||
And this is the best feeling. | ||
You know, it's the best feeling on earth. | ||
So there it is, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
This is why we were offline. | ||
I wanted to share this with you again. | ||
To tell you that, like, what we taught, we always do a verse of the day here. | ||
This is us living out our faith. | ||
And this is us witnessing a miracle. | ||
The end. | ||
The end. | ||
I'll say it, and I'm not going to apologize for it. | ||
It's just a miracle what my family just went through. | ||
It's a miracle. | ||
They should have never been able to get that crayon. | ||
They should have had to take out part of my kid's lung, maybe affect him for the rest of his life. | ||
And there's a lot of other very scary complications that happen when they have to do those kind of surgeries to little children. | ||
But instead, God saved my son. | ||
Instead, I believe that Jesus Christ, who came to this earth and who healed as a matter of his actions on this earth. | ||
So you read the New Testament. | ||
Christ is the healer. | ||
What does he do? | ||
Every single line and verse. | ||
He's healing people. | ||
He's healing because that's actually... | ||
That's actually how you witness, right? | ||
Like, in this broken world, you provide healing. | ||
You provide laughter. | ||
You provide joy again. | ||
You provide, like, the ability to, like, bounce up and back. | ||
And then that, the worst feeling is seeing your sick child in the, the worst feeling is seeing your sick child inside of the hospital. | ||
The best feeling is hearing from a doctor that they're going to be okay. | ||
We got it. | ||
The pulmonologist worked for 90 straight minutes. | ||
He came out. | ||
He was profusely sweating. | ||
His hands, he said, were aching. | ||
But they were able to use every tool and every skill. | ||
And then, miraculously, the crayon started to move. | ||
And now it sits in a little bottle in my home. | ||
And I'm going to put it in a shadow box. | ||
And it's going to, like, I'm going to mount it on the wall. | ||
I'm going to dip it in lacquer. | ||
We're going to hang. | ||
Hang it right on the wall. | ||
Right up there. | ||
It's going to sit in my house. | ||
People are going to go by. | ||
What's that gross bottle? | ||
Shut up! | ||
That's the miracle. | ||
That's like an artifact from the Crusades for me. | ||
And it's like a physical manifestation miracle. | ||
We say often that we live in heightened spiritual times here. | ||
And final, you know, final little shout-out here. | ||
I want you to... | ||
One is marry a good woman. | ||
My wife is a nurse, but... | ||
You know, a good woman is the greatest blessing in life. | ||
And next comes kids, but you have to have the structure correct. | ||
Marry a woman who will stand by you when nobody else will. | ||
And a woman who loves her children and her family more than anything on this earth. | ||
And that's my wife, Nurse Kate. | ||
If you want to follow her, she has some great health advice if you're a young parent. | ||
Some stuff that we've learned the hard way. | ||
And then the final thing, I want to show you the last slide here, which is my son literally doing a dance as they kick him out of the hospital. | ||
As we get discharged, my son doing his dance moves. | ||
He's got moves like his dad. | ||
Yeah, definitely. | ||
He's got moves like his dad. | ||
This is... | ||
unidentified
|
Yep, that's it. | |
That's the moves, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
This is a family. | ||
I consider you our family. | ||
This is our digital family. | ||
And so, you know, there's a lot of people in the comment section that talk about their kids, their mom, their dad. | ||
And these are important. | ||
This is like the point, right? | ||
So watch out for crayons, parents. | ||
This is why we talk about this. | ||
Two. | ||
It's not just a Bible verse at the end of the show. | ||
We actually live this out. | ||
We actually live in the real world. | ||
Christ is actually king. | ||
And miracles are real. | ||
Miracles are real. | ||
And you should, like, find, you should, on your faith journey, you should find your faith. | ||
It will help you in times when everything seems lost. | ||
Because the next step was they were going to take a chunk of my kid's lung. | ||
And every doctor was saying they couldn't do anything about it. | ||
So miracles are real. | ||
So find your faith. | ||
Find your rock. | ||
Find a good woman. | ||
And then, you know, most importantly, live that out, you know? | ||
Like, living that out for us. | ||
Final thing, I know we've talked a little bit about this, but this is why we do the show. | ||
I mean, if you watch the show, we say this regularly, but let me just reemphasize this. | ||
It's for my kids, right? | ||
Like, we want to save this country. | ||
Do a news and politics show here. | ||
We happen to actually be the... | ||
Largest show in the news and politics category on YouTube last month. | ||
So apparently it's resonating. | ||
Apparently you agree with us that the motivation should be to save the damn country for our children. | ||
Like that should be the goal, right? | ||
Like what else is there in fact? | ||
Like don't leave your children a heaping pile of garbage to inherit. | ||
That is a poor generation. | ||
You become a poor generation. | ||
So we dig our heels into this blessed dirt in this great land and we fight for our kids. | ||
The end. | ||
That's it, right? | ||
So because of that, I felt the need to share this miracle with you, and I hope it uplifts you and get yellow crayons. | ||
Get yellow crayons out of your house. | ||
No yellow allowed in the Johnson household. | ||
We are banning yellow mustard. | ||
We're banning Big Bird. | ||
We're banning Pikachu. | ||
We're going to ban yellow corn. | ||
And yeah, no moss and yellow lights. | ||
Anyway, we are uplifted, and God is good, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
Okay, alright, here we go. | ||
No sleep, team no sleep, right? | ||
You spend a night in the hospital with your sick, you don't sleep, you don't sleep, but we are ready to rock this morning. | ||
Everyone is safe, just, everyone's safe, discharged at home, the girlies came back, my two daughters came back, they were all loving on Theodore this morning. | ||
And everyone is safe and happy and sound and in clean bills of health. | ||
All right? | ||
So family secure, ready to rock. | ||
And now we are back. | ||
Okay? | ||
Ladies and gentlemen, we are back. | ||
And we were back last night. | ||
You know, we were home last night. | ||
And my son slept for like 16 hours straight. | ||
He came in and slept. | ||
You know, he just went right to sleep and peacefully slept. | ||
So I said, you know, let's listen to this Elon Musk face last night. | ||
We were live and we did record. | ||
We've never seen anything like it. | ||
The entire world wanted to listen to Elon Musk and President Trump last night. | ||
It was so awesome. | ||
So awesome. | ||
Ladies and gentlemen, Elon Musk this morning said that maybe a billion people have seen this, have seen or listened to or gotten content from this interview, making it one of the broadest consumed interviews in human history. | ||
Arguably ever, combined views of the conversation with real Donald Trump's subsequent discussion by other accounts are now 1 billion. | ||
That's because we were streaming it, right? | ||
There were a bunch of other people streaming it. | ||
The actual X account saying that there were 73 million people who watched. | ||
Now, those are Super Bowl numbers, okay? | ||
Those aren't just like NFL Sunday numbers. | ||
Those are Super Bowl numbers for the entire country. | ||
73 million. | ||
That's every single cable TV network combined at the same time with all of their lineups watching at the same time. | ||
Don't even do half that. | ||
We know this because we worked for cable news for like three years. | ||
ALX and I both did. | ||
So it's wild. | ||
Trump's conversation on X has generated a total of 998 million views. | ||
Whoa! | ||
I mean, we know that. | ||
We had almost 100,000 people watching the channels, you know, multiple channels, last night as we were broadcasting this space. | ||
It was pretty awesome. | ||
All of the press this morning, all of the press this morning, ALX, you got like a, do we have like a good, do we have a good like haterade post on this? | ||
All of the media this morning are down bad. | ||
Dinosaur media, down bad. | ||
Dinosaur media, down bad. | ||
Why? | ||
I mean, they have to hate this. | ||
Because it means that they don't no longer get to be the middleman. | ||
Now, the corporate media is collapsing anyway. | ||
Part of that is, like, what we do here, right? | ||
People would rather get their information from independent creators. | ||
I got no strings to hold me down. | ||
We are authentic with our audience. | ||
We tell you about what's going on with our family. | ||
We're streaming, right? | ||
This is streaming. | ||
This is like a, you know, like last night we were streaming. | ||
Like, we were just chatting, you know? | ||
Like, this is the way people like to consume information and consume news, and we're winning. | ||
But every corporate media headline yesterday was talking about how the space got off to a rough start. | ||
Now, here's what happened, and if you were watching live, you noticed, because we were talking about it, what happened was the spaces couldn't grow capacity. | ||
People weren't allowed into the space. | ||
People couldn't log in. | ||
It took about 30 minutes to fix, and then millions of people were allowed in to listen to the space. | ||
That did delay the space by about 45 minutes. | ||
Delayed the space by about 45 minutes. | ||
And that's all you heard in the corporate media. | ||
So all the corporate media is like, there was a delay. | ||
You know what? | ||
Idiots. | ||
Okay, it's so disingenuous. | ||
I just got to speak from experience here because we did live TV. | ||
ALX and I had a live cable news program on Newsmax. | ||
No hate. | ||
No hate. | ||
Love Newsmax. | ||
I still have like wonderful... | ||
Anchors and family members over there. | ||
They're amazing. | ||
We love Newsmax. | ||
We decided to pivot and focus over here. | ||
Before that, we were closely with Tucker. | ||
We know live TV. | ||
And there are mistakes that are made every second of every day. | ||
On every show, there are major mistakes. | ||
Some of them are glossier. | ||
Some of them have bigger production capacity to smooth over the mistakes. | ||
But mistakes are made all the time. | ||
Dude, you remember when Sean Hannity was caught chiefing? | ||
When he had a vape pin in, they go to Sean Hannity. | ||
You gotta grab me that. | ||
They go to Sean Hannity, he's like sucking down a vape. | ||
And he throws his vape, he's like, oh, whoa, we're live! | ||
There's mistakes made all the time! | ||
Bill O 'Reilly, eff it, we'll do it live! | ||
Remember that? | ||
This happens all the time. | ||
So it's insane. | ||
Galaxy brain, brain rot. | ||
To be like, oh, Elon Musk, there was something difficult. | ||
For instance, on this program, there's always mistakes. | ||
There's always mistakes. | ||
We just went live at the RNC. | ||
We're just letting her rip, you know? | ||
Like, that's just how it goes. | ||
The media totally just focused on the fact that the space was delayed for a little bit as they were capacity building. | ||
Elon Musk said it was a cyber attack. | ||
Whatever. | ||
Whatever the reason was, this is the corporate media freaking out and screaming about it. | ||
Sean Hannity clip's amazing. | ||
If you haven't seen it, this is, like, one of the best. | ||
They come to Sean Hannity, he didn't know they were... | ||
He didn't know he was live! | ||
Right? | ||
Here we go. | ||
unidentified
|
Uh-oh. | |
Now we're on another day. | ||
I've been there! | ||
We've all been... | ||
Like, you've all been there, right? | ||
FaceTime! | ||
You ever accidentally FaceTime somebody? | ||
It's just the way it works, right? | ||
It's hilarious, actually. | ||
It's funny. | ||
And it leads into the authenticity. | ||
It's what I want to talk with ALX about. | ||
And I think we're going to book some other cool streamers that are friends of us for the show. | ||
But, you know, this is what authenticity is. | ||
I don't mean, like, I don't mean, like, bomb you guys with, like, you know, intimate stories about, you know, this is a news and politics show, but it's also a show about, like, us and while we're doing this stuff. | ||
And it's authentic. | ||
It's authentic. | ||
I want you to know these things about my life. | ||
It's authentic. | ||
That authenticity is actually, that is the fuel of the internet. | ||
Like when Donald Trump's dancing with Aiden Ross, I don't know if we have that clip. | ||
Yeah, sure as heck do. | ||
Like when Donald Trump's, like, give me that. | ||
When Donald Trump's going like this with Aiden Ross on a stream. | ||
Oh, it's not actually the dance. | ||
Yeah, okay. | ||
Do we have the dance? | ||
Or is it just the B-roll? | ||
Alright, that's fine. | ||
Either way, you guys saw this. | ||
Trump gets a Cybertruck. | ||
They play some tunes. | ||
Donald Trump does the dance. | ||
It's freaking awesome. | ||
And they were live the whole time. | ||
You don't know what's going to happen. | ||
It's great. | ||
These people, they're so dumb. | ||
It's why you're going out of business, dinosaur corporate media. | ||
You're going out of business. | ||
Your days are numbered. | ||
Your days are already done. | ||
You don't realize that your industry is already gone. | ||
Right? | ||
You're living in the vapors. | ||
Of what's left. | ||
It's very sad. | ||
You're living in the corpse of better people and better men who came before you and actually built the industry, did good reporting, did actual journalism, and now it's done. | ||
You're living in a husk. | ||
There it is. | ||
Okay, we pop it up. | ||
We do the dance. | ||
We do the dance. | ||
Come on. | ||
White Boy Summer. | ||
Here we go. | ||
White Boy Summer. | ||
That's right. | ||
White Boy Summer. | ||
Okay, I had to do the Theo dance. | ||
That's Theo dance. | ||
Okay, that's Johnson's dance. | ||
Ladies and gentlemen, anyway, it was so cool. | ||
And it was so awesome. | ||
And if you were actually listening to it, as hundreds of millions of people did, then you heard, like, really neat little behind-the-scenes, you know, like, the best way to describe it was, like, a conversation with Trump, like, talking with his buddy, Elon. | ||
Which is something that Elon said before. | ||
Elon said that Trump just calls me out of the blue. | ||
And is like, what's up? | ||
Forgive me. | ||
Sorry about that. | ||
I'm getting too excited here. | ||
This is, like, where Trump did the interview. | ||
Let's just play these clips back-to-back. | ||
Trump's just, like, chatting with Elon Musk. | ||
unidentified
|
Let's go. | |
Trump. | ||
unidentified
|
With an oil painting. | |
Well, I think we will. | ||
I'm pretty sure we will. | ||
And congratulations, because I see you broke every record in the book with so many millions of people, and it's an honor. | ||
We view that as an honor. | ||
Oh, yeah. | ||
Donald Trump's in there, the giant oil painting of himself, wearing a white V-neck sweater with a white, crispy white pants. | ||
Here's some close-up photos. | ||
I want to make sure that we are able to zoom in here and enhance. | ||
Come on, baby. | ||
unidentified
|
Let's go. | |
Zoom. | ||
Give me the zoom. | ||
Give me the enhance. | ||
Get me that zoom. | ||
All right. | ||
Show me. | ||
Show me. | ||
Let me see. | ||
There it is. | ||
Come on. | ||
unidentified
|
Zoom. | |
Enhance. | ||
Enhance. | ||
Can we get it? | ||
Give me that phone. | ||
Give me that phone. | ||
You know this is coming. | ||
Look at that. | ||
Right there. | ||
Look at that. | ||
Icon, right at the very top, right there. | ||
Our boy, ALX! | ||
You watch this program regularly. | ||
You know it's your boy, ALX. | ||
ALX, right up at the very top. | ||
Now, I don't really know how these avatars... | ||
I don't know how these avatars populate. | ||
I'm not exactly sure. | ||
I know that if you're a speaker, I don't think ALX was a speaker. | ||
But, you know, presumably, it's like the... | ||
Presumably, it's like, who's the... | ||
Dopest account that we can put up at the very tippy top, and that's ALX. | ||
Maybe Trump just like secretly low-key loves ALX's account. | ||
ALX confirmed Trump doesn't follow his account. | ||
Maybe that will happen soon. | ||
We're not exactly certain. | ||
Why not invite ALX onto the stream right now? | ||
Do we have the ALX update? | ||
Oh, yeah. | ||
Okay. | ||
All right, baby. | ||
We'll welcome ALX, the man who is at the top of Trump's Spaces feed, and we'll go through some of the best clips from yesterday. | ||
The ALX update right now. | ||
unidentified
|
The ALX update. | |
Come on! | ||
Come on! | ||
Right there. | ||
Okay, so Trump doesn't follow you. | ||
Do you know how the avatars are populated? | ||
He must just leave your account. | ||
Yeah, I'm not sure if it's just like interactions. | ||
Usually if you do follow people, though, they do populate Norton like near the... | ||
But I think it might also be mutuals with the speakers. | ||
So the fact that Elon follows me might give me more preference over some users. | ||
But it's different on everybody's phone, though, because I've seen it differently on different screenshots. | ||
So who knows? | ||
Yo, it was awesome last night. | ||
I mean, I don't understand. | ||
There's been a lot of times when I don't quite understand the ecosystem of corporate media. | ||
But seeing all the haterade out there this morning... | ||
As sure as the sun rising in the east, there were a slew of corporate media headlines saying how terrible this space was and how awful it was. | ||
No, man. | ||
If you listen to it, that was without question the most fascinating. | ||
People would pay a million dollars or more for a ticket to just listen to these two guys talk on stage like that. | ||
And they were doing it for free out in the public. | ||
It was great. | ||
I mean, it was great. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Yeah, exactly. | ||
And again, like we were talking about last night, there is an argument for the fact that there wasn't video. | ||
I know a lot of people like video and that's more engaging. | ||
But having no video on Spaces has a more intimate feeling and people tend to open up more. | ||
And it's, again, more like a phone call. | ||
And that's what people want. | ||
People don't want the corporate, like the lighting and everything and, you know, everyone's stiff and like they feel like they have to be all professional or whatever. | ||
We've seen enough of that. | ||
And that's not what like Americans want out of a presidential candidate interview with, you know, someone like Elon Musk. | ||
They want to hear what they're actually talking about behind the scenes. | ||
And that gives us a little insight into like what a phone call would be between these two men. | ||
I thought it was genius. | ||
I want to play this first clip, but we don't want to drown everyone in clips, but there are some clips that must be played because the conversation was wide-ranging. | ||
Was it over two hours, ALX? | ||
Yeah, I think it was over two hours of actual conversation. | ||
And I don't think there was any agenda. | ||
I get no impression that somebody had any, even bullet points, right? | ||
Hey, Trump, we're going to talk about this, this, this, and this. | ||
I get no impression that that was... | ||
One time Elon's like, what should I say next? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, he's like, oh yes, maybe we should talk about this. | |
These two billionaires just like, chew the fat. | ||
But I loved the first question because Elon's like, what was it like getting shot? | ||
We have that clip. | ||
This is really important to play for you. | ||
What is it like being shot here? | ||
Here's here's President Trump and Elon having that conversation. | ||
No. | ||
OK. | ||
Klein. | ||
So it's the shooting. | ||
Believe in God. | ||
Clip. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
I knew immediately that it was a bullet. | ||
I knew immediately that it was at the ear. | ||
It hit very hard, but it hit the ear. | ||
I also heard people shout, bullets, bullets, get down, get down. | ||
You know, I moved down pretty nicely, pretty quickly, and we had bullets flying right over my head after I went down, so I'm glad I went down. | ||
The bigger miracle was that I was looking in the exact direction of the shooter, and so it hit me at an angle that was far less destructive than any other angle, so that was the miracle. | ||
For those people that don't believe in God, I think we've got to all start thinking about that. | ||
You know, I'm a believer. | ||
Now I'm more of a believer, I think. | ||
And a lot of people have said that to me. | ||
A lot of great people have said that to me, actually. | ||
One final thing. | ||
My favorite part isn't in there. | ||
My favorite part is him being like, Elon's like, what was it like being shot? | ||
And he's like, not great. | ||
Like, it wasn't great. | ||
Yeah, it wasn't pleasant. | ||
Yeah, okay. | ||
Hold on. | ||
unidentified
|
We could start off with... | |
I mean, the assassination attempt, which was an incredible thing. | ||
And I have to say that your actions after that assassination attempt were inspiring. | ||
You know, instead of shying away from things, instead of ducking down, you were pumping your fist in the air and saying, fight, fight, fight. | ||
And I think that's, I mean, the president of the United States... | ||
Represents America, and I think that is America. | ||
That is strength under fire. | ||
Part of the reason why I was excited to endorse you as the President of the United States for having another term here is that was just incredibly inspiring, but I mean, what was it like for you? | ||
Not pleasant. | ||
I didn't know I had that much blood. | ||
The doctors later told me that the ear is a place that is a very bloody place if you're going to get hit. | ||
But in this case, it was probably the best alternative you could even think about because it went at the right angle. | ||
It was a hard hit. | ||
I guess you would say surreal, but it wasn't surreal. | ||
You know, I was telling somebody you have instances like this or like a lot less than this where you feel it's a surreal situation. | ||
And I never felt that way. | ||
I knew immediately that it was a bullet. | ||
I knew immediately that it was at the ear. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And because it, you know, it hit very hard, but hit the ear. | ||
And I also heard people. | ||
Shout, bullets, bullets, you know, get down, get down, because I, you know, I moved down pretty nicely, pretty quickly, and we had bullets flying right over my head after I went down, so I'm glad I went down. | ||
That was Trump's first line on the space. | ||
Like, the first thing he said was, not pleasant, there was blood everywhere, I didn't know I had so much blood. | ||
Like, set the tone for the whole thing, like, right out of the gate. | ||
Yeah, and it's funny, even, like... | ||
Even like a week after he got shot, he was already joking about it and doing like a little bit of like ping, ping, like his little sound effects or whatever and joking about it. | ||
So it shows his sense of humor on it. | ||
And I actually saw some, I think it was NBC's National Political Reporter. | ||
She was like, oh, it's basically a rehash of the RNC. | ||
There's no new ground being covered here. | ||
I'm like, the dude got shot a month ago. | ||
Like, you wouldn't be talking about yourself getting shot if you did. | ||
Yet, like, Democrats are allowed to talk about January 6th for three-plus years, and that's all that they talk about. | ||
And she's just like, she was a whole thread, and she's like, yeah, there's no new ground being covered here. | ||
I'm like, okay, this lady's a hater. | ||
There is new ground. | ||
So there are a number of new things that they talked about. | ||
Donald Trump said he wants to ban the Department of Education. | ||
That's freaking awesome. | ||
Elon Musk said that he wants to work in the federal government, which is wild. | ||
Commission for government efficiency, slicing and dicing the people who—the glut and the people who parasitically steal all of our tax dollars. | ||
This is what— Elon Musk said in that moment. | ||
And you may be seeing Elon Musk working in a President Trump administration. | ||
Some people just don't understand where inflation comes from. | ||
Inflation comes from government overspending because the checks never bounce when it's written by the government. | ||
So if the government spends far more than it brings in, that increases the money supply. | ||
And if the money supply increases faster than the rate of goods and services, that's inflation. | ||
So really, we need to reduce our government spending and we need to re-examine. | ||
I think we need a government efficiency commission to say, hey, where are we spending money that's sensible? | ||
Where is it not sensible? | ||
And we need to live within our means. | ||
We're currently adding, I think, a trillion dollars to the deficit roughly every hundred days. | ||
That's right. | ||
And the interest payments on the national debt now exceed the defense budget. | ||
It's on the order of a trillion dollars. | ||
It's interest. | ||
I mean, I think it would be great to just have a government efficiency commission that takes a look at these things and just ensures that the taxpayer's hard-earned money is spent in a good way. | ||
And I'd be happy to help out on such a commission. | ||
I'd love it. | ||
If it were foam. | ||
Well, you, you're the greatest cutter. | ||
I mean, I look at what you do. | ||
You walk in and you just say, you want to quit? | ||
unidentified
|
They go on strike. | |
I won't mention the name of the company, but they go on strike and you say, that's okay, you're all gone. | ||
Legendary. | ||
I endorse that. | ||
100%. | ||
I mean, why doesn't that exist? | ||
Right? | ||
There is – so living in Washington, D.C. for 15 years, my wife worked for the VA, and she worked as an administrator at the VA in one of the tangential groups called Paralyzed Veterans of America. | ||
And the goal – we were able to see this from the inside, right, since she was sort of part of that leviathan of the federal government in a tangential way. | ||
The goal is to never, ever get a slash in your budget. | ||
You must always have, you must always spend every penny you're given and then be at like a massive deficit. | ||
So the goal is to get as much allocation from Congress, as much cash given you from Congress, spend it in the stupidest possible way and light it on fire so that you end up with zero money at the end of the year, never saving ever a taxpayer dime, and then go groveling back saying we need a bigger budget. | ||
All of Washington, D.C. functions on who has the biggest budget. | ||
Whoever has the biggest budget, that's obviously where the priority goes. | ||
That's where the squeaky wheel gets the grease. | ||
And this is the, for lack of a better term, dick-measuring competition in Washington, D.C. And so it's all these organizations that don't... | ||
Their goal should be to serve the American people and return on investment. | ||
That's what the... | ||
Free market does. | ||
In Washington, D.C., through federal bureaucracies, the goal is how much can you waste? | ||
How much can you squander? | ||
How much money can you just absolutely blow out of a helicopter blower straight into the ocean so that you get a bigger budget next year? | ||
And if you have a bigger budget, you have a bigger seat at the table. | ||
You're able to brag about how big your budget is. | ||
That's it. | ||
I mean, these people, like Elon Musk, there needs to be a commission like this. | ||
It's genius. | ||
Yeah, one of the only people in Congress that I see even, you know, doing anything relevant is Rand Paul at the end of the year has his Festivus airing of grievances report, where he has the report of all the government waste. | ||
So he would be, you know, a good addition to that as well. | ||
But yeah, like you said, the entire thing about our government and D.C. in general is they always reverse the issue. | ||
They say, we don't have enough money, so we're going to raise taxes instead of... | ||
We don't have enough money. | ||
We need to spend it more wisely. | ||
So having people from the outside coming in that don't have their interests burdened by the fact that they need more money is the only way we're going to have accountability here. | ||
So someone like Elon Musk would be great for something like that. | ||
Yeah, you're doing what? | ||
You're spending what? | ||
Where? | ||
Yeah, exactly. | ||
What exactly are you delivering? | ||
What would you say you do here at HUD at housing and urban development? | ||
Why does the government need to have any urban development? | ||
The free market does fine on gentrification or developing what the free market can bear. | ||
If there's a market for it, it'll get developed. | ||
Why does there need to be a housing and urban development in the government? | ||
The best is California too. | ||
They spent how many millions on fighting homelessness and homelessness stayed the same or went up. | ||
So it's like, okay, what did you spend that money on? | ||
Oh, we don't know. | ||
It went missing. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
So, yeah. | ||
There are many who would disagree. | ||
I know this is a very, very touchy issue. | ||
And Donald Trump brought up, you know, destroying the Department of Education. | ||
I doubt you disagree with that. | ||
But what I mean to say is the abortion issue. | ||
You know, so with the Dobbs decision, the abortion issue, abortion goes back to the states, right? | ||
And Donald Trump messages on this all the time saying, hey, you know what? | ||
The states decide. | ||
Every state gets to determine and ratify their own constitution. | ||
On the sensitive issue, the people get to say I have a choice, right? | ||
Instead of nine crusty old judges, the people get to have a choice, and you get to live in the states. | ||
Every state has different laws for millions of different things, whether it's housing, taxes, firearms, property, everything. | ||
You get to live in the state. | ||
There are 50 laboratories of democracy. | ||
You get to live in the state that best suits your needs, okay? | ||
So I think that it's strong messaging. | ||
You know how pro-life we are on this channel. | ||
But, like, I think it's strong messaging to say the people get to decide. | ||
And with the Department of Education, you know, Trump's getting beat up about that this morning. | ||
unidentified
|
Wow, how could he? | |
How could he? | ||
You're Krasenstein bros. | ||
You're having a total soy meltdown. | ||
But, like, dude, Trump said yesterday, like, ban the Department of Education. | ||
Do we have that clip? | ||
It says ban the Department of Education. | ||
Send it back to the states. | ||
The states should decide how children are educated. | ||
Not the federal government. | ||
That's an insane thing for the federal government to decide. | ||
And so, you know, if... | ||
If you want the most horrible possible results, send your kids to school in California, right, or San Francisco, or some far-left state. | ||
If you want really good results, then you can send your kids to school in a red state where you can have an education department that's run from the state level. | ||
I think it's genius messaging. | ||
The other thing, too, is they always like to trap them on the abortion thing. | ||
Would you sign an abortion ban federally or whatever? | ||
The problem with that is that we can't even pass a bill stating that only illegal immigrants can't vote in our elections. | ||
How are we going to pass a national abortion ban? | ||
That's the trap that they always put him in. | ||
On both sides, the pro-life people say, oh, he refuses to take that position. | ||
It's like, well, he's walking into a trap because it's an unrealistic position. | ||
He did his job. | ||
We fought for 50-plus years to get Roe v. | ||
Wade overturned. | ||
He did it, and people are mad because he's not... | ||
Apparently doing enough when he's done the most for the pro-life movement in 50 years. | ||
Reverse engineers that, though, because the goal for any conservative, for any actual libertarian conservative who wants less government, I don't know conservatives, I guess like the Cucks for Kamala group, right? | ||
But I don't know conservatives who want more government. | ||
I don't know them. | ||
That was George W. Bush, and look at how well that's aged. | ||
Terribly. | ||
And so, like, a national abortion ban would be more government. | ||
And more government intercession in all of our lives. | ||
And so it's like antithetical. | ||
The entire question is insane because it's antithetical to the whole point. | ||
The whole point was kick these huge issues back to the state and more importantly back to the localized community. | ||
The best governance you're ever going to get and the most direct governance you're ever going to get is your town mayor, your county councilman, the people who live in your neighborhoods, the people who know the potholes that you hit on your way to work and are annoyed by them as well. | ||
That's actually direct democracy. | ||
That's the best way it should work. | ||
The federal government should get the F out of everything else, right? | ||
And that's actually the way it was designed. | ||
Dude, if you want to change your community, if you want to change something going on in your city, you go to your local ombudsman. | ||
They have different names for them in every city. | ||
You go local, right? | ||
And you get it done there. | ||
And most people, if they want to affect change, they run for a local office, right? | ||
State representative or whatever. | ||
So, yeah, I mean, like, the entire question is, of course the Department of Education should be destroyed, along with the Department of Energy, along with HHS. | ||
Like, these things can be handled by the state and can be handled far more efficiently and effectively, and there can be less blackmail. | ||
Because that's what they do, right? | ||
If you don't adopt woke propaganda and the woke ideology, they just sign in California. | ||
Like, the state can take your kids! | ||
Like, if you're not down for that, then, um, yeah, I mean, that's totally evil, right? | ||
Like, but if you live in California, you effectively say, I'm okay with the state coming in and taking my children. | ||
Um, and that's, bro, that's wild, you know? | ||
Bro, that's, that's, that's crazy. | ||
Um, okay, what's up? | ||
Uh, what's, what's the, oh, do we have it? | ||
Do we actually have it? | ||
Okay, let's, let's, let's roll with it. | ||
Let's roll. | ||
Close up Department of Education, move education back to the states where states like Iowa, where states like Idaho, you know, not every state will do great because states that basically aren't doing good now. | ||
You look at Gavin Newsom, the governor of California. | ||
He's terrible. | ||
He does a terrible job. | ||
So he's not going to do great with education. | ||
But of the 50, I would bet that 35 would do great. | ||
And 15 of them or 20 of them will be as good as Norway. | ||
Norway is considered great. | ||
You can name them. | ||
They're so good. | ||
Some of these countries are so good. | ||
But if you go into some of these really well-run states, we have states that don't know what debt is. | ||
We have states that have low taxes, no debt, everybody working. | ||
They're really well-run. | ||
And maybe they have certain advantages in terms of location, in terms of, you know, the land or the sun, the sun and the water and the whole thing. | ||
You know, there are a lot of advantages to some people. | ||
But if you moved education back to the 50s, you'll have some that won't do well. | ||
But they'll actually be forced to do better because it'll be a pretty bad situation. | ||
unidentified
|
But if you think about it, you'll have some of these states. | |
I'll bet you'd have 30, 35 states. | ||
It'll be much better. | ||
And you know what it'll cost? | ||
less than half what it is in Washington. | ||
And these people don't care about the students in these faraway states. | ||
unidentified
|
And it would be unbelievable. | |
So this is great messaging. | ||
This is fantastic messaging. | ||
The reporters saying that this was just like Donald Trump not making any news are insane. | ||
Elon Musk says he wants to work for the government. | ||
Donald Trump says he believes more in God now that he saved his life, that it was not pleasant getting shot. | ||
Donald Trump and Elon Musk arguing and fighting over EVs and electric energy. | ||
This is one of my favorite memes from last night. | ||
Trump showing Elon he could just put solar panels on top of his cars to charge them. | ||
That did happen during the conversation. | ||
So funny. | ||
I love when he says stuff like that. | ||
And Elon's like, uh... | ||
Imagine if it actually worked, though. | ||
unidentified
|
You've seen it on Tesla in those two years. | |
I did straight up say that. | ||
So, I want to show you guys something. | ||
We had, you know, to show you the kinetic power of what happened yesterday. | ||
We, you know, we had record-breaking streams. | ||
And I posted about it. | ||
I said thank you. | ||
We posted about it not to pat ourselves on the back, merely to say that this was a massive... | ||
Kinetic energy of this moment. | ||
People really were ravenous to listen and to hear. | ||
And one of the first comments was, my boy Jeremy, from the quartering, ALX, look, he's got the gold checkmark. | ||
Look at that. | ||
He's got the gold checkmark. | ||
We gotta get the gold checkmark. | ||
From the quartering, Jeremy says, his rumble peak was... | ||
Twice ours. | ||
140,000 people watching on Rumble. | ||
This is massive. | ||
This is as big as you get on cable TV. | ||
He's beating cable TV shows. | ||
And ladies and gentlemen, you know Jeremy from The Quartering. | ||
He joins the program live now. | ||
unidentified
|
you you you you Look at you, boy! | |
Look at this, Jeremy. | ||
Good job, dude. | ||
Yeah, thanks for having me on. | ||
I think a good friend is somebody who, when they see their buddy getting a little too big for their britches, they've got to remind them of their actual role out there. | ||
And I think that that was it. | ||
It was actually insane. | ||
You obviously generally have far more viewers than me, so I had to take the wins where I can get them. | ||
But yeah, it was... | ||
I was watching your stream. | ||
You were way up there. | ||
And then I think once people could get into the Xtreme, then our numbers dipped a little bit. | ||
But I was a little sad that it suddenly worked. | ||
unidentified
|
But that's okay. | |
It was still wild. | ||
It was wild to see the amount of people live on Rumble watching it. | ||
I think the real numbers are obviously, you know... | ||
It's definitely close to 50 million to 100 million, I think, people that actually listened to the video interview. | ||
The seismic... | ||
I don't know if you saw the tweet that Elon put out where it was an infographic of 1,000 negative headlines from last night. | ||
It was great. | ||
I wish Trump would do it every week. | ||
Maybe not for three hours, but he should do it more. | ||
We put up a poll yesterday. | ||
Do you want this to happen like every single week? | ||
We call it a fire space chat, right? | ||
So it's just fire space and maybe even at some point Elon Musk and Donald Trump can sit by a fireplace. | ||
There are plenty of fireplaces at Mar-a-Lago. | ||
Sit the boys down. | ||
So here's the graphic you were talking about of all the hate. | ||
Sit the boys down and do this every week. | ||
I think Trump wins handily on election night. | ||
If they do that, because you're able to hotwire the entire system and there's no middleman. | ||
This is actually the best Trump, I would argue. | ||
Like Trump off the top of his head, like just chatting. | ||
We got multiple amazing Trumpisms last night. | ||
Now we obviously know the rosy fat pig thing, but we've got the way, no way, which is classic. | ||
We had another stupid threat out of his stupid face. | ||
That was a classic. | ||
Calling the one guy a loser was also classic. | ||
As Trump settled in later in the interview, he was himself. | ||
He was funny. | ||
Trump's funny when he's off the cuff, so I think you're right. | ||
Also importantly, I would argue that it definitely gave us a break in the cacklementum or the Kamala nominon. | ||
It's every headline out there is Donald Trump right now instead of... | ||
Shocking new poll says Gen Z supports Kamala. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
All this literal fake news that they're putting out. | ||
It's great to see that too. | ||
Since you brought up Kamala, she had an ex-girlfriend meltdown last night. | ||
Not great. | ||
Screenshotting texts, right? | ||
Putting them up on Snapchat. | ||
She was reaching for the bottle of Xanax. | ||
Getting in some yoga pants, mean girl-in from the couch. | ||
I think I was getting close once I saw my numbers hit 150,000 live viewers. | ||
I was like, Xanax? | ||
Where's that? | ||
But the, yeah, I mean, I did like the optics of, hey, the entire world's tuned in to Donald Trump. | ||
Money, please! | ||
Yeah, that's right. | ||
Money, please! | ||
Pop that up, by the way. | ||
Pop it up. | ||
We got, Kamala Harris is like, Like, yeah, yeah. | ||
The two worst people, what was the line? | ||
The two worst people you know are talking. | ||
Give me $25. | ||
Money, please, pors. | ||
Yeah, like, it's just, I never, I mean, I admit, even on, really on all sides, you know, this may be an unpopular take, but I'm full of them. | ||
I don't love when politicians ask the plebs for money, especially ones that, like, on the national stage that have huge money coming in from, like, big corporate donors. | ||
But, like, Kamala just stole $100 million from Joe Biden, and now she's like, money, please. | ||
I need just $25, pours. | ||
unidentified
|
Help me out. | |
Not a good look. | ||
I promise I'll fix the economy on day one. | ||
Yeah, day one. | ||
I haven't been in the office. | ||
What would you say you do here? | ||
Yeah, that's my favorite. | ||
And that's one thing I keep telling my friends and family to, you know, when they talk to a Democrat and they're like, ooh, Kamala's going to do this. | ||
It's like, what has she been doing the last three and a half years? | ||
What stopped her from stopping taxes on tips? | ||
Oh, you mean she voted to keep the taxes on tips? | ||
Oh, you know, like, and people, it's so, you guys got to be able to relate to this. | ||
Like, sometimes you just like, Man, people are so stupid. | ||
Like, I just can't. | ||
I can't. | ||
Like, we're watching in real time the mainstream media apparatus, like, completely. | ||
Oh, shoot, never the borders are. | ||
What are you guys talking about? | ||
You're a far-right extremist, Benny? | ||
That's crazy. | ||
One of the speeches, or, yeah, she keeps giving the same speech over and over, number one. | ||
Number two, she was, like, bashing the fact that prices are too high. | ||
And then she's like, yeah, on day one, we're going to fix that. | ||
I'm like, so you're not going to tell the president? | ||
Who you're vice president to, how to fix these prices if you know how to do it. | ||
So all this time, these four years, you've known the secret to lower prices and you just haven't told them? | ||
Like, okay. | ||
So your house is on fire and your doggy is trapped inside and there's two firemen outside and one of them is clearly handicapped and has like a disease and the other one is sitting there with the fire hose with like their foot cranking the fire hose being like... | ||
Too bad. | ||
It's a terrible thing that your house is burning, but you better give me money first before I... | ||
I know I could fix it, but you're going to have to elect me. | ||
That's right. | ||
It's extremely frustrating. | ||
I can't help the, you know, the handicapped fireman who's here. | ||
I got my stiletto, you know, got my Louis Vuitton and my $60,000 Tiffany's necklace right on the fire hose. | ||
Here's, uh, Jeremy, you've been, okay, so you've been, you've been streaming, um, you're like, you're like one of the old wise sages of streaming. | ||
I want to, I want to ask you about this. | ||
How long have you been streaming, Jeremy? | ||
Like, oh my God. | ||
Yeah. | ||
More than 10 years. | ||
Yeah. | ||
10 years. | ||
Okay. | ||
So I want to ask you about, do you ever like, do you ever like steal someone's job from them and then take their, and then hack into their YouTube accounts? | ||
And then take their channels and then stream you stealing their literal job from them from their channels? | ||
Is this like a practice in humility? | ||
I mean, is this like some type of like Abu Ghraib humiliation? | ||
I've seen it a few times with the crypto scams. | ||
But that's been about it. | ||
And that's, you know, speaking of, I mean, Kamala Harris is basically a crypto scam. | ||
She's making you all sorts of promises about getting rich and fixing things. | ||
And then when it turns out, when you actually connect your bank account, they just take all your money. | ||
It's a perfect metaphor for her doing this. | ||
And it's wild to me. | ||
Obviously, the hilarious part is that there's 500 people watching that. | ||
And this was a big announcement. | ||
This was supposed to be the big one, right? | ||
And there was 500 people watching. | ||
I wonder if, you know, I was really hoping the Kamala nominon or the cacklementum or whatever would have dried up by now. | ||
But I really am thinking that, I mean, at some point the press has to, they have to, right? | ||
We're on almost day 20 of them just like letting her just coast. | ||
At some point, somebody's got to say something, right? | ||
I would hope. | ||
Yeah, she's answered three questions so far, and two of them were the same answers. | ||
Two of them were about the debate, and then the first one was her answer where she just talked in circles about diplomacy and how important the importance of diplomacy and having a diplomat and blah, blah, blah, and she went in circles and circles. | ||
That was the first time she talked to the press. | ||
And then the other two were about the debate. | ||
Those are the only three questions that she's answered since replacing Biden. | ||
Are you guys feeling a sense of existential dread like I am, where it's like, I'm letting the bad thoughts creep in a little bit. | ||
They're going to protect this woman for the next three months. | ||
CNN's going to protect this woman for three months. | ||
Nobody's going to ask her any questions. | ||
And for some reason, for a woman that basically, in my opinion, cooed her way into the incumbent presidency, she has the power! | ||
So she's not going to agree to do three debates with Trump. | ||
She's going to do the one. | ||
I don't know if she'll do a town hall. | ||
I hope so. | ||
Because I'm just basically on the mathematical equation is the more words that come out of her mouth, the less votes she gets. | ||
But I'm feeling, how do you stave off? | ||
How do you push the ghosts away when you're looking at these betting markets who are like, oh, she's up by 15 points in the betting markets? | ||
I'm like, I don't understand any of it. | ||
It feels like it's all a facade, but I keep waiting for it to go away. | ||
The only thing that gives me some confidence is the fact that it only took one debate to knock Biden out. | ||
So the fact that she's going to be on stage with Trump and she's going to be, or going to have to be unscripted unless George Stephanopoulos like slips out of the questions like Donna Brazil did. | ||
Yeah, he's gone. | ||
Yeah, I know. | ||
The fact that she's going to be on a stage with Trump gives me some confidence that it might just be enough to flip the script a little there. | ||
We need mean Trump back on stage. | ||
He needs to make her crack. | ||
He needs another, a black woman is talking moment from her. | ||
That's like the Michigan, I think it was Michigan, right? | ||
We need more of that because people need to remember just how unlikable she is. | ||
I'm going to try and white pill here for just a second. | ||
I have a prescription. | ||
I need it filled, Benny. | ||
Yeah, I should try and white pill. | ||
I hate to put the same thing back up, but we all saw... | ||
You know, millions of people trying to listen to President Trump and Elon yesterday. | ||
And again, Kamala cannot crack a thousand. | ||
She can't even crack half. | ||
She can barely crack 500 on these announcements. | ||
And you guys both do this professionally and not to jump super deep into the technical elements of live streaming. | ||
But live concurrence is a direct correlation to the number of people who are actually energetic about what you're doing. | ||
The number of people you can bus into a stadium for a pack of cigarettes or call as actors from L.A. to come to Phoenix, Arizona, which they did, because you have the listings there, this isn't real. | ||
I think it's astroturfed, and I think the reason why they did this so late in the game, they cheated, right? | ||
It's important to say this. | ||
She was illegally installed. | ||
They cheated. | ||
And they've all admitted they cheated. | ||
The cheat is we knew we were going to lose, so we changed the player. | ||
They cheated, and they're hoping that the sugar high is enough to get them within the margin of fraud, right? | ||
And then shenanigans. | ||
But I don't think that the sugar high isn't... | ||
I don't think the sugar high is... | ||
I'll tell you this. | ||
I would be blackpilling right now if Kamala Harris wasn't currently vice president. | ||
I think that the gravity... | ||
I think the gravity of her being the current vice president for the last four years is enough to weigh her down through the identity politics barrage that we're living through right now. | ||
That's effectively what we're living through. | ||
Also, man, bro, her first decision was to pick a stolen valor, absolute goof troop, who is one of the creepiest, strangest, Freaking weirdos out there. | ||
And maybe she might have to actually dump him from the ticket. | ||
That's the rumor going around. | ||
That would look good. | ||
Yeah, that would look bad. | ||
Sorry to interrupt, but also one thing I try to wipe hell on is the fact that she picked Tim Walls means that that is not an aggressive move. | ||
We need to fortify Minnesota and the Midwest. | ||
I think if she thought she was ahead, they would have picked Shapiro, even though he had some baggage. | ||
The other white pill is now polling has never been worse. | ||
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
It's never been worse because polls have become content now. | ||
So if you start looking at like even RCP and all this stuff, it's like, what is this poll? | ||
I never even heard of this poll. | ||
And then you get a spawns a hundred articles that all says shock new poll, but just for the fun of it right now, the RCP average on polls has Harris up 1.1. | ||
There are two new polls that came in. | ||
From Morning Consult and Ipsos. | ||
Okay, fine. | ||
She's up 1.1. | ||
Suppression polls, those are fake. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Today in history, okay, in August 13th, 2020, Joe Biden was up. | ||
Now, again, Kamala's up 1.1. | ||
Joe Biden in 2020 was up 7.5. | ||
And Clinton, at this date in history, was up 6.8. | ||
And by the way, Trump beat Clinton, obviously, and many believe he... | ||
But the point is, she's way pulling behind them. | ||
And at minimum, you could make the argument that Trump was a nail-biter in 2020, and he obviously won for sure in 2016. | ||
So I'm hoping that, again, these polls, I try to tell people, if I could borrow your platform for a second, Benny, if you're looking at poll data and you're doom-pilling, you must... | ||
I don't want to hear you complaining about polls unless you click on the poll and then you scroll all the way down to the bottom where they show the actual people they polled. | ||
Because once you do that, you generally find that they oversampled or undersampled at the most basic levels. | ||
And it will generally tell you the poll is baloney. | ||
The only crosstabs I ever look at are likely voters in swing states. | ||
These general election polls are designed to PSYOP you. | ||
Here we go. | ||
October 24th, 2016. | ||
One week before the general election. | ||
All the debates were done. | ||
Everything was finished. | ||
The cake was baked for President Trump versus Hillary Clinton. | ||
All they needed to do was ride their horses through the week to election day. | ||
Donald Trump's chances of winning are approaching zero. | ||
Not 5%. | ||
Not 1%. | ||
Zero percent! | ||
Yeah. | ||
From the Washington Post. | ||
This is what black pilling looks like. | ||
And they're going to do it all over again. | ||
They're going to do the same thing. | ||
So you need to have your immune system built up against the black pills. | ||
Yeah, I think one of the things you were saying before you brought me on about local government is very true. | ||
For example, there's a primary in Wisconsin today. | ||
Get out and vote. | ||
unidentified
|
No. | |
Or vote yes on both referendums, by the way, that allow our Democratic governor, Tony Evers, to spend federal dollars however he wants without oversight. | ||
But anyway, just like the local votes matter, if you spend a third of the time that you spend staring at polls and polymarket and predicted trying to find just one friend, one reluctant friend, and you take their rear end. | ||
By the way, you're a private citizen. | ||
You can do that. | ||
You go to get a friend. | ||
You're like, let's get you registered. | ||
Let's go vote for Trump together. | ||
And if everyone does that, instead of staring at these polls, which I 100% agree with you guys, they are designed to demoralize the base. | ||
They are designed to make you think you don't have a chance and you don't show up. | ||
What I will tell people, to your viewership, I'm sure it's similar to what you're saying. | ||
I hope it's not the exact opposite of what you're saying, but it is my opinion that you vote early in person. | ||
As Bongino says, bank your vote. | ||
Yes, I know. | ||
Early voting sucks. | ||
Yes, I know mail-in ballot sucks. | ||
But Democrats are doing it. | ||
And if you don't find yourself in line at 7 p.m. on election night when the machines accidentally break, then they can't prevent you from voting. | ||
And you can track your earlier in-person vote online to make sure they count it. | ||
And you can make sure you get that vote in. | ||
And then you can spend a week finding a friend or another friend and take them to vote. | ||
And that's how winning is done. | ||
Not staying online and doing what we do and doom pill and talk about it. | ||
It's all of our viewers that get out there and they get their aunt or their uncle or their cousin or their brother or their sister who may be apolitical, but it's like, hey, if you're apolitical, how about we, you know, it's been a while since we hung out. | ||
Let's just swing by the early voting place. | ||
If you vote early, it is so painless. | ||
There's never anyone there. | ||
You're in and out in five minutes. | ||
That's my pitch. | ||
unidentified
|
Sorry. | |
I voted early in the Florida elections of 2022. | ||
It was easy peasy, man. | ||
I did in the last two elections. | ||
I literally walked in at 11 o 'clock in the afternoon and walked out three minutes later. | ||
It was the easiest thing I've ever done. | ||
I tracked. | ||
I forget. | ||
You might know the URL, but I think it's like YouGov or something. | ||
You can track and see that your vote's in. | ||
You can see that it was counted. | ||
You can see who you voted for and make sure that kind of stuff. | ||
And then you don't have to worry about it. | ||
Then if something happens and you get in a horrible car accident, you don't end up voting Democrat. | ||
Here we go. | ||
The top battlegrounds. | ||
A real clear politics average. | ||
Donald Trump leading in 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 of the 7 swing states. | ||
And within the margin of error in places like Wisconsin and Michigan. | ||
Ladies and gentlemen, if this holds correct. | ||
Then you're looking at Donald Trump winning on election night in a map that looks like this. | ||
Now, this is tighter than it would have been with Joe Biden. | ||
With Joe Biden, Donald Trump would have been up above 300. | ||
I think so, too. | ||
But they cheated, okay? | ||
Listen, they're cheaters. | ||
They're cheaters, all right? | ||
They're the nasty, wretched girl from your hometown who's cheated on every boyfriend she's ever had. | ||
These people have cheated every single time they've gotten a chance. | ||
They have cheated and bent the rules, and they're doing it right now. | ||
The goal was for Donald Trump. | ||
Donald Trump was going to face Joe Biden. | ||
Joe Biden said God himself could not get him out of the race. | ||
Joe Biden posted on X 24 hours before his suspicious dropout letter with the signature that didn't look like Joe Biden's, which Nancy Pelosi says didn't even sound like him. | ||
He posted 24 hours before then, I'm staying in the race. | ||
I think they've deleted all these ALX, have they? | ||
Have they gone and, like, shame deleted these posts? | ||
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
Well, you say God himself couldn't get rid of him, but Nancy Pelosi is probably a little bit closer to the devil than God. | ||
So perhaps it wasn't God that got Joe Biden. | ||
Jeremy, I would never say anything like that. | ||
I'm just quoting Joe Biden. | ||
I know you wouldn't say that. | ||
Mr. Catholic, Joe Biden, said in that George Stephanopoulos interview... | ||
Like, that God isn't coming back and isn't telling him to get out of the race. | ||
So then something happened, right? | ||
Tucker predicted this. | ||
Something they... | ||
Rob Blagojevich. | ||
Rob Blagojevich, governor of this state right here in Illinois. | ||
Shout out to a Blagojevich mention. | ||
Blago, baby. | ||
Blago. | ||
Also, what's going on with your state over here? | ||
Jeremy, what's happening out here? | ||
I'm doing everything I can. | ||
We got it. | ||
We were red in 2016. | ||
Then, you know... | ||
What's going on with this oven mitt? | ||
400,000 votes at 2 a.m. in Milwaukee is what happened in 2020. | ||
So Blagojevich says, I know exactly what they did to Joe Biden because they did the same thing to me. | ||
They walk into his house, guys in dark suits walk into his house, put a file on his desk and open it up and say, oh, you think we haven't been watching you for 50 years? | ||
Yeah. | ||
Like, be a shame. | ||
Would be just a shame if your grandkids had to go to prison for this, this, this, and this. | ||
And Biden drops out. | ||
That's what Blago told us. | ||
Well, you're 100% right. | ||
Basically, everybody in government has a file like this, even the guys that we probably like, because you don't get to be in those positions of power without compromising yourself. | ||
I wish that weren't the case, but it just simply is the case. | ||
You end up with you're useful until you're not useful. | ||
I agree. | ||
If Joe Biden stays in the race, Trump wins. | ||
Trump doesn't even have to campaign. | ||
He wins with 300 electorals. | ||
It's one of the biggest blowouts in history. | ||
I think that Trump can still win in 2024. | ||
I think he will win if people ignore the noise, the swing states. | ||
Look, win Pennsylvania, pick off one of these Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesotas, or pick off, you know, get Arizona, Vegas, and he just wins. | ||
It's that easy. | ||
Like, he's just got to... | ||
I think he's... | ||
What do you guys think about this? | ||
This is a criticism. | ||
He's got to get out there more now. | ||
It's time to go. | ||
It's time to go, dude. | ||
I know your rallies are fun and stuff like that, but you've got to go, baby. | ||
Kamala's out there. | ||
He's got to go. | ||
J.D. Vance is not Donald Trump. | ||
I don't think sending J.D. Vance to Wisconsin matters as much. | ||
He's got to go. | ||
We need 2016 Trump. | ||
You remember when he was doing four events a day? | ||
He was doing four MAGA rallies per day. | ||
Yeah, he was doing, yeah, right. | ||
He was doing one at like two in the afternoon, then he was going to another state and he's doing a, he has to do that. | ||
Like he has to get, now it's time. | ||
You played enough golf, it's go time. | ||
Like by the end of September, he better be on the road every day. | ||
So what do you think about this? | ||
I saw you, I saw you posting about this. | ||
We were posting as well. | ||
I'm a, I'm a massive fan of, of this, the strategy that he has been employing with going outside of dinosaur media. | ||
More, more. | ||
Jeremy, you and I should go down and do the mega stream with Trump. | ||
I agree. | ||
I proposed, I think Elon retweeted it, no big deal. | ||
Trump should just chill, sit down there with a 12-pack of Diet Coke and just bring people in all day. | ||
You get 30 minutes, you get 30 minutes, you get 30 minutes. | ||
And then it'll be everybody's biggest stream ever, so there's a huge incentive to do it. | ||
And Trump is just good. | ||
When he's off the cuff, he's naturally likable. | ||
He should have a bunch of these other streamers on and just be cool on camera like he just always is. | ||
I agree. | ||
Yeah, bring us down to Mar-a-Lago for sure. | ||
That's more authentic than right now. | ||
Look, I'm not above criticizing Trump's campaign. | ||
Please stop bringing these burnt out people to endorse you and then sell crypto coins or whatever the heck he's doing. | ||
A lot of these celebrities he's got around him are just grifting off of it. | ||
He's just got to get down, open up Mar-a-Lago, and just keep a steady stream of people like Aiden Ross, even people who are not in our circles, these kids that are really popular. | ||
He should be doing full send podcasts more than once. | ||
He should be doing all this stuff because he can win with old... | ||
Older millennials, or younger millennials, sorry, and Gen Z that listen to these podcasts all day long. | ||
Trump's out here with Aiden Ross doing 600,000 concurrence on Kik, which is just wild. | ||
Oh, here's the... | ||
Oh, yeah. | ||
Shout out. | ||
There you go. | ||
Yes. | ||
This is such an important point from ALX. | ||
The content from Aiden Ross stream went 10x more viral than corporate media interviews. | ||
It was all organic. | ||
My advice to Team Trump would be like, stop it with the Hannity interviews, right? | ||
The Hannity call-ins. | ||
Like, that isn't moving any needle anywhere. | ||
Right. | ||
It's just not. | ||
And I got no beef with Hannity, right? | ||
I got no beef. | ||
I got no beef. | ||
They're already voting for him. | ||
Doing, like, these Laura Ingraham... | ||
Yes, that's right. | ||
Like, it's so recidivist. | ||
And it's so redundant. | ||
And the redundancy actually hurts, right? | ||
It's like, Kamala Harris will go on The View, right? | ||
She'll go on The View. | ||
Kamala Harris did this cringe thing with Drew Barrymore. | ||
You remember that? | ||
Yeah, yeah. | ||
Mamala? | ||
It was the Mamala thing? | ||
They both got on their knees and, like, started crying. | ||
It was super weird. | ||
That was the worst thing I've ever seen. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh! | |
Oh, my gosh. | ||
Oh, man. | ||
But Kamala Harris will go do that. | ||
Trump has to beat him to it. | ||
Of course they're going to drag out Bon Jovi to do a show. | ||
Of course Sting's going to play the guitar at one of these things. | ||
You have to counteract the Lady Gaga. | ||
Whispering Angels ad that she did with Joe Biden. | ||
Whispering Angels. | ||
That's a nice reference. | ||
Yeah, I 100% agree. | ||
And I hope that somebody in the Trump campaign hears this because, first of all, like you said, it's all organic. | ||
Second of all, it's $3.99, baby. | ||
It costs you nothing. | ||
That's right. | ||
You just keep bringing these people in. | ||
You fly a bunch of... | ||
Yes, obviously, I would love to have him fly me down. | ||
We could talk about Section 230 and the Internet Bill of Rights and things of that nature. | ||
But even if it was not me and I couldn't directly benefit from it, it would still be what I'm suggesting. | ||
Fly these people down. | ||
It costs you nothing. | ||
And you just have an internet connection going. | ||
You do 30 minutes after 30 minutes after 30 minutes. | ||
Trumpkin, we know. | ||
He did three hours last night. | ||
Most of it, I will admit, he did get a little rambly. | ||
But you give him short, tight windows, you get five questions. | ||
It'll be everybody's biggest stream ever. | ||
You'll turn them all into fans. | ||
And, again, you don't ever have to leave Mar-a-Lago, and he can gulf in between meetings. | ||
You reach people that aren't watching Fox. | ||
Okay, again, no hate. | ||
I worked for Newsmax, but, like, no hate. | ||
These audiences are in their 70s. | ||
That is a matter of fact. | ||
No hate, okay? | ||
Like, we're all working together, but that's not... | ||
You're not reaching... | ||
You've already reached those people. | ||
They're already voting for you. | ||
You need to reach the Aiden Ross streamers, who I would assume that 20 is probably the average age of an Aiden Ross viewer. | ||
Yeah, that was a big thing that people used to poo-poo it, was like, oh, his viewers can't vote. | ||
Yeah, okay, let's say 250,000 of them couldn't. | ||
Okay, you're still reaching 350,000 potential voters, and if you get guys like him... | ||
I know this is going to sound lame because I guess once I'm over 40, I say old guy stuff, but you can make voting for Trump cool. | ||
He's kind of started to do that a little bit where these rappers are endorsing him, but you could make voting for Trump cool and then these kids will go do it. | ||
You see these kids at the high school, I don't know if you covered this, where the kids had parking spaces at the high school and they could chalk it. | ||
They made them get rid of the Trump thing. | ||
Well, like, that's cool, man. | ||
Make Trump the counterculture again. | ||
Make him cool. | ||
And you could do that by putting him on these streams. | ||
He's funny when he's a fish out of water. | ||
He's like, you know, when Aiden Ross is talking about Tupac and whatever, and he's like, oh, let's listen to Frank. | ||
Like, that's funny. | ||
He's likable. | ||
Tupac, I don't... | ||
I don't know about that. | ||
Have you ever heard of Marvin Gaye or the Village People? | ||
That's what he said. | ||
He's like, oh, we loaded up your playlist in the car. | ||
I'm like, oh, what's he going to play? | ||
He's like, oh, isn't that just great? | ||
Frank Sinatra, one of the best. | ||
Aiden Ross probably couldn't name a single Frank Sinatra. | ||
That's funny. | ||
That's content. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
I think that that's unscripted Trump is how he won in 2016. | ||
The debates is how he won in 2016. | ||
He was flipping everywhere. | ||
That Trump boss was everywhere. | ||
He did a rally in my hometown in West Bend, Wisconsin. | ||
So he did a rally at the fairgrounds that year. | ||
He has to get back out there. | ||
He can't just coast now. | ||
He could have done that with Joe Biden, but he's got to get out there. | ||
This is awesome. | ||
This is what you're talking about, Jeremy. | ||
I would argue more than any single algorithm. | ||
That they ran for the election. | ||
The fact that this was the first election in your lifetime or my lifetime where the Republican... | ||
Well, since Ronald Reagan. | ||
I was born in the last years of Ronald Reagan's second term. | ||
This is the first time since Ronald Reagan that the Republican has more cultural power than the Democrat. | ||
Now, the deficiency between Biden was catastrophic, right? | ||
So, the left completely runs on their cultural power, right? | ||
Their ability to call in Jeremy Renner, you know, or whatever. | ||
Who's the white guys for Harris? | ||
Oh my god, Ben Stiller. | ||
All Jews wish we were black. | ||
What? | ||
Dude, you're the guy who made Robert Downey Jr. black in Tropic Thunder. | ||
Okay, now I get it. | ||
Actually, now, yeah, it makes sense now. | ||
Right. | ||
So, it's like Donald Trump had a... | ||
There was a catastrophic... | ||
I think the point of Kamala... | ||
And forgive me for this long-winded point here. | ||
The point of Kamala was to narrow that gap, right? | ||
So now you get the intersectional and the history kind of thing. | ||
Yeah, you smash Hillary Clinton and Barack together, right? | ||
And you get these firsts, okay? | ||
You get people part of this historic moment. | ||
Who cares about the candidate? | ||
It's a historic moment. | ||
And you're able to narrow the cultural deficiencies. | ||
I think that's actually what they... | ||
They're obsessed over those kind of things on the left, and they were horrified. | ||
That's why they put Joe Biden out to pasture. | ||
Yeah, yeah. | ||
One day after the election, we'll know the truth, and Joe Biden will probably say it, because at the end of the day, he's a proud man who spent almost his entire life in politics. | ||
I think that it could be, you know... | ||
You could see anything. | ||
You know Jill Biden didn't like Kamala either. | ||
They hate each other. | ||
You could see anything implode here leading up to the election. | ||
You're right. | ||
The id poll stuff, it works for a certain chunk. | ||
I don't know about the undecideds. | ||
My biggest concern is that the Kasich effect that I talked about with Sticks, Hex, and Hammer shout out is that Kamala is basically just a stand-in NPC Democrat. | ||
And that's why she has all the momentum. | ||
It's because nobody knows who the heck she is. | ||
The same thing happened with Kasich back when he was pulling so good. | ||
Nobody knows who she is. | ||
So what Trump's got to do is if she won't come out, he's got to drag her out. | ||
He's got to make all sorts of wild claims about her on live streams that she has to respond to. | ||
And you have to force her hand to respond to stuff. | ||
Find every little scandal that she's ever in and bring it up. | ||
Last night, he brought up Tampon Tim. | ||
Genius. | ||
He's got to keep doing that to force them to come out and be like, well, yeah, actually, I put tampons in the little boys' room. | ||
That's the only way that they're going to address anything, at least in my opinion. | ||
Otherwise, they're going to just hide. | ||
I think Elon called Kamala an NPC last night. | ||
Did he do that? | ||
Elon said she's an NPC. | ||
Yeah, she is. | ||
She literally is. | ||
I'm just here to be black and female, and you stupid white people with white guilt are going to vote for me. | ||
So Trump's got to get her out there. | ||
He's got one debate. | ||
That's all he's going to get. | ||
So he better, you know... | ||
So that was fake news. | ||
So Trump's saying that Kamala's agreed to three debates. | ||
Did I misread that? | ||
I've been offline for like 24 hours. | ||
Trump agrees to three. | ||
She did not agree to all three. | ||
Her position is we're going to do the Stephanopoulos one and then we'll discuss maybe doing other ones after that. | ||
Ex-girlfriend energy, man. | ||
I can't believe who writes this stuff. | ||
We're not calling it X. Can you imagine like four more years? | ||
Oh my gosh. | ||
Oh, it's excruciating. | ||
We're not going to call it X, they said in their little press release last night. | ||
Yeah, but you're still going to post on it, and you're going to pay for advertising on it. | ||
There you go. | ||
We're not calling it X. Okay, who writes these? | ||
Brie Larson? | ||
Who's writing this? | ||
The MCU fired everyone, and now they've gone over to go work for Harris Walls. | ||
Take that, Elon. | ||
We're calling it Twitter. | ||
We're deadnaming you. | ||
They've got it. | ||
That's right. | ||
They've got it. | ||
That's got to really scare the hell out of them, because Elon Musk owns Tesla. | ||
He owns Lower Space. | ||
Space X. These are cool companies. | ||
These are cool companies. | ||
People like them. | ||
They have cultural value. | ||
These companies have cultural value. | ||
Mark Zuckerberg coming out with his, like, you know, new- His rebrand. | ||
Gen Z rebrand being like, that's the most badass thing I've ever seen. | ||
Donald Trump do that. | ||
That's a bigger fire than anything, right? | ||
That it's acceptable to wear a MAGA hat walking down the street. | ||
That is so hard. | ||
They work so hard to make that unacceptable. | ||
Yeah. | ||
It's acceptable to wear a MAGA hat down the street. | ||
It became now, today, I think, right now. | ||
Like, you can now walk into any restaurant you want with a MAGA hat and know that, like, probably you're going to get more fist bumps than people hissing at you. | ||
It used to be, I would call them, it's not my term, but you get, like, low bones where people would be like, give you a little on the low or they'd be like, you know, like, but, like, now it's more, you see a lot of Trump merch. | ||
My assistant is currently wearing a MAGA hat at work. | ||
So, like, you know, it's... | ||
Are they there right now? | ||
Yes, she's here. | ||
Okay, pop on the screen. | ||
Pop on the screen. | ||
I want to see what MAGA hat. | ||
We're MAGA hat aficionados around. | ||
Oh, I have the best one. | ||
You want to see which ones? | ||
Dark MAGA. | ||
There you go. | ||
What's going on? | ||
I have the dark MAGA one somewhere. | ||
Wait, wait, wait. | ||
Show me the gold. | ||
Is it the gold? | ||
Can you get it on the cam? | ||
I want my gold one. | ||
She's got the white and gold, which is a sharp look. | ||
She is white and gold, but I have the gold on gold, which was sold out. | ||
The camo one, which is popular in Wisconsin. | ||
It's downstairs, but I have the gold on gold. | ||
That was at the RNC. | ||
That was the hat. | ||
The gold on gold with the gold American flag. | ||
Very Trump. | ||
You wear that while pooping in a gold toilet. | ||
It's gold all the way. | ||
So yeah, it has definitely become culturally cool. | ||
I think he needs to play into that. | ||
I think he needs to bring on more streamers. | ||
And then he needs to hit the road probably by September. | ||
Oh, that's a classic too. | ||
I will admit that inside of the studio for years we've been rocking the Kid Rock for Senate Hat. | ||
Reminders of Kid Rock. | ||
He did toy with a Senate run in 2018 and could absolutely have won Michigan. | ||
He could have won a Senate season. | ||
At that time, I think so. | ||
Now you have to be Muslim to win Michigan. | ||
Or anti-Jew, I guess. | ||
It'll be interesting to see how that plays out. | ||
If he can make it cool, he can continue to play into the... | ||
Mega, uncool, you know, we're cool. | ||
Harris is dorky and stuffy, and she doesn't, you know. | ||
I think, by the way, I think he's going to- And Tim Waltz has stolen valor. | ||
I mean, that hits, man. | ||
I've got to tell you about that. | ||
I have still been unable to debunk the other rumor about him, which I won't go into much detail, but I've been looking for somebody to debunk his, I don't know, his equestrian career, I guess I would call it, maybe. | ||
I'm just saying, I haven't been able to debunk that, and that's going around the internet, so I don't know. | ||
I would not want to vote for that guy, but ultimately, if they can pin them as the dork establishment people and Trump as the wild card, I think that helps. | ||
I think hit Gen Z. I think he needs, Trump continues, in my opinion, needs to keep telling people to vote early in person. | ||
I don't want to see what I saw in 2020 where people in Maricopa County were standing around at 8.59 and they were getting turned away. | ||
I don't want to see that. | ||
Oops, the machines broke. | ||
Oops! | ||
What a winky dink. | ||
Yeah, I don't want to see that. | ||
Go in person. | ||
Find out. | ||
It's usually two weeks early, some places earlier. | ||
Go bank your vote and then spend another week or two. | ||
Trying to find another person or two that can go do it. | ||
Because I can promise you the Democrats are doing it. | ||
That's how they won in 2020. | ||
They were going door to door being like, let me help you fill out this ballot, 90-year-old woman who lives in a retirement community. | ||
Trump, mega has to do that. | ||
I'm sorry. | ||
You can call it scummy all you want, but that's what they're doing. | ||
So you've got to do it. | ||
So a couple of important things that sort of augment what we're talking about here. | ||
unidentified
|
There's no sound or tune. | |
There is nothing. | ||
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
And that's all there is to it. | ||
All of us who are used to filling our tank, you usually can smell it and you can hear it. | ||
You can hear the guzzling sound. | ||
She keeps trying to wiggle it around, too. | ||
unidentified
|
So how do I know it's actually working? | |
It is. | ||
Oh, this is why they're not letting Kamala Harris do any interviews. | ||
This is her spokesperson this morning. | ||
This is her spokesperson this morning. | ||
unidentified
|
While she's traveling and talking to voters and getting her message out there to the American people, something that she's been doing from the very start of this campaign and something that she certainly did when she was President Biden's running mate as vice president. | |
But look, you just mentioned the speech she's going to be getting. | ||
I was asking about today, and I don't think she's got any campaign events. | ||
On the schedule today, does she? | ||
Whoa! | ||
CNN? | ||
unidentified
|
Well, she and Governor Walz have been traveling across the country. | |
They hit nearly every battleground state last week. | ||
On the campaign trail, they raised $36 million within the first 24 hours of Governor Walz joining the ticket. | ||
And what she's going to be doing Friday is taking her economic message directly to the voters in North Carolina. | ||
I certainly don't want to get in front of exactly what she's going to say. | ||
But she's going to talk a little bit about how she's going to make sure that she's putting consumers first as part of her economic plan. | ||
She's going to take on corporate price gougers. | ||
Shut up. | ||
To do an interview. | ||
I think we all do, and I'll ask you more about that in just a second. | ||
The reason I was asking about today is because it seems like she has time if she wanted to do an interview with a member of the media or do a news conference, correct? | ||
There does appear to be that time if she wanted. | ||
CNN! | ||
unidentified
|
She has said on the campaign trail that she would be doing an interview at some point. | |
Just one. | ||
She said that I think last week. | ||
By the end of the month. | ||
She'll do one interview. | ||
She'll do one interview. | ||
Why will she do one interview? | ||
Jeremy, I have the proof as to why you would never, if you actually wanted Kamala to win, let her do an interview. | ||
unidentified

Rapper alive. | |
Tupac. | ||

|
Best rapper alive. | |
Tupac. | ||
He's dead. | ||
unidentified
|
You say he lives on. | |
I know. | ||
unidentified
|
I keep doing it. | |
Listen to Angela Rye try and save her. | ||
Listen. | ||
This is how desperate they are to save her. | ||
unidentified
|
Tupac lives on. | |
I'm with you. | ||
unidentified
|
I'm with you. | |
So Tupac, keep going. | ||
Ask the question. | ||
Who would I say? | ||
I mean, there's so many. | ||
I mean, you know. | ||
unidentified
|
She can't name one. | |
Not even Quavo. | ||
There are some that I would not mention right now because they should stay in their lane. | ||
unidentified
|
What? | |
I want to know who those are. | ||
And then watch this. | ||
unidentified
|
Keep moving. | |
Keep moving. | ||
I don't know any rappers. | ||
unidentified
|
Keep moving. | |
Keep moving. | ||
Meanwhile, you have President Trump. | ||
Hold on, where's my President Trump rappers clip? | ||
unidentified
|
Klein! | |
Klein! | ||
How dare you, ladies and gentlemen? | ||
What an embarrassment. | ||
unidentified
|
How dare? | |
How dare? | ||
I love this. | ||
One of my favorite clips. | ||
One of my favorite clips ever. | ||
Here we go. | ||
Best rapper alive? | ||
Chef G. Does everybody know Chef G? | ||
Chef G. Where is Chef G? | ||
An obscure local rapper. | ||
Come on up, fellas. | ||
Rapper Sleepy Hollow. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Come on up here, fellas. | ||
How are you, man? | ||
Oh, I like that. | ||
unidentified
|
I want to get that done. | |
Oh, I like that. | ||
I want to get that done. | ||
President Trump, oh man. | ||
He's starstruck. | ||
unidentified
|
One thing I want to say. | |
One thing I want to say. | ||
They're always going to whisper your accomplishments and shout your failures. | ||
Trump gonna shout the wins for all of us. | ||
Thank you. | ||
Make America great again. | ||
Hey, Kamala, Kamala can't even answer who's the best rapper alive. | ||
I don't know if you saw or if you already played this too. | ||
CNN, I can tell CNN's getting a little salty because they must not, like we don't have anything to cover other than Trump. | ||
There was a clip where CNN last night after the, I just quote tweeted, it's at the top of my timeline. | ||
Where they're like, oh, it was just more misinformation and threat. | ||
And then I think they accidentally or purposely called her out because the one clip they played was Donald Trump saying that she won't do interviews and that she's stupid. | ||
I think that CNN is actually low-key pissed off that she's not doing any press with them because they don't have anything to talk about. | ||
CNN's owned by Trump supporters now. | ||
So Zaslav... | ||
That's true, yeah. | ||
Yeah, who bought the, like, Warner Brothers, right? | ||
So Discovery buys Warner Brothers. | ||
They own CNN, right, through, like, Cutout. | ||
And so the guy, this guy is like, this guy is like a low-key Trump supporter, and he's more like, I just want to make money. | ||
And the best rating CNN had in the last four years was when President Trump was live on their network. | ||
Remember that, Caitlin Collins? | ||
Yeah. | ||
unidentified
|
Mr. President! | |
Mr. President! | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, I gotta whip it out. | |
Oh, I gotta whip it out. | ||
Did you see the... | ||
Is that the chick who was on Colbert last night? | ||
Where Colbert was like, Oh, I know you guys are definitely unbiased. | ||
And the crowd was laughing. | ||
She's like... | ||
It wasn't supposed to be a laugh line. | ||
How dare! | ||
Like, whoops! | ||
No, even Colbert's quintuple jabbed audience knows that CNN's fake news. | ||
So here's what we're missing, boys. | ||
This is why I white pill, okay? | ||
This is why I white pill. | ||
This is the offering to Kamala supporters. | ||
Kamala is nowhere to be found, doing no interviews, doing nothing cool, okay? | ||
Can't name a rapper, except for her friend, Quavo, talking like I walk it. | ||
Mark Hamill. | ||
Mark Hamill is doing Republicans for Harry's Zoom rally. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Everyone's favorite Republican. | ||
Yeah, a well-known Republican. | ||
Him and Stephen King both will appear on that livestream and really change some minds. | ||
Alex, did you know that we're at the top of Mark Hamill's feed right now? | ||
I did not. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh my gosh. | |
Wait, what? | ||
unidentified
|
Face. | |
I got ratioed by Mark Hamill before, so... | ||
Yeah. | ||
unidentified
|
It happens. | |
Good old Mark. | ||
Suck it. | ||
Suck it, dude. | ||
Not the way Tim Waltz does, okay? | ||
No, not like that. | ||
Just stick to the green milk. | ||
Yeah, that's right. | ||
Yeah, that's exactly right. | ||
The green alien milk. | ||
Yeah, stick to denigrating one of the most popular masculine heroes in all of history. | ||
Look at his cover. | ||
Look at his cover image and everything. | ||
Oh, grotesque. | ||
You remember when, like, I just can't. | ||
I know it's a free-flowing conversation. | ||
Gina Carano was straight-up fired for stuff far less than this, right? | ||
And they said she was getting political. | ||
And here's Luke Skywalker himself, who apparently is going to be rolled into more Disney Star Wars projects, doing this. | ||
I mean, it's a despicable company. | ||
Well, I'm glad. | ||
I like that they do this because this will all come up in, in, um, in a discovery with Disney's lawsuit with Gina Carano. | ||
Stuff like Pedro Pascal posting literally the same thing, calling half of America, you I'm fine with all this because all this is stuff that Gina will be able to point to and say that, hey, well, it's not that I talked about politics. | ||
It's that I talked about politics that Disney didn't like, and that's how she's going to win her lawsuit, I think. | ||
I hope so. | ||
She got past Discovery, which is awesome. | ||
It's moving forward. | ||
I hope that she wins bigly. | ||
By the way, Elon did officially endorse Trump last night. | ||
I don't know if he had officially done so before. | ||
He did make a shot. | ||
I'm hoping we get more white pills and the cacklementum slows down a little bit. | ||
Trump's got to get out there. | ||
Do some more live streams. | ||
Bring Benny down there and Alex and the quartering. | ||
And then also, you know, some actual cool people. | ||
Bring some of those down too. | ||
And, you know, no more of these. | ||
I wrote a song about Mega and I want to get number one platinum record. | ||
Real people with real audiences who motivate them to go vote. | ||
And I think that would be important. | ||
And actual audiences that are kinetic and like real. | ||
And that comment, like the chat. | ||
You know, we just freaking shout out to the chat. | ||
Love the chat. | ||
We love you. | ||
We thank you. | ||
I clearly love Jeremy. | ||
Yeah, shout out chat. | ||
Yeah, what's up chat? | ||
So I want to just give a final... | ||
Can't kill an idea, so the final thing I want to say, and I want your take on it, is I personally believe that they know that they have horrible damaged goods here. | ||
And they're just looking to get... | ||
I think you look at, like, what Kamala's doing. | ||
I'm not sure she's exactly running a general election campaign. | ||
I gotta be honest with you. | ||
These events that they're doing are closed. | ||
So this is my take on this, alright? | ||
These events they're doing are closed. | ||
They're not general admission events. | ||
You can't sign up. | ||
You have to get an invitation. | ||
They're not going to, like, convince the people. | ||
This is the ultimate white pill. | ||
Are you ready? | ||
The ultimate white pill. | ||
I need it, man. | ||
Alright, here we go. | ||
I never wear a hat. | ||
We gotta put on our Kid Rock hat to do the ultimate white pill. | ||
So, So, these aren't real events. | ||
They're doing events in, like, Indiana and Minnesota. | ||
She picks Tim Walz. | ||
And the reason she picks Tim Walz is, apparently, Josh Shapiro kind of, like, eased back. | ||
And what I believe is going to happen is they have the knives out for Trump. | ||
I think that they're gonna... | ||
She's not smart enough to understand, but they're going to actually run her into the ground. | ||
And they're gonna lose maybe, like, by a little. | ||
But they're still going to lose, and they want to set themselves up. | ||
Trump's only one term. | ||
I mean, what an incredible shot on goal. | ||
You guarantee that Trump can't run again. | ||
Trump's just off the political field. | ||
You tie him up in lawfare, and you tie him up in impeachments throughout his entire next term. | ||
You get a chance to really message against MAGA again. | ||
And this is their game plan, and they want to then retool for 2028. | ||
And they like build their ground game and build up like a Josh Shapiro or something. | ||
And then they go in for 2028 to like kind of... | ||
I think that's the ultimate white pill for this election at least. | ||
That's the strategy. | ||
Kamala's damaged goods. | ||
Biden is damaged goods. | ||
We can't lose enough humiliation. | ||
We don't want the narrative that we've lost forever. | ||
We just need to lose by a little less. | ||
We know Kamala ain't going to do it. | ||
She has too much baggage. | ||
She's a sacrificial lamb that we shove out there. | ||
It's super humiliating, but we do our best to shore up our base, right? | ||
Let them know we're still here, and Trump's going to win. | ||
I'll accept that white pill and add a secondary grayish pill and say that I agree. | ||
I hope you're right. | ||
But also, I think that... | ||
Part of their strategy also is that they were worried about the down-ballot destruction that Joe Biden would have caused. | ||
Yes. | ||
Not just that it would have been humiliating. | ||
It would have been like they would have got crushed in the Senate races, in the House races, the local races. | ||
Kamala, I think, like you said, makes him look a little more competitive. | ||
Probably, like you said, preserves the reputation a little bit. | ||
They get to just say, well, America was racist and sexist again. | ||
They didn't vote for Kamala. | ||
And we'll see. | ||
Hey. | ||
If I can offer an option, Minnesota is an open primary state today, and Ilion Omar is running for re-election. | ||
That's going on today. | ||
Could be a second squad member down. | ||
Third squad member down. | ||
There's that, and I think people are going to activate. | ||
I think it's going to be like 2016 again. | ||
Trump's going to be losing until he wins. | ||
I think that's how it's going to shake out, and then even after he wins. | ||
They'll come out and say, now Iran is their new one. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, Iran was hacking the election again. | |
I think there are some people who actually want Kamala to lose that are really, really close with her. | ||
I think Obama actually wants Kamala to lose. | ||
They don't want to have to deal with Kamala. | ||
No, I don't think Obama likes her. | ||
I don't think he does. | ||
They basically had to get pressured into endorsing her. | ||
Right. | ||
Right. | ||
It's going to be the Washington Generals, right? | ||
Like, who lose against the Harlem Globetrotters, but they come out and they take the field. | ||
Like, the goal is to lose, but to lose, like, without losing everything, right? | ||
Yeah. | ||
And so this is the ultimate white pill. | ||
So there we go. | ||
That's it. | ||
Jeremy, we have your channel up here. | ||
Please shout it out. | ||
Of course, everyone knows the quartering, but if you don't... | ||
Yes, please do. | ||
Follow the quartering. | ||
I'm live every day at 1 Eastern. | ||
So after Benny... | ||
You can come watch my show and then stay entertained on live Monday through Fridays. | ||
On Rumble, please follow me there on YouTube. | ||
Obviously, you can follow me there too, but I prefer Rumble. | ||
And Benny, thanks for having me on. | ||
It was great meeting you at the RNC. | ||
And Alex, you get to harass you at the RNC. | ||
Luke and I tried to pump him for some Elon information. | ||
He remains steadfast and loyal. | ||
And I appreciate you having me on. | ||
And now I'm going to go get ready for my live show. | ||
Best of luck to you all, and I'd love to have you on one day when you're finally free, which probably won't happen until after the election. | ||
We would love that as well. | ||
Our in-house meme maker made you a meme to send you off. | ||
Since you mentioned an interesting theory about Tim Walls, we have this for you. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, here we go. | |
Oh, yeah. | ||
Oh, no. | ||
Oh, Tim, no. | ||
Oh, they know. | ||
unidentified
|
They know. | |
They know. | ||
The horses know. | ||
They're like, stay away from me. | ||
Yeah, poor Tim. | ||
Tampon Tim. | ||
He's another guy, like you said, Shapiro. | ||
I'm going to go, but I would say Shapiro didn't want to lose. | ||
If he backed out, it was because he thought she was going to lose. | ||
If he thought she was going to win, he'd take it. | ||
At least I would assume. | ||
Thanks for having me on. | ||
See ya, Jeremy. | ||
Everyone follow the quartering. | ||
Sorry, guys, for the quick out. | ||
See you here boys. | ||
unidentified
|
See you. | |
you you Alright. | ||
Whoa! | ||
That was rowdy! | ||
Rockin' and rollin'. | ||
I noticed consistently everybody was like... | ||
We're loving this and we watch the chat like a hawk while we're live. | ||
And so, you know, if you don't love a guest or you don't like what we do, we want to do a little more. | ||
Let us know if you like this, but like we want to do a little more like freeform conversation, a little more like streamers and online personalities in here. | ||
I know it's very important to have members of Congress, members of Senate, people running for president, people come on the show, like people ask, people are banging down our door. | ||
To come on this program because, well, I mean, honestly, it's a great way to get your message out there. | ||
It's because of you and we say thank you. | ||
But we also want to like stay entertaining and keep the conversations more with more like online inertia and less like corporate box, you know, Fox box, kind of like stand up and this is what we're going to do with the budgetary. | ||
New, HB175. | ||
We don't really book guests like that anyway, but we want to break out of the box a little bit. | ||
So Jeremy was just on for what, like an hour? | ||
Like, this is amazing. | ||
So Jeremy was just on for an hour. | ||
We love Jeremy, and I'm sure you followed his channel as well. | ||
We want to do more of that, right? | ||
Like, more of that. | ||
That is like streamer culture, actually. | ||
And so we're trying here to build, much like... | ||
If there's a big breaking news event, you know our channel will be live. | ||
We're trying to build a channel that serves you the very best. | ||
Also, those conversations are really fun. | ||
You can't take a member of the Armed Services Committee, not knocking the Armed Services Committee, but talk to them about Megan Thee Stallion and how excited Tim Waltz gets when he heard that there was going to be a stallion at a Kamala Harris event. | ||
And then he was so sad to find out it was just a rapper. | ||
Right? | ||
Like, you know, you can't make that joke. | ||
Right? | ||
Because Mr. Armed Services Committee is going to be like... | ||
unidentified
|
More war! | |
Yeah. | ||
So anyway, we're just trying to mix it up. | ||
That is the spice of life. | ||
Speaking of very, very spicy lives, as we had just mentioned, we were live all night last night. | ||
We are live during breaking news events all the time. | ||
You maybe saw me drinking from my tank shell of a mug here, available at the Benny store, at BennyJohnson.com, with the official Brigade Artillery mug, made by Liberty Mugs, which is so awesome. | ||
Of course, inside is going to be my blackout coffee. | ||
Y 'all know. | ||
It's the blackout coffee that keeps us going. | ||
It's the blackout coffee that fills our veins and that keeps them pumping with the energy to fight the communists and do two-hour live shows and go live whenever. | ||
Like, this is the blackout coffee, the reason why we love blackout coffee. | ||
One, it's local. | ||
It's, like, from America. | ||
Two, it's owned by patriots who love this place. | ||
And three, 0% grift. | ||
A lot of these other, uh... | ||
Coffee companies are quite woke. | ||
Even the ones that you wouldn't assume would be woke are actually quite literally woke. | ||
So ladies and gentlemen, go to blackoutcoffee.com. | ||
Be awake, not woke. | ||
blackoutcoffee.com slash Benny. | ||
That's blackoutcoffee.com slash Benny. | ||
Promo code Benny gets you 20% off your first order. | ||
Just a great cup of coffee, baby. | ||
Available also on Public Square, our dear friends at Public Square. | ||
Doing God's work out here. | ||
Okay, doing God's work out here. | ||
We teased it in the open, and so we've got to cover it, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
Donald Trump will sue the Department of Justice for $100 million for the Mar-a-Lago raid, allowing political persecution. | ||
I don't exactly know what portion of the law covers that. | ||
Maybe the Civil Rights Act? | ||
I'm not exactly sure. | ||
But Donald Trump did drop a bombshell lawsuit on the DOJ yesterday. | ||
Let's go ahead and see. | ||
What the news is saying about it, and more importantly, what can we find in Discovery? | ||
That'll be fun. | ||
Let's go. | ||

|
The former president taking new legal action in relation to his handling of classified documents in that case. | |
That's right, Brett. | ||
Lawyers for former President Trump tell Fox they filed a notice that they intend to sue the Department of Justice and the FBI for $100 million over the August 2022 raid of his Mar-a-Lago estate for classified documents. | ||
Trump's lawyers claim the raid-violated protocol was, quote, unconstitutional and should never have been approved by Attorney General Merrick Garland or FBI Director Christopher Wray. | ||
The Justice Department declined to comment but has six months to respond. | ||
It's a Trump's claim. | ||
Okay. | ||
Here's some of the documents coming from our dear friend, Julie Kelly, somebody we love having on the program. | ||
Julie Kelly saying that there's going to be some really wild discovery here and that you're going to be able to see exactly how biased the president is, the government is against the president, and how terrified they are of Donald Trump getting back in. | ||
And, like, isn't that something we should all do together? | ||
Yeah, man. | ||
We should totally do that together. | ||
This is what the show is all about. | ||
Like, what can we... | ||
What can we facilitate? | ||
There have been some huge victories and some big wins on this program by all of us together saying, hey, listen, do a real investigation of the Trump assassination. | ||
Ronna McRomney, you shouldn't be RNC chairwoman. | ||
You're bad at your job. | ||
Go away. | ||
We've had some big Ws. | ||
We really look forward to bringing you President Trump. | ||
This is not an announcement. | ||
This is simply an announcement of... | ||
Me announcing that we had President Trump's spokesperson on the show, Carolyn Lovett, dear friend. | ||
And she was saying, Benny, you're up. | ||
You'll do a stream with President Trump. | ||
She said it. | ||
We have it on tape, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
She said it. | ||
We have it on tape. | ||
So we need to deliver on that. | ||
Donald Trump's doing these major streams. | ||
He's doing these massive... | ||
You know, he's doing these massive, show me the Aiden Ross, I want to see Aiden Ross dancing with Trump again. | ||
He's doing these massive streams across the internet. | ||
We mentioned it, so we might as well say it. | ||
And for those of you watching on Facebook, we say thank you. | ||
We love our 2 million person plus audience on Facebook. | ||
We love you and care about you. | ||

Mark Zuckerberg talking about Trump. | |
And that includes, you know, not endorsing either of the candidates. | ||
Now, look, I mean, there's obviously a lot of crazy stuff going on in the world. | ||
I mean, the historic events over the last, like, over the weekend. | ||
And, I mean, on a personal note, it's, you know, I mean, seeing Donald Trump get up after getting shot in the face and pump his fist in the air with the American flag is one of the most badass things I've ever seen in my life. | ||
But, look, I mean, it's, you know, as... | ||
And I think, look, at some level, as an American, it's like... | ||
Hard to not get kind of emotional about that spirit and that fight, and I think that that's why a lot of people like the guy. | ||
That is so awesome. | ||
We're not going to do some major show and, like, be complimentary. | ||
We are going to, though, like, call balls and strikes. | ||
And that is a, that is, like, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, these guys are billionaires. | ||
These people are, they're changing culture. | ||
This is the cultural power that they're so scared about. | ||
So let's do more. | ||
We will dance with President Trump. | ||
We want to bring him live on the stream. | ||
Tweet, post on X. Hey, Trump, do Benny's show. | ||
Like, we promised to bring you something similar to this. | ||
In fact, everybody who works at the show can tell you I have been, like, obsessed technologically with getting the capacity to do something like this and even, like, more cool. | ||
Getting the technology to really do quite an immersive event with President Trump. | ||
And so that's our promise to you. | ||
We say thank you for supporting us even when we can't be online like yesterday, as we explained at the beginning of the show. | ||
This is about protecting our families. | ||
This is about protecting the point of the program. | ||
It's about creating a... | ||
A better place for our families. | ||
And sometimes the responsibility of a father is literally to just stop everything. | ||
When your kids are in the hospital, all time and space, like, stand still. | ||
And you see one single goal. | ||
And so, again, ladies and gentlemen, we're deeply thankful for your prayers. | ||
And we stay grounded in our faith. | ||
We witnessed a miracle. | ||
My family witnessed a miracle. | ||
This weekend. | ||
And we are thankful to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, for that. | ||
It's why we do a verse of the day every single day. | ||
From Job! | ||
Oh yeah, baby, let's go. | ||
Job! | ||
The Old Testament, let's roll him out. | ||
But if I were you, I would appeal to God. | ||
I would lay my cause before him. | ||
He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted. | ||
Lay our appeals before God. | ||
Giving advice being given to Job by wise men. | ||
And then God hears us, right? | ||
Knock and the door will be opened. | ||
Like ask and ask in repetition. | ||
Seek and you will find. | ||
Ask and it will be given unto you. | ||
And we live like that. | ||
We live like that and we know ultimately the victory is ours. | ||
So all of this stuff, it's fun to fight about. | ||
It's very interesting to watch. | ||
There's never been a more interesting time in American politics, ever. | ||
It's very interesting to watch. | ||
It's fun to be part of. | ||
We wish to bring this all to you as best as we possibly can. | ||
We thank you for supporting us, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
Go to the Benny Brigade, BennyJohnson.com. | ||
You can sign up to be part of our Benny Brigade and support our work here and our mission here, which is to bring you the best and the most entertaining. | ||
