NYC Has Been Seized By The Communists | Episode 162

27:36Those are true believers. That room was populated with a bunch of Marxists who are very excited about their new hold on power in America's financial capital, New York City. That's what happened. Screaming about how enthusiastic they are. And Mamdani's speech last night was an angry one. Not one, not jubilant, kind of in your face, actually. Here he is bragging about being a socialist last night and saying he doesn't care if you don't like it. Cut seven. Watch. After all, the conventional wisdom would tell you that I am far from the perfect candidate. I am young, despite my best efforts to grow older.

28:21I am Muslim.

28:26I am a democratic socialist.

28:33And most damning of all, I refuse to apologize for any of this.

28:43He's an unapologetic totalitarian, an unapologetic Marxist. And in fact, his brand of Marxism is a very toxic and modern brew of Marxism. It's both a mix of class grievance, economic Marxism, as well as a newer form of racial Marxism, where he actually tries to get people to consider themselves based on their own racial categories as fighting back against a system of oppression. Of course, what he's advocating for is on the road to what historically has always been a system of oppression. Socialists, communists, totalitarian governments lead to human suffering. There's a reason, especially in the last century, that all of those ideologies, when represented by governments, lead to massive body counts.

29:40People die by the millions. That is what history has demonstrated over and over and over again. And yet this is sold as some sort of vehicle out of oppression. Listen to Mamdani last night citing the various racial categories that he says are responsible for him being elected. Notice that the words white and American never actually come up at any point in this list because he considers that to be oppressive. Watch.

30:14Thank you to those so often forgotten by the politics of our city who made this movement their own. I speak of Yemeni bodega owners and Mexican abuelas. Senegalese taxi drivers and Uzbek nurses.

30:37Trinidadian line cooks and Ethiopian aunties. Yes, aunties.

30:47He's a Marxist. It's basically some combo of old Marxism and neo-Marxism. And then finally, from Mamdani's speech last night, there was a portion where he was talking about the way that he will govern as mayor of New York City. And he's expressing something that you, of course, know instinctively about what the left's designs are for the people of this country. And it's to be involved in every single aspect of your life. That no decision you make should be in any way liberated from the government hovering over it. Now, he sells this as a good thing. He says it's great. The government's going to be involved in the biggest problems of our country and in your smallest possible concerns.

31:37The government will be there. Listen to this. Now, this is the left is taking this as some sign of hope. The rest of us are taking this as a very worrisome sign of what's to come. Watch. Here he is. Cut nine. We will prove that there is no problem too large for government to solve and no concern too small for it to care about. Nine most terrifying words in the English language are I'm from the government and I'm here to help. Yeah, I would trust the Gipper on this one. The Gipper's got the history on his side to support his version of events, which is, hey, that's terrifying, actually, to come out of your mouth, you Marxist.

32:18There are some lefties right now who are stunned by what they saw last night. They didn't know Zoran Mamdani was like this. How did they miss it?

35:14This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. All right. All right. So we're we're picking up the pieces of what happened in New York last night as New York City is been a complete just a complete disaster. They elected a Soviet, a guy who's, you know, referring to all of his Marxist icons as he gives his victory speech last night. Basically a gigantic F you to anybody who believes in what made New York City great, what made America great, you know, what it means to actually uplift people, to make it so that people have the kind of opportunity that causes their families to flourish.

35:52He's against all of that. He's against it. And he was angry last night. Kind of interesting, isn't it, that a guy who just won an electoral race, you'd think he'd be more jubilant and more gracious. But no, no gratitude, no graciousness, nothing. Instead, just anger, aggression in your face. I have power now. It's funny. It actually stunned one CNN commentator, a lefty called Van Jones, who noticed that Zoran Mamdani was doing a lot of yelling. This is not the guy we saw during the campaign. What happened? Cut 10. Watch this. I think he missed an opportunity. I think the Mamdani that we saw on the campaign trail, who was a lot more calm, who was a lot warmer, who was a lot more embracing, was not present in that speech.

36:44And I think that Mamdani is the one you need to hear from tonight. There are a lot of people trying to figure out, can I get on this train with him or not? Is he going to include me? Is he going to be more of a class warrior, even in office? I think he missed a chance tonight to open up and bring more people into the tent. I think his tone was sharp. I think he was using the microphone in a way that he was almost yelling. And that's not the mom-dodding that we've seen on TikTok and the great interviews and stuff like that. So I felt like there's a little bit of a character switch here where the warm, open, embracing guy that's close to working people was not on stage tonight.

37:26And there was some other voice on stage. That said, he's very young. And he just pulled off something that's very, very difficult. And I wouldn't write him off, but I think he missed an opportunity to open himself up tonight. And I think that that will probably cost him going forward. If that's honest analysis, Van Jones is a sucker. Because the rest of us could see that coming from 10 ,000 miles away. Zoram Mamdani is an actor. He's used 15 million different accents to represent himself in public. He constantly is shape-shifting his political views in order to pretend that they represent everybody.

38:02But the second he is with people that he shares an ideology with, with Marxists, he tells the truth about his goals. He is perfectly happy with crime running rampant. He's perfectly happy tearing down the things that have improved humanity. Perfectly happy with that. That's his position. It always has been and it always will be. In fact, among the people who were present last night at Zoran Mamdani's victory party were pretty dedicated Soviets, including a fellow called Hassan Piker. Now, you may not know much about this guy. In fact, I don't know a tremendous amount about him. All I know is that he's a pretty dedicated lefty.

38:41And he was recently in a video where he was torturing his dog for standing up during a podcast. Yeah, that guy. Hassan Piker was there last night and he is mad at the United States. This is the kind of person who goes to Zoran Mamdani's victory party. He says one of the worst things about America is that we beat the Soviet Union in the Cold War. Watch Cut 11. Watch this. We are in the heart of the imperial core. This is the country that defeated the USSR, unfortunately. And the reality of the matter is there's a lot of antagonism. There's no class consciousness in the United States of America.

39:20It's one of the things I try to address every day with my commentary.

39:26We need a communist revolution. He said one of the unfortunate things in the United States is we don't have enough of this. We need more of a communist revolution. No, here's what we actually need. We need to confront this. We need to confront this. This communism, this totalitarianism, we've defeated it before outside of our shores. We have to defeat it here. Democrats like Van Jones recognize that this is an electoral albatross that's hanging over them. This is not a good thing for their electoral chances going forward. What works in New York City definitely does not apply to the rest of the country.

40:04New York City is the kind of place that elected a pothead called Bill de Blasio, a communist pothead, who was in Gracie Mansion getting high all the time. But this is even more insidious, a guy who's pretty openly Marxist outright, who is now taking the helm as the mayor of New York City. In the closing days of this campaign, Democrats faced a choice. do they embrace him or not? And will it be to their electoral peril going forward? They know this is a problem. They won't say it much in public, but I'll say it on their behalf. It's a problem for Democrats. And so if there's anything that we can take from this that is of use to us, it's forcing Democrats to own the destruction and radicalism of Zoran Mamdani.

40:53Hakeem Jeffries is the minority leader in the United States House of Representatives. He's a New Yorker. In the closing days of the election, he begrudgingly endorsed Zoran Mamdani for a bunch of reasons, including that he's just a coward. He doesn't actually have any intellectual strength whatsoever. And he acceded to the radical elements of his party, as he so often does. Chuck Schumer wrote out the end of this election without endorsing Zoran Mamdani. Chuck Schumer is also a New Yorker, and he decided to hold his nose and kind of ignore it. He didn't condemn it, certainly, and he should. As a Jewish Democrat, you'd think he would be condemning the guy who's inflaming anti-Semitism like crazy.

41:35But no, he didn't bother getting involved. He's a coward in his own way. He doesn't want to be linked to Zoran Mamdani. Barack Obama, who always thinks he's much more clever than he actually is, he closed this campaign not by endorsing Zoran Mamdani, but by placing a phone call to him to give him advice or something. He thought that that would make it seem like the Democrat Party wasn't wrapping itself around Zoran. But the truth is, they are. Zoran Mamdani is now, in many ways, the most visible, high-profile representation of their entire party. That party is overtaken by one of the most destructive ideologies that human history has ever known.

42:22Certainly one of the most murderous. Again, huge body counts in the last century. Zoran Mamdani is in so many ways representative of who the Democrat Party is today. So rather than not talk about it, rather than focus on other issues, which is what Democrats want us to do. No, no, no. We should talk about it. We should focus on it and we should rub their faces in it. There should be national electoral consequences for that party becoming the Marxist party of Zoran Mamdani. No question whatsoever. So if Republicans got anything yesterday out of these elections, that is clearly a massive piece of this.

43:06Yes, they're commies and everyone needs to know about it. Another thing to think about from yesterday, we have a very challenging situation going on in Virginia, which I was referring to earlier in this program. In Virginia, Jay Jones won his race. the attorney general's race went to Jay Jones. Now, this is after a number of surveys showed that Virginians were very likely to support Jason Meara as the incumbent Republican attorney general to keep the seat. In the end, not so. Virginians, mostly in Northern Virginia, Democrats got Jay Jones across the finish line. Now, why is that? They lied. They lied to pollsters.

43:51And think about it. You get a phone call. Do you support the guy who says he wants to kill his political opponents, kill their children, piss on their graves? These are all text messages from Jay Jones or that conveyed that he wanted to see cops killed in order to affect political change. You're going to get Democrats who are going to deceive pollsters about their support. But in the end, when they get inside that booth with a secret ballot or they fill out the ballot at home or they go to the never ending early elections in Virginia, when they do it, they pull the lever for the Democrat. They lie to the pollster.

44:25They vote for the killer. That's what they did. And so Jay Jones gets across the finish line. We have talked all year about this because and not just this year, including last year, as we saw President Trump nearly assassinated multiple times. Democrats have a very sizable and very destructive assassination culture. It's just true. Democrats talk about Republicans in existential ways. They will either openly and certainly behind closed doors talk about how they're perfectly content with seeing Republicans killed. Democrats to this day are still celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk as some great victory for our country.

45:05Of course, it's not. It's completely destabilizing. It makes Americans more angry at one another, and it will be the way it could be in the end, an ingredient for bringing our country down. We don't want that. We want to bring it together. We want people to aspire to their highest angels, you know, and to get to a point where things are good and wholesome and orderly and where we can disagree without being disagreeable. That's, of course, where we want to be. It's not where we are right now. We have one political party with massive numbers of people who are perfectly content with political assassinations and political violence.

45:38That needs to be addressed. How do we address that? Well, one, obviously winning elections is important. Republicans need to work. No more taking anything for granted. The good thing about the audience that I'm speaking to right now is my guess is, by and large, you are the kind of person who is actively engaged in electoral politics in your community. And if you're not, I'm encouraging you to be. This show has spent a lot of time on electoral politics. It's important. The only way we win as a country is if we get the right people in power to do it. I'm going to continue to do that. In fact, I've personally been out on the campaign trail working with candidates, endorsing them, helping them in their campaigns.

46:16And I'm going to continue to do that. I think it's important. But to whatever station you are in life, I think what's important right now is that we do our best to tell the truth, to demonstrate empathy, and to try and work for the betterment of our fellow American. Engage in your civic organizations. Go to church. Pray for sure. prayer is not empty the left pretends it is prayer is important we need to rely on it because we're undertaking a spiritual war we need to pray to the Lord above that he can open the eyes of our fellow Americans who have their eyes closed to reality right now even to the existence of God himself their eyes need to be opened we need to be better as a country but the idea that you would sit back and just hope it gets better that's not gonna work that's not gonna work.

47:00And if you believe in the creator, you know that you can't just sit back and do nothing. You've been given blessings. Use them. Use them. It's a betrayal of our creator not to. That's important. That's really important. We've got to have a revival in our country, certainly a spiritual one for sure. But really, as you know, there's really only two options. One, either we descend into utter chaos and we get into a new civil war and we don't want that. Civil wars are bloody, disgusting, destructive things. Hundreds of thousands of Americans were killed in the last one. We can't have that happen. Certainly, we've got the makings of a civil war.

47:44We've got all sorts of animosity directed at President Trump and people who voted for him. And it's spilled out into the kind of vicious violence that we've seen directed at people like Charlie Kirk and the president himself. But to the extent that we can stop that, we have to. That means enforcing the law. That means locking up bad guys. That means going after the networks that are inflaming extremism in the United States. That means restoring order aggressively. That means holding people accountable who have violated their oath of office. I am, as you know, grateful to see the prosecutions of people like James Comey, Letitia James, John Bolton, LaMonica McIver, Catabooca Zela, all these other Democrats who have violated their oaths of office or who intend to or have broken the law or obstructed law enforcement.

48:27But that should only be the beginning. It shouldn't be the end. We're hearing, as I talked with Julie Kelly yesterday, some indication that we're going to see prosecutions coming up for a grand conspiracy against all of these people in January. And we should. We should get that. It's for all the violations of our laws, including attacking the president of the United States on the false claim that he's a colluder with Russia. The Arctic Frost attempts to go after the entire Republican Party. By the way, how many people have you heard talking about this outside of this program? The Arctic Frost.

48:59Some have. Some great Americans have focused on it. But the media has strayed completely away from it. I way off the ball, not talking about one of the biggest scandals of our entire lifetime as sitting United States senators, Republicans and some congressmen were being spied upon that all of the institutions of the right was being attacked by the government. If you want to pass out, we have to fix the things that are in our control right now so that we can fix the things eventually that are outside of our control, including the spiritual insanity of the left. That has to happen. The Republican Party, to the extent that it controls anything right now, which is a lot at the in Washington, certainly needs to double down on the Trump agenda.

49:43No more distractions, no more allowing Democrats to obstruct when you have the power to do something. And doing something means opening up the government, making the government more efficient, getting the government out of the way. And yes, that also includes addressing health care. Right now, insofar as Democrats have any talking points that they wield in electoral politics, health care is the one that they keep bringing up. Now, I've told you extensively that what they're really talking about is Democrats have made health care in our country ridiculously expensive, absurdly expensive. Why is health care?

50:23Why have health care costs skyrocketed? Why are you paying so much more in terms of your insurance premiums? Why are deductibles sky high? Why is it so hard to afford drugs? Why is it so difficult to get in to see doctors and specialists? What happened? I'll tell you what happened. The United States government, led by the Democrats, interfered in one-sixth of our economy and made it utter shit. They have destroyed our health care system. And so now those health care costs are out of control. They did that. They called it the Affordable Care Act because once again, it was a lie. It was like the Inflation Reduction Act.

51:01They were lying to you. The name of the legislation was the opposite of its effect. Health care in the United States is unaffordable. Right now, this government shutdown, insofar as Democrats are making an argument for why they sustain it, is, well, we need Obamacare subsidies. We need subsidies to bring down health care costs. That's a cover-up operation. What they want is you, the federal taxpayer, to cover up how expensive they've made our health care system. And it's a disgusting, crony, corrupt arrangement. This is a merger, as usual, between the government, the big insurance companies, the pharmaceutical companies, and they're all taking advantage of us.

51:44All of us. That's what they've been doing. And it's time for that to end. So what Republicans need to do is not only get the government back open, but they need to present a real health care plan, a real one that really brings down costs. And I'm not talking about the government controlling health care. I'm talking about the opposite. I'm talking about the government getting out of the way of the health care system. There is no reason that doctors should be spending 90 percent of their time filling out government paperwork and 10 percent of their time actually seeing patients. That's insane. We need to get the government out of all of this.

52:24Doctors, you want to lower health care costs? Have doctors see patients with more frequency so that they can actually help address health issues before they even emerge to make Americans healthy again. And if Americans are healthy, health care costs go down. Is this very hard to understand? This is a very obvious pattern of logic, and we should be employing it. Make America healthy again. If you do, health care costs come down. Stop with the cowardice. Stop with ducking the issue. Stop with pretending we can't confront this. No, you have an obligation to confront it. If Republicans want to win in the midterms next year, they need to represent the interests of Americans.

53:04And what are those interests? They want to bring down costs inside their homes. They want to be able to feed their families. They want to be able to flourish. They want low energy costs. They want to be able to start a business. They want to keep more of their own money, and they want to have a great country again. They want their borders back. They want illegal foreign nationals kicked out of the country, and they'd like for us to be involved in fewer foreign wars. Is that so much to ask? No, actually, it's the core thing to ask. We want our country taken care of. So all of this sort of like arguing on the edges of like, oh, what kind of campaign ads should we be running?

53:35and like, you know, where could we have done little electoral shifts in order to achieve some sort of victory? That's all bullshit. How about just focus on winning Americans over by virtue of your success? It shouldn't just take Donald Trump being successful and you thinking you're going to ride his coattails. Not going to work. You have an obligation to actually meet the demands of voters right now. Right now. So when the question becomes, what can we do about this? Where do we go from here? The answer is we all have to work. Nothing worth achieving in life comes easily. At the local level, you and I need to be engaged with our local governments.

54:22We need to be fighting for the stuff that's closest to us. Those are the most important elections usually for most of us. But going up into politics at the national level, all of these lawmakers, all of them, all of these Republicans, anyone who claims to be Republican should be getting on the same page immediately and fighting for what you and I voted for now over and over and over again. You want to win elections? Be worthy of our votes. President Trump's coalition is built with low propensity voters. It wasn't always this way. Republicans were often high propensity voters, people who showed up on election day pretty reliably.

55:00But President Trump has reinvented the political coalitions in the United States. And he's brought in so many people who are normally disengaged from politics, who for the first time in their lives realize that actually President Trump might be good for me. And he has been. He was good in the first administration. He improved wages in the United States. He brought down taxes. He provoked human flourishing. And voters decided after watching the Biden administration, it was time to bring that back again. And the president's had some success. We've seen the numbers. Gas prices have come down to lows that we haven't seen in real dollars for decades.

55:35That's a big deal. Are gas prices still too high in some places? Yes, that's true, especially where Democrats run the show and they tax the hell out of you when you go to the pump. The president's brought down inflation to meaningful levels. Grocery prices, the rise in grocery prices has been arrested big time. The cost of eggs, it came down a lot. Remember when the left was pretending like President Trump was responsible for egg prices being sky high? They've come down a lot. The president's got a lot to be proud of. He's imposed tariffs on other countries. He's actually brought a lot of money into the Treasury by virtue of the tariffs.

56:07Inflation has not gone up despite the Paul Krugman doomsday claims about what was going to happen. No, he's been a great success. But in the end, voters, including many who are not quite as engaged as you and I are, are going to look at what they're bringing home, how things are in their lives, whether or not they are flourishing. And the reality, of course, in America is that a lot of people are still in credit card debt. A lot of people are trying to make ends meet. For a lot of people, things are much too expensive still, and especially in categories like health care. So, again, if Republicans are going to win, they have to address these things.

56:41And finally, when it comes to these Republicans, if you are not focused on our country, if you are not focused on our betterment, if you are not focused on bringing those costs down and getting the government out of the way of our success, you need to go. We need to get rid of you. The controlled burn of the Republican Party needs to continue. We have way too many people who are going along to get along, who think they can pull the wool over your eyes, who think that they can just ride out this moment that whatever energy you and I have put into getting Donald Trump elected is just going to go away when Donald Trump goes away.

57:22They've been pining for that for as long as Donald Trump has been on the political scene. And I'm here to tell you that's never happening. This energy, while it's vested in Trump right now, will continue to exist in the United States. We didn't vote for Trump just because he's Trump. We voted for Trump because he shared our priorities. And that is the metric by which we're going to move forward as a country. Engage in your community. Get back to church and keep fighting for what you care about. Nothing worth achieving in life will come easily. It will only come from work. We have a great country.

58:01I don't want a civil war. I want civility and we have to fight for that. I've got a lot more coming today on the big national radio show. We're going to discuss a lot with these campaigns, what they mean for America, where we go from here. I'm optimistic about our future because I'll give you one last immense reason to be optimistic. You ready for this? Those of us who believe in God know that in the end we win. It's as simple as that. if you believe in scripture in the end we win yes this is this is depressing what we've just witnessed but in the long run everything's going to be great I assure you can't wait to join you again on the next edition of Vince the big national radio show the Vince show check out the local listings you can watch us rumble.com slash Vince we do it live as always appreciate you back tomorrow We'll be right back.
