The Rudy Giuliani Show dissects President’s Day, arguing Washington and Lincoln deserve separate holidays while criticizing FDR’s fourth term for selling out Eastern Europe to Stalin. Giuliani condemns the Nancy Pelosi abduction investigation, citing crime scene mishandling, delayed DNA analysis, and sheriff incompetence, contrasting it with Savannah Guthrie’s plea for hope. The episode also explores Kim Jong Un’s potential successor, his daughter Kim Juae, amid internal power struggles, and praises Robert Duvall’s career. Geopolitical tensions include U.S. sanctions crippling Russia’s economy, Iran’s "irrational" military drills, and a push for regime change, while Giuliani warns Democrats’ defunding of ICE and other agencies risks national security during crises like wars or extreme weather.

Good evening.
This is Rudy Giuliani.
This is Lindell TV.
It's the Rudy Giuliani show.
And as you see behind me, it's President's Day.
And this is a holiday I don't like.
I don't mean I don't like the presidents.
I don't like honoring all the presidents on one day.
I mean, we could do that, but you got to give Washington and Lincoln their own days.
I'm sorry.
So Lincoln, as we pointed out to you last week, was February 12, 1809, by the way.
And I'm sorry, no, no.
Let's do it one more time.
Lincoln was February 12, 1809.
That's right.
And George Washington was February 22nd, 1732.
Now, you would think we'd have enough respect for the two of them to give them their own holidays.
Maybe I'm a creature of one here that we have too many holidays or we have too many.
But these, I mean, these are two presidents that if God hadn't created them and God hadn't kept them alive and God hadn't guided them into the positions they were in in Washington case, two positions, right?
I don't know if we'd be here today.
I don't know that another person could have won the Revolutionary War and kept it together, particularly in the early days when he had to deal with the freezing Hudson River, almost dying as he was crossing from New Jersey into Pennsylvania to get to Valley Forge.
Army almost eliminated several times, people not wanting to serve, every problem imaginable.
And he got us through and he defeated the greatest power on earth at the time, the United Kingdom, Britain, whatever they were called then.
No one believed it could be done.
I'm not sure they did.
And he did.
And it was a long, long, long, long campaign that you needed a man of tremendous faith, tremendous optimism in the face of everything that would tell you just the opposite.
And I don't, some people sometimes think we exaggerate Washington, but if you study the war and you say how many human beings that have lived on God's earth could have led their way through that, it may just be George Washington.
I don't know.
Now we come to Abraham Lincoln.
And Washington, only for purposes of the time.
I didn't mention the fact that he, he was the first president of the United States and set a standard that very few have met.
There were a couple of presidents that we could name along with Washington, but only a couple.
Most presidents fall very, very short of our first, and our first, of course, would generally hardly know what he was doing.
He had to set the standards and he had to be a man of tremendous integrity and tremendous principle.
And he overcame the the, the temptation of every Latin American dictator and would-be dictator, and even sometimes very, very good Democratic Democrat, Democratic presidents, meaning people who believe in democracy.
And then, all of a sudden, that lure of a third term came along, and I I know some who were really heroes that were tempted by it, but not George Washington.
And how?
How much did that help us escape the possibilities of a tyrant or a dictator or a?
And then eventually it became, you know, the constitution.
After Franklin Roosevelt did it, did a Biden on us, his in his fourth term.
He didn't know who the hell he was and he sold out eastern Europe.
Now, did he do that because of the Communist Influences administration, or did he do it because he was Waggy Waggy, I don't know.
I tend to think it's the first, I think it started uh earlier than that, but in any in any event, and and the precedents that he said and the decisions that he made, um set this whole country on the right course when it easily could have fallen apart in the first administration of the first person they selected for that enormously powerful position.
And then we have Abraham Lincoln, uh, a man who, who um probably never, had never had a decent day in his entire time as president.
As soon as he uh was elected, their secession began.
He was at war when he came into office and he was.
He could see the end of the war when he was assassinated, but he never had the luxury of even reconstruction, which we know he would have done much better than his, than his um uh successor, uh Johnson, probably was a better man and I don't know a better president, but a better man than he, than he was allowed to be.
But um Lincoln was another uh one-off in that.
I don't know is there anybody else that could have really handled that the way he did?
And what a tragedy that we lost him.
I I don't know that we would have had the tremendous problems of uh, of uh, segregation continuing and anger and turmoil and bitterness and racism and uh, if Lincoln had had survived and had been able to put through a more sensible reconstruction plan.
You know, it's a little, for very different reasons.
It's a little like the First World War caused the Second World War because the plan put together was so ignorant.
Well, that was really true of the way in which reconstruction was handled for all, so that the promise of emancipation which Abraham Lincoln gave, quite honestly, took um, some would say, until the Civil Rights Act or thereafter to be realized.
I mean some, some say it isn't realized today, but that's, that's politics, and it's also uh, communism and a lot of other things.
It's very much realized today, but it did take about a century to to be realized, and maybe more than that.
So a separate day for both of them.
So when we get to the 22nd we'll spend a little more time.
Is it?
Is it a weekday that we'll be on the 22nd, or it's close they're, they're two on a sunday mayor okay, then we'll do it on either on friday or monday, we'll give, we'll give.
We'll pick out a few observations on George Washington, as we did on Lincoln right uh, last week, great idea and some good painting.
We had some nice photos up of the two men and just, I mean I, you know it's very important that we remember these two great, great leaders.
I wish I could find historical support for the um for cutting down the Cherry Tree story and the Apple Story and some of those.
I mean they, they tended to go a little too far with Washington, but not not too far.
A lot of things about him.
I think that would surprise you, particularly during this era of trying to destroy these men that have gone on with the people who hate, hate this country, who now make up a lot of, a lot of them, a lot of the people in universities and television stations and positions where they have quite a quite a quite a voice.
Exhausted Lead Investigator00:14:48
So the Guthury case uh, continues to go on.
My, my um I, I don't know how to extend my sympathies and my uh, these poor people when when when, when you saw Nancy Guthrie I guess it was this morning huh yes yeah, having seen her on television numerous times, having seen her live a fair number of times right, you could see the pain and that what that woman is going through and you have to figure they all are going through that.
Um imagine, imagine the sister and brother-in-law who, who were suspected, if not still suspected, despite the sheriff's statement uh, what they would they have to be going through with also being well, let's put that up, we suspected I mean the sheriff, the I don't know honestly 2.4.
Please, god forgive me, but I I gotta be I. Could this sheriff be any worse?
So the sheriff did put out a statement mayor, clearing the.
Well, you know, that is so stupid.
It's so stupid because uh, he hasn't solved the case yet and you can see through that so easily that it's condescending right, I mean, the simple fact is that, after quite a bit of investigating, there is no evidence to implicate either the sister or the brother-in-law.
However, to definitively say it, when you can't actually say that the known dna that you have is definitively the dna of the murderer or kidnapper or abductor or whatever you are, is it a good assumption?
You're damn right, it's a good assumption.
Is it something on which you could base a conclusion?
No, unless you're really hiding something that we don't know.
But if the case is anywhere near where it appears to be, that statement is just a gratuitous statement and I and the family is smart enough to know he's he's um he's, I don't know what he's doing.
Then he says in the same breath, if not the same day, if not the same day he said it may, it will.
It could very well take a very long time to solve the case.
Well, I mean, you might as well tell the family, if it can take a long time to solve the case, that you are entertaining very strongly the possibility.
I'll get that picture down.
It looks like somebody docted it up.
He doesn't look like that.
He must have looked like that when he was 12.
This guy is like an embarrassment to law enforcement.
How could this family, important family, whatever, people say, well, oh, gosh, they're getting so much, so many breaks because they're important.
To have been stuck with this guy as the guy who was the chief investigator makes up for all the breaks.
It really does.
Because actually, in the first 12 hours of this investigation, we will never know the damage that he did by not handling the crime scene professionally.
We'll have no idea how much damage he did.
If there was a chance to solve this at a time in which you could say this was a real victory for the family and for law enforcement, that was it.
And you were consigned to his hands.
And it's quite obvious that he's a complete bumbler and press hound.
In the middle of all this, Denger granted a singular interview to a reporter.
I mean, he's, you can criticize him for engaging the press too much and giving out too little information, both.
But the most important parts of this are having screwed up the crime scene, which was unforgivable.
And again, a dimension that we will never know.
Appearing to be hiding things from the FBI.
I mean, what the hell are we talking about DNA analysis two weeks later?
I mean, this couldn't have been done.
Okay, DNA analysis takes a while.
Two weeks?
And the DNA they're coming up with, I mean, also, this is just another indication, but they found a glove, right?
Two miles away.
They don't know if the glove is the glove of either the killer or the attempted killer or the kidnapper or whatever he is, the suspect, the chief suspect.
It looks like it.
Well, also, you should know that the New York Post, in or about that same area, found three more gloves that they never picked up and never examined.
Two of which come very close to looking just like that, one of which is red and probably not the glove.
However, most observers, not all, concluded that he had multiple gloves on, which would also mean if that's the outer glove, you're not going to get DNA, probably.
Probably.
He may have put those gloves on when he had gloves on.
So you got to come up with as many gloves as you can.
Because that thing, that big thing that he has looks like it's a combination of two or three gloves.
Can we take a look at that, Ted?
I don't think I'm the...
If he loves?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, that could be.
So they're trying to say that glove matches that one.
But in the meantime, they found 16 others, right?
Yeah, well, you know, the press found some.
They didn't find them.
Others have brought them others.
Yeah, because they're there.
Let's see if I can find a group picture.
I'll tell you what.
Because they are too small a police department to handle an investigation of this magnitude.
They're too inexperienced a police department.
And they can make up for that if they had a great leader and they have a clown that's leading them.
And it's a tragedy.
It's an absolute tragedy.
Even now, it would be better to replace him.
I mean, to announce in the middle of this, you know, it may take a very long time to solve this.
Yes.
It's almost as, oh, oh, by the way, he's also very exhausted.
Did you know that?
It's like, is that the last thing you want to hear from the guy?
I mean, we all assume you're exhausted.
We all assume that, right?
Obviously.
I mean, I don't think I've ever heard a person handling a tough investigation saying, right.
I mean, we would, yes.
For some reason, maybe because the press has to prostitute themselves to him to get information, whatever little they get.
Yes.
They have to be very careful in criticizing him.
Maybe if they criticized him harder, the governor, who really is an awful governor, by the way, the governor, if the governor had any intelligence or courage, would have removed him.
I can't imagine the governor doesn't have the power to do it.
Most governors do.
It is still part of the executive branch.
Now, he's separately elected, but every state has emergency powers of removal.
You can take, usually, you can take investment.
An attorney general, or the attorney general of that state, I think is one of those who try to throw Trump off the ballot for her own privately determined insurrection, which is known as political prejudice of the worst kind.
So we don't have much of a mind there.
And she's the one that's holding my case and everything else open, even though it's been dismissed.
She hasn't dismissed it.
That's right.
I don't know.
I don't know.
And the judge doesn't have the ability, apparently, to bang her over the head and say it's dismissed.
Wow.
So you got a hell of a system there.
And the mayor says nothing.
We haven't even heard from the mayor of the town.
I don't even know who the ass.
That's a good point.
People that are politically accountable to the citizens don't say a damn thing.
And they're letting this clown go around telling us he's exhausted.
Maybe he should take a vacation.
You know, if he's that exhausted, maybe you could buy him a vacation somewhere on a boat and have him come back in about three months.
And somebody else could take over that knows what the hell they're doing, like the FBI.
And then giving the samples to another laboratory other than the FBI, unforgivable.
You're just not going to do better than the FBI for that.
Why would you make it more complex and not give your partners the evidence so they can integrate it into the investment?
You want to know why?
Because he's worried about this.
Who's going to control this?
When it's over, who's going to get the credit?
Well, you forgot something, Chris.
Nobody's getting any credit for this botchup.
So you're getting the blame.
Got anybody else you want to arrest that didn't do it?
Oh, probably loads of people you could arrest.
I would say he's breaking when it comes to your top 10, you know, your leadership top 10 points, Mayor.
He's breaking number three.
He's breaking number eight and definitely number 10.
Number three, stay calm under pressure.
Maintain control of emotions to prevent panic.
He's letting out the fact that he's tired, right?
He's telling us that he's tired.
Here I am.
I'm a lieutenant in charge of a Marine squadron, right?
Yeah.
Okay, guys, we got to take that big hill.
It's going to be the toughest battle of this war.
I am exhausted.
I am really exhausted.
Poor me.
Poor me.
I've been put through.
You can't imagine what I've been put through.
I mean, it is outrageous.
It isn't just, it's not funny.
It's outrageous that he would say that.
And if they had a governor in that state or an attorney general, both of whom should be fired also, they'd fire him.
I mean, just for the mere fact that we got a guy working on what appears to be, you know, the biggest focused investigation in the country who's too tired.
Right.
He's telling us, he's begging us to take him off.
If you have somebody doing a sensitive mission under your command and they tell you they're exhausted, what do you take them off, right?
Right.
Like immediately.
Right.
I can't imagine having to watch this play out, Mayor, as someone with the experience you have.
It could take years to find her.
So now let's contrast that with Nancy's statement this morning.
Can we see that?
Let's play Savannah Guthrie.
I mean, I'm sorry, gosh, oh, money.
Savannah's statement this morning.
You said that.
You said it right?
Yes, sir.
I said Nancy.
Oh, I didn't hear.
I heard you.
I said Nancy.
2.1.
I wanted to come on and it's been two weeks since our mom was taken and I just wanted to come on and say that we still have hope and we still believe.
And I wanted to say to whoever has her or knows where she is that it's never too late and you're not lost or alone and it is never too late to do the right thing.
And we are here.
And we believe.
And we believe in the essential goodness of every human being.
And it's never too late.
And we're back.
They deserve better than what they got.
Not because she's a Vanaguthri or a very famous person or anything, but because they're human beings.
And everyone deserves from law enforcement a 100% effort by capable people.
Well, this is a 100% effort.
And maybe all the rest of them are capable.
But the guy leading this is not a capable person.
He should not be in that position.
He sure as hell shouldn't be there when he tells us he's exhausted.
And he thinks it's going to take a long time to find her.
Things like that become self-fulfilling prophecies.
And I don't know what kind of morale the police under his leadership can have.
And they may be, and some are exceptional men and women.
But this, I mean, this would normally mean a pretty low morale situation.
And it is said that he has like chaos in his office.
So it's terrible.
You just think about this.
Terrible thing for him that had to happen there.
And it could have happened in any number of places in which you have excellent sheriffs, excellent chiefs, excellent political situation that would Move if something weren't done right.
Who knows?
She might be home by now.
If that were the case.
Right.
We don't know.
We don't know.
We don't know what.
Since we don't know how it happened, we can't look at.
We can't make any determinations about what was critical and what wasn't.
Right.
Well, we're going to take a short break and we will be right back.

Well, here we are.
Ready for the Lincoln Douglas debate.
No, that's Lincoln and Washington.
We should have put up.
I don't know if they have, we could find a Lincoln Douglas.
Lincoln Douglas.
We'll find one.
We'll find one, yeah.
Kim's Knowing Eyes00:07:20
Well, there they are.
We found an dignified, maybe you might say, yeah, yeah, but get the President's Day in, too.
It's good.
That's good.
A little further down.
Yeah.
Got the whole thing in.
Look at that.
There we are.
But again, this is a bit of a protest.
We would like to see a Washington Day and a Lincoln Day.
And then you can have a President's Day for everybody else.
And one of these days, I personally like to see a Reagan Day and a Trump Day, but I like it.
Well, once we get it, like when we get a nice two-thirds majority, House and Senate, we'll do Reagan and Trump.
I like it.
And we'll decree that Roosevelt should come down from, Franklin should come down from the top of Mount Rushmore because he gave away Eastern Europe.
All the Polish people should help me do that since many of them, many of them lost their lives as a result of that idiotic cave-in to Stalin.
So there's a sketch out.
I don't know if you've seen it, Ted.
Have you seen the sketch that was made by someone named Lois Gibson?
I don't know who I don't know who I don't know who asked for this.
So therefore, I don't know if it does any good to show it.
Lois Gibson, a sketch of the potential.
Lois Gibson claims to have helped in the apprehension of more than 750 criminals.
But I have no way of knowing, you know, I have no way of knowing how good she is.
And number two, she honestly would have no way of knowing how good this is.
This is her best, this is her best guess.
Here it is.
Here it is, if you want to look at it there.
What is he using?
Now, I mean, I don't know.
I would have thought of thought of him as a little bit less clean-cut looking.
Right.
A little older.
A little older.
Yep.
But I'm curious how she put that sketch together.
Like, what are the data points you used?
I have no idea.
We have a lot.
We have eyes, a body shape.
That's about it.
Yeah, eyes.
Yeah, you had.
You get the eyes and the mouth.
I don't know where you get the shape of the nose.
Right.
Maybe there's more to it than we know.
Maybe they, yeah, that's also a possibility.
They have in the corner what they think is what was available to her.
It's hard to see.
They have in the corner there what they think is available to her, Which would which would mean you'd get a pretty good you kind of see a faint outline of a nose there.
Does the family look usually?
I don't know if it's the, they don't say.
It says she's pieced it together.
Okay, I'd love to know how you would piece this together.
Using the surveillance footage of the masked man caught creeping around her home.
According to the artist, whose work has helped apprehend more than 750 criminals, the abductor has a wide head, thick eyebrows, medium length, and dark hair.
Now that I don't know how she knows.
You certainly can't see beyond a little hair on the forehead.
I'm not even sure I see that, but she apparently did.
But then the rest of it could be full, not full.
I mean, you just don't know.
But since there's nothing out there, if we catch this guy, we'll find out.
We will we will find out.
So in North in North Korea, they are for some reason having a lot of discussions about whether Kim Young Un's 13 year old daughter, who is Kim.
I might not be pronouncing this right, Jua.
J-U-A-E.
And Kim is the family name.
Now, she is 13.
And the reason there's all this speculation, he has taken her to various events, including military events.
And now they have very soon coming up a very big Congress, which they, which, for him to put out his, you know, the typical communist five-year plan.
The question is, is he going to bring her?
And that will indicate that she is his chosen successor.
Now, this is going to run, this is going to run into a problem with his sister, who is a member of the government, is very much involved, has accompanied him any number of times, and is extremely ambitious.
And I don't know that she wants her young niece to supplant her.
We'll have to see.
Now, do you know what happened with, you know what happened with him, right?
So his father put him in.
His father put him in, and it disappointed the father's brother quite a bit because he was very young when he was put in, not quite as young as the daughter, but so within a short period of time, good old Kim proved that he was ready to be dictator of North Korea and he killed his uncle.
Yep.
So now they're saying that's the, you're now looking at his sister, I think.
That's the daughter.
That's the daughter.
She's 13 in that.
She's kind of big for 13.
Right?
Or is he short?
Or is she standing on something?
No, he is short.
He is short.
They just say she's already his size.
Okay.
And you can always fix that.
And obviously she's already his size and height.
She's nowhere near his size and girth.
Kim likes to eat, they say.
Kim.
Yeah.
They describe him.
They were talking about the condition of his health.
They don't have any information about the conditions of his health other than they describe him as morbidly.
I hate that description.
Morbidly obese.
Doesn't morbid mean dead?
Dead.
Yeah, deadly.
Deadly obesity.
Morbidly obese.
Imagine if a doctor.
You know, if you're about 10 pounds overweight, you're morbidly obese.
Yeah, but I'm with you.
I don't like using that term.
You're telling someone.
I get it.
I get more upset when I see these people walking around who are morbidly skinny and they look like damn skeletons.
Fat.
Well, you know that one when I drop when we drive and I see particularly women and they look like their bones are showing and I want to go and give them food.
I'll give you a few bucks.
Go get a sandwich or something.
I mean, they got the bones coming out of the shoulders and the bones coming out of the face.
I'm just referring to men, the men here, right?
If I have a body who's getting women like that, but you have some men like that too that are morbidly skinny.
But fat.
If I have a friend who's gaining weight, I think it's nicer to call him fat than to call him morbidly obese.
I don't know.
You're getting fat, right?
Tom Hagen's Suicide Offer00:05:39
Unless you think he's a big sissy and you can handle him.
I wouldn't call him fat because he might punch you out.
Yeah, well, yeah, but it's a morbidly.
Oh, yeah, I'm fat and want to see.
Morbidly.
Okay, so maybe morbidly obese.
I don't know who you grew up with, but I went around calling the kids fat that I grew up with.
I get punched out more than I did.
Oh, come on, Mayor.
You gave it more than you took it as a kid, right?
I was very gentle.
Were you a fighter as a kid?
Yeah.
Really?
Were you?
Really?
I could see you being like, really?
You weren't.
I'm not going to talk about it.
Okay.
We got to get Father Placa.
I overcame that.
We got to get Father Placa over here.
I overcame it.
Robert Duval was a friend of mine.
You should know that.
Robert Duval was one of my supporters when I ran for president and gave a wonderful party for me at his farm in Virginia, which was a beautiful, which was and is a beautiful farm.
And then it came and campaigned with me several times and introduced me.
And I got to know him then.
And what a fine, fine man.
A really, really intelligent, nice man.
Now, we know what a great actor he is.
Before I met him, he was, I mean, from the time of, well, certainly from the time of the Godfather.
But you go back and he played a great role.
He played a he played a great.
I'm trying to think of his early roles.
There's a couple that I remember because he was in the Godfather.
When he was in The Godfather, I'm looking here.
I mean, it was in The Godfather.
I recognized him.
You know, I recognized him as having seen him in movies.
Right.
Did To Kill a Mockingbird come before Godfather?
Right.
So, you know, Robert Duvall, he died at 95.
So, of course, he had a very long time.
Am I correct?
To kill a mockingbird came.
To kill a mockingbird, he played the disturbed guy.
And To Kill a Mockingbird, yes, he played Boo Radley.
1962.
That was 1962.
Wow.
Wow, wow, wow.
Other roles in the 60s included Bullet with Steve McQueen.
I remember that.
I remember that.
I remember 1969.
John Wayne.
And of course, in the 70s, he was a major Frank Burns in MASH.
In what?
MASH, which is, I think, considered still the longest running or most popular television TV show.
You've heard of MASH?
Yeah, but I don't think I ever saw it.
Yeah, I didn't even know it was like the military at the hospital.
Every one of those movies I saw.
And then Tom Hay, he was Tom Hagen.
That's where I know him.
The Godfather.
So if we want to find a scene there, you know what I think is the best.
A lot of people think the scene is, you know, I have only one client and he's very, very anxious to get bad news right away.
But the one that I like best is when he goes and sees Four Fingers and tells him and tells him basically suggests that if he commits suicide, his whole family will be taken care of.
And it would be better if he committed suicide.
And he gives him the analogy of the Roman generals.
He says, you know, you were always big on Roman history because a lot of the mafia organizers were very pretentious.
And they thought they were going to organize the mafia like Roman Legions.
Roman Legions, my ass.
So Tom sort of picks up on that when he goes and sees him and says.
We'll play that next hour.
We're going to get it.
I think that's one of the great, that's one of the great scenes.
Another one, if you, for pure acting, is when this could be in two rather than one, when Michael tells him he's out, that he's not going to be part of what they're going to do now in fighting back against the people who are trying to destroy the family.
And he says, you're out because I want you to be a clean lawyer.
So you can take the family out of it in Las Vegas.
And he's very, very upset.
But then when Michael gets into real trouble, who does he put in charge?
Hagen.
Hagen in charge.
Even though Hagen's not Italian and Hagen is a step, is a brother.
And toward the end of Godfather One, you can see there's another great scene in which Michael, played by Al Pacino and Tom, played by him.
He says, you know, you always really were a brother.
And there's a little tear in his eye.
And he says, I always wanted to hear that from you, Michael.
It's really very, very sad.
It's really very, very, very, very sad.
It's also very indicative how they make these people into human beings that you relate to, even though they're damn murderers.
Right.
That's a good movie.
That's a great film when they can do something like that.
I also remember the movie where he played the evangelical preacher.
Rogue Ships Challenge Embargo00:11:18
Wasn't there a movie where he played an evangelical preacher?
Oh, my goodness.
It was fabulous.
I mean, again, because he lived to 95.
I know he was nominated for that, for that one.
The natural, right?
He was a co-star in The Natural with Robert Redford.
More recently, well, Days of Thunder, the original was 1990.
Go look for the one where he plays.
Evangelical minister, AI, I'll give it to you right away.
Right, right.
So there'll be another meeting tomorrow on, all we have are meetings, it seems like.
Be another meeting tomorrow.
There'll be two of them going on, so you're going to have to go back and forth, right?
They're going to meet with Russia, United States, and Ukraine are going to meet over ending that war, which the president has now very, very, very, very discreetly.
A lot of people were complaining that the president wasn't pounding Putin hard enough.
Very discreetly in the last three or four weeks.
A lot of maximum pressure has been applied to Putin.
And he's having a lot of trouble.
He's having a lot of trouble internally because he doesn't have the support for the war that one would think he would have.
And number two, he's getting a lot of pressure internally because our embargo, our sanctions are getting tougher and tougher.
For example, cutting out Venezuela was a real killer for him.
Cutting out Cuba.
So now the Russians are claiming they're going to send a tanker with oil to Cuba in violation of our embargo and our sanctions.
We're going to have to see what happens to that.
But thanks to sanctions, for example, India, that was being very, very non-compliant, has over the last month and a half stopped buying Russian oil.
And they were number two on the list.
And China's economy is such that Russia's got to sell it to them at a price where Russia's not making any money.
Right.
Right.
So that's actually wash.
And Russia is running very, very low on foreign exchange, which means their people are getting hungry.
I mean, the last time we had a turnover in government in Russia is when people were too hungry.
And is Russia, and is it worth anything?
Where are they able to send their natural gas?
Where are they able to currently export this stuff?
Are they sending it to Cuba?
And if they are, or is that more political?
They are claiming, they haven't sent anything to Cuba in two months.
They're sending a ship.
They're sending a ship to Cuba, which they're announcing for humanitarian aid.
And they're saying under international law, we can't interfere with it because it's for humanitarian aid.
And we're saying that if you do that, we will double all your tariffs, which is what we do with anybody attempting to trade with Cuba.
We don't have an embargo in the sense of we have ships there stopping them from coming in.
Well, and they don't have an economic embargo.
And what do you make of the fact that Iran's holding military exercises tonight?
Well, today.
What I make of that is they are completely insane, which is why they can't have nuclear weapons.
Here they are, a country that has surrounding them probably the greatest naval force in history.
It makes the Spanish Armada look like a couple of playboats in the pond.
We've already, without any doubt, shown that they are completely defenseless.
What we have there could take Iran out three times over.
And he's shown that if you go too far, he's going to do it.
Right.
But also explain to the audience.
So what they're doing instead is challenging.
What do you make of that?
Is Iran, what are they insane?
What I make of it is the reason why from a long time ago, the conclusion was they can have nuclear weapons.
Nobody should have them really, but you got to count on people being sane who have nuclear weapons, otherwise they can destroy the world.
Right.
You have to operate.
This is the Ronald Reagan fear.
Ronald Reagan's fear, which is why he thought nuclear weapons should eventually be banned, was that it all works if you have rational people in charge.
Nobody wants to destroy the world.
So it becomes mutually assured destruction, which he says is a very immoral way to assure human life and safety, because all you need is a madman.
One madman, world goes.
If that's not, this is a, I mean, what they appear to be is a pretty good imitation of a madman.
These decisions, the decisions they make are not are not rational.
Right.
I mean, anybody else in that position would live to fight another day.
And given the desire that the world, particularly Europe has, and the pressure they're putting on the president to not get into a war, they could probably make a fairly decent deal for themselves.
But they're not.
And not ask.
Look, and I mean.
Why are they?
I mean, do they really think that if they have drills, they're going to discourage us?
Well, that's my question, Mayor.
And look, maybe I shouldn't ask this because you're so close to the boss or to the president.
But how, I mean, I can't imagine the president's being told this tonight and he's too happy with Iran.
The president figured out what he's doing here about four months ago.
And we don't know exactly what he's doing, but it's not.
Well, if you're telling me that, that doesn't.
Because I can see he doesn't get, he doesn't go up and down emotionally about any of this.
You know, he finds out that they're not complying and he says, well, if they continue to do that, basically we're going to have to put them into the next world.
And then he keeps putting more ships there and more arms there and more ships there.
And he keeps sticking to the same thing.
And he doesn't get angry.
He doesn't get happy.
So the plan is there.
I mean, the plan is there as to when we're going to do it.
And I think the Ayatollah is running out of running room.
So maybe Iran's doing this because they have to, because they literally feel they need to have their military forces at the ready and they need to train.
So this isn't for show.
This isn't for posturing.
They're literally getting their military prepared because they too have intelligence that tells them.
Well, if they're going to do live exercises, I would tell them to save their arms.
You better save everything you got, pal.
Well, that's a problem they ran into when they were able to get a few missiles through Israel.
And you want to put a critical part of your Navy on the water?
It'd be pretty easy to find.
Boom, boom, boom.
There must be a domestic element.
You get rid of that group.
You get rid of that group pretty quickly, right?
Next hour, stick with us over on X at 8.20, I believe maybe 8.30.
We're going to have a great guest to talk about this.
I don't think they have options.
They just don't seem to accept it.
Talks to be Zoom tomorrow?
They don't have any options.
They have no options.
And I think the president is just giving them more and more rope to hang themselves.
And remember, on Friday, the president, that's as close as he's come to calling for regime change, right?
He said.
Yeah, quote, I would have taken that very, very seriously.
I don't think he's ever said regime change.
It might be the best thing for Iran is what he said.
And that's as close as he's been to saying guys got to go.
Well, Shura has three demands.
Hakeem Jeffries has 10.
So they seem to be somewhat apart.
And how ridiculous is this now?
Shutting down not just ICE, but shutting down the Coast Guard at a time in which we've got wars we have to contain, and he's shutting down the Coast Guard.
They're shutting down the Coast Guard.
They're shutting down the Transportation Security Administration, which will affect air flights.
They're shutting down FEMA.
better not have a another big ice storm.
I was gonna say I mean so they want to kill people And why?
Because they want to now, the last time they wanted to put more money into the crooked Obama program, Obama, Obamacare, which has been proven to be about 50% corrupt.
So whatever money they were looking for, 50%, was to, for all the kickback schemes they have all over the country, like the one they have in Minneapolis.
Well, that one didn't work.
So now they want to put money into not allowing ICE to enforce the law or to make it as difficult as possible.
So the 1,000% increase in the attack on ICE agents becomes 2,000 or 3,000.
And they finally get a killing, which is what they're really after.
I mean, they really are.
Right.
And they almost are probably wishing for something to happen.
And Schumer is a pathetic individual.
They're just a pathetic, he's a pathetic creature.
Did he announce that he's not seeking, do we know, re-election or something?
No, he's so afraid of AOC.
And then, you know, if you come over now, because we're going to move over to Ags, AOC has added to her idiocy file another one.
So we'll play the old one and we'll play the new one that she gave us in Munich.
She has convinced all of Europe that she's a ding-dong nitwit.
Right.
But I mean, everybody in America knew that anyway.
So we'll be over on X very shortly.
And we'll look at the Ding Dong Nitwit as well as what's going on in Iran.
We'll really get up to date.
We'll really get up to date on that.
And also the tragedy of my former home where I lived all my life and was the mayor, the tragedy of what's going on there.
I just never thought that this could happen.
I mean, I lived through some mayors that were terrible, awful political figures that were crooked as hell.
But this is beyond description.
And I don't know how, if you're the governor, you'll let him just kill people the way he's doing.
I'm talking about Mandani, and I'll explain to you how he's killing people.
I mean, they're just dying in the streets.
Wouldn't have died under any mayor in the last 40 or 50 years, not just me.
