  The handshake is better than anything I ever signs, right here.

• 0:18Speaker 01

  You are a one of one? My son's right there.

• 0:20Speaker 00

  I don't think I've ever said this before.

• 0:27Speaker 01

  Alright, so I'm gonna tell you a story today about a cherry blossom. Study that they did in 2013 on how grandparents pass down fear to their kids, kids. How grandparents, through a study on mouse, Mike, they're going through the... This is a ridiculous study that everybody needs to know about because you and I as parents, we need to be aware of this. But before we get into that, let me tell you a few things that we got going on. There's a lot of stories. I literally, I... The stories we have, we may need the full two and a half hours today to go through it, although we're probably not gonna go that long. One, we have a flu virus that's spreading in the Norway's World Cup team. Everybody's panicking.

• 1:07Speaker 01

  Number two, Marco Rubio is working on things to allow pictures to be taken for your passport online. No longer needing to go to CVS or Walgreens or UPS. Some people say it's good, some people say it's not good. Another story is the FBI is investigating Argentina's

• 1:24Speaker 01

  Football Association for alleged money laundering, wire fraud and tax evasion, which is kinda crazy that they're doing that. That, that, that, that story's everywhere. Everyone wants to know what the hell is going on with that. Of course, Argentina advanced, beating Egypt, scoring those three goals in a span of 16 minutes, which was crazy. And then today, I think France is playing Morocco today, which by the way, Morocco's nobody to, nobody to mess with. I'm a Morocco guy. I think they're good. Although I think France should take it. Planned Parenthood in California, a mess. The funding stopped. They're not getting any of the stories. They're not getting any of the money. Lots of people complaining. Some people are happy. We'll talk about that. H1B visa fraud investigation, which has to do

• 2:05Speaker 01

  a story of, there's a story out there saying Microsoft is laying off 4,800 people, yet hiring H1B visas. Like, wait a minute. Why are you getting jobs away from American workers with a new CEO and then you're gonna give it to somebody else on H1B? We'll, we'll address that as well. There's a story that came out, which is kinda weird in California. You know, asking for Californians to teach black English. Let me say this one more time. Activists are asking California to teach black English, being pushed to kids in preschools.

• 2:38Speaker 02

  You tripping.

• 2:38Speaker 01

  Tell me the...

• 2:39Speaker 02

  You're, you're tripping on me.

• 2:40Speaker 01

  You tripping, boo. You know what movie that's from? You tripping, boo. You got me straight tripping, boo. No, you got me straight, uh, uh, uh, man, what is that movie with, I'll figure it out. I'll figure it out. Don't be a menace, pal. No, no, no, it's a different one.

• 2:53Speaker 02

  No, I know. It's with Tyrese?

• 2:55Speaker 01

  No, no, no, no, no. This is not like the...

• 2:57Speaker 02

  Shit, blood, you don't commit him to me?

• 2:58Speaker 01

  No, no, no, it's a different one. Tom, just be careful, Tom, before you say anything.

• 3:02Speaker 02

  Tom's about to upset Trump.

• 3:03Speaker 01

  And by the way, the story, the story's a very weird story. Mbappe, Senator Paraguay comes out and calls out Mbappe, says, "Instead of drinking breast milk, he grew up on sucking on coconuts. The most educated creatures you ever heard of were chimpanzees."

• 3:19Speaker 02

  Wait, she said that?

• 3:20Speaker 01

  This is the senator from Paraguay. And then Mbappe had to respond back to her, saying, "What the hell is your problem? You just took all the light away from the Paraguay and how great they played, and you put all the..." And then she's like, "Yeah, this is how we talk in my country. It's very normal for us to, you know, call somebody a black piece of you-know-what." Was very common. This is a senator from Paraguay, which is interesting. We'll address that. Then we got a couple of other things we have to talk about. The ceasefire. Cristiano Ronaldo's exit, his final words when he exited, losing the World Cup. This is it for him. Done, done. And he said some things. By the way, Gavin Newsom's camp responded to our podcast and they retweeted one of the videos from our podcast when, uh,

• 4:01Speaker 01

  the story about the wire, you know, the why somebody was wired on an insider, you know, "This would never happen. This didn't happen. This is not true. That case wasn't under us. She wasn't working with us." They had to explain themselves, which like a novel, a novel of explaining, but...

• 4:16Speaker 02

  Was not in my circle of influence and took two paragraphs to say that.

• 4:18Speaker 01

  Well, Gavin Newsom now threatens to arrest anyone who tries to clean up California's disastrous election system. That's what they're saying. That, that, that's California for you. And then we got another story of Erdogan. Everything I've ever asked him for, he's done. Erdogan takes the stage as NATO's Trump whisperer. "European cars, you ready? And European cars, cameras are watching you while you're driving, making sure you're not falling asleep." So they're monitoring everything you're doing, European. They're saying that's a good thing that they're doing. Maybe we can have the debate. You may agree, you may not agree. GOP, Florida GOP called us out. Florida GOP called us out and says, "All these people that are trying to hold debates out of the proper way of doing it just for publicity." I'm like, "Who the hell are you to talk like this?

• 5:02Speaker 01

  People, voters want..." No, our focus is general election. Conservatives need to get a debate. And they wanna know what's going on. And so maybe, maybe somebody needs to fund an independent poster that people respect to say, "Where are these candidates actually at in the state of Florida? Let's get a debate." And DeSantis agreed, and he even said something about it yesterday. "I don't appreciate what happened. I did respond back directly to the chairman of Florida GOP and then he DM'd me back. We went back and forth with, which we'll talk about here, maybe sometime at the end. Graham Plathner. Eventually, everybody stepped away from him. Bernie Sanders, everybody that endorsed him stepped away, including Rokana and others. We'll get into that. He gave an 11-minute video yesterday, which he said nothing. New York schools, by the way, accused of targeting teachers

• 5:47Speaker 01

  who blew the whistle on great inflation.

• 5:50Speaker 02

  What?

• 5:51Speaker 01

  Yes, great inflation. We watched Young Washington yesterday. The movie, it opened with $19 million. And the entire car ride back, it was about the main actor. You know, we're talking about, which is different thing. We don't need to bring that up, but that's just different things we talked about. And then the view of Sunny Houston came out and she said she gets uncomfortable when she goes into communities and she sees American flags. Do you not get nervous when you go into community to see an American flag? That's what Sunny said.

• 6:17Speaker 02

  Did you know there's a new scary movie, a horror movie coming out?

• 6:20Speaker 01

  What's it called?

• 6:20Speaker 02

  Called Flag.

• 6:21Speaker 01

  Flag.

• 6:21Speaker 02

  And it's like in the house and it's coming to get your whole family.

• 6:24Speaker 01

  One letter away from being very offensive, I'm just telling you.

• 6:27Speaker 02

  It could be, that could be a whole scary movie.

• 6:29Speaker 01

  American flag, like American, you know what I'm saying? They can't do stuff like that. That's offensive.

• 6:32Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 6:33Speaker 01

  And so anyways, alright, so you got some of those stories we'll get into and a few other surprise ones that we'll get into. But let me, let me, let me tell you this story. Let me tell you this story. It's one of the best stories. Parents, this is very important for you and I to think about. There's a reason why I keep talking about the future looks bright. In 2013, they did a study at Emory University, a guy named Brian Diaz and Kerry Ressler did a study identifying to see if we pass our fears down to our kids without us even knowing about it. So they took a group of male mice and they gave it acetophenone and every time, this is cherry blossom, you know, smell. Every time they released this smell, they would zap them with this pain. Like, whoa, what was that?

• 7:16Speaker 01

  Five minutes later, they released that smell again, zapped them again, the pain. Whoa! Five minutes, and they kept doing this with only male mice they were experimenting on. Eventually, they did this for a few days, maybe a week, week and a half. Then they took those same mice that now have tied fear to acetophenone, the smell, cherry blossom. Then they put it in a room for them to mate with female mice.

• 7:43Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 7:44Speaker 01

  So then they mate. So these guys now have kids. Then they take the mice, the male mice, the father away from the baby.

• 7:51Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 7:52Speaker 01

  Then they take the babies and they put other female mice and they mate.

• 7:56Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 7:56Speaker 01

  Then they put the grandkids in a completely different thing. So you're with me so far.

• 8:00Speaker 02

  I got you.

• 8:00Speaker 01

  The grandfather fears the smell of acetophenone.

• 8:03Speaker 02

  And he got zapped.

• 8:05Speaker 01

  He got zapped every time. Then his kids and then his grandkids. The grandkids have never met grandfather before.

• 8:12Speaker 02

  Got you.

• 8:12Speaker 01

  They put him in a place and all of a sudden, they sprayed the cherry blossom. These grandkids were frightened. Frightened because that fear from the grandfather had passed down to the grandkids.

• 8:26Speaker 02

  Genetically, it goes...

• 8:27Speaker 01

  And they've never been zapped. And they've never been zapped.

• 8:30Speaker 02

  Holy wow.

• 8:30Speaker 01

  So what does this mean? Yesterday, we're at the beach and I'm watching how happy Brooklyn is. And in my mind, you know, you're running all these issues in your mind. You're trying to solve all these problems. You're kinda overwhelmed with all the stuff that's going on. And I'm looking at her and she's just happy. She's happy playing in the sand. She's happy running around. Daddy, take me, take me, take me in the water. It's cold. No, no, don't put me in the water. Daddy, daddy, take me, take me. And then you start realizing, we are all born with believing the future looks bright. But if we're not too careful, we can pass down that fear to our own kids that can pass it down to their grandkids. When people say, "Why do you believe the future looks bright?" I just do. I just do. I believe the future looks bright at the highest level. By the way, for some of you guys that are watching this,

• 9:15Speaker 01

Yesterday, the president is sitting with Erdogan.

• 10:13Speaker 01

  Erdogan's not a fan of Bibi. Turkey and Israel are not best friends. It's not like they're hanging out. They, they don't go to, you know, have drinks together. They don't go watch movies. Like, the chance of them watching a movie together, Young Washington?

• 10:24Speaker 02

  Slumming on.

• 10:25Speaker 01

  Right? That's not gonna happen.

• 10:26Speaker 02

  Not even try.

• 10:27Speaker 01

  While he's sitting there, he is talking about removing the sanctions. Humberto, I don't know if you got the videos of, if you wanna pull that up. So I want you to watch this video here, folks. How openly the president is speaking and saying, "Yeah, Erdogan doesn't like Bibi." And if it wasn't for me, dot, dot, dot, watch this clip here. Go for it.

• 13:10Speaker 08

  I don't like much. But I like, I like Erdogan. I'll tell you, I like President Erdogan. He rolled out the red carpet. He's terrific. You know, he could have gone into the war. A lot of people saying like with Bibi, I like Bibi. I think Bibi was a terrific wartime prime minister. But Bibi said rough things yesterday about Turkey and Erdogan. And I said, you know, I spoke to him. I said, he could have gone into the war because he doesn't like Israel much and he doesn't like Bibi much. And he didn't go because of me.

• 13:42Speaker 08

  And this is a military power. Millions of soldiers. Turkey is very strong. They have a lot of our best equipment. They're trying to get the F 35s. But he didn't go in. He wanted, he would go in. If it weren't for me, he would have gone in and he would have been on the other side. But there are a couple I don't like.

• 14:00Speaker 01

  So how do you process that, Tom? How do you process what he's saying here and the way he's positioning, wanting to remove sanctions of Turkey? How big of a deal is that? A lot of people are not happy. Some people are happy. Where do you stand with this?

• 14:11Speaker 09

  Well, there's, there's two countries that he's been talking about and one is Turkey and the other is Syria. And people will say that the guy that's leading Syria is, you know, an ex thug, ex terrorist.

• 14:21Speaker 02

  He is a terrorist.

• 14:22Speaker 09

  But the, but the, but the fact is Syria's position has moved against Iran and it has moved positively. They're not saints and I don't think you, you trust them with your lunch money, but things have moved and Trump wants Syria to do more. Trump also wants to everybody to be reminded that Turkey is a war power. Three things he said, they got some of our best equipment. They want the F 35s. Translation, maybe we're doing a deal, maybe we'll talk about that. And he said, you know what? I like him. And so the rest of the world hears, I like Turkey, they're a war power. They have our best equipment and they're asking for the F 35s, leaving the rest of

• 15:04Speaker 09

  the world to say, oh Lord, don't give them that in addition to all this other equipment. So I think Trump is drawing a line there. And there was a great game a long time ago. It was called diplomacy and diplomacy was on a board and it showed old Europe, Pat. And you would sit there and put your pieces on there and then talk to people about who you're going to support. I'll support you, but I'll support him in an attack against this other guy. And then at the end of it, after we all have our moves, which we put on paper, we put in the middle and then we read out all the results. And guess what? Usually the people that had the strongest alliances win. And I think Trump is trying to build alliances and keep people in a state of stasis.

• 15:49Speaker 09

  And stasis is like we have the nitro and the glycerin in two separate jugs, but they're still next to each other. And he's trying to keep through strong diplomacy, people from attacking each other and to remind people who is the linchpin all this and it's United States of America.

• 16:08Speaker 01

  Adam, what are you at with this? How do you process this?

• 16:11Speaker 10

  So Trump breaking down the relationship between Bibi Netanyahu, Israel and Turkey's Erdogan.

• 16:17Speaker 01

  Removing, talking about removing sanctions and while openly discussing the fact that Erdogan doesn't like Bibi and still didn't attack Israel. How do you process all of that?

• 16:29Speaker 10

  Yeah, well, look, in, in geopolitics, Trump has become a master. Uh, his first term, he was, I don't know, just above water. Right now, I think he's sort of moving and grooving and knows what he's doing. And he realizes that diplomacy, like Tom said, is essential, meaning you could be friends with two people who are mortal enemies. The old enemy of enemy is my friend. The reality is Erdogan and Turkey has made Turkey stronger than it's ever been, but also he's a legit authoritarian. He's trying to make, basically make the Ottoman Empire great again. And I don't know, you might have some Armenian and Assyrian and Greek friends that don't want to hear that news, but Trump doesn't really necessarily care about that. He wants to basically make a deal.

• 17:12Speaker 10

  And the deal on the table is let's see what, let's see what happens. He has no loyalty when it comes to a deal. He has, there's three different camps. There's friends, there's enemies and there's frenemies. So we know who our allies are. Israel is an ally despite all the rhetoric out there. We know who our enemies are out there for sure. Iran, Russia, China. Turkey is what I would call someone in the middle, which is a frenemy. They could go either way. And I think the way that Trump structures deals is let's take this frenemy and try to make him a friend, try to fit this, uh, round cube into the square box, as they say. We'll see what happens, but I do think that Trump has the ability to be friends with some bad, bad dudes, some bad hombres and Erdogan is one of them.

• 17:55Speaker 01

  Benny?

• 17:55Speaker 02

  Well, Pat, I think Tom, when Tom said the word diplomacy, I mean, I can't, it always goes back to my mind imagining if, let's just say, I don't know how Biden was doing or who was calling the shots, his wife or, or whoever, but the diplomacy part of how much Trump is such an alpha boss where he could sit there and say, listen, I'm cool with this guy and I'm cool with this guy and they hate each other. And the reason that everything hasn't gone off the rails is because of me and you have to give him credit for it. Okay. He walks in the rooms and he tells them, hey, guys, the boss is here. And he is, put yourself in the mindset, Tommy, if Kamala Harris, I, I have, I always like, oh my God, if Kamala Harris was in charge, who knows how these people would be going at it.

• 18:37Speaker 02

  It's like having, it's like being a parent, Tom, and, and having two of the kids that want to go after each other. If you're not a strong parent, they're going to beat the crap out of each other and everybody in the house is going to suffer. And I, and again, we criticize him. I have my, my, you know, hiccups about Trump and some of the decisions he made, but in this type of situation with diplomacy and where we're leaders that have bombs. And Tom, think about it. He's basically saying, we sell stuff to Israel and we sell stuff to Turkey too.

• 19:03Speaker 09

  Best equipment.

• 19:03Speaker 02

  Best equipment. And now we're talking about our best of the best fighter jets that we want to give them. So I think in this situation, he's, and you nailed it, Tom. Nitro and glycerin right next to each other. And Trump is just that, like that little border that keeps them from, from ignited.

• 19:16Speaker 09

  And Trump's a boss. I mean, it was once said, and I love this line. I think it was Giscard D'IA Stang or Neville Chamberlain. I don't know who they attributed to. I've seen it attributed a lot. The art of diplomacy sometimes is telling the other man to go to hell in such a way that he really looks forward to the trip.

• 19:32Speaker 01

  So the question is, the question here becomes who, who releases this? Does he need Congress for this sanction to be released? And if he does, is Congress happy about this? Is Congress sitting there saying, yes, let's do this? Or can he just go to Rubio and Texas and say, guys, let's start working on this? What is the process with this, Tom?

• 19:52Speaker 09

  Oh, it depends on where these sanctions were. Were they trade sanctions or were they presidential purview sanction? And I confess, I didn't do the research on that.

• 19:59Speaker 01

  Yeah, I'm, I'm curious to know, I'm curious to know what the process with this would be because is he saying this and then putting it out there where Erdogan says like, oh, he's open to the idea, but he knows on the back end, Congress is not going to pass it. So it's like, yeah, I try to do it, but it's on Congress. Don't get upset at me. Congress is the one I really want to, so this, this is a very tricky situation because you're, you're, you're putting the, I wonder, I wonder if this is a Congress issue. He's always, um,

• 20:28Speaker 02

  Well, I think so bad because if it's, if, if with terrorists, he has to go to them and they can knock it down. I don't see why this wouldn't be something as well.

• 20:35Speaker 01

  Let's look at this year. The core sanctions on Turkey were Russian, as one of the programs were codified by Congress at the CATSA, uh, uh, CAATSA and the provisions of the National Defense Authorization Acts because they are in the statute. The president cannot just erase them by executive or Congress has to change or waive the, okay. So that's the issue right there.

• 20:52Speaker 09

  So they got put in a statute, not an executive, executive order. You could just say, I changed my mind. I'm done.

• 20:56Speaker 01

  To me, to me, this may be a, because Bibi's sitting there saying, dude, what are you doing? Turkey's already that strong. What are you doing with this? Okay, this is what I'm capable of doing. This is what I'm capable of doing. Uh, and we know the position with Iran's changed. So let me get into the Iran situation. Trump says ceasefire is over after US and Iran trade strikes overnight. Okay. And the comments, if you guys haven't seen the video, he just came out and says, so what happened? He says, look, I thought they were good people. Now I really know what they're all about and I'm not interested and I don't want to negotiate with them. These are bad people. These are this, these are that. And he went back and said, here's what we're going to be doing. They started attacking. And on the story with this, US hits more than 80 Iran targets.

• 21:40Speaker 01

  reimposes oil sanctions. So we're back at it again with this. The United States launched a new wave of military strikes against Iran, hitting more than 80 targets and imposing sanctions on Iranian oil after Tehran attacked three commercial ships near the Strait of Hormuz, further straining the ceasefire reach between the two countries. U.S. Central Command said American forces struck air defense systems and command and control networks, coastal radar sites, anti-ship missile capabilities, and more than 60 Islamic Revolutionary Guard boats to degrade Iran's ability to continue attacking international commerce. It added that U.S. forces remain prepared to hold the Iran accountable when the agreement is not adhered to or obeyed.

• 22:21Speaker 01

  The U.S. was also revoked a waiver allowing Iranian oil sales that has been granted under ceasefire, saying Iran's attack on commercial shipping justified restoring sanctions. Iran responds, Iran vowed retaliation, warning it would deliver a crushing response to what it called "American aggression." The country's top military command said it would, under no circumstance, permit interference in the Strait of Hormuz and insisted vessels use routes designated by Iran. Iran's top negotiator, Bahadur Galiboff, accused Washington of violating the memorandum of understanding, writing, "The era of bullying and extortion is over. We don't fold." Tom, thoughts on this?

• 22:57Speaker 09

  Well, first of all, so let's go take a look. Oil, after last week, remember we had things going back and forth last week, Benny? And we talked about that the market didn't really move much. The market was like, "Yeah, well, these guys are going to be growling at each other during this," and so the market didn't move. All of a sudden, this happens, and oil overnight popped back to 74.25. Remember, we were at 67 and all celebrating, "Hey, 67.75. That's where we were in February 27th when this started." And we're like, "This is great. This is what we need." And now, all of a sudden, oil is back up, back up into mid-70s. We don't need that. So number one, the markets now, Pat, are reacting the way they did four weeks ago, three weeks ago. They're back to that, being nervous.

• 23:42Speaker 09

  And the ships in transit, they were kind of going, they're claimed to be right now, according to transponders on Strait of Hormuz tracker, we have 51 ships in the Gulf proceeding. And the insurance rates are elevated, but not extreme. So the cost of sailing there. Now, so that means that things are moving in the Gulf, but the markets are nervous with all this. But on the other side of it, there is an arm wrestling match going on in the background. Remember, there's two shipping lanes that go on the south, and then there's two shipping lanes that go on the north by, you know, Linares Island, I think that is, on the north.

• 24:27Speaker 09

  And that's where Iran says, "You will go on the north lanes," because eventually, they want to put up the toll booth. And everybody's like, "No, we're going to go on the south lanes," and the British and the Americans have cleared the mines. And that's what's pissing them off. They got ships going down there on the south, because that's a lever point for Iran. So after a week of growling at each other, PBD, we now have very real market response all over again, and very real bombs, and we're not just hitting, "Oh, those two drone sites were launched? Eh, we'll drop 10 bombs on the drone sites." Apparently, we hit 80 sites.

• 25:00Speaker 01

  Yeah, 80 sites, 80-plus sites. By the way, this is the president talking about Iran.

• 25:03Speaker 09

  It's on again.

• 25:04Speaker 01

  Going back and forth. Watch this here, folks. Go ahead.

• 25:07Speaker 11

  Is the ceasefire over? Is the ceasefire done? Is the MOU dead?

• 25:11Speaker 08

  It's a very interesting question. To me, I think it's over. I don't want to deal with them anymore. They're scum. You know what scum is? They're scum. They're sick people. They're led by sick people. And they're vicious, violent people. And if they had a nuclear weapon, they'd use it. As far as I'm concerned, it's over. I'll speak to our negotiators. They want to negotiate. They're good people. Steve Whitkoff, Jared Kushner. But they have to come back to me. As far as I'm concerned, it's just a waste of time dealing with them. They're liars. We make a deal. And if I make a deal with him, we have a deal, and he goes out, he talks. We make a deal. Everyone's agreed, no nuclear weapon. We make a deal.

• 25:56Speaker 08

  They go outside, talk to the press. They say, "We never even talked about it." There's something wrong with them. They're cuckoo. As far as I'm concerned, it's over.

• 26:05Speaker 01

  Funny. By the way, if you can find the other clip as well, a person then asked, and he says, "What happened? I thought you said they're good people. How did they all of a sudden go from being good people to being bad people?" And he explains that, he addresses that. I don't know if you have that one or not. Do you have that one, or is that the one? A while ago, they wanted to make a deal so badly, I just wanted to... I don't think it's that one. So when you see his position here, Adam, with the way he went from one side, being, "Hey, let's make a deal, memorandum of this, understanding," and then all of a sudden, "Nah, bomb them. These guys are not good people. They're scum." How do you process that?

• 26:39Speaker 09

  Well, thank you for coming to your senses, Mr. President. Nobody wants to tell the president, "Well, we told you so, sir." But now's your chance, if you want to do that. He says, "You know what? They're scum. They're sick. They're led by sick people. They're vicious. They're violent people. They're liars." And these are the supposed moderates. So anybody that's been following Iran, Pat included, obviously, our boss here, we know what these people are. We knew that when they signed this memorandum of understanding, the third word, "understanding," there's no understanding with these people. The only language that they understand, unfortunately, is strength.

• 27:18Speaker 01

  Exactly.

• 27:19Speaker 09

  And then when you actually start bombing them, being like, "Oh, my God, we just killed your Ayatollah. Now they're doing a funeral." That's the only language they understand. Because you have to respect one thing about the IRGC and the Islamic Republic of Iran. They really believe in what they're doing. I mean, we think it's crazy, obviously. They think, "Inshallah, this is what they're working on." So when we have our memorandums of understanding, we're trying to have peace through strength or diplomacy.

• 27:44Speaker 01

  Adam, let me ask you this. How much you think...

• 27:46Speaker 09

  They're just not buying it.

• 27:47Speaker 01

  How much you think the president saw the way they did the funeral for Khamenei? And they're saying, "Trump's got to be next. He's got to be a target with the MC." How much of that... Do you think the president saw that, by the way? Do you think the president saw or was reported on how the funeral was?

• 28:05Speaker 09

  Oh, absolutely.

• 28:06Speaker 02

  I think 1 million percent.

• 28:07Speaker 01

  Okay, so how much of that do you think, really? I'm on this side, trying to get a deal with you, and this is how you're talking during your funeral? You want to take me out? No problem. That's what you want to do? Boom, change of plans. Deals off the table. How much you think was the funeral that caused him... Because he's never spoken like this about them before. Never. If you... Not like this scum. He's never said they're scum. He's never said stuff like this to... They're cuckoo. He's never been this strong about Iran ever before. So for me, I wonder how much of it was the way they celebrated Khamenei's life, his funeral, and the comments that they met with not just anybody, the MC of the event, for him to say, "You know what? Take it off the table. Let's go strong at these guys."

• 28:47Speaker 09

  I think you're right, and I'll make only one simple observation. Do you remember when the media said, when Trump was watching it on TV, it wasn't that he was watching the speeches at this particular moment, he was watching the footage of all of the tens of thousands of people that were in the streets, Pat, you know what I'm talking about? And he turned to somebody, and he said, "Is that real footage?" And they said, "Yes, sir, it is. That's live. That's real." And then he said this, "I thought they hated him. And I saw that comment, and then I saw all the anti-Trump rhetoric, and now I see this? I connect those dots."

• 29:23Speaker 01

  Yeah. Yeah, I think there may be a connection there with the timing of it, to say, "This is how you guys want to handle this." Is this the one, by the way? Is this the clip? Watch this clip here, folks.

• 29:33Speaker 08

  It's a very interesting question. To me...

• 29:37Speaker 01

  No, this is... Fast forward. You've got to go to exactly where it's at. You've got to keep going to the question a person asks. Benny, I'll come to him until he finds it.

• 29:46Speaker 02

  Well, now, I'm with all the stuff that's going on, and I could get into the funeral, because, brother, there was four Americans that were there, Pat. Calla Walsh, Jackson Henkel, Christopher Halali, and Max Blumenthal. These are Americans that were there. I'm not trying to change the story, Pat, I'm just trying to give some context, especially about this funeral. They were taking photos with "Kill Trump" written in English behind them, "Kill Trump." And the only way that these four Americans could have attended this funeral was direct coordination with the IRGC, okay? Which is a designated terrorist organization. So for a fact, Pat, it's on his radar, and he knows. But the thing that's hitting me, Iran has the upper hand when it comes to the Strait of Hormuz, Tom.

• 30:30Speaker 02

  This is going to keep happening, okay? And I'm not going to go back to, you know, rehash why it happened, whose fault it was, blah, blah, blah. Put that aside. We are where we are right now. America needs to figure out a way to freaking nip this in the bud, because every two weeks, they could just bomb somewhere, we come back, peace deal, negotiation, not... I think, and I hate to be that guy, but Pat, something has to happen. They need to figure out a solution to cut off this freaking power, because these guys are walking around with too much, like, I didn't have arrogance, because they're like, "We'll bomb a couple," and what are they going to do?

• 31:02Speaker 01

  So let me ask this. Let me ask this.

• 31:04Speaker 02

  I don't like it.

• 31:05Speaker 01

  Here's the other question for you. Where does Turkey rank as military in the world?

• 31:08Speaker 02

  Their top four, top three?

• 31:09Speaker 01

  Where does Turkey rank?

• 31:10Speaker 09

  They're number one in the Middle East region by might and armament.

• 31:14Speaker 02

  A regional strong power.

• 31:16Speaker 01

  Yeah. So here's a question for you. Here's a question for you. Not worldwide, but in that area, if you can pull up the number of where Turkey ranks, where's Turkey at? So look at the timing of the deal.

• 31:29Speaker 02

  In the region.

• 31:30Speaker 01

  Look at the timing. Yeah, I mean, that's the region I'm talking about. Look at the timing. Look at the timing of it. On the same day you're attacking, on the same day you're sitting there talking to Erdogan. Do you think, behind closed doors, Trump asked Erdogan for something to do with Iran, to either step out of the way, support, and Iran now... What is the relation Turkey plays with Iran in this situation?

• 32:00Speaker 01

  Because i- is he doing two deals? Because Turkey at one point was buying, was going to Russia to buy weapons from them, right? Turkey at one point went to Russia to want to buy weapons from them. So what, is there any correlation between Turkey and Iran? Any correlation there between the two?

• 32:17Speaker 09

  Well, they've had a delicate relationship at best. Um, but they've had a cooperative relationship when it came to Israel and the West. Um, Turkey was not supporting, arming and sending supplies. So from everything I've read, Turkey never sent supplies to arm Hamas or Hezbollah. But they would be in basic diplomatic cooperation with Iran while having a very tenuous relationship. Because Turkey knows that friendship with Iran changes the whole dynamic with the US. And so is it possible that he said to Erdogan, you know what? This is gonna happen and this is gonna happen. And I need you to make sure you don't move here.

• 33:01Speaker 09

  Uh, I think that's absolutely possible. And why wouldn't it? Why wouldn't he do that? You know what I mean? Wouldn't you want, if you had the largest power in there and you're supplying him weapons, Pat? Wouldn't you check in and just take his temperature on stuff at least right now? Because you know other people, Russia and Iran are trying to speak to him backdoor? Even if he wasn't a big Iran buddy walking hand in hand down the street?

• 33:25Speaker 01

  Yeah. A part of it is also Turkey buys oil from Iran. And so is their ties here with straight, do they have? How many ships does Turkey have in Strait of Hormuz right now? Can you check to see how many ships does Turkey have in the straight right now? Do we know? How many ships are there? Adam, while he's looking that up, go for it. You look like you want to say something.

• 33:43Speaker 10

  Yeah, well, Trump is just trying to thread the needle. It's a very delicate situation. By the way, where are these NATO talks being, uh, held? They're being held in Ankara, Turkey. So, you know, if you're gonna be in someone's house, you're not gonna disrespect them. So Trump, here's my little synopsis. Trump got his little, what I would call publicity victory on June 14th. A lot of, I know a very wise man who called it on June 14th. I also know somebody else was like, look, I don't think this is gonna hold. And that's kind of playing out. Iran and Turkey have, what they call, I think, a managed rivalry, but they're not friends. They're not enemies. They're somewhere in the middle in the frenemy situation. What they say about Iran is Iran's never won a war, but they've never lost a negotiation. And then what Trump is trying to do is trying to focus on winning the midterms.

• 34:26Speaker 10

  And Iran is focusing on trying to win the end of times. So those two things are gonna clash. At the end of the day, this thing's gonna continue. Turkey's gonna try to play a role, but at the end of the day, it's gonna come down to, are we taking out the IRGC or not? Because they will continue terrorizing the world and their people unless they're stopped.

• 34:43Speaker 01

  So, so public reporting shows commercial Turkish owned ships, not Turkish Navy warships. At the latest report, seven Turkish owned vessels remain in the Hormuz. With 177 Turkish crew members abroad, 11 Turkish owned ships had already left since the war began. So Turkey does not appear to have a publicly confirmed naval deployment. I wasn't concerned about the naval deployment, just business ships that are coming and out or bringing things back. I don't know. I think the timing of it, Trump is typically when you do a deal, you will, you will, before you make that phone call here, you know who they're gonna call. So you call this person first to make sure this person's on your side. Then you make the phone call. So when they call like, oh shit, what do I do now? So, and, and, and Trump say, Trump said something in one of the things.

• 35:27Speaker 01

  He says, how do you think I became the president? I know when a deal is not gonna happen. I, I know, I know when a deal's not gonna happen. Do you have that clip of, I know when the deal's not? Play this clip first and we go to that. But he was specifically saying that I know when a deal's gonna happen and a deal's not gonna happen. And I know these guys are not gonna do it. I can just tell when I do it. This, this guy knows deals and the call, so we, we don't know the entire story. That's for sure. Go ahead and play this clip. Watch this.

  Mr. President, Tyler Pager with the New York Times. Last month, you said Iranian leaders were very rational people, nice people to deal with, strong people, smart people. Today, you said they were scum, sick people and being led by sick people. What changed and do you think?

• 38:31Speaker 08

  I got to know him, so. I've said that about a lot. Now, when you say rational, I think they're much more rational than level one, level two. Level one is gone, level two is gone. This is level three. I think.

• 38:45Speaker 01

  So that, that's the part he was talking about, level three being more rational. And then all of a sudden snapping, so. I don't know. I've always liked unpredictable leaders. I always liked, a father is great when he's predictable and an element of unpredictability. A leader is great when he's predictable and an element of unpredictability. A world leader definitely is good to have a level of unpredictability. Yesterday, we're going for our walk. We went on a long bike ride. And one of the conversations we had on our walk, if you remember this, two days ago. It was, if you have these four energies, tell me which one of them's the most important in different relationship dynamics? Fear? Do you want to be feared? Do you want to be loved? Do you want to be liked?

• 39:30Speaker 01

  And do you want to be respected? And I asked the question of you, I said, what do you think it should be as a father? And then you asked the question, depends on the age, which is the right question to ask. I said, okay, what about a 10-year-old boy? Your son versus a 25-year-old son? And at 10 years old, what did you say? With kids? With a kid, they want love from the father. Okay, so number one is to be loved, to love, and then? They have to like you because they want to be able to play with you. They have to respect you because it's 10 and then he has to fear you. So you think at 10 years old, fear's gotta be last? Fears have to be, at 10 years old, uh, probably, no, probably a little bit, a little bit less. Yes, I fear you a little bit more. Okay, so how about at, as a world leader, you're president of the United States, you're dealing with Iran. What, which one of those four you think matters?

• 40:15Speaker 01

  They have to fear you. Okay, that's it. Have to be. You have to have some fear. And guess what? Who feared Biden? Nobody. Nobody feared Biden. So I, I liked a little bit of the unpredictability of fear to see what's gonna happen. Yeah, exactly. By the way, is that the one of making a deal where he says, mind? Go watch his clip here. This is a dealmaker. If you've not read the book Art of a Deal, this is who wrote it. Go for it.

• 40:37Speaker 08

  We have many ways we can win, but we've already won militarily. They have very little, they have very little left and they want to make a deal so badly. They called a little while ago, they want to make a deal so badly. I just don't know if they're worthy of making a deal. I don't know that they're gonna honor the deal, that's the problem.

• 40:54Speaker 13

  If they want to make a deal, why do you think they attacked commercial vessels?

• 40:59Speaker 08

  Because they're sort of crazy, to be honest with you. They're sort of crazy. They're a little bit out of control, but they want to make a deal badly.

• 41:11Speaker 01

  This wasn't the one. It's another clip when he's talking about, I know when somebody doesn't want to make a deal. I know when somebody is full of shit. Like he flat out said that. So anyways, let's go to the next story. Next one I want to get into is the following. So, World Cup. A story came out, I think it was from Kao Shi. And Kao Shi said, "Ticket prices of the World Cup have dropped 60%."

• 41:32Speaker 02

  That's crazy.

• 41:33Speaker 01

  Since US and Portugal is out. And we saw how US lost, Belgium. Unbelievable. It was incredible to why it was, it was humiliating. And by the way, Christian, Polisic is getting trashed right now by a bunch of different people. And Landon Donovan came out and said, "This is what's gonna, what's gonna happen," all this other stuff. But there was a big camp around the world that wanted to see Portugal and Ronaldo win his first World Cup. And they lost. They lost. When they lost, there was an interview that was on Afterwards. I don't know if you have the clip of the interview. There was an interview that was on Afterwards with Ronaldo. And a lot of people in the marketplace are talking about this, saying, "Look, this is why he is not Messi. This is what the market is saying."

• 42:17Speaker 01

  Where he said, "I want you to see this. And look, to the people that are Ronaldo fans, I know we're gonna get it and I want to hear it. I want you to give your thoughts on this, but is this how a champion speaks? Maybe you like this kind of conversation. Go ahead, play the clip."

• 42:31Speaker 01

  I've won three titles for Portugal. Before Cristiano, Portugal did not win a single title.

• 42:39Speaker 01

  The best title I have won with Portugal is the Euro 2016. Honestly, for me, Euro 2016 is like winning the World Cup.

• 42:48Speaker 01

  Again, I lead with clear conscience and give my best. Tomorrow will be a new day, then life will go on. How do you feel about that answer right there to say, "Before Cristiano," meaning before Cristiano, he's talking to himself as a, "Before Cristiano," and then saying that 2016 Euro is the same exact thing as winning the World Cup?

• 43:11Speaker 02

  Like, listen, talented, awesome, family, father, all around amazing, amazing. He's a net positive to the sport, to society, for his country. But that attitude after you don't make it, it's kind of like, "Hey, I'm, I'm good. I'm really nasty. Portugal wouldn't have nothing without me. And by the way, I already won something that to me is just as important, if not better than the World Cup." Bro, have some humility. You, you know what, you know what he could have basically said? "Hey, it wasn't in my cards, but you know what? I've had a great career. I represent my country. I love my country. Good luck to everybody else." That's simple. Not me, me, me, and I've already done this, this, this. And that's why, with all due respect to all the people out there that are gonna get pissed off,

• 43:55Speaker 02

  there's Messi and then there's Ronaldo. There's no question, it's not even in the same conversation. And I'm sorry to put it to you. Messi, you think Messi would ever say some crazy stuff like that if he was in his position? Honestly, if he was in his position, would he ever say, "Hey, Argentina would be nothing without Messi and Messi, Messi, Messi." Come on. That's not a good look.

• 44:14Speaker 01

  I don't, I don't know about that, but to me, like, would Messi would say that? A lot of people would say Messi would never say that, right? These are true Messi fans that would never say that. But to say it was the same thing, like, it's the same thing as the... Tom, how do you process that? Because I want, I want to share some numbers here with you guys.

• 44:29Speaker 09

  Well, to say, "Without me, they wouldn't have got anything," that's pure ego. That's not team. That's ego. And then to say, "Well, you know, Euro 2016 is the same as a World Cup," what? I mean, no one thinks that. No one agrees with that. There's not one person anywhere. That's just denial. And between ego and denial, Sports Illustrated said that the statement was painfully on-brand, meaning this is what a lot of people...

• 44:56Speaker 01

  Who said that? Sports Illustrated?

• 44:57Speaker 09

  Said it was painfully on-brand.

• 44:59Speaker 01

  Meaning no one's surprised that he said this because he was known as...

• 45:03Speaker 09

  This is, this is him, walking off at the last World Cup, chasing the money when other players wouldn't chase the money in Saudi Arabia. There's a saying, "Hey, this is on-brand. This is ego and denial."

• 45:15Speaker 01

  Yeah. The way, the way I look at it is, I went back, okay, and looked at the 2016 Euro that he won. When he says he believes it's the same as the World Cup, you know who he didn't face?

• 45:25Speaker 02

  Who?

• 45:26Speaker 01

  Where was Neymar in 2016? How good was Neymar in 2016? 2016? Neymar was 10 times better than today. 2016, Neymar was Neymar.

• 45:35Speaker 09

  The height of his power.

• 45:36Speaker 01

  He didn't face Messi. You didn't beat Messi. You didn't beat Suarez. Suarez was good at the time. You think about Uruguay. You didn't face James Rodriguez. You didn't face Alexis Sanchez, Alexis Sanchez, Arturo Vidal from Chile, which we got our guy here, Mohamed Saleh. This is at their peak. You didn't beat these guys. And by the way, Zlatan didn't play in the final Euros. There was a couple, a couple of guys that didn't even play. But when you, when you think about, when you think about the comments being made, saying like, "Hey, I believe," I don't know which one of the players, Carmelo and one of the NBA players says, "I believe winning the gold medal is bigger than winning the NBA championship." It's not.

• 46:10Speaker 09

  Yeah.

• 46:11Speaker 01

  It's not. It's a lot harder to win NBA championship, to win a gold... No, but it's not... They make these arguments. Charles Barkley said it best. "I'm not a champion." And he criticized himself. He says, "I've never won." You're right, I've never won. And there's nothing more important than, stop saying it, doesn't mean... I, I don't like the comments to be said. I think there could have been a different position for him to make, but I will tell you. There's something in soccer they do once every 30 years, 40 years.

• 46:37Speaker 01

  It's called Super Ballon d'Or, which the Super won, I believe it's coming up in 2029. If you pull up who won the last Super Ballon d'Or, it's the, uh, Stefano, what's his full name? Di Stefano, he won the last Super Ballon d'Or, and it was in 1989. In three years, they're gonna announce the next one. When, let's just say Messi wins the World Cup. I don't think they're gonna win it. I think France just looks too dominant and, and if Egypt almost beat them, you know, I think France can probably beat these guys. And by the way, France has to beat Morocco. Norway looks good. There's just too much competition.

• 47:18Speaker 01

  England even looks good. I mean, this is a very competitive part. But to make comments like that, who was it? Alfredo Di Stefano. Yeah. That's the last, you know, so now if they give the next one in 2029, I just don't like going that way. I was rooting for Ronaldo. The entire time I was rooting for Ronaldo. The entire time. I wanted this guy to win. Because, you know, one of our kids is a big fan of Ronaldo, but I don't like, I'm a post-game interview guy, and I don't think no champion should talk like that and say, "Euro Cup" and all this other stuff. I just don't think that's a good idea to say stuff like this. Adam, your thoughts on this?

• 47:54Speaker 10

  Well, Ronaldo versus Messi, this is a conversation we've been having. Here's what I've realized in sports. There's good players, there's great players, and then there's just the goats. And in this conversation between Messi and Ronaldo, who's the goat and who's a great player? We all know the answer to that. Messi's the goat. So Ronaldo's going home, and Messi's still playing, and he's going for his back-to-back World Cup championship, and he may win. We'll see. You know, you brought up basketball. I know PBD is a massive basketball fan. I'm just a, you know, a sideline hustler out here. But when, when MJ was coming up and, and, uh, Magic was the man, and Bird was the man, Isaiah was the man, and then he surpassed these guys. He had some people on his level.

• 48:36Speaker 10

  He had Karl Malone, he had Charles Barkley, you just discussed, Clyde Drexler, Dominique Wilkins. All these guys were all-stars, great players. But they all eventually realized, "No, my bad. That's the goat right there." So what's gonna happen to Ronaldo at some point? He's got to look into the mirror and see his pretty boy face and say, "Wow, I'm great, but Messi's the goat."

• 48:56Speaker 01

  Yeah, I mean, look, I'm a Kobe guy. I'm a diehard Kobe guy. But when Kobe was on that streak of back-to-back-to-back in his early 20s, I'm like, "Dude, this guy's gonna pass up Michael as the greatest of all time." He didn't. He ended up winning five, lost two, you know, field goal percentages, 43, 44, 45%. Michael was at 50, 51%, and a bunch of different things. So to me, Michael's the greatest of all time. It's not even a question. I think this case is happening. Let me tell you another story that happened. Mbappe plays against Paraguay. And Paraguay, I don't know if you guys watched the game. All, their game plan was injury, agitation, frustration. It was a nasty game.

• 49:34Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 49:34Speaker 01

  Nasty. And they kept trying to get under Mbappe's skin. Nothing happened. Eventually, they ended up winning, it was a close game. They won 1-0, if I'm not mistaken, right? It was a 1-0 game.

• 49:43Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 49:43Speaker 10

  Yeah.

• 49:45Speaker 01

  Post-game is over with, a senator from Paraguay puts a message out there. And I, I want to read this to you. This, this is, I don't know if you have the message of what she originally said. This is post of her apologizing and addressing.

• 50:01Speaker 02

  I still, when you said it, I don't believe it.

• 50:03Speaker 01

  She said, "Instead of having breast milk, he grew up sucking on coconuts. The most educated creatures he ever heard of are chimpanzees."

• 50:13Speaker 01

  She said this.

• 50:14Speaker 10

  What? He's talking about who, Pat?

• 50:16Speaker 01

  About Mbappe.

• 50:18Speaker 10

  Unbelievable.

• 50:19Speaker 01

  About Mbappe. And so Mbappe then responds back, and I don't know if you have Mbappe's respond. Mbappe responds back and he says, "What an embarrassment you are to your country. While your country just wins and they have all this incredible things to be proud of, you're coming out and saying something like this? Do you know you just stole all the limelight from what your players did and you made it about you? Shame on you." I'm gonna read you exactly what he said.

• 50:48Speaker 10

  Perfect response.

• 50:48Speaker 01

  Yeah, shame on you. You took, you took all the excitement and enthusiasm. Did you, did you get the tweet from Mbappe or no? If you don't have it.

• 50:56Speaker 10

  Mbappe, the France captain responded with a strongly, um, that's.

• 50:59Speaker 01

  Yeah, there, there's, there's a tweet by him and I'll read it to you. He says, "You are a despicable woman and unworthy of your position. You do not represent Paraguay, that country which has sweated passion and honor throughout the competition. Though your recklessness and your brazen racism, the entire world has already forgotten the journey and the historic effort that your players accomplished during the World Cup, making way for an incompetent woman who gives the worst possible image of her country. I will never allow people like you to platform, uh, uh, to her, the freedom to spread with hatred, racism around the world." This post on Twitter got 1.8 million likes.

• 51:42Speaker 10

  And look at her.

• 51:42Speaker 01

  Eighty-eight million views.

• 51:44Speaker 10

  Good, good. Eighty-eight million people see her face.

• 51:46Speaker 01

  Yeah. And then this is the response that she had in the video. Wa-watch the way she speaks. Tell me if this is your kind of a person. But press play and, and you gotta read the comment. Do my best to read the commentary to you, but watch her reaction. Go for it.

• 52:07Speaker 01

  This one doesn't have the translation. The one I sent you had the translation. This one doesn't have the translation. One of them had, uh, uh, one of them had the translation that's explaining, "Well, you know, I did apologize, but I'm gonna sue him and they're gonna sue him. He better this and we, and our, by the way, right there, look what she says right there. If you zoom in. I come from a society where gays were beaten and were calling someone a shitty, I don't wanna read the next word, was the most usual thing. I come from the generation and so now I'm trying to build a different Celeste Amaria that's so capable of coexisting with others. Have patience, I'm trying."

• 52:42Speaker 10

  What? That's her name?

• 52:44Speaker 01

  What?

• 52:45Speaker 10

  That's who it was?

• 52:45Speaker 01

  That's who it was.

• 52:46Speaker 10

  You give her, guys, give her time.

• 52:48Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 52:49Speaker 10

  She's gonna get rid of the coconut comments in about a couple of years. Then in five years, she's gonna stop saying the N-word. Give her some time.

• 52:55Speaker 01

  She says, "I've written down that, that had been needed at his discretion, you know, these claims that instead of breast milk, he drank, you know, coconut, the most intrusive thing she heard. I retracted myself," she says. "That is not discriminatory racism. Yes, it, it is what it is. I said it, I retracted. That's why I erased the post." She deleted the post, but this report gives an Afro-descendant community and not Mbappe. I give them all, uh, uh, to everyone. That was a disappointment. And then she says something, "But Mbappe hasn't apologized to me." What?

• 53:26Speaker 10

  Get out of here.

• 53:27Speaker 01

  No, no. She's asking Mbappe to apologize and she says, "If you don't, I'm gonna do to you what we did to Ronaldinho. Don't forget what we did to Ronaldo." It, it, what, what an embarrassment. What an embarrassing thing to say for somebody like this. So, you, you know, Adam, your thoughts on this with this, uh, story of Mbappe?

• 53:47Speaker 10

  How old is this lady? If I may, if we can pull that up for a second.

• 53:50Speaker 01

  She looks like she's in her early 60s, late 50s.

• 53:52Speaker 10

  Okay. And what was the quote she said about, "Hey, I'm still learning, I'm still growing."

• 53:55Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 53:56Speaker 10

  Lady, you got one foot on the banana peel and one foot in the grave and this is how you're acting. To me, this is like, what, what? Talk about low-life class in Espana, una desgracia. This person representing your country. I don't know. This is why I love free speech and this is why I'm a free speech absolutist. Allow people to say who they are and they will reveal themselves. This is disgusting. I've never heard of this woman and everybody said, "But what she's saying?" Any person with common sense in reality will realize, "You don't say these kind of things."

• 54:25Speaker 01

  He's 60.

• 54:26Speaker 10

  And maybe if you're a type of a racist person who tells little funny jokes on the side, okay, yeah, okay. Got you, buddy. You're gonna put this out in public and embarrass yourself, your family, your country? Desgracia. She's 61 years old, Pat, and like there's, there's. 61 years old, yeah. 61. She's still learning and growing, though. She, like, what, what a, like, think about it, and you nailed it back. Paraguay came in, they were fighting, they were a little aggressive, maybe a little dirty, but they fought their butts off and they were actually exciting to watch. And it just takes one person and she's the one to now put a stain on them because now, guess what the talk is? Nobody's talking about their gameplay. Nobody cares about the damn scores. It's her and her big mouth. And I'm, I'm curious to what the president is gonna say and what they're gonna do.

• 55:07Speaker 01

  Oh, this, the country came out and said, "We, we, we do not support the comment that was made by the senator." I think Paraguay responded and said, "This is not our position." This is her position. So Paraguay very quickly, uh, no, she, she's an embarrassment. Yeah, and go back to that story you just had.

• 55:25Speaker 10

  Horrible.

• 55:25Speaker 01

  Paraguayan senator demands apology from Mbappe, threatens illegal action. That's ESPN. She's true. She's saying, "I'm gonna sue you. You gotta apologize to me."

• 55:35Speaker 01

  She what?

• 55:36Speaker 10

  She's from the Liberal Party as well, yeah.

• 55:39Speaker 01

  That, that's.

• 55:39Speaker 10

  PBD, can I ask you a question, Pat?

• 55:41Speaker 01

  Yeah, of course.

• 55:42Speaker 10

  So, the, these people just basically, what are they called? Chimping out on the internet, this lady right now. We've seen people emotionally react to their team losing. We showed a video last week of a Mexican guy freaking out, "Oh, my God."

• 55:54Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 55:54Speaker 10

  There's Brazilians going crazy, people all around the world when their team loses, this lady in Paraguay being ridiculous. You, you've told a story about when you, you know, "Don't text real quick when you're in a fight because, you know, let time to cool off." What would you say to people who are just emotionally reacting when they're upset like this? I think you understand what I'm asking, right?

• 56:11Speaker 01

  Yeah, I mean, but this is not even emotional. This, by the way, this is who she is.

• 56:16Speaker 10

  Yep.

• 56:16Speaker 01

  This is not emotional. This is her. So you, you, because after you said, "I deleted it," and then says, "I come from a country of this and he better apologize or else I'm gonna sue," we just learned that's not a mistake you made. That's who you are. And guess what? It's okay. We now know who you are.

• 56:34Speaker 10

  Meaning, meaning she wasn't mad, she wasn't being emotional, she's just like, "Yeah, this is why I am."

• 56:37Speaker 01

  She is exactly who you think she is. This is not a joke. Government of France and Paraguay react to the racism remarks made by the senator, Celeste Amaria. And if you wanna zoom into this one, I do think they apologize. The government of Republica Paraguay deplores and rejects the statements made by the senator directed at the captain of the French national team, Mbappe. These statements are contrary to the values and principles that inspire peaceful coexistence and respect for human dignity, which our country promotes. Paraguay is a democratic, we're public governed by the principles of separation, independence. Okay. Now it goes into all this other stuff promoting the state, but. And then the French government also said the following, the president of a republic, this is from Macron, by the way. "The president of the republic supports Mbappe and the French national team in the

• 57:20Speaker 01

  face of racist attacks to which the captain of Les Bleus has been subject." The Paraguayan president wrote to the French, uh, uh, president, uh, to this effect condemning the remarks made as the Paraguayan Ministry of Foreign Affairs. So, there you have it. This is a one-off person. This lady, her face says it all. I don't know what else you need. Just look at her face.

• 57:39Speaker 10

  Yeah, she, she's not gonna come to a microphone.

• 57:41Speaker 01

  Tells you who she is.

• 57:41Speaker 10

  She's not gonna come to a microphone. Looks like a professional hater. Say, "Oh, lo siento, lo siento," which, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." She's never gonna come up and say that. You know, lo siento. It's the Karen of Paraguay. No, exactly. You know, mi arde el trascero.

• 57:54Speaker 01

  Hola Karen, in Paraguay.

• 57:56Speaker 10

  Tom, you sound like a, a novella, a Spanish. No, I just, I just said.

• 57:59Speaker 01

  Tom talks like that to Melva.

• 58:01Speaker 10

  Yeah.

• 58:02Speaker 01

  And Melva begs me for him to not try to talk Spanish.

• 58:05Speaker 10

  He's a joke caro.

• 58:07Speaker 01

  No, no, no, no, no.

• 58:08Speaker 10

  Joe, take caro, mi amor.

• 58:10Speaker 01

  Let me read this. Let me read this, what happened. Let me get to the next story while, while we're on the World Cup situation here. Argentina's Football Association. The FBI is investigating them for money laundering, wire fraud and tax evasion. Crazy story. Crazy. Nothing to do with Messi, but it has to do with Argentina's Football Association. Let me read it to you and what's confirmed. So, the FBI and the US Department of Justice prosecutors are conducting investigation into the AFA financial activities and the US investigation is focused on commercial and financial transactions that pass through the US banking system, which gives US authorities jurisdiction if federal laws were violated. Investigators are reportedly examining more than $300 million in transactions connected to sponsorship, media rights and commercial agreements.

• 58:54Speaker 01

  What investigators are looking into, according to reports, prosecutors are investigating money laundering, wire fraud, tax-related offenses and other financial crimes. At this stage, these are allegations under investigations, not established facts. The company at the center is a Florida-based company called Tor Prod Enter LLC. Is reportedly a central focus. Investigators are examining whether a collective sponsorship and commercial revenue on behalf of AFA moved hundreds of thousands of dollars through major US banks, distributed tens of millions of dollars to individuals or entities whose businesses purpose and, uh, purpose investigators are trying to verify which banks are reportedly involved. Citibank, Bank of America, JP Morgan Chase and PNC Bank. So, this is another one of those stories that's out there that's, uh, a lot of people.

• 59:39Speaker 01

  So, bottom line i- is an investigation not yet, uh, found, finding guilt. They are investigating, but this was one of the stories on Twitter that went viral on VT. Probably a bigger part of it is the market thinking if there's any ties to Messi. And people made it very, very clear, this has to do with the Argentine's association, not with Messi, but it is something that the FBI is now involved in, which is pretty wild. Because FBI is who? Who is the FBI?

• 1:00:07Speaker 09

  Ours, our federal.

• 1:00:08Speaker 01

  And that's who? Cash Patel.

• 1:00:10Speaker 09

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:00:11Speaker 01

  Cash Patel knows about this investigation. And so we know a phone call was made to FIFA for Balagon. So, you know, what does this have to do with anything? Who knows? I do know Messi is good with the president. I do know Messi is good with the White House. I think Messi is probably conservative. So is Ronaldo. These are family guys. Hispanics, most Hispanics are generally conservatives. Tom, is this a big story? I, I, do you think this is a big story?

• 1:00:34Speaker 09

  Well, it seems like business as usual in Miami. A foreign country has something that they've sold for an awful lot of money and it was illegal. And guys in Miami got busted for it. That, I mean, that happens all day. It's usually Colombia, not Argentina. But when you've got the World Cup, you've got opportunities for a lot of money on these sponsorships. And when you have a lot of money on the line, you have a lot of people that are going to come in and try to, try to, you know, bend the rules and do something with it. And it appears that that's what they did here. So sadly, this doesn't surprise me. I'm not condemning Argentina. But sadly, you know, we hear about it, you know, Super Bowl illegal gambling. We hear about March Madness and then we hear about Olympic things that happen.

• 1:01:17Speaker 09

  We, you know, this is not surprising that when the World Cup is there with so many dollars in it, Pat, that bad guys kind of magnetized to it.

• 1:01:25Speaker 01

  Yeah, there you go. Adam, any thoughts on this?

• 1:01:28Speaker 10

  I just, I'm not going to stand for this, Pat. Tom is just talking trash about Miami. He's lucky I'm not in the same room as him right now, Tom.

• 1:01:34Speaker 01

  Take it easy.

• 1:01:35Speaker 10

  Come on, Tom. Well, I actually, I, I, we broke up a little bit in the audio. I don't know if you were talking about Argentina with the waste, fraud and abuse, or you're talking about California, because I know we want to talk about that today.

• 1:01:45Speaker 09

  Pick one.

• 1:01:45Speaker 10

  But the reality is, yes, there's, there are some shady people in Latin America. And just like there's shady people all around the world. And yes, they want to park their assets here in Miami and here in America. I'm not familiar with this exact story. But shady people are looking to basically park their money in the United States because it's a safe haven.

• 1:02:00Speaker 01

  All right, so let me go to the next story. Let me go to the next story. Next story we got here is Gavin Newsom. California threatens to arrest anyone who tries to clean up California's disastrous election system. You should see the way he presented himself on what the, we are not going to allow anybody to come in, interfere election and all. Stop it. Stop it. Like anybody actually believes what this guy is saying. Even his own party has distanced himself from him. There's a clear and disturbing pattern emerging in the wanting days of California Gavin Newsom's administration. There's also indicated of how he'd rule this country. If you ever elect a president, so voters should pay attention. When independent journalist Nick Shirley exposed the massive amounts of Medicare, Medicare fraud,

• 1:02:42Speaker 01

  Newsom and California Democrats responded by pushing legislation to criminalize that type of investigative journalism, the Stop Nick Shirley Act. It's more than likely that this legislation is unconstitutional. We get thrown out of the courts. But that's not the point. The point is that Democrats have decided that protecting fraudsters and fraud is more important than the First Amendment. In the same vein, Gavin Newsom is also going to criminalize looking into California's broken dysfunctional election system. He's vowing to jail anyone who tries to expose the problem, fix the system. Here's what he had to say. Let me speak directly to anyone. Is that him, by the way? Go for it. How long is this? Forty-one seconds? Go ahead. Watch this, folks.

• 1:03:23Speaker 09

  Let me speak directly to anyone considering helping President Trump interfere with our election or our count. If you violate California's laws, if you interfere with our voters, tamper with our ballots or meddle in our election, you will be prosecuted. Doesn't matter who gave the order. That's why I'm moving forward with new legislation that would make it a felony to seize ballots before the vote has been certified by state and county officials. We will be the wall he cannot get past. Because we believe that once an election is decided, the winner governs for everyone. That's the architecture of American liberty. Donald Trump, he doesn't believe in that architecture.

• 1:04:06Speaker 01

  There you have it, Tom. Your thoughts on this?

• 1:04:07Speaker 09

  Well, he get it wrong. It's not the architecture of American liberty. It's your architecture, our elections are the architecture of American democracy. So what he's doing, Vinny, this is kind of funny. What do the Democrats do? What do liberals do? Accuse you of doing something they're already doing.

• 1:04:21Speaker 01

  Projecting.

• 1:04:22Speaker 09

  So, yeah, exactly. So, you know, we're going to accuse you of fraud or do it. Wait a minute. If they're trying to arrest us, maybe we could arrest them first. It's the same playbook. And it's, it's basically, this is the playbook of deflection. It's that same, same old saw. And so, you know, interfering with our elections seems like there's some evil force out there, Pat, that's interfering with California. No, no, that's not what it's about. It's basically, it's like they're, I'll tell you, there was a joke made about the World Cup that says, wait a minute, even though the game's over, shouldn't we wait till California counts all the goals? Maybe you didn't lose. And so that's kind of the, what we see here.

• 1:05:02Speaker 09

  And so we see Gavin Newsom, once again, you know, putting his chin out there and about to get hit. And this is, to me, this is ludicrous. You're putting something out there that you're setting yourself up for a shutdown, even by the Ninth Circus. And the Ninth Circus is the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals that is in Northern California. It's known as the Ninth Circus because it is the most overturned court in the land. But they would flip this in a heartbeat. And so it's, it's kind of shocking. It's grandstanding and it's a media moment and nothing more, Pat. That's what I see here.

• 1:05:39Speaker 01

  By the way, if you pull up the tweet, like last week, we talked about where he had a mole. He had somebody on his team that was watching him. And by the way, this investigation started under Biden, right? So they retweet, this is Newsom. They retweet the clip from July 3rd. This thing, go, go a little bit bottom to see how his audience reacted to it. It got 2 million views, only 1,000 likes, but go to the top and look at the way they, they opened it up and explained everything. MAGA bootlickers are spreading false information that the New York comic book has refused to correct in an article filled with innuendo, not facts. They are playing into Trump's lawless fishing expedition, empty-handed. Anyways, and then he go, gives, gives the facts. Can you go to the bottom? This is their actual office. Go to the bottom with the comment section.

• 1:06:24Speaker 01

  Let's see how their audience reacted. Number one, panic. Keep going a little bit lower.

• 1:06:27Speaker 09

  That's you. They used your video.

• 1:06:28Speaker 01

  Yeah, little fire scarecrow Gina Milan, zoom in a little bit, my eyes can't, can't see it. This started under Biden, not Trump, panicking. Haha, your panic is so awesome, you piece of commie. And you're Weinstein, what does it say? Diseased? Okay, I'm like, keep going a little bit lower. And you go, are you scared? You seem scared. Ain't nobody reading all that. Democrats always wiretap everyone. Don't play dumb. Go a little bit lower. So, so it's interesting that, that for them, they are right now worried. And the reason why they're worried is because the DSA has officially recruited Newsom. Newsom has officially publicly announced he lost to socialist and he's joining their camp.

• 1:07:08Speaker 01

  Newsom has officially thought to himself that there's no way we can win as modern Democrats. FYI. Who has been saying for the last two years that an AOC can become president 2028? Have you seen the Cowshy numbers lately? Specifically, the last two weeks where AOC is at? Have you seen how much he's climbed up? Have you seen the Vegas odds? Have you seen what's going on? If there is a candidate on the left that can win the primaries and be the Democratic presidential candidate, it is AOC. And she's number one on my list, not Newsom. Look at that number right there. Twenty-one, 17%.

• 1:07:53Speaker 01

  Ossoff is 15%. But here's what I want you to do. Can you do me a favor and zoom in on where she went up just in the last week? Can you put that in the last week? See how it says all? Just tap in one week. Go a little bit lower, right there, it says one week. Okay? And go one month. Go one month. Look at one month. Boom. At one point, she was at the same level as Newsom, and that was just 10 days ago. Just so you know this. She, he, and by the way, it's $146 million. So we're not talking about, you know, $146,000.

• 1:08:26Speaker 09

  This is just a small poll here.

• 1:08:27Speaker 01

  No, it's not. It's not. Newsom is so afraid of AOC and he is now copying AOC because he thinks he has to be a socialist to win. That tells you his backbone. He'll do anything and everything, take on any policy to be president because that's on his list of what he wants to do. Adam, your thoughts on this story?

  Well Gavin Newsom, bless your heart, bless your heart Gavin Newsom. You know how they say in the South, like when someone's an absolute mess, but you don't want to basically clown them. You're like, oh bless your heart. Well, that's what's going on here in California. Bless your heart Gavin Newsom. Nick Shirley lives rent-free in this guy's head. They're trying to pass the Stop Nick Shirley Act, which basically prioritizes fraudsters over the First Amendment, it says in this article. You know, if there was a poster child for basically standing up for illegals over the American citizenry, it would be Gavin Newsom's California. Maybe Mom Donnie's New York City, but maybe in New York, it wouldn't be bless your heart. It'd be like, Allah Akbar your heart.

• 1:11:50Speaker 10

  Either way, these people are trying to ruin America and they're going to do anything in their power to basically subdue the American citizens and basically prioritize the fraudsters. So bless your heart Gavin Newsom. Good luck out there buddy.

• 1:12:03Speaker 01

  Okay, Vinnie, any thoughts?

• 1:12:04Speaker 02

  Well, just very, very quick, like Gavin Newsom is one of the guys that really challenges you, challenges me, Pat, as a Christian, not to hate and despise someone. He is such a vile person. He lies through his freaking tongue. But Pat, he's very, like, he's so similar to a snake. Snakes use their tongues to navigate, Pat. They have no ears. They just use their tongues and they spit venom. They spit venom. And what he's basically saying is, if you try to make sure that we don't cheat in elections, because you know we are, it's illegal to even ask for identification in California. It's illegal. You can't do it. I know one of my friends that tried to vote, he took his ID out, but they're like, no, no, no. Like it was, like it was poison. You

• 1:12:48Speaker 02

  have to be careful with people like this. And I'm telling you, you know it's bad, Pat, when they're moving on from people like this in the party and they're going to the communist socialist side. But this guy from the beginning, Pat, we've called this guy out from the beginning. He posted one of my videos a long time ago going, yeah, this is a lie. No, no. He's a slithering snake. And I'm telling you right now, it's sad that we've moved on from somebody like that and we're going to the communist part, but he's still a freaking, a huge, huge threat. A guy like that.

• 1:13:15Speaker 09

  Let's run away from a simple label now. Subject of a DOJ investigation. Gavin Newsom, subject of a DOJ investigation. People need to get used to hearing it. Gavin Newsom, subject of a DOJ investigation, until it goes away. And the party has got Kamala on tour in the month of June, Pat. You see how she's been on tour? What is she doing? Where's that money coming from? The core party and the core Bidens, like traditional Democrats, they're right there and they're looking for a candidate and it's not him. They're increasingly stepping back from him. On the other side, you've got DSA, which is almost like the thorn in the DNC. It's like their MAGA, the Democrat National Committee, the DNC. DSA is like their MAGA, their thorn. But now

• 1:13:57Speaker 09

  they've got, they've got emergence, they've got momentum. This is real. This is very real. We're seeing a fracturing of the party. We're seeing a desperate Gavin Newsom, subject of a DOJ investigation. And then we're seeing Kamala Harris trying to say, wait, all you core Dems, it's me. We're seeing more than just Gavin Newsom, Pat. We're seeing a hot mess play out.

• 1:14:18Speaker 01

  Yeah. Well, we'll see. We'll see what happens. While this is taking place, the bigger story yesterday was Maine Democratic Senate candidate, Graham Plathner, who had that Nazi tattoo on his chest, suspends campaign after sexual assault allegation. And all the people that endorsed him came out and said, I rescind my endorsement. I rescind my endorsement. But after being accused by an ex-girlfriend of sexual assault, Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Plathner announced that he is suspending his campaign in a video posted on social media on Wednesday, in which he continued to deny the allegations and blasted the political establishment for derailing what he called the movement. In a video, Plathner, an oyster farmer and military veteran, said he is suspending his campaign and will withdraw from the ballot in Maine Senate

• 1:15:02Speaker 01

  race, which has been one of the most closely watched in the country as Democrats seek to take the back the seat, back to take back the Senate. What comes next needs to come from the people of Maine, Plathner said in a video, saying the replacement on the ballot should be done in an open, transparent way. We believe that for the movement to continue, it can't be me. For that reason, we are suspending campaign operations. Tom, how big of a deal is this?

• 1:15:25Speaker 09

  This is a big deal. This was the only guy that they had, because they're trying to go after Susan Collins. And what do we know about Susan Collins? Susan Collins in Maine has always been a thorn in the, and Adam has talked about her and talked about Lisa Murkowski, who have been the two women that have always been the thorn votes. Whenever there is something that got close to moderate on a bill, guess what? Those two votes on the Republican side used to walk across the aisle. And it drove the core Republicans nuts because they couldn't depend on it. So they're trying to go up against her. He polled well, and they said, hey, we need, this is Maine. This isn't Memphis. We need a white guy, a rugged guy. We need someone that'll get the

• 1:16:07Speaker 09

  independent voters. And then you had Elizabeth Warren up there going, what a guy. I loved her, I loved her speech where she gave the endorsement of him, Pat. What a guy. And now that's going to live forever in infamy, because she's going to see that in campaign ads over and over again. And now they're looking for somebody else. We need a rugged individualist here in Maine to go up against Susan Collins. And they don't have this guy, who turned out to be, oh my gosh, baggage.

• 1:16:35Speaker 02

  And but Tom, beyond baggage, it boggles my mind that the Democratic Party has spent almost 10 years saying Trump was a rapist and a Nazi. And when their own party has an actual rapist and a Nazi, they fight for him and they're cool with it. You know why? As long as he's going against a Republican. Adam, and you go, I know you're laughing because it sounds funny, but it's true. You know, I realized yesterday, because you mentioned his name, the Democratic Party has shown that it has some of the worst human beings on the planet, Pat. Scam artists, lying, rape, all that stuff. They're so bad that Hunter Biden, a crackhead who loves recording his sexual escapades, drug use, leaving stuff, he's somehow the most normal out of all of them right now.

• 1:17:16Speaker 02

  If you really think about it, he's funny, he's engaging. I like him out of all of them. But this is the thing, Pat. All this fake, yeah, oh, Adam, I can't wait for Pat to talk to him. But here's the thing, the gaslighting, this is the second time I've used that word on the podcast, if people know. What changed? Graham Plathner was vetted like thoroughly. Donors sent millions and millions of dollars. Ro Khanna vouched for him. Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren. It was all, they all, Tom, they all overlooked it and they tried to rationalize the situation. So let me ask you guys this. What changed? What, what made them abandon the Plathner boat all of a sudden? Okay? They,

• 1:18:00Speaker 02

  they gave him a pass with a Nazi tattoo. He's a self-described communist, fantasize about rape, Pat. The difference is, and here you go, the old accuser, the first one, I think it was Lindsay Fifield, she was a conservative. They tried to be like, oh, she's doing this because of this. And it's, and the new girl, the only reason is because the new girl that, that came forward, she's a liberal. So they couldn't hide from it. So just to let you guys know, it's okay to the Dems, if this guy rapes or sexual assaults allegedly a conservative, but and broke into somebody's house and raped her. When it's a liberal, they have to kick him out of the race. And it's the biggest hypocrisy. It's the party of degeneracy. And by the way, zero God. We

• 1:18:42Speaker 02

  mentioned this the other day. Name me one, Adam, any of you, anybody out there, a Democrat that is openly about their face about God and Christ. Good luck. Go ahead. None, me not?

• 1:18:52Speaker 01

  Tyler Rico.

• 1:18:53Speaker 02

  Who's that? Oh, yeah, that guy? Did you hear what, did you hear what he just said?

• 1:18:57Speaker 09

  But God is a gender neutral queer guy.

• 1:18:59Speaker 02

  Well, Alberto, put Tyler Rico, what he said yesterday about?

• 1:19:01Speaker 01

  Democrats will say Tyler Rico.

• 1:19:02Speaker 02

  Well, yeah, yeah. You know what he said yesterday about Muslims and Christianity? And it's the same. He basically said that we're the same. What, this go to the quote, we have, make it bigger so I can see it. We don't have to hear it. I always think of all the world's faith traditions as a circle. With that divine mystery of the universe in the middle, we have different names for that mystery, whether it's God, or Yahweh, or Allah, Nirvana, or Great Spirit, whatever you call it, this is a different pathway to the same fundamental truth. Full of it, 100% false prophet, false preaching, lying. No, it's not. Jesus Christ said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. And the only way, Adam, this is for everybody, to the Father is through me, Jesus Christ. That is it. I'm sorry. That guy's a fake, Pat. And he's a fraud. If that's

• 1:19:47Speaker 02

  their guy, then they have another thing coming.

• 1:19:49Speaker 01

  Here's what Elizabeth Warren said about Plathner in April. She said, Plathner is my kind of a man. Literally, that's what she said. Okay. Bernie Sanders said, he would do everything he can to help Plathner becomes Maine's next senator before later withdrawn support after the allegations emerged. Now remember, this is Warren and this is Sanders. And at the same time, Chuck Schumer, while Schumer had not been an early public endorser, he publicly called on Plathner to step aside after the allegations. So did Warren. She rescinded her endorsement. So did Sanders. So I mean, this just, this is a big story. Adam, your thoughts on this?

• 1:20:28Speaker 10

  Yeah. Well, this guy Graham Plathner is a total creep. Everybody knew who was a creep. Your mom knew it was a creep. Your daddy was a creep. Everybody knew he was creeping. And America got the ick. You hear the girls be like, oh, I don't know how I got the ick. Everybody was getting icked out of these people. And the Dems tried to basically creep him in the back door to be a senator for the United States government. Are you kidding me? So this, to me, Vinnie kind of nailed a part of it. This is a new low, when it comes to a set of standards of the candidates that can run for this new progressive wing of the party. And when you just say progressive, let's get real here. They're communists. Let's just, let's forget the progressive thing. They're communists. Maybe they're socialists, but somewhere they're there. But they vetted him,

• 1:21:13Speaker 10

  Vinnie, Vinnie talked about they vetted him. They're Nazi tattoo. Yeah, we're good with that. Communist populist ideology. Yep, that's our thing. Check. Sexual assault allegations.

• 1:21:24Speaker 09

  Yeah, well, it's okay. Actual grape. Well, was it a conservative or a liberal? It was a conservative. We'll let it go. Multiple grapes? Oh, liberal? Yeah. Ah, okay, but a bad poll? Yeah, if he's not doing good in the polls, we gotta get him out of here. We're gonna basically reduce his funding. He's gotta go. And obviously, he just had to drop out of the race. So Bernie Sanders, who this moral leader of the party, absolutely looks like trash now. Elizabeth Thorne looks like trash. But the good news is here, the silver lining here is the Republicans are gonna keep control of the Senate. Still remains to be seen what's gonna happen in the House. But this is good news for all of America.

• 1:22:04Speaker 01

  Meanwhile, while this is happening, the previous California governor who ran against DeSantis, and he almost won 34,000 votes. He almost won the first time around. He got arrested for drug possession in Alabama. I don't know if you guys saw the story or not.

• 1:22:19Speaker 02

  You don't say.

• 1:22:20Speaker 01

  TMZ posted this, and I don't wanna spend more than three minutes on this. So this guy who almost be, by the way, thank God for DeSantis. And thank God for President Trump's two or three tweets endorsing DeSantis to help DeSantis win the first time. The first time DeSantis won, Trump helped him out. The second time DeSantis won, it was on him by winning one and a half million votes. But this was, by the way, Florida, this was almost your governor. Democratic governor nominee Andrew Gillum facing felony charge after drug arrest. Go a little bit lower if you can. Okay, zoom in a little bit if you could. Andrew Gillum's legal troubles just escalated. The man who narrowly lost to DeSantis in 2018 race has now been formally charged following his Alabama arrest.

• 1:23:03Speaker 01

  Newly filed court records show he's facing one felony. Two misdemeanor counts go a little bit lower. According to the criminal complaint obtained by TMZ, Gillum is charged with felony possession of controlled substance, specifically methamphetamine, along with misdemeanor possession of marijuana for personal use and possession of drug paraphernalia. Prosecutors allege the offense occurred July 2 in Baldwin County, Alabama. Go a little bit lower. And the TMZ reported Gillum was arrested last week on Highway 98 near Walmart Drive in Daphne, where cops say they found three grams of methamphetamine, eight pre-rolled marijuana joints, four cut straws, three pipes, and a bong. My goodness, this guy's a pro.

• 1:23:42Speaker 09

  Jesus.

• 1:23:42Speaker 01

  Bong after pulling him over for alleged driving erratically. Tom, how do you react to this story?

• 1:23:49Speaker 09

  Well, actually, how do I react? It's like, you're not surprised because we have seen, we the people, the public, forget about partisanship. We have seen Andrew Gillum on an absolute downward slide. And this is a guy who apparently, you know, is showing signs of, is he personally addicted? Does he have deep problems? Whatever it is, he was nearly governor, found in a hotel room in, sorry to say for people, it's breakfast, in a pool of his own vomit, unconscious, unresponsive to the police, with a male escort and drugs, and, and, and.

• 1:24:28Speaker 02

  Yeah, he was, there was a dude in there with him.

• 1:24:30Speaker 09

  Yeah.

• 1:24:30Speaker 01

  Oh, so he's, he might be in the community.

• 1:24:33Speaker 09

  Maybe.

• 1:24:33Speaker 01

  Allegedly.

• 1:24:34Speaker 09

  He likes to have a good time, Pat.

• 1:24:35Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:24:36Speaker 09

  But.

• 1:24:36Speaker 01

  I know a couple of the people in government that did that.

• 1:24:38Speaker 09

  When the police came into the hotel and found him in that puddle of hot mess and everything else. The other, the occupation of the other individual that was arrested was male escort.

• 1:24:51Speaker 02

  Well, there's a lot of senators and stuff that go into hotels.

• 1:24:54Speaker 09

  But the point is.

• 1:24:54Speaker 02

  Larry Sinclair.

• 1:24:55Speaker 01

  March 2020, Gillum was found Miami Beach Police in a hotel with two other men after emergency resources were called or suspected drug overdose. One of them, Travis Dyson, was widely identified subsequently reported as a male escort.

• 1:25:08Speaker 09

  What? Yeah, and so the point is, this guy has been on downhill. So a guy that's going so downhill, is it unusual to find him pulled over, apparently driving erratically? And why is he driving erratically? Eight joints, a bong, a pipe, cut straws, and some other stuff, some meth. It's like, it's not surprising to me. And it's, this is a guy that needs help. And I'm glad he didn't end up in our leadership. Well, thank God for Donald Trump, because a lot of people think that Donald Trump saved the United States. I can tell you this conclusively, Trump saved Florida. Because you know, Pat, you always say elections have consequences. If this guy would've won, Florida could've been, what's going on in New York, California, Chicago, any of these states? Thank God he got DeSantis elected.

• 1:25:52Speaker 09

  Thank God DeSantis has become the greatest governor in the history of Florida, maybe in America right now. And to continue his legacy, hopefully we'll have Byron Donalds out there. And because of Trump and because of DeSantis, the future looks super bright here in Florida. So thank you, DeSantis.

• 1:26:07Speaker 01

  Let's go, let's go to the next story. So we hosted a, the first Florida gubernatorial debate that all the candidates, from Jay Collins to Paul Renner to James Fishback, all agreed to this debate. And yesterday, my guy sent me an article that was written by Florida GOP, which I was a little bit surprised by. And so this story was written, talking about, you know, how others, uh, let me read this to you. You tell me how you take your Republican Party of Florida, clarifies debate report. This is July 7. Humberto, if you can zoom in a little bit, thank you. Go a little bit lower right there. To be clear, the Republican Party of Florida has not sanctioned or agreed to any debates in statewide races. Any discussions that have taken place

• 1:26:52Speaker 01

  were explicitly focused on post-primary negotiations to be conducted with our nominees, their campaigns. And then we look forward to, which is, is this the one? It is unfortunate, okay, there it is. It is unfortunate that a collection of political interest groups and media outlets have attempted to hijack this process for their own publicity and unilaterally dictate the terms to the candidates. Hijack? For their own publicity? I don't like the way this was written. So I responded, and I said the following on Twitter. If you can go to my Twitter account and pull it up, if you wanna go to the tweet and pull up what I said. So I pulled up, and I said this last night, and I tagged the chairman of Florida GOP, because I was a little bit confused.

• 1:27:36Speaker 01

  If you can zoom into, right there, right there. If you make that a little bit bigger so we can read it. So I said, hi, hey, Florida GOP, and Evan Power. Evan Power happens to be the chairman of the Florida GOP. I just saw the statement by the Florida GOP regarding the gubernatorial debate we held. It is unfortunate that a collection of political interest groups, same thing I read to you earlier, hijack. That is not how this works. And I said, for their own publicity, you know, what a weak position. What is your priority? Florida GOP or Florida voters? Or the Florida voters? Maybe you move too slow. Maybe times have changed. Maybe you ought to make the voter the priority, not you losing control of the GOP in Florida.

• 1:28:19Speaker 01

  Maybe you're not aware of how annoyed Florida voters are with you. By the way, why did the candidates agree to do the debate? I personally spoke with every candidate, including Byron Donalds, who chose not to participate due to the lead he has in the polls. All participants agreed to the terms. I don't appreciate this lazy statement by the party. A simple thank you would do. Very disappointed. So now, he responds back on the bottom. If you can zoom in a little bit on what he said, you should read the release. It was about announced general election debates that were not agreed to before the primary. And I said, really? Then what debate were you referring to? And if you go a little bit lower, Sarah Adams right there also responds and says, good you called out the game. They want a coronation for getting, we don't do the BS in Florida.

• 1:29:04Speaker 01

  And then there's a bunch of other people. So then I came back, Tom and I are having a conversation yesterday. And if you can go back to the next tweet, because DeSantis tweets something out of nowhere, which I said, I agree. I'm like, good for DeSantis. Can you zoom in into DeSantis's tweet, which is retweeting a Paul Renner thing? He said, the state GOP has no authority to refuse debates. He's calling out Florida GOP and Evan. Having a debate on Fox News or other widely distributed channels would be a win for the voters. And I said, I agree. So then you can come back and see what we said next. The next thing I said is, an independent credible polling organization should conduct a survey to measure where Florida voters currently stand. If you can zoom in a little bit more.

• 1:29:49Speaker 01

  Ideally, it would be conducted by an established pollster with a demonstrated record of methodol, uh, uh, meth, uh.

• 1:29:57Speaker 09

  Methodology. Methodology, sir.

• 1:30:00Speaker 01

  I was trying to say methodology, rigor and impartiality. I can think of a few with 41 days remaining until the primary updated polling would provide voters and observers with current data on the state of the race. Voters are the customers, not your favorite candidate or a friend. Florida voters, right? And so a bunch of people messaged. And I think there's gonna be probably a poll. We'd like to know where people stand. It seems like they wanna go as quickly to the, to, what do you call it? The general election as possible. But look, Florida people, conservatives are very, very annoyed with the Florida GOP. Tom, where are you at with this? Because I know we had a lot of weird calls last night with some interesting people. What are you saying with this?

• 1:30:38Speaker 09

  By the way, I think we've, some people say you kicked the hornet nest. No, we didn't kick the hornet nest. We kicked progress. And what we did is, we have kicked open the door of transparency. All we did, you know, other widely distributed channels. Well, guess what? Get used to it. That's where new media is. And if we are an other widely distributed channel, according to Ron DeSantis, then thank you very much, Governor. And there's some people that called us last night, they can't say anything out loud. But you go look at these comments, there was also a lot of Florida voters that got a lot of likes. And people that were, you know, organizers in West Palm Beach and things who said, I think you've hit the nail on the head. I thought it was a great debate. I thought it was great what the people got to see.

• 1:31:22Speaker 09

  You didn't see a bunch of cursing and swearing. We saw Florida voters and leadership out there talking about that this was good, that for two things, all the candidates to be seen on stage and all the candidates to be heard for who they are. We're not taking any sides here. We want the voter to take the sides in the ballot box.

• 1:31:40Speaker 01

  Yeah. Yeah, I mean, look, look, I just, I don't like, you know, comments like that. And you just have to realize, times are changing, you know, disruptors are here, the model has changed. We knew the debating model was going to change. And, you know, the amount of compliments we got as the best debate done for people to see both fun, entertaining, and the guy's position. And you know what ended up happening? Nobody knew who Paul Renner was. I was on people are like, I like this Paul Renner guy. Who was Paul Renner?

• 1:32:08Speaker 02

  I didn't.

• 1:32:09Speaker 01

  And it's like, oh, wow. Hey, Jay Collins is more tied with what the prices are in Florida than the other two candidates. That was good for Jay. And then James Fishback, they're like, hey, I like what this young guy has to say. Very clear, very good delivery. Let the audience decide. Maybe you don't like Fishback. Maybe you don't like Collins. Maybe you don't like Renner. But you like somebody and you're like, hey, now I got some options. And if they run this poll and it shows double digits for others, Byron Donalds has committed, he gave his word. He will debate if anybody else hits double digits and let's see if he's going to keep his word. I think he will. And, you know, whoever decides to, you know, whatever decides to happen next, if they do, it's unfair for Florida voters to not get a real debate. And I fully, fully agree with DeSantis

• 1:32:52Speaker 01

  in this situation here. So let me go to the next story. Next one I want to get to is, is Marco Rubio said something, which I wonder how you, I want to run a poll on this because I want to get your reaction as well. Marco Rubio comes out and it's, announcement was made, I want to say yesterday, that moving forward passport pictures you can do online. You no longer need to go to CVS, Walgreens, or UPS to get your pictures. You can simply upload the pictures from the computer on your passport right there. Rubio plans to allow users to upload passport photos using their phones or computers. Okay, here very soon. How do you feel about that, Vinnie? What do you think about that?

• 1:33:31Speaker 02

  I mean, if there's

• 1:33:31Speaker 01

  Is there anything there that's concerning or do you like it?

• 1:33:34Speaker 02

  I mean, two things, Pat. If the technology is up to par where it's like you, I'm just curious, how are they going to prove that it's you? Especially when it comes to international travel. We're not, we have enough problems with this country with people IDs to vote and all this stuff. This is passport, this is international travel. I don't know. I'm very curious to see what the technology is going to be and how they're going to absolutely prove this is me on my phone sending this to you and what system they're going to use. Because other than that, I don't know, it sounds kind of weird. Because we have to go right now. You have to, I went last week with Humberto, Pat. You still have to go in there, a guy has to come around, put you in front of a screen, take a photo, you can't wear a freaking white shirt and have to take it and print it and you'd give it to you and you have to send it in.

• 1:34:16Speaker 02

  It's all, the system needs updating, but I'm very curious to see what this one's going to be.

• 1:34:20Speaker 09

  Well, I think there's going to be a high correlation. I'll tell you why. Your, your face and likeness are tied to your ID on multiple, multiple, multiple photographs every time you go through TSA at an airport. Because about half of the TSA have a photo screen right there. Where you look and you don't even have to scan your boarding pass. You go, like you say, you have clear, you look into the window and they say, yep, this is Tom. You then look at your boarding pass once, now you're all the way through. And when you walk to TSA, you look there and they say, identity confirmed. So you, people that travel, even if you only travel twice a year, you went and saw your friend at spring break and you went and saw your mom at Thanksgiving.

• 1:35:02Speaker 09

  You are probably already in federal databases with your ID that was used to travel commercially. And so a lot of that can be correlated. The devil's in the details. But I think that this is great because it limits the federal bureaucracy a little bit, makes it quicker to update a passport. I know this is a short story, but I won't go into it. But we went through 48 hours of, no, no, 27 hours of sheer hell when Pat's passport was 179 days from expiring. And he was going to Greece and Italy on a, on a sales recognition trip for a previous company. And they're, and they're like, I'm sorry, you're at 180 days or something. We're like, what? You're like, one day.

• 1:35:45Speaker 09

  He had to go to LA. He had to go to this one office. He had to get there at seven in the morning. The bureaucracy was incredible, but you held a valid passport.

• 1:35:53Speaker 01

  So you, you like this idea?

• 1:35:55Speaker 09

  I like this idea because I think that the devil's in the details, that there is going to be already correlation with the TSA travel. What's a passport for? Travel, mostly.

• 1:36:05Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 1:36:05Speaker 09

  But now I think the, the database is going to be used to correlate to ensure who's who.

• 1:36:10Speaker 01

  The people that are voting, it's 50/50, saying yay, nay.

• 1:36:13Speaker 02

  Yeah, so it's right in the middle.

• 1:36:15Speaker 01

  It's right in the middle, which by the way, anytime it's 50/50, it's, it's okay. It's not something that, Adam, where are you at with this?

  I'm with Rubio on this. I would love to see the, the ability to do things from your phone with your two-factor authentication on your phone, whether it's passport, whether it's voting, whatever it may be. At the end of the day, listen, what Rubio has that I don't think a lot of other politicians have is he has trust, he has credibility, and he has the authority. So when he says, hey, I think we're going to do this, I think my gut instinct and I think a lot of people's gut instinct is like, yeah, I'm with Rubio on this. Because I'm not saying he's perfect, but damn, is this guy good. So salute to you, Rubio.

• 1:36:52Speaker 01

  Ken Griffin just came out and he said, if you had to choose between Rubio and Vance, Ken Griffin is choosing Rubio, is what, what he just said yesterday. Okay, Ken Griffin.

• 1:37:00Speaker 10

  And he's worth how many billion?

• 1:37:02Speaker 01

  He's worth 30, 40 billion dollars. He's, he's got some money. He's got some money.

• 1:37:05Speaker 09

  He's the Chicago to New York to Miami Citadel CEO.

• 1:37:09Speaker 01

  So we'll see. We'll see what happened there. We'll see what happened there. Next story I want to get into is the story of New York City schools. Very weird. 900 New York City schools failing students amid great inflation, lax accountability, and a New York City school accused of targeting teachers who blew the whistle on grade inflation. What's grade inflation, some people may ask? Great inflation? I've never heard of great inflation before. Well, let me read it to you what great inflation is. So this is a 10-year teacher, English teacher at Information Technology High School in Queens has filed, filed a lawsuit alleging schools administrators retaliated against her after she exposed what she describes as a pattern

• 1:37:54Speaker 01

  of great manipulation and improper placement of students in advanced placement classes. Susan Muzafar alleges administrators charged a, changed the students failing AP English grade to a passing one without notifying her. Despite union rules requiring teachers to be informed about grade changes, the lawsuit claims that the incident reflects a broader practice of enrollment, unqualified students in AP classes and awarding unearned passing grades. According to the complaint, the student failed the course after earning low scores throughout the year and also failed a week-long boot camp Muzafar offered as a final opportunity to complete missing work. After she entered a failing grade, an unidentified administrator allegedly accused her

• 1:38:37Speaker 01

  electronic grade book more than 40 times before changing the grade. Muzafar reported the concerns internally and to the college board and New York City Special Commissioner of School Investigators. She alleges the school then retaliated by issuing disciplinary letters, removing her from leadership assignments that provided additional income and given her poor performance evaluations. The lawsuit also claims Principal James Woods Powell accused Muzafar of curbing grades during a meeting in March of 2026, triggering a panic attack that forced her to leave work. Tom, why is this a big story?

• 1:39:08Speaker 09

  This is a big story because let me tell you how grade inflation works. Okay, Vinnie.

• 1:39:13Speaker 02

  Uh-uh.

• 1:39:13Speaker 09

  Hey, we need to get, no, no, no, Vinnie.

• 1:39:17Speaker 10

  Love you, Vinnie.

• 1:39:18Speaker 01

  Let me get my pen, Pat.

• 1:39:19Speaker 09

  No, no, no.

• 1:39:19Speaker 10

  Some quick math for you.

• 1:39:20Speaker 09

  No, no, no, no. Vinnie, listen, the state gives us money for every student that passes.

• 1:39:26Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 1:39:26Speaker 09

  We can't have students failing because it lists us as a, as a a school that doesn't pass kids. We can't do that here in New York.

• 1:39:35Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 1:39:36Speaker 09

  And so you're asking me, what do we do about it?

• 1:39:37Speaker 02

  What do we do, Tom?

• 1:39:38Speaker 09

  Listen, we just got to give them the grades and if they, even if they're not qualified, slip them into an AP, they'll get like,

• 1:39:44Speaker 02

  Tom, but they're really dumb. They're really dumb.

• 1:39:46Speaker 09

  That's okay.

• 1:39:47Speaker 02

  I asked the girl two plus two and she said chicken.

• 1:39:49Speaker 09

  Do you know what? Then, then give her an A in biology.

• 1:39:52Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 1:39:53Speaker 09

  So basically what we do is we're going to give these, we're going to pass these kids through.

• 1:39:58Speaker 02

  All right.

• 1:39:59Speaker 09

  And then guess what happens? The state issues the standardized test. The standardized tests are given once a year, twice a year in class. But guess what, Vinnie? Those, those grades go to the state and they go to nationally. It doesn't affect the grade book or, or just promoting the kids the next grade level. Let's just do it.

• 1:40:18Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 1:40:19Speaker 09

  You say, but what about the kids for, for college? But that's not our problem. Let them go take the SAT and get a 1,000 on the SAT. That's, that's after us. But we, we need to get the money per kid. I'm not dealing with this. These kids have issues at home. It's not my problem. Let's just inflate the grades, send them through the system. And then they take the standardized test and the standardized says, New York drops from 21st to 28th place. But that's the local schools. They don't care. They have their tax money and the union protects the teachers' jobs. The teachers keep working and keep getting their raises. And there's good teachers in there trying to make a difference. Like this one, who gets her butt kicked by the administration, trying to do the right thing and saying,

• 1:41:02Speaker 09

  let's make sure the kids are ready to take standardized tests. Let's make sure they're ready to take, oh, the ACT, the SAT. Let's make sure they're ready for tomorrow. And they're like, stop, back off. You know what, Pat? This was happening 22 years ago at LA Unified and Kim was still working there. She left LA Unified 22 years ago. Right before she got pregnant with Bailey, who's 20 years old now. And this has been going on for a while. Pass them through the system and, and let the standardized test, yeah, whatever. Pass them through the system. And you can't move the union, you can't move their leadership and the losers are the kids.

• 1:41:38Speaker 01

  The losers are the kids. Yeah. And by the way, this goes to a story which, which I almost couldn't believe it at first when I saw the story. Tell me how dumb of an idea this is, or maybe you may say this is a great idea. So in California,

• 1:41:53Speaker 01

  So activists are proposing for California to have a class, which page is that on by the way? The activist, uh, California, is it addendum? This, this is gonna be the, one of the weirdest stories.

• 1:42:06Speaker 09

  Addendum fifteen, I think?

• 1:42:07Speaker 01

  Where you're gonna say, there's no way this is true, but it is true. Let me read it to you. Activists demand black English be pushed on kids in California preschools.

• 1:42:16Speaker 09

  Preschools?

• 1:42:17Speaker 02

  What?

• 1:42:17Speaker 09

  Learning to talk.

• 1:42:18Speaker 01

  What is black English? What is black English to be pushed? By the way, how racist is this? I mean, I'm really trying to see like, what, what angle do you want to take with this? Let me read it to you. Activists are pushing black English to be legitimized in preschools as a way to build children's literacy skills in California. Black Californians United for Early Care and Education is part of a movement challenging harmful language hierarchies and affirming black language as a legitimate, rule governed language rooted in black history, culture and community. Movement also seeks to address how language bias shows up in early learning spaces and how it can be dismantled. I don't want my son to walk around in any room and feel like his voice is not valued

• 1:43:00Speaker 01

  or his perspective cannot be heard because he is not saying it one way or the other. Black East co-founder Ashley Williams told PBS, she also remembered how speaking black English is full of slangs and grammatical error, error, so it came with a lot of embarrassment. So learn to speak, like I used to speak English, you know, I'm still learning English till today, right? English is my fifth language. But can you imagine it's like, no, it's your fault, listeners, for my bad English. It's not my fault. Allow me to speak Assyrian, Armenian, Farsi, German, English as a fifth language. You know, wait, you need to adjust to me, not me adjust to you. It's a little weird. Tom, how ridiculous of a story is this?

  Well, um, I think this is beyond ridiculous. This is setting kids back and we can make all the jokes about it, about, you know, okay, now I understand why preschoolers in California walk up to me and say honky cracker, redneck. Um, but that's, people make the jokes about it. But this is setting kids back. You're setting kids back who are just learning regular English. Every kid that comes to America, and by the way, the, we can talk about this for a while. Have you met kids from India that went to IIT and then they come over here? They, some of them speak English with a British accent and speak better English than we do. Um, more enunciated, appropriate with a wider vocabulary.

• 1:46:50Speaker 09

  And now you're telling me you want to take a preschooler and basically allow them to speak in slangs and colloquials and then run them through the system? And now they're gonna say, wow, you know, going to get a job and it's at age 16, you know, and you need to communicate with everybody that comes through there, including, you know, the people from Mexico and California that are trying to learn English so that they can go do things. You know, it just, it just, it just really frustrates me, Pat. It's like, these are activists looking for something to do.

• 1:47:23Speaker 01

  What is black English though, Tom? What is black English? Like, okay, so I just asked, can you ask Chad GBT what is black English and what the activists are saying?

• 1:47:31Speaker 09

  Was it also called Ebonics?

• 1:47:32Speaker 01

  Here's what it says. Black English is a variety of English that developed with African-American communities over hundreds of years. Linguists generally describe it as rule governed dialect with its own grammatical vocabulary pronunciation patterns and history. So for example, examples of features often associated with AAE. You know what AAE is? AAE is African-American vernacular English. Okay, here we go. He be working. Now that's what it says. This is Chad GBT saying it. Don't get upset at me.

• 1:48:01Speaker 09

  Double negative.

• 1:48:02Speaker 01

  In AAE, be can indicate a repeated or habitual action, like he regularly works. Number two, she been finished.

• 1:48:10Speaker 09

  I love Fina.

• 1:48:11Speaker 01

  That's what Chad GBT is telling me. She been finished can mean she finished something a long time ago and results still matters. They my friends. They my friends.

• 1:48:24Speaker 09

  So save time by eliminating prepositions.

• 1:48:27Speaker 01

  This Chad GBT is very racist today, or it's like, they my friends. AAE may omit the verb are in some contexts. Standard English is they are my friends, but they my friends. She been finished. He be working. Vocabulary and expressions are entered mainstream culture like lit, woke, Fina. Fina spent F I N N A.

• 1:48:47Speaker 02

  I'm finna bounce.

• 1:48:48Speaker 01

  Yeah. Bay, I don't even know what bay is.

• 1:48:50Speaker 02

  Hey, babe, hey.

• 1:48:51Speaker 09

  I'll tell you, bay, that's like your lady.

• 1:48:52Speaker 01

  Okay.

• 1:48:53Speaker 09

  My bay.

• 1:48:53Speaker 01

  Shade, shade. Okay, if you want me, if the audience wants to keep learning, I can keep teaching because I got a lot of stuff here that I can go through, but I'll pause because at one point this could be an online course that, that somebody can put up and who knows, maybe the right audience, uh, you know, he be working, you know, it's something, somebody.

• 1:49:12Speaker 09

  He be working.

• 1:49:12Speaker 02

  You better work, Pat.

• 1:49:14Speaker 01

  This is serious stuff?

• 1:49:15Speaker 02

  Can I be real with you?

• 1:49:15Speaker 01

  Is this a joke or is this real? I remember when I first came to the States, I had a hard time saying government. They put a freaking N in there.

• 1:49:23Speaker 02

  For no reason.

• 1:49:24Speaker 01

  I had a hard time saying Gilligan's Island because that's the show we would watch. Gilligan's Island.

• 1:49:29Speaker 09

  The Zognum.

• 1:49:30Speaker 01

  You know, and then what was it? Wednesday, it was Wedensday, Wednesday. Take the freaking any out.

• 1:49:35Speaker 02

  Yeah, for no reason.

• 1:49:36Speaker 09

  You saw Gilligan's Island?

• 1:49:39Speaker 01

  Yeah, Gilligan's Island.

• 1:49:40Speaker 09

  Did you ever have a little buddy?

• 1:49:41Speaker 01

  What do you mean?

• 1:49:42Speaker 09

  The skipper? You always called Gilligan the little buddy?

• 1:49:45Speaker 01

  Thirty years ago. So, I don't know. Uh, do you take the story seriously or is this just like a, this is a real story, New York Post apparently.

• 1:49:51Speaker 02

  Can I be, can I be real, PB?

• 1:49:53Speaker 09

  Hope not, Pat.

• 1:49:54Speaker 02

  I ain't tripping about this story, fam. Everybody want to be arguing California got 99 problems and black English ain't one. It's a homeless.

• 1:50:03Speaker 09

  We can joke about it, but I don't think it's a joke.

• 1:50:05Speaker 02

  No, I'm gonna joke about it, but Tom, Tom, hold on, we're talking about preschoolers. Like, we're talking about preschoolers, like a preschooler letting like, hey, I'm finna take a nap, bitch. You don't want a preschool kid talking like that. And like, like, here's the thing.

• 1:50:15Speaker 01

  It's a little offensive what you're saying right now.

• 1:50:17Speaker 02

  Well, it's, guess what? Then stop trying to change the English. Then here's my thing, are you gonna test them on the black English part and then other kids gonna get in trouble because they don't understand what they're saying? It's so stupid for Calif, but this is California. I'm not surprised, Pat. I'm not surprised that this is what California.

• 1:50:31Speaker 01

  Can I tell you something?

• 1:50:32Speaker 09

  I'm about to light up.

• 1:50:33Speaker 01

  I, I, I bet you 80, 90% of African-Americans are offended by this story.

• 1:50:39Speaker 02

  I, I, what do you mean, no?

• 1:50:41Speaker 01

  I can tell you 80 plus percent are offended by this story.

• 1:50:45Speaker 02

  Adam, you don't.

• 1:50:45Speaker 09

  Oh, you mean like offended that they're gonna be teaching black English in school?

• 1:50:48Speaker 01

  Yeah, like, what are you talking about?

• 1:50:50Speaker 02

  The hell are you talking about?

• 1:50:51Speaker 01

  You freaking insulting me like this is, you know, what they're talking about. Adam, any thoughts on this?

• 1:50:56Speaker 09

  I mean, this is just double M, double dumb dumb. I mean, anyone who, if you're raising a child, you want your child to speak English in America and be accomplished and actually be taken seriously. No wonder so many parents are putting their kids in private school or homeschooling because if this is the story coming out of preschools, public preschools, Lord have mercy. So I don't think it should be a, uh, an issue to say English is the law of the land, not black English, not Ebonics, not anything like that. The national anthem is the anthem of the land, not the black national anthem. The constitution is the law of the land, not Sharia law, sorry, ma'am Donnie. You know, respect the flag, salute the flag, don't disrespect the flag.

• 1:51:40Speaker 09

  These are basic things, guys. Let's get it together, huh?

• 1:51:43Speaker 01

  All right, let's go to the next story. Next story I want to get into is European cars. If you guys haven't seen the story, it's a little weird story that's going viral. Is European cars now must track driver's eye movement in the name of safety? You have a video on this? Do you have a clip on this? European cars now must track driver's eye movement in the name of safety. So imagine you're driving a car and there's a camera that's watching you to see if you're falling asleep or not, or maybe you're on your phone.

• 1:52:12Speaker 09

  And where's it going? And where's that?

• 1:52:13Speaker 01

  This report goes to them. It became mandatory on Tuesday.

• 1:52:17Speaker 09

  What?

• 1:52:18Speaker 01

  For citizens of the EU's 27 member states to allow their cars to track their movements.

• 1:52:25Speaker 01

  Using AI, the European Union's general safety regulation mandated advanced driver distraction warning systems that track drivers' body movements such as eye and head movements in every new vehicle sold after July 7, according to Access News Wire. This is a driver support system, Martin Krantz, CEO and founder of Swedish AI company, Smart. I told the Daily Caller News Foundation in an interview, it's a life-saving technology. It really helps to prevent accidents. It's probably gonna be just like with the seatbelt and the airbag. I, Smart Eye is one of the leading suppliers of eye tracking and driver monitoring AI that is compliant and AD, with ADW systems, this tracking quite, has quite a high accuracy.

• 1:53:09Speaker 01

  So if you sit in your car and you're driving your car and the speedo, and then you look at the speedometer, then what happens is that tracking realizes that this is the speedometer that you're looking at, and then you're allowed to take your eyes away from the road for a certain time period, let's say, for example, two seconds. You have a time that you can spend on different objects in your car. Cellphone use while driving is forbidden thing to do in most jurisdictions. Then it can warn immediately, keep your eyes on the road. Basically, it's actually illegal to do that. He told the DCNF. And then if you, for example, spend time on the navigation display or on the radio, that's also allowed, but not for too long. Eventually, it will tell you to move your back attention on the road. You have different distraction limits.

• 1:53:54Speaker 01

  They have a distraction limits on the speed. No one's going to call the authorities and no one's going to tell you and send along to the police or anything like that, but it's going to be different for different carmakers. Tom, I don't know about this. How do you feel about this?

• 1:54:09Speaker 09

  A lot of cars already have it. Mercedes already had it, even on their lowest basic, the Mercedes Cs and the ones. They've had it, and I think other manufacturers have had it, and they call it dozing or tiredness warning, or they go beep beep beep, you know, driver alertness warning. Mercedes will do that.

• 1:54:27Speaker 01

  So this doesn't bother you?

• 1:54:28Speaker 09

  So, well, no, but I think what they're doing is they're mandating what has been a safety feature on many different cars, and it doesn't really bother me because I think it is a safety feature. Now then, however, if it ever goes from warning to insurance, that's where it's gonna go, guys, that's where it's gonna go. We're gonna go from warning to insurance data, the same way now that you can plug the little sensor in to your car and it'll detect how often you're over the speed limit, how fast you brake, how hard you brake, how fast you accelerate, all of that to determine your crash risk, so that you can be underwritten.

• 1:55:03Speaker 01

  Are you for this? You think this is good?

• 1:55:05Speaker 09

  I'm against the legislation, but I like the feature in more cars, because like early tension on seatbelts, the early braking, or the, you know, the beep beep and your car hits the brakes a little bit, that saves lives, and I think those features are good. But what concerns me is the full loop here, Pat. This will go to law enforcement, this will ultimately

• 1:55:27Speaker 01

  For sure.

• 1:55:27Speaker 09

  go to insurance, and then it's gonna be, well, wait a minute, if I have a good driving record, yet you think I've looked down too many times, you're gonna re-rate me? Now I got a problem with it.

• 1:55:38Speaker 01

  Well, that is gonna happen.

• 1:55:40Speaker 09

  I know.

• 1:55:40Speaker 01

  It's eventually gonna lead into that. And by the way, if they're watching, do you think they're also listening?

• 1:55:46Speaker 02

  Absol, at 100%.

• 1:55:48Speaker 01

  You think so?

• 1:55:49Speaker 02

  Pat, I love that you brought that up. If you don't, it started in the streets with the cameras, now it's in your car, they're lit, but, and where are they sending that all the time? You made a great point. You know they're sharing it with all their government agencies to find out who you are. I get the safe, but that's how they sell you. They sell you with safety, it's in the street, it's in your car.

• 1:56:06Speaker 01

  Or the children.

• 1:56:07Speaker 02

  Next thing, it's in your, it's in your house, it's over here, and next thing you know, it's gonna be China. China, you walk around, Pat, and if your face, and then they'll, they'll grab your face and they'll charge you for a ticket, and they're having so many freaking problems over there because it's, it's surveillance state to the T. I don't, I don't like it, because you don't know who the hell's taking this information and what they're doing. Going back to your point, the airport, airport, Tom, you know that face scan? You could deny that, that's not mandatory. Every single time I go to the airport and they ask for that thing, I go, I don't want that. They go, oh, okay, then go around. You're willingly giving them this, this, this data every time. So when it comes to this, no, Pat, this is just another way where like, no, no, no, it's for your crashing, and Jake made a good point, for texting and driving or sleeping, that's the way they come in, and then guess what? They have your face, they have everything, and they're listening to every single thing that you say. I don't like it.

• 1:56:52Speaker 02

  I don't want the government in my freaking car, in my house, in the street, wherever the hell I am, I'm, I'm, they're watching.

• 1:56:58Speaker 01

  So let me ask you, do you think it'll get to a point, so let's just say they're listening, that if you go like this, they'll give you a wreck car?

• 1:57:05Speaker 09

  The car stops. They go, you're saying something racist.

• 1:57:08Speaker 01

  Vinnie, did you hear? Fuck, take it, take the car, suspend it and pound it.

• 1:57:14Speaker 09

  I'm gonna sell small baseball mitts for people who are driving, so you can put it up in front of you, like you're having a conference at the mound with the catcher.

• 1:57:23Speaker 01

  Or you mess with it. You just say, you know, like the Eddie Murphy that won movies in?

• 1:57:28Speaker 02

  Yeah, what was that?

• 1:57:30Speaker 01

  Moves the lips where you don't hear the words. Not Eddie Murphy, it's somebody else that's doing it. He be working, it was, I'm trying to see which one it was.

• 1:57:38Speaker 09

  You invent some crazy language while you're driving.

• 1:57:41Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:57:41Speaker 09

  What's he saying?

• 1:57:42Speaker 01

  Adam, I really don't wanna come to you with this story, because you have no moral authority on this story.

• 1:57:46Speaker 02

  Yeah, you don't even know what a car is.

• 1:57:47Speaker 10

  I was just gonna say, Pat, I was just gonna say, this ain't my story, I'm gonna let the car experts debate this, you guys got this.

• 1:57:54Speaker 01

  This is, this isn't, this isn't for you, buddy. You're gonna be okay.

• 1:57:57Speaker 10

  The same for me.

• 1:57:57Speaker 01

  Let me, let me give you guys.

• 1:57:58Speaker 10

  When an Uber story comes up, you know who to call, okay?

• 1:58:01Speaker 01

  Let me tell you this next story here with Planned Parenthood. Did you guys see this Planned Parenthood story or no?

• 1:58:05Speaker 09

  I did not.

• 1:58:06Speaker 01

  Okay, so Planned Parenthood story comes out, what page is this on? I thought I wrote it on a piece of paper on the bottom. Maybe I had it, you know what page that's on? There's a story on Planned Parenthood.

• 1:58:18Speaker 09

  Do an addendum.

• 1:58:20Speaker 01

  Do addendum, but what page on the addendum? Page two. Check this out. Southern California Planned Parenthood says defunding damage will last for years to come. Daily News. They're really taking a hit with this, okay? Let me read it to you. Planned Parenthood affiliates in California can once again bill Medicaid and Medi-Cal for non-abortion healthcare services after one-year federal defunding expired on 4th of July, but leaders say financial and operational damage will take years to reverse. The expiration of federal funding, defunding of Planned Parenthood is welcome news, but the damage it has done to our patients and providers will last for years, says Krista Hollinger, President and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Orange and San Bernardino counties.

• 1:59:02Speaker 01

  The one-year defunding restrictions ended after congressional Republicans failed to extend it amid internal disagreements. During the ban, California affiliates were unable to receive federal reimbursement for services such as birth control, cancer screening, STI testing and treatment, gynecological care and other healthcare provided stuff by Medi-Cal. The Orange County and San Bernardino affiliate laid off 81 employees and permanently closed its Melody Health primary care practice after losing Medicaid reimbursement. Hollinger said there are no plans to reopen the practice despite the funding restoration. Before the ban, Medicaid reimbursement accounted for roughly half of the affiliate's $100 million annual operations budget, more than 80% of patients enrolled in Medi-Cal.

• 1:59:44Speaker 01

  Obviously, this changed statewide, more than 100 Planned Parenthood health centers lost access to the federal reimbursement, resulting in more than $300 million in loss, federal family planning funding, and putting roughly $400 million in annual Medi-Cal revenue at risk. Other affiliates also faced major cutbacks. So this, this is a pretty big number here, Tom, on what happened. By the way, there's a entertainer, I don't know what her name is, she's kind of a big deal, what was the girl's name that said, I'm gonna give 100% of my ticket sales to, what's her name, Olivia something, Olivia, what is it?

• 2:00:19Speaker 09

  Rodrigo?

• 2:00:20Speaker 01

  Olivia Rodrigo said she is giving 100%, Olivia Rodrigo stands against Trump as she raises money for Planned Parenthood after defunding, and she's saying she's gonna give 100% of her tickets to Planned Parenthood. Tom, how big of a story is this? Planned Parenthood in California?

• 2:00:35Speaker 09

  This is a big story, and I have felt that amongst the services, they always like to list all their services, but the preponderance of services that's offered by Planned Parenthood is abortions, and 40% of the abortions are African Americans, black children, and they are children, they are gifts from God, against a population.

• 2:01:01Speaker 10

  market share of like 15, 16, 14%. So how is it that some people, wonderful black Americans are only 14, 15, 16% of the population, but they're 40% of the abortions? Planned Parenthood has been profiting off the enablement of a black genocide for decades. Period. And when I see also, and go back to this education story for a split second, and I see them that they want to teach like this, I see the hands of liberalism trying to keep the black population down. That's what I see, and it angers me, and I love it. Anything that interrupts Planned Parenthood, I'm in favor of.

• 2:01:43Speaker 10

  Because the origins of it, the racist origins of it, and to interrupt them in any way with what they're doing, and they're always going to come back. We provide health services, we do this, we do that. Maybe you do, but the majority of what you do and your reason to be in business is abortion.

• 2:02:00Speaker 02

  I don't even want to add anything else because I think he's saying exactly right. And I think more people need to wake up to the fact that it's murdering babies. Period, end of story. And that rock star girl, she's so proud of herself, Pat, so proud. I'm donating my ticket, my ticket money, yeah, so people can kill their unborn baby.

• 2:02:18Speaker 10

  Does she know if somebody shared the truth about Planned Parenthood? Think about in the liberal music industry, maybe no one's shared the truth with her. Maybe someone needs to share the absolute gospel and the history of it, and maybe she comes back and says, wait a minute, I don't want to support that.

• 2:02:31Speaker 01

  Olivia, can you just minac Tom real quick?

• 2:02:33Speaker 10

  Yes, please do.

• 2:02:35Speaker 01

  Set up a 15 minute call together. He'll break you down for you. He knows the history of this very well. Adam, thoughts?

• 2:02:41Speaker 10

  I'm not anti Planned Parenthood. I'm not pro abortion whatsoever. I don't have a horse in this race. From the research I've done, I know they do a lot of other things. STD checking, birth control, cancer screenings. I think a vast majority of what they do may not be abortions. But a lot of people think, and that Planned Parenthood is synonymous with abortions, and unfortunately, that may be true. Find out the data, but I know they do a lot of things for women. Unfortunately, a lot of people think that all they do are abortions, which is horrible. Not condoning that whatsoever, but I have a feeling they do a lot of other things for women, not just abortions, but check the facts.

• 2:03:25Speaker 02

  But Adam, I'm almost like, if you hear Planned Parenthood, that's where you go to kill your baby. I grew up on the East Coast. That's all I knew girls that were in high school and stuff that would go. Well, it's not the reputation. By the way, the giving away condoms and checking for STDs, yeah, congratulations, but that is the main, if you want a Big Mac, you go to freaking McDonald's. If you want to kill your freaking baby.

• 2:03:48Speaker 10

  You can pull up what they do on ChatGPT, I'm sure.

• 2:03:50Speaker 02

  No, no.

• 2:03:51Speaker 10

  I remember looking at this years ago. I assumed that all they did was abortions. I turned out to be wrong. You can check the data, but I think they do a lot of other things.

• 2:04:00Speaker 02

  Of course, but Adam, you know what overshadows all of it? Killing babies. Like, that's the number one thing. And it's, Adam, it's millions and millions of freaking babies. And he made a great point that, you know how much of the African American community, like, the population would be bigger if it wasn't for them solely? We're talking about millions and millions and millions of more human beings. It's a horrible place.

• 2:04:22Speaker 10

  You've got to be careful with the if only. Because once upon a time, Union Carbide poisoned a lot of people in Bhopal. Oh, those, all those people died in Bhopal, Indian, because of Union Carbide. But Union Carbide does so much more. No, you look, you look at what they're doing and you look at the error of their ways.

• 2:04:41Speaker 01

  This is their founder. Margaret Sanger founded the organization that eventually became Planned Parenthood in the early 20th century. She was pioneering advocate for legal birth control at a time where contraception was largely illegal. However, she also interacted with eugenics movement, which was influential among many academic scientists and reforming during the era. She spoke at conferences organized by eugenic groups, believed that some hereditary diseases and severe disabilities should not be passed on, argued that access to birth control could improve society by reducing poverty and improving maternal health, used language about fitness and unfitness that today is widely regarded as offensive and rooted in eugenic thinking.

• 2:05:22Speaker 01

  The Negro Project most frequently cited evidence in Sanger's Negro Project launched in 1939. The project aimed to expand access to birth control to predominantly black communities in the rural South. Critics argue it was an effort to reduce the black population. Supporters and many historians argue the opposite, that it sought to address high maternal mortality and poor access to healthcare by working with black physicians, nurses, and clergy. An often quoted line from one of Sanger's latter reads, "We do not want to war to get out, that we want to exterminate the Negro population." It's the founder of Planned Parenthood.

• 2:05:56Speaker 02

  FYI.

• 2:05:56Speaker 10

  By the way, this is a liberal spin.

• 2:05:58Speaker 02

  That's a hardcore liberal spin because, yeah, Tom, 1,000% liberal spin. She said what she was trying to do. She said she was trying to wipe people out. That's eugenic.

• 2:06:08Speaker 01

  In 2024, 2025, the Planned Parenthood affiliate is reported providing 434,450 abortions during that period.

• 2:06:17Speaker 02

  Do you know how much they do a day, roughly? 1,900 babies murdered every single day. To hell with the condoms and, okay, you have an STD, whatever, go to the clinic. 1,900 babies, Adam, are killed every day. Every day, almost 1,200 kids are murdered. Period, end of story.

• 2:06:37Speaker 01

  Well, that's the story. That's the story. So if I'm trying to wrap up here with another story before we move on, let's go to the Sunny Houston story. So the view Sunny Houston claims, American flags make her feel unsafe. I don't know if you've seen this clip.

• 2:06:52Speaker 10

  Well, she's living in the wrong country.

• 2:06:54Speaker 01

  The American flag, and this is flags that we're talking about. She feels very unsafe. If you want to play this clip, go ahead.

• 2:07:04Speaker 14

  And I said this on this show many, many years ago, because this is my 10th year on the show, and I said there are times when I walk into a community and I see American flags all over the community, and I suddenly feel unsafe because there is a section of this country that has co-opted the American flag. And they equate being an American or an American flag with white supremacy. And that should never be the symbol of white supremacy, but they have weaponized.

• 2:07:34Speaker 10

  That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

• 2:07:35Speaker 01

  I mean, the fact.

• 2:07:37Speaker 10

  That is the single dumbest thing I have ever heard, Pat, if I could jump in on this one. You're saying that the American flag is synonymous with white supremacy. Maybe if someone's waving the Confederate flag, or a Nazi flag, or maybe a weird tranny flag out there, then we can have this conversation. The American flag, which light is it on right here? Stop it, Sunny. Your brain has melted to the point where you think the American flag is a hate symbol. That's where you're at these days.

• 2:08:04Speaker 01

  At first, I thought, because my ears, I thought she said American something else. I didn't think it was flag.

• 2:08:11Speaker 10

  You thought it was missing the L? The only L that is going on here is Sunny Houston.

• 2:08:15Speaker 01

  How was the LGBT community responding to this?

• 2:08:18Speaker 10

  She was afraid of Richard Simmons.

• 2:08:19Speaker 01

  But she was talking about flag, the American flag. Countries have flags. And by the way, when you see a house, you're driving in a community and you see an American flag, what percentage of the time do you say that's a conservative family right there?

• 2:08:34Speaker 10

  Oh, at this point, it's 100%. It shouldn't be that chance. It should be 50/50.

• 2:08:38Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 2:08:38Speaker 10

  But unfortunately, the Republican Party is synonymous with patriotism. A Democratic Party hates America.

• 2:08:44Speaker 01

  When I see an American flag, I tell myself, there's an 80% chance that's a conservatives' house. Because conservatives are more willing to represent the flag than liberals are. It is so embarrassing. We're like, yeah, you know what? You know, I'm not really that proud. I'm not really that proud when I see an American flag. Stop it, man. Just be proud of, and this is around 4th of July when you're saying this. And she knows better. And by the way, didn't they do something with her ancestry that they found out that her family owned slaves?

• 2:09:18Speaker 10

  Pat, yes. And she was like, oh my God, that's, I didn't know that.

• 2:09:23Speaker 01

  Slave owners. And she was like, not even, she's like, there's no way that's true. There's no way that's true. Which one is it, Sunny Houston? The sense we're slave owners. Go play, press play on this one. Listen to this.

• 2:09:35Speaker 14

  Wow. Wow. I'm a little bit in shock. I just always thought of myself as Puerto Rican, you know, half Puerto Rican. I didn't think I was, uh, my family was originally from Spain and slaveholders.

• 2:09:49Speaker 01

  So how are you feeling?

• 2:09:52Speaker 14

  I feel unsafe around you.

• 2:09:54Speaker 10

  Al Gore has a look for you.

• 2:09:55Speaker 14

  It's actually pretty interesting that, um, my husband and I have shared roots.

• 2:10:01Speaker 10

  Yeah.

• 2:10:02Speaker 14

  So I do appreciate that. Um, and I think it's great for our children to know this information. Um, I guess it's a fact of life that this is how some people made their living.

• 2:10:15Speaker 01

  Changes the narrative.

• 2:10:16Speaker 14

  On the backs of others.

• 2:10:17Speaker 01

  Changes the narrative where your family were slave owners. Slave owners, right? So, I mean, you always have to show the two clips together. So your family, you know, like the proper way to introduce her is the descendants of slave owners. Sonny Hostin, the descendants of slave owners, the descendants of slave owners, a descendant of a slave owner.

• 2:10:35Speaker 14

  Yeah.

• 2:10:36Speaker 01

  I mean, just stop like, you know, you know, the part when you walk around like your crap don't stink, like you're better than everybody else and you know what's right and this holier than thou BS. Knock it off, buddy. Knock it off. And sport an American flag if you live in Amer- what are we showing by the way? What is that a house for sale?

• 2:10:54Speaker 02

  That's her house?

• 2:10:55Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 2:10:56Speaker 10

  Is it a glass house by any chance?

• 2:10:58Speaker 02

  Well, Pat, in regard to your story about the mice and the, she might have slaves then, because if that's coming down from generations.

• 2:11:04Speaker 01

  Oh, you're saying in the basement she may have slaves?

• 2:11:05Speaker 02

  She might have some slaves in the basement because of the mice situation.

• 2:11:08Speaker 01

  I don't think she owns slaves.

• 2:11:09Speaker 10

  Can I give you some data, PBD, because you alluded to this?

• 2:11:12Speaker 01

  What's that?

• 2:11:13Speaker 10

  I'm just gonna give you some data. There was some recent polling out there. I think it was from Gallup. Ninety-three percent of Republicans are extremely proud to be American. Only 1% of Republicans said they had little pride in America. Conversely, only 27% of Democrats and liberals are extremely proud to be American.

• 2:11:33Speaker 01

  This is a Gallup poll.

• 2:11:34Speaker 10

  In fact, 36% are, have little pride to be an American. There's a problem on the left with patriotism and it's not getting any better.

• 2:11:42Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 2:11:43Speaker 02

  But you know what, Lee Pat, and here's the thing, because that's all the, and no wonder why so many of these middle-aged liberal women are just angry and bitter because they're sitting home, watching this disgusting show. It's just all negative, anti-man, anti-America, anti-everything. And the thing is, you love this place, with your million-dollar houses and everything. And like, it's, it's as if, Pat, if I complain that much about this country, I would expect you, as my friend, all of you, to be like, Vinny, maybe you should leave. Maybe you should get, with all your money, no, Adam, I'm dead serious, go somewhere where you're happy. You're clearly not happy here. Rosie O'Donnell at least had the, the, you know, bravery, I don't want to say the word, to leave. Yeah, she's coming

• 2:12:27Speaker 02

  back to make more money with, on the show, but just get the hell out of here. Nobody's holding you hostage.

• 2:12:33Speaker 10

  They have no historical perspective.

• 2:12:34Speaker 02

  You're not a slave here. Sonny hostage.

• 2:12:36Speaker 10

  Yeah, they have no historical perspective. I, hey, PBD, I want to point out a fact for you. Do you remember when you debated all the kids on Jubilee and you found out how much it cost to renounce your citizenship? Do you remember the cost?

• 2:12:48Speaker 01

  It was 25, they lowered it. They lowered it to 2450 or something like that.

• 2:12:52Speaker 10

  It used to be 2,400. Congratulations, everybody hates America. They've reduced the price to $450. Talk about save that money. If you want to leave the country, now's a great time to get a great deal on a one-way trip out of here.

• 2:13:04Speaker 01

  Let's go to this next story. Do we want to do, so let's go into the story with Charlie Kirk, the, the hearing right now that's taking place. One of the most chilling moments was when the judge flinches while watching Charlie Kirk's assassination footage. Have you seen this clip?

• 2:13:20Speaker 02

  I didn't, I haven't.

• 2:13:21Speaker 01

  Okay, so when you see the judge, he's seen, I don't know if he's seen it for the first time, or he just saw it. It looks like he just saw it for the first time. Do you have that clip? I want to give you six facts about what's going on, a story that, uh, obviously, I'm glad this is finally happening, where the stories are going to be covered and everyone's going to find out what's going on. But watch this clip here, Vinny. This is, this is the judge seeing the shooting. Just look at his face, Tom. Check, take a look at this. Watch this. Go for it. Look at his face. Did you see that?

• 2:13:53Speaker 02

  Yeah. Oh, man.

• 2:13:54Speaker 01

  Oh, unbelievable, man. When you see this, like, I mean, obviously, I remember the first time, you're like, don't look at it, don't look at it, don't look at it. Remember when we were at, we were at the event?

• 2:16:35Speaker 02

  The vote.

• 2:16:36Speaker 01

  And you're telling me, don't look at it, because I got to get back on the stage. And I'm like, this was a disturbing thing to see. Six big revelations to come out from the Charlie Kirk murder preliminary hearing so far. Let me read this to you. Uh, let me read this to you here on what we have. Okay, so, number one, surveillance footage. Previously on scene surveillance footage appears to show Tyler Robinson visiting Utah Valley University four times on September 10th. And into the early hours of September 11th, prosecutors say he scouted the campus, left to change clothes, and returned before fatally shooting Charlie Kirk, then came back again at around 12:30 a.m. The footage shows a man prosecutors identify as Robinson walking around campus, including on the roof of the Lowes Center. Defense attorneys argue the video is too distant and unclear to prove

• 2:17:20Speaker 01

  he was carrying a rifle as he left the roof after shoot, after the shooting. DNA evidence. Defense attorneys challenged the FBI's DNA analysis, questioning how the samples were processed and interpreted. FBI analyst Amanda Baker testifies his DNA recovered from the towel wrapped around the alleged murder weapon and from a screwdriver found on the roof matched Robinson and his roommate Lance Twigs. Robinson's accounted for about 95% of the DNA on the towel and 89% on screwdriver, while Twigs accounted for the remainder. Baker testified that the analytical methods used are standard forensic practice. Number three, additional

• 2:18:00Speaker 01

  bullet found on the scene. Investigators found an unfired rifle cartridge on another building, but Agent David Hall testified it was traced to the police officer who was cycled his rifle during the response, because the investigators determined the round was unrelated to the shooting. That location was not prevented, preserved as part of the crime scene. Number four, Tyler Robinson seen limping around the campus. Surveillance footage also shows a man prosecutors identify as Robinson limping while walking toward the Lowe's Center. We've seen this clip. Number five, UVU officer body cam dies on the roof of Lowe's Center. UVU University Officer Chris Bagley testified that his body camera stopped recording just

• 2:18:42Speaker 01

  as he reached the rooftop, where investigators believe the shot was fired because the battery died. And last but not least, the judge visibly flinched, which we just showed, when faced with the video of Charlie Kirk's shot. Tom, your thoughts?

• 2:18:54Speaker 09

  Well, I think we're getting more and more, as long as this isn't tampered with and this is straight, that there was a relationship apparently between the shooter and the shooter's boyfriend, and, number one. Number two, we're seeing, um, absolute, uh, evidence of an individual, not a member of the school, not a student there apparently, of, uh, the phrase, the, the colloquial phrase is casing the joint. Um, we're seeing that. And then, we're also seeing, uh, in, in the walking, to appear to be, on the day of, walking in such a way

• 2:19:37Speaker 09

  that they say that is the way that people would walk, wearing baggy hunting pants or whatever, concealing a weapon. Uh, but we're also seeing the horror of what the jury and the judge are being asked to preside over. No normal person can look at these descriptions and then the actual shooting with a...

• 2:19:58Speaker 10

  I mean, this is a judge. Do you think this judge sees victim photos, autopsy photos from people that have been murdered? Of course he has, unfortunately. That's part of being a judge. We have a murder trial. Here's the body, here's the wounds, and then the coroner testifies to it and gives evidence. That's what I see. I see this really pointing toward, pointing toward, you know, the single shooter and, you know, continuing on that path and then fair-minded people realizing just how horrific, you know, the injury was. And that's looking forward to, I'm not looking forward to like with glee, but I am looking forward

• 2:20:40Speaker 10

  to seeing more evidence so that this trial hopefully can give us a decision once and for all.

• 2:20:46Speaker 02

  Uh, listen, it's, the, the, the main thing is finding out who killed our freaking friend, Charlie Kirk. End of story, full stop. That's it. Him getting justice on finding out who did it. There's a bunch of unanswered questions. This thing just started on Monday. It's obviously gonna take a while to get to the bottom of it. We have quite, like, I hope all the questions, Tom, because obviously it's defense and it's prosecution. I, the videos that they're, they're trying to submit that's edited, I want unedited videos. What happened to the footage that they took from behind Charlie, that camera and, and they took it and gave it to whoever? Digging up the crime scene after there was an assassination, kinda suspect. George Zin, I hope that guy gets brought up. I don't know what, what his involvement is gonna be.

• 2:21:29Speaker 02

  I'm not denying the fact that this Tyler Robinson was involved. I want everybody that was involved with this to face justice. Okay, his furry lover, more DNA from the furry lover on everything except more than him. The cop's body cam, Pat, as police officers, when you're done with your shift, you charge your freaking body cam. For his body cam just to shut off randomly at that moment when it's supposed to be picking up stuff, little suspect. But I want every answer, I want, there's absolutely no way you could tell me, Vincent O'Shaughnessy, that George Zin, the bald, fat guy that stood up right when Charlie was killed, waving a freaking, of, of a handkerchief with his pants down saying, "I'm the killer," didn't have forehand knowledge and he wasn't involved. That's my opinion. There's no way. That means

• 2:22:13Speaker 02

  there was more than one person. That means there was a, it, it was a plan and they were involved. If it's Tyler and it's solely him, I'm not buying it. I want everybody to go down that deserves it. Period.

• 2:22:24Speaker 10

  Adam. Well, to me, it's an open and shut case. Tyler Robinson killed Charlie Kirk and that's the end of it. You guys can go through the semantics of what's gonna happen from here, but I believe that there's two people on trial. You got Tyler Robinson and the loon conspiracy theorists who still think there's something else going on.

• 2:22:41Speaker 02

  So I'm, I'm a conspiracy theorist?

• 2:22:42Speaker 10

  And I hate to break it to you guys, Vinny, allow, allow me to finish, please. Uh, in my opinion, Tyler Robinson will be found guilty and it won't be anybody else. It won't be Egyptian planes. It won't be the French Legion. It won't be Bibi Netanyahu. It'll be Tyler Robinson, cuz that's what happened. And the evidence will show that. And you, we'll, we'll see what happens and we'll see what happens. Go there. For me, there's a couple winners and losers here at the end of the day. The big winner here is gonna be Charlie's legacy. Cuz we can just put this thing in this story, disgusting situation, to rest of what happened. TPUSA, Erica Kirk, Charlie's legacy, and the truth are all gonna be the big winners here. The big losers here are the conspiracy theorists, the people who, you know, I don't know if

• 2:23:24Speaker 10

  you know, but you know, you know who I'm talking about? The people who are profiting off Charlie's desk, telling lies, telling nonsensical, vile myth truths. You know who I'm talking about. So, the big loser ultimately will be America, cuz we lost one of our greatest leaders and our greatest unifiers and synergists. And we've had, I don't know, six to nine months of ridiculous stories and accusations. When the truth will come out, it's Tyler Robinson. We know it's Tyler Robinson and the truth will set you free. And the people who have been spouting lies, you're gonna get everything you deserve eventually.

• 2:23:58Speaker 02

  Adam, so you, but without, well, this is the third day of the trial and you've already wrapped up everything that it was just him.

• 2:24:04Speaker 10

  I said that that's my opinion, Vinny.

• 2:24:05Speaker 02

  No, no, you said, no, no, you said.

• 2:24:08Speaker 10

  Like you gave an opinion about George Zin.

• 2:24:10Speaker 02

  No, no, you said closed case.

• 2:24:12Speaker 10

  And we're talking about Tyler Robinson.

• 2:24:13Speaker 02

  No, no, no, no, let, let, hold on, back up.

• 2:24:14Speaker 10

  I believe that it's an open and closed case.

• 2:24:16Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 2:24:16Speaker 10

  You're still going down rabbit hole lane.

• 2:24:18Speaker 02

  No, Adam, because you're.

• 2:24:19Speaker 10

  And that's fine.

• 2:24:20Speaker 02

  Adam, because you are one of the people that just takes something and you just believe in it's end of story. There is a trial. You don't know nothing about, Adam, you just know what you're hearing online.

• 2:24:30Speaker 10

  Okay.

• 2:24:31Speaker 02

  Let the trial go out.

• 2:24:32Speaker 10

  Oh!

• 2:24:33Speaker 02

  Adam, because you don't care.

• 2:24:34Speaker 10

  The pot just called the kettle black, Vinny.

• 2:24:35Speaker 02

  Adam, can I finish? This is what, when you don't have a good point and you have nothing to defend, you have to talk over, which you constantly do, because you can't stop talking and listen for two seconds.

• 2:24:44Speaker 10

  Go ahead.

• 2:24:45Speaker 02

  Do you, have you followed anything? Have you done any research? Have you even investigated anything? The digging of the freaking assassination, uh, George Zin, do you know anything about any of this, uh, of these people? You can't sit there, cuz you haven't.

• 2:24:57Speaker 10

  No, Vinny, this is my first time hearing the Charlie Kirk story.

• 2:24:59Speaker 02

  Because you're automatically going.

• 2:25:00Speaker 10

  Go ahead.

• 2:25:01Speaker 02

  Yeah, because you.

• 2:25:02Speaker 10

  Enlighten me what everyone hasn't been talking about.

• 2:25:03Speaker 02

  Because you automatically go.

• 2:25:04Speaker 10

  Go ahead, enlighten me.

• 2:25:05Speaker 02

  You automatically go, all these crazy, no, Adam, what about the people that just have regular questions?

• 2:25:10Speaker 10

  Hey, Vinny, why are you getting so defensive?

• 2:25:12Speaker 02

  No, I'm not.

• 2:25:13Speaker 10

  I said conspiracy theorist. I didn't say your name.

• 2:25:14Speaker 02

  No, no, you're saying anybody that's questioning.

• 2:25:16Speaker 10

  Why are you getting defensive, buddy?

• 2:25:17Speaker 02

  No, anybody that's questioning. And that's a mess, Adam.

• 2:25:19Speaker 10

  I didn't say that.

• 2:25:20Speaker 02

  Because you're lumping in.

• 2:25:21Speaker 01

  Vinny, let me ask you this.

• 2:25:22Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:25:23Speaker 01

  Donald Trump Jr., best friends with Charlie Kirk.

• 2:25:25Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:25:26Speaker 01

  Fifteen years, ten years.

• 2:25:27Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:25:28Speaker 01

  Long time. He tweets a day ago, fact, Tyler Robinson was on the Utah Valley University campus four times before the 10th, in the early hours, approximately 12:40 a.m. on September 11th. Major detail no one seems to be talking about. Tyler Robinson was not a student at UVU.

• 2:25:46Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 2:25:47Speaker 01

  How do you process that information?

• 2:25:48Speaker 02

  That means he was doing what Tom was doing, casing, looking, trying to figure out how to kill Charlie. That's 100%. I, I agree with that.

• 2:25:55Speaker 01

  So, so, so let's, let's put this stuff on what you believe, cuz I think the audience kinda probably is gonna wanna know where you stand and where Adam stands.

• 2:26:01Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:26:02Speaker 01

  With that fact, where do you put the percentage that Tyler Robinson is the killer of Charlie Kirk?

• 2:26:09Speaker 02

  If, with bullet forensics and everything, Pat, hang on.

• 2:26:11Speaker 01

  No, no, just with this fact, let me, let me just say the fact. He was on the campus four times between the 10th and the 11th, approximately 12:40 a.m. You know what 12:40 a.m. is? Past midnight.

• 2:26:24Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 2:26:25Speaker 01

  Okay. He's not a student there.

• 2:26:26Speaker 02

  Mm-hmm.

• 2:26:27Speaker 01

  What does this fact do to you?

• 2:26:29Speaker 02

  Fact doing, he was 100% involved in the assassination.

• 2:26:32Speaker 01

  Okay, what percentage do you put that he killed him?

• 2:26:34Speaker 02

  Probably 90%.

• 2:26:36Speaker 01

  Okay, so, so, oh, so.

• 2:26:37Speaker 10

  So what are we talking about?

• 2:26:38Speaker 01

  No, no, no, so, but this is, but by the way, this is the part that it's important to qualify for the audience.

• 2:26:45Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:26:46Speaker 01

  So yours, because Vinny, it comes across that 90% you believe it's not Tyler Robinson. That's not what you're saying.

• 2:26:52Speaker 02

  No.

• 2:26:53Speaker 01

  What you're saying is, I wanna make that additional 10% to 100%. That's all you're saying.

• 2:26:59Speaker 02

  Exactly what I'm saying.

• 2:27:00Speaker 01

  Okay, perfect. But guess what? I think that's a very reasonable position.

• 2:27:03Speaker 02

  Yes, thank you.

• 2:27:04Speaker 01

  Yeah, to me, this is why there's trials.

• 2:27:05Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 2:27:06Speaker 01

  You know, it, it, Adam, you, you have to also give a little bit of credibility to a guy gets up in the middle of it and says, "I'm the shooter," dude, what the hell is that? You can't, and then, and then you know the chances of the guy being at their end of 9/11?

• 2:27:19Speaker 02

  And the Boston bombing.

• 2:27:20Speaker 01

  And the Boston bombing. They, they put a number that's that one in two billion. Who is he? And, and what, and then he was later on tied to some child porn. I don't know what it was, right?

• 2:27:29Speaker 02

  They arrested him for child porn.

• 2:27:30Speaker 01

  So to me, I think, I think.

• 2:27:31Speaker 10

  And then what happened to him?

• 2:27:32Speaker 02

  He's in, well, you tell me.

• 2:27:34Speaker 01

  Well, what, what, what, the, the part of it is, this is why jumping to conclusion creates a lot of chaos and, you know, divides, confuses, all this other stuff. That's why for us, we've been kinda like, if you notice, we're not talking all this stuff with Charlie Kirk until we're going through the trial, because we're about to start learning and we wanna learn for ourselves. That fact, right, prior to that fact, that we all learned, even Don Jr. said, "I haven't been comment on this because he, here's a guy that says, "It's absolutely crazy that you're pushing this and you were friends. You know firearms, you've been hunting, uh, hunting. This is a joke and you're effing sick." A guy says to Don Jr. Don Jr. respond back and says, "Or I wanted to see actual evidence before I opined on it."

• 2:28:17Speaker 02

  Exactly.

• 2:28:18Speaker 01

  Okay, prior to you getting that fact, of him being there four times between September 10th and 11th, what percentage were you at that Tyler Robinson was the shooter? Prior to that. Say you don't know that fact.

• 2:28:28Speaker 02

  If I don't know that he was there.

• 2:28:30Speaker 01

  No, that, this was just released a couple days ago.

• 2:28:32Speaker 02

  Probably 70%.

• 2:28:33Speaker 01

  Oh, so, so, 60%.

• 2:28:34Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:28:35Speaker 01

  So this took you from 60 to 90.

• 2:28:37Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:28:38Speaker 01

  Okay, this is.

• 2:28:39Speaker 02

  Because I'm seeing the videos and I'm seeing him there.

• 2:28:40Speaker 01

  But that's what's great about trials.

• 2:28:41Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 2:28:42Speaker 01

  Show us what's going on. Let's learn. And then let's, let's close the chapter and let's celebrate the guy's life. Let's celebrate his greatness. Let's celebrate all the stuff he did, instead of going, you know, X, Y, Z with all this other stuff that, that, that's taking place. And by the way, the difference between now and, you know, what happened with John F. K. assassination, there's a lot more data, intel, tracking stuff that we can get today that we didn't have before. You know, the, the, these cameras, seeing them moving around, what, we didn't have all this kinda stuff back in the days, what we have today. So, God willing, we'll get to the bottom of it, because this became one of the stories in the conservative, uh, party that created a bit of a division. So I'm just glad these stories are coming out for the whole crew. Not everybody, I don't not

• 2:29:25Speaker 01

  expect anybody, cuz some people need crisis, to continue talking about it. But I'm just glad this is going on and this is taking place. Did you wanna say any final words on this?

• 2:29:33Speaker 02

  No, I just, I, I thank you so, Pat, for clarifying it and just finding out, I think it was him. I want everybody else, if there was the George Zin or whoever was involved, I don't think he did it by himself. I think he did it, but he definitely had a hand, either his lover or George Zin. I think there wasn't.

• 2:29:49Speaker 01

  And by the way, they said that 85% of the.

• 2:29:51Speaker 02

  DNA on the towel was, was him.

• 2:29:53Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 2:29:54Speaker 02

  Was the lover and the gun.

• 2:29:55Speaker 01

  Yeah, and so that means, who knows the, the involvement there, all the other stuff? Anyways, all in all, I'm just glad this is taking place. I trust, uh, I trust our process of getting to the bottom of it. Hopefully, hopefully more of this will happen for trust to go up, not trust to go down. Of course, with social media today, even if they showed everything and showed proof, there's certain people that will still, no matter, with, everything could be 100%. There's still some people that monetize from this continuing.

• 2:30:22Speaker 02

  Of course.

• 2:30:23Speaker 01

  There's some that will monetize from this continuing, but, uh, we need to unify around the idea of let's get the facts. Anyways, gang, uh, another great podcast, lots of stories we covered here with you. We will not be doing a podcast, obviously, tomorrow. We're at two days a week. The next one will be on next Monday.

  Now, more than ever, we need someone on our side. But Rob Whitman? Whitman's votes drove up costs, cut Medicaid, and risked 350,000 Virginians' health care to pay for tax breaks for himself and his donors. He's not on our side. Shannon Taylor will fight corruption, cut taxes, and bring down costs. This November, vote for Shannon Taylor. She's for us. Paid for by HMP, the House Majority PAC dot com.
