One being John Cena walking around with covering his, what was it, at the Oscars?
You know, it was just costume.
He covered his crotch.
It was humiliating to say the least.
There's some news that came up about Tates today, the UK is going after them.
And, you know, it's not pretty.
And all these stories, they're all coming out at the same time.
We'll respond to that.
Jimmy Kimmel mocks Robert Downey Jr. with his drug problems at the Oscars after the night where the guy wins as first ever Oscar classless.

One guy over Israel's war of self-defense against Hamas.
Trump was at the UFC.
We were there.
We had 25-hour guys there.
We'll tell you some stories here on what happened, what the experience was like.
We were sitting right next to Dana, Trump, Sage, Candace.
It was a great time.
Trump says a TikTok ban would empower Meta, slams Facebook as enemy of the people.
Interesting angle of now not banning TikTok.
De Niro says and panics, if Trump wins, he'll come looking for me.
And he says Trump is so mean, he would never portray him in a film.
Give me a break.
And he portrayed killer names.
Murderer.
Murder named him.
But he won't do it.
Maybe don't be an asshole.
Yeah.
Biden says he's regretting using the word illegal during the State of the Union, but not getting the name wrong.
But the illegal, God forbid.
You know, you say illegal instead of undocumented.
Nancy, I think it was written up.
It was an HR violation he had to go through, which was very upsetting.
Bill Maher urges Biden to dump Kamala for Nikki Haley for unity, which, by the way, kind of strategic, but wait to see what he said about it.
The Pope says Ukraine should have courage of the white flag of negotiations.
The Pope is telling Ukraine to kick it and give up and give their land back to Russia.
Is that really what the Pope is saying?
And maybe the Pope is also saying to send some transgenders to war as well.
Who knows?
But anyway, CNN panel pushes back against a guest who says rising crime is a rating thing.
And they lost their mind.
You should see that one right there.
Fire Department, New York, looking into staff who booed New York AG.

They're looking for him.
You better come out or else we're going to come and get you.

Ryan Garcia broke his promise on Twitter and he's back on troubling tirate on Instagram live again and maybe we'll comment on that.
Bernie Sanders says no money, no more money for Netanyahu's war machine, no more, but send it to Zelensky.
But God forbid we send it to Netanyahu.
That's what Sanders said.

Vinny's not convinced that's true, but maybe we'll talk about it.
David Sachs says Biden's big backfire is Ukraine.
Woke War 3 possible.

Very respectful.
University students' parents hire private campus security guards amid crime concerns.
Can you imagine your kids go to college and you're hiring them security to go to UC Berkeley?
Honey, can you get him some bodyguards?
You go to class with like three people.
You and the two security guards.
Can you imagine?
Yeah.
Americans don't care as much about work anymore, and it isn't just Gen Z. Boeing whistleblower, very, very weird, folks.
John Barnett found dead days after testifying against company and dead spin.
You remember that one company that made fun of that kid and they only showed pictures from one angle because he had the black face.
Well, those guys apparently went out of business and some company started up out of Europe or something bottom.
That's a CNN story.
And then we got a couple other stories we'll share with you.
Peepette's husband was out there doing some stuff with kids, indoctrinating them.
That we'll get into that as well.
But let's get right into the first one here with Trump and what happened this weekend at UFC.
Donald Trump rocks UFC.
Crowd goes wild.
Former President Donald Trump, the presumptive GOP nominee for president 2024, appeared at the UFC fight on Saturday night at Casey Center in Miami, Florida, where a sold-out crowd went wild as he entered the stadium.
As Trump walked in alongside Dana White, the event organizer gave him a walk-in music and the crowd went insane.
It says wild, but I want to say insane.
Some reporters even noticed, noted that the crowd shouted USA and F. Joe Biden, when Trump appeared earlier in the day, Trump rallied with supporters in Georgia.
So this guy, I'm with Dana in the back.
We're in the back with Dana with a bunch of different guys having great conversations.
And Dana says, you won't believe who texted me last night at 2:30.
I said, Who?
He says, Trump texts me at 2:30 saying, Look, I'm in Georgia doing a rally.
I'm going to try to make it.
Okay.
He says, Then I get a text from him eight o'clock in the morning saying I'm still trying to make it because the rally is going to be in Atlanta.
Then that day, we're at the cigar lounge at the comedy club, 5990 Live.
Guys on the bus are like, He's not going to be at the UFC tonight because he's still talking at 6 p.m.
He's still talking in Atlanta.
So the team's like, you know, because everybody's trying to see, is this guy going to come?
Is that guy going to come?
Because Joe Burrow and all these guys are going to be there.
Anyways, you go to the fight.
Next thing you know, 10 o'clock.
All of a sudden, the place goes wild.
10:30, something like that.
And you look up, yep, it's him.
All the phones are on with the lights.
He walks in.
Rob, if you want to just kind of show the entrance just for like 15 seconds quick, Rob, can you go to the video on Twitter without the music of what we did with the truck?
If you can go to my Twitter account, and we got this flag, guys.
I had this idea.
I saw this guy with this truck with a 30-foot flag on his car.
I said, We have to get this flag.
Anyways, our camp reaches out to him.
This guy was nice enough to say, Don't worry about getting a flag.
How about take my flag?
Wow.
Anyways, we work it out.
This is Vinny, right?
So we show up.
Look at that guy.
How did you hire this male model?
Dude, that guy.
Look at this hot male model.
By the way, I almost trucked your truck surfing.
Look at this.
So, first of all, this isn't for Lauderdale.
This is not at the fight.
But look at the size of the flag in the truck, right?
And Vinny's on top on top of it.
Anyways, we're at the UFC with Chris, Cuomo, and all these guys, TikRun.
We're in the back of the guys, we got to get this thing lined up.
Sam's in the car.
We pull over.
I don't even know where we are to put the flag on.
Sam just randomly pulled over.
He goes, right here, guys, by an apartment complex.
We pull up in front of the UFC with the flag.
The crew knew.
The UFC knew.
They had us a spot in the back.
At the end, when we're leaving, there's a thousand people at Valley.
They're seeing this flag screaming USA, USA, USA.
And then while we get into the arena, Rob, can you pull up that go lower on my profile if you can?
So we go a little lower right there.
Pull up the picture right there.
This is us.
We're sitting right in between Dana and Trump, literally the first seat in between of Gola Lore on the video.
And this is the handshake, the famous Trump handshake that.
That's the back of my neck.
That's the back of my neck.
That's Vinny taking it.
Go ahead.
There it is.
Boy.
How's your shoulder?
Yo, by the way.
Are you ready for this?
And I told you yesterday, I figured out the Trump handshake method.
What is it?
Tell us.
If you're my height, if you're like 5'8 or you're a female, he shakes and he gives you a little nice, like you're cute.
Like I'm cute.
You're a female.
I'm a female to him.
Right?
Then if you get a little bit taller, like Pat, he'll bring you in and kind of let you know, like, hey, I'm tall too.
But if you're bigger, like Nick Bosa, he does the arm shake and then slaps the shit out of you to let you know, like, Nick Bosa is a mammoth.
I've never, by the way, Trump is there talking.
I was like this.
His neck muscle was bigger than my arm.
He was never running around.
He looks like Joe Burrow.
He looks like the Hulk coming back down.
Oh my God.
This guy's a monster.
What's crazy?
That was the first time you've ever actually shook his head.
Shook hands?
Yes.
Like that, yes.
We've never had an interaction.
I've been to events, but I've never had interaction with him.
What?
What's crazy?
Yo, shout out to D guy.
He put us right behind, literally, right behind him.
And I must say, Trump, when the fights are going, he's watching every single moment, focus.
And then how many times did he get up?
He didn't say no to one person to shake his hand.
And, bro, just the energy of that place, he's the truth.
Well, he looked at Cuomo and I were just a few feet over.
He gave us one of these.
Oh, really?
I at least respect.
At least, you know, he looks like a lot of people.
Shout out, baby.
It's on.
And the right people are finding each other.
And this election is about to get real.
It is important for America.
It's important for capitalism.
And it's about to get real.
And take a look at the energy at the UFC and look at the energy in those videos, Pat, from Georgia.
And then take a look at the Biden pep rally in the small high school gymnasium in Georgia.
And tell me, you don't have a flashback to 2016 when Hillary was doing picnic rallies in backyards.
Let me say one thing about this, and then I want to go into the story that he has with TikTok and why he doesn't think we should ban TikTok.
Do you know, in the world of competition, there's a lot of different types of people you face that you're competing.
Interestingly so, if you're patient enough, it takes about 10 years to realize who real competition is.
Because most people are going to come in, they'll fizzle out and they'll go.
This guy competed for six months and he beat you.
Year later, couldn't last.
He quit, right?
Two years, boom, they fizzle out.
Three years, boom, they fizzle out.
Five years, they fizzle out.
There is nothing more intimidating.
Literally, there's nothing more intimidating.
Four things I figured out, right?
Outwork, out improve, out-strategize, outlast.
Outwork, fine.
Out-improve, great.
Out-strategize comes with time.
Outlast, nothing is more intimidating where you put the fear of death in your competition if you can outlast them.
Nothing.
Because your competition is sitting there saying, man, that guy's going to slow down because there's no way he can go after this and this.
And no one's, by the way, if anybody said, well, he's not going to make it because he's giving a talk in Atlanta.
Nobody would have said anything.
Nobody would have said anything.
They're like, yeah, of course, he's giving a talk in Atlanta.
But when you have someone that all of a sudden is able to be at five different places at the same time and show up, forget about guys.
Forget whether you like him or not.
It's like McCain going up against Obama.
You know, it could be anything.
Obama was everywhere, okay, campaigning.
Forget about whether you like the competitor or not, whether you agree with his policies or not.
Try outlasting this man named Donald J. Trump.
If you do, good for you.
If you don't, he's going to beat you.
And he's a very unique character because he was up there till two o'clock in a morning.
You know when he left the arena?
When the fight was done.
Ivanka was sitting right there.
Kushner was right there.
Their son was there for Ivanka told me it was their son's first fight ever.
First fight.
And it was interesting, that whole dynamic.
Rogan's here, Cormier, John, but very, very unique experience.
It was great.
But if you've never been to a UFC, we're planning on taking next year.
I wouldn't be surprised if we took 100 people to the UFC.
I told Dana, I said, Dana, I may take 100 next year.
And I got to give a shout out to our guy, Dustin Poirier.
Oh, my God.
Amazing.
Also, Sugar Sean.
John Mali was a title card.
That knee to the face, because we were there.
I thought he broke his skull.
It was just bow.
And then, dude, by the way, give it up to Vera.
Vera's chin, he didn't in the arena.
It sounded like something shattered.
No, it sounded like his face broke.
You're like, really?
No, no, no.
You hear the sound.
Everybody thought his face cracked.
Yeah.
It was bad.
Is it that uncomfortable sound that you heard?
But it was a great thing.
And it was interesting.
Only in Miami do you hear the chants for the I think he's from Ecuador.
I want to say they were going crazy for Cheek.
But most importantly, what did Dilly boy say about Joe Burrow?
Oh my gosh.
So let me tell you, man, Dilly doesn't even know because Joe Burrow comes up.
He's standing right in front of me.
He says, oh, shit, what's up?
How you doing?
I said, what's up, Joe?
And we had a nice conversation.
I said, Joe, not only are we the biggest fans of yours, my son dresses like you.
And by the way, for some people that, Rob, can you show this picture?
Because we really, really like Joe.
Joe is because Bolsa's talking to Trump, and he's just standing there and looks at Pam and goes, hey.
And they're having a comment.
I go, photo?
He goes, hell yeah.
Puts on his slick glasses.
Rob, let me send this to you.
This is how much Dilly loves Joe.
That's his guy, Burrow.
Yeah, but listen, I mean, Dylan on Jersey Day, this is what he wears.
Rob, I just send it to you.
So I messaged Joe.
I said, Joe, it was great seeing you.
And no, Burrow.
Burrow.
I said, it was great seeing you.
I said, this is how much people tell you they're fans, but this is a picture of Dylan dressed as you on Jersey Day.
And he says, I got to get him in the right jersey.
That's not the right jersey for him to wear.
Anyway, so Dylan has no clue what's going to happen.
And Dylan doesn't listen to this podcast because he should be in school right now.
Exactly.
That's where he should be.
Yeah, he's not doing that.
If you're listening, look at his little stuff.
Look at that little guy.
Dude, this guy is just.
And by the way, no one told him to get those glasses.
Nothing.
That's on him.
By the way, he's been picking his clothes since he was a year and a half.
Really?
Dylan's been picking his clothes since he was a year and a half.
Mr. Beast was there.
Logan Paul.
That's all these guys.
It was a good event.
Against dynamic.
If you're listening, if you're Rob, can you do a quick poll?
I actually really wonder how many people have not been to a UFC fight.
Just say, have you ever been to a UFC fight?
Yes, no.
That's it.
I just want to know how many people have, how many people have not.
Tom, it was your first ever fight.
You've been to when the Dodgers won, when the home run, the Steve.
I was at the Gibson home run.
Yeah, I have it took.
I took my grandmother.
I remember that stadium coming apart.
You've been to a lot of crazy events.
Yep.
How different was this as your first UFC fight?
This is the loudest indoor arena event.
Most people have probably been.
Seriously, seriously.
This was the loudest indoor arena event I have ever heard.
Tom, look at this.
This is insane.
2,100 people just voted right now.
90% have never been to a fight.
I was going to say 20-20.
Well, let me tell you.
Let me tell you, here's what we're going to do.
Here's what we're going to do.
I don't even know what the next UFC fight is.
Okay.
I don't even know what the next UFC fight is.
I think it's UFC.
And you're kind of Vegas.
Can you tell Sam and Karina, whoever it is, to bring those three new hats?
Sam knows what it is.
The International Woman's Day.
Here's what we're going to do.
Okay.
And I don't even know.
I cannot, if you've never been 5%.
Here's what we're going to do.
Here's what we're going to do.
Okay.
Here's what we're going to do.
Anybody that places, and I got three new gears to show you, okay, right now.
If they can put it on the side, Rob, and have them bring it in, because it was supposed to be here.
We're going to buy some hang tight.
Just when they bring it in, I'll tell you what it is.
But this is what we're going to do.
Anybody that places an order of, let's say, $50 or more, minimum one future looks bright hat, because I want a million people this year wearing this gear.
There was so many people in the arena independently wearing the future looks bright gear.
And it's so confusing for people who are pessimistic when they see somebody say the future looks bright.
But this is what I'm going to do.
Anybody that places an order of $50 or more, okay, between now and Thursday, but specifically anyone that places an order, for every $50 you place an order, you get one ticket in the drawing.
And I'm going to get, I don't know, I'm going to get four tickets to the next UFC fight.
Wow.
Okay.
I don't even know where the next UFC fight is.
UFC 300.
And I'm going to give two people two UFC tickets.
Rob, if you can give me those, Sam, just bring it to me.
Just bring it to me.
It's okay.
And here's what we got.
These are the things that we have right now for International Women's Day.
We just got these pink Future Looks Bright hats that are here.
Sambel, are these on the site?
So Rob has, let's make sure they're on the site.
We got these two Future Looks Bright women's hat, pink, to choose from.
And then we got the new Navy blue, Navy blue.
If you're like a police officer, we got the new Navy blue Future Looks Bright.
Let's make sure.
And these are on the site.
Rob, can you show these things being on the site?
You place the order of the hats.
Oh, that blue is sick.
$50 or more.
For every $50, we're going to do a drawing.
And on Thursday, I'm giving away four UFC tickets.
That's the one, right?
The Navy Blue.
And then Sambel, I don't know if I see the pink one on there.
So if you can make sure that gets on there as well.
But that's what we're going to do.
Make sure you place your order.
Okay.
It's April 13th, Las Vegas.
Perfect.
There you go.
April 13th, Las Vegas.
I'm going to give away four tickets.
If you've never been, what is the poll still, Rob?
Can you go back to, I cannot believe 90%.
I am not shocked.
5,000 people voted.
91% have never been to a fight.
I'd never been to a UFC fight until you took us last year.
There's no way you can live life without going to a UFC fight.
You have to go experience what Dana's put together.
It's absolutely insane.
It's like a gladiator arena.
Like a Rome.
I will say this.
As loud as the entrance was for Trump this time around, last year, I think was even crazier because it was completely unexpected.
Remember that?
We had no idea that he was walking through the arena.
It erupted.
This year, pretty similar, but last year when Masfidol was fighting, it was insane.
So okay, so let's go into the next.
So, anyways, that story is going to be there.
You guys place the order 50 bucks or higher.
We'll do the raffle and we'll give away four tickets to UFC, specifically for people that haven't gone.
And by the way, here's what I would say: the first hundred people that place an order, the first hundred people that place an order, I'll throw in a future looks bright shirt in the package for the people that are placing an order.
The first 100 people that place an order.
So make sure you go sport your gear.
The future looks bright.
I just love when people look in and say, Do you really think the future that yesterday I put the comment, the future looks bright.
Stephen A. Smith responds.
Can you go?
And I texted him yesterday.
If you go to the post with me, Trump, and Dana, go onto that Instagram.
If you ever go on Instagram, Rob, if you go on Instagram, on Instagram, he responds, he says, not to me, meaning the future doesn't look bright to him.
And I responded to him and I said something because I think a lot of right there, it says, not to me.
I'll send a screenshot.
If you go lower, you'll find him right there.
I said, the future looks bright.
He says, not to me.
We lose either way, no matter who wins.
And I responded.
I don't know if you're going to be able to find it, but I responded and I said the following to him.
I said, Stephen A, brother, that just means you need to spend more time around us.
We'll get you believing in the future being bright again.
Much love.
The future looks so bright in my opinion, but we got to do our fight.
So anyways, if you're somebody that's also optimistic, go support the gear.
Go to vtmerch.com.
Buy some of the hats, the new gear, the pink, the navy blue one.
Let's show the world what we're all about.
Let's confuse the audience into becoming positive again.
Let's go on to the next story.
All right.
Trump says a TikTok ban would empower Meta, slams Facebook as enemy of the state.
Okay, he slams Facebook as being enemy the state.
Why is he saying this?
This is a CNBC story.
Without TikTok, you can make Facebook bigger, and I consider Facebook to be an enemy of the people, Trump said.
Acknowledging his concerns around national security and data privacy over TikTok, Trump said, there's a lot of good and there's a lot of bad with the platform.
There are a lot of people on TikTok that love it.
There are a lot of young kids on TikTok who will go crazy without it.
If China wants anything from TikTok, they will give it.
So that's a national security risk goes up, Trump acknowledged.
But when I look at it, I'm not looking to make Facebook double the size.
And if you ban TikTok, Facebook and others, mostly Facebook, will be a big beneficiary.
And I think Facebook has been very busy.
I think Facebook has been a very, very bad for our country, especially when it comes down to elections.
Interesting, Tom, thoughts.
Well, what's very interesting about this, this is in the news.
This all started.
This all started last week when 50 members of the U.S. House Committee on Energy and Commerce.
Remember, they go into committees before they go on the, and all the congressmen vote, all 438 of them, all that number go and vote.
50 members, U.S. House Committee on Energy and Commerce, voted to bring to the floor, ban TikTok in the following way.
They must sell it to a U.S. company in 165 days or it must be removed from the app stores.
So this is all 50 members.
So this is not partisan.
There's Democrats and Republicans in these committees.
And they all came out and said, yeah, all 50 of us say 165 days, sell the U.S. company or ban it.
And now it's going to come to the House floor vote.
So watch that this week.
So what that smells to me, not one person dissented.
It feels like, you know, Meta is one of the biggest lobbyists in Washington, one of the biggest.
And I feel like there is the Chinese ownership thing.
It's an election year, and we got this anti-China sentiment, but it feels kind of political to me, even though I agree that all the data that's going back to China on TikTok is really bad.
Yeah, and didn't Zuckerberg give to Biden 200 million?
How much was it?
Last the 2020 election?
Stack of money.
I think he was like 200 million.
Rob, if you could check that, I'd appreciate it.
But when it cut like this type of thing with Trump, I know everybody's like, oh, you're just a blind follower.
No, I don't agree with the fact that, and I understand what Facebook is doing and they're very, very biased and political, wanting to save TikTok for the benefit of being anything against Facebook.
I don't agree with that.
Because that's China-owned.
That's China that's influencing the kids, that's brainwashing the children, that's doing all these TikTok challenges where they're what, drinking Nyquil and chicken and a kid just died recently.
I don't agree with it at all.
And I think it will empower them.
But everybody thought that Snapchat was going to be empowered, but their stock didn't budge.
Went up like a point and a half and then required the nonprofit that distributed most of the 350 million dollar in donations from Facebook under from UH.
Founder Zuck elections offices in 2020 said monday that it won't disperse similar donations similar.
What does that mean?
Maybe 290 this year, after backlash from conservatives, suspicious that the contribute contributions tilted the outcome of the presidential race towards Joe Biden.
Instead, the Center FOR Technology Instead, the Center FOR Technology, Civic LIFE is launching a different program dubbed the U.S. Alliance for Election Excellence, the $80 million out of five-year effort is intended to create, okay, which means the $80 million is going today.
Adam, what are your thoughts on this?
Well, look, this is concerning.
And there's a lot of people saying that this is actually a selfish move by Trump, Steve Bannon actually being one of them.
What do you mean you don't want to sell TikTok?
He was the guy that brought this up.
Like to Trump's credit, he was the one in 2020 that made an executive order trying to get ByteDance to sell TikTok out of the CCP control to possibly Oracle, possibly an American company.
He was the guy.
So now what has changed since then?
Well, I mean, the obvious is he's calling Facebook the enemy of the state.
Could it be that Meta banned him after January 6th?
So it seems a little counterintuitive why Donald Trump, who was the person that made this the focal point, made this the issue, has now reversed course.
He did an executive order.
It was blocked by the court.
And I don't understand why he's doing this now.
So there's people out there saying, well, he's only caring about himself.
He's vindictive and he's selfish.
Steve Bannon being one of them, Steve Bannon suggests that Donald Trump has been bought.
What's going on with that?
So Trump was absolutely right in 2020 to say that it's a national security.
What does Bannon actually say?
Rob, is there anything Bannon says?
Like, what are his words?
What is he saying when he's saying he's being bought?
So now Newsbeak, well, Ben Tanzania's incentives.
Yeah, but what is, there's nothing about Steve Bannon here.
So what is he saying?
If we can get to his quote, if you get right.
I think you got to look at this a little deeper.
And it doesn't, you don't have to go that deep.
Trump is not saying, I like TikTok.
Trump is not saying I want to help TikTok.
Trump said, if China wants anything from TikTok, they, TikTok, are going to give it to them.
So that's a national security risk that goes up, quote unquote, Donald J. Trump.
He acknowledged it.
But if you ban TikTok, Facebook and others, mostly Facebook, will be a beneficiary.
And I think Facebook's been very busy trying to do this.
And I think that's bad for our country.
So what Trump is saying is TikTok is bad.
They're giving stuff.
If China wants anything from TikTok like data, that's bad.
That's not a security risk.
But if you ban them, look what's going to happen to Meta and Facebook.
So Trump is actually saying both, saying these guys are bad.
We don't want data going to China.
But remember, just like if you kill a dictator and you don't put a government in place, maybe we know something about that in the United States, then something's going to come in and fill the vacuum.
And that thing is going to be Facebook.
And that's equally bad.
I think Trump has a very measured statement here.
I don't think he's supporting TikTok.
Everybody's spinning it like he's supporting TikTok.
I don't think he's supporting, but this is a damned if you do, damn if you don't moment because if regardless of what happens, each one of them is going for against Trump.
I mean, they're going against Trump.
TikTok is obviously anti-Trump because it's China.
And Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg and all of Silicon Valley, they hate him.
So what is he?
There's nothing you could do.
To me, it's not about Trump.
This is a national security concern.
I'm removing Trump from the equation.
What's worse?
China and the CCP or Facebook in America.
Yes, we can go onto Facebook.
You know, we saw that the Chinese CEO of TikTok, his name is I don't trust that guy.
He testified before Congress.
He made up a very valid point.
He said, well, look, you know, talking about data and corrupted data, we remember what happened with Facebook and their Cambridge Analytica situation back in 2020.
Valid.
But nothing is more of a national security concern than China, whether it's espionage, whether it's surveillance, whether it's political meandering campaigns.
You see on TikTok what's going viral over the last year?
Hamas videos, Osama bin Laden videos.
PBD, you did a whole video about what TikTok suppresses.
And in China, they suppress anything with Tiananmen Square, Hong Kong protesters.
So let me tell you, because I'm trying to think from the strategic hat, right?
I think this is what he's thinking about.
I think it's timing on when to ban TikTok.
When would the left want TikTok to be banned?
Probably in 2024.
No, no, in 2024, the left, because it's all going to go to Facebook and they know 100% which way Facebook's going to lean and Facebook will silence.
Facebook will do anything and everything to Trump's camp.
The Facebook side will do that.
So Trump is probably sitting there not wanting to give up this chip as a negotiation tool in 2024.
He wants to have the leverage to use TikTok to negotiate in 25.
He doesn't want to negotiate this in 2024 because it's another one of the whenever you're negotiating, like let's just say you're selling a company or buying a company.
There's about 20 markers you're negotiating, right?
So you may negotiate, well, I want to make sure I get paid this much money.
Okay, no problem.
Then we want a 10-year non-compete.
I don't want to have a 10-year non-compete.
Well, then do it for this much money.
But I don't want to do it for that much money.
Well, no shit, Sherlock.
You can't do all of it, right?
So we want to make sure you do this and we want four board seats.
I only want to give you two board seats.
So he's going to lose a very, very, very big negotiating chip if Biden negotiates the TikTok thing today, not him under his regime.
I think that's what it is.
And I don't think he trusts Zuck.
I think Zuck doesn't want him back in the White House.
You know what's going to happen if he's back in the White House?
So Twitter files?
Now you got Facebook files.
And you know, it's not been a good last, you know, God knows how long for Zuck.
Zuck is trying to stay out of this stuff.
But yeah, I can strategically understand why he's doing this.
And it makes sense.
And what a curveball to a lot of people who were expecting him to just say, we got to ban TikTok.
But I get it.
I get why he's doing that.
Can I give you my opinion?
Tear me apart.
Tell me I'm an idiot.
Tell me I'm wrong.
Go ahead.
Go to the comments.
I may do that anyway.
Okay, perfect.
So this is the problem I have with Trump that a lot of people have with Trump.
It's his policies are correct.
I agree with you.
Formerly, he said that we should shut down TikTok.
I agree with him that we should shut down the border.
The challenge is he wants all the credit.
No.
He wants to be the one to shut down TikTok.
He wants to be the one to shut down the border.
I agree with him on the policy.
Right.
100%.
I'll give you my POP on that.
Okay.
Do you know when we're negotiating a contract for software?
Do you know how to meeting last year with three of our guys upstairs?
They're not listening to this because, but, anyways.
And if they listen, they'll know which one I'm talking about.
And they're in the negotiating room and one person wasn't in the room negotiating.
And I'm like, can I ask you guys, why the hell are you guys negotiating this big of a deal without that person being in the room?
Oh, because we thought we could have it.
No, you can't have it.
You're not a negotiator.
Well, what do you mean we're not a negotiator?
You're not a negotiator.
On a good day, you're a five.
You suck at negotiating.
That's not your strength.
I don't want you in the negotiating room because you don't know how to negotiate.
Yesterday we were having a conversation with one of our guys.
Yeah, you know, we have to give these guys $250 million.
He's going to laugh when he listens to this.
What are you talking about?
You think they're worth that much money?
Who's negotiating?
You don't negotiate on my behalf.
No.
So weak negotiators who get too excited cannot be in the negotiating room negotiating a big deal.
All Trump is saying right now is the fact that I don't trust anybody in the room knowing how to leverage and negotiate the power of TikTok.
We can't give this up.
That's what I believe is going on with them.
Okay, and I don't, he's sitting there.
Does he probably want to be able to do the deal because he confidently thinks he's going to get more out of it from China if he negotiates?
That's what I think is going on.
I think that's all it is.
Trust me when I tell you this.
In a negotiation, Tom's been on these calls many, many times with me the last 10 years.
And I'll say, if Moral's negotiating, I lose no sleep over it.
Okay?
Because Moral's watched me 2,000 hours of negotiating.
But if some others are, I worry if they're negotiating.
So it's always about knowing who's in there negotiating on your behalf.
And see, simply, all he's saying is, I don't trust that you guys are going to negotiate a TikTok deal properly right now.
I think that's what he's saying.
Again, I may be wrong, but that's how I process it.
I think you're exactly right.
We can go on to the next one.
I'll just remind people, if when Trump is elected, he will negotiate TikTok ban and he will also negotiate the kryptonite for Facebook, which is FCC Section 230.
And he will.
That is a big thing.
And by the way, do you think this Democrat Congress and do you think the people that were there, excuse me, do you think the Democrats in Congress will negotiate against Meta on Section 230?
No way.
But when Trump gets there, he's going to do both.
And so Facebook becomes a publisher.
TikTok is there.
He neutralizes both.
That is the boss move.
And I think that's what's coming.
Let me give one last little thing.
Because at the end of the day, national security concerns, this is a TikTok official leaked recording.
Here it is.
Ready?
Everything is seen in China.
All the data flows to China.
There is zero daylight between Xi, the CCP, and any private company.
They control everything.
That is the concern.
Whether it's Trump, whether it's Biden, whoever it is, I think they need to break up TikTok, period.
I don't disagree with you.
I fully agree that they have to.
And I think that there's an element, some people agree that, you know, Facebook needs to be, Meta needs to be broken apart, whether it's WhatsApp and Instagram and all this stuff.
There can be that argument made for that.
Great.
There's a time and place for lawyers to go and make their arguments.
But all I'm saying to you is I worry when somebody negotiates.
Like you know when Chris Cuomo and Candace Owens were going and they talked about the Putin thing and that's that thing's been going viral all over the place?
What was the issue is the fact that I don't want Joe Biden negotiating with Putin.
I don't want that.
When you're sending somebody in the boardroom to negotiate, you send the wrong person.
You're going to give up a lot of different things.
You send the right person.
You're going to give up exactly what was the right price and less, and you're going to get more than you thought you were going to get because that person knows how to communicate.
There's a big difference and you can't teach that to everybody.
Some people have it, some people don't.
You simply have to trust the right person.
All right, let's go to the next story here.
Next story here is Jimmy Kimmel.
So first of all, Robert Downey Jr., congratulations, he wins his first Oscars.
But while he's winning his first Oscar, Rob, if you can go to Twitter, that video is on my tweet.
While he's winning his first Oscar, Jimmy Kimmel starts to joke, trying to be funny, and he says the following.
Just listen to this.
And I just want you to tell me if you, maybe I'm wrong.
Maybe my humor sucks.
I didn't find anything funny about what the man said on how he changed his life on the night he's about to win his first Oscar.
And here's what Kimmel says.
Go ahead.
And congratulations to Cillian's co-star Robert Downey Jr., who is this night is.
This is the highest point of Robert Downey Jr.'s long and illustrious career.
Well, one of the highest points.
Scummed up.
Maybe it's funny.
I don't find it funny at all.
Now he's playing it off.
Yeah, he's being a professional.
Was it a two on the nose or is that a drug motion you made?
Just keep going.
Just like, keep on move on.
But look at him.
I mean, look at this guy.
He's so handsome, so talented.
He's won every award there is to win.
Is that an acceptance speech in your pocket, or do you just have a very rectangular penis?
He's acting.
He's acting.
He's acting, meaning he can't stand any of the jokes that are being said.
What are your thoughts when you see something like this?
First of all, I don't know who labeled Jimmy Kimmel a comedian.
Wikipedia has him in there as a comedian.
He is not a comedian.
He's a hack, leftist, propagandist that just, by the way, does anything about him say funny, Pat?
Anything.
On the man show, they were just discussing him and Adam Corolla discussing against women.
And remember, the left is a professional at this.
They could be racist.
They could fat-shame people.
Do you see the video, Rob, I just sent you?
By the way, this is maybe the third or fourth time that from his past, Jimmy Kimmel has done blackface.
He's been racist.
He's fat-shamed.
He's disrespected women.
Nothing happens to him because he's a Democrat.
You get a golden ticket.
I just sent it to you on Slack, Rob.
This is Jimmy Kimmel on Comedy Central.
How is this not cancelable?
That's Blackface Oprah.
That's why I start every morning with a brisk aerobic workout.
Look, he's fat-shaming women.
Workouts are easier when you have a partner.
And he's stopping on a Mexican.
My Marguerite.
Yeah.
Marguerite's soft brown stomach protects my knees and ankles from unnecessary wear and tear.
Nothing much longer, Miss Oprah.
Okay.
Shut up in Spanish.
15 minutes away.
You can stop.
So here's the thing.
Tasteless, you know.
I've never seen that.
But by the way, he did Carl Malone.
He did Blackface.
If any other person did some shit like that, Pat, they're canceled.
All he is is a mouthpiece for the list, just like Stephen Colbert and all these pushers.
So let's play.
Let's be him.
Let's be him.
He's going to say, well, that's comedy, though.
I got you guys talking about it.
That's comedy, right?
I won.
You guys are talking about it.
I won.
So the part where this is, if you're going to tell that joke, you can't get upset at anybody calling your ass out.
You just have to accept it.
Why?
Because when people bring up Carl Malone and Oprah Winfrey, I'm sure he's like, well, that was 20 years ago.
That was 30 years ago.
Why are you bringing something up like that?
Well, RDJ changes life, man.
And people love him.
There's some actors and some people in life you root for.
Literally, there's certain people you just naturally root for.
It's in sports.
It's in politics.
It's in Hollywood.
It's in comedy.
It's in every space.
You just root for that guy.
Robert Downey Jr. was a guy, a list of my top five movies of his, with number one being Judge.
I think number two was The Endgame.
Number three, I put as I think only you and an Iron Man.
And I added one other movie to this.
I forget which one the fives are for me.
I just love this guy, right?
And maybe Jimmy Kimmel hates the fact that he doesn't have that kind of love that, you know, Robert Downey Jr. gets.
Maybe his envious is like, I'm more famous and I'm doing this and I'm doing that.
But how come people don't love me like the way they love Robert Downey Jr.?
I don't know what it is.
This is why he's a hypocrite because he can bring up Robert Downey's drug past 20 years ago.
Yeah.
But you can't talk about what he did 20 years ago.
That's what exactly is.
That is the most ironic part.
Great point.
And here's the thing, though.
You know, like the odds of what Robert, if you guys don't know Robert Downey Jr.'s story of the drugs and everything, the guy shouldn't even be alive, shouldn't have a career.
And look at he came, dude.
You want to talk about a Phoenix?
This guy came out of the ashes.
He's up there.
This is his night.
He's the favorite to win.
And you're going to say some stupid, ignorant shit like that in front of his wife, in front of the world.
He played it off cool, but it's like, dude, like, enough is enough with these hack embarrassing freaking moments.
By the way, he opened when he was on stage, he read Trump's tweet about him being the worst host.
And what, by the way, you know what's crazy?
That was the funniest moment of the night.
And it wasn't that he said it.
It was what Trump said about his hack, unfunny act.
I got a standing option.
Well, I'll tell you one thing.
Obviously, Cuomo is like best friends with Robert Downey Jr.
Yeah.
Right?
He's FaceTimed into the podcast before.
During the UFC fight, I'm sitting with Cuomo.
Tom, you were there.
Robert Downey Jr. FaceTimes us during the fight.
We're like, people behind us are literally like, oh, is that Robert Downey?
That's crazy.
Everyone's going like in our little section.
It wasn't crazy.
I haven't watched the Oscars in not even decades.
But because of Robert Downey Jr., because of Cuomo, I wanted to see if he was going to win or not.
By the way, Oppenheimer cleaned up.
He won best supporting actor for Oppenheimer.
They won best actor, best picture, best supporting actor.
The list goes on.
I think they won, I don't know, almost 10 awards, I want to say.
But he got up on stage.
This is what, you know, he could, you got to appreciate somebody that can poke fun at themselves, right?
So he said, I would like to thank my terrible childhood and the academy in that order.
And shout out to the insurance guys out there because he goes, Then I would also like to thank my talent agent for actually getting me insured.
And he goes, Thanks, bro.
So, you know, he's just a very likable guy.
I guarantee you he goes home that night, his phone blows up, and they say WTF.
What was that all about?
I guarantee you, that's what people texted him to say that about him.
But he's loved.
God bless you.
You know what people say?
That was Rich.
God bless you, PBD.
He goes, That was Rin.
Do you guys know that he read that Trump tweet?
He told them, I'm going to go up there and read it.
And they said, no.
And he said, yes, I am.
So he chose to say this stupid ass joke.
Oh, they told him not to read it.
They told him not to read the Trump thing, and he did it.
So that's it.
So when people say this is written, no, no, he can say what he did.
Do you have the Trump tweet that he read?
Can you pull that up if he did?
Yeah.
Is this the one wrong?
I have a clip of him reading it if you want to play that.
How long is it two minutes?
Oh, no.
No, it's like 30 seconds.
Do you have the fast-forwarded it to write?
Yeah, right here.
Okay, go ahead.
Play the clip.
Go ahead.
Wondering if I could share it with you.
I just got a review.
And has there ever been a worse host than Jimmy Kimmel at the Oscars?
Fact.
His opening was that of a less than average person trying too hard to be something which he is not and never can be.
Get rid of Kimmel and perhaps replace him with another washed up but cheap ABC talent, George Slopanopoulos.
He would make everybody on stage look bigger, stronger, and more glamorous, blah, blah, blah.
Make America great again.
Wow.
By the way, how funny Stopanopalopoulos.
Slapanopoulos.
Stop onopolis.
And Rob, if you want to pull up what I said here on Slack, look at the people are aware of how bipartisan, not that one, the first one right above that.
Yeah.
Jimmy Kimmel, number one.
What does it say here, Rob Hunchin?
Who like, yeah, can you zoom in?
Percent of Americans who the late night host leans politically liberal.
Jimmy Kimmel's number one.
Steve McColbert right next to him.
Jimmy Fowler.
Jimmy, by the way, Jimmy Fallon is the only one that I could even tolerate.
But look at the unfunny hacks on this list.
Keep going.
Keep going.
But it's interesting.
He's only one of them is actually a political show, Bill Maher.
And he's not even in the top three.
He's not technical.
What does that say to you?
I mean, Conan, I could deal with it.
Samantha B. John Oliver's another hack.
And then if you go to the next thing that I sent you, it's very interesting.
John Oliver does some real good things on that.
What he did about Boeing, if we cover that, we could talk about it.
He does not hold back.
I mean, obviously, he's not a trunk guy.
I can't stand him.
And this is the reason that Greg Guttfeld, who's not a comedian, I don't know if you can see it.
Greg graphic, Adam.
Yeah, my bad.
What is this?
Nintendo 1982.
There it is.
The helltar egg.
What's the Street Fighter?
Is Blanca about to fight Ryu?
What the hell is that?
Oh, my God.
This is why Gutfeld is number one, because a lot of people think that it's politically liberal to him.
Adam, at 2 a.m. last night, did this look in focus to you?
Adam was like, it must be my eyes are going.
But I think it was.
Don't blame it on the technology.
But I just think Kimmel is classless, tasteless.
If he was a Republican, he would have been canceled 10 years ago.
The historical thing about Hollywood is for all of their liberal unity that they claim to have, there is not a more backbiting, cynical, insecure world than that of Hollywood talent.
They are jealous of each other.
They are cynical about each other.
And you get a talent agent alone and get a couple glasses of wine in him, and they'll give you war stories about how actresses get so snippy with each other.
You get a talent agent alone with a game.
No, no, no, I'm saying.
He's going to talk about it.
No, no, no.
You get people talking.
Let me put it this way.
You go to a cocktail party in Hollywood.
You get a couple glass of wine.
You know what I mean?
You go to a cocktail party in Hollywood.
They married.
And at about 11 o'clock, you get an agent with a buzz starts talking, and they'll start telling you things.
Since we're speaking of the awkwardness, I'm telling you, I'm not having a couple glasses of wine with you.
I'm not drinking alone.
No, no, no.
Touch it.
I think everybody knows what I mean.
Touch it, but Kimmel is a cynical jealous man.
Speaking of the Oscars, can we talk about what John Cena did?
Yeah, John Cena.
So let me know.
Let's read that story.
John Cena, I'm sure everybody's seen it.
It's all over the place.
John Cena's goes nude on the Oscar stage in nods to infamous Academy Award streaker quips.
The male body is not a joke.
John Cena appeared naked on Oscar stage while presenting the award of best costume design to poor things.
It was all part of a bit that paid homage to one of the craziest moments in history of Academy Awards when a naked man ran on stage at the 46th Oscars in 1974 while David Neven was introducing Elizabeth Taylor.
It was at the height of the 70s, a streaking fan when nude people frequently interrupted public events.
I changed my mind.
I don't want to do the streaker bit.
He told Kimmel, I just don't feel right about it.
It's an elegant event.
You know, you should feel shame right now for suggesting such a tasteless joke.
Kimmel said the bit was supposed to be funny, to which Senna hilariously responded, the male body is not a joke.
I mean, I need you guys to see this actual clip.
Did you see it live?
Yeah.
No, I saw it.
No, I saw it.
As soon as it happened, it was all over X.
But I just wonder, is he going to apologize to the parents of all the kids?
Because mind you, a lot of his fans wrestling, they're watching this, Adam.
This isn't that late on the West Coast.
Is he going to apologize to the parents for showing his naked ass like he apologized to China in Chinese when he said Taiwan was a country?
This is a humiliation ritual.
All right.
Like in 2000, I think, 20, he started wearing dresses.
He's on OnlyFans doing weird crap.
Hollywood does this when you want fame and fortune.
They make you either you sell your soul, you make a crazy sacrifice, or they have to shame your ass like this.
And dude, this is not him.
This is not what he wants to do.
Do you think he wants to do that?
Adam, his wife's ex, his ex-wife is there.
Nikki Bella was there.
And then his fan base is like, bro, there's kids watching you.
Mind you, I've had my clothes off naked, G-String.
I was on Showtime.
I was on a late night.
Kids are asleep.
I'm not doing that shit on the Oscars.
You were naked in a G-shirt?
Yeah, I've done a lot of crazy.
Do you think we're just going to gloss over that real quick?
No, no.
Moving right along.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Can we get some images of this?
I was on Showtime.
I did a protest trip.
I didn't write the sketch.
It was old and it was on Showtime, like I said.
Late night.
This is the Oscar.
Why do you keep saying it's on Showtime?
It's on Showtime.
Because the kids, well, you think of the eight-year-old kid is watching Showtime that late at night?
Well, it was late at night.
So whatever.
Actually, look, number one, I got to see that image.
Get out of there, Rob.
Get out of there.
I got to find that.
I think everyone in the audience wants to see it.
I will say that it was actually hilarious, well written.
Isn't it inappropriate for children?
You know, he basically was behind sort of a wall.
And the way that Kimmel sort of set it up, he was like, a naked man streaking.
Yeah.
Can we get Q to the, you know, and he's like, I don't, I don't want to do this, bro.
I don't want it.
It was a bit.
And you got to give a shout out to the comedy writers.
Again, not necessarily condoning this, but it was funny.
He's like, best costumes.
So, but the most, you said what was the most degrading?
You show the image that I sent you.
You know, his feud with The Rock.
Go back one.
No, the other way.
As he's leaving naked, he has to shake The Rock's hand.
Backstage?
Backstage.
What?
You don't have that image, Rob?
I sent it to you in Slack.
And it was John Cena naked with The Rock and Bad Bunny.
Oh, wow.
Should have it, Rob.
There it is, right there.
He dressed like a monk.
Yeah.
So we all know that The Rock and John Cena, two of the biggest WWE stars, they had bad blood back in the day, both massive stars, rivalry.
Cena actually admitted that he messed up.
There was a lot of bad vibes, that he was short-sighted and selfish.
I don't know what their relationship is now, but is there anything more emasculating to John Cena being naked and walking past The Rock, having to shake his hand?
Let me ask you a question, Pat.
Does he, when they tell him, like, hey, listen, this is what we want you to do.
Does he have to do it?
No.
Or could he say no?
He doesn't have to do it.
Oh, really?
No.
I think, listen, here's what I think.
I think there's a couple things in Hollywood.
Hollywood has a reputation of having you do things you don't want to do or else.
Right?
So that reputation exists.
Now, you know, The Rock did a movie back in the days, Get Shorty, with John Travolta and Vince Vaughan.
Do you remember that when he was a gay security guard, gay bodyguard?
Do you remember that?
Yeah, I remember the movie.
Twinkle, Twinkle.
Yeah, yeah.
Do you remember that whole?
I don't know if you remember or not, and they're out of the car and they're running around.
And, you know, The Rock's done some weird movies.
That's the one right thing.
I think that's the one.
Yeah, Get Shorty, he was in it.
And he was actually really funny.
And in the movie, be cool.
That's what I'm sorry.
I said Get Shorty, but it's Be Cool.
Yeah.
So, you know, so you do.
Why are you doing that?
Well, because at that time, you don't, who was The Rock?
He didn't have leverage.
When you don't have leverage, if anybody wants to go into the Hollywood business right now, you're going to be like, I only want to play the hero.
Get the hell out of here.
There's like 50 million people that want to play the hero.
No, we're only going to use your face for villain.
Okay.
Remember, you know what Vince Vaughn played one of his first movies?
I think he played Psycho.
Go to what movie did it play?
Now, maybe it's not Psycho, but play Vince Vaughn.
Type in Vince Vaughn Psycho.
I think you're right, Pat.
Yeah, bro.
The guy played Psycho.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
Can you imagine?
And this guy's like, you know, I don't want to be Psycho.
I want to be somebody else.
And so when you get in, you don't have leverage.
You got to pick whatever scripts that they're willing to give you for you to play that part.
But then when you're John Cena or The Rock, you're like, look, guys, I'm only going to be the hero.
And I'm only going to do it.
And by the way, The Rock played a villain in Fast and a Furious.
It was form of a villain, right?
Eventually, it's like they become friends.
But you don't have to do it.
You choose to do it, except if your career is in shambles and they got so many things that they own on you, then guess what?
You better do it.
It's not even have to.
You better do it or else.
And it's not a good position to be in.
Anyways, let's go to the next story here.
At the Oscars, do we want to stay on that with the refuting their Jewishness?
Yeah, that's the outside.
All right, let's go there.
So, Oscar winners refute their Jewishness, okay?
Which, which, whatever that means, but let's read this here.
Oscar winners refute their Jewishness over Israel's war of self-defense against Hamas.
The experimental Holocaust drama zone of interest took home the Oscar for Best International Feature and his director, Jonathan Glazer, used the moment to decry Israel's attack in Gaza.
All our choices, Rob, if you have that clip, all our choices were made to reflect and confront us in the present, not to say, look what they did then, but rather look what we do now.
He said, our film shows where dehumanization leads at its worst.
It shaped all of our past and present.
Glazer then said he and his fellow filmmakers stand here as men who refute their Jewishness and the Holocaust being hijacked by an occupation which has led to conflict for so many innocent people.
Glazer did, however, take the moment to honor the Israeli victim of the October 7th massacre at the hands of Hamas.
Go ahead, Rob.
How long is it, Rob?
Not to say, look what they about a minute.
Okay, go ahead.
It's pretty much what I read, right?
Rather, look what we do now.
How film shit is that?
It's okay, I just read it.
So, Vinny, thoughts.
Well, it's just, well, first of all, like, and a lot of people, dude, they went crazy after this guy.
I mean, he's Jewish.
The guys behind him are Jewish.
And he used the word occupation, which, you know, people started protesting.
They were outside.
You know, they had to fence this place in, like the White House when Biden was doing his speech.
But his main message was simple, but I think it was crucial that empathy and compassion is not a zero-sum game.
I mean, dude, like, I don't know if you guys have been paying attention with what's happening.
The numbers of Gazans killed were how many as at this point in time?
Do you know?
Over 30,000.
They're saying the number is kind of out there.
Bibi Netanyahu just did an interview with Fox, and he's like, We're not getting off the gas, okay?
And I'm just curious how many, how much more blood has to be spilled there to quench this guy's thirst?
Because by the way, I don't know if you guys saw this or not.
Remember, there's always both sides of every story.
Obviously, let's not get into how bad the October attack was.
It was disgusting.
It was horrible.
There were murderers.
But there's a clip of reporters I sent to Rob.
Did you see how some of these reporters from Israel are talking about the Israel situation, the Gaza situation?
Rob, do you have that?
Do you have that clip?
This is, by the way, this is Israeli news.
Look at how they're talking about what's happening in Gaza.
I'm for war crimes.
I'm for war crimes.
You really want to see 100,000?
Is it?
I don't care about Gaza.
I literally don't care.
For all I care, they can go out and swim in the sea.
I want to see dead bodies of terrorists.
That's a great attitude.
That's what I want to see.
Okay, so my question is this.
With that type of attitude, when is this going to stop?
I know, Adam, you have some thoughts about the Ramadan and all the stuff coming up.
And again, I've said this multiple times on the show.
When are we going to find out what happened on October 7th?
When?
When?
Remember, John Kirby said, now is not the time.
Is now the time?
How many months has it been?
Seven months.
Okay, we're at over 30,000 people, and the majority, I don't care what Bibi Netanyahu says is the number, the majority are innocent women, children, and men.
So when is it?
I'm just curious.
That's a really horrible look for anybody on the news talking like that about the war.
That's not a good sign that people are watching that.
I'm just curious to win.
I think Jonathan Glazer, I'm brave to have that moment to say, like, listen, it has to stop.
It's getting ridiculous.
I think that's a great moment that he took it.
He's going to catch flack.
I don't know what his future in Hollywood is going to be like, but it's like enough is enough.
You know what I mean?
And you have a thought on the ceasefire.
Happy Ramadan to all our Muslim friends out there.
Binny, you have to understand something about Israel.
And you'll understand this as an American.
They are a democracy.
Okay?
You're going to have people on the left.
You're going to have people on the right.
You're going to have people on the center.
There's a wide range of opinions.
You understand that?
Of course not.
If you go and you cut up every clip of every lefty in America, you're going to hear some wild ass shit.
If you go and you cut up every clip of any right winger in America, you're going to hear some wild ass shit.
That is the beauty of a democracy: you can say what you want to say.
Now, policy is different than verbal personality, conjecture, anything like that.
So being that is a democracy, Bibi Netanyahu is the prime minister.
There is a lot of, let's just say, momentum for him to be removed.
We'll see if that happens.
His biggest combatant, as they say, would be Benny Gantz, who is aligned with Netanyahu on what they're doing.
Now, Benny Gantz has come to visit Kamala Harris because their biggest fear is they do not want to have daylight between the American policy and the Israeli policy.
Here's what I can tell you: whether it's right, whether it's wrong, they are going to eliminate Hamas.
This is not my opinion.
You think that's an attainable goal when you don't even know?
So, how many?
Let me read this to you guys.
Netanyahu says at least 13,000 terrorists amongst Palestinians killed.
Reuters' story: nearly 31,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza during the five-month-long war that began after Hamas militants attacked Israel on October 7th, killing 1,200 people and seizing 253 hostages.
According to Israel allies, Netanyahu said that extending Israel's offensive into Rafah in southern Gaza was key to defending Hamas.
We are very close to victory.
Once we begin military action against the remaining terror battalions in Rafah, it is only a question of weeks until the intensive phase of fighting is concluded.
Biden and his aides have urged Netanyahu in strong terms not to launch more major offensive in Rafah until Israel crafts a plan for mass evacuation of civilians.
More than half of Gaza's 2.3 million people are sheltering in Rafah's area.
This is concerning.
This is Rafa.
If you know anything about Israel, the Rafah border crossing is right where the border was.
Exactly.
The border.
With Egypt, if you've seen that Egypt, now why can't they go into Egypt?
Because Egypt doesn't want them.
Bibi Netanyahu has acknowledged that he does not want to go into Rafah and kill more innocent civilians.
By the way, and this is Alan Dershowitz who said this, so come after him.
He said of the 30,000, and this is all Hamas's numbers, okay?
And then if you want to say, all right, the UN, if you want to believe the UN is embedded with them, so that is not that it is two to one.
So meaning for every Terrorists killed that one to two civilians has been killed.
Now, you might say that sounds horrible.
That's actually some of the lowest numbers you've ever seen in war in World War II or in Tokyo, in Japan, when the United States attacked them.
It was way higher than that.
Now, I'll give the disclaimer: nobody wants to see dead civilians.
It's horrible.
It's tragic.
There's two million people in Gaza right now that could potentially be under famine.
Nobody wants this.
But I will remind you.
You think Israel wanted this war?
You know, they say that there's a ceasefire.
There was a ceasefire on October 6th.
You just asked, do I think Israel wanted this war?
From what Bibi Netanyahu has said on camera, yes, Adam, they did.
They were waiting for it.
And he said, the U.S. is basically our bitch, and we can do whatever we want, and they're not going to say anything.
You think that they actually wanted that?
1,200 people slaughtered.
No, hold on, hold on.
Hold on.
Adam, you're saying like they didn't want that.
You don't think Bibi Nanyahu wants to wipe out Gaza and take over that territory?
That's where you're going with this.
You said, you said, there's no, I'm not even being a dick.
I'm asking you.
You think that he wanted 1,200 innocent civilians to die?
No, he didn't die.
As an excuse, going to Gaza?
Adam, he didn't pick up.
I'm asking you that question.
I'm telling you, he said he could do whatever the hell he wants and nobody will check him because we're his bitch, number one.
Number two, that that happened, that we still don't know what happened.
How did that security fail so horribly where these terrorists ran rampant for six hours and did all that they did and nothing happened?
Here's my question.
You said, those reporters left or right.
You show me at what point an American news, Fox or CNN, when there's a war going on, said some shit like, I want 100,000, who gives a shit?
I want to see dead bodies in the water.
That's a whole different sentiment.
And the majority of Israelis said that the response isn't strong enough.
That's a fact.
The average Israeli is like, we should do more.
We should have gone in harder and wiped people off.
Okay, so that's a fact.
Let's do this for a second.
Let's do this.
Let's go to see what they're saying in Hamas land.
What do you think they're saying?
Forget about Israel.
You just identified that.
What do you think everyone in Gaza is saying about Israel?
Because I can already tell you what it is.
You ready?
From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.
What do you mean everybody in Gaza?
There's barely nobody's in Gaza right now.
They're all gone.
Where is everybody in Gaza?
They're still in Gaza.
They're in Rafah right now.
Well, they're barely in Gaza.
You have to understand something.
Do you know that the 1,200 people that were killed?
Yeah.
You know, in October 7th?
Do you know who those people were?
Do you know actually what their makeup was, their demographic was?
Do you know who they were?
They were the people calling for a two-state solution.
Those were the, they live on a kibbutz.
This is hippied out leftists.
Yeah, they're at a freaking concert.
Hear me out here.
The people on the far left that were basically saying, we need to live with the people.
Bring them in.
We want them to live with those are the people advocating for Palestinians to have a state.
Those are the ones that were slaughtered.
So people of Israel are now looking at it and saying, wow, they even slaughtered the people on the left.
So it'd be this.
It'd be the equivalent of the gays for Gaza.
Hey, you know, from the river to the sea, please, you know, gays for Gaza.
And then Hamas murdering them.
Okay.
It's literally the equivalent.
So the question is, you can't negotiate with these people.
I understand that, but I don't hear that.
They want the whole land.
How much of the land do they want?
Okay.
All of it.
How many.
Okay, here's my question, though, to you.
Since this, by the way, I don't agree with this number two to one.
I think that's completely false.
I don't care who's reporting it.
How many more people, I'm asking you genuinely, how many more people are going to die till you go, okay, guys, here's the Hamas death total.
They're all gone.
That's an unknown.
How many more have to die?
I would like to see zero.
I know but I don't know if you know how this works.
You can't write a nice email to Hamas and say, hey, please stop.
Did you know?
You think this is why you're getting the number.
Just listen for a second.
I'll tell you Hamas is just sitting there in their tunnels, shaking in their boots.
They're still firing rockets into Israeli cities.
I guarantee you, Vinny, as an Air Force veteran, if rockets were flying from Mexico into Texas, what would you say then?
You'd say, well, you know, I definitely don't want to kill all the innocent Mexicans, but as an Air Force combatant, as a veteran, we got to take care of these people.
We got to protect our people.
It's not like Hamas is just sitting there doing nothing.
And by the way, in the north of Israel, you have Hezbollah.
By the way, these are all U.S.-deemed terrorists.
Hamas.
How many Israeli soldiers have been dying lately?
You know the number of Israeli soldiers dying?
Hopefully zero.
Barely anything.
Maybe by an accident.
But my question is now that the war is kind of chilled, right?
Why can't they do a tactic change?
Like a different approach to get these guys in the top.
That is literally what they're doing.
But they're at 30-some thousand and the numbers keep going up.
Let's move on.
This is literally what they're doing.
Let's move on.
They have not invaded Rafa.
And I hope.
Sanders, while we're talking about this, Bernie Sanders has also come out and said, let's not send any more money to Netanyahu's war machine.
It's not just that 30,000 people, two-thirds of them are women and children, have already been killed.
We're looking at the possibility of hundreds of thousands of children starving to death.
Sanders said, according to Gaza's health ministry, Israel's bombardments and ground assaults have killed more than 30,000 people in besieged Strip, and others are dying of starvation.
The United States of America cannot be complicit in this mass slaughter of children.
Sanders told the CBS, oh, this is it.
Go ahead, Rob.
You can play that.
You've said Israel's in violation of the Foreign Assistance Act, as have a handful of other Democratic senators.
They may also be in violation of the Leahy Act.
The president himself has the national security powers to suspend.
Do you really think, though, in a presidential election year that the president of the United States would halt or pause or condition aid to one of the closest allies in the Middle East?
Well, I think it is the right thing to do.
You can't beg Netanyahu.
You got to tell him if you want any money, you got to change your policy.
Allow the trucks to come in to feed the children.
And by the way, in terms of politics, which is secondary to my mind in this issue, the truth is, whether you're a conservative, Republican, or a progressive, you do not want to see children in Palestine starve to death.
So I think it's good politics and it's the moral and right thing to do.
I don't see anything wrong with what he said.
And Bernie Sanders says a lot of stupid shit.
Nobody wants to see innocent kids dying.
Nobody.
I can promise you that.
So this whole war could be over right now if they return the hostages.
Vinny, if someone had your kids, you, okay?
I don't have any kids.
Someone had Brooklyn, who's basically your goddaughter at this point.
I know your relationship with her.
What would you do?
You would go after to all hell on earth to get your kids back.
That's what Israel does, whether it's right or whether it's wrong.
Okay?
They've traded one Israeli soldier for a thousand criminals in prisons.
They want their people back.
This war would be over if Yahya Sinwar, the head of Hamas, who was in an Israeli prison for 20 years for murder of innocent civilians, told Hamas to put down their weapons and return the hostages, whole thing would be over.
But they're not doing that.
And what they hope to, what they hope to do is during Ramadan right now, basically galvanize the Arab world behind them to say, look what they're doing.
But you know who's not doing anything at this point?
The Arab world.
They don't care about the Palestinians.
If they did, they'd take them into Egypt.
They would take them into Jordan.
Unfortunately, by the way, as a proud American, I'm not an Israeli.
I'm an American, okay?
You have to understand what countries love America and what countries hate America as an American.
You know the three countries at the top of the list that love America?
Number one, Poland.
Number two, Vietnam.
Number three, Israel.
Pew research.
Look it up.
You know what countries hate America?
Jordan, Russia, and Palestine.
Look it up.
Pew research.
Hamas is not our friend, bro.
Hey, Billah in Lebanon is not our friend.
I never said that.
The Houthis in Yemen are not our friend.
Yes, we don't want innocent civilians, but don't forget these people hate America.
Well, Adam, but you would hate America too if you were getting bombed by America and its proxies all the time.
Russia was shitting.
Russia's got to be bombed.
You know why Iraqis hate America?
You know why Iraqis hate America?
Because Bush lied and said, hey guys, weapons of mass destruction.
And we killed a million of them.
Guess what?
I would hate us too, Adam.
I would despise America.
And this is coming from a military veteran.
If you did that shit to me, Adam, shoes on the other foot, you're in Iraq.
And all of a sudden, bombs, American soldiers, occupation.
And then the president goes, yeah, no weapons of mass destruction here.
And he jokes about it and goes, we're going to change the name of the war to enduring freedom.
You'd have a shitty taste in your mouth, too.
Let's transition to the next one.
Gang, just so you guys know, after the last part, for some of you guys that have direct questions for Vinny or Adam, and you disagree with both of them or agree with them, you can Manek with them right here.
Send them a direct question.
I'm seeing a lot of commentary of people saying things.
I want to see Vinny and Adam seeing this on the comments, but pose the question to them.
Have the dialogue.
Have the exchange.
And by the way, Chris Cuomo is now on Manecta.
You can even Manek with Chris Cuomo now, and he's getting back to people within hours.
And a lot of people message me saying, I can't believe he said this.
I can't believe he said that.
Well, go ask him a question on Manekton, see what it tells you about it.
But go ahead.
I just want to say one thing.
You actually make up a very good point.
I'm never going to defend what they did in the weapons of mass destruction with George Bush.
Debacle.
I would say that he's probably the single-handed person that has ruined America's reputation around the world.
But I'll give you a little food for thought.
I gave you the three countries that have the highest viewer, highest net favorability of America.
You know who's number one on that list?
Vietnam.
You don't think we bomb the shit out of Vietnam?
Yeah, obviously.
So sometimes you have to take action to basically influence your power over the world.
Point making the world.
Let's move on.
Point made.
Point made.
Let's transition into something very similar to this strong conversation that we had, Robert De Niro's father, because he's tremendously concerned, Rob.
On a lighter note.
Yeah, he's very worried, and we don't want that to happen to him because we've enjoyed his movies over the years.
Robert De Niro panics.
If Trump wins, he'll come looking for me.
Do you have the video, Rob?
Because it's like if you can just play the video, play the video of De Niro.
I mean, you know, go ahead, Rob.
Just watch this, folks.
Enjoy it.
The guy is a total monster.
And anybody, I don't understand it.
I guess they get behind that kind of logic.
They want to fuck with people, screw them, because they're unhappy about somebody.
He's such a mean, nasty, hateful person.
I'd never play him as an actor because I can't see any good in him.
Nothing.
Nothing at all.
Nothing redeemable in him.
Oh, God.
And we have to, and whoever the people are who want to vote for him, and they look like intelligent people around this.
For some reason, it can't be.
It cannot be.
If he wins the election, you won't be on this show anymore.
He'll come looking for me.
There'll be things that happen that none of us can be.
The audience is laughing.
He's being dead serious.
By the way, this is full Trump derangement syndrome and attack.
And he claims Donald Trump becomes president, all this is going to happen, right?
He's clearly having an episode.
So Trump is a threat to America.
Meanwhile, in New York City right now, where he is from, De Niro's from Brooklyn, the governor last week deployed 750 National Guard soldiers with long rifles, M16s, in the subways due to skyrocketing crime and violence, which is caused a lot by the illegals set in.
Who let these illegals in, Tom?
Is it Trump?
Oh, in the last couple of years, Biden.
Joe Biden has been working hard to set new records.
Thank you.
And yet, Trump is the threat.
And give me a break, okay?
And you said this, Pat.
Is that an ⁇ I thought this is an act.
Like, he's an actor, but what all this does, this negative rhetoric, it's further dividing an already divided country.
And the most egregious thing, I think, the most unbelievable to me is somebody, Robert De Niro, who I was a huge, huge fan of his work.
I've seen good fellows in my family, my brother, my cousins.
I'll say 150 times.
I'm not even joking, but I just plays in the background.
For someone, and God rest his soul, his grandson just died this year due to fentanyl overdose, okay?
Why aren't you furious at this current administration?
You should be ashamed of yourself because that fentanyl that came in and killed your grandson either came from China or it came from Mexico, okay?
And guess what?
Because of the wide open border, and whose fault is that again, Tom?
Or Mexico is the distributor for children.
Guess what?
Biden, not Trump.
And Bill Maher, Pat.
I don't know if you saw Bill Maher just sitting there.
And it drives me crazy with Bill Maher.
A lot of us, we've even said, Adam, you said this.
We all are like, yo, he's starting to wake up.
He's trying to, he's turning.
He's a fraud.
He has TDS as well.
And when it looks like Trump was not going to be the nominee, you saw Bill Maher like happy.
He's all he's saying right, right policy and stuff.
Now that Trump is a favorite, he's back in the TDS.
And it's just, it's boring.
Tom.
Now Trump's asking.
I completely appreciate your passion.
And I ask you to think about one thing.
What?
Why are they coming out saying irrational things?
The beginning of that by De Niro, he sounded like making a rational argument.
Listen to his tone.
This is how he was delivering it.
He sounded almost rational, almost.
And then he gets to the end and they drop in the fear.
They drop in the fear because they know their guy is losing.
Exactly.
So point one, they're going full TDS because their guy is losing and they're trying to use fear because from the liberal Democratic side, you can't put together a policy or position argument that makes sense to the American voter.
Point two, Robert De Niro, you and everybody, you're such liars.
There's an easy solution.
Go to Canada like you said you were going to go in December of 2016.
I'm so scared.
I'm moving to Canada.
Look, if you like, you look, many of you like Montana and you have ranches in Montana.
It's just another 100 miles over the border.
Go to Canada.
If that's what you want, you're so afraid of things here.
There are solutions to it.
But they are terrified right now because their guy is so behind and they know it.
And this is just coming out.
But everything you said is correct, especially the point, look in the mirror, Robert De Niro.
Your own family member tragically was an avoidable death that this president that you claim to love so much could have stopped.
And Rob, I just send you this slip on Slack.
Patrick, he was asked about the crime in New York.
Bill Maher asked him straight up, the National Guard, look at this nothing burger answer.
He can't have an answer because he knows that it's an effed up policy from the Sanctuary City shit.
Rob, can you play this?
The governor of New York now is putting the National Guard in the subway.
As a New Yorker, what do you think?
What do you think they'd say if he did it?
Well, if he did it, it's for another reason.
Heard doing it.
I haven't heard about it.
They just told me.
He hasn't heard shit about it before.
But I don't know.
I don't have an answer for that.
I'm not happy about it.
The crime in New York.
I mean, you know something about that.
It doesn't bother him.
Well, I don't.
He played it.
It's happened to you.
Look, look, look, can admit it.
Can't admit it.
Look, John.
Yeah, 20, 20 guys.
I don't, I'm sorry to hear that, and I hope, I don't know, you can't give the point.
Look, look, by the way, because you know why, guys?
He doesn't ride the subway.
He's an elitist.
He's protected by guys with guns.
This is all bullshit fear-mongering, and it just drives me nuts.
Like, Bill Maher should be more aggressive.
What do you interview?
Hold on, you don't know that the National Guard, meaning we're deploying soldiers, our soldiers, on our land in the subway to blame him at like, what are you talking about?
When the local state fails, who bails him out?
Men in uniform with Uncle Sam.
He's out of touch.
He's just like Bill Maher, who says, California, I love California.
I love Newsome.
Yeah, because you're in the hills protected, you idiot.
Come down to the ground where we're at and see how life really is for the average American.
They're out of touch.
To me, this is actually pretty simple.
He's Hollywood.
What do we expect?
Meaning, we think of Robert De Niro, Goodfellas, Casino, Bronx Tail, even Cape Fear, Raging Bull Deer.
We're thinking of him as this badass, wild mafia, boss type dude.
He's Hollywood.
Big time.
He's Hollywood.
We saw what happened when Jimmy Kimmel read the mean tweet from Trump.
The crowd went wild.
Once he said, make America great again.
I'll give you a guess who tweeted this.
I mean, applause, applause, applause.
We're expecting something different from De Niro because of the characters that he play.
But at the end of the day, he's a Hollywood icon.
He's never in a million years go against the message of Hollywood.
But if you can't.
You know what is great?
Chas Palminteri the other day, who is friends with Bobby, with Robert De Niro, and they did Bronx Tale together, and they have a relationship together.
And Chas always speaks very highly about Robert De Niro and the stories.
Chas eventually just couldn't hold it.
He just called that New York City, says, what the hell is going on to New York City?
What is going on with the security?
So to people like this, you know, what eventually happens is that anybody you're close to, others can say whatever they want.
I guarantee you, Chas saying something like that has more influence on De Niro than anything anybody else is going to say.
He's not going to give a shit what anybody else is going to say.
But if a Chas, who is in the business, who made it to the top, I think he got nominated for an Oscar.
I don't know if I believe he got nominated.
Yeah, he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for Bullets Over Broadway.
I mean, this guy is a legit, legit, legit actor.
And when we did Mafia States of America, the guy was a professional.
And he says this has happened in New York.
I guarantee you that goes to Bob.
I guarantee you De Niro sees that.
And he sits there and says, what do you think about this?
Maybe to have a conversation offside.
Maybe there is that happening internally, but Adam makes a point whether he's going to change or not.
The chances of that are going to be slim at an age like this.
Anyways, let's go to the next story here.
Let's go to the next story here.
Meanwhile, Bill Maher, okay, sits there and urges Democrats to replace Kamala with somebody else.
And who is that?
He says Nikki Haley should be the VP.
Bill Maher suggested Joe Biden consider replacing his VP, Rob.
If you have this video, replacing his VP, Kamala Harris, with Nikki Haley, or Republican Senator Mitt Romney in a bid-to-bit bridge the divide between the political parties.
Go on to play this, Rob.
I know it's crazy to think that she could run with Biden, but that's my dream.
A unity ticket.
And then he would, I think, definitely win because nobody's going to.
And of course, she said some crazy things.
Most politicians have, not as crazy as we've never been a racist country.
I mean, that's pretty crazy.
You would literally destroy the Democratic base.
I mean, take off the first African-American female vice president officer.
She's a woman of color.
But it's just like black women are like the core of the Democratic Party.
Correct.
Like, what a douchebag.
Like, what a douche, because Bill Maher, apparently, you know, to him, the first woman of color, Kamala Harris, is just a placeholder.
Like, this is what I'm talking about about Bill Maher, bro.
Just when you think he's starting to turn and he's like, then he goes right back into being a vampire.
I was just saying, their guy is losing.
And so the lunacy that comes to the end of De Niro's statement is not surprising to me, nor is it the surprise.
And listen to the last thing he said.
Bill Maher goes, and then he would win.
Their guy is losing.
And so he is solving for Biden winning.
You know, if Nikki Haley was on here and Biden would win, that's what he's solving for.
These are desperate people groping and looking for desperate, literally groping in the dark, desperately trying to find a solution.
Already getting away with groping.
I mean, this is the kind of stuff that's going to be literally.
Tom, he's a literally, he's a literal man.
There's no way in the world Bill Maher and these guys can get away with groping until the Me Too movement would get him.
Is that what you're saying, Tom, with the groping?
They are metaphorically groping in the dark.
Metaphorically.
Metaphorically.
I never read The Rock.
He never gave me a story about Bill Maher groping.
But go ahead.
No, but does that surprise you?
No, of course not.
How can Biden win?
How can Biden win?
We'll arrest Trump.
We'll get all these things.
How can Biden win?
You know, William.
Oh, I got an idea.
Nikki Healy replaces Kamala Harris because she's so unpopular.
We'll put a more popular person and then Biden would win.
Does this all surprise you?
No, but this is.
They're solving for their guy to win.
That's what they surprised me.
This is the one thing that's bothering me.
They're crazy, which is equally unsurprising.
The one thing that bothers me about the left and the Democrats is the proof is in the pudding.
This past three years and however many months, name me one thing that's going right.
And please, please, don't tell me infrastructure because the majority of people have no idea what the hell they're talking about.
Nothing has gone right.
From Afghanistan to the border.
The list goes on and on and on and on.
But you know what?
They would rather have the country go to shit than have Donald Trump.
Think about the mentality.
We'd rather have a burning house.
I want it to fall down just as long as this person is not in charge.
It's lunacy.
Like, I can give a shit if I was on the left.
What's this?
Oh, Donald Trump.
Tom, don't look.
Tom, don't look.
Don't look.
Tom, forget it.
Do you speak English?
He looked too fast.
He was looking.
Don't look.
He's like.
Go ahead.
Go ahead, Adam.
Dukan Smish Malam.
I don't know what Canadian thing you're doing over there.
By the way, that was German.
We have our $1,000 bet.
I said that Biden is going to be the nominee.
Yes.
Clearly, since the State of the Union address, where they set the bar so low that as long as Joe Biden survived the speech, that, you know, they think he's going to do okay.
When we last looked at this, Michelle Obama was nine to one.
It is now double.
She's 18 to one.
Gavin Newsom was, I think, 12 to 1.
That's gone up a little bit.
Would you at least acknowledge that at least since the State of the Union, that it is now more likely than ever that Biden will, in fact, be the nominee?
Or are you still clinging to your August surprise prediction?
I'm not clinging to my August.
I'm not clinging to anything.
I'm objectively looking at everything.
And when you and I made a bet, that's how I feel.
I still think it's possible.
I'm going to honor my bet.
I'm going to hand you a check made out to Wounded Warriors.
I'm going to charge for $1,000.
But no, you're giving me the money and what I choose to do with it, whether I choose to.
Why do you hate Wounded Warriors?
I love Wounded Warriors.
I might take your money and double it.
That's not what I'm saying.
You're not going to take a check for you.
So you're not going to take a check for $1,000 made out to Wounded Warriors.
I think that's horrifying.
That's not what I'm saying.
I don't know if that was the initial bet.
Have you had a bad experience with Wounded Warriors in the past?
I don't trust a lot of 501c3s.
I like to see where the money goes.
I'd rather give it to him myself.
But I'll tell you this.
The chances of him replacing Kamala Harris, who is astronomically horrible, is zero.
The base of the Democratic Party are black women.
They're not going to replace at this juncture the first African American woman, whatever Indo-Pacific woman ever to become vice president.
The most interesting thing about this is the fact that Gavin officially pulled above Michelle.
Yeah, that's weird.
That's the most interesting thing that that flips out.
That's very weird.
But listen, and you nailed it, Adam, whatever drug adrenaline they injected into Biden at the State of the Union, if they do that every debate, he does have a, I mean, he has a chance to survive.
I don't think he'll beat Trump, but he'll make it through the.
He looked good at that.
He looked good.
Like, it's like if he had a doctor or maybe a family member that knew a lot about medications to get away.
Oh, yeah.
Weird.
All right, let's go to the next one.
Influencer, Andrew Tate, detained in Romania, handed UK arrest warrant, spokesperson says.
Online influencer Andrew Tate was detained in Romania and handed arrest warrant issued by British authorities.
The spokesperson said Tuesday, Tate 37 and his brother Tristan were detained Monday evening for 24 hours on allegations of sexual aggression in UK.
Case dating back to 2012 and 2015, spokesperson Mattia Petrusco said four women had reported Tate to UK authorities for alleged sexual violence and physical abuse, but the Crown Prosecution Service decided not to prosecute them.
The alleged victims then turned to crowdfunding to cover their legal cause as they pursue a civil case against them.
Tate is charging a separate case in Romania with rape, human trafficking, and forming a criminal gang to sexually exploit women.
Adam.
I mean, it's so obvious what they're doing.
It's insane.
Before you even read that, I'm like, let me guess.
Sex crimes.
And Adam, read that.
Let me guess.
Adam, what's sexual aggression mean?
Hey, girl, give me your number.
Like, what is that?
They've revealed their hand.
It's clear.
How many times have I asked you, what's going on with Tate?
Like, we haven't, like, it's almost like the calm before the storm.
We haven't heard anything about what's going on in their case in months.
They were released from house arrest.
They're doing podcasts more than ever on Rumble now.
They just did an Oscar's podcast on Sunday night.
I gave, I sent Rob a clip of the moment where they're there.
By the way, they were going after John Cena.
They're going after the gay agenda.
They said some crazy stuff that I mean, but bro, at that point, though, like, you know that they're looking for you.
I would tone it down.
You know, everybody tells Trump to tone it down?
Like, keep going that right there.
That's from Rumble.
Nice.
You and I were at the height of our fame.
We were offered $50 million.
And when we escaped this Matrix attack, when we're no longer tied up inside of the legal system, I'm going to tell you which company offered it to us.
So you may as well kill me now.
Because I'm going to say it.
And we were offered $50 million.
And we basically had to have certain opinions on LGBT and certain opinions on Israel-Palestine.
And we had to wear certain clothes and dress in a certain way and do certain things.
And we would be protected by the media establishment.
They have said we spend a lot of money on advertising in mainstream media, so the mainstream media will never attack you because they cannot go against the poster child of the people who financed them.
Basically, we hit the gay wall and we declined.
And after declining, we ended up in a jail cell.
And it's very interesting.
Cosmic.
Cosmic.
Yeah.
Wow.
How'd that happen?
And it's very interesting when you sit and talk about how they're out to humiliate men because they want anyone who's seen as masculine and seen as a hero and seen as a role model to face humiliation so that the people who look up to this person are no longer inspired.
And then he gets arrested right after this.
Well, and I thought about this.
And it's Andrew Tay.
Can he transition and become like a female like Andrea Titinski or something?
He did that on the second podcast we did in Bootcraft.
He said, I'm now the most famous woman in the world, right?
Why can't he transition and be like, I'm not Andrew anymore?
He tweeted right after the arrest.
I'm not sure how he tweeted if it was his people.
He said, The Matrix is afraid, but I only fear God.
There was some writing on the wall here.
I don't know if you saw this.
This was maybe a week or two ago.
He was pulled over in Romania, given a drug test.
He passed.
Given a breathalyzer, he passed.
Here's the tweet right here.
The Matrix is afraid, but I only fear God.
You know, we like these guys.
We're rooting for those guys.
Do we agree with everything they say?
No.
But do I agree with everything anyone says?
No.
No.
But this is the times we're living in: is that if you don't like somebody and to this extent, you don't like what they're saying, or if they're going counterintuitive to the message, you character assassinate them.
You try to jail them.
And as he famously said, the third bullet ends up in the back of your head.
So we're rooting for these guys.
I have no clue what the hell they're going for, but they're trying to extradite them to the UK.
Because it's, again, this is my opinion.
It's pretty clear to me, Romania has found nothing.
Of course.
He's still there.
He's going out.
He's driving his Bugatti.
He's going around.
He's having fun.
There's probably a sense of comfort where he's like, I know this is all bullshit.
But he also.
Well, there was a fear they had was that these guys were about to escape Romania.
Go somewhere else.
So that's apparently one of the things that, hey, they may be running away.
So let's get them before they do.
And all this stuff that they're spinning and doing what they're doing.
Here's the thing.
What percentage of this is, you know, just literal?
Like, hey, the girls raised the money and they're not going after them civil and UK and that's what the case is.
Okay, that's one.
Second option is their comments they made Sunday night that, hey, here's what we're going to do.
Whether you do this or not, we're going to come out and talk about who gave the $50 million offer to them.
Who could that $50 million be?
Is it BBC that offered them the money?
I don't think so.
Who is it?
Who would it be?
Who knows?
Maybe there's going to be somebody that they're going to out, the oust that's going to explain who it is, reveal who it is.
Three, is this what's happening because it's getting closer to election year and he, they are very loud spokesperson on what he said the other day.
The only person left that's going to be saving America is going to be Trump.
I think he said that on something last couple of weeks.
Four, is it really the fact that they're worried of what they're going to be doing with girls?
Who knows?
You pick and choose whichever thing you think it is.
That may be just delaying them for their popularity to decline and for their relevance to kind of disappear.
And then for them to be like, okay, now we'll let you come back in.
Okay.
Now we'll let you get back into doing what you're doing.
The thing with the establishment is you could kill off someone's momentum.
But if someone really has a message, you're only killing them temporarily.
You're not going to kill them permanently.
You can slow down momentum.
You can slow down from them saying a few words right now.
But the world is naturally curious.
And they're going to curiously want to find out what these people have to say, no matter how much you try to hide them from watching it.
Someone's going to have to hear what they have to say.
Their message is going to get out there.
Tom, did you have any thoughts on this, or you're sitting there pretty quiet?
No, this is unsurprising, but this is horrifying.
You know, you've got now UK courts on these.
These guys didn't kill Kennedy.
And they're being extradited at great cost, great publicly from Romania to here.
So somebody doesn't like what they're saying, and somebody doesn't want them to say more.
And now you've got, what's this, 2012, a 10-year-old case?
This is 2012 is the first case.
So this is unsurprising to me.
They have pissed somebody off.
They continue to piss somebody off.
And Romania found nothing.
Remember, they had him in jail for a while, then they put him in house arrest for a while.
And then they finally had to set him and say, now you can go to your own home for house arrest.
And then there was nothing.
And now all of a sudden, well, there's nothing.
And now the four girls are in the UK.
They do a crowdfunding thing.
What the hell does the crown court care about two guys who had a dispute with some women compared to all the things that you could be worried about?
Something is up below the surface.
And these guys have pissed somebody off and they're not going to let it go.
And you know what's interesting?
Whoever it is, they can't say what it really is.
This is going to backfire dramatically.
When's the last time we talked about Tate publicly on the podcast?
It's been months.
It's been months.
Look, they're doing their thing on Rumble.
They're not even on YouTube.
They're not even on TikTok.
They're on Rumble.
You know, the thing with Rumble is you're kind of speaking to an audience that already agrees with you, right?
You're not speaking to the general public.
It hasn't, look, as Tate Massive still says respect to Tristan, yes.
But it's not like they're worldwide news.
Now, if you go Google Andrew Tate, look at all this.
Yahoo news.
What else is there?
CNN, Reuters.
Rob, help me out here.
I don't have the eyeset like this.
Point of the money.
Daily Mail, Guardian.
Yeah, it's headline news on all these different things.
Yeah, good point.
So it's going to backfire dramatically.
Their whole intention is to diminish his star power.
It's only going to make it greater.
His star is shining brighter today, and it's going to backfire dramatically for these idiots.
All right.
So we'll see what happened here.
We'll follow the story closely.
And everybody says that.
Updates come through.
So here we go.
CNN panel pushes back against guest who says rising crime is a rating thing.
Rob, if you got the video there, if you can find it, I'll read the story.
So Washington, D.C., City Council unanimously passed the Secure DC Omnibus Amendment Act of 2024 following a surgeon homicides, prompted by a reversal of liberal reforms.
CNN's Kara Swisher dismissed rising crime as a rating thing, sparking immediate pushback on who's talking with Chris Wallace.
Panelists emphasize the severity of the situation with Sarah Longwell attributing the perception of cities as third world countries.
Rob, if you got the clip, go ahead and play it.
That there are still a lot of low-level crimes like carjackings, people getting their stuff stolen.
Particularly here in D.C. D.C., it's really bad.
It's really bad.
And I think coming out of the pandemic, people just felt like something was off.
Homelessness was a big problem here in D.C. and in other cities and other heads.
I will say, listening to voters, they think the cities are third world countries.
Like some of this also comes from the political culture right now where crime is a big issue.
Republicans have been talking about it and it's been, I think, talked about in such a hyperbolic way.
By whom?
By whom?
Yeah, no, no, by live state by Fox News.
They just went on.
It was so, if you went to San Francisco, you're like, what are you talking about?
This is just, it's, we have problems, but it's not this.
Really?
They just made it into a ratings thing.
They just kept saying this and the other thing.
I think that's not true, but I also think there was a carjacking on my street.
Yes.
You know, this yesterday, D.C. is carjacking.
You know, there are cities where there are problems.
And also, by the way, you know, we talk about carjackings as if, like, oh, well, it's not murder.
Nobody likes to have a gun put in their face in their dungeon.
No, no, no, D.C. did.
And D.C. in particular did have its highest homicide rate in 26 years in 2023.
There's been, I think, a slight improvement.
This is CNN.
What do you think?
She's in denial.
I'm sure the D.C. Attorney General say you can't prosecute or arrest your way out of this carjacking problem.
Well, I think you can, actually.
Tom, go ahead, Don.
Paul this out.
Oh, God.
Cara Swisher just wrote a book.
She's on a bit of a book tour and she's dropping in on things like this.
She's been a journalist for a long time, but she just tried to spin it the way a lot of liberals do into, oh, it's not really a thing.
It's really overspun by the media for a ratings thing.
No, it's not.
The map that DeSantis held up at the debate with Gavin Newsom that showed all the places where there are human feces where you have to call the city to clean it up, that's not a rating things.
That's actual crap on your doorstep.
The proposition E and F that they want to talk about ratings?
Ratings.
How about voter results?
There's numbers.
Those are ratings too.
Voters, Proposition E, just pass in San Francisco.
Not defund the police.
Let's fund the police more.
Proposition F, let's make you pee in a cup before you get your welfare.
That's in San Francisco.
The voters, there's a rating.
The voting, the results of those, both of those things came through.
And so she's saying this, and then her own co-hosts are saying, hey, hey, hang on a second.
There's carjackings here.
There's this here.
No, it is bad.
And that is Cara Swisher, San Francisco, protecting the home team, trying to spin it.
And it's just, it's not viable.
And I'm glad that her co-hosts called her out on it because the voters are speaking and it's not a ratings thing.
Yeah, they've got a ratings.
They have low ratings for their own city.
Why?
Because the problems, the crime, the things under liberal policies is real and the voters are striking back.
It's not ratings.
Come on.
Tom, you were going to page 20.
You said you were going to tell this story with page 20.
Let me read page 20.
University student parents hire private campus security guard amid crime concerns.
Concerned parents of university UC Berkeley have hired private security guards to patrol the campus area prompted by surge in criminal incidents.
Safe Bears, a parent group, initiated the program raising $40,000 for a nearly three-week pilot aiming to enhance safety for students.
Safe Bears President Segar Jatani highlighted the urgent need for improved campus safety, emphasizing the group's formation after violent attacks at UC Berkeley.
Jatani underscored the ongoing risks for students until border safety measures are implemented.
Border safety measures on a broader, broader safety measures are implemented.
The security initiative manned by six safety ambassadors from Street Plus includes patrols from 6.30 p.m. to 3 a.m. daily.
Tom.
So let's see.
Berkeley is in California.
Right?
It's San Francisco.
Weird.
Oh, my gosh.
There's a little bridge between the two of them.
Weird.
Berkeley and San Francisco.
So apparently these parents have been watching CNN and they were concerned about CNN, you know, just for ratings, saying there was crime.
And they were so worried about the story, which was just ratings, that they went and they've raised $40,000.
This is another example.
Not only are people voting on measures, but now you got parents saying, the college that I'm sending my kids to, first of all, why are you sending them Berkeley in the first place?
That's the first problem.
But the second problem, once they get there, they're worried about their kids not being safe, and they raise this.
So once again, this is point number 22, why Cara Swisher was so wrong on this and trying to spin it.
But here's an example.
Now, parents, parents sending their kids to Cal Berkeley are so worried that they're hiring security guards.
Isn't that like, can you imagine that?
It's not bad, but you have to pay people to protect your, like, like they're the president of the United States.
That's unbelievable.
Did they say who was the criminals on campus?
Anybody.
I'm saying, is it the general criminal people?
Are they fellow students?
I'm wondering.
No, Berkeley is an open, if you've been to Berkeley or been around.
Open campus.
I have, I've seen it.
It's a very open, open campus.
Sure, there's security doors and there's gates you have to get through to certain areas with dorms and stuff.
But you have homeless people that are there and you have people that are there that, by the way, over in California, because of the, I think it's the $1,000 rule, they just come up and they break the window of the car to take a backpack.
They think there's a laptop in there that they can pawn for $200.
Oh, yeah.
If you pull this up, can you pull this up, Rob?
If you pull this up, so what this is is, oh, that's the campus.
Well, yeah, because you could just walk up on the campus.
Yeah, there's a website on UC Berkeley.
This is their website.
This is not anybody else's website.
Okay.
And this website is crime mapping.
Can you imagine how bad the school is that you have to crime map websites showing public mapped areas?
Crime mapping also offers some useful graphs of the data.
The University of Berkeley Police Department is pleased to make this resource available to the members of UC Berkeley community while we're working hard to provide accurate and up-to-date information.
The data are preliminary and may change upon investigation.
All crime locations are, as they appear on the map, should be considered approximations and may appear according to the nearest.
So the call types available for display are homicide, manslaughter, that sounds serious, robbery, aggravated assault, sex offenses.
Rob, go up a little bit.
I looked at two sex offenses.
Non-forceable.
Forcible and not forcible.
Just go for it.
Binny, were you raped?
Well, at first.
Well, yeah.
But then aging terror.
Motor vehicle theft, arson, hate crimes do not have a distinct offense code and therefore cannot be specifically.
So add hate crime as well.
If I can just sum up what San Francisco or Silicon Valley has turned into at this point, Berkeley, it's just crime maps, poop maps, and social media overlords.
Yeah, and that's nine.
That's nine separate and reporters who are deniers.
Yeah, like and again, these are all brother.
These are out-of-touch human beings that don't, they're not there.
She's not living there, bro.
She has no idea what the hell she's talking about.
She's there a lot.
She covers Silicon Valley.
She's there a lot.
She knows exactly what she's doing.
But what I'm saying is, I'm saying she's probably secured.
She's having security on her ass as well, Tom.
So she's not really affected because the majority of these students, 95%.
She's 95% of those in a protected country.
Of course.
So this is just out-of-touch people that until, Tom, I'm telling you guys, it's, and I don't wish it on people, but I'd rather have somebody that pushes for like an open border.
Blake and Riley's poor family has to deal with that shit.
It shouldn't be somebody like an innocent family.
It should be the people that are promoting this open border that that shit should happen to them.
So if anything happens to these people, it should be happening to the ones that are pushing for this stupid ass narrative.
Nothing's wrong.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin hits $71,000 as UK opens the door to crypto exchange-a-traded products.
This is CNBC story.
And while that happens, MicroStrategy, Michael Saylor, as if he didn't already have enough Bitcoin, I think he had 205,000.
He has 205,000 Bitcoins.
You talk to most people.
They'll say, I have one Bitcoin, I have a half a Bitcoin, have a third of a Bitcoin.
This guy's got 205,000 Bitcoins or to more than $14 billion.
So what does this guy do?
Just yesterday, he buys 12 more thousand Bitcoins for $822 million.
At what price point?
$70,000?
He bought it at.
Wow.
Normally, they'll put the price behind.
We just got to divide it.
But yeah, he bought 12 more thousand Bitcoins.
You know what he's saying?
He's saying this thing's going to a quarter of a million, and he's not, he's definitely putting his money.
Tom, what do you think is going on with Bitcoin?
Do you think a part of this is it the halving coming up in April or June?
Well, what do you think is causing the spike?
So I think there's two things causing the spike.
And the first thing is we're in an election year.
We have a lot of uncertainty around economic leadership.
We bought it at 68,500.
Yep.
Wow.
So I think the first is not I think.
I know the first one is you look at all the crypto people.
Whenever there's uncertainty, they run to crypto and then crypto runs up on demand.
So people are demanding goes up.
What's bringing uncertainty?
Right now, there's a lot of discussion about, wow, interest rates are going to stay up for a while.
We don't know who the economic leadership is going to be.
There's an election.
You know, who's it going to be?
Adam and Tom are making a bet on Biden or not.
There's all these things that you can check the boxes of there's a lot of uncertainty.
And additionally, it doesn't look like interest rates are coming down.
I mean, U.S. consumer price index didn't look too bad.
Now you've got next week on the 19th, 20th, Jay Powell and the Fed don't look like they're going to lower rates.
And so it's creating a run to what they, the old, old world was you would run to the dollar because it was the world reserve currency and it was stable.
It was the more stable.
Now you have a group of people that were running toward crypto because they think it's, you can't print more, right?
You can't just decide you're going to print a trillion crypto to a fictitious example, fund a war, you know, pay a bunch of people when you lock them down.
You can't do that.
So they feel that the limited supply secures the value, just like the dollar on the gold standard had in theory a limited supply way, way, way, way back when.
And so between limited supply and people demanding it in the face of economic uncertainty, and remember, it's the Bitcoin guys that are saying, you know what?
You know, 5,000 SP, it's making me kind of nervous.
I think it's a bubble.
You see those headlines, Pat, right?
They're all worried.
All of that causes everyone to run to crypto because they think it's a storehouse of safety.
And when there's more demand, the price goes up.
Look, Bitcoin's back, baby.
If you're an investor, if you figured out a way to get out of debt and to stack some cash and save that money, and you've been what I talk about, going from red to yellow to green like a traffic light and become an investor, it's been a very good year for you.
We saw the SP 500 go up 25% this past year when they were expecting a recession.
Bitcoin, when did they hit their all-time high or when did they hit a couple days ago?
No, no, meaning like prior to that, it was probably 2021.
So 62, 64 at the time, actually.
Yeah, Bitcoin is all-time high right now.
I think they basically said that Bitcoin's rally is creating 1,500 millionaire wallets daily.
So if you hodle, you know, hold or hodle, hang on for dear life, and you basically didn't sell, you should be sitting pretty right now with Bitcoin.
I got to give a shout out to Michael Saylor.
He's been on the podcast.
How many times?
Three times?
Two, three times.
Every time he's come here, I bought a Bitcoin.
Luckily, I got in at 15, 20, and then, oh, I'm going to kick my friend's ass.
He's like, wait till the Bitcoin halving, it's going to go down more.
Yeah, you were wrong, buddy.
It's 70,000 right now.
I'm pissed.
Should have bought more.
But thankful I got in when I did.
And for all the Bitcoin enthusiasts, congratulations.
Saylor took a lot of heat.
Was it back 10 months ago?
Got to give him the conviction.
Didn't he?
He took big heat.
But he's got conviction, and I respect the fact that he's got that kind of conviction.
By the way, right now there's 1,500 Bitcoin wallet millionaires right now.
1,500.
That's what's happening daily.
Okay.
Bitcoin rally is creating around 1,500 millionaire wallets daily.
That's what it's doing right now.
Okay.
Next.
So fireworks, George Stephanopoulos.
Very weird, by the way.
I don't know what happened here.
Rob, if you can pull this clip up.
So Stepanopoulos battles Nancy Mays in an explosive showdown about her backing up Trump.
And despite the jury finding he's liable for rape, this is obviously mediated, so the story that's being written.
But watch this exchange, and a lot of people are asking for George to have to apologize after this.
But go ahead and play this, Rob.
Yes, this morning.
And you've endorsed Donald Trump for president.
Judges and two separate juries have found him liable for rape and for defaming the victim of that rape.
How do you square your endorsement of Donald Trump with the testimony we just saw?
Well, I will tell you, I was raped at the age of 16.
And any rape victim will tell you, I've lived for 30 years with an incredible amount of shame over being raped.
I didn't come forward because of that judgment and shame that I felt.
And it's a shame that you will never feel, George.
And I'm not going to sit here on your show and be asked a question meant to shame me about another potential rape victim.
I'm not going to do that.
It's actually not about shaming you.
It's a question about Donald Trump for president.
Donald Trump has been found liable for rape by a jury.
Donald Trump has been found liable for defaming the victim of that rape by a jury.
It's been affirmed by a judge.
It's not a criminal court case, number one.
Number two, I live with shame.
And you're asking me a question about my political choices trying to shame me as a rape victim.
And I find it disgusting.
And quite frankly, Eugene Carroll's comments when she did get the judgment, joking about what she was going to buy, it makes it harder for women to come forward when they make a mockery out of rape, when they joke about it.
It's not a hard time.
It's hard to hold women to come forward when they're.
It makes it harder when other women joke about it.
And she's joked about it.
I find it offensive.
And I also find it offensive that you're trying to shame me with this question.
I'm not trying to shame you.
In fact, I've been hoping that you're not.
I have dealt with this for 30 years.
You know how hard it was to tell my story five years ago when they were doing a fetal heartbeat bill and there were no exceptions for rape, incest, or light or rape or incest in there?
I had to tell my story because no other woman was coming forward.
No rape victims were represented.
And you're trying to shame me this morning.
I'm just asking.
And I find it offensive.
And this is why women won't come forward.
Women won't come forward because they're defamed by those who perpetrate rape.
Donald Trump.
They are judged and they're shamed.
And you're trying to shame me this morning.
I think it's especially.
I'm not shaming you at all.
I told my story.
It took me 25 years to tell my story.
I was judged for it.
I still get judged for it today.
I'm asking you a very simple question.
Vinny.
By the way, I just love, by the way, Stephanopoulos, he's the Clinton family hack leftist.
And again, no apology.
If that was anybody else, he'd be canceled because he actually is shaming her.
But the fact that he's bringing up by the E.G. Carroll, I don't believe a single word that comes out of that psychotic woman's mouth.
He's going, you know, he's stating that the legal system, Tom, found him liable.
If anything that we've learned over this past two years, especially with Trump, I have zero trust in our legal systems because they're all bought and paid for by the political left and they could do whatever the hell they want with it.
I've never had respect for this guy.
And I lost, even if I had an ounce of it, I lost a bit more.
He should 100% apologize to her.
He's trying to make it political.
She was actually raped.
Yeah.
Look, he had one objective for this interview, corner her.
That was the objective for the interview.
And the producer in his ear was coaching him, saying, look, corner her on supporting Trump, who, you know, has had these things in court.
Corner her.
And so he does that.
And then he pursues it.
And he ends up looking like a complete prick because she had a very strong retort based on personal feelings that no one can counter because that's her experience.
That's what happened to her.
A crime was committed against her.
And this guy kept pressing the point.
And I think that just shows how desperate he was to just make the point and corner Trump.
And he didn't care what he did to her.
He didn't care what happened.
And now it looks pretty bad on the reflection of public opinion and objective analysis after it's over.
I'm trying to think of where I've heard this name.
Peggy Mace.
Was it?
It's Nancy Mace.
She's in Congress.
No, no, exactly.
Well, when you first heard her name, she was one of the few members that aligned with Matt Gates to get Kevin McCarthy ousted as the Speaker of the House.
And she, I believe, was one of the her district is Charleston, South Carolina, which is a charming place that typically goes blue.
But she's a Republican.
She was elected there.
And I remember going down the path.
I'm like, who is this woman?
Why did she align herself with Matt Gates?
She's pretty moderate in the Republican side of things.
She was actually the first woman to graduate from the Citadel Corps of Cadets program.
She served in the military.
She's a beast.
Elite leadership.
Yeah, elite leadership right there.
Horrible to see her story.
Horrible to see what Stephanopoulos tried to do to her.
And we'll see what happens to him.
Likely nothing.
You know what it is?
It's just a turnoff.
That's all it is.
You know, you're bringing somebody in.
You brought them in because they were going to talk about what their current agenda is.
And you flipped it and you put this about her against Trump.
And it's something you can choose to do.
And when you choose to do that, you can also have the heat that you get from the marketplace saying that was a classless act.
And you know what?
Good for you, for Nancy, for standing up for yourself.
Respect to you.
And George, you get to choose how you want to handle this moving forward because your organization claims they're big on DEI and they claim they're big on women power and Me Too and all this stuff.
This woman actually went through it.
The only problem is, does DEI apply to Republican women, white women, or is it just like Democratic?
I wonder what those, I haven't read fully all the criterias of what Georgia and his camp follow when it comes down to DEI.
I'd be curious enough to white Republican women that vote for Trump also fall in that category.
Maybe I'm wrong, but he will have to decide how he's going to respond to that.
So let's go to the next story.
Next story is fire department looking into staff who booed New York Attorney General Letitia James cheered for Trump at ceremony.
Rob, if you can pull this up.
A weird, weird story here.
So can you imagine you're working for the fire department and somebody is rooting for Trump and booing Letitia James and this happens?
Go ahead, Rob.
They're booing her.
As they should.
Oh, come on.
We're in a house of God.
First, simmer down.
I want to thank Commissioner Kavanaugh and Chief Hodgins for Trump.
Can you imagine?
So let me continue reading what happens here.
So the fire department is investigating staffers who booed Letitia James and cheered for Trump during a promotion ceremony with spokesperson Jim Long clarifying.
Nobody, can you do you have the clip that says hunting them down or no?
Nobody is hunting anyone down.
It's about professionalism.
At an official event held in a house of worship.
Fire Department New York Chief of Department John Hodgins emphasized the need for individuals involved to come forward voluntarily stating, I recommend they come forward.
It will be better for them if they come forward and we don't have to hunt them down.
That's what he said.
We don't have to hunt them down.
The incident occurred during a ceremony honoring the swearing in of the first African-American woman obtained of the fire department, New York, Reverend Pamela Holmes, prompting James to address the crowd.
Oh, come on, we're in a house of God.
Simmer down.
Thank you for getting it out of your system.
That's what she said.
Vinny.
By the way, notice this, Patrick.
There's an investigation for people that were booing her.
And guess what's going to happen to them?
They're going to investigate.
They'll probably get fired.
And if she could, if it's up to this, this, I hate her so much, they'll go to jail, right?
Meanwhile, those illegal Venezuelans that beat the share of the New York City cops, they were arrested, released, and they're not following anything.
They're not going after them at all.
They're in a migrant camp back in New York, doing God knows what.
It's like, what?
What are we even talking about?
We all know what she's doing.
We all know who she's working for.
We all know her agenda is to get rid of Trump.
And just because a couple of cops that are pro-Trump, because guess what?
The working man is for Trump.
She's going to go after them, like hunt them down.
She's a disgusting human being.
Adam.
Well, it's not a couple people.
It sounded like they're going to have to go hunt down hundreds of firefighters.
Yeah.
Okay.
Not cops, firefighters.
So it wasn't a couple different dispersing voices, a couple of claps.
It sounded like a resounding boo for her and a loud vocal Trump, Trump, Trump from the audience.
So I don't see how you go after dozens, if not hundreds of firefighters.
Because at the end of the day, a firefighter's job is to make sure the city don't burn down.
So I don't think anything is going to happen from this.
I think it's all rhetoric.
But what happens after, but if she finds out, let's say she gets 20 names, what is she doing?
Nothing.
No, but you know what I mean?
She's looking for them to investigate.
What are you going to say?
Fire them.
She's like, this is insubordination.
That would be ridiculous and absurd.
And unfortunately, you may be par for the course for this woman.
What about New York in itself?
It wouldn't surprise me.
First of all, this is Letitia James on message doing what she does.
There is nothing to be surprised about here.
There is everything to be outraged about the way she does it.
Point one.
Point two is right now, the New York Police Department and the New York Fire Department are having trouble recruiting people.
So I don't see how you take people exercising freedom of choice who boo and make a point known when they're having trouble recruiting people.
And I think what happened is she got pissed off, walked off stage, and goes to the head of the fire department, says, I don't like this crap.
I don't like that they booed me here.
Why didn't you prepare this?
This is wrong.
We're just trying to put the first African-American female chaplain, you know, there.
And since it's a chaplain, they held it in a house of worship because she's going to be ordained.
What the hell, man?
Why didn't you prep these people up?
Go find out who booed and knock some heads.
I think it's that simple.
Yeah.
Because that's her playbook.
That doesn't surprise me.
It outrages me, but it doesn't surprise me.
And remember one thing about firefighters.
Everybody loves firefighters.
They're not polarizing like the police.
Now, we saw the debacle that was defund the police and the anti-police movement, which was ridiculous.
And we've seen how police departments have had to lower their standards to just recruit people.
Yeah, do you like guns?
Yeah.
Here's a uniform.
You're fat, sloppy, out of shape.
You know, the typical Dunkin' Donut eating, you know, Simpsons caricature of cops.
That is now unfortunately some of the standard that they have to basically apply because a lot of people aren't trying to be cops and basically they can't recruit anymore.
The last thing you need to do is lower your standards for firefighters that everybody loves.
Speaking of UFC, I remember a year ago we were at the UFC.
There was a New York NYPD guy that came up to us.
Oh, big fan, whatever.
And he basically told us a quick story, sort of anecdotal.
The last thing we need to do is start dwindling the numbers of the people that protect our communities, the police and the firefighters.
So thank you guys for your service.
Yep.
And by the way, she is aligned, but she ain't best buddies with Eric Adams.
And Eric Adams is going to have to deal with reelection.
And Eric Adams is already in trouble.
We all know he is in trouble.
When that election comes up, everything in New York, that guy's in deep trouble.
And now you want to parade a bunch of firefighters being fired and have a rally in the steps of City Hall.
That is the last thing that Eric Adams wants or needs.
So this is also indicative of the function that is in front of the New York voters as they look at these are the people we voted for and this is what we got.
Well, guess what?
You guys have a choice.
Next time at the ballot box, you guys have a choice.
And remember, Eric Adams was a former NYPD police officer.
Yeah.
And the fire department union and the police department union are joined at the hip when they negotiate with the city.
By the way, this is why Trump is saying that he may campaign in New York.
He's convinced he could win New York.
Because what happened is, if you think about Lee Zeldin, right?
It was a close call, guys.
It wasn't.
That was Kathy Hochle for the gubernatorial race.
Don't get me wrong.
Kathy won, but it was still a close.
Can you pull up the Zeldon-Kathy Hochul race?
I think she won by 8% or I don't know what the exact number, but it was a win.
Huh?
You're not wrong.
8%.
There you go.
So 8%, but that's not, that's New York what we're talking about.
Yeah, exactly.
So Trump thinks he's going to win New York.
By the way, he wins New York.
Oh, my.
Chuck Schumer.
If he wins New York, they're going to lose their shit if he wins New York.
So Robinson.
Go to what the numbers were.
Biden versus Trump in 2020.
They don't like the L-word if Trump wins.
Lesbian?
Landslide.
Oh.
No, they like that one.
But this one, this is it.
So what is it?
Zoom in?
61 to 38.
That's New York, 2020.
Okay, but a lot has changed, obviously, in four years.
New York is.
Look at that state.
Yeah.
And by the way, look at that.
Look at 2016 was by 27.
Look at Long Island.
So he won.
He won by how many?
Can we say 22?
So he won by 22.
In 2016, they won by 27.
Where do you say?
In 2012, they won by 32.
And in 2008, so it went from 32 to 32 to 27 to 22.
Wow.
Okay.
To now by eight.
Lee Zeldon, governor, loses by eight.
So Trump and his camp, if they win New York, let me tell you, that's going to be.
Game changer.
That's going to be wild.
So I think when the fire department is calling out Letitia James and they're fearless about it, the element of fearlessness going on in New York, when it comes down to things like this, settle down, settle down, get it out of your system, settle down.
She sounds like an actress from a movie representing the establishment coming in to give a speech and is not happy that the people don't like her, like her.
Yeah, and mind you guys, Adam, you mentioned the fire department and the police.
I don't care what anybody says.
And NYPD is the most revered.
Just think 9-11 and what those guys are sacrificing.
They all hate this attitude, bro.
They are all pro-Trump.
They can't outlaw to come and say it because that's their leadership.
But trust me, they got Trump's back, bro.
I'm not going to.
Last word on Lee Zeldon.
Remember, Lee Zeldon is not a Republican on the sideline waiting to jump on the Trump bandwagon.
He's on.
He is on it and he's campaigned for Trump recently.
And he was even rumored to be part of the cabinet or more.
Yeah.
So let's go to the next story here.
So, Boeing whistleblower, John Barnett, found dead days after testifying against company.
Oh, my God.
62 years old died from what appears to be a self-inflicted gunshot.
I'm not laughing at this.
No, it's not.
What happened?
I'm laughing at it.
If you say Hillary Elden's name in this gunshot wound on Saturday, Barnett was cross-examined by Boeing's lawyer and his attorney days before he died.
The court planned for Barnett to answer more questions on Saturday, but he did not appear as planned.
The BBC reported that he was later found dead in his truck, which was parked in a hotel parking garage.
Barnett was employed by Boeing for over three decades before retiring in 2017.
He worked as a quality control engineer at the company.
In 2019, Barnett told BBC that Boeing would rush to get its 787 Dreamliner jets off the production line, compromising safety.
Alleged emergency oxygen systems that were made for 787 Dreamliners had a failure rate of 25%.
25%.
This means that a quarter of the 787 Dreamliners had the potential to rapidly lose oxygen if the cabins were suddenly decompressed, suffocating passengers.
Is that what?
Vinny, did you have a video you send you want the audience to see?
Yeah, I sent, so there's two of them, Pat.
So first of all, there's Al Jazeera sent an undercover reporter into a plant in South Carolina.
Mind you guys, these are the people making the airplane and he's asking them, would you fly on this airplane?
I'm not trying to laugh at the situation.
It's actually scary.
Rob, can you please play what these people were saying once they're inside?
So hang on.
This is Al Jazeera asking, how do you make the plane crash?
I'm asking for a friend.
Yeah, no, what this is doing is they basically just asked.
Would you fly this plane?
Yeah, would you be a passenger in this plane that you are building as we speak in this plant?
Go ahead, Rob.
Would you fly on one?
No.
You won't fly on one.
No.
Would you fly on one of these planes?
Oh, 15.
Okay, so by the way, 15 workers, none of them would fly on it.
But going back to John Barnett, guys, so as we all know, Boeing planes have been falling apart.
The doors have been flying off.
Tires are falling off.
By the way, mid-flight, just yesterday, Airlines Flight 830 from Sydney to SFO started leaking fuel and somebody recorded it.
They had to turn back around and land.
And mind you, Boeing and United both employ DEI practices, so I wouldn't wonder why.
But going back to John Barnett, guys, he worked for 30 years on the 787 Dreamliner, the one that's having all these problems.
All right.
So in 2017, he started taking legal action and he was alleging that the plane isn't being built.
When the plane isn't being built fast enough, the employees start getting scrap metal from broken parts like a bin to use so that the plane gets done in time.
Okay.
And Pat, you mentioned the oxygen tanks.
One quarter of them would fail.
So it's been going on since 2007.
He did a deposition with Boeing's lawyers on Friday, Saturday, under oath, and then Saturday, he's found dead in his car, self-inflicted gun.
Like, dude, what did he tell them?
Is what I'm curious.
The thing that bothers me, and I'll let Rob play what he said on TMZ here in a second.
It's so obvious, guys.
Let's be real.
This isn't a conspiracy.
This is beyond coincidence.
We all know what happened.
Somebody somehow, allegedly, with Boeing said, guys, go end that guy's life.
I think so.
Adam always says, don't say 100%.
Explain to me how he's in the middle of this.
He just got deposed by their lawyers.
And then he, what?
Because he can't handle the truth.
He shoots himself in his car.
That's bullshit.
This is exactly like the movie.
If you guys haven't seen it, go watch Michael Clayton with George Clooney, one of my favorite movies ever of all time.
Phenomenal acting from everybody.
A guy, a lawyer, finds out that a big pharmaceutical company killed thousands of people knowingly.
They hid the research and he wants to go public.
The pharmaceutical company hires two hitmen to kill him and make it look like a suicide.
It's blatantly obvious.
And the only thing, the only sad thing, in three days, nobody's going to talk about this.
And this is what he told TMZ Pat about Boeing.
How long ago is this?
This is recently.
Okay, go ahead, Rob.
This is not a 737 problem.
It's a Boeing problem.
And I know the FAA's gone in and they've done due diligence and inspections to assure that the door plugs of the 737 are installed properly and the fasteners are torn properly.
But my concern is, what's the rest of the airplane?
What's the rest of the condition of the airplane?
And the reason my concern for that is back in 2012, Boeing started removing inspection operations off their jobs.
So it left the mechanics to buy off their own work.
So what we're seeing with the door plug blowout is what I've seen with the rest of the airplane as far as jobs not being completed properly, inspection steps being removed, issues being ignored.
My concerns are with the 737 and the 787 because those programs have really embraced the theory that quality is overhead and non-value added.
So those two programs have really put a strong effort into removing quality from the process.
So here's my thing, Rob.
I mentioned this when we first started talking about it.
It's only a matter of time because what's Boeing going to do?
Stop all these flights?
No, they're not.
I don't know what's going to happen.
It doesn't look good because every week something else is happening.
It's a matter of time till one of these things crashes, bro.
I'm shocked.
Boeing's stock has to be going down, right?
Let's take a look, Rob.
Oh, my God.
Like, Adam, are you flying anything Boeing 787?
That's the majority of their air.
I'd like to go five days.
Let's see what five days looks like.
I'd like to go.
Dude, look at that.
Are you crazy?
One month, Rob.
Yeah.
Six months.
Yeah, go to a year.
Okay, that's what it changed.
Are you guys trying to go on Boeing right now or any Boeing flight?
I'm not.
It peaked in, what, January of 24?
So the biggest thing to me is that Boeing has been more concerned about their share price going up than their playing staying up.
So it's, you know, John Oliver did an amazing expose on Boeing during his show.
And, you know, he highlighted some of the Al Jazeera things.
They left off some of the stuff in the clip.
They interviewed that guy.
The best part they left out in whatever clip you found.
They interviewed all those guys.
One guy was like, hell no, I didn't fly on those planes.
One guy said the quality is going down to shit.
Another guy called it sketchy.
One guy goes, yeah, I'd fly, but I kind of have a death wish.
That's what one guy said.
That's crazy.
Literally.
So what happened with Boeing has been a slow drip, but they've been concerned.
You know, their theme in 2021 was called more for less.
And there was a basically a move to have all Boeing employees basically be part of the stock price.
It was quote unquote, all Boeing employees play an important role in improving shareholder value.
What happened after the Trump tax cuts, as they called it in 2018, I think it was $2 trillion tax cut, Boeing, like many other companies, what do you think they did?
They basically did a stock buyback.
So there was a $20 billion stock buyback program.
CEO Dave Calhoun, Callahan, sorry, 92% of operating cash flow went to stock buybacks.
They didn't go to checking more parts.
Yeah, Dave Calhoun, there he is right there.
They didn't go to checking more parts.
They didn't go to more security.
They didn't go to better quality control.
They went to shareholders' pockets.
Okay.
So where does that lead?
Now, if you want to talk about the plane crashes that have existed since Boeing, specifically the 737, Indonesian flight 189 crashes to the sea, never found.
Weird.
Never found.
Ethiopian Airlines Flight 737 was a Boeing 737.
No survivors.
What happened there?
Since then, the FAA grounded all Boeing 737s.
There's clearly a concern of what's going on here.
You talk about this whistleblower, this guy.
John Marnett.
Yeah.
There's another whistleblower, Ed Pearson whistleblower, who has urged managers to shut down the factory.
Here's my last point.
A lot of people are saying, well, what the hell do you want me to do at this point?
I got to fly.
You know, there's two main airline airplane manufacturers in America here around the world.
There's Boeing and then there's Airbus.
So you have sites like Kayak that you can literally do a dropdown box to choose which type of airplane manufacturer to choose from.
So, and then let's not forget the reason that we're even talking about this.
What was that Alaska flight where the door just fell off?
Oh, that was his Boeing.
It was a Boeing.
Oh, exactly.
787.
So something's going on here with Boeing, and they're cutting corners, and they're more concerned with their shares than actual flight safety.
But going back to the main story, if we can, and I want to ask all three.
Actually, Rob, I want to know you too.
So John Barnett, what percentage of- He was Epstein.
Yeah, well, think about it.
And I'm being genuine right now.
God rest his soul.
Like he's coming forward, putting on blast a $120 billion company that's declining in price.
He does a deposition.
What is the percentage that Boeing, Boeing, paid people to somehow have him killed in a vehicle and make it look like suicide?
I'll give you guys mine after you guys.
Tom.
I can't put a percentage on it, but I'm.
Yeah, you can.
What do you think?
Highly unlikely, likely, where you want?
Timing makes me highly suspicious, right?
How can you not be suspicious when a guy is whistleblowing and you see the interviews with him?
He doesn't seem like a hippie from Marin County saying nonsensical things.
He sounded like a pretty cogent guy.
And you have to pick a number, Tom.
If you have to pick a percentage.
Here's what bothers me about it when I look at it objectively.
He's already been filmed and all this deposition stuff is out.
So this is in court.
He only had one more day of deposition.
To get the job done, he's already got the job done for this court case.
If you're going to investigate Boeing and you're going to take FAA is going to take action against them, and so he only had a half a day of testimony left.
If you're going to take care of a whistleblower, you take care of a whistleblower long before they ever get to court and put things in writing.
Evil doesn't exactly.
That's where I was going with this.
Because if they were going to do this, they would have done it before he testified.
But he just testified to that.
Hold on.
I just wanted a percentage.
I didn't need speeches, guys.
I just want to know the percentage that you think.
I don't need a diatronic.
Welcome to the Vincent O'Shaughnessy.
I just asked you, I just asked the number.
Tom said he doesn't want to give me the number.
I'm saying 95%.
I just went from 100 to 95 in two minutes.
Did I say 100%?
You did.
Did I add Tom?
No, he said he says, don't go 100%.
Yeah, I said Adam says, okay, that's fake news, which I?
You said Adam says don't go.
Where do you say I'm going?
Where do you?
Where do you put it?
Where do you?
I would say that that's a likely scenario Pat, if you give me.
You're saying it's a likely likely that Boeing did it.
Thank you, Adam.
I'm not saying that it's a hundred percent.
Like I'm Benny O'Shaughan, my name is Ibn.
I'm saying that there.
There seems to be a weird coincidence here.
How, how high was this guy's ranking?
Like he was in charge of the safety and everything for quality.
He was quality manager at the North Charleston plant making the 787 dreamliner state-of-the-art.
So quality manager, what is a quality manager?
Is quality manager a high-ranking per quality manager?
So he's managing the things.
Is he in the room of decisions being made?
Is he sitting with c-suites?
Is he sitting with board?
Is he talking to influencers?
How deep into it is he?
I don't know.
But to me listen, you have to give credence to the timing of this thing taking place.
Right, it's just a very strange timing and anytime you hear stories of saying he was found dead from a self-inflicted wound on march 9th and police are still investigating it.
I don't know man this is.
This is just a little bit weird and creepy on what's going on here and, by the way, Boeing has not been robbed.
Run a report, run a report uh, a poll, if you can.
And and the poll is not the poll of uh, ask the question, does this concern you on your next flight?
Booking your next flight?
Uh, 100?
A little bit, not at all.
Okay, because I I just want to know what people are going to be at with this, because you know there's already people that are afraid of flying right, and the last thing you need for the people that are afraid of flying to now add this on top of it, and what percentage of planes by air airlines flown?
What percentage of airlines fly Boeing planes?
Okay uh, all of them.
All of them buy from Airbus and Boeing on an alternative basis, the exception being the?
Uh, the UNIT Carriers terrorist electricity.
Southwest only buys Boeing 737 so that all their maintenance parts and all of their mechanics can be trained.
The same to save money.
So Southwest only uses.
If you've ever flown Southwest, you know that it's only.
You know American.
American flies the most of the jets as portion of its fleet, nearly one-third of its planes.
American Airlines are 737 800 jets.
Boeing was airplanes.
So, I mean, you okay, did you run the poll, Rob?
Did you run the poll?
Yes.
And what is it at right now?
I'm curious because I actually want to know what the markets at a markets, does Boeing safety issues concern you while booking your home?
78.
A little bit at all, 10%.
I mean, it should concern you, right?
And you can't have people being worried.
So imagine now a person saying, hey, your executive says, I need you to fly to Chicago to go something done.
You know, I got to tell you, I don't want to go.
Why don't you want to take the flight?
I'm worried about what's going on with the Boeing planes.
How does HR handle that?
What kind of an employee?
You know what I'm saying?
It's a little weird thing that's going on right now that they need to get their act together.
What the hell is this with people dying of your manager?
32 years that were with you, quality manager working on these planes.
And by the way, I hope they investigate this.
I hope they get a little bit deeper to see what's going on here.
This is a little bit concerning.
Anyways, okay.
We're at the end of the podcast.
We covered a lot of stories today.
