First up today, we talk with President Donald

1:49

J. Trump. I asked him about pardons for the people

1:51

in the DC Gulag vaccine

1:54

and President Trump lays out the record that

1:56

could win them the election in 2024. You're

1:58

not going to want to miss this interview. Check it out. Yeah.

2:01

Always happy to welcome back to the

2:04

show President Donald

2:06

J. Trump. Always an honor to have

2:08

him. Mr. President, thank you so much for taking

2:10

the time. We really appreciate it. Well,

2:13

thank you, Dan, very much. Thank you.

2:15

Yeah. Mr. President, first question

2:17

for you today. The 14th

2:20

Amendment, it is this ridiculous

2:22

theory out there that they can somehow keep you off

2:25

the ballot for participating in

2:27

an insurrection, which is fascinating because

2:29

if you're an insurrectionist, you're a pretty crappy

2:32

one telling them to go march peacefully and patriotically.

2:34

You really shouldn't say that if you want to do an insurrection. Just

2:37

a pro tip for you. So you're not really good at this

2:39

insurrection thing. So they want to keep

2:41

you off the ballot with the 14th Amendment.

2:45

Your thoughts on that?

2:47

Well, these are very dishonest people.

2:49

It's a group named Crew. They've been fighting

2:51

me for eight years. They're losers. A group

2:53

of losers, you can check them out individually.

2:56

Every one of them, all they do is lose. They're told they know

2:58

how to do. And they've been after me eight years

3:01

and I've been beating them for eight years. But

3:03

they don't stop. I mean, the one thing I give them credit,

3:06

they don't stop. And I'm leading Biden

3:08

by a lot. I'm leading to sanctimonious by

3:10

like 50 points, maybe more. I see

3:12

even CNN is saying today that

3:14

we're leading Biden by a lot and we're killing

3:17

to sanctimonious. You know, he wouldn't have gotten

3:19

he wouldn't be governor if it wasn't for me. And then he

3:21

says, well, I'd like to run. And I'd

3:24

like to run.

3:25

And I said, oh, he wants to run. Let's see how he does.

3:27

He hasn't done well. He's a failed candidate.

3:29

But you know, they don't want me to run. And the

3:32

the they like to say, oh, we really want to

3:34

run against Trump. But actually, it's just the opposite.

3:36

You know, Dan, better than anybody, I think, because

3:39

I listen to you, you know better than him. They

3:42

are a party of disinformation. So they

3:44

say we want to run against. Well, if

3:46

they want to run against me, they wouldn't be doing

3:48

for indictments plus local indictments

3:51

plus AGs and district attorneys

3:53

and individual cases, harassment

3:55

cases. It's

3:58

probably about eight different lawsuits. and

4:00

they are very dishonest, and this is

4:02

their way of cheating in the election. Like, they

4:05

cheated last time, beyond anything anyone's

4:07

ever seen. We did phenomenal. I did much better

4:09

the second time than I did the first, like

4:12

by millions and millions of votes.

4:14

But they cheated there, and this is their

4:16

new form. This is like a banana republic,

4:18

and what they're doing is, it's called

4:21

election interference, and all these lawsuits

4:23

get in the way. Now the 14th Amendment

4:25

is just a continuation

4:27

of that. It's nonsense. Nobody's

4:30

even said there's insurrection. And by

4:32

the way, there wasn't any guns in the Capitol. The

4:34

insurrection is, frankly, the people

4:37

that insurrection on the election, and

4:39

rigged the election. Those are the insurrectionists

4:41

there.

4:43

Yeah, listen, I agree with

4:45

you, and we are living in a police state right now.

4:47

I've said it many times. I feel like

4:49

you are obviously being treated different. That's

4:51

a very hallmark of a police state based on your political

4:54

beliefs. People don't have to like you, but you're still a citizen

4:56

of the United States, but you're not being treated as such.

4:59

But Mr. President, you're not the only one. Enrique

5:02

Terrio and the Proud Boys and other

5:04

people who were involved on January 6th, listen,

5:07

I don't know them personally, never met them. I'm

5:09

not really familiar with the details, the intricate

5:12

details of the case, but I know this. One

5:14

of them was sentenced to 22 years in jail, one

5:16

to 17 years in jail, and one for 18 years

5:19

in jail, for what appears

5:21

to be far less than what BLM,

5:24

Antifa, and others did, including one

5:26

individual who set fire

5:28

to a pawn shop to earn a BLM rally and

5:30

actually killed a father of five who was sleeping

5:33

inside, who got Mr. President a

5:35

10-year sentence, 12 years less

5:38

than Enrique Terrio. The justice

5:40

system is lost. Do you anticipate

5:42

if you win the next election to use

5:44

the pardon power to correct this overreach

5:47

of injustice?

5:49

So as you know, I'm a fair person,

5:51

and I just want fairness. I saw

5:54

that over the last few days, and like

5:56

you, I never met any of them, I don't know them, I

5:58

don't know what they represent. But

6:00

I do know that they don't like seeing crime

6:02

and they don't like seeing people

6:04

slugged behind the back and shot

6:07

through the head. But I don't know what

6:09

they represent. But I'll tell you what, I

6:11

looked at this and there was nobody

6:13

killed other than Ashley

6:16

Babbitt. Okay, Ashley Babbitt, we

6:18

should be, we have to, we're going

6:20

to be looking at that whole situation because

6:23

that was horrible. But they

6:25

went in, there were no guns, there

6:27

were no anything. 22 years, I saw yesterday, 22

6:30

years, another one got 18 years, another

6:32

one got 17 years. And yet when they

6:34

burned down Portland

6:36

and they killed people,

6:37

they got practically nothing by comparison.

6:40

In fact, in many cases, they got nothing. When

6:42

they went into Minnesota, when they went

6:44

into Minneapolis and they burned down the entire

6:46

city and took over the police force and took over

6:48

the whole building and then set that on

6:51

fire, they got almost nothing.

6:53

So we have two sets of justice. I think whoever

6:56

these people are, I looked at this, I was watching

6:58

this and I couldn't believe it. And let me tell you, it's

7:01

every time I do, whether it's an interview

7:03

or I talk to somebody, this just like

7:05

you're doing, this is the first subject they

7:07

bring in. They think it's really horrible

7:10

and really unfair.

7:12

Yeah. Well, it is unfair. I mean, it's right.

7:14

It's slapping everyone in the face right now. Mr.

7:17

President, if you win the next election, I

7:20

know you didn't hesitate in the past to get rid

7:22

of Comey and some others, but there's other

7:24

people who say, well, there were some bad personnel

7:27

choices too, a fair enough criticism. They

7:29

say, well, is Donald Trump is the next

7:31

president? Is he going to come in and get

7:33

done what needs to be done? Get rid

7:35

of the upper levels of the DOJ, get

7:37

rid of the upper levels of the FBI, people who

7:39

have not sworn an oath to the Constitution,

7:42

personnel or policy, Mr. President, if we don't

7:44

get rid of these personnel, nothing's going to change.

7:47

You're right. So when

7:49

I came to Washington, I was in Washington 17

7:51

times in D.C., 17 times my

7:54

entire life, according to the press. I

7:56

don't know. That's what they say. But it wasn't very much more

7:58

than that. Never stayed over. I wasn't

8:00

a member of the Washington Society. It

8:03

wasn't my thing. I wasn't a bushy, that's for sure,

8:05

I don't want to be. And I came

8:07

in, and

8:08

all of a sudden, I'm president of the United

8:10

States, and I had to rely on people to

8:12

give me great recommendations. And in many cases,

8:14

I did. I mean, we had Kudlow,

8:16

we had so many great people,

8:18

but we don't talk about them. We also had bad people.

8:21

Now remember, I came in, and Comey

8:23

had a long-term job.

8:24

He was put there before me, and

8:27

I got rid of him very early, within a few

8:29

months, which was, you know, frankly, not

8:31

the easiest thing to do. And that was like

8:33

a hornet's nest. That was like, that exploded

8:36

everything, because that blew up

8:38

their schemes. It was a terrible thing that

8:40

they were doing. If you look at the

8:42

IG report, Horowitz, who's done some

8:45

incredible work, by the way, and he's a Democrat,

8:47

I guess, but

8:48

he did some incredible work. You look at that report,

8:51

but I fired Comey, I fired a lot of other

8:53

people. I fired a lot of people in the intelligence,

8:55

so-called intelligence, I quote it. We

8:58

got rid of a lot, but there's a lot to get rid of. But

9:01

we got hit with the Russia, Russia, Russia hook, so

9:03

I had a fight on that. We got hit with all

9:05

of the different things, and at the end, we were doing a

9:07

lot of work on that, on the deep state, and

9:09

we got hit with COVID, a gift from China,

9:12

and we got hit with the China virus,

9:14

and we had a lot of different things, but we,

9:17

getting rid of Comey was a very big

9:19

thing. That took out a lot of people. You know,

9:21

when you looked at what happened, that was the famous

9:24

insurance. We have an insurance policy. The insurance

9:26

policy was

9:28

the Russia, Russia, Russia hooks. It was the dossier,

9:30

all of the fake stuff that we figured out,

9:33

and this is going along. You know, there's

9:35

a lot of litigation going along. We had

9:37

a lousy Attorney General Bill Barr, he

9:40

was gutless, he was a bushy,

9:42

I call him, but he was worse than a bushy. He was afraid

9:44

of being impeached. He was petrified

9:46

of being impeached, and Jeff Sessions

9:48

was terrible. So these were two bad choices

9:51

that were highly recommended to me,

9:53

and the people

9:54

that recommended to me, I don't talk to them too

9:57

much anymore. You know, every time I look

9:59

at them, I don't. exactly smile. But

10:01

now I know everybody. I know Washington

10:03

dead better than you do. I know Washington better

10:06

than any. I know the good ones and the bad ones and

10:08

I know the weak ones and the stupid

10:10

ones. I know the smart ones and

10:13

I think I know the loyal ones. You know loyalty

10:15

is interesting because a lot of times you think somebody's

10:17

loyal and under pressure they break down

10:19

and they're not. But I think I know the loyal

10:21

ones. We have a lot of great loyal ones but I

10:23

think I do. And we go

10:25

in, we would go in so strong

10:28

and I just know, you know, when I had

10:30

to go there I had to rely on people to give

10:32

me advice. Mike Pence gave me some and

10:34

other people gave me some and in

10:37

some cases I was very happy and in some cases

10:39

I was not happy even a little bit.

10:42

But you're gonna

10:44

see things that nobody's ever seen before. We're

10:46

gonna do it 100% right

10:48

because it's all about people and I know the people.

10:50

By the way we had incredible people. You know we

10:53

think of it we rebuilt the military.

10:55

We got rid of ISIS, 100% of the ISIS

10:57

caliphate. We did Space Force.

10:59

The largest tax cuts in history, the

11:01

largest regulation cuts in history. We built

11:04

the greatest economy in the history

11:06

of our country. You know we built the greatest

11:08

economy in the history of our country. And

11:10

by the way this economy that we

11:12

have now it's running on our fumes.

11:15

If we didn't have the economy that we have

11:17

this economy would be crashing. Probably

11:20

Depressionville

11:21

because they are grossly incompetent.

11:24

Yesterday as an example energy

11:26

caused inflation, energy prices, what he

11:29

did on energy and as an example

11:31

yesterday he just ended

11:32

all of the oil leases in Alaska. Right,

11:34

right. That your administration permits.

11:37

It's just amazing how stupid they are. It's

11:39

a death point. They have a death point. Yeah

11:41

and then they want batteries from China

11:44

to fund their electric car revolution.

11:46

It isn't gonna happen but Mr. President I'll get to China

11:48

saying I want to ask you this is a very important. My audience

11:51

I put it out to them earlier on the Rumble Channel questions

11:53

and the one question that came up most of all is people

11:56

are scared about the vaccine. There's been

11:58

a lot of reports of myocarditis. side effects.

12:01

A lot of people are very unhappy with the

12:03

vaccine. They're terrified of new mandates.

12:05

They have a really a pit in their

12:07

stomach, a really bad feeling that if Biden's

12:10

reelected, we're going to see mask mandates and vaccine

12:12

mandates again. If you're reelected president

12:15

United States, can we just be assured

12:17

that that's not going to happen again? 100% and

12:20

I didn't do it the first time.

12:21

You got to understand we had I let

12:24

the republic and then Democrat governors

12:26

run their states. That's called the federal system, by

12:28

the way. But I let them run their state

12:30

and some of them like McMaster and South

12:33

Carolina, like you go

12:35

up to South Dakota and

12:37

you see the great job that I'll

12:39

tell you, you have a governor in South Carolina, Nikki,

12:42

she did some, she did some

12:44

job, she did some job and others,

12:47

they ran their state and they didn't close them.

12:49

Now, Ron DeSancamonia closed Florida,

12:52

100%. The roads were closed, the beaches

12:53

were closed, the whole place was closed

12:55

and he went for vaccines and enforced

12:58

vaccines.

12:59

And you know, it's amazing what he does. Now he's

13:01

down

13:01

so low now, I think he's gonna end up in fourth or fifth

13:03

place.

13:04

He could have probably been

13:06

the leader going into 28. I don't think he

13:08

has a chance of 28 anymore when you look at

13:10

how he's done because he's crashed like a rock. But

13:14

you take a look at what they did in Florida,

13:17

and he closed the place up. And now he's trying to

13:19

say he didn't.

13:19

And by the way, he was a huge Fauci fan,

13:21

he'd go around saying whatever Dr. Fauci wants,

13:23

that's what I want. And I could give you 10 different

13:26

articles, go back to that time. He was

13:28

a big Fauci guy. I wasn't.

13:30

Fauci became big in the Bush

13:32

administration, in the, it's

13:35

almost the same thing, in the Biden administration,

13:38

he became big, he was big with Obama,

13:41

he was very big with, you know, he's been

13:43

there for 45 years, he's been through all of

13:45

them. He's been for Bush, he's been for everybody.

13:47

But

13:48

I didn't, he told me to keep it open,

13:50

let China come in. I said bad things

13:53

are happening in China. And what happened

13:55

is I closed it to China saved hundreds of

13:57

thousands of lives.

13:59

But I let the

13:59

Republican governors and the Democrat

14:02

governors

14:02

do what they wanted. If they wanted to

14:04

close it, they could. I didn't agree

14:07

with it. But if they didn't want to close

14:09

if they wanted and some of the

14:11

some of the governors absolutely did

14:13

a fantastic job. They kept it, you know, they kept

14:16

it open. That turned out to be the best

14:18

thing. Now, Ron DeSantis did not

14:20

keep it open. He closed his beaches, he closed

14:22

his he's closed everything. It was locked down.

14:25

And now I watch him campaigning. And I

14:27

hate to dwell

14:28

on this, but I watch him campaigning and he acts

14:30

like he was one of the guys that

14:31

really kept it open.

14:33

So, you know, I mean, I mean,

14:35

listen, I live down here.

14:38

I get it. And I said, but some

14:41

of these states, it was really fantastic. Yeah,

14:43

I think they I mean, we came around.

14:46

I'm sorry, we came around pretty, you know, pretty

14:49

quick, though, in Florida. And

14:51

I think I you know, I've been I've already endorsed

14:53

you and support you. But Florida came around

14:55

pretty quick. I think there was a lot of mistakes made early

14:58

in this a lot. And you know,

15:00

and I think looking back, it's, you know,

15:03

it's hard to look at it through today's eyes, because

15:05

now we know things like masks don't work,

15:07

the vaccines don't prevent the, you know, the spread

15:10

of COVID early on, people thought everything

15:12

was going to be a magic pill, you know. Remember this

15:14

about Florida and I'm there. Florida

15:16

had the third most deaths of

15:19

any other state. It was number three. And

15:21

that's a horrible scorecard.

15:23

And that's the scorecard that you have to go by.

15:25

But Florida was number three on deaths from COVID.

15:28

So you have to remember, I just don't like it

15:30

when somebody campaigns falsely, and they

15:32

falsely campaign.

15:35

Again, you go to South

15:37

Dakota, you go to you go to South

15:39

Carolina, you go to some of these states, they did a fantastic

15:42

job, they did a really fantastic job. And

15:44

the governors were allowed to do now the Democrat

15:46

governors did a whole in almost every

15:49

case, I think in every case, not

15:51

only in crime, but on COVID,

15:53

they close their states up and they really

15:55

hurt the people of that of those states.

15:58

Mr. President, I only have about a minute left but I really

16:00

want to get in one final question. I'm very

16:03

worried about China. You were very prescient on

16:05

China. You called the China threat out very early

16:07

in your first campaign in 2016 when you were

16:09

running. I have a minute

16:11

left, like a hard minute. What would you do if you get

16:13

reelected on the China situation?

16:16

China used to respect us tremendously.

16:18

They respected me as the president. They don't

16:20

respect us anymore. We have a Manchurian

16:22

candidate. They paid him a lot of money. They

16:25

know all the money they paid him. He's afraid

16:27

to do anything. We have a Manchurian

16:29

candidate in there. China is totally controlling

16:32

them. We had absolute a

16:34

good relationship with China until COVID came.

16:36

Then I had it. But I had a great relationship

16:39

with President Xi and we used

16:41

tariffs. I took in hundreds of billions

16:43

of dollars of money from tariffs and

16:45

they were very good as far as I was

16:47

concerned because they were pulling way

16:50

back. They didn't want to be charge tariffs. We

16:52

have a president that doesn't want to – they lecture

16:55

our president. They spend all this

16:57

time lecturing our president.

17:00

And I've never seen anything. Yeah, that's amazing. I've never seen

17:02

anything. I mean, with no respect – they have no respect

17:04

for our country or our president anymore.

17:06

Mr. President, I got to run, but I just –

17:09

quickly, I just want to thank you. When I

17:11

was in the hospital with the cancer,

17:14

I was having a rough time and I just

17:16

want everyone to know when you talk about loyalty, you

17:18

mean it. I got one phone call that day

17:20

and I was from you. So

17:23

I just want you to know how much I appreciate that. I

17:25

think it's terrific. You know, I think to say you're a

17:27

good man. I just want you to know when the audience

17:29

know when you talk about loyalty, you know,

17:31

you mean it. That's not a shtick. But I do

17:33

got to run. I'm way over. Mr.

17:36

President, thanks so much for your time. You're welcome back anytime.

17:38

We appreciate it. Thanks a lot. So

17:41

long, Dan. Thank you very much. Up

17:43

18:48

about where we are on the anniversary

18:51

over 20 years later. Tough

18:54

day folks, tough

18:57

day for all of us.

19:00

You know usually on Mondays for

19:02

the last two and a half years been

19:05

giving you my weekend updates but

19:07

we'll do that tomorrow it's not it's not the time for that

19:09

today it's

19:12

just it's just not so

19:15

like many of you I woke up this morning you

19:19

know 20 plus years later

19:21

after the dreadful September

19:24

11th attacks and probably

19:27

like many of you you

19:29

always feel like next year it'll get

19:32

easier right you just feel like yeah you've heard

19:34

all the cliches and they're kind

19:37

of silly like time heals all wounds

19:39

actually it doesn't actually someone's time

19:41

doesn't do anything. I

19:44

mean there's stuff that happened to me and I was a kid that

19:46

still hurts today when I think about it now

19:49

as much as it did when it happened sometimes more

19:53

so I'm not sure it heals much of anything but

19:57

I don't know every year I think to myself well I've

19:59

now seen seen this footage 20

20:02

plus times or 20 years in a row,

20:04

I've probably seen it thousands of times because you've seen it over and

20:06

over, but for 20 years in a row I've been watching it,

20:09

maybe it won't be as impactful next year. But

20:14

that happens every year.

20:18

That never happens. Every year

20:23

it almost gets worse. I don't know if I'm ... You

20:25

can tell I'm really in

20:30

a loss for words being a talk radio guy, but

20:32

describing my emotional state has never

20:35

been a ... I'm good at describing politics

20:37

and everything like that, but me

20:40

and emotions don't really work well. My

20:42

aunt Jane who passed, she was my godmother, I loved

20:44

her to death, she used to say, Daniel, you're emotionally

20:47

constipated. She used to say that all the time. I'm

20:49

not really good at the whole emotion thing. But

20:54

9-11 just deeply

20:58

impacted

20:59

me for a number of reasons. Some

21:01

of you

21:02

may have known people, probably impacted you

21:04

more. I knew ... It's just

21:09

so difficult because Paula and I had met a week earlier.

21:14

We had met a week ... One week before

21:17

on a blind date, she's now my wife

21:19

for 20 plus years. My

21:22

wife for 20 years, but we've been together 20 plus.

21:28

Every year we have

21:30

to

21:33

all go through a horror of

21:35

9-11 again together and we should never let

21:37

that go. It just reminds

21:39

me of so much how my entire life

21:41

changed in the first couple weeks

21:44

of September 2001. I was a relatively new

21:48

federal agent. I'd only been on the job outside

21:50

of training for about a year

21:52

or so. I was new with this whole

21:54

federal agent GS1811 thing. sitting

22:00

in my office like many of you that day

22:02

and we were getting ready

22:04

to serve a search warrant for

22:06

this guy who was selling diamonds on

22:08

this new website called eBay. You may have heard

22:11

of it. Well, it was new back

22:13

then and eBay fraud

22:16

was a very real thing. People

22:18

would say, hey, come to my house. We're selling

22:20

a bunch of diamonds on eBay and people would send the money

22:23

and what would be the catch? There were no diamonds.

22:25

There was only your money missing. So that was a really big

22:27

thing. You remember that Jim? Back in the day, website fraud

22:30

was like, it was a 50-50 shot. You

22:32

never get your stuff, you know? So

22:34

this guy was selling these fake diamonds and

22:37

he was

22:39

staying in this hotel on Long Island. I was in

22:41

the Long Island, New York office about 40 miles out

22:43

of the city on that morning. And

22:46

this agent friend of mine, Joe, he was

22:49

doing this search warrant and the guy we were serving

22:51

the search warrant against, I'll never forget, we

22:53

were in the office early that morning about 7 o'clock.

22:56

He happened to be deaf. He couldn't hear.

22:58

So it doesn't mean he doesn't have constitutional rights.

23:01

So I remember we were debating what to do about

23:03

the knock and announce. I mean, it's not

23:05

meant to be. It's true. How do we

23:07

knock if he has a hearing problem and he couldn't hear us?

23:10

So we were unsure about how to handle

23:12

it because you still can't just kick down the door

23:14

because the guy is, you know, that's police

23:17

state stuff. They probably do that now.

23:19

But I mean, back then when we still actually cared about the Constitution

23:22

and everything. And I remember

23:24

just like as we were going through this debate an hour or so

23:26

later, whatever, you

23:29

know, a couple hours after we were sitting

23:31

there in the office and this other agent,

23:33

Tommy, he's called Tommy Hooks because

23:35

he knew everyone. Tommy was like, you know,

23:37

New York name, he's got a nickname, you know, Joey,

23:39

two times Tommy Hooks. Hooks knew everybody. So

23:42

Tommy Hooks came in. We always remember Tommy Hooks because he was

23:44

good at every video game. It was when he wasn't

23:47

even a video game guy. He just go in and play a video

23:49

game like master and he comes running

23:51

in and he says, they just bombed the World Trade

23:53

Center. I said, we want it.

23:55

And we're all looking at him like, are you

23:57

crazy? But the thing about Hooks is he was a

23:59

funny guy, but you

23:59

could tell when he wasn't joking around. So

24:03

I remember looking up with Joe and

24:05

I'm looking at him and I'm like, he's not kidding. So

24:07

it was a small office, the Long Island office

24:09

of the Secret Service wasn't very big. There's

24:11

probably no more than 10,000 square feet,

24:14

maybe less. The time he gets considering

24:17

the safe and the lobby and everything too.

24:20

So we go sprinting down the hallway into my boss's

24:22

office, this guy Marty, and he had one

24:24

of those antenna TVs and

24:26

we turned on and the view was on. And

24:29

the dispatcher in the New York office that day

24:33

was a guy by the name of Maurice. And

24:36

Maurice was the one who told Tommy that a

24:38

bomb went off and there were papers coming down

24:40

between the buildings because the Secret Service office

24:43

in New York was in 7 World Trade Center, we had the

24:45

9th and 10th floor. And

24:47

Maurice saw papers coming down on fire.

24:51

So we put on the TV and we're watching and the view

24:53

is on and we're thinking to ourselves, what the

24:55

hell? No way a bomb went off, why would the

24:57

view be on? And then

25:00

all of a sudden, boom, breaking

25:02

news. And we're like,

25:04

oh snap, something

25:05

happened. So

25:11

the breaking news is there's a big hole in

25:13

one of the World Trade Center buildings and they

25:16

don't know what happened, the bomb or anything like that. And

25:18

then I hear someone on the news say a plane crashed

25:21

into it. And I

25:23

remember my boss Marty, my

25:26

boss Marty, who was a great guy, former NYPD

25:29

cop himself, tough guy, tough

25:32

Irishman, Marty Walsh, good man. God

25:34

bless him, man, love that guy. And

25:37

I remember Marty saying, you think it's an accident? And

25:41

we had this agent, other agent, they were like 10 of us

25:43

in the office, this guy Paul. And

25:46

Paul was a navigator with the Navy, you

25:49

know, like goose from Top Gun, that's what he did. So

25:52

he'd been up in a lot of planes for a lot of time.

25:54

And he was a very smart guy. And

25:57

Paul looked at us and said, that ain't no accident, man.

26:00

They're in a cloud in that sky. He

26:03

said, they hit that thing on purpose. And

26:06

it really took me a second. I mean, folks, if you

26:08

were there and alive at the time, you remember,

26:10

but you got to remember this. For

26:13

a radio show, we got a pretty young demo

26:15

here. There are some 16 to 20-year-olds

26:17

that are listening who are not alive. I don't think

26:19

they can process what the human brain

26:22

went through that day. Wait, what?

26:24

They crashed a plane on purpose into a bit like,

26:26

no, this is the United

26:28

States. This has happened here. What

26:30

is this, North Korea? Like, that's just crazy.

26:35

And of course, we saw the second plane come

26:38

in. And then beyond any reasonable

26:41

doubt, we knew the country

26:43

was going to be plunged into war. And

26:47

it was just a tough thing, folks, for

26:49

everyone at the

26:51

time to see, because all you could think

26:54

about, if you were alive

26:56

that day and there, and I bet I speak

26:58

for all of you, all you could think about is what's going

27:00

on with those people in that building. They're

27:03

jumping. They're burning. And you just, it

27:08

was really hard to process. It

27:12

was really hard to process. The whole thing was just hard to

27:14

process. It was so

27:17

beyond the comprehension of the human neuron

27:19

to understand how much pain was going on

27:21

at that time. And

27:27

my brother worked for the fire department at the time. He

27:29

was an emergency medical technician. And

27:33

we couldn't find him. So

27:35

my dad was

27:37

a really

27:39

tough guy. He's like a hard guy. I don't mean a hard

27:41

guy in a bad way. I just mean he's not really an emotional guy.

27:43

It's kind of where I get that from, I think. I

27:46

never saw my dad cry. My dad didn't cry about it. So

27:48

he's not a crier. He just isn't. And

27:52

my father called me in tears, not just crying,

27:54

like sobbing. My brother was dead because

27:57

we couldn't get him on the phone. He

28:00

tried to get a phone call. I remember that Jim. You couldn't

28:02

get anyone. You couldn't get the phone line. Everything

28:04

was a mess. You wouldn't know. The phone calls

28:06

just weren't going through. So they

28:08

thought he was dead.

28:11

And I had just met Paula a week earlier and

28:13

I'm calling Paula and she's not answering

28:16

either and why would that matter? Well,

28:18

it mattered because Paula worked in the building

28:20

right next door. She

28:22

worked for the Securities Industry Association

28:25

at 120 Broadway, which is literally

28:27

right next door. Paula's looked right down

28:30

into what is now the pit, ground

28:32

zero. And

28:36

I thought she was dead. And I'm trying

28:38

to keep in mind, I'm trying to process all of this because

28:40

I'm expected to act like a federal agent and do my

28:43

job while my brother's missing,

28:45

my dad's crying and my girlfriend

28:47

I've known for a week, wasn't even my girlfriend yet.

28:49

We just went on two dates but

28:52

I was really head over heels for it. I thought

28:54

it was dead too. And

28:57

I'm like, this can't be happening. And

29:00

then we get a call because the UN was going

29:03

on, the United Nations at the time, every Secret Service

29:05

agent in the country practically was in New

29:07

York to protect foreign dignitaries

29:09

at the UN. So

29:12

we're getting calls, this guy's dead, Chris

29:14

is dead, Jason's dead, John is dead.

29:17

Everybody thought everyone was dead. Then there's a call, the White

29:19

House is under attack, the State Department's under

29:21

attack, the Pentagon's under

29:24

attack. No one knew what was real and what wasn't anymore.

29:28

Guys are calling us from New York, we got to evacuate the

29:30

building. It

29:33

was just, I mean to say it

29:35

was emotional overload

29:38

and chaos, it's just, there's

29:40

no justice to those words.

29:43

So to get close to where,

29:45

you know, unfortunately all this was going on, we all

29:48

drove to JFK airport where the Secret

29:50

Service had an office and we set up

29:52

kind of an emergency command center over there and

29:55

we started contacting these agents

29:58

and luckily a lot of them were.

31:59

Hi, I just wanted to say please help my

32:02

family along there too. Hi

32:05

honey.

32:06

Elsa, it's Lynn. I'm

32:09

only half a minute. I'm on I did 93 and

32:12

it's been hijacked by

32:14

terrorists who say they have a bomb. Apparently

32:17

they have flown a couple of planes into the World

32:19

Trade Center already and it looks like they're going to take this one

32:21

down as well. Mostly

32:24

I just wanted to say I love you. And

32:27

I'm going to miss you. And

32:30

please give my love to my dad. Mostly

32:38

I just love you and I just wanted to tell you that. I

32:41

don't know if I'm going to get a chance to play with you

32:43

or not. My

32:46

little, my stuff is in the safe.

32:48

The safe is in my closet,

32:51

my bedroom. My

32:53

combination is you push D for clear and then 0913

32:55

and then it should and

32:57

maybe pound and then it should unlock.

33:01

I

33:04

love you and I hope I can talk to you soon. Bye.

33:09

You

33:09

know I played those voicemails and I

33:11

was reading the Facebook messages and a lot

33:15

of you were deeply touched by that. Some

33:17

of you were crying and so was I. That's

33:20

why I wanted to play them at the end because I knew I wouldn't be

33:22

able to do the segment without it. I

33:25

was done on purpose. But

33:29

that these people know when they

33:31

were going to die on this plane they knew 93

33:33

was going to go down. They knew it. They

33:37

knew it was going down.

33:39

That people thought to call

33:41

and tell their loved ones the safe code so

33:44

that they could get in the safe and live their lives

33:46

without them and get bank records and stuff is just.

33:52

Gosh it's just hard to. It's

33:58

almost surreal even. now. 20

34:00

plus years ago, I'm still in

34:04

shock on the radio today that all that happened

34:06

like it did. And

34:09

a lot of people ask a lot of questions on

34:12

the Facebook during the break. Someone said, I heard the umpire

34:14

at the game when Bush threw out the pitch. The

34:17

umpire was a secret service agent. Is that true?

34:19

And the answer is yes. His name was Ray. I actually

34:22

worked with him. We were instructors together in the

34:24

training academy. He taught counter surveillance, and I taught

34:26

investigations. That was

34:28

true. So a lot of things happened after 9-11.

34:32

But folks, I want to say in conclusion for

34:34

this, because there's a lot of stuff to talk about, that

34:38

there's no emergency severe enough to forfeit

34:41

your civil liberties. 9-11 was

34:44

probably one of the worst, if not the worst,

34:46

days in American history. I was there.

34:49

I lived it like

34:51

a lot of you. I was alive that

34:53

day. But it

34:56

was horrible for a number of reasons.

34:59

A lot of things happened in the aftermath too.

35:01

I really did our country no justice.

35:04

Up next, another great guest talking about a project we've

35:06

been working on, but let's get to our next sponsor first.

35:09

Folks, today's show brought to you by Bone Charge.

35:11

In these crazy days, we got to recharge and refresh in a

35:13

natural way. To that end, I discovered Bone

35:15

Charge, a holistic wellness brand with a huge range

35:17

of evidence-based products to optimize life

35:20

in every way. One of my favorite products from Bone

35:22

Charge is the infrared sauna blanket. It's

35:24

amazing how it helps me ease stress and unwind

35:26

after a crazy day. The sauna blanket helps me

35:28

break a sweat. It helps remove some of this

35:30

garbage from your body. It sets up in less than

35:32

a minute. Folks, it heats fast. I

35:34

relax. I just, I'd say

35:37

chill out, but it's a sauna. You

35:39

feel that heat, that comforting warm heat. The thing

35:41

is, I have really bad arthritis. I know

35:43

I complain about it all the time in the show, probably shouldn't,

35:46

but there's nothing like a good sauna

35:48

sweat to just ease that pain

35:50

away from me. It sets up, like I said,

35:52

in less than a minute. I go for about a 30-minute session.

35:55

I kid you not, the sauna blanket from Bone Charge,

35:57

absolute game changer.

36:29

my friend, Dinesh D'Souza, to talk about a new

36:32

movie we're working on together called Police State.

36:34

You're gonna love it, check it out.

36:37

Go look at the trailer. You need to pay really close

36:39

attention to this, we're in a bad spot. Oh! FBI,

36:43

Ward,

36:43

come to the door now! The Patriot Act and

36:45

FISA were used against Donald Trump. These

36:48

individuals have commissioned

36:50

the biggest propaganda play

36:53

in US history. They

36:55

don't go after the people that rigged the election.

36:57

They go after the people that wanna find out

36:59

what the hell happened. We don't

37:02

need to have a crime. What

37:04

we need is a person to look

37:06

at, and then we go find out

37:08

what crime you did.

37:09

FBI! Our

37:11

focus is shifting. Our main priority

37:13

as a bureau is gonna be domestic terrorism.

37:16

It really paints anybody who's right of

37:18

center. If you're a pro-life, pro-family

37:20

patent, they define you as radical. These

37:23

are anti-government. We are freedom of

37:25

religion and freedom of the free. We

37:29

are violent extremists, and they must be dealt with. We

37:33

can do anything we want.

37:36

Wow. That's just a portion of

37:38

the trailer for a

37:40

project I've been working on with

37:42

the great Dinesh D'Souza. It is a movie.

37:45

It's called Police State. It's

37:47

gonna be in theaters on October 23rd. Folks,

37:51

if you wanna check it out, policestatefilm.net for the

37:53

trailer. And

37:56

here, join us to talk about it. Dinesh,

37:58

thanks for taking some time. Appreciate it.

38:01

Hey, Dan, it's great to be on, and

38:04

really excited about this film. I mean,

38:07

this is a topic

38:09

of such importance, I think, to you as

38:11

well as to me. We're seeing the America

38:14

that I came to as a

38:16

teenager, and the America that you grew up

38:19

in, in a sense being destroyed before

38:21

our eyes and on our watch. So

38:23

we have to do something, and this

38:26

is a way to try to blow the lid off

38:28

of this emerging police state that we

38:31

were familiar with around the rest of the world, but

38:33

here it is coming to America

38:35

now.

38:37

Dinesh, we're talking to Dinesh D'Souza. This

38:40

was the easiest kind of deal,

38:43

I think you probably ever done. Dinesh

38:45

came to me, I don't know, maybe a year ago

38:47

or so and said, hey, Dan, I'm really thinking about doing this

38:49

film on the police state. This

38:51

is this metastasizing cancer. We can't

38:53

have this. We gotta do something, not just talk about

38:56

it. And I was like, yeah, it's done. Send

38:58

me the details later, like I'm 100% in because

39:00

I'm so concerned with this. I saw

39:02

the movie, Dinesh. You

39:04

read my email when you asked me for my feedback.

39:08

My wife was crying at the end of the movie. I

39:10

mean, like actually crying, not figuratively

39:12

crying, because the movie's such a damning

39:14

indictment of where we are right now with the police

39:16

state. I just saw the trailer, however, for the first

39:19

time on the air, and I put it on,

39:21

it's already going nuclear on Twitter and true

39:23

social, already. People are really

39:25

gonna be moved by this project. We did an amazing

39:28

job.

39:29

Well, thank you. I'm really glad

39:31

it's film number seven because I feel

39:33

like over the years, I've improved

39:36

my skills in making these films.

39:38

And what's great about this one is it

39:40

combines an intellectually

39:43

rich narrative, but I've got all

39:46

kinds of insider and first-person

39:48

accounts of the police state by people

39:51

who have direct experience with it. And

39:53

then we combine this with these stunning recreations,

39:56

which are emotionally just riveting. So

39:59

it's a heck of a movie.

39:59

I don't think it's like anything else I've done before.

40:03

We're releasing it originally, kind of previewing

40:05

it in hundreds of theaters,

40:08

and you can buy tickets now. Today is the first

40:10

day, and with 2,000 meals,

40:13

what happened is that the tickets sold out, and then

40:15

people were like, I want to go to the theater and see it because

40:17

I want to see it with my group. I want to see

40:19

it with my friends. Well, now's the time to

40:21

do it, and you mentioned the website. It's just policestatefilm.net,

40:25

not .com, but .net, policestatefilm.net,

40:29

and it's a chance for people

40:29

to sign up early and make some plans

40:32

to go see this film in the theater

40:34

with full effects October 23rd

40:37

and October 25th, just those two days.

40:40

Dinesh, the portion of the film where

40:42

you talk to the Hispanic gentleman

40:44

who was a victim of the police state,

40:48

I got to tell you, it's so

40:50

moving that it's hard

40:53

to watch and wake up the same day the same

40:55

person. I

40:57

guess what I'm saying is you're not the same person after

40:59

the film, that once you see that,

41:02

it's like the wizard. You've seen the wizard. You

41:04

know it's all a show, like it's all crap. That

41:07

scene, and then the scene of ... I don't want to give

41:09

away too much. I want people to see it for themselves, but the

41:12

aunt of the young man who

41:14

sadly killed himself after being pushed

41:17

by the police state, they're

41:20

so deeply troubling to see, but don't

41:22

you think that we have to see this?

41:24

It's not the kind of thing we can look away from and pretend

41:26

it's going to go away because that knock could come at your

41:29

door. We could all be victims

41:31

of this if we don't do something.

41:33

This is right. This is no longer

41:35

about just Trump. It's

41:38

no longer about just January 6th, because

41:40

there are going to be some people even on our side

41:42

who say, well, gee, I'm not Trump, and

41:45

I didn't go inside the Capitol, so I'm safe.

41:48

They're not going to come after me. They're not going to go after my

41:50

taxes. They're not going to try to lock me up, but

41:53

we see that there is a coordinated

41:56

enterprise, and in some

41:58

ways, I don't even like to ...

41:59

deep state because deep state implies

42:02

it is all hidden. Some of the enterprise

42:04

is hidden. It involves the police agencies

42:06

of the government, but it involves academia,

42:09

it involves non-profit institutions.

42:11

Think of all the different participants, for example,

42:14

in digital censorship. It's a coordinated

42:16

campaign and

42:18

all our civil liberties are under

42:20

assault in a way that frankly I

42:22

would have found unbelievable if you

42:24

had told me about this even a decade ago.

42:27

Yeah, we're talking to Dinesh D'Souza. We've

42:30

been working on a project. It's a movie called

42:32

Police State. You can pick up tickets

42:34

now. PoliceStateFilm.net. Just

42:37

watch the trailer, folks. It

42:39

sells itself. I don't need to even say anymore. But

42:42

Dinesh, there was, you know, someone who's followed

42:44

this like me, I've written books about, Spygate

42:47

and the attack on Donald Trump and following

42:49

the money trail. There were stories

42:52

in there, you know, I hadn't heard. I mean,

42:55

you really went out and these

42:57

are interviews with real people who've

42:59

been real victims and I

43:01

can guarantee you no matter how much you

43:04

follow January 6th, the attack

43:06

on parents at school board meetings, the attacks

43:08

on pro lifers by the FBI and elsewhere,

43:11

I can guarantee you there's pieces of this film that

43:13

are gonna shock you. There are stories there I hadn't

43:15

heard. I'm just curious, when we were kind

43:17

of editing down the film and ultimately it was

43:20

your project, I'm just a partner in it, how

43:22

did you decide? There were so many

43:25

powerful stories. How did you distill

43:27

it down to just these

43:29

couple that, you know, that we put in there, these

43:31

stories and edit it? There

43:34

was so much powerful stuff in there.

43:36

Well, my principle, and this applies to

43:39

the books I write and also to the films,

43:41

is originality. You know, we want to bring

43:43

this out in a fresh way and

43:46

we also want to bring all the threads together

43:48

because people know some of the pieces of

43:50

all this but really it is the

43:53

bringing it together that shows you that

43:55

the prospect of a police state, I mean

43:57

think about it, the kind of stuff that we've talked about...

43:59

in, you know, occurring in North Korea

44:02

or historically, for example, in the Soviet

44:04

Union or in Castro's Cuba. We've

44:07

grown up with this distinction that we are the free

44:10

world and they are the unfree world and

44:12

we're seeing this distinction erode

44:15

before our very eyes. So I

44:17

think that there is a window in which

44:20

this police state can be stopped, but

44:23

that window doesn't stay open forever.

44:25

So there is a sense of urgency

44:27

in this movie, but I think

44:29

that the movie has an intellectual and emotional

44:32

power that will blow the lid

44:34

off of this issue. It will make it very

44:36

difficult for the left to look at this

44:39

and go, yeah, we think this is actually

44:41

good. We think that this is the way to save democracy

44:43

in America. Nothing

44:45

could be further from the truth.

44:47

No, I'm so glad you said that because,

44:50

you know, we were chatting on email and I said, you

44:53

know, this thing is this thing is bulletproof. I

44:55

mean, what are you going to do? Tell

44:57

us that the Hispanic guy in tears

45:00

who was a victim of the police state and

45:02

breaking into his mother's apartment, you're going to tell

45:04

it didn't happen. The guy has

45:06

evidence, this video, the guy's there

45:09

crying like this stuff happened. These stories

45:11

happen. You can't tell us all. It's all BS. You

45:13

guys are making this stuff up. The movie

45:15

is really troubling. And and Dinesh, what

45:18

a day to have you on when we find

45:20

out today that in this Fannie

45:22

Willis and the Fulton County, they

45:25

were going to indict Kelly Loeffler,

45:28

David Perdue

45:29

and Lindsey Graham. Listen, I'm no

45:31

big fan of Lindsey Graham, but they were going

45:33

to indict these guys for speaking out

45:36

about an obviously messed up election.

45:38

Like this is like North Korea style

45:41

stuff happening.

45:42

Well, I mean, it shows you I think that Fannie

45:45

Willis would have indicted them, but

45:47

I think she realized that prudentially it's

45:49

probably it probably wouldn't look good

45:51

to take the two Republican senatorial

45:54

candidates in Georgia and try

45:56

to lock them up. Right. That would

45:58

put in some ways put her project way. too much out

46:00

in the open and so she probably decided, gee,

46:03

you know what, let's wait for a later date when

46:05

we can do this to our political opponents

46:07

in a full-scale

46:08

way. The point I'm trying to

46:10

make here

46:10

is that the police state at some point

46:13

comes fully out into the open. I mean,

46:15

in the end, Stalin didn't have to give reasons

46:17

for why he was arresting all his opponents

46:20

because he was fully in charge.

46:22

The police state is not fully established.

46:24

It's in the process of being built. The

46:27

good thing about this movie is that it's thought

46:29

through all this and it lays it

46:31

all out I think in a way that there's nothing

46:33

out there that even comes close. So

46:36

I couldn't be more excited that we're bringing this

46:38

out next month. I think it's going to cause

46:40

a huge stir and I'd love people to get

46:42

out early, share the information and

46:45

sign up to go and see it in the theater, which is

46:47

really the best way to see it.

46:49

Folks, about the trailer for Police State,

46:52

the film I'm working on with Dinesh D'Souza, it's

46:54

ready to go now. The trailer's on

46:56

my Twitter and True Social account. You're

46:59

going to see Kyle Serafin in there, Julie Kelly,

47:01

Senator Rand Paul, Jim Jordan, FBI

47:04

whistleblowers. It is a stunning indictment

47:06

of where we are right now. Dinesh, last question

47:09

and I'll let you go. The website, by the

47:11

way, is policestatefilm.net.

47:14

I promise you it's going to sell out quick. Reserve

47:16

your tickets today, policestatefilm.net.

47:19

You know, I say in the film, and

47:22

I'll leave it here with you and I'll let you answer, that

47:24

we could all be next. If they could

47:26

do this to a sitting president, if

47:28

they could threaten it against US senators,

47:31

if they could put lawyers behind bars,

47:33

violate due process, violate

47:36

the right to petition and assemble your government, then

47:38

your God-given rights are gone. But

47:40

we could all be victims. There's not going

47:42

to be any sitting this out in the future. You

47:44

just said it. That once the police state gets

47:47

comfortable with not having to manage the PR anymore,

47:49

at that point, it's over. The force is

47:52

overwhelming and it's already entrenched.

47:54

It's a magnet you're never going to be able to get away from.

47:58

Yes, I think there's a line. I say in

48:00

the film that you know that the police

48:02

state is here when the whole country

48:05

in effect has been turned into a prison. So

48:08

what the left is doing is right now they

48:10

need one side, the Democrats,

48:13

to help them to build the police state.

48:15

And a lot of their actions and secrecy are

48:17

sometimes in public aimed at

48:20

constructing the police state

48:22

that at some point will be invincible,

48:24

will be impossible to stop. And even the Democrats

48:26

at that point won't be safe from it because

48:29

in the end, the FBI doesn't

48:31

care whether or not somebody is

48:33

on the Democratic side or they're on the

48:35

Republican side. Anyone who is an

48:37

enemy of the state will be targeted. So

48:40

it's a very scary thing that we're witnessing.

48:42

We're witnessing it in pieces. And

48:45

we tend to think, OK, you know what, I'm going to be like the

48:47

wildebeest in the herd. I'm going to move away.

48:49

It's not going to be me that's going to be eaten.

48:51

Well, yes, in the end, it's going to be you.

48:55

I've seen all your films, read

48:57

all your books, talking to Dinesh D'Souza. But

49:00

I'd venture to say this, you know, and

49:02

people say it all, but I mean this, I've seen them all. This

49:05

may be your most important project because this is one of those projects

49:07

where if we can get some traction with this,

49:10

I think this will definitely motivate people to action

49:12

and run for office, to volunteer their time, to

49:15

fight back legally and to say, you know,

49:17

no more. We're not crossing that Rubicon. Not

49:19

going to happen. Not on my watch. I've got

49:21

a country to get my kids to. Dinesh, thanks so much. The

49:24

website, folks, is PoliceStateFilm.net.

49:27

I hope it's a huge success. Thanks for spending some time

49:29

with us. We appreciate it.

49:31

Yeah, and always a pleasure.

49:32

You got it. Folks, just watch the trailer.

49:34

That's all I ask. It'll take a minute and a half of your

49:37

time. I promise if it doesn't

49:39

move you, then this

49:41

show has been a total waste of my time. Just

49:45

watch the trailer. PoliceStateFilm.net. Check

49:48

it out on Truth on my account there or on Twitter.

49:50

And just watch for yourself. That's Police

49:52

State. See you in October. Another rant next.

49:55

A good one. But first, our next sponsor.

49:58

Feel the greens. I take this. stuff twice

50:00

a day, swear by it. Folks, Field

50:02

of Greens is healthy and wholesome.

50:05

It's got this blend of

50:07

fruits and vegetables on the back. I love

50:09

it, and you know the key to good health is good

50:12

nutrition. Unlike the others, each

50:14

fruit and vegetable in Field of Greens was medically selected

50:16

by their own doctor to help support your

50:18

nutrition, which could help your vital organs

50:21

like heart, lungs, kidneys, and immune system.

50:23

Flu season's here, I trust Field of Greens to help

50:26

me stay healthy. Again, I take it twice a day.

50:28

I want you to look at the list of incredibly

50:31

healthy vegetables on the back and fruits.

50:33

It tastes delicious, that's the wild berry. Field

50:35

of Greens works fast. I think you'll

50:37

feel better with more energy. You'll probably notice your skin,

50:39

hair, and nails will look healthier too. If you

50:42

don't always eat right and exercise like a lot of people,

50:44

you don't have time, you're stressed out, I get

50:46

it. Join me, take Field

50:48

of Greens. I take it twice a day. Let me get you started today

50:51

with 15% off your first order. Try

50:53

it out, I swear by it. I'm gonna be 49. I've

50:56

been through a lot. I actually don't feel too

50:58

bad right now in my life. I should feel a lot worse. It's

51:00

probably because of Field of Greens. Visit BrickHouseNutrition.com

John Edwards, the Democrat, he was right about one thing.

51:17

There are two Americas. I'll explain why. But

51:21

folks, there are two Americas right now and I really hope

51:23

you're living in the right one. Because let

51:25

me tell you something, by no objective measure, using

51:28

reason, is anyone going to be happier

51:30

right now living in one of these liberal hell holes

51:32

and living in conservative red America? No

51:34

objective measure. Again, I'm talking about using

51:37

reason. Now,

51:39

there are reasons to live in blue

51:42

America. Some people have jobs they can't leave

51:45

from, family close by. I'm down here in Florida.

51:47

I run into people all the time. They come up to me in

51:49

the restaurants I go into. Hey,

51:51

visiting for the weekend. Florida's a big tourism

51:53

state. Oh, where you

51:55

from? Ah, New York. Well, how come you still live up there? They'll

51:58

have like a Trump shirt on or something like that. how my

52:00

kids are nearby, I totally understand. It's not my position

52:02

to tell people when and where to move. But

52:05

I want you to just be clear. You're living

52:07

in a different America than we live in down here.

52:10

I live in what I guess you'd call relatively small

52:12

town America. I say relatively because I lived

52:14

in Stewart, Florida, in

52:17

an enclave there in Stewart, Florida, and Stewart's

52:19

a great place to live. It's always like a top 10 place

52:22

to live, which the locals hate because everybody keeps moving

52:24

down here when I don't blame them. But

52:27

it's kind of a mid, small

52:29

to mid-sized town. And

52:31

we just don't have the stuff you

52:33

live with in big city America.

52:36

I know that because I live there. I

52:38

lived in New York most of my adult life and then

52:40

moved to Blue, Maryland, not far

52:42

outside of Baltimore City. I'm intimately

52:44

familiar with the problems of areas run by

52:46

liberals. And we just

52:48

don't have that stuff down here. We

52:52

have relatively clean elections. The Santhus

52:55

won by 20 points. If you say if the liberals cheated,

52:57

they did a terrible job at it. Won

52:59

by 19 points in Florida. I never seen

53:01

anything like it. The Santhus

53:03

won by 19 points. I can't even tell you in Florida

53:06

how big of a deal that is. You win in

53:08

Florida by one point. It's considered a landslide.

53:12

The voting system even by mail down here

53:15

is always gonna be cheating, but it's relatively

53:17

clean. They've been doing it a long time. You

53:20

get to track your ballot. The online system

53:22

is super efficient. You've got to provide

53:24

some form of identification, a

53:27

driver's license number. So it's really

53:29

hard for them to cheat. They can't just randomly

53:32

grab, it's not impossible, but it's hard. The

53:35

sheriffs down here in Florida, 90 plus

53:38

percent of them are constitutional sheriffs

53:40

who aren't gonna screw around with

53:43

any kind of crime. A

53:45

lot of them are really good on respecting civil liberties

53:47

too, which is important. That's the thing for us too. We

53:50

support the police. We also support the constitution.

53:56

The schools are picking up. Not the best

53:58

in the country, but they're picking up. We

54:00

don't have these problems.

54:01

So when John Edwards gave that speech running for president

54:04

over a decade plus ago, talking

54:07

about two Americas and using some liberal perspective

54:10

to highlight that point, he was right. It's just

54:12

the liberal perspective that was going to two Americas

54:14

were created by liberalism. Folks,

54:17

they can prove it to you. I always bring the receipts.

54:21

Here's a woman who made the mistake of traveling

54:24

to San Francisco before moving to Bali. So

54:27

she had everything with her. All

54:29

her stuff. I feel

54:31

bad for these people. I know sometimes

54:33

it's not PC on the right, but

54:36

I grew up in a lot of these cities and a good

54:39

chunk of people there are not

54:41

liberal crazies. They're just

54:43

normal people who are trying to live their lives who

54:45

were stuck there for jobs or other reasons. I don't know this

54:47

woman's politics. I don't really care. But

54:50

I want you to listen to what happened to this woman. She'd

54:53

been out kind of partying with her friends. So

54:56

she's getting ready to move to Bali. She

54:58

throws all her stuff in the back of a rental

55:00

Jeep. She's headed to the airport with all her

55:02

gear. She decides she's going to stop at the airport

55:04

to get a burger and fries

55:07

ultimate recovery food right there. Need that

55:09

salt, right? She's in there five

55:12

minutes. This is in San Francisco. This

55:15

is the San Francisco they live in

55:17

that doesn't exist in the world I live in down

55:19

here. Take a listen. Legitimately,

55:21

everything that I own was just stolen

55:23

and I'm sitting here at the airport. And all I have

55:25

with me is what I have on and this hat

55:28

and that like tiny purse with actually nothing in

55:30

it. My computer, my iPad,

55:32

my AirPods, my Bose over the ear headphones,

55:35

all of my clothes, my prescriptions,

55:37

my retainer, my passport, my passport,

55:40

legitimately everything I own was taken. So

55:42

I got here to San Francisco two days ago. I got

55:44

a rental car, had a long layover before

55:47

I'm moving on. I was moving to Bali.

55:49

I had all my stuff, everything to move there

55:51

with me. Got a rental car. I was driving around

55:53

parked this morning.

55:55

In the night I was kind of hungover when I was with my friends

55:57

last night. Hark

55:58

to get a beer.

55:59

and fries and went

56:02

in. I was in there for four minutes just getting takeout like

56:04

grabbing something and going. I'm up at the counter

56:06

literally ordering and someone goes who

56:08

has the Jeep outside? I'm like I do and

56:10

they're like someone's stealing all your stuff. I

56:13

run out there and this is what I see. Four

56:16

masked guys with ski masks on, grabbed

56:19

all of my stuff out of the car, smashed the

56:21

windows, obliterated this rental car

56:23

that I had and took all of my stuff.

56:26

And now because I don't have my passport I obviously

56:28

can't leave the country

56:29

and fly to Bali. And I'm like what

56:32

the heck?

56:34

Folks again I have to ask you

56:37

is it bad enough yet? A

56:40

lot of you are probably listening to the show

56:42

across the country including KSFO, one of our

56:44

San Francisco stations we love having on board. And

56:47

I know you're not the issue if you listen to the show

56:49

you're probably saying hey we didn't vote for this and you're right

56:51

you didn't. But

56:53

you got to be wondering out in San Francisco, Chicago,

56:56

and New York when are your fellow citizens who did

56:58

vote for this going to change their voting behavior and vote

57:00

for something not this like ie something

57:03

different? Folks

57:06

we're not even close to there yet. No, surely

57:08

it's getting bad enough. Did you see that video

57:10

from Philadelphia? I mean obviously playing it on the

57:12

show it's only video is useless. It's an audio-radio

57:15

program. There's a video out of Philadelphia

57:17

they call it the zombie video. A woman

57:19

just walked around the street filming. You saw it Jim? People

57:21

walk around, I mean they look like actual zombies. They

57:24

look like they're dead men walking Cesar Romero

57:27

saw. Cesar Romero was

57:29

that the Joker or was that they, I always screw this

57:31

quote. Was that, that was a Joker.

57:33

Was that the, who was the guy who did the Walking

57:35

Dead movie, the original one? You got to look that

57:38

up for me cuz that'll drive me crazy. You know I always screw up

57:40

pop culture reference. That's my thing. It's like a shtick

57:42

on the show except it's real I really screw it up. The

57:45

Joker. They're walking

57:48

around like crazy people.

57:51

Like they have no brains.

57:52

Like the Last of Us show. George

57:55

Romero got the last name, my first name. Maybe

57:58

he's a cousin of Cesar.

57:59

That's what it looks like. Now you're probably saying

58:02

to yourself, this is everywhere. It's

58:04

clearly bad enough at this point. It

58:06

is definitely bad enough. People

58:09

are gonna change their voting behavior. Folks, listen

58:11

man, I'm not here to spin your wheels. I'm not

58:14

sure it is. New

58:17

poll out. 38% of

58:21

New York voters say we should not.

58:23

Oh no, excuse me, 38%. Let

58:25

me get this right, I don't wanna screw this up because this is important.

58:30

Only 38% of New York City residents want

58:33

a border wall in the most recent poll.

58:36

Marina Medven's Twitter, she actually puts the poll

58:38

on her.

58:41

We're not there.

58:44

It's not bad enough yet. It

58:47

pains me to say this in these markets

58:49

we're in. Because I love being there

58:51

and I love talking to you. But I

58:54

am with you. I grew up in New York

58:56

in my entire life, in the New York

58:58

in the 80s. So you know, in

59:00

San Francisco and WLS in Chicago,

59:03

where I think Jim pretty soon we're

59:05

coming on at night too. We're gonna be like a two a

59:07

day, right? Like nine, they're gonna rerun, that's

59:09

pretty cool. Thank you, WLS, we love

59:12

that. But in these cities like New York where

59:14

we're on too, DC we're on WMAO,

59:17

it pains me to tell you this. I don't speak

59:19

with four tongue here. I lived this. I

59:22

lived it in New York where everybody said

59:24

this all the time. They were like, next year

59:26

it's definitely gonna change. And it didn't.

59:31

We went from what, A-beam to, do you remember

59:33

Jim to

59:34

Ed Koch, to David Dinkins? I

59:36

mean it got worse, not better. And

59:39

then you know what happened? Eventually

59:41

it got bad enough. I

59:43

don't just say this to spin your wheels.

59:46

Like I'm trying to waste your time on a radio.

59:48

I love the radio show. I don't like to waste the second of

59:50

it. I'm not gonna be around forever. I'm

59:53

not going anywhere on the radio. But you know, life

59:55

is, fragile man. Every

59:57

second of it is fragile.

1:01:33

April

1:02:00

probably wasn't even good probably burned out my olfactory

1:02:02

nerve I don't care I couldn't

1:02:04

do you can't do it this

1:02:07

is what we went through in New York so all the people listening

1:02:09

to me on these liberal stations but

1:02:11

conservatives saying you know hey

1:02:14

man we're with you I'm with you I'm

1:02:16

with you I was there but I'm

1:02:20

sorry to tell you it's not bad enough I

1:02:23

mean how do you explain this poll only thirty eight

1:02:26

percent of New York City residents want a border wall

1:02:29

I thought we were told it was an eruption and

1:02:31

a chaos in New York people

1:02:33

are tired of all this stuff obviously not

1:02:36

obviously they're not

1:02:39

I'm sorry they're not the data doesn't

1:02:41

bear that out the New York

1:02:43

City mayor's race coming

1:02:46

up in a couple years whenever it's going down I think

1:02:48

they have an off-year race still Eric

1:02:50

Adams will probably win by 20 points it's

1:02:54

just not bad enough yet the

1:02:57

Carter years the Carter

1:02:59

years were bad enough the

1:03:01

Malay's speech super inflation

1:03:04

high unemployment people

1:03:07

had to wait online with odd numbered

1:03:10

license plates on specific gas days

1:03:12

when it affects them personally and it's bad enough

1:03:14

people change up until that point they won't it's

1:03:19

just not bad enough folks here's

1:03:22

another one New York Post NYPD

1:03:25

to cut overtime to pay for the migrant crisis

1:03:29

New York City is in the middle of a crime crisis

1:03:31

right now and liberals are still absolutely

1:03:34

incapable of understanding what an opportunity

1:03:36

cost it you see if there's one

1:03:39

distinction

1:03:40

one I'd say paramount to all

1:03:42

others that separates us

1:03:45

from the libs it says liberals

1:03:47

do not understand the world of scarce resources

1:03:50

in liberals every amount of government spending

1:03:53

is worth it in liberalism

1:03:56

health care should be free

1:03:58

they create rights that

1:03:59

create obligations on others. I

1:04:02

have the right to healthcare. Really, so the doctor

1:04:04

should have to serve you for free? Oh yeah,

1:04:06

absolutely. Well, what if he doesn't want to work? Then we'll force

1:04:08

him or put him in a gulag. That's the left. The

1:04:11

left doesn't understand that the world is full of compromised

1:04:14

choices. That's the world we live in, not the world

1:04:16

you want to live in. That's the real world. That's

1:04:18

what makes us different from them, and it's what makes conservative,

1:04:21

conservatism hard to explain to people. No

1:04:24

one wants to hear we live in a world of scarce resources.

1:04:28

So now the NYPD's budget's gonna be

1:04:30

cut dramatically, creating another

1:04:32

public health crisis, public safety crisis

1:04:34

in New York City, to pay for illegal migrants,

1:04:37

and still only 30% of New York City residents

1:04:39

want a border wall. It's not bad enough.

1:04:43

Not bad enough.

1:04:45

They don't understand an opportunity cost either.

1:04:49

What's an opportunity cost, folks? It's the cost of

1:04:51

a foregone opportunity. My

1:04:53

wife's a pretty talented web designer.

1:04:56

Back in her heyday, she could make a fortune designing

1:04:58

high-end websites. What if

1:05:00

my wife decided to mow lawns for a living? There's

1:05:03

nothing wrong with that. There's value in all work. But

1:05:05

if she charged 20 bucks an hour to mow lawns,

1:05:08

economically, you'd say, well, she's $20

1:05:11

better off per hour. She's actually not. She

1:05:13

could have made $200 or more per hour designing

1:05:16

websites. She's actually not making $20

1:05:18

an hour. She's actually losing 180. That's

1:05:21

what an opportunity cost is, the cost of

1:05:23

a foregone opportunity. Liberals

1:05:26

don't ever, they never understood the concept

1:05:28

of opportunity cost. If

1:05:30

you are going to choose immigration, there

1:05:32

is a foregone opportunity because you're going to

1:05:34

have to finance illegal immigrants. That

1:05:37

foregone opportunity is a safe city

1:05:39

for you to live in. You can't have it both ways.

1:05:41

You live in a world of scarce resources. I'm sorry you don't

1:05:43

see it that way. But

1:05:47

because you don't see it that way doesn't make it

1:05:49

real. And when

1:05:51

it gets really real, and I hope it doesn't happen

1:05:53

to you, and that criminal comes knocking

1:05:56

on your door or steals your car,

1:05:59

you'll understand opportunity costs. By

1:06:02

trial and error, not from a book. Thanks
