The Exact Moment Hakeem Jeffries Regretted Threatening Ron DeSantis

27:09But according to ChatGBT, probably around 8 % to 15 % of homeless are working. The idea that she's talking about that they're not really drug users. And again, a lot of this is self-reported. So I would say you don't even have to look at stats. Go to LA. If you're just a psychopath and want to take a vacation, go to LA and see what's going on. And, oh my, how many jobs are you? You're just a college student selling the smoothed end. And that guy taking the dump at the CVS at the entrance, he's just, he's a college professor. And so then they've got this other guy. It's just such a clown car. He says Becerra is awful.

27:43Katie Porter is just horrendous. And then they've got this guy, Tom Steyer. He is a billionaire, but he's all about raising taxes on billionaires and millionaires, of course. And that's why they're all fleeing. and he just wants, basically he doesn't want them to behead him. That's pretty much what this guy is doing. And you can just see it on his face. He just looks like, like, what am I doing? And it's like, if you have that much money, what are you doing, man? Anyway, he really, he's very concerned that we're going to be racially profiling if we were to find out that, you know, the truck drivers actually were American and spoke English.

28:18Mr. Steyer, where do you draw the line on this? Should language proficiency for truckers be strictly enforced, even if it means that some of them will probably lose their jobs? You have 60 seconds. Look, I agree with what was said, which is we don't know the context of this stop. But what I can say is this. Racial profiling is illegal. And in fact, picking on people based on the color of their skin in the state of California is illegal. You see what he did there? Nobody asked about skin color. The question was, should truck drivers speak English? And he made it about skin color because that's what they do.

28:56Everything is racism. They find racism everywhere except where it actually is. But you absolutely can make an argument that, I don't know, basic things like truck drivers, that they should speak English. And also, if you've come to this country, back in the day when people came to America, 100 years ago, coming from all over the world, They basically learned English. Pretty much everybody. And if the older people that came didn't, you know, they were kind of too old to do it. You're middle-aged and up. You didn't learn English. You guaranteed that your kids were gonna speak English. You guys want this perpetual separate group of people who, oh, let's put up signs in their language and let's start teaching their language in schools and everything else.

29:39And then what will happen two or three generations down the way? We'll have 87 languages here. Nobody will be able to communicate with everybody. You also will be telling us how awful the whole place is, and we're going to all want to kill each other. Now, there was one sane person on the stage, and he's originally British, which kind of is hilarious in some weird sense. He was also former Fox host Steve Hilton. I've been on his show. And here he is being asked the same question, basically, about the truck drivers. Mr. Hilton, would you require full compliance with the federal language standards for truck drivers?

30:12You have 60 seconds. So I've discussed this with someone called Marcus Coleman from Bakersfield. His beautiful daughter Delilah was put into a coma by someone driving a truck. An illegal immigrant, didn't speak English, and his daughter now disabled for life. That's what we're dealing with here. It is completely ridiculous that we have people driving on our roads who can't understand road signs and can't speak English. So, yes, of course, and I've discussed this with my friend Sean Duffy, the Transportation Secretary, we will not be issuing commercial driver licenses when I'm governor to people who are illegally here and who don't speak English.

30:53That is obvious common sense. Obvious common sense, which is likely why he will not be governor of California, because they don't seem to want that. But, Steve, I wish you an awful lot of luck. Let's get Steve on the show if he has some time before the election. and the fact that he's up there with these crazy people, that's the answer. The fact that these questions are even being asked, should these people be able to speak English? I don't know, when you're on the road, should you have to be able to understand a road sign? And you're a commercial driver, is that where we're at? I guess that is where we're at in certain states.

31:28Here's a bit more on Steve Hilton about becoming an American. One of the proudest days of my life was the day I became an American citizen. It happened in a ceremony right here in San Francisco. So it is a deep honor for me to be endorsed by the President of the United States. And here's the thing that's going to help every Californian when I'm governor, is that we will have a constructive relationship and partnership with the federal government, which would be the case, I would hope, for any party in that situation, so that we can make things better in California. work with the president and his administration to manage our forests better, to harvest the timber so we can build the single family homes we need for young families, to work to increase California energy production as he wants to do, so we can lower gas prices, to fight the fraud in our government so we can cut spending and cut taxes, to work to enforce our immigration law.

32:32Isn't that something you have a first generation immigrant from across the pond who is deeply proud to be an American, who is now endorsed by the president of the United States, who just laid out probably five or six key points, key things that he would do if he was governor. He takes complete and utter common sense approach to all of these issues. And we will see what the people of California do. Now let's jump over to National Treasurer, Louisiana Senator John Kennedy, because as you know, the Save Act is currently hung up in the House right now. And it sounds like John Thune is not doing much with it.

33:10But here's Kennedy laying out basic simplicity. The American people no longer have confidence in our elections. You can debate whether that's justified or not, but it's just a natural fact. I think that we can restore confidence in our federal elections if we do three things. If we come up with a way to make sure that everybody who is registered to vote is an American citizen. I think we can restore confidence in our elections. If number two, we pass a rule for federal elections that says you have to prove you are who you say you are in order to vote. And number three, I would like to see us, I consider this part of the Save America Act, but it's not traditionally part.

34:06I think we ought to go back to having an election day and not an election month. You know, isn't it interesting? Steve Hilton a moment ago just laid out basic reality, common sense reality on a stage with radical lunatics. And there's Kennedy doing the exact same thing. Like, should we figure out who's here and whether they should vote or not, and ensure that if you're legal, you can vote, and if you're not, you can't? Pretty basic. Lowest common denominator stuff. Could there be some other things around that that ensure that the people are going to be confident that the election works? Of course.

34:48And he can say it calmly and plainly, where these other people have everything they say. It's sort of like the Timo Obama thing. It's these bumper sticker slogans that mean absolutely nothing as they drag us all to the precipice of hell. So the people of Cali will have to decide what they want to do in their gubernatorial election. And for those of us that are just old fashioned Americans, I think it's around 85 % of us, 80 to 85 % of us who want the SAVE Act passed. If the Republicans cannot do that, well then, as I said, they may be just a tiny bit better than the Democrats, but they ain't that great.

35:23Guys, let's talk about Van Man for a second. People have been telling me that my lips have never been this moist on the show. That's what they're constantly telling me, and it is true, I am using this lip balm. It is incredible. Let me tell you a few things that these people are doing. If you think brands like Dr. Squatch, Burt's Bees, or Native are still the small, wholesome companies they once were, think again. Most of them have been bought by massive corporations and private equity firms, and over time, they've started cutting corners. But one company's doing things differently, the Van Man Company.

35:54They were early with the tallow movement, creating grass-fed tallow moisturizers before it became trendy and they've stayed consistent ever since. Here's why it matters. Tallow's one of the best moisturizers you can use because its fatty acids are almost identical to your skin's natural oils. Your skin feels softer, smoother, and deeply nourished without that greasy artificial residue you get from products packed with chemicals and fillers. Plus, because there's no junk in it, A little goes a long way. One jar lasts much longer than you'd expect. And it's not just a moisturizer. Tallow balm can replace your lotion, night cream, wrinkle cream, even things like Neosporin or diaper balm.

36:28It's powerful enough to actually support skin healing yet made from ingredients so clean you could literally eat them. Are you ready to ditch the corporate chemicals? Go to vanman.shop slash Rubin. Use code Rubin for 15 % off your first order. That's vanman.shop slash Rubin, code Rubin for 15%. You will have smooth lips. I am telling you, I just keep a bar of soap literally on my desk, that's how good it smells. They wanted me to drop the soap at the end of this thing, but I'm just not gonna do that. That's not this kind of shit. All right, let's talk about more crazy Democrats for just a second.

37:01And this one really is at the top of the list. So this Hassan Piker guy, we've talked a bit about him over the last couple months, I suppose. He is the nephew of Chunk Yogurt, the guy who runs the Young Turks Network, and if you thought he was a screaming, psychotic anti-American lunatic who used to sign my checks, well, his nephew, Hassan, is even worse, and he has become the it thing for the Democrats. And I would set this segment up by mentioning something that I've mentioned many times, which is Jordan Peterson used to go to D.C. and talk to Democrats, and he would always ask them the same thing.

37:37When do you think the left goes too far? And he would always say, no one could ever give him an answer. because generally they don't come from first principles. They just want power so that they can progress versus Republicans, conservative-leaning people. There's, oh, at least usually it has something to do with religion, but then there's also, oh, we believe in the foundational principles of the United States of America and individual liberty and all of those things. So there was never a moment where you could get these people to sort of moderate themselves. So every time they lose, in their minds, It's like proof that they're right and the system is rigged against them.

38:14So they keep getting to worse and worse positions and they keep bringing in worse and worse people. This Hassan Piker guy probably is the top of that. And the crazy part is because he has this huge audience on Twitch with young people who he's radicalizing at a very fast pace, I would say. All the Democrats are meeting with him, despite the fact that he said that America deserved 9-11, despite the fact that he's done videos telling kids how to build drones, Don't suicide bomb yourself anymore. Just build a drone. You can get it on some Chinese website. He's called for blood in the streets. Who is the, he wanted to, what was it?

38:47He called to the assassination of Rick Scott. I mean, the guy's a piece of work, but here he is. And this is where it's gonna get really dangerous. And I have warned about this for years, guys. So he goes on this New York Times podcast and he's in different clothes now. And you'll note the soft lighting and all of that stuff with these two chicks who really could make you blow your brains out. And here they discuss the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson by Luigi Mangione. Take a look. Engels wrote about the concept of social murder. And Brian Thompson, as the UnitedHealthcare CEO, was engaging in a tremendous amount of social murder.

39:30The systematized forms of violence, the structural violence of poverty. the for-profit paywalled system of healthcare in this country. And the consequences of that are tremendous amounts of pain, tremendous amounts of violence, tremendous amounts of deaths. And that was a fascinating story for me because Americans are very draconian about crime and punishment. They're very black and white on this issue. And yet, because of the pervasive pain that the private health care system had created for the average American, I saw so many people immediately understand why this death had taken place. Okay, he is really, really dangerous and really, really evil.

40:25Now, the difference between me and him is that I don't excuse death. I don't say, well, you know, if you were to kill my political opponent, I could kind of get there and understand why. But he basically is acting as the judge, jury, and executioner with made-up terms, social murder. And then you can see he's just regurgitating a whole bunch of things. Now, first off, tell me, person watching this right now, if you had a horrible disease, pick your disease, where would you want to be besides the United States of America? Now, that's not to say that in certain countries they could do this, that, or the other thing better.

40:59It's not to say that our system is perfect. But in essence, what he said, he kept saying private. So are you, Hassan Piker, what gives you the right to someone else's work? Like, that is, you don't have a right to someone else doing something for you. Now, we're also, and I'll get more to this in a second, we're on the verge of so many things with AI and robotics that healthcare is gonna change massively thanks to technology, but they also hate technology. But this is deeply, the broader point here was this is deeply dangerous because basically what he gives you all that language, and it sounds very nice, and those two girls just sitting there like, ugh.

41:37He's, also, those are two exact type of girls he would mock relentlessly on his show, right? But basically he's saying, yeah, you know, well, there's a bad system in place, and this guy worked for a bad system, so I can understand why people would kill him. And of course, the irony of that is that everyone could use that against you, right? You, Hassan. Somebody could say, well, you know, I think progressive values are really, really bad, which they are, and I don't like big government, which is terrible, and I don't like that these people take over the streets, which they do, and I don't like that they call for genocide, which they do, and I don't like that they hate America, which they do, and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

42:13Guess I'm going to have to kill him, right? Like, I'm not for that. But once you say, well, we can kind of rationalize where we're just going to kill random people because they do things the way we don't like, game on. Game on. And it'll go every which way. It is worth noting, ex-commentator History Boomer pointed out that, well, Mr. Social Murder right there. Piker is worth$12 million and reportedly makes at least$1 million a year. He lives in a$2.74 million house. GiveWell estimates it costs$5 ,000 to save a life via charity. So by keeping his own money, by his own logic, he's socially murdering 200 people a year.

42:54I'm gonna guarantee you that guy gives nothing in charity. I give an awful lot in charity. I don't need any credit for it or anything else. Actually, I now feel gross that I even said that, but I give to charities that I think are important and doing good work. And we can check the numbers on this, but generally speaking, conservatives give something like 80 % more in charity than liberals do because liberals want other people to do it with, well, they want to think they're doing it with other people's money where conservatives don't want the government to do it, so they happen to generally be more involved.

43:25But now I want to connect this to something else. We're going to kind of bounce around here, but you'll see how we tie it together. The other part of all of this is that the Democrats are also on a massive anti-technology and anti-AI crusade right now. And the thing is, I say this all the time, you know me, I'm a sci-fi guy. I can do all of dystopian ways that this can all go wrong, right? I can do all of that from the Matrix to the movie, AI to Terminator and Skynet turns on and everything else. However, technology is coming. You quite literally cannot stop it. And the best thing that you can do is be aware of it and figure out how to incorporate AI, incorporate robotics into your life, and also understand that as these things become more ubiquitous, it's going to be like every sci-fi movie.

44:12There will be capsules that you will literally, whatever disease you have, you will be able to get into. And it could help you cure cancer. It could perform a heart surgery. It could quite literally help a woman give birth. Like we are about with nanobots and all of these things, we are on the verge of solving things. But the Democrats actually don't really want things solved. They want you in a perpetual state of fear. So listen to Bernie on AI. Never before in the history of this country have so few people held so much wealth and so much power. And these very greedy multi-billionaires are not satisfied with what they have right now.

44:59they want more and more and more and they don't care who they step on to get it. All right, first I'll do it. I haven't done it in a while. I'm Bernie Sanders. I keep looking this way while I'm talking. Is the robot standing there with the gun right there? Okay. Bernie, I'm Bernie Sanders. So I don't really want any sort of actual progress. I'm a progressive, so I don't want progress. Progress would be if robots and AI were able to make things easier for everybody and help us do things, but I'm Bernie Sanders, and I want to tell you that you have to have a job at McDonald's for the rest of your life at$17.50 an hour, and that's why I want it, even though I know you'll obviously be replaced by a robot.

45:46But then when you're angry because you got replaced by the robot, maybe I can get you to burn down some sort of Republican club because I'm Bernie Sanders. Why do I, what's over there? What is that? Oh, my God. They want you to fear everything. We have to go in to this new technological phase that we're going into. We have to go in with a skeptical eye. But there will be so many things. It's so interesting. You could take that Bernie clip and then, maybe we'll do this for tomorrow's show. You take that Bernie clip and then take Elon talking about robotics and AI. Elon is going, man, wait till we have this stuff.

46:26And we are quite literally gonna send some robots with 3D printers to the moon. And you know what they're gonna do? They're gonna build robots. And then they're gonna print things, literally print physical things. And we are gonna build stations that will be autonomous. And then that will be the launching point. Like there are so many crazily unbelievable things we are on the horizon for, but the Democrats want fear. And the thing is, Bernie, to whatever extent you could even be right about any of this, it doesn't matter. The fear that you are creating is going to lead people to doing crazy things.

47:05That is the point. And how do we know it? Well, there's evidence of it. We didn't even cover this story. This is from a couple weeks ago from the New York Times. Molotov cocktail is hurled at the home of OpenAI CEO Sam Altman. The device burned an exterior gate of the house in San Francisco. the police said, and it was unclear whether the artificial intelligence executive was home. The authorities arrested a suspect. Now, we found out a little bit more and listen to this. The guy arrested is 20-year-old Daniel Moreno-Gama, who was driven by extreme anti-AI sentiment and fear of artificial intelligence causing human extinction.

47:37The suspect wrote about his fear that the AI race is going to cause human extinction and wrote a three-part manifesto about AI's evils and was addressed to Altman. In his writings, Daniel stated, if by some miracle Sam Altman lives, then I would take this as a sign from the divine to redeem himself. So now do you see why we did these two segments together? What Hassan Piker said right there at the beginning one was, well, there's social murder and I don't like the healthcare system. I don't like this privatized thing. And Brian Karp was a guy with a job. He had something to do with it. So I can understand why Luigi just executed him in the middle of Times Square.

48:11And then you have Bernie raising the alarm about AI and the billionaires are coming and they're going to have all of the robots and they're going to kill everybody and make us slaves and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And then what happens? Well, some crazy person basically repeats exactly what Bernie said in a manifesto as he throws a Molotov cocktail at Sam Altman's house. So they are trying to normalize this stuff, guys. Hear me. Get this one through the pipes and get it because once you normalize You can literally come after anyone. So is Brian Thompson, who again, he's justifying the murder.

48:52He's saying, well, I get why people did it. All right, well, I don't even wanna name names here, but literally any Republican, anyone who doesn't believe what you think, anyone who thinks the system's okay, and we're doing the best we can. Well, you can pretty much justify it, right? Why not? Why not? Here is Palantir CEO Alex Karp on the Brian Thompson killing, and he explains a little bit of the psychology that Hassan and others are illustrating. It is very important that people who are smart and have integrity and are willing to fight win. And, you know, it's like, and as a parting note, it's super important to stand up.

49:35You know, it starts with footsie. footsie, you know, pagan religion, protesting in front of everything where people are just trying to go to school and or protesting against Israel or not having an interest in defending the U.S. And it ends with people justifying murder, murdering CEOs. They're completely linked. And that's why you just have to stand up and fight this stuff. And at every turn. And when When people are asking you to give money, they're playing footsie with our destruction. And there is no alternative to America and the world. It is the only thing that works at this scale. It's the only place where people actually are meritocratic and fair.

50:20That is completely right. It's why I end so many of the shows with usually a somewhat simplistic message about you, like get involved. That's what he's saying right there. He's saying that anyone, anyone, you can try to self-select out of this thing. You could go, all right, I don't care about it. I'm not going to say anything about anything. I'm just going to raise my family and go to my job. And eventually they'll still come for you because you're just a guy who works. And instead of being part of the revolution, what are you, you just work? You just work and you just have a house and kids? You're not part of our revolution.

50:55You're going down too, right? I mean, there's that incredible, grab the quote from World War II, from the Holocaust, about first they came for the da-da-da, and then they came for the da-da-da. Grab that. Because they'll go for a certain set of people first, right? You can take out a health care CEO, and people will be like, wow, health care is screwy. But, you know, then they'll throw a Molotov cocktail at a tech leader's home. And then they'll, I don't know, assassinate a podcaster. Okay. and a couple other things and a couple other things as we have the urban decay and it will get much much worse and now i want to illustrate some of the other horrible horrible ideas of this guy and by the way the only reason i'm even playing these clips of him is because all of the democrats are attaching themselves to him and they refuse to say he's gone too far it's the jordan peterson thing so okay he basically just wink winked at murder i get it i get why they killed this guy well here he is saying that stealing is also okay right guys i'm pro stealing from big corporations because you know they they steal quite a bit more from their own workers but what about the argument that if everyone just starts stealing wantonly from these self-checkout machines hopeful whole foods will eventually raise the prices yeah they i chaos full chaos let's go I mean, look, I'm in favor.

52:18I'm in favor of fast and free buses and also government owned storefronts. And, you know, two of those policies, the mayor of this beautiful city is currently working on. Would you encourage stealing in the same way from a Mamdani run city owned grocery store with lower prices? And why? I would not, because I feel like that's taxpayer funded and the prices are union labor and the prices are also adjusted regardless. This is what evil is, guys. This is what evil is. And it's on our doorstep. No Democrat will step up against this guy because he's got a big audience. They don't know when they've gone too far and they are.

52:57They know that if they were to say anything about him, you know, saying that stealing from corporations or walking into Whole Foods and stealing is bad. they know he would turn the base on them. So by having no principles, they have now ushered in something very, very evil. You know, regardless of what your religious beliefs are, there is some old documents, there's some commandments, I think about 10 of them. One of them is not to steal, but what he believes in is in his own beliefs more than anything else. But no society can work. So what are you saying? So in anything that's private, because someone has put their sweat equity into it.

53:36You can steal. Go in and steal that guy's car. He works at a healthcare company. Why does he get that right for that car? I'm going to blow up his car and kill his wife. Why not? I'm a revolutionary. I'm a good guy. But I won't steal from the Mamdami supermarket, which ironically you... You got it? That was a couple adjectives I had there. Ironically, it won't even be built till 2029. is gonna cost three times more than anyone else would build a grocery store for. Interestingly, as long as we're talking about New York City for a moment, there's a slight deviation, but this is just great. Look at this from the New York Post.

54:16East villagers sue Mamdami to stop relocation of notorious Bellevue men's homeless shelter into their neighborhood. So he's moving a homeless shelter into the Lower East Side, into the East Village, and these people are upset because sometimes when you bring a whole bunch of crazy people into your backyard, they might do crazy things. This is what is known as NIMBY, not in my backyard. And it's a perfect way of explaining everything about the left. They want to say therefore things for their good guys and therefore all the good things. But if it's going to affect them in the least, then they're suddenly against it.

54:54Check this out from the Persian Jewess on X. Over 70 % of the East Village voted for Mamdami. Now they're suing Mamdami because he's planning to relocate a Bellevue homeless shelter into the East Village. I'm starting to think that progressive and communist Islamist ideas don't really work. And the people aren't really for it. But you've created a generation of brain broken morons. So they jump in and they vote for all this crap. And then the second you get into office, you suddenly say to them, I can't give you free buses. The grocery stores are going to take three extra years to build and it's going to be 3x the cost.

55:33Oh, and the mental institutions and the homeless places, I'm going to have to put them in your back. Oh, you don't like that either. Gosh, that's tough. Here's one more from this communist person. Poor people that they can afford housing in Berkeley? I don't know how that works. Well, my understanding is that. I'm pro-piracy all the way. Like across the board, would you pirate a car? Yes. You know, if you could. What would it mean to pirate a car? It was just a classic thing back in the day. The government-funded anti-piracy initiatives would be like, would you steal a car? Oh, I see. I'm like, yeah, sure.

56:12If I could get away with it, if it was as easy as, you know, pirating IP, I would do it. Would you steal a book from the library? Never. No. Would you steal from the Louvre? Yes. I would not be logistically capable of executing such a fact, but would I cheer on every news story of people that I see doing it? Absolutely. Absolutely. Yeah, I think it's cool. We got to get back to cool crimes like that. Like, you know, bank robberies, right? Stealing priceless artifacts. Things of that nature. right. Guys, I'm telling you, you might be watching that going, oh, they're being a little glib or whatever, but that's the New York Times podcast or whatever it is.

57:00You see what is wrong with the left. She'd be rooting on, yeah, you steal Picasso from the Louvre. Oh, good for you. It's not yours. It's not yours. Do you understand that? So they don't care. I mean, it's perfectly consistent with everything. They don't believe in property rights. They don't believe in individual I'd say, oh, steal cars. Steal cars just like you can steal IP. Why wouldn't you, is what he said. Why wouldn't you? I don't know, maybe because it's not yours. But we shouldn't be surprised. What would be the end result of a group of people who think that the highest thing that you can do in society is take from those people, because they have more, and give it to those people?

57:36Well, why wouldn't you take all of their cars? Who's the billionaire that just moved here, that has the huge yacht that you saw? Sergey Brin. Google, right? Sergey Brin moved here. Can we get the picture of the yacht again? We'll grab it for real quick. Sergey Brin just moved here from, he came from Cali, I assume, must've come from Cali. So he comes from Cali, trying to escape all the lunacy over there, which by the way, as the founder of, as the CEO of Google, he probably had a little something to do with the craziness. But he's worth gajillion dollars. Give me a number on him, he's gotta be worth, what?

58:06Something nutty here. He has a big yacht. I don't have a yacht, I don't have a boat. That's a pretty big yacht right there. I don't know how much that thing costs, but he has that. do I have any right to that thing? Connor, are you allowed to just commandeer that thing and take it to the Bahamas? You're not. And why wouldn't you do that? You wouldn't do that because you're a decent God-fearing fella. But these, he, he, Sergey Brinsworth,$255 billion. That's a hell of a lot of money. And he has also created a product that whether you like it or not is on all of our phones. And most of us use it for email and all the rest of it.

58:42But what these guys are saying is why wouldn't, in essence, what Hassan said there is why wouldn't you steal his yacht? Or you know what? Don't even bother stealing it. Why wouldn't you blow it up? And why wouldn't you break into his house? And why wouldn't you break into the Louvre or another museum or go to the Museum of Natural History and steal that big whale in New York City or anything else? Sergey Brin also created 187 ,000 high-paying jobs, but I know you don't care about that because some of those people are going to be bad guys too. This is deeply, deeply dangerous. And then now to connect it to more broadly what's happening across the left, look at this headline from the New York Times.

59:15It's an op-ed, but it's worth noting. The rich don't play by the rules, so why should I? Why petty theft might be the new political protest. And again, guys, this should not surprise you because what has been happening in New York City a couple years ago, I think it was de Blasio first, but then Eric Adams did it, and now Mamdami's doing it. If you jump the turnstile, you don't have to pay. So we used to have to pay to get on the subway. But now, if you have, you got decent legs still, you can just jump the turnstile and they're not gonna arrest you. So not only is that a crime in and of itself, you're spitting in the face of the people who do pay, who are now subsidizing you for that.

59:51And it creates, so you'll have this small set of people who are being taxed to the nth degree, who are trying to live lives that are in accordance with the law and everything else. And then you have this other group of people who will be like, well, I can steal, I can jump the turnstile. I don't know, you know, I just feel like I really love that, I always go to Lululemon on this. Give me a store that you kids like. Give me a brick and mortar store that you might buy. Toys R Us. I'm not sure they have any more brick and mortar stores. Can I get something else? Zoomies. What? Zoomies. Zoomies. And what is that?

1:00:23I don't know what that is. A skateboard. A skateboard. It's a skateboard shop. He's going to Toys R Us. You're going to Zoomies. What are you people doing? You're adults. All right. Anyway, so apparently there's a store called Zoomies. It's a skateboard store. Well, why wouldn't you just throw a rock in the window? I mean, he just said, I'm forced stealing from corporations. Throw a rock in the window and grab a new skateboard and be a real rad dude. How was that? I brought that together. That was pretty good. My friend Bridget Fadazi, who's a comedian and podcaster, she put this up and I think it illustrates the point.

1:00:51Nick Fuentes will never be invited to Yale. He will never be at Vanity Fair parties. He will never sit down and have casual conversations about killing and stealing with someone from the Times. He won't be defended by Ezra Klein. Hassan runs in most elite circles. Wake up. So the point is, to whatever extent there are problems on the right, the right has done a decent job, particularly over the last year, of pushing away the crazy people. Tucker is now just, he's mocked beyond belief. It's not to say he doesn't have any influence, but he's been pushed out of a lot of circles. Nick Fuentes, kid, he's a better example here because he's a kid basically the same age as Hassan.

1:01:29And it's like, he's not going to any respectable meetings and being brought in by politicians or anything else. And yet the left, and he's a lefty also because he told people to vote for Kamala instead of Trump. But the point is, Hassan, who is now, he was a full-on communist telling people to break the law and saying that America deserved 9-11 and going to China and saying he's not proud of America, he is now being invited by all the Democrat politicians and no one will say anything about him. And it seems to me that it would be pretty easy if you were a Democrat politician to be able to not associate with, say, this.

1:02:02Poor people that they can afford housing in Berkeley? I don't know how that works. Well, my understanding is that the property owners who have properties there choose just not to rent it at all. Yeah, kill them. Kill those motherfuckers and murder those motherfuckers in the street. Let the streets soak in their f***ing red capitalist bloods, dude. Keep going, Ro Khanna. Keep going, AOC. Keep going, Bernie Sanders. And see how attaching yourself to that guy works. Now, I will acknowledge it might work. We might have a bunch of broken brain people so that it might work. And he might run for president one day because we didn't stop any of this.

1:02:39However, I'm not stopping it by violence. I'm not saying break into his house and throw a Molotov cocktail at it or murder him, even though he has a whole bunch of bad ideas. The idea, basically what he's saying is there are people who have bad ideas that I don't like. I can understand why they get killed. I think there's a ton of bad ideas this guy has, but you cannot kill him because then we quite literally will not have a functioning society. That's the difference between me and him.

1:04:18Prolonlife.com slash Dave. All right. RubenReport.Locals.com community Q &A. Brian says, Dave, where do you see this whole fraud thing heading? We're getting it one drip at a time, and it seems like the death of a thousand paper cuts. Well, I think we'll get some resolution on some of it. That's probably the best we can hope for, right? We're going to get some organizations that are closed down. I think you could even connect this to the SPLC federal indictment yesterday. Like government is starting to catch the bad guys a little bit more. Trump got off to a nice start at the beginning of the term with the Doge stuff.

1:04:59I think it will be much harder for these people to launder money through Minnesota. Like are you going to really catch people and you'd probably have to jail the attorney general of Minnesota. Will Ilhan Omar really be caught up in it? I do think she's going down one way or another. right? Like between the marrying of the brother, now being caught up in this stuff, her own personal tax returns where she misestimated by about$30 million. Like I think she's going down one way or another. Only, you know, you can only do so many things at once. And we just have to hope that, you know, when Dr. Oz or Nick Shirley shows up and exposes, boy, there's 40 hospices in this little strip mall here and there are actually no patients.

1:05:42Or what was the video we showed you last week of the old age home. It was Nick Shirley again, right? He goes into the old age home. I think it was, again, it was, was that LA or Minnesota? I don't remember. And there's nobody there. There's just tables there. There's nobody there, but it's getting federal money. And there's a woman here like, oh, there's no, we don't even have a document to show you. Like something has to happen with some of this stuff. But I would say you have to understand at the state level in blue states, it's, they're all designed for this thing. So to like, I don't think Cali will get much better.

1:06:14Sure, maybe you shave off 10 % of it. Minnesota, maybe you shave off 10%. What will happen is, and this is just almost the case with virtually every issue, the functioning red states, and I put Florida at the top of that, will continue to get better because we are doing all of the right things with mature, responsible leadership, and the blue states will keep going their separate ways. And again, at some point, and it's sad to say as the backdrop of our 250th anniversary, what actually puts the United in the United States of America. And I'm not sure what the answer is to that. Elizabeth says, if you could be present for one major historical event, which would you pick and why?

1:06:49Oh, man. I mean, it's probably Moses parting the Red Sea. Like, if that literally happened, which the older I get, the more I'm starting to think some of this stuff was literal. Like, you know, you get all the Hebrews, they left. They're wandering from Egypt. they're heading to Israel, they're stuck, Pharaoh's on the way with the horse, and all the bad guys, and they get to the river, and Moses is like, God, you gotta throw me a bone right now, lifts his staff, boom, the river splits. Like, whatever the message about that, the message about that that you get over time, it's why the story is told time and time again, is that you gotta have faith, right?

1:07:33Like, you gotta have faith in God, and things will find a way. whether it happened literally or not, maybe it's something else, but to the extent that we can call it a historical event, that would be something. If I give you something just like a little more fully, like factually based that we know absolutely happened, maybe listening to the Gettysburg Address, Abraham Lincoln, that might be it. Glenn says, since you left the left, what issues have you changed the most on and what issues have you stayed the same on? My biggest change was on me hating the rich until Rush Limbaugh set me straight when I was 31.

1:08:10You know, it's probably something similar. I always tell people most of my principles haven't changed over the years. And I keep saying, you know, defending my liberal values is becoming a conservative position. But I would say the most that I've changed actually is I've become way more libertarian on economics, right? So this is why I'm always talking about big government. It's always why I'm talking about the Democrats who just want more. or why these social programs are bad and everything else. You know, you can find a video of it. I don't recommend you look for it and people keep posting, the people that hate me constantly post it.

1:08:42But in 2015, I was a Bernie supporter. And there's a video of me talking about how I support almost everything Bernie was for. And I look back on it and I was like, man, was I on drugs? I might've been on drugs actually, but you know what I mean? Like, I'm kidding. But you get the point. Like I look back on it, like how immature was I in thinking? And I think that that's what most of what the left is doing right now. They're taking very immature ideas that you should grow out of once you understand what the human condition is. And they're putting them on steroids. And now it's algorithmically charged as well.

1:09:12So the idea that, okay, would we all like a perfect society, whatever that means? Well, everyone wants it, but the road to hell is paved with good intentions. So I would prefer a society where you're going to keep as much as you can of what's yours, that has individual rights and limited government, and that's it. and we can then have to work on the margins of those things. And that's always why I considered myself a classical liberal and not a pure libertarian. Libertarians seem to want no guardrails on any of these things on top of the foreign policy stuff that I always make a point of saying, you know, if you're an isolationist, it's sort of just seventh grade.

1:09:45I don't want war. All right, well, that's not how you're not gonna get war, actually. So yeah, I would say economics is the big one. That also, by the way, has a lot to do with that interview that I did with Thomas Sowell and a couple others that I did over the years. Chipster says, have you been on a cruise? You're so close to various cruise lines and destinations. Yeah, so many of the big cruise ships, Royal Caribbean and Carnival and some of the more high-end ones, everything goes out of the Miami port here and also up in Fort Lauderdale. I've been on a couple of cruises back in the day. I used to do stand-up on cruises many, many, many lifetimes ago and would bounce around usually the Caribbean islands, you know, like five-day cruises.

1:10:17And, you know, if you're working the cruise, it's pretty sweet because obviously you're making some money. You're not paying. Like it's, you know, you can just kind of like hang out during the day. At this point, I don't really have any desire for a cruise. I'm not, I'm not against it altogether. And a couple of companies have reached out to us about doing like a Rubin Report cruise kind of thing. I just, when I go on vacation now, I just like quiet. Like the idea of going to the big ass buffet and fighting with people over the last chicken wing. And, you know, then I remember we were on a cruise once and there was just this huge fat woman.

1:10:52She must've been 500 pounds and she had been sitting out in the sun all day basically wearing a bikini and just like the fat everywhere red like a cherry and she was eating chicken wings while the water the waterfall was spraying on her and I thought this this something doesn't seem right about this um yeah I just I just want more quiet so I like I like sitting on a beach got a lounger I don't need often I don't need to read I definitely don't want my phone I I don't need screaming in the background. I just like quiet. So it's, it's not totally my thing anymore, but, but I know people love them.

1:11:27Plenty of people, plenty of my friends and family absolutely love them. Uh, Lo Brian says, are you going to do anything special with Copal for our 250th anniversary and your 50th birthday? Maybe a special sticker sticker for the bottle or an insert of some sort commemorating both events with your signature. You know, that's a great idea. I have not thought about that. We got a couple of interesting things happening right now with Copal. Actually just yesterday, As of yesterday, if you're in the Miami area, we are at Oliver's Bistro in Miami Beach. So you can get some copal there. You can also go down to Old Cutler Inn in Miami, a couple other places.

1:11:59We're moving it through the system, focusing on Florida first. But I do love that idea of doing something for the 250th of America, maybe a sticker. Or let me think about that a little bit. We got to move fast here because I got actual friends and some other stuff today. Eurasian says, could what the SPLC did be like ICE paying illegal alien gang members to rape and kill Americans so that they could resume large scale raids with impunity? I am telling you guys, this SPLC thing, it puts together so many pieces. We had a puzzle that was just messed up over the last couple of years. And why was the SPLC always going after me and Jordan and all these people and Charlie and everybody?

1:12:40And it was one thing if they were just lying about us, you know, because they didn't like us. We weren't lefty nutbags. But the fact that they were funding, that they funded the Unite the Right rally to over$270 ,000. And that is the thing that caused Joe Biden to run for president. There is something crazy afoot. I really hope this one sticks. I'm always talking about stickiness, right? Like these things happen and a lot of them don't stick. Oh, there's a little stickiness here. Robert says, Dave, always appreciate your perspective. Having just read Tucker's regret over voting and endorsing Trump with his brother, apparently siding with him, what base do you think is actually moved by this and what influence could he potentially have other than fodder for the left?

1:13:26Look, I don't really feel like doing the Tucker thing in totality right now. I don't know what has happened to him. People say it's foreign money. He's down some evil, like anti-Semitic rabbit hole. He's been compromised. I don't know what it is. You know, it's all the nicotine that he's chewing every day. I don't know what's going on with him. But what I would say is it's fairly obvious that the guy gets views. You can't deny that he gets views. Many of the views that he gets are because people are watching or hate watching him at this point, right? Or just like, oh my God, what crazy thing did he say now?

1:14:01I don't think he represents a big piece of the electorate, right, we know that MAGA is with Trump right now. But putting aside everything else, if you were Tucker right now, or you're anybody, you're anybody that thinks America's decent, we got midterms coming up. So let's say you're really, really against the Iran war. Like you just think it's the worst thing ever. If you were to look at the other things that Trump has done, closing the border, deportations, getting DEI and wokeness out of the institutions, Maha bringing Bobby Kennedy and everything in, what you could say is, Trump, I'm really disappointed.

1:14:35You could do shows every single day. Tucker could do shows every single day saying, Trump, I'm really disappointed in Iran, and I wanna nudge you on that, but we gotta win these midterms, because otherwise the communists are coming in, and that's what's happening. And he's not. Actually, every single day, he's now bringing on lefties that he has more common cause in because of the horseshoe theory of politics. So I think ultimately he's trying to destroy Trump, and he's trying to destroy MAGA. I think there's almost no other way, I don't think that's a subjective statement. I think that's clearly objective, actually.

1:15:07If you never do shows on why the SAVE Act should be passed, if you never do shows on the deportations, if you never do shows on the good economic deals we're landing, okay, you gotta be in your bonnet about Iran. It doesn't matter. It actually doesn't matter. That's one of 10 things, let's say, that's one of the top 10 things that Trump is doing. You may hate him for that, but congratulations, you're gonna usher in a group of people who are against everything else you purport to believe in? So you'd have to tell me what's going on there. Denver Dave says, Dave, I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on what in the world has happened to Italian Prime Minister, Georgia Maloney.

1:15:42I'm sure you agree, it's quite a stunning change. I don't know, and we've been talking to the guys about, we're thinking about maybe doing a fall trip where we'll do some of Western Europe, but I would love to go back to Italy. I haven't been there since 1997. I don't know what has happened to her. It seemed like she was gonna be like the Trumpian kind of all-star, and she was gonna really deal with deportations and the crime and the jihad and everything else. And she just has not done it. I don't know. We will, you know, we should get, we'll do something a little bit more on that. You know, we focus usually on that side of the pond.

1:16:15We're usually doing UK stuff, a little bit about France or whatever. We should do a little bit more about Italy. Yeah, because I, what, what in the world happened there? I don't know. Guys, we can't do a post-game show today because we ran a little long and I gotta get to actual friends. But I thank you for watching. We'll do it again tomorrow. Why not? Thank you.
