Cheryl Hines Makes Joe Rogan Go Quiet with Ugly Untold Stories of How Politics Really Works
Cheryl Hines, married to Bobby Kennedy, exposed politics’ ruthless underbelly on Joe Rogan’s podcast, detailing how Democrats weaponized primaries and media attacks—like comparing ICE agents to the KKK—while ignoring violent criminal records among 60% of arrested immigrants. Florida’s billionaire influx (Zuckerberg, Brin) and economic surge contrast California’s $1T wealth loss under progressive policies, proving governance over ideology wins. Meanwhile, officials like Sheriff Gary McFadden mislabel their roles, and Beshear justifies child gender transitions via faith, while Stewart’s "woke" mockery of DeSantis highlights liberalism’s fractured legacy. The system rewards dishonesty, risking irreversible cultural and fiscal decline. [Automatically generated summary]
Did I know any of the songs Bad Buddy was singing?
Absolutely not.
20 people sit in a room and come up with that.
They were printers and journalists, but they were enslavers.
That is as good as it gets.
Is there times in which the rhetoric goes too far?
No.
You'll do whatever you have to do, no matter how dishonest or corrupt.
There on the other side of the screen, I'm Dave Rubin.
This is the Rubin Report.
It's February 11th, 2026.
We are live streaming on Rumble, on YouTube, and on locals.
If you'd like to join us after the show, you can go to RubinReport.locals.com for a post-game show.
We are a show for normal people, as it said right there.
Look, there it is.
Whoop-woo!
Post-game show, RubinReport.locals.com.
Now tell them it's a show for normal people.
Put that back.
Can you put that?
There you go.
Look at this.
Okay.
He's pressing all the buttons over there.
And today's show is jam-packed.
You know, yesterday's show was what I said at the top.
It was just kind of, it was sort of easy.
It was just like an easy roll throughout the hour because there wasn't a lot of breaking news.
There's actually not a ton that's breaking right now, but there's just like a lot of little things that I think we can put into a nice little present for you.
I think you're going to enjoy it.
So let's dive right in.
Cheryl Hines, who most of you know as Cheryl David from Curbier Enthusiasm, who I had on the show about two months ago now, who in TV land is married to Larry David, but in reality is married to Bobby Kennedy.
Cheryl On Bobby Kennedy00:14:03
And she has suddenly found herself after a 30, 40 year career as an actress who I don't think many people knew any of her political opinions, suddenly has found herself in the middle of the political firestorm because she's married to Bobby Kennedy and the Ladies of the View went after her and much more.
She's making the rounds because she has a book out now.
And of course, the book is not about politics.
It's about acting.
However, she went on Rogan yesterday.
And I want to show you two clips on this thing because she makes some interesting points about what it's like to suddenly be involved in politics or what it's like when you suddenly are outside of what the Democrats or the left say is the acceptable political window.
Take a look.
Was it just being attached to Bobby and watching all that?
It was Bobby running for president.
It was so crazy.
I mean, the craziest sh ⁇ goes on.
And everybody is, that's all they think about, you know, the people that are involved.
They get up in the morning.
How can I this guy over?
I'm going to say, and they have these people that their only job is to start a rumor, is to say something, put something in the press that doesn't matter if it's true or not.
If somebody else picks it up, they celebrate for the whole day.
And it's like that story, whatever it was, the thing that they said gets picked up.
That is like a day of celebration.
It's a celebration from the other camps.
All right.
So I know you guys get this.
Politics is dirty and it's nasty and they do all sorts of awful things.
What's interesting about her saying that is that as Democrats and as a Kennedy, they were always on the side until Bobby decided to run first in the primary against Joe Biden.
They were always on the side that was sort of the acceptable side, especially if you were someone in Hollywood.
As a matter of fact, when he was running as a Democrat early on, I did a live event with him in Bel Air in Los Angeles.
And literally about 20 minutes before we took the stage, he got a call.
I was standing there with him that someone had just scaled the fence at their house while Cheryl was home.
That's just one of many versions of how they, well, they'll scare the hell out of you.
They'll threaten you.
They might try to shoot you.
He also had other threats on his life.
They will drop rumors about you, et cetera, et cetera.
Now, here's the interesting part, though, because Bobby just started saying, hey, I'm not a completely woke Democrat.
You may remember I warned him very early on, you will not be a Democrat by the end of this thing.
I don't know if you'll be a Republican, but you will not be a Democrat.
He started, you know, in essence, leaving the Democrat Party, although they really did push him out.
Some people leave voluntarily.
They pushed him out.
Let's not forget that when he was running during the primaries, the Democrats were trying to rig the primaries so that any state where Joe Biden's name was on the ballot as a primary, which of course he was on every state ballot, that Bobby, if Bobby ran, he would get no mandates whatsoever.
Anyway, what Cheryl and Bobby decided to do was go to the alternate media.
And that's what blew up Maha.
That's what connected, I would say, Maha to MAGA, because Trump was all about the alternative media for the last 10 years.
And take a look.
By the way, you know, when Bobby decided to run and he, I know I talk about this in my book, Unscripted, when he came on your podcast was a game changer, right?
Because everything that you're saying is true.
And the press was going hard.
They still do.
They were going hard at Bobby, like he's this, he's that.
Here's what he thinks.
Here's what he represents.
And then he came on your podcast and you guys had a conversation.
Yeah.
And, you know, you're curious and you're a great listener and you're not judgmental.
And people heard what Bobby had to say and it changed everything for him.
Well, I think it helped also that I knew who he was.
I read his book and I had also had negative opinions of him before I actually read what he said.
So there's a reason I'm showing you this beyond just the obvious part that online media is now important and mainstream media lives and politics is dirty.
I want to now connect this to something that happened within the last 48 hours, which is this insane.
This is utterly insane.
And it's a perfect illustration of what Cheryl was talking about right there.
This is a hearing about ICE and a woman by the name, I think we've covered her once or twice before a few weeks ago, a New Jersey representative.
Her name is LaMonica McIver.
And listen to her attacking ICE director Todd Lyons.
Does not matter what you think, whether ICE is good, bad, and different.
Look at the way she attacks him and then think about what Cheryl was saying about how the way they will try to manipulate you.
Watch.
Mr. Lyons, do you consider yourself a religious man?
Yes, ma'am.
Oh, yes.
Okay.
Well, how do you think Judgment Day will work for you with so much blood on your hands?
I'm not going to entertain that question.
Oh, okay, of course not.
Do you think you're going to hell, Mr. Lyons?
I'm not going to entertain that.
Of course.
How many government?
Again, criminals act with that total disregard for the law, and we continue to see it.
You would both have us talk about respect for your mission and your agents.
But your agencies are unaccountable, paramilitary forces, and I have just as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color.
I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klan Hood and the slave patrol.
In holy sheepshit, when I tell you there is no one left in the Democrat Party to stop the lunacy, that is a perfect example.
So La Monica MacIver was the first woman.
We'll get to her comments in a second.
The second one was Dahlia Martinez from Chicago, both Democrats, progressives.
Does that strike you as the type of rhetoric that should be going on in a hearing about ICE?
Again, let's say you have whatever your concerns are about ICE mission, their behavior, and everything else.
There's a way to question that that could be honest.
You could say, well, tell us about how many officers you have in there and tell us a little bit about the chain of command and what are the standard operating procedures when a group of people get in their way and how do you tell them to negotiate for a while or ask people to get out of the streets.
There's so many ways you could do something honest and real.
Again, whether I agree with their tactics or she agrees with their tactics or anything else, but that's not what they did.
That is the most hyper manipulative and manipulative and I would say downright evil, honestly, downright evil stuff that you could toss out at a hearing.
Are you a religious man?
So she wants to use his religion against him and the blood on his hands.
The blood on his hands, well, it is true that two people have been killed, Renee Goode and the other guy, Pretty.
Pretty, the two or three days before, was absolutely, we've shown you the video, attacking ICE cars, screaming, you know, getting in their way and everything else.
He also had a loaded gun on him.
And Renee Goode did put her SUV in forward position and hit a ICE officer who then shot her without relitigating any of that.
The idea that he has blood on his hands, it is so profoundly evil.
But when I tell you that there's nobody left in the Democrat Party doing anything about it, in a sane world, if there was anyone left in the Democrat Party that was an adult or anything else, those two would be censured.
They would probably be kicked out of Congress.
Now, I get it's not going to happen.
And actually, all the sane people are being kicked out.
But that is, it is beyond, beyond unacceptable by the two of them.
And he should not have been subjected to that.
It is worth noting that La Monica, we did show you a video of her back in June of 25.
She was arrested for assaulting ICE officers outside a Newark ICE facility.
But okay, so they're pretty terrible, but you don't hear about those two chicks too often.
So let's go to somebody you do hear about, unfortunately.
It's a man who slept with a Chinese spy, which again, sort of like Ilhan Omar marrying her brother to commit federal immigration fraud.
Somebody might want to look into that if anyone's watching today and you want to pass that along to somebody that might be able to do something about it.
Eric Swalwell, banged a Chinese spy, also farted live on MSNBC with Chris Matthews.
And here he is with another.
This is just such a great use of time and great question, Swalwell.
Supposed to protect or will you side with the killers bringing terror to our streets?
Mr. Lyons, will you resign from ICE?
No, sir, I won't.
Why not?
Because, sir, that child that you're showing right there, the men and women of ICE took care of him when his father abandoned him in rampants.
Time has expired.
He never should have gone.
Time has expired.
I recognize the gentleman from Mississippi.
I mean, Swalwell, he's as bad as those two.
Like, awful.
Side with the killers.
The killers, you're talking about the ICE agents.
What about the killers who have killed how many?
We don't even know the number.
We actually don't even know the number, but the amount of women, Lake and Riley and all the rest, who have been killed and raped, and you never say a word about that, Swalwell.
You fraud.
You utter, utter fraud.
And then will you resign?
Like Swalwell, if you had the tiniest, the tiniest bit of humility, you would resign.
Instead, you're running for governor of Cali, which good luck with all of that.
Interestingly, listen to this.
And if you want to see how, so, okay, so the Democrat, what we've illustrated so far is Cheryl points out there's a machine that'll just come and take you out.
Now the alternate media offers a little bit of a buffer there.
Then there's the Democrat politicians, right, who just will say the most absolutely disgusting possible things in a hearing.
And then there's the mainstream media that launders some of the lies.
So watch this from CBS News yesterday.
Less than 14% of nearly 400,000 immigrants arrested by immigration and customs enforcement in President Trump's first year back in the White House had charges or convictions for violent criminal offenses, according to an internal Department of Homeland Security document obtained by CBS News.
The official statistics contained in the DHS document, which had not been previously reported publicly, provide the most detailed look into yet who ICE has arrested during the Trump administration's far-reaching deportations operations across the U.S.
Now, interestingly, Connor, leave that up for just a second.
Note the way CBS News frames it, the first couple words.
Less than 14% of the nearly 400,000 immigrants, they don't say illegal immigrants or illegal aliens or anything else.
The implication is somehow these are just immigrants the way your grandparents were immigrants.
And it's not.
These are illegal.
So they've already fudged some stuff there.
But here is Caroline Levitt explaining that there was a little more fudge happening.
Well, thank you for bringing this up, Caroline.
I've seen this CBS report floating around.
There's a lot of liberal talking heads and pundits and Democrat elected politicians who think that this single story and these statistics and the way they are painted is somehow a shot at this administration.
It is not.
And let me correct the record.
Number one, the Trump administration has been clear from day one that any illegal alien present in this country is subject to deportation.
However, the priority, of course, is going after the convicted criminals, the worst of the worst, the murderers, the pedophiles, the rapists in this country.
Interestingly, in the CBS story, what the Democrat talking heads on television are not saying is this line.
Nearly 60% of ICE arrestees over the past year had criminal charges or convictions.
And among that population, the majority of the criminal charges or convictions are for nonviolent crimes.
These so-called non-violent crimes, drug trafficking, distribution of child porn, burglary, fraud, DUI, embezzlement, solicitation of a minor, and human smuggling, just to name a few.
Strange Eric Swalwell, you'll never say anything about those crimes.
Why is that?
Now, interestingly, you might be thinking as you're listening right now, 400,000 arrested.
That is separate, as far as we understand it.
And we were just double-checking it right now from the 700,000 plus who have been deported, right?
So 700,000 have been deported, 400,000 arrested.
That's what they're dealing with here.
Apparently, have not been deported yet.
I thought this was interesting from Polymarket.
You know, they check the betting odds on all of these things just to kind of get a temperature of what people are saying.
The question was, how many people will Trump deport in 2026?
12% say less than 200,000.
14% say 200,000 to 300,000.
And 30% say 300 to 400,000.
Now, I really want you to think about that for a sec.
It doesn't matter which one of those numbers is correct.
Those numbers are all pretty freaking low.
If we got 21 million people illegal in four years on top of everybody else, but let's say it's half of that.
It's 10 million.
And we deport 300,000 this year.
We've barely taken a dent.
Let's say it's half of the 10.
It's 5 million and we deport 400,000.
That's barely 10% of that.
So as crazy, they're making it sound like Donald Trump is going in with all the forests in the world doing all of the evil things and that huge swaths of these people are being taken out.
And that isn't even true.
I would be for it, but that's not even what's happening here.
It might be happening in Japan, however.
So we'll get to that in just a second.
Japan's Cultural Preservation Efforts00:09:22

All right, so we covered this about two months ago.
Japan has voted in a new conservative prime minister.
Her name is Sanai Takaichi.
Am I pronouncing that right?
Can you help me with that?
Sanai Takaichi.
Is that right, Joseph?
Dave, I'm from Los Angeles.
Oh, Arigato.
Arigato.
I believe I'm pronouncing it correctly.
Let me give you a little info here from NBC because she doesn't sound like she's going to be taking it.
Well, it sounds like she will be taking prisoners, actually.
Japan's conservative prime minister, Sanai Takaichi, has won a landslide victory after she gambled on a high-stakes snap election.
Takaichi, who took office in October after being elected leader of the Liberal Democrat Party, surpassed the 310 seats needed for a supermajority in the 465-seat lower house, Japanese public broadcaster NHK reported from the official election count Sunday evening.
The supermajority allowing her ruling coalition to override the upper house where it lacks a majority.
The far-right Sensito Party, which promises to put Japanese first, was projected to take up to 14 seats according to exit polls, which would quadruple the number but fall short of the 30 it had targeted.
For many voters, Takaichi, a motorbike enthusiast and heavy metal drummer, is a refreshing change of pace in Japan's male-dominated politics, despite having traditionalist views that are not always seen as advancing women and the appointment of just two women in her cabinet.
Now, so there's something kind of cool about her, right?
You can watch her on the motorbike.
She's younger.
She's female.
It's a little, there's a lot of different stuff.
But she basically ran on making Japan great again, right?
She ran on Japan is for Japanese people.
We have a culture to protect.
There are foods we like.
We have customs that we have.
We like to keep our streets safe and clean, etc.
I thought this was interesting from Geiger Capital on X. Japan just sent a historic message.
New right-wing prime minister Sanai Takaichi just won a landslide election in their parliamentary victory, parliamentary election.
She's anti-illegal immigration, wants to maintain Japanese core culture, and is a China hawk.
Japan has given her a sweeping mandate.
Now, this is the key part because this is where I think we can connect it to what's happening in America.
Listen to this from Nick Kapoor, who's a Japanese historian.
Astonishing chart showing support by Takaichi by age.
Traditional narrative is the surfeit of old people in Japan is keeping conservatives in power.
But as with Trump in 2024, young people were the main driver behind Takai Chi's landslides victory.
So that's super interesting.
If you look at those numbers right now, you don't even have to understand Japanese to get it.
Young people were becoming more conservative.
And I don't know enough about Japanese internal politics or culture to talk about whether that means conservative in the most traditional sense.
But they are basically saying Japan is for Japanese people, for Japan people.
And that is not racist or anything else.
One more tweet from a Japanese politics account.
Haruka Suzumori.
Various polls in Japan now confirm that the misnamed Centrist Reform Alliance, which is actually a left-leaning group, has 2% support with under 30s.
This is a devastating blow for the left.
Other left-wing parties barely register above the single digits as well.
So why am I showing you all of this for a show that doesn't usually cover Japanese politics?
Well, it's because there's something super interesting about a country, sort of why I've gone to Hungary several times over the last couple of years, and I believe we're going next month again.
There's something interesting about small countries that have a culture that are desperately trying to protect it while we are a massive country, the last world superpower, and we are a diverse nation.
I used to say a phrase like diverse in a positive sense.
Now it's not so positive anymore.
But we are seemingly unable to defend, not only to defend our culture, but then when we have hordes of people coming in, we have a Democrat Party that is trying to advance their invasion.
That is what's happening here.
That's counter to what's happening in Japan.
This is sort of interesting.
It's a quick little video.
So they are literally, quite literally right now, they're grabbing people on the streets.
This isn't the type of image that you would generally see out of Japan, but they are grabbing them on the streets.
If you are illegal, you've got to go.
Interestingly, I am not kidding about this.
They are calling this deportation style the sushi-wrapping deportations or the human sushi role because they're just wrapping them up, taking, I assume they dip them in some soy sauce, little wasabi, send them back to Africa.
Here is Japan's Conservative Party leader, Naoki Hayukata, talking about how immigration is the issue and they are going to solve it.
But as expected, it's the immigration issue.
Honestly, I think the immigration issue might be the most significant problem among all the issues we're facing today.
As I've said many times before, once the number of immigrants increases and crosses a certain line, there's absolutely no way of turning back.
Japan as a country will never return to what it once was.
Once Japanese society and culture change, no matter what kind of policies you try to implement, you can never go back to how things were.
Why is that?
Well, rather than thinking about it theoretically, if you look at it inductively, just look at Europe, and it's obvious.
Right now, some countries in Europe are desperately trying all sorts of things to return to how they were.
But honestly, it's impossible.
already knew this europe is never going all right so just quick note Obviously, that's an AI translation, but he's right.
He's right.
So why is it taking a politician in Japan to properly explain to the Europeans what they should have done?
And what he's saying is, well, we see what they've done for the last 20 years, and we will not do it here.
We will not import or allow people to come in to fundamentally alter our nation, our culture, our values, etc., etc.
And we are going to do something about it before it destroys our country.
And as I often say, if you could go back, if you had a time machine and you could go back 20 years ago and you're the average Brit or you're the average Frenchman, any of those countries in Western Europe, and you could do it differently when they were telling you, oh, we need these people to come here or they were making you feel guilty for having what you have while they don't have this or anything else.
Almost everyone, almost every native Brit would do it differently.
And that's just an obvious fact, except the most brain-broken leftist backwards person who wants, who literally exists to destroy Western values, everyone would do it differently.
So it is important to note that Hungary is doing it right, that Japan is doing it right.
There are other countries that are trying, Poland is doing it right.
There are places that are trying to do it right.
And that's all to the backdrop of Trump is trying to do it right here.
And yet he is fighting a political establishment, a Democrat Party, and a media that is trying to hamper him in every way.
And if he does not succeed for the next 10 months, we will be Europe.
That's where we're at.
And here's a freaking stark warning of all that.
This is also an AI translation.
This was making the rounds over the last couple of days on Twitter.
It's actually from 2017.
But what happens when you are a country who decides to import people who don't share values with you?
And then you have politicians who pander to that, who pander to the endless amount of suicidal empathy that Gad Sad talks about.
Well, listen to the Australian president and what his plans were for the, not Australian, thank you, Austrian president, and what his plans were for the future of Austria.
Any woman can wear a headscarf.
And if things keep going this way, and that brings me to the next question, this truly spreading Islamophobia, there will come a day when we will have to ask all women to wear a headscarf.
All of them.
As a show of solidarity with those who wear it for religious reasons.
So congratulations, Austria.
That was 2017.
And we now know across Europe there are way more women wearing headscarves.
Now, if women choose to wear a headscarf for a religious reason or because there's a little brisk wind out there or whatever, that's just fine.
Questions Allowed Lies00:06:29
But we do know that most of these women, particularly the young girls, don't choose this, right?
This is being forced upon them.
And what does that have to do with Austria?
And it's Islamophobic to point that out.
That's completely and utterly absurd.
If you are a woman or a religious minority or gay or anything else or a Muslim who just simply doesn't believe, right?
You're an atheist Muslim or you're just not a practicing Muslim.
It's not a phobia to think that that set of ideas is bad, the set of ideas which literally will have you killed.
That would be the reverse of a phobia.
What's a reverse of a phobia?
I don't know what pretty rational thought about that.
But Western Europe seems to want to fall on the sword.
Certain places are trying not to.
And we're in a struggle session about it as a nation.
And if we don't get this struggle session, if we do not get this struggle session right, we will be where all of them are.
So we're how many minutes in?
27 minutes in.
We have not talked about the view yet.
And now we're going to do it.
And I see what happens in the comments.
People, it's very, it's 50-50.
People, I hate those women of the view.
Keep giving me more.
And then the other 50 say, I hate those women of the view.
Stop doing it to me.
And we're sort of ambivalent on that.
But there's a reason we're showing you this one.
And it's actually not too much about the hosts themselves.
Katanji Brown Jackson, a woman who could not define woman when she was going through the confirmation process to become a Supreme Court justice, she has just written her second memoir.
She's only four years into this thing.
She's written two memoirs.
How old is she?
She's probably younger than me, right?
She's the youngest one.
She's got, what is she?
I'm going to guess early 40s, probably.
Let's check.
She's 55, pretty young, but two memoirs already.
hasn't written a particularly good briefing that anyone has really pointed to as like, wow, this woman's a wizard.
But she did win a Grammy.
Or no, she was nominated for a Grammy for her audiobook.
I've done two audiobooks.
I thought they were pretty good.
The Grammy people just completely ignore me.
Take a look.
But do you still have confidence in our courts to defend free and fair elections?
I personally am worried about all of it.
Oh, well, I absolutely have confidence in our courts.
It is a part of our system that judges look at the law and that we are bound to support and defend the Constitution.
That's our duty.
Well, that's a very, well, that was actually a fairly impressive answer.
I don't think that's what she fundamentally believes.
And for a woman to not know what a woman is is kind of scary.
I also love it.
It's just like you think that these women are sitting there and like they're just coming up with these questions.
You can literally see Joy reading off the teleprompter.
Like they hand them questions.
They're puppets.
You understand?
The Muppet Show is coming back.
Did you guys see that?
They're bringing back the Muppet Show.
They are puppets.
Short of someone having their hand in their ass, which may happen, that's just, I just got to, that is what those women are.
But okay, she has faith in the courts.
Now, that's ironic because one of the things that the Democrats keep saying is once they get power, they will pack the courts because they don't like the courts' decisions.
But there you have one of their Supreme Court justices saying the courts are doing a nice, a nice job.
And ironically, the Democrats, they only like the courts when the courts are going in their direction, right?
That's how it is.
Republicans, sometimes, because Republicans believe in the rule of law more, sometimes you'll see a bad decision by a court or shouldn't even say bad decision.
You will see a decision that, let's say, people on the right don't agree with.
Their answer is not to pack the court.
It is to get a case to come back and to make an argument about it.
The Democrats are, oh, we didn't get the decision we like.
Let's pack the court, meaning let's burn down the system in order to get what we want.
I thought this was interesting, and you'll see how we connected here.
Joy Reid, the blonde lady who is over on MSNBC, and she got fired because she's a horrible racist lunatic.
Here she is explaining that at MSNBC, she was not allowed to lie.
All she did there was lie, but she's going to tell you that she wasn't allowed to lie.
I will say that at MSNBC, the artist formerly known as MSNBC, the one thing I will give them credit for is that because we were tied to NBC News, all the outrage was tied to journalism.
We weren't allowed to just get up there and lie.
We had a standards and practices department.
So if we just had a feeling that Trump was a bad guy, we couldn't just get up there and say that.
We needed to actually have evidence.
We needed to have something to say that was journalistically based.
Then we could say what we were going to say, but it had to be based on journalism.
Fox doesn't have that.
They don't have a standards and practice department.
They can just get up there and say Bill Clinton is the devil.
And they don't even have to back that up.
That is such utter nonsense.
Like, Lady Mirror, you could, okay, you couldn't just say Donald Trump is a bad guy.
Like, we don't even have a compilation for you, but how many times have I shown you videos of her calling him a white supremacist?
They were lying about COVID.
They were lying about very fine people on both sides.
They were lying about the Hunter Biden laptop story.
The idea that they had a standards and practice.
Now, do I believe there's a department?
Like, is there a somewhere on the 17th floor?
Is there a door with an office and five people sitting there?
And it says we're in the standards and practices department.
Yes, I believe that exists.
Actually, I knew a girl who once worked in that department for, not for MSNBC, for ABC.
So I believe the department exists.
But that doesn't mean that she applied that when she was on air.
She lied about quite literally everything.
And the idea that Fox doesn't have that department and that Fox lies more, it's just absolutely, absolutely absurd.
But what happens?
What happens when they control so much of the apparatus?
You have their ridiculous politicians asking evil questions like we showed you up top.
They're judges who don't even understand the basic, the basic tenets of the law.
You have their talk show hosts who basically tell you they want to lie, or it's like that video we showed you from Jasmine Crockett the other day where the interviewer asked her about lying.
She basically went up on in one of the hearings and said that, what was it, that Lee Zeldin took money from Jeffrey Epstein and it turned out to be a different Jeffrey Epstein altogether.
And she said, yes, you can go ahead and lie because it's just a crazy time we live in.
All of that, what that all does is lead to a situation where we ultimately have bad people in power or people who don't even know the basic stuff that they are supposed to be doing while they are in power.
This is absolutely wild.
Sheriff's Jurisdiction Dispute00:05:27
This is Charlotte Sheriff Gary McFadden.
And he is Charlotte Sheriff Gary McFadden.
I've never heard of this guy and probably doesn't have a bright career in front of him.
But he's being asked to name the three branches of government.
This seems like pretty obvious stuff if you are the sheriff of a big city.
Take a look.
If I were to classify your position as the highest law enforcement officer in the county, would that be a fair description?
That's correct.
Okay.
And as such, you made reference earlier that you're a constitutional office.
My colleague made reference that there are constitutional divisions amongst responsibilities between us and you.
What branch of government do you operate under?
Mecklenburg County.
Sure. Constitution of the United States.
Correct.
That is what establishes the branches of government.
I'm asking which branch you fall under.
Meckenburgh County.
I'm a duly sworn Mecklenburg County Sheriff.
We answer to the people of Mecklenburg County.
Move on and say there are three branches of government, legislative, executive, judicial.
Of those three, which do you believe you fall under?
I believe I fall under the last one.
Would you say it to me?
Judicial.
Okay.
You are incorrect, sir.
You fall under the executive.
I don't even know what to say.
I don't know what to say.
Do you see why this is all so dangerous, what is in our system right now?
I know nothing about that guy.
I'm not going to attack him personally, and maybe he's done a fine job as sheriff.
But do you think that that's acceptable?
He doesn't know the branches of government.
Then when the guy lays out what the three branches of government, he thinks he's in the judicial branch.
That's the judges.
You're a police officer.
Do you see how dangerous all of this is?
What DEI has done?
What the destruction of public education has done and everything else?
It has led to a deeply, deeply dangerous, like he tried.
What branch of government are you in?
The Constitution.
Which of these, I'll lay them out, which of these three?
You got a 33% chance to get it right, and you got it wrong.
This is bad.
But I want to show you another example of this because it's happening all over the place.
And I would connect this also to sort of the radicalism that we've shown you over the last few weeks.
There's quite literally hundreds of thousands, if not millions of videos all over, mostly on TikTok, of nurses and other health practitioners saying they won't help ICE agents or they won't help MAGA people or they won't help Zionists or anything else.
And what happens to a system over time when everyone, it doesn't matter what the politicians think in some sense, but when the regular citizens decide to take politics and lives into their hands, when they don't have the basic understanding of the laws that they are sworn to protect and everything else.
So this one's wild.
This is a lawyer for a squatter who is living in a $2 million Bethesda, Maryland mansion.
Okay, let me repeat that.
He is the lawyer for the squatter.
The squatter is the guy who took this mansion and is not paying for it.
He is asked, the lawyer is asked in a television interview, how his client got into the home.
Enjoy.
He spoke with Alex Webster about his client.
Look, there's a question.
It's really the number one question on everybody's mind.
How would your client, Ms. Damika Good, get inside a $2.3 million property?
Cut?
I don't know if I can answer that.
Allegedly.
Can I cut?
We're rolling.
We're, yeah, I mean, we're rolling, my friend.
Batman is a lawyer.
Well, I'm told that man is a lawyer.
Cut.
Try doing that in court, buddy.
Why is that lady in that person's house and not leaving?
Cut?
I do declare this is an unjust jury.
What?
Complete.
And then even when he says allegedly, allegedly, he's like, I got to come up with a legal word, legal word, legal word.
Allegedly?
Here's part two.
All right, can you re-ask the question?
Sure, absolutely.
So the number one question on everybody's mind is how your client, Miss Damika Goode, got into a $2.3 million property.
Well, Ms. Good did her research.
She found out that a certain property was under, was under the control of a certain group and that there was a title issue.
Due to the title issue, she was able to assume the property under squatter's rights.
So in Maryland, there isn't a particular squatter right.
Am I missing something?
Well, there's not a particular squatter's right, but it's known as squatter rights.
Squatter Rights Debate00:03:10
I'm getting too old for this shit.
I really am.
Like, this is the type of cliff that could just, I could just take the mic off.
I did everything I could do.
You know what I mean?
I'm gone.
I'm leaving.
That's it.
Tamika, Tamika, my general sense, you're probably not a great person.
Like, you're just running around trying to steal people's houses and get squatters' rights in a place that doesn't have squatters' rights.
And the very notion of squatter rights is completely ridiculous.
But Tamika, I will offer you a little bit of advice.
Get a new lawyer, lady.
This is not your guy, okay?
I mean, just profoundly absurd.
So again, what I'm showing you on multiple levels now is there's just so much wackiness, brokenness in the system.
And it is not just in our country, right?
So we showed you that Japan is trying to clean up some of that.
And now let's jump to a horrific story that happened yesterday out of Canada, but it's definitely connected to all of the stuff that we talk about constantly here.
I'll read you the headline from NPR.
Shootings at school and home in British Columbia, Canada leave 10 dead.
Now here's a bit more and you'll see the connection.
breaking 10 dead, 25 injured after a woman, quote, woman wearing a dress opens fire on a Canadian school and this from AF Post.
17-year-old transsexual Jesse Strang has been identified as the Tumblr Ridge Secondary School shooter.
So there you see what appears to be, well, he is a biological male.
And that appears on the picture with the rifle to be a biological male who then was going through transition or whatever it is.
And God knows what mind-bending medications that person had been put on and everything else.
And then now 10 people are killed at a school in Canada where they don't have an awful lot of guns, by the way, and 25 injured.
And then to show you, again, I'm just showing you how a system is degraded over time.
Here is Tumblr, a Tumblr Ridge officer calling the suspect a gun person because they don't want to misgender them.
That includes the deceased gun person.
Okay.
And then separately, do you know the gun person's relation?
Let's pretend you're sympathetic to this trans thing.
All right, like you're really sympathetic to this issue.
And by the way, I can be sympathetic to a child who is being manipulated by adults and it's going through all sorts of stuff or someone that really has whatever their issues are, particularly if it's a child.
Of course, you could be sympathetic to that.
Why does that officer feel the need to be sympathetic to somebody to try to honor someone's gender who just murdered 10 people and injured 25 others?
But again, what we're illustrating here is that it's all over the system.
So let's flash back to former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau having a little struggle session of his own.
Maternal love is the love that's going to change the future of mankind.
So we'd like you to look.
We like to say people kind, not necessarily mankind.
It's more inclusive.
Mark Zuckerberg's Miami Move00:06:06
There we go.
Exactly.
Yes, thank you.
We can all learn from each other.
No, we can't.
We didn't learn anything there.
And yes, I get it.
You threw some fish to a bunch of seals and they clapped and everyone clapped and it's great.
Again, in a normal world where people could say what basic biological reality are, where people could defend the founding documents and have some sense of law and order, we could deal with this extrapolous stuff.
Okay, you want to say people kind instead of mankind?
And we could do some version of that.
It would just be like, oh, those people are just nutty.
But what they have done is imported so much of this, they have basically overwhelmed the system across the board.
I think I've shown you now several layers of this.
And what it does is it breaks down a system.
And in this case, the system is the country.
So what is happening?
Well, in California, the exodus continues.
And what will be Cali's loss ultimately will be Florida's gain.
Listen to this from Executive Summary Economics on X, Breaking Mark Zuckerberg is buying a waterfront mansion in Miami and a bit more on it.
Zuck will be buying a newly completed waterfront mansion in the elite Indian Creek neighborhood, which is home to other high-profile celebrities like Jeff Bezos, Tom Brady, Jared Kushner, Ivanka Trump.
Local real estate agents estimate the property is worth about $150 to $200 million.
It's basically Indian Creek Island.
It's basically the most expensive real estate in the entire world.
It is an island off of Miami.
It's technically in Miami.
They basically have their own security, like in the water around it.
Like you cannot get on that island if you are not invited.
Now, you might be going, Dave, how do you view this as a win for Florida?
You're getting Zuckerberg, and maybe that means he's going to vote the wrong way or pump money.
And that's all legit.
I think I've made it very clear over the years as Zuckerberg has, you know, been red-pilled a little bit and, you know, clearly taken testosterone or God knows what he's doing.
Does he seem more sane than he did years ago?
Yeah, he does.
Do I trust him at all?
No.
Maybe now he's in Miami, we can break bread and talk it out.
Do it on camera or off camera, doesn't matter.
So I'm not sold on that.
But the point is that Zuckerberg controls massive amounts of wealth.
Ali needs that wealth and now they are losing it.
So whether he votes the right way or does some bad things, that remains to be seen.
We will see about that.
But what I do know is a whole bunch of these billionaires are coming here.
That is more money into the Florida system that already is operating quite back, quite well.
Lit liquidity on X, an economics commentator wrote, that California billionaire tax idea backfired in the most spectacular fashion.
And now listen to this, Chamath Palapatiya from the All-In Podcast.
We read some stuff from him fairly often on the show.
With Zuck's move to Florida, California's total taxable wealth from billionaires has plummeted to well under $1 trillion from over $2 trillion just a few weeks ago.
The loss of this tax revenue was totally avoidable, but it is now forever, all because Gavin Newsom stood motionless as this stupidly written bill from a fringe union and handful of socialist academics with an axe to grind meandered his way into, meandered its way into the public conversation without any action from him and freaked everyone out.
These were all people that were paying 13 plus percent in state income tax every year with no complaints until a few weeks ago.
And now for the rest of time, the lost tax revenues from these folks will have to be paid for by the middle class because they are the only group left in California large enough that you can tax to fill the hole.
He's forsaken to the middle class instead of managing the budget, managing the deficit, eliminating even a portion of California's gargantuan waste and abuse.
He could have done any of these things at any point in the last seven plus years, but he was silent.
And now California's budget will implode and he wants to run for president insane.
Chamath, by the way, was a Democrat until a couple years ago.
All right.
The amount of people that are leaving, that was just baked in money that Newsom could do anything with.
These were people who were still post-COVID and all of the crime and drugs and everything else.
They were still putting up with all of the bullshit in California because of its natural beauty and because, you know, you live somewhere, you don't want to leave necessarily.
But it is interesting because it's not just Zuckerberg.
We mentioned Thiel left.
I think David Sachs is getting out.
Sergey Brin, him and Zuckerberg's homes combined are $250 million.
Larry Ellison just moved down here, basically same area.
So thank God.
Thank God for the founders of the United States.
And by the way, I should mention next week for President's Week, every day, every show that we are doing is about a different president.
We did this years ago.
People really loved it.
And so we're doing it.
We have Glenn Beck and Michael Knowles and a whole bunch of other people that are joining us to do a little breakdown of five of our presidents.
We thought that would be nice to do for President's Week.
But thank God for the founders who figured out what federalism is.
So there is some liquidity in the system.
So my God, that place, it's taxing us to the nth degree.
It's regulating us to oblivion.
It's not safe, blah, blah, blah.
We're going to go somewhere else.
Now, the challenge will be, once you are here, are you going to do what most of us new Floridians have done and vote the right way and stand up and understand why you came here?
I hope you damn well do, Zuckerberg.
And I'll call it out if I see you not doing that.
But it didn't happen by mistake.
It did not happen by mistake.
This is DeSantis when he was running for president talking about how many people, remember, height of COVID, how many people were moving to Florida and why.
Well, it turns out most of these folks were so fed up with what was going on out there that they pick up their lives, their businesses, their families, and they move across the entire continental United States.
You did that.
There you go.
You did that too.
You did that too.
From California?
Okay.
Yeah.
And so you're seeing that.
So that you did, you moved to?
Ron DeSantis and Jon Stewart's Reaction00:05:56
Okay.
From California?
Michigan?
Where?
New York?
Rhode Island?
New Hampshire?
Where?
Nevada.
California?
Where in California?
Oh, San Francisco.
You?
Where?
South Africa.
You know, it's a good point.
We were the focus of freedom, not just for the United States, for all over the world during COVID.
We had people coming here.
Probably could have done that for the entire press conference.
And you, where do you come from?
And you, where did you come from?
And me.
And I'm telling you, I've told you this a million times.
I picked two companies.
I took two companies out.
I took all my employees.
I didn't know if anyone was going to come with me.
We made a decision.
We were going to leave.
Everyone came with me.
And all of those people, some of whom are in this room right now, are good citizens, like not rapists.
Yeah, not rapists.
Like these are good citizens.
They pay taxes.
They're doing things.
They brought economic value and they go to restaurants and they don't burn down buildings or none of those things as far as I know, right?
Like, so that's what happens over time.
The rich will get richer.
And I don't mean that in the monetary sense, but the places where it works will just get better and the places where it doesn't work will just get worse.
So now I want to really tie all of this together.
Man, we have tied this thing.
This is a tight knot today, Phoenix.
You get guacamole today.
Because yesterday, I think this was two days ago on the Daily Show, which Jon Stewart hosts once a week for about 20 million bucks a year.
Jon Stewart, a guy who, as I've said many times, he should have been right where Bill Maher is and been one of the last liberals standing up for classical liberalism and not gone full woke, but he went the entire way.
Anyway, he had Kentucky Governor Andy Bashir on, who's making the rounds.
We showed you a video of him yesterday on The View explaining that it's his religious belief that led him to transing young kids.
I mean, it's so bananas.
But if you just want to see just like, just, you could, you really could puke in a bucket.
You really could puke in a bucket.
I'm not going to bust out the Ohio Omar puke bucket, but you really could watching this.
Jon Stewart asks the Democrat governor of Kentucky, who's the worst governor.
Watch this.
Who's the one where like you guys are at the governor's conference and like the elevator opens and he's about to walk in and you just go, or she, and you just go, oh, Ron DeSantis.
So smooth, so smooth.
What is Stewart's?
So smooth.
Oh my God, he said it.
Ron DeSantis, he said it, everybody.
He's so smooth, this guy.
What are you talking about, dude?
Let me explain something to you, Jon Stewart, who I interned for in 1999.
Like, life is weird.
Life finds a way, as Jeff Goldblum told us.
Why don't you like Ron DeSantis?
Let me calm down for a second.
I take a lot of this stuff personally.
Let me read some numbers to you about Ron DeSantis' Florida.
Florida ranks number one in the U.S. for its economy, according to 2025 U.S. News and World Report.
Florida has gained 1.9 million new residents since 2020.
Florida ranks number one for higher education from U.S. News and World Report.
Florida is also number one in tourism.
So what is going on there?
You think you're a real badass, Andy Bashir.
I don't like Ron DeSantis, who has no income tax in his state and who's trying to get rid of property tax and where we're safe and it's clean.
And if someone breaks into your house, you are welcome to shoot them.
And where if a Hamas gang takes over the roads, we get rid of them in seven minutes.
But you, oh, you're such a tough guy.
You can sit in New York City with a bunch of moron socialists.
Like, oh my God, he said Ron DeSantis.
And then Jon Stewart's reaction.
That's the craziest.
Jon Stewart, I just want to be clear.
By the way, your real name is John Leibowitz.
You're a big Jew.
When the Islamists take over New York City, I assume you probably live in the suburbs somewhere.
But when the Islamists take over New York City, yes, they're going to behead you at the end because you're a useful tool for them, but do not move to Florida.
You are not welcome in Florida.
I think I can speak for all Floridians when I say that.
You are not welcome.
Like, what a clown.
Like, what an utter useless clown you have.
Oh, my God.
He said Ron DeSantis.
Tell me what Ron DeSantis has done wrong.
And I'm not even, I'm not being a Ron DeSantis stand right now.
I'm just telling you, there's places where it works and you guys hate that.
It's absolutely disgusting.
So one more from the guy that Jon Stewart is so, he's so edgy.
He just hates this shit.
And so we will continue to recognize that in the state of Florida, parents have a fundamental role in the education, healthcare, and well-being of their children.
We will not move from that.
I don't care what corporate media outlets say.
I don't care what Hollywood says.
I don't care what big corporations say.
Here I stand.
I'm not backing down.
Oh, my God, Ron DeSantis.
Like, fuck off, Stewart.
Like, what a disappointment you have become.
You have become everything that I think you would have hated 20 plus years ago.
Really, just so embarrassing.
So stay out.
Stay out.
You know what?
We got 1.9 million.
And we know that huge numbers, huge percentages of those people are voting the right way.
And I can tell you, Phil, where I live, where people are moving in every day from all of these places, they are becoming more crazy, right-wing, far-right, far, far-white ring.
They're crazier than even me and vote in the right way.
