	Good evening.
	This is Rudy Giuliani, and this is the Rudy Giuliani Show.
	And tonight, we begin with what is a very, very disturbing situation.
	The President of the United States, the Secretary of State, the National Security Advisor, and just about everyone else involved has determined that Mohammed Khalil Who led the riots at Columbia last year and was leading the protests and riots this year and is a very,
	very big supporter of the homicidal terrorist group Hamas and is not a citizen of the United States and has at various times professed Great satisfaction with the destruction of portions of Israel on October 7 of 2023,
	in which children and women were killed, were targeted as the main sources of their ammunition and death.
	Hostages have been held and treated horribly, including killed, including Americans, which is the country that he happens to be in right now.
	This country has determined after great deliberation that Hamas is a homicidal group, out of this mind, crazy, insane terrorist homicidal group.
	Now, he supports them.
	He supports them, and I don't know the classified information they have, but it would not surprise me at all if he doesn't have very close relationships with them.
	By the same token, his advocacy for them...
	And the hatred and criminal acts that it has brought about are substantial.
	Now, true, we're in a democratic dictatorship in New York, and they let all of the rioters out, whereas if you go to the democratic dictatorship of Washington, the people who did considerably less damage were put in prison for two, three, actually 30 and 40 years for doing considerably less than this guy does.
	Now, the President of the United States is in charge of, with some oversight responsibility in the Congress of the foreign policy of the United States.
	The President of the United States is also in charge of who comes in and who goes out of the United States, again, with some legislative guidance, oversight, and laws.
	The President of the United States has determined this man is dangerous to the national security of the United States, but an extremely left-wing judge.
	With a history and a wife also who has devoted their lives to left-wing causes that I find to be left-wing causes that largely serve the interests of Red China and communism rather than the United States.
	I'm not saying they know that.
	What I'm saying is they were educated in Ivy League institutions that really for the last 30 to 40 years have incrementally The judge is the brother of, I think, the head of the economic council for Barack Obama.
	Despite the fact that I disagreed with his brother quite a bit on general orientation of the economy, I always found his brother to be one of the more rational and sensible members of the Obama administration.
	And he was, at times, not consistently, but more than just about anybody else, a very, very useful critic of the Biden administration, trying to restrain some of their massive inflationary spending, which, by the way, we're living with now.
	I believe his brother's name is Jason.
	I think that's right.
	Fullness of transparency that I knew their mother, Gail Furman, quite well, and had tremendous respect for her, although she also was way out there left wing, but a fine psychologist and a very fine woman.
	So this is not in any way personal reflection on any of them.
	I'm sure that this judge is an extraordinarily fine man.
	His brother seems to be, his mother surely was.
	I didn't know their father.
	In any event, he should really...
	This is not for him to decide.
	He should defer almost completely to the executive branch.
	This is a matter of foreign policy.
	The courts share nothing in foreign policy.
	Congress shares the right to make war, the appropriation power in terms of amount of money that's given away in foreign policy.
	They confirm many of the foreign policy operatives of the administration.
	So it is primarily, it's considered to be an area of primary executive responsibility with some sharing with Congress, as opposed to, like, exclusive federal responsibility.
	Some things are.
	Most things, there's some sharing.
	But the primary role here should be for the executive.
	So unless he is clearly wrong, he should be allowed to go forward when he makes a decision that this is affecting the national security of the United States.
	It sure as heck on its face seems rational.
	This guy has been proclaiming the glories of a group that dedicates itself to killing Jews and Americans and is furthering their ends very substantially in the United States.
	Exactly how much more they have on him, how much they'll deliver in sealed testimony.
	So the judge, so far, I am warning you that he has a left-wing background, and his wife runs a left-wing organization, and they are described that way by many people.
	I don't know them.
	I have to say that his original decision was almost a no-brainer.
	Of course you're going to give a temporary restraining order in a situation in which a person's being deported.
	All he's doing is saying, well, let's take two days and we're having a hearing on Wednesday.
	If you send them away, it's irreparable damage.
	In the 10 minutes he had to decide the case, he probably couldn't decide who has the better chance of winning the case.
	Basically, now he gets to the more important part, which is the preliminary injunction.
	That'll be on Wednesday, meaning tomorrow.
	And there he'll hear from both sides.
	And to grant a preliminary injunction, normally, two things.
	The person seeking it has to have a substantial chance of success on the merits.
	Just exactly what's standard of proof?
	It certainly has to be more than it.
	More than half, you know, more than just probably clear and convincing evidence.
	That's not reasonable doubt.
	But you have to carry the burden.
	That means that Khalil's lawyer has to carry the burden of showing that it's more likely than not that they're going to win this case.
	In other words, in the end, when it gets to the Supreme Court, the Supreme Court is going to say, Mr. President, you can't throw this guy out.
	I doubt that.
	I doubt that because the presumption should be in favor of the executive here.
	In other words, if there's a rational basis for his conclusion, there's no way that you can reverse it.
	The guy was involved in so many demonstrations against the United States for a tremendous enemy of the United States, from a murderous enemy of the United States, and from an avowed enemy to the death of our greatest ally, Israel.
	All of that should allow the president to say he's a danger to our national security, and judges don't have the capacity to really overrule that, either on the merits or constitutionally.
	Second thing you would have to decide is, is it irreparable damage?
	Well, yeah, it is.
	But if you don't have a chance of success on the merits, well, tough luck.
	Then the irreparable damage exists and you get thrown out.
	So I do believe so far the judge is right.
	I think the right decision on Wednesday will be to lift the temporary restraining order and allow the president to proceed as quickly as possible to throw this exceedingly dangerous person to the United States, to our best ally, Israel, and to world peace.
	And someone who is supporting a group that murders men, women, children, and seems to enjoy having parents watch their children die, children watch their parents die.
	And up until the very last minute, has engaged in macabre releases of hostages and is still holding an American.
	So let's see what happens.
	This Mohammed Khalil is he was a student at Columbia, one of, I'm sure, many, many that hates the Jewish people, loves the Hamas terrorist cause. loves the Hamas terrorist cause.
	What they were teaching them at Columbia, anyone can.
	I don't know.
	Who knows?
	So it did result today in any number of protests.
	It was hard to keep track of them.
	Originally, there was going to be a protest at Columbia, then it was going to be off-site, then there was going to be a Protests down at City Hall.
	That, I think, moved to Foley Square, which is where the federal courthouse is.
	And then there was going to be one at Washington Square Park and then a parade.
	All of these people parading very, very strongly in favor of a devout enemy of the United States.
	So avowed that it wants to destroy the country they're in.
	How they pretend to be citizens of this country, or if they are, who knows.
	And who knows who's paying them?
	Soros put a lot of money in the past last summer to provoke these riots that led to burning buildings, people being harmed, hurt Jewish students being severely attacked, including physically, and almost none of them went to jail because the cases came before crooked Soros-appointed DAs.
	That's why Khalil is walking around.
	But he isn't a citizen.
	He has no right to be here.
	It's a privilege.
	And he sure as hell has overstayed his welcome.
	The reality is he will now be part of a large group of people that are going to be thrown out like this.
	So eventually, whether Judge Furman goes along with it or not, I have no doubt that what the law is and that the president has the right to do this in order to protect us.
	So today the protests really got out of hand.
	Do we have some, do we have, I think number three has some of the protests and number four?
	That looks like at Columbia to me.
	That looks like Columbia's campus.
	That's inside the Columbia campus.
	This would just be students or anybody they absent-minded to let in.
	But here these are.
	I mean, I don't know if these are paid.
	These are probably mostly students.
	Are there a couple of paid people in there to egg them on?
	Probably.
	But this will give you an idea what they teach them at Columbia.
	They teach them at Columbia that Hamas is the good guy and America and Israel is the bad guy.
	This is sick.
	It is an indictment of our educational systems.
	It's no different than when Ted last year interviewed.
	The two students from Fordham who came down to NYU to join NYU in the pro-Hamas, anti-Israel demonstrations.
	And when he asked them why they were there, they were saying they were supporting NYU. And then the other girl said, well, my friend may know better.
	She's smarter.
	We thought we could get an answer out of her, and she knew even less.
	Well, that'll tell you about Fordham, but it's no different at this place here.
	So let's take a look at, I mean, that's not a particularly interesting group.
	Why don't we take a look at the group down at the courthouse that got into fights with the cops?
	That's the next one.
	That's a flag of a country that spends a great deal of time at prayer, praying for destruction.
	That's a country and a group that celebrated mightily the man who got killed in that city on September 11th.
	That's a group who has organized the killing of Americans, Hamas.
	Their predecessor, Arafat, well, they really are from the Muslim Brotherhood side, but Arafat, I can tell you, killed 27 Americans, and Clinton used to kiss his backside.
	This was a long time coming, this massive support against the enemies of the United States.
	This would be like marching the streets in favor of Nazi Germany.
	And they share in common with Nazi Germany the elimination of the Jewish people, as did their ancestors.
	The chief mufti or religious leader in that area, during the period up to the Second World War and during the Second World War, was one of Hitler's best friends.
	Hoping that Hitler would accomplish his final solution, which would be elimination of the Jewish people.
	This is the group they are marching in favor of.
	People who are members of Hamas, indeed Palestinians who are not members of Hamas, are not allowed in Jordan.
	They are not allowed in Egypt.
	Would you imagine they know that?
	I don't think so.
	I think the vast majority of them are products of the completely destroyed higher education system that we have in most of America.
	And the more elite the university, the more anti-American, the more Marxist, and the more completely contrary to any form of dispassionate or objective learning.
	And when you go question these people, including the ones who are supposed to be smart, they don't really know what the hell they're doing.
	They're criticizing the United States.
	They were brought up and taught to hate us because Marxists got control of our higher education.
	Colombia is probably one of the best examples of that.
	President Trump has already taken the first step into funding Colombia because of its...
	Well, because maybe he saw our conclusion, Ted, when we had the final analysis of who hates Jews more, Harvard or Columbia, and Columbia One hands down.
	I mean, the reality is that if you're Jewish, why the hell do you go there?
	Why the hell do you go there at all?
	Your kid could turn out like that.
	Your kid could turn out not working.
	Marching the streets in favor of maniacal murderers and against maybe the greatest government in the history of the world that the spoiled little bastard doesn't realize he's one of the luckiest people in the world being here.
	Well, if they're citizens, there's only so much we can do to them.
	But we don't have to put up with this with people who are coming here.
	You don't have a right to come here.
	It's a privilege.
	And we grant it to you if we like you, if we think you can help us constructively.
	It would be impossible to allow the whole world in here, wouldn't it?
	So you have to make choices based on some principle.
	Why not merit?
	Oh, merit.
	No.
	Identity.
	Really, it comes down to who they like better rather than...
	Who normal people would like better.
	They like terrorists and murderers better.
	And people who espouse, in some cases, ridiculously insane theories about human life, human sexuality.
	The strange thing is those two things sort of conflict.
	It'd be very interesting if they ever all meet up.
	So Mohammed Khalil is a Syrian-born Palestinian.
	Notice Syrian-born Palestinian?
	There were very few Palestinian-born Palestinians because there was no Palestine.
	Nor were there Palestinians.
	Arafat made them up.
	We go back to the Bible.
	You find me the Palestinians.
	They don't exist.
	There's an area of Judea and Samaria that's called Palestine.
	It's an area.
	Lots of people live there, including Jews.
	There aren't a Parastelian.
	There are Syrian people.
	There are Jordanian people.
	I'm not even sure they're Jordanian people.
	That's sort of a made-up country, too.
	They're Egyptians.
	Arafat was an Egyptian.
	He's a Syrian.
	And there is a general allegation.
	I mean, specific allegations are his instigating and creating out riots against the laws of...
	Against the laws of New York and also against the laws of the United States and supporting a terrorist group.
	But also there appears to be classified information that he is involved in a more substantial way with aiding and abetting the murderers in Gaza and elsewhere.
	And he led activities aligned to Hamas, a designated terrorist organization.
	This is the first of many arrests.
	That was a warning that came directly from the President of the United States, who the President concluded he's engaged in pro-terrorist, anti-Semitic, anti-American activity, and the Trump administration will not tolerate it, nor would any administration that is loyal to the United States, from which you could exclude the Biden administration.
	And he was transferred, before anybody could do anything, to the detention facility.
	In Louisiana, but for the intervention of Judge Furman, he would be back in Syria or somewhere.
	Syria will not take him back.
	That doesn't mean we can't drop him out of an airplane and put him in Damascus.
	Maybe he'll have a conversion like Paul.
	Somebody will appear to him and tell him, you shouldn't be supporting a group that kills people because that makes you a killer.
	You little shit.
	It is disgusting how much anti-Semitism there is at Columbia.
	It is infected with it.
	Now the president has put out a list of 60, I believe, universities that are being warned that they are going to the government.
	It's considering exacting penalties from them, meaning cutting off the tremendous amount of money they're getting from the federal government.
	There's a list of them.
	You can see it as I speak.
	It's shocks.
	And I see Harvard is 13th on the list.
	Johns Hopkins.
	I mean, these are universities.
	Ohio State.
	Pacific Lutheran.
	What the hell is Pacific Lutheran University on that list for?
	I mean, Martin Luther was anti-Semitic, but that was a long time ago.
	State University.
	Well, you figure the state.
	Swarthmore?
	Oh my gosh, yeah, of course.
	Boy, that's the new school.
	I mean, I'm surprised the new school doesn't have a branch over in Gaza.
	Tufts?
	Of course, any number of University of California ones.
	The ones that aren't there are now applying to be on the list.
	Oh, we were left out.
	Yale University is the last one on the list.
	I don't know if that's good or bad, if it was done in any kind of order.
	That covers a pretty wide range of America's best universities, doesn't it?
	If your university is not there, don't feel bad, huh?
	It's all been a bunch of elite shit anyway for a long time.
	The Ivy League has been living on its reputation for about 50 years, but that's bad enough.
	We knew they were...
	Exaggerated know-it-alls that taught their version of everything, which bore very little resemblance to history, science.
	I mean, science was the vaccine will cure you of COVID until it didn't.
	Then it will be better for you.
	It'll be, and it wasn't.
	And then there are no side effects, and there are.
	That's Columbia on science.
	You know, America really started in 1619. You remember the rewrite of history from a Harvard professor?
	I've only looked at several pages of the book.
	It was filled with, forget prejudice, bias, and hatred.
	It was filled with absolute.
	Factual inaccuracies that were idiotic, childish, sophomoric and stupid.
	And she got all kinds of awards from Harvard until the rest of the country looked at it and said, my God, this is a very dangerous, dangerous American hater, knowingly or unknowingly.
	Maybe she's doing it knowingly because she's very shrewd or maybe she's doing it knowingly because she really never should have been a history anything because she was not the product of Selection based on merit, but selection based on identity.
	I don't know.
	When I listen to her being interviewed, I can't imagine she has the analytical skills to be a good historian.
	She sounds like a flibbity-jibbit jerk.
	Just to get the idea that these are organized, they're doing one of these in Chicago and one of these in Los Angeles for now the great victim of American What do they call it?
	American authoritarianism.
	Khalil, Mohammed Khalil.
	The American authoritarianism is to protect ourselves against terrorist murderers.
	I'll take that kind of authoritarianism anytime over the Biden denial of free speech or what he did to me.
	This is tragic, what's going on.
	When you see young people, when you see young people, That are demonstrating in favor of a terrorist group.
	I mean, I've seen demonstrations all my life, going back to the civil rights demonstrations.
	And of course, there'd be demonstrations that I agreed with, demonstrations that I disagreed with, demonstrations that I was neutral about.
	But I don't remember too often, if ever, demonstrations involved in favor of a large group of murderers.
	Failure of educational system is the inability for these students to independently reach that result.
	There sure is plenty of source material around that would prove that to you, even videos.
	How they avoid it and go around marching for this group is, of course, crazy.
	And I would imagine that as we become more common sense in our approach, none of these idiots are going to get a job anywhere.
	I mean, I wouldn't hire them.
	I wouldn't hire them for domestic work.
	I'd be afraid of them.
	Maybe they should all.
	I mean, actually, why don't they go over and help Hamas?
	If they feel so strongly about this, oh, my.
	Their predecessor communists all went to Spain to fight against Franco.
	What are you guys, cowards?
	Why don't you go over and face the IDF? Yeah.
	Man.
	You better bring along big pods for these guys.
	Oh, boy.
	Well, the market is once again reacting to the tariffs that basically haven't happened.
	But that's what happens with markets.
	Markets don't even react basically to news.
	They react to anticipation of news.
	So we'll be right back very shortly and try to calm you down that our economy is headed very much in the right direction.
	Where was my water?
	Oh, here we are pretty much at the beginning of the process here at this pristine.
	I call it a laboratory, not like a factory.
	It's like a hospital.
	This is the beginning of the process for roasting.
	Deep grain, very good quality.
	Most people don't use this quality.
	We deal with small farmers because we like to know who we're dealing with.
	They give us the highest quality, all organic, non-GMO. You should know, all Arabica beans.
	No robusto.
	All Arabica.
	They're going to go into the roaster.
	and it'll get roasted for about 20 minutes or so oh my goodness look at these My goodness!
	You're gonna want to specially order these!
	This is what goes into Rudy's coffee.

	Back to the Rudy Giuliani Show, and we have with us Cara Castronova, who is in Washington.
	I believe she's at the White House, but we'll find out in a moment when we get her on and ask her about the busy day at the White House and also play for you the question that she asked our Commander-in-Chief.
	Hello, Cara.
	Hey, Rudy.
	How are you?
	It's an exciting day today, huh?
	Yes, it was an exciting day.
	There was a briefing, a lot of stuff going on here at the White House.
	You know, just a busy day.
	And it was a beautiful day in D.C., believe it or not.
	It's been so cold, but today was beautiful.
	So everybody was in a very good mood.
	Did you get me one of those cars?
	I wish I could have gotten you one.
	I know Rudy Giuliani needs a Tesla, definitely.
	I don't think so.
	But the one I like, which ones do you like best?
	I like the trucks.
	I think they're cool-looking, those really abstract-looking trucks.
	I heard they're fast.
	The ones that look like military vehicles?
	Yeah, I like those.
	A lot of people I know in Long Island have them.
	Oh, I would love that to intimidate people.
	You show up at their door with that, they think you're going to knock the house down.
	I know.
	And believe it or not, a lot of people don't know this, but that's actually a pickup truck.
	I didn't know that until I saw somebody.
	It's actually a pickup truck.
	You could kind of roll back the back, and it's actually something that construction workers use often, actually, in New York.
	So a lot of people didn't know that.
	I know I shouldn't be asking this.
	I'm wasting your time.
	But how much do they cost, those big things?
	They're not cheap.
	I don't know how much they cost, but I know that they're not cheap.
	I would say so, and I know that they drive themselves and they have all these crazy features in them.
	So, you know, the technology alone is pretty amazing.
	I don't know how I'd feel about, I don't know how you'd feel about a car that drives you.
	Well, my friend Rob has a Tesla, and I did react when the president got in the car and was shocked.
	I guess he hadn't been in one at the unbelievable display they have.
	Their display is like, it's unlike any other car.
	I mean, it's like you've gone into a movie theater.
	And he went into one of the small ones.
	So you asked a question today, right?
	I did.
	It was exciting.
	It was the first question I was able to ask Carolyn, and, you know, she's great.
	So my question really was about, I don't know if this is something that's on your radar, but Joe Biden obviously wasn't, you know, a lot of people make the assumption that he probably wasn't signing his executive orders himself.
	Or any official actions.
	And those pardons, like the ones to Liz Cheney, Dr. Fauci, you know, the Biden crime family, for lack of a better word, not to sound biased, but it's the truth.
	You know, he pardoned all these people.
	And now it's coming out that a lot of them were done via DocuSign.
	And, you know, I'm not sure if you're familiar with DocuSign, but it's very easy for somebody to sign for you, correct?
	So you know that all it takes is, you know, somebody just clicking.
	And signing a signature.
	And I find it very difficult to believe now that it's pretty undisputed that Biden was very mentally declining, especially in the last year of the presidency, that he was sitting there, you know, scrolling through those documents, reading them and actually clicking where he's supposed to click, dating where he's supposed to date.
	So really, a lot of the questions people are asking now is who was actually signing the docusigns?
	Who was clicking those buttons?
	And really, whoever was signing the docusign was probably controlling the presidency.
	Or the group of people that were.
	Somebody should immediately seize all of the pardons, the originals.
	Because by analysis, you can tell it's a docusign.
	I remember when nobody in Georgia or elsewhere would ever give us a single piece of paper to analyze out of millions and millions of ballots.
	Because they had no doubt that we would have been able to pick up through Pulitzer's technology the ones that were signed quickly, the ones that were signed by machine, and also the ones that were not on official paper.
	Right.
	And probably that would have turned the election around, but that's a different story.
	I know you're very smart with the law, obviously, legally.
	I don't know.
	It's unprecedented.
	I think it's DocuSign.
	And I know that President...
	It's interesting.
	I think it's an interesting legal question that if somebody clicked the button for him, you know, if a staffer, for example, was actually the one to click it, that's like, President Trump's not going to hand somebody a pen and say, please sign this document.
	That wouldn't really be, I don't think, a valid executive order or a pardon if it was the signature of the House.
	Boy, that's a hell of a question.
	I mean, that's a question.
	Right, and it's unprecedented.
	It's interesting.
	I seriously doubt that that question's ever been decided responsibly.
	How about a law?
	Right.
	The president has to sign a law.
	If he doesn't sign it, it's a pocket veto.
	So if that doesn't constitute a signature, if he signed any laws with DocuSign, the law is not in effect.
	Right, or if he didn't...
	Like, I did a little research and I... Go ahead, Mr. Mayor.
	Well, do we know if he signed some laws with DocuSign?
	A lot.
	I mean, I think a lot of his actions, official actions, were DocuSign.
	I think that Alina Haber alluded to last night on Fox, she was with Jesse Waters, that they want to look into this and find out if actually somebody else was funding it.
	Now, DocuSign is new, I guess, to a certain extent, so people do use it.
	People are very skeptical if Biden is actually the one who's actually clicking the button for the DocuSign.
	So that is technically forgery, I would think.
	And she alluded to the fact that are these pardons and some of these actions therefore legal if indeed somebody else was clicking on the DocuSign.
	It wasn't Biden himself.
	I will do a little research tonight, so I'll give you my answer tomorrow, which is probably going to be, it's a matter of first impression.
	It means it hasn't been.
	Either raised or answered before.
	And my goodness, this court at least is going to earn its money's worth.
	Doge will not be able to say they're not working.
	We're sending them questions that they never had a deal with before.
	Now, what about what's going on in Congress with the government being authorized to operate?
	It looks like the Democrats want to close it down.
	Right, and I know that there's a lot of controversy right now pertaining to Representative Massey that Trump is calling for possibly a primary challenger.
	If you're speaking about the spending bill, because he, as always, and I think it's always been Massey's platform to really just object to overspending in government.
	He's sort of like the Rand Paul of the House of Representatives.
	So there's a lot of controversy there because Massey has been a very big MAGA supporter for the most part and very supportive of Doge because he, again, really doesn't believe that the government should be overspending.
	So I think he's always the type to go against these spending bills.
	And therefore, I know, I guess that we have such a slim majority with the House.
	That if he votes no on it, that might kind of kill the whole thing.
	So people are upset with him this time around, but generally he has more people with him voting, you know, where it's just not one or two votes that are going to make a difference, but this time around it is.
	So there's a lot of controversy about that.
	And another reporter today actually asked Carolyn, the press secretary, really why President Trump was speaking out against Massey.
	And she explained that if anybody wants to go check out that explanation she gave today in the briefing room.
	Yeah, no, I did listen to it.
	Of course, it was kind of a...
	I mean, if I was the mayor and if somebody voted against...
	I only had six members of my party in the city council and 45 members of the other party.
	And if one of them had voted against me, yeah, I would have spent the next amount of time I had in office trying to beat him, get him out of office.
	Right.
	I mean, if we didn't stick together, we had no chance.
	And the same thing is true now.
	These people have to understand the majority is really, really close.
	You can't always get everything you want.
	Sometimes in order to get what you want, you got to decide which is more important.
	And they seem to have no wisdom, like a bunch of children.
	I want it just my way, just my way, just my way.
	That's not a democracy.
	Democracy does mean we have to negotiate.
	Right, and now we have such a razor-thin majority in the House that I think everybody just has to cooperate, or we probably won't get anything done.
	So, you know, that's my outlook on it, but I do understand, to a certain extent, that Massey always does this.
	He always is against the spending, just like Rand Paul, and he's pretty much staying true to his character, which is to be respected, I think, but at the same time, right now, we just, like I said, have such a small majority.
	I love Rand Paul, and I get along.
	I really...
	I admire him because he's done so many things that are so good.
	But I think there's a rigidity here that isn't good.
	I also get a little upset with the, and I love Tucker Carlson, but the rigidity of their isolationism is really frightening at a time in which China wants to destroy us.
	I mean, we have to participate in the world.
	We don't have to be suckers.
	I think President Trump has to balance just right.
	But I don't want to see us go any further than that.
	Otherwise, China's going to take advantage of us.
	But you're doing a great job.
	Thank you very much.
	So are you.
	For these reports.
	And we'll get back to you tomorrow.
	I'm going to find out.
	You gave me one of those questions where I may not go to sleep tonight when I get into one of these legal questions.
	Yeah, I'm interested to hear what you have to say because I know you're one of the brightest out there when it comes to legal.
	Yeah, there's another one I should tell people to listen to later.
	This is a real puzzle.
	So if there's a case in which a doctor in New York prescribed abortion pills for a patient in Texas, it's illegal to do that in Texas.
	But New York has a bill that protects you against the law of another state that would prohibit an abortion.
	Texas says he still violated our law.
	We want him extradited to Texas so we can prosecute him.
	New York says, well, you can't.
	He didn't commit the crime in your state.
	He committed the act in our state.
	And Texas says, but it has an effect in our state.
	Suppose he had ordered a murder in our state.
	That's the way we look at it.
	Exactly.
	And what about, was the abortion pill shipped?
	Was it shipped over state lines?
	No, no.
	I would imagine he had to have gotten it out of state because Texas, since they're illegal, probably their pharmacies wouldn't fulfill such a prescription.
	So he had to have gotten it out of state.
	I know that things are more criminal.
	Right.
	I think things are more like interstate commerce or when things cross state lines, sometimes it's more criminal.
	I'm just saying I'm not a legal mind like you, but I know that when they cross things over state lines that are illegal, it's very serious.
	I don't know, but that's a good question.
	So that's going to be the question in New Jersey, where the police officer was shot by a 14-year-old boy.
	In New Jersey, a 14-year-old is considered a juvenile.
	They get tried in private, and they can't get more than 20 years in jail.
	And he killed a 27-year-old police officer.
	So now they're trying to figure out how to get it into the federal court.
	And of course, President Trump wants to have the death penalty for people killing police officers.
	But we don't have it right now.
	So there are going to be a lot of interesting questions coming up, and this is a really sad one.
	His funeral's on Friday.
	Well, again, thank you, and God bless you.
	Thank you, Mr. Mayor.
	Have a good night.
	Thank you.
	I think you all look forward to her reports.
	If you don't, you're crazy.
	We're going to take a short break, and we'll be right back.
	Do we have a market summary?
	I can look for one and put it on there.

	Tired of volatile stocks and tiny dividend yields?
	Here's something different.
	Imagine collecting steady monthly income from America's richest oil fields without owning a single oil stock.
	While everyone else stresses about the market, you could be earning passive royalty income month after month.
	This unique investment has nothing to do with drilling, exploration or operations.
	You simply collect your share of the profits when oil companies pump oil.
	The Oxford Club's Mark Lichtenfeld has found what he calls the perfect income investment, a unique oil royalty opportunity that's still flying under Wall Street's radar.
	And you can get started with just $25.
	Head to RudyOilBoom.com now to discover more.
	That's RudyOilBoom.com.
	Stop worrying about the market and start collecting oil royalty checks instead.
	Welcome back to the Rudy Giuliani show.
	And thank you.
	And thank you once again to Cara for doing such an excellent job.
	Well, I mean, people are, of course, very, very confused, I think, and, yeah, confused about the economic approach of the administration.
	Now, I'm not confused, and lots of people that...
	Understand Donald Trump's philosophy going way back about trade and America being taken advantage of.
	And just like Doge and all of the tremendous amount of re-engineering that has to be done within the government departments to have a government that vaguely represents what our founders wanted is difficult.
	But the one thing I would not do.
	You get terribly concerned about what the market does on any given day.
	The market doesn't really react to actions that happen.
	The market reacts because people try to get ahead of that.
	They try to react to what they think is going to happen.
	And that's why any given day of the market can be terribly inaccurate.
	For example, I'll give you a brief example.
	Suppose way back a month or two ago, you saw all the news accounts about how he was going to impose a 20% tax.
	Let's just pick Mexico, on Mexico.
	And you owned stock that was sensitive to the Mexican economy.
	A Mexican company, an American company, there's a lot of business there.
	And therefore, you would say to yourself, oh my God, 20% tariff on Mexico?
	They already, although we have an imbalance of payments with them, it kind of works out the other way when you start a tariff war.
	Because they're selling to us, let's say, three times more than we're selling to them.
	So we're both going to impose a 20% tariff.
	But our 20% tariff that we impose is going to affect a lot more of their economy.
	Then they're 20%.
	Because we send them, and then if you do it proportionate to the size of us and the size of them, yeah, sure, it can cause some high prices in the U.S. here and there.
	Maybe.
	What it surely will do is ruin their economy.
	So now you see it, and you say, well, that's going to happen.
	I better sell my stock.
	And now, yesterday, President Sheinbaum had a festival.
	It was supposed to be a festival to protest Trump's tariffs.
	Instead, it was a festival celebrating the good relationship between the United States and Mexico with people saying, oh, this is a wonderful way to work things out.
	Now, I'm not going to tell you everyone is going to happen that way, but you don't know.
	These are all being done for different purposes, all of which are enormously important.
	So the Mexico and Canada tariffs are, in fact, actually at this stage, they're not.
	The Mexico and Canada tariffs, they get their attention on the border, particularly with regard to the fentanyl crisis.
	And in Mexico, it works faster and better.
	Than anybody thought.
	And I give great credit to President Scheinbaum for that.
	And she's even anticipated in some respects what he wanted and took care of it beforehand.
	She doesn't want American troops on the border.
	So she's putting her troops there.
	She knows that if her troops are unreliable and drugs get through, it's going to change.
	So she makes sure they don't go through.
	Hence.
	Do you know that already last month was the lowest month for people coming over the border in the history of keeping the statistics?
	I didn't say the lowest month in 20 years.
	I didn't say the lowest month.
	I said the lowest month as far as we know, ever.
	And it was a period of time we didn't keep those statistics.
	But since we have, it's the lowest month.
	And it's just getting started.
	Now, that wouldn't have happened without Scheinbaum.
	And a lot of the things that he said he has to do, he doesn't have to do.
	It took him nothing to get Remain in Mexico.
	It took him nothing to get the 10,000 to 15,000 troops flooding that zone.
	I really had thought he was going to have to make a kind of neutral zone there.
	In other words, block out Ten miles on either side as a neutral zone.
	And nobody can go into that zone and they're treated like criminals if they do.
	The only way to come in is through the border points.
	I don't think he's going to have to do that.
	Now, I don't know the situation up in Canada as well.
	It certainly is not as big a contributor to the fentanyl crisis as Mexico because the Mexican cartels have the direct These are not new relationships.
	But they do use Canada when they want to sneak people in.
	I remember way, way back when we almost had a cancel on New Year's Eve celebration because some terrorists got over the border in Seattle that normally would come in down in Mexico.
	And a fair amount of fentanyl has come over that border.
	And Sissy Boy, who was the prime minister, didn't just pay no attention to it.
	Well, he's got his attention, and the guy has set up a strike force to handle it.
	He's brought in troops to handle it.
	I can't say it's been as successful as Mexico yet.
	But in neither case have the tariffs been imposed yet.
	I think...
	Canada's got another one-month extension, and Mexico may have a two-month extension.
	And they're going to be discussing other tariffs within the MCA agreement.
	Don't confuse those.
	Those are purely economic.
	Those are his belief, and you tell me what's wrong with it.
	I have not heard a good argument.
	The Wall Street Journal, who's the most opposed to tariffs, has yet to print an article or a discussion that tells me what could possibly be wrong.
	If we make pencils in the United States, and they make pencils in Mexico, and they're essentially the same pencils, and if I send my pencils into Mexico, they put a 20% tariff on it.
	But if they send their pencils into America, we don't put any tariff on it.
	Well, if I don't do that, aren't I selling out my workers?
	That's how we lose industries.
	This is what the geniuses who ran our country were doing it to us.
	Now, I know this because he used to bang my head in about this every time I was at a ballgame.
	You don't know how long Donald Trump has been on this.
	And you don't know how long ago he convinced me that he was right.
	But I was not involved in this.
	I used to tell him I would never be so stupid for the city.
	If somebody charged me X to get into their city, I would charge them the same to get into my city.
	And what the heck's wrong with that?
	Just protecting your citizens.
	And what kind of doofuses would allow this to happen?
	Well, the doofuses were the American presidents.
	So, his tariff policy is so complex and sophisticated that it only can come from a guy who has a mind like a genius on something like this.
	But believe me, I understand it now.
	So when he says it, I can think ahead to where he's going.
	And in most cases, it has more than one reason.
	It's not just collection of money.
	It's national security.
	Keep out the fentanyl.
	Keep out the arms.
	Keep out the terrorists.
	It's reestablishment of American business.
	It's American independence.
	Because like all of us, he was shocked that we got 95% of our medicine from China.
	And then, I'll tell you even more, this war over the superchips, which I call them.
	I mean, they're the chips that he used for the massive, massive quantum computers, the ones that he used for the upper-level AI market there controlled by Taiwan.
	And the market on the regular chips by China.
	So he wants to diversify that.
	He wants our own capacity to be able to do it so that in a pinch we can do it for ourselves.
	And he wants reliable contracts with countries that we can trust to do it with us and for us.
	And in the case of Taiwan, they executed a brilliant agreement, and I saw no one analyze this properly.
	I mean, I saw them analyze it from the point of view of this is really great, a lot of jobs.
	They didn't get to the second or third level of that agreement.
	Second and third level of that agreement is, God forbid, if China should attack Taiwan and seem like it was going to succeed, you've got to believe those chip factories are going.
	But you want a backup in the United States.
	Just like if, God forbid, you've got to give up a fort, you destroy all the arms unless you're Biden and you want to give them to the terrorists who are now killing us with them.
	But that's, you know, the rare occasion.
	When you get a combination of a traitor and a demented human being in the White House, normally that doesn't happen.
	So, you know, if you just analyze that deal, because that's what the, not just the biased media, but the airhead media is able to get out of it.
	They didn't understand three quarters of that deal.
	So, there's the market.
	Have people seen it?
	That's a 1% drop in the Dow and not much on NASDAQ at all, which is the tech market, right?
	I'm surprised, actually, because the tech market got hit really bad yesterday.
	And the S&P is down 7.6%.
	NASDAQ is 0.18%.
	I was surprised that that was so low.
	That was such a small hit.
	And what was that?
	Earlier in the day, that one was about 1.5, right?
	I think it came down toward the end.
	Yeah, but at the end, that usually happens.
	Unless it's a really, really bad day.
	At the end, people are trying to get bargains.
	So, it'll be interesting to see what happens tomorrow as he explains it more.
	And don't worry about it.
	We're moving in absolutely the right direction.
	And he's absolutely right.
	We're still the strongest country on earth, and we're going to be so strong, we're not going to know what to do with it.
	But really, God bless the people of Israel and Ukraine, and these agreements are being made now by all the important people, and the poor people who are going to die are just sitting there.
	What's going on in Ukraine is tragic that people are dying right now.
	They shouldn't have been dying for the last two months.
	This war is over.
	Just tell the idiots that.
	God bless you.
	God bless America and go to X and we'll continue as if nothing happened.
	Good evening, this is Rudy Giuliani.
	This is America's Mayor live and live from Palm Beach.
	Well, we're going to start with, and we don't usually do this, we're going to start with the market because everybody is concerned.
	Well, not everybody.
	Some people are concerned about the market and some people are sophisticated and have been in this long enough to know that one day, two days, three days in the market doesn't mean anything.
	And if you overreact to it, you can really, really hurt yourself.
	For example, as I said earlier, if you sold stocks that were sensitive to Mexico three weeks ago because there was going to be a tariff, you now don't have a tariff, and you have America and Mexico celebrating what is described as one of the best relationships ever, which means everything you sold, you lost the advantage.
	Of how it came back.
	And you just lost the money.
	So I'm going to ask Stephen, who is an investor.
	When you look in a vacuum, you look at one day, two days, and you see the numbers there, the S&P down less than a percent, but 7.10, so more of a percent.
	The Dow Jones down a percent at 0.1.
	And NASDAQ really not down.
	NASDAQ insignificant, 0.18.
	What does it tell you?
	Well, if we look at just the closings and how we did today, it feels like regular volatility.
	Investors are used to these swings.
	These are not particularly large swings.
	The real kind of panic came earlier when the market was down, but then we saw a lot of investors snap up those shares, like you said, buying it at somewhat of a discount.
	And it does really depend on what you think the outcome of the tariffs will actually be.
	So if people are betting on them just going into effect, that's one thing.
	And then some investors are anticipating some deal-making and some agreements that might be beneficial to the economy.
	And a lot of it, too, doesn't necessarily even depend on policy.
	A lot of this is just cash flows and money flows.
	You can't put too much blame on anyone for the market, typically.
	It's actually a fool's errand to assign blame for the market.
	I was not surprised by anything.
	If you looked at your portfolio today, you thought regular volatility.
	The Wall Street Journal that is very often negative on Trump, particularly because of tariffs, even they say that this is probably not really the tariffs.
	This is a...
	Correction that really has to get made because we had an unreal economy for a very, very long time with no interest rates, with the government pumping.
	I mean, we took the government budget in four years and we increased it by $3 trillion.
	Oh, yeah.
	So people are feeling wealthy if they're looking at their portfolios, even relative to just a few years ago.
	So everyone is still way up and feeling, you know.
	Like, they have a significant amount invested.
	Like, we've enjoyed such strong gains that, yeah, we did need a little bit of a pair back.
	And prices are still high.
	Yeah, and I, you know, his strategy, if it works, and, I mean, the things that are working take a while to make a difference.
	There are now, I think, five automobile companies that...
	Two have moved, three are considering moving.
	Moving their production from Mexico to the U.S. Well, we covered Honda moving to Indiana, a planned investment.
	Stellanus, who makes Chrysler now, right?
	They were going to close down a factory, I think, in Indiana.
	Instead, they're building a new one and keeping that one.
	Yes, and actually, perhaps more significant, the Taiwan semiconductor investment.
	It's massive.
	And it's also, it's related to national security.
	And it's going to make everything more competitive and all these things that are running on AI very useful and cheaper.
	Well, I mean, a lot of these tariffs are multifaceted.
	And the idea that all of them are going to have an effect on the economy is just incorrect.
	And the reality is that some of them have a good effect on the economy.
	For example, the tariffs have now produced an increase in the number of businesses, the number of jobs.
	It takes a minute for that to permeate, right?
	So the jobs aren't going to come overnight, but it is more of a long-term view of things, which is how good leaders tend to think.
	You know, long-term economic gains for America.
	Charlie Gasparino, who has been writing about the market for years and covered me when I was involved in the Bosque and...
	Madoff cases and all the cases involving the markets in the 80s said, think of the current U.S. economy as a junkie winning himself off heroin, which is never easy.
	But pretty apt, honestly.
	Speaking of Madoff, man, he fleeced a lot of people right around our studio here.
	And the Wall Street Journal editorial, which is, as I said, very much obsessed on tariffs, basically says this is a...
	This would have happened with or without tariffs because of the long-term impact on the economy of the tremendous amount of spending that has to regularize itself.
	And the real question is, are tariffs going to be the sole obsessive concern of his administration, or are they mostly tools to get to another place?
	And I would say it's the second, including reciprocal.
	If you can get to reciprocal tariffs, that should balance out.
	And that's the definition of free trade right there.
	Free and fair.
	So, we'll see what's going to happen, but take a look at some of these firms.
	Honda and Hyundai have already made their decision and are moving.
	Stellantis has, I think, made the decision to keep the factory they're going to move to Mexico in the United States and build another one.
	Volkswagen and Volvo cars are looking at places.
	In America to build a factory to avoid any possibility of a tariff.
	And as you said, Compal Electronics, the Taiwanese laptop maker, is going to invest in five different locations in the United States.
	Arizona and Texas being the two that have been decided on.
	LVMH, which makes Louis Vuitton and Dior, is considering.
	And negotiating a move, the Italia liquor company, Campari, wants to be in the United States.
	The only one I don't know is Swedish tissue maker, Essity.
	And they are negotiating to move and have a place in the United States.
	That is a tremendous amount of business, and that's the ones we know about.
	I mean, I don't know why they don't say, well, you know, this guy did wonders for our economy last time.
	He obviously knows what he's doing.
	The people who criticize him are, the best thing I can say about them are theoreticians.
	They've never run a business, they've never done anything practical, and they're jealous as hell.
	So why do they, I mean, he's got the best people around him.
	He knows his whole presidency rests on what he's going to do about the economy.
	I know what that's like.
	I knew my whole mayoral rested on reducing crime, and there's no way I wasn't going to reduce crime.
	If I had to go out in the street and make the arrest myself, I would.
	If he has to fund some of these things himself, he will.
	So I don't think I would be as concerned.
	And I do think some of these things are working real fast.
	Look at these companies already investing.
	Well, if we're talking domestic policy as well, President Trump is, first and foremost, he's a businessman.
	And he's trying to make it easier.
	And that's what we see across all these federal agencies.
	Trying to make it easier for businesses to do business, and that's actually just substantively good for all these companies, which is therefore reflected in the market.
	So, big piece of news today, right?
	The United States now, it's amazing how it all changes in a week.
	Was it a week ago, Zelensky was getting his ass kicked out of the White House?
	He didn't want to make peace.
	He even announced ominously, this is going to be a long war.
	Now, According to our Secretary of State and the head of national security for the President, we have an agreement with the more recalcitrant Ukraine, and now the ball has been served into the Russian court.
	So tell us, Ted, why don't you tell us what happened?
	And also, let's see if we can put on a little...
	I mean, I think the Secretary and the...
	And the National Security Advisor did a good job of explaining it.
	That's right, Mayor.
	So Secretary Rubio and the National Security Advisor were in Saudi Arabia today, and they have reached an agreement.
	Ukraine has agreed to a ceasefire proposal.
	And as the Secretary of State put it, the ball is now in Russia's court.
	The Secretary and the National Security Advisor both speaking to reporters and making it very clear that the decision now is up to Putin.
	I think there's a little confusion about where it came from.
	This originally was a proposal from Zelensky to America to have a ceasefire.
	And Zelensky has said that Walls and Rubio broadened it.
	To a much bigger ceasefire.
	And he's going along with it.
	So it's going to be a 30-day, nobody shoots anybody.
	You stop the shooting.
	Now, the only reason I can see that Putin might try to delay it or fool around with it, I think this thing would have gone down like that a week ago.
	But in the interim, Putin has figured out maybe he can take Kursk back, and then he won't have to trade for it.
	Because immediately upon getting that extra time, he's—I mean, last night was a terrible, terrible set of attacks.
	I mean, the Ukrainians attacked them, and they attacked the Ukrainians, and it seemed like they're playing for position.
	But that's okay.
	That's great, except they're killing people.
	And this war could—the ceasefire came in a week ago, and all the people would be alive.
	Everybody dying right now.
	I'm sure President Trump is saying to himself, are you crazy?
	Just do the ceasefire.
	If you can't agree, go back and fight in a month or two.
	But what are you killing people for nothing now?
	Which has been going on for quite some time.
	You have some film on the attacks.
	They really were pretty, or on the secretary?
	Yep, we have plenty of footage here.
	Let's start with some footage from the ongoing attacks in Ukraine.
	Sorry, just got a lot.
	So this is some of the fighting happening right now in Kursk.
	So we're gonna play some video.
	So this right here, folks, what we're about to show you is fighting happening in Kursk.
	So this is in Russia.
	Kursk is in Russia.
	So this is just some footage of the fighting.
	Should we go to your map?
	No, no.
	Show the pictures.
	This is just video.
	As we play the footage, of course, the U.S. and Ukraine are calling for a 30-day ceasefire subject to the acceptance of Russia this following talks in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday.
	The U.S. will also immediately lift its pause on intelligence sharing and resume security assistance to Ukraine.
	Both countries said in a statement.
	The U.S. and Ukraine took important steps towards restoring durable peace for the Ukraine.
	That's a quote from the statement.
	Again, the statement goes on to read, Ukraine expressed readiness to accept the U.S. proposal to enact an immediate interim 30-day ceasefire, which can be extended by mutual agreement of the parties and which is subject to acceptance and concurrent implementation by the Russian Federation.
	The United States will communicate to Russia that Russian reciprocity is the key to achieving peace.
	Secretary of State Marco Rubio, of course, who led the delegation to Jeddah today, said the ceasefire proposal will be delivered to Russia directly through multiple channels.
	Thank you.
	Secretary Rubio said the offer is to stop the shooting.
	The goal here is the only way...
	Out to end this war is to negotiate out of it.
	There's no military solution to this war.
	So I think we're watching Kursk right here.
	Right.
	This is the Russian.
	Shall we go to the map?
	I can show them where it is.
	I can show them what is at stake here.
	So Kursk is up here.
	Hold it.
	Kursk is up.
	You see where it says Russia?
	It's a little light.
	This map happens to be a little bit light, but it's a good map.
	We don't want to spoil it.
	Let me just put this right here.
	We'll get it going just the right way.
	Come on, Dobie.
	Well, Kursk is up there.
	Right there.
	There's Kursk, and that's where the fighting is taking place.
	That's in Russia.
	The line is here.
	The line's here.
	That's the border.
	So you can see it's right over the border from Sumi...
	From Sumy, Ukraine, and from Kharkiv, the second largest city in Ukraine.
	And the Ukrainians took that about a year ago.
	Very opportunistic and very smart.
	I always saw it, and I imagine it's the case, to trade it.
	Since Russia had taken all of what you see there, they wanted to be able to say, we'll give you this back.
	If you give us back, they've pretty much acknowledged that they're not going to get everything back.
	I know what they should get back.
	I don't know if they can get it back, and I don't know, given all of the peculiarities of Ukrainian corruption, I don't know what they put first.
	But from our point of view, the United States of America, if we have this deal with them for rare minerals, two-thirds of the rare minerals are in the Ukrainian now section of Ukraine, and one-third are in the Russian part, and that's all up here.
	It's all up there.
	So Russia's not going to give away the whole thing because they're not going to give away their road to Crimea.
	Would they narrow their road?
	Sure, I think, if they got Kursk back.
	However, Zelensky, by delaying, Gave Putin one last hope of trying to get Kursk back militarily.
	He's tried it three times.
	Once on his own, at least once with the help of the North Koreans, which may have turned out to be counterproductive, and I believe the other time on his own.
	This is his fourth try, and the Ukrainians quite remarkably have held him off each time.
	Just like he's tried to take Kharkiv, that's the city right here, the city I love because I work there.
	He's tried to take Kharkiv, I don't know how many times, and not been able to do it.
	I thought he might try to get Kharkiv, but I think that's too hard.
	I think he must have made a choice between the two and said, well, first of all, it's easier maybe to get back Kursk.
	It's more defensible.
	I mean, he might even say, yeah, I'll give you a ceasefire.
	I'll give you a ceasefire in Ukraine, but I'm not giving you a ceasefire in Russia.
	I'm throwing you out of my country.
	Of course, then they would say, well, you're in my country, and you'd go back and forth.
	I'm hoping that, you know, a week ago, he wouldn't have had a chance to take Kursk back.
	I hope he's smart enough to realize it's a lot bigger than...
	He's going to get Kursk back.
	You're going to have to give up something for it.
	In order to make a good agreement, in order to make an agreement that I think Trump can bless, he's going to have to give something back.
	So why not let it be cursed?
	But I think that's what's going on in the Kremlin right now.
	I don't know who's going there to sell it to him, but I'm sure we'll be sending one of the crew to sell it to him.
	Probably they should figure out who has the best relationship with Putin and Lavrov.
	Lavrov is someone I think Putin would follow, has tremendous respect for.
	And without looking like it, they need this war over too.
	The Ukrainians delivered a pretty tough blow to them yesterday, and they returned it.
	I mean, but again, you've got to be saying to yourself, these are people that don't have to die.
	So, let's see.
	Let's just keep our fingers crossed that there's an end to this thing.
	So, shall we take a break?
	Let's take a short break, and we'll be right back after these very important messages.

	This is Rudy Giuliani back with you with America's Mayor Live.
	um The situation in Syria is getting extremely complicated.
	So we reported to you yesterday on a story that either hasn't been covered or has been covered over, that in Syria, the new government, the government that overthrew Assad under the leadership of President Ahmad al-Sharia,
	He has been, for some time, pounding the Alawite area of Syria, which also includes the place where most of the Christians are.
	And in the process of eliminating the so-called Saddam supporters, he was an alabite.
	And that's where his major support came from him and his family, which were who controlled that area for 50, 60, 70 years.
	And the government, now remember, this isn't really a government.
	This is one terrorist group replacing another.
	The group that took over up until, well, right now are a terrorist group designated by the United States.
	The so-called leader of the group theoretically left the group a year ago.
	And there is a tremendous doubt about that.
	Hayat Tahrir al-Sham is the name of the group.
	And it's labeled and described as a terrorist group by us.
	Europe, of course, has already lifted that because Europe will lift anything if they can trade with somebody and they have no principles.
	But we haven't done it yet.
	Even the Biden administration didn't want to accept immediately.
	That this group, Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, had actually become a non-terrorist group.
	They took note, for example, they have not abandoned their pledge to destroy the state of Israel and the Jewish people.
	Now, as far as I know, the president, Ahmad al-Shara, has not done that.
	Or the major leaders who are speaking for the party.
	Their attack on the Alawites has been brutal and unrelenting.
	They're just slaughtering them in the streets.
	And they are killing many, many Christians as they do that because they see the Christians as being more aligned with the Alawites than with them.
	And there's a real fear there may be a genocide that's involved here.
	And nobody is calling them to account for it.
	Like the European countries in the United States should say, and they're trying very hard to convince us that they're not a terrorist group anymore, that you're doing just the opposite.
	And somebody should speak up for the Christians, particularly Christian nations.
	How about that, huh?
	Now, the Kurds...
	The Kurds control a portion of Syria that is, I guess you would say, in the northwest corner.
	And it overlaps with the Kurdish area, to some extent, in Iraq.
	And there's always been a fear among the Iraqis and the Turks Because they are in several different countries, and the geography pretty much overlaps.
	But today, the Kurds made a deal with the terrorist government, and they're going to be part of it.
	So now that leaves two on the outside, the Alawites and the Christians.
	Now, this may mean that they want to incorporate them in the government.
	I don't know.
	It didn't sound that way.
	It doesn't look that way.
	It seems to me their answer here is genocide.
	And they're getting away with it because the press is so enamored of the fact they got rid of Saddam.
	Anybody must be okay.
	This group could be just as bad or worse than Saddam, which is usually the case in the Middle East when we do these things.
	So we have tremendous leverage here.
	Honestly, Europe doesn't, right now, unless they start putting up armies in Europe, none of these people care what Europe thinks.
	If Trump had somebody go visit Al-Shara and tell him, cut it out, you ever want to, I know you're working real hard to try to escape that terrorist label, legitimately or illegitimately.
	It's not working if you're killing a bunch of Christians.
	And really, even the Alawites, I mean, let's stop this nonsense, because this is what made Iraq go wrong.
	We tried to get rid of all of Saddam's people, and we got rid of everybody that could run the railroad.
	And we had a disaster there.
	How a nation like ours could make that mistake is hard to believe after the magnificent job that we did.
	In our occupation of Japan, Italy, and Germany, where we kept most people, except the top people.
	I'm not saying I would...
	I love doing that.
	I'm not saying that I wouldn't feel very uncomfortable having people who might have supported Hitler or might have supported the Japanese attack on us or might have supported Mussolini.
	But I also have to bow to practicality, which is you need a railroad engineer to run a railroad.
	And unless the guy was a really way out there supporter of the murderer, and maybe you got to chalk it up to ordinary people, just ordinary people.
	And yeah, and they do what they're told.
	I generally don't like that.
	I mean, if we're talking about, like, when you tell me about the FBI, I don't buy this.
	It's just one little group.
	I don't believe it's the whole FBI, but it's a lot more than one little group.
	And I think FBI agents who do barbaric things, like put shackles on white-collar criminals, put shackles on Peter Navarro, they know better not to do that.
	But FBI agents are highly skilled people.
	They're college graduates.
	They're selected very carefully.
	They better be really very substantial people.
	They got more power than most individual human beings.
	They can take away your liberty.
	Most people that work in a municipal situation can't take away your liberty.
	They don't have that kind of power.
	The whole point of this is it'd be a lot more comfortable looking at this group that said it isn't the terrorist group that we've known it to be for 30 years.
	But it's changed now that it's in power if they were being inclusive instead of murderous.
	And in that section of Syria, they're being murderous.
	So if you want to know where, if you want to know where this is taking place, the Amalites, we go back on the map here, that's Syria.
	You can see way, way, way down here is Israel.
	Israel is down here, okay?
	Right down there.
	Let's see if I can get it.
	Israel's right down there.
	Okay?
	And here's Syria.
	And Amman is Jordan, right there.
	Okay?
	If you remember the Bible story from yesterday about Paul the Apostle, this is where he was headed, Damascus, when Jesus knocked him off his horse and said, Saul, Saul, why dost thou persecute me?
	And that created probably the single greatest missionary in the history of Christianity, Paul, who converted all of the East.
	And he stopped being a persecutor and murderer of Christians, and he became their biggest supporter and their biggest...
	Missionary and eventually died for the church.
	But as you go east from here, from Damascus, all the churches that were established were established by Paul, including the Christians up here.
	This is where the Alawites are.
	One of the places they are.
	And Latakia, for example, right there.
	And this is also where the Christians are.
	The Kurds who made the deal with Damascus are over here.
	You might recognize some of the names like Tikrit and Kirkuk.
	Mosul, which is in Iraq.
	So you see, the Kurds are right here.
	You see how easily you could put a country together there?
	If you took the Syrian side and you took the Iraqi side and you made it Kurdistan?
	Well, that's what they want to do, and that's what creates the problem.
	But they made a calculated decision, the Kurds did, to go in with the government.
	And I think they did that because they've got a different focus.
	Their focus is Iran.
	Iran wants to eliminate them.
	They have, I'm sure, convinced themselves that with regard to Iran, they have a reliable ally in Damascus, in the new government in Damascus, that these people are going to remain anti-Iran no matter what.
	Otherwise, they made a terrible, terrible mistake.
	But in doing that, they left the Christians, the Al Whites, and a couple of other groups, the Druids, they left them sort of on the out.
	So we'll have to see what's going to happen.
	But the United States should intervene, at least for the point of view of saying, cut it out.
	Cut out trying to kill all of...
	All of the former terrorists, whatever they were, facilitators, and suddenly stopped killing the Christians.
	After all, you know, we're Christians.
	We don't take it too well.
	So let's go to Halle Razor, Jeff Sodardi, who is effectively the director of all the activities of...
	Of MEK and the American organizations that are separate from it, but work with it.
	I mean, it's quite a group that's separate from each other, but tied together.
	I mean, it's very complicated.
	Some are closer than others.
	But when you talk about the NCRI, that's very, very, it's a very disparate, but very, very close group.
	Isn't that right?
	Good day, Mayor.
	First of all, it's always a great pleasure to be on your show.
	And it was also a very great pleasure to see you in Washington, D.C. Yeah, I thought it was a great rally, by the way.
	Yes, we should definitely talk about that.
	But of course, as you said, the National Council of Resistance of Iran is actually the Parliament in Exile, headquartered in Paris.
	It has offices around the world, including in Washington, D.C. It actually encompasses political groups, organizations, personalities with different political backgrounds, but they're all focused on bringing down the regime, overthrowing the regime in its entirety.
	None of the factions within the regime has any legitimacy whatsoever.
	It wants to establish a republic form of government.
	Where the vote of the people counts, and it wants to separate religion from state.
	And it's headed by a woman, Mrs. Mariam Rajavi, the president-elect of the NCRI, who has introduced a 10-point platform based on gender equality, freedom of religion, freedom of political parties, freedom of speech, the free market economy.
	Peace in the Middle East and a non-nuclear republic, Iran.
	And also, it has elements within Iran.
	The main organization within NCRI is actually MEK, as you made reference earlier.
	The MEK has a very large presence, has had over the years inside Iran, and they have the forces on the ground known as the resistance units.
	And those are the ones who are confronting the Revolutionary Guards, are acting as engine for change.
	Inside Iran and, you know, confronting the IRGC in order to show the Iranian people that the regime and the IRGC are not 10 feet tall and they're very vulnerable.
	The goal is to bring down the Ayatollahs and impact the whole region.
	Now, right now, there's a pending...
	How about all the things going on?
	It's hard to keep track of it.
	You need a chart.
	You know, the different wars and disputes and...
	There's a pending offer to the regime to negotiate, although they've indicated in advance that they will not negotiate.
	And then the president sent to them a last-minute...
	I'm not going to wait a long time.
	It's got to be resolved quickly.
	But if you want to avoid...
	I don't know exactly how he put it, but I think he probably meant destruction.
	You've got one last chance.
	What do you think is going to happen with that?
	I mean, after all of this, we will not negotiate.
	We will not negotiate.
	Is it possible they'll negotiate?
	Well, as far as the regime is concerned, their goal is to maintain their nuclear weapons program.
	Using all kinds of tricks the way they have done it so far.
	Because the nuclear weapons program is very crucial.
	It's one of the main pillars of this regime because it's used as a guarantee for the survival of the regime.
	It's part and parcel of their policy of exporting terror.
	It's the other side of the coin of supporting all these proxies in the region.
	And they spend a lot of resources over the years.
	At least $2 trillion of money and cost has been used so far by the regime to get the nuclear weapons program to this place.
	And that's a lot of money when it comes to the country of Iran.
	You know, the whole eight years of Iran-Iraq war cost the regime $1 trillion.
	And now the nuclear program itself.
	About $2 trillion.
	So there's a lot at stake.
	So what the regime wants to do is that they want to maintain the program, but they want to offer that, okay, we're open to sit down and negotiate.
	They have always said that we don't have a nuclear weapons program.
	It's all about energy, and everybody knows that this is all nonsense.
	Every indication on the ground is that they have a very advanced program.
	Aim to build nuclear warheads.
	So what do you want to do?
	You want to avoid falling into the trap of the Iranian regime, because after all, it's not an endless situation in terms of timeline, because come October, most of the sanctions at the UN Security Council is going to expire.
	There is a sunset clause in that nuclear deal.
	And then the ability to snap back all the sanctions that now exist will expire as well.
	So you have, you know, within actually the next few weeks, to be more accurate, is the window to trigger the snapback mechanism at the UN and put back all the sanctions.
	On the Iran regime and make them pay for their violation.
	So the goal of Tehran is to say, okay, let's just play and let's sit down and see what we can do.
	This way they can drag it further.
	And I think Washington, the capitals around the world, has to be very, very careful not to fall into that trap.
	You know, I think the president has made it very clear that he wants all of the nuclear sites of the Iran regime shut down.
	This is what we've said.
	Since 2015 and many years ago.
	And that's the only issue that you can really sit down and talk about.
	You know, how those sites are going to be shut down and how the IAEA, the UN Nuclear Watchdog, can actually monitor the closing down of the sites.
	Not, you know, measuring the level of enrichment of the uranium or any other issues at all.
	None of that should be on the table.
	Well, they...
	Certainly have laid out very, very stringent conditions.
	In other words, in order to reach an agreement, they're going to have to forego the nuclear weapons and they're going to have to allow basically inspections at our discretion, not theirs, or the agreement will be immediately canceled.
	I'm just sitting here thinking, what's the chances they agree to it?
	And say to themselves, we snuck out of all these in the past, screwed them and lied to them, so why not agree to it and wait out Trump?
	Because next time we might get somebody who loves us like an Obama or a Biden.
	Well, based on the experience in the past and the role that the nuclear weapons program of the regime has played within the regime, The Iran regime has already said that they're not going to give up their nuclear weapons program unless they really feel that they're, you know, otherwise they're on the verge of collapse and overthrow.
	Because once they start backing down here, especially in light of what already happened in the region, they lost a lot of the proxies or allies in the region that used to be...
	About the weakest condition, you know, even back in 2019 and 2020, when the accumulated protests that you guys had a lot to do with had them on what we would call the balls of their backside, they still had those proxies.
	Well, they certainly had Hezbollah.
	They didn't have Hamas then, but they had Hezbollah, and they had the Houthis, and they had Assad in Syria.
	And they had, I think, even a little more of Iraq than they have today.
	Yes.
	So that's a lot of allies.
	And they already had help from China, help from Russia.
	So now Hamas can't help them.
	They can't help themselves.
	Hezbollah surprised me at how little a fight they put up.
	But they're not.
	They got to help Hezbollah.
	Hezbollah's not going to help them.
	Assad's gone.
	And they're fighting their own wars right now.
	Yes.
	So they're not going to help Iran.
	And the Houthis, at least about half of their effectiveness has been taken away from them by taking out their bases.
	And they're very far away.
	They're not the most convenient of allies.
	So they are somewhat on their own right now.
	I mean, this is the first time in a long time that Iran is on its own.
	And the next decision is, does Iran get attacked, right?
	That's the final decision that has to be made.
	But they don't make rational decisions, Ali Reza.
	You know, you can pretty much, you're going to get, even with the craziness with Zelensky and the craziness with Putin, we're probably going to end up with something rational in the end.
	Not great, but rational.
	But this guy is...
	Maybe he's insane.
	I don't know.
	He acts like he's insane.
	Well, you know, the mullahs in Iran unfortunately have benefited from a lot of the concessions over the past few years because we could have gotten the mullahs to this point a lot earlier if they didn't benefit from the concessions that was made from the outside world.
	Of course, Supreme Leader Khamenei is just looking at things very, very carefully.
	He has a lot of experience.
	He's always calculating, you know, how to keep the regime in power.
	But the reality shows that he's pretty much run out of options.
	You know, he relied heavily on those proxies, which he described as strategic depth to the regime.
	They're all, as you correctly described, all gone.
	The population in Iran, he relied heavily on the suppression of people trying to put them down, and yet he has faced a lot of these uprisings over the years, and he's so concerned when the next round of uprisings are going to come, which they will definitely, he may not survive.
	That's why he is already not waiting for the starting executions and creating this atmosphere of fear among the...
	The economy, for instance, which has played a big role in those uprisings, has gone down.
	Nothing works.
	Everything is just further deteriorating.
	Since the time Pezeshkan came into office, that was just this past August, until now, the value of the currency has depreciated very significantly.
	When he took office, for $1, you had to pay $58,000 two months.
	And now you have to pay, I think as of today, it's about $96,000.
	Very close to almost double or losing half of the value.
	This is disaster.
	And that's why I think this is a huge opportunity for the outside world.
	Now, the opportunity is this.
	here is an explosive situation in the country, in Iran.
	You have an organized force on the ground who have been fighting the regime over the years, but this is the very same organization, same force that exposed all the major nuclear sites of Iran.
	They have those resistance units on the ground who are confronting the Revolutionary Guards, and the regime is its weakest point in the region.
	This is the time to...
	I really think, I don't know how long it's going to last, But they're on the ropes now.
	They haven't had anything go their way in quite some time.
	They've got Russia really tied up in Ukraine.
	They're trying to get the last bit of territory back, Kursk, so they're not going to be able to help them very much.
	Russia needs China to help them.
	China maybe can give them some help, but I never thought China really trusted them.
	China got in with them at the very end.
	They're there only because of their hatred for us.
	And I think, you know, the minute China can, China will jettison them as an irresponsible player.
	So they're on their own.
	And on their own, look, they couldn't win the war with Iraq.
	I mean, even Israel, they go up against Israel with what Israel did to Hezbollah.
	I don't see it.
	And I see this as I told you.
	I analogize it to a price fight.
	You got the guy on the ropes, you don't sit down for a ceasefire.
	Yes.
	So let's hope.
	Well, Mayor, you had a very important point during the rally.
	By the way, you made very key points at the rally in Washington when thousands of Iranian-Americans had come from all over the United States.
	Yeah, it was really inspiring.
	And then marched after that to the White House.
	And you made a very important point.
	You started by saying that no issues in the world will be resolved, including peace in the Middle East, so long as the Mullahs are in power.
	And you showed the connection between the regime and all of the chaos.
	They'll undermine that.
	They'll also try to undermine any arrangement we make with China, particularly.
	Exactly, with all of that.
	And then you talk to the audience saying that, well, you know, this movement that has a history of fighting against the regime, you know, you don't need anything else, really.
	You don't need boots on the ground.
	You don't need appropriation of money.
	You can rely on yourself and you can bring down this regime.
	All the United States really need to do is recognize this very fact.
	That this is the movement for change.
	And that recognizing the right of the people of Iran to overthrow the regime.
	And you also mentioned, you know, I heard you talking, doing interviews with the media, talking about the choice for the future.
	Iran has only one way to go forward when it comes to people of Iran, and that's for...
	Freedom, where the vote of people counts.
	And you rejected any form of dictatorship.
	You said, you know, which country in the world that, you know, you overthrow a dictatorship only to replace it with another form like a, you know, monarchic dictatorship and others.
	So the choice is clear.
	The platform is there.
	And you saw the enthusiasm of the people who were cheering when you were speaking.
	But I want to emphasize here, Bayer, I'm sure your audience know you very well over the years, but the one aspect that I think we can never emphasize is the role you've played over the years.
	Thank you.
	And not only just highlighting the problem of the regime, which many people may do, but you have shown the solution.
	You always emphasize on the solution, how to end the threat of the Iranian regime.
	Yeah, we have to.
	Exactly.
	And that's the key point that you've always mentioned.
	And I want to commend you for that.
	Well, thank you.
	And I urge everyone to go on the internet, go on social media platforms, watch Mayor Giuliani when he addressed the crowd in Washington.
	It was a combination of enthusiasm, hope, forward-looking, but specific plans that you outlined.
	And I hope that is picked up in Washington and also in Europe.
	Well, I hope so, too.
	We're going to play a little of it, but I want to make one point that I thought of today, watching what was going on in New York with the protests in favor of the guy that supports Hamas that the President and Secretary of State want to throw out of the country.
	These people are protesting, first of all, in favor of a murderous terrorist group called Hamas.
	You're protesting for freedom.
	We're beating up cops, destroying property, burning things.
	Your parade, which we watched a lot of, and then we watched it together when they passed the Willard Hotel, you remember?
	Were you there with me when they passed the Willard Hotel and we could see them all going past?
	Well, you saw our rally.
	It was our rally.
	The way the rally took place is you had the rally at the Capitol.
	Then after the rally, a lot of the people marched from the Capitol, kind of like where the inaugural parade would be, to the White House.
	Now, that was a beautiful march.
	Absolutely.
	Beautiful in the sense of clean, no fires, no violence.
	The police were almost marching with them.
	The police were congratulating them.
	Look like once they were finished, the streets were totally clean.
	Meanwhile, we got three in New York today.
	I'm in Florida.
	There are three in New York.
	There'll be one in Chicago and one in...
	And they'll burn things down.
	They'll beat the hell out of the police.
	I mean, all you see is they have to rip them off.
	So the point that I'm trying to make is you're a hell of a responsible group.
	I mean, you put 100,000 people together in Paris and nothing happens except sometimes they try to come and kill you.
	And you're ready and have thought it out.
	You're ready to guide the country.
	What just happened in Syria is we can't tell if we improved in Syria or not right now.
	We got rid of Saddam, not Saddam, Assad.
	I think we improved just on the mere fact that we ripped something away from Iraq.
	But in terms of the type of terrorist, we got terrorists running it now.
	So instead of one group getting killed, now the Alawites and the Christians are getting killed.
	And they were going to kill the Kurds, but the Kurds made a deal with them.
	Now, I think we had to do it, but we went from...
	Sometimes we go from bad to worse.
	I think we went from very bad to bad in Syria.
	Here we have an opportunity to go from bad to good.
	Here we have an opportunity to actually do it the right way and have a predetermined process.
	For getting to a democracy that will join Israel and a couple of other countries in the Middle East as the only democracies there.
	And the more we get, I mean, I am convinced without the Ayatollah and the reign of terror around, and with a reasonable government in Iran, you're going to get the Palestinian issue solved in a year or less.
	It'll calm everybody down.
	It'll calm Israel down?
	Israel's not as worried about the Palestinians as they are that Iran will nuke them.
	Every Israeli worries about, gee, the guy sounds like a crazy man.
	He seems to be insanely focused on eliminating Israel.
	Who wants to live under that?
	Thank you very much for your efforts.
	Thank you so much, Mayor.
	You've always said ahead of the sake of war and terror lies in Tehran, and I think everywhere you look at it, we make sure that all the countries in the region end up in the right side.
	A free, democratic republic, Iran, is actually the prerequisite.
	Just imagine, Mayor, if we have an Iran...
	That respects the vote of its people, is non-belligerent, ends the nuclear program, ends terrorism, instead, you know, is promoting democracy.
	What a difference it will make in the whole world, not just in the region.
	That would change the whole equation.
	And that's why what we're doing, what you're doing, what members of Congress are doing is not just, you know, changing the situation in Iran.
	It's actually changing the whole...
	Equation in the region and globally.
	And we are very close to that.
	Well, thank you.
	Ted, you want to show us a little of the, as we go to break?
	Yes.
	Thank you, Ali Reza.
	And thank you for all the help this weekend.
	You were terrific.
	Thank you so much.
	You know, you know, here, here in the West, in America.
	Where you have a lot of sick people who are your enemies and favor the Ayatollah like Obama did and like Biden did.
	There are a lot of people like that.
	They have no idea how strong you are.
	You're not a strong group.
	You're just a fringe group.
	You're a cult.
	Listen to the words of the Ayatollah.
	Two years ago, Ayatollah said maybe it was a slip.
	Ayatollah said the one group that I really fear because they have the resources to do it and the organizational ability is the M.E.K. If you were so weak, if you were so weak...
	Why are you the most targeted for execution and murder in Iran?
	Because they are afraid of you.
	Because they know what you did to them in 17 and 18 and 19. They know how you can ignite an entire nation.
	And all you need from us is our support.
	You don't need soldiers.
	You need support.
	Well, support and their support in the sense of moral support.
	The kind of support that Ronald Reagan gave to, like Valesa, and the Pope, and Margaret Thatcher, when they began their movement to liberate Poland.
	To liberate Poland from the Soviet Union.
	And the end result was, it worked.
	I know the situation probably better than I do most, because I've been involved with it, as Ali Reyes said, for a long time.
	These people are quite capable of, with the right push, you know, the right destabilization of the regime, they're quite capable of reorganizing that country.
	Well, they've accomplished a lot of things, some of which I probably can't tell you, but the ones that I can that are public are, I mean, they're the ones who found and made sure that the nuclear scientists were interrupted, which put Iran back about 8 to 10 years and cost them billions and billions of dollars more.
	They're the ones who identify the locations of where these bomb silos are.
	They're the ones who organized 280 demonstrations in two years in every single city, with people having the courage to carry signs saying, down with the Ayatollah, which is a shooting offense there.
	And they have the courage of remaining with the MEK, which is also shoot on sight or give them a trial like the Biden lawfare trials.
	The reality is...
	They get a lot of pushback because Iran, probably next to China, has probably one of the best intelligence infiltration operations where they can turn news in their direction.
	China's the best at it.
	And, of course, they focus their hatred on the MEK. They go around saying the MEK is a cult.
	It is not.
	They go around saying the MEK is ineffective.
	Then Ayatollah.
	Slips and says things like, they're the only ones who can really overthrow us.
	You better kill them when you see them.
	I mean, as we're speaking, they're probably killing some of them right now.
	And they know they're the only ones that can organize these protests.
	And I'm not going to tell you how they do it, but this has been going on for about 25 years and Iran can't figure out how to stop it.
	After it's over, I'll tell you how.
	So, it's there.
	The opportunity is there.
	It'd be a big jump toward liberating the world.
	It would give us another ally.
	A very appreciative ally.
	Now, we're starting to gather them now.
	You know, if we had eight or ten really appreciative allies, then the crybabies in Western Europe.
	Who don't produce very much and don't contribute very much.
	And sometimes when they go to fight, their armies are told not to fight.
	But we had 10 allies, like, let's say, 8 more Israels.
	But China's not going to stop us.
	And Russia.
	You can see that living under communism or whatever the hell you want to call Russia, they just don't have the morale that a free army has.
	I mean, Russia doesn't want to fight and Ukraine doesn't want to fight.
	It is a tragedy that people are getting killed.
	Did we show the videos of the people getting killed in Ukraine and Russia?
	None of that had to happen.
	If that little moron didn't walk out of the White House, that peace thing would have been signed a week ago.
	Russia would not have resumed its attacks on Kurs to try to grab a little bit back.
	I'm counting on the fact that Putin doesn't want to look like the spoiler here.
	I mean, not that he would do it because he's a good guy, but he is a very, very shrewd guy who knows how to play with the mirrors.
	And if they go into a ceasefire, they should be able to settle this.
	I think without any doubt, Zelensky will give Kursk back.
	I don't know.
	Russia will give something back.
	I don't know if they'll give back a portion of what is the most valuable.
	If they did, then you'd end up with a good agreement on both sides.
	And, I mean, Trump is just so far ahead of Zelensky.
	Trump was angling for that.
	Their chance of getting more mineral land goes up by 100 to 1 if they're doing it with the United States.
	And Russia can get credit with the United States for doing that.
	Doesn't the little moron who is the product of crooked oligarchs realize that?
	Or is there some deal that this is going to get in the way of?
	Look.
	Great people.
	People who have gone through something they never should have gone through.
	Maybe...
	Of course, they didn't know.
	Their government supported Biden.
	Their government supported Hillary Clinton.
	They did the collusion that was falsely attributed to Russian collusion.
	That's how I got involved in it.
	I got a call saying they're doing in Ukraine what they're falsely claiming is going on in Russia, and it turned to be 100% true.
	So let's see if this can end it.
	We got a real loser elected in Canada.
	He wants to take on Trump and he's flexing his silly little banker's muscles.
	And he's going to stand up to Trump.
	He's not going to give in.
	Does he realize that compared to the United States, they're a little pipsqueak with a very, very weak economy?
	Does he realize that for every dollar they cost us, with the same tariffs in place, we would cost them $100, and that their economy is in 10 times worse shape than ours and can't sustain this?
	And the idea of being able to get what we get from Canada somewhere else, possibly at a slightly higher price but a more reliable service, is not impossible.
	The possibility that they can get from us what they get from us and anything close to the price that we give them is zero.
	Maybe they can fulfill 25%.
	I'm saying that there's a difference between being a superpower and being a country that, unfortunately, at this stage, given the committed communists they had running them and this guy here, who is a committed globalist, they are in terrible shape.
	Katter has been in much better shape than this.
	And something other than this silly, elitist, woke government could get him there.
	But not this group of World Economic Forum nitwits.
	Now, he, yeah, I mean, this guy has got to be out of his mind.
	The world is moving against this.
	The world is moving against globalism.
	They're moving against elitism.
	I don't know how you think you're going to relate to people by saying you're a political leader who's an elitist.
	So I know we're dealing with a jackass.
	He may have run two banks, one in England and one in Canada.
	But look at the condition of England and Canada.
	He sure as hell couldn't have done a good job of running the national banks, and either one, both of them, suck right now.
	So let's listen to this.
	I'm a banker, and let's listen to what an absolutely stupid politician he is.
	I can deliver for the country.
	My weakness is, you know, people will charge me as being elitist or, you know, a globalist, to use that term, which is, well, that's exactly, you know, it happens to be exactly what we need.
	My weakness is a politician.
	I'm connected.
	He's connected.
	Sounds like he's a guy in the mafia.
	He's connected.
	When does a democracy ever need an elitist?
	I thought it was a democracy.
	Uh-uh.
	Not on the Trudeau.
	Trudeau ran it as an autocratic government.
	Probably getting that from...
	You know the allegation is that Trudeau is Castro's bastard.
	He sure ran it like he was a communist.
	And this guy, I don't know what you call an elitist.
	What's an elitist?
	Some of us think they're better than everybody else.
	Does he understand language?
	I mean, this guy ran two banks.
	Don't get all impressed.
	I know people who run banks.
	Some are good.
	A lot aren't.
	And when you look at the kind of bank he ran, which was a national bank, and you look at the condition of the economy of these two countries, maybe he can find another one to screw up.
	But that statement is an absolutely idiotic statement to say when you're taking over as the prime minister of a democracy.
	This is exactly what we need as an elitist.
	We need a guy right now running Canada who believes he's better than everybody else.
	Can you believe he said that, Chad?
	He thinks it's a good thing to be an elitist.
	I mean, I don't think it's a good thing to be a globalist, but at least he could argue over that.
	Yeah.
	I think being a globalist, You either are a hidden Marxist or you're a tool of the hidden Marxist and you're too stupid to realize it.
	He's in the second category.
	Right.
	Because he wouldn't have said he was a globalist.
	Elitist or, you know, globalist, to use that term, which is, well, people will charge me as being elitist.
	People will charge me as being elitist or...
	You know, globalist, to use that term, which is, well, that's exactly, you know, it happens to be exactly what we need.
	We need somebody running Canada who believes he's better than everybody else.
	I just translated it for you.
	Hey, dope!
	But that would be an elitist, right?
	An elitist is somebody who believes he's better than anybody else.
	And doesn't know the term elitist, right?
	He's kind of demonstrating that he is an elitist by the words he's using right there, right?
	I have no idea if he really is or isn't an elitist.
	I can tell you he's a jackass.
	He's certainly not elite.
	But to tell people that you're an elitist when you've just taken over as the prime minister of a democracy, you've got to be stupid.
	He's bragging about being connected.
	Maybe he doesn't know what an elitist is, and he is one.
	Mayor, you ever brag about being connected?
	When you're mayor of New York, you ever go around telling people, oh, I know people.
	I know people who know about it.
	The only people I know who do this is the mafia.
	I know people who know people.
	I'm connected.
	That's literally what he said.
	Oh, yeah, that's a lot of people who say, I'm connected.
	He's connected.
	You know who he's connected to?
	Krause Schwab.
	He was a big guy at the World Economic Forum.
	Man, they've done wonders for the world.
	Look at all the countries that they advise.
	They're all starving.
	They're all falling apart.
	They don't have a currency anymore.
	Oh, this European Union was a great idea.
	It took Germany from the most productive country in Europe and one of the most productive in the world to middle.
	And they're going down.
	They got another guy who's just like him.
	He's just smart enough to not say that he's an elitist, but he acts like one.
	And he wants to make a deal with the communists.
	Well, how about another short break?
	And we'll be right back.
	Here we are, pretty much at the beginning of the process here at this pristine...
	I call it a laboratory.
	It's not like a factory.
	It's like a hospital.
	This is the beginning of the process for roasting.
	Deep grain, very good quality.
	Most people don't use this quality.
	We deal with small farmers because we like to know who we're dealing with.
	They give us the highest quality, all organic, non-GMO. You should know, all Arabica beans.
	No robusto.
	All Arabica.
	they're gonna go into the roaster and it'll get roasted for about 20 minutes or so oh my goodness look at these My goodness!
	You're gonna want to specially order these!
	This is what goes into Rudy's coffee.
	This is Rudy Giuliani back with you on America's Mayor Live.
	So let me catch you up on the things that, if you look at the board there, I don't know, I bet you don't know what those are.
	That is the elite, high technology, Artificial intelligence created new way that the Russians are transporting into Ukraine.
	They're using horses and jackasses.
	The horses they had, the jackasses came from the Democrat Party.
	They sent them over.
	Schumer probably sent over the most.
	Isn't the jackass the symbol of the...
	You know, jackasses are really actually very nice animals, but poor things.
	I would like to liberate them from the Democrat Party.
	But, you know, a lot of people think that the reason for this is that Russia is running out of tanks and trucks.
	I cannot believe...
	So I don't believe that they...
	I don't believe that a million Russian, 900,000 Russian troops were killed in Ukraine.
	I think they only sent 700,000.
	Who are the other 200,000 that got killed?
	It would mean every troop that went to Russia was killed plus 200,000 more.
	Now, on the Ukrainian side, they say the number is somewhere between 60,000 and 90,000.
	That would mean that basically they kill Russians 10 to 1. Now, they also lost another 200 and something thousand people with civilians.
	But remember, they were invaded.
	Their country was invaded.
	So you are going to lose civilians.
	Who can you trust?
	I don't know.
	During a war, right?
	All these numbers from either side.
	The Russians probably give you a number like three.
	Let's face it.
	We got different levels of dishonest.
	Putin is a monster.
	And they're just thoroughly dishonest, not being monsters.
	But the idea that we got a really reliable ally there is ridiculous.
	You hear these senators and congressmen get up and say, Ukraine is a great ally of the United States!
	What?
	No, they're not.
	They've never done anything for the United States.
	Maybe they're never in a position to do it.
	I'm not saying they wouldn't.
	We'd have to see.
	But this isn't a country like Israel.
	To the extent that they helped us in the Second World War, they started with Nazi Germany.
	I was going to say.
	They were on the German side.
	Russia was on our side.
	And they did it as part of Russia.
	And they were thought to be a little too cozy with the Nazis.
	Well, and speaking of the Nazis, so Goebbels in the bombing of Dresden, I think, claimed 400,000 lives lost when the number was, I think, closer to 40. So, I mean, wartime brings out some number, you know, inflation here.
	So probably what we should do is take the median between what the Russians say, which is two, and the...
	It is somewhere between two and one million.
	Yeah, it's somewhere between two and a million, yeah.
	But it is absurd, right?
	But I'm pretty sure I may be wrong about this.
	We're laughing at the absurdity of it all.
	I'm pretty sure the other day I'm reading this and I keep looking at it.
	They've so far sent 700,000 troops to it.
	700,000 troops, 700,000 troops.
	Not including the 20,000 North Koreans.
	I think they all killed themselves.
	Accidentally.
	They killed the Russians.
	I think that...
	Biggest kill rate may be the North Koreans killing the Russians thinking they were Ukrainians.
	Well, you said they're all very similar people.
	So J.P. Morgan has admitted debanking conservatives.
	They were sued.
	They were sued by our friend that was at the rally with us, Sam Brownback.
	You met Sam on Saturday, right?
	I did.
	Former governor, senator of Kansas, former ambassador under Trump.
	And now he runs the National Committee for Religious Freedom.
	And as part of the National Committee for Religious Freedom, they would fight for religious freedom all over the place, including in communist countries, particularly like China that Chase Bank loves.
	And Chase Bank took their bank account away, gave them four different contradictory reasons.
	They also had a long history of others, Donald Trump Jr., Lieutenant...
	Michael Flynn Jr. I've had trouble with my businesses with banking when we were making a fortune.
	The banks do this.
	Saturday Night Live made fun of it, but Saturday Night Live hasn't been right in 20, 30 years.
	But now you know they did because Chase Bank not only settled with them, set up accounts for them and others.
	But it's agreed to include language in its corporate code of conduct to protect customers against future incident political and religious debanking, the first major U.S. bank to make such a change.
	And Sam and the National Committee are going to run through all the banks and get that done, and that will help you as conservatives because, my goodness, if they find out you're a conservative, forget it.
	I mean, I've had advertisers that got calls.
	From banks, saying if you keep advertising with Giuliani, we'll take your bank account away.
	I mean, I just got used to it.
	And how about, I can't tell you how many lawyers turned me down, not just for me, but for the president, for other people that needed lawyers, where I was trying to get them lawyers.
	You know, we had a situation in Georgia and Arizona.
	It was impossible.
	We had a guy.
	Who had to spend two nights in jail because he couldn't get a lawyer, and the judge in Georgia was too lazy to come off his vacation.
	A man's liberty didn't mean anything.
	This guy doesn't work very hard anyway.
	Imagine the judge in that case in Georgia worked for Fannie the Ho, and that's okay.
	So what about Bernie Sanders?
	Now, I have told you for the longest time, but I don't emphasize it enough, and I should.
	The beginning of all this was the removing God from America.
	This is where it all began.
	Second was infiltration of the schools.
	And if you look at that, those are the two Marxist priorities.
	Get God out.
	Get the parents out.
	Because both of them...
	No better not to have an atheistic communist or socialist state.
	They both know that socialism is violence necessarily that will happen because it's an economic and social and political system that runs against the grain of the human personality, which is to be productive and to benefit from your productivity.
	And if you are productive, to not feel like you're being taken advantage of and being made a sucker because other people are working hard and you're very conscientious, but other people are taking advantage of you.
	And then you have priorities.
	You have families and you say to yourself, I don't want to take bread out of the mouth of my family to take care of all the communist bums that don't work.
	Or socialist bums who don't work.
	So Marx realized he had to remove both of those things.
	Marx had a separate problem with God, though.
	And it's very intricate and very psychological.
	Marx had a satanic problem with God, a Lucifer problem with God.
	And he writes about it.
	And he's a fan of Lucifer.
	Because Lucifer believed that he was smarter than God, that God arrogantly asserted he was the smartest mind, and that he, Marx, was smarter.
	I'm serious.
	He went through a whole satanic period where he worshipped Satan, because Satan had done what he wanted to do, which is for human beings to say we're smarter than God, and God is used to...
	God is used to subjugate us to the bourgeoisie and to the oppressors.
	Now they call it oppressors and oppressed.
	Used to be bourgeoisie and proletariat.
	They used bigger words because they were smarter, I guess.
	So now we see in Bernie...
	Who is a lifelong communist.
	Once again, I am willing to assert that you don't go to Russia or Cuba on your honeymoon unless you're a communist.
	Sorry.
	And you don't go there 30 times unless you're a communist like Tampon Tim.
	But the other night, he had a rally.
	And you know how they would try to play around with the numbers at Trump's rally?
	The old bastard at $3,500 there.
	Geez, I could get $10,000.
	Right?
	The president would get $30,000.
	But he has a transgender...
	I don't know the right pronoun here.
	A transgender.
	Oh, I guess transgender, now claiming to be a woman.
	Laura Jane Grace.
	Originally Thomas James Gable.
	Who is a singer.
	Again, don't ask me about this.
	I have no idea who this person is.
	But during the performance, sort of as the lead act for the pathetic old bastard from Vermont, she sang a song called Your God, also subtitled God's...
	D, two letters K. Your God or God's D, two letters K. She sings, does your God have a big fat D, two letters K? Because it feels that he's F-king me.
	When he whips out his meat, does your world fall to its knees?
	Does he chew C, two letters T, like bubblegum, and give BW jobs like a vacuum?
	This is the Democratic Party.
	And as an observer, Robbie Starbuck, who is a good friend of ours, right, who we should have on the show on this, says, isn't it true that the Democrat Party has now become pure evil?
	It was when it supported slavery, so they're just returning to their roots.
	Another nervous headache.
	Little Bernie has gone full Satan right before her eyes.
	What kind of singer even writes this on paper, let alone sings it in front of an audience?
	The thing that you're looking at, who's 44, has been performing since 1997 with her band, and she was known then as Thomas James Gable.
	Now, she previously performed for him in 2020, and during that, she sang a song that God is good, God is great, now get the F out of the USA. Her song was Hanging Tree.
	And there were many, many other things, many other things which were direct frontal attacks on God and Christianity, supported by Senator Sanders.
	Now tell me he's not a communist with this hatred of God.
	So shall we listen to her or not?
	Yeah, let's listen to her.
	Her.
	It.
	Him.
	Whatever.
	What?
	What happened?
	She's an awful singer.
	No, I'll tell you what.
	I'll tell you the one good thing.
	I don't understand a damn thing she said.
	Yeah.
	Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah.
	Do you know one of the things that's the most important for any quality singer?
	Even if their voice isn't that good, pronunciation of words.
	Frank Sinatra and Luciano Pavarotti shared in common the ability to pronounce words perfectly.
	I went to a...
	When we were in Italy, we met with a tenor who...
	He's a crazy guy.
	Remember?
	He's a real crazy guy.
	But what a voice.
	What a voice.
	And every word in Italian, perfect, perfect, perfect.
	I can understand Italian, kind of.
	But when they start, like when Eleonora speaks Roman dialect Italian, she speaks beautiful Italian.
	Rolling the R's.
	But I can't understand how she talks so fast.
	For me to get the Italian, you've got to slow it down for me.
	And then I can get most of it.
	And that's why I love Pavarotti.
	And Bocelli has this too.
	They have the ability to pronounce every word.
	Bocelli, who doesn't speak to you in English when you talk to him, is uncomfortable speaking in English.
	He's not uncomfortable singing in English.
	And I'm telling you, you can understand what he's saying in English because he works so hard at pronouncing every word properly.
	I mean, singing is an art form.
	Not a disgusting thing, you know, that belongs in a whorehouse.
	Doesn't belong in a dignified place with the United States Senate unless the senator belongs in a whorehouse.
	Little Bernie.
	What a disgrace.
	And people who say, oh, we really admire Bernie.
	Bernie?
	Bernie let himself get effed in the you-know-what in 2016. He let Hillary cheat him and never said it worked.
	He's not a man.
	You think Bernie's a man?
	I don't.
	I'm not talking about gender and stuff like that.
	I'm talking about principles and character and courage.
	He just caved in to Hillary's cheating.
	What a piece of crap.
	Useless.
	And crazy ideas.
	And who knows where they came from or why he wants to undercut this country.
	Maybe because he's such a stupid-looking little bastard.
	What a horrible thing to do.
	I mean, they're filled with him.
	Cuomo is running for governor of New York, the mayor of New York.
	He's going to reform everything that's wrong with it.
	And he's the reason for almost everything that's wrong with it.
	The crime problem in New York, you could solely pin it right on the reforms that he did in 2018. He did bail reform.
	There are, take it from me, nobody knows more about reducing crime in New York than me.
	No one's ever done it the way I've done it.
	No one's ever come close to doing it.
	There are 9,000 criminals walking the streets of New York who would not be walking the streets of New York if Cuomo hadn't passed the bail bill.
	And most of them are predatory criminals.
	Career criminals who are doing anything from larceny to rape and murder.
	Adams and even Hochul have tried to change it.
	They can't.
	So you would think now that he's running for mayor, and this could be the biggest problem in New York, he'd say, gee, I made a mistake there.
	I'm going to try to reverse it.
	No.
	Because he's an arrogant pathological narcissist, he said, I did the right thing.
	I saved all those people.
	He did.
	He saved them all so they could kill all those people.
	So probably one of the biggest reasons for all the black people that have died of murder since 2018 is his bail law, letting them out.
	Letting people who move up from massive assault to murder.
	You know how many of those we've had?
	Out on bail?
	You get one every day.
	Every decent person in New York is disgusted with it.
	But here's what happens in New York.
	The Democrats are going to vote for him.
	Most of them agree with what I'm saying.
	But they'll vote for him anyway.
	There's a Jewish word called Meshuggah.
	That's Meshuggah.
	But serious form of Meshuggah.
	Because it hurts other people.
	But it's not enough that he just did bail reform.
	He also did...
	He also did reduce the age at which you can be tried as an adult to something ridiculous.
	I don't know what it is.
	But right now there's a case in Newark where a 14-year-old killed a police officer in cold blood.
	He's not going to be tried as an adult.
	He's going to be tried in private.
	It's not even considered a crime.
	He'll get something less than 20 years in prison.
	He'll be out, you know.
	Long enough to have a full active life of killing people.
	Oh, and just in case, Cuomo also passed parole reform because people weren't getting on parole enough.
	Since then, 42 cop killers have been paroled, thanks to Andrew Cuomo.
	So any cop votes for him, you're playing with your life.
	This guy is a different kind of dangerous.
	You know, communist.
	There's something seriously wrong with him.
	I wish my friend and occasional enemy, Ed Koch, were alive and could speak on this.
	A lot of people in the Democrat Party know it.
	But once again, the Democrat Party has become a party of unbelievable, unbelievable cowards.
	Even Fetterman, who occasionally surprises you.
	He voted for men to beat the shit out of women in women's sports.
	He voted for more situations where a girl like the one who was at the State of the Union speech can get paralyzed because a male is playing in a sport.
	Here's a here's a poetic justice.
	A couple of years ago, around Christmas time, it was leaked into the State of the Union message.
	The nitwit traitor who occupied the White House for four years announced that he was going to put a brake on immigration.
	He's going to set up a program where people could go on an app.
	And then they could be waived into the United States seeking asylum.
	And he said it would only be a thousand a day or something like that or two thousand or three thousand or something ridiculous like that.
	The minute he said it, I said, don't believe him.
	This is so he can let communists in.
	So he can let the people in that really have to get in with the deals that he's made over the world that they don't want to risk.
	Well, I don't know.
	Let's see how many came in that way.
	Let's see.
	Let's see.
	This is called the CBP1 phone app.
	It was a voluntary system that if you did it, you were allowed in the country and you were presumed to be an asylee, which meant you were going to get a hearing five years from now.
	So this got you five years in the United States and the opportunity to disappear.
	So you could kill a lot of people.
	And the thought is that this is the way in which he paid China back.
	Kristi Noem and the president have now kept those computers.
	And they're using it for self-deportation.
	They're using it for self-deportation.
	Do you know that last month was the lowest Level of illegal crossings in recorded history?
	Lowest ever.
	It says it right here.
	As a result, border agents saw the lowest levels of illegal crossing in recorded history last month, when roughly 8,000 migrants were caught entering illegally.
	Now, think about this.
	Are there more important things he lied about?
	Well, equally important.
	Biden, for years, would say, I can't do this because Congress won't pass the laws.
	And the press just wrote it.
	They haven't passed any laws.
	What did Trump do?
	Wave a magic wand?
	Biden did not enforce the laws, which led to approximately 70,000 fentanyl deaths a year.
	How does he live with it?
	And how do the people that covered it up live with it?
	I mean, I always assumed people had some level of conscience, but something with power and money at the highest levels of government can either bring, when you're at that level of power, can either bring out the most noble performances possible, or it can bring out the people who are evil and scummy and inadequate.
	Amoral, immoral, and perverted.
	Like the Black Lives Matter thing that was put down during the to honor George Floyd who died of a drug overdose.
	I'm sorry.
	That's what he died of.
	The cop didn't kill him.
	He's going to spend the rest of his damn life in jail.
	Hopefully, wasn't he convicted under state law?
	The president can't pardon him, I don't think.
	Would you check that?
	I mean, of course, Tampon Tim would never, unless he promises to do spying for China, Tampon Tim would never pardon him.
	So they are cleaning up the Black Lives Matter square, where people go and repeat, Pigs in a blanket, fry them like bacon.
	Let me see how many cops I can kill this week.
	Because they say it at every turn, correct?
	Yes, they say it at every turn.
	They're cop killers.
	And they're crooks.
	And now it's been renamed Liberty Park.
	And one of the people writing, one of the Democrats writing, say, the only people celebrating this, manly, you know, the Black Lives Matter plaza in D.C. are racist, fragile white people.
	No, they're not.
	They're people who believe in law, order, dignity.
	People who believe you shouldn't kill police officers.
	And people that believe you shouldn't blame other people for your own problems.
	And you should be man enough or woman enough to take responsibility for your life and your children.
	You're not worth much as a human being.
	The officer slain in New Jersey that we talked about, slain by a 14-year-old who may end up suffering almost nothing, Detective Joseph slain by a 14-year-old who may end up suffering almost nothing, Detective Joseph Azkona, who was shot in the by a 14-year-old.
	They don't give you his name because we're protecting the 14-year-old so that one day he can get out of jail, he won't have a record, he can kill another cop.
	I don't know why we think it's necessary for us to protect people like this, and why we think it helps with theirs, Joseph.
	I wanted you to see him again.
	I wanted you to pray for him and his family and for the other police officers.
	And his funeral will be on Friday, and we will do the best we can to cover it.
	Because this is a person we should honor, not the kind of creeps that's seeing at Bernie the Communist rallies.
	Newsom, it turns out, in a new book that was written, Newsom had a choice of bailing out the water companies or going after the oil and gas companies.
	So he ignored the water companies that needed to be revised and helped, and he decided to be a hero to the greenies and the climate change and go after the oil and gas thing.
	And it sounds like there was some kind of a skullduggery involved in this, and that's in a new book by Susan Crabtree and Jed McFadder called Fool's Gold.
	Basically says that Gavin Newsom isn't a human being.
	There's nothing there of substance.
	Just a lot of hair.
	And I'm not jealous.
	I'm perfectly happy with it.
	Well, we're going to end with a puzzle.
	And the puzzle is...
	The Supreme Court has decided to take a case in which, I think it's Colorado, Colorado, and is it Texas?
	I'm not sure what the other state involved in.
	But this is a case.
	This is a case in which it's a challenge to a Colorado law banning conversion therapy for minors who are struggling with sexual orientation or gender identity.
	Kelly Childs is a Christian and a licensed therapist, and he's arguing that Colorado is banned, that you can't discuss sexual orientation or gender with a psychologist.
	May take the viewpoint that you need therapy so that you can get over it, right?
	Violates the First Amendment.
	And it violates the First Amendment because he says it's merely us.
	It's merely talk therapy.
	And talk is protected by the First Amendment.
	And why?
	Why should the state be able to cut off your ability to seek guidance on something like this?
	Particularly for a child, but even for an adult.
	You can be convinced that you're heterosexual.
	You can be convinced that you're homosexual.
	That you really should be a different sex.
	But you also could be in doubt and confused about it.
	And if you're in doubt and confused about it, why can't you go see a psychiatrist or a psychologist who may not, you know, who may not abide by the one truth that the state has decided is the truth?
	And how can the state decide what the truth is here anyway?
	It's too damn complicated.
	Every individual is different.
	Of course, you might take the risk of going to one who's overly zealous on either side, right?
	We know situations where people are now complaining that they were basically conned and bulldozed into changing their sex and regret it.
	Well, that's a person who's an overzealous practitioner of gender change.
	Now, there may be overzealous people who want to prevent it.
	But that's the risk you take in a country with its free speech.
	This is a terrible thing to do.
	So the Supreme Court is going to have to decide it.
	They're also going to have to decide the enormously difficult question of conflict of laws, because there is a case, which they haven't decided to take yet, that's heading to them.
	I think it's New York and Texas.
	New York has a law similar to communist Colorado.
	Texas has a law similar to American jurisdictions.
	So, a doctor in New York prescribed an abortion pill, which is illegal in Texas, prescribed in New York.
	Now, I have to imagine the prescription was filled.
	I didn't get that fact yet.
	I have to imagine the prescription was filled outside of Texas, because in Texas it's illegal and you can't.
	Now Texas wants to prosecute the doctor who did it because they say the doctor violated the laws of Texas.
	New York says, no, no, he followed the laws in New York.
	And he was in New York.
	He never was in Texas, but his impact was in Texas.
	Suppose, strangely, right, New York had a law that murder was fine, which it could.
	Cuomo could actually accomplish that if he became mayor.
	He came pretty close with bail and parole.
	Murder, they'd have a protection law.
	You can't prosecute somebody from New York for murder.
	And somebody in New York offered a million dollars to a hitman in Texas to kill somebody.
	New York would say, no, no, you can't prosecute him because he never came to Texas.
	You can be prosecuted in places where you reach out.
	And the effect of what you're doing is to break the law of that state.
	You don't have to physically be there.
	Physically be there creates a problem in getting jurisdiction over you, not in charge you with a crime.
	So now Texas wants to extradite the guy from New York, where he's protected, to Texas, where he committed a crime.
	And, of course, Governor Hochul Pocul, who would...
	Who probably would have not been able to follow the first three sentences of this, much less where we are now.
	hunkapulka says over my dead body i have to tell you not the the the the first one the first case that i brought to you the one that says that the colorado law that bans conversation there conversion therapy for minors so long as the conversion therapy
	Therapy involves only talk and no medicines and no treatments.
	I don't see how that works with the First Amendment.
	The First Amendment requires you to allow speech you don't agree with.
	Sorry, the people who feel one way, but there are people who feel another way.
	And a person who's going through this.
	The person going through this difficulty may need that.
	And who's to assume that every psychiatrist is a crazy zealot like you are?
	It might just be a fair down-the-middle psychiatrist who says, let me figure out what the person really wants without prejudice against whether they should be homosexual or heterosexual.
	The second one on the choice of law is going to be much more difficult.
	It's a difficult question.
	And I've got to think more about what the answer to that is.
	Well, we've had a really good show.
	And we're going to be back tomorrow at 7 and then at 8. And gosh, we've got lots to cover.
	Very interesting to see what Russia's answer is.
	I could see it going either way based on his rationale.
	Does he want more time to take?
	I mean, I think we had him a week and a half or ten days ago.
	But when he got the more time, he decided, let me push a little more.
	And maybe, God willing, he gets a setback in Kursk.
	And he says, okay, okay.
	I tried it twice.
	Couldn't get Kursk.
	Or I tried a third time and killed more people.
	Now, I don't know that Putin's got much of a conscience.
	And the fact that he's killing people for nothing now is going to weigh on him.
	My guess is he doesn't.
	He passes himself off as a Christian, too.
	I don't know how that works.
	Well, in any event, pray for the people of Russia and Ukraine.
	And pray for the people of Israel, for sure.
	Our best friends.
	And God bless America.
	Thank you.
	It's our purpose to bring to bear the principle of common sense and rational discussion to the issues of our day.
	America was created at a time of great turmoil, tremendous disagreements, anger, hatred.
	It was a book written in 1776 that guided much of the discipline of thinking that brought to us the discovery of our freedoms, of our God-given freedoms.
	It was Thomas Paine's Common Sense, written in 1776, one of the first American bestsellers, in which Thomas Paine explained, By rational principles, the reason why these small colonies felt the necessity to separate from the Kingdom of Great Britain and the King of England.
	He explained their inherent desire for liberty, for freedom, freedom of religion, freedom of speech, the ability to select the people who govern them.
	And he explained it in ways that were understandable to all the people.
	Not just the elite.
	Because the desire for freedom is universal.
	The desire for freedom adheres in the human mind and it is part of the human soul.
	This is exactly the time we should consult our history.
	Look at what we've done in the past and see if we can't use it to help us now.
	We understand that our founders created the greatest country in the history of the world.
	The greatest democracy, the freest country.
	A country that has taken more people out of poverty than any country ever.
	All of us are so fortunate to be Americans.
	But a great deal of the reason for America's constant ability to self-improve is because we're able to reason.
	We're able to talk.
	We're able to analyze.
