I feel like I'm about to club a baby seat. | |
| I'm the luckiest guy in the world. | ||
| Introduced Melania to Trump. | ||
| And do we believe the crack out of it? | ||
| Keep going, Democrats. | ||
| Just kick the crap out of that building. | ||

What? | |
| What? | ||
| Is it some sort of rite of passage? | ||
| a lot of stuff. | ||
| New season, new intro, old day. | ||
| Hello, I'm Dave Rubin. | ||
| This is the Rubin Report, and this is the official debut of season 14 of the Rubin Report. | ||
| It is September 3rd, 2025. | ||
| I hope you guys tuned in to our catch-up show yesterday. | ||
| Big thanks to Jillian Michaels for bringing me back on the grid. | ||
| It's always, it's weird. | ||
| I cannot explain it properly with all of the words that I know as a guy that talks for a living. | ||
| I know all the words, and it is extremely difficult to explain the sort of emotional, philosophical, existential situation as I walk back into the room and just get back into the circus. | ||
| That's what it feels like, just getting back into the circus. | ||
| But for those of you that did watch or even, if you didn't watch yesterday, I got caught up on everything that happened in August. | ||
| And I said to Jillian right up top, I don't get the sense that I've missed too much. | ||
| And I think I largely was right about that. | ||
| Yeah, the Trump-Putin thing that kind of happened and subsequently doesn't seem like a lot's happening. | ||
| And yeah, there was some racism stuff and a shooting. | ||
| But it was just that the game continued to be played. | ||
| So I hope, while I hope that you watch some of the stuff that we put up throughout the month, because we did pre-tape a lot of stuff and put up some good stuff. | ||
| And largely that was to just stay in the algorithm. | ||
| Because if you don't put up content, you get kicked out of the algorithm. | ||
| And then it takes us months for you guys to then see our videos again. | ||
| That's just the nature of the YouTube game. | ||
| I'm just happy to be back. | ||
| And it's good to see everybody here. | ||
| And we got a thick show for you. | ||
| The world continues to spin. | ||
| And more than anything else, as I said yesterday, I'm just appreciative of you guys for tuning in every day, giving me the opportunity to do what I love 11 months of the year and then also escape and do something that I love for one month of the year. | ||
| But I'm back. | ||
| I am beyond refreshed and focused. | ||
| We have a lot of things that we're going to be announcing over the next couple of weeks, including an Australia tour, which we'll have a little bit more about tomorrow. | ||
| Copal will be back on sale next week. | ||
| Couple other announcements come in, some big interviews, all of that stuff. | ||
| But let's just dive right into the show today. | ||
| And, you know, actually, this is a perfect way to start because one of the things that I thought was most interesting yesterday that Jillian and I got in, that Jillian and I got into was how, you know, and you guys know this because you've watched this show for a while and you see the changing of the guard, but you know, the sort of collapse of mainstream media that I'm always focused on, the ascendancy of new media, and then sort of how will they ultimately, how will it all sift out, right? | ||
| Like, how will it end so that these things, they're both going to exist one way or another, whether you like one or hate one or whatever. | ||
| They're both going to exist. | ||
| And interestingly, to that point, Ben Shapiro, who's been one of the thought leaders in the online space on the right for over a decade at this point, like me and him are OG old-time veterans in this game already. | ||
| I think Ben even maybe even started before me. | ||
| He went on CNN on this Abby Phillips show. | ||
| And we played a couple clips of Abby Phillips because she was going after Jillian herself. | ||
| That was one of the things that went viral in August. | ||
| And you know my feelings about Abby Phillips. | ||
| I'm deeply unimpressed with this person. | ||
| There doesn't seem to be a lot behind the eyes. | ||
| She's got the thing in the ear. | ||
| It's just a chair with her name on it at, I guess, eight o'clock. | ||
| They put her on. | ||
| They'll fire her in a year from now and then she'll call them racists. | ||
| Like we know how this script goes. | ||
| But anyway, Ben went on. | ||
| So this is the online media going to the place that the mainstream media still owns. | ||
| And he just, one of the interesting things is the disconnect between the level of, what would be the best way to say this? | ||
| The level of stupidity and pandering that happens on these shows versus things that happen online that are just more real and hefty. | ||
| And Ben is an extremely good purveyor of what is hefty intellectually. | ||
| So here we got a couple clips for you. | ||
| Here is Ben calling out the left's double standards when it comes to Trump, particularly on foreign policy. | ||
| Predictable. | ||
| I mean, I think this is the problem. | ||
| Everybody knew that this was what Putin was going to do. | ||
| They said so from the get-go. | ||
| The only people saying that Trump was a genius and that this was going to be all totally different were folks like you two and Donald Trump. | ||
| I mean, to be fair, I'm not sure that even President Trump said things were going to be totally different. | ||
| He said that he was giving the opportunity for things to be totally different. | ||
| But let's be real about this. | ||
| Six months ago, everybody would have celebrated on the left and in the center and on my part of the right, if President Trump had said we're going to maintain arms shipments to Ukraine and we might consider further sanctions on Russia. | ||
| And actually, we're not going to force Ukraine into a bad settlement. | ||
| Okay, so Trump hasn't done any of the things that everybody thought he was going to do in January of 2025. | ||
| And now we're ripping him for what, not being hawkish enough. | ||
| It's kind of funny how the goalposts move every time Trump moves. | ||
| Trump is heterodox, but he is responsive to reality. | ||
| Okay, so I think that right there is a perfect example of just a host who doesn't really know what she's saying, who would take a completely different position if it was somebody else that was in office right now versus Ben just laying out what is true. | ||
| He also said something interesting, that it's that Trump said it was the opportunity for things to be different, right? | ||
| And we know that's true. | ||
| Like I'm just someone coming back on the grid, so I haven't seen all of the videos of Trump and Putin together. | ||
| But knowing Trump and how he negotiates and how he sits down with these people, he sits down with them, he presents some options, right? | ||
| And then that's the negotiation. | ||
| That's what Trump is good at. | ||
| That's what the art of the deal is. | ||
| It was the opportunity for things to be different. | ||
| Now, it may turn out that Putin is not going to take that opportunity and he's going to, you know, he's going to kind of grind down and keep going with the war and try to hold on to more land from Ukraine and all of those things. | ||
| That is definitely possible. | ||
| But it was the opportunity. | ||
| So I think it was good that Ben said that. | ||
| And then, of course, really what he's talking about there is the double standards, because what are you saying, Abby Philip? | ||
| You want Trump to be more hawkish and push us further into war? | ||
| Is that what you want? | ||
| So, okay, that was one. | ||
| Ben just kind of explaining basic reality and double standards and hypocrisy to them. | ||
| And then this was quite a good one. | ||
| They got into Social Security and government spending. | ||
| And here is Ben explaining a bit about why our country is going bankrupt. | ||
| And could we kind of focus on the things that might clean that up? | ||
| But if we really believe that we can't raise the retirement age and we're never going to change that, we will go bankrupt. | ||
| And all the talk about cutting at the margins, you know, whatever Doge is doing, that's not going to touch the real driver of the systemic debt in the United States. | ||
| Women are living to 85 if you make it to 65. | ||
| Men are living to 83 if you make to 65. | ||
| That's 20 years on the public dime. | ||
| Hold on. | ||
| When you're talking about the government paying, you're talking about Social Security, which is people's money. | ||
| Well, it is not the money you paid in. | ||
| Yeah, it's a system that they pay into. | ||
| Yes, but believe me, I pay a lot. | ||
| I don't pay a lot of Social Security. | ||
| I don't know about it. | ||
| I promise you the amount that people are taking out is not the amount that is going in, which is why we are going bankrupt. | ||
| Okay, but it's not the government just handing out a blank check. | ||
| No, it's the government borrowing money to pay. | ||
| Well, you pay in X dollars and then you get multiple times X dollars when you retire. | ||
| That is how the system works. | ||
| It is not a lockbox. | ||
| This is what Al Gore was arguing about in 2000. | ||
| God, in some way, it's like, how does it all just keep getting dumber? | ||
| You know, I go away. | ||
| I thought maybe there was a chance it would get a little brighter, but no, it didn't happen. | ||
| But there's Ben trying to explain basic realities. | ||
| What you, all of us right now, what we all pay in, if you're working, you have a paycheck. | ||
| Everybody in this room has one, right? | ||
| And you're paying into Social Security. | ||
| Ben's point, it's not a blank check. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Thank you, Abby. | ||
| Ben's point is what you're getting back from Social Security is way more than you've paid in. | ||
| So over time, that is going to keep adding up, adding up, adding to the deficit. | ||
| And that really inherently is the problem. | ||
| And that, and also, as he points out, people are living way longer. | ||
| So if you make it to 65, the people who make it to 65, don't croak at 59. | ||
| They make it to 65. | ||
| Now they're living much longer. | ||
| And by the way, that's going to continue with advances in science. | ||
| That's going to continue with AI and new ways that people are looking at their health. | ||
| And I don't know, a guy by the name of Bobby Kennedy who's getting people to eat better and think about their health and foods and environment in a different way, right? | ||
| So that is going to continue. | ||
| We're going to keep putting more and more people paying into a system that they're not paying enough as they take money out of, and they're going to be on the dole longer. | ||
| So he calmly explains that. | ||
| Then they're all like, but we pay in. | ||
| Like, okay, thank you. | ||
| That is first grade analysis. | ||
| We pay in. | ||
| It's not a blank check. | ||
| Okay, okay. | ||
| Here is Ben also correcting a former colleague of mine, progressive Anna Kasparian, who is, I'll try to be nice. | ||
| She's a person on a show here. | ||
| And she has a bit of Israel derangement syndrome. | ||
| Everything always comes back to Israel. | ||
| So here they go into spending and Ben tries to explain that military spending is not even close to what we are doing with Social Security, as he had previously laid out. | ||
|

|
Pictures around. | |
| It was about patriotism. | ||
| It was about trying to get people excited about what could happen in this country. | ||
| This president is trying to raise money by putting tariffs on our adversaries and allies alike in ways that don't make any sense. | ||
| There is nothing. | ||
| Nothing, nothing. | ||
| He spent most of his administration ripping on what he called the malefactors of great wealth. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're still living off of a lot of the public works. | |
| I wish we were building highways. | ||
| Why are you against what Trump is doing? | ||
| Because he's doing a much lesser version of what FDR does. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It depends on what jobs are. | |
| I'm just saying if you're backbreaking later, I guess you should be able to do that. | ||
| I mean, by the way, I just totally reject what you just said about how we're going bankrupt due to Social Security. | ||
| Really? | ||
| You don't think like the trillions of dollars we've spent on wars in the Middle East might have something to do with that? | ||
| That's not even a problem. | ||
| Our national debt, our national debt shot up significantly after 9-11, after we started invading countries in the Middle East. | ||
| You should look at a chart. | ||
| Now we're at 30. | ||
| We're spending hundreds of billions of dollars on Israel, on Ukraine. | ||
| I mean, honestly, these foreign conflicts have a lot more to do with our national debt as opposed to us paying us to ours are. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You think Israel is a bigger portion of our budget than Social Security? | |
| I think we spend way too much money on military aid for foreign countries. | ||
| You think Israel is more do you think that social security is more of an issue compared to how much money we just shell out for conflicts abroad? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Both in violence and defense. | |
| All right. | ||
| I'm just back. | ||
| I'm going to try. | ||
| I'm trying to be nice, right? | ||
| Like, I was away. | ||
| I was on a beach for a lot of it, not really thinking about this stuff. | ||
| So I'm going to try to be nice. | ||
| So first off, yeah, Ben is calmly trying to explain things. | ||
| And it really gets to what I started the show with, with there's this disconnect between what happens online and what happens on these TV shows. | ||
| The TV shows have, they've dumbed down people for so long that when people come on, usually from the online world and say something true, the machine itself, the show, doesn't know how to function. | ||
| So that's why Scott at the end, like you could see he's like that last line, he basically is kind of like looking at her like you're an idiot. | ||
| You just say things. | ||
| She says, okay, you think Social Security is not as big as the foreign spending? | ||
| Yeah, it's not even close. | ||
| Ben was pointing that out a moment before that every single day, the amount that people are taking out of Social Security into retirement is way more than they've put in, and that is going to get worse. | ||
| Also, you can absolutely, this isn't the argument she's making because she's not that bright, but you could make a cogent argument about cutting back all foreign aid, all foreign spending, military aid, and all of those things. | ||
| You could do that. | ||
| What she, of course, isn't saying is that the money that we quote unquote give Israel, they have to spend in the United States on arms. | ||
| We don't just and the money. | ||
| They have to, they take money that they then have to buy things from the U.S. So it's a subsidy to our own industries here. | ||
| Now, that may not be the best idea, and they should probably not want to be silver lying on America. | ||
| Fine. | ||
| But make a cogent argument about it. | ||
| So, all right. | ||
| I think that was a nice way to start the show because the disconnect is the thing. | ||
| Well, I guess it's the thing that brought people like you to a show like this, right? | ||
| You watch those shows. | ||
| You go, my God, these people are all retards. | ||
| There's got to be a better way. | ||
| And then I was like, I guess maybe I could do it. | ||
| And that's what we're doing here. | ||
| Let's talk about Outskill for a moment. | ||
| And then we will get into one of my other favorite topics, which is the crumbling of the blue cities. | ||
| I tried to save them. | ||
| I couldn't. | ||

|
All right. | |
| So the first segment today, obviously, about the disconnect between mainstream media and online media and how you get your news. | ||
| And thus, when these things collide, it's like, does anyone feel smarter at the end of that segment? | ||
| I'm not so sure. | ||
| The other thing that I like is the disconnect. | ||
| Well, I like it. | ||
| I like talking about it. | ||
| I wish it didn't exist, but it is something that exists and it's worth illustrating over and over again is the disconnect between red and blue states. | ||
| I am someone who very publicly left the communist country of California to come to the free state of Florida. | ||
| And it was obviously largely because of a lizard man, Gavin Newsom, who I did not think about once for 31 days. | ||
| How amazing is that? | ||
| That's worth the whole freaking price of admission right there. | ||
| Anyway, as California has continued to crumble, and everyone knows the homelessness and the drugs and all of the stuff and the like the burning down of the cities and everything, Gavin Newsom, who's still still at this point, this is a man who should be living in a cave somewhere, embarrassed to be seen. | ||
| But now he's trying because he still wants to be president. | ||
| And the Democrats, because there is no leader right there, Jillian showed me the clip yesterday of Kamala saying she's out. | ||
| I mean, they just have no leader, inmates running the asylum, crazy people everywhere, cats and dogs, all of the stuff. | ||
| Gavin is now trying to be tough guy when it comes to law enforcement in California because he realizes if he's ever going to be able to be president, God forbid, that his track record, that Cali will have to be cleaned up. | ||
| So here he is, and look at the imagery here, talking about how he's advancing law enforcement. | ||
| Now, this is purely because it's been exposed. | ||
| We all showed all of the videos of what's gone on there. | ||
| It's perfect imagery. | ||
| He looks like DeSantis with the officers behind him. | ||
| And this is purely because Trump has made an issue out of it. | ||
| Here's Newsom pretending to be a tough guy who's for law enforcement. | ||
| Effort that will now take shape on Border Division down in San Diego. | ||
| We're going to advance this effort down in LA to other parts of the Central Valley, not just limited to Bakersfield in partnership with Mayor Goh there in San Bernardino. | ||
| And we're going to expand this operation in a collaborative that continues to include the cities and counties, our partners in the sheriff's office and local law enforcement agencies. | ||
| So look, this guy needs to be exposed. | ||
| At every turn, he needs to be exposed because he probably is the most dangerous politician in the country because he has endless ambition, a completely out-of-control ego, and I would say no heart or soul. | ||
| That's what I would say. | ||
| But you can see, isn't it interesting? | ||
| Isn't it interesting, Gavin? | ||
| And I'm still trying to, is he still doing the podcast? | ||
| They never responded to us after we had a little back and forth. | ||
| I don't know if the podcast, if he's still doing it, but he's still welcome on this show. | ||
| And I'd be happy to go on his show, both of them live, no edits. | ||
| But Gav, Gav, if you're suddenly so interested in what's going on with the border and you're suddenly so interested in cleaning up Bakersfield and a couple of these other cities, why didn't you do that for this last decade when you were mayor of San Francisco or during your horrible reign of terror as governor of California? | ||
| The only reason you're doing it now is because you're being exposed and because Trump is going in as the president and doing the things that you as the governor refused to do. | ||
| Here is Trump. | ||
| I guess one of the big things that I missed over the time away was that Trump started sending in some troops into DC and to some other places. | ||
| This was obviously happening a little bit as it pertained to immigration, but well, more than a little bit, with ICE going into some of these cities, that was happening July and June. | ||
| But then they started doing it. | ||
| This was the thing that changed in August as it pertained to crime. | ||
| Here is Trump making a reporter look a little foolish as he asks him about sending troops into Chicago. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Today, California ruled that your deployment of National Guard troops to Los Angeles was illegal. | |
| Do you have any response? | ||
| Well, it was a radical left judge. | ||
| But very importantly, what did you not tell me in that question or statement that you meant pretty much of a statement? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I was asking for the response. | |
| No, no, you didn't say what the judge said, though. | ||
| The judge said, but you can leave the 300 people that you already have in place. | ||
| They can continue to be in place. | ||
| That's all we need. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mind the lawn Chicago, though. | |
| Well, we're going in. | ||
| I didn't say when. | ||
| We're going in. | ||
| When you lose, look, I have an obligation. | ||
| This isn't a political thing. | ||
| I have an obligation. | ||
| We lose when 20 people are killed over the last two and a half weeks and 75 are shot with bullets. | ||
| So let me tell you a little story about a place called DC, District of Columbia, right here where we are. | ||
| It's now a safe zone. | ||
| We have no crime. | ||
| It's in such great shape. | ||
| You can go and actually walk with your children, your wife, your husband. | ||
| You can walk right down the middle of the street. | ||
| You're not going to be shot, Peter. | ||
| You're safe. | ||
| Everyone likes you anyway. | ||
| They probably wouldn't do it. | ||
| I really love him. | ||
| I actually missed him. | ||
| I don't know that anyone's ever said that. | ||
| We're so inundated with Trump stuff all the time. | ||
| But right. | ||
| Like, you could walk down the street with your family and you're not going to get shot. | ||
| Like, by the way, you can do that in Florida and you're not going to get shot either. | ||
| But the point is, he's right. | ||
| He says, I have a responsibility. | ||
| He's the chief executive of the state. | ||
| Is it compassionate or kind or progressive or anything else to just do nothing when 20 people are shot and murdered over a weekend in Chicago? | ||
| And we jokingly have done it for years, right, on this show. | ||
| How many people were shot in Chicago? | ||
| It's not that it's funny. | ||
| It's that it's so profoundly absurd that the progressives don't care. | ||
| And of course, we know why they don't care. | ||
| We know why the Democrats don't care because it's black people shooting black people. | ||
| And that just simply does not work in their intersectional calculator. | ||
| But what did Trump do apparently during August? | ||
| Learned a little bit about it yesterday, was he said, okay, we have this horrific crime situation in D.C. That's absolutely true. | ||
| And we are going to clean it up. | ||
| And now he's saying it's clean. | ||
| So we can do it. | ||
| What's the DeSantis line I love? | ||
| Decline is a choice. | ||
| It is a choice. | ||
| Here's a bit more from Trump on what's going on in Chicago. | ||
| Six people were killed and 24 people were shot in Chicago last weekend. | ||
| And J.B. Pritzker, the weak and pathetic governor of Illinois, just said that he doesn't need help in preventing crime. | ||
| He is crazy. | ||
| He better straighten it out fast or we're coming. | ||
| MAGA, President Donald J. Trump. | ||
| So look, do I, I think you guys know my feelings on this. | ||
| Do I love the idea of the federal government going into states and cities and having to do these big cleanup jobs? | ||
| Of course not. | ||
| We want the federal government to focus on the things it's supposed to focus on, like the border, right? | ||
| Like making sure that we have fair trade policies and the other great things that Trump is doing. | ||
| I don't know, bring around world peace, that kind of thing. | ||
| That would be good. | ||
| However, if the states and the cities absolutely refuse to do the basics, the basics is, I don't know, can I walk out on the street in Chicago, once one of the great cities of the United States of America, and not get shot and or raped? | ||
| Pretty low bar, but they seem to not do it there. | ||
| And it's not just that they don't do anything about it. | ||
| Then they actually obfuscate that there's a problem at all. | ||
| This is an interesting one. | ||
| This is a woman who was hospitalized by a repeat offender in Chicago. | ||
| Talking about it to the news. | ||
| I think we're going to see various headshots of this guy, and you'll be able to count actually how many times he was arrested. | ||
|
unidentified
|
13 mugshots of Livingston going back to 2012. | |
| A large number of those arrests for aggravated assault and battery of both women and police officers. | ||
| Something Miles found out after the fact. | ||
| Like, what is enough? | ||
| You know, what does someone have to do where he's going to be, they're going to be held accountable? | ||
| According to online records, Livingston's history of random acts of violence against women goes back eight years. | ||
| In 2017, he was accused of randomly attacking two women months apart. | ||
| Both cases were dropped. | ||
| In 2022, Livingston was sentenced to five years in prison after prosecutors said he punched and attempted to rob four women within 20 minutes in the loop. | ||
| And yet, just 14 months later, in 2023, while on parole, Livingston was arrested for hitting a woman in the face on North Michigan Avenue. | ||
| And in 2024, he was sentenced to 100 days in prison after punching a 15-year-old girl, also a North Michigan. | ||
| You know that guy's going to be the mayor of Chicago within like five years. | ||
| Livingston, I'll kick the shit out of a bitch. | ||
| Can we put the bug shots up again for a second? | ||
| Because it is not easy. | ||
| You know, when people take a mug shot, you're usually just going to get the standard, you know, one of those. | ||
| But this guy had a different look in each mug shot. | ||
| He had different hair in each mug shot and everything else. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So this, then he's got, I like that one. | |
| That one's the middle one is kind of straight up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Then, I did it. | |
| That was the one. | ||
| You see that one? | ||
| I shouldn't have hit that little girl. | ||
| That was the final. | ||
| Then this one, he was like, yeah, I should have hit her. | ||
|
unidentified

And then this one was like, damn, I'll hit her again. | |
| You got to admire her. | ||
| But you see the point, guys. | ||
| You see the point. | ||
| Like this guy should be in jail probably for life. | ||
| 13 mug shots kick the crap out of that woman, fractures in her face. | ||
| She's still got, and nobody, nobody knows her name. | ||
| J.B. Pritzker, how about you get out there and talk about her? | ||
| They never talk about the victims. | ||
| They just love the rapists and the murderers and the psychopaths and the wackadoodles. | ||
| This is a gem. | ||
| Here's J.B. Pritzker talking to a reporter about the 54 people who were shot in Chicago this past weekend. | ||
| And you're not going to believe who he blames. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You're going to hear people, especially this past weekend. | |
| 54 shot, seven dead. | ||
| They're going to say the city's not safe. | ||
| Would you ask your friends to ride the L after midnight or after, you know, nine o'clock at night even to come down to the city from O'Hare? | ||
| Look, big cities have crime. | ||
| There's no doubt about it. | ||
| But let's just pay attention to what President Trump is doing targeting Chicago. | ||
| He's overlooking red states that have much higher crime rates. | ||
| Unbelievable. | ||
| Unbelievable. | ||
| I'll give credit where credit's due. | ||
| Pritzker, you're out there walking and you should be walking. | ||
| That's good. | ||
| You got to get your steps in. | ||
| I'd recommend about 12,000 a day. | ||
| That'll get you going. | ||
| That's one thing. | ||
| Okay, that's nice. | ||
| But immediately, 54 people were shot in your city this weekend. | ||
| Cities have crime. | ||
| Like, what an absolute, pathetic, pass-the-buck, I'm nothing person you could possibly be, J.B. Pritzker. | ||
| You are nothing. | ||
| Trump's ignoring. | ||
| Show me. | ||
| Show me. | ||
| Please, someone correct me if I'm wrong. | ||
| Show me the red, big city that is being ravaged and rampaged with the crime numbers that New York, Chicago, LA, San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, et cetera, et cetera, have. | ||
| I don't know what it is. | ||
| And we know that the numbers were being seen on those cities are lower because they're not even reported properly anymore. | ||
| They ignore crimes or someone will come in and say, I got beaten. | ||
| And they'll say, oh, it was just petty larceny, something like that. | ||
| So it's just absolutely crazy. | ||
| Did we get the numbers on Miami? | ||
| He's talking about the big cities and the amount of people that were shot this weekend. | ||
| We can't even find the numbers, which means it's obviously very low. | ||
| I'm going to guess maybe four people were shot over the Labor Day weekend in Miami. | ||
| We'll keep trying to find it. | ||
| But again, it is a choice. | ||
| You cannot stop crime altogether. | ||
| You cannot stop shooting altogether. | ||
| You cannot stop bad people from doing bad things. | ||
| But you people have emboldened all of the bad guys while you point at the orange man who's trying to fix the freaking thing that you broke. | ||
| Here's a bit more of J.B. Pritzker saying that Trump is trying to steal the election. | ||
| We're going to do that again, too. | ||
| This is a part of his plan to do something really nefarious, which is to interfere with elections in 2026. | ||
| He wants to have troops on the ground to stop people from voting, to intimidate people from going to the voting booth. | ||
| So take note. | ||
| That is what this is all about. | ||
| We have reason to believe that Stephen Miller chose the month of September to come to Chicago because of celebrations around Mexican Independence Day that happen here every year. | ||
| It breaks my heart to report that we have been told ICE will try and disrupt community picnics and peaceful parades. | ||
| Let's be clear. | ||
| The terror and cruelty is the point. | ||
| Not the safety of anyone living here. | ||
| Look, Pritzker, first off, nobody's buying the election stuff anymore. | ||
| Yes, Trump is doing this to steal an election. | ||
| Like, I'm not even wasting a breath on that. | ||
| As for things around Mexican Independence Day, well, people that are legally here from Mexico, and by the way, I spent some time in Mexico and I've been to Mexico a lot and we're doing the tequila. | ||
| And I just want to say for a moment, aside of anything else, I love Mexican people and Mexican culture and food and music, like and the spiritual side of Mexican identity. | ||
| I really, really love Mexican culture. | ||
| Like I could see myself retiring in Mexico. | ||
| I love it. | ||
| I'm staying in America, but I just love not going anywhere. | ||
| Don't worry. | ||
| You're not going to Mexico. | ||
| However, Pritzker, if there are people celebrating in America Mexican Independence Day, as long as they're American, then it's not going to be a problem. | ||
| You are all just ridiculous. | ||
| But speaking of ridiculous, if Pritzker, if you think Pritzker is ridiculous, the guy who really is ridiculous as it pertains to the state of Illinois is the mayor of Chicago, Brandon Johnson. | ||
| We've played a lot of videos of this guy over the years. | ||
| He's a complete and utter racist. | ||
| He tells, I don't even know how he gets away with it, but I guess he can just kind of get away with anything these days. | ||
| He literally tells the public he's hiring and doing contracts with black-owned businesses, which is against the law. | ||
| He has destroyed the city. | ||
| He never takes blame for anything. | ||
| Here he is saying that the violence has nothing to do with illegals. | ||
| He, of course, doesn't address who's actually shooting who. | ||
| And then he wants people to fight against Trump. | ||
| In closing, violence in Chicago is not because we have too many immigrants. | ||
| It's because we have too many guns. | ||
| So our message to Trump continues to be the same. | ||
| Stop posting truth socials. | ||
| Stop making statements. | ||
| Stop threatening to send troops or ICE. | ||
| Stop defunding our communities. | ||
| Just do your job and end the trafficking of guns into our city. | ||

Are you prepared to defend this land? | |
| Chicago was built by slaves. | ||
| Maybe I'll tell you, I think that guy's map is upside down. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Look, like the way they gin up the anger and hate towards Trump. | ||
| All Trump's trying to do is make sure that a family could go to the theater in Chicago and not get shot. | ||
| Of course, as always, Brandon Johnson never makes the distinction between legal and illegal. | ||
| And the idea that this is a gun issue, right? | ||
| A gun issue is absurd. | ||
| Chicago has some of, if not the strictest gun laws in the state. | ||
| Now, he's saying people are trafficking guns in. | ||
| Okay, that might be true. | ||
| Then figure it out, then figure it out. | ||
| But you know what? | ||
| When there are rules, when there are laws, people are always going to skirt them, right? | ||
| So why don't you, Brandon Johnson, like, why don't you, you are black. | ||
| You seem to make your identity around being black and want to help black people more than the average person of Chicago. | ||
| It would be nice if you were just the mayor of the people of Chicago. | ||
| But why don't you care that so many black people are being killed in Chicago? | ||
| You might want to think about that, Brandon Johnson. | ||
| And is that right what you're showing me right now? | ||
| Apparently, Brandon Johnson's approval rating, 6.6. | ||
| You didn't leave a digit out there? | ||
| 6.6% according to M3 strategies. | ||
| So that guy has a very short rope right now. | ||
| This is great. | ||
| So I missed this. | ||
| Apparently, this was about a week ago. | ||
| Brandon Johnson, Mayor of Chicago, went on Joe Scarborough show. | ||
| And you know Joe Scarborough on, I guess I can't call it MSNBC anymore or MSNBC 13 or the television. | ||
| Like it's a televised, now it's the televised mentalization of MS Now. | ||
| That doesn't roll off the tongue. | ||
| In any event, Joe Scarborough, who once in a blue moon clock broken twice a day, you know what, you know the saying, it's going to get something right every now and again. | ||
| Here he is, Joe Scarborough, expressing frustration about Brandon Johnson for not being okay with Trump trying to fix some things. | ||
| I'm curious, would you also like to get federal funding to help put 5,000 more cops on the street in Chicago? | ||
| Would that help drive down crime? | ||
| Well, look, policing by itself is not the full strategy. | ||
| No, I understand if you've talked about the other things you want. | ||
| And I said those are good and important programs. | ||
| But I'm asking also, would 5,000 more police officers on the street in Chicago be helpful to go along with all of those social programs that a lot of cities are engaging in and having success with? | ||
| If you get all of those other social programs that 800 million that New York City does, Los Angeles, other people do with great success, would an additional 5,000 cops on the streets in Chicago help complement those programs to make Chicago safer? | ||
| Look, we are working hard to make sure that our police department is fully supported. | ||
| I don't believe that just simply putting out an arbitrary number around police officers is the answer. | ||
| How about you just say, you know what, we do have a problem here. | ||
| Like, again, you should care. | ||
| You should care about all your citizens, but I suppose in your progressive stack of a mind, you should really care about all of the black people shot, but you don't. | ||
| So if Trump's willing to send 5,000 police officers so that Chicago could be cleaned up the way apparently Trump has just cleaned up D.C., we'll go to D.C. in the next couple of. | ||
| I'm sure I'll be there in the next month or two. | ||
| We'll see what's going on over there. | ||
| And D.C., where there were homeless people all over the place, where at night it often looks, you know, there's just kind of vagrants wandering around everything. | ||
| We'll see if it looks more cleaned up. | ||
| My guess is it will. | ||
| Brandon, like, don't you care about your people? | ||
| But you don't because you put an ideology above people. | ||
| And that probably means you are not a very good politician and definitely means you're not a great person. | ||
| Let's talk about policy genius for a minute and then we'll connect what we've sort of discussed here from an American lens into what's going on over in Europe. | ||
| Here's a stat that really stops people in their tracks. | ||
| Nearly half of American adults say they would suffer financial hardship within just six months if they lost their primary income earner. | ||

| All right, so so far we've covered some of the topics that always interest me, right? | ||
| The big one I would say is the online versus mainstream media and how when they come together, there's always this weird conflict because the gap is so huge. | ||
| That's one. | ||
| The other one, as we just illustrated, is the divide between red and blue. | ||
| And you can just see in blue cities, they seem to want more of the chaos and disaster and everything else. | ||
| And in this case, we happen to have a president who's red, Republican, try to fix it. | ||
| They don't like that very much. | ||
| Another thing that I'm always interested in is how the things that are happening here in America seem to be happening across the world, all right, all over the globe. | ||
| So this I thought was particularly interesting from Liff Finader, who's an ex-commentator in Europe. | ||
| Listen to this and look at that chart right there. | ||
| Rates of robbery in Western Europe, Western European countries over the past 250 years. | ||
| The figure illustrates that robbery was largely unknown in European cities throughout the second half of the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century. | ||
| But since the early 1960s, the number of police recorded robberies has exploded. | ||
| Maybe this can be in part attributed to more reporting and better recording, but a large proportion certainly reflects a real change that is unparalleled, paralleled in modern European society. | ||
| So, okay, so reporting might be a little bit different and all of those things. | ||
| He's acknowledging that, but you don't have to be a wizard to look at the hockey stick of a chart right there. | ||
| And basically, suddenly, since the 1960s, in Europe, you're getting all of this crime. | ||
| So what has happened in the 1960s, taking into account that reporting might be different, technology is different, all of those things. | ||
| Well, there's some serious problems. | ||
| Listen to this from the rabbit hole on Twitter. | ||
| Sex crime arrest rates for foreign nationals in England and Wales. | ||
| So in England and in Wales, the people who are doing the most raping, basically, and sexual molestation are from Sudan, Afghanistan, Entria, Iran, Iraq. | ||
| We can go down the list. | ||
| That seems like a problem, right? | ||
| Now, it doesn't matter, obviously, if the rapist is a native-born Brit or someone who just got over there from Afghanistan, but you might want to think about that a little bit. | ||
| Elon saw that and he retweeted it. | ||
| He wrote this, the rape of Britain. | ||
| Remember to drop a white feather for the cowards who failed to stop this. | ||
| Why, if you were a British politician over the last 20 years, would you have not said, boy, bringing in all of these people? | ||
| We have these Pakistani grooming gangs and they're raping all of these people and London. | ||
| I mean, trust me, every single time. | ||
| I've been going to London probably once a year for the last six or seven years, something like that. | ||
| Like London gets worse every single time. | ||
| You can really see how it's cordoned off really between ethnicities. | ||
| Like it's not good. | ||
| Why did nobody step up and do anything about it? | ||
| Well, here's another example, because it's not just the UK that this is happening in. | ||
| This is a commentator by the name of Nima Yamini talking about how European girls, that ultimately, when you have all these open door policies and we're nice and we're progressive and everyone can come here and all cultures are equal and nothing's good and nothing's bad, well, it's the young girls who are going to pay the price first. | ||
| You ever wonder why so many European girls are paying the price for these stupid woke immigration policies? | ||
| I have a home in Germany since 2020 where my wife is from. | ||
| So I'm going to try to explain to you what's going on in Europe if you're not from there. | ||
| You see this 16-year-old Ukrainian refugee in Germany? | ||
| She was murdered by a beast Iraqi migrant who was set for deportation. | ||
| These two Afghans raped girls that were 13 and 15 in Germany. | ||
| In Morocco, these girls from Sweden and Norway went on a hike. | ||
| Then they got raped and beheaded by ISIS. | ||
| And then the government downplays the whole story, which is crazy. | ||
| In England, citizens get jailed for offensive posts. | ||
| Over 10,000 a year. | ||
| By the way, you see this lady? | ||
| She's in charge of what defines offensive posts and who gets arrested. | ||
| While violent, gang, walk-free, who raped British girls, basically. | ||
| Don't think it can't happen here in Europe and America because it can. | ||
| And believe it or not, it's already starting. | ||
| Yeah, it is already starting. | ||
| And my guess, sadly, is that for Western Europe, it's largely done. | ||
| I think Britain is just screwed. | ||
| I think Spain is screwed. | ||
| I think Italy is probably going to be okay. | ||
| I think France is really effed. | ||
| I think you know my feelings about Eastern Europe, you know, Poland, some of those countries are going to be fine. | ||
| Central Europe, Hungary, particularly, I think is going to be fine. | ||
| But we're confronted with some of this right here. | ||
| It is starting to happen and we have to take it seriously. | ||
| Eva Vlardingerbrook, who I've had on the show multiple times, she's a wonder, she's a great human being, but she's really become an outspoken voice, particularly for women in Holland, the Netherlands, and really for women, I would say, all across Europe. | ||
| And she's become a real, I would say, anti-illegal immigration activist. | ||
| But you could also say in her context, you could say anti-legal immigration because they've legalized so much of the ridiculous immigration situations. | ||
| Here she is talking about the Rotterdam rapes and how that's happening across Europe and just why don't people care? | ||
| However, it is time that someone says the truth about those rapes. | ||
| They aren't incidents. | ||
| People need to understand that the Rotherham rapes that we heard all about on X, thanks to X actually, didn't just happen in Rotherham. | ||
| They happen all over the continent. | ||
| Granted, maybe they don't happen in an equally organized manner like they did in Rotherham, but they are equally intentional in nature in the sense that they have the same core characteristics. | ||
| Namely, immigrants rapes white, boy, or girl, at a moment in a public space where they never could have seen it coming or didn't expect it. | ||
| The victim walked out the door that day, went to school, went to go and visit a family member, visit the park, and they simply never came back home. | ||
| Instead, they were fined, left for dead, half naked somewhere in the bushes. | ||
| I can sense that me saying that makes you uncomfortable. | ||
| And all I can say to that is good. | ||
| Good. | ||
| Because that is our reality. | ||
| And it's been happening under our noses for far too long. | ||
| These are genocidal rapes, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| They're a war tactic used against the native population of Europe to unsettle and ultimately break our soul, if not our entire being. | ||
| Yeah, it's chilling. | ||
| It's scary. | ||
| It's serious stuff. | ||
| And it was done, I would argue, intentionally, for some godforsaken reason by the leaders of Europe. | ||
| We have a party now, the Democrat Party, here in this country, who has let in an untold amount of people. | ||
| By the way, Republicans, not great about it either. | ||
| Trump's gotten it much better and we have the border under control. | ||
| We still will have a story in just a second. | ||
| We still have to figure out how many people we have here and how many people here are who are here legally who would love to destroy this country. | ||
| That's what we have to figure out. | ||
| But as she points out, thank God for X, right? | ||
| It gets to the point of where I was talking about at the top, the disconnect between online media and mainstream media. | ||
| Online, we're all talking about all of this stuff. | ||
| The mainstream media pretends it doesn't happen. | ||
| And then finally, when it's almost too late, everything gets to the mainstream two years later. | ||
| This insane airlock keeps everything out. | ||
| So by the time the mainstream media is talking about something, the ship has already sailed. | ||
| Like the best example of that, obviously, would be Biden's mental health, obviously, right? | ||
| Jake Tapper, you participate in the cover-up of the thing that we're all screaming about for years, and then you write a book about it, right? | ||
| So that it's a time shift. | ||
| It's a time, yeah, I guess that's what you'd call it. | ||
| It's a time shift problem between online and mainstream, and we've got to figure out how to arbitrage those things. | ||
| But in the UK, particularly, the issue here has now become directly connected to free speech because Keir Starmer, the pathetic prime minister of the UK, yes, while he has people outside every weekend calling for genocide and taking over cities and making it rather unpleasant for many people, particularly in London, he's arresting people for posting mean things online and he's bragging about it. | ||
| 400 people now have been arrested. | ||
| 100 are being charged, some in relation to online activity, and a number of them are already in court. | ||
| And I'm now expecting substantive sentencing before the end of this week. | ||
| That should send a very powerful message to anybody involved, either directly or online. | ||
| It's not protest. | ||
| It's not legitimate. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| So you're arresting people for things like calling out your nonsensical immigration policies, for being concerned about rapes of girls and things of that nature, and you're proud of it. | ||
| You're proud of it. | ||
| Meanwhile, every weekend, you have people literally calling for genocide on your streets that take over your streets and shut down commerce and everything else. | ||
| And you don't do anything. | ||
| And by the way, buddy, they will come for you one day when the Islamists and the jihadists, when they take over the palace, right? | ||
| They'll go for the palace first and then they come for you. | ||
| Like, sorry, buddy. | ||
| Sorry, buddy. | ||
| Nobody's going to be around to help you at that point. | ||
| But this idea, this idea that we have to protect ourselves from words, this is something that humans have argued about and debated literally probably since the beginning of time, since we could communicate with each other. | ||
| Like, can you say things? | ||
| Who should be in charge of what can be said? | ||
| There's a great video of Ricky Gerais from, I think, about six years ago talking about free speech and safety when it comes to words. | ||
| Sort of target words and safe zones. | ||
|
unidentified
|
People don't want to hear anything, a word that they don't like. | |
| How arrogant are you to think that you deserve to go through life with no one ever saying anything that you don't agree with or like? | ||
| Yeah, you're pretty arrogant. | ||
| And unfortunately, we now have a group of people that think that they should never be offended, that we should never say. | ||
| This was the danger. | ||
| This was the danger a decade ago when a bunch of us were talking about trigger warnings and safe spaces and all of those things. | ||
| And to illustrate my point about the time shift problem between mainstream and online, when we were all talking about that and saying this is really dangerous because it's going to lead to people who are not prepared to be in the real world, the mainstream media called us all far right. | ||
| We were all far right and alt-right and all of those things. | ||
| But now I want to connect this to something that goes a little bit deeper. | ||
| So if you want to talk about something that's going to get through the airlock in about three years, this is the type of story that in about three years, likely when it's too late, they'll be talking about on CNN. | ||
| Because as you know, I am for free speech, right? | ||
| You can say whatever you want. | ||
| People say awful things about me all the time. | ||
| It was nice not being on Twitter for a month, okay? | ||
| If you directly threaten to kill me, there are certain things, right? | ||
| Like there are certain limitations around it, very, very specific. | ||
| But beyond that, you can say whatever you want. | ||
| Now, the problem is that we now have homegrown people right here who are using the American defense of free speech to destroy America. | ||
| And we have got to figure out what to do about that. | ||
| Listen to this. | ||
| This is a Boston Imam. | ||
| His name is Abdullah Farooq. | ||
| And well, listen to what he has to say, exercising his free speech. | ||
| And I would say just listen to him. | ||

Calling upon God Almighty to send a European home, probably. | |
| Go back where you came from, because you've done nothing but cause hell in this country and all over the world. | ||
| And you can hear me, America. | ||
| You know you've done it. | ||
| Islam is America's future. | ||
| Or without Islam, America will meet its demise. | ||
| Islam needs submission to the will of God. | ||
| This is one nation under God. | ||
| I believe that even if you lied, and even if you lied about this, we hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal. | ||
| And you never believed that. | ||
| And you didn't consider your fellow men as being your equal or fair. | ||
| You're a bunch of cowards because you don't want to get on the basketball court with us because we'll whip you. | ||
| Religion ain't what it used to be. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| Like, what happened to giving a sermon about like love and tolerance and all that stuff? | ||
| Now, I don't think that's a guy that likes America very much. | ||
| And he's basically telling you that. | ||
| He's telling you, Europeans. | ||
| What he's trying to say there is white people, get the hell out of here. | ||
| And we are going to take this country that Islam is going to take this country. | ||
| Now, I'm not for stopping him saying those things. | ||
| And this is the part that we're going to have to grapple with. | ||
| What do we do? | ||
| What do we do when you have a group of people who are here, particularly using places of worship that are tax exempt, to spread the idea that we should destroy the very nation that we are in? | ||
| And then he, it's interesting because he uses language of our founding fathers, right? | ||
| One nation under God, but except he wants it to be his God. | ||
| And if you don't bow to his God, you're going to be subjugated. | ||
| You're going to live as a Demi. | ||
| Well, I don't want to live as a Demi. | ||
| I don't think you want to live as a Demi, but this is really interesting. | ||
| So while Europe is focused on, oh my God, somebody said something mean about Kira Starmer and immigration, we're going to arrest that person, as opposed to, I don't know, maybe arresting the Pakistani rape gangs. | ||
| While they're doing that, we have a different homegrown situation. | ||
| And I'm telling you guys, the airlock situation on this one three years from now, everyone on mainstream media is going to be talking about that sort of thing. | ||
| And that's why I'm trying to address it now. | ||
| Apparently, a bunch of people thought Trump died over the weekend, and they're focusing on that over on MSNBC now. | ||
| We'll talk about that in a second. | ||

All right. | |
| So we've talked a lot about the disconnect between online and mainstream, the airlock, the slow roll of everything, how there seems to be a machine in place that just lies about everything, Russia, Trump, COVID, all of this stuff, and then pretends it has nothing to do with any of it. | ||
| And over on M, I can't, I'm gonna have, that's what I'm gonna have to say. | ||
| All right, we're gonna work on a better catchphrase for it or something. | ||
| An MS now, Jen Saki, who was a paid liar for the Biden administration as spokesperson for Biden, who lied about everything from his health to the border and all the stuff. | ||
| Then she gets a job as a journalist at MSNBC. | ||
| You gotta love it. | ||
| Well, apparently on Twitter over the weekend, there was a trend with lots of views that Donald Trump had died. | ||
| Donald Trump is not dead. | ||
| We double-checked just now. | ||
| He's just fine. | ||
| Even though a lot of people seem to want him dead. | ||
| That led Jen Saki to believe that Trump was hiding something about his health. | ||
| Now, this is a woman before I show you this clip, again, who was really the, she before Corinne Jampier was, she was paid to lie about Joe Biden's health, who actually had health problems. | ||
| And now suddenly they're concerned about Donald Trump's health because he took a couple days off during Labor Day. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That one, that's pretty serious stuff. | |
| Now, just to be clear, we went, and there's a very quick span there. | ||
| We went from Trump saying he hadn't heard about the rumors of his death to Trump saying he did hear about them from reports, to then back to Trump saying he hadn't heard anything about any of it in the span of approximately 60 seconds in the Oval Office today. | ||
| Really can't make this stuff up sometimes. | ||
| And look, we may never know why Donald Trump suddenly spent a week hiding entirely from the American public. | ||
| Man, I don't know if it's from being off the grid or what, but I don't think I live on the same planet as these people. | ||
| Like their ability to lie and to be part of something that then when they're on the other side of it, they act completely differently is it's actually extraordinary. | ||
| Like I'm genuinely fascinated by that psychological makeup. | ||
| You ran cover for Biden, who had dementia, who apparently now has cancer, who God knows what else he had, who governed by an autopen. | ||
| You participated in all of that. | ||
| And you're pretending that Donald Trump, who works 24 hours a day, who's bouncing all over the world, who relentlessly answers reporters' questions, who goes out of his way in press conferences to talk to people while you hid the other guy. | ||
| I mean, it's absurd. | ||
| Here's, I mean, this is just nuts, but here's Trump responding to the rumors that he was dead, which by him stands. | ||
| How did you find out over the weekend that you were dead? | ||
| You see that? | ||
| No, people didn't see it for a couple of days. | ||
| 1.3 million user engagements as of Saturday morning about your demise. | ||
| Really? | ||
|
unidentified
|
You didn't see that? | |
| You know, I have heard it's sort of crazy, but last week I did numerous news conferences, all successful. | ||
| They went very well, like this is going very well. | ||
| And then I didn't do any for two days, and they said there must be something wrong with him. | ||
| Biden wouldn't do him for months. | ||
| You wouldn't see him. | ||
| And nobody ever said there was ever anything wrong with him. | ||
| And we know he wasn't in the greatest of shape. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| That's the point. | ||
| And I do want to say, you know, as someone that just took a month off, I took a month off to her charge. | ||
| I feel really sharp right now. | ||
| Like I tried to declutter my brain. | ||
| I tried to take care of my body and my mind and my spirit and all of those things. | ||
| Trump never takes any time off. | ||
| Try to imagine and the age factor with this guy, right? | ||
| He's not a spring chicken anymore. | ||
| He's out there all the time. | ||
| And that someone like Saki would have the balls to talk about Trump's health after what she just did. | ||
| It's absolutely extraordinary. | ||
| But as you know, like everything with these people, their entire worldview, their entire existential purpose in life is defined by Donald Trump. | ||
| And it's not just him. | ||
| So Tim Walls, there's another guy I didn't think about for a month. | ||
| Tim Walls. | ||
| Here he is telling reporters that he does hope that Trump will die soon. | ||
| You get up in the morning and you doom scroll through things. | ||
| And although I will say this, the last few days you woke up thinking there might be news. | ||
| Just saying. | ||
| Just saying. | ||
| There will be news sometime. | ||
| Just so you know, there will be news. | ||
| Like, what a dirtbag. | ||
| What a dirtbag. | ||
| The guy is the duly elected president of the United States who destroyed you and that ridiculous woman that was at the top of the ticket, won every single swing state. | ||
| And there you are glibly talking about how you'll be excited the day that he dies. | ||
| Like you're just. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And then, well, honey, would you like to go to the Tim Walls show tonight? | |
| Here's Scott Jennings, and he drops a little colorful language on CNN as it pertains to Tim Walls. | ||
| But I'll tell you who is a complete piece of shit. | ||
| I'm going to tell you right now. | ||
| There have been a lot of swear results. | ||
| Tim Walls, the governor of Minnesota, holding up a phone in front of a rally saying, well, we thought we were going to wake up and find out the president had died. | ||
| Someday it'll happen. | ||
| Someday it'll happen. | ||
| I used to say he was the biggest buffoon in American politics, but it's worse now. | ||
| No political official, no elected official should be walking around saying, well, I'm hoping we wake up one day and the president of the United States has died. | ||
| Crazy. | ||
| Absolutely crazy. | ||
| Yeah, of course it's crazy. | ||
| And of course, that's all true. | ||
| And it's also another, I would say, indicator of how far the Democrat Party has fallen. | ||
| Who is the adult in the Democrat Party right now that might get out there? | ||
| Like, who is their leader, their statesman who might get out there and say, you know, Tim Walls, you got pretty damn close to being vice president of the United States, which means you would have been pretty damn close to being president of the United States. | ||
| Maybe you shouldn't be ginning people up to be excited about the president dying. | ||
| Like, that's not good. | ||
| I would say the only person who's left in the Democrat Party that could have, and this isn't right, actually, the only person who is left that still considers themselves a Democrat that could do anything to moderate the party is actually Bill Clinton. | ||
| It's not Hillary Clinton. | ||
| She's way too, she's too radioactive at this point. | ||
| And Bill is largely irrelevant. | ||
| It seems like he is particularly failing health. | ||
| I don't want him to die. | ||
| Yes, we will all meet our maker one day. | ||
| But he wasn't a crazed radical lunatic. | ||
| And I think some people across the aisle do like him to some extent, maybe, but he can't even do it because he knows that the inmates are running the asylum. | ||
| The place is out of control. | ||
| The house is burning down and there ain't no firefighters coming. | ||
| So it leaves you with all of these radicals. | ||
| And check this out from Fox News, more from Tim Walls, because I guess he's jockeying. | ||
| If he sees Newsom on one side trying to jockey to be the leader, he's taking another tack at it. | ||
| Walls urges Democrats to be a little meaner, bully the shit out of Trump because it's going to be a challenging few years. | ||
| Yes, that's what we need right now, that we should be a little bit meaner. | ||
| I'm trying at these 59 minutes or so to be a little bit nicer, probably failing at it to some degree, but I think you can see I'm trying a little bit. | ||
| Probably tomorrow I'll try a little bit less and by Friday, yeah, they'll be dropping the C-word. | ||
| But I don't think we need more hate right now. | ||
| I don't think we need more anger right now. | ||
| I don't think we need more rejoicing over the potential demise of the president of the United States, because when we gin up the hate around the board, people actually do get killed. | ||
| I think probably perhaps the biggest story outside of the Putin-Trump thing that I missed when I was gone was this Minneapolis Catholic school shooting. | ||
| And listen to this. | ||
| This is from Leftism for You on Twitter. | ||
| The Minneapolis Catholic school shooter was Robin Westman. | ||
| He was a biological male who identified as a transgender woman. | ||
| Written on his guns and magazines were things like, kill Trump Now, 6 million was not enough, referring to the Holocaust, for the children, I'm the woker baby, why so queer is. | ||
| He uploaded an 11-minute video showing his guns, magazines, and manifesto and posted it on YouTube shortly before carrying out his act of terrorism. | ||
| We're going to get to some of the names and faces of the victims because I mentioned when Jillian told me that story yesterday, I mentioned it's like, we always know the name of the bad guys. | ||
| We always know the name of the El Salvadorian, no, the Maryland man who was, you know, trafficking people, Brego Garcia. | ||
| And we never know the names of the people that they do damage to. | ||
| So we'll get to that in just a second. | ||
| But can you just put that image up again, the leftism tweet again? | ||
| Look, this is a guy. | ||
| That is a guy who, for whatever confusion or psychological condition or whatever, wanted to be a woman. | ||
| Now you after being away for a while, you cannot change your gender, but as an adult, if you want to live however you want to live, okay, so be it. | ||
| But there obviously was a psychological condition there. | ||
| And then to write things on the gun, like you want more, I guess you weren't happy with the amount of Jews that were killed in the Holocaust, okay? | ||
| And you want Trump to be dead and everything else. | ||
| It's like, Tim Walls, do you realize what you guys have done? | ||
| The psychological condition that you have left young people in the United States with, telling them the earth is going to end in 12 years, six years ago, AOC, because of climate change, right? | ||
| Telling them that Donald Trump was racist and was Hitler, telling them that this place fundamentally was founded on slavery, to hate freedom, to hate capitalism, to hate free speech, to be afraid of things that might offend them. | ||
| If you do all of that to several generations for a while, then horrific things happen. | ||
| And this from Benny Johnson, a bit on the victims of that shooting. | ||
| These are the innocent faces of the victims of transgender violence. | ||
| 10-year-old Harper Moiske was murdered. | ||
| Eight-year-old Fletcher Markell was murdered. | ||
| 13-year-old Andre Gunter is recovering after surgery. | ||
| 12-year-old Sophia Forchas is fighting for her life in the ICU. | ||
| There are many more victims who are recovering. | ||
| And look, guys, this is what we have to grapple with, right? | ||
| Like, why don't the Democrats talk about those kids? | ||
| Where are the Democrats going to those families? | ||
| We know Trump does it, right? | ||
| When people get shot, when some sort of horrific act of God happens, Hurricane whatever, Trump shows up. | ||
| They show up. | ||
| They try to fix things, make things right to whatever extent you can when you lose a child. | ||
| It's unimaginable. | ||
| But why don't the Democrats seem to care about these people? | ||
| Because they're always in it for the revolution more than anything else. | ||
| And again, we have a lot of signs with these people. | ||
| People who don't know basic truths about biological reality, people who fundamentally hate this country that are spending all day tweeting about it, who are sending death threats to people and everything else. | ||
| Like, maybe we need to be looking into them a bit more. | ||
| Here's White House Director for Counter Terrorism, Seb Gorka, talking about that. | ||
| So what we should do is we should look at the early warning signals, the signs. | ||
| One of these shooters at a recent school shooting had 24 interactions with a local law enforcement. | ||
| Now, that beggars belief. | ||
| We should be providing off-ramps. | ||
| We should providing mental health options for these individuals. | ||
| I find it hard to believe that an individual goes from getting his mother to sign a change of name certificate, age 17, and then just a handful of years later is mowing down innocent children in a church pew during a Catholic mass, and nobody realized there was a problem. | ||
| That's what we have to address to save the next children from the next atrocity. | ||
| It's not about the sexual proclivities of the individual. | ||
| It's the fact that nobody seems to notice a very disturbing pattern towards violence. | ||
| You don't end up, you don't wake up one morning saying, I'm going to do a video on YouTube threatening to kill the president, targeting Jews, targeting children. | ||
| That doesn't happen overnight. | ||
| Somebody saw that degradation. | ||
| Somebody saw those mental issues and said nothing. | ||
| That's what we have to prevent. | ||
| The early warning signals must be addressed if children's lives are to be saved. | ||
| That's good. | ||
| That's good. | ||
| And that's true. | ||
| And that's right. | ||
| Well done, Seb Gorka. | ||
| It's not, and again, there's a societal problem to all of this because of the way they've ginned up the fear with young people. | ||
| And then, and then there's layers of this that I just don't even think, I don't even think that me at the hype old age of 49 really understands who have been brought up in the age where they handed you this thing at five and they were just like, okay, go, we're at dinner. | ||
| Go get on this thing. | ||
| Let's see what happens. | ||
| And all of the crazed information that you're getting and all of the rabbit holes of the internet and all of the, you're opening up a portal to the world so that not only your young child has access to everything, but then anyone has access to them. | ||
| And then we left all of these young people in this horrific state of confusion. | ||
| So we're going to have to figure out how to deal with some of this stuff. | ||
| Now, this is great. | ||
| This is really great. | ||
| Some of this has obviously been a little dark the last couple minutes, but this is really beautiful. | ||
| This is from Libs of TikTok. | ||
| And over at Temecula Valley Middle School in California, a bunch of young boys did a walkout to protest the woke policies that were allowing young boys into female restrooms. | ||
| This is just great. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right, boys. | |
| Why are you here today? | ||
| And why should we protect girls in the bathrooms, locker rooms, and sports? | ||
| Fair enough? | ||
| I'm here to support my friends because they're suffering from a change that they got that has immense, you know, and the woman should not be doing that because it belongs to the women's locker room. | ||
| I don't think it's all right. | ||
| And I'm going to say that. | ||
| I wouldn't let women have the right to be disgusted if a boy is changing into in the girl's locker room. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That'll give you some hope right now. | ||
| I mean, those kids know more about basic biology than anyone in the Democrat Party. | ||
| What does that tell you? | ||
| What does, even the way he has to say it, because he's a kid. | ||
| He's a kid and he's trying to basically explain, there's a kick with a whang and like, come on. | ||
| Come on. | ||
| But that should give you hope because if you push, there is something about the human condition where if you push us far enough, there is something deep in the human soul that eventually pushes back. | ||
| And that's what we have to, that's what we have to kind of congregate around and figure out how we can like get back. | ||
| And that's the backdrop of what I said I was going to really focus on for this season of the show, that we are rolling into 2026 in America, the 250th year of this great country. | ||
| And if we can just take that opportunity, that moment to be like, man, you know what? | ||
| It has been pretty damn good here. | ||
| And there are fundamental values that we have here that make us the jealousy of the world. | ||
| And that's why everyone wants to come and nobody wants to leave. | ||
| And we're going to have to put some of the crazies aside and deal with some of the homegrown BS and all of the stuff. | ||
| Then there is just an incredible bright future. | ||
| There really, really is. | ||
| And I thought we'd end the show on, this is a throwback video. | ||
| We've shown you this, I think, once before. | ||
| But my buddy Clay Travis was doing a talk and really explained, I think, the difference between what, putting aside politics for a moment, the difference between what has happened with men and women as it pertains to political parties. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Or what is it that people who are not, who, as Magdalene said, people who don't understand why? | |
| That's my first question. | ||
| I have a second one. | ||
| But go ahead. | ||
| Okay, so what I would start with is men aspire to be bigger, stronger, and faster than we are, almost universally. | ||
| That's why superheroes are popular. | ||
| That's why pro-athletes are popular. | ||
| Who is the most masculine Democrat right now in America? | ||
| Mayor Pete. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Is that a gay job? | |
| No, no. | ||
| Mayor Pete. | ||
| No, well, no, it's just that he's not particularly masculine. | ||
| Nobody's like, oh, Mayor Pete, he's a badass. | ||
| Chuck Schumer. | ||
| Is anybody like, hey, you know, Chuck Schumer holding up an avocado and a beer to talk about the Super Bowl? | ||
| Is anybody like that trying to grill? | ||
| Is anybody like, hey, that's a dude I want to hang out with? | ||
|
unidentified
|
But Trump's like a grandpa. | |
| Well, hold on. | ||
| Trump took a bullet in his ear and immediately stood up and said, fight, fight, fight. | ||
| Every man in America and most of the women out here were impressed by that, even if the women won't admit it. | ||
| She's shaking her head strong. | ||
| And second part of this, basically summing it up, Democrats for men are pussies and Republicans for men are pussies. | ||
| There are no masculine men in the Democrat Party right now. | ||
| The reason I wanted to end on that clip today is because after being away for a while, look, the politics stuff, it's always going to come. | ||
| It's always going to come and go. | ||
| It's going to come and go. | ||
| The show will continue. | ||
| There'll be a new story about something tomorrow and anything else. | ||
| But the deeper part is really what's going on with us as people, us as people. | ||
| You know, that really is the deeper part. | ||
| Remember Rocky IV? | ||
| Remember Rocky IV when Apollo is about to get back in the ring with Drago? | ||
| And he's old at this point. | ||
| He hasn't fought in five years and Drago is huge and everyone knows that Apollo is going to get mauled. | ||
| And Rocky's like, why are you doing this? | ||
| Why are you doing this? | ||
| And Apollo's like, I'm fighting myself, man. | ||
| I'm fighting myself. | ||
| He's trying to find something that he used to have. | ||
| Well, I kind of think that's what America has to do right now. | ||
| We should just have a national viewing day of Rocky IV. | ||
| I think we could fix a lot of this stuff. | ||
| All right, guys, we are back, people. | ||
| As I said, bunch of big announcements coming over the next couple of weeks. | ||
| I'm glad to be back. | ||
| Thank you guys for watching and appreciate that. | ||
| Well, I hope, I'll tell you what I appreciate in a moment. | ||
| I hope that you took a little time in August as well. | ||
| But I appreciate everybody that tuned in with all of our AI stuff and some of the documentaries we put up and a bunch more. | ||
| This year, we're going to do a lot more out of the studio. | ||
| We're going to be traveling a bit more and a whole host of surprises. | ||
| So stay tuned on all of that. | ||
| We've got a post-game show coming up in 30 seconds. | ||
