- 0:14Speaker 1: as it has been for many years. Starting Monday, it'll

- 0:22Speaker 1: extra hour, but it'll be great. It'll be great starting
- 0:26Speaker 1: next week, starting Monday, will be on nine o'clock to noon,
- 0:28Speaker 1: So don't forget to tune into that first hour. And
- 0:31Speaker 1: of course, if you're a podcast listener, why you'll get
- 0:34Speaker 1: an extra hour every day. So hey, Savannah Guthrie puts
- 0:39Speaker 1: out a new video. She's changed some of the wording
- 0:45Speaker 1: of what she says over time, and some believe that
- 0:50Speaker 1: maybe they heard from the kidnapper or somebody involved, that
- 0:53Speaker 1: there was some communication. Because the wording has changed from
- 0:58Speaker 1: what she said before. They think maybe she'd another letter
- 1:00Speaker 1: or something like that. You know, she used to talk
- 1:04Speaker 1: about getting her mother back. Now she talks about She
- 1:07Speaker 1: makes it clear that they don't really believe her to
- 1:10Speaker 1: be alive. They just want to find where she is.
- 1:14Speaker 1: And well, this is from the new video she just
- 1:17Speaker 1: put out.
- 1:17Speaker 2: It has been months since our mom was taken from us.
- 1:23Speaker 2: Our family is in agony. We are in a nightmare
- 1:28Speaker 2: that will not end. Nothing about our situation has changed.
- 1:32Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean this is very hard to listen to.
- 1:34Speaker 2: The world can be a cruel and unforgiving place. And
- 1:38Speaker 2: I know that you have tried to do things the
- 1:41Speaker 2: right way. So I'm asking you, begging you to do
- 1:46Speaker 2: the right thing. Now, make the right choice, help us
- 1:51Speaker 2: find her, tell us where to look for her. I
- 1:54Speaker 2: truly believe it is never too late to do the
- 1:56Speaker 2: right thing.
- 1:58Speaker 1: So, yeah, you see in that one, she she seems
- 2:00Speaker 1: to be talking to somebody specifically, as if they've had
- 2:03Speaker 1: some communication from somebody.
- 2:05Speaker 2: The world can be a cruel and unforgiving place, and
- 2:08Speaker 2: I know that you have tried to do things the
- 2:11Speaker 2: right way, so I'm asking.
- 2:14Speaker 1: I don't know what that kidnapping. Your mother is not
- 2:17Speaker 1: trying to do things the right way. But boy, you
- 2:19Speaker 1: can feel her agony. Now. There have been many cases
- 2:24Speaker 1: in history where somebody is kidnapped, even a prominent person,
- 2:30Speaker 1: a famous kidnapping. I mean, sometimes they're returned, you know,
- 2:34Speaker 1: like Frank Sinatra Junior, that was a famous kidnapping. They
- 2:38Speaker 1: got them back. But sometimes, and there are times in
- 2:41Speaker 1: history where you just never ever ever ever find the person,
- 2:45Speaker 1: no matter how famous, no matter how many people are looking,
- 2:49Speaker 1: no matter how many years. Jimmy hoff is a great example.
- 2:53Speaker 1: How many years ago is that fifty years ago? A
- 2:57Speaker 1: little more than fifty years ago. Not a clue as
- 3:01Speaker 1: to where he is. There was a famous one in
- 3:04Speaker 1: the I think it was the thirties or forties. Judge
- 3:06Speaker 1: Crater was a very prominent judge in New York. He
- 3:09Speaker 1: was just kidnapped off the street one day. And that's
- 3:13Speaker 1: almost a one hundred years ago. We still haven't found him.
- 3:16Speaker 1: And that was a big, high profile, big name case.
- 3:19Speaker 1: So it does happen. We we just never ever ever
- 3:22Speaker 1: find the person. So the President met with Solinski. Apparently
- 3:26Speaker 1: that was a good meeting. Then he met with netan
- 3:28Speaker 1: Yahoo in the Oval Office. Apparently that's not such a
- 3:33Speaker 1: great meeting. Actually, I think that's still going on right now.
- 3:36Speaker 1: Apparently netnya who's getting scolded a little by President Trump.
- 3:41Speaker 1: He does have intel on things going on in Iran,
- 3:45Speaker 1: you know, nuclear stuff. He has intel, but the President
- 3:49Speaker 1: scolding him for releasing it and leaking it out to
- 3:53Speaker 1: the public. Thinking. I guess he thought Netnaho that this
- 3:57Speaker 1: would push President Trump to do more to Iran. Also
- 4:02Speaker 1: President Trump scolding him saying, you know we have the
- 4:05Speaker 1: same intelligence. We don't need your intelligence so much anymore.
- 4:08Speaker 1: So this will be a try to make peace meeting
- 4:12Speaker 1: for Netan Yahoo with President Trump. Hey, this little worm,
- 4:17Speaker 1: doctor Anthony Fauci. You know, he really took the nation
- 4:21Speaker 1: by storm. He was in the middle of a pandemic.
- 4:24Speaker 1: A frightened nation saw this lovable old teddy bear, this grandfather,
- 4:28Speaker 1: this doctor Fauci, this cute little guy, and they started
- 4:34Speaker 1: to think of him as this kind grandfather type. But well,
- 4:37Speaker 1: it turns out he's a dirty, weasel, liar, complete total liar,
- 4:43Speaker 1: This Anthony Fauci. First of all, as horrible as the
- 4:46Speaker 1: pandemic was, he never told us he created it. He
- 4:51Speaker 1: funded this Wuhan lab doing this gain of function research,
- 4:55Speaker 1: trying to create such a virus for apparently experiment purposes.
- 5:00Speaker 1: But it leaked out at a lab and engulf the
- 5:03Speaker 1: whole world. He covered that up. He then lied about
- 5:08Speaker 1: that left and right, saying he never ever ever ever
- 5:12Speaker 1: financed that lab. Well, of course he did. It turned
- 5:14Speaker 1: out he launded it through another organization. But this will
- 5:17Speaker 1: all come out now Rand Paul has made it his
- 5:22Speaker 1: mission to expose this dirty, lying, rotten Fauci, and tomorrow
- 5:27Speaker 1: they're going to have more hearings. Fauci has been pardoned
- 5:30Speaker 1: by Joe Biden. I'll try to overturn that pardon, proving
- 5:33Speaker 1: it as an auto pen but that could take a while,
- 5:36Speaker 1: and he will be forced to testify again tomorrow. Fauci.
- 5:40Speaker 1: I doubt that he'll admit to being a lying, thieving,
- 5:43Speaker 1: crooked guy. So he'll probably lie again, which he can
- 5:47Speaker 1: because with that pardon, can't be prosecuted for it. And
- 5:52Speaker 1: he can't take the Fifth Amendment when you have a pardon,
- 5:54Speaker 1: because you wouldn't be in any legal jeopardy by talking.
- 5:57Speaker 1: So he'll have to testify, So it'll be interesting to
- 5:59Speaker 1: see what happens tomorrow. Now, the reason they can really
- 6:02Speaker 1: go after him now is they've got in his diaries,
- 6:04Speaker 1: his journal during this whole time, he kept the journal,
- 6:08Speaker 1: and he admits in the journal to all kinds of lying.
- 6:11Speaker 1: For instance, he lied about the death rate publicly, he
- 6:15Speaker 1: said the death rates two to three percent. In the journal,
- 6:19Speaker 1: he said, you know, the death rates actually zero point
- 6:22Speaker 1: two percent, so it was one tenth of what he
- 6:25Speaker 1: was claiming publicly, and if you read the journal, he
- 6:28Speaker 1: knew that he knew it and he was lying to
- 6:30Speaker 1: the public. And then he was clearly a starstruck guy
- 6:35Speaker 1: desperately trying to become famous. As he started to become
- 6:38Speaker 1: famous and was all over television, he loved it, and
- 6:41Speaker 1: he wrote all about it in his journal how much
- 6:44Speaker 1: he loved it. He bragged about celebrities. Julia Roberts called him.
- 6:48Speaker 1: He had a lunch with the Barbara streisand he was
- 6:52Speaker 1: starstruck celebrity chasing. Now this is the worst part. He
- 6:58Speaker 1: brags about having dinner with Jake Tapper. You know, when
- 7:05Speaker 1: your life, when you get to the point where you're
- 7:09Speaker 1: excited about having dinner with Jake Tapper, you really need
- 7:11Speaker 1: to rethink your life. I've had dinner with Jake Tapper.
- 7:15Speaker 1: I dozed off twice, I think. I mean, it's not
- 7:17Speaker 1: the most exciting thing in the world to be around
- 7:20Speaker 1: Jake Tapper. So here's the other thing. It was during
- 7:26Speaker 1: a period, you remember that time where you weren't supposed
- 7:28Speaker 1: to have any family gatherings. It was getting towards Thanksgiving,
- 7:32Speaker 1: and he said, you know, don't have people over to
- 7:35Speaker 1: your house and don't have family gatherings, don't have relatives
- 7:38Speaker 1: over to your house. Well, if you read the journal,
- 7:40Speaker 1: while he was saying that, like that night, he was
- 7:42Speaker 1: having Jake Tapper and his wife over to his house
- 7:45Speaker 1: and they were having dinners together. So he just lied
- 7:48Speaker 1: about everything. Now, this is too long to go into,
- 7:53Speaker 1: but there's a guy that well it it was a
- 7:59Speaker 1: guy involved in some shenanigans with Wuhan and the lab
- 8:02Speaker 1: and anyway, he claimed when he testified before Congress that
- 8:05Speaker 1: he knew nothing about this guy, knows nothing about his actions,
- 8:09Speaker 1: doesn't know the guy, never heard of the guy, doesn't
- 8:12Speaker 1: know the guy. Well, if you read the journal, he
- 8:15Speaker 1: not only knew the guy, he writes in the journal
- 8:17Speaker 1: about contacting him, about asking him questions, about talking to him.
- 8:21Speaker 1: So he's going to get asked about all of this tomorrow,
- 8:23Speaker 1: these crazy lies that he told it's going to be
- 8:27Speaker 1: quite explosive. So that will be tomorrow Ran Paul exposing
- 8:32Speaker 1: this guy, So keep an eye on him. Hey, the
- 8:34Speaker 1: Odyssey six hundred million, You know who else is making
- 8:38Speaker 1: a lot of money on the bootleggers. You know, for
- 8:42Speaker 1: all the big blockbuster movies out there, there's always bootlegs.
- 8:45Speaker 1: You know, years ago it was a DVD. You'd get
- 8:48Speaker 1: a DVD of the movie, a bootleg DVD. Now they're
- 8:51Speaker 1: always online. They're posted on YouTube or somewhere or some
- 8:57Speaker 1: secret website where you need all kinds of code to
- 9:00Speaker 1: get into. But apparently there was one bootleg, and you know,
- 9:03Speaker 1: the movie company has to hunt these down and get
- 9:06Speaker 1: them taken down. But there was one that was up
- 9:08Speaker 1: for a couple of days. It was actually on Twitter
- 9:11Speaker 1: on X and it got two point one million views
- 9:15Speaker 1: before they took it down. The whole two and a
- 9:18Speaker 1: half hours was posted, the whole movie two point one
- 9:21Speaker 1: million views, so that's two million customers they lost. They
- 9:24Speaker 1: didn't need to see the movie. Now you got to
- 9:26Speaker 1: go see it in what do you call that, that
- 9:28Speaker 1: big surrounded stuff, the Imax. You need to go see
- 9:32Speaker 1: it at the Imax theater, and apparently they're all sold
- 9:35Speaker 1: out now. They say you need the IMAX to be
- 9:38Speaker 1: surrounded by it to have it a big surround picture
- 9:41Speaker 1: sound everything, So watching on X not quite the same thing.
- 9:45Speaker 1: But it sold out everywhere. So even you want to
- 9:48Speaker 1: go see it that way, it's not easy to do. Hey,
- 9:51Speaker 1: Rosie O'Donnell, is on the View. Remember she used to
- 9:56Speaker 1: be the host of the View years ago. So she
- 9:58Speaker 1: goes on the View and she's talking about Trump and
- 10:00Speaker 1: bashing Trump and calling Trump every name in the world,
- 10:03Speaker 1: but she says he's a rapist. She calls him a rapist.
- 10:08Speaker 1: She calls Trump a rapist, and the host did not
- 10:12Speaker 1: push back on that. Now they may not realize that
- 10:15Speaker 1: you can't call him a rapist because George Stephanopolis did
- 10:19Speaker 1: that on the Sunday Show and got sued and ABC
- 10:24Speaker 1: had to pay Trump fifteen million because it was not
- 10:27Speaker 1: a rapist It's not true, and they ended up paying
- 10:31Speaker 1: Trump fifteen million. So I hopefully he sues ABC again
- 10:36Speaker 1: over a Rosie on the View and collects another fifteen million.
- 10:40Speaker 1: This just happened yesterday, So look for this lawsuit to
- 10:43Speaker 1: come and Trump to get another fifteen million dollars. Hey,
- 10:46Speaker 1: you know how you watch all these pollsters, not the
- 10:52Speaker 1: real polls, the fake polls, the public polls, the junk polls,
- 10:56Speaker 1: and they all tell you how the Republicans are so low,
- 11:00Speaker 1: their approval rating is so low. Why I look at this,
- 11:02Speaker 1: it's forty three percent, you know or something like that.
- 11:06Speaker 1: Look how low they are approval ratings. And that's all
- 11:09Speaker 1: they tell you. They don't mention the Democrats have the
- 11:12Speaker 1: lowest approval ratings of anything on earth. The Democrat approval
- 11:15Speaker 1: rating is like two. It's like, so, now here's the
- 11:18Speaker 1: CNN polster. This is the CNN polster.
- 11:22Speaker 3: Okay, the Democratic Party net favorability back in twenty eighteen.
- 11:27Speaker 3: Back in twenty eighteen, when Democrats were able to take
- 11:29Speaker 3: control the House, they were actually on the plus side, Elleger,
- 11:32Speaker 3: they were actually in positive territory at plus one point.
- 11:36Speaker 3: Look now in twenty twenty six, we're not just talking
- 11:39Speaker 3: down there underneath the Potomac. We're talking down there with
- 11:42Speaker 3: the Titanic. We're talking twenty four points underwater. And this
- 11:46Speaker 3: is just the party overall. This isn't the congression leadership.
- 11:49Speaker 3: This is the party.
- 11:51Speaker 1: Yeah. So they forget to tell you when they talk
- 11:52Speaker 1: about these poles that nobody has lower rate approval ratings
- 11:55Speaker 1: than the Democrats. This is the CNN polster telling you this.
- 11:59Speaker 3: It's appathy, not believing that Democrats can change anything. Because
- 12:03Speaker 3: the impacts of democratic Democratic policies on your cost of living,
- 12:06Speaker 3: only forty one percent say help hurt or wouldn't change it?
- 12:10Speaker 3: The clear majority nearly three to five fifty nine percent.
- 12:14Speaker 1: Yeah, so Democrats totally underwater. As more, the CNN polster.
- 12:19Speaker 3: In late February at the beginning of the war is
- 12:21Speaker 3: minus forty one points, minus thirty nine, minus thirty nine.
- 12:24Speaker 3: And so you're just looking at these numbers right here,
- 12:27Speaker 3: and you go to yourself, no wonder, no wonder, what's
- 12:30Speaker 3: going on at this point that Democrats, simply put, cannot
- 12:33Speaker 3: take the ball and run with it, and actually in
- 12:36Speaker 3: the pollsby trusted mourning run because the Democrats in Congress.
- 12:39Speaker 4: Simply put, are not well like.
- 12:40Speaker 3: In fact, these are the three lowest on record in
- 12:44Speaker 3: terms of percentage points for the approval for Democrats in Congress.
- 12:49Speaker 1: Hey, coming up, you got nine to eleven. Of course
- 12:52Speaker 1: this time it'll be the twenty fifth anniversary. This will
- 12:55Speaker 1: be a big one. And the families do not want
- 13:00Speaker 1: Mom Donny there. They've signed a petition asking him not
- 13:03Speaker 1: to come. Here's one of the families.
- 13:05Speaker 5: We felt that having Mandannie there would show disrespect to
- 13:10Speaker 5: our family members because of the people he supports.
- 13:13Speaker 1: Now, of course, Mom Donnie, as soon as he hears
- 13:16Speaker 1: it will upset the families. He's racing to get there,
- 13:19Speaker 1: and I mean this guy anything to upset anything, here's
- 13:22Speaker 1: Mom Donnie.
- 13:23Speaker 5: I will proudly honor the families, the survivors, the first responders,
- 13:29Speaker 5: forever impacted by that horrific terror attack by standing alongside
- 13:33Speaker 5: them at this year's nine to eleven commemoration, reaffirming that
- 13:37Speaker 5: we will never forget the solemn day felt by all
- 13:40Speaker 5: of us who call the city home and frankly by
- 13:42Speaker 5: all of us who call this country home.
- 13:43Speaker 1: Now, I don't know if he can stand beside them,
- 13:45Speaker 1: because they'll walk away from him, probably, or they'll do
- 13:49Speaker 1: what the cops did to the Blasio. They'll just turn
- 13:51Speaker 1: their backs on him as protest. And again, Mom Donnie's
- 13:56Speaker 1: always urging protests. How can he complain? But as he'll
- 14:01Speaker 1: be pretty now, I don't know what the President's going
- 14:03Speaker 1: to do. He may go to the Pentagon for the
- 14:06Speaker 1: nine to eleven ceremony, he may do something at the
- 14:08Speaker 1: White House, but he might come to Ground Zero, he
- 14:12Speaker 1: might come to New York and if Mom Donnie's going
- 14:14Speaker 1: to be there, maybe the President should come stand next
- 14:16Speaker 1: to him because whatever publicity stunt Mom Donnie's up to,
- 14:21Speaker 1: if he's trying to rile up his crazy bass. If
- 14:24Speaker 1: the President Trump is standing next to him, that's going
- 14:26Speaker 1: to just screw him up completely. So maybe that would
- 14:29Speaker 1: be a good idea. And once a while people say, well,
- 14:33Speaker 1: why don't you have Democrats on? Why don't you have
- 14:35Speaker 1: somebody with an opposing view? Why don't you have the
- 14:37Speaker 1: big Democratic people on this show? They won't do it,
- 14:43Speaker 1: They don't do it. Bill Maher was asked the same question.
- 14:46Speaker 1: He will ask me all the time.
- 14:48Speaker 4: Why haven't you ever had Hillary or Bill Clinton on?
- 14:51Speaker 4: Why didn't you have Kamala on during the last campaign.
- 14:55Speaker 4: You think we don't ask We ask these people every week.
- 15:00Speaker 4: They say no, it took eight years and a petition
- 15:04Speaker 4: to get Obama on. And these are people, all people
- 15:07Speaker 4: I voted for. Think about that. They're afraid to come
- 15:10Speaker 4: on the show of a guy who voted for them.
- 15:14Speaker 1: Dared your answer, Hey, we'll take some calls next. Eight
- 15:17Speaker 1: hundred three two one zero seven ten is the number?
- 15:20Speaker 1: Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten
