Time	Text
	Hello, this is Rudy Giuliani, and this is America's Mayor Live, and I have with me my good friend John Tobacco, who is a financial expert to start with.
	This is the real reason we have him sit here.
	Maybe not.
	He also has a great show on Newsmax called Wise Guys, and it really is the true meaning of wise guys.
	Very intelligent, very funny, and very substantive.
	I mean, a combination of all those things is really, really hard.
	And we love having you on.
	And we were together today at the ringing of the bell by Chris Ruddy and Newsmax, which he knows quite a bit about.
	And of course, we were also there this morning, not knowing we were there on one of the worst days.
	Yeah. One of the worst days in the history of the market.
	And John had talked about it on my earlier show, but maybe you give us just a little summary So we can put in context how bad this was in terms of gross numbers.
	It was quite bad.
	The percentage was less because the market is so inflated.
	Yep. Right.
	So Rudy, first of all, thank you for having me.
	I love you.
	Thank you for having me on your show.
	And also I had a promise to go on your show.
	Which is a pleasure.
	Which is a pleasure.
	We'll have you anytime.
	But look, I've spent the last 30 years of my life following the markets.
	I've been, you know, as Ted and everyone knows, I've been on the Florida New York Stock Exchange hundreds of times.
	That's my home.
	You know, I gotta tell you one thing.
	Having gone there so much as mayor, right, like in the 90s, what is it, half?
	More than half.
	Yeah. I told him I thought it was about a third, and they haven't really given up space.
	So you see it.
	No, without a doubt.
	I mean, I remember I probably walked that place 30 times when I was mayor for all different reasons.
	Right. And so I know it.
	I know the little it hasn't changed much in terms of the physical structure, but the number of people.
	Yeah, it's technology.
	And you had to count that we had the Newsmax people there.
	Yeah. Which added to it.
	Well, they have that every day.
	But I would just say, look, technology eliminates people in one place and it brings people back in another place.
	But there's Still great people on the floor.
	Oh my gosh.
	Yeah, and all the people, my buddy Rob over at Farina and Company, my buddy Capo, my buddy Eddie Curran.
	These are guys, these are like regular heart and soul guys from Nassau County and Staten Island who've been on the floor for 30 years.
	When technology goes bad, We need humans.
	You know, you ran the OEM, the Office of Emergency Management.
	You need redundancy.
	And I remember when we, whenever I go there now, I think about 2001 and the Monday we came back with Grosso and we were holding our breath all day because Grosso, President Bush was pushing him to open it on Thursday.
	Right. I remember.
	And Grosso called me and asked me if I could talk to the president and explain.
	He could open it, but he wasn't sure he could close it.
	Right, he couldn't settle it.
	And he said, you know, maybe Friday, maybe, maybe, but why don't we just, why don't you give us the weekend so we can practice it a few times?
	And you want to know something?
	I was partners with Harvey Pitt.
	We had business together.
	Harvey was the SEC chairman at that time.
	know he was the lead partner of freed frank so one of the more brilliant guys out there um and he agreed with you yeah he got it open on monday right but he he knew we needed to take a couple days and settle things down now today rudy what newsmax did in this week um skyrocketing to a But now, coming back to Earth a little bit, $3 billion valuation.
	This is a company like the little engine that could.
	Eight or nine years ago, when I joined Newsmax, it was like a wing and a prayer.
	You know what I'm saying?
	Yeah, it was really a great online site.
	Always has been, right?
	Yeah, I'm saying it was, but they were trying.
	As a television station.
	Remember the movie, Rudy?
	Yeah, sure.
	Remember the movie, Rudy?
	Sure, sure, sure.
	Newsmax was Rudy.
	You know what I mean?
	Like nine years ago.
	But now Newsmax made the play.
	You know, I gotta tell you, I don't want to cry because, you know, I come across as like a tough, wise guy on TV, but I left Fox News because I didn't like what was going on there eight years ago, right?
	I just felt the sniff.
	And I joined Newsmax.
	I've been at Newsmax eight and a half years, right?
	And for me, The other day when they rang the bell and the stock started trading, I said, wow, we made it.
	You know what I mean?
	And for Chris Ruddy to be standing up there.
	And by the way, I want to say, a lot of other people might've said, you know, Rudy, we want you to come, but you know, maybe stand over there or stand over there.
	And when I saw you up there and Chris Ruddy had made sure that you were right next to him.
	I was thinking in my head, there's the insurrectionists, there's the election deniers, there are the threats to democracy.
	Oh, yeah.
	But you know what?
	Newsmax, if you ask me, stuck by you.
	You've been on Newsmax for quite some time when other places knock you off and all that.
	And today was like a Pierce the Resistance movement.
	Fox is still afraid of me.
	I'm saying today was like a Pierce de Resistance moment because if you were even questioning where your relationship with Chris Ruddy was, you know today he wanted you.
	He's on top of the financial world, overlooking the largest exchange in the world.
	Right. And he's got one man right here, right next to him.
	Rudy Giuliani.
	I had tears in my eyes and I was standing with Ted.
	I mean, Chris is one of those guys, you know that, you don't have to have any doubts about.
	Including the, uh, he's very close to the president.
	President, president kids around with him every once in a while when the president says it's bad coverage.
	Like it isn't like the biggest stock, if it isn't the biggest tax reduction in the history of the universe.
	Maybe one, two percent bigger.
	And one of Chris's reporters points it out.
	The president loves him.
	He is in the business.
	He knows what he's doing.
	He knows that Chris always gets to table on Sunday closest to the president at the golf course.
	And they kid around with each other.
	And when Chris brings somebody over to take a picture, which he doesn't do all the time, the president always says yes.
	Without question.
	Because he knows it's important and he knows he wouldn't...
	And you know what, for everyone out there...
	Everybody like that knows what Chris is like.
	I've had him on this show.
	A few times and he does.
	I mean, he's, yeah, he also, he also should be on himself.
	I mean, he really is driven.
	For those of you out there who don't realize it.
	Okay. Um, outlets like ours, um, we broadcast every single rally of Trump's every single press conference, including the one, right.
	And oddly enough, Rudy, I know you know this, but none of the other networks covered any of Trump's rallies.
	But for some reason, they were all covering the Butler rally.
	Well, yeah, and then they lied about it, too.
	A couple of them said he wasn't even shot.
	He wasn't even shot.
	Shrapnel. Yeah.
	I mean, if you know anything about bullets and ripped here, all he had to do is move No, I mean, look, you've probably seen it up close, but he has a piece of his ear missing.
	Yeah. So obviously he was shot.
	But, you know, I don't want to get off track because we're talking about all the great things happening with Newsmax.
	Well, I thought the point that you made about the rally or downward rally of the exchange today is that This is not just about tariffs.
	No. And in fact, you know, I don't know that much of what you know about the market, but I do know that when news is put out there three, four days in advance, even a couple of weeks in advance, the market, think of it as one person, is very intelligent.
	They discount it.
	Indeed. If they say this company is going to get sold, Well, all of a sudden you see that price.
	It isn't on the day that it gets sold.
	The time it's sold, there's almost no reaction.
	Today was about everything.
	Yeah. The old saying in Wall Street parlance is, buy the rumor, sell the news.
	So when you hear the rumor, oh, oh, there's tariffs coming, there's tariffs coming.
	That's when, that's, you know, a good news you buy when you hear the rumor.
	And then when the news actually comes out, sell!
	It's not going to be better than that.
	So I think people heard the rumors and they did what they had to do.
	And now it came to fruition and the market sold off, we ripped off the Band-Aid.
	And I really think like Trump left in 2019, in 2020, the market was like 33,000.
	Joe Biden's team artificially pumped it up to 40,000 and change.
	I really think Trump needs it to get back to where he left off.
	To where?
	About where?
	Like around $35,000, about 10% down from here I think would be capitulation, they call it, when everyone says, all right, screw it, I'm not hanging on anymore.
	10% down from where we are right now?
	Yeah. I think about $35,000, $36,000.
	Trump left the Dow was at like 33.
	I think, you know, there was some good economic things that happened.
	But I think 35 gives Trump that good foundation to go out and implement his policies and grow from here.
	And not have to worry about if it's tepid every few weeks.
	I remember when I was invited to the stock exchange by that great man, Mr.
	Grosso. Love him.
	Oh, man.
	The guy who really was a hero of September 11 that doesn't get the acknowledgement that he deserves.
	But in any event, this was before, and it's when the market was going to hit 10,000.
	And then one day, it almost got there, it didn't get there.
	Then another day, it got there, and before I could get all the ceremony, it went back down.
	And then finally it was 10,000.
	When I was mayor, the big thing was it got to 10,000.
	Right, now it's four times.
	I'd like it to be down.
	I've said it, Rudy.
	I'm not a financial advisor, but I've been around the markets for years.
	Sometimes you need just a full clean out.
	They call it capitulation, just like get it out, get all the stuff out of the system.
	You know, like the night before you go in for your colonoscopy, you got to drink all this stuff and clean everything out.
	That's what's happening right now.
	And Scott Besson said today, this patient has been sick For a while.
	And we need a colonic, basically, you know what I mean?
	So that's what's happening.
	And by the way, like, you know, most people in their 401k, the left is saying all the 401ks are down and all this other stuff.
	Most people, if they're smart, they're invested for the long term.
	They're invested for five and 10 year intervals.
	Don't pay attention to like, or tomorrow or this week.
	Pay attention to the forward That's right, So we're playing the video.
	There's Chris right in the middle, right there.
	And there's the floor.
	I have some special surprise pictures I'm going to show Dan.
	Uh-oh. Uh-oh.
	We're gonna get a surprise from Rudy?
	A Rudy surprise!
	Yeah. Everybody's ringing bells.
	Look at that.
	Rudy. There we are.
	There's the Newsmax team.
	Where's me and Ted?
	There's Father Riley.
	Chris's high school classmate.
	Rob Finnerty.
	Ted, where's me and you?
	I don't even see me and you in that clip.
	What the heck?
	Here's another one from my perspective.
	Enjoy the mix.
	Here's another one from my perspective.
	Well, okay.
	Now, I want you to go over here.
	Okay? I want you to go over there.
	That is 20 Wall Street.
	What you see right there?
	I worked there in 1966.
	Wow. At a law firm known as Nixon Mudge.
	Wow. Richard Nixon was the senior partner.
	Do you know who was my co-intern?
	Ed Cox.
	King. Congressman King.
	Peter King.
	Peter King.
	And we've been friends since then.
	20 Brilliant.
	Now this is, from my perspective, looking down.
	Wowee. You see that guy in the middle there?
	Right there.
	I see Ted, yeah.
	There he is.
	I'm right next to Ted.
	Oh, wow.
	My tongue is even hanging out.
	That's not the best picture, but I'll take it.
	The father is making you all look good.
	Don't worry.
	Father Riley is there.
	Wow. What a day.
	Wait, wait, wait, wait.
	You were very well behaved.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	We were.
	We were.
	See John?
	See John?
	Ted was taking a...
	Let's look at John.
	Quite the...
	John, you look very...
	John, are you serious?
	You look really concerned, John.
	That was the moment...
	That was the moment I told you I almost had tears in my eyes because I was...
	Look at it.
	You can see.
	I was really thinking about it.
	Wow. My boss, who I believed in, is up there ringing the bell on the New York Stock Exchange.
	And he's got the balls to stand up there With my friend, Rudy Giuliani, right next to him.
	I'm telling you, you could see that photo.
	I did have like tears in my eyes because I was so proud that my company was willing to stand up there on the world stage.
	That thing gets broadcast to the whole world, right?
	The opening valve, right?
	I'm saying.
	This is the, that one with, that's like one of the most watched pictures.
	Without a doubt.
	And Chris said, I, you know.
	There's Ted again, yelling and screaming.
	Chris said, I want Rudy next to me.
	I want people to know.
	Now John's looking a lot happier.
	Things must have gone right.
	John just wanted to make sure the big shots saw him.
	I saw when you were shooting this.
	That's my favorite.
	Look at Ted pointing.
	But Ted was smitten by the girl in the green also, by the way.
	I was trying to figure out whose picture she was taking.
	Yours or Ted's?
	Not mine.
	I'm taking Rudy.
	I know.
	I was encouraging Ted and the girl in the green to get to know each other a little better.
	She's great.
	She's great.
	She's conservative, too, if she's at the Newsmax party.
	Yeah, no, she's conservative.
	Great people.
	A lot of friends we see here.
	But you recognize all these people.
	Matt Schlapp, Mercedes, I see in there.
	Wow. And my buddy Nat Modica from Nassau County.
	Joe Cairos and all the boys.
	I see him back there in the Newsmax hat.
	Good thing no one has their finger up their nose or anything, you know what I mean?
	And Newsmax withstood and had a nice game today, right?
	You know what?
	These early days with these young stocks, this is like a meme stock.
	There's very few shares outstanding right now.
	So action comes in, the stock flies up.
	Other people try to, you know, they're all leftists, Rudy.
	Left-wing liberal hedge funds who are intentionally selling Newsmax shares to depress the price.
	That's happening.
	And I'm short selling them.
	They're short selling.
	the stock.
	Could that be happening in the broad-based market also?
	It happens in the broad-based market, but they're doing it on Newsmax.
	And you could see in the middle of the day today, they started to try to unwind that a little bit, and the stock ran from 40 to 70.
	So they're still trapped.
	But you know what?
	Chris Ruddy's been building value for nine years that I know him.
	And whether the stock price is 40 or 80 or 100, to me, I'm not selling a darn Chris was very generous, gave me a lot of shares for my service to the company.
	I'm not selling a single share.
	I think this is only the beginning.
	Wow. Thank you.
	Thank you very, very much.
	Thank you for having me.
	And we will be back very, very shortly.
	We're going to have Miranda Devine with us to talk about the gag order imposed by the Biden administration on the hard drive so that Biden could lie to everyone.
	And the 51 spies who lied and also destroyed America could lie.
	We'll be right back.
	back. We'll be right back.
	Same.
	U.S. Army Major Scott Smiley paid a high price serving our nation.
	Scott was leading his platoon in Iraq when a blast sent shrapnel through his eyes, leaving him blind and temporarily paralyzed.
	Scott would become the first blind, active-duty military officer before medically retiring years later.
	Thanks to friends like you, the Tunnel to Towers Foundation gave Scott and his family a mortgage-free, specially-adapted smart home.
	Show your support for America's heroes now!
	Donate $11 a month to Tunnels and Towers at t2t.com 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 green, 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.
	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!
	Ha ha ha!
	You're gonna want to specially order these.
	This is what goes into Rudy's coffee.
	Rudy's coffee.
	This is Rudy Giuliani readjusting now that John has gone off to other pursuits, and we're shortly going to have Miranda Devine on to talk about the gag order that was imposed by the FBI,
	the corrupt FBI, before taken over by Kash Patel, in which they refused to discuss the hard drive or the computer Of Hunter Biden, which they knew was completely valid and which they knew contained extraordinary amounts of crime at the highest levels of our government and the government of Ukraine.
	And it's made, it's still largely being hidden.
	Some of the worst parts of it are largely being hidden.
	We were talking about Newsmax and the wonderful ringing of the bell today in honor of their stock coming out this week.
	And it's really wonderful because it's a free speech stock.
	Newsmax is necessary.
	We need Newsmax.
	And of course, not the only one.
	The same thing is true with Lindell TV, which I have the honor of being on with the Rudy Giuliani show right before this show.
	These are networks that are necessary.
	So that we can return America to being a country of free speech and not be like England and Germany and the places where...
	How about France, where they're putting Marine Le Pen...
	They're not even putting her in jail, they're just disqualifying her from running for office because she's the number one candidate.
	Reminds you of what your Secretary of State in Michigan did, Ted?
	Jocelyn The Crook Benson?
	Who just took Trump off the ballot because she decided she decided he was involved in an insurrection that never happened This is going on all over the Western countries who are overwhelmed with corruption and Marxism and Out of control insane desire for power and money and it goes together power and money Elon Musk pointed out And that everybody should take a look at the members
	of Congress who made millions while they were in Congress or who are still in Congress making millions.
	It can be true that some of them made it because they're brilliant investors or their father died and left it to them.
	Okay, but that is not generally the story.
	There's an old saying about a politician.
	You can tell if he's honest by looking at his shoes.
	Meaning how much does he spend on the shoes, right?
	They do tend to get kind of gaudy about it.
	There's also a process in politics where they do business very often, you know, and are involved with extraordinarily wealthy people, particularly with the fundraising part of it, as well as the people who are lobbying them.
	And they begin to believe they're entitled.
	They begin to believe they're entitled to the same lifestyle, even though they're public servants.
	And they're not entitled to anything except to do a good job.
	In fact, that's all all of us are entitled to.
	And I've never met more entitled people than politicians.
	And I never found any group of people easier to prosecute than politicians.
	I'd love to cross-examine them because they don't know how to tell the truth.
	They literally, somewhere along the way, forgot how to tell the truth.
	And they generally do not face a skilled cross-examiner who doesn't ask you a question unless he knows why he's asking you that question.
	And it's usually leading to your destruction.
	Including the times when I would begin a cross-examination by kind of playing really stupid, like I didn't know what I was doing, so that the person would get disarmed.
	Oh, Mr. Giuliani, you don't know that?
	You don't know that!
	You don't know that!
	And then faced them with, you know, some very, very dramatic contradictions.
	Things they didn't know that they said, things they forgot they said, things that they thought they had weaseled their way out of.
	And that's when they get totally out of their minds, because they're used to weaseling their way out of everything.
	No wonder they're the most dishonored A group of people in our country.
	Maybe the reporters are, I don't know.
	You think that, if you were to ask, what's the most dishonorable profession in America?
	And you listed things like lawyer, doctor, judge, politician, cab driver, whatever.
	Where do you think The lawyer, politician, judge, and doctor thing would come out.
	Ted, you want to take a try at that?
	Who do you think right now is the most distrusted?
	Out of those three?
	Politician, lawyer, judge, and doctor.
	I know you and I would put judge at the top.
	I would put judge at...
	I won't speak for you.
	The general public, I'm not sure, but I would say judge.
	Lawyers, because like, my goodness, outside a handful, right, they're all...
	Politicians are always just...
	I would say, I mean, Mayor, I don't know if maybe this is the point of your question.
	You go through each one of them and I'm sitting here thinking, my God, they're worse than the last!
	It almost depends on the news of the day, right?
	Yeah. So during the Trump trials, when we had Engelmoor on...
	And we obviously think of your trials too.
	And the judge with the daughter who is becoming a millionaire off the Biden-Harris campaign.
	And he was screwing Biden day in and day out, making up the law.
	Right. I think at that point, judges were among among the most disreputable and the most consequential to our system.
	Yeah. Yeah, I think.
	But I think lawyers always have been.
	Lawyers are.
	I mean, I remember I remember an old joke that takes too long to tell that I used to use sometimes at law school graduations.
	And this goes back 30 years ago about how lawyers just don't get into heaven.
	I'll tell you the story, what the heck.
	It's a priest and a doctor and a lawyer who all die at the same time.
	They go in front of St. Peter, and the doctor gets a very nice condominium in a beautiful part of heaven, and he thanks St. Peter.
	And the priest gets his own house, a single-family house, in an even nicer part of heaven.
	And then the lawyer is there, and St. Peter greets him and says, I'm going to give you the biggest mansion we have available right now.
	So they turn around somewhat in shock, and the doctor and the priest turn around and look at St. Peter, and they say, we hate to question you because we made it to heaven.
	However, how come he gets the big mansion?
	And St. Peter says, because he's the first one here since Thomas More in the 16th century.
	We don't have any lawyers here.
	This is the first one we've got.
	That is a good one.
	And I think, so that shows you how long lawyers have been completely just disrespected.
	But there's nothing quite like the, there's nothing quite like the Biden people.
	And when we get Miranda, we'll go over that.
	We'll go over that gag order which just drives me nuts because of the 17 months of being accused of being a Russian, what do they call it, plant or whatever.
	Operative. I was a Russian operative when I got the thing from a guy in Dover, Delaware.
	And it contained more crimes than I think Any American president ever committed it.
	I can't imagine we've ever had an American president that we don't, you know, who knows?
	We don't know their backgrounds, but I know that you and I both know there's scandals in American history.
	This thing, for example, Nixon's vice president, Spiro Agnew, the proximate cause of his having to resign as vice president.
	Was taking a $2,500 bribe.
	Yeah. Hunter Biden would have laughed at you if you gave him $2,500.
	I mean, he got $3.5 million from the crookedest woman in Russia, one of Putin's best friends.
	He got $10 million from Solzhenitsyn, who was the crookedest oligarch in Ukraine, which continues to be a corrupt country.
	And he got at least $31 million from our biggest enemy, the Red Chinese.
	That's just what we know about.
	Spiro Adler got $2,500.
	I convicted a congressman of taking a $40,000 bribe.
	I can't imagine that there's any group of politicians that have taken more bribes, more graft, than the Biden family.
	And if you ever think that Joe didn't get it, It's because they hide from you the email, text rather, the text from Joe to his daughter in which he admits it, which is very unusual.
	Very unusual to have an admission in writing from one of the co-defendants in which he says, for 30 years I've given half my salary to my father.
	Well, people say he may be exaggerating.
	Well, sure.
	And Sammy the Bull may be lying.
	I mean, that's true of any witness.
	Why it's called evidence.
	It's evidence because it tends to prove, it's a set of facts that tend to prove that the person is guilty.
	But then it gets tested.
	But you can't just throw it away.
	In fact, what I just described to you, what Hunter Biden did in saying that, is a very, very powerful piece of evidence treated that way in court.
	It's called an admission.
	And it comes in as an exception to the Hearsay Rule, which I won't bother you with.
	The Hearsay Rule has 42 exceptions.
	It's a rule that has more exceptions than rule.
	But an admission will often get you a charge from a judge.
	Then an admission is more credible than a confession.
	Because a confession happens under pressure, and an admission you voluntarily...
	So, nobody forced him to tell his daughter this.
	There was no pressure on him to tell us, go to this.
	He just told it to her.
	So why wouldn't it be true?
	Well, now it's up to the defense lawyer to try to show you why it's not true.
	But it's a very, very solid piece of evidence.
	Completely ignored.
	Completely ignored even by the conservative stations.
	How about the child pornography that Hunter Biden had?
	And how about the fact that Joe knew that Hunter was a danger to his grandchildren and didn't do a damn thing about it?
	I mean, what a lousy scumbag that is.
	And what about his daughter, his granddaughter, Navy, who he's never met?
	All of that, all of that is never mentioned.
	Imagine if Trump had done anything, anything like that or Vance or me or any, any Republican.
	Turning Hunter into a bagman.
	Hunter was, was the bagman of the biggest bagman in American history.
	degenerate drug addict.
	Because of his dependent father?
	Yeah. One would say that if his father was even as caring as half the mafia guys that I prosecuted, he would not have had his son in that business.
	I mean, some of them had their sons in the business, but many of them kept their kids away from him.
	Joe brought him into the corruption that he had practiced all his life With his equally dishonest brothers.
	Israel, while nobody is paying much attention right now, Israel is doing the final job of wiping out Hamas.
	In fact, we now see a movement in Palestine for the first time of Gazans demonstrating against Hamas.
	I don't think I've seen that before.
	Maybe it's happened, but I don't remember seeing that before, even during the time of Arafat.
	Now it's gotten so bad that the Hamas has killed a 22-year-old kid who was demonstrating.
	And now that kid's family has gone and executed the Hamas people.
	And Israel every day keeps applying the pressure because while we're waiting on Iran, They're destroying, as best they can, Hamas, which is dedicated to the destruction of the State of Israel, the elimination of the Jewish people, and death to America.
	So, I mean, they're in our prayers, and they're also protecting us.
	Also, finally, we're taking up our part of it, and rather than being just sitting ducks for the hoodies, which we wore for Two years under the worst president in American history, Joe Biden.
	We're not depending on Israel to hit the hooties back.
	We're doing it, and we're doing it almost every day.
	And by the time we're finished, I don't know how much will be left of Yemen, but there should be nothing left of the hooties.
	So there go two Iranian proxies.
	Hezbollah has run for the hills.
	Nobody can find them.
	Even the Lebanese, who Israel dispatched him in five days.
	Assad? It seems to me, you know, somebody lit up a firecracker right outside his palace and he ran away.
	So Assad is gone.
	The Assad government is gone, which was a part of the Iranian Empire.
	It is being run by people who got to be very careful of by Sunni terrorists who like to kill Christians and are doing it in rather large numbers because the Christians live with the Alawites and the Alawites are the people from which Assad came from and his father and his grandfather.
	So the Sunni Terrorists who took over from the Shiite terrorists are now killing the Alawites.
	But they're also eliminating thousands of Christians.
	And we better just stop it.
	Stop them.
	Just because you're Christian, you don't get any sympathy or any attention.
	People are wiping out Christians all over the world.
	And everybody talks about other people.
	Which they should, including me.
	But I'll be damned if they're going to ignore my own people.
	I mean, if I did that, I'd feel like Chuck Schumer, who's probably one of the biggest rats in the country, who's turned his back on his own people.
	I feel like they're more my people than his.
	When he turned his back on the Jewish people and wanted Netanyahu thrown out of office, If it wasn't for Netanyahu, every one of those groups would be very, very powerful right now.
	When we go back and we look at, hopefully, the demise of the Iranian empire, their power structure was taken apart brick by brick by Benjamin Netanyahu in a one-year period.
	First Hamas, then Hezbollah, Then Assad, and when he had time, the Houthis, which really should have been our responsibility because they were stopping traffic in the Black Sea.
	It is now.
	And now it's time to get rid of the nuclear weapons.
	The president today, do we have that?
	We don't have Miranda yet, do we?
	Well, do we have the peace?
	Yeah, do we have the piece with the president talking about how That he I Think he said he got he got a message from the Iranian government that they're now willing to have direct negotiations Because originally he said that direct are much better than indirect and So, you know, I'll share I'll share with you my concern Yeah, I do.
	But let's play it and then I'll tell you my concern.
	This is from earlier today as the president...
	Was it when he was flying to Florida?
	...
	Beach, Florida.
	faster and you understand the other side a lot better than if you go through intermediaries.
	Would you still be open?
	They wanted to use intermediaries.
	I don't think that's necessarily true anymore.
	I think they're concerned.
	I think they feel vulnerable and I don't want them to feel that way.
	And I think they want to be, yeah, Iran.
	They're talking about Iran.
	You said you don't think they want to use intermediaries anymore.
	Did they send another letter?
	Yeah. Did the UAE let you know about this?
	I know for a fact.
	I think they'd like to have direct talks.
	Did you say anything about what the letter said from Iran?
	No, I just think they, I'm just telling you, I think they want to have, forget about letters, I think they want to have direct talks.
	Better if we have direct talks, I think it goes faster and you.
	I think they want to have direct talks.
	I think they want to have direct talks.
	I do not understand, like I never understood the two-state solution, what the purpose is of negotiating with Iran.
	They're going to lie to you, they're going to double-cross you, and all you're doing is giving them more time to become a nuclear power.
	They have gone way beyond the line where it is absolutely necessary and prudent to destroy their nuclear facilities.
	We have the B-2 bombers within range now.
	We've got a quarter of them.
	A quarter of all that we have in that area.
	That the B-2 bomber can carry up to 30,000 pounds.
	That means it can carry a bomb that can go down and, you know, take out Satan.
	Well, they got Satan below the earth.
	And I am sure, without any doubt, and this is not intelligence that I have or top secret information, this is all my deduction from what I know for years of following this and Israel knows exactly to the inch where every one of these facilities are.
	A combination of us and Israel could probably take them out in a few days.
	I don't know if they can fly the Air Force B-2s.
	I assume they can or can be trained to do it.
	So, I mean, if we just gave it to them, let them do about four days of bombing and Iran as a nuclear power would be finished.
	Now people say, oh, well, they'll just start building up again.
	Well, great.
	Let them take another 10 years to build up and ruin their economy.
	Because at the same time, Trump has already initiated super sanctions on them.
	I mean, he almost doesn't have to do that.
	What he did was he enforced the sanctions that Biden and Obama never enforced.
	That's what he did last time.
	Last time they were Crashing after seven months of him not even applying a new sanction yet, but just enforcing the ones that Obama wasn't because Obama was feeding them billions.
	And Biden was doing the same thing.
	When Biden came into office, they had nothing.
	And in a very short period of time, he funneled a hundred billion dollars into their economy.
	So Trump is now enforcing those Sanctions.
	A lot of the sanctions involve other countries moving their oil around when they're not supposed to.
	So we have to go stop them and stop their bank transfers.
	So it might be, oh gosh, I don't want to pick on a country.
	Let me pick a good one to pick on.
	Turkey. It might be Turkey.
	Might be a Turkish vessel.
	They're picking it up and taking it to China.
	Well, then they have to make a transfer of money.
	We cut that off and seize it.
	And we just do that everywhere we can, every place we can.
	We cut off doing business with anybody doing business with them.
	And the end result is they starve and we flourish.
	Because then we start getting more money for our oil, our gas, and so do our allies.
	And we have to do that with Iran, we have to do that with Russia.
	It's about time to give Putin a punch in the mouth.
	He's been jerking us around now, telling us he wants to have peace, and he's killing people.
	Trying to get a few more inches so that he'll be in a better bargaining position.
	I think the president would solve his problems very, very quickly with a big shocking attack on Iran in which all of Western Europe went crazy and started yelling at him.
	And I think Putin would pee in his pants, which is what he has to do.
	He's got to get Putin to pee in his pants.
	He did that with Xi back in his first term when he just left a dinner with Xi, ordered a tremendous strike on Syria, came back, finished his dinner and never said anything.
	And then Xi went home or went back to the place he was staying and his advisors told him, you know, he just did.
	He just bombed the hell out of Syria.
	He said, during dinner?
	That stays in somebody's mind, my friends.
	That's Ronald Reagan.
	That's what he did for us in winning the Cold War without firing a shot.
	He fired a lot of shots except they were psychological and brilliantly done.
	If you want to relive that and pick up some of that because it covers a lot of it in the movie Reagan with Dennis Quaid playing Ronald Reagan.
	I had the privilege of having lunch with him this Sunday and he really got Ronald Reagan just perfect.
	So we're going to take a short break and we'll be right back.

	is Rudy Giuliani back with you.
	And we're trying to reach.
	One, two, two, one, second, second.
	We're trying to reach Miranda Devine and we're going to put her on right now and I hope you've all read her excellent column today in the New York Post explaining the gag order that the FBI placed on the hard drive just at the time that it was being published in the New York Post and And therefore,
	carrying out really probably one of the major frauds in an American election.
	Even before you get to counting the votes, they had defrauded the American people of critical information about the dishonesty of a man running for president.
	Information that 30, 40% of Democrats said would have had them vote against him if they knew about it.
	Do we have Miranda?
	Miranda, how are you?
	Yes. Hi, Rudy.
	I'm very well, thank you.
	Can you hear me?
	Miranda, can you hear us?
	Yes, I can hear you.
	OK. OK.
	How about now?
	Can you hear me?
	Hi, Miranda.
	Yes, I can.
	So, Miranda, what do you make of this newest You kind of knew about this anyway, didn't you?
	That they had done something like this.
	But an actual gag order, when they knew exactly what the hard drive was, has to show you how corrupt the FBI was.
	Yeah, it's, you know, as you say, this story did come out earlier last year because we One of the senior FBI people, Laura Demlow, had testified behind closed doors to the congressional investigation that Tim Jordan was running.
	However, these chat logs from the FBI, from the day that we published that story in the New York Post that you gave us from the Hunter Biden laptop, that was October 14, 2020, three weeks before the election.
	Those chat logs from internal FBI conversations that day were withheld from Jim Jordan's committee in Congress by Christopher Wray.
	So it's only now because Kash Patel is the FBI director that he released that, they're still heavily redacted, he released those chat logs.
	And so while you're right that it's not exactly a new story, to me it's really very significant because you can see Exactly how it was in real time back on October 14, 2020.
	The sort of panic about the story about Hunter Biden and Joe Biden, more importantly, his corruption, was now out in the New York Post.
	And so you can see senior, very senior FBI Leaders from particularly the New York field office intervening and saying we must not talk about the New York Post story.
	No one can talk about the Biden laptop.
	You've got a office of the General Counsel of the FBI intervening as well and saying that there is a gag order.
	And you're not allowed to talk about it.
	There was an analyst who that day was asked in a meeting with Twitter, one of these election integrity meetings that they were holding regularly before the election, was asked about our story about the Hunter Biden laptop.
	Was it real?
	And he answered yes.
	And then he was admonished.
	You can see in the chat log, was he admonished?
	Yes, he was.
	But he won't shut up.
	So this person, an analyst, was in trouble.
	And these very senior people have stomped in and decided, even though they've had possession of the laptop for 10 months, even though there's no reason why they can't admit that, yes, the laptop is real, they have decided that they're going to just close ranks and protect Joe Biden.
	And then you have to add the context, which you know very well, which is that During those sort of weekly meetings that the FBI was having with these social media companies, they pre-bunked our story before it was published.
	They told Twitter to, and probably Facebook, to be on the lookout for a hack and leak operation, the Russians of course, likely in October and likely involving Hunter Biden.
	And we believe, and I know I've talked to you about that, That the reason they knew that that story was going to be coming up in the days ahead was because they were spying on you.
	They had a covert surveillance warrant on your iCloud, Mr Mayor, as you know, which they hadn't told you about.
	So they were privy to all your conversations on email and on text, and so you were, or SMS, and so you were, they, if they'd been watching, which they should have been, They would have seen the email that came through to you on August 26, 2020 from John Paul MacIsaac, who was the MacBook repair shop owner, telling you exactly what was in the laptop.
	Well, I mean, that is...
	Even though I know this story, and I've known it for some time, it is...
	Shocking to me, having spent my life working with the FBI and having received awards from them, given them awards, represented them.
	It's amazing that they became really a political police force, like you were in a communist or fascist or Nazi country.
	Here they are covering up As you know from the hard drive, unbelievable evidence of crime, crime after crime after crime, bribery, and with our enemies even.
	And you know, even on the most simple level, the story that we published that first day from the laptop, one of many that we published over the subsequent months, was the one that you had pointed out to me was The most important was that Joe Biden had met with one of Hunter Biden's Ukrainian associates in Washington,
	D.C. when he was vice president, and that flew in the face of all his protestations and his insistence that he had never had anything to do, knew nothing about his son Hunter's overseas business dealings.
	So, you know, flat out lie, even if you didn't Pick him up on all the corruption, which we found later on.
	That was just a lie, which would have been very damaging to him in the campaign if the American people had known.
	Well, it gave us four years of hell.
	And I can't stop thinking, I can't stop thinking, Miranda, that all those people in Ukraine, Ukrainian and Russian.
	Yes. And those people in Israel.
	And all the fentanyl deaths that were unnecessary?
	Just wouldn't have happened.
	And Lake and Riley?
	That's what it takes.
	Without tremendous humanitarian devastation that this was done.
	Terrible. Yeah, and the economy.
	I mean, Joe Biden was the most destructive president we've ever had.
	He was also not cognitively fit.
	That was another big scandal cover-up.
	And so, You know, America was saddled with this guy that they were lied about.
	There are many polls that have shown since that if the story of Biden's corruption and lies had been known to the American people before the 2020 election, enough of them would have changed their vote, the Biden voters, to have made a material difference in an election that was decided on a few thousand votes in a handful of states.
	Well, Miranda, again, thank you very, very much for coming on and also for staying with us because at some point these people have to be held accountable if we don't want it to happen again.
	Absolutely, and that's the big issue.
	These are things for which you go to prison if you want to stop other people from doing it.
	Exactly. I think we're in good hands with Kash Patel.
	He's got to get it.
	I think so too and I have to just say also I mean everybody knows who listens to you but you are the hero of this entire story and you've suffered a lot for it and I'm glad things are now sort of ironed out for you a little bit but I think people history will record you as having done your valiant best to stop this disaster of Biden more than anyone else.
	You too I remember and we'll never forget.
	Thank you Miranda.
	Thank you very, very much.
	She is one of our great columnists, investigators, reporters, and just people.
	It wasn't universally embraced, the idea of publishing that, and she and a couple of her colleagues are the main reason it got published.
	Who knows?
	It might have been lost to history if it wasn't, and that would be terrible.
	Because if you think what we are confronting now is bad, if it had continued without discovery, without Trump unearthing it, and like John Tobacco was saying about the economy, the same thing has to be done with our judicial system, and the same thing has to be done with our law enforcement system, and the same thing has to be done with our health system.
	They've all been horribly corrupted.
	By the Democrats, and particularly the ones who followed, sort of, I think it all started with Clinton and got much worse under Obama and got absurd under Biden.
	Well, everybody's all, in addition to overreacting to the tariffs, Which, as John pointed out, is really a reaction to the whole economy.
	Republicans are overreacting to last Tuesday.
	First of all, when a president is as popular as he is, and they're not on the ticket, there's a big fall-off.
	A lot of people That might have voted.
	So there are two different issues involved, right?
	So in Wisconsin, we lost an opportunity to take over the Supreme Court.
	You got to remember, we didn't have the Supreme Court.
	So we didn't lose a seat.
	We didn't gain a seat.
	That court was four to three wacko liberal.
	Intellectually dishonest judges who I even questioned if they ever paid attention in law school, and they certainly didn't pay attention to their oath.
	Some of their decisions are so intellectually dishonest, they'd be laughable if they weren't tragic.
	But they went ahead and, you know, I was watching them celebrate the other night, and I was saying, oh yeah, they're really happy.
	They can kill more kids now.
	Gee, you know, it's not enough that they abort in the first three months.
	Now they can do the seventh month, the eighth month.
	They can buy a lot more of those vacuum cleaners they use to suck the baby out of the womb, or hatchets maybe they use to chop the baby's head off.
	And then maybe they could even do what tampon tin does, where even if the kid avoids the abortion and gets born, you just don't feed them or do anything, let the kid die.
	So they're really happy they're going to get to do that.
	And they're really happy that they're going to get to mutilate your kid without your permission.
	Because the kid belongs to them, not you.
	Belongs to the state.
	This is what they stand for, these judges.
	These are the kinds of judges who can't define a woman.
	Like the one on the Supreme Court, Jackson.
	Can you tell me what a woman is?
	No, I'm not a biologist.
	No, you're not.
	You're either a lying, dishonest politician, or an absolutely stupid moron.
	In either case, not only don't you belong on a court, you probably shouldn't be a court clerk, or I'm not even sure you should clean a courtroom.
	You're so stupid.
	So the people of Wisconsin wanted that on their Supreme Court.
	You know, Wisconsin has never been a Solidly Republican state, it goes back and forth and back and forth and back and forth.
	And they have elected some real lulas.
	On the other hand, they did vote by 65% for keeping, again, not a change, keeping ID, picture ID identification in an election, which is a lot further than most other Democrat states go.
	And can go a long way in helping us make sure we get an honest election next time.
	Even if that Supreme Court gets an opportunity to render a dishonest decision, tossing it to Democrats, they will.
	Crawford, the woman who won, astonishingly has already told us that, you know, if you elect me, we can have a Democrat Congress.
	She's already told us how she's going to decide On a redistricting, gerrymandering bill hasn't even passed yet.
	How she can tell us that she's going to deliver two more seats in Congress is probably the best indication that she's completely dishonest, completely unscrupulous, silly, maybe not so silly, wacky left-winger.
	It's like the state attorney general they have in this state.
	I'm in New York right now.
	And who ran on, I'm going to get Trump.
	I mean, having been a prosecutor, I can't imagine that I'd have been appointed by Ronald Reagan if I said, I want to get Schumer.
	Maybe a lot of people would be kind of happy about it, probably, if I did get Schumer.
	But I have something called ethics.
	And so do the people who appointed me.
	They don't.
	So that's the Wisconsin election.
	It's also a swing state.
	And here's when I get nervous.
	And it's true of all the advice I ever gave to others, and the president in particular, and to myself.
	You start to worry when you start to lose your base.
	When that starts to...
	Look, his base has taken him very far, right?
	To a surprise victory in 16. And to what I know without any doubt, and am more than happy to say it in front of St. Peter, a victory in 2020.
	And a very surprisingly big victory given the realities of modern politics in 2024.
	So when that base starts to deteriorate, that's when you have to worry.
	Now, so people say, well, Patronus And Randy Fine in Florida, the 6th District and the 1st District, won by less than he did, or less than their predecessors, Walls and Gates.
	Now they won by 15-16%.
	When you get to that level, it almost doesn't matter.
	So next time, we'll win those districts by 15% instead of 30%.
	I'm not worried about that.
	That's a question of lack of interest.
	If you had to produce that number of people because, like it was in 24, the country was on the line, you'd produce it.
	And if it were Trump campaigning, you'd produce it because he'd do one of his rallies and they'd all come out and they'd all remember to vote.
	I would not.
	Get worried about a margin of victory moving from 30 to 15. That when you don't have Donald Trump on the ballot, when you've got two good candidates, but neither one of them is John Kennedy or Ronald Reagan or even Barack Obama or Donald Trump, like enormously skilled politicians.
	And they won by numbers That nowadays most politicians don't win by.
	So what that says to me is, we haven't taken any heat at all in our critical states, our core states.
	We got a little trouble in probably the most difficult state for us to win, Wisconsin.
	But we're going to have a little trouble in Wisconsin.
	That's the way it is.
	Maybe next time we can replace it with with New Jersey?
	What do you think?
	I have my friend here from New Jersey, Robert.
	What do you think?
	When is New Jersey ready to do a Pennsylvania and come over and get rid of all those crooked mayors?
	He got the worst governor in America, Murphy.
	Yeah, communist he is for sure.
	A liar, major liar.
	Killed old people like Cuomo.
	Well, how about Alina Haba?
	Well, maybe that's what she gonna be.
	You know, everybody wonders why did she take the job as U.S. attorney?
	I remember a guy who became mayor who was U.S. attorney in New York.
	You remember?
	And I remember a guy who was U.S. attorney became governor of New Jersey.
	In fact, it's hard to forget him.
	Yeah, well, I was with him the day he announced, you know.
	I'll be very proud if New Jersey comes to their senses.
	I mean, a lot of people have already.
	Everybody I know.
	Everybody that I know in New Jersey.
	I mean, it isn't the 19th century when Christie won.
	It was just, what, 20 years ago or whatever.
	The beached sperm whale.
	Yeah, sperm whale.
	He was a very good friend.
	Now he says all terrible things about me.
	You said he's a decent baseball player, actually, right?
	I even said, yeah!
	Actually, it's amazing for his weight, the way he carries himself as an athlete.
	When he was young, he must have been.
	He helped me create a 1,000 winning record at Yankee Stadium.
	Because I only pitched one game.
	But he's a good ballplayer.
	The anger that he has towards Trump and his recollection of history is very...
	Shaky? To say the least.
	Trump seems to anger a lot of people, and you have to wonder why.
	A lot of politicians...
	He's ruining it for them.
	He's ruining it.
	Anybody who changes things the way he does...
	Yeah, they've got comfortable little scams going on, and they don't like to see it.
	Yeah. Yeah.
	He's changing everything.
	This has to be...
	Well, the New Deal was required because of the Depression, right?
	So you'd say probably of civil war, different situation.
	I'm going to say this might well be the biggest attempt to change government that we've ever had, or at least equal to the New Deal.
	Thank God.
	And what he's trying to do is deconstruct a monster that was created.
	Yeah. We now have four branches of government, even though the Constitution says only three.
	All those agencies are branches of government.
	I'm not sure if we don't have more employees not working than working, if you take the military out.
	We've got the government workforce, and please, they're going to get really angry, God, as part of it.
	But in many cases, they do more harm than good.
	I mean, if they weren't around, like if the Department of Education wasn't around, maybe our kids wouldn't have sunk down about 30 spots in education.
	And almost the whole world is educated better than our kids because of the teachers union.
	What more do people have to see?
	What more do American people have to see?
	How far down did it have to go?
	Look at these things that Musk is uncovering.
	I mean, it's crazy.
	People laugh at them, but these are really sad.
	$50 million to some country we don't even know for condoms?
	I thought it was interesting when Musk the other day said, he says kind of funny, I don't know, maybe I'd like to take a walk around Fort Knox, see if the gold is still there.
	What was that?
	Was that a little messaging or something?
	What was that?
	You know, you got to wonder, maybe they know something.
	Well, I mean, I pick on the condoms because, and I can find 10 others, because I hope you realize that there's a 9 out of 10 chance that that's a complete scam for Graf, because I don't think they bought any condoms at all.
	They just took the $50 million and whacked it up.
	Absolutely. I haven't seen any.
	What do they sell?
	Is this Sri Lanka?
	They sent it to some place that only has about 20,000 people.
	So, American people, you have to do what Americans have always done.
	Be patriotic, stand behind your president, and things will get better.
	You've got to get rid of these animals.
	You know, you know by now that these people are up to no good.
	Well, I think you do.
	Now, Howard Lutnick, there are lots of rumors about Howard Lutnick, and there are of course rumors about Elon.
	Now, Elon, in fact, Has only 138 days, I think is 35 or 138 days as a non-salaried sort of volunteer.
	There's a restriction of 130 something days in that capacity.
	I'm not sure if it can be renewed.
	We'll have to look.
	So when he talks about, I think I can get up to a trillion dollars.
	He sees that as sort of his His, um, point where he may not be able to function any longer, which in a way is a good thing because I think like the president, because he has just one term, uh, he's working harder and getting it done quicker.
	And you listen to those people that were being interviewed on Brett Baier, who they called the Musk Musketeers.
	Oh, yes.
	That was very interesting.
	You don't get people of that caliber too often in the government.
	Yeah. You're getting the application of people who have created ingenious, enormously wealthy enterprises looking at a shitshow.
	Yeah, putting their brains behind this problem now.
	Yeah. But, you know, there's the hatred it's created.
	As we covered last night, we've spent a lot of time showing all the people being bombed, attacked.
	But is that not a select group of paid operatives that go in, make a...
	create a mess, and then they have a bunch of schmucks with earrings through their noses and green hair?
	These are not even...
	Well, you know, most of the demonstrations are that way.
	Even the college demonstrations.
	Something like 3% of the college students that agree with...
	It's a contrived...
	Psy-op.
	I would guess in those...
	those demonstrations are probably more than half The college demonstrations.
	Yeah. Are more than half operatives.
	Right. That are paid for by Soros.
	The blind leading the blind.
	People like him.
	We know that 2020 they were all paid.
	And not only that, they were staged in places where Soros had the district attorney under his thumb and therefore they never went to jail.
	I think Ted evidence did pretty good with that girl that he interviewed and she basically admitted that she has no education.
	Well, she does.
	She went to Fordham, which is a Jesuit school and I went to Manhattan College, and they were our rivals.
	No, we did have an education.
	I don't know what they did at Fordham, but I mean, she said she didn't know why she was there.
	She was supporting NYU.
	Yeah. She was supporting NYU.
	I think she knew something about Palestinians were being tortured or whatever.
	Maybe she knew the Jews were bad.
	Yeah. But that was about it.
	And then she turned to her friend, who She sort of said was more educated than her.
	She knew less.
	She didn't know, yeah.
	No, she actually knew less.
	She said, well, I really don't know anything about this.
	We're just here, you know, just maybe to light a few matches.
	And all of these peaceful demonstrations, I mean, that's a lot of garbage.
	They all end up with fires.
	Whoever heard of a peaceful demonstration?
	You burn a building down.
	The fire department gets a little annoyed at that.
	There's a bunch of young dummies that were probably watching videos from the 60s and said, yeah, we're going to protest because we're going to be political.
	Those are the ones who are manipulated.
	Yeah. But the ones that are the ones that are paid operatives are, yeah, they know exactly what they're doing and they know how to get it to that point.
	Oh, and doesn't the news media always show up for the event too, to make sure they can propagate the images throughout the United States?
	I mean, they're beating up on cops a lot worse than anything I ever saw at J6.
	I mean, they say, oh, it was terrible.
	The president pardoned people that hit cops.
	First of all, it was only a small percentage that hit cops, if they did.
	In many cases, it was scuffling because the cops were attacking them, including putting the tear gas on them.
	But when you look at one of the college riots of last year, or the riots of 2020, or even what goes on now, They're fighting with the cops all the time, banging them over the head, hitting them.
	Because now they know they can get away with it.
	They should go free, whereas the January 6th people should go to jail for 50 years and not even get bail.
	Right. It's crazy.
	It's absolutely crazy that there is a theater going on for the American people who are working their asses off all day long, come home, they just want to have dinner and sit down and watch the news, but they don't realize they're getting anti-news.
	I need to show everybody this.
	These pictures here are so great.
	So we are in a hotel right now called the Lexington Hotel.
	John Tobacco is in this hotel also.
	That's the room that Marilyn Monroe used to use.
	I can't see it anymore.
	Right there, show it.
	Marilyn Monroe's room.
	Has to be part of the suite.
	I'd give Marilyn Monroe a much bigger room than that.
	Wouldn't you, John?
	Yeah, my gosh, she can have any room she wanted.
	She could have my room.
	Look at that.
	I mean, hopefully that's part of the suite.
	What do you think?
	normal room to be there.
	Are you in that room?
	That sure seems very familiar to me there.
	It could be, you know, it could be when she was like an aspiring young Actress or something, right?
	Yes. What do you think?
	I could see it totally.
	I could see it.
	Plus, yeah, I'm sure it's gone through some renovations.
	Oh yeah, absolutely.
	New York hotel rooms...
	Joe DiMaggio couldn't fit on that bed.
	No. He was about 6'2".
	New York City hotel rooms tend to be smaller.
	He couldn't stay on that bed because he had bad legs and they would hang over, he would get hurt.
	But look how small that room is and this is a very nice hotel.
	You know the great story about Marilyn Monroe that I love the most?
	When she came back from Japan, married to Joe Fuller, when she came back from Japan, she said, gee Joe, you're unbelievable.
	I had like 40,000 people yelling for me.
	Imagine, you probably never experienced anything like that.
	He used to experience 60 or 70,000 people every day.
	She had no idea who he was.
	She had no idea.
	He was a hell of a lot more famous than she was.
	I mean, she became famous, but...
	And he wanted a nice...
	Now, there you gotta wonder.
	Joe was a friend of mine, and as you know, I got my Joe DiMaggio jersey back.
	But you have to wonder, when you read the biographies and it says he wanted, like, a little Italian wife.
	I never saw a little Italian wife like that.
	And then he got all upset when her skirt got blown up.
	Right over here.
	They have the spot marked out.
	Oh, is that right?
	Right over here.
	Her skirt went up.
	So let's see what else we have here.
	There's, oh, there.
	Now, this is what I was looking for.
	I want you to meet this woman because she's dangerous.
	This is a state senator from New York.
	And this is Senator Pat Fahey.
	Now, she is a lame-brain.
	And I'm going to tell you why she's a lame-brain.
	She is introducing a bill, I'm going to say this slowly, that would ban the sale of Teslas in New York.
	Of course, you want to know what party she belongs to?
	You have any doubt?
	Yeah. How can you ban a car from being sold?
	Based on what?
	That he's trying to cut the government?
	What does it have to do with the car?
	Yeah. And don't they have any conscience about the fact that they're destroying somebody's...
	These cars don't belong to Elon Musk.
	They belong to the person who bought them.
	Yeah. Right.
	I've had my Tesla in the garage for about three weeks now.
	I'm not even taking it out.
	I'm using my beater for now.
	But you didn't buy it, man.
	A lot of these people whose cars they're destroying are probably stupid wackies like them who bought it because of the green crap.
	Yeah. Oh, I did not, you know, but you may or may not know this, I should explain.
	I bought that car because it's 475 horsepower and I have a lot of fun with that thing.
	The reason I say it's a bunch of wackies who go for the green crap is it's going to do a lot more damage.
	A lot more damage if it does do damage.
	It does, it will.
	But if it does do damage, it's going to do a lot more damage when they have to produce the requisite energy.
	To take care of all these cars.
	Yes. It will produce a lot more carbon dioxide, which actually may be good, but don't tell them that.
	And just like regular gasoline cars, the materials that the vehicle itself is made of are going to have to be disposed of or reclaimed somehow or another, so anything you produce...
	So these, I mean, a lot of these people who buy this Tesla and the other crazy electric cars, I think electric cars are just crazy, but yeah, like when you have to stop and They're a local car.
	That's all they're really good for.
	I love when Trump says, we're going to have electric tanks.
	Yeah. And then in the middle of the battle, the bulge, we're all going to stop.
	Okay. Everybody stop and refuel.
	Time to charge.
	And then we'll continue shooting again in 20 hours.
	Because the tanks, you know, while they're blowing the shit out of everybody, you're keeping the environment nice and clean.
	So you should know that my friend A-Rod, great Yankee, now is an owner of the Minnesota Timberwolves.
	He bought it with Mark Lorry, who is a tech mogul.
	And they also, along with the Timberwolves, they bought the Minnesota Lynx, which is a WNBA team.
	And A-Rod has for quite some time wanted to own a team.
	You know, he tried to get the Mets, which I felt a little bad about.
	Not because I dislike the Mets, But I think he should stay on the Yankee side in New York.
	But in any event, he now is a basketball owner.
	So I hope it makes him happy.
	He is a terrific sportscaster.
	I think he and Big Papi together, I would love to see them do a regular show when they do the World Series, which they've been doing for about five years.
	I mean, Big Papi is like the comedian.
	He's like the straight man.
	And the two of them love each other, both from the Dominican Republic.
	And A-Rod was supporting Papi's charity before Big Papi was Big Papi.
	A-Rod was a star at 18. At 20 years old, he had 50 home runs.
	There's a guy a little like Trump.
	Everybody says bad things about him.
	He's the nicest guy you'll ever meet.
	Most charitable, nicest guy you'd ever meet, who will do anything for anyone.
	I once brought a kid to him that suffered from autism.
	He spent a half hour with the kid.
	The kid came away, basically owned the Yankees.
	And then, you know, what the youngster said, the youngster, he had a, he had a, he had a baseball that A-Rod had signed for him.
	And the other kids at school, I told him it wasn't worth going to Yankee Stadium unless he came back with Jeter and with A-Rod.
	They're the only ones that meant anything.
	So we got Jeter very early, but A-Rod was injured.
	So he was being worked on by the trainer.
	And it was getting near time that we had to get off the field.
	And I asked one of the Yankee, he went up to one of the Yankee players And the Yankee player came up to him and said, can I sign your ball?
	And he looks at the player and says, no, I want A-Rod.
	Which would have insulted most players.
	And the player laughed, and I explained to him the situation.
	He said, I'll go get him.
	Went inside, brought A-Rod out.
	A-Rod is talking to the kid and the kid's father and me, and gets very friendly with him.
	And then he asked the father for permission to take him in the clubhouse.
	He says, can I take him in the clubhouse for a while?
	You know, it's still about an hour before the game.
	And he says, he looks at me like, can we trust him?
	Yeah, yeah, you can do it.
	Comes out about a half hour later and he's having a hard time carrying all the stuff.
	He's got somebody helping carry all the stuff.
	He's got jerseys and hats and a little baseball bat, but he's got this baseball.
	And he says, you see, this will prove it to them.
	There's A-Rod's signature and there's Judah's signature.
	And not only that, he gave me a glove, put it on the glove, and that has A-Rod's DNA.
	So, I've always loved A-Rod for that.
	Finally, I don't know if you know what ActBlue is.
	ActBlue is the organization that collects money for the Communist Party, otherwise known as the Democrat Party.
	Now, ActBlue has some major clients.
	The Democrat Party, Soros, and basically all the left-wingers who are trying to destroy our country.
	And they probably handle more of the left-wing Democrat money than anyone.
	They are sometimes accused of taking too much of a cut.
	So Democrats sometimes try to avoid them.
	But A little quick audit of them, which maybe was inspired by Doge and maybe not, because we're now like the Department of the Interior hadn't been ordered in seven years.
	We don't order any of the money that we give to Ukraine.
	That's insane.
	Hopefully that becomes a trend.
	So they don't get audited either.
	They finally got ordered and they were found to have 237 donations from overseas.
	Of course, we can't use foreign money in American elections.
	That's what the whole Russian make-believe collusion case was about.
	And what the Ukraine collusion case was really about, for which Hillary should have gone to jail, but Hillary's not allowed.
	allowed to go to jail.
	Do we know?
	I was going to ask Ted, who's our political expert, why is Howard Lutnick in trouble?
	I like Howard very, very much.
	Going back, of course, I have a real bond with Howard.
	Over September 11, he lost half his company on September 11, and then spent his life...
	I mean, I've gone to more fundraisers that he put together for his people.
	And, you know, obviously, he's a hard-driving businessman, so some people aren't going to like him.
	But he's been absolutely terrific for those people.
	Right. He's a very good man.
	Well, I would say...
	And he's a very smart man.
	Right. Well, I would say, first of all, this is a common tactic by the left and their allies in the legacy media to create rifts, right, or to attempt to create a rift between cabinet officials and the president.
	And with the, with Liberation Day and all the, all the work on these tariffs and these trade negotiations, I truly believe part of this is And it's not to discredit all the reporting.
	It's not just to be a cheerleader or just to be a simple homer, right?
	But I feel that part of this definitely is a media concoction mixed with some vipers from within, right?
	Taking this as an opportunity to knife Mr. Letnik, right?
	Other people within the admin, right?
	Uh, who want to use it as an opportunity to, to knife Mr. Lutnick.
	The story is written, people in Washington then start, you know, the idea is it can take away some of the, uh, the power and authority behind Mr. Lutnick, right?
	If people think, well, he's not in with the boss, he's on his way out.
	Well, they get very, very nervous about anybody that gets too close to the boss.
	Right. They were very nervous about me when I represented him.
	I had several good friends, Who I assisted in their getting their positions, who used to think I talked about them.
	I have no idea why they would think that.
	I didn't have time to talk about them.
	I was trying to get the president out from under the eight ball.
	When I came in, more than a majority of the American people thought the charges against him were absolutely true.
	Something like over 60%.
	And I was very worried with numbers like that.
	Very few others knew this, but I'd been in the Republican Party for quite some time.
	I figured with those numbers, those rat Republican senators, the ones that are rats, would vote against him.
	And he could get not just impeached, but thrown out of office.
	He was definitely going to get impeached with a Democratic Congress.
	Now we were going to go before the Senate with McConnell, who Who was suffering from some of the same problems Biden was suffering from including getting plenty of money from Red China And then you had Romney there a couple of others that hated him a little switch in public opinion and They'd have thrown him out So it was a full-time job
	For Jay and I and Jane and the people who did it to flip that around not not just a legal part Because if you remember, ultimately, Mueller came to the conclusion he didn't do it.
	Well, did Mueller come to any real conclusions?
	I saw the statement of Mr. Mueller during those hearings, man.
	No, he came to the conclusion that it was...
	Yeah, I know, I know.
	He went even further than it couldn't be proven beyond a reasonable doubt.
	He basically said that you could prove that it wasn't true beyond a reasonable doubt.
	I mean, Mueller's report was a complete vindication of it.
	Not the New York Times.
	I mean, the New York Times got a Pulitzer Prize for a completely phony story.
	And then ultimately it was shown, not only was it untrue, but it was purchased and created by Hillary Clinton, which is extraordinary.
	And she has no accountability for it.
	She paid at minimum $1.1 million to steal, to create a group of phony allegations.
	About Russia, when he hadn't been in Russia in 17 years, when he had been discredited by the FBI as a source, and then when the FBI wanted to revive it again to try to get even for Comey, who should have been fired for lying on a Pfizer report, they offered Steele a million dollars to come back, even though they had gotten rid of him.
	I mean, the things that the FBI did are beyond being forgiven.
	And people gotta get prosecuted for it.
	And if they don't, it'll happen again.
	The only way to really frighten people into not doing this kind of crap in government, you know, the kind of thing that they're doing all over the world now.
	Putting Marine Le Pen in prison.
	Maduro putting his opponent in prison.
	The guy in Turkey, Erdogan, putting the mayor of Istanbul Who's leading him in the polls?
	In prison.
	And I'm missing three or four.
	Biden has started a thing here, you know.
	Now he borrows it from the banana republics, but it had never moved much beyond the banana republics and of course, you know, communism and Nazism.
	Now the Western governments are embracing this idea.
	Well, I can't win because we're terrible.
	Let me put my opponent in prison.
	Which becomes like a dictatorial world Be very comfortable for China to take over a world like that.
	That's a big global precedent We should be demonstrating just the opposite.
	Yeah, and then I you know And of course the left-wing is trying to scare If you can't I don't know how you can scare the president but trying to scare the people around the president when you can't be vindictive and You can't politicize the criminal justice system Yeah.
	Well, you don't have to politicize it.
	It is politicized.
	They got there first.
	What you got to do is to stop politicizing it, but at the same time, not let people get away with serious crimes.
	I mean, the people who framed him committed a serious crime.
	The new piece of junk senator from California, Shifty Schiff, is one of the major criminals in America.
	He engaged in an attempt to overthrow a lawfully elected president with false testimony.
	That's a pretty damn serious crime.
	Is there any kind of time frame, do you think, Mayor, for this?
	There's always statute of limitations that you gotta be careful of.
	Yeah, right?
	For these people to be accountable, to be held accountable, what's the time frame on this?
	We gotta get these people- And holding them accountable, holding them accountable stops other people from doing it.
	I believe That if we had prosecuted Comey, and his number two guy, and Strzok, and his girlfriend, and a couple of those most prominent people, that some of the things the Democrats, when they went to phase 2, 3, and 4, or DEFCON 2, 3, and 4, might not have happened.
	But they tried everything to stop him from being president.
	And now they're going after Elon because They can't really stop them.
	And they really did create a phenomenon that the more they go after them, the more popular they make them.
	So now they've made Elon their target.
	I mean, for a while, I was their target.
	Yeah. They're really bad, very bad people.
	And the only way you're going to stop them, they're not going to stop because they have a conscience.
	They lost out a long time ago.
	They're going to stop because they're scared out of their minds.
	Right. They have to lose this war against freedom that they're engaged in.
	we will be broadcasting to you from another place not the city of New York I imagine you saw I imagine you saw my picture With Mayor Adams, huh?
	Of course, the hit of the night were the pictures of Ted waving on the floor of the Stock Exchange, or Dr. Maria putting her tongue out.
	Other way, other way.
	You're going the wrong way now.
	You think?
	No, well, that's...
	Those two boats...
	Those two boats mean a lot to me because this is...
	When I came into government under Ronald Reagan, this was one of my responsibilities, was to stop the Haitian boatlifts.
	And that looks exactly like, you know, 30 years ago.
	That's a group of Haitians in the ocean, the Atlantic Ocean.
	You see that boat?
	This is the Atlantic Ocean.
	This is not the lake in Central Park.
	You get a storm and they're done.
	Yeah. Do you know, on a not so infrequent a basis, a whole group of people like that, their bodies would show up on the shores of Miami.
	Yeah. Ronald Reagan stopped it with a stay in Haiti program.
	He took the Coast Guard, like that group there, and I think that's what they're doing.
	They're stopping them before they come across and sending them back to Port-au-Prince.
	You're saying, oh, they want to come to America.
	If it works like the old one works, there's a guy who got a couple hundred bucks from each one of them who has promised them a place to live, a job, And everything else in America, and of course, there's nothing for them.
	And that boat will end up on the shores of Miami or Fort Lauderdale or Boca Raton, and they'll just be chased off the boat.
	And the captain will disappear.
	And if they make it, and this is humane, this is what the Democrats create, that.
	So I thought, People would want to see that.
	There's Mayor Adams.
	The day he got cleared, yesterday.
	And there are the two of us together, last night.
	At, um...
	At Sparks Steakhouse, the place where Paul Castellano was killed by, well, really by John Gotti, right?
	And there's...
	Well, we Miranda, who was on with us tonight, and I thank you very much for joining us.
	Tomorrow night we'll be back again from a new location, which we're going to keep a surprise and try to make sense of all this that's going on and make sure that you have the information that you need as an American citizen, which is being kept from you by the censors.
	Who still operate.
	We cracked through them now, but they still operate.
	And you have to keep vigilant to make sure that they don't get control.
	Let's pray for the people of Israel and let's pray for the people of Ukraine that pretty soon they're going to have peace.
	Let's pray for the people of Iran that they have freedom.
	And of course, let's let's pray for the president to give him the strength and the wisdom to endure all of this.
	And again, of course.
	Tomorrow night, seven o'clock, for the Rudy Giuliani show, and eight o'clock from America's Mayor Live, right here on X. God bless America!
	you.
	This would be a good B-roll from the stock exchange.
	This way?
	Okay. Right that way, right?
	Travel the door.
	All right.
	And then.
	All right.
	you 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.
