Watch the Exact Moment Donald Trump Knew He Pulled Off Impossible Israel-Hamas Peace Deal

25:12And, well, they're still chanting, kill all of the Jews.

25:37Yahud, Jew, kill all the Jews. Now, if you look at all those guys and you can rewind it later or whatever, like they're all young, they're all healthy. Nobody looks starving. They all look like they had braces. Like everybody looks pretty good. Like the whole claim of genocide was crazy. But this is why I think you have to be sort of a world-weary optimist when it comes to this. Can you make peace with, will it be really peace with those guys who are still screaming, kill all the Jews two years post-October 7th, post the destruction of Gaza and all of those things? Like, can you really make peace with them?

26:09Probably not. Could some power structure come to exist that can kind of control it a little bit, maybe over time, teach them something about coexistence? Maybe, maybe. So we have to, that's where the positivity comes in. Like that's where the human spirit and showing people what freedom is all about possibly could do some healing, possibly. But we shouldn't, but we have to acknowledge that that really still exists. There's not going to be any protests in Israel today where they're going, kill all the Gazans, kill all the Gazans. There just won't be. But the other thing from a Western perspective is now is the time.

26:44The war is wrapping up. Hostages will be out. The purported genocide will be over. Now is the time for us here in the West to say no more. No more to these crazy, psychotic jihad rallies that we are having where they are calling for genocide, where they are taking over streets, where they vandalize things, they burn things, they attack police officers and everything else. And where they actually tell you that they are part of Hamas, which is literally what happened two days ago in New York City on the actual second anniversary of October 7th. We did not act enough. We did not act enough. Repeat after me.

27:24We did not act enough. If we acted enough. the headline behind me would read. Gaza has been liberated. So our work is not done. We must show up, stronger than we did the 1st October 7th. Louder than we did the 1st October 7th. So louder than we did on the 1st October 7th, that's a guy saying he is part of Hamas. By the way, it turns out he was found out because the internet figures out who people are pretty quickly. Shocking, he didn't wear the terrorist mask. He's a student at Harvard. Surprise, surprise. Can you believe it? Of course. And I've heard from some insiders that the FBI is looking into him right now.

28:17But just enough of that. No more tolerating this bullshit. What he was doing there was calling for genocide. What he was doing there was, and with the drones, the clones that are just repeating what he says. I mean, it's all so brain numbing and everything else, but everyone should step back right now. Like, I'll try to give you a little advice, Rashida, to leave AOC, Bernie, you pathetic sellout who would have been killed if you had stepped into Gaza, but you have spent a career trying to sell out Israel. It's like, all of you, just take a moment right now. Is it so hard to just send out a tweet?

28:51Like, you don't have to say anything nice about Israel. I think it's nice that this war is coming to a close. hopefully things can be rebuilt, but you can't do that. And what that shows you actually is that most of these people didn't want peace and they never really cared about the Gazans. What they wanted was the destruction of Israel and they're just not going to get it. So for everyone else, and I think it is probably 80 % of Americans, if not even more, those of us who want coexistence, who understand things can be a little tricky and da-da-da-da-doo, it's like we just have to expose these people right now.

29:23But if in a week from now there's more of these rallies out there, Everyone, everyone must be speaking out against it. Of course, the problem, and this now will get us to our next segment, the problem is that there are no good leaders on the left anymore. Like, congratulations to John Fetterman for congratulating Donald Trump and good luck in your own party. But the Democrat Party has been so rotted out from the inside that they're basically are only crazy people. So this will get us to the next story I wanted to cover, which is that there is a former California congresswoman by the name of Katie Porter.

29:58And she is running for governor in California. That's right. Gavin Newsom will not be perpetual governor of California forever. And she's a far left progressive and all the usual stuff. And there were two things that happened to her over the last couple of days that went mega viral. And it just shows you the sort of emotional maturity of these people. And they're sort of what I always say with the progressives. It's the fake niceness, the fake tolerance, the thin veneer. And underneath is something very nasty. So here's Katie Porter being asked by a CBS reporter a couple of basic questions and watch what happens.

30:33What do you say to the 40 percent of California voters who you'll need in order to win who voted for Trump? How would I need them in order to win, ma 'am? Well, unless you think you're going to get 60 percent of the vote, you think you'll get 60 Everybody who did not vote for Trump will vote for you. That's what you're saying? In a general election, yes. If it is me versus a Republican, I think that I will win the people who did not vote for Trump. What if it's you versus another Democrat? I don't intend that to be the case. So how do you not intend that to be the case? Are you going to ask them not to run?

31:06No, no. I'm saying I'm going to build the support. I have the support already in terms of name recognition. We've also asked the other candidates, do you think you need any of those 40 % of California voters to win? and you're saying no you don't no i'm saying i'm going to try to win every vote i can and what i'm saying to you is that well to those voters okay so so you i don't want to keep doing this i'm going to call it thank you you're not going to do the interview with us nope not like this i'm not not with seven follow-ups to every single question you ask every other candidate has i don't care i don't care i i want to have a pleasant positive conversation which you ask me about every issue on this list.

31:44And if every question, you're going to make up a follow-up question, then we're never going to get there. And we're just going to circle around. I am an investigative reporter. I have never had to do this before, ever. You've never had to have a conversation with a reporter? To end an interview. Okay, but every other candidate has done this. What part of, I'm me, I'm running for governor because I'm a leader. So I am going to make... So you're not going to answer questions? It's kind of funny. Like they're going to, Gavin Newsom's going to step away and they could end up with someone like that.

32:15But again, it just gets to what's going on with the left. They are emotionally immature. They don't know what they think. The question was so simple. The question was so simple. It was basically, will you reach out to Trump people? They live in your state. There's a huge amount of Trump supporters there because Cali is so huge. There are millions and millions of them. Like, can you, can you offer anything? And the dismissiveness, and then to say, I'm not going to sit there. I'm ending this thing. I don't have to take follow-up questions. I'm running to be the leader. It's like, this is what you guys have left.

32:47But then this is the one that was really going viral of this lady. She's on a call, a Zoom call. And then one of her staffers dared to go into the kitchen behind her. Take a look. A million Californians dying prematurely to air pollution and other problems. And the state could lose, get out of my shot. I wanted to tell you that that's actually incorrect. It's not that it's electric vehicles. It's that if we don't need the commitments, I need to prepare us climate for it. Okay. You also were in my shot before that. Stay out of my shot. Okay. I'm going to start again with electric vehicles saving us money.

33:28Perfect. Does that seem like the type of person that you would want being the chief executive of the biggest state in the country? Like what, first off, the fact that the girl's wearing masks there. And all she did was come in to explain to Katie Porter that she was getting something wrong. Get the fuck out of my shot. Like, yes, is it true that at the end of the day, I hit one of my employees and it's, but it's on a complete rotation and it's, and it's completely, you know, I just spin a wheel. So it's not like, like I'm not going to hit the chances that I would hit one person four days in a row.

34:01That did happen once. It's like pretty much not going to happen. Yes, you have to keep these people online, of course, but it's just you guys get it. Here's what we got to more. I mean, this woman is just how is this happening to California? Here she is saying that her 12 year old is worried that she can't get an abortion. So on election night, I was with I went to pick up my daughter from water polo practice and she's 12. And she got in the car and she was crying. And I said, did someone punch you? Like water polo is a rough sport. I was like, did someone hit you? Did the coach yell at you? What happened?

34:33and she said, Mom, Trump won. Trump's going to win. And what if I get raped and I need to have an abortion? This is from a 12-year-old, my 12-year-old daughter. And so it was really a reminder of how scary this time is for people and how important it is for Democrats to have strategies, both at the state level and the federal level, to make sure that we can continue to protect people's rights. The allegation of groomer and pedophile, It is alleging that a person is criminal somehow and engaged in criminal acts merely because of their identity, their sexual orientation, their gender identity. So I think the fact that we're seeing this jump in expenses, that we're seeing people having to pay more in the grocery store, pay more at the pump, pay more for housing, is a reason that people are saying, I need to be able to make my own decisions about when and if to start a family.

35:26like, oh God, I love how starting a family involves killing a baby for these people. Also, yes, your daughter got in the car and was crying that she got raped and she wouldn't be able to get an abortion. Like, it's just nonsense. And by the way, if you were concerned about your daughter being raped or whatever, you might want to be a little harder on crime and illegal immigration in California. She sort of looks like Mrs. Trunchbull from Matilda, doesn't she? That woman freaked me out. Somehow I saw that in the theater. What year did that come out? I think maybe I was a camp counselor or something.

36:00And it was a rainy day and we had to take the kids to the 96th. So I was 19. I was a summer camp counselor and it was a rainy day. We took the kids to see them. It's pretty good. It's still the test of time. All right, here's one more of Katie Porter. She was on Bill Maher a while back with Piers Morgan and she went after Riley Gaines because Riley, you know Riley. She's a girl and she was swimming and wanted to swim with girls. And then there was a guy with a wang who pretended he was a girl to use the penis as a propeller, beat her. And then she was a little annoyed about that. So she became outspoken when it came to guys with wangs beating girls in swimming.

36:37You should be able to have a civil debate. Nobody, including Riley Gaines, who I disagree with strongly, should be. What do you disagree with out of interest? I think that it should be up to sporting bodies to make the decisions about who and how she can compete. What has she said that's actually wrong? I think that what she has done is try to turn this... We talked about people, you know, using things to kind of get likes and get clicks. That's not what she's doing. It's not? I mean, I've got no truck for Riding Games personally, but all I've seen her do is stand up for women's rights to fairness and equality.

37:11She actually competed against Leah Thomas, and it was obviously unfair. Leah Thomas won one of the races in the NCAA Championships by 50 seconds against a bunch of Biological females who simply couldn't keep up that cannot be right. It cannot be fair

37:31Sporting bodies should be dealing with and by the way Riley is speaking up for herself And that is her prerogative and I respect her free speech. I think she's speaking up pretty much every female athlete in the world Why, Katie Porter, can you not just step up for women? You have a 12-year-old daughter who's afraid she's going to be raped and not be able to get an abortion. Do you want her to be beaten in swimming, too, after having lived through all of that? Anyway, that story all feels a little bit small relative to the backdrop of the Middle East. But the point, the really point connecting there, connecting those two things, is that there's going to be a certain set of people that with everything happening in the Middle East, all the goodness out of the Middle East, are not gonna stop.

38:15And that is because they put ideology over truth. And until we really reckon with that, a lot of the craziness is going to continue, whether it's, I'm being genocided and I'm also calling for genocide, or I want boys to swim with girls, or the rest of the nonsense. Let's talk about Brooklyn betting for a moment, and then more on the other side. You've gotta love a real American success story, and Brooklyn betting is exactly that. The company started with one man in Arizona, building mattresses by hand, and today they're making some of the best mattresses in the country. When you sleep on a Brooklyn Bedding mattress, you can feel the difference right away.

38:50It's supportive, cool, and unbelievably comfortable. No more waking up sore, tossing, and turning all night. Every mattress is handcrafted in the U.S. with premium materials, and you could even choose your ideal firmness level for a perfect fit. If you're ready to finally upgrade your sleep, visit brooklynbedding.com and use promo code Ruben for 30 % off site-wide. That's brooklynbedding.com. Promo code Ruben, because better sleep starts with a better mattress. Okay, so I want to do one other story before we get to the locals community Q &A. And it's an extension of what we just did there with Katie Porter, because this is someone who is a leader of the progressive movement, who wants to be governor of California and, you know, would, I guess you could say would either keep it as bad as it is or make it worse or whatever, but clearly doesn't have the emotional temperament to be in public office or anything else.

39:38and it shouldn't surprise us that this is what the political leadership of the Democrats is. Like, it's not surprising at all. When I asked Joseph this morning, could you just quickly check and see if AOC and Ilhan and Rashida and Bernie and all them had tweeted? Like, I knew they had it. But credit where credit is due, even though Ilhan's statement was insane, she did tweet something, so I read it. But we shouldn't be surprised that they don't know how to say, oh my God, something good is happening, right? They've been screaming genocide and they don't know how to say, oh, the genocide is coming to an end because then they'd have to credit Trump.

40:13They'd have to sort of acknowledge that actually they never believed there was a genocide. There's all the stuff. And where much of the confusion comes from is where young people are getting their news from these days. One of the places is Twitch, which is crazy. Twitch was designed basically to be a place where kids were coming to play video games together. And now people have become hugely famous and made major bank on being political there and all sorts of other stuff. So I've mentioned this guy, Hassan Piker, a couple of times on the show. He is the nephew of Cenk Uygur at the Young Turks.

40:44And I used to work with him. He's really just a terrible person. He's in a lot of hot water right now. Yes, he calls for the death of, I think he called for the assassination of Rick Scott. He called for blood in the streets of Republicans and all these things. And he breaks the terms of service on Twitch all the time. And he makes about 200 grand a month on there from what people say. But now he's in hot water because it's one thing to call for death of Republicans, but he's also been shocking his dog. He is using a shock collar on his dog on his live streams. And it's, you know, sure you call for death of Republicans, but shocking a dog's a bit much.

41:17Such a first world problem, but it is emblematic of all of America's much more consequential violence. Okay. It's the same reason as to why America, Kaya, please just stop.

41:37Jesus Christ, what are you doing? You're being such a baby. It's just. You're making her stressed. She just literally is so incredibly spoiled from my mom. All right, so you have a LARPing socialist. Specialist. He is pro-jihad. He's 100 % pro-Hamas. I used to play basketball with him. It's not surprising that he is shocking the dog there. He used to have a different dog. It was a pit bull. And he would come when we were playing basketball and he would tie the dog up on a tree with about two foot of rope to it. And the dog would go bananas and destroy the ground at the school that we were at. So everyone that's at Young Turks, you know I'm telling the truth because you know what school it was too.

42:25And he would destroy the ground. And in retrospect, I don't know why we didn't i think we must have i must have said something but like there's none of this surprises me um but here he is he was also confronted by a guest about the tightness of the dog's collar and now it's mainstream i love her i think her collar is too tight well it's uh you have to you have to be able to get two fingers and i couldn't even get one i think you're choking her she's like it's because she has a lot of neck meat just such a lib ass like oh dude please don't get a frenchy i just wrote a vox article talking about how problematic they are like i don't give a i know they have breathing problems i know they're incredibly inbred i don't give a i know i know i don't care like i don't give a this is a dog okay so look i I don't care about this guy.

43:18He's a terrible human being, but your children, if you are watching this, might be watching him. And you might want to think about that when you see these broken brains, because whether it's abusing her dog or being pro-Hamas or calling for the death of a Republican senator, like this guy is massive, massive on Twitch. But because I don't want to, before we get to the Q &A, I don't want to end with him. There are young people out there that are doing pretty freaking awesome things. And just as I said, we should all at the top of the show, we should be aiming towards peace right now. Like it doesn't mean you're going to get exactly that.

43:51What we should all be doing on our own lives is aim towards something good, aim towards building something great, whether that's a business or a family or a little bit of both or whatever it is that you want in your life. And then you can do amazing things. So this is just a great story. Listen to this from CoinDesk. Just in, Polymarket founder Shane Shane Copeland becomes the youngest self-made billionaire following a deal with the New York Stock Exchange's parent company. And here is a tweet from Shane Copeland himself, who you can see. He's just a young kid. You know, he's in his 20s somewhere.

44:22The past two years have been surreal, going from a write-off to creating a category, watching our vision become a reality. The Polymarket origin story is funny because it's a rare case of the dream being identical to how things played out. If I learned one thing, it's that bold ideas are everywhere, hidden in plain sight. It just takes someone crazy enough to spend their life willing it into existence. That's entrepreneurship, willing things into existence. At the onset of the pandemic, I quite literally had nothing to lose. 21, running out of money, two and a half years since I dropped out, nothing to show for it.

44:55But I knew we were entering an era where ways to find truth would matter more than ever, and Polymarket could play a critical role in that. After all, nothing is more valuable than the truth. It is still a work in progress, but we're honored to have made the impact we have thus far. Last but not least, I'm deeply grateful for all of the support and hard work of my brilliant team. I'm getting to live my wildest dreams, seemingly against all odds. I don't take it for granted. The best is yet to come. And then I thought this was just great. Look at this tweet. This is just fantastic. This is from, look at him, 2020, running out of money, solo founder, HQ in my makeshift bathroom office.

45:31Little did I know Polymarket was going to change the world. He's literally, that is his bathroom. That is where he was doing work from. absolutely broke. Aim at something and you might get it. When we moved to LA in 2013, we had about maybe 2 ,000 bucks combined. I had about$10 ,000 worth of debt. I think we were making, when I started at the Young Turks, I think I was making$40 ,000 a year. You can do things. You can build great production company, a great show. Then I saw a tech problem. I built locals. You can do it too. And that building something, going for something is so different than sitting there and abusing a dog and feeding all of the wrong ideas to young people while you become a millionaire.

46:17Just one more for you right now before the Q &A. Here's Pete Hegseth delivering, I would say, a spectacular message post-game locker room to Navy after their win over Air Force. You pounded through the game. When you needed a stop at the end, you got the big stop. When you needed a first down, you got the first down. That's going to be your life, not just in this game, but for the rest of your life when you're wearing a different kind of uniform. There's going to be shitty days. There's going to be tough days. There's going to be frustrations. You're going to have bad leaders. You're going to have good leaders.

46:47Clear missions and missions with no clarity at all. And what you do in those moments is what's going to be the difference between life and death for the men, for the Americans, for the sailors, for the SEALs, for the Marines that you lead in the future. You are their compass. They will look to you just like you look to your quarterback or your linebackers or your own line to say, hey, I'm on you. I'm on your your back. We're going north. You did that today. I love the Air Force. They don't have it on you today.

47:25That's right. And look at the way all of those young people were looking at him and listening. And there's just no doubt that almost all of them will go on to do great things, whether it's in business or with their families or those other things, because there's a certain reality to the world. And if you stop being bitter and angry and narcissistic and navel gazing, you can do great things too. And that also is a perfect illustration of what I've been saying about Pete from day one. It wasn't just that he was qualified. It was that he could communicate it and look the part. And that's why they hate him so much.

47:56All right, let's talk about balance in nature. and then we'll get to a rubinreport.locals.com community Q &A.

All right, community Q &A, here we go. Collarow says, what is stopping President Trump and the Republicans from declaring the Democrat leadership specifically as sponsors of terror at this point? Do you think they ought to. I don't. I don't. Look, is it true for sure that the Democrats coordinate with the NGOs and these other nonprofit groups to get the little LARPing jihadists out on the street?

49:06And did they do it during BLM? And do they work somehow with Antifa? And how do they all have the same placards? And why is it that every time they do a rally, it's thousands? You never see a small rally of like 12 people because it isn't spontaneous. It is coordinated. And there There absolutely is something there and it should be looked at. Do we want a situation where the party in power looks at the other party? And even if they're up to a lot of nefarious stuff and if they have all sorts of bad intentions, and as I said, why is it that Bernie and AOC and Schumer and everybody else, why haven't they tweeted today?

49:39Because they'd have to give Trump credit? Or is it because they actually never thought there was a genocide and that's going to kind of be exposed or what their real goal was to destroy Israel and that's not going to happen? Like, yeah, are they rotten to the core across the board? Yeah, yeah. But should we start jailing political opponents? Look, they're going after Comey and some other things, people who seemingly did very specific things like lying under oath and fabricating the Steele dossier, which led to Trump and Russia, Russia. Like, there are specific ones. But to just say, oh, this party or the leadership or whatever, that's probably a bridge too far.

50:14And again, you just always have to be leery of when you start doing some of these things, because of course one day you will not be empowered and you don't want those things done to you. Elizabeth says, did Justin and Luke have fun birthdays? Happy birthday to them from Izzy and me. They had great birthdays. It was Luke's birthday this weekend and we went down in Homestead down here in Florida. Homestead is our Southern Florida. That's our farmland down here in Southern Florida. You can go shooting down there. They've got farms and animals and a monkey jungle and all this stuff. We went down to this place, Berry Farm, which is just fantastic.

50:45They've got cows and animals. I mean, it's a fully functioning farm, but they've got great barbecue and food. And the kids, we went into the corn field and we got corn and then we were able to feed the cows and we were driving on the tractor and they've got all sorts of jungle gyms and you could jump in a thing of corn, just like the corn kernels and jump around in that and all kinds of fun stuff. So yeah, we had a great day. We all ate way too much ice cream, I would say, particularly me. Tony says, Democrats in California only registered 190 new voters in eight months while Republicans registered 48 ,000.

51:17I know we both fled Cali for Florida, but those numbers are shocking in a good way. Any thoughts? Yeah, I mean, 40 ,000, unfortunately, in California is just like the tiniest drop in the bucket. I would say Cali is sort of the way I feel about New York at this point. I just don't see much hope. There are good people in both places. There will be pockets that are a little bit better in all of those things. But Cali particularly, it has just gone so the wrong way for so long. You know, we cut a segment. We were actually gonna do an extra segment on the show today about some of the fallout from the California fires.

51:54Maybe we'll get to it last week, but even the reconstruction there, it's going so poorly. They're so over-regulated. If you're more interested in that, Adam Carolla is doing a ton on it because I think he lost his Malibu house. Yeah, so 40 ,000 people. The Democrats only got a couple. I don't see much changing, unfortunately. Noble Gold, and then a couple more questions. Gold has officially gone mainstream. You're seeing it everywhere, and prices just keep climbing.

Nimbus says, do you plan on shaving the beard after Pete Hegseth's announcement? So I don't know that the announcement said specifically that they can't have beards, right? But there's a certain conduct code. This is like George Steinbrenner and the Yankees fighting with Don Mattingly over the sideburns in 1992 or something. I don't know that you're not allowed to have beards at all. We can confirm that. But no, the beard, as I keep saying, I'm more beard than man at this point.

53:36it has taken over it's like it's like uh what's his name venom and the guy the symbiote it's on me yeah i don't i i just look better with the beard i'm yeah god i was fat why didn't people tell me i mean that's that's about 2000 that was right when we moved into the new studios that's 2016 so that's nine years ago yeah carnivore diet and a beard man that's what you got to do and a little sundown. Why was I so pale? What kind of lighting were we using? That was before you. I don't blame you. Laura Manchuk says, how are the queers for Palestine going to cope with orange Hitler giving them what they want?

54:13They can't celebrate this without giving Trump praise. And I think that will break their brains more than it is now. Well, that's part of the genius of Trump. So many people take positions on things just because they hate Trump that then when he does good, they don't know what to do. And then that's why they're so hysterical in essence. But I would say, look, if, I mean, this will be the great test, right? Like they're not gonna give him credit, obviously, and it's why AOC can't tweet about this or any of those things. But, you know, let's give it six months. Israel will have withdrawn further.

54:45There'll be some reconstruction, hostages out. Things will be calm. There won't be rockets going in and out and all that stuff. And then why don't we, here, I'm willing to do it. I will throw in$20 ,000, let's say, to get a bunch of the queer, and you gotta have real nails, and you gotta have the crazy hair, all the stuff, but the queers for Palestine. Let's send them over there and see, with the new leadership that's gonna be less extreme, let's see how the average person in Gaza treats you. And we all know the answer to that, so yeah. Sally says, if you could be governor of Florida for one day, what would you do?

55:22Ooh, that's a good one. Well, look, the main, ah, scary, scary. The main thing that our current governor is working on before he wraps up his second term, obviously DeSantis, is that he's trying to get rid of property taxes for people that have a homestead. I mentioned the town of Homestead in Florida earlier, but a homestead, we have something called homesteading here in Florida, which is your personal home gets certain tax benefits. And if you were ever in a lawsuit and they were coming for your assets, they can't come for your home. There's certain protections around that. But what he wants to do is make sure that if you have a homestead in Florida, your primary residence, that you will not pay property taxes.

56:01Because as the market has gone up so much here because of the success of Florida, property taxes have increased because property values have increased. And then that pushes certain people out. OG Floridians who've been here for a long time, all the properties around them are going up. So their property taxes are going up. It's actually, it's not fair. And even putting that aside, you know, if you buy a house outright, why are you paying taxes on that house every year? There are all sorts of, we all pay sales tax. We don't have state income tax here, but there are all sorts of other taxes that you're paying.

56:31And because we have such good tourism here, we don't overspend here and all of these things. He's worked it out. I mean, he's pushing this through the legislature that maybe we'd increase a little bit of sales tax for all the people that enjoy all the beauty and wonder and success and safety of Florida that come on vacation here. Maybe they'll pay a little bit more to be part of this wonderful place. and the actual Floridians will pay a little bit less. So I would be all for doing that if DeSantis isn't able to get it through. But I think he would. You know what, beyond that, maybe this will sound cliche, but if I ever, and I have been asked if I ever was to run for governor of Florida or anything else.

57:11I mean, I think what I would do is I would just have DeSantis on speed dial. And every time there was a real problem, I would say, hey, Gov, can you give me a little advice here? Like, what do we do? How do I follow in your footsteps? I mean, I just don't know a public leader across the board who has been more of a man of his word, who has accomplished more, who has righted a ship that could have gone the other way. Let's not forget that when DeSantis came in the first time, not only did he only win by, I think, like a point and a half, the guy, the Democrat that he almost lost to turned out to be a meth addict.

57:48Like, that's how close Florida was to the precipice after everything that was going on with COVID and everything else. So, so pretty nuts. Uh, you know, I thought an interesting way to end the show today would be in light of what's happened here, uh, with the, let's say dawn of Middle East peace, or at least let's say less killing. Um, tomorrow is the one year anniversary of the death, the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Uh, and this video was going around that it's really to honor Charlie. And the point more than anything else is be your best self, be brave. That's what we all could do right now.

58:27I really believe it, guys. There is a unique opportunity right this moment that all of us, even for the fighting on the right, like we could put it aside right now and be like, Trump's pretty good. America's pretty good. The Middle East thing's going to wrap up. Let's stop with all the bickering and all of those things. And that's so much of what charlie represented so we will end with charlie post game show right after rubin report.locals.com
