• 1:00
  Speaker 4: Sid and Trump is over in Turkey, right now dominating
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: the NATO summit, handshakes, making deals, straight talk on the
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: world stage. And while he's there, our military is simultaneously
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: doing their thing. Iran decided to fire on ships in
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: the Strait of Hormuz, so the United States responded by
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: hitting more than eighty Iranian military targets boom precision strikes,
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: sending a very clear message and looks like that ceasefire
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: may not be holding up any much, very much longer,
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: I should say, anyway, so as I'd like to call
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: him Editrompitos and Aaldus Magnus, the forty fifth to forty
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: seventh president of these United States, el President and Donald J. Trump.
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: He's out there grinding for America while the usual crowd
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: back at home is losing their minds. Right, Trump just
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: keeps proving why he's probably one of the best deal
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: makers we've seen in a very long time. Despite the TDS, right,
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: the Trump derangement syndrome, people are I think waking up
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: and realizing that he's he's getting a whole lot done. Anyway,
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: I always appreciate Trump being strong on the world stage,
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: strong on results. Familia. We have a stacked show tonight,
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: a lot to discuss There's a lot going on, so

• 2:21
  Speaker 4: grab yourself a cafecito and casito. I love casitos. Because
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: we're going deep on the Middle East, as well as
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: what it means for oil prices your wallet, which seemingly
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: have been going down lately. We're also going to talk
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: about the socialist's latest targets in Michigan and Wisconsin. I
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: got plenty more. This is gonna be a good one,
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: so don't miss it. The whole show. I think you're
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: gonna enjoy. But first, rape allegations. Rape allegations have been
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: made against Graham Platner, the Senate candidate in Maine, and finally,
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: some Democrats seem to be snapped into reality. Or maybe
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: it was just the brutal polling and prediction markets screaming
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: he's about to lose. As Trump would say, baguely, baguely,
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: it's gonna be huge. So what happens from here on out,
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: I don't know, but I'm going to tell you what
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: this woman said. The accuser was on CNN and here's
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: what she had to say.
• 3:18
  Speaker 6: Let me be as direct as I can.
• 3:24
  Speaker 7: Did grand plan or reave view by definition?
• 3:27
  Speaker 6: Yes, absolutely, because he had non consensual sex with you.
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, forced himself on you.
• 3:37
  Speaker 6: After you know, and.
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: Fall him off.
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 3:41
  Speaker 7: He violated multiple layers of consent that night by coming
• 3:45
  Speaker 7: into my home when I asked him not to, and
• 3:49
  Speaker 7: by advancing on me when I told him not to,
• 3:53
  Speaker 7: and furthermore another incident that I had told him.
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: Not to do and with protection.
• 3:59
  Speaker 8: Yeah. Yeah.
• 4:01
  Speaker 7: So yeah, by the way that my IRVOR system reacted
• 4:06
  Speaker 7: to this experience.
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: Absolutely, wow, bombshell, right, I mean, this is a big deal.
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: I can't imagine a candidate staying in a race after
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: a woman's on CNN with Jake Tapper saying that the
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: guy raped her. Whether it's true or not, these aren't
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: the type of things that you typically recover from, right,
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: People aren't going to go and pull the lever. But
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: what's interesting is it took to get to this When
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: other women were saying that they were assaulted by Graham Platner,
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: and they had made all sorts of allegations, CNN wouldn't
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: give them a platform. Nobody was doing the interviews there was.
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: I don't know so many different things that went on, right,
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: It's not like there weren't any warning signs to let
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: us know red flags, as women like to say, this
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: guy was on that dating website, or it's not a
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: dating website. Actually it's like a video sharing website that's
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: popular with children called Kick, and apparently he was actively
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: using it for ten straight years. People say that's where
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: you go to pick up little kids. I don't know
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: how true that it is, but that's messed up if
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: it's true. Campaign director on his campaign quit saying, oh,
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: we can't recover from this. I mean, pretty scary, right
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: when the captain jumps off the ship. Other women have
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: made similar allegations, not necessarily about rape, but other things
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: that he was doing that were sordid, sord id. I
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: guess nobody cared. Right. All of that was no problem.
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: But once the prediction markets like cal she say he's
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: gonna lose all of a sudden, he's gotta go. And
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: that's exactly what his Democrat colleagues are saying now, the
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: same ones that were walking away from reporters when all
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: of this stuff came to light a month ago, they
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: were walking away saying whatever, Bernie Sanders, I think Grant
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: Plutton is going to be a terrific us senator. All right,
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: open on Sanders healthcare is the right. What a douche?
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: What a douche? Now you got a whole bunch of
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: people that are very mad at him. Yeah, listen to this.
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: Jake Tapper goes on explaining some of the other things
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: that Graham Platner said. Listen to this.
• 6:07
  Speaker 6: Rape is a real thing. If you're so worried about
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: it to buy Kevlar underwear, you'd think you might not
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: get blacked out fucked up around people you aren't comfortable with. Right,
• 6:18
  Speaker 6: What did you think when you saw that?
• 6:20
  Speaker 7: I thought, here's a man who was drunk and who
• 6:25
  Speaker 7: by dictionary definition, raped me, and he's blaming drunk women.
• 6:31
  Speaker 7: So I just felt like that was a very odd
• 6:35
  Speaker 7: take to have on that. And I also feel like
• 6:39
  Speaker 7: with all of the comments that he made about women
• 6:42
  Speaker 7: sexual assault, rape, even you know, the comments that he
• 6:47
  Speaker 7: had made that was in the New York Times article
• 6:49
  Speaker 7: about you know, threatening people with rape, Like, why does
• 6:53
  Speaker 7: this person have this issue like scattered throughout their life,
• 6:58
  Speaker 7: throughout their commentary, like it's on their mind? Why do
• 7:00
  Speaker 7: they have such a strong opinion about women coming forward
• 7:06
  Speaker 7: with allegations, like I just feel like this isn't the
• 7:10
  Speaker 7: first time.
• 7:11
  Speaker 6: I know that you have been very reluctant to tell
• 7:15
  Speaker 6: this story, very reluctant. Why did you ultimately decide to
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: do it? Why why come forward?
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: By the way, this is Jake Tapper on CNN. Their
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: audio sucks, but this is the audio that we've got,
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: and he's interviewing Jenny raskont are A ci Cot, the
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: accuser who says that Graham Platner raped her, and Platner says,
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: of course, he categorically denies any accusations of non consensual behavior.
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: But she raises a point. I could tell you I
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: talk all sorts of smack, and you can't find smack
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: of me talking about you should buy Kevlar underwear if
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: you're you know, getting you know, wasted. I mean, I've
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: never said anything like that. I think most people I know,
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: like nine out of ten, probably even ten out of
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: ten people I know, have never said that. I think
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: if we did a man on the street interview and
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: ask people, have you talked this level of trash talk
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: on the internet, I think most people would say no.
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: I've never said such a thing, so I think your
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: point is definitely one worth exploring. Go ahead, play the tape.
• 8:21
  Speaker 7: A few reasons. One of the biggest ones is that
• 8:25
  Speaker 7: I think that there are a lot of men in
• 8:27
  Speaker 7: this world relying on the silence of women and to
• 8:31
  Speaker 7: be where they are, and I don't want to contribute
• 8:34
  Speaker 7: to that. I also want to just get my life back.
• 8:38
  Speaker 6: There are going to be people, maybe even his campaign,
• 8:41
  Speaker 6: certainly his supporters, who say this is politically motivated.
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: What would you say to that.
• 8:47
  Speaker 7: I couldn't disagree more. That was actually one of the
• 8:51
  Speaker 7: reasons that I didn't come out.
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: Well, there you go. It's again Jenny Irasicot and Jake
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: Tapper on CNN. Now this isn't the end, right, this
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: is the beginning. Now you got all sorts of people
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: jumping ship, right, a bunch of people that are not
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: interested in supporting Grand Platner anymore. Bernie Sanders put out
• 9:18
  Speaker 4: a statement saying no, thank you. Even Zoran Mamdani, who
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: did not endorse him, but says he's not going to either. Right.
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: He says it's time for this guy to go. And
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: Zoron has good political instincts, very good political instincts, because
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: anybody who's saying this guy's gotta stay is off their rocker.
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: Listen to this.
• 9:43
  Speaker 9: I wanted to ask, given that you have a sort
• 9:45
  Speaker 9: of a sendent role in the Democratic Party, could you
• 9:48
  Speaker 9: talk about the main Senate race. Do you think that
• 9:50
  Speaker 9: Graham Platner should drop out of the race and do
• 9:53
  Speaker 9: you have any intention of endorsing any candidates in competitive
• 9:56
  Speaker 9: races outside of New York, LSIED or anyone else.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: I believe that it's time for him to drop out
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: of the race. And when it comes to my own endorsements,
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: I've made eight endorsements at the state and federal level.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: They've all been right here in New York City. I'm
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: incredibly excited at the fact that they won their races.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: And that's where my focus is for now.
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: That's Mom, Donnie.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: You know, I think the focus of today should be
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: to respond to the gravity of what so many of
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: us have read, and I think that the only appropriate
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: response is for the campaign to come.
• 10:27
  Speaker 8: To an end.
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: I well, there you go. Listen, that's a pretty sensible
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: thing to say, right when a woman is accusing you
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: of rape publicly, like on CNN, right, not nineteen women saying,
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: oh my gosh, he raped me and no criminal charges,
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: no lawsuits. Right now, you could say the same for this,
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: So this is no it's different. She's on the record,
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: she's on television making these credible claims. Do you continue
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: in a thing like this. I don't know. I don't
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: think I would. Right, She's more believable than this woman
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: or the name Christine blasi Ford who in the middle
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: of the Kavanaugh confirmation said this guy raped me. Way
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: more credible. I guess we'll see if she ends up
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: on the stand, right, and I doubt she will. She
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: also seems way more credible than Egen Carroll because a
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: court actually found that there was no sexual contact between
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: Trump and Egen Carroll, but that because he called her ugly,
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: that constituted sexual harassment or sexual abuse. Because he said
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: he wouldn't date a girl that's that ugly. His mouth
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: got him in trouble. I think he's on the hook
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: for like eighty five million bucks in a judgment in
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: two separate cases. But my point is she's not saying,
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: you know, she even said on the record that she
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: didn't rape him in the dictionary sense of the word.
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: She felt like violated by his commentary, very different than
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: what this one is saying that this guy forcibly penetrated
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: her and removed the condom while he was doing it.
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: I mean, that's just yeah, it's it's just not a
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: good look for him. Let us continue. This is now
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: the other side of the coin. Right when Mom Donnie
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: is the same Democrat, you know that it's getting wild.
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: This is Representative Elaine Luria, and she is nuts. I
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: want you to listen to what she has to say.
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: She comes to the defense of Platnirse.
• 12:36
  Speaker 10: I'm singiely focused on this district, the message of what's
• 12:39
  Speaker 10: important to people here in Virginia's second congressional district. And
• 12:42
  Speaker 10: they're always going to try to find a boogeyman and
• 12:44
  Speaker 10: tie you know, the Democrat to whatever shiny new thing
• 12:50
  Speaker 10: is going to scare people. But the truth is is
• 12:52
  Speaker 10: to have a proven record in Congress.
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: Hold on a second. So they are going to tie
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: the Democrats to a boogeyman, or they're going to try
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: and question this man because a woman is saying that
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: she was raped, right, and yes, I'll admit that the
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: timing is curious, but I think many women say, you know,
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: I've been silent so long, it's time for me to
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: speak up. Can't imagine how difficult that is for someone.
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: All right, play a tape.
• 13:21
  Speaker 10: Oh the Democrat, to whatever shiny new thing is going
• 13:26
  Speaker 10: to scare people. But the truth is to have a
• 13:28
  Speaker 10: proven record in Congress, and I'm focused on listening, to supporting,
• 13:32
  Speaker 10: and then representing those people across this district.
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: So that's her focus. Right to obfuscate, to say no, no, no, no, listen, listen, listen,
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: grab platin or rapist. No no, no, no no. We're
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: not talking about that. We're not talking about my support
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: for him. We're not talking about any of those things.
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: We're talking about how good I am in my district
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: and how I stay focused on my people here in Virginia.
• 13:59
  Speaker 4: You are so full of it, lady. I don't think
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: anybody's believing it. Let me know if you're believing it,
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: because I'm definitely not. Because this is crazy, said in
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: her John Fetterman. He stepped up to the plate and
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: made some commentary around the fact that Bernie Sanders has
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: some splaining to do, right, saying that, hey, this guy,
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: it's because of him that Platner got elected. He's the
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: one that really dragged him across the finish line. Because
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: you know what, something Fetterman knows that the rest of
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: the Democrats haven't figured out or refused to admit publicly,
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: is that Bernie Sanders and his friends are destroying the
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: Democrat Party from what it once was. But at the
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: same time, they're the only people bringing in new lifeblood
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: because the union workers, the hard hats, those people they
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: signed up with Trump a long time ago because their
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: friends aoc ilhan Omar Rashida to leave the squad. You know,
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: all those people, Jamal Bowman, what was the bald lady's name,
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: I forget her name, and the one from Californa, from Texas,
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: Jas mccrackett, Croqueta, and the rest of these people have
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: hijacked the party. So the moderate Democrats, the patriot America
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: loving Democrats, many of them became Trumpers. So now you've
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: got Chuck Schumer, who, as Trump says, has become the
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: first Palestinian US senator, right, And you've got all these
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: different competing categories of people holding on to power because
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: they're the ones bringing in the money, they're the ones
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: bringing in the power. They must suck to be a Democrat.
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: These days, even if you win, it just sucks what
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: you have to do to get there. Anyway, that's what
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: I got on that. We'll touch base on that a
• 15:41
  Speaker 4: little bit because I think as the Democrats get hijacked,
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: we're going to talk about, you know, what's going on
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: with education in America. I think that's equally as important. Right,
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: We've got to stay focused on, like I said yesterday,
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: brainwashing children to love this country, if you want to
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: use those words, right, I call it tea the patriotism.
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: But nowadays everybody's gaslighting you one way or the other. Right,
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: if you call your your your spouse, your children, your girlfriend,
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: and you say, hey, look everything all right, Well maybe
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: I could pick you up, or if you want, I'll
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: do this, or you know, I could I could send
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: a cab for you, or I could stop trying to
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: control me. Right, that's the new modern psychology said, he's controlling.
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: He's a narcissist. You know, he is a narcissist. Anyway,
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: that's that's that. Keep my lock right here. I got
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: plenty more to discuss. Don't go anywhere.
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: This is America. This is America. He's got the best
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: head of hair and podcasting this is America with Rich.
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: Valdetis all right, famanil welcome back Rich Valdez Valdesz with
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: an s that Rich Valdesz on all of the social media,
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: happy to be here with you. And we're going to
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: continue with our Discurso, right, let me see where did
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: I leave off. I was still talking about Platner, and
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: I could talk about that again for quite a while, right,
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: because I think it's just fascinating how we have this
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: disconnect right in particular on the left where it's like, look, look,
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: we don't care, right, I mean, I was here for that.
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: It was at least two weeks of grand Platner, Grand Platner,
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: Grand Platner, Grand Platner. Everybody, No, if you didn't know
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: who grand Platner was, all of a sudden you knew,
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: and you knew everything that he was guilty of or
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: at least accused of. And guess what, nobody cared. Nobody cared.
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: Now we have serious accusations, and of course they deserve
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: serious attention, no matter which side of the aisle you're on. Right,
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: we have to take a look at this stuff. We
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: also have to give an edocent man is due right
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: to say, hey, look, what does he have to say
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: about this the problems? He said so much about these things,
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: it's not helping, and he's saying so little. Then he
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: says I didn't do it. Then he says, I'm not
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: dropping out. Meanwhile he's like, I'm not dropping out. I'm not.
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: He doesn't seem very sure of himself. So this sudden
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: flip from certain people is really something else. We're gonna
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: keep watch and see how this thing plays out in Maine,
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: but overall, this is the bigger picture of what's going
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: on and the body politic I think is that we're
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: losing touch, right, We're losing touch. So we'll let you
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: know how it goes. Now. I want to get into
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: this other stuff here with the Democrats in particular, before
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: we get into Iran. I like to say it like that,
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: almost like with a British accent and Iran. It just
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: sounds a little more sophisticated when you say this way
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: of girls. And now we're going to discuss Iran. And
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: this is my kind of like half blind, very uncertain,
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: very what is the word I'm looking for? Eccentric? Eccentric
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: British accent rights Y's of course yes, okay, let us continue.
• 19:17
  Speaker 4: I'm going to hold on to this impression for as
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: long as I can because why well, because I feel
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: like it. Thank you, Thank you very much, Yes, of course.
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: So exactly how will we remedy this Democrat problem? Pray
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: tell well. I think someone that explains it very eloquently
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: is former Speaker McCarthy. You see, former Speaker McCarthy explains
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: on the Fox News channel that yes, indeed we have
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: a problem, and the problem stems from the weak leadership
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: week leadership, I tell you of the Democrats, right HACKEM. Jeffreys,
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: Chuck Schumer in the Senate, they lack the spine to
• 19:57
  Speaker 4: tell the aocs and the grand Platinus of the world
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: world what is going on. And he explains it so
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: well in this clip. Go right ahead, my good man,
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: go ahead and school us on missus McCarthy, Formost speaker,
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: go right head.
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: I think in some ways the Tea Party made the
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: Republican stronger.
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: Republican Party stronger.
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: Trump certainly did, but this is like, I don't even
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: know what this is. Well, two things are happening here
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: why the socialists are continuing to win in bigger places.
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: One is they have the enthusiasm. Second, Democrats have very
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: weak leaders. Schumer should have stepped up and never allowed
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: this person to be the nominee. And how much did
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: he know ahead of time? Hakeem Jeffries got his own
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: incumbents beat in his backyard by Mandani when he wouldn't
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: even they couldn't decide where they'd even endorse him when
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: they're from New York. I mean that's the place. He
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: weak Democrat leadership, enthusiasm with socialism, and they're beginning to
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: win and take.
• 20:55
  Speaker 8: Over the entire party.
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: What does this say about the big money donors in
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: the Democrat Party?
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: They're allowing this to happen.
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: If they want a party long term and ability to win,
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: they're going to have to step up and say no.
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: But I have watched how many big donors gave him
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: money and knew there was questions about him, but sat
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: there and said, oh, it's okay, we just want to win,
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: We just want to beat the Republican Susan Collins. Do
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: you think think in some.
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: Way Listen, it's not that here's the thing, right, He's
• 21:26
  Speaker 4: one hundred percent right, it's not What about the donors?
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: They didn't do this unknowingly, unwittingly, they did this on purpose.
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: The donors. Who's a bigger donor than Neville Singham, a
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: straight up communist who lives in China right or has
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: business in China, has some business here, does what he does.
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: This guy is, you know, within his rights, obviously to
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: destroy this country, and he's doing it, and he's doing
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: a pretty damn good job of it. George Soros, he
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: seems to be following in George Soros's footsteps. Then, of
• 21:55
  Speaker 4: course we vilify these guys, not because they're doing something
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: wrong per se, but because, at least me I disagree
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: with what they're doing right. And if there's ever a
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: time where I'm envious and I'm not, I really don't
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: care if you're rich. I'm glad you're rich. I don't
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: want your money. Maybe I want my own money, but
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: I don't want your money. But in a case like this,
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: it's probably the only time that I'm envious that I'm like, man,
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: I wish I was a billionaire, because I would love
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: to fight against these guys in those trenches when they're
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: buying radio stations and doing this and doing that, and
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: sending millions and hundreds of millions of dollars to mobilize
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: people because guess what, you know, how many good conservatives
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: might use a sick day or use a vacation. If
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: I said, hey, we can pay you to go protest,
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: I think we'd see a very very big difference in
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: how this is working out. Right, if there was money here,
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: the amount of money you could say, hey, look, I'm
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: making three new scholarships at three different schools for conservatives
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: to get into the media, to take on the status quo,
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: to take on the establishment. You need money to do
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: those things. All right, We all do our part, I hope.
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: But these guys have a lot of money and they're
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: doing it. Trump had a lot of money, he's doing it,
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: put himself out there. Thank God for people like that,
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: but we need more of them. We also need to
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: make sure that our children are educated well. And if
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: you're a parent, I say get your kids out of
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: public education right now, right now. Listen, my kids did
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: go to public education, and to my chagrin, to be frank,
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: I remember looking at a Christian school when I lived
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: in Nutley, New Jersey. I think it was called Abundant
• 23:42
  Speaker 4: Life Worship Center or Abundant Life Christian Academy might have been.
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: The school associated with it had a good reputation. I
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: wanted to send my kids there. They give you a
• 23:51
  Speaker 4: discount for siblings, but at the time I remember it
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: being something like forty five hundred dollars for one kid,
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: and if two kids went, I it was something like
• 24:00
  Speaker 4: sixty five hundred and seven grand. And you know, before
• 24:05
  Speaker 4: too long. And this was again twenty years back, right,
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: I'm sure that's a lot more today. But my point
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: is it was undoable because the day that we considered
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: it literally was the day that my taxes went from
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: forty five hundred dollars to eight grand. How's that for
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: a tax increase? God blessed New Jersey? Right, So I
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: have to tell you they didn't go, and I made
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: sure that they were in church as often as they
• 24:34
  Speaker 4: could be, and I, you know, gave them my own
• 24:38
  Speaker 4: civic education and would drive them to school and talk
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: about the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence and William Wilberforce.
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: I remember my daughter once being bored to tears during
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: that movie and going, Daddy, do we have to keep
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: watching Willie Wilberforce. I want to see my little pony.
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: And I was like, yeah, this is really good for you.
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: As important as how we ended slavery. You know, it
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: started in England and it made its way over here.
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: It's called abolition, and I was so excited about it,
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: and she was just like, okay, I'd love you. You know,
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: they were good sports about it. But my point was
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: that's that's what you got to do. And these kids were,
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: you know, two and six at the time. So that's
• 25:17
  Speaker 4: how life is. And we have to get back to
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: that education, right. We have to educate our own kids.
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: We have to make sure that our schools are not
• 25:26
  Speaker 4: indoctrinating our kids because we pay for that. Why on
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: earth would I pay for somebody to teach my kid
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: to hate America. And that's exactly what Secretary Linda McMahon
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: from the US Department of Education it was talking about.
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: She did a TV interview where she's saying that we're
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: failing our kids on patriotism and she says, it's incredibly disturbing.
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: Listen to this.
• 25:47
  Speaker 11: You know, it's really disturbing to me when I traveled
• 25:49
  Speaker 11: to some schools around the country and they don't even
• 25:52
  Speaker 11: say the Pledge of Allegiance anymore. And I was told
• 25:55
  Speaker 11: by one principle, their school had the opportunity in their
• 25:58
  Speaker 11: city to opt out, and they opted out. And they
• 26:01
  Speaker 11: were very pleased that in the program that I was
• 26:03
  Speaker 11: bringing that morning to the school, that the words to
• 26:07
  Speaker 11: the Pledge of Allegiance were going to be on screens
• 26:09
  Speaker 11: in front because they didn't think the students would know
• 26:12
  Speaker 11: the words. I found that incredibly disturbing, and I know
• 26:15
  Speaker 11: that's going on in more too many schools, you know,
• 26:18
  Speaker 11: throughout the country. We have to teach patriotism, and that
• 26:21
  Speaker 11: I saw the other day said that only about seventy
• 26:24
  Speaker 11: five to eighty percent of eighth graders or high schoolers,
• 26:29
  Speaker 11: you know, really understood about our country or had love
• 26:32
  Speaker 11: of our country. And when forty one percent of our
• 26:36
  Speaker 11: population says that they're that they love our country, it's
• 26:40
  Speaker 11: only forty one percent, we're doing something wrong. And I
• 26:42
  Speaker 11: think we clearly have failed our children in education, especially
• 26:46
  Speaker 11: when only about thirty percent of eighth graders and fourth
• 26:50
  Speaker 11: graders can read proficiently. And so we really have an
• 26:53
  Speaker 11: obligation to make sure we get things back on the
• 26:55
  Speaker 11: right track, that we teach patriotism, that we save the
• 26:59
  Speaker 11: Pledge of Allegiance, and our classrooms, and we teach love
• 27:02
  Speaker 11: a flag because that is the symbolic representation of our country.
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: I couldn't agree with her anymore. And I mentioned this yesterday.
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: When I was a little kid, I was very a
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: little chubby kid, wearing my white shirt, my red thyme
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: navy blue pants. I was dressed like the American flag.
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: We saluted the flag. We sang songs like You're a
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: grand old flag, You're a high fly in flag. I mean,
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: it was. It was a thing, these Friday afternoon assemblies
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: at PS one ninety seven in Brooklyn. That's how it was.
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: You stood up back then. Teachers would the men. They
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: were all men, by the way. Every teacher I had
• 27:35
  Speaker 4: was a man. Very few women teachers in my formative years.
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: But they would if I acted up, and I acted
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: up all the time. Mister Benowitz, mister Shaw, mister Sheptinski,
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: who else? There were so many. These guys were all
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: the disciplinarians that worked in the hallways. John A. Granziani
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: was our principal, and he never did that. He was
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: too cool. He was like a politician. But the others
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: that I mentioned, mister Benowitz, these guys, every last one
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: of them. If you acted up, they would grab you
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: by your bicep and give you a shake and be
• 28:11
  Speaker 4: that's enough. And that was totally acceptable, totally acceptable, you know,
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: which is why now I have all these unpopular opinions,
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: like when I see these young people mouthing off to
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: crazy old people, and my first take is, listen if
• 28:26
  Speaker 4: a crazy old person came to me. And this is
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: like a whole separate story. So maybe I don't want
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: to segue too quickly here. Let me hold off on
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: that and just put a pin in this. When Linda
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: McMahon says forty one percent of people polled love this country,
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: and that's from the recent CNN stuff that we talked
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: about yesterday, that means fifty nine percent of Americans do
• 28:46
  Speaker 4: not love this country right now, if there was any
• 28:51
  Speaker 4: doubt or wonder in your mind about why the socialists
• 28:57
  Speaker 4: are winning, that's the answer. When I was having a
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: conversation recently with some liberal friends from New England that
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: didn't like the idea that Republicans always say that that
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: progressive liberal left whatever, we hate America, and I they
• 29:17
  Speaker 4: were like, I just don't agree. I don't hate America.
• 29:19
  Speaker 4: One of them. There's two guys. One of them was like, yeah,
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: I served, and I was like, listen and thanks for
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: your service. Brother. I'm not saying that you hate America.
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: I'm saying that you is now somebody in your fifties
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: going into your sixties is no longer representative of what's
• 29:35
  Speaker 4: going on in your party. Right. There are young people
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: that truly hate the country. They believe that we're built
• 29:42
  Speaker 4: on stolen land. They believe that everything we do is wrong, bad,
• 29:48
  Speaker 4: and sacrilege. So what are we going to do? And
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: they were like, yeah, I'm just not buying it. And
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: I said, well, ask them. And it's so good that
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: this came out, because I said, I bet you if
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: you were to ask them do you love this country?
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: They would flat out tell you no. And those guys
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: you had to see how their mouths were just open,
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: dumbfound and they were like, man, you're right. And of
• 30:12
  Speaker 4: course I dropped the mic and got out of there, quick, quick, fast,
• 30:15
  Speaker 4: and in a hurry. It's my pastor. Joe used to say,
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: God rest his soul. So that's that. Now back to
• 30:22
  Speaker 4: my unpopular opinion. Unpopular opinion here is that when I
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: was a kid, you needed to respect your elders. Didn't
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: matter if it was some cooky old lady or a
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: grumpy old man, that was never an excuse. Right, my
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: mother saw me mouthing off to somebody, my father, I mean,
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: a teacher, anybody. Nobody would ever say, well, that's because
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: old people are boomers, and boomers need to check themselves.
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: And but that's the commentary today, right. Let me see
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: if I could find something that I posted on on
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: Twitter and the outrageous response that we got to it outrageous.
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: I'm not offended. I actually laughed at most of it
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: was very funny, but it really was outrageous. And I thought, man,
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: and I knew it was going to be outrageous because
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: I already know the trend. I know how people are.
• 31:13
  Speaker 4: Let me, you know, I have a sense of things.
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: I should say, let me go here to let's see
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: if it'll show me replies excuse me here it is. So,
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: there was a case of a seventy year old man
• 31:26
  Speaker 4: who gets into a you know, a verbal argument with
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: a young man and a few other young men. There's
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: several young guys there. They're I don't know if they're
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: going fishing and they're going in a boat, they're going swimming,
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: they're out of lake. It's daytime. There's some signs posted
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: in this video. And I guess I could play this
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: audience just so long and kind of drawn out. It
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: doesn't really do it justice. But young, young, all right,
• 31:51
  Speaker 4: let's give it a listen. This is kind of a
• 31:58
  Speaker 4: recap that they're playing right here on.
• 32:02
  Speaker 12: Didn't you don't like it? Too bad? Time to go,
• 32:07
  Speaker 12: Time to go?
• 32:09
  Speaker 4: All right, So that that's the young guy, right. His
• 32:12
  Speaker 4: name is somewhere in here, but this happens in Massachusetts
• 32:16
  Speaker 4: at of lake. This older guy, I believe his name
• 32:18
  Speaker 4: is Stephen Dana. He comes over and he tells him
• 32:21
  Speaker 4: something like, hey, listen to the you know they it
• 32:24
  Speaker 4: says five pm or whatever whatever. He says, Honestly, these
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: are facts that are relevant, but they're not relevant to
• 32:30
  Speaker 4: my particular discussion right now. And he tells them they
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: can't do that. And the young man replies, well, well
• 32:35
  Speaker 4: too bad, too bad. Now get out of here, scramp
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: go away, right, That was his response to this man. Now,
• 32:42
  Speaker 4: this man gets more and more agitated throughout the conversation.
• 32:46

  Speaker 12: I'm following. No, you're not. You're not following.

• 33:34
  Speaker 12: over to downy go over there, dude, let it get it,
• 33:36
  Speaker 12: get it down there?
• 33:38
  Speaker 13: What number knocked down you live on? Well, I'll find
• 33:41
  Speaker 13: out by your registration your car. Oh I'm sure, yeah,
• 33:44
  Speaker 13: I will.
• 33:44
  Speaker 12: No, you won't, actually I will.
• 33:47
  Speaker 4: I promise you you will.
• 33:48
  Speaker 12: I promise. Out of here, bro, you're not going to
• 33:50
  Speaker 12: do like really.
• 33:51
  Speaker 4: What he says, Just get out of here. You're not
• 33:54
  Speaker 4: going to do anything. The guy says, Look, I'll just
• 33:56
  Speaker 4: call the police.
• 33:57
  Speaker 12: Police again. That's all, okay? Are they gonna shoot me.
• 34:00
  Speaker 4: The kid says, what are they going to do? Shoot me?
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: Play attention? Shoot me? He goes, are you gonna shoot me?
• 34:08
  Speaker 4: The guy points him stuff like me, I'm not gonna
• 34:10
  Speaker 4: shoot you. But now he's pissed. So he walks over
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: to this kid, who's clearly being a brat shoot me,
• 34:18
  Speaker 4: and now he's threatening him, right or taunting him? Is
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: the word I'm looking for? He says, come on, shoot me,
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: shoot me. Now, this guy's seventy years old, big guy.
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: This kid's a shrimp, right right. So now this guy
• 34:31
  Speaker 4: gets closer. And I'm not saying that this guy is
• 34:35
  Speaker 4: not your typical fifty five plus malcontent with a very
• 34:41
  Speaker 4: large neck and an even bigger waistline that doesn't even exist, right,
• 34:45
  Speaker 4: because those guys call my show sometimes and they get mad.
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: They get very mad at me because they're upset with life.
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: And I get that, right, But this kid, this kid
• 34:55
  Speaker 4: is I think the word we use is bend hill.
• 35:00
  Speaker 12: Come on, come come on, big boy.
• 35:03
  Speaker 4: So now he's like, yeah, come on, big boy.
• 35:05
  Speaker 12: Com big boy. What you can do, big boy?
• 35:07
  Speaker 4: Come on, big boy, what are you gonna do? Shoot me?
• 35:10
  Speaker 7: Do?
• 35:10
  Speaker 4: What am I gonna do?
• 35:10
  Speaker 12: I'm on, big boy, you're the one coming up to me.
• 35:12
  Speaker 13: Come on, big boy, let's do it.
• 35:13
  Speaker 4: Come on?
• 35:14
  Speaker 12: Was it so?
• 35:15
  Speaker 4: Now this old man is in his face, tunting him, saying,
• 35:17
  Speaker 4: what are you gonna do? Come on, let's go, and
• 35:19
  Speaker 4: and the kids like, you're the one coming up to.
• 35:20
  Speaker 12: Me, big mouthyaws about him your mouth.
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: And boom, you heard that. That was the smack like
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: the Will Smith smack across the face of Chris Rock.
• 35:32
  Speaker 4: This old man teaches this kid a lesson that his
• 35:35
  Speaker 4: dad definitely did not teach him. And yeah, I have
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: a bias here. I don't like kids. I really don't.
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: I have my own two, and I love them and
• 35:46
  Speaker 4: adore them, but I'm not typically I like little kids.
• 35:48
  Speaker 4: You know, little kids are cute and they're like, hey,
• 35:51
  Speaker 4: I'll pinch your cheeks and you know, send them on
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: our way. But this nineteen eighteen twenty whatever, this kid
• 35:58
  Speaker 4: is no thanks, right, especially if they're rude. Now, if
• 36:02
  Speaker 4: they're respectful, and you know, the old man comes in,
• 36:04
  Speaker 4: he's like, listen, sorry, sir, I didn't mean to apologize that.
• 36:07
  Speaker 4: Maybe it's a misunderstanding. I understand that I could stay
• 36:11
  Speaker 4: here till till the sun goes down or all right, sir,
• 36:14
  Speaker 4: thank you so much. We'll be getting out of here
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: soon and move over. Whatever the case is. I believe
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: that that's how I would have handled it, because I
• 36:21
  Speaker 4: think you got to respect your elders, right. I don't
• 36:23
  Speaker 4: want this guy turning around, this seventy year old guy
• 36:26
  Speaker 4: and then going to my dad or bumping into him
• 36:28
  Speaker 4: at the store and then being like, oh, yeah, I
• 36:30
  Speaker 4: saw your kid. The other man. Boy was he running
• 36:31
  Speaker 4: his mouth? What a disrespectful sob right, I mean that
• 36:34
  Speaker 4: would be the end of the world. So I would
• 36:37
  Speaker 4: have handled it completely different. But this kid is like, no, no, no,
• 36:39
  Speaker 4: you know, I'm team rude, and he mouths off to
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: this guy who clearly came to give him something and
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: he gave it to him. Thoma played the tack. Now oh,
• 36:53
  Speaker 4: she pushes him into the lake. He's on top of
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: him in the mountain position, sloshing around. This kid is
• 37:00
  Speaker 4: flailing and this dude is clearly he's punching him, choking him.
• 37:04
  Speaker 4: I don't know what he's doing.
• 37:05
  Speaker 12: Stop, stops.
• 37:06
  Speaker 4: That goes on for about eight seconds. That kid's underwater.
• 37:11
  Speaker 4: Now he's screaming, I got a broken leg, and they're
• 37:15
  Speaker 4: like his friend's calm, and they're like, after about eight
• 37:19
  Speaker 4: or ten seconds or whatever it was, his friends were
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: just watching him. Just get his his ass handed to.
• 37:24
  Speaker 9: Him with you, I'm a broken your friend, get him away.
• 37:29
  Speaker 4: And now he's screaming. Now the old man is still
• 37:31
  Speaker 4: on his he's on all fours because they they laid
• 37:37
  Speaker 4: a few shots into him, and the kids over him,
• 37:40
  Speaker 4: towering over him, even though he's short.
• 37:42
  Speaker 12: I was gonna get out of here, and he's.
• 37:44
  Speaker 4: Still and he's still yelling at the old man.
• 37:50
  Speaker 12: Hey, he injured a cripple person, you know.
• 37:52
  Speaker 4: Now he calls himself a cripple. I'm gonna sue him.
• 37:56
  Speaker 4: What a woos? I gotta say, this kills a woos.
• 37:58
  Speaker 4: A little respect goes along way.
• 38:01
  Speaker 12: No, no apology. I am crippled.
• 38:05
  Speaker 8: Man.
• 38:06
  Speaker 4: This kid's standing on his two legs, screaming and he's
• 38:08
  Speaker 4: a cripple. No, sir, what you are is using big
• 38:12
  Speaker 4: boy words, acting like a man, and you can't back
• 38:14
  Speaker 4: it up. You're writing checks with your mouth that you're
• 38:18
  Speaker 4: the rest of your body can't cash. He's yeah, it's
• 38:28
  Speaker 4: another all upset. Anyway, fast forward.
• 38:31
  Speaker 12: I hope his eye never gets yealed.
• 38:34
  Speaker 4: So I hope his eye never gets what a whis.
• 38:41
  Speaker 4: So apparently this kid was just in a motorcycle accident.
• 38:43
  Speaker 4: So now you tell me if you've got a bad
• 38:46
  Speaker 4: leg because you were in a motorcycle accident, do you
• 38:48
  Speaker 4: go starting stuff with some guy that's twice your size
• 38:52
  Speaker 4: and probably twice or three times your age? Come on, right,
• 38:57
  Speaker 4: and this is why. Look, I understand you're not allowed
• 38:59
  Speaker 4: to go around small in other people's kids. And the
• 39:01
  Speaker 4: kid's not a miner, he's an adult. I get that,
• 39:04
  Speaker 4: and I'm not discarding that. Right, the old man was wrong,
• 39:07
  Speaker 4: but I can't say that I wouldn't be equally as wrong,
• 39:13
  Speaker 4: is all I'm saying. Right, I mean, at seventy years old,
• 39:18
  Speaker 4: you gotta pick which hill you're gonna die on? And
• 39:21
  Speaker 4: are you gonna be the one that says, ah, it's
• 39:23
  Speaker 4: not worth it's some dumb schmuck. I'm just gonna mind
• 39:25
  Speaker 4: my own business and walk away, or do you go
• 39:27
  Speaker 4: seventy years I've done a lot in these seventy years.
• 39:30
  Speaker 4: Today I'm smacking me a young buck. I'm taking him down.
• 39:34
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna teach them what a og does. Maybe maybe
• 39:36
  Speaker 4: that was his thought process, not saying it would be mine.
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: Not saying that at all, but possibility. It's definitely a possibility.
• 39:43
  Speaker 4: So these guys press charges and the old man gets
• 39:48
  Speaker 4: arrested and charged with attempted murder for strangulation of a
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: crippled person. That's an actual charge in this town. And man,
• 39:59
  Speaker 4: you've got you've got to see the comments that I got. Man,
• 40:03
  Speaker 4: a lot of hate. I knew it. I knew I
• 40:05
  Speaker 4: was going to get a lot of a lot of
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: hate on this, But boy I did I did. Oh Now,
• 40:11
  Speaker 4: it's not showing them to me. Dang well. They were
• 40:14
  Speaker 4: all there, fifty three comments, and out of the fifty three,
• 40:18
  Speaker 4: two of them our best comment I've seen. Yeah, why
• 40:23
  Speaker 4: is this? Because I titled my my comment unpopular opinion,
• 40:28
  Speaker 4: Respect your elders second, unpopular opinion. Don't talk crap. Come on,
• 40:33
  Speaker 4: big boy, what are you going to do if you're
• 40:35
  Speaker 4: not prepared for the consequences. The old man was definitely
• 40:38
  Speaker 4: prepared to go to jail before he let this kid
• 40:41
  Speaker 4: run his mouth anymore. Of course, they both could have
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: handled this better, especially if you're crippled. And a lot
• 40:47
  Speaker 4: of people didn't like that. Two people liked it. Twenty
• 40:51
  Speaker 4: thousand people saw it, sixty seven people liked it, fifty
• 40:55
  Speaker 4: three people commented, and I tell my Twitter if you
• 40:58
  Speaker 4: want to take a look at it, and I'll try
• 41:01
  Speaker 4: and get this video out to you guys as well.
• 41:03
  Speaker 4: But fascinating to me how respecting your elders was viewed
• 41:09
  Speaker 4: as inaccurate. Everybody was team little kid. You don't get
• 41:12
  Speaker 4: to beat up the little kid. You don't get to
• 41:14
  Speaker 4: attempted murder somebody. I got news for all of them
• 41:17
  Speaker 4: when you're seventy years old. And they say has an
• 41:19
  Speaker 4: extensive criminal pass because he'd gotten into trouble in nineteen ninety.
• 41:25
  Speaker 4: So of course the media runs with that, saying this
• 41:27
  Speaker 4: man has a criminal record dating back to nineteen ninety,
• 41:30
  Speaker 4: making it sound like he's a career criminal. He's a
• 41:33
  Speaker 4: grumpy old man that starts trouble around the way, he's
• 41:37
  Speaker 4: got a chip on his shoulder. I got it. Maybe
• 41:40
  Speaker 4: he's a bully even and he's going to pay the
• 41:43
  Speaker 4: price for sure, But I don't think he's going to
• 41:45
  Speaker 4: get convicted of attempted murder of a cripple. I think
• 41:51
  Speaker 4: what's going to happen to him is he's going to
• 41:54
  Speaker 4: enter a plea deal of no contest and probably do
• 41:56
  Speaker 4: no time, or maybe a plea deal of guilty to
• 42:01
  Speaker 4: a very minimal aggravated assault or simple assault charge. And
• 42:06
  Speaker 4: that's it. That's the end of the day. And at
• 42:09
  Speaker 4: seventy years old, what do you think he's going to
• 42:11
  Speaker 4: lose his job over this? That's why I say, you
• 42:13
  Speaker 4: gotta watch what you're doing, some seventy year old og.
• 42:16
  Speaker 4: You never know if this guy was in the military,
• 42:18
  Speaker 4: you don't know, if you don't know what he did
• 42:19
  Speaker 4: for a living. But I'll tell you what, he doesn't
• 42:22
  Speaker 4: have much to lose at seventy and the guy was
• 42:24
  Speaker 4: still in good shape. So watch your mouth, right, watch
• 42:28
  Speaker 4: your mouth do the math. Anyway, that's my thought on
• 42:31
  Speaker 4: that one. I'll put this up on my Instagram so
• 42:34
  Speaker 4: you can see a video of this, of this segment
• 42:36
  Speaker 4: as well. Anyway, I mean, goes keep it locked right
• 42:38
  Speaker 4: here at rich Faldesk. We're coming right back. Ed Trompito
• 42:41
  Speaker 4: is in where is he at Ankara? Turkey? And of
• 42:47
  Speaker 4: course we've got the United States striking back on Iran
• 42:51
  Speaker 4: as well. We're going to get into that in the
• 42:53
  Speaker 4: remaining time that we have. I told you a lot
• 42:55
  Speaker 4: to discuss in this show. Don't go anywhere this is America.
• 43:13

• 43:52
  Speaker 4: the socials at rich Valdesk with an s Now. President
• 43:56
  Speaker 4: Trump is in Turkey on Kara Turkey for the NATO summit.
• 43:59
  Speaker 4: He didn't want to go, but he did show up,
• 44:01
  Speaker 4: and he says out of his relationship with ertone, right one,
• 44:06
  Speaker 4: otherwise known as Erdigon, it's that soft Middle Eastern g there. Anyway,
• 44:11
  Speaker 4: he's there, he's doing his deals, and overnight he's got
• 44:15
  Speaker 4: to send a couple of strikes to eighty different military targets.
• 44:20
  Speaker 4: In Iran because they decided to hit a ship in
• 44:24
  Speaker 4: the Strait of Hormuz.
• 44:26
  Speaker 15: Again, another reported tanker strike in the Strait of Hormuz.
• 44:30
  Speaker 15: We think two have been struck. It might be more,
• 44:33
  Speaker 15: but we'll hang on. We'll hang on to two for
• 44:36
  Speaker 15: the moment. A tanker struck by an unknown projectile trying
• 44:39
  Speaker 15: to transit the Straight of Horn moves. Apparently another one
• 44:42
  Speaker 15: made a U turn and turned around. No casualties reported.
• 44:46
  Speaker 15: Vessels are being advised or transit with caution. Meanwhile, from
• 44:49
  Speaker 15: Fox Business, they've obtained audio of an Iranian threatening the
• 44:54
  Speaker 15: ships in the strait.
• 44:55
  Speaker 4: And here is how that sounded in English.
• 45:00
  Speaker 16: For me, this last warning, this is love for me.
• 45:05
  Speaker 16: If you're running down here, so your logging down here,
• 45:09
  Speaker 16: your orders, old coat immediately, alter coat support immediately. I
• 45:15
  Speaker 16: used the South of Flader not to exist, give me
• 45:18
  Speaker 16: this away. You will be targeted. Did it about ab
• 45:22
  Speaker 16: out so?
• 45:23
  Speaker 4: And Trumpedo says, look, man, we can't play games some more.
• 45:26
  Speaker 4: We gotta we gotta hit these guys hard. We gotta
• 45:28
  Speaker 4: let them know what's going on because they've likely screwed
• 45:31
  Speaker 4: up the ceasefire. Listen to this.
• 45:35
  Speaker 14: They are behaving very badly. As they have for forty
• 45:38
  Speaker 14: seven years. And you know, we hit them hard last night.
• 45:42
  Speaker 14: After they lunch, they launched a couple of You don't
• 45:44
  Speaker 14: have to know about this, you got stuff on your mind,
• 45:47
  Speaker 14: but they launched a couple of drones and one rocket,
• 45:52
  Speaker 14: one missile and at chips because they were in the straight,
• 45:57
  Speaker 14: which they have every right to be. And so we
• 46:00
  Speaker 14: hit him very hard last night, very very probably hit
• 46:03
  Speaker 14: 'em hard again tonight. I'll give them a little warning
• 46:04
  Speaker 14: we're gonna hit him hard tonight. But we'll see how
• 46:08
  Speaker 14: it all works out. No, I'm not happy with them.
• 46:10
  Speaker 8: You know.
• 46:10
  Speaker 14: It's like, for instance, we'll have a meeting and we'll
• 46:13
  Speaker 14: talk about the denuclearization of Iran, because that's what the
• 46:17
  Speaker 14: war is. It's not a war, is really the denuclearization
• 46:20
  Speaker 14: of Iran, and we'll have a meeting and we'll talk
• 46:23
  Speaker 14: about just that. That's cause my whole thing is not
• 46:26
  Speaker 14: about regime change. It's not about it. Although I think
• 46:29
  Speaker 14: it's resume change. When you knock out the first group,
• 46:32
  Speaker 14: the second group and now you're at the I think
• 46:34
  Speaker 14: that's maybe the ultimate regime change.
• 46:36
  Speaker 8: But but that's not what it's about.
• 46:39
  Speaker 14: It's about we don't want them to have nuclear weapons,
• 46:43
  Speaker 14: and it's uh de nukin or de nuclearization. And I
• 46:48
  Speaker 14: think we've made a lot of progress. And they'll get
• 46:50
  Speaker 14: out of the room. We'll talk about like we hear,
• 46:53
  Speaker 14: they'll agree on everything, and then they'll go ah, have
• 46:55
  Speaker 14: a news conference and say, we never even talked about it.
• 46:59
  Speaker 8: The cuckoo. There's something wrong with these people.
• 47:02
  Speaker 14: And for forty seven years they've been the bully of
• 47:06
  Speaker 14: the Middle East, and they're not the bully anymore.
• 47:09
  Speaker 8: They're not the bully.
• 47:11
  Speaker 4: Trump making it clear that Iran is not the bully anymore.
• 47:14
  Speaker 4: That's him again at the NATO summit in on Karra, Turkey.
• 47:17
  Speaker 4: He heads to Doha on Wednesday. And the interesting part
• 47:23
  Speaker 4: about this is he's dropping it like it's hot while
• 47:26
  Speaker 4: he's out there doing what he's got to do. Meanwhile,
• 47:29
  Speaker 4: you've got the radical left just beside themselves, absolutely beside themselves.
• 47:36
  Speaker 4: With respect to the funeral of the Ayatollah Khamene, i'll
• 47:43
  Speaker 4: talk about that in a couple of minutes, you know,
• 47:45
  Speaker 4: we'll do a short last segment, but I want to
• 47:50
  Speaker 4: play another clip for you because I think it's just
• 47:52
  Speaker 4: fascinating to see that Iran is like yes, he's fire.
• 47:55
  Speaker 4: We're gonna meet in Doha. We're talking about peace, Yet
• 47:58
  Speaker 4: they want to hit these ships. I mean, it's just
• 48:00
  Speaker 4: wild to me now. Of course, President Trump was very
• 48:03
  Speaker 4: upset right because he was slided when so many of
• 48:08
  Speaker 4: the NATO allies just decided to not help out with
• 48:12
  Speaker 4: the mining ships in the Strait of Horror movies, with
• 48:15
  Speaker 4: the Iran effort. So he doesn't forget stuff like that,
• 48:18
  Speaker 4: and he doesn't take it lightly. Listen to El Trampito
• 48:22
  Speaker 4: making those comments in Turkey in front of all of them,
• 48:28
  Speaker 4: right to their.
• 48:28
  Speaker 8: Faces, satisfied with the progress that NATO allies has, Well,
• 48:31
  Speaker 8: we're going to see.
• 48:31
  Speaker 14: I was very disappointed with NATO, and frankly, if it
• 48:35
  Speaker 14: weren't held in Turkey, where my friend happens to be
• 48:39
  Speaker 14: a very strong leader, a very strong person, it's possible
• 48:45
  Speaker 14: that I wouldn't have attended. I felt I had to
• 48:48
  Speaker 14: attend because of the fact that you know, I know,
• 48:50
  Speaker 14: he's gone all out. It was a big thing to
• 48:53
  Speaker 14: have NATO come to Turkey or anyplace else.
• 48:55
  Speaker 8: It's a big thing.
• 48:57
  Speaker 14: But we weren't treated well because we did something in Iran.
• 49:01
  Speaker 8: We don't need anybody's help. I didn't even want the help.
• 49:05
  Speaker 14: But before I asked, they said they wouldn't be there.
• 49:08
  Speaker 14: And we've invested trillions of dollars and they know why,
• 49:14
  Speaker 14: to protect European countries and others, Canada, etc. But to
• 49:20
  Speaker 14: protect people countries from generally speaking, it used to be
• 49:24
  Speaker 14: the Soviet Union, now it's Russia. And I say, that's fine,
• 49:30
  Speaker 14: but you would think that they'd be very willing to
• 49:34
  Speaker 14: do something to help us, and they really weren't. In
• 49:37
  Speaker 14: the case of the United Kingdom, the Prime Minister, I
• 49:41
  Speaker 14: guess he's no longer there, maybe because of this. It
• 49:44
  Speaker 14: was a very unpopular thing he did. He said, no,
• 49:47
  Speaker 14: we'll help after the war is over. I said, I
• 49:50
  Speaker 14: don't need that kind of help. We didn't need any
• 49:53
  Speaker 14: help at all. And in a way, I was testing people.
• 49:55
  Speaker 14: I was testing to see whether or not they'd be there,
• 49:57
  Speaker 14: because I've long said that we help them, but I'm
• 50:00
  Speaker 14: not sure that they'd be there for us. And Italy
• 50:02
  Speaker 14: turned us down, and Germany turned us down, and France
• 50:06
  Speaker 14: turned us down. And it's okay, but you know, why
• 50:11
  Speaker 14: are we spending hundreds of billions of dollars and they're
• 50:15
  Speaker 14: not there for us.
• 50:16
  Speaker 8: We've always been there for them.
• 50:19
  Speaker 4: Each and every one of those countries is waiting for
• 50:21
  Speaker 4: Trump to leave. They just can't wait to run out
• 50:25
  Speaker 4: the clock. Right. They're like, look, I'll get along with
• 50:27
  Speaker 4: him if I can, but as long as he's there,
• 50:29
  Speaker 4: he's a wild card. And the reality is, I don't
• 50:32
  Speaker 4: think anybody else has the balls. Maybe Rubio, right, I
• 50:36
  Speaker 4: haven't heard him discuss this, But pulling the plug on
• 50:40
  Speaker 4: the UN, pulling the plug on NATO, I don't see
• 50:44
  Speaker 4: the benefit to US. NATO was one that we can
• 50:49
  Speaker 4: have a conversation about. But the UN I've been saying
• 50:53
  Speaker 4: for years, ever since I served for a little bit
• 50:57
  Speaker 4: as the advocacy chair for the United Nations Sociate and
• 51:00
  Speaker 4: learned about everything they were doing, and I saw the
• 51:02
  Speaker 4: importance of some of the work. But by and large,
• 51:06
  Speaker 4: this is something that should be totally nonprofit and it
• 51:09
  Speaker 4: should not be funded by the United States. They want
• 51:12
  Speaker 4: to bring all of these different strategic initiatives that they have,
• 51:17
  Speaker 4: then fine, let them do what they want to do
• 51:19
  Speaker 4: in whatever country they want to do it, But we
• 51:21
  Speaker 4: don't need to be a part of it. We already
• 51:23
  Speaker 4: have USAID and that's proven to be a disaster and
• 51:26
  Speaker 4: a mess. So I'm with Trump. I agree. Listen, if
• 51:30
  Speaker 4: you're our allies, if there's that whole Article five NATO
• 51:34
  Speaker 4: thing where you know, we got beef, we all got beef,
• 51:36
  Speaker 4: and then we go and have this conflict with Iran
• 51:39
  Speaker 4: and he's just like, look, I just need a couple
• 51:40
  Speaker 4: of ships, and we don't really need them, but you know,
• 51:43
  Speaker 4: if you could help us, that's great, and they're like,
• 51:45
  Speaker 4: nah nah, you know, once you're done, we'll go help
• 51:47
  Speaker 4: clean up afterwards. Noah nah nah, it's right, no, thank you.
• 51:53
  Speaker 4: Who needs fake friends like that, right because they benefit
• 51:56
  Speaker 4: from us? And he's one hundred percent right saying oh,
• 51:58
  Speaker 4: this was about the Soviet Union. He was misspeaking. He
• 52:01
  Speaker 4: was making the point and making it clear this organization
• 52:04
  Speaker 4: exists to protect them against a threat that no longer exists.
• 52:07
  Speaker 4: There is no Soviet Union, yet there's still a NATO.
• 52:13
  Speaker 4: To be politically correct, he says, so, you know, this
• 52:16
  Speaker 4: is about Russia. But as we all know, he recently
• 52:21
  Speaker 4: said he was grateful that Russia didn't get involved in
• 52:25
  Speaker 4: this war. What do you think he's doing a Turkey,
• 52:27
  Speaker 4: same exact thing. He's making sure Turkey doesn't get involved
• 52:30
  Speaker 4: in this war, right because the enemy of my enemy
• 52:34
  Speaker 4: is my friend. And guess who doesn't like Israel Turkey,
• 52:41
  Speaker 4: So while they may not necessarily be in cahoots with Iran,
• 52:45
  Speaker 4: they definitely share disdain for Israel. So I get the
• 52:50
  Speaker 4: political chess playing that goes on here. I do. And
• 52:53
  Speaker 4: I think Trump is doing a tremendous balancing act.
• 52:57
  Speaker 8: Right.
• 52:57
  Speaker 4: This isn't easy. So when you hear him say, oh,
• 52:59
  Speaker 4: my friend and we get along really well, we shouldn't
• 53:02
  Speaker 4: be sanctioning our friends. That's because we're making a deal here, right,
• 53:09
  Speaker 4: We're making sure that we don't get this person involved
• 53:13
  Speaker 4: in this war. And what does that look like, right,
• 53:15
  Speaker 4: somebody that has potentially a totally different army, Right, this
• 53:21
  Speaker 4: is not we don't need that. That puts the war
• 53:24
  Speaker 4: in a whole new frame. And what kind of mess
• 53:27
  Speaker 4: do we have there where we have a NATO member
• 53:31
  Speaker 4: getting in the war. So I think it's it behooves
• 53:35
  Speaker 4: the United States, It behooves this effort to make that happen.
• 53:38
  Speaker 4: And if you're wondering why Trump is willing to entertain
• 53:41
  Speaker 4: the idea of selling F thirty five's and whatnot, is
• 53:43
  Speaker 4: because that's what we do, right. We do it with
• 53:45
  Speaker 4: Poland we've done it with other countries, and Turkey's in
• 53:49
  Speaker 4: NATO country, all the more reason in my opinion, to
• 53:52
  Speaker 4: get rid of NATO altogether. But listen to this.
• 53:55
  Speaker 8: Yeah, we're going to be taking the sanctions off. Okay.
• 54:00
  Speaker 14: I don't want him to waste his time answering that question,
• 54:03
  Speaker 14: because we're working very closely with Marco Rubio, very famous man,
• 54:09
  Speaker 14: great Secretary of State, and with Scott Bessett and with
• 54:13
  Speaker 14: Pete and everybody else.
• 54:14
  Speaker 8: We're going to be taking to sanctions. So if it's
• 54:16
  Speaker 8: time to do that, Okay, we don't want to sanctioned friends.
• 54:23
  Speaker 8: It's very simple.
• 54:25
  Speaker 14: There's plenty of people we can sanction, and we are sanctioned.
• 54:27
  Speaker 14: We don't want to sanction friends. And because of the president,
• 54:32
  Speaker 14: you know, we have a very good relationship with the
• 54:35
  Speaker 14: new leader of Syria and he's done an amazing job
• 54:38
  Speaker 14: in a year and a half.
• 54:39
  Speaker 8: He's pulled the whole country together.
• 54:41
  Speaker 4: Now the jury is out for me, at least on
• 54:45
  Speaker 4: al Sharah al Jelani. Right, this is the guy, the
• 54:48
  Speaker 4: former al Qaeda leader that's now the president of Syria.
• 54:52
  Speaker 4: But Trump, in a concession to keep peace with Erdawan, says, okay,
• 54:55
  Speaker 4: this is the guy that you'll work with. Okay, you
• 54:58
  Speaker 4: like him. I love him, because what else are we
• 55:00
  Speaker 4: going to do? All right, put in a person that
• 55:02
  Speaker 4: we want. And then now we have the potential conflict
• 55:06
  Speaker 4: with Turkey visa viv, the issue with the Middle East
• 55:10
  Speaker 4: with Israel. So I get it. A lot of complicated
• 55:13
  Speaker 4: moving parts here, a lot to balance. Why do you
• 55:15
  Speaker 4: think this guy gets up and jumps on a plane
• 55:18
  Speaker 4: for you know, some ungodly number of hours to get
• 55:22
  Speaker 4: to Turkey to have this conversation. I'm sure you'd rather
• 55:25
  Speaker 4: be at one of his resorts playing golf. I know
• 55:27
  Speaker 4: I would, And I don't even like golf, or I
• 55:29
  Speaker 4: shouldn't say I don't like golf. I just don't really
• 55:30
  Speaker 4: play that often or ever. But that's that. Now. I
• 55:34
  Speaker 4: want to put a pin in Iran before we move
• 55:36
  Speaker 4: on and wrap up. And I want to share this
• 55:38
  Speaker 4: clip with you, fascinating clip in my opinion of an
• 55:42
  Speaker 4: American leftist saying that the Ayatola Kamine was the greatest
• 55:47
  Speaker 4: anti imperialist leader they'd seen.
• 55:50
  Speaker 17: He was a leader to all people of the world
• 55:52
  Speaker 17: who struggle against imperialism, against arrogance, against Zionism, against genocide,
• 55:58
  Speaker 17: to me, he was the greatest anti perialist leader to
• 56:03
  Speaker 17: have lived during my lifetime.
• 56:05
  Speaker 4: That's Kala Walsh. She is a excuse me, she is
• 56:09
  Speaker 4: a activist from Massachusetts, a political organizer. Uh. And she's
• 56:16
  Speaker 4: wearing a head covering and she's out of her mind
• 56:19
  Speaker 4: in my opinion. But this is the true nexus of
• 56:23
  Speaker 4: the the convergence of the red green axis. This is
• 56:28
  Speaker 4: it right here. The leftists see the effort by the
• 56:34
  Speaker 4: radical Islamists as anti imperialism, and that is where they
• 56:38
  Speaker 4: have common ground. This is why Castro's children went to
• 56:43
  Speaker 4: go visit the Ayatola back in the days. It's insane.
• 56:47
  Speaker 4: It's insane that they they find this one area and
• 56:50
  Speaker 4: they converge. But I believe Rush Limbaugh used the term
• 56:54
  Speaker 4: Islamo Marxist, or was it islamo Nazi. Might have been
• 56:57
  Speaker 4: islamo Nazi, but today it's Islam Marxist. And there truly
• 57:01
  Speaker 4: is a connection there that is just bizarre and equally
• 57:05
  Speaker 4: as bizarre, it's frightening. More to come straight ahead. I'm
• 57:08
  Speaker 4: Rich Valdes.
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: This is America, this is America.
• 57:29
  Speaker 5: He's making podcasting great again. This is America with Rich Valdez.
• 57:36
  Speaker 4: All right, I'm India. Welcome back, Rich Valdez, keeping your company.
• 57:39
  Speaker 4: And as we wrap up, I want to leave you
• 57:41
  Speaker 4: at a few thoughts, right, because one, we've got serious
• 57:46
  Speaker 4: accusations against Graham Platiner. Right, and again, no matter what
• 57:50
  Speaker 4: side you're on, you got to take those things seriously.
• 57:54
  Speaker 9: Uh.
• 57:55
  Speaker 4: With Iran, we got this massive funeral for the Supreme Leader,
• 57:58
  Speaker 4: how many taking place in tront some Democrats of course,
• 58:01
  Speaker 4: sucking up to the regime. Unbelievable. And it's those same
• 58:06
  Speaker 4: people that end up getting into these political scandals like
• 58:09
  Speaker 4: the one with Platner, and that stuff reminds me about,
• 58:12
  Speaker 4: you know, some of the the will chin Chas, some
• 58:15
  Speaker 4: of the drama I used to see back in my
• 58:17
  Speaker 4: barbershop in Hudson County. And I remember living in this
• 58:20
  Speaker 4: neighborhood in Hudson County, Union City, where it was filled
• 58:23
  Speaker 4: with Cuban bakeries like i'm Bia in Union City and
• 58:27
  Speaker 4: lots of Dominicans and Colombians and Mexicans moving into the neighborhood.
• 58:32
  Speaker 4: Everybody working hard, talking politics over a little cafacido. Some
• 58:36
  Speaker 4: I would eat that like it i'm Bia. I would
• 58:38
  Speaker 4: always hook it up with the best casitos and you
• 58:41
  Speaker 4: know those were the good old days, right, no time
• 58:43
  Speaker 4: for nonsense, just real talk, good conversation. That same straightforward
• 58:47
  Speaker 4: energy is what I try to bring you here every night,
• 58:50
  Speaker 4: just a real late night national town hall conversation, so familiar.
• 58:54
  Speaker 4: I hope I nailed it tonight, because America is still
• 58:58
  Speaker 4: a place where second chance has happened, where resilience beats
• 59:02
  Speaker 4: drama every single time, where being a liberty loving Latino
• 59:06
  Speaker 4: amigo from the neighborhood and you could still make it
• 59:13
  Speaker 4: to this microphone and talk to millions of people. So
• 59:16
  Speaker 4: I'm always grateful for that and humbled by it. And
• 59:18
  Speaker 4: before we keep it moving tonight and keep it pushing
• 59:23
  Speaker 4: a little scoreboard. From the World Cup action, Argentina staged
• 59:27
  Speaker 4: a thrilling comeback, beating Egypt three to two, Messi pulling
• 59:31
  Speaker 4: off that magic in the quarterfinals, and Switzerland held Columbia
• 59:35
  Speaker 4: to a zero zero draw Barcero's I'm sorry winning forward
• 59:40
  Speaker 4: to three on penalties to punch their ticket forward. So
• 59:44
  Speaker 4: interesting games. I'm not really a big football fan, but hey,
• 59:48
  Speaker 4: it doesn't disappoint at this stage anyway. I always say
• 59:52
  Speaker 4: you have to stand for something, because if you stand
• 59:55
  Speaker 4: for nothing, you'll fall for anything, and the only thing
• 59:58
  Speaker 4: necessary for evil to try, I am, is for good
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 4: people like you to sit there and do nothing. So
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 4: make sure you do something. I start approxima, take care,
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 4: good night, and God bless you America. I'm rich Chaldess,
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 4: and this is America.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 5: This is America.
