dave rubin
Hello, and welcome to the Rubin Report.
I'm Dave Rubin.
We have a tremendous show for you today.
The date that you're looking at at your calendar right now is July 29th in the year 2025.
We are live streaming on Rumble, YouTube, and locals.
Share, subscribe, tap that notification bell.
And as you good people know, we have been on the march for the 3 million YouTube subscriber number, the 750 on Rumble.
And as of a moment ago, we screenshot it for proof.
We are at 2,999,297 subscribers.
That means we are basically 700 away.
I think we can do it in this hour.
And then the question is, okay, you're doing me a solid, right?
You're subscribing to the show.
I'd like to think I'm giving a little something back to you.
You get the videos occasionally, although that's not really how the subscription button works.
You think it's how it works.
It's not exactly how it works.
You also have to tap the bell to get notified.
But putting all that aside, you'd be doing me a solid.
So what I thought I would do is you a solid.
So if we get 700 subscribers during this live stream, what I have here is a second jar of Sidney Sweeney.
I keep wanting to call her Cynthia Sweeney.
Sidney Sweeney's bathwater.
Now, on yesterday's program, I drank a jar of Sidney Sweeney's bathwater.
People were very excited about it.
The comments were crazy.
Went mega viral, as they say.
I've got another full jar.
I will chug the jar of Sidney Sweeney's white supremacist bathwater if we get the 703 subscribers that we need.
And Joseph, you're running the prompter today about halftime during the show.
Why don't you give me an update so that we can continue to push the people?
Because I am thirsty.
I'm parched.
I'm a little parched this morning, to be quite frank.
I took the dog on a long walk.
It's hot out there at the end of July in Miami.
And okay, here we go.
We're going to start.
How do I shift this?
I'm being kind of over-the-top sarcastic.
Got to start with some bad news, actually.
So the New York City shooting yesterday, which left a police officer dead and several other people injured, we're going to cover that.
And of course, we'll cover the media reaction to it because surprise, surprise, CNN got the skin color of the person wrong.
They claimed it was a white person.
It turned out to be a black person.
We're going to connect that, the sort of assault on police, which we're seeing, which is just part of everything that's happening mostly in blue cities.
We're going to connect that with a bunch of other Democrat policies.
Then a couple trade wins for Trump, particularly as it pertains to the EU that we covered yesterday.
Trump's now with Kier Starmer, and they're doing some back and forth on some things.
And he got Starmer a stammering when it came to immigration.
And then we'll finish up with a very simple question that I would say is consistent with some of the questioning that I often ask you here, which is which way do you want to go, America?
I think it's fairly obvious.
But all right, let's get going here.
And we will start with what happened in New York City yesterday.
This from the New York Post.
Rifle touting, New York City shooter critically injures three, including cop, before turning gun on himself inside Blackstone and NFL headquarters.
At least one police officer was shot at the scene and is in critical condition.
Another civilian was shot and is also in critical condition, police said.
Video of Fox says an NYPD officer was inside the lobby and the shooter walked in and shot him.
And then you can see the image there of the shooter.
Now, before we do anything else, so one police officer was killed.
His name is Didral Islam.
He was from the 47th precinct.
From everything I've read and heard from some of his colleagues, he was an absolutely stand-up guy and decent human being.
And he did not deserve to die yesterday.
Now let's unpack some of, you know, everything comes around to, you know, there's always these issues.
And what do I always say?
It's the narrative around the issues that in some sense matters more.
Like there's the horrific murder of a police officer who did not deserve to die.
Several other people shot, the general state of chaos in New York City when this happened and everything else.
That's the important part.
But in the internet world that we live in, the narrative part ends up being the more important part because that's the part that's sticky, right?
That's the part that then people start talking about and everything else.
Now, of course, when these shootings happen, there's an immediate knee-jerk response where certain people, because they're so obsessed with the narrative, they start, you can feel it with people if you're on the Twitter.
You can feel it with people like they kind of are waiting and hoping that it'll fit their narrative perfectly.
So whatever skin color you want the person to be or whatever religion you want them to be, so that it helps benefit your narrative.
In this case, here is CNN twice within about a 50-second clip claiming that the shooter is possibly white.
Can you put up the image of the shooter first one more time, Connor, so that we can just, everyone get this in your head?
Does that look like a white person with the gun?
Okay, blah, blah, blah.
We'll have more on him in a second.
But here's CNN doing what CNN does, which is completely fabricating stories as they break.
unidentified
Scene.
Shimon, you're here.
John's reporting that they do know what the looks like.
Male, possibly white, mustache, sunglasses in that building, isolated to, they believe, to various locations, including upper floors is where they're focused.
What are you learning, Shimone?
All right.
So, Brian, stay with us.
The deputy, former deputy director of the FBI, Andy McCabe, is with us as well.
And Andy, I just want to ask you, you talk about a 40-floor, a 44-story building, as Brian is reporting.
And what John Miller just said, there were a few things that really stood out there.
Among them, that they do know what he looks like.
Sunglasses, mustache, male, possibly white.
And that they were all...
dave rubin
And they said it twice.
Now, if they were not sure, where are they getting this information?
And if they're not sure, why say possibly white?
They say possibly white because they desperately, regardless of this person's motives, which we'll have more on in just a second, and why he perhaps did it or what his psychological condition was or anything else, they would prefer that the shooter be white, right?
They don't want it to be a black shooter.
We all understand all this.
It's why on any given day, when we can get the numbers, somebody give me the numbers, how many people were shot in Chicago this past weekend?
When it's black people, particularly shooting black people, they really want to bury it.
But even if it's black people shooting white people, they want to bury it, right?
They want white people to be the bad guys and black people to be the good guys.
It really is as simple as that.
16 were shot in Chicago over the weekend, three dead.
Note, you did not see that on CNN or virtually any mainstream media.
Again, it does not fit the narrative.
So someone, it seems to me that in a case like this, where we're now in the internet age, where CNN is running as fast as it can to report the same way everyone online is running, whoever told, what's her name?
What's her name?
Erin Burnett, possibly white, whoever wrote that in her prompter to say it, possibly, like find that person and fire them.
They were not possibly white.
They were black and everyone was reporting that online already.
So unless you are intentionally trying to confuse people, unless you are trying to push a narrative, like fire somebody.
Of course, nobody will be fired.
Here's Fox with a bit more on what actually did happen.
alexis mcadams
Who was in the lobby of this building in Midtown?
Sees this guy come in.
Before he knows it, we're told in the security footage, he pulls out a gun, shoots the security guard, and kills him in the lobby.
They rushed him to the hospital, but they weren't able to save him.
So that police officer was hit by this gunman that we're told was wearing a bulletproof vest in this Midtown skyscraper.
Everything that's in this building, we know from working in Midtown, Jesse, you know, these big buildings, there's lots of security usually.
Like other buildings, you have to card to even get into the elevators.
In this 44-store building, the guy was able to go right up, but they had Blackstone, NFL headquarters, and more.
People that are in there right now, also civilians, were wounded.
dave rubin
Okay, so there's a couple interesting things here, which if that report is correct, the fact that he was able to go right up seems a little odd to me in that if you've been to any of these big buildings in New York City where they have major media companies, they have sales companies, they have all sorts of things, right?
Like Fox News is there.
You have all sorts of giant corporations, accounting companies, whatever it might be.
I've been to a million of these buildings, taken meetings at a million of these buildings.
They have, you know, entertainment companies there, et cetera.
There's always somebody downstairs where you have to show ID.
Most of them now have, because of the nature of what has happened in New York City, they often have, you know, glass doors that you can't get through.
Otherwise, you can get into the lobby, but can't pass through without some sort of pass, checking in with somebody.
The fact that he was able to get up there sounds like something.
But now, as for that possibly white person, here, of course, is an image of the shooter, possibly white, probably not white, I guess we could say that.
And it does turn out, as you can see there, he has a concealed firearms permit from Las Vegas, and his name is Shane Tamura.
I suppose we will find out more about him.
But again, putting aside the specifics of perhaps why he did it, it sounds like maybe there was a football injury and he wanted, the NFL was in the same building, something like that.
But putting aside the specifics of that, what I'm interested in right now is in the narrative.
So I want to show you this video.
I think we showed you this.
We've showed you this probably twice before, actually.
Let's go back about a year ago.
This is, you may remember when there was a shooting at the 2024 Kansas City Super Bowl Parade, and they discussed it on real time with Bill Maher.
And at that point, the mainstream media had not yet said the color of the assailant.
Online, we all kind of knew it.
Here's Ann Coulter talking about that.
bill maher
I mean, we don't know who did this shooting, by the way.
The Super Bowl shooting.
ann coulter
We have some idea.
bill maher
What?
ann coulter
If it were a white man shooting, we'd know.
bill maher
Well, we don't know.
ann coulter
That's how we know it's not a white man.
I can tell you that much.
bill maher
You think they're repressing that reporting?
ann coulter
They wouldn't tell us about that transgender woman that shot up the Christian school for what, like a year?
Oh, San Bernardino out here.
Remember the crazy terrorist Muslims?
That's when I first noticed.
Hmm, they're not telling us who it is.
It's not a white male.
The longer they go without telling you, it's not a white male.
bill maher
Okay, well, we don't, for this one, for right now, as of Friday night, February 16th.
dave rubin
We know.
bill maher
We don't officially know.
Okay, you know, you have special powers.
dave rubin
I love you, Bill, but no, it's not that Anne had special powers.
She understood what the narrative is.
And it was already for that show was on a Friday night.
It had been breaking for about 24 hours.
Here is an image, and you tell me if he's possibly white, of the Super Bowl parade shooter.
I guess also possibly white.
If the real emphasis there is on possibly, then I suppose he is possibly white.
Now, of course, besides the narrative, the narrative always is around race or political ideology first.
That's what people are always going for first.
And then, of course, what happens after that is that, in this case, it's always the Democrats that do this.
What happens?
There's a shooting.
And rather than discussing mental health, rather than discussing actual ideological reasons people might do this or psychological conditions, et cetera, et cetera, what do they always go to?
Well, it's grabbing the guns.
Here is New York State Congressman Richie Torres, who is not, you know, when I talk about that very, very short list of not completely insane Democrats, he's kind of on that list.
Like, he's not full bananas woke, but of course, what does he want now?
He wants the guns.
ritchie torres
And I find it to be absolute insanity that we allow weapons of war to just flow freely on the streets of America.
And even though New York State and New York City have the strictest gun laws in the nation, those gun laws can only take you so far if guns can easily cross state boundaries.
And this is exactly what happened here.
abby phillip
And in New York, is your understanding that it would have been easy for him to obtain this AR-15 weapon if he purchased it here?
ritchie torres
I think it would have been easier for him to obtain it in Nevada.
I mean, we have much stricter gun laws here in New York.
But again, what we desperately need is a national ban on military-style weapons because we have far too many guns in America, far too few regulations of those guns.
dave rubin
I'm going to curse here.
I'm going to curse you.
Ready?
Everyone, get ready?
Do you have the beeper?
I don't know if you can bleep me or anything.
Just no, mother come for the guns.
It's the Second Amendment, and you're not coming for it.
I have two AR-15s here that is to protect my family and my property.
And if someone breaks into my house or is on my property without being invited, they are going to be shot.
That is your God-given right protected by the Second Amendment, by the Bill of Rights, by the Constitution.
And yes, you also, you seemingly don't understand anything about either the law or the human condition.
Because as you said, you guys already have crazy, strict gun laws.
I think he said the strictest in the country.
That's somewhat debatable to me as to whether it's Cali or New York on that.
So you already have the strictest gun laws and it doesn't stop anything.
Chicago, crazy strict gun laws does not stop the shootings.
Why are there way more shootings every weekend in Chicago than there are in Florida?
I'm going to guess per capita, Florida.
Maybe we can find this out.
What state has the most per capita guns?
I'm going to guess that Florida has way more per capita guns than Illinois does.
But why does Chicago have shootings?
Because it's not about the weapon.
If you are holding a hammer, yes, you could crack it over an old lady's head and kill her.
And yes, you can also hammer in a nail and start building a home for shelter.
So it is a tool and it is what you decide to do with it.
So if your reaction every time there is a shooting is to go after someone's God-given rights to defend themselves, then you are lost, man.
You are lost.
I'm sorry.
You cannot come for our guns.
That's number one.
We did get some info here.
Actually, Wyoming, this doesn't surprise me at all.
Wyoming has the most guns per capita.
And I'm going to guess, I'm going to go out on a limb here that when it comes to random shootings, Wyoming is very low on the list.
Now, there's not a ton of people in Wyoming.
That's true.
But it also creates a culture where people are a little less inclined to do bad things.
When we show you all of the example I always give, it's the same one.
When we show you all of those videos of these lunatic mobs of kids rampaging through stores and stealing all the stuff, they steal TVs and blah, blah, and they love going into Lululemon.
And I like those tank tops too.
And they grab Lululemon and they run with it.
Well, you can do that in Cali because nobody's going to do jack shit.
The police are afraid.
They don't want to arrest anybody.
You're actually allowed to steal under $800 worth of items.
But in Florida, because people have guns, you might get shot.
And that might, let's say, guide you to being a little more civilized.
So Richie Torres, I know you are not completely insane, but you are 100% totally wrong on that.
We'll connect this now to ideology because New York City obviously has an incoming communist and he is not good when it comes to policing at all, but first lean.
Have you heard of Karaluma?
It's an edible cactus from India known for its appetite suppressant effects and it's one of the key ingredients in a powerful supplement called lean.
If you've got bold weight loss goals but don't want to deal with injections, lean might actually be what you're looking for.
Formulated by doctors, lean is the closest thing they've seen to the benefits of those popular shots without the needle.

All right, people, we're getting numbers on the fly.
We have gotten, since the live stream began just now, about 100 new subscribers.
We're about 600 away from the three mil.
If you want to see me chug Sydney's.
Yeah, Connor, sorry, you're going to have to film it.
That's how we do it around here.
Sidney Sweeney's bathwater.
There you go.
All right, so let's connect this to what I would say at this point is the obvious end conclusion for New York City and by extension, all of these blue cities.
They seem to have no ability to course correct.
And even in these brief little moments where they defund the police and they slightly walk it back, then they go worse.
We know that people are fleeing these cities.
It's impossible for somebody.
Imagine if you wanted to open a brick and mortar store somewhere in New York City.
You'd have to be a brain-damaged buffoon because at any given moment, Antifa, Hamas, Hamas Tifa, Tifa, Hamas, whatever it is, can just throw a rock through and burn your store down and nobody is coming to save you.
So it is getting worse in New York City.
And Zorhan Mamdami, likely full-on communist, intersectional psycho-communist, will likely be the mayor of New York City.
Here's what he tweeted about the incident yesterday.
I'm heartbroken to learn of the horrific shooting in Midtown and I am holding the victims, their families, and the New York police NYPD officer in critical condition in my thoughts.
Grateful for our first responders on the ground.
All right, first off, no, you're not holding anyone in your thoughts.
You don't give a fuck about any of these people.
You exist to destroy New York City.
And also the idea that you care, particularly that you care about the NYPD officer is absolutely absurd.
Here, somebody, I'm going to speak through it, but as you can see here, this is his X feed, the amount of times that he has written defund the police.
You see it?
So you can search defund the police with his name and you're just getting time after time.
This is just a small portion of the amount of times he has demanded to defund the police.
So you could have, thank God they didn't fully defund the police, at least to the extent that someone like you wanted, because Eric Adams, who sucks, is actually not as completely insane as you are.
But if you had defunded the police to the extent you wanted, then nobody would have been there to stop that guy.
And there would have been way more dead people.
So you can spare me your crocodile tears.
And if in case defund the police, in case that little video we just showed you isn't just like a bumper sticker enough, there he is very, very specifically no we want to defund the police psychopath psychopath but here's more from the psychopath queer liberation means defund the police what the flying fuck does that mean queer liberation queer liberation what does that mean what does
that mean?
And Zorhan, do they do gay weddings at your mosque, right?
Are there a bunch of lesbos who throw up the hijab and kiss at your mosque?
I'm going to guess not because there are zero mosques in the United States that do that.
So you're a bigot.
You're a bigot.
And somehow I think that makes you a racist by their logic too.
Queer liberation means defund the police.
Actually, proper policing and law and order, that helps the queers because they're a minor the queers, whatever the hell you mean, the furries and the weirdos that helps them actually, when you have proper policing, because it's the jihadists, you know, it's your crew that don't like them very much.
You're using the queers for Palestine in just so you can attain power.
Like we see it, man.
We see, I know that there's a bunch of retards in New York, so maybe they don't see it, but the rest of us see it.
And we live in Florida where there is guns.
Um, here's a FBI agent, shredding Zorhan, uh, for trying to replace cops with social workers.
nicole parker
When I hear someone say, let's replace police officers with social workers.
That is the most asinine thing I have ever heard.
If you want the violence in your city to continue and for these shootings to continue, you go ahead and do that.
But for anyone that supports a candidate that believes in replacing NYPD officers with social workers, I have no words for you.
Evil people like this individual who did the shooting today, they do not care about gun laws.
They do not care about any laws.
It literally is a battle between good and evil.
And I agree with Senator Kennedy.
There is a distinctive evil and it is very powerful and it is very strong.
It is so crucial, Sean, that we have wonderful, law abiding, heroic police officers there to protect us, not only in New York, but in every city across the country.
And as a former FBI agent, I will tell you unequivocally, it is not the FBI that keeps you safe every day on a day to day basis.
It is local law enforcement.
They are the ones that are responding to the calls on a daily basis, day in and day out.
dave rubin
Yeah, that is true.
And you really need to understand what's going on here because these things, you know, things happen slowly and then they happen very fast, right?
Like it's, it's like, and then it all drops off a cliff.
So think about what has happened for the last five years, COVID, BLM, defund the police, all of those things.
We know that literally thousands of NYPD officers have fled New York City.
Many took early retirement because they were not getting backed by the administration.
Originally it was Bill de Blasio, then it was Eric Adams.
So they just retire early.
They just get out.
So these are the, these are the old school cops of New York City from the days I used to live there.
And they were, they were good people and they lived in the community and they were part of the fabric of New York City, right?
So a certain set of good people just retire early.
Then a whole bunch of other officers.
I don't know if we can get the numbers on this because I don't know if it's public.
Can you find out how many NYPD officers have left and New York and come to Florida to be police officers here?
You may remember DeSantis was offering, during the height of COVID craziness and BLM and all of that shit, he was offering bonuses for good officers, good qualified officers who just didn't want to deal with an administration that was throwing them under the bus to come here.
So then again, in the state where things are working, where people are also armed and take their protection into their own hands, and we already have proper policing, we got stronger policing.
So the degradation of the NYPD, we also know that what is the other thing the NYPD had to do because they were purging so many numbers, the amount of people that fled and the amount of people that took early retirement, they had to literally lower their standards when it came to physical requirements, meaning that they had to then take fatter people and people who couldn't run as fast, et cetera, et cetera.
So what do you end up with, with then having a potentially incoming communist mayor who has dozens of times said defund the police?
Where do you think you will be left with?
This is interesting.
2,516 officers left the NYPD last year alone, last year alone.
Good luck, New York.
Good luck.
That's, that's all I have to say.
Good luck.
And it's, by the way, it is not only New York and it months ago, pretty damn good track record with this kind of stuff.
Uh, but once it starts happening in New York and they'll be able to float it for a little, a little while, because remember the Democrats control the foot soldiers, the Democrats control the violent mobs.
So when they want the violent mobs on the street to go after Tesla stuff, remember it just all turns on and then they can turn it off.
When they want Antifa in the streets to burn down things, they can turn it on and turn it off.
When they want Hamas, they can turn it on and turn it off.
Right?
So what they are going to do is if Zorhan gets in, they're going to turn it off.
It's going to look good for a little while and that will give it energy to scale.
Now we know communism and growth and government run goes grocery stores and all those things don't work over time.
Obviously it takes the human part out of everything.
You're all just a cog in a system that doesn't care about you, but this thing is already starting to scale.
People see the energy behind mom Dami and now they've got this guy.
We've talked about him before who just won the Democrat primary in Minneapolis, Omar Fatah.
And here he is talking about how Zorhan is the catalyst for the movement.
al sharpton
What do you think about that comparison between you and Zorhan?
omar fateh
Well, Zorhan's win was not only making huge waves in New York, but here in Minneapolis and across the country, I think it's important for the Democratic Party going forward to make a decision on what kind of party that wants to be, not only in our local mayor elections that we're seeing, but
in the midterms and beyond what we're seeing in our local elections uh nationally is that this is the type of catalyst moment that we need right now to bolster not just democratic organizing but participation across the country especially when republicans made huge strides last election in gaining the traffic the presidency as well as the both chambers of Congress.
The amount of support we've seen from every corner of the city has been energizing, especially since we've gotten endorsed last week.
We've seen a huge momentum and fundraise.
dave rubin
Good luck.
Good luck.
So that guy defund the police.
He wants to bring Somalia to Minneapolis, his home where he actually never lived.
We know all about what happened in Minneapolis and broadly in Minnesota during the BLM riots.
That's where Ilhan Omar is.
And again, okay, so now it's like throwing gremlins in water.
Now they're going to start multiplying.
So you've got Mom Dami, you've got this Omar guy, and we will see how many more start popping up.
And it's going to happen in big cities, and there's going to be a flight from big cities like you cannot believe.
And at some point, the responsible red states are going to have to figure out entry taxes or a series of other things.
As you know, I've encouraged our good governor here in Florida to dig a giant moat between Florida and Georgia.
That's our main border, a little bit of Louisiana, throw some gators in there, maybe lasers on the heads.
We'll see what happens.
I don't know if he's moving on that, but we'll check in a little bit later.
So what could the Democrats do?
Because, as you know, every one of us watching this, and my family as well, there's always, everyone's got a Democrat in their family, and they're not all completely insane.
I mean, most of them are totally bananas at this point, but there's always some, well, I'm nice and I'm a liberal and I'm, you know, well, what you might want to do, you've run out of time, I think, but what you might want to do is try to figure out where are the good people around you.
But even the good ones, as I pointed out earlier with that Richie Torres guy, they're wrong on just so many things that I just see no purpose of the party in some sense.
But another guy that is, let's say, not a complete communist socialist lunatic, but is just a nothing Democrat and does not know what to do is former Transportation Secretary Pete Budigej, a man who was mayor of South Bend, Indiana, was completely unqualified to be Transportation Secretary, did jack shit during his tenure as Transportation Secretary.
He's got a beard now.
And as a bearded man, I can appreciate that the beard does make him look a little bit better.
But here he is doing what Democrats always do, which is rather than take stock of what's going on in their party, there's an orange man out there.
We don't like him.
What?
pete buttigieg
It's that when you have an autocrat in power, he can get away with appointing incompetent people over very important things in our lives.
So right now we have the Secretary of Defense in charge of defending the American people, who is accidentally texting military strike information to journalists.
We have the person in charge of American public health, who is a quack who doesn't believe in medicine, and now measles is on the rise in America.
dave rubin
Okay, so Pete.
So first off, he's talking about, obviously, about Pete Hagseth, and then he's talking about RFK.
The idea that they are not qualified than their Biden counterparts is completely absurd.
I have absolute faith in both of them.
Bobby Kennedy, particularly, has fundamentally changed this country already.
There are thousands of restaurants that are already changing things as it relates to seed oils.
There are companies that are voluntarily getting poisonous dyes out of cereals.
What he has done, and all he's done is question vaccine schedules and everything else.
You abject buffoon, Pete.
And Pete Hegseth has been nothing short of he's getting wokeness out of the military.
He's leading with strength.
He's competent.
He looks the part.
He knows how to communicate.
These are all, and, but, okay, fine.
I've said nice things about the Republicans.
That's easy to do.
Why don't we go through the list of competent people that Pete was working with?
Here's, well, look at this crew.
There's Rachel Levine.
That's a man with a penis dressed up as a woman who didn't turn into a chick until he was about 40 and was very, he said the proudest moment of his life was having his kids.
That's a little strange, even though he wants to chemically castrate children.
The dude in the dress there is Sam Brighton, who was in charge of like nuclear waste or something.
Turned out he was literally stealing suitcases at airports and wearing women's lingerie that he didn't own.
That's Kamala Harris.
She was an alcoholic with brain damage who cooed the previous president.
Johnny Allen, I don't know, whatever.
She didn't know inflation was, or she thought inflation was transient, but meh, whatever.
Corinne Jean-Pierre, black lesbian.
My God, give her the Nobel Peace Prize.
And there's Alejandro Mayorkes, who the only thing he's qualified for is to be a model at an eyebrow convention.
So it's just everything with these people.
But Pete, what did you do, Pete?
Well, listen to this from the Associated Press.
You may remember.
Pete Budigej launches $1 billion pilot to build racial equity into America's roads.
Because there's nothing like when you're driving on a road and you have a white car and a black car and they're driving next to each other and then the black car just explodes because that happens often.
And of course, that billion-dollar pilot program never happened, you unqualified buffoon.

Let's talk about balance of nature and then we'll have more on Trump and some other stuff in a second.
dave rubin
Running out of air.
Let me ask you something.
How many different fruits, vegetables, spices, and fibers have you eaten today?
Be honest, if you're like most people, probably not enough.
In fact, over 90% of Americans don't get their recommended intake of dietary fiber, let alone the variety our bodies need from real whole foods.
That's where balance of nature comes in.
These supplements are unlike anything else out there, and here's why.
They're made entirely from 100% whole fruits, vegetables, spices, and fibers.
No added sugar, no artificial ingredients, and no attempts to mimic nature.
They simply let nature do its job by delivering powerful phytonutrients found in 47 real food ingredients.
The fruit and veggie supplements alone contain 31 ingredients from mango, pineapple, wild blueberries, spinach, tiitake mushrooms, kale, and even wheatgrass.
You can take them with water, chew them, or open the capsules and add them into whatever you want, like a smoothie.
Then there's the fiber and spice blend, which is truly one of a kind.
It combines four whole fibers with 12 aromatic spices.
It's clean and flavorful, and it's even good for your gut.
Everything's made under the current good manufacturing practices, third-party tested for quality and packaged with care.
And yes, they're vegan, kosher, and gluten-free with ingredients you can actually pronounce.
Invest in your health with supplements you can trust.

Guys, you see how much talking I'm doing on a day-to-day basis?
I am thirsty.
I need liquid, man.
I've got Sidney Sweeney's bathwater right here, and I want to chug this whole thing for you on the internet.
As of right now, we got another 100.
We have 2,999,000.
I have 455.
We got two more, even since you could screenshot that, my friend.
That means we need about what?
We need about 500 plus in the course of the next half hour.
I'm going to drink this.
You're going to feel good about yourself.
What a day.
And we'll crush some commie.
All right, here we go.
What else is happening in the world on the good front?
Let's get out of the blue cities for a minute and the endless misery that those sick bastards are subjecting themselves to.
Let's talk about Donald Trump and what's going on with this EU trade deal.
We talked about it yesterday, but Trump basically got the EU to completely bow to giving us better deals.
This was exactly what the tariffs were all about.
It was a threat to get people to the table.
And of course it did.
And months later, we're seeing where the deals land.
They are landing quite clearly in the pro-America camp.
Here is a compilation of CNN even admitting that Trump's EU trade deal is pretty, pretty spectacular.
unidentified
The early reviews are in on the new trade deal announced with the European Union.
The Financial Times says the deal marks a victory for Trump.
Is this a fantastic deal then struck by Donald Trump?
jeff zeleny
Absolutely a victor on behalf of the Trump administration.
The bottom line is this is the biggest trade deal in President Trump's effort to effectively reshape the global trading order.
unidentified
On this deal, the European Union, this is a big win for the U.S. The bigger picture is that Trump is still very much pursuing his longer-term goal of achieving what he perceives to be fairness for America.
terry haines
It's a triumph of a lot of things.
Certainly the president ought to take a victory lap.
I think it ends up being good for the European Union.
It's a blow against the convention.
dave rubin
Okay, so that was obviously more than CNN.
That was Bloomberg News and a couple other things.
But virtually everybody right now is looking at the numbers.
They're fairly easy to look at and being like, oh, we got a better deal than we had.
And sometimes reality just smacks you in the face and you can't deny it.
Now, I want to read this interesting Twitter thread.
This is by a guy by the name of Stern Drew.
He's a crypto influencer on X, and he broke down some of the benefits right here.
Listen to this.
It's a bit long, so bear with us here.
Trump just brokered the most one-sided deal in modern history.
No one's talking about the real reason why, because it was a bailout disguised as a trade deal.
Let's connect the dots.
Listen to this.
One, Trump forced the EU to pay 15% tariffs on exports to the U.S., accept zero tariffs on U.S. goods, commit to hundreds of billions in U.S. energy and arms, but that's just the surface.
Let's go deeper.
Why would the EU agree to such a humiliating deal?
A region known for decades of trade protectionism suddenly surrendering their leverage?
Because Trump didn't walk in with diplomacy.
He walked in with leverage they couldn't ignore.
During his first term, Trump strengthened NATO dependency on U.S. energy, shifted military manufacturing dominance back to the U.S., dismantled the EU's ability to form an independent energy bloc.
The trap was set years ago.
Now Europe's hooked on American fuel and firepower.
Meanwhile, Germany is deindustrializing.
France is burning internally.
Italy and Spain are buried in debt.
The EU needs America badly, and Trump knew exactly when to strike.
He threatened the EU with tariffs, who in turn threatened Trump that they would turn to China.
Desperation?
Some say the deal was unfair.
But what if it wasn't a deal at all?
What if it was a bailout disguised as trade?
The EU got survival, Trump got leverage, and America got paid.
They laughed at Trump in 2018 when he warned Germany about energy dependence on Russia.
Now they're begging for LNG, power, weapons, and political power from the U.S. Beneath all of this is the elephant in the room, the Ukraine black hole.
Billions in EU funds drained, war fatigue setting in.
Trump knew if you control their fuel and their defense, you don't need to win an argument.
You dictate the terms.
Trump's building the economic trapdoors that lead back to American dominance.
And who is unhappiest?
France, the globalist puppet.
How is the deal finalized?
Before this deal was struck, Trump threatened 100% tariffs on EU cars, steel, and luxury goods.
In return, EU leaders panicked.
Von der Leyen even hinted at pivoting to China.
Brussels thought they could bluff.
Trump called it and flipped the entire board.
So ask yourself, why would Europe agree to a deal that looks one-sided on paper?
What did Trump offer behind the scenes or what did he threaten to expose?
This isn't just diplomacy.
This is the art of leverage.
Okay, so there is a lot in that.
We will see where some of this shakes out.
But by every account, even on mainstream media now, they're golf clapping Donald Trump.
So there was a whole lot of stuff set up here.
The particular line in that that I thought was most interesting is the 2018 line.
Remember when Donald Trump, Trump 45, remember when he gave the big speech at the UN General Assembly and he talked about how Germany particularly is going to regret not being energy independent and the Germans laughed at him while he was giving the speech?
Well, they're not laughing anymore.
We just got a phenomenal trade deal that, on top of everything else, includes a tremendous amount.
We covered the numbers specifically yesterday.
A tremendous amount of revenue for the United States.
But here is Commerce Secretary Howard Luttnick talking about that.
howard lutnick
Well, remember, the European Union is $20 trillion economy, 450 million people.
I mean, it is head and shoulders bigger than all the other Western civilizations.
So the fact is the European Union is the monster deal.
President Trump did that deal yesterday.
We were all together in Scotland.
We got the deal done.
So here are how it goes.
The European Union is going to pay 15%, and they sell us $600 billion worth of goods.
That's $90 billion for America.
And they agreed for the first time ever to cut all their tariffs, cut their barriers, and let American businesses and farmers and ranchers and fishermen finally sell into the European Union.
Massive market.
This is huge for America.
dave rubin
All right.
So that is what it is.
It is massive.
We're getting an influx of cash.
We have Europe more dependent on us.
We called their bluff, which everything they do is a bluff.
This all, it never had to get this far.
We owe all of the blame to previous Republican, Democrat and Republican, and and, not or, and Republican administrations who let us be the world sucker.
We were the world leader and then we let the inmates in to run the asylum and Trump said no more.
So now I want to show you this video because, as you know, I like to slowly drag my friend Bill Maher over to the good side and I want to be gentle and nice.
And Bill, I sent you some Copal.
You'll be enjoying that.
But here he is on Club Random Podcast admitting that he was wrong about Trump's tariffs.
Again, which only three months ago, it was fairly obvious to some of us that this was about negotiations and leverage, which is exactly now.
And how it has all worked out.
But I will give credit where credit is due.
It is good when someone acknowledges that they were wrong.
Here's Bill.
bill maher
I remember I, along with probably most people, was saying at the beginning, oh, you know, by the 4th of July, somebody had to think how the country was, the economy was going to be tanked by then.
And I was kind of like, well, that seems right to me.
But that didn't happen.
Now, it could happen tomorrow.
I'm just saying that's reality.
So let's work first from the reality of that, not from I just hate Donald Trump.
Because that's boring and doesn't get us anywhere and leads you to dishonesty.
Because the truth is, I don't know what his strategy is.
But look, the stock market is at record highs.
I know not everybody lives by the stock market, but I also drive around.
I don't see a country in a depression at all.
I see people out there just living their lives.
And I would have thought, and I got to own it, that these tariffs were going to sink this economy by this time.
And they didn't.
So, you know, how do we deal with that fact?
Because that's the fact.
dave rubin
Okay, so first off, I have a quick correction to make.
You know, I'm not above making a correction.
I accidentally said that Florida, I said they were mostly a border with Georgia and then we aborted Louisiana.
I meant to say Alabama.
Obviously, it's a smaller border there.
Putting that aside for a second.
Bill, I'm going to give you credit.
The mea culpas are important.
The things, acknowledging that you got things wrong, I just did it.
I have no problem doing it.
And it's a mark of, I think, a good person, particularly in this space, in the political space where everyone wants to get you and clip the video and share it.
It is very good when you could say, I was wrong about something.
So look, when Trump announced all these deals and the market, remember, the market crashed, like crash, crash, crash.
We had three really bad days and people were like, this is it.
It's the recession and it's the Great Depression, part two, and all of these things.
I never felt that.
I never sold hysteria to you.
You can go back to all of those videos, but I was watching it and I was concerned and I didn't know if it was going to last three days or a week or a month or whatever.
But I thought it was exactly what Trump had, Trump and Elon, if you remember, during the campaign had said there's going to be pain points along the way because you don't just fix the, things don't just get fixed like, oh, okay, we fixed it like that.
Like to actually fix things, you're going to have to negotiate the mark, the world markets.
I'm going to react in a certain way.
So the stock market did crash.
It is now as high as of, I think, yesterday.
It is as high as it has ever been.
Bill is right.
When you drive around, people do have a little bit more.
We know that gas is a little bit less.
The price of eggs and meat and other things has come down a little bit.
All of that stuff.
And then as per the deals themselves, I would say, Bill, you've come a long way.
And maybe this is the last, perhaps this is the last little thing you need to see as proof that Donald Trump does actually know what he's doing.
So you're with him on free speech.
You're with him on foreign policy.
You're with him on a lot of these things.
You've now broken bread with the guy and realized that he's actually a lot nicer and kinder than Barack Obama and more authentic and all that.
And so maybe the last piece of to connect everything, because you are an honest guy, is going, oh, and he actually did know what he was doing with the economy.
So I'm in no sense sharing that to own you.
I'm sharing it to give you kudos.
And again, we always want to be as gracious as we can when people are kind of coming over to reality.
Let's talk about the wellness company for a second.
I will get an update on the subscriber number, and then we will continue with more wins from the drumster.
Most people don't realize that pork is one of the top sources of parasites worldwide.
The WHO and CDC both listed as a major source of tapeworms and toxoplasmosis.
And research shows pork's poor detox pathways make it easy for parasites to thrive and spread.
If you eat pork or sushi, travel, have pets, or just want to protect your gut and immune system, it's smart to do with the medical-grade parasite cleanse at least once a year.
That's why the wellness company created the Ivermectin and Mebezadol Parasite Cleanse, a powerful combo that helps flush out parasites and supports your immunity and digestion.
Just fill out a quick intake form and get a for-use medical grade cleanse delivered to your door.
Head on over to TWC.hell slash Rubin and use code Rubin to save $90 and get free shipping.
Don't wait.
Your gut will thank you.
All right, guys, we've got some updated numbers.
We now have 2,999,501.
That means we need 499 subscribers to hit 3 million while I am live on air so I can drink Sydney Sweeney's bathwater.
I can't show you everything, but you can maybe see the number right there.
499 people, people.
Look at that.
You're off by one, Connor.
You're a minute behind me over there.
Let's continue with a bit more from Trump and what's going on with Europe.
So he met with UK Prime Minister Kier Starmer, the other guy, the other day, or yesterday, actually.
And this guy's name, his name is Starmer.
It should be Stammer.
He is such an unimpressive, like perfect politician who says nothing and looks like a deer in the headlights and everything else.
So, this from Eric Daughtry.
We'll show you the video while I read the tweet.
President Trump is continuing the optics of hosting UK Prime Minister Kier Starmer in his own country, in his own country.
So, get this.
Now, he flew Starmer to Aberdeen in his plane, Air Force One and helicopter, Marine One.
And Eric wrote, I think Starmer is even forgetting who really is the visitor and who is the host.
This comes after Trump greeted Starmer at his property in Scotland.
Trump is such a gracious host.
You get this?
So it's Trump's plane.
It's Trump's helicopter.
Trump's property.
There is a shift that is absolutely massive.
And it's well beyond just the tariffs.
America is leading again.
And thank God.
You know, I've told you guys many times when I was in London for Jordan Peterson's ARC conference, there were representatives of over 200 countries there.
And I kid you not, virtually every single person who came up to me from all these different countries all over the world, they were thanking God that Donald Trump is president again.
Because if the United States is back, if we can lead, if we can be proud again, if we can be a moral force for the world, if we can not just force countries to do things, but say, get on board, get on board America, America-ism, which is exactly what Donald Trump said in Saudi Arabia a couple months ago.
We can fix the world.
These countries cannot do it themselves.
They don't have enough brave people.
Somehow we do.
Here is Trump and Starmer talking about illegal immigration, and I think you will see that Starmer is really Stammer.
donald j trump
Well, immigration is a big factor.
And I think, frankly, if they're coming from other countries and you don't know who they are, are they coming from prisons?
We have them where they came in from prisons.
We're moving them all out.
We had a border last June, just recent, you know, last month.
We had zero people come into the country, zero, other than come in through legal means.
If you're stopping immigration and stopping the wrong people, my hats are off to you.
You're doing not a good thing.
You're doing a fantastic thing.
So I know nothing about the boats.
But if the boats are loaded up with bad people, and they usually are, because, you know, other countries don't send their best.
They send people that they don't want.
And they're not stupid people.
And they send the people that they don't want.
And I've heard that you've taken a much stronger stance on that.
keir starmer
Yeah, we've done all the work stopping them coming.
We just signed an agreement to return them.
And we've returned 35,000, in fact, on the first year of this Labour government, the people who shouldn't be in this country.
So we're very pleased that we're getting on with returning people who've got no right to be here.
donald j trump
That's great.
As somebody that loves this, I love this country.
unidentified
My mother was born in, as you know, my mother was born in Scotland.
All right.
dave rubin
So there's something very funny here because congratulations, first off, the boats that they're talking about, that there are these migrant boats that keep showing up on their shores.
And it's always military fighting-age men.
There are no women.
There are no children.
There are no old ladies holding one suitcase or anything else.
And they just show up at the beaches and they run on.
And I'll tell you, when a bunch of guys who have been on a boat from Africa or from the Middle East show up at a Paris beach, I know that they're talking about the UK there, but they show up at a beach in France with a bunch of women showing their boobs, it's not going to end well for the boobed lady.
And in some countries, they still have women with boobs.
It's incredible.
But okay, so there's Starmer saying, okay, well, we got rid of 35,000.
Well, okay, even if that's true, you've let in millions and millions.
So here is when he turns into stammer.
unidentified
The President makes it look easy dealing with illegal migration.
You must be envious of his record in such a short period of time.
keir starmer
Well, I think we've been discussing irregular, illegal migration is a huge issue in both of our countries.
In the United Kingdom, it is a real cause for concern, and that's why we must bear down on it.
dave rubin
We must.
Does anyone know who the Prime Minister is?
unidentified
Because maybe he could do something.
dave rubin
So again, without the United States, look, I have no faith that this guy will fix his country.
Out of all of the countries in Europe, I think the UK is set up for failure.
I just do.
It's very sad.
I love the people there, many of the people there, but I just think they've let in too many people.
They don't have enough good men left.
Like, the castle is going to be taken over by the jihadis.
It will be on this guy's head.
Maybe it buys him an extra week of survival.
Like, who knows, you know, to placate to them or whatever it is.
But the question was right.
Trump made it look easy.
How did Trump make it look easy?
It's not that easy, but you have to have, you have to win.
You have to have a mandate.
You have to have a will.
You have to have competent people around you.
And then how is it that in the previous clip, zero illegals came into the United States after in June, after 21 million came in in four years?
So Starmer, to whatever extent he wants to survive, better thank Donald Trump.
He should be on his knees thanking Trump.
Now I want to connect this to something else because immigration is not just about, it's not just about borders in the most strict sense.
It's about culture too, right?
Because every country exists to defend its culture.
In America, our culture is really the most unique in the world because we said to the world, come here and be part of this.
Be part of freedom and individual rights and pursue your happiness and we'll get the government off your back.
This experiment had never been done in human history before and we're only in our 249th year of it.
Now, what came with that was people were going to come here and they would have be this skin color and they would be this religion and they would have this ethnicity and they would eat these foods and listen to this music.
But of course, you fell, you all became part of the melting pot because the promise of freedom was the thing.
That is the most important thing to our culture.
But we have let in all sorts of people who don't care about that promise of freedom.
I don't know, maybe Zamdami and Dorhan Balomi and Baloney and Omar and the rest of them, right?
And we have many of them in Congress, whether it's Rashida Talib or Ilhan Omar, et cetera, that don't like this country very much.
And they're here to turn this place into the places from whence they fled.
But I want to show you this video because this is super interesting.
So this is musician Billie Eilish going To her, she's Irish, going to Ireland.
It's unclear to me if she had ever been to Ireland before.
She never lived in Ireland.
But here she is in Ireland over the last couple days, talking about how it's good to be, in essence, home with people who look like her, which I thought would be racist.
Well, I'll let you decide.
unidentified
As you guys know, I'm Irish, so it's good to be.
billie eilish
I'm not from here, Abdita, but it's really cool to come somewhere and like everybody looks exactly like you.
Excuse me.
unidentified
Excuse me.
It's so amazing.
billie eilish
It just makes me feel so obscene.
unidentified
And yeah, I don't know.
billie eilish
Also, like, a thousand of my relatives are in the crowd right now, I'm pretty sure.
dave rubin
Okay, now, I know she's being a little tongue-in-cheek there, but there is something to be said.
It's okay if Ireland is for Irish people, and Irish people tend to be a little bit tasty.
Connor, would you like to come around this side of the camera for a moment?
No, no.
Okay, even in the summer, he refuses to do it.
Irish people generally are white.
Now, does that mean that no one other than white people should live in Ireland?
Well, largely, I would say that's up for the Irish to decide who's in their country.
But you get the point.
She's kind of joking about something, but there is, what she's basically saying is, I'm home around Irish people.
You guys have a certain set of traditions and holidays and things of that nature.
Now, she's associating it all with skin color, but we know that that's not, that's like, that's like this thin veneer level.
It's about something much richer than that.
And the Irish have every right to defend their culture, just like the British have a right and the Americans have a right and the Thais have a right and the Israelis and Mexicans and everyone else has a right to defend their culture.
Again, the skin color versus common tradition thing, we'd have to unpack that in a much wider way.
But you get the broader point.
If someone else says that, like she's saying it and getting applauded for it in Ireland, but from an American perspective, if you say, I'm here to defend American values, now it's a little more difficult to define what American values are because American values absolutely are not a skin color.
They absolutely are not a religion either.
But again, what are they?
They're the most aspirational thing because they are forged in freedom.
And that's much more of an amorphous thing rather than looking at somebody and being like, you look like me.
Let's build a country.
Anyway, let's put a pin in that for now and continue on with the lunacy of the Democrats.
This again from Eric Daughtry, breaking, rejected again.
Look at this poor sucker.
Senator Chris Van Holland, you remember him from Maryland, big fan of Albrego Garcia, and other Democrats tried to storm into an ICE facility in Baltimore, but were turned down.
So they're now doing a sit-in.
The Democrats' all-time low just keeps getting lower.
So that is the guy who had the margarita with Albrego Garcia, went to El Salvador, blah, blah, blah.
And then what are the Democrats very good at?
They're good at two things.
They're good at talking for a long time without urinating and sitting.
I think we have an image of Sad Van Holland.
Did we just show it?
Do you want to show it again?
Yeah, there's Sad Van Holland going, what have I done with my life?
You know what he's really thinking about?
He's thinking about a Brego Garcia naked.
That's what he's probably really thinking about.
All right, we're going to check the subscriber numbers.
Come on, people.
I want to drink some of the juice.

It's up to you, the viewing public.
Let's jump back to some of the other, well, we'll connect this to the immigration thing, but just some of the other sane policies we're doing here.
We showed you a portion of this the other day.
You know, I was in DC last week for that AI conference that Donald Trump and J.D. Vance were at and a bunch of industry leaders head of NVIDIA and all sorts of tech companies.
Here is, it was sponsored by the All-In podcast.
Here's Jason Kalkanis asking VP J.D. Vance about amnesty and will we just allow a certain set of people who've been here illegally, but maybe aren't murdering and raping, will we let them stay?
jason calacanis
The objection, perhaps, that some of us have is the style in which you're doing it.
A little aggressive, what happened in L.A. And you seem to, maybe internally in the administration, found a middle ground, maybe?
Listen to the other side and maybe our opinions on it.
jd vance
Well, first, the Trump administration obviously is a big group of people with a lot of different opinions.
And we all have to talk about this stuff and try to come up with the right decision.
But the Trump, the administration, the decision maker is, of course, one man.
And while he listens to everybody, he's also going to make the decisions that he thinks are best for the country.
And then we go and execute that after, of course, having a big conversation around the inner circle.
You know, what the president has said is, number one, we're not going to do amnesty in this country.
We're actually not going to tell people who have come into the country illegally that they're allowed to break our laws and be rewarded for it.
We're just not going to do that.
But there are a whole host of other ways when we talk to agricultural industries and others where they say, well, we really need labor.
Well, there are a whole host of ways in which you can try to solve those problems.
My favorite solution for those problems is automation, right?
I actually think there's a lot Of evidence that the American agricultural economy is a little behind the eight Paul when it comes to using technology.
There are ways where we're talking about facilitating the use of automation.
dave rubin
I have to say, when JD was speaking there and we were sitting in the audience, I turned to Phoenix and I said, There's something really, really honest about him.
Listen to the way he answered that question.
So he's basically, he basically, Cal Canis, who's kind of a Democrat still, his basic thing is like, he's sort of like a guilty liberal and I like him, but he's, you know, you get it.
Like, oh, you were doing something about immigration.
We don't like the way you're doing it.
It's always that sort of, it's wrapped always in this sort of guilty thing.
And listen to the way JD's first line was.
He basically says, listen, a lot of people think a lot of things in this administration.
We debate all that stuff, but Trump's the decider.
That's true.
That is so obviously true.
At the end of the day, Donald Trump makes the decisions and you may not like the decisions or you do like the decisions.
And then he gives it off to the people and they're going about the policy that Donald Trump set forth.
And just think about what stark contrast that is to the previous four years.
That's one part.
But then he actually answered the question quite honestly, even beyond that.
So what are you going to do?
There are certain industries, and it is true, there are certain industries that have been, for better or worse, reliant on illegal labor, the people picking the tomatoes and everything else.
So then what did JD say?
He said, we're listening to them.
But what I think is there are ways that they will not need it anymore, meaning we are going to automate it.
We are going.
You know what?
Can we grab that broccoli thing?
We're going to play it for tomorrow, but we'll maybe play it at the end of the show that I showed you because there's just more and more robotics that are going out into the fields and picking fruit, et cetera, et cetera.
And then it will also be replacing your Amazon delivery guy, who's a perfectly nice guy, by the way.
But that will be done by drones.
You just can't stop progress in that sense.
So what he's saying is we're hearing the industries.
We're not trying to destroy the industries overnight, but we're on this technological.
The technological piece of this is going like this.
And at some point, it will match up with the needs of the American industries.
And then it will make everything way more efficient.
That is just reality.
So he didn't just lie.
He didn't lie.
Now, what do you do with those people who will then have been here illegally doing tough work, who've been here for years?
And it doesn't mean that they're awful people.
Well, that's the question.
But he also answered that.
We are not giving them amnesty.
Yesterday, JD was asked, you know, we covered this really horrific mob assault.
And it happened to be a bunch of black people attacking two white people in Cincinnati.
JD was asked about that.
This is a separate event that happened yesterday.
Take a look.
unidentified
There was a group of people who attacked a couple folks on the street in Cincinnati.
Senator Bernie Moreno and some others have spoken out about it, have been critical of it.
jd vance
Okay, okay, yes, yes.
So what I saw, and I haven't seen the full context, but what I saw is a mob of lawless thugs beating up on an innocent person, and it's disgusting.
And I don't ever see one of those people who engage in violence is prosecuted to the bullets in the law.
And they will be.
I don't know how the fight started, but the one part that I saw that was really gruesome is you had a grown man who sucker punched a middle-aged woman.
And where I come from, at least when you have a grown man who sucker punches a middle-aged woman, that person ought to go to jail for a very long time.
And frankly, he's lucky there weren't some better people around because they would have handled it themselves.
But they're not going to handle it.
The cops in Cincinnati, the law enforcement, you've got to prosecute people.
We've had way too much lawlessness on the streets of great American cities.
How many of you all have wanted to go to downtown Akron or downtown Canton or downtown Columbus for a meal, but you're worried because the local authorities in these big cities have allowed lawlessness to run wild?
dave rubin
Yeah, I mean, I don't think I have to analyze that that much.
We know it.
We know what's happening in Democrat-run cities.
By the way, he was the senator from Ohio.
Cincinnati's in Ohio.
He knows a little something about that.
He's completely right that in a different place and with better people, the guy who sucker punched that woman would be in jail.
Hopefully they are going to catch all of these people.
But again, it's just, I'm just showing you that for, it's just clear leadership.
And I think we have, I saw this video this morning.
We were going to hold it for tomorrow, but it perfectly fits the automation answer that JD gave on the previous clip we just showed you.
So, you know, we've shown you some videos of robots now going in and they're doing the work that migrants used to do.
And again, you can, doesn't mean the migrants are bad people or anything else.
And they came here for the opportunity and previous administrations let them in.
But here really, if you are a Democrat and what a democratic, well, you're not going to have, you're not going to have, nobody's going to pick your stuff and nobody's going to throw out your garbage and no one's going to make your bed when you're at a hotel and everything else.
Well, look at the robots.
unidentified
You can see, you can see it right there.
Picking properly, chopping properly, as David Carvey used to say, right?
dave rubin
Like, so robots will do that.
People used to do it.
And the robots will get smarter and powered by AI.
And they will find even more efficient ways to do it.
And eventually the robots will be making the robots and all of the stuff.
So, okay, how do we wrap up this show?
Hopefully by the end of the day, it's going to be tight.
You rat bastards.
You're making me work hard today.
How do we tie all of this together?
We can either do what Trump and JD are laying out, which is before America, before technology, be forward thinking in the best possible sense, not just progress for the sake of progression, but progress to expand human freedom and ingenuity and all of those things.
Or we can go back to the ways, we can go back to all of the ways that our ancestors had to live, thus causing them to flee to the greatest country in the world.
So here is communist, I would say, jihadi adjacent, probably mayor of New York City, Zorhan Manzani, on a podcast with the host just trying to say, could you globalize, could you just stop saying globalize the antifada?
Or what do you think of the phrase globalize the antifada?
The Intifada, of course, are the repeated, the repeated violent episodes that the Palestinians have done against the Israelis that killed thousands and thousands of innocent people, including Americans, blew up buses, rammed cars into people, burned people alive, shot people, all of those things.
Could we not endorse globalizing that?
Because that doesn't seem so great.
But of course, he can't even do that level of low-hanging fruit.
unidentified
Sure, but does that just make you uncomfortable?
dave rubin
Like the phrase globalize into Fada from the river to the sea?
unidentified
Does that make you uncomfortable?
Or do you think that's a good question?
dave rubin
Okay, those are different.
Those are super different.
unidentified
they're not really different genre.
I'm sorry, I'm asking Zoran.
Then they're not really different to me.
And to some people, they're not different.
zohran mamdani
You know, I know people for whom those things mean very different things.
And to me, ultimately, what I hear in so many is a desperate desire for equality and equal rights in standing up for Palestinian human rights.
dave rubin
He is such an obvious fucking fraud.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
You're just a retard if you can't see it.
If you vote for him, you deserve everything you get.
I mean that New York City.
And then don't come crying to us here in Florida.
Globalize the Intifada means kill people who do not agree with you politically.
Mostly Jews, but in an American context, when they start blowing shit up with suicide vests and everything else, they're going to kill a bunch of other people too.
That's number one.
The river to the sea thing, they don't even know what river it is or what sea it is, but that's the river to the sea where Israel is.
And it has nothing to do with equality.
You think this guy wants equality for Jews.
Also, there never was a Palestinian state.
I don't feel like doing that whole thing.
So we can either be on the joyride of these smiling people who just say nothing as they destroy the world, or we can be with a serious guy who has had about enough of the jihadis.
unidentified
Yeah, God, they pulled out of Gaza.
donald j trump
They pulled out of terms of negotiating.
It was too bad.
Hamas didn't really want to make a deal.
I think they want to die.
It got to be to a point where you're going to have to finish the job.
They really, they asked the thing.
Don't forget, we got a lot of hostages out.
They know what happens to the final hostages.
And they know what happens after you get the final hostages.
And basically, because of that, they really didn't want to make it the election on that.
So they pulled out and they're going to have to fight and they're going to have to clean it up.
You're going to have to get rid of it.
dave rubin
And I mean, it's so interesting because there's Trump going more hardcore than Netanyahu there.
And he's, again, he's saying something very true.
There are 20 living hostages still there.
They have bodies of a whole bunch more, but they know that there's 20 living hostages somehow underneath Gaza right now.
Think about it.
They had a 12-day war with Iran.
They demolished a country 50 times their size and brought them to their knees with a little help from the United States in 12 days.
They've been in this protracted war because they care about life.
They are trying to save their citizens, as I would hope the United States would try to do if a bunch of Americans were kidnapped and murdered and raped and everything else from San Diego and taken over to the border in Tijuana and held underground over there.
We would be bombing the flying fuck out of them, right?
And as well we should.
And we wouldn't care a lick about any Mexican or anything else.
And everyone who is telling these armchair quarterbacks who are telling Israel how to do their war, they would not care if it was your sister or your mother or anything else.
Obviously, that's a country exists to defend its citizens.
But it's interesting what Trump said, because he said something very true.
Hamas right now, the only leverage they have is the 20 hostages.
They know how badly Israel wants to bring back living hostages.
So they know if they give up the hostages, they're done for.
But Trump basically said they got to go in and finish the job, talking about the Israelis.
And it's up to the Israelis to decide how long do you want to be in a protracted war to save your people versus just going in and ending this freaking thing.
That's for them to decide.
But the reason I'm ending with that clip is it shows Trump knows the difference between right and wrong.
He knows what is good.
We are leading in the world again.
And everyone in the world, whether it's Kier Starmer, who's largely destroyed his country or B.B. Netanyahu, who is doing a miracle job with his country, Trump's still trying to lead everybody.
So I would get on board that.
That's what I would do.
All right, where are we?
Where are we?
Am I drinking this thing right now?
I'm going to refresh.
2,999,650.
We are off by 350 today.
Now, again, the goal is to get it by the end of Thursday.
We will get it by the end of today.
But sorry, guys, I'm going to have to hold on to this.
We're going to have to put it back in the fridge.
We keep it at a nice 34 degrees.
It's chilled, just above freezing temperature.
All right, all right.
We'll all share it for lunch.
How about that?
Tomorrow it is.
Thanks for watching Postgame Show 30 Seconds, RubenReport.local stock.

We take Donald Trump seriously when he talks about the 2028 election.
