Trump DC TAKEOVER, Nick Fuentes vs Tucker & Candace, California Land Grab EXPOSED | PBD Podcast 628

I'm gonna be honest, I'm not a fan of the way he's talking.

I'm not a fan of the way he's talking. I'm not a fan of the way he's talking.

I'm not a fan of the way he's talking.

I'm not a fan of the way he's talking. Alright folks, 9am sharp, lots going on. We gotta cover this redistricting, this gerrymandering, this California, Chicago, Illinois, you gotta see the history of gerrymandering, what the hell is gerrymandering about, how did they come up with the name? How often can they redistrict? There's all these details about these things and some states do it better than others.

Newsom's now threatening Trump twice going after him, telling him what Abbott has done is absolutely uncalled for. And then last night we get the Senate hearing for Texas approving the new congressional map ordered by Trump after everybody left and could potentially replace five new Seats would one of them being representative Jasmine Crockett, which is something you ought to know about That's why this redistricting thing right now is something that everybody is talking about and Newsom is using this as usual

Politically to make it seem like if they do redistricting, California It's because of Trump not because he ever wanted to do it of course he would never want to do such a thing it's all because of Trump's fault so we'll cover that never let a good crisis go to waste I believe there's a few other things that we have to do is already doing it outside of that DC sending national security some people are saying wait a minute why are we sending national security and in

morning Joe Joe Scarborough is caught trying to read this text from a liberal in DC that is an extremely liberal guy that's in DC talking about how unhappy he is with safety in DC. You can tell he's uncomfortable wanting to read it. I knew Joe was uncomfortable wanting to read it. Or his producers are don't read it and he read it anyways.

Either way, good on him for reading it. I'll show it to you in a minute. I don't know what's going on with Candace, Nick Fuentes, Tucker, Elon got involved. There's a bunch of things going on there.

Who do you believe?

I believe him. I believe her. I'm with him. Either way, there's a lot of it going on and people are getting involved. Elon jumped into it as well so we're going to have to respond to that and give some thoughts. Supreme Court formally asked to overturn landmark same-sex marriage ruling in a state. Could this become a federal thing because that is a state, who knows, Wall Street stunned as inflation defies odds on tariffs.

And everybody said, oh my God, inflation know, it's going to be terrible. Inflation's going to go up because of tariffs. It's not happening. Then next one is Elon Musk and Sam Altman engage in a fierce war of words on X. All you need to know is you see Sam Altman retweets at Elon because Elon's threatening to sue Apple because X is not showing up or Grok is not showing up on the app downloads.

I think it's X that's not showing up and they're not happy about it, but then Sam had some stuff to say. Trump defense taking 15% cut of Nvidia, AMD chip sales to China. Tom's got a lot of thoughts on that. Harry Enten from CNN admits Trump has the best political instinct he's ever seen. The good news is Harry's very young But it's been a long time that he's been seeing this so great

We'll see what he has to say about it Trump Russia Trump critic criticizes Zelensky over Ukraine land swap objections Amid Putin talks and European leaders plan to meet with Trump before Putin talks. That's a Wall Street Journal story. They're worried that You know look we just want you to know please when you meet with Putin Don't invite him to be part of NATO, and what are your motives? What are your intentions? They're worried about it Trump takes extraordinary actions to push bloodshed and BDM in DC by seizing control of local police unleashing National Guard

Pete Hex it said he's ready for it Middle class residents of Demeron City say they're trapped in unsellable homes surrounded by drug markets. Tom's got some thoughts on that. We're of course going to talk about the redistricting. California City approves a $100,000 fund to help migrants pay rent.

Oh my goodness, just brilliant when you think about that. Ready for this next one? Folks in real estate or those that want to buy, you may want to listen to this. Fed governor maintains outlook for three interest cuts in 2025. What? Not just one?

Rob, what is the a link for it for people that only listen to audio, like if it's in different places?

Not that I'm aware of, I can look and find it.

Well, I would say maybe send an email to info at vt.com, send an email to info at vt.com and they'll send it back over to you, but if you don't, it's a link on Spotify and on YouTube, you'll be able to get to it To learn what that is all about. I'm looking forward to seeing many of you here. All right, let's get right into it What is gerrymandering? What is redistricting? Why are people losing their minds in the state of, Texas?

You have the governor state of Texas. What's his name? Governor Abbott it's out Greg Abbott Goes out there and they announced that they're gonna be redistricting and they're gonna a lot of people they're gerrymandering. They're redistricting and Then it goes to vote on the Senate seat, which I believe it's 31 Senators state senators in Texas that have to vote for it. Okay, they vote 19 to 2. Okay 9 Democrats are not even there

They left many of them went to Illinois some of them went to Massachusetts, some of them went to New York. They're complaining about what's going on in the state of Texas.

By the way, was their duty to appear and vote?

It was their duty to appear and vote and they didn't.

So is that, like, meaning, is it an arrest?

Oh, let me tell you what happened. So first of all, what would happen if the cops go on strike cops can't go on strike These your elected officials went on strike. They went on strike. They left Okay, one of the ladies even said this is you know, Hoco called this I mean she went off saying things about one of the representatives even called this, you know, the Holocaust is what she called it I'm not even Jolanda Jones. Can you tap in Jolanda Jolanda Jones Rob?

Jolanda Jones called it a holocaust that though. Is that Jolanda Jones? Yes. Okay. Watch this one here. This is what she called it Go ahead They don't accept this they are showing us who they are We should believe them and we better have the courage to stand up Otherwise, we will fall for anything and in this country we will be defeated Deported I mean we will lose all of our rights

She's criticizing citizens of Texas that elected her. Okay, so they don't hate you. There's some number of elected you woman Tom

We got it. So so she says Holocaust Jasmine Crockett is worried because one of the seeds could potentially get her to lose her seat. So then last night they vote. And when they vote, it comes out that Texas Senate approves the new congressional map ordered they say by Trump. This is obviously not coming by Trump, but they're calling it order by Trump because a lot of people saying

They're doing this right before the midterms because they're worried Texas could go blue and may as well do it now before it's too late. So Texas Senate approved the new congressional boundaries on Tuesday with a vote of 19 to 2 aiming to secure five additional Republican seats in the house for the 2026 elections as Pushed for Donald by Donald Trump. That's what they're saying. But House Democrats' absence from Austin has stalled the Texas House from approving the

map for over a week. Nine Senate Democrats walked out the caucus. And then Senate Democrats labeled the map unconstitutional, but Senate Phil King argued no one has presented data or frankly any compelling case that this map violates any of the applicable laws as the Senate votes proceed. Now this is the part to keep in mind.

So let's talk about what's gerrymandering and redistricting. The way to look at it is if you go to, Rob, go to Illinois districts in 1950. Okay? If you go to Illinois districts in 1950. Okay, if you go to Illinois districts in 1950, okay? And if you just type in images and you go to it, yeah, go to the one on the top left,

the first one that you have. That's what it looked like. And if you zoom in, this is the part that people are kind of a zoom, if you can, okay. Do you see how it makes sense? Because they're all within the same community.

You see how all the purple is together, the light blue is all together, the brown is pretty much it's the same community. This is what it used to be back in the days. And what does this mean Pat, not to cut you off, so these are Republican, Democrats, all different? Each of these districts have a representative. Okay. One of them could be a Democrat or Republican. Got you. But this is 1950. Okay. Okay, what Illinois look like can you run each district has roughly the same number of people?

That's why you have small ones in cities big ones rule about the same number of citizens

This is the districts today if you come to it, and if you can do me a favor for Illinois Go to district 3. I think it's district 3, Illinois District 3 it could be district 3 or 7 they call it and district 9. Yeah, they call it the earmuffs type in type in Illinois district earmuffs Yeah earmuffs watch this go to images So you notice what you just saw? Okay, click on that Vinny. That's now a district what yeah, so that's called gerrymandering

So what they do is they split it up To take things like let's just say if that place is too much Republican in one district Okay, and the representative in that area could end up being a Republican. They'll split it into different districts To have the Republicans be the minority of another district. So intentionally loose so that they call this Gerrymandering the same thing happened in Maryland Rob if you go to Maryland district 3 can you look at Chicago 9 real quick? Yeah, we'll go to that as we'll go to Maryland district 3 Democrats are smart, huh? So

Go to 7-1 go to Maryland district 7. I just want to see it's one of the two There's there's there's another one that is extremely weird. We'll show some of these to you guys. Okay, look at that one right there Do you see how it's cut? Yeah, it's cut intentionally that way to hurt some of the folks that like imagine you cut a Republican County a community in a certain way to hurt them you do it this way then you win So now while we're going through the history of gerrymandering and how this whole thing came about this goes all the way back to 1800s There was a governor. I think the governor of Massachusetts, his name was Elbridge Gerry.

Rob, can you type in Elbridge Gerry, G-E-R-R-Y. There you go. So this guy is the first guy that understood what redistricting was and he built a district that looks like a salamander so type in Elbridge Jerry salamander he's the first guy that did it and he was part of the Democratic Republican Party back in the days there was a Democratic Republican Party go on the top left that's the district

let's go freaking he drew that district oh scary do you see how he drew that

this figure a dragon?

What did he do?

So they called it, that's a salamander. The name came from Jerry and salamander, they called it Jerry Mandarin. This is how the name came about from the 1800s. So it became a brilliant strategy for a lot of people to use to hurt the opposing party, to eliminate competition, to be able to push whatever policies you want. And in a lot of cases, they say there's three reasons for it.

Some of them they do it because it's bipartisan. Both sides are like, I think this is fair. It's okay. It's fair for everybody. Some are partisan. And some of them are like, look, whether you care for it or not, we're doing this anyway.

So this is called chaos. Newsom responds at Trump yesterday multiple times. I think, is this the clip about him talking about, but this is different, Rob. This is, oh, is this it?

Yeah, this is where he says fight and fire. Okay, go for it, Rob. Go ahead.

Hey, President Trump, it's time to stand down. It's time to make another phone call to Greg Abbott. This time, instead of calling him and telling him you're quote unquote entitled to five congressional seats, it's time to tell him to stand down. It's time to recognize that democracy is at risk. It's time to, dare I say, do the right thing. Dare I say. See how that feels for you doing the right thing.

If you don't, California will neutralize anything you do in the state of Texas. California will continue to punch above its weight. We believe in democracy. We believe in the enduring values of our founding fathers. Two hundred and forty nine years. We're not going to sit back passively.

You can pause it right there Rob. So that was yesterday. Then there's another one. He puts a second threat, which Rob, if you can go to California will fight fire.

Fire is probably not the metaphor that Gavin Newsom wanted.

That's true.

That's a good idea. So Rob, go to go to X real quick. So if you go to X right there, that's his last one. Tick tock, Donald, Texas governor demands, California governor demands Texas redistributing push threatens ballot measure. So that's the second one.

Now, before I go into anything else, I'm gonna pause here. Tom, I'm gonna come to you here. What are your thoughts with everything that's going on with redistricting and gerrymandering? I have a bunch of other thoughts on this, why this is so important, but what are your thoughts on this, Tom?

Well, welcome to the sausage-making that is American politics. You have right now Gavin Newsom using it to step up and do a peer leadership, a peer presidential, and to do this to put himself in the spotlight. California was already doing it. California Democrats were already moving and Schiff was worried about it because of what was happening in San Diego and Orange County.

And if we were to look at how San Diego and Orange County voted in the presidential election, you can see, and the central states, just get all of them, the California district map, blue-red for the 2024 election, and you'll see California was already on red alert because they're entitled, yeah, see, take a look at what was happening here. The entitlement that the Democrats felt in California was already under threat.

No, Rob, go on that one right there, right there. Watch this. Look at the last 20, look at the last four years, Vinny. So red is Republican, blue is Democrat. Look what's happened the last four years. Go ahead, Tom.

Perfect. And so the Dems were already in red alert saying, what are we going to do about this? Because their concern was Orange County and San Diego going red, their concern was like, wow, no, wait, wait, wait, we got real areas here. We need to redistrict these because we can neutralize the 54% red by just moving it around. Gerrymandering. They were already going to do it. Then Texas, you know, had its moment and everything, and that became very public as they ran off

so that they didn't have to vote and everything, abdicating their responsibility. And now Gavin Newsom says, we will fight fire with fire. And I've already said that's the wrong thing he should be saying, but he's already getting ready to do because of that, what he's already accusing the other side of doing, but they're both doing it. And in my view, this gets a little crazy because both sides can be accused of putting their thumb on the scale. Both sides can be accused of doing this and this isn't

where the fight should be. I think the fight should be over issues. I think Newsom...

There's a problem there, Tom. You know what the problem is? There is no federal jurisdiction on gerrymandering.

That's exactly right, which means... It's state by state.

Did you understand this? Like Vinny, they can... both states can do this forever and the government has no say in it.

Nothing.

That's not right though.

It's not about that's not right. They build it this way and this Elbridge, Jerry figured it out and others said, well listen, if he can do it, I'm gonna do it. Yeah, of course. So you essentially prevent the other side of winning your state in a long time. Like it becomes mathematically impossible for you to win.

And by the way, the Dems like to talk about threat to democracy. What about those areas and around the earmuffs that now feel underrepresented? They can't win. They can't get the guy elected. So you have a community that 60% wants to elect somebody, but they are manipulated with other voters,

so now their 60% becomes 42%. Do you see what happens? They keep diluting it, it's like water. Here's hot water, and they just keep diluting it with ice from other areas. So the bad part of gerrymandering is Texas has to do it

to block what California's doing, and that is the order that it's happening. It's not Texas instigating right now. This was California was already starting it because the California Dems led by Schiff and Newsom were like, hey man, we got to do something.

The reds coming.

So redlining, gerrymandering, redistricting, this whole conversation is coming up. I think I remember learning about this like in eighth grade. So what happens is this, every 10 years they do a census. So Vinny you've been sort of on the move on what's going on, what illegal immigrants coming through because the census is more people, more districts. What's going on here? So every 10 years

they do a census and where they end up are in certain districts. So every congressman or congresswoman has their district, their quote unquote neighborhood that they're representing. So gerrymandering, imagine we have a pizza party. We order a pizza. You're with me. And typically, all right, I get a slice. PBD gets a slice. You get a slice. Rob, obviously he's going to get two slices. Tom gets a half

a slice. He's low carb, but now it's redistricting and gerrymandering is like, I'll take my slice. I'll take some of your pepperoni. I'm going to take the mushrooms off Tom's pizza. I'm going to throw in some crust. You're like, what happened to my slice, buddy? That's exactly what's going on here. Rather than everybody getting a slice, redlining is like certain people can't even get a slice. F you, F you, you're cool, you can eat. And then redistricting and everything that's going on here

is basically throwing pepperoni, throwing mushrooms around. The point is this, it's ugly, it's messy, it's musical chairs with your votes and everybody gets a seat in this world. Are they ever going to change, like is there any way to change this legally?

So here's the problem with this. So I looked up to see how often you can gerrymander. How often you can redistrict.

That's what my next question was going to be.

So when you get the census every 10 years, 2020, they give the new census. Some states you can only gerrymered or redistrict once a decade. And it's like six states. North Carolina is one of them. And it's a few states that you can do it only once every 10 years. Once you do it stays like that for 10 years. Okay. And of course there has to be a vote and bipartisan both sides have to agree to it. Some states yeah right there you see North Carolina can only do it once. Some states, you can do it as many times as you want, Vinny.

There's no jurisdiction on how often you can do it. You can gerrymander two times, three times. Again, there is no federal jurisdiction on this of what can happen with it. Now, the problem with this is the following. Here's California. California's got 52 representatives.

Out of the 52 representatives, you know how many of them are Democrats? 40? 43 are Democrats. Oh, damn. Nine are Republicans. 83.7% of California is Democrats.

And then you got the 17%. He's threatening Newsom to take it from 17 to 8 is what he's threatening to do. He being Newsom. Newsom to take it from 17 to 8 is what he's threatening to do. He being Newsom. Newsom with Republicans. Because if, imagine you got a Jasmine Crockett that may lose her job, which is what just happened right now, she literally may lose her job.

There may be a Republican representative that's got a lot of voice in California that's annoying to people like Newsom, who may also lose his or her job because of what Newsom could do. Then Pritzker goes on, Kristen, what's her name?

Kristen Welker.

Kristen Welker. From MSNBC. And Kristen Welker as well as Stephen Colbert. Both call him out. Both of them call him out. Oh really?

Oh of course.

By the way, he looks a little skinnier. Watch this here. Go ahead.

Go ahead. Look, sticking on your state's map, every major group that grades the fairness of congressional maps gives your state an F. F. Common cause and nonpartisan government watchdog even says your map, and I'm going to quote, represents a nearly perfect model for everything that can go wrong with redistricting. And I guess the question is, you talk about preserving democracy. How do you preserve democracy if you're using the same tactics that you've criticized Texas

Republicans for?

But as I say, what they're talking about is a distraction. The reality is that the violation of people's voting rights is what Texas is attempting to do. That's what's wrong with their efforts right now. And the fact that the president of the United States knows it and nevertheless is asking them to do it.

Let's see if she has a follow up question.

That is what's wrong with what we're seeing right now. Democracy is at stake and these Texas Democrats are standing up to what the GOP is.

You know she has not followed.

This is JB Pritzker doing his Kamala Harris impersonation.

Do you know what his number is?

For Illinois?

Illinois. Illinois is 84% Democrats, 16-15% Republicans. They have a monopoly on this conversation here. California's got a monopoly. Illinois's got a monopoly. But some uh, Illinois's got a monopoly. But some people on the Republican side also have monopolies.

It's not like this is just a thing that's going on on the left. It's something that goes on on both sides. But this conversation's leading to Florida jumping in. And Florida says, look, if you guys are doing it, we may jump in as well. Now, Florida's saying, you know, it, it, it, story comes out with Axios. Florida looks to join Trump's redistricting push.

Rob, I don't know if you have this video or not. Florida jumps in. Florida House Speaker Daniel Perez announced last week he will create a select committee to consider drafting a new congressional map aligning with President Trump's call for decade redistricting with Governor Ron DeSantis supporting the effort.

Is this it, Rob? Go for it. Yes Yes this is DeSantis talking about the voter flop

here in Florida since 2020. Go ahead. If you had to put a number on and how many seats do you think Republicans might pick up if in fact there was fair

redistricting? I don't know because I think Florida our Constitution limits you know you can't draw snake districts in Florida. They got to be normal shape compact. I think it's great. But I will tell you this. When I got elected governor in 2018, there were 300,000 more registered Democrats than

Republicans. Today, there are 1.3 million more registered Republicans than Democrats.

The state has grown by many millions of people. Got Gotta give him credit on what he's done with that. So Tom, I'll give you the final thoughts on this year before we move on to the next

story. I think Florida's got a sensible Constitution that says let's not be ridiculous. I think that's what governor just said. And so I think either we need a federal control or we need the states to voluntarily do this, but guess what? The home of political corruption, the OG of political corruption has been Chicago and Illinois. If you just go look up the history of America in elections, Mayor Daley and the machine

that was there in corruption, and it would represent upsetting the apple cart and just redrawing everything. But I think what people fail to see, the screaming blue states that are talking about this, Pat, are losing citizens. And they're gonna lose representatives

and they're gonna lose electoral votes anyway. And so the people that are crying are the people that are losing citizens by their own policies. And I think America needs to look at that. Let's take a look at where people are moving to.

Got it, okay, sounds good. There you have it. So we'll see what happened there next I want to go to is Elon Musk and Sam Altman they engage in a fierce war of words on X all you need to know so Elon Threatens to sue Apple Rob if you have this one here Elon threatens to sue Apple Apple is behaving in a manner that makes it impossible for any AI company besides OpenAI to reach number one in the App Store, which is an unequivocal anti-trust violation.

XAI will take immediate legal action. Now here's a reader's added content. Rob, what's the reader saying just one month ago on July 18th? Perplexly reached number one overall on India's App Store. January 2025, DeepSeek reached number one overall on App Store. Both of these occurred over after the OpenAI Apple partnership announced on June 10th of

2024. So maybe there's a correlation between the two. So then Altman responds. And here's what Altman has to say about what's going on because this is the war This is a real war going on right now. That's the AI war and they know Who the most powerful person apparently is whoever they're suing which is who Apple Apple Apple controls? who's getting the love who's getting the traffic who's getting all of it going to him and

Sam Alton comes out and says wait a minute. You keep coming after us But how about the fact that do you see this one here Sam Althman comes out and says, wait a minute, you keep coming after us, but how about the fact that, do you see this one here? Sam Althman. This is a remarkable claim given that what I heard alleged that Elon does to manipulate X to benefit himself and his own companies and harm his competitors and people he doesn't like.

So Sam is coming back and saying, wait a minute, you bought X and everything favors you Musk You got three million views on your bullshit post you liar far more than I received on many of mine Despite me having 50 times your follower count Will you sign an affidavit that you have never? Directed changes to the X algorithm in a way that has hurt your competitors or helped your own companies I will apologize if so the deal on respond back to that? I did not see a response. Okay. So obviously there's a back and forth going between these two guys and it's a true

war, it's a true fight that's taking place. People are watching it firsthand on what's

going on here. Adam, what are your thoughts on the story? So, Brace for Impact, this is going to be the tech overlords who are going to be running our lives for the next not four, not 10, not 20, 40 years. Remember the, the, the tweet that Elon Musk said about Donald Trump. He goes, listen, you got him for another three and a half years. You're going to have me for another 40 years. By the way, Sam Altman and Chad, GBT and Gronk and Elon are going, this might be the tech overlords for the next 400 years.

It's pretty scary. As far as their personal relationships, forget about the companies, forget about what they're doing with AI. This is personal, this is competitive, and this is going to get ugly and nasty. Sam Altman is number one in terms of AI. Why? Chat GPT, chat GPT.

Meanwhile, Elon Musk is running some sort of a Nazi propaganda machine over there on Grok. Not my opinion. I pronounce it Grok, not Gronk. All right, there we go right there. But the thing is this, Elon is not used to being number five. He's suing him because Grok is number five on the App

Store. ChatGPT is number one. There's a couple other companies that I guess are above Grok in there, but Elon is obviously competitive and he's not used to not being number one, not number two, not number three, number five in this regard.

So they've had a few mistakes with Grok that's been public. And it's a few royally big mistakes.

Big time.

And they've been glitching like crazy. And listen, we all saw the story about the Nazism. Listen, I use chap GPT for this reason. I get enough hate comments on YouTube. I don't need to go to Grok to be reminded about how hateful people are. But the reality is this, Sam Altman is number one in the AI world and Elon is fighting for his place at the table. We're going to see how nasty this thing's going to get. Last point, this whole Apple being sort of the

guard of what's able to go on. Do you remember in 2020 who sued Apple for what they were doing with the App Store? Remember it was a company called Epic. They're the owners or company that does Fortnite. Remember they were suing Apple over the 30%.

There it is right there. What you can charge on the App Store. Apple is the tech overlord and everyone's trying to become number one on Apple on the App Store. And right now it's Sam Altman and Elon is just sort of crying like Justin Timberlake

crying a river.

I agree with what Adam said about the tech bros. And right now the tech bros are probably happy to see Sam Altman and Elon Elon fighting. You wanna know why? Because Meta and Google, you know, what have they been doing? No, they've been completely innocent. They don't do shadow bands of content they don't like. They don't do things and push people back on Vax and then completely suppress your video.

They didn't suppress the laptop story on Hunter Biden. They didn't move political things and weight them differently they didn't manipulate the The teenage girls on meta and causing them to see more stuff that was actually harmful to them. They knew what it was doing

No, no

They've never done that Google has never modified ad weights on Adsense or let things show up differently Never never the tech bros haven't done this. So what Elon Musk is doing, he's gerry... what did he gerrymander some outcomes for his own? Maybe he did, maybe he did, and maybe Altman is saying sign an affidavit! But everybody else has gerrymandered results in tech. That is the danger of tech, and that's why tech needs competition to keep it honest because you look at this this happens all

Across the board even to the point of people getting really harmed was we look back when the tech bros were taking their cues

Yeah, the federal government and and you know, it's interesting while we're talking about this. You know who just bought a Company from Google who's a 434 35 billion. Rob, do you have that story? I don't know if you guys heard this or not.

Oh, is this a story where they're attempting to buy it? Did they actually buy it for $30 billion?

They're attempting to buy, AI startup Perplexity offers to buy Google's Chrome browser for $34.5 billion. You know Chrome?

They use Chrome.

Perplexity is buying, wanting to buy Google's Chrome for $34.5 billion. Here's the issue I got with this is, why is Google selling? Why do you need to sell? Why would you sell?

Pending antitrust decision where they're going to be forced to give up AdSense or Chrome.

So it's one of the two, so if I have to give up one of the two, I'm going to sell the Chrome browser to Perplexity? So, you can't come for me on Monopoly and Antitrust and all the other items?

Or maybe it's not being offered. Perplexity is just saying, hey, the federal government are going to cause you to sell something, Pat. I'll tell you what, I'll offer you $30 billion for Chrome. Let me ask you a question. this is an offer that was made without Google being aware of this offer. Was it a knock at the door? I think it could be a knock at the door offer.

It's like, hey, yeah, I don't, I don't think Google went out and got a banker on that.

A $34 billion knock on the door.

Perplexity and AI startup made an unsolicited offer to buy Google's Chrome for $34.5 billion with his chief executive, Arvandes, stating in a letter to Pichai, chief executive of Google parent company Alphabet, that the offer was designed to satisfy an antitrust remedy in highest public interest by placing Chrome with a capable independent operator. The bid comes as Judge Amit Mata, U.S. District Ruling, expected as early as this week could face Google to sell Chrome to reduce its dominance and the internet search perplexity value that 18 billion has backing from outside investors for the potential deal,

according to Jesse Dyer, a spokesperson. The Justice Department has pushed for Google to divest Chrome, arguing that Google's monopoly controlling about 90% of the search market requires forceful antitrust changes to foster competition with David

Dahlquist the government's lead litigator stating this courts Remedy should be forward-looking and not ignore what's on the horizon and Google is using the same strategy That they did for search and now applying it to Gemini Wow Unbelievable, but so what a what a brilliant move Tom, right? If you think about it, it's like hey We know you're getting pressure on antitrust. Let us just make an offer without anybody knowing now it's public So the government said well, wait a minute. We have an offer on the table from perplexity and they're qualified

So you have something that you're dealing with? That's right

And the government can say well, maybe you should take that cuz I'm breaking you up. Who do you think could be potential other buys outside of them? Well it's very very interesting because everybody's looking for a dance partner and the odd man out is Apple. What is Meta doing? They're grabbing everybody's people for the super intelligence lab. That's their play. They've been stealing guys from Apple. Well we're not really going to do things at Apple so tell you what I'll take ten million dollars worth of stock that could be worth $100 million.

That's how those big offers have been calculated. So you have Meta trying to get a place. Google is betting on Gemini and is sitting there with its ass in court, waiting to be broke up like this. Autopilot is already over there at Microsoft. And by the way, if you're scoring at home, Microsoft and NVIDIA are now 15% of the S&P 500, Pat.

Oof, that's a little overweight there, but I can do it. Then you get NVIDIA making the chips for AI. Remember, this is an AI war going on. And so, and then you got OpenAI which had GBT by themselves. So you see how these armies are being formed?

And so perplexity needs a broadcast mechanism. And so it's gonna go get Chrome. Google has to get broken by the government. They don't wanna do it, but they gotta sell something to somebody. They're gonna be forced to.

And Google's got Gemini and Meta stealing every engineer that's not nailed down to go for super intelligence.

So I just typed that list right now. It says open AI, potentially Apollo, global management, Yahoo, and maybe DuckDuckGo. DuckDuckGo's express long-term interest in acquiring Chrome. But DuckDuckGo, you're going to be able to raise that kind of money? I don't know about that.

If they are, good for them, but maybe just conversation there.

Which one do you use? You got Gemini, ChatGPT, Perplexity, you got DeepSea, you got some dude named Claude out there that's giving you information in French. I honestly, I do chat GBT first and then I do Grok just to see what like how different

it is. I don't know if I use Google at all.

I once in a blue moon.

I don't know if I use Google at all.

Once in a blue moon.

I think Google for me is less than 5%.

I'm still using Yahoo. I use perplexity first to get the deep search and then I compare with chat GBT and Gemini

got it okay sounds good all right let's get to the next story here give me one second uh Rob what was it that we had one moment okay let's talk about DC takeover what's going on with uh uh uh our capital trump takes extraordinary action to crush bloodshed and vitium in DC by seizing control of local police and unleash a National Guard. By the way, I want to show you guys a clip by Morning Joe after this one here. So here's President Trump talking about what's going on in DC.

Go ahead, Rob.

I'm announcing a historic action to rescue our nation's capital from crime, bloodshed, bedlam, and squalor, and worse. This is Liberation Day in D.C., and we're going to take our capital back. We're taking it back under the authorities vested in me as the President of the United States. I'm officially invoking Section 740 of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act.

You know what that is?

No.

And placing the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department under direct federal control. And you'll be meeting the people that will be directly involved with that. Very good people, but they're tough and they

know what's happening and they've done it before in addition I'm deploying the National Guard to help re-establish law order of public safety in Washington DC and they're going to be allowed to do

their job. Okay so watch this judge Pirro who is now on there Rob I don't know if you have that clip. A young kid tries to call her out saying, hey, the numbers have been better. Is this that one, Rob?

I'm sorry, this is her warning young punks. Give me one second.

Yeah, there's another one where a young person jumps in and says something. She grabs a mic and comes on the side and and I explained this to that person explained that this person uh uh she goes after it and says a lot of things now by the way Hexhead comes in and supports the decision of course with what the president's doing we've mobilized the National Guard and have others specialized units ready to address the DC crime here's here he is go ahead Rob.

Your direction this morning we've mobilized the DC National Guard. It'll be operationalized by the Secretary of the Army, Dan Driscoll, through the DC Guard. You will see them flowing into the streets of Washington in the coming week. At your direction as well, sir, there are other units we are prepared to bring in. Other National Guard units, other specialized units, they will be strong, they will be tough, and they will stand with their law enforcement partners.

This is nothing new for DOD. As the president noted, at the border, we've got 10,000 troops down there who've been operating in defense cooperation areas, defense zones, where there's zero, zero illegal crossings because of troops on strikers scanning the border.

We've been protecting other people's borders for 20 years. It's about time we protect our own. And we're working with ICE and CBP. In Los Angeles, we did the same thing. We're working with the California National Guard.

So when you're seeing what's happening here, a lot of the people on the left are calling this authoritarian and what they're doing. However, Morning Joe had to read a text from one of his friends that lives in DC. And not only does he read the text, but at the same time, while he's going through it, he himself tells them what it was like when he was working in DC.

Watch this here. Go ahead. I want to read you a text from a someone who I won't say their name but they're very liberal and he says this may sound controversial but I'm not totally opposed to Trump's National Guard move in DC I know he's doing it for politics but crime remains rampant I've had too many friends carjacked, shot at. None of us will walk more than three blocks after 8 p.m.

Thirteen-year-olds are committing many of these crimes. Quite a change from a decade ago when things were much calmer. Well, that actually sounds like the D.C. that I lived in when I lived a block behind the Supreme Court and you know every three days some one of my neighbors was

getting a gunpoint I mean there has been a crime problem in DC and I want to I

want to read you it's pretty bad when you got the other side supporting what's going on there Vinny what are your thoughts on this story well first of all

if if the mayor of DC and the chief of police did their jobs, this wouldn't be happening. And I love the argument of like, 2024 was one of the highest murder rates was in Washington DC. Yes, the numbers are finally coming down as if that's an excuse. This year there's been at least 100 murders and you're seeing this tree both and they're attacking people that are working in Washington.

And there was a clip yesterday where they're talking to the mayor and the chief of police who is I think her name is Pamela Smith I believe and they asked her about it like so now what's the chain of command? Pambandi who? and she goes what is that what does that mean? The chief of the chief of police in Washington Rob if you can find it look she doesn't know what the chain of command is look Look at this just real quick.

And then the mayor has to jump in.

What does that mean?

She has to leave.

So at the executive order is clear.

The president has requested MPD services and our home rule charter outlines the process.

The president designated Attorney General Bondi.

Bondi is the one that's going to be in charge of the executive order.

So the executive order is clear. MPD services and our home rule charter outlines the process. The president designated Attorney General Bondi as his proxy to request services through

me. So Rob, the chief of police doesn't know what the word chain of command is, which is not a good thing. But then yesterday, Rob, I don't think you're going to be able to find it because I had to watch the whole CNN episode. Yes, guys, I watched the whole CNN thing.

They did a poll on Abby Phillips Show that the people who live in DC, Pat, they asked them if they thought crime was low, moderate, or extreme. 91% of the poll said it was moderate to extreme, okay? And I can care less, like I said,

about the numbers of 2024 and good, good that they're coming down. It doesn't mean that they're gone. And then Rob, I sent you this clip on, um, on slack. Simone Sanders, the girl that took over, um, our friend, uh, joy read spot. She was asked on Joe Scarborough and she thinks more police are safer on the streets. You're not going to believe she said as a black woman, she doesn't think so.

Can you play this clip, Rob? You don't think more police make streets safer?

No, Joe, I'm a black woman in America. I do not always think that more police make streets safer.

She could just end the conversation there.

You don't see a police officer on every corner, but you don't feel unsafe. So what is it about talking about places like Southeast DC, right? Ward 8, if you you will that people say well we need more officers to make us safe I think we have to rethink what safety means in America this is the

defund the love to know how many times you don't go out on one in her life

exactly what safety means in America I start there I love that you I love that you said that so wait what she's saying as a black woman in America more cops it doesn't make any sense and by the the way, just FYI for everybody out there that's just, you know, they're just reading headlines and stuff. This is a 30 day plan. This is a 30 day, see what's going on.

And just yesterday they arrested almost 25 people. They took a bunch of guns off the street. Okay. And remember when we talked about the tariffs, everybody was tripping out time. And what do we say let him cook let it happen okay we need drastic times to meet drastic measures okay and then on top of that that the the White House unveiled a sweeping plan to address the homelessness in DC okay

they're gonna be physically going up to people that are in encampments okay and they're gonna tell them listen they're gonna offer them shelter and services

and if not they're gonna enforce the law Bron, can you play this clip?

The police department, with the support of the new federal agencies who have been surging on the streets of the District of Columbia, are going to enforce the laws that are already on the books here in Washington, D.C. For far too long, these laws have been completely ignored and the homelessness problem has ravaged the city. So DC code 22-1307 and DC municipal regulation 24-100 give the Metropolitan Police Department the authority to take action when it comes to homeless encampments.

So homeless individuals will be given the option to leave their encampment, to be taken to a homeless shelter, to be offered addiction or mental health services, and if they refuse, they will be susceptible to fines or to jail time.

Okay, Rod, you can stop it. You know what I love, Pat? Enough, like, people just talk. This is not a dictator. This is not authoritarianism. It's in the law. They are stating the law and talk, the left just has to go opposite enough is enough we just got back from LA it looked like a third world country and that my heart goes out guys I get emotional sometimes when I talk to them and I give them money and stuff and I hate when people are like we're gonna give it a money what are

they gonna but they're gonna just buy drugs I'm like they're not gonna invest in the S&P 500 all right I'm not stupid I'm not stupid. I'm not stupid. You are correct, sir. But Tommy, here's my thing. Help them. They're offering. I'm like, hey, listen, you can't be here. We're gonna put you in a shelter. We're gonna try to get you off drugs. And if you say no, that's it. We're gonna freaking lock your ass up. Enough is enough. I love it.

He's not going after crime, Tom. He's gonna clean up the streets. some receipts to go with your passion. Give it. Do you know when the act, the District of Columbia Home Rule Act started? When? December 24th, 1973, it was put in place after unrest and the federal government had small militias, not militia just means a small group of soldiers that were providing security around the district. Why? Because the president of soldiers that were providing security around the district. Why?

Because the president of France may show up and do a speech so they made sure there was security in the district. Well things were starting to get out of control so they said stop. We want to, and there's also residents here, so on December 24th 1973 they passed the District Columbia Home Rule Act to give them the ability to quote, limited self autonomy. And they inserted section 740 that said,

but if you get out of hand, we the government who have been governing this since way back when, when they burned down the White House, when the British burned down the White House and it was attacked, it was the military protecting the city.

And in 1973, December 24th, this part I'm not sure about but I think Santa Claus got sleigh jacked and so they said we got to do this but December 24th, 73 is when it happened. They put this and they put section 740 in there so for everybody that's saying President Trump is the authoritarian, no he's not. They're opening this up and saying crime is out of control, we have a provision here that if you couldn't get your squat together and take care of the city with your own police force and governance, we were going to step back in because we ran the place for 154 years before we put this

act in place and give you the ability to govern the citizens that lived in the little suburbs that were close in. So I think everybody that's trying to make this political about authoritarianism, once you go back and read the act and look at why it was created, where it was created, and then look at Joe Scarborough, no friend of Trump, saying, yeah, it was pretty bad where I lived and I was only a block behind

the Supreme Court. Adam. Well, defend the police, don't defund the police. I know we had a little play on words last episode, but Trump came out and when he first came out, he said, we're gonna be the party of law and order. And guess what? I alone can fix it.

Do you remember that? And I remember 10 years ago and being like, what a narcissist, you alone can fix it, Trump, Donald Trump, 2025, you alone, please fix it, please. Because the last thing we need is our capital of the United States, Washington DC, turning into a ghost zombie land full of homeless drug addicts.

And I'm just talking about the Congress people. So let's clean this act up. Do you remember what happened in New York City in the nineties? We had a guy named Rudy Giuliani and he cleaned up the streets. He cleaned up the mafia. He basically, what was it? The what do you use to stop the mob? Was it the Rico? Rico Suave. Hey Rico. And that's what started with a long Chorman went inland. There

you go. And well that needs to be done in DC. If there's one city we need in America that doesn't look like an absolute hellhole it might as well be the capital United States. I said this last episode because we've spent a lot of time in DC it suits by day, sirens by night. Anyone you talk to goes oh no no no when the Sun sets get the hell out of here don't walk around DC. Did you see what Dana Batch said Pat while complaining about Trump cleaning up DC, Dana Batchtett said the most violent day was January 6th. That was her, that was

her, can you play, it's really very very short. Look at she's reading.

You know that the most violent moment in recent history in DC was January 6th. That's what she's worried about. And it was an attack on the United States Capitol by a lot of people who were doing it in the name of Donald Trump

And it included the people who were hurt included members of one

Well, the reality of it is she can say that all she wants a report just came from Western Journal ma'am It's long pastime ex-capitol chief police Hits Pelosi with three damning memories after she criticized Trump on DC National Guard use okay, Nancy Pelosi

Donald Trump delayed deploying the National Guard on January 6 when our capital was under violent attack and Lives were at stake now. He's activating DC guard to distract his incompetent mishandling of tariffs Healthcare education immigration just to name a few blunders. And Chief Steven Sund responds. Watch this, Vinny. Ma'am, it's long past time, to be honest with American people, on January 3rd, I requested

National Guard assistance, but your sergeant at arms denied it. Under federal law, I was prohibited from calling them in without specific approval the same day Carol Corbin at the Pentagon offered National Guard support, but I was forced to decline because I lacked the legal authority.

On January 6th, while the Capitol was under attack and despite my repeated calls, your Sergeant at Arms again denied my urgent request for over 70 agonizing minutes, running it up the chain for your approval. When I needed assistance

It was denied yet when it suited you you ordered fencing top with concertina wire bar bar and Surrounded the capital with thousands of armed National Guard troops. I mean this is the part about how Be patient time is gonna reveal truth a lot of people are getting exposed with things that are going on right now. And I love the fact that they're doing this right now in DC. There's no way in the world the capital, the capital that we live in of the greatest country

in the world should be unsafe. It should be the safest place in the world. For sure. And I'm glad they're working on making that happen. All right, let's get to the next story here. Next story I want to get to is Candace Owens slams Nick Fuentes for claiming she is coordinating with Elon Musk to attack him.

Call streamer, a sheltered theater kid. Rob, do you have a clip on this or is it a tweet?

So I have a tweet and then a few clips as well.

This is the original tweet from Candace.

All right so Nick says what full-blown coordinator attack on my credibility for the past week And then she says what laugh my ass off here. We go again guys Nick talk stretch about literally everyone claiming. They are frauds But when the very people he speaks about reply to him. He says it's some high-level coordinated attack Me coordinating with Elon Musk. Hello. I'll have you watch even a minute of my content didn't you say that I was working with Russia? Tonight he'll say defend me. they are trying to kill me. Meanwhile I'm being sued by President of France, the Tate brothers are actually facing a coordinated multi-state level attack from various countries, and none of us are cry victimhood. I maintain Nick Fuentes is

a sheltered theater kid who cries and lies pathologically. Alright so this

story, Adam go for it. Well welcome to Mean Girls Nazi edition with Nick Fuentes and Candace Owens. These two were never gonna get along. If you know anything about Nick Fuentes and how he feels about women and the blacks and loud-mouty black women, they were never gonna get along. And Candace, who was a very logical actor

until she got deathly stricken by the anti-Semitic bug, used to make a lot of sense. And now, one thing I can say about Candace, other than the anti-Semitism and the demonic stuff that she's doing, Actually a nice person. But one thing I will say is follow the patterns, follow the receipts with Candace.

She goes to a place, leaves after a few years, goes to a place, leaves after a few years, fights with somebody, leaves after a few years. These people don't play well with others. They're talented. They're smart. They have opinions.

They know how to galvanize their audience. They know how to entertain But they're not gonna be part of a team. There's no way that Candace and Nick Fuentes. We're gonna have a Happy Happy ending overall. It's almost like entertainers and rat beef. They're gonna shoot their shots. They're gonna do their thing What I want to know this will end what Harry ugly. That's what I want to know. What happened here the vibes are all out Rob Vinnie, what do you know about what happened here. That's what I want to know. What happened here? Who called who out? Rob, Vinny, what do you know about what happened here? Okay, so I mean in July when Candace was on the Tucker Carlson show she said the conversation was great. However, when it aired... This is after the Nick Fuentes

conversation. Yeah, and then Fuentes said he called Owens in anger cursing at her because she did a 180 in tone. This is what he's saying. And Candace later questioned what provoked the reaction. But then Nick on July 15th, he did a Rumble video and he said it was a failed hit job. And what it's coming down to, Pat, is he's saying what Nick is saying is he's been OG from day one. He's saying that Tucker, Candace, Milo, Charlie Kirk, a lot of this is stemming from their

support of not only, not all of them, but Israel that he's saying, cause Candice obviously is not pro Israel. But he's saying that they're backing or they're positive speaking of JD Vance. Cause he has a, and oh, and there's another thing, them claiming that he might be a Fed, not Candace, but the other ones are saying that he might be a Fed, he had receipts.

He's like, if I'm a Fed, how am I on the no-fly list? How am I not being able to fly? And then he does a thing where he shows, he Googled Peter Thiel, because this is all going back to Peter Thiel propping up JD Vance, the upcoming of JD Vance, how they're kind of going against Trump, but then he showed, Rob, I sent you

the clip, look at this.

And allegedly Peter Thiel was some sort of informant. This is right here, this is on Business Insider, tech millionaire Peter Thiel was an FBI informant. Like these are just facts.

On who? I don't know. I think he was on foreign. I think it was on something about foreign.

This was during the 2020 election.

Peter Thiel, let me go to, I want to read that story, Rapper. Peter Thiel wore many hats over the years. So-called founder of Trump, like a donor of cryptocurrency, runs on Democrat. But there is yet another face to Thiel, one that has remained secret until now. on the confidential human resource DHS Jonathan MoMA la base FBI agent was specialized in investigating political corruption of foreign influence campaign Charles Johnson a longtime associate deal and a notorious figure in a far-right movement that Thiel was subsidizing for decade told insider statement that

he helped recruit the billionaire as an informant by introducing to Buma a source with knowledge to the Relationship to the FBI whose identity is known to the insider But who insisted on anonymity corroborated Johnson's account telling the insider that Johnson brokered a relationship between Thiel and Buma. Buma, insider was able to confirm through an additional source that FBI had added Thiel to its former roster of registered informants.

Interesting.

So very interesting. So he's pissed. He was furious because mind you guys, I've watched the whole last two episodes, even a little bit last night, which was weird at the end of it, because, Bob, it's a kind of a longer clip. He says like, I'll sit down with Candice. We should hash it out. So it's like, it's kind of, kind of flip-flopping, but I think the, I think the good clip to play, Pat, would be the one where he's

talking about JD Vance and where he came from and Enchilada, you want to know why they're so mad about my show? Not even from last Friday, but from the week before that, I'll give you a little spoiler alert. It has everything to do with the vice president. We are living in house of cards right now. JD Vance went from being an unelected civilian in 2022, to a senator, to the vice president in 24, to within

four years, potentially the president of the United States. That is some serious house of cards shit. This is a guy that in six years has gone from never Trump author to potentially president of the United States. And he was empowered to get there by Peter Thiel, who designed the surveillance state itself by Elon Musk, the richest man in the world who owns the platform X and Tucker Carlson, who is maybe the most influential voice in Republican politics,

courtesy of Rupert Murdoch, his former boss, and Rebecca Mercer. And I'll show you how it all comes together at the end. I'm Zoe Barnes. What if there was a coup against the American government? What if there was a coup against the America First, MAGA movement by the deep state to usurp and subvert Donald Trump and install a deep state puppet?

A never Trump or Silicon Valley artifice who was nobody. And in six years, he'll be the heir apparent president from MAGA, president of the United States. And what if one guy stood against him? What if one guy who didn't take money from Peter Thiel? What if one guy who wasn't taking support from Silicon Valley, one guy who's paying attention and is skeptical,

what if one guy was calling that out? Well, he'd get hit with the Death Star laser.

That's what's happening to me.

I'm gonna give credit where credit's due, which I always do. He was the, Pat was the first one, and I know we've changed because of the debate and all that, it's not that we've changed, but Pat from the beginning was kind of like, I don't know about JD.

And now when somebody actually breaks it down from Pat being a nobody to the vice president, and guys, I don't know man, it's a, that's what he's saying. This is what Nick is saying about where the beef and why everybody's upset with him because he's calling this out. Do you believe him? I don't know, my opinion is that when people piece things together,

like connecting the dots, you start to go, okay, came from nowhere, Peter Thiel funded him, he is where he is now, by the way, the rise to fame, it's like Obama. Like Obama came out of nowhere, and it was just like, yes we can, and the change, and this and that and what happened he became the president like that yeah because people voted for him yeah of course but where did he come from like

you have a Nigeria obviously no no no no you're going to Trump no the difference is respectfully Obama didn't come out of nowhere he crushed his DNC speech in 04 correct exactly and it was known as the greatest speech whether you're black or white or brown or gay or straight or Republican or this. I don't believe in red states or blue states I believe in the United States. That was the day where you're like the greatest speech given in the last 40 years of Democrats was Obama and they're like this guy's gonna be the president. Easy they take him in and he becomes the president say so but to me with this case going back and forth

Ilan jumps in and supports

That he might be a fed

Okay, yeah, he calls Fuentes as a fed and then Fuentes responds. It says oh you're now in this as well and to give credit to Candace Candace has been critical of Ilan so to me. It's's kind of like, so maybe he doesn't know that part of it, but then saying, well maybe you are a Fed, but him and Milo had an exchange together where he's like, are you going on January 6th? Well you may want to show up, you have to show up, so why, are the Feds going to be there?

Feds are going to be there, so he's shown receipts, and remember guys, 12 years ago Milo was the guy that not 12 years ago. Yeah, probably 12 years ago Milo was a superstar my Milo would go on bill model was everywhere until some of the events that happened And I don't know. I don't know what I'm going back and forth There's a couple things that's just very weird on some of the interviews that are happening. I said a few years ago When the Alliance was being built and Elon, when Tucker went to X, and I said he made a great decision because Elon was retweeting, if you remember, his first 50 interviews or so, Elon retweeted.

And if a 200 million account person retweets you and you have one million followers, it really means that you have 201 million followers. I don't know if you understand what I just said right there. So what's more important, and if you remember Tucker, in the last two and a half years, he went from having a couple million followers. Do you know how many

followers Tucker has on X right now? Go look up Tucker's followers on X. I thought it was a brilliant move by Tucker to go there. We made an offer to him, but he went there. If you look up Tucker Carlson, I think he's at 12 million followers, 10 million followers. He's in the 16 and a half million followers. All because Elon kept retweeting this stuff and because he did the legwork of going to Russia, going to everywhere to do the interviews.

He wasn't waiting for people to come to him. So you gotta give him credit on that as well. But right now, it's very interesting what's going on here. It's very interesting how some of this is being handled. Some of them are, you know, taking it in a way where there's Israel involved, there's MAGA involved, it's Trump's fault, it's this, it's JD Vance, it's Peter Thiel, it's Elon,

establishment, anti-establishment. But a lot of our young guys, and I always look at our young guys when we're doing podcasts prep just to kind of hear what they're saying because I know they follow the stuff more. I run nine companies guys. I'm in meetings all day so I can't be glued to the screen seeing everything that's going on but we have researchers who are and the guys that were pro Candace and pro Tucker die hard die hard for the last two and a half years in the last

two weeks are becoming more nicknames. Yes. You know who I'm talking about. I don't want to give names. 100%. But I'm kind of like they were complete. They're like yeah I don't know he brought the receipts and he did this and he did that and you know the way he's doing it. Why are they targeting him now? Is it because he's not part of anybody? Because he's not getting money from anybody well, you know he wouldn't got money from P He wouldn't ask steel for money, but feel didn't give him money, and he's buttering all the all these conversations of what's going on But if it's the younger people that are paying attention to who's doing what everybody is playing The Avengers are many different ways, and there's like a massive war going on right now

It's a civil war going on right now with not necessarily Republican Party to be honest with you. The way I'll put it is there's a civil war going on right now with conservative influencers on X. I wouldn't even say it's the Republican Party. No. I would say it's conservative influencers on X because the search for Epstein has dropped 89% in the last three weeks.

There is no interest in Epstein anymore. The interest has dropped dramatically. And this is CNN telling you this. Go ahead, Rob.

At least the political point of view quickly turning into a dud of a story.

What am I talking about here?

Which is wild.

Which is wild. Where this has been for three weeks now. Exactly. Take a look here. story what am I talking about which is wild which is wild which is exactly take a look here Google searches for Epstein down 89% versus just three weeks ago falling through the floor it is no longer the top term searched along so

what's the point this is an X interest that led to Google and the power to X there was at one point it was the most trending 2.3 million people had used the word Epstein on X and obviously made it very trending so I think there's something going on on the Republican conservative MAGA America first debate on X that a lot of younger people are following and there was a little bit of a... And also for the people that was extremely cool to be anti-Israel in the weirdest way,

they are right now more, look, if I have to choose between Israel and Islam and Muslim and what they're doing to all these other places, I hate to say this, if it's between the two, I'm going Israel over that. And listen, all these guys, I've had them on. I'm in communication with many of these guys. I talk to most of them here.

Not all of them, most of them here. And I'll host Dave Smith. We've hosted Candace many times on election night. We've hosted you name them, many of these. And who knows? Maybe in the future we'll have Nick on as well to have a conversation with

them. But it's been a very interesting, specifically Vinny, I would say it's been a very interesting last three weeks. And Nick said it himself, from his mouth, he's on a generational run and right now, I don't care what anybody says, he is freaking on fire. You believe Nick though, I get a feeling that you believe Nick.

You know what it is, Pat? Because, okay, name the person that can't even be on YouTube, he can't be on YouTube because of the stuff that he says. They froze his bank account. I guess he had like $500,000 in the account. They froze him.

He's at the Capitol. He wasn't there. on the grounds where you can do it. And I'm just saying, and regardless of what that stat says, 89% down, if it's so not, it's a nothing burger they keep pushing, because they want us completely to forget about it, Pat. Why is Comer saying that Bill Clinton's a prime suspect,

and they're investigating. They're still digging deep and looking for people

to get into it. Yeah, we'll get there in a minute but Rob somebody told me that Nick did open up his potty mouth. Yes he did. What'd he do? Nick! What'd you have to see? Rob, did they edit this? Is this what you guys? This is the edited version. But what part is it? We can't play the whole four minutes can you go to the part where it's like you know PBD tells me whatever because I think Humberto or one of the guys show me that 10 seconds. While he's looking for it, with all due respect, and you got to give credit where credit's due, he goes crazy, he cusses at Candice, he goes after Charlie, he's no hold barred,

Milo, Tucker, he craps on all of them, and in that rage, whenever your name comes up he goes, and PBD, Patrick McDavid, PBD pockets, it's like the fire calms, and then he goes back. Look at this, look at this, look at this, look at this, look at this screenshot. Blade rap.

Blade.

I am America first. You are not. You're not even American. Who is? And to the extent that you are, you're a f****** traitor.

And Elon.

That's the last word on that.

No it's not.

Ask the show. Who is the Fed? Will the real federal agent please stand up? Who is it? Who's the real federal agent? Elon, Peter Thiel, J.D. Vance Tucker, and George Farmer,

the son of the head of the Alliance of Christians and Jews in the UK? Or the realest **** you know? Patrick Bette David said, why do you say the N-word? It's to show people I'm real. Why do you roll on the bed and do a show?

I'm as real as you can.

Here's my N-word, fire away.

Why do you say you're going to have hate sex with Kanis Owens?

Why do you say you're gonna have hate sex with Candace Owens? Why do you say that? You know it's crazy, you can pause it here. Here's the thing, that I, you know, of course he's passionate, he's 26, he's doing his thing. You know, if he would not use five words, they would play his clips on mainstream and would introduce him to a new audience. Nope.

Yes they would.

Yes, they would, Adam. Let me tell you, you're saying nope. You're saying nope. There's a lot of nopes you have to bite your tongue right now. When you said nope, Trump won't win in 2016. Nope, Trump won't win in 2024.

Nope, a lot of nopes have become yups.

Okay.

A lot of nopes have become yups. Okay. A lot of nopes. How much you want to bet Nick Fuentes is never going to be played on mainstream media. Don't do that to yourself. Don't do that to yourself. Okay. Listen, I had a $1 million PPD bet. Don't let me put it. Listen, it is more likely that mainstream is going to play his clips, if they haven't already, than Trump winning the Nobel Peace Prize. It is more likely that they're going to play his clips.

But the only thing he-

If they're going to do a hit job on him, yes, they'll play his clips.

But that's part of playing his clips. And by the way, guess what? Well, OK. No, no, it's not okay. What I mean? Okay a part of a part of it is he has to realize that He has play offense give you arguments have the receipts go do your thing all of that stuff But man, he has to have a quote like right underneath his iPad. I have met the enemy at his eye Alexander the great

He's his own enemy in certain areas Because you know as you're going up and you make enemies with everybody, you have to find ways to build some alliances. Yeah. You know, there is a... Not possible.

Huh?

What do you mean not possible? He has alliances. No, no, no. Hang on. Hang on. Let me just make my point. You can say whatever you want to say. But as you're going up

And you're moving up. This is sincere feedback to all of them. It's not even just Any one of them Dana just closed a 7.7 billion dollar deal with Paramount

Dana 20 years ago went to spike and gave them 10 million dollars to show UFC

Did you understand what I just said right there you go to spike?. I don't even know what Spike is. UFC goes to Spike or was. Can you tap on Spike UFC 10 million on Google. Spike UFC 10 million. If you go Spike UFC 10 million, I want to say he offered them 10 million bucks 20 years ago. Right there. Is that it? Yeah. Yeah. There goes UFC pitch ultimate fighter to several networks but none of our interest until spike TV came along however spike wouldn't air it until UFC paid the production cost of the Fertitta brothers and Dana White invested 10 million dollars to get the show on spike and now he just got 7.7 billion dollars over a

five-year deal I think it's five or years. I don't know what the number is I think it's seven years or five is one of the two how You gotta like if you're if your plan is long-term You need to You need to have a little bit of a better approach towards building not alliances, but

You know, yeah seven point seven over seven years years, 1.1 per year, yeah. You have to do a little bit of a better job building alliances. Dana build it with Trump. Imagine Dana without Trump. What if Trump doesn't support Dana? What if Dana didn't build that relationship?

He loses that opportunity. I just think a little bit of it, it's just a little bit of business sense. Like go read, out of all the political books you read read five business books Still only thing he reads five business books. I would give those five business book recommendations for him just to look at it from the perspective of What the upside could look like that's the only feedback I would give because all the other stuff and he's gonna do

He's a kind of guy like for me you couldn't tell me what to do I'm working at Bally's a guy named Fernando Lazo ends up becoming one of my groomsmen at my wedding. The singer? Yeah the singer. Love that guy. I come in at Bally's I just got out of the army you know how I talk? Hey what's up motherfuckers, and I'm like, finally one day for now, can I talk to you? He says yes. We don't know each other, you've just been working here for a week. I'm willing to bet you would sell two times the amount of memberships if you stop

saying the f-word. I said there's no way in the world you're right. And he says try it. I went 30 days. I'm like, that's frickin right. Because the clients that were maybe a little bit more, you know, certain Level of people they're like, yeah, I'm willing to entertain this guy Language matters, especially when you're that good of a communicator a great communicator doesn't need to add those words but to each his own it's a freedom of speech you do whatever you do and I I

We're we're not someone that has to sit there. You better do this or else not. I just think he's his own enemy sometimes and he can get out of his own way. Go ahead Adam. Well, word to the wise, stop saying the n-word. I mean that's pretty basic. You're saying that Nick Fuentes is going to be some sort of mainstream

darling allegedly. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, I'm sorry. No, I inserted the mainstream media needs enemies to play.

Perfect. He is the perfect enemy.

If he changes a bit of his language.

Well, uh, not a fan of the N word. I'm just going to go, I'm going to take a, I'm going to take a leap of faith here and say that most people are not now, just because I'm criticizing of that does not mean I don't think he's smart and capable and well read and a good communicator. That's all great, but he's also incredibly toxic. So, you know, risk versus reward, uh, does not play well with others, does not have friends. I know he has his crew, the gripers. I'm sure they'll

see this clip and come at me. It's all good. I'm not disparaging the man's character, how smart he is, how wise he is. I'm just saying a guy like this will never go mainstream in that capacity. Last thing, he talked about, I am America first. No, you're not bro.

Donald Trump is. Have a little respect. If there's anything that I could say about Donald Trump, he started this, he's MAGA, he's the movement. Nick Fuentes has been excommunicated from this movement since the day that Kanye brought him to Mar-a-Lago and Trump said, no, no, no, you're fired, you're gone. Since then, he brought up JD Vance.

Stop with this whole charade that it's this smoky room thing. He wrote a book about his real life story about his grandma and everything that raised him. This was not fabricated. He wasn't a, this wasn't Manchurian candidate. He was elected in 2022. He beat a Congressman named Tim Ryan and who was going to basically take Nancy Pelosi's place. JD stepped up Donald Trump, Jr. hand selected him after vetting the entire field and he won the election and

now we're about to say it's some big conspiracy. Sometimes if you want to play the conspiracy game, you can. Sometimes it's just he won elections and these are the consequences. Don't we say elections have consequences? JD Vance won. Nick Fuentes, smart guy, completely BS on his JD Vance narrative.

Tom, final words before we move on.

Final words. I'll give you some receipts on this to back up what's been talked about here in terms of mainstream media would love to have this guy absolutely love. I'll give you a super, super, super, super fast case study. 1994 Harold Howard Stern goes on E-network. E-network even said, we're taking a deep breath.

We hope this will work. He goes on E! It's very successful. He starts calling himself the king of all media. I spoke to producers and showrunners in LA, this is 94 to 96, I was getting my MBA at Pepperdine, and they told me, does Howard Stern realize that he would get paid four or five times what E! is paying him if he would just turn it down a little bit, just here and there, kind of like the five works comment. Then Clear Channel, he still the radio show, kept having to suspend him for decency things, and that kept it.

And finally, this one guy that gets Sirius and XM to merge together, then gives him the on Sirius XM. If you look at what Howard Stern made, Howard Stern would have made so much more, been over on mainstream, if he had just moved a little bit. There's the receipts in a case study. Nick Fuentes has got the same thing from a political angle.

If he would just move a little bit, they would pick him up and fly that flag.

What's the one thing they said about Howard Stern and his audience, if you remember that movie, Private Parts, they said about Howard Stern and his audience if you remember that movie Private Parts they said fun fact the people that love you listen to for an hour what's the most common reason they want to hear what you're going to say next. The people that hate you listen for an hour and a half to two hours. Why? The most common reason they want to hear what you're going to say next. Shock jocks

are a thing but shock jocks are not the real world. Yeah okay all right so let's go to the next story here. Next story I want to go to is Fed Governor remains maintains outlook for three interest cuts in 2025. Okay so three cuts now 2025 that's what they're saying? Yep they're saying three cuts in 2025. Let's read this here.

So Federal Reserve Governor Michelle Bauman, Vice Chair of Supervision, reiterated her projection of three 25 basis point interest rate cuts in 2025 despite the Federal Open Market Committee decision to maintain the benchmark federal funds rate at 4.25 to 4.5. She spoke at Kansas Bankers Association 2025 CEO Manager and Senior Management Summit in Colorado Springs, Colorado, emphasizing her dissent from July decision alongside Fed Governor Christopher Waller, marking the first dual dissent favoring cuts since 1993.

Bowman-Bastor stands on the signs of fragility in labor market conditions, stating economic conditions appear to be shifting, and as a result, we should reflect this shift in our policy decision. Tom.

Yep, this is the individual that I gave credit to, and I said, you know what? This is the first time in 32 years that we had dissenters, and she was right. And I commented at the time that I thought that that Weller, Waller excuse me, was saying it because he actually wanted to

be... Johnson Waller? Yeah, well he actually, no no, Christopher Waller, he actually wanted to be the next Powell and so I said well him dissenting you know okay but he's kind of campaigning but Michelle Bowman was absolutely I think Well within her rights and was correct about the dissent and now she's saying we're gonna get three cuts Which would be September 16 17th, October 29th and December 10th 25 25 25 that's what she's looking at

and by the way if you go look at CME CME which is the federal tracker of the federal board of governors and what they say at their speeches and stuff. Here we go. CME, FedTracker, just say FedTracker. Let's go take a look at where it is. Okay, 35 days, 3 hours and 36 minutes. They even have a countdown clock here, Pat. It's amazing. Now go down, just go down. And oh my goodness, what does that say at the top of that blue bar? Oh my gosh. 97.9% is that what that says?

97.9% chance that we're going to get a cut coming up here on the 16th, 17th of September of a quarter point. I think she's absolutely right. And she's out there pushing it because are seeing a little bit of unemployment. We're seeing things that make sense for the cut. And so I happen to be right there with Michelle Bowman and I think she's had the guts to stand up first time in 32 years. We had two governors actually stand up in dissent, although you get a discount while or a little bit because he's kind of lobbying to be the next Powell.

Interesting.

All right.

Did you hear who Scott Bestin said that Trump's considering reappointing?

Janet Yelling.

Yeah, that's kind of interesting. That's kind of interesting, isn't it? Very much so.

It's called a team of rivals.

Rob, can you play that clip?

By the way, good hair.

Look at that hair! There's a lot of talk about it. Chris Waller, Kevin Walsh, Kevin Hassett and so forth and other names.

You're casting a wide net. Very wide net. And as you know, more than more than anyone, the president has a very open mind. He even considered reappointing Janet Yellen. So we want to see what everyone's thinking. It's not ideological.

It's about economics. What's best for the American people, what's best for the economy. And as I talk to the candidates, I'm looking at three things, monetary policy, regulatory policy and the ability to run and revamp the organization, because it's really gotten bloated. And I think that this bloat puts its monetary independence at risk Well, you've said that

All right. There you go balance that he is entertaining Janet yelling now that could also be a misdirection that also could be something that they're trying to throw you off But I think Trump is a guy that would actually entertain a Janet Yellen. I actually think he would entertain it I think Trump's the guy that would actually entertain Janet Yellen. I actually think he would entertain her. I think Trump's the guy that would be open to it.

Sure. And I think in team of rivals, you have to think about things. A friend of mine from inside the administration said that Besant's hat wasn't thrown into the ring by Besant. Besant's hat was thrown into the ring by Lutnick, who felt that he'd be a strong candidate. And then Lutnick kind of self-nominated and said, and if you need

somebody over at Treasury, I'd be glad to do it. So I think we've got a lot of really good people and a team of rivals. And that answer from Besant we just heard there, I thought was balance. And he's talking about the exact things the economy needs. This place is being run like a business now, and guess what? It's showing up in the results.

I gotta be honest with you, I'll go real quick. I think I'm very impressed with Scott Besant. He seems very capable. I mean, he's the one who allegedly got Elon Musk out of Doge. But let me take one quick angle right now. Don't look now, but this is the richest I've ever been. I'm assuming this is the richest

you've ever been. I'm assuming there's riches ever been. I know this is the richest you've ever been. Uh, inflation is down. The S and P 500 is at all time. High NASDAQ is at all time. High Dow is reaching all time records. Bitcoin at all time. High. Things are looking pretty darn nice. And you know, you have zero control of what the fed does with rate cuts. Zero goes up. Trump fires, pal, he gives hires yelling, whatever happens happens. But you do control your bank account. You do control how hard

you work, work, earn, save, invest, work, earn, save, invest, do it on rinse and repeat. Keep your costs low, stay the course. And here's the biggest thing. Tune out the noise. Three, four months ago, they thought the world was falling apart. Tariffs. Oh my God. Now we're at all time highs.

Donald Trump is sitting there laughing at everybody that thought the economy was going to tumble. And now take your money to the piggy bank, Vinny.

Yeah. I mean, look, it's again, three times, I don't know, Janet Yellen possibility, a lot of moving parts, but we'll see what's going to happen here with the store. Next door I want to go to is Trump defense taking 15% cut of Nvidia AMD chip sales to China. This is kind of weird, but he didn't ask for it. They offered it.

So if they offer you 15% what do you do? And that's going to come back into paying off the debt that you have a national, a national, you know, the national debt that you have. It's an interesting thing, but he's been asked about it. President Trump defends a deal requiring NVIDIA and advanced microchip devices, AMD, to pay US government 15% of their China sales revenue for export licensing.

And here's what he had to say. Go ahead Rob, but the h20 is obsolete You know, it's one of those things but it still has a market So I said listen I want 20% if I'm gonna prove this for you for the country for our country for the US. I don't want it myself You know every time I say like Like 747 I want I want yeah for the Air Force. Yeah So I just wanted so when I say I want 20 I want for the Air Force. So I just wanted. So when I say I want 20, I want for the country.

I only care about the country. I don't care about myself. And he said, would you make it 15? So we negotiate a little deal. So he's selling a essentially old chip that Huawei has a similar chip, a chip that does the same thing. And I said, good, if I'm going to give it to you, because they have a, you know, they

have a stopper, what we call a stopper. Not allowed to do it. It was strictly, it's really known as a restrictive covenant. And I said, if I'm going to do that, I want you to pay us as a country something because I'm giving you a release. I released them only from the H20. Now,

on the Blackwell, I think he's coming to see me again about that, but that will be an unenhanced version of the big one. Like, I don't know if you know it, we will sometimes sell

fighter jets to a country. Tom, pause right there. Tom, thoughts? You love this. So NVIDIA goes to the federal government and says, hey look, we sell a lot of different chips. And when he's talking about the H20, the H20 was a chip that was made for the Chinese market. And there's a whole lot of companies over there that use it for a lot of things. This isn't going to be something where the Chinese government is buying a thousand of them, 10,000 of them, 100,000 of them and running AI sims to spy on us. That's not where these are going to be used.

This is a bunch of Chinese companies doing it. And Jensen Wang goes to the government and says, hey, you know what? In the midst of this stuff, I can keep making these and I'm a US company. It says, is it okay if I sell these here and I've got this tariff on top of it? So I got this tariff thing. And so what Trump is basically saying, well, tell you what, I'll give you liberation to

actually sell it on the embargo, but instead of the tariff dollars, pay the federal government, pay us. And so guess what? It's left hand, right hand. And so Jensen says, great. Yeah, I guess we'll do that. And he said, now those Blackwell chips, the enhanced Blackwell chips, that's the super AI chip.

That's the Shelby Mustang of AI chips, or if you want to call it the... Yeah. I'm going to say something.

I held up from making a really bad, bad decision or something.

No, Tom! Go for it!

No, no, no. The Blackwell chip, the enhanced Blackwell chip is the super horsepower, big, beautiful chip that you don't want them to have.

And so this is basically, once again, I'll say it again, I said it a minute ago, but I'm going to say it again. Do it! It says, you know what? This place needs to be run like a business and it is being run like a business

Comfortable with me. So here's what I'm gonna ask you Tom, but you know where I'm going with this. Yes Where am I going with you going with this is that you open the floodgates for the next guy? for the next guy for the next guy which is who maybe doesn't like you and just wants to take your company from you but you know what this yeah so yeah 50% I'll do it listen that's like the Putin I would yes I would do you think I would negotiate the same way Trump is negotiating with Nvidia yes yes yeah I

would okay skip the tariff pay the country that's right but but but maybe tie it to a project so meaning this is the way I would do it. I would say the first, let's just say how much revenue you think you're going to get from this chip? AMD and NVIDIA. How much do you think you're going to get from the chip? Give the number.

That's going to be billions of dollars.

Give me a number. Let's just say it's $300 billion in revenue. I'm just making up a number. 15% is what? $45 billion. You know what I would say? Here's what I would say. As a form of project that we're working on right now, you guys are going to pay for the wall or you guys are going to pay for this or you guys are going to pay for the drone

or you guys are going to pay for that. It becomes a, where the audience says, okay, so that 15% for the government, you're going to pay half of the dome or you're gonna pay for half of the this Are you gonna have for that tie it to a project for it to be like, okay? They're gonna pay for this instead of the government's gonna be a business partner with you on some of this stuff because this is where you open up the yeah, cuz Alize and all this other stuff you're just doing you're giving the opposition a an argument for it and

I'm telling you I love the way it's being negotiated. I love the way it's done. I love what they're doing with it and the revenue that's going to be coming in for taxpayers and uh there's so many guys oh inflation's nothing happened tariffs nothing happened all up until now nothing by the way the China deal's not done the the India deal's not done, a lot of deals are still not done, and still inflation didn't skyrocket when everybody said, and yesterday was a record-breaking day for the stock market. Just two days ago we read an article, wow, you know, the market was affected.

Sad Monday.

Yesterday, up 500. What happened? What happened with it? Adam, thoughts on this? Well, Trump made the whole phrase quid pro quo famous, which is basically like, scratch my back, I'll scratch yours. You know, funny thing about my back is that whole thing. But the media will spin this story about Nvidia cutting a deal of 15% of their revenue for those exporting chips to China. And they're going to say Trump's enriching himself and Trump's just making money on this and I'm so glad that Trump was like, I'm not doing this for myself, I'm doing this for

the country. This is the art of the microchip deal. Now speaking of Nvidia, I think just two weeks ago, a week ago, they became the first company that reached $4 trillion market cap. And now look at this little earnings report here. Now they're about to hit 5 trillion.

Don't bet against Nvidia. So I'm totally in favor of what Trump is doing. He's basically saying you're making a ton of money. You're making a ton of money selling to China. Pay me, show me the money is what Trump's saying to Nvidia. By the way, Jensen Huang, if you put him on a lineup, I guarantee you 99% of Americans could not pick this guy up.

This guy is running the most profitable, biggest market cap company in the world. And nobody even knew his name or NVIDIA's name five years ago.

By the way, he's worth $158 billion today. He's doing okay. But you know what they say about starting a go fund me.

158 billion.

Save that money. Let's go to the next story. Let's go to the next story.

It's going to be a Stefano Ricci crocodile leather jacket.

They should go get this.

By the way, did you hear what he said the other day? It was in our panel. He goes, what is it that makes America the greatest country in the world when it comes to technology and everything? He goes, yeah, one thing, Donald Trump.

Do you remember when he said that? Yeah. goes, yeah, one thing, Donald Trump. Do you remember when he said that? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I mean, look, we're back to people not being afraid of talking and telling the truth, which is great.

This is the clip right here, I believe.

Yeah, go ahead.

The all in guys.

You see are America's unique advantages that other countries don't have.

America's unique advantage that no country

possibly have is President Trump.

There it is.

And let me explain why. One, on the first day of his administration, he realized the importance of AI and he realized the importance of energy. For the last, I don't know how many years, energy production was vilified if you guys remember. We can't create new industries without energy. You can't reshore manufacturing without energy. You can't sustain a brand new industry like artificial intelligence without energy. If we decide as a country the only thing we want is IP to be an IP only, a services only country,

then we don't need much energy. But if we want to produce things, something as vital as artificial intelligence, then we need energy. And so I'm just delighted to see pro,

to accelerate AI innovation.

This is where they jump cut to the picture of Trump being like yeah, that's great to see that. All right, let's get to the next door here Let's get to the next door here. Let's get to the next door here. So Vinnie you almost went into the story But I'm gonna get into one before we get into that one, which is real estate, California, FEMA Remember a few months ago right after the fire that happened the Palisades and Adam Carolla went up there and said here's what's gonna happen They're probably gonna take all these properties and they're gonna do this and they're gonna do that Well, let me tell you before we watch the video by Adam Carolla. I'm gonna read you what call phone call Grant Cardone just got okay

Grant Cartone was contacted by FEMA and can confirm the Pacific Palisades as a land grab Democrats are burying the homeowners in Structural upgrade costs. The crazy part is three months ago Adam Carolla predicted the same exact thing that was going to happen to LA would steal the land. He was right. California is a land grab. And by the way, before I get into this next thing, I just want you to see what Carolla said a few months ago and what's allegedly starting to happen in California. Go ahead, Rob.

And the other thing that people need to understand is everything here is on septic. Nothing is on a city sewer system. Every dwelling in Malibu has a separate septic system. And these houses in front, many of them were built in the 40s, in the 50s, in the 60s. And the codes were almost non-existent.

So they have septic systems that are in place now that are completely unacceptable in 2025 when they rebuild, not that they'll rebuild in 2025, 2055, when they rebuild. And they're gonna have to update the septic system, which means Coastal Commission, Ocean, Sierra Club, dig it all out.

And because of the proximity of the ocean, they're gonna have to build seawalls so that erosion won't take their septic system. So they're gonna be several million dollars into stuff that's buried in the ground. A sea wall, not above the ground, but a sea wall that's in the ground so that the storm and the erosion can't get to it. New septic system, I mean they may be three, four, five million dollars into it before

one piece of 2x4 is even put up in terms of framing the new house. Do you know how much bureaucracy, red tape and permits worth of nightmare this is going to be? Because regardless of whatever the mayor says, whatever the governor says about expediting this stuff, a septic system is a septic system. The code is the code.

The seawall is the seawall. And they're all going to have to have.

OK, Tom, thoughts on this? I think he's right. I went through this earthquake in 1994. I went up and I bought a house in Northridge and before I go you get a permit to extend the kitchen and I wanted to move one wall and they said we're not going to approve this unless you put a sheer wall on your back of your house. I said what are you talking about? This house was built like in 1965. The foundation is still here. It went through the earthquake in 1971, in 1973, in 1994, and now I'm sitting here in

2004, and they said, sorry. They were waiting for the first person to do the upgrade, and they did it. So they've been doing this all over the place on saying, oh, you need to do the upgrades. Adam Carolla is right about this. And the septic system is a system that you need. And so there will be reasonable things here, but he's pointing out that all the stuff's going to be upgraded. Meanwhile,

there's other ways that Grant Cardone's about to point out where they insist on upgrades that are designed to create expense so you'll abandon the land. Two different things. Adam Carolla talking about old septic systems to be upgraded with new ones. You want them to be safe. They're going to need a seawall. They can't have the house erode and fall down and have all that septic stuff go in the ocean. But if they then say up on Palisades, well, you people need to re-level this and bring it up and it's going to add a couple million bucks.

People with more limited insurance who already got screwed because they were under Fair Plan only gave them a maximum amount. Those people, guess what? Now they got to abandon the land and California's going to take it.

Do you remember when the fires were still burning and the palisades, literally smoke and ash and Gavin Newsom was standing in the middle of all those people and he was talking about talking about the governor or and he started doing that weird body snake movement about land surveyors.

Remember, like he said it, he said it right here.

Issues.

I was just talking to Josh Green, the governor of down in Hawaii, who had some ideas around some land use concerns he has around speculators coming in buying up properties and the like so we're working with our legal teams to move those things forward and we'll be presenting those in a matter of days not just weeks. Yeah talking about because Hawaii had the fires and everybody there was complaining about yo they're coming

in and buying the land he's saying it., can you do me a favor and go to chat, GBT, and type in what is Senate Bill 549? What is Senate Bill 549? What is Senate Bill 549? California? Yeah, watch this. Senate Bill 549, specific to California, there it is, yeah.

Senate Bill 549, they just announced this and it's been now put on pause. This bill will remove certain powers from enhanced infrastructure financing district under second neighborhood infill finance and transit improvements, notably the ability to use sales and use tax revenue and the requirements for districts to be coterminous with the creating city or country.

By the way, with the county, if you go a little bit lower, the idea of this when they announced it was for them to use a portion of the area, establish a government resilient rebuilding authority that could purchase fire damaged parcels in Pacific Palisades, then develop a portion into low income or supporting housing. Objective address the housing affordability and post fire rebuilding rebuilding efforts in LA County let me let me explain this to you the

properties that were the waterfront properties they proposed why don't we take this and turn some of it into low-income the pushback bill met with strong local opposition from residents who felt it constituted a land grab citing the loss of property rights and demographic change in the community over 23,000 local signed objections and leaders like Pacific Palisades residents

Associations voiced deep concerns as a result that was put on a pause in mid 2025 to allow for more Community input and consultation by the way, so when you hear these things being said it wasn't just a theory It was actually what they were trying to do in California a lot of people are like what the hell are you talking about? What the hell you talking about? And you know obviously, you know as they're going back and forth I pull up the numbers on permits because that's the one I always look at how fast permits are being given As of July of 2025, which is last month, the city of LA has received 389 rebuilt permit

applications tied to Palisades, about 8% of the estimated 4,700 properties affected. 145 permits were approved, allowing homes to begin major repairs and reconstruction. And then in the Altadena area, only 15% of applications were approved. And this is an ongoing thing that's going on right now. So again, to a lot of people, they moved on, life goes on. To the people that were affected by the Palisades, their life is still impacted by what happened

there. The Palisades, Altenina, go ahead. Scroll back to the top and look at what they call it. Sometimes your government hides its corruption in plain sight. It's called, right there, the Second Neighborhood Infill. Finance and transit improvement.

What is the second neighborhood, low income housing, that they're going to force on you after they steal your neighbor's land?

Let's see what's going to happen there.

Adam. By the way, Adam Carolla, just stay on him for one second. What complete divergent career paths Jimmy Kimmel and Adam Carolla have taken? Can we just highlight that for a second? Do you remember 25 years ago, these guys were the host and co-host of The Man Show, a show that lived on Comedy Central that was famous for beer chugging and juggy dancing.

And now Jimmy Kimmel has gone completely left, Schill of the left, Adam Carolla has gone right, and just keeping it real. And everything that he said here, just sort of capturing the essence of what's going on in California, very important. The reason I bring that up is this, I would love to see those two have a conversation. What do you think? What do you think? Apparently they're still friends,

but apparently they don't talk politics at all. Who do you think doesn't want to talk politics?

Well, let me tell you what happened. Here's the question I want to ask you. Just last week, we did a clip on Kimmel. And I dared Kimmel to have a Republican on. And I said he wouldn't do it, right? Apparently, the Fallon producer, some young person that follows PBD Podcast, heard it and took an idea to him, and said, hey, Fallon, let's shock the world

and let's have Gutfeld on. Are you kidding me? So the number one late night show, Greg Gutfeld, that beats these other guys and he's on Fox News. He goes on Jimmy Kimmel and guess what happened to the results? Tonight's show rating soar to multi-year high on Gutfeld visit. So by the way, kudos to Fallon's group for listening. And obviously, Kemmel's going to do whatever Kemmel is doing because his show is going

to be cancelled here soon because he's not a late night show host comedian. He is a pundit from CNN, MSNBC that's placed into the late night show. And Kemmel should simply resign and go to MSNBC. He should go to CNN instead of doing what he's doing. These are the numbers that came up. Gutfeld drew approximately 1.7 million viewers, a peak audience for the show since late 2023.

This represented a season-high regular, non-sports-led in sports. In the Key 25-54 demo, the episode attracted 294,000 viewers, marking a 13% increase over the average of 2024. According to Nielsen Live Plus same data, the viewership a 13% increase over the average of 2024 according to Nielsen live plus same data the viewership increased during gutful segment Compared to the half hour before unusual as late-night show typically lose viewers over the hour Yeah, maybe you ought to go to bed David calm bed David consulting and hire somebody

To help you double your viewership because before you also have to shut down both of your shows because how embarrassing it is. Kimmel goes out there and has 170 something guests who are all on the left and the only conservative he ever brings is who? Liz Cheney. Guess what Kimmel?

You got a shot at doing something as well yourself if you bring a conservative on. The fact that Fallon brought him on, I'm happy for them and good for Gutfeld to be in front of an audience that probably never watches him because they never watch Fox News. By the way, a lot of the Fallon audience was actually not happy.

Oh my God.

His true fans. Yes. Were not happy about Gutfeld. But good for Fallon. I respect the fact that Fallon had him on and I hope they continue doing this and if they do, their producers listen, they're going to start getting a little bit more balanced and all of a sudden, oh shit, this model works. Of course it works because bring America on, not just Democrats on or else

you're just CNN. I fully agree with you and I'm fully happy that you point that out. Here's the catch. Will Jimmy Fallon and his team have the balls to deal with the backlash that they will receive. This one guy was outraged on Reddit and wrote a whole thing. Basic saying there's no defense of this. Jimmy Fallon has always been soulless and weird. Do you have the, where was that? Just a soapbox and you have the chutzpah to basically say, I'm going to do this. And here's the whole thing. They said, I can't believe he normalized the right. Normalize the right. Do you remember Jimmy Fallon was the guy

that took Trump's hair, messed it all up, disheveled it. The problem is this and here's the essence of the problem of the left. Not only do they not think it's normal to have these guys, they don't think that these people are human. Why are you humanizing these people? Why are you humanizing Trump? Why are you normalizing these people on Fox News? They are soulless, maga extremists.

Let's see if Jimmy Fallon, or Jimmy Kimmel for that matter, have anybody from the right on because the backlash is going to be real.

Hey, here's another challenge for you. Let's see which one of you guys will pull it off first because I guarantee you to be the most viewed show You've had non celebrities the next the last whatever ten years you ready if camel or Fallon either one of them have Trump on It'll be the most viewed show you've had on and your rating is gonna go to the roof if you can get Trump but if you can get Trump and you have the audacity to sit in front of him and maybe even say a few words and maybe Kimmel apologize for a couple things in a humorous way, not in a serious way, in a humorous way, I think it'll be record-breaking.

So guess what? If I'm a producer for Fallon or Kimmel and I'm a competitive guy and I'm somewhat center, let's say I'm a conservative gay man working for or a libertarian producer who is a capitalist financially but socially you're liberal. Let's just say you're working for Kemmel or Fallon but you're still competitive and you want to compete, you don't want to be the next Colbert where under your watch your show

got cancelled because that's on your resume. I'd be the one calling the White House and saying, hey man, what can we do to get the president? Jimmy Fallon would like to extend an invite to the president and we'd like to host him and he can talk about whatever he wants to talk about. Whichever show gets them first. It shows you're open-minded and the audience will show up.

You'll see the audience will show up and your viewers will go up.

That's a crazy idea. I don't think they're gonna do it. To have people on you disagree with? That's crazy. Oh my gosh. I think it'll be explosive. And by the way, over or under. We gotta live in an echo chamber. Who do you think is more likely to have it? Kimmel or Fallon? Fallon. And who do you think Trump will most likely like to go back to? Fallon. Or Kimmel. Who do you think? Not Kimmel. Oh he Don't touch the hair. It's my hair Well, who's your boy, what was the Because we're we could you almost spit on the microphone Jake said be careful cuz you're gonna short the mic true But um, who needs having some ball night Fallon show who's you know, who the executive producer of the tonight show for Fallon is tell us

Lorne Michaels SNL so that attitude you guys are just Anti-republican Trump hating what just look at SNL. Trump was on SNL. When? What year? When he did the hotline bling. Yeah but what I'm yeah but what I'm saying is like you have to adjust just like with who's a who's going bye-bye Stephen Colbert you're losing 40 million but the the propaganda hate machine is so strong. A year. A year. Vinn so strong, Tommy. Are you saying that these people should not live in echo chambers? What are you doing right now, bro?

I know this is weird, but if-

Stop it.

But what-

Tribalism above everything.
