  Speaker 1: Everybody, welcome to Vince on a Friday. Man, it's great
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: to have you with us, the best audience anywhere. We
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: have a lot to get to today, as always. In fact,
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: the Republican Party is, well, it's not feckless everywhere. In fact,
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: we're seeing a lot of fight out of the Republicans
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: right now, including in the state of Tennessee, an epic
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: victory yesterday. Just to pick up one, apparently, Republican seat,
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: we'll see. We'll get into the details of that and
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: the absolute hysteria that the left is in right now.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: that they are losing power because we're getting rid of racism.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: Isn't that an amazing thing? It's an amazing thing. Also,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: I've got updates for you on the war with Iran.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: We've got a lot of breaking news on that. It
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: turns out we've got some exchanges of gunfire going on
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: between the United States and Iran. We're better at it,
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: by the way, a lot better at it. But the
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: president says the prospect of a deal is still there.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: In fact, we could have a deal within a week.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: I'll bring you all of the latest, kind of walk
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: you through the timeline of what the hell just happened
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: this week We've got so much to discuss today. Let's
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: just dive right into it. Great to have you with
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: us as always. I want to thank the great sponsors
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: who make the show possible today. Rumble Wallet. First up today,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: Rumble Wallet. We love Rumble. Rumble is where we do
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: the show each day, eight o'clock Eastern time each morning.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: We love Rumble as a free speech platform, but you
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: know what you should also love is Rumble Wallet, which
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: is really freedom for your money. That's what you need.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: That's the most important thing I would think. Well, free
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: speech is more important, but then freedom of your money.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: You know, we hear a lot about crypto, and here's
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: the part a lot of people miss. Crypto was actually
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: created so you could own and control your money. It's
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: a huge deal. Now, after that 2008 financial crisis, Bitcoin
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: was designed as an alternative to those banks. So instead
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: of a bank holding your money, delaying transfers, limiting access
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: to your own money, you're in control. How about that?
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: If you've ever had to wait for a transfer to clear,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: but getting started, sorry, if you've ever had to wait
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: for a transfer to clear, you've felt this problem. But
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: if you fast forward to today, everybody's heard about crypto.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Getting started still feels complicated. This is precisely why you
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: should use Rumble Wallet. It takes all the complexity out.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: It makes it simple. Choose what you want. Bitcoin, dollar-backed
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: stable coins, or even digital gold backed by real gold.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: There's no complicated setup. You can be up and running
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: in just minutes. Start small, 10, 50, 100 bucks. Take
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: that first step while it's still early. And once you're
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: set up, you can even support your favorite Rumble creators
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: like me. You can do that. Just do whatever you want.

• 2:50
  Speaker 1: custodial service. See terms at wallet.rumble.com. Well, well, well, Tennessee,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: you did it. You did it, Tennessee. We picked up
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: a seat yesterday in Tennessee. Indiana, you see how easy
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: this is? All you had to do was say yes.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: All you had to do was fight back just a
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: little bit. And we would be applauding you the way
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: we're applauding Tennessee this morning. Instead, we had to throw
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: a bunch of Indiana Republicans out of office. That just
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: happened this week. Tennessee gets the message, and the Tennessee
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: state legislature moves, moves, moves. In fact, the governor of
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: the state, Bill Lee, yesterday signed it right into law
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: the second it popped out of the legislature. That's the
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: legislative process, and it was done like that. It was
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: done very quickly yesterday. You love to see it. Tennessee
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: just approved a new map, the New York Times reports.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Very grumpily. They hate this. Aimed at flipping the last
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Democratic seat. This is their report from yesterday. Grumpy, grumpy
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: New York Times. After a Supreme Court ruling that weakened
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: the Voting Rights Act of 1965, Republicans carved up a
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: majority black Memphis seat as the national redistricting wars continue. Yeah, look,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: the court said this week, you can't draw districts based
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: on race. So what did Tennessee? They ended the districts
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: based on race. No more race-based districts. No more racializing
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: these districts in the United States of America. Governor Bill
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Lee of Tennessee signed a new congressional map into law Thursday.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: It slices up Memphis. It slices it up. By the way,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: if you're from Memphis, how have Democrats served you? Anybody
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: in the chat from Memphis? How exactly have the Democrats
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: served you? You know, you point at, this is a
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Republican-controlled state. There's a lot of Republicans in Tennessee, clearly.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: But in Memphis, you have all this Democrat-concentrated control. Has
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: it helped Memphis a lot? Because last I checked, Memphis
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: has been the biggest problem in Tennessee. And it turns
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: out that Democrat governance has run that city directly into
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: the ground. So wouldn't it be a wonderful thing to
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: have more Republican influence over the affairs of Memphis? I
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: would think so if you judge it based on the
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: rest of the state. The rest of the state is fine. Memphis,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: not so fine. How about we get some Republican control
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: in there for once? Could be really good for the city. Yeah,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: it could be. I think it could be excellent. So
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: here they sliced up Memphis. To scatter black voters into
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: neighboring districts. That's not why Memphis was sliced up. It
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: wasn't to scatter black voters. It was to eliminate a
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: racialized district. It was a move intended to eliminate the
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: state's last Democrat House seat. Well, good. That's good. That's
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: good news. Because Democrats have stolen 40 seats or more
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: across the country through these rigging schemes. Now we're just
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: correcting it. That's wonderful. It's the first map crafted since
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: the Supreme Court weakened the remaining provision of the Voting
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Rights Act. It didn't weaken. The New York Times is
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: lying to you. They didn't weaken the Voting Rights Act.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: They upheld the Voting Rights Act. The Voting Rights Act
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: is about not discriminating on the basis of race. And so,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: by the way, is the 14th and 15th Amendment. It's
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: about not discriminating on the basis of race. The Democrats
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: were doing that. This is upholding the Voting Rights Act,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: which I will remind you was passed by Republicans. Okay.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: Getting worked up. I'm getting too worked up. We've got
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: a victory here. Shouldn't be so worked up.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: Here we are.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: By making it difficult for states to craft race-based districts.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: They write majority-minority, but race-based districts. With Tennessee taking the lead,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: the ruling has opened a new front, particularly in the South,
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: in a bitter coast-to-coast redistricting battle ahead of November's midterm elections.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: The new map passed over angry, angry. Now pay attention
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: to who they're talking about. These are Democrats. So they're angry,
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: emotionally incontinent, out of control, children, passed over angry, loud
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: protests that sought to at least slow the vote. Even
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: in the state legislature, Democrats are trying to rig the vote.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: It splits Memphis and Shelby County into three separate districts,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: blasting apart the seat of Representative Steve Cohen, Tennessee's last
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: House Democrat. Yes, that's right. Famous black Democrat Steve Cohen
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: is losing his seat. Steve Cohen is, I don't know,
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: that guy's as white as drywall. He's a white dude,
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: but they're trying to figure out a way to racialize
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: this whole thing so they keep shoehorning race into it all.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: How about no more race shoehorning? How about no racial prejudice?
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: How about we just draw American districts and allow the
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: voters to have a say over how their affairs are run?
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: And I love seeing this. I think it's great. The
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Democrat freakout was really, well, it was really on display yesterday.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Here's the moment it passed the state Senate. Listen and
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: watch this. Cut one. All right, we're going back to
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: the live, live now. They're just trying to talk. They're
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: just trying to conduct the affairs. Listen to the screaming.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: Eyes 25, nays 5.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: House Bill 7003, having received a constitutional majority, I declare
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: it passed.
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: It's passed.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: And off it went, and Bill Lee signed it before
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: the media was done writing the story about the bill's passage.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: I mean it yesterday. Bill Lee signed it in no time.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: I think they dropped it out of a window in
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: the statehouse, and Bill Lee signed it as the thing
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: was coming down out of the air. They instantly got
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: this thing passed. It was great. It was great. Oh,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: and man, those Democrats were going crazy yesterday because all
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: they have is election rigging. They don't have good ideas.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: They just have election rigging, which is why they're panicking.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: In fact, yesterday there was a there was a scrawny
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: like goofball Democrat with a hilarious Afro. This guy's called
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Justin Pearson. And he was caught on camera yesterday attempting
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: to bow up with Tennessee state troopers. Get out of
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: my face. Move the fuck back. He's like screaming at
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: these guys. The guy's he's he's built like a like
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: a human toothpick. He's like walking around with a big afro.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: So more like a Q-tip, I would say. He's a
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: he's a Q-tip. Here's a Pearson getting in the face
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: yesterday of the police and acting like some psychopath. Watch this.
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: Screams boy in the guy's face what is wrong with
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: you listen to that that's a good way.
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: To treat the cops yeah back the blue.
• 9:43
  Speaker 6: They really support.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: Listen to that. That's a good way to treat the cops. Yeah,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: back the blue. They really support law enforcement, these guys.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Screaming in the faces of the cops. What did the
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: cop do wrong? The cop did nothing wrong. The cop
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: is there to protect them, and he's screaming in that
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: guy's face? Yeah, that dude's a psycho. Yelling, boy, I'm
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: pretty sure that dude was older than him. I think
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: that Justin Pearson character is like 30. Boy. What a spaz.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: What a spaz. He's crazy. Now, him acting like an idiot,
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: I think there were some people calling for him to
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: be arrested yesterday for getting in the face of the cop.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: I don't know. The point is, he's a whack job,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: and he's demonstrated it. You know, it's funny, too, because
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: that guy, Justin Pearson, you know, you see him pop
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: up from time to time on social media in Tennessee.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: He's he's very showy. You know, he wanted to run
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: one of the hilarious things about this. I'll get to
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Steve Cohen in a second and more broadly. But he
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: wanted to run for that district, the district that's now disappearing,
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: that Memphis concentrated district that's now leaving because of the redraw.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: He wanted to run for it. He was going to
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: run in a primary against Cohen. And his anger is
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: actually that he isn't going to be just granted a
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: rigged district now. to bring him into Congress. Can you
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: imagine that jackass in Congress? So the Republicans not only
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: did us a favor by getting rid of the rigged
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: racist district and this ill-gotten Democrat power, they also did
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: us a favor by keeping that whack job away from D.C.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: That's great news. Now, he wasn't always like this. You
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: know this Pearson guy? He actually went from sort of
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: like a clean-cut overachiever when he was in college. You know, like,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: I want to bring everybody together. And then he started
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: play acting as some sort of civil rights activist with
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: a big Afro. Look at this guy, look at the
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: transformation he has made as he's gone from, you know,
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: overachieving college kid to guy cosplaying as some sort of
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: civil rights hero. Watch this, cut four.
• 11:58
  Speaker 7: And I'm running for president of PSG. There are a
• 12:01
  Speaker 7: few reasons that we're running this campaign this year. One
• 12:04
  Speaker 7: has to do with representation. How can we represent all
• 12:07
  Speaker 7: voices in a conversation? I want to do this by
• 12:10
  Speaker 7: partnering with organizations from the Buden Democrats to the Buden Republicans.
• 12:14
  Speaker 7: I want to bring together different voices, dissenting voices, voices
• 12:18
  Speaker 7: that may be more liberal or more conservative. in order
• 12:20
  Speaker 7: that we can reach a point of sort of the
• 12:22
  Speaker 7: radical middle.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: Listen to this guy.
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: NRA and gun lobbyists might win.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: But all that was good news for us.
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: I don't know how long this Saturday in the state
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: of Tennessee might last.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: But oh, we have good news, folks. We've got good
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: news that Sunday always comes. Oh, what a dork. Yeah,
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: that's the authenticity people are looking for. How sad. How
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: completely pathetic. And I love his, like, you know, again,
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: it's like just civil rights cosplay. It's like stolen valor
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: or something. It's just ridiculous. It's just ridiculous. You haven't
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: struggled for anything, you tool. You're an absolute tool. And
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: in fact, again, his freak out, the reason he's getting
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: in the face of these cops, he's mad that he
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: doesn't get a rigged district gift wrapped for him.
• 13:32
  Speaker 6: Sorry, buddy.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: No gift for you. No rigged district for you. Hilarious.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: In fact, you know, it goes back to a fundamental point.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: There is no such thing, there should be, no such
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: thing in the United States of America as a black
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: district or a white district or a Hispanic district, there
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: should be no such thing. Because in the United States
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: of America, we have American districts. There was a lovely
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: woman yesterday on Will Kane's program who made this point
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: over on Fox to the face of a leftist who
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: was telling her, and she's a black woman, he was
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: telling her, it's a black district. And she goes, that's crazy.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: Listen to this, cut five.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: We are seeing a black man in Tennessee fight to
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: keep the only black district that they have there being
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: totally erased off the map. And I just think, you know,
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: there needs to be more, you know, those those those
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: conversations need to be tied together.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: There's no such thing as.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: A black.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: District or a white district. It's an American district.
• 14:33
  Speaker 8: You know, people again, we vote based on our values,
• 14:37
  Speaker 8: not the color of our skin.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: At least we shouldn't.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: Also, listen to the sleight of hand of that leftist.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: He's like, oh, there's a black man fighting to keep
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: a majority black district in Congress. What are you talking about?
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: Steve Cohen ain't black. Steve Cohen. Steve Cohen's as white
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: as toothpaste. What are you talking about? Steve Cohen? The
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: Democrat who's held that seat forever? It's a very inconvenient detail.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: You're not supposed to mention that Steve Cohen's a white dude.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: But we're mentioning it. It's like the whole thing is
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: just nonsense. The whole story is nonsense. It's a rigged district.
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: It shouldn't exist. Goodbye. Absolutely goodbye. It's great. In fact,
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: let's say goodbye to Steve Cohen. Steve Cohen is raging
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: about this. Now, Steve Cohen may be one of the
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: lesser known figures of among the loopy lefties, but he's
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: definitely up there in terms of loopiness, and we'll give
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: him his due here. The guy's a psycho. The guy's
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: a psycho. He is really outraged by this. He's upset
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: by the redraw. He posted on Next this week. This
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: is insane, said Steve Cohen. The GOP's newly proposed Tennessee
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: congressional maps would have people in Shelby County all the
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: way to Williamson County, 200 plus miles apart, being represented
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: by the same congressman. Oh, you may want to check
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: in with your boys in Virginia, the Democrats who redrew
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: the map to steal four congressional seats and then made
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Western Virginia have to work at the behest of Northern Virginia,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: right by the nation's capital. Like, okay, spare us the
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: crocodile tears here. Steve Cohen, you're just upset that your
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: rigged district's disappearing. He says, it's a blatant, corrupt power
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: grab that would destroy the black communities and our entire
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: city's voice. He's the voice of the black community, says
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: Steve Cohen. I'm the voice. We would be destroyed. We
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: would be destroyed. Steve Cohen is crazy. And here's some
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: evidence for this. I want to share some of the
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: most obvious evidence in the world for his craziness. And
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: let me take you back. I want to take you back.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: We'll do this chronologically. Back in time, 2018. Steve Cohen
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: has sitting before him in a congressional hearing an infamous
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: person by the name of Peter Strzok, a former FBI agent.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: Peter Strzok, for those of you who have followed literally
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: any news at all, would know. Peter Strzok is the
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: guy who's trying to destroy Donald Trump through the Trump-Russia
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: collusion hoax. don't worry, we'll stop him, he was texting
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: Lisa Page. They were talking about how they could smell
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: Trump voters in a Walmart. The guy clearly was abusing
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: his power inside of the FBI, utter contempt for Trump voters,
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: hated Donald Trump, was trying to stop the presidency of
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: the United States through his nefarious actions. So when he
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: gets hauled before Congress in 2018, Steve Cohen gives him
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: a tongue bath. Steve Cohen says, Peter Strzok, you're so wonderful.
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: In fact, you're so wonderful, I want to give you
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: the Purple Heart. Watch.
• 17:33
  Speaker 8: If I could give you a Purple Heart, I would.
• 17:36
  Speaker 8: You deserve one. This has been an attack on you
• 17:40
  Speaker 8: and a way to attack Mr. Mueller and the investigation
• 17:43
  Speaker 8: that is to get at Russia collusion involved in our election,
• 17:47
  Speaker 8: which is what this committee should be looking at, a
• 17:49
  Speaker 8: direct strike at democracy and what this country's about and
• 17:53
  Speaker 8: free and fair elections, keeping us independent of who is
• 17:56
  Speaker 8: our foe.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: What a jackass. A Purple Heart. A Purple Heart. How
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: do you feel about that, veterans? A Purple Heart for
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Peter Strzok? Anybody in the chat know someone who's received
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: a Purple Heart? My brother has a Purple Heart. My
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: brother has a Purple Heart. He got it in combat.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: Not by subverting the Constitution of the United States. That's
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: Steve Cohen.
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a lunatic. He's a lunatic. The veteran's not
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: happy in the chat, by the way. If you're on
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: the audio podcast, join us sometime on Rumble, rumble.com slash
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: Vince at 8 a.m.
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: No.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: In fact, Peter Strzok is the enemy. He's the adversary.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: He's the guy who's trying to take down the Constitutional Republic,
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: to undermine the duly elected president of the United States.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: In Steve Cohen's eyes, he's a hero. Because Peter Strzok,
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: like Steve Cohen, is a rigger. They rig things for power.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: Steve Cohen had a rigged congressional district that conferred power
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: on him in an ill-gotten way. And now he's freaking
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: out that he's losing it. So of course he's making
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: common cause with Peter Strzok, who is trying to rig
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: our system against the voters on a national level.
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: Of course.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: That's why he says, you deserve a Purple Heart. Steve
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: Cohen's a tool. I've got a lot more fun evidence
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: of that. We'll go down memory lane in just a moment.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: I'm enthusiastic about the conclusion of Steve Cohen's time in Congress.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: We've got a lot to talk about, a lot to
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: talk about. Then we'll get to the Iran war too.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: All ahead on this edition of Vince. I want to
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: thank one of our great sponsors today, Pocket Hose Ballistic.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: I love the Pocket Hose. The Pocket Hose is great.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: You know why the Pocket Hose is great? Because every
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: year in my house, we would have to replace the
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: garden hose because it would just get all messed up.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: It would kink, tangle, burst. But you see the Pocket
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: Hose Ballistic, that's the upgrade that we've been looking for.
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: We love it because it's the toughest pocket hose ever built.
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: It's reinforced with a liquid crystal polymer used in bulletproof vests.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: So you know it's good. And we don't baby the hose.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: We drag it across the driveway. We yank it around
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: the house. We leave it out sometimes, although you don't
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: have to leave it out. And you probably shouldn't because
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: it's very easy to put away. That's what makes the
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: pocket hose so awesome. The pocket hose ballistic handles everything. Plus,
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: it comes with the pocket pivot for total freedom of
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: movement right at the spigot with full 360 degree rotation.
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: I move, it follows. The water flows. And now for
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: a limited time, when you purchase a new Pocket Hose Ballistic,
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: you'll get a free 360 degree rotating pocket pivot and
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: a free thumb drive nozzle. Just text Vince to 64000.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: That's Vince to 64000. And you'll get your two free
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: gifts with purchase. Text Vince to 64000. Message and data
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: rates may apply. Thank you to Pocket Hose.
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: So Steve Cohen, I think, is probably most famously remembered,
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: infamously remembered in this image. And I looked up video
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: of it, and there's really not good video of it because, well,
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: the cameras were in the way. There was a spray
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: of cameras in the way of him. Back in 2019,
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: they held a hearing in the House, and there was
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: an expectation that maybe Attorney General Barr would show up,
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: but he didn't show up at the time. So Steve Cohen,
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: in an effort to try and mock him, said, he's
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: a chicken, he's a chicken. And so Steve Cohen- decided
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: to get a bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken and eat
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: it on the floor of the house, resulting in this
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: disgusting photograph, as seen on rumble.com slash Vince. We have
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: to see a ridiculous looking human being eat. Luckily, the
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: image is not moving. Luckily, it's a still image. And
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: now it's gone. Now I've clicked away from it. But
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: that's how that guy was remembered, his stupid bucket of KFC.
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: That's the most consequential thing Steve Cohen ever did in Congress,
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: was eat chicken on the House floor.
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah. There he is. Steve Cohen. Steve Cohen also had
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: a meltdown this year. In the beginning of this year,
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: he called for President Trump to be wiped out He
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: wanted the president of the United States to be wiped out.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: Kind of sounds like a threat. You know, in the
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: midst of all these assassination attempts inspired by people like
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: Steve Cohen, you may perceive this language as being the
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: kind of thing that's led to the weak and vicious
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: minds attempting to take the president's life.
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: But here's Steve Cohen comparing January 6th of 2021 to 9-11,
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: Pearl Harbor, and the assassination of John F. Kennedy.
• 22:51
  Speaker 8: Here he is.
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: Watch.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: One date, somebody mentioned, dates will always remember it.
• 22:55
  Speaker 8: September date, January date, and Pearl Harbor. We'll never forget
• 22:59
  Speaker 8: November 22, 1963, of those of us.
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: Who are alive.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: I remember all the time. Whenever I think about it,
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: I start to tear up. I'm about to tear up now.
• 23:07
  Speaker 6: And the idea that he put his name over John
• 23:08
  Speaker 6: Kennedy's should never be forgotten, and he should be wiped out.
• 23:14
  Speaker 5: Wow.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: He should be wiped out. Did you hear the tone, too?
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: The tone was not... I don't even know what... I
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: don't even know how to describe that in any way
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: as innocent. He should be wiped out. That sounded like
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: bloodthirst from Steve Cohen. Man, I'm so glad this guy
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: is leaving. Aren't you glad this guy is leaving, Chet? Amazing.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: Just amazing. I love what Tennessee has done here. What
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: a gift. Steve Cohen also has been involved in attacking Americans.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: He says Americans suck. Illegal aliens are great. He announced
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: earlier this year that, you know, illegal aliens, they're not
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: really as bad as American citizens. Watch this. Cut eight.
• 23:52
  Speaker 8: People working in the front lines of local law enforcement
• 23:55
  Speaker 8: to protect our citizens from the worst of the worst.
• 23:58
  Speaker 8: The worst of the worst are not the immigrants. The
• 24:00
  Speaker 8: worst of the worst records show are native-born Americans, and
• 24:04
  Speaker 8: they are committing crimes that hurt our citizens and our cities.
• 24:08
  Speaker 8: And you're working against it, and thank you for that.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: Na, na, na, na. Na, na, na, na. Hey, hey, hey, goodbye. Goodbye,
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: Steve Cohen, you jackass. The guy says Americans are worse
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: than illegals. Thank God this guy is leaving. Thank God. Finally,
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: just to demonstrate how much this dude loves illegals, Steve
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: Cohen said that the Save America Act, which you and
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: I have been fighting for, the bare minimum of election integrity,
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: would make it harder, here he is admitting it out loud,
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: would make it harder for people to vote Democrat. Well,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: why is that, Steve Cohen? Cut nine, watch this.
• 24:47
  Speaker 6: His bill would make it more difficult for people who
• 24:51
  Speaker 6: generally are not inclined to vote for him to vote.
• 24:55
  Speaker 6: It would make it harder to get, you have to
• 24:57
  Speaker 6: show identification and some of that identification is passports or
• 25:00
  Speaker 6: birth certificates that are hard to come up with and
• 25:02
  Speaker 6: most difficult for people who are less likely to vote
• 25:05
  Speaker 6: for Trump.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: If we force Americans to prove they are who they
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: say they are, Democrats will lose elections, says Steve Cohen.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: It reminds me of the Katie Porter clip from earlier
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: this week where she's like, well, all these actual Californians
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: are leaving our state. So we just have to import
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: lots of illegal aliens in order to replace them. From
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: top to bottom, these Democrats have gone all in on
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: election rigging and they say it out loud. They're not
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: in any way hiding it. It's not some sort of
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: like subterranean conspiracy theory. It is the open conspiracy. They
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: don't want the Save America Act because they know that
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: election rigging is the way that they obtain power. I
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: don't know how much more we can beat this Trump,
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: which is why it's so crazy to me that to
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: this very second, John Thune, continues not to have the
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: Save America Act presented to us. In fact, on that,
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: I wasn't even going to mention this today, but I'm
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: going to mention it now that I'm thinking about it.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: Let me show you a story. This is great from
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: our White House correspondent, Reagan Reese, the great Reagan Reese
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: at the Daily Caller. Here's what she has up. This
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: is just in the last 24 hours. Turning Point USA.
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: Prepare yourself. This is wonderful. Turning Point USA has now
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: set its sights on John Thune, after the win in
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: Indiana this week. This is great. So what we have
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: is this. Turning Point USA Action is preparing the primary
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: Senate Majority Leader and South Dakota Senator John Thune after
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: notching that major win in Indiana this week. Because remember,
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: Turning Point, just like you, just like me, just like
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: the President of the United States, but they had the
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: actual activism on the ground here, was fighting in Indiana
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: to throw out all of the incumbents who failed us,
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: who failed the Republican voters in Indiana, failed normal people
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: across the country who wanted to regain ground against the
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: Democrats who've been rigging all of our elections and congressional
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: districts in particular. And all we were asking from Indiana
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: was two. Tennessee just did one. We were asking for
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: two of those rigged Democrat seats to be taken away.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: And Republicans failed to do that. So President Trump and company,
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: including Turning Point USA, said, we're taking you out. So
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: After that happened, after that happened, big grassroots organizations like
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: TPUSA and Club for Growth, they pledged to primary those
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: Indiana politicians. On Tuesday, at least five of the seven
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: were all tossed. Now TPUSA action is telling the Daily Caller,
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: telling Reagan Reese, their work isn't done. If other states
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: don't redistrict or if Republicans like Thune don't pass the
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: Save America Act, they are prepared to turn their attention
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: to those states and those politicians. From Tyler Boyer, this
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: is the chief operating officer at TPUSA Action. Quote, a
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: lot of Republicans will lose their jobs if they don't
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: get on board, if they don't listen to their voters,
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: if they don't do the right thing and fight the
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: manipulation of the Democrats. Other states that decide not to
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: do this, particularly in the South, after the Supreme Court ruling,
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: should be on watch. Guys like Thune should be on watch.
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: They're not getting the will of the people done with
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: the Save America Act. Those are the two biggest targets
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: here on who might be next. You got that? So
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: turning point, remember, in the wake of Charlie's assassination, the
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: American people donated massive amounts of money to Turning Point's operations,
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: and for good reason. The point was to carry on
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: Charlie's legacy, including and especially in political activism, to achieve
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: the political goals necessary to make America great again. So
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: all that money flows in. How is Turning Point using
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: all of the generosity of the American people who want
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: to see Charlie's mission fulfilled? It's to get rid of
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: the people who are impediments to election integrity. That's it.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: And I love it because What he's talking about is
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: exactly right. If you want to get to election integrity,
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: how do we do that? We regain terrain on the
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: map that's been stolen by Democrats. That's what Tennessee just
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: did yesterday. And then you also get rid of the
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: impediments in the United States Senate who are right now
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: blocking us from having the bare minimum. The bare minimum
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: being voter ID. Voter ID. Just prove you are who
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: you say you are. Only American citizens can vote. Only
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: American citizens. So when you register to vote, you prove
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: you're an American citizen. Boom, you're of age. You're an
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: American citizen. You can register to vote.
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: You're good.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: Non-citizens, purge them from the voter rolls. We've got a lot.
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: We've got many thousands of non-citizens on the voter rolls.
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: We know that thanks to the Department of Justice, which,
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: by the way, has been doing great work. Get rid
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: of them. Get them off the voter rolls. prosecute any
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: election official who aids and abets in election rigging. That's
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: a part of the Save America Act. Further consequences for
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: election officials who subvert our system. This is all built in.
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: And of course, the president wants to include these other
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: elements too, like keeping men out of women's sports, protecting
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: children from what the president refers to as mutilization, typically
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: known as mutilation, but we're adding mutilization to the dictionary now,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: thanks to the president's efforts. So this is this is
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: all good stuff. It's what I mean, it's like the
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: American people broadly support this and you can't do it. OK, fine.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: We can get rid of you then. We can get
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: rid of you then. And Turning Point has now promised
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: that's where we're going. That's what we're up to. It's
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: good news. Now, Thune, of course, is not up for
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: election this year, but placing pressure here on all of
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: these senators, including to replace Thune in leadership, if he's
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: going to fail us, fine by me. keep the pressure up.
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: And that includes for us. We should keep the pressure
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: up as well. We want the Save America Act. Let's
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: stay on that drumbeat and let's continue to make this
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: a part of the DNA of what it means to
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: be an American voter that cares about your country. Election integrity,
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: minimum threshold, minimum threshold for anybody who wants my vote.
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: Election integrity. All right. More ahead on the program, I
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: want to get to uh well let's get to the
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: developments in the iran war because uh if you've been
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: following the headlines like i have it's it's been head
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: spinning man it's been it just been it feels like
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: it's just going in a million directions let me uh
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: walk you through i'll walk you through in a rapid
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: fire chronologically the way things have played out this week
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: and what we can expect next uh it's very interesting
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: more ahead on this edition of vince on a friday
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: it's great to have you with us i can't even
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: believe we got to friday that this quickly this week
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: hey uh Let me tell you about Quince. I love Quince.
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: Quince is a great, great operation. You know, lately here
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: in my house, for me particularly, I've been trying to
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: simplify the wardrobe, just choosing pieces that are comfortable, things
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: that I can quickly throw on and look good, I think.
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: It makes getting dressed so much easier each day. And
• 31:54

• 32:07
  Speaker 1: wear that a lot. And I was like, yeah, what's
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: the problem? Is this just a dude thing, by the way?
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: I think dudes wear the same stuff a lot. It's just,
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: I just wear what's comfortable. I wear what I like.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: And Quince has got it all. They can do that.

  Speaker 1: let's see here. Anybody, do we have any anglers in
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: the chat? Let's see. I have at least once used
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: dog hair, says Larry, but mostly pheasant feathers.
• 34:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: Use what you have. Use what you have, says Ascendi.
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: I agree. I think that's right. Deer hair, says Sharp. Yeah. Now,
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: fly fishing. Fly fishing, if you haven't tried this, ladies
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: and gentlemen, fly fishing is like one of the most
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: therapeutic things you could possibly do. And fly tying is cool, too.
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: I haven't really done that much fly tying. I've got
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: the fly tying set. I've tied a couple of flies.
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: It came out okay. It came out okay. But it's
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: an amazing thing. It's just really good. I don't know.
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: There's something spiritual about it. It just quiets your mind.
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: It keeps you really focused. My problem with fly fishing
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: is I can do kind of like a full cast
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: pretty well, but the roll cast, I'm still trying to
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: get it down. So I need a lot of clearance
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: behind me for my cast. Otherwise, this thing's getting snagged
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: in a tree. That's my issue. So I got to
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: get back out there on the water at some point
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: and catch some fish. I love it. It's really cool.
• 35:43
  Speaker 5: Really cool.
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: Let's get to more important things. Yes, time flies is
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: very therapeutic. I totally agree, Craig. Let's get into what's
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: going on with Iran. What's going on with Iran? President
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: Trump just told Fox News that we could have an
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: Iran deal within a week. He said within a week. Now, granted, like, look,
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: if you think about the president, what he's been saying
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: on this subject, he's pretty routinely been saying it could
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: come any moment. It could be here in a second.
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: We could have it in a moment. So, you know, look,
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: I think the president, there's a bit of, I think, forecasting.
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: The way I'm viewing this is like the president, when
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: he says things like this, there's wish casting and forecasting
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: going on. Like, he's very hopeful that this could occur,
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: but it's actually not a full-blown commitment that it's going
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: to be nailed down because it really takes... Iran agreeing
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: to these conditions, you know, we've got them in a chokehold.
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: I mean, dude, why don't you tap out, cry uncle,
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: and just give up your stupid nuclear program? We could
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: have a deal in a minute, forget a week. But
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: the president told Fox News' Brett Barry yesterday, we could
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: have a deal within a week, he said in a
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: phone interview with Brett. Also, the Pakistanis are saying, because
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: they're the mediators to all of this, and they have been,
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: they've played mediator, that the U.S. and Iran- is close
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: to a temporary truce right now, Pakistani officials claim. A
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: temporary truce.
• 37:06
  Speaker 4: The U.S.
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: And Iran are close to a temporary agreement to halt
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: the war in the Middle East, officials in Pakistan claimed
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: on Thursday, as diplomatic activity gathered fresh momentum after a
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: near breakdown of the current ceasefire earlier this week. Officials
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: in Islamabad said a very basic interim deal could be
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: reached as early as this weekend, and that Tehran was
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: reviewing a U.S., However, Trump and Pakistan have consistently suggested
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: a breakthrough is imminent and weeks of previous efforts to
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: negotiate a permanent end to hostilities have made little real progress.
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: So in Pakistan, they're thinking maybe by the weekend. And
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: then there's the Iranian side of the equation. The Iranians
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: are claiming that talks are ongoing, according to The New
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: York Times, but their sticking point is kind of the
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: key sticking point, ladies and gentlemen, the nukes. The nukes,
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: three senior Iranian officials telling the New York Times, because
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: the New York Times, of course, talks to Iran, that
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: Tehran and the United States are discussing a one-page plan
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: for both sides to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: end hostilities for 30 days, a 30-day pause. Again, this
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: would just be an upgraded ceasefire. I don't really know
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: functionally how this is dramatically different, but maybe the Strait
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: of Hormuz is wide open. If it is wide open
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: at that point and the Iranians stop sending their, you know,
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: demented little terrorists after every ship that tries to go
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: through the Strait, then yeah, well, that would help the
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: global economy for sure. But that would be an upgraded
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: version of the ceasefire for 30 days while they try
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: to reach a comprehensive deal. The talks over a short-term
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: agreement are continuing, the official said. Negotiators are trading proposals
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: over how to describe the framework for a potential permanent deal.
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: The three Iranian officials who are close to the negotiations
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: and spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive diplomacy
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: said a key obstacle was the U.S. demand for commitments
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: in advance on the fate of Iran's nuclear program and
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: its stockpile of highly enriched uranium. Well, I'm telling you,
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: this is the whole ballgame. And Iran says it's a
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: sticking point, which means Iran is saying we don't want
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: to give up our nukes. The president's been really clear
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: about this. You want all this to end? You want
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: this chaos to come to an end? Give us the
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: enriched uranium. Swear off any more uranium enrichment at all.
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: You're done. You're done. You do that, we're off to
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: the ballgame. You don't do that, we're going to keep
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: punching you in the face. So you pick one. You
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: want to go, you want to be off to the
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: ballgame or you want to get punched in the face?
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: Those are your choices. Choose wisely. That's the president's offer.
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: And so Iran is telling the New York Times, yeah,
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: the sticking point is the degree to which we enrich uranium. No,
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: it's not a sticking point. The president's position is clear.
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: Don't enrich any. That's the position. The reason you're at
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: the negotiating table is not because you love President Trump.
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: It's because you desperately want your economy back open. It's
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: because your military is at the bottom of the sea.
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: Iran is here, the regime, I mean, not the people.
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: The Iranian regime is at the table under duress. They
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: don't want to be at this table with Trump to
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: begin with. The reason they're there now is because President
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: Trump has forced them to be. So that means he's
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: got all the leverage in this conversation. The fact that
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: they're still dead ending on the uranium stuff is a
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: real sign, of course, of what they've always been, which
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: is a nuclear thirsty terrorist regime. But if you want
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: to actually get out of this, get out of it.
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: Get out of the nuke business and we're off to
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: the races. So that's the state of the talks. Now,
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: what about the state of the blasts going each way? Well,
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: this sequence of events, I feel like the media has
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: not done a very good job of explaining this. So
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: I'm going to try and give it to you as
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: tightly as I can. Earlier this week, an Iranian oil
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: tanker tried to run our blockade. It tried to just
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: go sprint right through our blockade. Now, Chet, you don't
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: have to be a ship captain to understand how stupid
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: this is. You don't jump into your Iranian oil tanker
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: and try and blitz the blockade. You don't blitz the blockade.
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: So they tried, and you know what we did? We
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: sent a fighter jet in, and we blew up the rudder.
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: We disabled the rudder on the ship, and so it's
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: dead in the water. It's just sitting there now. And
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: So it failed to comply with repeated warnings from the
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: United States military. The Central Command released a statement saying
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: all of this. The U.S. Navy has already turned around
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: 52 different commercial vessels since the start of the blockade.
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: That was on April 13th. This idiot tried to make
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: a run, and so we blew up the rudder. So
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: in response, Iran began targeting U.S. warships I feel like
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: we were pretty generous. We were very clear about the terms.
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: You can't blitz the blockade. It's a blockade. That's the point.
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: You try and run through it, we're going to stop you.
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: So they stopped. This is for Iran, by the way.
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: It's for Iran's ports. So we stopped this Iranian tanker.
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: Iran started targeting U.S. warships. And CENTCOM released a statement
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: yesterday explaining the sequence of events here. So U.S. forces
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: intercepted unprovoked Iranian attacks and responded with self-defense strikes as U.S.
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: Navy guided missile destroyers transited the Strait of Hormuz to
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: the Gulf of Oman. Yesterday, May 7th, Iranian forces launched
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: multiple missiles, drones, and small boats at three of our
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: ships that were transiting the Strait. No U.S. assets were
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: struck at all, at all. That's how good we are,
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: and that's how bad they are.
• 43:01
  Speaker 3: U.S.
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: Central Command eliminated inbound threats, so we took out the threats.
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: And we targeted Iranian military facilities responsible for attacking American forces,
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: including missile and drone launch sites, command and control locations,
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance nodes. CENTCOM does not seek escalation,
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: but remains positioned and ready to protect American forces. So
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: we just blew up all the sites that were launching
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: stuff at us. And the president's position is clear. The
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: ceasefire is not over. But every time you throw these
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: feckless little limp-wristed attacks at us, we'll just destroy the
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: source of those attacks. So we did.
• 43:38
  Speaker 4: We did.
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: And the president yesterday described in practically poetic terms precisely
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: how this all played out. It was really great. Here's
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: the president's true social description. He said three world-class American
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: destroyers just transited very successfully out of the Strait of
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: Hormuz under fire. There was no damage done to the
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: three destroyers, but great damage done to the Iranian attackers.
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: They were completely destroyed, along with numerous small boats, which
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: are being used to take the place of their fully
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: decapitated navy. These boats went to the bottom of the sea,
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: quickly and efficiently. Missiles were shot at our destroyers and
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: were easily knocked down. Likewise, drones came and were incinerated
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: while in the air. They dropped ever so beautifully down
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: to the ocean, very much like a butterfly dropping to
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: its grave. A normal country would have allowed these destroyers
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: to pass, but Iran is not a normal country. They
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: are led by lunatics, and if they had the chance
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: to use a nuclear weapon, they would do it without question.
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: But they'll never have that opportunity. And just like we
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: knocked them out again today, we'll knock them out a
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: lot harder and a lot more violently in the future
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: if they don't get their deal signed fast. Our three destroyers,
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: with their wonderful crews, will now rejoin our naval blockade,
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: which is truly a wall of steel. President Donald J.
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: Trump.
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: Like a butterfly dropping to its grave. The dude's a poet.
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: I didn't even know. I didn't even know it. It's
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: so funny. It's like a butterfly dropping to its grave.
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: President of the United States. Yes, official words from the president.
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: So yeah, we took out the threat. And we struck
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: a bunch of their locations yesterday. The Kashem port, the
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: Bandar Abbas, Bandar Kargan, all these... various Iranian locations that
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: posed a threat to us. Now, we also learned a
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: little bit more this week about why it is that
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: we had a pause at all on Project Freedom, on
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: Project Freedom. So remember, the president basically set up a
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: zone defense in the area to get Project Freedom, basically
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: to get commercial ship traffic moving except from those Iranian ports,
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: which continue to be blockaded. And It stopped. The president,
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: it was kind of a head spinner, wasn't it? I
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: mentioned it to you earlier this week. I was like, well,
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: the president must feel like he's closer to a deal
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: or something. There's got to be some sort of behind
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: the scenes activity going on here that would dictate why
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: we'd have to pause Project Freedom. He says the blockade continues,
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: but Project Freedom doesn't for now. It's on pause. Well,
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: we just found out, I think, a lot more interesting
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: detail about that. There's a report here from the Wall
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: Street Journal about why exactly this happened. And it involves
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: the Gulf states. It involves UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait. Basically
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: what had occurred, according to this reporting, is that Iran
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: continued to act belligerent. And remember they fired all of
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: those missiles in the direction of UAE this week. And
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: UAE took some strikes, but most of this was shot down.
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: But the Iranians are spazzing out. They're like attacking all
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: of these locations all around them, including these various Arab
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: states that surround them. And the reaction from the Pentagon
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: that I played for you, that included Pete Hegseth and
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: General Kane, was essentially, look, the ceasefire is not violated.
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: They're just lashing out. We just want a deal. this
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: little nonsense, we'll take care of it. But the ceasefire continues.
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: That was their position. Well, apparently that led to some
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: consternation from some of the Gulf states because they really
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: wanted the United States to have like some sort of
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: forceful response against Iran to protect them. So the reporting
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: from the Wall Street Journal is that Saudi Arabia and
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: Kuwait had essentially shut down the United States military's use
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: of our own bases and airspace, that area, in in
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: order to basically say, like, hey, we don't want to
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: be a part of this for now if you're not
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: going to defend us. Saudi Arabia and Kuwait have now
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: lifted those restrictions, says the Wall Street Journal, on the U.S.
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: military's use of their bases in airspace imposed after the
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: start of the American operation to reopen the Strait of Hormuz,
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: according to U.S. officials and Saudi officials, removing a hurdle
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: that had tripped up President Trump's effort to move ships
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: through the vital waterway. The Trump administration is now looking
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: to restart the operation to guide the commercial ships with
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: naval and air support that it had paused for 36
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: hours this week. It isn't clear when this could happen,
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: though Pentagon officials gave a timeline of as early as
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: this week, meaning at any moment. The United States operation
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: to force open the strait relied on an enormous fleet
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: of aircraft to protect commercial ships from Iranian missiles and drones.
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: making Saudi and Kuwaiti bases and airspace critical to its execution.
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: But the mission set off the biggest dispute in Saudi-American
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: military relations in recent years, triggering a spate of high-level
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: phone calls between the president himself and the kingdom's crown prince,
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: Mohammed bin Salman, in order to resolve this. And apparently
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: that happened. So they had a phone call. Things got
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: set up. Basically, they had a phone call. The de
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: facto Saudi leader conveyed his concerns, advised the president of
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: the decision, and the president was able to get everything
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: back up and running. So once again, this is kind
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: of one of those moments where the president gets involved,
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: everything gets back up and running, we're good to go.
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: But in case you're wondering, what was that? Why did
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: that why do we get that pause? Apparently, it was
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: just the president, as always, he's juggling chainsaws. The guy
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: is trying to navigate international diplomacy, foreign policy, national security,
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: big foreign conflict all at the same time. So this
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: is this is just the president. kind of navigating all
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: of this. But things are back up and running. It
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: looks like we could have Project Freedom back up and
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: running literally at any second. Perhaps by the time you
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: hear this podcast, it's all good to go. But the
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: president navigating towards a deal. And then finally, in the summary,
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: as I started with, we're looking at perhaps within the
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: next week, according to the president, perhaps by this weekend,
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: according to Pakistan, and the Iranians are still being stubborn
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: jackasses saying they want to hold on to their nuclear program. But,
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: you know, let's get rid of that. Let's get rid
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: of that. and we could be good to go. So
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: I'll keep you apprised of that as we get meaningful
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: updates on that subject. Hopefully that was a good, tight
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: description for you. That's what I wanted to give you.
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: Because I was looking at some of the headlines. I
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: was like, wait a second. How did this happen? What
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: is this? And I feel like I have a much
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: better handle on where we are right now.
• 50:20
  Speaker 8: Okay.
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: More on other things that are going on in the world.
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: I have an update for you. Yesterday, I told you
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: about the United States Department of Justice going after the
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: Soros prosecutors. Like, Steve Discano in Fairfax County. And there's others,
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: Larry Krasner, Get Ready in Philadelphia. There's a lot of
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: these guys. They're all across the country, these Soros prosecutors.
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: And the reason the Justice Department is going after them
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: is because they keep letting illegal aliens free and American
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: citizens don't get the same sort of privileges that illegal
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: aliens do. So there's an uneven application of justice here.
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: And so it's a civil rights violation, which is why
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: Harmeet Dhillon is on their ass, which is great. She's
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: going after Fairfax County Prosecutor Steve Discano right now. And
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: the big headline case here is the death of Stephanie Minter.
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: Stephanie Minter was murdered earlier this year, stabbed to death
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: in a bus stop in Northern Virginia by an illegal
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: alien who this Soros-funded prosecutor released over and over and
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: over again until he killed Stephanie. Cheryl Minter, I played
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: some audio from her yesterday. It was a flashback to
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: when she had talked to the press about all of this.
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: And she's just been absolutely devastated. She really... blames Steve
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: Descano for the fact that her daughter is not with
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: us anymore. And yesterday, that great reporter, Nick Minna, caught
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: up with Cheryl Minter again and got her reaction to
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: the fact that the Trump Justice Department is finally going
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: after this guy, Descano, and these other Soros-funded prosecutors. Let's
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: take a listen to Cheryl Minter and what she had
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: to say about the breaking news. Cut to him.
• 51:54
  Speaker 5: Cheryl Minter's daughter, Stephanie, was murdered at a Highblood Valley
• 51:58
  Speaker 5: bus stop in Fairfax County earlier this year. And police
• 52:02
  Speaker 5: arrested Abdul Jalloh, a violent repeat offender who is in
• 52:06
  Speaker 5: the country illegally. Now, Cheryl filed a complaint with the U.S.
• 52:10
  Speaker 5: Department of Justice, arguing if Fairfax County Commonwealth's attorney, Steve Descana,
• 52:14
  Speaker 5: wasn't intentionally lenient on illegal immigrant suspects, her daughter would
• 52:20
  Speaker 5: still be alive today.
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: I truly miss her.
• 52:23
  Speaker 5: I miss her laugh, her smile, and the fact that
• 52:29
  Speaker 5: I'll never see her.
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: Getting hurt so deep, so deep.
• 52:34
  Speaker 5: Cheryl's daughter, Stephanie, a single mom, was at a bus
• 52:38
  Speaker 5: stop in Fairfax County the night she was killed. Police
• 52:41
  Speaker 5: charged a violent, illegal immigrant named Abdul Jallo, who is
• 52:45
  Speaker 5: well known to police with her murder. Last year, police
• 52:48
  Speaker 5: warned the Fairfax County Commonwealth's attorney three separate times. that
• 52:52
  Speaker 5: if Jala was released, he would hurt or even kill
• 52:54
  Speaker 5: someone else. Despite those warnings, decisions by Commonwealth's attorney, Steve
• 52:59
  Speaker 5: Discano's office allowed Jala to walk free and allegedly kill
• 53:03
  Speaker 5: Stephanie Minter. Up until just a few weeks ago, Steve
• 53:07
  Speaker 5: Discano's own website proclaimed that quote, wherever possible, Steve will
• 53:11
  Speaker 5: make charging and plea decisions that limit or avoid immigration consequences.
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: By the way, I just, This is maybe a product
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: of our editing here on this clip. I want to
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: make sure you can hear her reaction to Descano actually
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: conducting the investigation. She says it's bittersweet because she doesn't
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: have her daughter anymore. This is what she sounded like
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: as she described her reaction here. Take a look. I've
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: got this pulled up. Take a look at her reaction
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: to this. Live today.
• 53:44
  Speaker 5: You filed a complaint with the Department of Justice. And
• 53:49
  Speaker 5: now the DOJ is investigating. How does that feel that
• 53:52
  Speaker 5: your complaint has helped result into an investigation into the
• 53:56
  Speaker 5: Commonwealth's attorney's office?
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: The basis is great. I had to lose my daughter
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: for it to happen.
• 54:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: So you've got a two-sided sword there.
• 54:07
  Speaker 2: I truly....
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: She loves that they're going after him. But she would
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: not in a million years Not in a million years
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: want to lose her daughter again this way. She wants
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: her back. It's hard to blame her. I mean, the
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: fight that she's waging now is not to bring her
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: daughter back. It's to prevent anybody else's daughter from being
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: killed by an illegal. Cheryl Minter's trying to get that
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: Soros-funded prosecutor recalled at the same time. She's trying to
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: stage a recall campaign. Good. To get rid of that guy.
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: But I love the beginning of this. I love that
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: Harmeet Dhillon's going after all these Soros prosecutors. And there's
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: Cheryl Minter, man, who's lost her daughter to this. still
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: staying in the fight. By the way, if she can
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: stay in the fight, the rest of us should absolutely
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: stay in the fight, given what she's gone through. If
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: she can stay in this fight, God bless.
• 54:59
  Speaker 6: Her for it.
• 55:01
  Speaker 5: Man.
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: I've got one more big story for you this week.
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: Another kind of fake scandal of the week. Chad, do
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: you want the audio? You want the fake scandal of
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: the week bumper? I can do it for you if
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: you want. We've got a fake scandal of the week
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: this week. Even before I get your reaction, maybe I'll
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: just dive into it. Here we go, ladies and gentlemen.
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: And now it's time for the left's fake scandal of
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: the week. Extra, extra. Yeah, there's a big scandal going on,
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: big fake scandal going on that there's like taxpayer funding
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: going into President Trump's ballroom project. And the media is
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: the media is going absolutely apoplectic about this. I could
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: just show you some of the headlines. This is what
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: it looks like at the moment, right here on just
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: a Google News. Senate Republican fears $ 1 billion for White
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: House ballroom represents political landmine. NBC, Republicans propose $ 1 billion
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: in taxpayer dollars to secure Trump ballroom. Trump's ballroom is
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: becoming a political boondoggle. Even the Fox News headline here,
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: once touted as privately funded, Republicans sneak in taxpayer cash
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: for Trump's ballroom project. I... You know, I thought, this
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: is one of those stories where I kept seeing it.
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: I was like, this is stupid, everybody. This is really stupid.
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: And I'll tell you why it's so completely stupid. The money,
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: the taxpayer money is not for the ballroom. Why don't,
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: these guys should have called me. I could have told
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: them a million years ago before they jumped in on
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: this idiotic scandal. The ballroom is not where the taxpayer
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: funding is going. The ballroom is privately funded by benefactors
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: the same way so many great American projects have been funded.
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: All the monuments on the National Mall in Washington, D.C.,
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: all that. This is like privately funded by rich benefactors
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: who just love the country, want to donate something back
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: to it. This is not what this is. The money
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: that they're talking about is going to build the national
• 57:02
  Speaker 1: security bunker at the White House. I told you last
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: year when the president was launching this, I was like, look,
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: the East Wing, which they just tore down. They tore
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: down the East Wing of the White House. When they
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: tore it down, remember, they told people in the Treasury Department,
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: don't take photos of the demolition. Don't be taking photos
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: outside of the demo. Why were they telling people not
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: to take photos of the demo? Is it because they
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: were embarrassed by the construction? No, they weren't embarrassed by it.
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: They're telling people not to take photos for national security reasons.
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: It is a well-known fact that under the east wing
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: of the White House is the national security bunker for
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: the president of the United States. In the process of
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: doing the construction of a brand new gorgeous ballroom, underneath it,
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: they're building an epic world-class national security bunker for the
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: president of the United States to conduct the affairs of
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: the American people and safeguard this country. That's it. The
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: taxpayer money is for the military operation. It's not for
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: the ballroom. These jackasses just keep lying about it. And
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: it's so obvious to anybody who's been paying attention what
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: they're up to. In fact, yesterday, some reporter asked the
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: president about this. Why are the taxpayers funding the ballroom now?
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: And here's the president explaining in so many words, it
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: has nothing to do with the ballroom, you nutneck. Here
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: he is, cut 11, listen.
• 58:31
  Speaker 6: We said that taxpayers could not pay for the ballroom
• 58:34
  Speaker 6: at the White House.
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: Why should taxpayers now be on the hook for a
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: billion dollars?
• 58:39
  Speaker 3: Well, they're not, because that's for many other projects. That's
• 58:42
  Speaker 3: for projects having to do with safety in a certain
• 58:46
  Speaker 3: section of the White House grounds. That's not all for
• 58:49
  Speaker 3: the ballroom. And we're putting up $ 400 million to do
• 58:53
  Speaker 3: the ballroom section of the ballroom. We are putting that
• 58:56
  Speaker 3: up privately. I am doing it along with other patriots
• 59:00
  Speaker 3: that love our country. But they want to do certain
• 59:03
  Speaker 3: things militarily with respect to the ballroom, having nothing to
• 59:07
  Speaker 3: do with us or having to do with the safety
• 59:10
  Speaker 3: of the president. So having to do with a lot
• 59:12
  Speaker 3: of things. But we are going to have a safe ballroom.
• 59:16
  Speaker 3: It's under construction. It's ahead of schedule. It's right on budget.
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: By the way, have you seen this anywhere? Chat, have
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: you seen this in your social media feeds? Trump said
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: it would be privately funded. Now he's taking our money
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: and now he's building this ballroom. Nobody wants this ballroom
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: and they're taking taxpayer money. It's just, it's just what,
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: Bluski must be going freaking crazy. I'm not even on Bluski,
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: but I guarantee you they're going crazy about all this.
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: He's taking his taxpayer money. Sorry, I'm getting worked up.
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: He's taking all this taxpayer money. He's not taking taxpayer money.
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: He's giving you a gift of a ballroom. And the taxpayers,
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: insofar as we're involved at all, we're upgrading the national
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: security bunker for the continuity of our government. Anybody who
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: watched this show, by the way, for any length of
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 1: time would have known this. We talked about this last year.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: In fact, I intuited it immediately. The second I saw
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: they were working on the East Wing, I was like,
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: there's no way. You know this. There's no way Trump
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: is doing this project without rebuilding that national security bunker.
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: There's no way. They're not just building Then they're going
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: to leave some crappy 1950s bunker with like, you know,
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: some old computers and printers with the, remember the printer
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: paper with the little circles on the edge of the
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: paper you had to rip off just to help track
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: the paper through? That's what I envisioned the old bunker
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: looking like. Some weird, you know, all the screens are green.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: Like there's no color whatsoever. That's probably not what it
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: looks like, but they really need to upgrade it. So
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: I'm glad they're doing it. I'm glad they're doing it.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 1: National security is one of the few things I'm interested
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: in paying for with my tax dollars. It's amazing. Anyway,
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: as always, great to have you with us, man. This
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: week flew. It totally flew. Holy cow. Appreciate you being here.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 1: As always, I hope you have a fantastic American weekend.
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: God bless you. Love having you here. The best audience anywhere.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 1: I'll be back with you on Monday. The Dan Bongino Show.
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 4: I think a lot of people are underestimating the Trump
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 4: effect in this midterm. You've heard it yourself. Act like
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 4: I'm on the ballot. Why is he saying that? You
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 4: think he doesn't know what he's doing? That is the
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 4: X factor. Folks, elections are a math issue.
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 3: That is it.
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 4: This is not a football game.
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: If you vote, we will win. It is not complicated.
