*Music* Good. | |
| *Music* Hello everyone, I'm Dave Rubin. | ||
| This is The Rubin Report. | ||
| It is March 11th, 2025. | ||
| If you did not understand what that very brief cold open was all about, that means you're probably not on the Twitter/X machine, which got hit by a massive cyber attack. | ||
| We'll have a bit more on that at the end of today's show, but it is a good moment, a good opportunity for you to join us, rubinreport.locals.com. | ||
| If X goes down, I mean, think about it. | ||
| I tweeted this out when it came back yesterday, but really think about it, the way we all communicate now. | ||
| X happens to be my, like, platform of choice, and that's where I think that most of the conversation is happening, and that's where all the stuff that we're always talking about is being driven from, right? | ||
| That's where it's originating and getting out to the system. | ||
| But imagine if it went down for 24 hours, for 48 hours, for 72 hours. | ||
| Like, the ability for us to communicate with each other, who would you trust, how would you get information, and everything else. | ||
| RubinReport.Locals.com. | ||
| Download the app. | ||
| It's absolutely free. | ||
| You can join. | ||
| I will always be able to get in touch with you. | ||
| Push notifications, direct contact, back and forth. | ||
| And we will have a post-game show at RubinReport.Locals.com today. | ||
| I owe you one because we did not have one yesterday. | ||
| I was on Piers Morgan and I had to smack around some leftists. | ||
| That was fun. | ||
| Today's show will be largely about genitals. | ||
| Who has them? | ||
| Who thinks they have them? | ||
| And who's trying to do things with other people's genitals? | ||
| It'll be a bit about cutting government waste, which is sort of like cutting genitals. | ||
| We'll have a bit about immigration, and we will end on a positive note that you should never quit, people. | ||
| Go, go, go, because that's how you change the world. | ||
| We will start today, speaking of genitals, Dylan Mulvaney. | ||
| This is a guy who runs around as a stereotypical girl who, as you know, got the big deal about two years ago with... | ||
| Bud Light, and then that caused Bud Light to absolutely crash. | ||
| He's a guy that dresses as a girl. | ||
| That is just the truth. | ||
| Anyway, he went on The View, which I'm sure I'm fairly certain is a show of several other guys that dress as women, but I leave that up to you. | ||
| And whoopee! | ||
| and Dylan got in it about men in women's sports, and then Sonny chimes in about this Gavin Newsom, Charlie Kirk podcast that we covered a couple days ago. | ||
| Enjoy. - Last week, California governor Gavin Newsom said that he thinks that trans athletes competing in girls and women's sports was deeply unfair. | ||
| Now, I want to hear what you think. | ||
| I'll tell you what I think, too. | ||
| The last time I played a sport, I was six years old, and I was on a soccer team, but I assigned myself as the nurse. | ||
| So I sat with the band-aids. | ||
| And so, in the words of Wicked, I am not that girl. | ||
| But a dear friend of mine, Skylar, he is a trans athlete. | ||
| His handle's Pink Manta Ray. | ||
| That's someone who I really look to for guidance. | ||
| And I think that is what's tricky. | ||
| Now stepping in this identity, I'm still like a baby trans. | ||
| You know, I've only three years in, tomorrow's my anniversary. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Your friend went from female to male and is competing with other males. | |
| Correct. | ||
| Yes, her friend. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Her friend went from female to male and is competing with other males. | |
| So Gavin doesn't have a problem with that. | ||
| First off, even the ending there, we'll have more in just a second, but even the ending there where Anna's trying to make sense of what a trans woman looks like, who's Skylar? | ||
| Who's playing ball with who? | ||
| All of that. | ||
| She also, no, she, he, Dylan, also sort of accidentally unwraps the whole thing right in front of us. | ||
| Tomorrow's your third anniversary of being trans, but I thought you were always a woman. | ||
| You were born a dude, but I thought you were actually always a woman. | ||
| What do you mean your three-year anniversary? | ||
| I mean, that kind of unmasks the whole thing. | ||
| I would like to say, as per Gavin Newsom, you know, Gav, this is exactly what you deserve. | ||
| Congratulations. | ||
| You went all in on this stuff. | ||
| All of you people went completely crazy now because you want to run for president. | ||
| You're doing your little reclamation project, and you're doing your podcast, and you're trying to moderate so you don't come off as one of the totally bananas people. | ||
| But Whoopi and Dylan and the other ladies of The View have to, in essence, destroy you now because they've gone all in on it as well. | ||
| So congratulations, people. | ||
| It continued on The View, and this really was the highlight clip. | ||
| Whoopi is just, it's the weed. | ||
| It's gotten to her brain. | ||
| Just stay off the weed, kids. | ||
| Well, I think part of the problem that the trans community is facing, and it's the same problem that women face, is if you don't know anything about our bodies, you don't know how it works. | ||
| So when you come in and you say, oh, you know, these men, these are men, you know. | ||
| Competing against women. | ||
| You're assuming that the women are weak and just can't do anything except be here. | ||
| Have you seen female athletes? | ||
| They know what they're doing. | ||
| So I'm not sure what's going on or why this is an issue. | ||
| The same for me as when people say, oh, you know, I don't know how I feel about you. | ||
| You do. | ||
| God doesn't make mistakes. | ||
| And the challenge is not to the trans people. | ||
| It's to the people who are not trans. | ||
| That's what God is looking to see, how you treat people. | ||
| Oh, Lord, there is so much there. | ||
| First off, the way you can see she's contorting herself because she's in a struggle session that she doesn't want to get pronouns wrong or say the wrong thing or be burned down. | ||
| By the very people she's radicalized. | ||
| So she's very uncomfortable as she's talking. | ||
| And then, of course, everything she says is complete and utter nonsense. | ||
| First off, no one is assuming that women are weak and dainty and everything else. | ||
| We are assuming, and it's actually not assuming, we are asserting, because it's true, that women are different than men. | ||
| Caitlin Clark is the best player in the WNBA. Get me Caitlin Clark's stats last year. | ||
| The girl averaged at least 20 points a game, right? | ||
| Probably eight assists. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| But she is the best player. | ||
| She has revolutionized women's basketball. | ||
| She would be the worst player, worse than Bronny himself, if she was in the NBA. It's not because she's a bad basketball player. | ||
| She's an incredible basketball player, but men and women are different. | ||
| Say, who's a tough chick? | ||
| Give me a tough chick. | ||
| Xena Warrior Princess? | ||
| Give me a reference. | ||
| Who's a tough chick that's out there these days? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Margaret Thatcher. | |
| Margaret Thatcher. | ||
| Who? | ||
| Gina Carano. | ||
| Gina Carano. | ||
| You remember Gina Carano from, she was in the Star Wars thing, and then I think, what did she say? | ||
| You don't have to be injected by some weird stuff, and then they fired her. | ||
| Gina Carano, she's a tough chick. | ||
| Imagine if she was boxing with Mike Tyson. | ||
| It would be, as the kids say, problematic. | ||
| Can I get Caitlin Clark's numbers last year? | ||
| What do we got? | ||
|
unidentified
|
She scored 40 points in the tournament game, first woman to do that. | |
| But what did she average last year? | ||
| But she had over 40 point games. | ||
| The point is, she's a good basketball player, but she would not... | ||
| Otherwise, if you think everyone's just equal, then why have a women's league? | ||
| Let's just have an NBA. Anyone can play in it. | ||
| There'll be, I don't know, what do they have, 30 teams? | ||
| 30 teams, 12 players on a team, and the best women will make their way in, except there will be literally zero women. | ||
|
unidentified
|
28 points. | |
| 28 points a game. | ||
| Those are Michael Jordan numbers. | ||
| If Michael Jordan had a vagina, which I'm pretty sure he doesn't. | ||
| Although I haven't checked Twitter this morning. | ||
| Anyway, let's jump back to old Gab's podcast because that's what spurred this whole thing. | ||
| Take a look. | ||
| It's like you right now should come out and be like, you know what? | ||
| The young man who's about to win the state championship and the long jump in female sports, that shouldn't happen. | ||
| You as the governor should step out and say no. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, and I appreciate it. | |
| But would you do something like that? | ||
| Would you say no men in female sports? | ||
| Well, I think it's an issue of fairness. | ||
| I completely agree with you on that. | ||
| So that's easy to call out, the unfairness of that. | ||
| Oh, it is easy to call out because you haven't been calling it out for the last five plus years. | ||
| Actually, your state, California, is ground zero for all of this nonsense. | ||
| It's in all of the schools. | ||
| You've been defending wokeness at every possible level. | ||
| So congratulations. | ||
| That's the point that connects it to the first clip with Whoopi. | ||
| You guys, Gavin, you ushered all of this in, and now the radical bananas people who don't understand gender or biology or anything else, they are now going to have to go after you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So good luck with all of that. | |
| The funnier part about all of this is that when you go... | ||
| Just against what is an obvious biological reality. | ||
| When you go against what is just true. | ||
| And again, that is not to say you should discriminate against people. | ||
| And I always say, you're over 18. You want to dress however you want. | ||
| You want to put on a wig and call yourself Mary. | ||
| If you're nice to me, I'll be nice to you. | ||
| But it doesn't change biological reality. | ||
| That's just true. | ||
| But the Democrats, because they went so all in on this thing, to the point that it basically destroyed the party as it became a radical bunch of lunatics plus the pro-terrorism stuff and all that, now they don't know how to message their way out. | ||
| Of this lunacy. | ||
| So check this out. | ||
| It's Representative Andy Kim, Adam Schiff, and more, Slotkin. | ||
| And they're trying. | ||
| You can see how they're just so confused about what do they do because it's true. | ||
| Men have penises and women have vaginas. | ||
| And how do you communicate that properly without upsetting people? | ||
|
unidentified
|
For me, it's like, let the local community figure this out, right? | |
| In Michigan, we have a process in place where if someone who's born a boy wants to play in women's sports, you have to get a waiver. | ||
| We've had it happen two times. | ||
| We want to make sure that these decisions are made by the communities, by the communities, by the schools and others that are the ones closest to us. | ||
| and understand. | ||
| What we know is that we're talking about a handful of people, a handful of athletes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Every young person, and I want those sports to be fair, I want those sports to be safe, and I have confidence that local schools and local communities can make those decisions without the federal government making them for them. | |
| This is rather remarkable. | ||
| The Democrats, who over the last couple of years, just think back to COVID, wanted everything to be done by the federal government. | ||
| The people. | ||
| Who wanted to make sure that the states could not make their own decisions as it pertained to you being injected with things or your kids going into school. | ||
| Suddenly now, because they're having to backtrack out of this, they've suddenly discovered the Federalist Papers. | ||
| They suddenly want things to be local and led by the state and the local community. | ||
| So I would say congratulations that you guys are finally learning what some of the founding premises of this country are about. | ||
| That's very nice. | ||
| But this idea that, okay, if we leave it to the schools and everything else, If we just step away and leave it all there, oh, they'll sign a waiver. | ||
| Okay, but what about, okay, so I don't know who you mean. | ||
| Who signs the waiver? | ||
| So the dude who wants to play with the chicks, he signs a waiver? | ||
| Or do you have to get all the girls that he's gonna compete against sign the waiver? | ||
| Maybe that would make more sense, right? | ||
| But they are so freaking muddled. | ||
| And this idea that it's just a few people. | ||
| Okay, it's just a few people. | ||
| So maybe you shouldn't have made it your party platform, you freaks. | ||
| Over on CNN, Van Jones. | ||
| We actually have a clip of Van Jones right now where he's not crying. | ||
| This is very exciting. | ||
| He's not crying, but he is upset about what's happened to the Democrat Party. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And then just lastly, Van, in terms of Democrats and where they go from here, this last week we did see them try to, some people try to protest during the President's address and then House leadership getting on to them, other Democrats calling them out. | |
| They still seem to be wandering around trying to figure this out. | ||
| What's your take? | ||
| Can we ask another question? | ||
| Can we talk about Ukraine or something? | ||
| No? | ||
| Look, man, we're screwed. | ||
| Democrats don't know what to do. | ||
| This is a nightmare. | ||
| Somebody like Donald Trump, we thought we'd at least have Hakeem Jeffries in the Speaker's chair to hold him back if we didn't have Kamala in there to do the right thing. | ||
| Listen, the Democratic Party is going through a massive set of internal crises. | ||
| You have a party that got trapped two ways. | ||
| One, defending a broken status quo that nobody likes because they thought that Donald Trump was going to make it worse. | ||
| But when you're defending a status quo, you're going to lose. | ||
| And then offending most people in the country, calling everybody sexist and racist and transphobic and every other name, and then saying, please follow us. | ||
| That's not a good strategy, folks. | ||
| You're right. | ||
| It's not a good strategy. | ||
| And maybe you should have been a little louder about that. | ||
| You know, he's still confused because the guy still thinks the country would be in better shape if Kamala Harris was in charge or if Hakeem Jeffries was sitting behind Donald Trump at the big speech in the speaker's chair. | ||
| And it's like, you guys all deserve this. | ||
| You really do. | ||
| And that is why it is my work for 2025 at a political level is to make sure the wide tent thing holds. | ||
| For 2024, it was bringing the wide tent thing together. | ||
| That worked out quite nicely. | ||
| Now I want to make sure it holds. | ||
| And there's reasons and fights, you know, on the far left and on the far right that can make that tricky. | ||
| But that's what I'm going to be focusing on. | ||
| But again, congratulations. | ||
| All did this to yourself. | ||
| And get this headline from CNN. No, sorry, from CBS. We might not be done with Kamala. | ||
| Kamala Harris to decide whether to run for California governor by end of summer. | ||
| Like, Tally, you are amazing. | ||
| You're an amazing woman, man, whatever you are, because you can always find a way to make things worse. | ||
| Can you imagine if California goes, like, how funny would that be? | ||
| That the next step for California is that they get rid of Gavin Newsom because he's going to go run for president or he's going to become a big podcast star. | ||
| And they bring in Kamala Harris. | ||
| I'm, you know, I know we're not gonna hopefully have to talk much about her over time, but this video over the last couple of days was going viral. | ||
| She gave a speech and the woman, we dodged a bullet. | ||
| Donald Trump literally dodged a bullet that nicked his ear, but we as a country dodged a bullet with this woman. | ||
| Here she is explaining consumer behavior through Doritos. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I was willing to give up whatever might be the tracking. | |
| Of Kamala Harris's particular fondness for nacho cheese Doritos for the sake of getting a big bag of Doritos as I watch the Oscars. | ||
| That's the consumer behavior. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And that's right, but here's the thing. | |
| At what point do we also uplift and highlight the consumer's right to also expect? | ||
| And you can debate with me if it should be a right. | ||
| I think it should. | ||
| To expect that the innovation would also be weighted in terms of solving their everyday problems. | ||
| What? | ||
| Which are beyond my craving for Doritos. | ||
| I'm sorry. | ||
| You're going to have to pull up that last 10 seconds again because I watched it during the rundown that we did. | ||
| But what? | ||
| It should be a right? | ||
| That what? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I was willing to give up whatever I think it should. | |
| To expect that... | ||
| The innovation would also be weighted in terms of solving their everyday problems, which are beyond my craving for Doritos. | ||
| I'm trying to write it out as we're doing this. | ||
| She wants it to be a right to expect that the innovation would also be weighted to solve their everyday problems. | ||
| You know, I'm a simple guy. | ||
| I like the Bill of Rights. | ||
| You know, free speech, right to bear arms, right to public assembly. | ||
| We could do a laundry list of them. | ||
| She wants to expect that the innovation would also be weighted to... | ||
|
unidentified
|
Do you understand how close to the precipice of hell we got? | |
| We did. | ||
| This is a couple months ago, but just to illustrate how the Democrats are just in such chaos. | ||
| This is a post-election, so post-Kamala losing. | ||
| Kamala Kamala, whatever the hell her name is. | ||
| And here's Bill Maher, who obviously is on the more moderate side of this whole thing, laughing at the idea of her running for governor. | ||
| Should Kamala Harris run for California governor in 2026 after polls show her leading? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm going to give that a big no. | |
| She's had a chance several times. | ||
| She should run far, far away. | ||
| Yeah, so the big no probably means, Bill, I hate to tell you, that she's going to be your next governor because every time they have an opportunity to go worse, they seemingly go worse. | ||
| Like, that basically is it. | ||
| Now we can strongly... | ||
| Put a dividing line between what's going on with the crazy Democrats at the moment and the Republicans, because the Republicans are doing a lot of good stuff right now, mostly with people who used to be Democrats. | ||
| Democrats. | ||
| We'll have more on that in just a moment. | ||

| While the Democrats are continuing to debate genitals and what their future should be, whether it should be Gavin Newsom or Kamala Harris or, I don't know, Sinwar, who the hell knows, the Republicans are doing a lot of good things. | ||
| And as I said, they're doing a lot of good things with people who were lifelong Democrats, I would say, at the top of that list. | ||
| You might have heard of this guy, Elon Musk. | ||
| Here he is sitting down yesterday with Larry Kudlow on Fox Business talking about the actually... | ||
| Obscenely absurd savings that Doge is now doing literally every day. | ||
| I'm just here trying to make government more efficient, eliminate waste and fraud. | ||
| And so far we're making good progress, actually. | ||
| So our savings at this point exceed $4 billion a day. | ||
| So it's very significant. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You think you'll wind up getting to a trillion dollars? | |
| Yeah. | ||
| The savings? | ||
| I mean, unless we're stopped, we will get to a trillion dollars of savings. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And that stuff can be translated. | |
| I mean, we've been talking, we had Russell Vogt, the OMB director, on earlier, through very rescission authority, empowerment authority. | ||
| I believe you said it earlier, it's an audit that will not gather dust on shelves. | ||
| This is actually going to wind up with real savings, bend the spending baseline down. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So look, once again, it's like when you're telling the truth, it's easy to say and it's not prepackaged and he doesn't have talking points and everything else. | ||
| But if we could save a trillion dollars a year and then you have a little more money in your pocket and the government doesn't need to print as much money, that's how things get reset. | ||
| So I understand the market is down a bit right now. | ||
| I opened up my accounts this morning. | ||
| The market's down. | ||
| It is. | ||
| That is true. | ||
| Markets go up and down, by the way. | ||
| But as Trump, we played the clip yesterday where Trump addressed it, and as Elon addressed during the election, there was going to be a little pain point as we do this, right? | ||
| Like, what did you think was going to happen when you really try to fix things? | ||
| Not say you're going to fix things and not do anything, but when you actually try to fix things, there's going to be a little bit of an adjustment period, a pain point, etc., etc. | ||
| The fact that they're even admitting that is so much more transparent than what we would normally get. | ||
| It's really... | ||
| Quite extraordinary. | ||
| So this next video that we're going to show you, this is a woman by the name of Kathy Wood. | ||
| She's the CEO of ARK, not ARK, the Jordan Peterson Conference Alliance for Responsible Citizenship. | ||
| This is ARK, which is a global asset management firm that specializes in thematic investing and disruptive innovation, focusing on technology like AI robots and energy storage. | ||
| Suffice to say, the woman is, let's say, on the forefront of the investment companies that are leading us into the future right now. | ||
| And I thought she had a really interesting thing to say about how what Doge is doing right now is actually going to lead, it's going to sort of co-lead this technological revolution that we're seeing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You know, I started in the business, well, I was in college in the late 70s, but really here in New York in the early 80s. | |
| And it was the Reagan revolution. | ||
| And he was changing. | ||
| I mean, the 70s were just a horrible decade. | ||
| And so there was a similar kind of an election and a willingness to change. | ||
| And, you know, I think we're well known for our Tesla research and our Tesla position. | ||
| You know, I don't speak to Elon that much, but when we talked about this topic, I said, government spending is taxation. | ||
| Government spending, that's how you sell this. | ||
| Surface everything that you find out there. | ||
| Because, you know, we haven't done that. | ||
| We haven't cleaned house in so long. | ||
| And I think, you know... | ||
| Elon is relentless, and he's got a boss who's also relentless. | ||
| So I do think it's going to be successful. | ||
| I think it's going to drive huge increases in productivity as well. | ||
| So Reagan revolution, I think this revolution will dwarf the Reagan revolution. | ||
| All right, so there's a couple things there. | ||
| First off, remember, the entire time that... | ||
| Post the Trump election, what I've been saying is we're going to get into an 80s style revolution. | ||
| What she's saying there, she said the 70s were horrible. | ||
| I mean, I'd have to ask Donna Summer about that. | ||
| I think she was having fun. | ||
| But meaning that they started basically this over taxation thing. | ||
| And that when you're basically, or the government spending thing, and that is a type of taxation, right? | ||
| Because it basically is just taking your money to do whatever the hell the government wants. | ||
| Clearly, if we've learned anything in the last 50 days or so, is that most of that is a huge, huge, huge freaking waste. | ||
| So if we stop operating like that, we might actually enter a Reagan-style Complete sort of explosion of the economy. | ||
| Something that she thinks will be bigger than what happened under Ronald Reagan. | ||
| Let me explain a bit more here. | ||
| So this is from Peter Diomedes. | ||
| Kathy Wood, that's the woman we just showed you there, just presented this slide in Abundance 360's 2025 Summit. | ||
| We're talking about disruptive innovation driving nearly 38% of the market by 2030, with those that resist change will shrink under the weight of technological... | ||
| Deflation. | ||
| The point of all of this is they want to transition or go back to a production-based economy as opposed to just sort of a based economy, right? | ||
| So we are going to lean into a service-based economy, I should say. | ||
| We're going to lean into technology. | ||
| And that if she is right, and about 38% of the economy is heading in that direction in the next couple of years, Then there could be an unbelievable boom. | ||
| I have a bit more from her. | ||
| In our view, the market today is discounting the last leg of a rolling recession, which will give the Trump administration and the Powell Fed many more degrees of freedom than investors expect, setting up the U.S. economy for a deflationary boom in the second half of this year. | ||
| So that really was the reason I wanted to show you that video and read these tweets. | ||
| A deflationary boom. | ||
| That basically what they're saying is we're sort of getting what she's saying. | ||
| We're sort of getting out of a soft recession right now, right? | ||
| There's been some debate during Biden's years. | ||
| Were we actually in a recession at some point? | ||
| Then they kind of changed the definition of recession. | ||
| It's X amount of months of lack of growth. | ||
| Doesn't even matter at this point. | ||
| What she's saying in the second half of this year... | ||
| That there could be this deflationary moment and things could start really turning around from the better. | ||
| But don't take my word for it. | ||
| Have you been on the computer? | ||
| There is now something called artificial intelligence. | ||
| Grok 3 is the big one. | ||
| That's really the one that I use. | ||
| That's the one on Twitter where they have their own app. | ||
| But let me read from them what a deflationary boom is. | ||
| A deflationary boom refers to an economic scenario where there is a period of strong economic growth, which is a boom, accompanied by falling prices or deflation rather than the more common inflation that typically occurs during economic expansions. | ||
| In traditional economics, a boom is characterized by increased production, rising employment, and growing consumer demand, often leading to higher prices, which is inflation, As businesses raise prices to meet demand or cover increased costs. | ||
| However, in a deflationary boom, prices decrease despite robust economic activity. | ||
| This could happen due to factors like significant productivity gains, like technological advancements, an oversupply of goods, or reduced production costs, which allow businesses to lower prices while still expanding output and profits. | ||
| Historically, deflationary booms are rare but have been observed during periods like the late 19th century in the U.S. when industrialization and technological progress, railroads, manufacturing, innovations, drove economic growth while prices fell due to increased efficiency and supply. | ||
| Did that all make sense to you? | ||
| Did that whole segment? | ||
| I know I don't like to do like the hardcore economic stuff. | ||
| Did that make sense to you? | ||
| That basically, as we clean up the waste, as we realize we don't have to take all of these people's money and tax them so much and put it into these things that are utterly useless, it's now going to basically be happening at the exact same time. | ||
| That tech is booming and AI is booming and industries are changing. | ||
| Thus, we could get this deflationary moment. | ||
| So it is rare and it's precious. | ||
| I just read you an example of when it happened last time in the 19th century with railroads and everything else, but we might be right there. | ||
| So I know everyone's a little worried about the economy right now. | ||
| I'm not gonna sit here and tell you that I'm an economist, but I think that there really are signs that things, that the combination of the AI revolution, of Doge, Let's continue with Doge a little bit, because it's still... | ||
| It still is just the center of the center right now when it comes to everything. | ||
| Like, were we going to fix this thing or not? | ||
| That's really what this is all about. | ||
| We can debate the genitals thing, and we can debate whether America is fundamentally racist, and all the other nonsensical things. | ||
| But the true granular thing we've all been really doing is, does any of this work? | ||
| And it's starting to work for us. | ||
| Here's Elon talking about some of his critics and how they don't really know what they're criticizing right now. | ||
| I don't want to interrupt, but Secretary of State Rubio just come out, I think he tweeted today, he has accepted over 80% of your recommendations to shut down in USAID. So your review and analysis was spot on. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| So I think when people criticize, say, what Doge is doing, we say, well, which part specifically? | ||
| Because we put all of the actions of the Doge team on the doge.gov website and on the Doge handle on X. | ||
| So we post the receipts. | ||
| So it's like this action has been taken. | ||
| This action has been taken. | ||
| So when we get criticism, we say like, of what? | ||
| Which line do you disagree with? | ||
| Like which cost saving do you disagree with? | ||
| And then people usually can't think of any. | ||
| They really can't. | ||
| Like, what is... | ||
| Look, I'm obviously on broadly what you would say is Team Elon, Team Trump right now, obviously. | ||
| But let's take whoever might be the biggest critic of what's going on here. | ||
| What are they criticizing? | ||
| They're criticizing that they're doing it. | ||
| They're not criticizing the programs, right? | ||
| Because there's no way to defend the programs. | ||
| Again, Conor loves the trans comic book in Peru, and we're still going to get it for you, one way or another. | ||
| Team Rubin Report will pay for it, but the taxpayer doesn't have to pay for that comic book. | ||
| That's the point. | ||
| So the people that are criticizing, and it's not just that they don't know what they're criticizing exactly, it's that it's being done transparently. | ||
| So as he said, you can go to the freaking website and look at what they're doing. | ||
| That's rather novel when it comes to the government. | ||
| Or go on X. Doge has a Twitter account, an X account, and see what they are doing. | ||
| And they are posting screenshots of the savings and the cutting. | ||
| This is government in a whole new way. | ||
| And the people who want to defend the old system are freaking out about it. | ||
| But yes, it's not just the Peruvian trans comic book. | ||
| No offense. | ||
| Here's Elon on one of the more interesting things that we were doing with some of this money. | ||
| Where you'll see the biggest outcry is from the... | ||
| The Democrats who are, they don't want the waste and fraud to be turned off because it is a gigantic magnet to attract illegal immigrants and have them stay in the country. | ||
| I mean, you see some of the crazy stuff like where money from FEMA, you know, which is meant, FEMA is an agency that's meant to take care of Americans in distress. | ||
| And a bunch of their money was being sent to pay for luxury hotels in New York for illegal immigrants. | ||
| And that was happening even after the president was elected, even after he signed an executive order saying that needs to stop. | ||
| So we actually made sure that that money did stop going, because obviously it's outrageous that American taxpayer money is spent on luxury hotels for illegals. | ||
| But you have to say, like, why was that being done? | ||
| It was because the Democrats are trying to import voters, basically. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| So doesn't that illustrate the point perfectly, right? | ||
| That's why they can't point to anything that really is bad. | ||
| It's just like, Elon is evil! | ||
| Oligarchy! | ||
| Trump is evil! | ||
| Because if you really look at what they've done... | ||
| Taking FEMA money, which is supposed to be emergency dollars and services to help people that have dealt with hurricanes or fires, some stuff that we've had to deal with in this country for the last year or two. | ||
| And we've decided to take illegals in sanctuary cities. | ||
| So people break the law, they come here, and they end up literally staying at luxury hotels in New York City. | ||
| And that is a fact. | ||
| It is 100% true. | ||
| Joseph's looking for a video that we shot when I was in New York City about six months ago. | ||
| We walked by the legendary, it's an iconic hotel, the Roosevelt Hotel. | ||
| It had been completely taken over by migrants. | ||
| We did a little video of me walking through it. | ||
| It was clearly not safe to be there. | ||
| And there are dozens, if not hundreds of people at different times throughout the day outside and little babies and everything else. | ||
| And I thought we were worried just, you know, two years ago about COVID. You've got all these people without masks. | ||
| Like, just the absurdity at every level, right? | ||
| The absurdity at every level. | ||
| You have people who are legal immigrants working at the hotel to feed and to make the bed of illegal immigrants. | ||
| That's what's going on over there. | ||
| Were we able to find that video? | ||
| Think we're working? | ||
| Yeah, we have it? | ||
| Yeah, okay, so this is, we're just throwing this in right now. | ||
| This is about six months ago. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right, we're in New York City. | |
| We're on 46th and Madison. | ||
| This is basically midtown New York City, and it's actually a nice day here. | ||
| The air is crisp, and we're just taking a walk around. | ||
| I want to see some of the sights here in New York City, and oh, we're approaching the world-famous... | ||
| Roosevelt Hotel this is one of the most iconic hotels in all of New York City and as you may note it's turned into a migrant shelter so we're gonna just walk through right now and as you can see it has turned into quite a situation here all of these people I oddly I'm paying for my hotel room while I'm here but all of these people know they're not online For a Broadway show. | ||

|
This is to just be part of America, I suppose. | |
| A lot of kids, I guess. | ||
| That's good. | ||
| Then military-age fighting men. | ||
| But yeah, huge line outside. | ||
| No English. | ||
| Several shady-looking people not thrilled that I'm taking a video right now. | ||
| Like the guy right there. | ||
| And okay, good talk, good talk. | ||
| That guy was definitely not happy with me. | ||
| I gotta tell you, when I posted that on Twitter, I got so much hate and called a racist and a xenophobe and everything else. | ||
| But that illustrates the Elon point right there. | ||
| That's just the people that were outside of the hotel. | ||
| The hotel was maxed out with illegals who were already inside, and you... | ||
| Paid for it. | ||
| And if Kamala Harris was still president, was president right now, they'd be doing more and more of that. | ||
| So that is what we are unfurling right there. | ||
| And it's like, look, that is not a shot at any of those people. | ||
| America basically told them to come and they came and America basically said, we'll give you shit. | ||
| And they said, we'll take shit. | ||
| So do I have sympathy for those women out there? | ||
| And certainly for the kids that are out there, little babies that are out there and everything else. | ||
| I absolutely do. | ||
| But it doesn't make it right. | ||
| We will have more on sort of the craziness of what's happening as the fraud gets exposed in just a moment. | ||

| Okay, so we obviously focus a lot on Doge specifically, and Doge is sort of the umbrella because it's going into all of the agencies, into all of the departments, and looking at the budgets and everything else. | ||
| One of the ones that is really going to get people going crazy, of course, is the Department of Education. | ||
| Now, Linda McMahon, who's worth a couple billion, married to Vince McMahon, that's big wrestling money, okay? | ||
| She... | ||
| Took the job to head up the Department of Education, basically, as she said, to put herself out of work. | ||
| She doesn't need the job. | ||
| She wants to go in and hack away at it. | ||
| Should we have this giant monolith in D.C. that is telling everyone and all the schools and all the administrations everywhere and teachers and everything what to do and how to teach and everything else? | ||
| Do you think that centralized system makes sense when you now realize that we've had 20 years of kids thinking that their genitals don't match their gender? | ||
| That was a question for you. | ||
| What do you think, you on the other side of the mirror? | ||
| Randy Weingarten is the head of the Teachers Union, and the Teachers Union, of course, basically is just a giant Democrat slush fund, and they want centralized control over everything. | ||
| She realizes her power is running out, and here she is having a full-on mental breakdown because the Department of Education is likely going by the wayside. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This is why so many people are so mad about it, because they're just taking opportunity away from kids that don't have it. | |
| So, billionaires, kids are billionaires, they have it. | ||
| They go to private schools. | ||
| Everyone else, 90%, go to public schools. | ||
| Don't take away their opportunity. | ||
| Sue, let's stay on the facts. | ||
| Sorry. | ||
| No, do not apologize. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm really angry about this. | |
| No, because this is what people need to hear. | ||
| I taught kids in Clara Barton High School in Brooklyn, New York. | ||
| You crocodile-tiering wench. | ||
| You were the one at the teachers' union who led for school closures for two-plus years over COVID. Do not give me that nonsense. | ||
| You're upset and you're crying because your slush fund is coming to an end. | ||
| You're going to be out of a job. | ||
| And you're going to have to go do something for a living, although I'm sure you made millions and you're probably good to go. | ||
| And also, the analysis is so dumb to the point that the host on MSNBC says, can we stick to the facts? | ||
| Because yes, the billionaires are coming in to make sure that their kids can go to school and nobody else can go to school. | ||
| That's the level of the analysis here. | ||
| No, they're trying to take out a giant... | ||
| Government agency that has basically stolen money from everybody and made children stupider. | ||
| Is there anyone walking around that's thinking that the public education system is great? | ||
| It was great in this country for a long time. | ||
| I am a child of public education. | ||
| I went to public education, elementary, junior high, high school. | ||
| I went to public education, SUNY Binghamton in New York. | ||
| I got a... | ||
| Fairly decent education, I would say. | ||
| That was before a lot of these schools were taken over by terrorists and everything else. | ||
| And back then, you would walk into a class and there would be a bathroom. | ||
| One was for men, one was for women. | ||
| You figured it out. | ||
| That's the way it used to be, but it's not the way it is anymore. | ||
| And it's largely because of you. | ||
| So now you're losing your power because of all of the insane things that you did and you were upset. | ||
| What they're trying to do by getting rid of the Department of Education is kick it all back to the states. | ||
| And then there's all sorts of things like school choice, which... | ||
| I'm very proud to say Florida is leading on, which then would lead you so that you'd get some sort of tax credit and you could figure out, okay, there's a public school that's near me. | ||
| Public school is pretty good, so I'm going to send my kid there. | ||
| Or the public school is not near me. | ||
| I'm going to use this tax credit and send my kid to the charter school. | ||
| Or I'm going to throw in a little bit more of my money and I'm going to send them to a private school. | ||
| Choice. | ||
| And competition so that there's better quality of education as opposed to giant machine up here, gets a lot of money from the people, tells people to send their children to government-run schools so they become obedient and genderless. | ||
| That doesn't sound great to me. | ||
| Eric Daughtry over on Twitter wrote this just to more further illustrate how crazy the Democrats are going right now. | ||
| And you know this woman, Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro, who ranted about President Musk on the House floor, sends letter to leadership concerned that Elon Musk quashed the first spending bill because of his ties to China. | ||
| One key provision that Republicans' new government funding bill stripped out, a bill to screen U.S. investments in critical sectors in China. | ||
| She says that President Musk does not want to see a funding deal containing this provision because it might threaten Musk's bottom line. | ||
| It is extremely alarming that House Republican leadership, at the urging of an unelected billionaire, scrapped a bipartisan, bicameral, negotiated funding deal. | ||
|

|
So, Lady, yen. | |
| It is so thin to think. | ||
| Just really think about it. | ||
| Do you think that the world's richest man who could be doing literally anything right now. | ||
| That he's spending all night working, figuring out government ways so that he could be a little more rich. | ||
| It doesn't stand up to the most, like, base-level scrutiny. | ||
| Now, Elon saw that tweet. | ||
| He responded with this. | ||
| I'm concerned that a dangerous Skeksis somehow made it into the Capitol building. | ||
| And guys, I'm pretty sure that was my joke because, yes, you remember this last week? | ||
| There's Rosa DeLauro right there. | ||
| Skeksis. | ||
| She is a Skeksis from the Dark Crystal. | ||
| And if you did not see the Dark Crystal reboot, it's only a one season. | ||
| They didn't pick it up for season two, unfortunately, but it was really, really wonderful. | ||
| It's by the Jim Henson's long gone, but it's by the Jim Henson people. | ||
| They rebooted it on Netflix for one season. | ||
| It was really, really wonderful. | ||
| And it's actually got an interesting political story if you have not seen it. | ||
| Anyway. | ||
| As the Skeksis take over, as the genderless and the angry teachers' union people go hysterical and all of these things happen, what it's doing is ginning up that crazy base. | ||
| And it doesn't take much to get these people to go crazy. | ||
| What's happening now is that there are at various Tesla... | ||
| Stores, facilities, shops, whatever you want to call them, all over the country. | ||
| And at some of the charging stations, there have been protests and graffiti. | ||
| There's been a little bit of violence. | ||
| Here is someone protesting Doge and very scary Elon. | ||
| And, well, take a look. | ||

When you wake up or when you're on your weekend and you get the fork in the road message or you get the subsequent five bullets, hey, what the hell did you do, you lazy federal worker, this week? | |
| What do you mean is it that someone on X, the owner of X, speaks to you directly to say, what did you do last week at work? | ||
| And if you don't answer, I am going to fire you. | ||
| But even more egregious, the president comes out, the most powerful person in the land, and endorses that message. | ||
| Guys, is there something happening out there that I need to know about that this woman's wearing a mask? | ||
| Is there some sort of issue? | ||
| Or maybe she just escaped a mental institution? | ||
| Again, guys, it is the most lowest common denominator to ask someone what they do for a living. | ||

Ran the live shows. | |
| Ran the live shows. | ||
| Now, do you see people? | ||
| None of that was offensive or over the top or anything else. | ||
| That was pretty base level nothingness. | ||
| But that's what these people, these masked wackadoodles are upset about. | ||
| Let's continue because one of the reasons that so many of these people have broken brains is because the mainstream media has... | ||
| Utterly failed in their duty to be the fifth estate, to be the thing that calls out the power and everything else. | ||
| And one of the guys who it's just such a damn shame that he became part of it is Jon Stewart. | ||
| And I know he's not that relevant anymore. | ||
| Some of you know, I interned at The Daily Show back in 1999. I had a couple nice moments with Jon, so I don't like dunking on him like this. | ||
| But in some ways, a lot of this falls at him because... | ||
| For years, we were told that most young people get their news from The Daily Show. | ||
| And he could have kind of been a sane middle ground or called out some of the craziness on the left. | ||
| Instead, he went all in on all of the woke stuff. | ||
| And he became, I think, the thing that he probably would have been making fun of maybe 10 years ago. | ||
| Anyway, here he is talking about Hungary's state-controlled media and makes a connection to what's going on in America. | ||
| This is just so wild. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Take a look. | |
| So you're saying if you have a media machine that purposefully lies to its people to maintain a political fiction and get themselves power, that that is the hallmark of an authoritarian system, not a democratic system? | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Well, if we were ever to get something like that in the United States, we would be horrified, furious, to know that... | ||
| There was an entire media organization designed to bend reality, to manipulate facts, to maintain power. | ||
| If I may, and I'm not trying to slam Hungary, it would never happen in the United States. | ||
| It's just not... | ||
| I almost can't even conjure it. | ||
| Imagine it. | ||
| It must be very difficult. | ||
| What happened to him? | ||
| Really, I mean, what happened to him? | ||
| Everything he just described right there, he's going off, obviously, on a Hungarian journalist. | ||
| It's like everything he's talking about right there, that's what we did. | ||
| It took us.07 seconds to find this compilation. | ||
| You tell me, do we have a mainstream media that lies to the people to manufacture consent? | ||
| Does the president have the stamina, physically and mentally, do you think, to continue on even after 2024? | ||
| Don, you're asking me this! | ||
| The most difficult part about a meeting with President Biden is preparing for it because he is sharp Intensely probing and detail-oriented and focused. | ||

| Guys, let's talk about Lean in a bit, and I'll give you a warning. | ||
| We're going to show you an Ilhan Omar clip in the next segment. | ||
| So if you've got to go to the bathroom, this is probably your time. | ||
| Are you stuck in the yo-yo dieting cycle? | ||
| You lose weight, gain it all back, plus a few extra pounds, then do it all over again. | ||
| It's not just frustrating, it's dangerous. | ||
| Studies show that repeated weight fluctuations can increase your risk of heart attack, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and other serious health problems. | ||
| That's why doctors created Lean, a supplement designed to help you lose weight and keep it off. | ||
| Unlike injections, Lean is a natural science-backed formula that requires no prescription. | ||
| It works by supporting healthy blood sugar levels, controlling appetite, and burning fat by converting it into energy. | ||
| If you're tired of losing weight just to gain it right back and you're ready to lose weight at a healthy, sustainable pace, Lean was made for you. | ||

| All right, let's talk about Ilhan Omar for a minute, because we've been talking about crazy Democrats. | ||
| And, you know, I consider her in that sort of AOC. It's now run by Jasmine Crockett, Rashida Tlaib, Banana's group of America-hating progressive Democrats. | ||
| Here she is basically calling you racist. | ||
| I want to follow up with something else because we recently had one of your Republican colleagues, Brandon Gill, on the show. | ||
| He said that America would be better off if you were arrested and deported. | ||
| He also said that there was audio of you advising what he said or illegal immigrants here from Somalia on how to evade ICE detection. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I want you to respond to that. | |
| Yeah, I mean, again, you know, these are people who have really... | ||
| Stopped caring about our institutions. | ||
| It is red meat for his base that are xenophobic and racist to say to them that I am going to find a way to arrest and deport a member of Congress who he thinks is doing something wrong when I am doing the right thing in trying to make sure everybody that is within my constituency has the resources and the information that they need. | ||
| Alright, you know my feelings about her. | ||
| We don't have to overanalyze it. | ||
| She did marry her brother, which created an immigration problem that she's going to probably have to be dealt with. | ||
| But I'm more interested in that clip about her. | ||
| You know, yeah, you're racist. | ||
| Okay, we're all racist. | ||
| Fine. | ||
| Is that her? | ||
| Do-rags, or whatever you call them, have gotten more festive over time. | ||
| And I think that's interesting, that such a miserable woman who hates the country so much is always in a more festive headdressing. | ||
| We were able to find video, this is a Rubin Report exclusive, Joseph just found this on the internet just moments ago, of what her headdresses used to look like. | ||
| So this is from about five years ago, if I'm not mistaken, this is incredible. - Harry Potter. - Well, this is incredible. - Harry Potter. - Well, well shit. | ||
| Now I'm going to be in trouble. | ||
| Anyway, look, we've let in people into this country who hate us. | ||
| We've let them into the government. | ||
| We've allowed criminality to run rampant. | ||
| And people have just had it. | ||
| It's enough already. | ||
| If you ask anyone in France or Germany... | ||
| Or in UK, like, should we just let it? | ||
| Should we become what you guys have become? | ||
| They would say, no, they're looking at us to fix all of this. | ||
| And one of the guys who really has become, you know, he gets overlooked a little bit, ironically, is J.D. Vance, our vice president. | ||
| He gets overlooked because Elon has just loomed so large. | ||
| But J.D. has just done such a bang-up job from the day... | ||
| Trump asked him to be VP, to going to that debate and absolutely mopping the floor with Tim Walz, to virtually everything he has done since. | ||
| And here he is talking about mass immigration and why it is causing problems for Americans. | ||
| Americans, just you, me, your brother, your cousin, other people. | ||
| We've also, unfortunately, made it way too easy for people to compete against American citizens for the precious homes that are in our country to begin with. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You go across the world and you see a very consistent relationship between a massive increase in immigration and a massive increase in housing prices. | |
| and we have to be honest about that. | ||
| Well, I see one of our nice representatives out here wants to actually, I guess, continue to flood the country with illegal immigrants, making your communities and citizens unaffordable. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| He just does a nice job. | ||
| He knows how to work the crowd. | ||
| He knows how to deal with the heckler. | ||
| You know, we showed you that video yesterday where he's out and about with his three year old daughter and some of these hysterical Ukraine people are yelling at him. | ||
| And he calmly, he's the vice president of the United States. | ||
| He doesn't have to stop for anybody. | ||
| Takes about seven minutes of his time to thoughtfully give them answers on things, which of course there's never an answer that's good enough. | ||
| But what he's talking about there is just the basic stuff that we all know. | ||
| If you just flood a country with people in the name of what Gad Saad calls suicidal empathy, you will eventually commit Harry Carey as a country. | ||
| And that's why Europe, as I just said, is looking to us, man. | ||
| If you guys fix it a little bit, maybe we can find some good people here who will fix it. | ||
| That really is what the world is looking at right now. | ||
| And by the way, we largely have done it. | ||
| Our numbers at the border are completely collapsing. | ||
| We've deported a ton of people. | ||
| But the main thing is that people now have the message you can't just show up. | ||
| And that in and of itself, that's not even a law or anything else. | ||
| But the message that is emanating from America is not that we don't want any immigrants. | ||
| We don't want illegals. | ||
| And there has to be an orderly way of knowing whose This is just fantastic. | ||
| Check this out from Bill Malusian over on Fox. | ||
| Scoop, the Trump administration has repurposed the controversial Biden era CBP program, one cell phone app into a self deportation app called CBP Home that launches today. | ||
| DHS tells me any migrants who had the prior CB1 app will have to auto-update it to this new app. | ||
| And DHS can use data from prior CBP1 registrations to track migrants for removal. | ||
| The new app allows illegal aliens and migrants into the US to register with CBP to self-deport. | ||
| They fill out biographical information, including their countries of citizenship, which country they plan to return to, their alien registration numbers, contact info, and it allows them to upload photos of themselves to confirm their identity. | ||
| All of it is then submitted to CBP and they leave the country. | ||
| You may be asking yourself, why would an illegal alien want to self-deport? | ||
| In a statement to Fox News, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem answers that question. | ||
| The CBP home app gives aliens... | ||
| The option to leave now and self-deport so they may still have the opportunity to return legally in the future and live the American dream. | ||
| If they don't, we will find them, we will deport them, and they will never return, Noam said. | ||
| The Biden administration exploited the CB... DHS says it's significantly cheaper for the U.S. if illegal aliens decide to self-deport and limited ICE resources can instead be used to target criminal aliens. | ||
| According to CBP data, roughly 40,000 to 50,000 migrants were entering the U.S. every month via the CB1 app during the Biden administration, So if you're | ||
| out there and you're selling meth to kids and you came over illegally, update your app. | ||
| That's what you need to do, and then get the hell out of here. | ||
| But it's also a beautiful thing, what Noam said there. | ||
| So the idea here is, if you do this, if you're here illegally, we're coming for you now. | ||
| That's what we're saying, right? | ||
| Especially the criminals. | ||
| We're not coming for every single person, and they still have to figure out what to do with the Dreamers and everything else, right? | ||
| It's mostly right now coming for criminals and the people that just got here in these last three years. | ||
| This isn't really about people that came here 12 years ago, and there has to be some discussion about all of that stuff. | ||
| But that's separate from this. | ||
| What we are trying to do right now is basically clean up the mess of the last four years. | ||
| And it's largely being cleaned up because they've stemmed people from coming in. | ||
| That's one part. | ||
| The signal went out. | ||
| Don't come. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| And now they are literally saying to people, hey, if you're here, it's okay. | ||
| It's okay. | ||
| If you ever want, we're going to find you. | ||
| So if you ever freaking want a chance of coming back, update your app. | ||
| Upload your pictures. | ||
| Head on home. | ||
| And then maybe you can come back. | ||
| But if we get you, if you don't update that app, you got to get to some Wi-Fi. | ||
| Get over to a Starbucks. | ||
| Get some Wi-Fi. | ||
| Update that app. | ||
| Because if you don't, you're never coming back. | ||
| And that's a mature, decent, I would say, tech-forward way of dealing with some of this nonsense. | ||
| Let's connect this to what I started the show with today, which is that there was this massive attack on Twitter. | ||
| Yesterday, it was on and off all day long, which again, just try to imagine if X was down for 24, 48, 72 hours. | ||
| How our ability to communicate with each other would be. | ||
| What would you be reliant on to get news from? | ||
| Et cetera, et cetera. | ||
| Like, how would we all be communicating? | ||
| It's an important thing to think about because the attacks are here. | ||
| Check this out from Breaking911. | ||
| A hacking group called Dark Storm Team announces on Telegram that they are behind taking down X multiple times today. | ||
| Dark Storm Team's history points to geopolitical motives and are pro-Hamas. | ||
| Okay, so we will find out more about that. | ||
| Elon did tweet out that it was a massive, massive attack. | ||
| They, you know, he's going to have to figure out how do you make sure that X stays up when it is, when they're going after your servers and they're attacking the cloud and all of those things. | ||
| Like, there are massive technological questions. | ||
| I would just take this moment, once again, if you are not following me on Locals, that is how I can always communicate with you directly. | ||
| And we're on the Rumble cloud, which Rumble completely controls. | ||
| It can't just be taken out like Amazon, AWS. Absolutely free to join rubinreport.locals.com. | ||
| That way, if something goes down, I can get you. | ||
| You get push notifications. | ||
| Okay, fine. | ||
| As Elon has done all of this stuff, as he has cleared out the brush, as he has fought for free speech, as he has made sure that your dollar and your bank account will be worth what it should be worth and not just at the whims of inflation and everything else. | ||
| He's just getting attacked relentlessly by everybody. | ||
| We've shown you some of the mass crazy people at the Tesla things and some of the others. | ||
| Here is Elizabeth Warren. | ||
| Again, Elizabeth, she's a fake Indian to get into Harvard. | ||
| That's why Trump calls her Pocahontas. | ||
| She's worth somewhere between 20 and 60 mil. | ||
| Probably people should look into that because she's only paid about, I think it's like 180 as a senator or something like that. | ||
| So that's kind of interesting. | ||
| And here she is going after Elon. | ||
| Senator, it strikes me that in your remarks in Texas, you talked about how this administration, and particularly this president, are not keen on anyone who is not willing to bend the knee. | ||
| You had your colleague, Senator Mark Kelly, visiting Ukraine over the weekend in response to that decision to visit one of our allies. | ||
| Elon Musk called the senator, quote, a traitor. | ||
| Your thoughts on Musk calling your colleague a retired astronaut, a retired U.S. Navy captain? | ||
| A man who has served honorably in our military, who has built his life around public service. | ||
| And Elon Musk sits over there on his bags of money while he fires veterans, while he... | ||
| Fires people across the workforce who are needed. | ||
| You know, the way I see this is, Elon, you better keep hiding behind those bags of money, because we know in America who really stands up for people, and that's Mark Kelly. | ||
| What? | ||
| I don't know what kind of threat that was, that she just levied there, but that was a threat, and I think she'll probably regret it. | ||
| It's interesting when she's talking about a man who has served honorably. | ||
| She did not vote for Tulsi Gabbard for head of DNI, a woman who is currently serving, well, now she's not because she's the head of DNI because she did get confirmed, but has been a member of the military. | ||
| You didn't vote for her. | ||
| You didn't think she was quite honorable, did you, you fake Indian? | ||
| No, you didn't do that. | ||
| But this is what the divide is about right now. | ||
| The divide is about people... | ||
| It's going to be a little messy, and we're going to try to change things, and we're realizing that we're in this technological revolution, and that an old world is going away, and a new world is ushering in, and we've got to deal with it in mature ways. | ||
| And just because you have a job, if you can't tell people why you have that job, it doesn't mean you should have that job forever. | ||
| Like, there's real change happening right now. | ||
| Any of us, any of us that are Americans, we have to kind of pick a side on this. | ||
| Pick an ideological side. | ||
| It doesn't mean you have to vote specifically a certain way all the time, but you have to pick a side. | ||
| Do you want to be with the people that have built things and created things and changed the world, or do you want to be for people that are just trying to protect the system that clearly isn't working anymore? | ||
| My friend Peter Thiel, who was in here just a couple weeks ago, if you didn't see the interview, it's up right now. | ||
| I had him back on in 2018. This is well before. | ||
| This is literally two, three years before Elon ever thought about buying Twitter. | ||
| And they founded, they co-founded PayPal together about 25 years ago. | ||
| And I asked Peter Thiel what he thought about Elon. | ||
| You know, my number one rule is never to compete with Elon in anything. | ||
| So, you know, I would never bet against Elon. | ||
| It's been like this, you know, I was a close partner visit PayPal in the... | ||
| In the late 90s, early 2000s, and after PayPal, Elon set out to start both the rocket company and the electric car company, SpaceX and Tesla. | ||
| And I think the conventional wisdom on Elon was that these were both completely harebrained projects. | ||
| If one of them had succeeded, you'd have to sort of question it. | ||
| When both of them succeeded, it suggests that he knows something other people don't. | ||
| Isn't that something? | ||
| And isn't that right? | ||
| We say all these things all the time, and they're just like nothing. | ||
| It's like, oh, he's sending rockets, and oh, he's building tunnels underground, and oh, he's having the paraplegics play chess, and Neuralink, and all these things. | ||
| And it's just like, oh, he's just doing things. | ||
| But most of these things should have failed. | ||
| They were, as Peter said, harebrained ideas that no one else could have made happen, come to fruition. | ||
| But he did it. | ||
| And that's the guy that they hate now that he's spending his time not for a dime. | ||
| And again, if you think that he's doing this for tax cuts or so that he can send his kids to school and make sure your kids don't go to school, you should have your head examined. | ||
| We'll leave you with a little inspiration from Elon. | ||

My workload went up from about, I don't know, 70 to eight hours a week to probably 120. Yeah, go to sleep, I wake up, I work, go to sleep, wake up, work, do that seven days a week. | |
| I'll have to do that for a while. | ||
| So which way, America, America, do you | ||
| want to be on the side of the people that are vandalizing Tesla chargers right now and wearing masks and screaming about how do you want to be on the side of the people that are vandalizing Tesla chargers right now and wearing Or do you want to be on the side of the people who are trying to uncover waste, who are trying to get us through this technological adolescence into the technological future? | ||
| Which side do you want to be on? | ||
| I think it's pretty damn obvious, but we are going to have to keep fighting because they're going to keep fighting, and I think it would be best if we don't lose this fight. | ||
| That is our program for today. | ||
| We do have a post-game show at rubenreport.locals.com. | ||
| In a moment, as I mentioned, we got that. | ||
| It's completely free to join Locals. | ||
| You throw in a couple bucks if you want to help keep us independent and communicate with me directly. | ||
| But that is the key. | ||
| If any of these sites go down, and it does seem as we enter this technological war, it is, I use the word war for a reason. | ||
| Like, could they come after all the servers and everything else? | ||
| So please do join us. | ||
| Again, you don't have to throw in any money. | ||
| You just want to join us so we can stay in touch if all hell breaks loose, because it would be nice to communicate at the end of the world. | ||
| Anyway, postgame show in 30. Otherwise, we'll be back tomorrow. | ||
