Latest / Sid & Friends In The Morning / John Solomon | "Just the News" Founder on Mamdani Tripling Down on His Threat to Arrest Netanyahu
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: I asked BB straight up about whether he was nervous
- 0:04Speaker 1: about this potential Mam Donnie arrest. He laughed about it.
- 0:08Speaker 1: He said, no, of course not. Ma'm donnie should be
- 0:11Speaker 1: worried about condemning the bad people, not people like me
- 0:14Speaker 1: and going at the Hamas and blah blah blah. And
- 0:16Speaker 1: now of course it's turned into a whole major worldwide
- 0:19Speaker 1: story and President Trump got involved yesterday, and Mam Donnie
- 0:23Speaker 1: continues to double down. But the great John Solomon I
- 0:26Speaker 1: was happy to see that Justin News covered the story
- 0:29Speaker 1: and it really did all start right here eight days ago.
- 0:34Speaker 2: How about that? That was pretty important. Yeah, imagine the
- 0:37Speaker 2: craziness of a mayor thinking he'd uses local police to
- 0:41Speaker 2: try to arrest the world later coming for official business
- 0:44Speaker 2: in the United States.
- 0:45Speaker 3: It's almost ludicrous.
- 0:46Speaker 2: But it required getting all the way to the President
- 0:49Speaker 2: of the United States to make clear that this is not
- 0:51Speaker 2: going to happen. Said, great job on this, starting with
- 0:53Speaker 2: a great interview with BIB.
- 0:54Speaker 1: Thank you very much. Coming from me, that means a
- 0:56Speaker 1: lot to me, John, you know, I mean nutsincealed.
- 0:58Speaker 3: He so thank you.
- 0:59Speaker 1: But that was frustrated because why does the media even
- 1:03Speaker 1: give them room in other words, no, the percent is zero.
- 1:06Speaker 1: There's nothing he can do. The ICC, this Jew hating
- 1:10Speaker 1: corrupt court led by this guy who wants to go
- 1:13Speaker 1: up to BB who's got a history with sexual abuse
- 1:17Speaker 1: and all this other stuff. Why even ask the question
- 1:21Speaker 1: about the ICC. There's no room for interpretation. They've got
- 1:25Speaker 1: zero jurisdiction here in New York and in the United States.
- 1:29Speaker 1: So why are these reporters even asking Mamdanie that question?
- 1:34Speaker 2: Well, because they're part of the clique, right, They're part
- 1:36Speaker 2: of the disinformation machine. They're part of the brainwashing machine.
- 1:41Speaker 2: These reporters today don't care about truth. They care about
- 1:45Speaker 2: their personal beliefs and injecting them into every story. And
- 1:48Speaker 2: so you can you see it, and if any of
- 1:51Speaker 2: these stories were legitimate, they point out the very limitations
- 1:55Speaker 2: that you have. We don't recognize the ICC in the
- 1:57Speaker 2: United States. It is considered an illegitimate body on our
- 2:01Speaker 2: US oil. So there is no legal authority for the.
- 2:05Speaker 3: Mayor or NYPD to do these.
- 2:07Speaker 2: Things other than to get some media attention and to
- 2:10Speaker 2: once again played towards the hatred of Jews in Israel
- 2:13Speaker 2: and division in America. That's what these guys live on.
- 2:16Speaker 2: They live on division, and the media gives lots of
- 2:20Speaker 2: oxygen to that division when they give Mandannie's stunts this
- 2:23Speaker 2: level of attention.
- 2:24Speaker 1: And from Momdannie's pretty simple. He's not the smartest guy.
- 2:28Speaker 1: People will tend to talk about how smart he is
- 2:30Speaker 1: because some high school you want to, which is ridiculous.
- 2:32Speaker 1: But he's no dummy either. He's no tummy either. He
- 2:35Speaker 1: knows that he's playing through his party, those TSAs and
- 2:39Speaker 1: an ever growing to hating Democrat party, So it makes
- 2:42Speaker 1: sense for him.
- 2:44Speaker 3: Yeah, oh yeah.
- 2:45Speaker 2: The politics are great for him. The politics are not
- 2:47Speaker 2: great for the country. And I think at the end
- 2:49Speaker 2: of the day, when we play these stunts, we're a
- 2:52Speaker 2: dumber as a nation. We get dumbed down, we lower
- 2:55Speaker 2: our standards, and that's what the media playing in the
- 2:57Speaker 2: gutter of Mondonnie's politics are doing right now. But this
- 3:01Speaker 2: alliance between the media and socialists in America is starting
- 3:05Speaker 2: to create a movement. You're starting to see more of
- 3:07Speaker 2: these DSA players copping up all over the country. It
- 3:11Speaker 2: isn't just Seattle, New York now it's going to come
- 3:13Speaker 2: to the middle of the country. Potentially, they pose a
- 3:16Speaker 2: real threat. This narrative, this hatred, this sort of gutter politics.
- 3:21Speaker 2: It has a really negative effect on our country. And
- 3:24Speaker 2: it's time for middle Americans, people who don't abscribe to
- 3:27Speaker 2: this hatred, who don't ascribe to the notion that America
- 3:29Speaker 2: should be subject to socialism or big government, or to
- 3:32Speaker 2: subject our rights to a bigger government, to stand up
- 3:36Speaker 2: and say we're done.
- 3:36Speaker 3: With this, We're finished.
- 3:37Speaker 2: It's also time for the Democratic Party leaders to stop
- 3:40Speaker 2: being so sheepish and to repudiate some of the things
- 3:43Speaker 2: that are happening in their party on their watch.
- 3:45Speaker 1: Not just socialist but communists. And I'm glad you brought
- 3:48Speaker 1: that up because I'm being constantly with it. Yeah, I'm
- 3:51Speaker 1: being constantly reminded by people that no, no, no, they're
- 3:54Speaker 1: only a small percentage most of the Democrat Party.
- 3:58Speaker 3: You're nuts.
- 3:59Speaker 1: You mentioned a couple of cities. I got news for you, Dearborn, Michigan, Patterson,
- 4:04Speaker 1: New Jersey, parts of Minnesota, not just Somalians, other states
- 4:09Speaker 1: that you never imagine. They're starting to win elections these people.
- 4:12Speaker 1: So it's not a little percentage, and it is growing,
- 4:16Speaker 1: and I think every American should fear that, and not
- 4:19Speaker 1: just kind of sweep but aside like oh, the Democrats
- 4:22Speaker 1: are not going to let it happen. Nonsense, They certainly are.
- 4:26Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 4:26Speaker 2: Listen, Donald Trump said a few weeks ago this creeping movement,
- 4:30Speaker 2: which is now creeping larger and larger by the day,
- 4:33Speaker 2: is an existential threat to the United States. John Fetterman
- 4:36Speaker 2: has been wise to call out and say I won't
- 4:38Speaker 2: stay in my party if this continues. I think that's
- 4:41Speaker 2: the sort of leadership the country needs. Repudiating it, confronting it,
- 4:44Speaker 2: not looking the other way and letting it creep, saying
- 4:47Speaker 2: it's no big deal until it gets to be such
- 4:49Speaker 2: a big part that we have a hard time reversing it.
- 4:52Speaker 2: So I think leaders like President Trump John Fetterman on
- 4:55Speaker 2: this issue particularly, has been very good, and I think
- 4:58Speaker 2: speaking up repudiating it reminded me our children that this
- 5:01Speaker 2: is not what America was built on.
- 5:03Speaker 4: It's such an.
- 5:03Speaker 3: Important moment and we don't have.
- 5:06Speaker 2: A second more to let it go by. It needs
- 5:08Speaker 2: to be at this moment now that people stand up
- 5:10Speaker 2: and say enough, this is silly, this is ridiculous. It's
- 5:12Speaker 2: anathema to the founding of our country.
- 5:15Speaker 1: John Solomon, the Great John Solomon, who's now on this
- 5:18Speaker 1: show just about every week because I think he's tori it.
- 5:20Speaker 3: I really do.
- 5:21Speaker 1: I think you're great, and look, I'm not the smartest
- 5:23Speaker 1: guy in the room, but you gotta admit, John, I've
- 5:25Speaker 1: been right about this Iran thing. I was very angry
- 5:27Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago. People were proclaiming victory, We've
- 5:30Speaker 1: won the doubt. Jones is up and oil is down.
- 5:33Speaker 1: I said, wait a second, Wait a second, the cancer
- 5:36Speaker 1: is still there. It's going to metastasize unless you wipe
- 5:39Speaker 1: it out. And now guess what, oil is going back up.
- 5:43Speaker 1: Gas prices aren't going back up, and we're on the
- 5:46Speaker 1: brink of an all out war. So anybody proclaiming victory
- 5:49Speaker 1: two or three weeks ago that I was getting angry with.
- 5:51Speaker 1: Turns out, John Solomon, I was.
- 5:53Speaker 3: Right, you were. Listen.
- 5:55Speaker 2: We had a conversation a month ago, and I think
- 5:56Speaker 2: we talked about the washer and three peat cycle, that
- 5:58Speaker 2: President John was going to give them a chance, exhaust
- 6:01Speaker 2: all avenues for pursuing peace. But at the end of
- 6:03Speaker 2: the day, trust but verify would probably be the hardest.
- 6:06Speaker 3: Part for Iran.
- 6:07Speaker 2: Iran simply cannot stop acting bad. It only knows how
- 6:11Speaker 2: to act bad, and it is a menace even when
- 6:13Speaker 2: it has fewer military assets. So you know, the President's
- 6:16Speaker 2: done a good job of leveling a lot of their capabilities.
- 6:19Speaker 3: But they're not going to stop acting badly.
- 6:21Speaker 2: That is in their DNA, particularly as long as the
- 6:23Speaker 2: IRGC breeze and lives. The Revolutionary Guard is just built
- 6:28Speaker 2: to do one thing, which is to create havoc across
- 6:30Speaker 2: the world. And until you eliminate them, you give no
- 6:33Speaker 2: chance for the Iranian people to overthrow this radical regime.
- 6:37Speaker 3: Forty seven years.
- 6:37Speaker 4: Of history doesn't flip. Now.
- 6:39Speaker 2: I understand the President's approach. Let's give them every opportunity,
- 6:42Speaker 2: let them hang themselves.
- 6:44Speaker 3: But they have hung themselves. And I think now at the.
- 6:46Speaker 2: End of the day, what's going to happen as the
- 6:48Speaker 2: President's going to unleash weeks and weeks of fury on
- 6:50Speaker 2: them until there is no IRGC, and then they'll see
- 6:53Speaker 2: if the civilians want to take back their government. But
- 6:56Speaker 2: I think that's the path we're on right now.
- 6:59Speaker 1: No, thank you, thank you for saying and thank God
- 7:01Speaker 1: because it's not just about the dust, and it's not
- 7:04Speaker 1: just about oil prices. Because like you just said, John,
- 7:07Speaker 1: you're right. You leave the IRGC in there what have
- 7:10Speaker 1: we got. We got two Americans killed in Jordan, we
- 7:13Speaker 1: got an American killed in Iraq. And I know President
- 7:15Speaker 1: Trump very well, like you do with both bunch of them.
- 7:18Speaker 1: It breaks his heart. It breaks his heart. He's really pissed.
- 7:21Speaker 1: He's really pissed. But this war will never be won.
- 7:25Speaker 1: Don't ever say that again until we have regime change.
- 7:29Speaker 1: I know he doesn't want to do it. I know
- 7:31Speaker 1: Americans don't want to hear that. It's not our job
- 7:33Speaker 1: to do it. But without regime change an Iran, we
- 7:38Speaker 1: never win this war. That's my statement.
- 7:40Speaker 2: Yeah, listen, I think one of the things that the
- 7:42Speaker 2: military and Marco Ruby and others have come to realize
- 7:45Speaker 2: that you can't have regime change as long as the
- 7:47Speaker 2: IRGC has machine guns mowing their citizens down. We saw
- 7:50Speaker 2: that in January. That was the warning sign. So I
- 7:53Speaker 2: think the idea now is you eliminate the IRGC, You
- 7:56Speaker 2: pound them, you take their targeting, and when they're no
- 7:58Speaker 2: longer a force, the people of Iran can go in
- 8:01Speaker 2: and do their own thing. But you got to get
- 8:03Speaker 2: rid of these bad guys. They are ruthless. They will
- 8:06Speaker 2: kill anyone on a moment's notice. There's nothing they won't try.
- 8:09Speaker 2: They're probably trying right now to attack us on our
- 8:11Speaker 2: US oil, So we have to keep our guard high
- 8:13Speaker 2: on that. But the quicker we thin them out, the
- 8:16Speaker 2: quicker regime change can occur from within by the people
- 8:19Speaker 2: of Iran. They want regime change. Getting rid of the
- 8:21Speaker 2: IRGC gets rid of the primary roadblock that has prevented
- 8:25Speaker 2: them from succeeding.
- 8:26Speaker 1: But if we don't get rid of all of them,
- 8:28Speaker 1: how can we really ask these poor people who will
- 8:31Speaker 1: gun down fifty thousand of them murdered in the streets.
- 8:34Speaker 1: They don't have weapons. So are you telling me that
- 8:37Speaker 1: we'll get to the point where the American government will
- 8:39Speaker 1: actually provide Armanian citizens with weapons.
- 8:44Speaker 3: It's a great question, right.
- 8:46Speaker 2: I think there was an there's certainly been a reported
- 8:48Speaker 2: effort that was seemed to have gone sideways, if the
- 8:50Speaker 2: reports are accurate, and the President has hinted that he
- 8:53Speaker 2: had some frustration with that plan. It didn't work out
- 8:55Speaker 2: the way we wanted. I think the elimination of the IRGC,
- 8:59Speaker 2: when you get rid of the command and control, when
- 9:01Speaker 2: you get rid of most of their soldiers and their killers.
- 9:04Speaker 2: Once that threat's gone, I think the civilian leaders have
- 9:08Speaker 2: greater You know, some of the civilian leadership have been
- 9:10Speaker 2: more reasonable in the negotiations. They simply can't control the IRGC.
- 9:14Speaker 2: So I think the idea is you flatten them to
- 9:17Speaker 2: isn't until there isn't a single Revolutionary Guard left. When
- 9:20Speaker 2: that happens, you may not need the weapons.
- 9:22Speaker 4: You may see a consensus in the country.
- 9:24Speaker 3: To just make a change.
- 9:26Speaker 4: But as long as those radical nut jobs and the Revolutionary.
- 9:29Speaker 2: Guard are at with force, you're going to have an
- 9:33Speaker 2: ability to overthrow the country. So I think that's the
- 9:35Speaker 2: key you get rid of them. I don't know if
- 9:36Speaker 2: you need weapons, but you've got to flatten them. That's
- 9:38Speaker 2: the current assessment of talking to the intelligence committees I've
- 9:41Speaker 2: had over the last.
- 9:42Speaker 3: Couple of weeks.
- 9:43Speaker 1: I've been saying for the better part of three months,
- 9:44Speaker 1: you have been saying you've been right, Thank you, tom So.
- 9:48Speaker 1: But the last one for me then is we're all
- 9:50Speaker 1: going to be in September, in Dallas in September for
- 9:52Speaker 1: those couple of days, and you know, we need these
- 9:55Speaker 1: mid terms like a human needs water come November. We
- 9:58Speaker 1: need them bed until this thing is closer to being finished,
- 10:03Speaker 1: like maybe wiping out a bunch of these IRGC members.
- 10:06Speaker 1: How much longer can President Trump? How much longer can
- 10:09Speaker 1: we afford to do this? Before it really John Solomon
- 10:13Speaker 1: bites us in the ass come November.
- 10:16Speaker 2: Well, listen, the gas prices are going back up again,
- 10:18Speaker 2: just like you mentioned, and that always is a destabilizing
- 10:21Speaker 2: effect on the people in power when they're going up
- 10:25Speaker 2: going into an election. The American people seem to have
- 10:27Speaker 2: given the President more runway, more patients than maybe prior presidents,
- 10:31Speaker 2: because they understand what he's doing. They understand that these
- 10:34Speaker 2: guys are bad dudes in iron and they've terrorized us
- 10:37Speaker 2: in the world for forty seven forty eight years. Now,
- 10:39Speaker 2: they're probably giving him more runway. But the President's got
- 10:42Speaker 2: to continue to address day in and day out, the
- 10:45Speaker 2: affordability issue. What you can do in a short time,
- 10:47Speaker 2: the freedom gas that he did the other day to
- 10:49Speaker 2: keep gas low, make sure there's that at goaging on
- 10:53Speaker 2: and constantly message intell the American people this is a
- 10:56Speaker 2: temporary pain for a long term gain.
- 10:58Speaker 3: I think that's the key. I'd like to see the
- 11:01Speaker 3: White House use the podium better.
- 11:03Speaker 2: The President does a fantastic job when he's doing other things,
- 11:06Speaker 2: though that podium should be clicking every day and inside
- 11:09Speaker 2: the White House telling that story. I think they need
- 11:11Speaker 2: to do a better job of messaging off the podium.
- 11:13Speaker 2: It's a very powerful place to get your message out.
- 11:16Speaker 2: I'm not sure they used it effectively enough on this issue.
- 11:18Speaker 1: I agree with you one hundred percent. Messaging is very important.
- 11:22Speaker 1: I really fort he blew an opportunity last Thursday. My
- 11:25Speaker 1: friend the President, I love him, but you know, you
- 11:27Speaker 1: could have talked about how things are improving, but things
- 11:29Speaker 1: are going better instead of spending all that time on
- 11:32Speaker 1: the Chinese and the elections. Last one. Sid Rosenberg thinks
- 11:37Speaker 1: that the Joe Rogan interview hurt JD.
- 11:40Speaker 3: Vans.
- 11:40Speaker 1: Donald Trump Junior thinks that JD. Vance did a great
- 11:45Speaker 1: job and a solid up buying his spot as on
- 11:48Speaker 1: nominee come twenty twenty eight. What does John Solomon think it's.
- 11:53Speaker 2: Going to be a while before we really understand that JD.
- 11:55Speaker 2: Vance is truly the front writer or if Marco Rubio's
- 11:58Speaker 2: becomes They preferred a lot of histories play out between there.
- 12:01Speaker 3: But you see in that.
- 12:02Speaker 2: Response a generational difference, right, Younger Republicans like the JD.
- 12:06Speaker 3: Van style.
- 12:07Speaker 2: Older Republicans like the you know the way Donald Trump.
- 12:10Speaker 3: Is a project.
- 12:11Speaker 1: You're calling me old, John, I know what.
- 12:13Speaker 3: You're right.
- 12:13Speaker 1: I am old. I'll be sixty.
- 12:16Speaker 4: But I do see there's a generational split.
- 12:18Speaker 2: These twenty and thirty somethings that came up with Charlie Kirk.
- 12:21Speaker 2: They have an affection for JD. Vans and it's and
- 12:24Speaker 2: I think that's going to play itself out. History is
- 12:26Speaker 2: going to have a significant role how iron plays out.
- 12:29Speaker 3: How the twenty twenty six election plays out, well, I
- 12:31Speaker 3: have a big bearing on it.
- 12:32Speaker 2: I've always learned that in the summer two and a
- 12:34Speaker 2: half years before the presidential election, we really have no
- 12:37Speaker 2: idea what's going to happen. Did anyone really think in
- 12:39Speaker 2: twenty fourteen Donald Trump would be president in twenty sixteen.
- 12:42Speaker 3: I don't think so, not even him. I think he was.
- 12:46Speaker 1: He was still shocked that night. Listen you all great,
- 12:50Speaker 1: I know, I know you listen. Your family listens. I
- 12:52Speaker 1: love all you.
- 12:52Speaker 3: Guys, so no family listens to you. Guys.
