Music playing
Yeah, it was an intense experience.
You know, I just did the work.
Watched a lot of people.
anthony fauci
Spent time with them, observed them.
unidentified
Watched all the stuff they did.
It's a crazy world, crazy world.
Somebody's gotta have the same views.
It's a crazy world.
It's a crazy world.
Somebody's gotta have the same views.
All right, you very fine people.
dave rubin
We have a very fine program for you.
This is The Rubin Report.
I'm Dave Rubin.
It's November 12th in the year 2024.
We are live streaming on Rumble, on YouTube, on Locals.
We've got a post-game show at rubinreport.locals.com.
And there, ladies and gentlemen, is a lot of good stuff happening in the world right now.
We are less than one week from the election, and already in the six days, the cabinet, the team is coming together.
Trump is making, I think, broadly good picks across the board.
There's little fights here and there, and people are going to say what they want, but everything's kind of looking good.
and outside of just the pure political part of it, of course, is the fact that everyone I meet from Rolando, my landscaper today, love you, Rolando, chatting with him this morning, talking about how America is back.
We all can feel it.
The rebooted 80s are on the way and good things are happening.
And then yesterday, we got some more great news.
This is from Charlie Kirk.
Breaking decision desk officially makes the call that Republicans have won at least 218 seats and will control the House of Representatives.
The Trump trifecta is official.
So that's right, guys.
Donald Trump not only will be the president of the United States, the Republicans got the Senate, they got the House.
He has a mandate, not the kind you get in Chelsea.
He has the mandate that he can do what he wants with the government.
And I think that is going to be a pro-America, pro-freedom, pro-capitalism mandate like we have never seen before.
And the theme of today's show is as we are getting some wins and we're going to go into some of the selections that he's making and some of the back and forth there.
And we're going to also really go into watching some of the media that dragged us to that precipice of hell, watching them sort of backtrack the whole thing.
I'm also going to have the opening.
And what is that opening for?
The opening is for the people who did not get there yet.
We're not going to do Bill Maher clips today.
Don't worry about that.
I think we hit that yesterday just enough.
But there are some other people that are notable old school liberals that I think we either should be Moving towards our side or at least calling out their nonsense so more and more people don't fall for the same things that so many people fell for for the last decade.
And yes, I am talking about Sam Harris, who has in some ways become the head of that monster, unfortunately.
And then we'll talk about the way the media is reacting to Elon Musk.
I don't know if anyone's ever said it before, but I'd like to coin the phrase Musk derangement syndrome right now.
It has shifted seemingly, like they've sort of gone into grieving that Donald Trump will be president, and now their derangement syndrome has been put on the guy that's trying to get us to Mars and free speech us and all of that stuff.
So let's just dive right in.
Sam Harris on his "Waking Up" podcast.
Now Sam Harris, most of you know who he is.
Very well-known atheist, old-school liberal.
He was one of the guys in the course of the last decade online that was sort of the leading voice of independent thinkers on the left that were calling out woke nonsense.
But something happened to him related to Trump that seemingly has pushed him The wrong way, right?
So many of the old school libs, the RFKs, the Tulseys, the Rogans, me, et cetera, you probably.
We made the shift.
We saw what was happening with the landscape of the world, and we've become part of this wide tent thing.
But there's a certain set of people that are stuck on the other side.
And this clip was going mega, mega viral.
It's an audio podcast that he does, and he is not happy with a certain orange man.
sam harris
I would point out that it actually isn't necessary if you think Trump is so bad that you would vote for virtually any other human being over him, which is really the position I'm in.
I just think he's such an abnormal person psychologically and ethically, in terms of the degree to which he is interested only in himself and his fame and wealth.
dave rubin
It's so interesting, because I don't know how you could still believe that now if you've been paying attention at all.
Donald Trump, who almost got shot.
No, sorry, I take that back.
Donald Trump, who did get shot.
Donald Trump, a man who got shot in the ear.
Donald Trump, a man who's put his life on the line, a man who has been under investigation this entire time, which now have all wrapped up suddenly, that he's going to be the next president of the United States, that somehow he's all in it for himself.
It's like if he was all in it for himself, he'd be playing golf every day, right?
He'd be eating his beautiful steaks well done with ketchup every day and not out there putting his butt and his family on the line.
Like, he's put not only his...
Name on the line and his own safety on the line and everything else.
It's his entire family.
It's all of his children who are involved in the things that he's doing.
But it's his grandchildren.
It's anyone who's named Trump going forward.
He's put them all on the line to fight for America.
So the idea that you would, and Sam knows what he's doing.
I mean, he speaks very slowly in that NPR cadence.
So it's not like he's just saying something off the cuff, right?
It's very thought, you may not think it's thoughtful, but it's very thought out with him.
And it's like, well, wait a minute.
You would vote for literally anyone else?
There are some pretty bad people out there.
Have you watched MSNBC lately?
My friend Gad Saad, the sexiest man on the internet, said this about that Sam Harris clip.
clip, he said, Sam Harris would vote for nearly any other person on earth more than Trump.
Very nuanced and well-reasoned position.
Definitely not a manifestation of emotional incontinence.
Serial killers, pedophiles, mass murderers, all would be preferred to Trump, according to the Malibu meditator.
Elon Musk then chimed in, Sam Harris is ironically irrationality personified.
I'm going to show you another clip of the podcast in just a second, or we'll listen to another clip of the podcast in just a second.
You know I've addressed Sam a couple times on the show.
I told you the story of our sort of goodbye and everything.
I am not doing this Sort of just like an unnecessary pylon or something like that.
But I think it is important to illustrate that there is still an intellectual elite class that is going to fight Trump.
It's one thing if we just showed you like all day long.
We could do a 24-hour live stream right now where I could show you TikToks and Instagrams of hysterical 17-year-old girls and blue-haired teachers crying in front of the camera.
That doesn't...
I think being critical of the things that the liberal elite are now saying in light of the oncoming Trump presidency is actually fully legit.
Sam just happens to be the avatar for that right now.
Sam continued on his podcast calling Elon and RFK bullies with no morals.
Oh, and you're not going to believe who he actually likes.
sam harris
...to earn your trust back when they fail.
I understand how satisfying it is to find a new bully to beat up the other bullies who've been making you miserable.
But the problem is, this new bully is worse.
This new bully has no principles.
This new bully has no journalistic or academic or scientific conscience to appeal to.
Whatever might be wrong with a person like Anthony Fauci or Francis Collins or any of the other doctors who have been demonized right of center for their approach to setting COVID policy, at least they are real doctors and scientists who have some professional scruples and reputations to protect among people who actually know something about medical science.
RFK Jr.
has none of that.
He's just a cowboy taking shots at the establishment.
dave rubin
That is such an extraordinarily bad take.
I almost don't know what to say, but since I do a show where I talk for a living, I will try to say something.
First off, when people talk about the liberal elite and why they hate the liberal elite and the people who have come to run our institutions...
Oddly, Sam, they're talking more about someone like you, in a sense, than they are even about a Fauci, right?
Fauci's just the guy in the machine who was running the show during COVID. But what they're really talking about is the people who will basically be like, oh, those people are better than you.
It's the people outside of the machine.
It's the media people who are just like, they're better than you.
Do whatever they want.
Go get injected with their thing while Fauci's emailing his friends to say that the vaccine may not fully work exactly and that masks certainly don't work and that they literally made up six feet social distance and the nonsense.
Of going to a restaurant where you had to wear a mask to walk in, but when you sat down, you could take your mask off, and then your waiter, who was still standing, had to have the mask on, because I guess COVID only moved at about five foot height, right?
All of it was absurd.
And look, I can't speak to what is in Fauci's heart, like in the soul of Anthony Fauci, but I can judge someone on their actions, and his actions were absolutely false.
Horrific, horrific.
They quite literally destroyed lives and killed people.
RFK has been fighting the overreach of government incompetence and the overreach of corporate incompetence and the collusion of those two things.
For his entire life.
He's trying to do things like get seed oils out of fast food restaurants right now.
He's trying to look at what these vaccines did to us and everything else.
So the idea that he's moral-less and at the same time also saying that Elon is moral-less.
Who took his fortune to put his butt on the line the same way Trump did.
I mean, look, as Clay Travis said in this very studio about a month ago, if Trump lost, Elon was likely going to end up in jail.
That is not the craziest thing, right?
They would have continued to go after Trump.
Now they dropped it because Trump is going to be president.
And then it would have proliferated from there.
And Elon would have been number two because of what I just coined, Musk derangement syndrome.
And Fauci, no, he is not a good man.
I'm sorry.
He is not.
You guys might remember this Palpatine moment.
anthony fauci
Anybody who's looking at this carefully realizes that there's a distinct anti-science flavor to this.
So if they get up and criticize science, nobody's going to know what they're talking about.
But if they get up and really aim their bullets at Tony Fauci, well, people could recognize there's a person there.
So it's easy to criticize.
But they're really criticizing science because I represent science.
That's dangerous.
dave rubin
They are criticizing science because I represent science.
That is literally Palpatine.
unidentified
Episode 3, Revenge of the Sith, I Am the Senate.
dave rubin
He was not the good guy in that movie, unless you're a real twisted MF-er.
But that is it.
These people, so you take the liberal elite, who are the, let's say, the podcast version of it, or the talker version of it, the Sam Harris, and you combine them with the liberal elite that run our institutions.
Who was better when it came to science?
I really genuinely mean this.
Who was better when it came to science during COVID? Was it Anthony Fauci or me?
I never told anyone to get injected.
I was like, I don't know.
You gotta talk to your doctor, figure out what's going on.
I was like, you should get outside and get some sun.
I mean, watch my videos.
Why is it that I'm not a scientist?
I don't purport to be a scientist.
I don't even purport to be an expert or anything else.
I was just like, I don't know.
I don't know if this six foot social distancing thing makes sense.
I was always leery of masks, because it didn't make sense.
Masks have opening here and here and here, and people would pull their masks down, like all of the stuff.
We don't have to rehash all of that.
But who has been more true to science?
Was it me or Anthony Fauci?
I'm pretty sure it was me, and hopefully you.
And I know it was quite literally hundreds of thousands of millions of you who ignored that guy, as you should.
Sam continued just one more thing on this, because I think this illustrates the broader point of what's happening now with the media.
Sam here went after Rogan, who he's been on Rogan's show, I don't know, probably at least a half dozen times, probably six or seven times.
And he's now Sam because he's a liberal elite.
You have to understand these people, there's a certain type of person.
They like the institutions.
They like the control.
You might say for an atheist, he believes in that amount of control.
He doesn't believe in God, but he believes in control and he sees the control fading away.
So here he is going after Joe Rogan.
sam harris
The Joe Rogan podcast is not a substitute for the Wall Street Journal or the Kennedy School at Harvard.
It is simply not progress to have a comedian like Dave Smith, who's apparently done his own research, interviewed about the history of the Middle East or the war in Ukraine.
dave rubin
Look, you know, it's interesting.
I'm...
I'm a conversationalist, I suppose, and an interviewer, and I do this for a living, and I've been criticized over the years, oddly, because I had Sam Harris on the show.
There were people further to the left of Sam Harris that thought he was going nuts years ago and were like, Dave Rubin, if you talk to him, that's evil.
You shouldn't have him.
What's he an expert on?
He's a neuroscientist and an atheist.
Why are you talking about him about politics?
And now Sam stared into the abyss, and the abyss stared back, and he's the same thing that he used to fight against.
It's a really weird notion that I think most of us have to We have to be able to check ourselves in the mirror instead of the abyss every now and again so that you don't go down that path.
Now, look, Rogan can pick whoever he wants to put on the show.
Do I agree with everything that is said on Joe Rogan's show?
Absolutely not.
Has he put on some people that I absolutely don't like?
For sure.
Have I probably put on people that he doesn't like?
For sure.
He's making a decision to have conversations about people.
Now, there's an interesting thing there about, well, should that be a replacement For some quote-unquote more legit things.
Now, the Wall Street Journal's basically pretty good, but it's not a zero-sum game.
It's not either-or.
You can have the Wall Street Journal, which is supposedly at least a little more, let's say, legitimate journalism, and then you can have a podcast or MMA guy who likes doing mushrooms having a conversation with whoever the hell he wants to have.
But again, it's about control.
Of course, if you were to criticize the guest list of Sam may want to look in the mirror again because he did do this interview about a year and a half ago.
That was a conversation with Sam Bankman-Fried.
It was called Earning to Give.
Of course, Sam Bankman-Fried laundered, basically, billions of dollars and his entire thing turned out to be a giant Ponzi scheme.
I don't know if Sam wants to put himself on the list of podcasters who are talking to dangerous people.
But we will move now to more media, hardcore media stuff.
And then we will get into, because as I've said, over the next few months of the show, we're really going to try to focus on the positive stuff.
And we're starting to see the glean.
It's starting to shimmer through, right?
The bullshit.
Like, it's starting to come through.
So we will get to that.
First, let me talk about Preserve Gold.
And then we'll have more on a very scary man who's sending people with rockets to stuff and...
Mars and all that kind of thing.
Folks, we're living in unpredictable times with digital currencies on the rise, a whopping 35 trillion in national debt and inflation still at a 40-year high.
For these reasons and more, the big short traders, known for their successful bet against the housing market back in 2008, are warning that Americans don't have enough gold in their portfolios.

Just text Dave to 50505 to receive this exclusive offer.
All right, So let's jump back to the mainstream media because they are reeling right now.
And a little later in the show, we're going to show you some numbers coming out of MSNBC. They are purging, absolutely purging audience.
And they should, right?
They will always exist.
It's a corporate machine.
They will always exist in some form.
But the people have woken up and it's a really beautiful thing.
But first, we're going to jump over to CNN. This is Caitlin Collins.
And here she is, when I mentioned Musk derangement syndrome, here she is going on and on.
She's very, very upset that Elon Musk has been spending his days at Mar-a-Lago trying to help Trump assemble a team, which literally could not be better.
That could not, oh, you took the renaissance man of our time, the man who's solving unbelievably, arguably unsolvable problems, and you're working with him to actually staff the next administration?
That's just terrible to these people.
kaitlan collins
Mar-a-Lago has basically been brimming for the last two days, I'm told, with two kinds of people.
Those angling for a job and those who are trying to influence Trump into hiring their picks.
But one person has loomed over all of that.
His name is Elon Musk.
Multiple sources tell me tonight that Musk has been seen at Mar-a-Lago nearly every single day since Donald Trump won, dining with him on the patio at times.
Today they were seen on the golf course together.
Musk has been in the room when world leaders have called Trump.
And tonight we've learned he's also weighing in on staffing decisions, making clear his preference for certain roles even.
Publicly tonight, Elon Musk is backing Florida Senator Rick Scott as the next leader of the Republican conference to replace Mitch McConnell.
While Musk himself is still not expected to take any kind of formal position inside Trump's administration, given how complicated it would be with his companies, what's becoming clearer tonight is that he doesn't really need to, with one source telling me Elon Musk is having just as much influence from the outside.
dave rubin
First off, you gotta love how these people do journalism.
One source told her that.
Who is that?
Is it her son?
Is it a friend of the family?
Cousin?
Who is that?
An anonymous source on Capitol Hill told me, like, guys, the days of your bullshit reporting and us not calling it out is over, but keep going.
I know you can't stop.
That's one thing.
Secondly, the whole thing is framed as if they're doing something evil or nefarious.
They're doing it very out in the open.
Musk is not hiding that he is at Mar-a-Lago, right?
And then I love it.
She's like, there are two types of people there.
People angling for jobs and people trying to influence him.
Yes.
He has to staff an administration.
And you staff an administration with people looking for jobs.
So now people, hopefully that are qualified, not just because they chop their genders off, that's actually kind of true, not just because they chop their genitals off, but because they've done work in a given field that they want to lead a department on, they show up and they make the case.
It's an Interview process, right?
I know that's very scary for you people that don't believe in meritocracy.
You just believe in jobs for genitals.
But that is what's going on there.
So yes, it's very scary, though.
There are only two types of people.
They're angling for jobs, and then they're trying to influence him.
Well, yes, people come in with a broad set of ideas.
If you were trying to lead America, right?
Like, if I was trying to lead America right now, I would bring, and I had, well, there's 50 jobs I've got to give people.
I would have a whole bunch of people come over, and we'd talk about a bunch of stuff, and I'd ask them about their resumes, and they'd be angling for a job.
Check.
And then they would be telling me what they thought about the economy, foreign policy, the border, etc., etc.
That would be trying to influence me.
So literally, just because of the way they frame it with her anonymous sources, it sounds evil, but it's literally exactly what should be happening right now.
Well, CNN continued.
Maggie Haberman over at the New York Times was over on CNN. I love journalists interviewing journalists, and they talked about Elon's relationship with Trump, and it's very much like his relationship with his daughter.
kaitlan collins
And Maggie, what else have you been hearing from sources?
Because you were reporting on this call with Zelensky that Musk was on.
What are you hearing from people about how this went down?
unidentified
So they were together.
Zelensky apparently called Trump to congratulate him and Trump literally at some point early on in this conversation hands the phone to Elon Musk and encourages Zelensky to talk to Musk.
There is some discussion between Musk and Zelensky about the communications apparatus that Elon Musk's company Starlink We're not sure what other details were discussed, but it's a little reminiscent, Caitlin, of when Trump won in 2016 and he had his daughter Ivanka next to him when he was having foreign leader calls, and he would put her on the phone with people.
In this case, it's the richest man in the world who has business with government, and it's slightly different, but it's pretty in keeping with Trump's character.
dave rubin
You gotta love the chyron there, right beneath them.
Sources say Trump's enamored with Elon Musk.
It's like, imagine if this was the reverse right now.
So imagine if Kamala had won last week and she was bringing in Jeff Bezos.
The way they would be framing this would be like, it would be like something like tech forward Jeff Bezos, who's in Absolute all-star when it comes to logistics and Amazon and revolutionizing industries.
Now sitting down with the president to figure out a way to modernize the economy.
That's exactly what they would do.
But they don't like the guy who helped us get a little free speech, which is supplanting their control over the narrative.
Thus, he's evil.
Trump's enamored with him.
And of course, again, it's a source telling me this.
Why can't you tell who your source is?
Because your source is completely made up.
It's your imaginary friend, and we all know it.
Let's continue with another quote-unquote journalist, Kara Swisher, and she's also not happy with this Elon guy.
kate bolduan
If we take past his prologue or current his prologue in how Elon Musk runs his companies and his style and what that could mean going forward, I mean, cutting waste and inefficiency in federal government is something that many presidents have promised and many Americans would like to see.
But what would Elon Musk's managerial style do in a federal government context?
unidentified
Well, you know, a lot of it is jazz hands around him, you know, and some of it's chaotic.
Some of them are run well, but he's always got someone behind him.
Like at SpaceX, it's a woman named Glenn Shotwell or other executives.
And often he comes in and he just, you know, overthrows trash cans and says, everybody, we're going to do everything differently.
That's something he does a lot.
I don't think you can do that in government.
dave rubin
Yes, you damn well can.
The reason you guys think it can't be done is because it's never been done.
Thus, we created something called the deep state.
And then over decades, it didn't matter whether we had a Democrat president or a Republican president because we had an everlasting group of people there because nothing ever got overturned, right?
Trump is now there to overturn it.
And that's what you guys fear the most because that's Those are the, that's the very machine that you guys are paid to run cover for, and now everyone kind of sees it.
You know, I have to say, having gone and met with Elon a couple times at Twitter, the first time that I met with him, it was, he had just taken over Twitter maybe a month before.
Someone could check the dates on it.
And it was, I got there at about 12.30 a.m.
at night, You guys have heard this story.
There were like tons of people up there.
He was running and taking meetings.
He came up to me and he's like, I heard you had a little, yeah, I've been a problem with your account.
I'd love to get into it.
He's like, it's pretty late right now.
His eyes were all bloodshot.
He was clearly tired, probably been up for 24 hours.
It might've been only days after he bought Twitter actually.
And he was like, if you want me to stay tonight and we can work it out, we can.
Otherwise, if you don't mind, we'll do it tomorrow morning.
And I was like, the world's richest man is willing to stay up late and work with me to look into my little Twitter account.
That tells you about this guy.
You know what he then did?
He then fired half of the employees at Twitter within weeks.
And that is efficiency, because guess what?
Twitter still works.
It's actually better than ever.
Twitter X. It now still works, right?
That's the point.
He went in, and that's what they're afraid we're going to do with government, that we're going to go to the NIH. We'll have more on this in a second.
And we're just going to fire a whole bunch of people.
And on the other side, we're going to find out, my God, it still works.
We're going to fire all of these people who do absolutely nothing.
What do you think the government's good at?
When was the last time any of you were at a post office?
Do you think we're getting the best of the best?
And I'm not making fun of someone who just has the job there behind the counter.
I'm not making fun of your postal work or anything else.
There are obviously good people that are doing important jobs.
But that the thing has gotten so damn big and that the way government works is when they set a budget for one year, they have to spend all the money so that they get more money the next year.
And that's why budgets always grow.
So it is not an income problem we have.
They've tricked everybody to think, oh, if we just take more of your money, especially from those mean billionaires, then we can fund all of the things.
But you can never fund it enough because it's always growing.
What you want to do is scale it back and actually let you have more of your own money and then things will get better pretty damn quick.
You can either listen to someone like Harris Swisher, who has no insight into how Elon Musk...
And the idea that these people who have built nothing, they love criticizing people who are doing actually unbelievably incredible things like Elon Musk is doing.
But Naval, who you guys know, he was actually one of our...
He was a smaller investor for us, but one of our investors and locals.
I had one conversation with this guy for five minutes.
He immediately put money in.
Like, that's the type of investor you want.
Naval Ravikant, he's a legendary tech investor and sort of a guru, I would say, like a Almost like a spiritual guru to the tech guys.
He was on Scott Adams' podcast and had a great story about Bill Gates and Elon Musk.
unidentified
There was a story that I read about him that really affected me, which was when he was talking to Bill Gates.
And Bill Gates had just taken out some huge short on Tesla, like a billion-dollar short or something.
And Ilan was like, why would you do that?
Why would you short Tesla?
And Bill goes, well, I talked to my financial advisors, and I looked at the math, and there's no way it's overvalued, and so I'm going to make money on the short.
And Elon goes, what do you care about making money?
I thought you were into electric cars and climate change and saving the world.
What are you doing trying to save a few bucks and betting against?
And he just walked away in disgust.
And I think he never talked to Bill Gates after that.
And that's when I realized Elon's a purist.
He means what he says.
The money is a tool for him to get what he's trying to do.
And so I take him at face value.
Which is the crazy thing.
Because a lot of people who set these audacious goals to inspire people, but you kind of know they don't really mean it.
Elon, I take it face value.
So I really do think he intends to get to Mars.
I don't think he's joking about that.
And I think he means to get there within a defined window of time.
And I don't think it's just like an inspirational, faraway goal.
I think he's very, very concretely going to do whatever it takes.
Because Elon doesn't want to go down in history as the electric car guy, or even the guy who saved America guy.
He wants to go down as a guy who got humanity to the stars.
Again, I'll give him more credit than that.
I don't even think he wants to go down as the I got humanity to the stars guy.
He's just like, I want to get to the stars.
And so I have to make it happen in this lifetime.
The only way that I get to experience the science fiction world in my head is if I get to the stars.
And so that's so inspirational.
I think that drives everything.
So I think the government was just a thing that got in his way.
dave rubin
Isn't that it, guys?
You see it, right?
Like, you can really see it.
So Bill Gates, why do you short Tesla?
You pretend you're for the environment, but you short Tesla because you just see it as an opportunity to make money.
Elon literally wants to get us to the stars, and he's going, boy, nobody else is going to do it, so I'm going to do it.
Like, he's a purist in that sense.
That's right.
And I don't mean this show, right, this show we're doing today or any of the stuff where I talk about Elon, to worship at the altar of the guy.
He's just a man.
He will make mistakes.
We will have agreements, disagreements.
We'll see what he does with staffing.
We'll see what happens as things shake out.
And I will always call it as I see it.
But the fact that the media is so going after somebody who has done so much good tells you how out of whack the system is.
He is honoring...
The mandate of the people, not the mandate of the machine.
Sam Harris is honoring the mandate of the machine, right?
MSNBC is honoring the mandate of the machine.
You, Trump, me, this new thing, we are honoring the mandate of the people.
Let's see if we can fix it.
And then holy shit, folks, we might end up going to the stars.
Wouldn't that be pretty freaking cool?
Guys, let's talk about Rumble Premium for just a moment, and then we'll get to some of Trump's picks that that scary billionaire might have had something to do with at his shady meetings at Mar-a-Lago that everybody knows about.
We'll do that in a second.
When Rumble first started in 2013, they built the platform for the small creator.
They didn't censor or have biases.
They were fair and treated all creators equally.
No one thought platforms would censor political conversation or censor opinions around COVID, but they did.
Facebook admitted they fell to pressure from the Biden and Harris administration.
Of course, Rumble did not.
They held the line.
They're attacked daily for giving us a voice to talk to you.
They're attacked in corporate media.
They're attacked by governments like France.
They're attacked by brand advertisers who refuse to work with them.
Corporate America is fighting to remove free speech while Rumble is fighting to keep it.
Rumble won't survive with brand advertisers alone.
They don't get much of it.
So watching our show is the number one way we can ask for support from you.
But if you really believe in this fight and you have the means, one major way you can help Rumble survive is by joining Rumble Premium.
Join the community that believes in the First Amendment and believes in our human right to free speech.
Rumble is offering $10 off with promo code Rubin when you purchase an annual subscription.
Go to rumble.com slash premium slash Rubin and use code Rubin.
Like I said, if you have the means and believe in the cause, now is the time to join Rumble Premium.
If you don't have the means, we're just happy if you watch us right here on Rumble.
Okay, so now let's get to some of the things that are happening at Mar-a-Lago right now because they are pretty damn good.
First off, Elon Musk changed his Twitter bio.
Look at this.
People voted for major government reform.
So he ain't hiding it.
It ain't shady.
It's not angling.
It's just exactly what Trump said he was going to do and exactly what Elon said he was going to do when he joined Trump.
So this video, this might be the bumper sticker of everything because everything sort of flows from education.
I think you can make extremely strong arguments that everything that has gone wrong in this country, you know, people like to point out at the college version of it, right?
It was the colleges that really screwed up young people.
But we know this has been happening in the high schools.
We know this has been happening in junior highs and elementary school and probably even pre-K and God knows what, just the amount of propaganda and nonsense that they have been taught.
Well, Donald Trump yesterday said he is shutting down the Department of Education.
donald j trump
And one other thing I'll be doing very early in the administration is closing up the Department of Education in Washington, D.C., and sending all education and education work and needs back to the states.
unidentified
We want them to run the education of our children because they'll do a much better job of it.
You can't do worse.
We spend more money per pupil by three times than any other nation, and yet we're absolutely at the bottom.
We're one of the worst.
So you can't do worse.
We're going to end education coming out of Washington, D.C. We're going to close it up.
All those buildings all over the place.
And you have people that in many cases hate our children.
We're going to send it all back to the states.
Thank you.
dave rubin
I saw this dingbat, one of these CNN guys, this guy Bakari Sellers, he was like, Donald Trump, that means he's locking up the schools and he's shutting down the schools.
No, it just means that the curriculum is not going to come out of D.C. anymore.
He's kicking it back to the states the way it should be.
And then the states will decide what their curriculum is for public schools.
Certain states will go really hardcore on school choice, the way Florida is, for example, and there will be charter schools and private schools and homeschooling and pod schooling and all of those things.
And I can tell you, as a father of young kids, that is what you want.
You want as much choice in the system so you can look around and say, what's best for my kids?
Not just cookie-cutters, sit them there.
Yes, it would be nice.
I look back on my childhood.
I only went to public schools all across, even through college.
And I got a largely pretty good education, I think.
But schools have been rotted out.
They really have.
So we're going to kick it back.
We're going to get the centralized control of the Department of Education in D.C. That is going to be blown up.
And if you now are in Alabama and you feel that the Alabama education system is failing your kids, well, guess what?
You have choice because thank God you live in America and the founders came up with something called federalism so you can move.
And everyone will go, nobody wants to move.
You have to make decisions in your life.
You have to make important decisions.
But at least in America, you can move within the country where in most countries you have to leave the country if you don't like what's going on.
So blowing up the centralized control of education is absolutely spectacular.
Of course, teachers' unions are not happy, and the, I would say, liberal elite who are in service to the machine are not happy.
But let's jump to a picture of some of Trump's picks so far.
So Susie Wiles, Tom Homan, Elise Stefanik, Stephen Miller, Lee Zeldin, and Mike Walls.
Obviously, Wiles is chief of staff.
First female ever, not that it matters.
Tom Homan, Borders Art.
We're gonna have more on him in a little bit.
Stefanik is ambassador to UN. I think she's going to do a bang-up job over there.
Stephen Miller, deputy chief of staff for policy.
So that's a lot of bringing in the right people, hopefully.
Lee Zeldin, I thought this was an interesting one.
He'll be an EPA administrator.
I don't know what his qualifications for that are, but I think he's a rising star in the Republican Party, and I think it's good to get him involved.
And Representative Mike Walls will be National Security Advisor.
So, so far, so good.
And then yesterday, New York Post, this is a big one.
Trump reportedly picks Marco Rubio as Secretary of State.
So Marco Rubio, who was radically anti-Trump, ran against Trump.
Trump used to make fun of him, but he has been a fine senator and I would say is one of the best explainers on the national stage ever.
Or on the worldwide stage of what America is all about.
You know, I've had him on the show a million times.
A man whose father came here from Cuba washing dishes and sat him down and told him, this is America.
You can become whatever you want.
And he became a senator, ran for president, and now will be secretary of state.
And for all of the people that are suddenly saying, oh my God, these picks aren't quite right.
There are some in the Trump camp that are like, oh my God, these picks, I'm not so happy.
I'm not getting exactly what I want.
I thought Kyle Becker, who we quote on the show often, I thought he made a good point here.
He said, what do Rick Scott, Marco Rubio, Mike Waltz, and Elise Stefanik all have in common?
They all voted against Ukraine spending packages, which is what we want because we wanna wrap up a war that Ukraine cannot win.
The Biden administration wanted Ukraine to win a war that it can't win, and it wanted Israel to lose a war that it can't lose.
No more, no more.
Lee Zeldin said this, it's an honor to join President Trump's campaign as EPA administrator.
We will restore U.S. energy dominance, revitalize our auto industry to bring back American jobs and make the U.S. the global leader of AI. We will do so while protecting access to clean air and water.
So look, this is gonna be a great challenge now for the Republicans, right?
For all of the people that think, oh my God, the world is about to end and AOC and climate change in 12 years and Green New Deal and all of these things.
You know, the Republicans have a chance to be like, oh, you know, it turned out that without giant government overhauls over the economy and controlling whether you can have a gas stove and everything else, we were the ones that actually started cleaning up the water system.
We were the ones that started putting out less CO2 and all of those things.
So that's gonna be on Lee Zeldin.
I think it's an interesting proposition A guy by the name of Dave Rubin tweeted this about this new team that's coming together.
Trump is assembling the Avengers just without a bunch of woke douchebags.
I do agree with that.
And you know that video of all of the cast of the Avengers just, you know, 10 days ago, suddenly all of them became huge Kamala Harris supporters.
And it's like, why did all of these actors do that?
Because the machine told them what And they are replaceable parts in a machine, as you know.
And if you want to see the type of reform that is on its way, well, it's basically in place already.
Check this out from Breaking 911.
Breaking RFK Jr.
to fire 600 employees at the National Institutes of Health, replacing them with a new cohort of workers as he seeks to dramatically reshape America's health agencies.
Look, and that's from ABC News.
I do not know what all these 600 people do.
As I said before, I am sure some of them are good people, and they're going to have to find new jobs, and nobody wants to get fired, and no one wants that pain point in their life, and they'll get some severance packages and all of that.
But this is when Elon, a couple weeks ago, when they were like, Elon said that there's going to be some pain involved.
Well, there will be some pain.
To scale back an ever-growing, overreaching, what do we want to call it?
Like, just Goliath of a monster.
Well, to push that thing back and to put it back in its cage, there's going to be some pain points.
So I would feel bad for any of the 600 employees, unless they were truly up to nefarious things over there.
If you tell me that some of the heads of these things got fired, I don't care.
But, you know, the average person who works there that might have just some nominal job or wasn't particularly politicized, of course you feel bad for that person.
But that doesn't mean they should have their job in perpetuity.
And it's not just the NIH that's going to be reformed.
Florida Surgeon General Dr.
Joseph Latipo, who did an absolutely incredible job here when it came to COVID and became DeSantis' right-hand man, related to all of this, he's saying that he would like to be HHS Secretary in Trump's administration.
unidentified
I personally would, I actually would like to be Secretary of HHS. And the reason I would like to do that is because, so I'm in it for impact.
Like, if I can't have impact, I'm not in it.
Dr.
Joseph Ladipo's desire to have impact became clear during the pandemic.
When COVID hit, he was a professor of medicine at the University of California researching heart health.
He became one of the mainstream figures to break away and speak out early against the disastrous shutdowns, CDC mandates, and government misinformation.
dave rubin
Alright, so I don't know if he's going to get the gig, but I know he would be pretty damn good at it.
I've met him a couple times.
I've seen the way Florida has dealt with these things.
Obviously, very personal to me and my staff and moving here and everything else.
And that would just be...
And this is the point.
The point of showing you that.
It doesn't matter whether he chooses them or not.
Good people are like...
Hey, I'll get involved.
I'll come to Mar-a-Lago and try to influence you and try to put my resume there and see what happens.
And that's what they're freaked out about.
Because the scariest thing for all the people who have lied for all these years, the scariest thing to them is not that Trump will actually become Hitler because they don't even believe it.
The scariest thing for them is that Trump will do great things.
And that is what he's going to do.
And this administration is shaping up beautifully.
And then they will all look like complete and utter frauds.
And that's actually what they are.
And that would be scary if you want to keep your job, speaking of people losing their jobs.
We will have more on Tom Homan in just a second.
Of course, he was the director of ICE under Trump, and he's going to be the border czar.
And this guy, as we showed you those videos yesterday, this guy does not F around.
But first, let me talk to you about 1775 Coffee.
Did you know that most coffee creamers aren't even made with real cream or dairy?
That's right.
Your morning coffee might be loaded with oils, sugars, thickeners, and a laundry list of chemicals that don't belong in your cup.
But 1775 Coffee's protein creamer is different.
Packed with 10 grams of whey protein, zero sugar, zero fat, and under 50 calories.
Non-GMO and naturally flavored with a smooth vanilla taste, it's pure American fuel for those who want to conquer their day while keeping their health in check.
Whether you're fasting, building muscle, or simply gearing up to take on whatever challenges come your way, 1775's Creamer has you covered.
Pair it with their premium, single-origin coffee, and you're not just starting your morning, you're launching it.
This duo is bold, consistent, and unapologetically steadfast as you are.
Use code RUBEN for 15% off and make your mornings as strong as your beliefs.
All right, so I want to talk about Tom Homan for a minute.
Tom Homan was Trump's ICE guy, in charge of ICE, in charge of getting people out of the country.
And look, if you are here illegally, you're breaking the law.
And as I always say, we can have all of the conversations about the people who were born here, and we can have all of the conversations about people who've been here for 20 years and paying taxes, and that there's going to have to be some nuance to who has to go.
But a good amount of people are going to have to go.
We do not want to become Europe.
You see what's going on in Amsterdam right now?
And in Holland, it's not good.
And it's not good in Germany, and it's not good in the UK, and it's not good in France, etc., etc.
Anyway, Tom Homan, who is a serious...
This guy is a serious player, and we're going to need serious people to be in this very high-stakes game.
Well, he is going to be Biden's new border czar.
Sorry.
Whoa.
He is going to be...
He is going to be Donald Trump's new border czar.
Kamala Harris was Biden's border czar.
And the ladies at The View are freaking out.
Here's Sonny Hostin.
sunny hostin
I mean, I echo all of that, right?
I mean, we get the government that we vote for as a country, and the majority of the country apparently voted for this.
And, you know, I think it's really loud and clear that what he said, he meant.
And if you look at Hogan's background, he was a contributor to Project 2025.
He was a police officer, which I find really rich because he was appointed by a convicted felon.
He also was a United States Border Patrol agent, a special agent with the former Immigration and Naturalization Service.
So this is his thing.
This is his background.
But what I would like to point out is that there is no correlation between undocumented People and a rising crime.
That's statistically accurate.
Immigrants, including undocumented immigrants, are less likely to make crimes in the United States.
So this notion somehow that it's about national security, I think is just false.
dave rubin
Man, they're so evil and it's increasingly obvious and they're going to get more hysterical as it gets unmasked.
We'll do the correlation thing in a moment.
But first, you see how she reads off his resume as if it's a bad thing?
Oh, he was in the police and he worked at Border?
And now he's going to be in charge of the border?
Oh, God, someone who knows something about law enforcement is going to actually be in charge?
You mean they didn't just select somebody because he was gay to be the transportation secretary?
Oh, you didn't just find somebody who chopped off their dick to be health and human services secretary?
Like, somebody who had a job that has something to do with the job that they're going to have is going to have that job?
Holy shit!
Okay, that's one part.
And of course, the other part is this thing about correlation between crime and illegals.
Putting aside statistics on that for just a moment, if you are here illegally, it is a crime in and of itself.
Why are you spending so much time, lady, worrying about people who have broken the law by being here in the first place?
Also, I'm fairly certain that if MS-13 or the Venezuelan rape gangs move next door to you, Or moved into your house while you were on The View and then they moved in and then you couldn't kick them out, you wouldn't be that thrilled.
The amount of fentanyl they're bringing over the border and everything else.
So it's just silliness and people see through it.
And yes, actually you did get one thing right.
We the people did vote for this and we're about to get it.
Sorry, lady.
Holman, now I'm going to show you Anna Navarro.
Now, Anna Navarro, who of course is one of the Harpies, one of the co-hosts of The View, she was on Fox going after Holman.
And well, take a look.
This is on Hannity.
ana navarro
Have U.S. citizen children or U.S. citizen spouse, and you don't want to separate them?
Then let's deport the U.S. citizens.
When you talk about mass deportations, people think, oh, it's just going to be the criminals.
There's not enough criminals.
Aliens in the federal prison system for it to be mass deportations.
What it means is grandmothers.
What it means is brothers and aunts.
What it means is abuelos y abuelas.
It means dreamers.
It means family members.
It means your colleagues.
unidentified
Well, the propaganda war has begun.
Here with more is America's next border czar.
Tom Holman is with us.
Tom, welcome back to the program.
tom homan
Great to have you.
unidentified
Are you planning on deporting American citizens?
tom homan
No, exactly not.
Look, the view, it's like the island of misfit toys.
They don't know what the hell they're talking about.
President Trump has made it clear.
We will prioritize public safety threats and national security threats first.
And that's where the focus will be.
And there's over 1.5 convicted criminal aliens in this country with final orders of removal that we're going to be looking for.
There's thousands of gang members, illegal alien gang members we're going to be looking for.
Now, I'm going to say, if you're in the country illegally, You shouldn't feel comfortable.
Absolutely not.
I won't feel comfortable if I'm in a country illegally.
If I'm in some other country illegally, I'm not going to be comfortable.
You shouldn't be comfortable either, because when you enter this country illegally, you have committed a crime.
You are a criminal, and you're not off the table.
dave rubin
I mean, we have been waiting for this guy.
We're finally getting the guy we've been waiting for.
It's incredible.
Like, he would play himself in the movie.
That's how, like, on cast this guy is.
On point, right?
First off, Navarro.
Navarro, let me just say something to you, Anna.
You live very close to me, okay?
We haven't bumped into each other yet.
But we will one of these days.
And we happen to live in one of the safest places in the United States because Florida's a law and order state and we live in a law and order city and we have great policing.
Just yesterday, I was walking Clyde.
There was a police officer on my street who was just parked.
I don't know what she was doing, but I went up, said hi, like started chatting.
It's good to know that these are great people and you're shitting All over the peace that you have in your own life.
You're trying to upend.
It's absolutely, it's just profoundly disgusting.
And yes, we are going to have to get rid of some abuelos and abuelas and tios and tias.
And donde esta la biblioteca?
And cuantos años tienes tu?
And it has nothing to do with Hispanics.
It has nothing to do with Hispanics.
There are illegals that are coming from China.
And then they give drugs to other people who come in from other places.
And there are gang members and everything else.
And by the way, Because you were using Spanish there is why I'm making fun of you.
You guys, this election proved that the Hispanic community at large, and there's many, many deviations of that, many verticals within that, they are not buying your bullshit anymore.
People have just had it.
So, Homan is right.
By the way, 1.5 million people who have committed crimes that are illegals, yeah, You gotta go.
What was it?
Then, of course, the gang members.
You gotta go.
And then, yes, we will have the conversation about people's housekeepers and all of the other things, and the people that are legally here doing good things.
There is nobody, Donald Trump himself, Does not want to get rid of...
First off, it would literally be impossible.
I don't think that even Donald Trump, the man that you keep purporting is Hitler, wants to do this horrific family separation thing for people that have been here largely doing legal things, even if their entry was illegal.
But we will get to all of that.
But you guys won't even let us deal with the freaking criminals in the first place.
But Tom Homan clearly is gonna.
Here's a little more from Tom.
tom homan
And we know what happens to these children, Sean.
Look, the illegal animals coming across the border, people need to understand, 31% of women that make their journey get raped by criminal cartels.
Children get raped.
I've talked to little girls as young as nine that have been raped multiple times.
These cartels are going to take them off the face of the earth.
They've killed more Americans than every terrorist organization in the world.
And President Trump is committed to calling them a terrorist organization and using the full mighty United States Special Operations to take them out.
dave rubin
I'm gonna make a movie about Tom Homan.
I'm gonna call Tom Homan.
Tom Homan, can you play Tom Homan?
You'd play Tom Homan in the movie?
All right, let's do it.
Look, this is a serious dude.
This is what we've needed.
This is the reverse of the absurdity clown car of ridiculous that we have had with the Biden administration.
And check this out.
This is Homan's acceptance speech yesterday.
I mean, this is just...
tom homan
Hey, look, they gave me five minutes to say a few things, so if I offend anybody tonight, I don't give a s***.
How many pounds of fentanyl didn't make in this country to kill Americans?
How many known suspected terrorists didn't make in the country?
How many billions of dollars did the cartels make?
President Trump is one badass president.
He secured the border at a level we've never seen before.
And I got a message to the millions of illegal aliens that have been released into the United States under this administration.
Don't get too comfortable.
We're going to need some help.
Do I have any volunteers that want to come back and help run the biggest deportation operation in the history of this nation?
In January of 25, the greatest president of my lifetime is walking back in the White House.
He tells me, you know, I say 120 days.
He says, no, you got 60 to lock the border down.
I'll tell you what.
I'll tell you what I told the president.
He comes back.
I come back.
We fix this s***.
dave rubin
All right, that's it.
Can we make an action figure of that guy?
That's what I want my kids playing with.
He gets it.
He gets it, people.
That's it.
That's a serious guy.
I have qualifications.
I'm going to do the job.
I'm not gonna play around.
We got a problem.
We don't want to be Europe.
Et cetera, et cetera.
It continues.
You know, I always quote that line from Douglas Murray that one day the barbarians will be at the gate and we'll be debating what gender pronouns to call them.
That's been the woke position on everything.
That is, all the bad things come.
We're just so worried about calling them Latinx or ding-dang-ding and all this stuff.
And what genitals do they have as the horrible people are trying to destroy our country?
There's another version of that, or I would say in addition to that.
And the addition would be that all of the The wokesters and the lefties and the progressives and all these people, they were also like, basically, you'd have the strong man holding the door, right?
All the evil forces, right?
The jihadists, the genderqueer whack jobs, all of the stuff.
They've been trying to destroy our country.
And then we've had a strong man holding the door at times, right?
It's the strength of our country holding the door.
And what they were all doing was basically taking a little knife and slowly chiseling away his Achilles while he was trying to hold the door.
Well, now we've got a guy that seems to have an iron Achilles, and I think that that is a good thing.
A little bit more from Charlie Kirk.
Tom Homan announces he will begin workplace immigration raids.
If you are illegal, get out of our country now.
It will save us time and energy and also spare you the humiliation.
The days of gaming America's immigration system with impunity are over.
Get out.
You know, there's something interesting about this.
Look, I know some of it sounds kind of cold and whatever, but Let's just play a game here for a second.
Imagine if you, person watching this right now, you just got into another country.
You're on vacation in Italy or in Japan, Thailand or Mexico.
Just pick your country, right?
Wherever you want to go on vacation.
Imagine if you just decided to never come home and just to live there and set up shop and not do anything wrong.
I'm not talking about the rapists and the murderers and everything else.
Well, still, you would be illegally there, and it would be within the right of any of those countries to get rid of you.
So it's just realism that is returning.
And I know it can sound a little scary for some people.
One of the people that realism can sound scary for, because I'm Fairly certain her hair's not really this color is Joy Reid, and she says that it's not because of identity politics that the Democrats lost.
joy reid
As we try to unpack exactly what happened in last week's election and how Donald Trump won, there's one particularly disingenuous argument that has emerged.
unidentified
I think one of the losers here is condescending identity politics.
We constantly try to parse out different ways of speaking to different cohorts because our focus groups are polling shows that so-and-so appeals to such and such.
That's not how normal people think.
fareed zakaria
The dominance of identity politics on the left, which made it push for all kinds of DEI policies that largely came out of the urban academic bubble, but alienated many mainstream voters.
joy reid
The idea that identity politics was the problem for Democrats is laughable, considering it wasn't Vice President Kamala Harris who relentlessly focused on race or gender, either her own or anyone else's.
That would be Donald Trump.
dave rubin
She is a piece of work.
We'll have some info on her numbers in just a moment.
But yes, this was, there were two things that this election, well, probably get three out of it maybe.
But look, the election, as I kept saying for weeks, was about reality, right?
It was the online media versus the mainstream media and who had more power.
And clearly we became the winners on that.
But what was driving that divide in the media, it was identity politics.
You guys, the machine, were pushing the ideas of equity over equality, of hyper-racialization, of the gender stuff.
You guys get it, right?
You get all that.
So the fact that she still now can't look at that.
That she can't look at that, and instead she's like, you Latinos voted for Trump.
You're the racist.
Now, it's pathetic, it's thin, and it ain't working.
Comedian Tim Dillon made a funny point on his program as it pertains to the intersectional quasi-reality of these lunatics.
unidentified
Leave the identity politics to the side.
Nobody cares.
Stop elevating the craziest people anyone's ever seen.
You can't...
Can you have a meeting over there and just say you can't be...
You know, non-binary and have green hair and be 400 pounds and be like annoying and be a communist and be a vegan and be somehow in Hamas.
You have to pick one.
Pick one, please.
You have to pick one.
You can't be all of the things.
People are not going to get on board with that.
People just, people don't want to deal with it.
Stop catering to people's need to feel like they are a revolutionary all the time.
You're not a revolutionary, okay?
You're drinking a smoothie.
dave rubin
Yeah, he's right.
You can't be all these things.
Vegans for Hamas, queers for Palestine, all these things.
But they combined it.
We knew it wasn't going to work.
It is now collapsed in spectacular fashion.
Phoenix just reminded me that Tim happens to be gay.
I don't care.
To each his whole.
That's what I always say.
And we...
Have I never used that one on the show before?
That comes out of the Reuben private file.
Okay.
Check this out from End Wokeness, because good things are happening, people.
Look at the MSNBC ratings collapse here.
Joy Reid, that blonde woman, she's down 55%.
Ari Melber, white guy, he's down 50%.
Chris Hayes, Muppet, he's down 47%.
Alex Wagner, married to Obama's chef, I think, 54%.
Morning Joe and his wife.
Oh, God, only down 40%.
I'd like to see that number jump a little bit.
Stephanie Ruhle, she's sort of nothing, down 67%, where she's down the most and nobody even knows who she is.
And Andrea Mitchell, who is just an utter tool of the machine, down 40%.
There's a picture of Brian Stelter there who's on CNN. It's always...
Nice to see that guy.
They're crumbling.
They're crumbling and they should crumble and it's wonderful and it's great and it's spectacular.
Do we have our numbers from our live stream yesterday?
I think we do.
Yeah, on our show yesterday, our live show, so our hour and 15 minute show, we had 608,000 views on YouTube, which I don't even promote.
YouTube.
And we had 131,000 on Rumble.
So that's almost 800,000 views.
That's not including any of the clips or anything else.
And they would kill for those numbers.
I am not.
Well, I guess I'm saying it as a pat on the back to my staff and that we're doing something good here.
But the point is the thing has changed.
And there's breaking news just in the last half hour that NBC Comcast is planning to sell MSNBC next week.
You know what?
I'm gonna buy it.
I'm gonna throw in, I'll throw in, what are they selling it for?
What if I bought MSNBC and then I made them all work with me and do the, like, you, dance for me.
Dance for me, lady, blonde lady.
I'm, Elon, that's hilarious.
Elon should buy it, put them all in a jail cell, a padded cell, and just like see what happens.
How much could they possibly be selling that worthless piece of shit for?
I'll throw in 500 grand.
500 grand, I'll buy MSNBC. Like, all right, why not?
Let's see what happens.
Charlie Kirk, again, this is a Charlie Kirk honorary show.
He tweeted this, 77-year-old Chris Wallace will quit CNN and walk away from a seven-figure salary rather than renegotiate his contract.
His plan is to go into independent streaming or podcasting.
Pointing to Joe Rogan and Charlemagne the God, that's Lenny, as inspiration.
Legacy news outlets are losing viewers, but even more important, they're losing their power to set narratives.
Trump's 2024 landslide could very well be the death knell for MSM, mainstream media, as mainstays of old-fashioned outlets run for the exit.
You are the media now.
First off, Chris, like, dude, this guy, he left to go to CNN Plus, which they put hundreds of millions of dollars into, and then that thing collapsed, right?
Then he was, bounced Fox, CNN, all these things, and now it's like he's 77 years old and he's gonna go independent.
Because you know all the kids are gonna be like playing PS5, you know, they're playing Call of Duty or Fortnite, and they're eating their Takis and they're drinking their Prime, and they're gonna be like, yo, bro!
You want to watch Chris Wallace, man?
He's gone independent.
I'll pay for him.
I'd like to see Chris Wallace.
Yeah, he's cool.
Look at him.
More Takis, man.
More Prime.
Riz.
Joe Scarborough, who's down 40% over at MSNBC. He's a very serious man.
And, well, here he is.
Just, I'm not even teeing this off with anything.
Just go.
unidentified
It will be interesting to me.
Obviously, you've got the North Koreans now.
that are gonna be fighting and trying to push further with the Russians into Ukraine.
But the question is, again, we've talked about this, it could have been over the past few years, You have Donald Trump, what he says to Vladimir Putin, and then you have the actual policies that have been fairly tough in the first administration because the Senate was pushing really tough restrictions.
dave rubin
So you can see what's happening here.
What they now realize is that Donald Trump was not in Russia's pocket.
Donald Trump was not in Putin's pocket.
Putin did not go into Ukraine and take Crimea under Donald Trump.
He did that under Barack Obama.
We have four years apiece under Donald Trump.
The second Joe Biden becomes president, and Biden kept hinting it, I think Putin's going to go in.
I think Putin's going to go in.
Next thing you know, we've had basically three years of a multi-billion dollar There's this woman, AOC, she's losing a lot of steam, too.
That's really more, in some sense, look, I love the fact that America's back.
I love the 80s Renaissance.
I love that we're bringing in serious people.
It's gonna be wonderful.
Comedy's gonna be funny again.
We're gonna make great music again and movies and all of these things.
But the other, of course, beautiful part of this is that no one's gonna pay attention to these progressives anymore.
And here is AOC, who is one of the most fake Personally, I don't.
alexandria ocasio-cortez
I think that a lot of voters really don't like fake people.
And they're sick and tired of fake politicians.
And so what I actually think is worse is saying something you don't believe.
And so if during the entire time in campaign season, you're saying that you're down with trans people or like the LGBT community, and then you lose an election.
And then the next day you say All that stuff was wrong.
I actually think what people are more upset about is someone was doing something they didn't believe and just saying something.
Like if you actually weren't about that life, why did you campaign as though you were?
dave rubin
So I'm not exactly sure, is she going after Kamala there?
Has Kamala suddenly said she's not down with trans people?
She was going to give trans criminals sex changes in jail paid for by you.
I don't know that Kamala has walked that thing back.
But it goes exactly to my point about authenticity and how did it turn out?
What a beautiful God-given gift we all got with Donald Trump, that a billionaire with orange hair, with...
Crazy hair and orange skin was more authentic than all of them, including you, because you just fake it, AOC, with your little videos and your glasses and the whole thing.
You're just faking your authenticity.
I don't think you believe anything that you say.
And you are just an interchangeable part of the machine.
And by the way, lady, the machine is almost done with you.
Yes, you may remain a congresswoman for a while, but your days of being loved by the media and promoted, you know, she's just one of the hundreds of congresspeople.
The only reason we talk about her is because the media made her into something.
She's no more important than your congressperson wherever you're watching this from.
But somehow they created her and she's almost done and suck it, bitch.
Pod Save America is a program that I guess it's a podcast with a lot of Obama, former Obama advisors.
These are all far left, sort of asexual, can't get a bone or losers.
And here they are now.
They're going after Biden because they need excuses.
unidentified
Joe Biden's decision to run for president again was a catastrophic mistake.
It just was.
And he and his inner circle, they refused to believe the polls.
They refused to believe he was unpopular.
They refused to acknowledge until very late that anyone could be upset about inflation.
And they just kept telling us that his presidency was historic and it was the greatest economy ever.
We just heard him again say that it's the greatest economy ever.
Clearly, 70, 80 percent of voters don't believe that.
They don't believe that about their own Personal financial situation, but they just keep telling us that.
And then after the debate, the Biden people told us that the polls were fine.
And Biden was still the strongest candidate.
And they were privately telling reporters at the time that Kamala Harris couldn't win.
So they were shiving Kamala Harris to reporters while they told everyone else, not a time for an open process, and his vice president can't win, so he's the strongest candidate.
Then we find out, when Kamala Harris, when the Biden campaign becomes the Harris campaign, that the Biden campaign's own internal polling, at the time when they were telling us he was the strongest candidate, showed that Donald Trump was going to win 400 electoral votes.
That's what their own internal polling said.
dave rubin
I'm sorry, there's just no way that guy can get a boner.
I'm just saying, it's just, that's it.
Do you want more of some analysis on that?
So some analysis might be, dude, get a mirror.
This isn't Joe Biden's fault, right?
There's actually a pretty good chance that Joe Biden would be president right now, as horrible as it was, as horrible as his mental state is and everything else.
And by the way, since you're all former Obama staffers, you're only saying that now because Obama's basically giving you the wink To go ahead and say it, right?
Obama's experiment and coup with Kamala Harris failed.
You don't want to blame Obama and Kamala, right?
If you blame Kamala, that's basically blaming Obama.
So now you're blaming the guy that you guys all forced out.
It's all so pathetic.
You guys lost because your ideas suck.
People have had enough of your bullshit.
We're all seeing through it.
And your day is almost done.
So good luck with your flaccid wang.
Yesterday, obviously, was Veterans Day, and Jill Biden and Kamala Harris were both at a Veterans Day event, which I think was at Arlington, not National Cemetery, it was at the park, correct?
Oh, it was at Arlington National Cemetery.
Look at this video.
I mean, look how cold it is between the two of them.
I have not seen two chicks hate each other this much since season seven of The Golden Girls when Dorothy started stealing all the men from Blanche At the Rusty Anchor, look, they hate each other and credit and kudos to any of you that got that reference.
Here's Nancy Pelosi, who's also a horrible person.
unidentified
But I do think it's important to discuss a little bit about what you think could have been done differently.
And a lot of the discussion has centered around how much President Biden's delay in deciding to leave the race following the debate in June hurt the VP's campaign.
You know, you were very involved in encouraging him to leave.
And there's reporting that you were concerned about him being the candidate well before the debate in June.
nancy pelosi
We did all that we needed to do to win the House as well as the White House.
It's up to the candidate for president to make his or her own decision about timing, policy.
unidentified
Do you think the timing hobbled Kamala Harris?
Because she had 100 days to get a campaign off the ground, to mobilize people, to get her message across, to get her self-known.
I mean, this was an incredibly truncated campaign.
And many people think that maybe she was set up to fail just by the timeline alone.
nancy pelosi
Oh, I don't think she was set up to fail.
But let me just say this.
We're only a couple of days since the election.
There will be many reviews of timing and the who, what, when and why and where as we go forward.
And books will be written about it.
The fact is she did a great job with the time constraint that she had.
Had the president gotten out sooner, there may have been other candidates in the race.
Kamala, I think, still would have won.
But she may have been stronger, having taken her case to the public sooner.
unidentified
Should there have been an open primary, though?
nancy pelosi
Well, see, we thought that there would be.
You know, the anticipation was that if the president were to step aside, that there would be an open primary.
dave rubin
Liar!
Pants on fire.
Pants suit on fire.
Whatever you wear.
No, you guys decided to have no primary.
Now you're pretending that he should have stepped down earlier.
You guys were all telling us he was completely fine the entire time.
And yes, there will be books written on what happened.
And lady, they are not going to look good for you.
And by the way, Nancy Pelosi, just like AOC, go...
Retire now.
Go away.
Nobody likes you.
You couped a sitting president of the United States.
You installed this DEI hire who was an absolutely horrible candidate.
You've made, you're worth about $300 million.
And since Trump has become the president-elect, the stock market's doing pretty well.
So you've got plenty of money.
Go hang out with your grandchildren.
Unless your grandchildren are afraid of you, which is what I think is going on here.
unidentified
Because you walk into the room and you go, oh my God, it's for the children!
dave rubin
The children!
Yes!
That was also Skeletor.
We got one more for you, because everybody's obsessed with what's happening online right now, and that scary Joe Rogan fella.
Here he is with comedian Theo Vaughn, who Donald Trump also did his podcast.
And yes, they're feeling what you're feeling.
America's best days are ahead of her.
Thank the Lord.
joe rogan
Yo, how fun was election night at the mothership?
unidentified
It was baffling, man.
I mean, here, I'll tell you.
It was all...
joe rogan
It was so much fun!
We had such a good time.
That Green Room was so positive.
unidentified
My favorite part, at one point, they were playing that song, you talk about a revolution.
People were dancing, people were smoking weed.
I think there was a baby smoking weed.
Everybody was like, people were like, it was crazy, dude.
Adam and Eve were in there.
There was just a lot going on.
joe rogan
It felt like...
America's brighter.
That's what it felt like.
We were moving towards this insane world where we're being controlled by liars.
We're just being gaslit left and right.
We saw it all over the media.
We saw it all over the news.
Things that were right in front of your face, they're trying to deny.
There's just so much craziness.
And then all of a sudden...
unidentified
America's back, baby!
Wait.
We got a post-game show coming up at rubinreport.locals.com.
dave rubin
See everybody else tomorrow.
Bye!
unidentified
I'm asking right now...
I'm asking you to turn yourselves in wherever you are.
If you have denigrated the leader, if you have spoken ill of the leader, social media or elsewhere, if you have called the leader names, Turn yourself in.
Turn yourself in now and let's not spend the money trying to find you.
Turn yourself in.
Informing on your friends and family who are also wrong and getting into a re-education camp immediately is a positive.
Learning about having RFK teach you about raw milk.
And stem cells and peptides.
Having RFK, there's going to be courses in the camps, in the re-education camp.
Roseanne will be teaching a course.
It will be exciting for many of you.
Many of you, I understand, are upset, and I understand that.
But imagine waking up in a camp and being taught a course by Roseanne or RFK or the Nelk Boys.
You're going to be taught.
You're going to learn.
You're going to learn whether you like it or not.
You will learn.
You're going to learn.
