What's up people? | |
| It is November 25th, 2020, one day before Thanksgiving. | ||
| I'm Dave Rubin, and this is the Rubin Report Correct Message. | ||
| I just realized as I looked to the side, I looked at my camera for a second on the screen over there, I'm dressed like it's the summer today. | ||
| This is like I'm going to a cocktail party on the roof in Beverly Hills. | ||
| Well, I should be in some sort of more festive fall thing, but I guess I'll have to make up For that, next week I'll do a little more of a fall | ||
| outfit some darker colors, maybe some browns and some oranges. | ||
| Right now I look like I'm off to Cabo or something for a very important business meeting. | ||
| Hey, real quick before we do anything else, I want to address that two days ago we showed you a video that I said to people I wanted to source better and we weren't exactly sure what was going on. | ||
| But it was a video of police officers assaulting somebody over violating curfew. | ||
| And I said that according to the Twitter account it came from, it was from California. | ||
| But if we had any more information that we would address it. | ||
| And I'm not above being honest with you guys. | ||
| Actually, that's exactly how I want to be. | ||
| So it turns out that that video is from October in Wisconsin. | ||
| So it's just worth mentioning. | ||
| But although I had a feeling that maybe it wasn't exactly what it was, I thought it was worth showing to you guys because the idea of people being assaulted and attacked by police officers for violating curfew in America is scary, whether it happens in October. | ||
| in Wisconsin or whether it happens in November in California. | ||
| So anyway, just putting that out there for public information. | ||
| And before we get to today's stories, yes, tomorrow guys is Thanksgiving. | ||
| That means that right now as I speak, as you watch this, There are gangs of roving criminals going to other people's houses, getting into cars, sometimes crossing state lines. | ||
| You hear me? | ||
| State lines to go visit friends, family members. | ||
| New acquaintances that just happened to be invited to their house to celebrate Thanksgiving. | ||
| There are criminals amongst us here in America. | ||
| People who will literally, literally eat turkey and stuffing and mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce with other people. | ||
| in someone else's home. | ||
| They're preparing to do that. | ||
| And in many cases traveling to those people right now. | ||
| There are people not just doing this via car. | ||
| There are people getting on airplanes to go visit loved ones to celebrate the holiday tomorrow. | ||
| And we're just going to sit here and let it happen. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| What has happened to America? | ||
| What has happened I don't know. | ||
| It's scary stuff, so I just wanted to address that up front, that most of us are now outlaws on the run from the government because you're probably gonna have Thanksgiving with someone that doesn't live in your house, and this is how stupid everything has become. | ||
| But speaking of stupidity, we're gonna do a couple stories today, and then I just wanna give you guys a nice Thanksgiving message, and then we're not doing a show tomorrow, we're not doing a show on Friday, we're not doing a show Over the weekend, I want to give my guys a little time off. | ||
| It's time to be thankful, and I hope that you're going to be with family and friends tomorrow and over the weekend, and maybe we can all avoid a little bit of the political madness and the current events for a couple days. | ||
| So the stories we're covering today, Bill de Blasio, who's probably the worst mayor in all of America, and that's tough because, you know, | ||
| we have cities like Portland, Seattle, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. | ||
| He has COVID-19 checkpoints going up at bridges right now. | ||
| If any of you saw "I Am Legend," | ||
| I tweeted out the video this morning. | ||
| Remember when Will Smith was trying to get his family out of New York City? | ||
| They had checkpoints at bridges in New York City. | ||
| Did not go that well for Will Smith and family, so we're going to talk about that. | ||
| Then I'm going to show you two clips, one from NBC News and one from ABC News. | ||
| They are super duper excited about this Biden administration, and they are just so happy to be doing journalism about people that they love and they can't contain their | ||
| happiness. | ||
| They're even coordinating their language around the happiness that they all have. | ||
| It's very, very exciting. | ||
| Then two more quick stories. | ||
| One, this incredible, absolutely freaking staggeringly, mind-blowingly phenomenal video | ||
| out of the United Arab Emirates where Avi Berkowitz, who works for the Trump administration | ||
| and had something to do with the deals that are causing actual peace in the Middle East. | ||
| Well now they've got Israeli fruit in the United Arab Emirates and he takes a video | ||
| at a store and they've got the flags of the countries. | ||
| It's just incredible and I'm guessing you haven't seen the video because although it | ||
| went wild on Twitter and amongst the right-wing scary conservatives, it doesn't really fit | ||
| the narrative that Trump might have done something. | ||
| Good for the world. | ||
| So you're not going to see it on mainstream. | ||
| And then finally, Governor Kate Brown. | ||
| Well, she's got a Thanksgiving video that I saw this morning, basically telling you to uninvite everybody to your Thanksgiving. | ||
| And I thought it would be worth seeing to show how hysterically psychotic these people are. | ||
| And then I'll wish you guys all Thanksgiving. | ||
| But before we get to any of that, guys, this holiday season will undoubtedly be like no other. | ||
| There is no doubt about that. | ||

| That's Ancestry.com slash Reuben. | ||
| And now back to me. | ||
| Okay, so yeah. | ||
| Brought it up already, but criminals. | ||
| I mean, I'm talking about far-right gangs of criminals, people. | ||
| Right now, they're traveling. | ||
| You might be traveling right now. | ||
| You might be in a car watching this on your phone, traveling. | ||
| clandestine to go have turkey with your grandmother, you sick freak. | ||
| Okay, you might be one of the people doing this. | ||
| Well, Bill de Blasio, the mayor of New York City, the far left lunatic who's ruined New York City and all of my family members have escaped New York City already wisely. | ||
| A city that I spent most of my adult life in, that I absolutely loved, the cultural and in many ways, not just cultural, the political. | ||
| I think you could argue political also, not just DC, but like the center of the world in many ways. | ||
| This man has helped destroy it. | ||
| And now he's going to have COVID checkpoints at bridges into New York City to catch and find violators. | ||
| of his travel ban. | ||
| I've got a couple of quotes here from just the news. | ||
| Under orders of Mayor Bill de Blasio, New York City will have vehicle checkpoints | ||
| manned by law enforcement officers at key bridges and crossings | ||
| to strictly enforce travel quarantine over the Thanksgiving holiday. | ||
| The city's regulations mandate that travelers either quarantine for 14 days | ||
| or take a COVID-19 test to prove that they don't have the virus. | ||
| Violations of self-quarantine will be enforced and may carry fines of $1,000 to $2,000, according to the mayor's office. | ||
| Okay, you guys, I think we probably share a similar sentiment on just these hysterically overreaching, I would argue at this point, anti-constitutional authoritarian lockdowns that they are doing. | ||
| The idea that you cannot travel freely in the United States, that you cannot be trusted to say if you live in New York City. | ||
| I mean, think about it this way, when they're talking about the bridges of New York City, so if you're in New York City, And you want to travel out to New York City, you're probably going to Long Island, you might be going to Westchester, Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, like that's, you know, and then there's some obviously some states further than that. | ||
| But you're doing like the tri-state area kind of thing. | ||
| And most likely you're going to family. | ||
| The idea that the government and this lunatic mayor thinks that you can't make the right decisions for your family, so that if you get in the car with your family, and then go to somebody's house and decide to have To celebrate, actually, the most important American holiday with members of your family or friends, and that you can't be trusted to do it responsibly or whatever way you feel you should, and that that then gives them a right to have checkpoints on our bridges. | ||
| Like, guys, if you don't see it already, I don't know what to tell you, but this is not about COVID at this point. | ||
| They are testing to see how far they can push you. | ||
| What else can we have lockdowns for? | ||
| What else can we have Checkpoints forged. | ||
| Can I see your papers? | ||
| Remember when seeing papers, that was a bad thing in Nazi Germany. | ||
| Remember that? | ||
| Again, and I say it every time because I know people want to misquote me and misinterpret what I say, that is not to diminish the reality of COVID-19. | ||
| 99% of people, 97.5 to 99% of people get better. | ||
| We know we've got these vaccines coming. | ||
| The idea that we are letting the governments run crazy with this stuff is absolutely insane. | ||
| They also said, there's a couple other points here, the New York City Sheriff said that the sheriff's office will be conducting spot checks when out-of-state buses drop people off. | ||
| So if grandma got on a bus to come visit you, she's also going to get questioned when she gets off that bus. | ||
| That seems good. | ||
| Oh, and Governor Cuomo, he wanted everybody to cancel all their plans. | ||
| Then it turned out that he was going to celebrate Thanksgiving with his 89-year-old mother. | ||
| Who he doesn't live with, then he got shamed, and now he's saying he's just gonna work all day. | ||
| Yeah, work, right. | ||
| You're the governor. | ||
| You don't have anything to do. | ||
| Come on, fool. | ||
| And, oh, well, now, actually, maybe this has been even updated since I last looked at it. | ||
| Now he's saying that maybe his mother, his 89-year-old mother, and his two kids will come to his place up in Albany. | ||
| So I'm actually unclear about that. | ||
| But here's one for ya. | ||
| For everybody that, takes a picture of a well-known mayor or governor, a mayor of a major city or a governor breaking their own rules. | ||
| If you can get a picture of it, I'll give you 500 bucks. | ||
| I'll do that up to, say, 2,000 bucks. | ||
| So four people that can find a picture. | ||
| You find me a picture of Gavin Newsom with other people outside of his family or Bill de Blasio outside his family or Cuomo or any of these clowns. | ||
| I'll throw in 500 bucks per picture that you take, as long as it's all confirmed and good to go and not breaking any laws. | ||
| Don't break into anyone's homes or anything like that, please. | ||
| But these people are all frauds. | ||
| We know they're going to celebrate holidays in ways that they're telling you not to celebrate them. | ||
| And of all years that we ever needed to be thankful, right, and to be around family, My own family's Thanksgiving is messy this year because of age and people not wanting to travel and a whole bunch of stuff. | ||
| We're all dealing with this, and if there was ever a time you needed to sit around the table and hash some stuff out, now's the time to do that. | ||
| I'm also seeing all these think pieces in The New York Times and these other places about how to avoid Talks at Thanksgiving and don't talk about politics and blah blah blah. | ||
| And it's like, well, you guys have made politics a religion. | ||
| My family, I write about this in my book. | ||
| I mean, we grew up arguing about politics at the table, but it was always civil. | ||
| And then at the end, dessert was served and everybody was fine. | ||
| We could use more of that. | ||
| We could use more face-to-face talk. | ||
| So we'll just leave all of our communication to Twitter because that seems like it'll be sane. | ||
| So anyway, do what you think is right for you and your family, and I have a feeling that everything will be okay. | ||
| But let's talk about our deeply corrupt, and potentially at this point, state-run media. | ||
| Because I saw these two clips yesterday, one's from NBC and one's from ABC, and I think you'll find the language that the two anchors use, in this case it's Martha Raddatz at ABC, and it is Andrea Mitchell at NBC. | ||
| There's an interesting choice of words and the way they frame these new Biden administration picks. | ||
| And I think you're going to see, well, it goes without saying, they're treating this a little bit differently than they treated the previous administration. | ||
| But let's do Andrea Mitchell first. | ||
| Let's listen to Andrea Mitchell discussing Biden's new administration picks, his cabinet. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| That's just one little bite there. | ||
| And I guess on surface value, if you just listen to it, it doesn't sound that bad. | ||
| These are people, this is a team who's gonna tell me, this team will tell me what I need to know, | ||
| not what I want to know. | ||
| That is a big change. | ||
| All right, that's just one little bite there, and I guess on surface value, if you just listen to it, | ||
| it doesn't sound that bad, but if you unpack it, those 12 or 15 words she said, | ||
| it does sound a little worse because they're not gonna be political. | ||
| That is rather incredible. | ||
| The President of the United States, the incoming President of the United States, is putting people in his administration who are not political, although their jobs are completely political. | ||
| These are political positions chosen by a politician to figure out the political laws that we will live under. | ||
| You see why this is silly? | ||
| But these people It's not going to be like Trump. | ||
| They're not going to tell him what he wants to hear. | ||
| They're going to tell him the truth. | ||
| But Orange Man Bad did it the other way. | ||
| And not only that, but they're not even political, these people. | ||
| They're gods. | ||
| They're just benevolent public servants who live to serve, and they have no political beliefs, and they're above it all, and they're working for Joe Biden. | ||
| It's so wonderful. | ||
| And if you think that's odd, now watch ABC's Martha Raddatz. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This is about the least flashy team you could possibly get. | |
| They are deeply experienced. | ||
| They are humble and they are lifelong public servants. | ||
| When I look at that group up there, and let's put John Kerry aside because as we know he was the Democratic nominee for president once, but they are not political. | ||
| They are just career people. | ||
| They have worked together for many years. | ||
| I remember Jake Sullivan at the side of Hillary Clinton when she was Secretary of State. | ||
| Oh, Raddatz. | ||
| all the time, and as they say, they really do reflect America. | ||
| Oh, raddits, raddits, you beat Andrea Mitchell there with so much nonsense in so little time. | ||
| Deeply experienced, humble, lifelong public servants, and guess what, guys, you're not gonna believe this. | ||
| They're not political. | ||
| They're not political people. | ||
| They're being chosen to do jobs that are purely political things, right? | ||
| They're not in. | ||
| They're in the private sector. | ||
| They're in the public sector. | ||
| They didn't earn these jobs. | ||
| They're being selected for these jobs by the guy that is the supposed incoming president. | ||
| But these people are not political. | ||
| They're also humble and decent and good, and it's just all so wonderful. | ||
| She goes on to say that Jake Sullivan, this guy, he's so good and humble and not political that he was always next to Hillary Clinton when she was Secretary of State. | ||
| I guess she was political as Secretary of State. | ||
| The guy that was right next to her the entire time, he was completely apolitical. | ||
| Anyway, you see why this is just nonsense? | ||
| This is what state-run media sounds like. | ||
| It really is. | ||
| It's a whitewashing of truth. | ||
| They lie to your face in a way that kind of makes you feel good about, oh, the new people aren't gonna be political and they'll be in charge and they're just humble public servants. | ||
| They're not like those evil, mean Republicans who do everything for politics and who are mean and blah, blah, blah. | ||
| These are humble people. | ||
| They live on farms and it's like, it's such, Epic nonsense. | ||
| And I suspect, I don't watch a lot of Chinese TV, but I suspect that if you were to hear about the way that Chinese TV fawns over Chinese politicians, I'm going to guess it's something like that. | ||
| And what you need to understand is that, and prove me wrong, Andrea Mitchell, if you're watching, Andrea Mitchell is a Democrat. | ||
| And Martha Raddatz, prove me wrong if you're watching, Martha Raddatz is a Democrat. | ||
| And all of the people that you get your mainstream news from are Democrats. | ||
| It just is. | ||
| As I said the other day, do you think Wolf Blitzer, Jake Tapper, Don Lemon, Chris Cuomo, Brian Stelter, the entire lineup at CNN. | ||
| Are they all Democrats? | ||
| Of course they are. | ||
| Now people will say to me, but Dave, what about Fox News? | ||
| Yes, Fox News. | ||
| First off, they're telling you. | ||
| Does Tucker Carlson hide what he is? | ||
| Does Sean Hannity hide what he is? | ||
| By the way, those are on the opinion side of things, where CNN does just a much worse job blending news and opinion. | ||
| It's like, is Don Lemon a news guy or an opinion guy? | ||
| But anyway, the point is, we are going to see so much of this sort of thing where everything will be juxtaposed for four years. | ||
| This is assuming Biden becomes president, and I'm still not sure that's going to happen. | ||
| But for four years, we saw people who always said yes, and they were corrupt, and they only were out for themselves. | ||
| And now we have angels who live for you, the people, you see, because they are the ones who are here for you. | ||
| They're not political. | ||
| They're wonderful, magical, unicorn-like creatures. | ||
| Oh, lordy, lordy people, our work is cut out for us. | ||
| All right, let's move on to story number three. | ||
| This is really incredible. | ||
| I saw this. | ||
| This is absolutely Staggeringly incredible. | ||
| Oh, and I should reference actually that one of the things from the previous story, because it blends us right into this so perfectly, is that she also mentions Martha Raddatz in the previous thing. | ||
| She mentions John Kerry, right? | ||
| Now, John Kerry, who was Secretary of State under Obama, did nothing. | ||
| John Kerry has never accomplished anything. | ||
| He lost as president, the nominee, years ago. | ||
| He did that against George W. Bush. | ||
| But he's never really accomplished anything other than he married a Heinz, right? | ||
| So he's got great access to ketchup. | ||
| If you need ketchup, you go to John Kerry. | ||
| And also he's had a tremendous amount of Botox. | ||
| So if you need Botox advice or you need access to large quantities of ketchup, you should talk to John Kerry. | ||
| But besides that, he's never done anything good. | ||
| He's never really accomplished anything. | ||
| And as a matter of fact, there's an incredible video. | ||
| Maybe we'll play it for you next week. | ||
| We should have grabbed it for today. | ||
| There's an incredible video of a couple of years ago, where John Kerry is going on and on and on about Middle East peace, and it must be done with the Israelis and Palestinians first. | ||
| You can't go to these other countries first. | ||
| And literally everything he said is wrong. | ||
| Everything he has said is proven wrong, as all of these peace deals Come and there has been no war in essence in the last four years and everything else. | ||
| I mention all of that because now our next story is this is Avi Berkowitz who works for the Trump campaign and was part of, along with Jared Kushner and a couple other people, helping push these deals with the United Arab Emirates and with Sudan and we're seeing some really amazing things happen. | ||
| So Avi posted this video. | ||
| This is from the United Arab Emirates and it's truly staggering. | ||
| And yet, I'm guessing you didn't see this on mainstream media. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay, friends, you have to see that. | |
| Right now, I'm in the middle of the fresh fruits and vegetables market in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates. | ||
| See what they put in front of the store? | ||
| The flag of Israel, the flag of the UAE together, full of fruits. | ||
| But wait until you see that. | ||
| You can see they put Israeli product, see, with the flag of Israel on it. | ||
| You can buy oranges and avocado and other stuff with the flag of Israel. | ||
| I'm just thinking about all these BDS activists who want to boycott Israel from Europe, from the United States. | ||
| And to see an Arab country who is giving the answer by bringing Israeli products with Israeli flags. | ||
| Wait to see the avocado. | ||
| And the dates. | ||
| And to see the people are coming and buying. | ||
| And it's in the front of the store. | ||
| Not on the backstage, in the front of the store. | ||
| That's the answer that an Arab country is giving to all these BDS activists around the world who are calling to boycott Israel. | ||
| This is the answer, guys. | ||
| You want to buy oranges? | ||
| Just come. | ||
| Come to the United Arab Emirates to buy it. | ||
| Amazing. | ||
| That's how you make peace, guys. | ||
| You make peace by having these exchanges of commerce, by trading embassies and ambassadors and things like that. | ||
| This is completely against what John Kerry said. | ||
| It's completely against what all the experts have said over the years. | ||
| By the way, the same exact experts who are now all being imported That's the seeds of peace. | ||
| I know this is very upsetting to Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, but yeah, peace can happen, people. | ||
| that they would have the Israeli flag there with the Jewish star and the whole thing, | ||
| and nobody's burning it down. | ||
| There's nobody attacking anything, nobody vandalizing anything. | ||
| That's the seeds of peace. | ||
| I know this is very upsetting to Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, but yeah, peace can happen, people. | ||
| It actually can happen, and it's happening right in front of our faces. | ||
| And hopefully, well, hopefully we're not just gonna throw it away with whatever happens | ||
| over the next couple of years. | ||
| Oh, before I get to our final story about Thanksgiving, which is an important one, | ||
| I realized that in my Bill de Blasio bit about locking down the city and the checkpoints | ||
| and everything, I wanted to put a particularly special message out there to Bill de Blasio, | ||
| because yesterday, I put a very personal, important message out there to Gavin Newsom, | ||
| and many of you were very excited about it. | ||
| It's important, a lot of people shared it. | ||
| So I do wanna put a message out there to Bill de Blasio, so here we go. | ||
| Bill de Blasio, mayor of New York City. | ||
| Well, This message goes out to you, and I want to be very careful with my words here. | ||
| So, Bill de Blasio, go fuck yourself. | ||
|
unidentified
|
[laughs] | |
| One more time. | ||
| [BLANK_AUDIO] | ||
| Bill de Blasio, go fuck yourself. | ||
| All right, I felt good about that. | ||
| Now, let's move on to Thanksgiving, people, because I know you're going to celebrate it in the ultimate act of defiance. | ||
| You might hug people, you might kiss people, you might sing with people. | ||
| Well, Oregon Governor Kate Brown, she doesn't want you doing any of that. | ||
| She wants you to sit home alone miserably, as I assume she will, although if you find out that she doesn't and you see her leaving her house, or doing anything publicly on Thanksgiving. | ||
| If you take a picture of it, as long as you don't break any law, I'll give you 500 bucks for it. | ||
| Well, she posted this video on her Twitter account today. | ||
|

|
[music] | |
| Oregon Governor Kate Brown, go fuck yourself. | ||
| [BLANK_AUDIO] | ||
| I think we're onto something here, I really do. | ||
| Forget Kate Brown, forget everything else. | ||
| I want to just give you a little Thanksgiving message, which is that I hope that whatever you're doing, that it makes you happy, that it gives you some joy. | ||
| I hope you're going to eat great food and drink great wine. | ||
| I hope you're going to be around people that you love. | ||
| I hope you're going to escape politics for a moment and just enjoy yourself and be thankful for the spectacularly wonderful freedoms that we still have in America that are tenuous freedoms at best, because they feel like they're being eroded right now. | ||
| But it is up to us to protect those freedoms and fight for those freedoms. | ||
| And perhaps more than anything else, just personally for me, I want to thank you, people watching this, every single person watching this, you have given me an ability to do what I believe has given me purpose and joy and happiness in this world. | ||
| And I love doing what I'm doing. | ||
| And I think in some ways I've perhaps helped some of you figure out what you think of this mess too. | ||
| So it's an even exchange, man, we're good. | ||
| And I'm just so thankful for all of you and for my team here and for living in this great country. | ||
| And I'm going to keep fighting for it. | ||
| And I hope you will as well. | ||
| And, as I said, no show tomorrow, no show Friday. | ||
| Enjoy the weekend. | ||
| Have a great time. | ||
| Eat lots of food. | ||
| Gain a couple pounds. | ||
| Drink lots of booze. | ||
| Whatever you want to do. | ||
| You want to smoke a little something. | ||
| It's all good. | ||
| This is America, baby. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Thanks, everybody. | ||
| Enjoy your Thanksgiving. |
