00:00:00.000 On the biggest stage in the world, FanDuel is changing the game

00:00:04.120 because sometimes your player gets subbed off and your bet goes with them.

00:00:07.520 Not anymore.

00:00:08.480 With FanDuel's Super Sub, if your player's subbed out, your bet stays in.

00:00:12.820 That's right.

00:00:13.380 If your player leaves the match, your bet continues on with the substitute,

00:00:17.560 so you're still in it until the final whistle.

00:00:59.980 It's the Anthony Cumia Show

00:01:01.780 on the Red Apple Podcast

00:01:04.180 Network.

00:01:06.100 Yes, it is.

00:01:07.820 The Anthony Cumia Show.

00:01:09.880 And we are

00:01:11.380 live. Yes, Sunday

00:01:13.780 night. And

00:01:15.760 another week

00:01:16.780 of hijinks and, dare I say,

00:01:19.860 shenanigans.

00:01:21.520 Language.

00:01:22.160 it's never ending

00:01:24.980 it's just never ending these days

00:01:27.340 is there even one day

00:01:29.960 that is kind of chill

00:01:32.540 kind of like

00:01:33.560 I guess

00:01:35.920 everything isn't coming apart

00:01:38.820 at the seams today

00:01:40.060 nope

00:01:41.940 I don't remember a day like that

00:01:44.220 for quite some time

00:01:45.760 and I get it

00:01:47.040 being in broadcasting

00:01:48.160 you're kind of exposed to

00:01:50.200 a lot more than just your average citizen.

00:01:57.560 I get it.

00:01:58.760 I have to be on top of a lot of this stuff.

00:02:02.480 So I'm kind of exposed to it.

00:02:04.120 But I think even people, regardless of their job,

00:02:07.780 especially these days, you're pretty into what's going on.

00:02:11.700 You're paying attention.

00:02:13.660 We could see it.

00:02:14.740 I don't think people have been this savvy about the political state of this country and the world forever, ever, I think. 1.00

00:02:29.460 Honestly, some people are the blithering idiots, but even they think they're in the game. 0.99

00:02:36.720 They want to talk about it like imbeciles, but they do want to talk about it, hence the division. 1.00

00:02:44.740 I was just thinking about this before the show. 0.99

00:02:50.980 Years ago, we were talking about how divided the nation is.

00:02:55.740 Oh, my God, we're so divided down political lines and racial lines.

00:03:01.800 Oh, it's crazy.

00:03:04.040 And that was a picnic compared to what we are experiencing right now in the United States of America.

00:03:14.740 And the sad part is that this is the best it's going to be.

00:03:23.280 Tomorrow will only be worse.

00:03:27.820 Pessimistic much, Anthony?

00:03:30.640 Yes.

00:03:32.180 Yes, I am.

00:03:33.700 I just see what's going on out there.

00:03:36.900 the uh it's not disagreements anymore or or this kind of thought like well i respect your opinion

00:03:49.280 i hate it i don't agree with it but you you make a good case but i still don't agree with it

00:03:56.120 and and i could even think you're stupid and that but it's never even during the vietnam war 0.98

00:04:02.640 I was a little tater tot back then. 0.99

00:04:05.940 And I remember listening to the grownups talking about it during holidays

00:04:11.460 and yelling at each other about the peace movement and the war

00:04:16.940 and we can't let the communists get a foothold in Southeast Asia 0.73

00:04:22.380 and what does it have to do with us killing babies,

00:04:27.280 all the Vietnam debates that were going on.

00:04:32.640 huge demonstrations, and there was violence.

00:04:36.160 There was violence.

00:04:38.760 But, my God, we despise each other now.

00:04:47.240 The other side, you know?

00:04:50.220 Conservatives, liberals, Republicans, Democrats.

00:04:55.180 It's the right, the left.

00:04:58.220 We don't even like each other.

00:05:01.540 we hate each other

00:05:04.160 and when you hear either one side or the other

00:05:08.200 talk about turning down the rhetoric

00:05:11.480 and maybe, just maybe we can

00:05:14.600 talk to each other

00:05:16.480 and get along again

00:05:19.180 we're all Americans, no we're not

00:05:21.820 we're Americans that believe

00:05:25.540 America is one thing

00:05:27.020 and we're Americans that believe America is a completely

00:05:30.520 different thing we we have a common nationality in name only america what does it even mean

00:05:40.700 in 2025 i know what it used to mean and i know what i thought it meant during during my life

00:05:51.920 and it isn't really just an age thing it's not like well the younger people will believe that

00:05:57.460 america is different than you will it's not even that there are these just insane boomers 0.90

00:06:06.100 that that i don't know what the hell they're thinking if they're thinking at all

00:06:12.140 the left and the right is pretty much it and they have a completely different take on what

00:06:20.180 this country is and what it's supposed to be and how we're supposed to treat each other as

00:06:27.080 americans and there is barely any commonality between the two sides it i think that's obvious

00:06:38.620 not breaking any new ground over here with that statement i like an america that has

00:06:46.780 the traditions and values that we understood to be American.

00:06:56.880 You know, we always considered ourselves to be the moral high ground

00:07:03.440 in a lot of world events.

00:07:05.540 Sure, we went a little nuts every so often having to replace a president

00:07:12.160 in some Central American country

00:07:15.460 or shoveling some weapons to some other organization.

00:07:20.620 But the bottom line is, you know,

00:07:22.820 we didn't despise each other like we do now.

00:07:28.280 And the way we view America is so different.

00:07:35.040 This freak show that we put up with every day 0.97

00:07:39.800 And we were told many years ago when they started rearing their ugly heads, their ugly nose-pierced, pink, blue, and yellow-haired ugly heads, we were told we need to be tolerant. 0.97

00:07:59.580 We need to be tolerant. 0.98

00:08:01.520 These are Americans just like you.

00:08:05.340 Yeah, right.

00:08:07.560 And we were.

00:08:09.800 We were very tolerant to a fault.

00:08:13.100 And when people talk about things like the domino effect or slippery slope,

00:08:22.220 that's exactly what happens.

00:08:25.120 And then you fast forward a decade or so,

00:08:29.140 and your America doesn't look anything like the America that you wanted,

00:08:36.380 you had, you enjoyed.

00:08:39.380 It's now this freak show with certifiably insane people running around telling you you have to celebrate everything they do.

00:08:55.100 You're not allowed to disagree with them.

00:08:57.480 And as we saw of late, if you do, you might end up in the proverbial pine box.

00:09:04.660 so how do we have anything in common how do we have enough in common in 2025 to not hate each

00:09:16.700 other i i think the the right wing people and i hate even saying that because they've said so long 0.69

00:09:24.880 how the right wing is the crazy violent white supremacy which is all nonsense but for lack of 0.60

00:09:32.680 a better term uh yeah we enjoyed the the american traditions and and then when when we see the left 0.97

00:09:42.760 just screwing everything up and then we're told to be tolerant and then when uh everything comes

00:09:50.680 crashing down and we don't we're not even allowed to practice these uh traditions and institutions

00:09:56.400 anymore uh we're told we have to be nice and and turn down the rhetoric and can't we just talk it

00:10:05.880 out yeah like charlie kirk tried to talk it out that's all he was doing had that work out for him

00:10:14.140 well there's a couple of arenas packed full of people paying tribute to charlie kirk

00:10:23.220 um i don't know what comes next but i i'll tell you what doesn't come next unity any kind of uh

00:10:34.220 sit down peaceful dialogue and debate between uh these two definitive sides

00:10:44.240 there doesn't even seem to be any middle ground anymore there's no gray area

00:10:52.080 There's no people that are willing to look at both sides and try to talk to either side about that.

00:11:01.980 It's so staunch.

00:11:06.020 Everyone is staunchly divided.

00:11:09.560 And it's not a good thing.

00:11:12.340 I'll tell you that.

00:11:13.820 I like the side I'm on.

00:11:16.740 Oh, it's not sides.

00:11:17.780 We're all Americans.

00:11:18.620 How long have we been hearing the left especially say that?

00:11:22.900 We're not talking about red states and blue states.

00:11:26.680 It's the United States.

00:11:28.860 Oh, okay.

00:11:30.300 Yeah, it really looks like it.

00:11:32.440 It really looks like it. 0.92

00:11:34.680 With the clowns marching in the street, doing everything they can to keep criminals out there 1.00

00:11:43.400 and to make sure women can just kill their kids. 0.99

00:11:49.180 And I'm not even that big an abortion advocate or a pro-lifer. 0.98

00:12:00.200 It's just another thing that divvies up the country along political lines.

00:12:06.260 And I'm not even one of these that there's a great overseeing eye of Sauron that is just keeping us divided in order to conquer us and power over us.

00:12:19.620 Maybe it worked out that way, but I don't think it was anyone's plan right from the get-go.

00:12:25.500 it's just we were way too nice

00:12:30.060 and we allowed the left

00:12:35.200 the communist left 0.94

00:12:37.260 the debaucherous and horrible left 0.97

00:12:41.140 we allowed them to do whatever the hell they wanted

00:12:44.840 and we were told we had to be nice

00:12:47.580 and look where nice got us

00:12:49.740 it got us a country divided

00:12:51.940 and it's barely recognizable anymore as to what it used to be, you know?

00:13:01.520 Well, there's my two cents on that.

00:13:03.740 Plenty more, though, to talk about.

00:13:05.780 I want to talk about the freedom of speech issue and Kimmel being fired

00:13:09.540 or whatever he is, laid off, suspended, and a bunch of liberal people

00:13:15.760 that decided they were going to get on social media

00:13:19.220 and say naughty, nasty things about a man's life,

00:13:24.240 and they got fired, and now they just can't understand it

00:13:27.180 and want to think that it was all,

00:13:30.880 it was their First Amendment was infringed upon.

00:13:35.620 That ain't quite it.

00:13:37.360 That isn't quite what happened.

00:14:57.780 Hello, Susan.

00:15:00.080 Hi.

00:15:01.140 Well, I just, you know, was watching that.

00:15:03.900 I didn't get to see the whole thing, but I did get to see Erica.

00:15:08.720 yes the widow the widow of charlie kirk at the uh the memorial that they were having today

00:15:17.540 yeah the drop dead moment i mean she was so oh my god she's got like a so powerful her she was so

00:15:27.460 strong. And, um, the, the drop dead moment was when she said that she forgave, um, her

00:15:38.740 husband. Yeah. Okay. Uh, juxtaposed president Trump spoke. Yeah. I mean, no, this was, I

00:15:52.580 had tears going down my face i was but when president trump said i hate my opponents yeah

00:15:59.680 yeah we we uh charlie charlie is like he doesn't like him he's looking up and i'm like wow well

00:16:09.140 susan maybe people want to hear the actual clip and not your amazing impression she does these

00:16:16.000 impersonations. You'd think it was the real

00:16:18.020 people. Thank you,

00:16:20.340 Susan. We might as well

00:16:22.140 play that one now.

00:16:24.980 Here is

00:16:25.760 I guess

00:16:27.880 first Erica.

00:16:30.440 Let's hear Erica 0.91

00:16:31.420 Kirk talking about

00:16:34.220 her husband and

00:16:35.880 what she's going through

00:16:38.020 and of course her faith, which

00:16:40.100 is keeping her and a lot of other people

00:16:42.160 going during

00:16:43.520 this tragedy so here's erica kirk at the charlie kirk memorial today most of all god's mercy and

00:16:51.540 god's love have been real revealed to me these past 10 days after charlie's assassination we

00:16:58.680 didn't see violence we didn't see rioting

00:17:14.120 Dieting.

00:17:16.300 How about that?

00:17:17.780 We didn't see revolution.

00:17:20.660 Unfortunately.

00:17:21.260 Instead, we saw what my husband always prayed he would see in this country.

00:17:26.440 We saw revival.

00:17:33.080 Yeah.

00:17:34.080 Yeah, that's tough for her, man.

00:17:35.920 But, boy, it's got to be pretty awesome to have such faith in your spirituality, your religion, God.

00:17:51.440 You know, I throw it around every so often.

00:17:54.820 But to be so dedicated and to have such faith in your religion, and especially Christianity.

00:18:05.920 That, you know, you're sorry and you're sad and you're grieving a loss of that person.

00:18:15.560 They're not around anymore.

00:18:16.940 That's a very sad thing.

00:18:18.720 But there's this part where it's like, oh, he's in heaven with Jesus.

00:18:24.860 And there's this place where it's paradise and that's like your goal.

00:18:34.260 Your whole life, whether you're unfortunately taken out in your early 30s or you live to a ripe old age, if you have that faith and you go through life as a God-fearing person, that is your reward.

00:18:54.520 You're just desserts at the end of it.

00:18:57.880 So while you're you're busted up that the person isn't here anymore, and especially under the circumstances that Charlie was murdered, there's that part where you're like, oh, and you really believe it.

00:19:12.040 You know, you got to really believe it.

00:19:14.240 Like, oh, yeah, he's up there, him and Jesus and they're, you know, in paradise.

00:19:20.340 And he's he's it's got to be so awesome.

00:19:25.260 I don't know.

00:19:26.200 it's a tough nut for me to crack you know but uh god bless god bless anyone that could do that

00:19:35.180 and then uh what's a susan was talking about donald trump got up and uh you know while erica

00:19:43.440 kirk was very forgiving her her religion uh teaches her that that she has to forgive

00:19:53.160 She can't hold that type of hate and animosity and want for some kind of revenge in her heart.

00:20:01.360 And that's, again, got to be a wonderful thing, not just walking around hating all the time.

00:20:06.380 But it's another tough nut to crack.

00:20:10.640 You know, vengeance is such a great thing.

00:20:15.580 But she was asked about Charlie's killer, and she did indeed say that she forgives him

00:20:23.960 and doesn't hold any ill will toward him, and she forgives him.

00:20:31.440 I don't know.

00:20:32.660 Doesn't want him to get the death penalty.

00:20:35.840 Well, Donald Trump has a different take on his opponents, and he voiced it at the memorial.

00:20:42.260 Here's the Donald.

00:20:44.800 he did not hate his opponents he wanted the best for them that's where i disagreed with charlie

00:20:56.900 i hate my opponent and i don't want the best for them i'm sorry i am sorry erica

00:21:04.640 but now erica can talk to me and the whole group and maybe they can convince me that

00:21:09.860 that's not right but i can't stand my opponent

00:21:12.340 charlie's angry looking down he's angry at me now he wasn't interested in demonizing anyone he was

00:21:23.260 interested in persuading everyone to the ideas and principles he believed were good right and true

00:21:31.160 yeah again you know kind of tough kind of a tough thing to do when you feel like you've been wronged

00:21:41.540 And I mean, I don't know how Erica Kirk doesn't feel like she's been wronged, that Charlie was wronged, her family, her kids, all of his supporters, and then to go, yeah, I don't care that I was wronged.

00:21:58.380 I have no, I don't have this want and need for vengeance like that.

00:22:06.020 When, for the most part, I think it's basic human nature to want to be the, to exact revenge.

00:22:19.180 I am wrath.

00:22:21.440 You know?

00:22:22.400 How about that?

00:22:23.760 Seven.

00:22:24.600 Like in Seven, Brad Pitt's character at the end.

00:22:28.380 Oh, yeah, he could have just not shot the guy in the head there,

00:22:35.900 but I bet that movie wouldn't have tested well 0.97

00:22:40.880 if he didn't kill the killer

00:22:46.620 because most people want to see that.

00:22:52.260 And I guess through your faith,

00:22:54.440 being able to kind of put that aside

00:22:57.960 and forgive.

00:23:02.120 Oof.

00:23:04.280 You know?

00:23:06.080 I guess the easy parts are, well, go to church.

00:23:09.340 Go to church on Sunday.

00:23:11.340 Give confession.

00:23:13.540 Do nice things for some people.

00:23:15.900 You feel all good.

00:23:16.920 You go, yeah, it was good.

00:23:17.940 I was being kind of godly today.

00:24:02.120 person than i and at my age i can't see myself changing i don't know all right back in moments

00:24:10.940 where are you going stick around anthony cumia show continues it's the anthony cumia show on

00:24:17.000 the red apple podcast network it's the anthony cumia show entertaining and informative on the

00:24:25.500 red apple podcast network the anthony cumia show on a lovely sunday evening and uh yeah the uh the

00:24:37.380 charlie kirk memorial glendale arizona at the state farm stadium tens of thousands of people

00:24:45.400 They were lining up yesterday, and they have another arena right next door as an overflow, and that was full.

00:24:55.780 And then there were people out in the parking lots, and just a lot of support for Charlie Kirk.

00:25:04.420 Donald Trump hailed slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk

00:25:10.080 as a martyr for American freedom on Sunday

00:25:13.880 and vowed at his memorial service to carry on the activist's work

00:25:17.540 while again suggesting the radical left was responsible for Kirk's murder.

00:25:23.280 Kirk.

00:25:24.380 The violence comes largely from the left, Trump said,

00:25:27.840 without citing any evidence.

00:25:29.520 I can we really just despise mainstream media?

00:25:36.780 What is this?

00:25:37.920 Reuters hemorrhoid is just terrible without citing any evidence. 1.00

00:25:47.320 If you can't see it, then just shut up. 0.98

00:25:51.420 Then, you know, I don't know what to tell anyone. 0.88

00:25:54.540 What did the left do? 1.00

00:25:56.160 You've seen it, you've heard it for years now, these bastards. 1.00

00:26:02.820 They're out there just stirring it up, getting these mindless zombies to do their bidding 1.00

00:26:14.280 by working their propaganda machines, which Reuters and the left-wing media,

00:26:21.560 propaganda media is doing so without citing evidence stop in remarks that often turn starkly

00:26:31.940 partisan in contrast to the more solemn tone that most other speakers adopted yeah maybe it's because

00:26:41.340 He's the boyfriend of a trans person, a liberal who was brainwashed and indoctrinated by the schools and his circle of people, decided to kill Charlie Kirk.

00:27:03.420 And he was starkly partisan? 0.55

00:27:07.680 Yeah.

00:27:08.960 Yeah, we need more of that.

00:27:10.400 it's like i was saying before enough of the tolerance we're done with it done

00:27:17.080 um trump's message reflected the dual nature of the event which had the feel of a religious

00:27:24.460 revival mixed with a make america great again rally the memorial organized uh 11 days after

00:27:30.780 the assassination of kirk uh conservative youth advocacy organization turning point drew tens

00:27:38.260 of thousands of people yeah erica of course there and um it's uh i think i think this assassination

00:27:51.180 happened at a time where a lot of americans especially like i said people on the right

00:27:59.460 People that want a more traditional America.

00:28:06.940 He wants to go back to your 1860s.

00:28:10.980 No.

00:28:12.380 Just more traditional.

00:28:15.500 Little things called respect, safety, control of crime, not having freaks walk around.

00:28:26.660 Yeah, more traditional.

00:28:28.420 like that and i think this assassination of charlie kirk happened at a time where 0.96

00:28:34.580 we were right at the precipice anyway of really not wanting to hear any more of this garbage

00:28:42.920 from the left and um that includes you know everything that's been going on 0.99

00:28:49.460 the illegal immigration problem the islamic invasion of our country and and all western 1.00

00:28:57.360 nations around the world, and how destructive that is to America and democratic nations 1.00

00:29:08.260 around the world. 0.98

00:29:10.580 So I think this really got a fire under everyone's ass that, yeah, we're sick of it. 0.98

00:29:17.300 And I think looking at Christian values like we're seeing at this memorial 0.97

00:29:27.060 and how important that is to a lot of people that are at this memorial

00:29:32.920 and just people watching at home.

00:29:36.360 Because, you know, we've seen that Christians seem to be the one religion 1.00

00:29:43.460 you could really trash publicly with impunity.

00:29:47.300 and uh people just now they're embracing it and if they're not literally embracing the religion 0.91

00:29:58.100 itself they're embracing the spirit of it that yeah i don't want a country that is under islamic 0.72

00:30:07.960 law that uh islam can come in take over uh put their ancient rules and regulations in place 0.87

00:30:18.040 so i think charlie kirk being murdered is part of it but it's also all this stuff that's been

00:30:24.760 building up all this that's been building up charlie's murder was kind of the catalyst to

00:30:33.120 get that out. And, you know, I don't think at any other time before this, you know, a couple of

00:30:42.160 years back even, that we would have seen such a turnout and support for someone like Charlie Kirk

00:30:49.240 because we weren't done yet. We hadn't looked around and just gone, yeah, done. We still had

00:30:57.780 this stupid well we'll be 1.00

00:30:59.840 tolerant we'll see maybe things will change 1.00

00:31:01.960 now people are just

00:31:03.800 sick and tired of it

00:31:05.360 and what

00:31:07.740 Charlie Kirk was saying out in

00:31:09.840 these debates that he would

00:31:11.800 do with people was the same thing

00:31:13.360 more traditional America

00:31:15.320 guided

00:31:17.680 by

00:31:19.380 faith in God

00:31:21.220 faith in

00:31:23.720 something greater than us

00:31:25.520 maybe

00:31:26.520 i don't know like i said it's tough that's a tough one but you don't have to be religious to have

00:31:33.500 basic values to put value on human lives uh you don't have to go to church every week for that

00:31:45.300 and that's one of the the values i was talking about the traditions of being an american 0.98

00:31:50.760 and the left is just all about violence and mucking up the works i saw these these dumb 0.96

00:32:02.560 protesters in front of uh the exit to an ice law enforcement facility and they're trying to go out 0.98

00:32:12.560 and do their jobs they got vans and they're trying to drive them out and they're locking arms and

00:32:19.740 standing in front of the vehicles, in front of the gate, trying to get out.

00:32:25.140 And when some of the law enforcement officers threw them out of the way 0.93

00:32:29.300 and they fell on their asses on the street, 0.90

00:32:34.060 it was like the worst thing these people have ever seen. 1.00

00:32:38.420 They're yelling Nazi and Hitler and fascist at the cops.

00:32:42.920 You were in the way.

00:32:44.600 I tossed you out of the way.

00:32:47.440 They just don't seem to understand how things work in a civil society, a civil Western society.

00:32:58.040 And everything is a slight to them. 0.98

00:33:02.920 Everything's an intrusion into their insane, sick lifestyles. 0.93

00:33:09.960 And we're just supposed to go, yeah, take it. 0.92

00:33:13.440 Take America.

00:33:14.340 Go ahead. 1.00

00:33:14.760 Turn it into whatever crap hole you want to turn it into. 0.99

00:33:21.200 And we looked around enough, and finally now we're saying no, we won't. 0.99

00:33:28.940 And they're all up in arms about that.

00:33:35.120 Sorry.

00:33:36.560 We looked around long enough, and we are done.

00:33:41.320 We are done.

00:33:42.920 uh george from west chester what's up well you happen to bring up some religious um discussions

00:33:52.000 so a little bit i'm sure you realize that uh the christian theology indicates that

00:33:59.100 jesus helps you when you're dead not when you're alive well yeah but you know there's uh other

00:34:06.280 people that beg to differ the power of prayer and um and there are people that do stick right

00:34:13.240 with that and go yeah i i'm not on this earth for uh the pleasures of the flesh i'm here to serve

00:34:22.360 uh god and jesus and uh get my reward ex post facto after you die um so you know it's like i

00:34:35.380 said isn't that quite a contradiction i don't know i don't know what it is it's very difficult

00:34:42.020 because it's all faith-based there's no tangible evidence all right do you think a supreme being

00:34:49.940 is a spectator or an observer or or neither one i don't know if you look at god as the creator

00:34:58.380 of us and having

00:35:00.660 this... No, but that's different.

00:35:02.400 That's the creation of the

00:35:04.460 Earth, nature,

00:35:06.440 but the part of the human being

00:35:08.860 is expendable.

00:35:10.120 But that's part of the Christian religion

00:35:12.300 is that there is a God

00:35:14.780 who created all of this

00:35:16.700 and your

00:35:17.820 mission on planet Earth

00:35:20.620 isn't to go

00:35:22.580 around pleasing yourself

00:35:24.860 and doing things

00:35:26.780 selfishly,

00:35:27.960 It's to serve God. And then you get the payoff after your debt. That's the that's the book.

00:35:37.120 Well, what good is that if you're if you're supposed to be an individual who can benefit mankind such as Charlie?

00:35:46.360 Yeah. And he's taken. And that that to me is a bit of a contradiction.

00:35:51.060 Well, it gives much regard to the human being. It does seem that way, George.

00:35:55.580 And that's where the mysterious ways thing comes in.

00:36:01.620 That's the answer.

00:36:02.220 Well, that's if you want to say it's a mystery.

00:36:04.200 It's not a mystery.

00:36:05.200 It's a matter of common sense, actually, when you think about it.

00:36:09.080 Well, common sense can't be pulled in to religious faith.

00:36:14.420 It's the antithesis of common sense. 0.98

00:36:17.740 It's faith-based. 0.98

00:36:19.160 You have to believe so much that you're willing to use your life here.

00:36:25.580 your human life here on earth to serve God.

00:36:32.020 And then you come out on the other end.

00:36:34.700 What is it to say that you serve anybody?

00:36:38.400 Well, I know.

00:36:39.460 I know, George.

00:36:40.300 I know what you're saying,

00:36:41.420 but all I'm doing is trying to give the other side's point of view

00:36:46.560 on how this all is supposed to work.

00:36:48.780 You know why these people are joining this far left?

00:36:53.020 Because they're lonely.

00:36:54.440 yeah well that's life that's their religion thank you george great take on uh on that george i

00:37:03.700 hang up on george a little bit but um yeah that the left has their religion and it's what they

00:37:12.200 do it's it's the protesting the chanting through a bullhorn and then repeating the words in a

00:37:19.640 parade of of freaks and you know it uh if if you you want to bring it into a religious

00:37:26.800 um circle and kind of look at it in a religious eyes it's like in the ten commandments 0.98

00:37:36.260 when uh moses comes back and they're all partying and having debaucherous sex and they made a golden

00:37:44.400 idol a golden calf and they were worshiping that it's kind of like that you know and the left seems

00:37:52.580 like that kind of of people that they're they're lost they're just uh milling about getting

00:38:01.540 together with each other and and they don't really have any faith in anything they certainly don't

00:38:08.660 respect humanity they don't respect human beings um so yeah it's it's tough and look i'm just

00:38:18.100 i'm just saying what i learned through my life as a catholic i i barely go to church i don't know

00:38:26.220 much of anything about the actual religion i'm just saying like that this is what is preached

00:38:33.600 to christians it goes through certain religions catholicism being one of them

00:38:40.360 and it's just uh you know it's it the faith part of it that's the tough one because you're really

00:38:50.640 you're gambling there aren't you you're gambling on something that really no one's been able to

00:38:57.560 show proof of an actual payoff at the end it's totally faith-based so i don't know i don't know

00:39:05.960 hey i i more power to you if if you're doing that because i can only imagine the peace of mind

00:39:13.380 it gives people must be amazing to uh live your life and and have this absolute

00:39:23.680 I don't know, just an absolute place like heaven that you go to.

00:39:33.120 You believe it 110%.

00:39:36.100 It must be easy then to go through life

00:39:38.980 and not fall into so many evil pitfalls, you know?

00:39:47.800 Here's Kevin, Kevin from Ohio.

00:39:50.460 What's up, Kevin?

00:39:51.980 Hey, Anthony.

00:39:53.020 Man, Susan was loaded.

00:39:54.900 Oh, I know, yeah, per usual. 0.99

00:39:58.140 Per usual.

00:39:58.980 No, that was the best call yet she's had.

00:40:00.960 Hey, no, I just thought it was crazy, like, the lack of compassion that, like, everybody had.

00:40:06.540 I know you talked about this, but, like, everybody sees it now on, like, their Facebook and stuff.

00:40:11.960 There's these people that you've known for years, I mean, 10 years or whatever, longer.

00:40:17.240 And you look and you're like, oh, my God, this person's really sick.

00:40:21.040 Yeah.

00:40:22.380 That's weird, man.

00:40:23.880 That's kind of where we are.

00:40:27.580 I don't know.

00:40:29.020 Hey, one more thing real quick, and I'm going to let you go.

00:40:32.600 Get Florentine or Colin Quinn on here, man.

00:40:36.240 You guys are always so funny.

00:40:38.140 Oh, yeah.

00:40:39.000 No, I will get a couple of the comics on.

00:40:42.000 Colin would be great, too.

00:40:43.180 Yeah, Florentine.

00:40:43.940 I would love to hear.

00:40:44.780 Oh, Colin's awesome. 1.00

00:40:45.740 Colin Quinn is the shit, dude. 1.00

00:40:46.840 Yeah, you guys are. 1.00

00:40:48.520 I watch you guys on YouTube.

00:40:51.080 There's so much good stuff, and I follow your compound stuff on YouTube.

00:40:54.320 I've got to get on your real page, but yeah, man.

00:40:56.780 Thank you, Kevin.

00:40:57.840 Appreciate it.

00:40:59.220 I appreciate it.

00:41:01.340 Yeah.

00:41:02.440 Anyway, we could move on from the religion stuff.

00:41:06.920 It's, I don't know, kind of creepy, too, because it's all ghostly stuff.

00:41:12.940 I don't know.

00:41:13.900 Ooh.

00:41:15.500 Kind of scary.

00:41:16.600 uh yeah i want to get into the freedom of speech issue thing here and um clown of the week i think

00:41:25.020 our clown of the week this week is the first time we've ever had this person as clown of the week

00:41:33.340 i'm wondering if you could figure out who it's going to be we'll do that um after after the break

00:41:39.600 but uh yeah because especially with the kimmel thing and a lot of these liberals getting fired

00:41:45.300 and uh it's they honestly don't understand that the first amendment um is a guarantee of not even

00:41:57.080 a guarantee it's kind of it marks that you have a god-given right to a freedom to express yourself

00:42:05.740 and religion and uh freedom of speech but what people don't understand is a corporation that

00:42:13.440 you're working for doesn't have to adhere to that it really doesn't have to adhere to the first

00:42:19.420 amendment um there are a lot of things going on with that right now people being fired the

00:42:26.260 jimmy kimmel situation and i've been through it numerous times during my radio career

00:42:31.540 getting fired for stuff i said or wrote down on social media and you know i i i never tried to

00:42:42.280 file a lawsuit because I knew damn well that my First Amendment didn't mean anything to

00:42:49.520 Sirius XM satellite radio. It didn't mean anything to Zappos Communication when I was

00:42:55.860 working at WAF in Boston. Yeah, didn't mean anything to WNEW radio. We got the boot there.

00:43:06.260 it's a company

00:43:08.380 and if they don't like you

00:43:10.680 they can fire you

00:43:12.760 that's how companies work

00:43:15.220 with employees

00:43:16.060 and if you write something down

00:43:18.960 that gives them the impression

00:43:20.720 that you're somebody that

00:43:22.060 is dangerous around the workplace

00:43:24.480 or they don't

00:43:26.340 the boss doesn't like you

00:43:28.380 doesn't trust you

00:43:30.280 because of some of the stuff you've said

00:43:31.840 then you're gone

00:43:33.080 and you really don't have any recourse

00:43:34.740 all right we'll we'll talk about that a little bit next and uh a lot more of the anthony cumia

00:43:41.540 show coming up it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple podcast network

00:43:47.500 it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple podcast network

00:44:24.160 Hillary

00:44:24.840 Rodham Clinton.

00:44:27.240 I don't believe we've had

00:44:29.020 Hillary Rodham Clinton yet.

00:44:31.560 Hmm. I'll have to check

00:44:32.920 my records but um hillary of course she's got to get in get involved with the everything so this 0.75

00:44:41.200 this jimmy kimmel firing and all of the the left and especially the wonderful people in

00:44:49.300 tinseltown hollywood the the wonderful celebrities the beautiful people

00:44:55.860 they all have their opinion and it's all the same what a coincidence all the same that uh trump 0.54

00:45:04.140 is a tyrannical ogre who is just stripping people of their first amendment rights and uh 0.95

00:45:14.340 hillary crawled out from her rock went in front of a camera and let's listen to her drivel for a 1.00

00:45:22.900 minute or so. It is a direct government action to try to intimidate employers, organizations, 1.00

00:45:33.180 corporations, much of which we've already seen, to remove an opponent, even though it's a comic.

00:45:41.220 It's, you know, look, I had no idea when I was in public life and listening to the jokes that

00:45:49.200 were made about me and the attacks that were, you know, coming from people like Jimmy Kimmel

00:45:54.460 and others that I could have called up the head of the FCC and said, take them off the

00:45:59.400 air.

00:45:59.780 I don't like what they're saying.

00:46:02.740 What?

00:46:05.440 If anyone could dig up one clip of Jimmy Kimmel goofing on Hillary Clinton, well, let me see

00:46:18.660 it. 0.99

00:46:19.200 because listen to the way she sounds.

00:46:22.320 When I was in the public life, oh, well, if I could have just called up,

00:46:27.480 oh, yeah, because everyone was on comedy shows, late-night talk shows,

00:46:34.700 Saturday Night Live.

00:46:36.100 Oh, they were all making fun of you.

00:46:39.060 Were they?

00:46:40.560 Is that what they were doing?

00:46:44.100 Oh, God.

00:47:23.060 It didn't work that way.

00:47:24.960 You didn't have to worry about it because no one was goofing on you

00:47:29.680 because they were scared out of their pants to make fun of you.

00:47:34.160 You look at those lists of all the people that have known the Clintons that have met an untimely end.

00:47:45.100 Think Jimmy Kimmel wanted any of that?

00:47:48.840 I doubt it, Ms. Rodham.

00:47:54.080 But yeah, she thinks it was the intimidation by the commissioner of the FCC.

00:48:01.220 And like I brought up earlier, maybe, maybe, but it's, that's definitely not assured yet.

00:48:11.800 The FCC is constantly saying we're, we'll look into it.

00:48:15.800 People wanted the FCC to look into what Jimmy Kimmel said.

00:48:20.280 Now, I don't think what Kimmel said was even bad, even from Charlie Kirk's supporters point of view.

00:48:27.900 I don't think it was bad.

00:48:29.360 He was more goofing on Trump than he was Charlie Kirk.

00:48:33.060 It was dishonest that he said that the assassin, you know, that MAGA people should look at themselves if they want to look at who did this.

00:48:44.460 That was dishonest.

00:48:47.080 But again, he's not a newscaster. 0.99

00:48:49.680 He's a dopey talk show host. 0.82

00:48:52.860 and I don't think they're held to the same standard 0.92

00:48:57.120 as a newscaster or a politician that's up there

00:49:02.020 and they lie constantly, newscasters and politicians.

00:49:06.640 So I don't know if you could really take what he said

00:49:10.780 and go, hey, I want the FCC to look into that.

00:49:13.580 I don't think there's an FCC violation there.

00:49:16.020 But when people called and wrote the FCC and said,

00:49:20.080 look into this the FCC commissioner said yeah we're going to look into this

00:49:23.960 is that a threat they look into a lot of things

00:49:28.100 they looked into the Opie and Anthony show when I was

00:49:31.380 half of the Opie and Anthony show when we got suspended

00:49:36.340 and said yeah we're looking into seeing if saying the mayor of

00:49:40.100 Boston is dead is some kind of FCC violation

00:49:43.560 and the company we were working for

00:49:47.840 was in a big deal with CBS

00:49:50.340 and they didn't want

00:49:52.600 any kind of

00:49:53.900 the deal being held up by

00:49:56.140 the FCC

00:49:57.280 so we were fired

00:49:59.180 now were we sure about that

00:50:02.380 where we could have gone to court

00:50:04.440 that they infringed on our

00:50:06.240 second amendment rights

00:50:07.880 hell no

00:50:09.020 there was no proof there

00:50:11.260 the FCC was asked to look into it

00:50:14.240 they looked into it

00:50:15.400 and we were fired

00:50:17.700 It happens. I honestly don't think, from what we know at this point, that it had anything to do with an FCC threat against ABC Disney to get rid of Jimmy Kimmel. For what? He's been saying terrible stuff about the right and about Trump for years now.

00:50:38.180 so what what all of a sudden was like oh well let's get rid of him and he said stuff that

00:50:45.220 was worse than what he said about charlie kirk all right uh that a lot more um and your calls

00:50:53.360 800-848-9222 anthony cumia show continues it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple podcast

00:51:02.460 network it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple podcast network the anthony cumia show

00:51:12.120 and uh we appreciate your patronage

00:51:17.980 the uh yeah it's been it's been an insane few weeks and i don't know where it goes i i think

00:51:27.800 a lot of people were in shock you know the whole thing and then the memorial everyone's getting

00:51:32.820 together there were a bunch of uh seeing trump and jd vance and hedge seth and a few other

00:51:43.920 cabinet members there all in one place with the way things are i don't know if that's such a good

00:51:51.240 idea i don't know if that's a good idea i don't know how far down the chain of command

00:51:57.220 they were the the succession uh that they were i mean who do we get if god forbid something

00:52:06.220 happened to that extent who the hell would be stepping up at that point uh not good not good

00:52:13.820 so uh that got me a little nervous seeing trump and uh elon shaking hands up in the bulletproof

00:52:22.280 booth there at the Charlie Kirk Memorial.

00:52:26.680 That was kind of interesting.

00:52:29.440 I don't know if it was good.

00:52:30.880 I really don't care if they're friends or not.

00:52:33.940 It always seemed like there was a lot of tension there anyway.

00:52:39.880 Trump seemed to get along better with Elon's son than he did Elon.

00:52:45.260 Elon's just a weird guy, and so is Trump. 0.94

00:52:47.640 And I think they're both narcissists because, first of all, every president is a narcissist.

00:52:56.600 I think you have to be to think you're the guy that's going to run the free world. 0.55

00:53:03.280 And Elon, you know, kind of a narcissist.

00:53:07.620 I'm going to save humanity by colonizing Mars.

00:53:14.580 It's kind of a narcissistic thing.

00:53:16.460 Hey, it's me.

00:53:17.860 I'm saving all of humanity and all future generations of humans.

00:53:23.120 So two narcissists don't usually go well together.

00:53:29.360 But it was kind of cool to see them shaking hands.

00:53:32.880 They were with Dana White from UFC.

00:53:35.500 They got a big UFC event planned for the White House lawn.

00:53:41.140 I don't know.

00:53:41.800 It's another one of those things that's Trump.

00:53:44.820 And I swear, man, even if you don't like the guy, if you really can't stand to the point where you're writing horrible things that the Secret Service should look at you for, then maybe not.

00:53:58.800 But I think most people in years, years to come, when all this part of history is in our wake, you're probably going to miss the guy, Donald Trump.

00:54:11.880 Oh, I hear you.

00:54:13.080 No, I think you will.

00:54:14.820 this is a once, maybe ever, type of presidency.

00:54:21.620 All the presidents we've had, from Washington up to Trump,

00:54:26.040 there's never been a president like this.

00:54:30.120 And people right now are probably going,

00:54:32.160 good, good, there's never been one.

00:54:35.280 Good, bad, and different.

00:54:36.500 Look, we're still chugging along.

00:54:38.980 He already served a full term,

00:54:41.280 and it wasn't the end of the world.

00:54:42.940 I think we'll get through this.

00:54:46.020 And then it's just another president that was in the past there.

00:54:51.920 And I think a lot of people after we, because what are we going to go back to business as usual?

00:54:58.660 J.D. Vance, let's say, let's say J.D. Vance is elected.

00:55:04.400 He's a politician.

00:55:06.460 He's pretty outspoken compared to other politicians, but he's not like Trump.

00:55:12.940 Uh, and it'll just be back to, you know, here's the news conference and I promise to make this country and it'll just, it'll be boring.

00:55:25.140 It'll be boring.

00:55:27.220 You'll miss that guy.

00:55:29.040 I think a lot of people are going to miss that guy.

00:55:32.720 Uh, on my, on my sheet here that I look at, my little prep sheet, it says, Libs hate law enforcement.

00:55:40.800 and uh yeah i i don't think you have to really argue this point i think it's pretty well known

00:55:49.280 um just before talking about the uh the guy in california that shot at an abc affiliate because

00:56:00.320 he was mad that they fired jimmy kimmel and then they just bail him out they give him bail he was

00:56:06.480 out on the streets, and thank God the FBI stepped in

00:56:10.000 and arrested him again. But that's how much

00:56:14.640 they care about law enforcement

00:56:17.680 putting dangerous people away from society.

00:56:23.140 They don't. They just don't.

00:56:26.120 They've demonstrated that over and over and over again. Lives

00:56:30.260 have been lost. Innocent people have been killed

00:56:33.900 because of their lack of any real motivation

00:56:41.780 to get criminals off the street.

00:56:45.680 So this was a clip I was talking about earlier

00:56:49.880 with Jasmine Crockett, Slavey Crockett.

00:56:56.440 She says, well, why don't we just let you hear 1.00

00:57:00.580 what she says about crime and criminals

00:57:03.540 and this is how they all think this is absolutely how they think they've twisted reality

00:57:11.660 around into such a way where it is not even recognizable anymore uh jasmine uh talk about

00:57:19.560 crime and criminals i understood what was kind of pushing them there and so i do want people to know

00:57:27.460 that just because someone has committed a crime,

00:57:30.160 it doesn't make them a criminal.

00:57:32.160 That is completely different.

00:57:34.300 Being a criminal is more so about your mindset.

00:57:38.000 Committing a crime can come for a lot of different reasons.

00:57:41.800 Oh, so you commit a crime for a bunch of reasons,

00:57:45.760 but being a criminal is a mindset,

00:57:49.820 and someone that commits a crime isn't necessarily a criminal.

00:57:53.520 Oh, okay.

00:57:54.980 All right.

00:57:55.840 You. Well, that's that's typical of the left. That is quite typical of the left because it's all about making excuses, all about making excuses.

00:58:16.560 Now, look, we're not all dummies here.

00:58:22.080 I think we understand that if a kid walks in to a stationary store, if those are still a thing,

00:58:32.900 and grabs a pack of gum and puts it in his pocket and walks out, yeah, I don't think he's a criminal.

00:58:42.080 A Safer Ontario means more police and prosecutors

00:58:46.160 making sure my car doesn't get stolen.

00:58:48.720 It means building new jails to keep criminals behind bars.

00:58:52.220 And it means there's no need to worry when I play at the park.

00:58:55.600 We're making every corner of Ontario safer

00:58:57.900 to make all of Ontario safer.

00:59:00.260 That's how we protect Ontario.

00:59:02.280 For all of us.

00:59:04.340 Learn how at Ontario.ca slash Safer Ontario.

00:59:07.440 Paid for by the Government of Ontario.

00:59:12.080 He's technically committed a crime, but as far as being a criminal, I don't think he's a criminal.

00:59:22.120 I think most people would say, no, the kid's not a criminal.

00:59:27.360 But I think what Ms. Crockett is talking about isn't that kid stealing some gum.

00:59:35.980 She's talking about, well, criminals, you know, people that really do commit real crimes.

00:59:42.080 this rash of of looting that's going on because you don't need a riot to loot you just go into

00:59:49.540 a store you go into a lululemon and you pack your arms with goods and you run out no one stops you 0.71

00:59:56.700 uh and then i guess you you sell it to some nigerian that uh puts it out on the corner

01:00:03.140 and sells it at a deeply discounted rate uh she would argue that those people

01:00:11.860 aren't really criminals because what if you're hungry oh my kids my chow's hungry i had to steal

01:00:23.220 food and diapers and formula for my chow what i never see anyone running out of those stores with

01:00:32.600 a big arms full of diapers it's it's louis vuitton and it's you know wigs and uh makeup 0.99

01:00:43.260 yeah it's she wants to make an excuse for every crime that is committed and all it does 1.00

01:00:56.560 is make everything more dangerous.

01:01:00.740 Mayor Johnson of Chicago, he's of the same mindset too

01:01:06.840 because he says he's got everything under control.

01:01:12.780 Trump said he wants to go into Chicago and get the National Guard in there

01:01:18.120 and work with law enforcement and really stop the body count

01:01:22.820 that Chicago chalks up every week.

01:01:26.560 Um, listen to what Mayor Johnson says about law enforcement, incarceration, jails.

01:01:33.600 Um, yeah, check this out.

01:01:35.900 The fact of the matter is no one has asked me to send federal troops into this city to make it safe.

01:01:42.340 It has never come up.

01:01:43.720 It never came up during the campaign.

01:01:45.320 It's never come up in the first two years.

01:01:47.100 The fact of the matter is we are driving violence down on this city and we're using every single resource that's available to us.

01:01:54.220 Jails and incarceration and law enforcement is a sickness that has not led to a safe community.

01:02:00.280 I'm going to work hard every single day to protect the people who are caught up in violence in this city.

01:02:06.380 Guess why?

01:02:07.220 You want to know why?

01:02:08.140 Because the vast majority of them look like me.

01:02:10.480 He doesn't talk to black mayors about what it's like to live in communities that have been disinvested in.

01:02:15.600 So no, we're not going to succumb to the sickness and the evil that Dr. Keene warned us about a generation ago. 0.78

01:02:23.040 This is a group project, but we're not going to allow the president of the United States of America or any of his ilk.

01:02:28.920 Look at the work that we're doing across this country, and then now we're experiencing some level of reprieve,

01:02:34.620 and now he wants to put his name on our paper.

01:02:37.300 Believe me, Trump doesn't want to put his name on your law, what you've done to Chicago as far as law enforcement goes,

01:02:46.540 and arrests and getting crime down.

01:02:49.540 You want to see crime go down, violent crime go down?

01:02:52.240 Get Trump in there because he's not going to sign off.

01:02:55.920 I want to steal the great work you've done.

01:02:58.480 It ain't going to happen.

01:03:00.100 He would actually make a difference.

01:03:02.520 And how must it feel to be on the Chicago police force when your mayor just called you a sickness?

01:03:11.720 Law enforcement, incarceration and jails are a sickness and they do nothing to bring down crime.

01:03:19.680 What?

01:03:20.280 What?

01:03:21.600 That's your mayor, Chicago. 1.00

01:03:23.740 You thought Lori Lightfoot was a treat.

01:03:26.660 Boy, you got this guy now.

01:03:29.800 And that's what it is.

01:03:31.040 That's why liberals, the left, Democrats, they hate law enforcement,

01:03:36.920 and they do not want you to be safe.

01:03:40.340 All right, take a quick break.

01:03:42.940 We'll be right back with more of the show.

01:03:45.000 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:03:50.280 it's the anthony cumia show entertaining and informative on the red apple podcast network

01:03:58.320 the anthony cumia show and from the keystone state of pennsylvania joaquin how are you my friend

01:04:07.240 hey good evening anthony you know i gotta say something i think that they actually really

01:04:12.980 want gun crimes is at the end of the day their goal is gun control gun confiscation

01:04:18.160 And I wonder how many of these criminals that they, you know, arrest for gun crimes actually wound up being released and committing more gun crimes.

01:04:26.020 Yeah, they can drive those numbers up and they keep them saying we have to get rid of the guns for the children.

01:04:31.540 Well, I'll tell you one thing.

01:04:32.500 If it isn't what you just said, they sure are making it look look that way.

01:04:38.540 I don't know why they're so serious about gun control and we got to stop gun crimes and gun violence.

01:04:48.900 And then when they catch these people with guns committing crimes, they let them back out on the streets or they give them some light sentence.

01:04:57.920 So they put that ankle bracelet thing on.

01:05:01.600 They don't seem very serious at all about taking care of the people that are using the guns for committing these crimes.

01:05:12.700 Instead, like you said, and I believe it, too, they want more gun crimes so they can push this anti-gun legislation.

01:05:22.440 And they've been doing it forever.

01:05:24.140 And I don't know when it's going to end.

01:05:26.280 And this latest assassination of Charlie Kirk really put a monkey wrench into their gears because that is literally a 100-year-old rifle.

01:05:36.940 It's a bolt-action style rifle that the way it works is the same way rifles worked in the late 1800s.

01:05:47.380 So it's not an assault weapon.

01:05:50.700 It is a weapon used for hunting.

01:05:52.880 Like they said, you know, why would you need an assault weapon to hunt?

01:05:58.180 Well, that type of weapon would absolutely be used by a hunter. 0.76

01:06:03.260 So I think it upset them that they really weren't able to use this instance for their gun control garbage.

01:06:11.980 But they're trying.

01:06:13.380 I think AOC said something like, you know, we need this.

01:06:16.960 this is another opportunity where we need gun control and it needs to be discussed and brought

01:06:22.660 up. And, uh, it's just stupid. It's, it wouldn't do anything. The other thing too, is that, you 1.00

01:06:30.740 know, they keep talking about, you know, the temperatures being turned up. Okay. I really

01:06:34.440 want to know where is there really any room for any compromise? Because as far as I'm concerned,

01:06:39.540 the America first MAGA, whatever you want to call it, the Donald Trump agenda, this is the middle, 1.00

01:06:44.200 really the middle agenda for america i mean close the borders uh get rid of the illegal immigrants 0.97

01:06:50.580 if we don't get rid of them they're creating such a burden uh you know they they talk about 1.00

01:06:54.760 the uh medicaid system you know how it's collapsing in new york and california well 1.00

01:07:00.180 they've overburdened it with all these illegals because they want to get the rest of the country 1.00

01:07:04.340 to pay for for this foolishness and really it's it's their end game they want to flood the country 0.93

01:07:10.760 We surrender our sovereignty to the globalist agenda, you know, to the World Economic Forum and whoever else.

01:07:17.380 And, you know, so where is the middle?

01:07:19.900 There's no room for compromise on our side.

01:07:22.480 The far right, like I believe that's what you were just saying.

01:07:27.200 They consider the middle the far right.

01:07:31.500 Like we're pretty central here.

01:07:34.340 We're right in the middle, I think.

01:07:36.260 Well, of course, we lean right.

01:07:38.820 But to say that we're extremists, and that's how they label us, extremists,

01:07:47.360 and it is more middle.

01:07:48.600 And Charlie Kirk was a great example of the middle, the center, a moderate.

01:07:55.940 But, you know, they saw him as this, and they still do.

01:07:58.800 You see, we watched the news during his memorial.

01:08:01.080 They're breaking in on CNN and going, well, let's remember he was a right-wing extremist.

01:08:06.880 right-wing extremist what right-wing extremist sat down in a chair with a microphone giving

01:08:15.220 the opposition a microphone and and hashed things out between the two of them with no violence no

01:08:23.540 disrespect i said it before charlie was always very respectful to the people that he spoke to

01:08:29.400 on these college campuses never demeaning to them and he had some real freaks come up to that

01:08:36.440 microphone and if that isn't moderate i don't know what the hell is what kind of a nazi would 0.92

01:08:45.300 sit there and and have a microphone and debate with a jew on the other side you know hey i really 0.67

01:08:54.960 want to hear what the jewish angle is on uh all of this it just wouldn't happen but they they 0.92

01:09:02.180 insist he was a right-wing extremist they are wrong and uh they're they're they're the ones

01:09:11.040 stoking the flames what we've done is we've refused to actually use labeling to our advantage 0.81

01:09:17.560 because quite frankly they're the ones who act like the nazi little little hitler minion brown 0.83

01:09:22.120 yeah they're running around and these universities are nothing more than training basically basic 0.85

01:09:27.240 training just like our military yep for the communist revolutionaries indoctrinating with

01:09:32.280 their you know ideologies and then people wonder why you know you got a ceo of gm or whatever

01:09:37.420 you know pushing that that uh leftist globalist agenda well they're products of this educational

01:09:43.160 system that's already been co-opted for a couple decades now yeah all it does is propagate this

01:09:47.880 leftist you know communist revolutionary ideology they've been playing the long game joaquin and uh

01:09:54.600 It's very obvious that it's had an effect.

01:09:58.180 It really has.

01:09:58.760 Thanks for the call, bro.

01:10:00.060 Always appreciate Joaquin's phone calls.

01:10:05.020 Yeah, they're calling them to the left.

01:10:08.140 I don't know.

01:10:08.600 There's got to be something worse than that.

01:10:10.960 You know, they're communists.

01:10:14.020 They're Marxists. 0.89

01:10:15.800 They're violent.

01:10:16.860 You know, when I heard Trump talking about classifying Antifa as a terrorist organization, I'm like, yeah, good.

01:10:30.600 They should be.

01:10:32.240 These are violent people. 1.00

01:10:34.580 Thank God they're made up of freakish femboys and soy boys and lesbians, 1.00

01:10:44.660 people that are incapable of actually balling up a fist and hurting anyone with it. 1.00

01:10:51.240 But, again, weapons are available, and they commit horrible crimes against people.

01:11:00.100 So, yeah, when I heard that, sooner the better.

01:11:04.580 They are the people that prevent college campuses from having speakers with differing opinions from them.

01:11:15.880 It stops it.

01:11:17.300 I've seen it plenty of times.

01:11:19.240 And Ann Coulter.

01:11:20.840 Ann is supposed to speak at these colleges, and it's been booked and planned for,

01:11:26.640 and she shows up, and they go, yeah, there's a security risk.

01:11:31.660 I'm sorry.

01:11:32.580 We canceled the event.

01:11:34.580 Oh, yeah, that's great. Thanks.

01:11:37.280 And it's all this Antifa, anti-fascist.

01:11:41.700 You're shutting down a public speaker, someone that wants to speak to the people at that college.

01:11:51.420 You're preventing people from hearing Ann Coulter speak and give her side

01:11:57.780 and engage in lively debate with Ann about her ideology and what have you.

01:12:04.580 and they're called anti-fascists, it's a joke. 0.96

01:12:10.420 It's comical, right up until they kill people. 0.75

01:12:14.800 So hearing that, I was very, very happy that Donald Trump said

01:12:20.920 he will be classifying them as a terrorist organization.

01:12:27.300 And, you know, that shouldn't be the only thing.

01:12:30.980 There are some of these other groups.

01:12:32.260 oh now you want to lock up groups

01:12:35.020 can you just

01:12:37.480 everyone's an expert

01:12:39.280 I should be the guy

01:12:42.160 I should be the guy Trump appoints to just point

01:12:44.820 at people or organizations

01:12:46.820 I'd be a hundred percent

01:12:49.220 yeah that that's not good

01:12:50.960 yeah they need to be locked up

01:12:52.820 I bet I'd be right

01:12:54.840 I'm that good

01:12:56.040 alright

01:12:58.880 maybe

01:12:59.600 maybe not

01:13:01.320 But they do indeed. They're not about what this country was was founded in.

01:13:11.620 I was watching some of these and I got some clips. I'll play a few a little later when Cash Patel was in front of the Senate hearing.

01:13:21.780 And all I'm thinking is the founding fathers, you put them in a DeLorean and you set the time circuits for 2025, you get up to 88 miles an hour, and you'll let the founding fathers look at what's on that in the Capitol, in the Senate, in Congress.

01:13:47.520 They'd be pissed.

01:13:49.720 What did you do?

01:13:51.780 What did you guys do?

01:13:53.220 Why did you let, what is that?

01:13:56.820 Yeah.

01:13:57.580 All right, back in moments with more of the show.

01:14:00.860 Stick around.

01:14:01.840 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:14:08.200 It's the Anthony Cumia Show.

01:14:10.540 Entertaining and informative.

01:14:12.540 On the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:14:16.400 The Anthony Cumia Show.

01:14:17.860 and uh i really i've said this uh many times i'm embarrassed that i have to be under the umbrella

01:14:27.500 of boomer i was right at the tail end right at the end i was almost gen z was gen x x y z gen x

01:14:41.940 Yeah, that came after Boomer.

01:14:43.800 And I was more Gen X than Boomer, that's for sure.

01:14:47.240 Not like I was growing up and, you know,

01:14:49.820 I wasn't one of those guys warming my hands by a garbage pail on fire,

01:14:59.340 singing doo-wop songs.

01:15:01.740 No, no, I was much more a Gen Xer. 1.00

01:15:05.740 Because boomers are embarrassing. 0.99

01:15:08.240 their lack of ability to use any type of technology they don't know anything about 1.00

01:15:15.700 cryptocurrency or ai or well more importantly video games um and they've gotten very cranky

01:15:26.960 no one wants to be around them anymore most of them are in um retirement communities

01:15:33.940 and they they've gotten this mission they've gotten this call from the left come out 0.99

01:15:41.640 help protest with us it's important and they go oh importance yes i can miss my programs

01:15:50.160 i'll go out and and i'll who are we protesting donald trump he's a racist just hold this sign 0.95

01:15:57.200 okay so he's a racist yeah yeah but my program we get it grandma and grandpa's even worse 0.99

01:16:09.080 you were a man once the woman is just she's always been you know whatevs 0.57

01:16:15.680 but i got to assume that guy was a man once and now he's out there we gotta do what's right for

01:16:25.260 the uh what are we doing here just hold the sign gramps i'll give you some brand new right out of

01:16:33.480 the tube tennis balls for the front of your walker how about that i'm a little rascal on my little 0.98

01:16:40.420 rascal so uh this uh this boomer woman and this is one of so many i've seen similar clips to this

01:16:52.080 so many times somebody that's alt journalist let's say most likely on the right because

01:17:01.740 they're not screaming and yelling and all emotional they walk up to one of these people

01:17:07.240 that are protesting and it's it's boomers sometimes and they ask them a question a

01:17:14.440 simple question something that if you're protesting you should know be a little knowledgeable 0.96

01:17:22.920 if you're going to go out there and spend your time away from your programs with a dumb sign in

01:17:30.400 your hand you should know what the hell you're out there for but they don't they never have an 0.70

01:17:36.460 answer to anything and their big thing is when they get tripped up by the person asking a question

01:17:43.980 because they're so difficult, they walk away and say,

01:17:47.400 I'm not playing your little game.

01:17:49.640 I'm not falling for your clever ruse.

01:17:52.940 And meanwhile, it's a simple question.

01:17:56.200 It's based on common sense or readily available fact to research. 0.95

01:18:02.580 So here's this boomer woman, and she cannot answer the simple question,

01:18:08.020 why were there no riots after the Charlie Kirk murder, 0.85

01:18:13.440 Even though we had millions of supporters, very passionate supporters, and we had watched heroes of the left, like St. George of Floyd, and they wrecked the joint.

01:18:30.240 They burnt places down, looting, murder.

01:18:33.640 So a simple question, why?

01:18:36.080 Why no riots after Charlie Kirk?

01:18:39.620 Let's listen to her answer.

01:18:40.920 In your opinion, why do you think there haven't been riots across the country for what happened to Charlie Kirk like we saw after George Floyd was killed or the L.A. riots or any number of other riots?

01:18:52.360 I think it has to do with his affiliation with President Trump, who is very uncomfortable with a lot of us.

01:18:57.760 That's why there haven't been riots?

01:18:59.600 I think people are not as sympathetic to someone who is sympathetic to Trump these days.

01:19:05.760 Oh, well, there's been millions of people doing like prayer vigils and peaceful gatherings.

01:19:10.500 Trump refused to do anything about a state senator from our state.

01:19:16.500 He did very little to children that were killed while they were in mass in our state.

01:19:23.180 I don't want to have anything to do with that man or anyone who supports him in any way.

01:19:28.500 I don't even know what Trump has to do with this.

01:19:30.700 You're saying there wasn't riots across.

01:19:32.320 He has millions of supporters.

01:19:33.640 Charlie Kirk has millions of supporters across the country.

01:19:36.020 I'm asking, why did those conservatives that support him not destroy the country and burn down cities like we saw the left do?

01:19:46.480 Sorry, you're not going to bait me with that.

01:19:49.820 Bait you? It's a very straightforward question, right?

01:19:53.020 It may be a very straightforward question. You'll have to ask one of those people. Don't ask me.

01:19:57.400 Okay, well, we did. But thank you very much for your time. I appreciate it.

01:20:00.820 yeah the guy first of all the guy's cordial he's respectful to the people and then when they hit

01:20:08.640 that wall because she tried all kinds of diversions the reason people didn't riot

01:20:16.780 when charlie kirk was assassinated was donald trump because they don't like someone that's

01:20:23.780 tied to donald trump it's not like he didn't have supporters there weren't enough people to

01:20:30.440 riot is pretty much what she said well he's with trump and people hate trump so there aren't enough

01:20:36.760 people to riot and loot and murder and then the guy put her straight no he's got millions of

01:20:42.500 supporters worldwide and then put it to her again so why i don't know what trump has to do with this

01:20:49.560 why haven't we seen riots and then the ah the fake nervous laugh and then the assumption that

01:21:00.000 they're having the wool pulled over

01:21:02.020 their eyes. Some kind of a trick

01:21:04.060 must be in play

01:21:05.940 because I don't have an answer

01:21:07.700 and it can't possibly be 1.00

01:21:09.780 that I'm a moron 0.99

01:21:11.660 it must be that he's 1.00

01:21:13.860 playing a trick on me

01:21:15.320 it can't be that the

01:21:17.800 answer is well because the right

01:21:19.700 and people that support someone like

01:21:21.720 Charlie Kirk are

01:21:23.420 peaceful human

01:21:25.760 beings and not

01:21:28.000 violent animals

01:21:29.720 that riot at the drop of a hat.

01:21:33.460 So, ha, ha, ha, you're not getting me with that.

01:21:38.100 Not this time.

01:21:41.700 Oh.

01:21:43.700 And that, you can watch videos like that for hours.

01:21:50.440 Hours on end.

01:21:53.180 I was on a show just a couple of days ago,

01:21:56.320 And some transgender person was bad-mouthing my show and saying, you know, political, you're ragging my opinions and my show and saying that I was lying, whatever it was.

01:22:15.920 And I asked for an example. Well, if you're so knowledgeable about my program and what I do, give me one example of what was dishonest or a lie or hack or whatever the transgender person was using. 0.98

01:22:34.840 And I got the same thing. 1.00

01:22:37.520 Oh, no, I'm not going to play that game.

01:22:40.680 What game?

01:22:42.760 Having a debate?

01:22:44.800 Answering a question?

01:22:46.500 Honestly?

01:22:48.060 That's what they do.

01:22:49.980 That's what the left does.

01:22:52.660 They will not answer a question.

01:22:54.820 And when cornered, they accuse you of some kind of underhanded play. 0.97

01:23:00.580 Go screw. 0.98

01:23:02.700 It's embarrassing. 0.99

01:23:04.840 It is embarrassing. 1.00

01:23:08.660 And the, like I said, the old boomers, 1.00

01:23:11.420 they have turned into hypocrites. 0.99

01:23:20.120 They think it's the 60s again. 0.99

01:23:23.420 And they're protesting the war.

01:23:26.220 And they're like children, in a sense,

01:23:28.500 that you could just give them a sign, put it in their hand.

01:23:31.740 if it gets them out of the house to chit-chat with anyone else

01:23:36.040 but the pharmacist?

01:23:38.700 Isn't that a treat when you get behind one of them?

01:23:42.340 So I should take this.

01:23:45.340 All the instructions are written down, ma'am.

01:23:48.000 So, well, I need to know...

01:23:51.380 I think you're just standing there tapping your foot.

01:23:55.180 Tapping your foot on some fossilized

01:23:57.640 please keep six feet away sticker

01:24:00.340 that's worn off the floor like some hieroglyphics.

01:24:04.740 Oh, my God, have we been through some stuff.

01:24:09.780 Blake, Minnesota, boy, I apologize for your state.

01:24:16.040 I don't apologize for your state.

01:24:17.540 I apologize to you that you have to live there, Blake.

01:24:20.220 What's up?

01:24:21.460 Well, sir, I've lived there my entire life, and it stinks.

01:24:24.580 But, yeah, no, I saw President Trump's speech night at Charlie's memorial.

01:24:32.240 I like he makes it about himself like every single time.

01:24:36.700 I'm like, can this guy just not be so narcissistic?

01:24:39.760 They're Trump. Yeah. Yeah. No, I agree. 0.66

01:24:42.700 I agree. But I explained earlier, you know, he's a narcissist and he's not one of these professional narcissists.

01:24:48.660 Because if you don't think Obama is a narcissist and Clinton, anyone that thinks they can run the free world has to be pretty full of themselves.

01:24:58.220 The only difference is Trump has no ability to to try to express his narcissism in whimsical ways, in ways that make him sound educated or or these other presidents have been able to do that.

01:25:19.260 He's just Trump.

01:25:20.420 He's no more or less narcissistic than any other president.

01:25:24.640 But I know what you mean.

01:25:25.840 I was watching some of the – I cringe.

01:25:28.140 I would say 75% to 80% of the time Trump is speaking, I'm kind of curled up in a ball.

01:25:38.600 I have that feeling like when my brother used to stretch a rubber band and aim it at my face.

01:25:44.060 And you're like, you just know something bad's coming.

01:25:47.200 And that's how I feel watching Trump speak.

01:25:50.500 I get it.

01:25:51.220 But I support him as president.

01:25:53.880 Like, well, you know, today it's the most greatest day ever.

01:25:58.840 You know, it's Jackson Kirk's memorial.

01:26:02.080 Greatest day.

01:26:04.040 Dude, come on now.

01:26:05.840 I know.

01:26:07.040 Making jokes.

01:26:09.280 It is.

01:26:11.140 He's so inappropriate.

01:26:13.400 But, like, we're building a ballroom,

01:26:15.200 and it's the most beautiful ballroom it's like dude come on when he did that yeah the the media

01:26:21.720 asked him a woman or someone asked him you know hey charlie was a good friend of yours how are

01:26:26.700 you holding up uh pretty good pretty good you see the trucks here we're building a wonderful

01:26:32.220 and it was like whoa what the hell was that i wouldn't do that if they were talking about

01:26:38.160 someone i hated you you would say something about you know well it's a samba day but uh right into 0.93

01:26:46.260 the ballroom construction he's just i think he's he's got some autism he's a narcissist his

01:26:55.920 lifestyle the the way he's lived since he was a child till now kind of it's not a real person

01:27:04.620 he didn't live a life like a real person i don't think he really knows how to how you're supposed

01:27:11.000 to act in front of people and what you're supposed to and more importantly not supposed to say

01:27:15.780 he doesn't even know how to wear a tie is that true like i never noticed your single windsor 0.95

01:27:24.360 and your freaking ties down past your freaking you know belt like come on bud 0.94

01:27:30.420 yeah yeah no look i i agree there are plenty of things about trump that i cringe but i support 0.98

01:27:39.320 him as the president i think this country got trump when they absolutely needed donald trump

01:27:47.740 to be president yeah yeah absolutely besides kamala good lord yeah yeah that i could i would

01:27:54.380 rather have like a rhododendron as the president more so than than kamala harris blake thanks man

01:28:02.000 yeah there you go okay oh geez margie oh where'd you go to harby's uh what time is it let me say

01:28:13.260 44 okay i got a little bit of time here before the next break i think we could talk about um 0.98

01:28:19.880 Donald Trump getting a little fire under Pam Bondi's butt. 1.00

01:28:26.900 That butt. 1.00

01:28:29.060 She's, I couldn't believe she was 60. 1.00

01:28:31.740 I know we're supposed to be professional here.

01:28:34.760 This is a professional political talk radio station. 0.52

01:28:39.520 We're not supposed to talk about Pam Bondi in a sexual way. 1.00

01:28:45.660 But damn, she's taking good care of herself. 0.99

01:28:49.880 That's what I think, anyway. 0.99

01:28:52.340 But it looks like Donald Trump was kind of giving her an ultimatum, right?

01:29:01.900 We've been sitting around since he got in office, and we've heard all these things.

01:29:07.380 The Epstein file, remember that Epstein file thing where it was being released,

01:29:15.720 and they gave the folders to social media influencers

01:29:18.760 and it was all redacted stuff we've seen before

01:29:24.020 and they were making a big thing of it.

01:29:27.060 And now we're, you know, months into this presidency

01:29:31.200 and Bondi hasn't done anything.

01:29:34.140 Take care of where's all the stuff?

01:29:35.900 Adam Schiff.

01:29:37.200 Adam Schiff lied, lied about the Russia collusion thing.

01:29:42.880 He got in front of Congress, in front of the Senate.

01:29:47.660 He definitely lied.

01:29:52.600 He was up there talking about Trump.

01:29:54.880 He's seen the evidence.

01:29:57.360 He'll be presenting evidence of Russian collusion.

01:30:00.800 And it was all lies.

01:30:02.560 And what happens to them?

01:30:03.820 Nothing.

01:30:04.960 Nothing at all.

01:30:05.900 so um he put out a uh a post donald trump directed right to pam bondy i reviewed over 30 statements

01:30:17.240 and posts saying that essentially quote same old story as last time all talk no action nothing is

01:30:24.160 being done what about comey adam shifty shift leticia they're all guilty as hell but nothing

01:30:31.780 is being done end quote then we almost put a democrat supported u.s attorney in virginia 0.55

01:30:38.900 with a really bad republican past a woke rhino who was never going to do his job that's why two

01:30:46.040 of the worst dem senators pushed him so hard he even lied to the media and said he uh quit

01:30:52.100 and that there was no case no i fired him and there was a great case and many layers and legal

01:31:00.680 pundits uh say so lindsey is a really good lawyer and likes you a lot we can uh we can't delay any

01:31:09.720 longer it's killing our reputation and credibility they impeached me twice and indicted me five times

01:31:16.420 over nothing justice must be served now president djt yeah yeah uh what are you doing pam

01:31:29.080 that right there and and i've seen some speculation about this but i don't believe it

01:31:35.000 that this was supposed to be a text directly to pam bondy

01:31:39.680 and trump screwed up and put it out on social media uh who knows maybe i'll believe anything

01:31:48.760 these days or nothing at all but uh i can't be sure of that and uh it it's it looks it's worded

01:31:57.180 in a way and formatted in a way where

01:31:59.160 it looks like more of a text

01:32:00.800 to Pam Bondi than

01:32:02.120 a public post

01:32:03.860 but maybe he did write it as a

01:32:07.180 text and then said I got a light 1.00

01:32:09.100 of fire under her ass 1.00

01:32:10.160 let's put it out as a social 1.00

01:32:13.020 media post because she's

01:32:15.100 she hasn't done anything

01:32:16.420 and Trump supporters are very frustrated

01:32:18.900 one of the big promises

01:32:20.880 during his campaign

01:32:22.800 was I am going to look into

01:32:25.020 this we will investigate

01:32:27.000 these people, like Comey and Schiff and all the rest of them.

01:32:32.660 And we've seen nothing.

01:32:34.180 And they're just emboldened.

01:32:35.800 I mean, you see Schiff during this Kash Patel hearing.

01:32:41.320 He's just, again, lying.

01:32:44.020 They all just lie, and they get away with it.

01:32:49.440 So it would be nice to see something done.

01:32:52.120 And if not, this could be one of those last warning things with Bondi, too.

01:32:59.000 Like, hey, pack up your stuff.

01:33:03.400 We got someone who might want to do something about this.

01:33:06.460 It's always been about his cabinet, too.

01:33:09.200 The first administration was just crazy because he's a game show host.

01:33:14.580 He's a former real estate developer game show host.

01:33:19.400 and picking a cabinet was a little rough but this time around i mean he went four years as president

01:33:27.600 four years talking to people and and trying to vindicate himself and still being well within

01:33:36.180 those political circles and then he gets elected he should know by now who is going to do the job

01:33:42.880 that you appoint them to do, and who won't?

01:33:45.760 And Bondi so far has been a lemon.

01:33:49.960 Just we're not seeing anything coming out of Pam Bondi.

01:33:53.640 So maybe that is.

01:33:55.500 Maybe that's do something or pack it.

01:33:59.120 Pack it in, babe.

01:34:01.420 Back in a matter of moments, stick around. 0.96

01:34:04.040 More of the show in two ticks of a lamb's tail.

01:34:09.540 Back in the flash.

01:34:11.720 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:34:17.660 It's the Anthony Cumia Show.

01:34:20.160 Entertaining and informative on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:34:26.780 The Anthony Cumia Show.

01:34:31.200 Live from my house.

01:34:34.260 I'm on dog detail.

01:34:36.780 My girl went to New York City.

01:34:40.820 for the week pretty much and uh we got a six-month-old belgian malinois

01:34:47.200 um oof it is a chore it is a full-time job full-time job with this thing every second he's

01:34:58.260 not outside the studio barking i'm counting my blessings but every time uh i i'm not doing a

01:35:06.740 show i'm out there doing dog daddy things i swear he's a lot of fun but you know it's a full-time

01:35:17.860 job it's like having a kid that isn't so smart for a dog he's very smart but for a kid you just

01:35:25.240 gotta make sure he's not eating the furniture the kids do that i don't have any maybe they do

01:35:31.560 so there were these uh senate hearings and um they were trying to trip up cash patel

01:35:41.100 look i got some issues with cash patel but uh as far as the fbi goes a little better than

01:35:48.180 biden's fbi that's for sure and much better than uh obama's fbi

01:35:55.120 so they were trying to get him and cash he didn't care he was just laying into them

01:36:03.460 didn't care if the gavel's being smashed up on the big desk he wasn't going to let them get away

01:36:10.160 with uh with slamming him and calling him incompetent and saying the fbi is compromised

01:36:15.600 and all the stuff they always do anyway.

01:36:18.900 So Senator Hirono from Hawaii asks about this pull-up qualification.

01:36:29.320 I guess there's, in order to qualify down at Quantico to be in the FBI,

01:36:33.840 you have to be able to do a certain type of pull-up that Hirono has decided is sexist.

01:36:41.340 Somehow this pull-up is much harder for women to do than men.

01:36:45.220 And she asks Cash Patel about this certain pull-up.

01:36:50.100 Senator Hirono, hey.

01:36:53.440 Senator Britt.

01:36:54.660 Yes.

01:36:55.360 Well, before I begin, I want to thank Senator Hirono for what she said.

01:36:58.040 No, this is Senator Britt's thing.

01:37:00.240 The other one is Hirono's clip first.

01:37:03.600 Here you go.

01:37:04.040 Thanks.

01:37:05.720 You know, you've been asked some questions about changes to your hiring standard,

01:37:10.340 and including college degrees and possibly the age.

01:37:16.980 But, you know, one question I had is that you are now requiring applicants

01:37:28.380 to be able to do a certain kind of pull-ups,

01:37:32.860 which a lot of women cannot because of physiological differences. 1.00

01:37:37.960 Are you requiring these kinds of pull-ups?

01:37:43.900 We are requiring a physical program at BFTC at Quantico because FBI agents carrying guns in the field have to chase down bad guys and do really hard work.

01:37:53.180 The physical fitness standards of those agents are being appropriately assessed.

01:37:55.680 So are you requiring these kinds of pull-ups?

01:37:58.760 We are requiring everybody to pass the 1811 standards at BFTC.

01:38:03.280 If you want to chase down a bad guy and put him in handcuffs, you better be able to do a pull-up.

01:38:09.640 The reason I ask is that there are concerns about whether or not being able to do these kinds of harsh pull-ups is really required of FBI agents.

01:38:19.560 Doing one pull-up is not harsh, and there are always medical exemptions to that.

01:38:24.200 I love it.

01:38:24.900 I'm greatly concerned by the state of the FBI under your control.

01:38:27.940 In fact, you are willing to do that.

01:38:29.140 End it there.

01:38:30.420 Yeah.

01:38:30.940 Yeah. So physiological differences. Let's hear how Senator Britt uses Hirono's own words against her talking about women, men in women's sports.

01:38:45.520 Check this out. Senator Britt. Yes. Well, before I begin, I want to thank Senator Hirono for what she said, acknowledging that there are physical differences between men and women talking about that.

01:38:56.880 Women wouldn't be able to do as many pull-ups, and I think that she was making a case here that there should be different standards.

01:39:03.560 There's a thing called Title IX, and this is why we continue to say we should have biological men in men's sports and biological women in women's sports.

01:39:12.040 And so I look forward to utilizing that to talk to all of my colleagues on the other side of the aisle.

01:39:17.920 Maybe they will stand with us in helping us protect women's sports.

01:39:21.100 I think she made a great argument there for it. 0.74

01:39:24.140 Moving on to today.

01:39:25.320 Perfect. I'm so glad one of them picked up on that, that she said there are physiological differences between men and women that would preclude women from being able to do these these types of pull ups that they have to do to qualify to be in the FBI.

01:39:44.540 And Patel had a great comeback from that, saying, yeah, if you're going to be an FBI agent in the field, you're going to have to be physically fit to a standard that we dictate.

01:39:59.980 And this pull-up is in that program.

01:40:05.280 You have to be able to do it. 1.00

01:40:07.000 Well, women can't do it. 1.00

01:40:08.020 Well, then men shouldn't be in women's sports. 0.95

01:40:10.320 So, Senator Britt coming up with that was an awesome little twist.

01:40:15.860 Oh, very dishonorable, Mr. Bruno.

01:40:19.900 Back in a flash with more of the show.

01:40:23.260 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:40:28.960 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:40:35.440 The Anthony Cumia Show.

01:40:36.900 thank you for your support

01:40:40.220 greatly appreciated

01:40:42.340 let's go to JB

01:40:43.960 in my home state of

01:40:46.580 South Carolina what's up man

01:40:48.360 hey what's up

01:40:50.840 Anthony

01:40:51.200 hey

01:40:51.860 I was actually going to use this opportunity to point out

01:40:56.760 what I spoke with you earlier

01:40:58.760 about this week

01:40:59.860 this is actually Ava

01:41:01.420 oh god

01:41:03.540 I'm not going to have that

01:41:06.520 conversation that's another uh part of uh the dabble verse it's called i don't know if anyone

01:41:15.440 even cares or understands i uh i'm a frequent guest on another show and it involves subject

01:41:23.500 matter from that show and not this one so you can't uh call me and fool me on my my radio show

01:41:33.540 my broadcast radio show do it on a podcast i'm not gonna deal with that chimney cricket

01:41:42.640 steve from jersey what's up steve hey anthony uh straight to the point

01:41:51.100 charlie was a hero a brave hero and a warrior all right getting the message out but but the

01:41:59.260 The problem is we've got to get smart.

01:42:01.220 Common sense, patriotic conservatives have got to get smart here and start making ourselves sitting ducks.

01:42:07.340 The other side is armed. 0.94

01:42:08.980 They're evil.

01:42:09.480 The American communists running the Democratic Party and their base that they are putting calls out to. 0.86

01:42:15.280 So here's my suggestion. 0.52

01:42:17.240 Cut it out with the live events.

01:42:19.720 We can go.

01:42:20.280 They recruit largely online and virtual.

01:42:23.180 I've heard people say, well, you know, they have live events and they hardly draw a crowd.

01:42:28.100 Yeah, they don't need to. They do a lot of their recruiting online. We can do the same thing.

01:42:32.860 You've heard of Zoom. You've heard of Teams. All right. That's not us being cowardice, Anthony.

01:42:37.720 That's our side saying we're not going to make our leaders be sitting ducks like Trump or Charlie.

01:42:44.540 We're not going to make our followers like Corey Compitor be sitting ducks.

01:42:48.620 We're protecting ourselves until the other side purges itself of that evil element.

01:42:54.440 There's a secondary point here, too, to why they should be virtual.

01:42:57.680 All right. I looked up Turning Point is a nonprofit. They have a donor base.

01:43:02.080 I don't think it looks good. Perception, Anthony. Remember Perception?

01:43:04.940 Sure.

01:43:05.620 Perception could be here they are traveling all around, the leaders on these planes, and they're living the high life.

01:43:11.280 I'm not saying Charlie did that. I'm not saying he took more than was his share.

01:43:14.740 And certainly for running that organization, he and the wife should get paid well.

01:43:18.600 The point is it does. It's a bad look. So virtual events moving forward.

01:43:23.580 So that's my main point.

01:43:25.540 A couple of the other things you said just before, I can quickly comment,

01:43:29.120 but I'll let you decide that.

01:43:31.840 Give me one.

01:43:34.020 Let me just answer the virtual thing.

01:43:39.080 I do understand that it's a bad look whenever you use money for personal stuff,

01:43:46.040 and I guess it's his thing.

01:43:49.320 It's his gig.

01:43:50.760 It was.

01:43:51.140 And whatever money is coming into it, he's got to live.

01:43:55.620 He's got a wife and kids.

01:43:58.400 So I don't really fault him using any of that money to have a house and food for his kids and whatnot.

01:44:07.920 And virtual events, dude, they just don't have that passion and energy as a live event.

01:44:15.660 It just cannot replace a live arena event or a big outdoor event.

01:44:23.140 I know the danger's there, but you're just not going to get people that just want to log in.

01:44:28.620 It feels so plastic, you know?

01:44:33.020 It doesn't feel like you're around and amongst the people that you feel a connection with, you know?

01:44:40.300 I understand, but then how is the left so successful? 1.00

01:44:43.800 Because they're idiots. 1.00

01:44:44.640 They don't care. 1.00

01:44:45.660 They don't care about connection with people, by the way, when they're protesting and marching down the street.

01:44:50.820 They don't care who's next to them. 0.81

01:44:53.060 They just care that it's another freak that believes exactly the same thing they believe, which is nonsense.

01:45:00.180 So, yeah, there's there's when when you see the old Trump rallies and, you know, even this event, the Charlie Kirk Memorial, it's people getting together.

01:45:12.600 There's a shared thing, and there's a feeling that reverberates in these arenas, you know?

01:45:20.640 Yeah, well, you make a good point.

01:45:23.000 I understand.

01:45:23.860 I don't hold against Charlie or the wife to make what they're entitled to.

01:45:28.500 They put together this organization.

01:45:31.020 I think the wife was involved behind the scenes.

01:45:33.540 My other point here, I'll quickly.

01:45:34.780 Donald Trump toned down the rhetoric.

01:45:37.380 He could be less bombastic, less braggadocious, less narcissistic.

01:45:42.240 All right. He less exaggerate. He could exaggerate less. Anthony, they'd still hate him.

01:45:48.060 You need to look back. I'm a late baby boomer like you.

01:45:50.740 Every Republican that's either run for president or held the office in our lifetime has been attacked viciously.

01:45:57.880 All right. Going back to since Ike. All right. So and let me add to this.

01:46:02.680 They love this guy. I'm talking about Trump now. Just go back 15 years. They love the guy.

01:46:07.400 Oh, yeah. It's the policies, Anthony. They left when you were talking about communists, right?

01:46:13.760 Anybody who doesn't see the world the way they do power and control.

01:46:17.820 We want freedom and liberty and the American way of life. And they're just not on board.

01:46:22.060 They're going to hate anybody who from the past or got moving forward.

01:46:26.020 And Trump could do all those things that the other folks are saying would make a damn bit of difference.

01:46:30.140 And by the way, where I left off with my call last week about Pam Bondi, I said I'm starting to think she wasn't up to the tab.

01:46:37.400 And she was his second choice there.

01:46:40.620 I'm done, sir.

01:46:41.280 Thank you.

01:46:41.780 Thank you, Steve.

01:46:43.600 She doesn't have the belly for it.

01:46:47.400 Yeah, perhaps, perhaps. 0.74

01:46:49.720 Good points.

01:46:51.120 I get it.

01:46:52.080 And I do agree.

01:46:53.160 It doesn't matter, you know, who it doesn't have to even be Trump necessarily.

01:46:59.980 They would look at someone with his policies and hate him anyway.

01:47:05.580 It's worse that it's Trump because they all feel he didn't pay his dues to be the president.

01:47:13.180 He didn't work through the system, start out as a comptroller in some small town, work his way up.

01:47:21.780 Senate and vice president just went in and went, I'm going to be the president.

01:47:28.420 And that was it.

01:47:29.620 And he's hated for it.

01:47:31.940 We knew there was that Beltway bro thing.

01:47:36.560 I think we always knew.

01:47:39.460 No outsiders allowed.

01:47:41.480 Carlin did a bit about it, you know.

01:47:43.840 It's a big club and you ain't in it.

01:47:47.240 You're not invited.

01:47:49.340 Yep.

01:47:50.180 That's exactly what it is.

01:47:51.820 And Trump totally flipped that over and walked in.

01:47:57.960 And all of a sudden they got to call him Mr. President.

01:48:00.980 that alone pissed him off.

01:48:04.320 That alone got him all mad.

01:48:07.100 What is he doing?

01:48:08.220 He can't do that.

01:48:09.180 Well, he did.

01:48:10.280 Now what?

01:48:11.920 And the only reason Trump did get in,

01:48:14.540 this is ancient history, 0.63

01:48:17.060 is because the lifers,

01:48:21.960 the politicians that had been in there 0.99

01:48:24.100 doing the same crap to all of us for generations, 0.99

01:48:29.160 we were tired of it. 1.00

01:48:30.980 and Goofy Donald comes down the escalator.

01:48:34.460 I'm going to be president.

01:48:35.880 I'm like, yeah, okay.

01:48:37.640 Give it a whirl.

01:48:39.100 See what happens.

01:48:40.180 Who cares?

01:48:41.340 How much damage could he do?

01:48:44.200 And that first term was great,

01:48:46.660 right up until they introduced a plague on the world.

01:48:52.940 And, yeah, the second term, I got no problems with what's going on.

01:48:57.520 I have no problems with what Trump is doing with his second term right now. 0.98

01:49:03.620 They seem to be doing as much as they can on getting illegals out. 0.91

01:49:10.540 I've talked to people. 0.99

01:49:11.900 I feel the same way.

01:49:13.160 I would love it if they were throwing out a million a day.

01:49:17.580 That is absolutely not feasible.

01:49:20.640 It is an impossible task.

01:49:23.100 but to see them actually throwing people out

01:49:27.560 and you know they are

01:49:30.120 because the left is livid about it

01:49:32.220 I like it

01:49:34.060 yeah more

01:49:35.200 but he's got

01:49:37.440 over three years left

01:49:40.060 let's see what he can do

01:49:41.340 and

01:49:42.760 the other policies

01:49:45.700 I like what he's doing

01:49:47.280 as far as the tariffs go

01:49:49.100 that whenever he puts tariffs up

01:49:51.940 uh everyone cries and screams that it's going to make everything more expensive

01:49:56.660 and then the other country folds like all right we're gonna lower our tariffs and

01:50:02.400 it's it's never put in place as a permanent thing here's a forever tariff never gets removed

01:50:10.520 it's a tactic it's a bargaining tool that he's using and all these countries that have had

01:50:18.800 tariffs put on him have pulled back and said all right nato we finally have the other nato

01:50:25.700 countries putting in money not enough the united states is still overwhelmingly funding nato

01:50:32.660 but it's way better than it was under any other president any other president trump

01:50:40.580 went and went yeah well you want to deal with russia then we're out he turned his back

01:50:47.820 on our allies our allies have been screwing us

01:50:52.800 so i like the policies and they're directly against

01:50:58.200 what these lifer politicians have been doing for years

01:51:01.340 so i'm fine with it i like what he's doing

01:51:05.760 uh goofy yeah narcissistic yeah inappropriate absolutely

01:51:13.000 but I kind of like the patio thing he did

01:51:17.180 out in the Rose Garden

01:51:17.980 it was just grass, he didn't rip up the roses

01:51:21.160 he put it out there

01:51:22.760 I saw pictures of it one night

01:51:24.340 they were having a little cotillion out there

01:51:26.100 the tables are lit up

01:51:27.800 it looks like a great restaurant you'd want to go to

01:51:30.280 not just some grassy field

01:51:32.600 where from what I hear

01:51:33.860 if there was rain the night before

01:51:36.280 the reporters are standing there

01:51:38.080 with their shoes getting filled with mud

01:51:40.680 which is funny, I get that

01:51:43.420 But it looks great.

01:51:44.780 And all they did was pound him about it.

01:51:47.020 What's he doing?

01:51:48.000 He's ripping up the rose garden.

01:51:50.940 No, he's not.

01:51:52.940 And every president does something.

01:51:55.000 Who put the bowling alley in?

01:51:57.660 I don't even know.

01:51:58.980 One of those early 1900s guys.

01:52:02.720 I want a bowling alley in the White House.

01:52:06.500 All right.

01:52:07.440 They put it in.

01:52:09.540 So, you know, whatever.

01:52:12.680 He's the president, and he's Donald Trump.

01:52:16.300 You have to take both of those things and realize what that means.

01:52:22.100 Okay, kids, back in moments.

01:52:24.840 Stick around.

01:52:26.420 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:52:32.720 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:52:38.780 The Anthony Cumia Show.

01:52:42.680 I watched J.D. Vance speaking at the Charlie Kirk Memorial earlier,

01:52:50.360 but I don't want to play that.

01:52:52.460 It's just more of the same.

01:52:54.260 It's nice.

01:52:55.600 It's all nice.

01:52:57.180 They get up there and they talk about how wonderful it is.

01:53:02.600 Truth be told, Trump's the only one that was really,

01:53:05.140 they say he was inappropriate and and uh not as spiritual i guess but all the rest of them just

01:53:14.260 got up and yeah they talked about charlie and how awesome he was and um how what a difference he

01:53:20.740 made uh but trump's saying yeah i don't i don't forgive enemies my opponents i hate them and i

01:53:29.340 kind of like that i i really kind of like that but there is a clip from jd that i want to play

01:53:34.580 And it's the no unity speech he was giving the other day.

01:53:40.440 These Democrats and left wing communists, they're the ones now saying, hey, let's get together.

01:53:50.220 We got to bring it together.

01:53:51.520 We're all Americans.

01:53:52.880 Let's turn down the rhetoric and this, that and the other thing.

01:53:56.520 And no, no, we've all heard that before.

01:54:02.300 and we go back to being nice because that's what we do politically especially and then

01:54:10.320 more of our people get injured or murdered or uh they they are the party of violence i'm sorry

01:54:19.680 i'm sorry i even have to say that but i do so jd was talking about uh unity and the fact that

01:54:27.780 it's impossible to to speak to these people in a civil fashion to try to unify with them and

01:54:35.400 understand we're all americans and because they're out of their minds listen to a jd

01:54:41.380 there is no unity with people who scream at children over their parents politics

01:54:47.720 there is no unity with someone who lies about what charlie kirk said in order to excuse his murder

01:54:53.700 There is no unity with someone who harasses an innocent family the day after the father of that family lost a dear friend.

01:55:02.020 There is no unity with the people who celebrate Charlie Kirk's assassination.

01:55:07.020 And there is no unity with the people who fund these articles, who pay the salaries of these terrorist sympathizers,

01:55:13.520 who argue that Charlie Kirk, a loving husband and father, deserved a shot to the neck because he spoke words with which they disagreed.

01:55:23.700 Did you know that the George Soros Open Society Foundation and the Ford Foundation,

01:55:30.040 the groups who funded that disgusting article justifying Charlie's death,

01:55:34.700 do you know they benefit from generous tax treatment?

01:55:37.360 They are literally subsidized by you and me, the American taxpayer.

01:55:42.580 And how do they reward us? 0.57

01:55:43.920 By setting fire to the house built by the American family over 250 years.

01:55:49.080 I'm desperate for our country to be united in condemnation of the actions and the ideas that killed my friend.

01:55:57.300 I want it so badly that I will tell you a difficult truth.

01:56:01.740 We can only have it with people who acknowledge that political violence is unacceptable.

01:56:07.700 And when we work to dismantle the institutions that promote violence and terrorism in our own country.

01:56:16.600 Yeah.

01:56:18.000 Yes.

01:56:19.860 Exactly.

01:56:21.740 I mean, I know a lot of people have problems with J.D. Vance also.

01:56:25.820 But you'd be hard-pressed to find a problem with what he just said there.

01:56:32.320 They don't want unity.

01:56:34.760 They'll cry about it.

01:56:36.740 They'll say that the right are the violent ones.

01:56:39.680 We've heard it before.

01:56:40.880 Right-wing violence is the most dangerous existential threat in America.

01:56:48.240 Really?

01:56:49.080 who's doing the shooting

01:56:51.120 who's been doing the shooting

01:56:53.780 doesn't seem to be

01:56:55.840 right wing violence

01:56:56.940 all they've been able to do on the left is

01:56:59.760 try so hard

01:57:01.360 to twist and turn

01:57:03.300 the evidence

01:57:05.160 of who are perpetrating

01:57:07.860 these shootings into

01:57:09.640 saying they were right wing

01:57:11.420 when they so obviously

01:57:14.020 weren't

01:57:14.460 I know a lot of people on the left and the right

01:57:17.280 I don't know many people on the right that are dating transgender people.

01:57:25.600 I really don't.

01:57:27.320 Got to be honest.

01:57:28.900 A lot of them are liberals.

01:57:31.680 And the fact that they're the ones trying to make it seem like the people on the right don't want unity is insane.

01:57:41.840 Because we've tried over and over again.

01:57:45.200 And they just keep doing the same thing.

01:57:49.560 Violence, looting, burning, assault, and murder. 0.97

01:57:54.820 They tried killing Trump. 0.74

01:57:57.380 They succeeded with Charlie Kirk.

01:58:00.840 You just see political violence all the time.

01:58:03.100 This guy that took a pot shot at ABC News affiliate in California

01:58:07.640 because they were mad at Jimmy Kimmel being canceled. 0.80

01:58:12.120 They're homicidal.

01:58:13.560 I don't know.

01:58:16.000 So it's good to see J.D. calling it out and calling them out.

01:58:22.680 Hey, we love unity.

01:58:24.400 It'd be great.

01:58:25.720 But we can't do it with the likes of you.

01:58:30.500 It just can't be done.

01:58:32.660 You refuse to come together and even talk, even speak about our political differences.

01:58:39.140 You look at everybody that thinks differently than you do as a political enemy that needs to be eliminated through whatever means necessary. 0.90

01:58:51.780 Cancellation right up to murder and assassination.

01:58:56.400 That's who we're living with.

01:58:59.100 That's our spouse.

01:59:00.820 That's who we're laying in bed next to every night as America, as our two factions of right

01:59:09.980 and left, liberal and conservative, Democrat, Republican, we're sleeping with the enemy.

01:59:18.760 And they go, oh, come on, can't we just, you know, be chill with each other and be cool? 1.00

01:59:24.560 No, you're a psychopath who's going to boil my rabbit. 0.99

01:59:29.500 You're going to skin my rabbit and boil it in water. 1.00

01:59:33.360 What the hell movie was that? 0.89

01:59:36.120 Fatal Attraction.

01:59:37.780 I think that was it.

01:59:39.740 Oh, my God.

01:59:41.020 You just can't. 0.92

01:59:42.860 They're just, they're incapable of civil discourse. 0.99

01:59:50.820 They're just, I don't know, insane. 0.98

01:59:55.320 That's the word I'm looking for. 1.00

01:59:56.940 They're insane. 1.00

01:59:58.800 Trump laid into Ilhan Omar, which is another good thing. 1.00

02:00:04.100 See, I like this.

02:00:05.860 I like when we see our leaders speaking honestly or posting honestly.

02:00:17.400 Donald Trump wrote this.

02:00:18.820 Ilhan's been on a tear.

02:00:20.940 She's been bad-mouthing Charlie Kirk. 0.94

02:00:24.380 Of course, he was a racist.

02:00:27.140 I've seen so many clips of Charlie Kirk having civil debates with people of every race, creed, color, religion, sexuality. 0.98

02:00:38.980 But, you know, he might have mentioned a few times that there's a crime problem within the black community. 0.98

02:00:46.600 Oh, well, that means you're a horrible racist because you pointed that out and perhaps wanted to talk about it with somebody. 0.99

02:00:56.060 and figure out a way to maybe deal with it. 1.00

02:00:58.820 Oh, well, you're a racist. 1.00

02:01:00.080 Bye-bye. 1.00

02:01:01.900 So Trump wrote,

02:01:03.940 Ilhan Omar's country of Somalia is plagued by a lack of central government control,

02:01:09.300 persistent poverty, hunger, resurgent terrorism, piracy, argh,

02:01:14.220 decades of civil war, corruption, and pervasive violence.

02:01:18.660 70% of the population live in extreme poverty and widespread food insecurity.

02:01:24.560 Somalia is consistently ranked among the world's most corrupt countries,

02:01:28.840 including bribery, embezzlement, and a dysfunctional government.

02:01:32.800 All of this, and Ilhan Omar tells us how to run America.

02:01:38.480 P.S., wasn't she the one that married her brother in order to gain citizenship? 0.99

02:01:46.800 What scum we have in our country telling us what to do and how to do it. 0.99

02:01:51.940 Thank you for your attention to this matter. 0.99

02:01:54.840 Make America great again.

02:01:56.980 Like that, I love that.

02:02:00.860 That is hilarious. 1.00

02:02:03.940 And he's pointing out if someone comes over here, especially from a crap hole like Somalia, 1.00

02:02:09.840 as a refugee, mind you, taking refuge from the awful country that she was in. 0.98

02:02:19.680 Meanwhile, her family was pretty much running the government,

02:02:22.520 the Marxist government over there in Somalia.

02:02:24.880 So she was seeking refuge from her own family. 0.98

02:02:28.420 And then you come here and crap all over the United States of America. 0.99

02:02:35.080 It's horrible. 1.00

02:02:36.880 She should be kissing everyone's feet that allowed her to come here. 0.97

02:02:43.780 And how she got into power, it was all some scam by Clinton and Obama. 1.00

02:02:48.740 Ah, more on this and other things in seconds.

02:02:53.540 Don't go anywhere.

02:02:54.580 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

02:03:00.900 It's the Anthony Cumia Show.

02:03:03.380 Entertaining and informative on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

02:03:09.040 The Anthony Cumia Show.

02:03:12.400 Yes, indeed he do.

02:03:15.000 I missed this earlier when we were talking about Cash Patel.

02:03:18.740 and the Senate hearings and how he just doesn't back down.

02:03:23.480 And Adam Schiff, I mean, this guy, if there was true accountability

02:03:30.360 and true justice for politicians, high end especially,

02:03:38.880 like your Adam Schiffs, if you will, this guy would be, he'd be in prison.

02:03:46.720 He'd have been locked away.

02:03:48.740 This is a guy who consistently lies. 0.82

02:03:54.700 All kinds of skeletons. 0.99

02:03:56.920 Oh, my God.

02:03:57.780 You open up that closet.

02:03:59.660 Bones.

02:04:00.900 You get bones piled up around you.

02:04:04.120 Perjury.

02:04:05.880 This guy testified under oath and said things about Donald Trump that ended up being complete fallacy.

02:04:15.480 the steel dossier oh was he was he attached to that whole thing so um he was questioning cash

02:04:25.520 patel when cash was in front of the committee and uh this is what i love cash does not take

02:04:33.840 anything schiff is is saying he won't just sit back and another thing which isn't as good

02:04:40.280 is that we've gotten to this point that we've reached a point where there is zero civility

02:04:47.680 every so often during these committee hearings or they're they're arguing a bill on the floor

02:04:54.860 of Congress and the Capitol you you would get heated but it is really gotten to the point

02:05:06.440 where it's just, I don't know, backhaul in school,

02:05:12.040 the back of the school bus type language and attitude,

02:05:18.300 no decorum whatsoever from anyone.

02:05:21.680 And I don't even blame Cash Patel that much here

02:05:24.840 because they've just let this happen.

02:05:29.200 Why not get involved and get in there

02:05:33.340 and take your shots while you can?

02:05:36.440 so uh here's uh cash and adam schiff listen to this it's fantastic people to believe that 0.99

02:05:44.920 do you think they're stupid no i think the american people believe the truth that i'm

02:05:50.260 not in the weeds on the everyday movements of inmates what i am doing is protecting this 1.00

02:05:55.240 country providing historic reform and combating the weaponization of intelligence by the likes

02:06:02.080 of you, and we have countlessly 0.99

02:06:04.180 proven you to be a liar 0.92

02:06:06.040 in Russiagate in January 6th. 1.00

02:06:08.860 You are the biggest fraud 0.81

02:06:10.160 to ever sit in the United States Senate. 1.00

02:06:12.680 You are a disgrace to this institution 1.00

02:06:14.420 and an utter coward. 1.00

02:06:16.160 I'm not surprised 1.00

02:06:17.400 that you continue to lie

02:06:20.560 on your perch

02:06:21.960 and put on a show

02:06:23.300 so you can go away with me.

02:06:25.660 You are a political 1.00

02:06:27.860 buffoon at best. 1.00

02:06:29.160 Well, you can take an internet troll. 0.97

02:06:31.840 Take it to the bank that the FBI is protecting this country

02:06:35.060 and the state and citizens of California.

02:06:38.260 We have seen historic reform.

02:06:41.320 Point of order. 1.00

02:06:42.280 But all you care about is a child sex predator 0.79

02:06:45.400 that was prosecuted by a prior administration

02:06:47.800 and the Obama Justice Department

02:06:49.880 and the Biden Justice Department did squat.

02:06:53.040 And what did President Trump do?

02:06:54.760 Bring new charges courageously.

02:06:57.020 And what have we done?

02:06:57.920 You said I'm the most transparent FBI director in history.

02:07:01.440 33,000 pages of information to you.

02:07:04.580 I challenge you to say anything credibly to the truth.

02:07:08.020 Go ahead and run to the cameras where you want to go now.

02:07:13.540 That's great.

02:07:15.580 But, I mean, a complete lack of order and decorum and protocol.

02:07:22.400 Just the gavel.

02:07:23.980 Point of order. 0.99

02:07:24.960 They're calling each other jerks, pretty much. 0.99

02:07:29.500 Point of order. 0.99

02:07:31.680 But I like that.

02:07:33.700 Kash Patel's got some gusto to him.

02:07:38.940 He's not just going to sit there.

02:07:41.100 Because I always hate that.

02:07:42.780 The guys would just sit there, and they're not even being asked questions by the committee.

02:07:48.420 They're just being dressed down.

02:07:51.280 The committee members are just filibustering.

02:07:55.940 They're just blurting out their agenda.

02:07:58.800 And then they'll finish up right at the end with an insult to the person sitting there.

02:08:06.480 And Cash just was not doing it.

02:08:10.300 I'll talk over you. 0.99

02:08:12.200 I'll call you a political buffoon. 0.88

02:08:15.000 ah but it really does um i don't know it's not good it's not a good thing it's entertaining

02:08:25.240 it's funny i like it as a a person and someone who um enjoys comedy but uh truth be told that's

02:08:37.460 not good for our country and it's more proof that we are more divided now than ever

02:08:42.660 what are we where are we going as a country like where to where do we go from today forward

02:08:54.040 does the charlie kirk memorial it's over uh we go through i don't know what a couple of days

02:09:01.420 a morning and then is there extremist violence from one side of the other do we go back to

02:09:08.320 business as usual until something else happens and then everyone calls for unity again and it

02:09:13.120 never ends never ending cycle or or does something actually happen and if something does happen what

02:09:21.320 is that what does that look like people always talk about civil war oh we're headed toward a

02:09:27.320 civil war i don't think so we're way past that we're not past the the limits to which you would

02:09:37.300 get into a civil war uh that doesn't work anymore that type of conflict you know uh painting a line

02:09:47.980 across some states and going this is ours you stay there we'll stay here and then you start

02:09:54.920 shooting at each other and it's this protracted campaign of death and destruction in america

02:10:01.740 we're done with that it doesn't happen just like we'll never be in an actual shooting war with 0.70

02:10:08.880 china years ago that was a prospect we've had proxy wars in korea with china but today

02:10:17.380 we're not going to war with china if something happened where they invaded thailand or something

02:10:24.700 uh taiwan thailand uh to get lady boys uh taiwan we wouldn't really do anything

02:10:34.100 we'd do sanctions we'd probably maybe a blockade i don't know because we're too dependent on each

02:10:44.880 other financially we went and got the whole world involved with each other's checkbooks

02:10:51.960 So we really don't have the convenience of bombing anyone anymore, unless there's some little pissant country in the Middle East or Africa, something inconsequential, more proxy war, more trying to drag the American people into a war by, you know, putting our soldiers somewhere where they could get bombed.

02:11:17.060 And then we go, oh, the outrage. 0.56

02:11:19.700 But look at Russia.

02:11:22.940 Russia invaded Ukraine.

02:11:26.820 And we were dead set against boots on the ground. 0.99

02:11:32.200 Good.

02:11:32.720 I say good.

02:11:34.420 But it wasn't just that, well, the American people wouldn't want American soldiers fighting a Ukraine-Russia war. 0.99

02:11:43.980 Shut up. 0.93

02:11:45.100 has nothing to do with it. 1.00

02:11:47.740 We've sent American men to die forever 0.80

02:11:51.820 since the inception of America. 0.96

02:11:56.020 So what's so different?

02:11:57.140 Well, we do business with some of these people.

02:12:00.860 Russia, Russian allies. 0.94

02:12:04.180 There's a big expense in bombing superpowers 0.91

02:12:09.660 or big, powerful, wealthy nations.

02:12:13.960 It just doesn't happen.

02:12:17.200 And, you know, that's kind of the position we've been put in.

02:12:26.100 So I don't know.

02:12:27.220 Where does it go?

02:12:29.900 Like the Civil War scenario I was just talking about, it's not sound business-wise these days. 0.77

02:12:38.380 It's bad business cutting the country in half and shooting at each other. 0.65

02:12:42.700 so what do we do

02:12:44.520 we don't have a real

02:12:46.120 get out your gun civil war

02:12:48.380 but we despise each other

02:12:51.240 we hate each other

02:12:53.320 half the nation

02:12:55.080 hates the other half

02:12:56.240 and vice versa 0.80

02:12:58.240 so where do we go

02:13:00.120 national divorce 0.99

02:13:02.860 I've heard that one

02:13:03.840 that sounds scary

02:13:05.040 I don't know

02:13:06.820 I had one of those myself

02:13:08.720 back in 2000

02:13:10.960 and uh it wasn't even national it was personal it was just two of us and the carnage involved

02:13:19.320 was insane so i don't know then who takes what state and then you know damn well the the people

02:13:28.620 from the conservative the right whatever our country was whatever part of america was dubbed

02:13:37.420 or deemed our country, they'd be cross on the border 0.99

02:13:42.120 because theirs would suck. 1.00

02:13:45.100 The left, a bunch of nose ring, purple haired imbeciles, 1.00

02:13:51.240 all on disability, no one's working, with Epstein-Barr syndrome. 1.00

02:13:58.360 I'm on disability, yeah, no one's paying it.

02:14:01.220 We have no taxpayers on left America.

02:14:05.840 right america they're wealthy as hell look they're partying champagne they dance every night

02:14:13.120 left america not so much oh we have an illegal alien problem now left americans are trying to

02:14:20.080 get into right america it would always be that way so where do we go what happens

02:14:27.940 i'm a little pessimistic that anything gets solved i think we just continue on this road

02:14:34.140 of hating each other not doing anything about it like a miserable marriage we're staying together

02:14:40.140 for the kids we hate each other we're cheating just stay together for the kids i don't know 0.98

02:14:46.920 oh get out of my sight you disgust me if you slam the door the kids are crying oh wait that

02:14:54.320 was me that was me growing up i don't know something's got to be done but i just can't 0.85

02:15:00.340 it a beat on what what it would be what we could possibly uh do to head back into a a good direction

02:15:10.820 for the for the country matt the bronx what's up matt i'd like to uh expand some of the comments

02:15:20.580 that an early caller made joaquin i believe his name is from pennsylvania uh first of all

02:15:26.860 Well, the topic of immigration I want to discuss, but, you know, as with any problem, in order to understand how to solve the problem, you have to understand how you got into it.

02:15:36.520 Right.

02:15:36.620 And a book that I recommend frequently is The Culture of Critique by Dr. Kevin MacDonald.

02:15:44.340 Yes.

02:15:44.600 It talks about the 1965 Immigration Act, which put a massive third world immigration into place back during the Johnson administration. 0.74

02:15:54.260 Isn't that amazing that the Civil Rights Act and the Immigration Act were the same year? 0.84

02:15:59.660 Oh, yeah.

02:16:00.340 No, actually, the Civil Rights Act was one year before, but immediately after.

02:16:05.380 Yeah, yeah.

02:16:05.980 You have the Immigration Act.

02:16:07.220 Yeah, of course. 1.00

02:16:08.720 All these laws to destroy the country. 1.00

02:16:11.500 So now the illegals, the immigrants, whatever it was back then, coming into the country, 1.00

02:16:18.860 all of a sudden had these civil rights that they wouldn't have had prior to the Civil Rights Act. 0.99

02:16:25.300 So now no one can tell them to go F off, not give them jobs, whatever it was.

02:16:33.680 Americans were legally bound to treat these people as Americans.

02:16:41.220 Right. And the thing is, the insidious thing about the Immigration Act of 1965,

02:16:46.080 Even back then, immigration law and immigration reform was aimed at the white population of the United States.

02:16:55.780 They wanted to reduce the traditional population of the United States because under the Immigration Act, only 15% of immigrants came from Europe.

02:17:07.780 The other 85% came from the Third World.

02:17:10.560 Now, when they signed the bill into law, it wasn't pushed as a bill that would transform America's population. 0.99

02:17:22.040 But that's exactly what it's done over the last 60 years.

02:17:25.900 And that was the intention all along.

02:17:28.400 It's a war against the traditional population of the United States, the type of population that Charlie Kirk represented.

02:17:35.200 Now, Matt, in 1965, what was the end game then?

02:17:43.300 And what was this animosity to white America? 0.52

02:17:47.460 Everything seemed post-war America was the number one superpower on earth.

02:17:54.840 So why would you want to screw that up if you're LBJ or any politician in 1965 passing these bills?

02:18:04.800 knowing that it's going to destroy um america at that point well the answer is power the answer

02:18:13.180 is power divide and conquer they don't want a homogenous country they don't want a cohesive

02:18:18.640 country why it was running pretty well why would you not want uh that country as a politician as

02:18:25.360 a president or senator you still have a certain amount of power over the people uh why would you 0.83

02:18:32.640 want to change it so drastically that the country turns into a third world crap hole well that's

02:18:40.040 just it you know their vision of america it's it's irreconcilable with a functioning american 0.85

02:18:46.340 republic they they don't want their their high old ideology the marxist ideology coming out of

02:18:54.220 the mass media coming out of the universities it's a totally antithetical ideology to what

02:19:00.240 the country was founded on. And again, you know, they don't see the end game. They don't see what

02:19:05.900 the consequences are going to be. The consequences is that the demographic changes that they

02:19:10.700 instituted back then and continue to pursue now are going to lead this country to a violent

02:19:15.920 conflagration. We're going to have a balkanized, violent civil war in this country that's going to 0.66

02:19:22.360 divide the country permanently. And again, it's a country that, you know, would, as you said, 0.67

02:19:28.740 You know, the country was functioning when it was homogenous, when 90 percent of the population was white. 0.99

02:19:34.280 Did we have problems? Of course we did. But again, they're nothing like the ones that we're headed to now. 1.00

02:19:39.020 Now, now, now, now we're headed to a violent crack up thanks to these left wing policies.

02:19:45.040 Chief among them, massive open borders immigration. It's an economic drain on the country.

02:19:50.660 It's a drain on a criminal justice system.

02:19:53.380 And most of all, it's it's on on moored the country from the cohesion that it once enjoyed.

02:20:00.620 Yeah.

02:20:00.920 Yeah.

02:20:01.100 We don't feel much as country.

02:20:03.000 We don't feel unified as Americans anymore.

02:20:06.600 And yeah, there's no optimism.

02:20:10.760 There was back back in the day, years and years ago, there was always this general optimism in America.

02:20:19.780 You felt that being American and being in this country and all it had to offer, that regardless of what was going on, there was always optimism.

02:20:31.380 There is zero optimism these days in this country.

02:20:36.020 Everyone just has this horrifically pessimistic outlook on what our future looks like.

02:20:41.800 like you just said visions of civil war poverty uh islamic uh takeover uh it just there's not 0.97

02:20:51.920 we don't look around and go no i i think the country's headed in in the right direction and

02:20:57.020 it's not just the president or trump or this one or that one it's just how the entire country is

02:21:03.860 moving through history not moving through a presidency there's no optimism here um that's

02:21:11.320 why when these presidents uh or or politicians biden did this all the time we're america we could

02:21:16.940 put our mind to it we'd do anything and it's like no not this america joe not this america it's pure

02:21:24.280 pessimism matt thank you my friend i appreciate your calls and um we'll take a quick break and

02:21:30.760 finish up with the anthony cumia show after these words it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple

02:21:37.940 podcast network it's the anthony cumia show entertaining and informative on the red apple

02:21:46.500 podcast network yes the anthony cumia show and um i was looking a little uh little local uh

02:21:57.600 politics for New York City with the Mamdani, Cuomo, Sliwa, Adams, I don't even know what

02:22:09.700 you call it, debacle, if Mamdani gets elected, New York, you break my heart, Fredo, you 0.91

02:22:19.480 will have done it again and elected someone to office that there's no way they're going

02:22:27.100 to make things better and it's an absolute fact that things will get a lot worse and uh governor

02:22:35.060 hochel threw her endorsement at zoran mandani that's right old zoran zorhan uh so governor

02:22:49.820 Hochul has backed a communist, Muslim, Islam, as mayor of New York City.

02:23:01.480 And this shows who she is. 0.96

02:23:06.380 This is, he's got the heat behind him.

02:23:11.320 He's got the TikTok videos.

02:23:13.560 You know, she could have gone for her former boss, Cuomo.

02:23:22.760 She could have gone for Adams.

02:23:25.220 Adams was the Democrat before he had to go independent because New York wanted a communist.

02:23:31.680 But no, she wants some of the publicity that she knows from Danny will give her.

02:23:37.180 And maybe they can work out a little quid pro quo if he gets elected.

02:23:47.060 But I hear he's not endorsed her yet.

02:23:50.900 Is that supposed to be a thing politicians do?

02:23:54.380 They're supposed to endorse each other?

02:23:56.700 You're supposed to maybe talk about that beforehand?

02:23:58.640 but uh every one of these policies and and i've noticed they're trying to squelch

02:24:07.500 some of the policies that mamdani has uh spoken about in the past some of these things that

02:24:15.660 people go what in new york city are you insane that will never work and uh they're trying to

02:24:22.580 play those down but don't think for a second this guy uh the second he's he's uh sworn in

02:24:31.800 isn't going to do everything a communist would do in a city like new york this is going to be the

02:24:40.780 freebie uh unbelievable crime no no judicial system it'll just be a frenzy

02:24:50.720 and law enforcement, the NYPD is a joke as it is right now.

02:24:56.540 And I apologize to any of the real cops that are on the NYPD right now.

02:25:05.540 You're probably, you've probably been there for a while.

02:25:09.420 You're just, just waiting for retirement, waiting for that pension move to somewhere,

02:25:16.840 a much better state lower taxes get that boat do some fishing i know a lot of mypd guys and

02:25:27.260 that's exactly what they did and anyone worth their while is is probably waiting just waiting

02:25:36.640 out their pension hoping they don't get jammed up because they did their job

02:25:41.660 and it was considered racist or sexist or homophobic or whatever.

02:25:48.240 So that's what's going on with the NYPD.

02:25:51.500 Now, that's bad enough that that's what's happening now.

02:25:55.040 Imagine under Mayor Memdani.

02:26:00.280 They're putting people on this police force

02:26:04.740 that are completely incapable of doing the job of a small-town cop,

02:26:12.400 never mind the biggest city in the country as far as the police force goes.

02:26:18.500 NYPD is an army compared to any other city's police department,

02:26:23.160 and they are filling the ranks with unqualified, overweight DEI hires 1.00

02:26:33.520 the amount of videos i see on a daily basis of these little squat troll looking latina women 1.00

02:26:45.360 cops running around trying to apprehend a hundred pound crackhead and they can't even do that 1.00

02:26:55.300 they're incapable of running once they catch the person they can't do anything they can't 1.00

02:27:02.600 cuff them and and with with half an effort the perp gets away and runs and these chubby women 0.90

02:27:12.420 with gear flapping all over them they they can't do the job and i've said this before the the one 1.00

02:27:21.440 of the worst things about an incompetent cop someone that can't do the job that can't physically

02:27:29.780 do the job they put everyone in danger because they have to resort to deadly physical force

02:27:36.860 before a competent able physically able cop you get a couple of cops they're both guys

02:27:45.700 they both are about the same size and weight both about the same fighting prowess

02:27:53.880 and the bad guy squares off to the cop,

02:27:58.220 yeah, you might mace him or use the taser or the baton,

02:28:01.420 but if push comes to shove and they have to go at it with hands on, fists,

02:28:07.240 they're equally matched.

02:28:09.360 If something happens where the cop starts losing

02:28:12.220 and thinks that his gun might be compromised or something,

02:28:18.400 he might have to resort to deadly physical force, maybe.

02:28:20.860 But I've seen plenty of videos where they control the guy.

02:28:24.540 You get another male cop in there and they stop the guy and control him. 1.00

02:28:29.920 These women, if a guy comes at them with his fists and wants to punch them in the face and take their weapons, that's what's going to happen. 1.00

02:28:41.360 A female cop has to resort to deadly physical force way earlier than a capable male cop has to. 1.00

02:28:49.460 And that alone should eliminate women from street duty as a cop. 1.00

02:28:59.360 That right there. 0.98

02:29:01.240 Everyone is in danger at that point.

02:29:04.980 All right, kids.
