Dave Rubin details a $200 theft from his Miami home before asserting U.S. total control of Iranian airspace and the decimation of its military, predicting a near-term oil deal under Donald Trump's consistent anti-nuclear stance. He criticizes Democrats for defunding DHS, causing TSA chaos, and cites the murder of Sheridan Gorman as proof of Biden-era immigration failures, while condemning figures like Tim Wu Obama and Larry Krasner. Ultimately, Rubin rejects "forever war" narratives, arguing regime change will occur via popular uprising rather than direct intervention, challenging mainstream media coverage of these geopolitical shifts. [Automatically generated summary]
If you know this guy, if you can find this guy, you're somewhere in South Miami area and you can find this guy, $5,000 if it leads to his arrest.
Let's do it.
Okay, let's talk about the war.
It does seem like it's wrapping up.
You know, let's start with a level set.
How about that to start?
One of the things that Donald Trump ran on for the last 10 years was no more forever wars.
And the key word there is forever.
He never said no wars.
He never said Iran could get a bomb.
He never said we're never going to do anything in the face of bad guys or anything like that.
There's a series of people that seem to be very confused about that.
But Donald Trump, as you know, has been wildly consistent about his position on Iran and their ability to get a nuclear weapon and the regime and everything else for 40 plus years.
We showed you that video a couple times from him.
What's that?
1984, something like that.
Maybe even before that, could be 82.
So we are now 20 plus days into this war.
Militarily, it has been an extraordinary success.
We have complete control of the country.
They have no Navy.
They have no Air Force.
We have all of their airspace.
They're indiscriminately firing rockets, but basically have no command and control anymore.
You know all of this stuff.
There's some tension around the Strait of Hormuz, which obviously will be resolved.
Gas prices did go up a little bit, about 40 cents.
They are going to come back down.
And now Donald Trump already, counter to the, this is World War III, thermonuclear war, forever war.
It's like, have a little faith in Trump.
Have a little imagination that America can do good things and good things might happen.
And I'm telling you, mark my words, we're going to have new peace deals in the Middle East and a whole bunch more after this.
But here's Donald Trump saying we are going to make a deal.
Number two, there's going to be some sort of deal where we will either have access to or American companies will be working with Iranian oil companies, with some sort of new regime.
There is some question as to who it is we are talking to right now because the military leadership, the political leadership has largely been decimated.
And by the way, that is still happening right now.
So while there are going to be some talks, it sounds like they're going to be in Pakistan of all places in the next couple of days.
The question is who really is in charge?
Is anyone really in charge?
Will they have the ability to truly negotiate as someone that holds some sort of authority with the people?
There's always what I keep saying from the beginning of this thing, there's still part two of this story, which is whoever is going to be in charge now, are they going to be different than the Molas?
Are the Persian people going to get their country back?
But that's the secondary part of this.
The military part that we are concluding now, I would say we probably got about two weeks on it, something like that.
This is part one of the movie.
We'll get to part two of the movie.
But all right, what is he saying?
They already came to us and said that there's going to be some deal around the oil.
Kind of sounds like Venezuela, doesn't it?
There's going to be some deal around some of their stuff, the 80% of their oil that gets exported to China.
Well, now America will have something to do with it.
So this is just, again, it's just for all the people, particularly on the right, that thought Trump was going to get us into some never-ending war and troops on the ground and occupation and regime change in the way that we think of regime change, say like when we deposed Saddam and Iraq, it was just all, it was always complete nonsense.
And it was just to steal your attention and confuse you and everything else.
Here's Trump also saying that Iran, again, the question is who, we will find out more about who he's talking to, but they now will agree to not have nuclear weapons.
If we can end this without more lives being down, without knocking out $10 billion electric plants that are brand new and the apple of their eye, I'd like to be able to do that, you know?
But they can't have certain things.
I mean, you know the things.
I don't have to go over the list.
But again, it starts with no nuclear weapons.
And they've agreed to that.
There won't be any nuclear weapons.
They're not going to have enrichment, any of those things.
But look, I hate to say that we're in a very good bargaining position.
I hate to say it, but they are in a good bargaining position.
They are defenseless.
They're not going to have nukes.
We knocked out the entire army and everything else.
And now they're going to come back and talk to us.
I won't keep saying it, but it is worth repeating one more time.
Who they are and will they have authority over the country?
We don't know.
And by the way, Donald Trump will not always be president.
So when Donald Trump is gone or if the Republicans lose the midterms and Donald Trump is totally hung up in impeachment and God knows what the Democrats would do, would whoever, any bad actors in Iran, completely go against their word and try to start all these programs again?
Well, that's certainly possible.
And that's another reason why we need the midterms to go well.
And it's also why we had to go in with such overwhelming force because Donald Trump, obviously, he said it right there, I don't trust these guys.
So you go in and you make sure you demolish so much of the infrastructure.
But what did he say?
He didn't want to go in and destroy the power plants, right?
He issued a statement, was it two days ago, basically saying, if you guys don't stop, if you don't ease up on the Strait of Hormuz, if you don't ease up on these rockets and everything else, we will destroy your power plants.
He's not trying to punish the Iranian people.
This has never been about that.
Here's Bill O'Reilly with a bit more.
It does, the way he frames this sounds like he has a little bit of insider knowledge, just a bit more on how he thinks the Iran war will end.
Trump has no intention to stop on any of this if we don't get what we want, which Trump laid out very quickly.
You're not going to have a nuke program.
We're going to end your ballistic missile program.
You're going to stop supporting terror, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
That's one thing.
As for like whether UN inspectors are going to go in there and check these things, I don't even think that matters.
I don't think anyone believes anything out of the UN.
It's a completely farcical and ridiculous if you're paying attention to the DC comic book universe.
It's basically the Legion of Doom.
So I don't think any good is coming out of the UN, but that's why we had to degrade everything that they had to the point that in essence, it won't matter for a decade, right?
Because the programs will be so eradicated.
And so many of the nuclear scientists are now dead and the military leadership is dead and everything else.
In return, there'll be more favorable economic treatment for Iran on a rebuild basis.
Trump knows he's not going to get regime change.
So that's, you know, he can saber rattle on it, but that's not going to happen unless the Persian people rise up.
So likely, and I think within the space of a couple of weeks, this thing will cease and some kind of an arrangement will be made so that the Mullahs can tell their people they didn't lose and Trump can tell his people they want.
Yeah, that all basically seems right to me with one caveat, which I'll get to in a second.
But he's saying that we're going to get favorable economic treatment.
Well, already, Trump already said they've offered us some, there's something related to the oil.
And think about how important it is that now not only do we have access to Venezuela's oil, but now we are going to have some sort of access to or control of Iran's oil.
And 80% of the oil that China gets, 80% that Iran exports, goes to China.
So now we have some leverage over China.
And much of what's going on in the world has to do with the rise of China and what they've wanted as the descent of America.
And Trump is reordering that, right?
He's pushing us up, thus pushing China down.
Now, as far as the regime change part of that, this is the interesting part because although O'Reilly says, yeah, the Persian people will still have to rise up.
Again, we don't really know who we're negotiating with, or we don't know as civilians.
We don't know yet.
Trump and the team, they're meeting with somebody.
They know who they are.
But will this be that at the end, there's just going to be a new set of mullahs who are going to be as awful as the Ayatollah and all the previous guys after killing 40,000 of their own people, leading their country to the brink of destruction because of this war and everything else?
I don't think so.
So I don't think it's going to be regime change and like us installing a puppet or something, but there is going to be very fundamentally different leadership.
There simply has to be.
The Persian people will not stand for it.
They've already put their lives on the line and now the regime is so much more weakened that we'll see where that shakes out.
I think that's fair to say.
Here's Trump talking about how Hegseth and General Dan Kane were kind of pissed that the war is about to wrap up.
I mean, again, it's just a perfect example of why I keep saying we're never going to have a more honest president.
And he's giving you a little bit of the insider glean.
Like, you could see them sitting in a meeting and Trump being like, you know what, we've talked to them.
We're going to get some of the oil.
We're going to wrap this thing up.
We accomplished most of the goals.
You could see Hegseth sitting in there and going, but we can keep going.
There's more to do.
We're winning.
Like, you could see that.
And then Trump gives you a little bit of that publicly, a little bit.
And he admires them.
We have, it's why, you know, it felt kind of silly.
I wonder the day that they changed the name from Department of Defense to Department of War.
I wonder what I said exactly.
I probably said it sounds a little silly, but I don't mind it.
That would be my guess.
Maybe someone can find that.
But it's like maybe there was a real reason, a real fundamental reason to change the name of the Department of Defense to Department of War.
We're not just going to sit back and wait anymore.
We are going to lead.
And when we have a Department of War that is not looking for war, but will perform war when necessary, then we are going to do it at the maximum level of competency.
And that is exactly what we have done here.
Here was just kind of a funny moment and watch some of the facial expressions and hand motions.
President has made it clear that you will not have a nuclear weapon.
The War Department agrees.
Our job is to ensure that.
And so we're keeping our hand on that throttle as long as as hard as is necessary to ensure the interests of the United States of America are achieved on that battlefield.
They're going to keep their hand on that throttle and it's hard and they're going to keep.
And Trump's kind of, what are we doing now?
Yeah, we have good people in charge.
And again, from day one when this thing broke out, I think they deserve our trust and credit until it goes horrifically awry.
And it has not gone horrifically awry yet, at least.
We'll have a bit more on the negotiations and who's going to be handling them on our side.
Again, we don't know exactly who it'll be on the other side.
It's got to be the 58th guy down the docket of who's in charge over Iran in just a second.
But first, Mars Men.
At some point, things can start feeling a little bit off.
Your energy isn't the same.
Workouts feel harder and it's tougher to stay focused.
One day you feel sharp.
The next day you're dragging.
That's where Mars Men comes in.
It's designed to help your body use testosterone it already makes because some of it can get locked up and not fully used.
With regular use, some men report more steady, natural energy and a higher drive throughout the day.
It's made with natural ingredients, no needles, and it's made in the USA with third-party testing.

So you guys know I'm always more interested in the narrative around things than just the specifics.
Oh my God, X amount of people voted for this and the Democrats voted this and they fought.
I'm not that interested in that.
I'm interested in narrative.
And one of the pieces of the narrative that's been so interesting here is that while the truth of what has been happening has been a rather extraordinary military win that I keep saying will be studied for decades, if you're watching lefty media and a certain portion of sort of the brain rot right media, they're telling you that we are not winning, that our bases are all being destroyed, that this is a never-ending war in World War III and all of those things.
And it's simply not true.
And here is Trump talking about how not only have we basically we've won already, like he knows we've won already, but that it's the fake news that really wants to keep this ridiculous story going.
The only one that likes to keep it going is the fake news.
I mean, the New York Times, you read the New York Times, it's like we're not winning a war where they have no Navy and they have no Air Force and they have no nothing.
And we literally have planes flying over Tehran and other parts of their country.
And the truth is they know they can't do a thing about it, which is why when Trump put on Truth Social, which we read to you yesterday, if you guys don't start negotiating and wrap this thing up with us right now, we're going to blow up your power plants.
And then what happened?
Well, then they show up and say we are ready to negotiate, right?
And also it goes to the point that Donald Trump is not trying to hurt the Persian people.
He is not trying to hurt the people of Iran.
He's trying to weaken the regime and stop its military proxies that are all over the region.
Here's a bit more on the potential upcoming talks.
This is from the Economic Times.
Iranian representatives on Wednesday told the Trump administration that they do not want to re-enter negotiations with U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and U.S. President Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner and would prefer to engage with U.S. President JD Vance, CNN reported citing sources.
The report stated that Iran believes discussions involving Witkoff and Kushner wouldn't be productive given the deficit of trust following the breakdown of negotiations prior to Israel and the U.S. launching military action.
So there's something sort of interesting happening there that they'd prefer to talk to JD.
They were talking to Kushner and Witkoff about the nuclear enrichment right before the war kicked off.
They'd prefer to talk to JD.
Now, they're in no position.
They have no leverage whatsoever.
So Trump is going to send whoever he wants.
And, well, here's Trump on the laundry list of people that he has that are involved in this.
Yeah, so I don't even think it matters in some sense who exactly is leading it or who is there or anything else.
Trump will be ultimately the decider.
He doesn't have to show up in Pakistan to meet with the 86th guy down the list of whoever's in charge of Iran right now.
But whether it's JD or it's Witkoff or Kushner or some combination thereof, or certainly Rubio, you're going to have a competent person doing this.
You know, there's a bunch of people that have been saying, well, you know, maybe JD, because he seems to be less hawkish, let's say, on these military adventures, that he wouldn't be a good negotiator.
But JD has been pretty clear on the threat that Iran has posed to the world, particularly to our ally, Israel.
And every country has to decide what's in their best interests.
And countries have to decide who their friends are and who their allies are and how you can help and how you match up all you match up priorities and things that you want to accomplish, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
Now, I thought this was interesting because you're seeing so many people now basically say, well, Iran was never a threat.
They're never going to be a threat.
It's not a problem.
Trump did this because he just wants war and blah blah blah.
This is an interesting compilation of mainstream media, some Biden people, some FBI people, and some CIA people reminding us of that threat over the years.
Iran, the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism, has directly or by hiring criminals mounted assassination attempts against dissidents and high-ranking current and former U.S. officials.
You know, isn't it interesting that they never show videos like that on CNN?
Like, that's Mazemore, who I love crediting.
He's a great follow on X, who creates a lot of the videos that we show you here.
And it's like, that just gives a little context.
I'm not saying you have to believe all those people.
Like, there's Jen Saki.
I think she's horrible.
Boyd Austin was an embarrassingly bad Secretary of Defense.
Like, I'm not telling you those are great people or trustworthy people, but those are the same people who will tell you that right now that Iran is not a threat at all.
And for years, they were telling us we're a huge threat.
So it goes to show you that, I don't know, perhaps we should be a little skeptical when people make all of their decisions around usually what the reverse of what Donald Trump is saying.
Speaking of such a person, here's Chuck Schumer.
He showed up on that show with Joe and the wife.
They hate each other, but they do a show together.
And here they are.
And Chuck refuses to say whether it's good or bad that Iran's military has been degraded.
So you have a military side, but I can show you my chart, but I think I threw it away.
You have the military side, you have the political side.
I'm simply asking on the military side: is it good, regardless of whether we agree with going in or not, is it good that Iran's military infrastructure has been seriously?
But I agree with Chuck Scarborough, Chuck Scarborough.
I always call him Chuck Scarborough.
That's the newsman from NBC New York in the 80s with Joe Scarborough.
Get me an image of Chuck Scarborough.
Would you find me an image of Chuck Scarborough?
He was a much better broadcaster than Joe Scarborough.
But he actually asked the right question because he just reiterated exactly what I've been saying here.
There's a military portion of this, and then there's a political portion of it.
And what he's saying is you don't have to agree with any of this, but can you at least acknowledge that the military part has been a success?
They don't have control of their airspace.
The Navy's gone.
Like, obviously, the answer to that is yes.
Why can't you say that, Chuck?
You could say, you know, I wish Donald Trump would have had more Democrats involved or we should have gone to the UN or just like the laundry list of nonsensical things that you mumble out about everything that you guys do.
But you could still say that it has been a military success.
You don't have to say, well, in three months, we don't know what will happen.
That is actually true.
And we can hope that the Persian people will take their country back.
And we don't know if that's going to happen.
But because you have a horrific, brain-damaging case of Trump derangement syndrome, you can't even say things that are very obvious.
Do we have an image of Chuck Scarborough?
There's good old Chuck Scarborough from NBC, nightly.
He was the NBC local affiliate in New York.
He was a great broadcaster back in the day.
Can we get that video at the end?
You know, the thing with the woman yelling at him.
We're going to end with a great cold close.
It's one of my favorite all-time.
You know what I'm talking about.
One of my favorite all-time.
I love news bloopers in general when you see the newscasters like Bray Character.
We got a great one at the end.
Let me show you this.
This is Val Jennings, Val Demings, sorry.
And she ran for Senate against Marco Rubio right here in Florida for Senate in 2022.
And thankfully, she lost by an awful lot.
She is asked here by Scott Jennings over on CNN if Iran is a bad guy.
And I do want to make a note before we play this clip.
As you know, I've been trying to limit the cursing, the F-bombs, and things.
And it's very mixed.
I see in the comments, it's very mixed.
Some people really like it when I drop it.
Other people are really appreciative of it.
Sometimes you have a kid in a room or anything.
I'm just trying, right?
The Democrats are cursing all the time.
I'm just trying to be a little bit better.
So I do want to add that I'm going, this is going to be the last time for now that we are going to play this Scott and the retards intro.
We are going to make a new intro for it, and I'm going to try not to say retards after I just said retards, but I'm going to try not to say retards anymore after I just said retards right now.
You understand?
You got it?
OK, go.
unidentified
And so the American people, nor the troops on the ground, have a clue what the president's mission is, what the way out is.
All right, first off, there are no troops on the ground.
We have bases in the area, but we haven't sent any troops into the ground of Iran.
We absolutely have not.
I would also say it's an absolute unimaginable tragedy that any soldiers have been lost, that they had to put their life on the line for this.
How many soldiers have been lost?
I think it's about a dozen, probably.
And it's terrible.
Every single one is terrible and a tragedy, obviously.
But Donald Trump is fighting this war so that there will be less terrorism exported throughout the Middle East and Latin America and North America and Europe and all over the world.
Their proxies, Iran using their oil money, which now apparently we're going to have some access to, they have been funding terror throughout the world.
So sometimes, and this is why I always say that libertarian argument of America only and we only care about our own borders and we're anti-war as if that's a real position.
Everyone would love to be anti-war.
I've often explained this using the Shire in Lord of the Rings.
They were very happy there with their little houses in the dirt and their hairy feet and the guy who was coming in and smoking weed and whatever or whatever, whatever he was smoking and it turned into a dragon.
Remember that was kind of cool when the smoke turned into a dragon.
But it wasn't going to last.
You were going to have to build a wall around that thing.
And then if I can combine this with Game of Thrones, when the White Walkers were going to try to come into the Shire, I'm combining stories here, but you got to take them out before they get there.
That's how it works.
You sometimes have to fight war to make sure that, okay, you got it.
So yes, Scott, it's like, lady, lady, would you just admit that?
But they simply cannot do anything.
But okay, let's put Iran down for now.
Let's get back to our shores because hopefully, fingers crossed, the Republicans may push something through that will get some funding to DHS so that our airport situation will get cleaned up because it is quite a fiasco.
Listen to this from NBC, Washington.
Senate Republicans are buzzing with optimism that they found a viable path to reopen the Department of Homeland Security for sources familiar with negotiations between the White House and Congress told NBC News.
Republicans believe the framework could gain the support of President Donald Trump and secure enough Democratic support to quickly fund the TSA and bring an end to long lines at airports.
The path involves funding all of DHS with the exception of immigration, enforcement, and deportation operations under ICE.
Once DHS is largely functioning again, Republicans would attempt to use the filibuster-proof reconciliation process to fund the rest of ICE and pass a limited portion of the Save America Act, an election bill that is Trump's top priority.
A White House official told NBC News that conversations are still ongoing, but that seems to be an acceptable solution.
Senate Majority Leader John Thun, South Dakota, also sounded upbeat about the proposal without making any guarantees.
I feel good about it, he told reporters Monday night as the Senate wrapped up business for the day, adding that there are some particulars to nail down.
But I think we're in a good spot.
So look, we will see.
This, as you know, this has been completely on the Democrats.
ICE is already funded.
They're trying to use every bit of leverage here to maybe get some movement on the SAVE Act.
We will see about that.
But this has been a democrat decision.
They defunded DHS so that they could extract concessions on ICE, even though ICE was funded in the Big Beautiful Bill through 2029.
So it's 100% on them, but they keep going on mainstream media and lying about it.
Here is Timu Obama 100% lying about the situation.
So the Republicans have shut down the Department of Homeland Security because they don't want to get ICE under control.
And as a result, TSA agents are being forced to work without pay.
Americans are being inconvenienced all across the country and chaos has been created in airports throughout America.
Why?
Because Republicans apparently want to continue to spend billions of dollars to unleash mass and untrained ICE agents to brutalize and kill the American people and violently target law-abiding immigrant families.
I have to say that Bernie Sanders a little more controlled than usual.
He's getting up there in age.
Maybe he's choking a little bit less on the socialist slam that he's always gurgling in his mouth.
But basically what he's saying there is they didn't accomplish anything because ICE is going to be funded either way.
Ted Cruz, I thought this was pretty good because, you know, one of the things that's happening, we played a clip yesterday of Louisiana senator and national treasurer John Kennedy talking about how he tried to bring a bill to the floor that would make sure that the Senate wouldn't be paid if they're going to stop other people who work for the government from being paid, that they wouldn't be paid.
Well, Senator Ted, that didn't get, it got stopped by the Democrats, of course.
Ted Cruz decided to actually just not be paid.
Look at this.
Due to the Democrats shutdown, I've asked the financial clerk of the Senate to hold my salary.
It's not right for members of Congress to be paid if working men and women of DHS aren't.
And you might say, look, that's a little bit of a gimmick or whatever.
They're holding the money.
He will get the money, obviously.
But, you know, the people who are being, who are working right now, they will get the back pay too.
So in some sense, it's a little bit of a gimmick, but I think it shows that he cares.
It shows that he's like there's something directionally right about it.
And now let's do the complete 180 version of it.
So you have Republican senators saying, we will not get paid, a couple of them.
We will not get paid if DHS isn't getting paid because of the Democrats.
And now we'll do the complete opposite version of that, which is this, this guy's a complete nutbag lunatic.
And go to the streets of Philadelphia and see what a great job he's doing.
This is Philly District Attorney Larry Krasner, and he's now threatening to arrest ICE agents who show up at the airport.
No, I don't take a phone call from the president saying let him go.
No, the president cannot pardon you.
I'll say it again.
The president cannot pardon you.
And yes, I will put you in handcuffs and I will put you in a courtroom and if necessary, I will put you in a jail cell if you decide to make the terrazzo floor of this airport anything like what you did in the streets of Minneapolis.
So much of Democrat policy is in fact based on flooding American communities with hostile foreigners, putting their interests above the interests of the American people, and weaponizing them politically for electoral gain.
It's absolutely grotesque, and yet we deal with it every single day.
What we are not going to do as Republicans is we're not going to allow Democrats to defund ICE.
We're going to make sure that our ICE agents and immigration enforcement is funded properly the way it should be so that we can continue deporting illegal aliens no matter what Democrats think about it.
I got to say, I think that guy's got a bright future.
He just got reelected just a couple weeks ago in Texas.
And like, it's just, he's just telling the truth.
Like, the Democrats care about illegals.
We would like to have a country of law and order.
It's not much more confusing than that.
And the problem is that when you let in all these people and you don't know what they're doing or what their intentions are, they do horrible things and then you blame us for it.
So let's connect this to the story that we covered yesterday.
There was a girl by the name, and I have to talk about her in past tense, unfortunately.
Her name was Sheridan Gorman.
She was an 18-year-old girl student at Loyola University in Chicago.
An illegal came into this country under Joe Biden, was arrested in 2023 for a crime and then let out of jail and he murdered her.
He murdered her.
This just happened in Chicago, Illinois.
Here is J.B. Pritzker, who is the governor of that state.
Those failures, of course, extend beyond the borders of Illinois.
That's their national failures, a failure to have comprehensive immigration reform, a failure of the president to follow his own edict to go after the worst of the worst.
First off, we don't need comprehensive immigration reform.
We needed a closed border, and it was your president slash an autopen that opened up the border.
That's on you, 100%.
That's you and your party that did that.
And then you're upset that Donald Trump's not going after the worst of the worst.
Well, when he's been doing it and sending ICE into these states, you call him the Gestapo and Nazis and everything else.
So this girl now being dead, who is one of your citizens, it's on your party.
I won't blame you personally, but you probably could actually, because you guys have tried to hamper Donald Trump every step of the way as he's tried to not only close the border, but then clean up the illegal immigration situation.
The mayor of Chicago, who you guys know, it's this Brandon Johnson guy who is not qualified to tie someone's shoes.
He is awful.
He is racist.
He is a buffoon.
And he should just never be seen in public anymore.
Could I continue?
Here he is saying he hasn't even spoke to the family of Sheridan Gorman yet.

You've probably seen the statement from Sheridan Gorman's family, which talked about addressing what we heard last week from Alder Haddon about rejecting the idea that she was in the wrong place at the wrong time and some disappointment over what they called failures of the system.
I'm wondering if you've had an opportunity or taken the opportunity to speak directly with the Gorman family and share a little bit of that conversation, if you have, or if not, what you would say to them.
Sometimes the buck does stop with someone, and I would say that the buck stops with you on this one, Brandon Johnson.
And the death of Sheridan Gorman is at your feet.
And you owe her family an apology.
You owe every citizen of Chicago an apology and everything else.
You would not cooperate with ICE.
There's a chance ICE could have got this guy.
You created Sanctuary City situation in Chicago so that a guy who's not only illegal, but then commits crimes has a rotating door policy and can get in and out of jail.
This is all on you, you awful, awful human being.
You know, I always say there's one sane Democrat.
Obviously, that's the guy who had brain damage who's healing.
That's John Fetterman.
And then you've got the media version of it, which is who's, of course, Bill Maher.
The other guy who's like sort of sane, but he's just not great.
He doesn't realize what time it is and he doesn't realize how radical his party has become.
But he himself, I think as a human being, is not an awful America hating lunatic, is the governor of Pennsylvania, Josh Shapiro, a man who quite literally was not chosen as VP because there are so many Jew-hating whack jobs in the Democrat Party right now, even though he obviously, obviously on every account would have been far better than Tim Walz.
Anyway, he went on a podcast and here he talks about, sort of admits, kind of like Bernie just admits, well, we didn't do anything with this thing.
Here's Josh Shapiro admitting that the Democrats have failed to deliver anything for anyone.
But that aside, like, dude, Josh, Josh, respectfully, because I don't think you're awful.
I think you're slightly misguided.
And maybe you think that there's governments a little better than I do or something.
You should just be a moderate Republican at this point.
It would be a great, you know what?
I'm going to predict it, actually.
That may be a little bold.
I'm going to say that maybe he would drop the Democrat farce by the time he wants to run for president.
He comes in as like a VP candidate for the Republicans.
That might be a bit much.
But I think he will just increasingly, as a person who's somewhat thoughtful and decent, even if he's wrong about policies, he will just be increasingly isolated from his own party, which is exactly what has happened to John Federman.
All of that stuff aside, can we put up the image again?
So Chuck and Sue Simmons used to do, I think it was the six, yeah, it was the six o'clock show on NBC in the 80s.
And it was a huge, huge news program leading into Tom Broca 630.
And they were, but it was a local NBC affiliate.
And they worked together for years and years and years.
And I love these videos where these people who are there so professional on air, but then you occasionally see what happens off air, will throw to this.
And that'll be the close, cold close for today.
And post-game show 30 seconds, RubenReport.locals.com.

At 11Pay, more at the grocery but getting less.
We'll tell you how to get the most.
The f are you doing?
We need to acknowledge an unfortunate mistake that I made and one of the teases we bring to you before this program.
While we were live, just after 10 o'clock, I said a word that many people find offensive.
I'm truly sorry.
It was a mistake on my part, and I sincerely apologize.
