  Speaker 1: The Rush Hour with James Golden. Entertaining and informative.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
• 0:08
  Speaker 3: We are back with brand new numbers showing the massive
• 0:10
  Speaker 3: turnout of early voters with just less than a week
• 0:12
  Speaker 3: away from the election. More than 33 million Americans have
• 0:16
  Speaker 3: already voted as of 6 a.m. Eastern time. That includes
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: several battleground states that are seeing a huge surge in turnout,
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: like Michigan, where more than a million ballots have already
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: been cast. That surge also includes Texas, where more than
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: 5 million people have already made their decision in these
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: key midterm races, just six days away from the election day.
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: Who are you voting for?
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: Mike Rogers.
• 0:40
  Speaker 5: Why?
• 0:41
  Speaker 6: Because I think that my family and the values that
• 0:44
  Speaker 6: align with conservative people and then also being able to
• 0:47
  Speaker 6: get things done when it comes to all three branches
• 0:49
  Speaker 6: of government is more important.
• 0:51
  Speaker 5: Do you believe people may be wrong if they assume that.
• 0:54
  Speaker 7: All black voters will vote for El-Sayed because he's considered
• 0:58
  Speaker 7: another brown guy?
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: I think that they are.
• 1:00
  Speaker 8: And the reason that I think that it is because
• 1:02
  Speaker 8: it's a lot of black people that are waking up
• 1:04
  Speaker 8: and realizing that voting Democrat does not necessarily mean that
• 1:08
  Speaker 8: it aligns with your values.
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: Aha, that was Chris Cuomo. I think he was surprised
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: with the answer to the question that he posed to
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: that voter in Michigan. And you're seeing a lot of
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: this being reported. El-Sayed has problems inside. Van Jones talked
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: about that yesterday. So anyway, we got that. J.D. Vance
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: had some remarks at a campaign rally about El-Sayed that
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: are interesting. Donald Trump really turned that up on a Tallarico.
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: And then there's a business at the UN. Man, oh man,
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: what a kerfuffle that is. Welcome my friends to the
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: Wednesday edition of Boast Learners, where I shower the fastest
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: hour in American media. And I have a Carlos story.
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: You know, I look for stories that, you know, a
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: Carlos stories. And I have one today. Carlos said, what
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: is it? Oh, you have to wait until the show starts, Carlos,
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: before you find out. And so, Carlos, here's your story.
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: Interested to see your take on this. Taylor Swift's. That's
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: the first two words of the Carlos story today. Taylor
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: Swift's hit maker orders Ed Sheeran to stand the F up.
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: He wants him to cancel the entire tour over this
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: Macklemore business. I can't believe that this is still going on,
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: but it's still making headlines. Grammy-winning producer Jack Antonoff blasted
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: Ed Sheeran from removing Macklemore from his Loop tour. And
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: Antonoff said Sheeran should have canceled his entire tour, performed
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: free concerts... outside venues rather than yield to wealthy stadium owners,
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: et cetera, et cetera. So this public, first of all,
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: free concerts are not free. If anybody understands, and this
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: guy that's Mr. Antonoff, who apparently wrote some hits, a producer,
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: he's one of Taylor Swift's producers and other stars, he
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: ought to know that suggesting that somebody ought to do
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: free concerts is not free. It's the out-of-pocket. The insurance
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: alone is astounding, let alone the tour support, what you
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: need to set it up, set up the venue, even
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: if it is supposedly free. You're talking hundreds and hundreds
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: of thousands, if not millions of dollars, depending on what
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: the audience size is you're expecting. But the idea that
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: this producer... of Taylor Swift would tell Ed Sheeran he
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: needs to stand the F up and cancel his whole
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: tour because McLemore said, I'm out. After Robert Kraft said, no,
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: we're not having that anti-Israeli stuff here at the stadium,
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: which he owns. So, Carlos, this is a Carlos story.
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: What do you think about all of this?
• 4:29
  Speaker 6: I don't think Jack Antonoff understands what it takes to
• 4:31
  Speaker 6: produce a tour.
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: I don't think.
• 4:34
  Speaker 6: He has a band of his own that is not
• 4:36
  Speaker 6: as big. If he wants to do free concerts, he
• 4:37
  Speaker 6: can do free concerts himself. And he should mind his
• 4:43
  Speaker 6: own freaking business, to be honest with you. I love it.
• 4:50
  Speaker 6: You know who this guy is. I know who this
• 4:52
  Speaker 6: guy is, yeah. He's written songs for Harry Styles. He's
• 4:55
  Speaker 6: written songs for a lot of big pop stars. Sure,
• 4:57
  Speaker 6: you're good at writing... Songs, they don't pay you for
• 5:00
  Speaker 6: your opinion, to be honest. And I think, if I'm
• 5:03
  Speaker 6: not mistaken, they're not in the best terms with Taylor
• 5:06
  Speaker 6: Swift lately.
• 5:08
  Speaker 8: Oh.
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: It's like dirt from Carlos here. See? The Carlos stories.
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: They're going to come up. Thank you, Carlos.
• 5:16
  Speaker 6: If someone needs to chime in in a situation like this,
• 5:19
  Speaker 6: it should be another megastar. It should be Taylor Swift herself.
• 5:23
  Speaker 6: We need to hear an actual opinion on something that big.
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: Nice. All right. The Carlos story. Let's get to it.
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: New York Times has a damning, damning story today about
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: this business in Alaska. It prints out over, I think,
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: 12 pages or more. Yes, 12 pages it prints out
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: to inside Democrat secret effort to stack Alaska's ballot for
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: Let me just read a little bit of it, and
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: I can spend a lot more time with this. I'm
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: going to hold on to this story for Princess Diana
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: when I next speak with her. Let's see. In the
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: summer of 2025, a staffer for Mary Patola, the Alaska
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: Democrat who was eyeing a run for Senate, received unusual instructions.
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: She received unusual instructions from the top campaign agents. Find
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: as many people named Dan Sullivan in Alaska as you can.
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: The staff are complied, combing through voter records to produce
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: a list of Dan Sullivan's from across the state. This
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: was no random request. Dan S. Sullivan is the name
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: of the state's Republican senator. And if the Potola, uh,
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: Petola campaign or its allies could track down and persuade
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: another Dan Sullivan to run for Senate, the confusion could
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: cost the Senator crucial votes on the state's unusual four
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: person ballot. Unusual indeed. The plan worked. This spring, a
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: retired teacher from the tiny fishing village, from a tiny
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: fishing village along the Alaska Panhandle, reachable only by air
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: and sea, announced his candidate for Senate. His name was
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: Dan J. Sullivan. The Pelotola campaign had repeatedly denied any
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: involvement in his candidacy, but the Times, and I can't
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: believe they did this, but they have, the New York
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: Times has found, based on interviews and text messages, along
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: with documents prepared for a potential lawsuit against the campaign,
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: that not only did Ms. Patola's team work with people
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: trying to recruit Mr. Sullivan to run for Senate, but
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: the effort was much broader. The group worked to coax
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: other would-be spoilers into the race to dilute the incumbent's
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: support and help catapult the Democrat to victory. The endeavor,
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: which was internally called the Ballot Composition Project, involved secret
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: trips to far-flung Alaskan communities and the appearance of a
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: mysterious Midwestern operative who traversed the state using fake name
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: and made his pitch public. to would-be candidates over beers
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: at brewpubs. It also involved Patola's campaign lawyers, as well
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: as senior aides at the Democrat Senatorial Campaign Committee. They
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: call it the Democratic, but I always call it Democrat
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: because it ticks them off. which directs the party's campaign strategy.
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: So the DSSC was involved in this. The Patola campaign,
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: according to the New York Times, involved with this. And
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: this ballot stacking is common in politics, often considered, generally
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: considered legal, as employed by both parties in Alaska. But
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: this operation, which has not been reported before, reveals the
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: lengths of to which Democrats went to seek the advantage
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: in a Senate race that could control the balance of
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: power in the Senate, of course. And Democrats have been
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: saying that they denied it. Now, this confusion, this is
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: not allowed in other states. Other states, you have laws
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: that say you can't do this. Can't put somebody up
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: with the same name in a purposeful attempt to confuse
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: the voters. All the Democrats typically have the DSCC. Oh,
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: we had no involvement in her campaign. No, Democrats lie.
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: They lie. And these are the same people always lecturing America,
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: always lecturing you about democracy and how much they value.
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: Look at what they do with elections. They want to
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: keep every way possible. Their voter rolls secret. to the
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: point that you have allegations that there are 20,000 undocumented
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: or illegal voters on California's roll, they're still fighting it.
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: They don't want to let anybody see it. They won't
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: purge the dead. From their voter rolls. They are against
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: voter ID. They don't want people to have... In fact, man,
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: Diamond went to vote, made a video. Oh, you can
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: just show up at the polls and you don't have
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: to bring anything with you. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
• 10:50
  Speaker 6: He forgot to say, we will even give you a pen.
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: That's right. And he said, we'll even give you a pen.
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: In his little video. You don't show up with anything.
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: You don't need anything. This is what Democrats are. They
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: always preach about democracy. These people will go through hell
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: and high water to obstruct, to cheat, to disenfranchise as
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: many voters as they can. This is who they are
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: as a party. Which is why every time they bring
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: out Obama or whoever else it is to start talking
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: about democracy and all this, I look at them, they're
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: full of you-know-what. Bull excrement. They're full of it. Everything
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: they do is designed. These phony rank-choiced... Can't jungle primaries
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: of all things and jungle elections that they come up
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: with to ballot harvesting where you can send people out
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: to collect as many ballots as possible ballot boxes in
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: the middle of nowhere. Democrats have done everything they can
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: to make sure there is no integrity in American elections.
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: And you have story after story after story this year
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: about how they are so worried that Donald Trump may
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: do something to interfere with elections. What they're really worried
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: about is that someone will interfere with their plans and
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: to actually make elections safe and secure and cheating-free in
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: the United States of America. That's what their real worry is.
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: This New York Times story, amazing. There's 12 pages of
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: it if you want to read through it. Democrats cheat.
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: It is what they do. They cheat whether they're cheating
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: legally or illegally or whether the cheating is just being unethical.
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: Either way, they cheat. Whether it's just a matter of
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: not being ethical, not having integrity, and that's the level
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: of cheating, or whether it's worse than that. They cheat.
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: That's the way they look at things. They don't want
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: a fair election. They don't want it fair. And if
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: you don't want it fair to me, you cheat. Thank you.
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: Who's this, Carlos?
• 13:28
  Speaker 6: John Bon Jovi.
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah. And you know why we're starting off with John
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: Bon Jovi? Because Desmond Child has a birthday today. He's
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: the American musician, songwriter, producer. 70 top 40 hits, including
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: this one from Bon Jovi. He also wrote Ricky Martin's
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: Livin' La Vida Loca, among others. Very prolific songwriter. Happy
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: birthday to Desmond Child. And he's not telling Ed Sheeran
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: what to do, whether he should cancel his concert or not.
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: He's keeping his mouth shut on that. So really happy birthday.
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: Can you believe I'm defending Ed Sheeran? This really ticked
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: me off. This got to the point that I'm defending
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: Ed Sheeran. We'll be back.
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: The Rush Hour with James Golden, entertaining and informative on
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: the Red Apple Podcast Network.
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: As you heard at the top of the show, those
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: of you that were here at the very beginning of
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: the show, there are over 33 million people have already
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: cast votes, early voting underway. One of the biggest states
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: in the union is one of the places where many
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: votes have been cast, and that's Texas. The campaigning is
• 14:47
  Speaker 4: fast and furious. Donald Trump has done their third trip
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: to Texas so far. He spent three minutes. He spent
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: more than that, but he spent three minutes nailing Tallarico.
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: We don't have time to play that quote right now.
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: He included a video of Tallarico quotes in his presentation today.
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: at the rally that he had in Texas last night.
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: Ted Cruz also on a roll. Listen to Ted Cruz
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: talk about the man who wants to be a senator
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: in Tejas, his Senate partner, James Tallarico.
• 15:22
  Speaker 9: By the way, James Tallarico stood in front of a
• 15:25
  Speaker 9: church and he said, I weep for my whiteness.
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: And I weep.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: For my masculinity.
• 15:46
  Speaker 9: Look, if you were to sit down and make a
• 15:50
  Speaker 9: list of the top 1,000 adjectives to describe James Tallarico,
• 15:57
  Speaker 9: masculine would not be one of them.
• 16:01
  Speaker 10: Ooh.
• 16:03
  Speaker 11: Ooh.
• 16:04
  Speaker 9: Like I'm looking at him thinking, dude, you can bear
• 16:07
  Speaker 9: the weight of your manhood.
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: Oh, that's a strange remark. You can't bear the weight of, look. Yeah,
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: things are getting very tight down there. And we have
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: a lot. Oh, by the way, Marco Rubio was at
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: the Texas rally for the president. They got a huge,
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: huge ovation last night. We have more Angie Milhouse Nixon
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: news coming up. That's the Senate race going on in Florida.
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: I don't think anybody's giving her a chance. You know,
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: she was at a university event, one of these– With
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: a bunch of rappers on stage rapping about murdering people, this, that,
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: and the other. And later on, there was a shooting.
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: And she's out dancing, rapping to all this MF-ing stuff
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: in the rap. MF this, MF that. She's on stage
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: dancing to it. And she wants to be a senator
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: of the United States. It's just disgusting. Anyway, we'll be back.
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: We're going to deal with this UN stuff when we
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: get back, too, so don't go.
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: The Rush Hour with James Golden.
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: Entertaining and informative.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: Go up.
• 17:24
  Speaker 8: This is unreal, the movement in this number. Minus 29.4 billion.
• 17:30
  Speaker 8: We cut it basically in half. We cut it in half.
• 17:33
  Speaker 8: Just consider this. In March, it was 136 billion. Right now,
• 17:39
  Speaker 8: it's a whisker under 30 billion.
• 17:41
  Speaker 12: We haven't been that small in a long time.
• 17:44
  Speaker 8: I don't have enough records here to go back that far,
• 17:47
  Speaker 8: but you're going back a ways.
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: And here's the news on why it moved lower. If
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: you don't know what he's talking about, and you may
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: not from that clip, he's talking about the trade deficit.
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: Under Donald Trump, the trade deficit is now the lowest
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: it has been in 20 years, almost 20 years. March,
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: it was $ 136 billion deficit. Now it's just $ 30 billion.
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: He cut $ 100 billion pretty much off the trade deficit.
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: That is some insider stuff for a lot of people.
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: They don't understand it. But folks, this is amazing. Because
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: what this means is that American manufacturers, American businesses are
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: now having a more level trading field to trade their products.
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: We are not being just washed away with European and
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: Chinese imports. Now, we just played Jerry Lee Lewis because
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: in 2022 on this day, Jerry Lewis passed away. The killer,
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: as he was called. He was described as rock and
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: roll's first great wild man. Also on this day in 1989,
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: Janet Jackson goes to number one. Rhythm Nation 1814 was
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: the album. It was one of only three albums ever
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: to produce seven top 10 US singles. Thriller by Michael Jackson,
• 19:49

• 20:23
  Speaker 4: the movie Dangerous Minds. Starring Michelle Pfeiffer. Boy, was she
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: a looker. She was. Michelle Pfeiffer, back in the day, bro.
• 20:39
  Speaker 8: Fine.
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: Fine. Anyway, ladies and gentlemen, let's get to this U.N. business.
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: Yesterday at the U.N., Mike Walsh, America's U.N. ambassador, cut
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: to was there. They are. Voting at the UN on
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: the supposed embargo to Cuba. Mike Walz said this yesterday.
• 21:12
  Speaker 11: Reagan's warning about corrupt Cuban elites still holds true, and
• 21:17
  Speaker 11: it started many decades ago. Let's start with Castro's two
• 21:24
  Speaker 11: Rolexes that he proudly wore.
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: You're looking at the great revolutionary.
• 21:29
  Speaker 12: What's on his wrist?
• 21:30
  Speaker 11: Two Rolexes worth $ 40, 000 in today's money. According to the
• 21:36
  Speaker 11: regime's own statistics, that would pay for 55 years of
• 21:41
  Speaker 11: an average Cuban wage. It didn't just start with Castro.
• 21:47
  Speaker 11: This is the current Cuban president. Also with a Rolex on.
• 21:55
  Speaker 4: Now that stuff you hear in the background, that... Boom.
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: That's the Cuban delegation starting to bang on their tables
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: when he's exposing how the Cuban leadership operates while the
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: Cuban people are in poverty. Let us continue. He also
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: talked about the private island that they have and their
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: trips to the Mediterranean. Carlos, play those back to back, please.
• 22:24
  Speaker 11: Why settle for mansions by the sea when you can
• 22:26
  Speaker 11: have your own Private island. That's right, the Castro family
• 22:32
  Speaker 11: has their own private island, Cayo Piedra. Again, you can
• 22:37
  Speaker 11: find this if you simply look for it, look beyond
• 22:41
  Speaker 11: your talking points. Take a look at this place, private marina,
• 22:46
  Speaker 11: a yacht, a floating restaurant, lavish guest accommodations, a swimming pool,
• 22:52
  Speaker 11: even a lagoon for pet dolphins. It's right there on
• 22:56
  Speaker 11: the other side of Cuba, on the south side of Cuba.
• 22:58
  Speaker 11: They have another island, by the way, with exotic animals.
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: So he went on to say this.
• 23:07
  Speaker 11: The Castro family gets tired of flaunting its wealth at home.
• 23:10
  Speaker 11: It takes the show on the road. Here is a son, Antonio,
• 23:14
  Speaker 11: vacationing in the Mediterranean. Looks quite comfortable. Maybe Saint-Tropez, southern France.
• 23:25
  Speaker 11: Island hopping on a 50-meter luxury yacht. But when Turkish
• 23:32
  Speaker 11: journalists tried to photograph the great communist prince enjoying himself,
• 23:37
  Speaker 11: his bodyguards attacked the journalists.
• 23:40
  Speaker 12: What did he have to hide?
• 23:41
  Speaker 11: Well, colleagues, if you have any idea, do you have
• 23:44
  Speaker 11: any idea what it takes to fuel something like one
• 23:48
  Speaker 11: of these yachts?
• 23:49
  Speaker 12: How many homes, how many hospitals, how many schools.
• 23:52
  Speaker 11: That you have all lamented today can be fueled by
• 23:55
  Speaker 11: the 50,000 gallons of fuel it takes to put in
• 23:58
  Speaker 11: a yacht like this. 15,000 gallons just for one diesel tank.
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: Now, the Cuban delegation, not happy. So, next cut, this happened,
• 24:13
  Speaker 4: cut 14 at the UN. I'm telling you, this was
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: just so amazing. Well, let's go to the next one.
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: that you have on the other list there, the Cuban
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: ambassador trying to interrupt the US ambassador. They did not
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: like this at the UN. So the Cuban ambassador gets
• 24:34
  Speaker 4: out of his seat. Remember, this is all happening at
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: the UN. They try to approach, they try to approach
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: the podium where U.N. ambassador for the U.S., Mr. Walters,
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: is speaking. And this is what happened then.
• 24:51
  Speaker 11: I appeal to you to listen to me, and I'll
• 24:54
  Speaker 11: ask everyone. And I'm the representative of the United States
• 24:59
  Speaker 11: of America.
• 25:00
  Speaker 10: Back up!
• 25:01
  Speaker 12: Back up, Ambassador.
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: Back away.
• 25:04
  Speaker 12: This isn't Havana. I'm suspending the meeting. You're not going
• 25:07
  Speaker 12: to intimidate me. I'm suspending this meeting. Do you understand
• 25:09
  Speaker 12: who you're dealing with? This is America. Back up.
• 25:13
  Speaker 11: The rule is clear. This is the substance of the speech.
• 25:16
  Speaker 11: There are no procedural... The meeting is suspended. Please sit down.
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: Sit down. So, he was... They threatened him. And apparently
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: the Cuban delegation, one of the guys in there laid
• 25:32
  Speaker 4: hands on an American. And that is, man, I'll tell
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: you what, that is gone. Cut 15. Mike Walters was
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: on Fox News last night to explain what happened after
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: the Cubans got so ticked off that one of their
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: guys laid hands on an American. They tried to interfere
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: with our ambassador to the U.N. Here he is.
• 25:54
  Speaker 12: Just before I came on tonight.
• 25:56
  Speaker 5: Secretary Rubio signed the paperwork to eject the diplomat that
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: thought he could, the Cuban diplomat, the first secretary of
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: their delegation, who shoved and tried to assault one of
• 26:11
  Speaker 5: our American diplomats.
• 26:13
  Speaker 12: He's gone.
• 26:14
  Speaker 11: He is going to be on a plane to Havana
• 26:17
  Speaker 11: within the next 24 hours. You lay a hand on
• 26:20
  Speaker 11: an American here in the United States, President Trump, Secretary Rubio,
• 26:25
  Speaker 11: and myself, we're not going to stand for it.
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: Today at the U.N., cut 16, Mike Waltz had more
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: to say about this entire affair. Here you go.
• 26:38
  Speaker 12: Colleagues, hear me.
• 26:42
  Speaker 11: Your vote today is the only thing standing between the corrupt, kleptocratic,
• 26:51
  Speaker 11: communist regime and using this body and your vote for
• 26:56
  Speaker 11: another propaganda victory at the expense of the Cuban people. Yesterday,
• 27:00
  Speaker 11: I asked three simple questions. Why do Cuba's rulers come
• 27:07
  Speaker 11: to this body and talk about the suffering of the
• 27:12
  Speaker 11: Cuban people Yet, at the height of hypocrisy, enjoy luxury watches, Rolexes, yachts, mansions,
• 27:23
  Speaker 11: and even their own private islands.
• 27:26
  Speaker 12: Again, while the Cuban people starve and sit.
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: In the dark.
• 27:30
  Speaker 11: Why does the military conglomerate, Gaisa, hoard billions while hospitals
• 27:35
  Speaker 11: run out of medicine?
• 27:36
  Speaker 12: And why does Havana treat.
• 27:37
  Speaker 11: Doctors and nurses like slave labor as they send them abroad?
• 27:43
  Speaker 11: And in response, the regime's so-called diplomats responded by pounding
• 27:49
  Speaker 11: their desks, screaming across this chamber, storming the podium, not
• 27:55
  Speaker 11: respecting the sanctity of this institution, and even assaulting an
• 27:58
  Speaker 11: American diplomat.
• 28:01
  Speaker 12: And by the way, that conduct.
• 28:06
  Speaker 11: Is in violation of the host country agreement, and that
• 28:10
  Speaker 11: so-called diplomat today will be put on a plane back
• 28:15
  Speaker 11: to Havana.
• 28:16
  Speaker 12: It is unacceptable.
• 28:17
  Speaker 11: If you lay a hand on an American diplomat in
• 28:21
  Speaker 11: this body, there will be consequences. Today, you just heard
• 28:25
  Speaker 11: the foreign minister spend, I don't know, 30, 40 minutes
• 28:28
  Speaker 11: lecturing us, and he still answered none of those questions.
• 28:32
  Speaker 11: He found plenty of time to blame America. But again,
• 28:36
  Speaker 11: I ask this body, as you consider your vote, this
• 28:38
  Speaker 11: incredibly important.
• 28:39
  Speaker 12: Vote, what are they afraid of?
• 28:44
  Speaker 11: They're afraid of this assembly, the Cuban people and the world,
• 28:48
  Speaker 11: finding out once and for all that there is no
• 28:52
  Speaker 11: blockade and that the plight of the Cuban people is
• 28:56
  Speaker 11: exclusively the fault of this corrupt communist regime.
• 29:00
  Speaker 12: But yet they'll use this body to deflect.
• 29:03
  Speaker 11: You just heard the foreign minister call American sanctions passed
• 29:07
  Speaker 11: by law as an act of war. The foreign minister said, Instead,
• 29:13
  Speaker 11: should look at the facts. The reality is, today as
• 29:16
  Speaker 11: we speak, there is no ring of U.S. Navy warships
• 29:20
  Speaker 11: around Cuba. Their ports are open. In recent months, data
• 29:24
  Speaker 11: shows that shipments have arrived from Belize, from Canada, from Chile,
• 29:29
  Speaker 11: from China, from Colombia, from Mexico, from Russia, from Spain,
• 29:33
  Speaker 11: from Uruguay, from the European Union, from CARICOM, from agencies
• 29:37
  Speaker 11: within the UN, and yes, from the United States, in fact.
• 29:41
  Speaker 11: And as I have stated, consider the facts. In the
• 29:45
  Speaker 11: first eight months of this year, of 2026, American companies
• 29:48
  Speaker 11: have exported nearly a billion dollars of goods, $ 876 million
• 29:55
  Speaker 11: to be exact, to Cuba, including a quarter billion in fuels.
• 29:59
  Speaker 11: America is now the private sector's largest fuel provider. That's
• 30:05
  Speaker 11: what angers Havana and this communist regime.
• 30:09
  Speaker 12: The term private sector. But all of us, I would hope,
• 30:14
  Speaker 12: I would hope, would.
• 30:15
  Speaker 11: Want to see fuel actually reaching the Cuban people, Cuban farmers.
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: Folks, this is why I wanted to play this whole thing.
• 30:22
  Speaker 4: This is important. This is so important. Cuba, these communists,
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: they are living like all social communists do. The leaders
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: are living in lives of luxury, life of the billionaires,
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: while the people suffer and while they blame capitalism for it. Meanwhile,
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: they are stealing what belongs to these people under the
• 30:45
  Speaker 4: name of socialism, under the name of communism. There's no
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: fuel for people to have a decent life. Yet they're
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: running around fueling up their yachts in the Mediterranean at
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: their private islands with their lagoons for the dolphins and
• 30:59
  Speaker 4: their Rolexes. And when he called them out on this
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: in front of the U.N., their response was to get
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: up and try to go physical at the U.N. on
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: the United States of America, in the United States of America.
• 31:14
  Speaker 4: And this administration, the Trump administration, is not having it.
• 31:19
  Speaker 10: Period.
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: End of story. Now, I got two other things. Well,
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: three others. Real quickly. Angie Milhouse Nixon has been asked
• 31:30
  Speaker 4: about this Cuban dictatorship. And she doesn't even know the
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: first thing. She's from Florida. Listen, this is cut 23.
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: Listen to this ridiculous answer she gives when she's asked.
• 31:43
  Speaker 4: Just play it. Go ahead. Do you consider that Cuba
• 31:46
  Speaker 4: is a dictatorship?
• 31:48
  Speaker 11: You know, that is what people have told me.
• 31:50
  Speaker 10: I have never been to Cuba, and so I will
• 31:52
  Speaker 10: have to take their word for it.
• 31:56
  Speaker 4: You know, that's what people have told me. So I
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: guess I have to take their word for it that
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: it's our dictatorship. This woman wants to be a United
• 32:05
  Speaker 4: States senator? Just amazing. You can't even answer a question. Now,
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: listen to this one next. Cut 19, because I want
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: to make a point about this. Cut 19, Representative Angie
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: Milhouse Nixon again.
• 32:21
  Speaker 10: I believe health care is a human right. And yes,
• 32:28
  Speaker 10: that means I support Medicare for all.
• 32:33
  Speaker 12: All right.
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: Now, she supports Medicare for All. You heard El Sayed
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: talk about it. We're hearing this guy, Troy Jackson, talk
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: about it. Now, have you ever heard any of these three?
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: El Sayed, Angie Milhouse Nixon. Troy Jackson or even Bernie
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: or AOC talk about the true cost of it. Look
• 32:54
  Speaker 4: what happens in the rare instance. And I mean rare,
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: rare instance when a media journalist actually does journalism and
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: ask them about the cost of their proposals. Listen to
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: Troy Jackson, who's running to become the next senator from Maine.
• 33:13
  Speaker 4: Listen to his response when asked about the cost of
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: this Medicare for All that he, El-Sayed, AOC, Bernie, Angie
• 33:25
  Speaker 4: Milhouse Nixon all talk about. Listen to this answer.
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: Have you thought about or do you know what the
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: total price tag would be to have Medicare for All,
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: essentially single-payer health insurance?
• 33:37
  Speaker 7: And no, do I know what it's going to cost
• 33:38
  Speaker 7: in overall?
• 33:39
  Speaker 4: No, I don't.
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: But every study that we've had here in.
• 33:42
  Speaker 7: Maine, every study we've had federally has shown that we're
• 33:44
  Speaker 7: already spending the money, way over spending the money for
• 33:48
  Speaker 7: a health care system that I think most everyone agrees
• 33:50
  Speaker 7: is not working for the majority of people.
• 33:53
  Speaker 4: No, I don't know what it costs, but I got
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: a study that says we're already paying the money. What
• 33:59
  Speaker 4: a ridiculous, dumb answer to a very important question. The
• 34:04
  Speaker 4: answer is we're talking trillions of dollars a year in
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: new spending. Elvis Presley, my friends, went back on the
• 34:16
  Speaker 4: Ed Sullivan Show to get a gold record and perform
• 34:20
  Speaker 4: on this day in 1956 for Love Me Tender. Also,
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: in 1957, a year later, Los Angeles, he was out
• 34:29
  Speaker 4: there at the Pan Pacific Auditorium. Police told Elvis Presley
• 34:35
  Speaker 4: he was not allowed to wiggle his hips on the stage.
• 34:42
  Speaker 4: And then the next night, the Los Angeles Vice Squad
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: filmed his concert to see if his hip wiggling was
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: in defiance of the law. We'll be back with Clip
• 34:53
  Speaker 4: of the Day. Don't go away.
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: The Rush Hour with James Golden, entertaining and informative.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
• 35:14
  Speaker 4: The clip of the day, you want to hear it,
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: it's the clip.
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: Of the day.
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: Angie Milhouse Nixon again, here she is.
• 35:25
  Speaker 10: This very nation was founded. on resistance even though we
• 35:32
  Speaker 10: on stolen land but in the founding of this nation
• 35:40
  Speaker 10: they were oppressing us taxation without representation and we matched
• 35:44
  Speaker 10: that oppression with resistance by throwing tea into a.
• 35:47
  Speaker 4: Harbor that's her way of describing the boston tea party Which,
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: by the way, the patriots had dressed up like Indians
• 35:56
  Speaker 4: who they had stolen the land from to do it.
• 35:58
  Speaker 4: So Angie Milhouse Nixon knows a little bit about American history,
• 36:02
  Speaker 4: although the way she frames it and uses it, my friends. Well,
• 36:07
  Speaker 4: there's Angie Milhouse Nixon. And we will be hearing more
• 36:11
  Speaker 4: about that, folks. There's a lot I didn't get to today.
• 36:13
  Speaker 4: This El Sayed business. We're going to head back tomorrow.
• 36:17
  Speaker 4: We are the busiest hour in American media. This U.N.
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: business is important, folks, and that's why we spend so
• 36:23
  Speaker 4: much time with it. We're going to leave you today
• 36:26
  Speaker 4: with Stevie. 15th studio album came out on this day
• 36:31
  Speaker 4: in 1972, and it was huge for him. This marked
• 36:35
  Speaker 4: a different, I mean, he was a star already from Motown.
• 36:40
  Speaker 4: This launched him into superstardom in a way that he's
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: never come down from. The Talking Book album, 1972. 72,
• 36:51
  Speaker 4: You Are the Sunshine of My Life, Superstition was the
• 36:53
  Speaker 4: first single on it. Jeff Beck won that album, his
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: first Grammys from this. May God bless, protect each and
• 37:00
  Speaker 4: every single one of you, your families, your loved ones.
• 37:02
  Speaker 4: Love and gratitude for your being here with me, allowing
• 37:05
  Speaker 4: me to be with you. God willing, back tomorrow for
• 37:11
  Speaker 4: the Thursday edition of Boast and Early's Rush Hour. Until then,
• 37:16
  Speaker 4: my friends, I bid you adieu.
• 37:20
  Speaker 11: Bye.
