Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: I mean, see which Lowry agrees. I don't know. I
- 0:02Speaker 1: know it sounds insensitive because he's one of my best
- 0:04Speaker 1: friends and I love him dearly. But you can't allow
- 0:07Speaker 1: mom Donnie to give you a heart attack. You're a loser. No,
- 0:10Speaker 1: what do you think?
- 0:14Speaker 2: No, that's not winning getting heart attacks because the mom
- 0:16Speaker 2: dom mey. That's definitely not winning.
- 0:17Speaker 1: Right, the best, Right, we wish him the best, but
- 0:19Speaker 1: Mam Donnie's got to get the heart attack. Not not Libato, right,
- 0:24Speaker 1: you said it, You said it. No, I did say it.
- 0:26Speaker 1: I say a lot of stuff that people won't say,
- 0:28Speaker 1: but they all agree, just to ask your Fox News viewers. Anyway,
- 0:32Speaker 1: let's get to this primary day yesterday. You know, I
- 0:35Speaker 1: don't want to start with Osai yet everybody's starting with him.
- 0:38Speaker 1: I got to start with this psycho, this lady Hung,
- 0:42Speaker 1: who is uh, in all likelihood gonna be the next
- 0:44Speaker 1: governor in Wisconsin. She's dsay. She also said that America
- 0:49Speaker 1: should cancel Thanksgiving. Now she's kind of gone back on,
- 0:54Speaker 1: not just a little bit the last couple of weeks,
- 0:56Speaker 1: but she did say that. So we talk about all
- 0:58Speaker 1: these dangerous condidates, it's what about this lady Hang in Wisconsin.
- 1:03Speaker 2: Yeah, she's among the craziest, if not the craziest. And
- 1:06Speaker 2: the thing that's most disturbing about her said, you can
- 1:08Speaker 2: look at mom Donnie, and he's charming. Right, he has
- 1:11Speaker 2: a thousand lots smile. Trump likes him, you know.
- 1:13Speaker 1: People like him Trump Trump. Trump didn't like him so
- 1:16Speaker 1: much yesterday. Did you hear Trump yesterday?
- 1:18Speaker 2: I didn't.
- 1:19Speaker 1: Let's play this quickly for Lowry. This made me happy
- 1:21Speaker 1: because you know, I've been very frustrated with Trump and
- 1:24Speaker 1: I've sent them a million messages to stop it. Stop it,
- 1:27Speaker 1: President Trump. So before we say he likes him, because
- 1:30Speaker 1: his family members tell me he doesn't, He's just playing
- 1:33Speaker 1: a game. Here was Trump on Mam Donnie yesterday. Cut one.
- 1:36Speaker 3: Look, the Mandai thing is, it's a disaster waiting to happen.
- 1:42Speaker 3: We can't have a communist in judge of a great
- 1:45Speaker 3: supposedly free enterprise is kind of a representative city. So
- 1:50Speaker 3: I think it's if you have a communist may I
- 1:53Speaker 3: think it's going to be very tough for him and
- 1:55Speaker 3: for the city.
- 1:59Speaker 1: Oh.
- 1:59Speaker 3: I think it's a shame that that particular man is
- 2:02Speaker 3: endorsing him and very friendly with him. You can see
- 2:04Speaker 3: there's a relationshship.
- 2:06Speaker 1: He blew up the.
- 2:07Speaker 3: World Trade Center right in the man you're talking about
- 2:10Speaker 3: blow up the World tender and he's friends with Vandi.
- 2:13Speaker 1: Well, there it is. He took him out on two fronts,
- 2:15Speaker 1: called them a communist hanging out with a cleric that
- 2:18Speaker 1: was a co conspirator in the World Trade Center bombing.
- 2:21Speaker 1: So maybe Trump is finally starting to come along. Maybe,
- 2:25Speaker 1: but continue your point on Hun. I couldn't wait to
- 2:27Speaker 1: play that Trump stuff.
- 2:28Speaker 2: So, I mean, that's much better from Trump. But the
- 2:31Speaker 2: fact is, Mom Dommie is a charming, charismatic guy, right,
- 2:35Speaker 2: Hong is not. Hong is like the person you meet
- 2:38Speaker 2: at the public library using the computer in the middle
- 2:40Speaker 2: of the day who's socially maladjusted and a soft talker.
- 2:44Speaker 2: There's nothing charming about her at all. Has zero political skills.
- 2:48Speaker 2: So it's that's what makes it so disturbing. It's her
- 2:51Speaker 2: beliefs that are alluring to democrats, and they are crazy.
- 2:55Speaker 2: They're based on a fundamental critique of America. I'm sorry,
- 2:58Speaker 2: if you don't like Thanksgiving, you don't like a mayor America. Right,
- 3:00Speaker 2: it's our national festival where we're grateful for this country.
- 3:03Speaker 2: It has no ideological element whatsoever unless you're a crazy person,
- 3:07Speaker 2: and she's crazy. And she's leading in the polls by
- 3:10Speaker 2: twenty points. Now, maybe that means less than we think
- 3:12Speaker 2: it does, because L. Sied might pull it out in
- 3:16Speaker 2: Michigan there and he was leading by double digits and
- 3:19Speaker 2: he's going to win by a point if he pulls
- 3:21Speaker 2: it out. So maybe the establishment Democrats have more hope
- 3:25Speaker 2: in Wisconsin. But they're definitely on the run in the
- 3:28Speaker 2: tirety of the country and not willing to stand up
- 3:30Speaker 2: for themselves. I mean, Chuck Schumer, for instance, been pathetic.
- 3:33Speaker 1: Pathetic, they all are. And she is gonna win. She's
- 3:36Speaker 1: up by twenty, she's still up by twenty. El Sayed
- 3:38Speaker 1: is gonna win. He's up by three. NBC News already
- 3:42Speaker 1: said he won. Everybody else is slow to react. I mean,
- 3:45Speaker 1: she made it closer, Hayley Stevens, and we thought, but
- 3:48Speaker 1: he's going to win. And you talk about mom Donnie.
- 3:51Speaker 1: I watched this guy. He's Mom Donnie. He looks like him,
- 3:54Speaker 1: he sounds like him. He talks about party unity. He
- 3:58Speaker 1: mashed Trump last night in a very short speech. I mean, really,
- 4:02Speaker 1: what is the difference between L. Sayed. They both hate Israel,
- 4:06Speaker 1: they both hate the Jews, they both hate Babe. What
- 4:08Speaker 1: is the difference between El Sayed and Mamdani.
- 4:11Speaker 2: Yeah, there's no ideological difference, but I do think Mamdami
- 4:15Speaker 2: is more talented than El Sayed, who has more of
- 4:17Speaker 2: a edge to him. And the key difference. Sayed is
- 4:21Speaker 2: not running in New York City. He's running in a
- 4:24Speaker 2: purplish state, and he has a real competitive race on
- 4:27Speaker 2: his hands. And this instantly makes Michigan the most likely
- 4:30Speaker 2: pick up for Republicans on the Senate map. And if
- 4:33Speaker 2: they can get Michigan, the map almost becomes impossible for Democrats.
- 4:37Speaker 2: So this is a hugely risky choice besides being a
- 4:40Speaker 2: mortally defective one by the Democrats in Michigan.
- 4:43Speaker 1: So just help me out here, then, So you're saying
- 4:45Speaker 1: that El Sayed wins, okay, and he moves away from
- 4:49Speaker 1: the moderate Democrats. This is good for Republicans come November.
- 4:54Speaker 2: It's certainly good for their chances. Rogers has now a
- 4:57Speaker 2: much better chance of winning than he did against Stevens,
- 5:01Speaker 2: and if Republicans just pick up one seat, Democrats almost
- 5:05Speaker 2: have to sweep these red states Texas, Iowa, Alaska, Ohio
- 5:10Speaker 2: and maybe they can, you know, maybe it's the year
- 5:12Speaker 2: everything will tilt their way. But it gets a lot harder.
- 5:16Speaker 1: Here we go. Rich an armed California man was at
- 5:20Speaker 1: Trump International Golf Club yesterday and he had a lot
- 5:23Speaker 1: of weapons, a lot of ammunition, much more than the
- 5:27Speaker 1: guy on the golf course, much more than the guy
- 5:29Speaker 1: who tried to run through security at the hotel, even
- 5:33Speaker 1: more than crooks. This guy from California was loaded magazines,
- 5:37Speaker 1: and he had all kinds of stuff in his body,
- 5:40Speaker 1: in his car, in his house, and there he was
- 5:43Speaker 1: at the Trump National Golf Club. But how was he
- 5:46Speaker 1: doing there? I don't mean there's any doubt he was,
- 5:48Speaker 1: you know, kind of scout in the place this soon
- 5:51Speaker 1: when he got his best shot at the president. So
- 5:53Speaker 1: it looks like at least here we go again.
- 5:56Speaker 2: No, it does. Yeah, that's what it sounds like. Need
- 5:59Speaker 2: to know more. But as we talked talked about a
- 6:02Speaker 2: week or two ago, they're coming for him. They want
- 6:04Speaker 2: to kill him. They think he's the American Hitler, and
- 6:07Speaker 2: this will be a thread I think against him the
- 6:10Speaker 2: rest of his life.
- 6:11Speaker 1: Wow. You know, Rich Lowry, the amazing editor of National Review,
- 6:15Speaker 1: one of my favorite people. I'm not asking you what
- 6:17Speaker 1: you think is going to happen. We all agree that
- 6:19Speaker 1: he's going to be there. What I want from you
- 6:21Speaker 1: is what would you like to see? So I've been
- 6:24Speaker 1: at the very very forefront of trying to keep Mam
- 6:27Speaker 1: Donnie away from the Freedom Tower that sacred soil. At
- 6:31Speaker 1: nine to eleven, I had Giovanni Galante on this show
- 6:34Speaker 1: over a week ago he started the petition. Galante called
- 6:37Speaker 1: my show that morning he had fourteen thousand signaturists. Now
- 6:41Speaker 1: he's got eighty one thousand, okay, And I play his
- 6:43Speaker 1: cuts almost every day. And today the head of the
- 6:46Speaker 1: Catholic League, Bill Donnihue, who just wrote a six page
- 6:50Speaker 1: letter begging Mam Donnie not to come. He's going to
- 6:53Speaker 1: join me live coming up in about forty five minutes.
- 6:56Speaker 1: I am proud to say I've been at the front
- 6:58Speaker 1: of this ever since the life with you know what?
- 7:00Speaker 1: Have you listened every day? Do you like me? Hope
- 7:04Speaker 1: he doesn't show. I know you think he will, so
- 7:06Speaker 1: do why But if he had any heart, do you
- 7:10Speaker 1: hope he makes a decision not to show.
- 7:13Speaker 2: Yeah, he just say, look, I understand that these are
- 7:16Speaker 2: people a grieving over this terrible attack. I don't want
- 7:19Speaker 2: to call them, cause them any adjuita whatsoever. I think
- 7:23Speaker 2: they're wrong about me. I hate terrorism, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.
- 7:26Speaker 2: But out of respect for them, difference for them, I'm
- 7:29Speaker 2: going to take a powder on this. That's what he
- 7:31Speaker 2: should do. But he's not.
- 7:32Speaker 1: He's not. What do you think about the whole Fauci mess?
- 7:36Speaker 1: It was a mess. I mean, I think my favorite
- 7:37Speaker 1: part was Aaron Rodgers. In fact, let me play this
- 7:40Speaker 1: for you, Rich, I gotta play the Trump cut. You'll
- 7:43Speaker 1: enjoy this too. This is Pittsburgh steal a quarterback in
- 7:46Speaker 1: his last season, on the way of the Hall of Fame.
- 7:49Speaker 1: Pittsburgh still a quarterback. Aaron Rodgers on with Pat McAfee
- 7:52Speaker 1: courtesy of ESPN, and then Clay Travis, who's going to
- 7:56Speaker 1: join me coming up this morning at nine point thirty,
- 7:58Speaker 1: is on with Stuve Varney. Go to see you, Fox News.
- 8:01Speaker 1: So lewis gonna play in succession cuts eight and nine,
- 8:05Speaker 1: But Rich them we'll get Witch's thoughts.
- 8:07Speaker 4: You've been very open about coming back for this year
- 8:09Speaker 4: last rodeo, and you talked about your wife saying, hey,
- 8:12Speaker 4: have another year. Mike McCarthy being here obviously a big deal.
- 8:14Speaker 4: Can you tell us about the mindset of coming into
- 8:17Speaker 4: your last season? Like that's a real thing, it feels like,
- 8:19Speaker 4: cause is everything better? Is everything funner? Is everything more awesome?
- 8:23Speaker 3: Like?
- 8:23Speaker 4: How do you kind of view this year verse? Maybe
- 8:25Speaker 4: the years of the past.
- 8:25Speaker 5: I'm gonna plead the fifth okay, like like that absolute
- 8:34Speaker 5: coward Tony? Absolutely?
- 8:37Speaker 1: Yeah, are you kidding me?
- 8:39Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 8:39Speaker 4: One hundred and eleven.
- 8:40Speaker 6: You got a.
- 8:40Speaker 5: Pardon and you're and you pleaded over one hundred times.
- 8:43Speaker 1: Yeah at the White House. What are you scared of, Tony?
- 8:46Speaker 1: I thought you were the science.
- 8:47Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 8:47Speaker 1: Several athletes like Aaron Rodgers were ripped for questioning draconian
- 8:52Speaker 1: lockdown missions. Do you think they've been vindicated? Yes?
- 8:55Speaker 6: One billion percent they've been vindicated, Stu, thanks for having me.
- 8:59Speaker 6: I think think you can put Aaron Rodgers, props to him.
- 9:02Speaker 6: I think you could put Novak Djokovic in that mix,
- 9:06Speaker 6: and I think you can put Kyrie Irving in that mix.
- 9:08Speaker 6: Three different sports, three different athletes who recognize that mandating
- 9:13Speaker 6: the COVID shot made no sense, who spoke out against it,
- 9:17Speaker 6: and who were savaged by sports media. Anyone who refused
- 9:22Speaker 6: to get the COVID shot was ridiculed to the high
- 9:24Speaker 6: heavens that I think they have all been vindicated. And
- 9:27Speaker 6: unless you're watching me right now and you're on your
- 9:30Speaker 6: eighteenth or nineteenth COVID booster, I wish you would take
- 9:33Speaker 6: the virus more seriously.
- 9:34Speaker 1: I love Klay Travis again, he's coming on this morning.
- 9:37Speaker 1: I had Stephen A. Smith, I'm dumping names all morning
- 9:39Speaker 1: long on this show two days ago. But look is
- 9:42Speaker 1: this Monday morning quarterback? Was Klay Travis right?
- 9:46Speaker 2: Oh, it's totally right. I think that the shot did
- 9:49Speaker 2: a lot of good for elderly and vulnerable people. They
- 9:53Speaker 2: should have gotten it and gotten their eighteen boosters whatever
- 9:55Speaker 2: it was. But the idea that was mandated for everyone,
- 9:58Speaker 2: and the idea that young, healthy males competing at top
- 10:03Speaker 2: level athletics needed to get a COVID shot and had
- 10:05Speaker 2: to be shamed or excluded for the country they didn't,
- 10:08Speaker 2: was crazy. It was insane. And this is a theme
- 10:13Speaker 2: of the Fauci disgrace is that they never let us
- 10:16Speaker 2: in on any of the nuances or doubts about anything right.
- 10:19Speaker 2: They wanted to portray total certainty, even if they knew
- 10:22Speaker 2: it was wrong in order to exercise social control and
- 10:25Speaker 2: get people to do what they want. So they talked.
- 10:27Speaker 2: You had a little nuance about the shots. You know,
- 10:29Speaker 2: some people at the margins wouldn't get the shots, and
- 10:31Speaker 2: that was terrible. So she had to lie. And these
- 10:34Speaker 2: guys were right. They were totally right. Irving couldn't play basketball, right, and.
- 10:38Speaker 1: Oh he couldn't. He couldn't play home games, but he
- 10:41Speaker 1: could play on the road, right, right. I mean, it's nonsense.
- 10:44Speaker 1: You know why I had Bobby Kennedy on the show
- 10:46Speaker 1: too this week. I'm really dropping them, and he talked
- 10:49Speaker 1: about specifically little kids. Because if you saw that interview
- 10:53Speaker 1: where Dana Bansh CNN just embarrassed herself. She was really pathetic.
- 10:57Speaker 1: I'm sorry she was okay, she had no facts. She
- 11:00Speaker 1: started talking about studies. She can she has studies. She's
- 11:04Speaker 1: read studies where the COVID shots helped children. That's a lie, Rich,
- 11:09Speaker 1: That's a flat out lie.
- 11:11Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean one of the things we were so
- 11:14Speaker 2: lucky about with the pandemic. It didn't affect children, right, Nope,
- 11:17Speaker 2: but we mask children forever, even though that the mass
- 11:20Speaker 2: made zero difference. You had people who were talking seriously
- 11:23Speaker 2: about mandating shots for kids. It was just insand we.
- 11:27Speaker 1: Did keep him out of school. We created a whole
- 11:30Speaker 1: generation of morons to be honest.
- 11:31Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, idiocy and and fou. She says, Oh, I
- 11:34Speaker 2: had nothing to do with that. Then you read the diary,
- 11:36Speaker 2: He's like, oh wow, build a Bossie really liked all
- 11:38Speaker 2: my TV appearances and talk to me. Is going to
- 11:40Speaker 2: shut down the school.
- 11:41Speaker 1: Jim and Gavin Newsonim, I know, I mean, give me
- 11:42Speaker 1: a breath. One last thing. Clay is going to talk
- 11:45Speaker 1: about that today too. But he's also talking about this city.
- 11:49Speaker 1: Put together this deal. Rich, you'll love this. They're a
- 11:51Speaker 1: great sports guy. So he's putting up ten million dollars
- 11:54Speaker 1: And don't ask me how he has it. I have
- 11:56Speaker 1: no idea, Okay, but he has it. He's putting up
- 11:58Speaker 1: ten million dollars. He won the w NBA Champs, the
- 12:02Speaker 1: Las Vegas Aces to take on any high school state
- 12:08Speaker 1: senior basketball championship team. If the boys win that high
- 12:13Speaker 1: school team, he'll give that team two million dollars. If
- 12:16Speaker 1: the WNBA Champs win, he'll give them ten million. This
- 12:21Speaker 1: is his way of proving that a high school boy
- 12:25Speaker 1: is still better at sports than a pro female. It
- 12:30Speaker 1: sounds crazy, but it's not.
- 12:32Speaker 2: What are your thoughts as absolutely brilliant. He's absolutely right.
- 12:37Speaker 2: The women's national soccer team lost to a high school
- 12:41Speaker 2: team a couple of years ago. I think five to two.
- 12:44Speaker 2: Of course they get smoked. It doesn't mean it's nothing
- 12:47Speaker 2: against the women. They're just women and guys are different. Right,
- 12:50Speaker 2: And that you have a basketball league that has a
- 12:53Speaker 2: W in front of it because it's for women, Because
- 12:55Speaker 2: if it weren't, it wasn't for women, they'd all be,
- 12:58Speaker 2: you know, watching it on TV as so of the
- 13:00Speaker 2: you know, as high school kids played in that league.
- 13:02Speaker 2: High school boys. It's crazy, and it's because they're they're
- 13:05Speaker 2: woke and they can't acknowledge the truth. And they hate
- 13:08Speaker 2: Sophie Cunningham because she's feminine and pretty and speaking the truth.
- 13:12Speaker 1: On this it's straight. She's also straight, she likes boys. Anyway,
- 13:15Speaker 1: you're amazing, what a great appearance. Take this appearance. Now,
- 13:19Speaker 1: look at these seven different things you covered, and compare
- 13:22Speaker 1: that with Megan Kelly. I'm saying, Rich Lowry really on
