So down at Verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts.
What I told people I was making a podcast about Benghazi, nine times out of ten, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked, why?
Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
From Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries, this is Fiasco, Benghazi.
What difference at this point does it make?
Listen to Fiasco, Benghazi, on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
All right.
Thank you, Scott Shannon, and thanks to all of you for being with us.
Here's our toll-free telephone number.
You want to be a part of the program?
It's 800-941 Sean.
If you'd like to join us, we've got a lot of news today.
Democrats fuming.
You know who the Linda, guess who they're fuming at?
Who?
Take a guess.
You're smart.
You have multiple advanced degrees.
You should be able to figure this out.
Who are Democrats mad at right now?
You?
Well, that's a good point.
I mean, I think it's a good guess.
You talk about the hate list, which I'm not going to be already.
No, we'll get to it later.
We'll get to it later.
But however, they're furious at Biden because he won't go away.
He just won't go away.
He's the rash that just won't leave.
He won't leave.
He's like a hemorrhoid for crying out loud.
He is a hemorrhoid.
Oh, geez.
Anyway, they're blasting him and this interview on The View.
We'll go over it later with our friend Miranda Devine and complaining that this guy is a drag on the party as they seek to rebuild their following.
And then we'll play.
He uses the old racist, sexist, you know, closing argument lines to explain away Kamala Harris's loss.
Who made racist or sexist statements about Kamala?
Because I don't know.
I don't remember that being a focus of any prominent conservative voice that I know of.
I just don't remember it.
You know, but the Democrats, they're pissed.
They're complaining.
The president's a drag on the party.
Elections are about the future.
Every time Joe Biden emerges, we fight an old war, said Anthony Coley.
I don't know who he is, Democratic strategist who worked for the Biden administration.
Every interview he does provides a contrast to Trump.
Yeah, it's one between life and death.
Somebody that's alive full of vigor and energy versus somebody that has no energy.
I mean, say what you will about Bernie Sanders' view.
And I love Bernie defending his private jet use to Brett Baer this week.
But, you know, Bernie's got his faculties together.
He still has the same energy he had from 10 years ago when he was running for president.
Got to give that to the guy.
He's not a cognitive mess.
Nobody's ever claimed that he is.
He's older, but he's sharp as attack.
He's just nuts, but that's separate and apart from the issue.
Quote, there is a way for Biden to build his post-presidency.
This isn't it.
Steve Schell, longtime Biden ally, ran a pro-Biden super PAC.
And by the end of his life, we were reminded of the decent and humble nature of the man that, thanks to his acts, not his words.
He was a disaster.
He left the president an unmitigated disaster.
And now Donald Trump will spend most of his presidency first year cleaning up the Adam shift show that he left him.
It was a disaster.
Anyway, look at the illegal immigration front.
By the way, Trump DOJ has now prosecuted 1,300 Biden illegals unvetted.
In just the first week of May, the DOJ announcing U.S. attorneys, several border states, charging 1,300 people with immigration-related crimes.
How many, this is what infuriates me.
He's just such a nice, humble man, Joe.
Never once could this nice, humble man pick up a phone and call a family whose loved one was murdered by his unvetted illegals.
And then, of course, we have known terrorists and murderers and rapists and other violent criminals.
Never called the victims of any of these crimes, any of these rapes, any of these murders.
And we have cartel members and the gang members.
And look at Democrats fighting for the rights of gang members in this country, admittedly illegally, even accused of domestic violence, trying to get them back in the country.
That's their cause celeb.
It's pretty incredible.
Anyway, wild brawls.
You want to talk about radicalism?
I'm going to focus a lot on this on TV tonight.
I mean, the rage, raging left wing in this country that has been taken over by the most radical people.
I mean, you can see this now on college campuses.
That has now re-emerged as an issue.
Anti-Israel agitators brawling with cops at Brooklyn College late yesterday after they set up a tent encampment and disrupted final exams.
One officer being forced to fire a taser.
By the way, a taser is the worst thing in the world.
Taser means you're at close quarters.
Taser means you're too close.
If you're going to hit somebody with a taser, you're too close to them.
And that's why I like Berner and the technology.
It fires projectiles.
It can incapacitate any perpetrator.
You know, that's why all these over 500 government agencies, police departments, private security firms, I'm telling you, just better technology.
And if you haven't seen it, go to byrna.com.
And I'm plugging it because I believe in it.
Anyway, so this happened at the request of SUNY College late yesterday afternoon.
They found the demonstrators occupying, trespassing on school grounds, at least 14 people taken into custody during the melee.
Video from the scene shows an officer using a megaphone trying to warn these people to disperse immediately or face arrest as defiant protesters, you know, screaming, free Palestine.
Another clip then shows officers wrestling a man before unleashing a taser on them.
Let him go.
You're hurting him.
Someone could be heard yelling from the crowd.
A woman could be also seen recording the tense altercations on a cell phone in one hand as she held a toddler in the other arm, screaming at the cops to stop and the protesters standing, quote, for human rights.
And an officer was heard yelling at the woman to get that baby out of here now.
Yeah, maybe you could, where's the maternal instinct?
Don't put your kids in the middle of a melee.
I mean, do you have to actually have to be, you know, do you actually have to be told that?
Don't bring your kids to protest.
Not a good idea, especially ones that might have a tendency or propensity to be violent.
By the way, a town hall held by the New York Attorney General, Letitia James, Thursday night, disrupted when a Trump supporter stood up to challenge her to apologize to the president.
My question for Tish James: Will you apologize to President Trump for wasting millions of dollars and the state of New York for a witch trial?
The guy asked, and how does it feel to know that you're going to go to prison for mortgage fraud?
The crowd erupted with booze.
The man was escorted out.
I mean, if you're sure they're going to come up with an excuse, I don't know how this is all going to play out here, but if it's true, the allegation that she said this house in Virginia was going to be her residence at a time she's a politician in New York, you can't lie on mortgage applications.
Gee, sounds an awful lot like the case that she was trying to bring against Donald Trump, the Sybil case, but we'll wait and see.
And of course, she ran on a platform.
Get Trump, get Trump.
As part of the mess, if you look at all that the president has inherited and all the work that he's putting in, now next week, I won't be on the air Monday because I will be traveling to report on with the president and to report on this trip.
There are three stops that we are making.
One in the first one in Riyadh in Saudi Arabia.
Linda accused me yesterday of going on a vacation.
It's not exactly the place I'd pick for a vacation.
I'm just saying.
I'm pretty sure I didn't say that.
I would say you're having more.
Well, you should just go and enjoy the moment.
I'm like, well, the reason why.
No, I said you should go and enjoy the moment of being with the president and on Air Force One and with the president's detail and all that that encompasses.
24 hours library on TV is a lot.
Well, what's the point of me not reporting to my audience?
You'll bring it back to us.
You'll have lots of interviews.
They'll have more flexibility with the schedule.
I'm not worried about flexibility.
There's a seven-hour time difference.
And I'm sure by the time that we get on this radio program, which would be, what, seven o'clock?
It's a seven and eight-hour difference, depending on where you are.
I can't figure it out.
I'll let you go.
Sounds like it's going to go great if you're already confused about that.
That makes sense.
All right, 10 o'clock, 9 or 10 o'clock at night, I think, is when I'll be doing the radio program.
Everything's going to be done by then.
And I will have had the opportunity.
I'm not going to slip.
What if there's a big difference with like a king?
Like a dinner or like drinks or tea.
Okay, I don't think I'm going to be invited to dinners with kings and crown princes.
You're traveling with the president.
I don't know.
It doesn't feel like a stretch to me.
Okay, I am there to the whole purpose of this.
And by the way, the second stop will be Doha and in Qatar, Qatar, whichever you prefer.
And the third stop will be the UAE, and that would be Abu Dhabi.
What's so interesting about it is there is such an amazing transformation that really started under Trump's first term.
And trust me, I am a trust but verify guy.
I want to say that up front.
But there certainly is dramatic transformation coming.
Trump got the ball rolling, and he is by far the peace president and not the forever war president, which I'm in full agreement with.
We can't send our national treasure and ever go through Iraq again.
Now, the only thing I would say is we didn't have the military technology that we do now.
I believe future wars will be fought in air-conditioned offices.
Certainly, intelligence assets will probably always be needed on the ground.
However, I don't think wars are going to be fought that way.
That's why I keep talking about the next generation of weaponry.
But the whole purpose of this is: yes, I will be interviewing the president.
Yes, I will interview the people that are around him.
I actually, thanks to a connection, there is a New Yorker, a guy with the thickest New York access, the coolest guy ever, lives there, very close with the crown prince, has one of the biggest jobs to build out,
you know, the entire country into what will be the biggest resort-style up high-end everything to attract tourism, kind of like what they've done in Dubai and the UAE.
And I can tell you that, you know, the fact that Saudi Arabia is pledging a trillion dollars in investment in the U.S., the UAE a trillion five in investment in the U.S., shows me a lot about what they think of us and wanting to be here and do business here.
And trust me, a lot of people want to do business here.
I mean, the most amazing thing I think that is underreported is the threat of terrorists by President Trump that got everybody so worked up and Wall Street so skittish resulted in $8 trillion in committed investments in the next four years in manufacturing, which is also good for national security, also great for job creation.
But if we're going to start building our own cars here and not outsource pharmaceuticals, which are critical to the health of this nation, and semiconductor chips here, which is critical for the age in which we're living in, and then, of course, you can add to that artificial intelligence.
We're getting ahead of the game and also getting a hold of rare earth minerals.
We have plenty of them.
I've spoken to the problem is, is we just were too many people, again, institutionalized thinking.
They were just willing to accept that it was going to come from China.
There was a New York Post article today about how the White House tech czar wants the U.S. to continue to lead in AI use and development.
I will tell you, all of you, I don't care how old you are, if you can afford it, just do it for a month.
You don't have to get the year plan.
I got the year plan for Grok, which is Elon Musk's.
I think it's the best one, my personal opinion.
And I've tried others.
And just start playing with AI.
And you will see how different the world is going to be in a very short period of time.
It is unfolding before our eyes.
Steve Moore mentioned this company that if you put in architectural plans, that they will build the, they can build almost 60 plus percent of a home with robots.
I mean, when Elon Musk says the best surgeons will be robots, they're not kidding.
I mean, the world's going to change.
That's why, by the way, the manufacturing things that we're going to need humans to do, et cetera, et cetera, is going to be very critical with an adjusting economy and workforce, and everybody's got to be ready for it.
My funniest story is that talk show host in Australia that was AI generated, and the people in Australia didn't know for six months.
They got pissed when they found out.
Oh, man, they were pissed.
Hey there.
I'm Mary Catherine Hale.
And I'm Carol Markowitz.
We've been in political media for a long time.
Long enough to know that it's gotten, well, a little insane.
That's why we started Normally, a podcast for people who are over the hysteria and just want clarity.
We talk about the issues that actually matter to the country without panic, without yelling, and with a healthy dose of humor.
We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we do take the truth seriously.
So if you're into common sense, sanity, and some occasional sass, you're our kind of people.

What I told people, I was making a podcast about Benghazi.
Nine times out of ten, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked, why?
Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
It's almost a dirty word, one that connotes conspiracy theory.
Will we ever get the truth about the Benghazi massacre?
Bad faith, political warfare, and frankly, bullshit.
We kill the ambassador just to cover something up.
You put two and two together.
Was it an overblown distraction or a sinister conspiracy?
Benghazi is a Rosetta Stone for everything that's been going on for the last 20 years.
I'm Leon Navok from Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries.
This is Fiasco, Benghazi.
What difference at this point does it make?
Yes, that's right.
Lock her up.
Listen to Fiasco, Benghazi, on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
I mean, between the border, between war in Europe, war in the Middle East, an economy that's a disaster, you know, a country that's getting ripped off by the world.
You know, what did Joe Biden ever do that's successful?
Now we're finding out.
I had Sean Duffy on last night, the transportation secretary.
I cannot believe, because we now have a control tower radar at Newark Airport.
It went dark for now a second time in two weeks.
You know what he told me last night that he asked Mayor Pothole Pete about the job.
He said, well, basically a department that runs itself.
Everything that they have in terms of radar, in spite of all the advancement of avionics and technology and computers, they've got computers that have five and a quarter inch floppy discs for crying out loud.
They haven't upgraded anything since the 50s and 60s.
I mean, and they did nothing.
And now we're having, and they handed him off a shortage of 3,000 air traffic controllers.
Want to know why your flight's delayed?
That's probably a big part of the reason.
And people are being stranded at airports left, right, and sideways.
There's not anybody that I know that travels on a regular basis that's not frustrated as hell.
And Pothole Pete wants to be president.
And his big infrastructure project was, what, 60 charging stations?
And he spent billions to do it and DEI this and DEI that and, oh, you know, racist roads, whatever the hell that means.
A lot of news we'll get to with the president's trip abroad.
Obviously, all these countries in the Middle East are going to want to talk about not just the economy and their investments in America, But Iran, we'll get to some more of that later.
Got to give a shout out to my friend and colleague at Fox News, Judge Janine Pirro, who's now been appointed the interim U.S. attorney in D.C.
And we hate to lose her on the five, but she's been a friend for many, many years.
And you always want people to do what they are called to do in their life.
And I know this has been her personal passion.
I can't think of anybody better for the job.
You know, obviously expect.
And, you know, when you go into public service, not only you're going to make a lot less money, it's a sacrifice for a lot of people, for successful people.
If the right people are picked, if you're just a bureaucrat, you know, that's the best you're probably ever going to do in life.
And that means congressmen and women.
That'll be the most money they make in any given year because some of them are just, you know, they're just politicians.
And what other skills they have, I don't know.
What other entrepreneurial endeavors they may be involved in.
Now, some people go to Washington and they get very wealthy.
Nancy Pelosi, great case in point.
She just happens to have the Midas touch when it comes to her and her husband and their investments, which infuriates the heck out of me.
Trump's tariffs have foreign car makers now an update on the success.
Remember, $8 trillion committed investments, by the way, from two of the countries that I'll be going to next week, Saudi Arabia and the UAE, combined $2.5 trillion.
But then you have all these other companies from Apple to NVIDIA.
Pharmaceuticals, AstraZeneca, announced that they're building facilities here in the U.S.
And, of course, auto manufacturers, Honda, Nissan, BMW now, I believe, is joining the list.
Hyende has joined the list.
And a report out today in the Daily Mail, but the second largest automaker, Volkswagen, and their luxury brand, Audi, are now planning to make some of their crossover SUV electric models in America.
Quote, we want to localize more strongly in the U.S.
Oh, I'm sure this has nothing to do with Donald Trump.
Nothing at all.
We just decided we'd do that.
Audi scouting potential locations.
One, Chattanooga, Tennessee, where Volkswagen currently builds an electric crossover model.
Analysts say it could easily adapt to the Audi manufacturing platform.
Another potential site, South Carolina, where VW is breaking ground on a new factory to build electric-based pickups and SUVs under the Scout Motors name in response to tariffs.
Honda, Hyundai, Nissan, all announcing plans to manufacture their electric or hybrid vehicles stateside.
I'm the most surprised person of anybody.
When I got my Tesla, I just wanted to, it just shows solidarity because I felt Elon Musk was being treated so awful for no reason at all, except that he's associated with Trump and he's identifying all the corruption, waste, fraud, and abuse in Washington.
And in the meantime, in his spare time, he's saving astronauts.
In the meantime, he's helping Americans with communications after natural disasters like in North Carolina and Tennessee and Pacific Palisades out in California.
And then, of course, he's working on important things like seeing if he can use artificial intelligence to help the blind see again and people with spinal cord injuries walk again.
They're just little things that he's working on.
By the way, Doge has deactivated 500,000 credit cards that have been issued to 32 federal agencies.
That's a lot of credit cards to monitor.
How much do you want to bet?
People didn't really monitor them.
I'd bet almost anything.
The president has cut Joe Biden's out-of-control spending so dramatically, the national debt is now shrinking.
This was in the Washington Examiner today, a stunning fiscal success for the Trump administration.
We're now learning that the sky-high deficit spending under Biden has been slashed so dramatically.
America's national debt, now over $37 trillion, is now actually declining.
That has not happened since Newt Gingrich and Bill Clinton balanced the budget four straight years.
It's not been balanced since.
Even without any new budget cuts enacted, the Trump White House will have slowed the growth of federal debt so dramatically that the total national debt has actually shrunk since Inauguration Day.
And while the $5.5 billion decline is a drop in the bucket, it shows that the second Trump administration is taking a machete to federal spending or a chainsaw that the media made fun of.
You know, for example, if you look last year under Biden, the national debt went up a staggering $478 billion.
That's a 92% year-over-year reduction in the growth rate of our national debt.
Tax revenue is soaring.
I know there's a lot of talk that the president is considering raising, quote, taxes on the wealthy.
Every time it's been tried, that always has the negative effect.
Every time you, I don't care if it's JFK, Calvin Coolidge, Ronald Reagan, Donald Trump himself.
You cut taxes, top marginal rates, revenues to the government go up dramatically.
They went up dramatically in Trump's first term.
They doubled in the eight years Reagan was president.
And it just works every time.
Every time you raise taxes, then you head into Herbert Hoover territory.
It just doesn't work.
And it never has worked.
That's why I believe in lower taxes, greater freedom, less government spending, eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse, returning to constitutional order, all the things.
In many ways, this is a great reset.
This is the end of establishment institutionalism, at least for the time Trump is in office.
This is our moment to get it right.
This is our moment to fix what has been accepted by both parties.
It's sort of like the Uniparty belief.
And it's just sad.
You only get certain movements, not a movement like this.
This is unprecedented.
We've never seen a movement like this.
And I grew up watching Reagan so closely.
I can give you every statistic you want on Reagan.
On the economy, Reagan dropped the top marginal rates from 70 to 28%.
And after a hiccup, because it took a couple of years for his plan to get implemented in the first two years of his administration were inflationary, then it was like, you know, the sky's the limit.
Revenues to government dropping taxes that dramatically doubled at the time, believe it or not, it sounds like nothing, $500 billion to over a trillion dollars.
And it was the longest at that time period of peacetime economic growth in history.
And it resulted in the creation of 21 million new jobs.
And those policies still work today.
By the way, apparently, Raw Story is an article about Ed Martin, who had been the president's acting U.S. attorney for D.C. Apparently, somebody spit on this guy, spit on by an irate woman while giving an interview.
Like, you got to be kidding me.
Maybe my favorite story of the day: do we have Bernie Sanders on with Brett Baer refusing to apologize for flying on his private jet?
Donald Trump during a campaign mode at National Airport.
No, no, no.
It doesn't.
But he's also not fighting the oligarchy.
No.
You run a campaign and you do three or four or five rallies in a week.
The only way you can get around to talk to 30,000 people.
Think I'm going to be sitting on a waiting line at United waiting, you know, what, 30,000 people are waiting?
That's the only way you can get around.
No apologies for that.
That's what campaign travel is about.
We've done it in the past.
We're going to do it in the future.
Oh, I mean, it's just like John Kerry's answer.
I need a private jet because my work is so important.
By the way, Bernie Sanders, eight top Democrats, pressuring CBS, the new owner, Paramount, not to settle Trump's lawsuit.
Who cares what Bernie Sanders says?
I mean, how do you justify, you know, if you're fighting the oligarchy, you know, that everyone else can wait at United and get stuck at Newark Airport or any of the big airports in the country and have to deal with equipment and control towers with a shortage of controllers and they could sit there for hours and hours on them.
But to fight the oligarchy tour, oh, that transcends all importance.
You know, John Kerry, climate czar, he spends his private time on private jets and his public time on private jets.
Al Gore, same thing.
They want an electric vehicle.
They want to shove it in your driveway.
They want to take away your gas stove.
They want to take away your refrigerator, your washer, dryer, and air conditioner, and your plastic straw.
I hate paper straws.
I don't like them.
I don't.
What are you laughing so much for, sweet baby James?
I can't, it makes everything taste like crap.
I can't.
Can we talk about the fact, though, that you get your drink in a big plastic cup with your paper straw in the land of irony and liberal logic?
Oh, yeah.
Well, that's how they serve.
Sometimes it's a paper cup, which, by the way, let's say you have a Coke and a paper cup.
I've never had that ever.
You've only had a plastic cup?
Always.
Okay.
Do you ever go to Shake Shack or McDonald's?
No, of course you don't go to McDonald's.
You have literally abused your child.
You won't give him a happy meal.
At least he doesn't feel the paper straw.
If it wasn't for me, that kid would not know what good french fries taste like.
I force you because you air fry them and you brainwashed, oh, these are the best fries ever until he tried my happy meal.
And my happy meal, I asked him, Liam, I don't know, what is he?
Six years old at the time when I asked him, Liam, what do you like better?
The happy meal or your mom's french fries?
Which french fries?
Oh, McDonald's french fries are much better.
Yeah, it's a happy meal served with a sidel heart attack.
It's very nice.
It's wonderful.
A six-year-old's not going to have a heart attack.
Stop being the crazy calendar drink-shaking, putrid, green, projectile vomit something that you eat all of a sudden.
By the way, it was Josh Hawley.
I was talking about the Pelosi's.
They beat every hedge fund with their stock trading.
I'm sure there's no insider trading going on there.
Unreal.
And this is now what we have.
Democratic senator tells the New York Times why their approval for their party is in the toilet.
Chris Murphy explaining to the New York Times, saying that what they could be doing to get the public back on their side.
I don't know.
I don't know that anyone was ready for Trump in his second term.
I think there was an assumption both in the public within the Democratic Party that Trump 2 would look very much like Trump 1, and it'd be a lot of rhetoric and bluster, but it wouldn't be matched by actual action.
Actually, it did have a lot of action.
Democrats trying to force retailers to display the cost of Trump tariffs.
First of all, this issue is going away.
I will say this.
All this rhetoric towards your senator, I'm beginning to really feel bad for John Fetterman because what they are doing to him is vile.
It is just vicious.
And I think it's just horrible.
I really do.
Did you see what Dave McCormick put out?
Dave McCormick actually tweeted out: it's time to put politics aside.
Stop these vicious personal attacks against Senator Fetterman, his wife, and his health.
While we have many differences, we are both committed to working together to achieve results for the people of Pennsylvania and make their lives better.
There's really only two issues that I find myself in agreement with Fetterman on, but they are profound.
One is he wants secure borders, actually, three.
Two is he supports Israel.
And three, he recognizes that we can't allow Iran to ever get a nuclear weapon.
By the way, Abdul.
Right, but the hip pieces are on his health.
And if they cared about health and not cognitive issues, then they would have paid attention to Joe Biden.
But they didn't.
Let me tell you something.
If he agreed with the squad AOC and Jasmine Crockett and Grandpa Bernie, he wouldn't be attacked.
I can't believe the level of recovery this man has had.
It's been miraculous.
People should be happy for him.
They're only attacking him because they hate him.
That's all there is because he dares to call out their extremism.
You know, speaking, Israel is saying they're going to take Gaza if they don't release these hostages.
This is the last straw.
This is it.
And, you know, Israel in a fight for their very survival.
You may not know it, like the U.S., Israel has their own Independence Day.
It was May 1st.
But for the people of Israel, freedom is nothing more than a daily struggle, a survival struggle.
And there's no peace, only terror.
And it's hard for them to find moments of joy while there's so much suffering.
Tens and tens of thousands of Israelis have been displaced.
