00:00:00.000 I think the first thing I want to start off with, and Michael, I'm going to come to you, is California.
00:00:05.400 Rob, we have a lot of clips, okay?
00:00:07.920 We have a lot of clips of what's going on in California.
00:00:11.800 It isn't slowing down. The game's not slowing down.
00:00:15.040 Newsom did eventually come out and apologize.
00:00:17.160 If you want to go on Twitter, Rob, and just go to the apology video that he came out eventually.
00:00:22.240 This is, I think, four, five days later.
00:00:24.800 On day one, I asked him, I said, are you going to come out and do this?
00:00:27.460 This is, I think, yesterday that he came out and said this.
00:00:31.540 Now, watch this. We don't have to play the whole thing.
00:00:33.300 Just the first 30 seconds.
00:00:35.140 Watch how he's finally, finally wanting to have his people be responsible.
00:00:40.520 Go ahead, Rob.
00:00:41.400 If you incite violence, I want to be clear about this.
00:00:44.220 If you incite violence or destroy our communities, you're going to be held to account.
00:00:48.720 That kind of criminal behavior will not be tolerated.
00:00:51.100 Full stop. Already more than 220 people have been arrested.
00:00:55.660 And we're reviewing tapes to build additional cases.
00:00:58.640 And people will be prosecuted to the fullest extent.
00:01:01.780 You can pause it right there.
00:01:02.940 Is he reading a script?
00:01:03.960 Of course he is.
00:01:04.860 You can pause it right there.
00:01:05.660 Go back a little bit, Rob.
00:01:06.720 Go back a little bit more.
00:01:08.120 You know, I'm saying it's four days too late.
00:01:09.620 This shows you haven't moved to the center.
00:01:12.440 You want this chaos.
00:01:13.500 You need your next George Floyd.
00:01:14.860 And continue to deflect, spin, and blame.
00:01:17.240 Michael, before we go into all these other clips, there's so many of them.
00:01:19.640 There's a guy that's tatted up and, you know, looks like a tough guy, explaining.
00:01:25.380 I don't know if you saw this clip or not.
00:01:26.520 This guy's great.
00:01:27.140 That Worldstar posted.
00:01:27.960 It's phenomenal.
00:01:28.920 What's amazing about this clip, when you post it, there's a sound that happens the first
00:01:32.740 three seconds that I'm wondering what he was doing before he played this clip.
00:01:36.360 Go ahead and play this clip, Rob.
00:01:37.240 I don't know if you guys caught the sound.
00:01:38.280 Go ahead.
00:01:38.840 Put that straight.
00:01:42.220 What was that?
00:01:44.020 Go back again, Rob.
00:01:45.580 Double respect.
00:01:46.540 Let me hear.
00:01:46.920 Listen.
00:01:47.240 Double respect.
00:01:47.920 Listen.
00:01:48.340 Listen to this.
00:01:51.480 Let me get this straight.
00:01:55.500 Honey, squats.
00:01:56.220 By the way, no, no.
00:01:56.820 Pause it before, guys.
00:01:57.840 I have more important things to do.
00:01:58.560 Sorry.
00:01:59.360 Squats.
00:01:59.880 Go back, Rob.
00:02:00.640 You know what it's like.
00:02:01.840 It's like, but you have to, can you imagine, right after he's done with his girl, the only
00:02:06.440 thing he was thinking about is the riots.
00:02:08.720 Imagine how focused he is.
00:02:09.900 It's that meme.
00:02:10.160 You know the meme of like, I hope he's not dreaming about cheating on me.
00:02:13.560 And the guy's just like, why is Gavin Newsom letting his terrorist run?
00:02:16.640 I don't even think he was done with his lady friend.
00:02:18.940 Do it one more time here.
00:02:19.940 Do it one more time here.
00:02:21.320 Go for it, Rob.
00:02:22.280 Get this straight.
00:02:24.080 Just so I could clarify.
00:02:25.420 Let me just, okay.
00:02:26.480 You don't want to go back to Mexico.
00:02:28.980 You're protesting to stay away from Mexico, but you're waving the Mexican flag and you're 0.93
00:02:35.900 waving it with pride.
00:02:37.540 You're waving it in the United States, the country you're trying to stay in, the country
00:02:43.780 you don't want to leave.
00:02:44.700 But yet you're waving the Mexican flag with pride.
00:02:51.060 Okay.
00:02:52.940 That seems normal to you.
00:02:54.700 That seems logical.
00:02:56.140 That's not stupid at all.
00:02:59.420 None of that's stupid.
00:03:02.080 All right.
00:03:03.000 You guys, you guys are embarrassment to the Mexican culture and to the United States culture. 1.00
00:03:07.680 You guys are embarrassment to everybody around you and you should be ashamed of yourself.
00:03:14.540 Do better.
00:03:15.600 All right.
00:03:16.260 Mike, your thoughts on everything that's going on in California.
00:03:18.700 Beautiful.
00:03:19.400 I think it's on a lot of people's minds.
00:03:21.040 Obviously, 200,000 likes for that.
00:03:22.900 And Newsom doesn't know which way to flop because he comes out and he says, Trump bringing in
00:03:28.260 the National Guard is a threat to democracy.
00:03:30.380 And this is the authoritarian taker.
00:03:31.540 So he, Newsom puts himself firmly on the side of the Mexican flags and the Kefias and the
00:03:38.040 ACAB and all the rest of it.
00:03:39.900 Then he realized that's not playing very well.
00:03:42.020 And so he's got to flip and say, no, no, we're arresting all of these people.
00:03:44.320 Oh, these are people you were just standing with.
00:03:45.960 This is after the Democrats.
00:03:47.540 I don't know if you saw Brian Stelter's tweet.
00:03:49.180 He said that the riots and the arson and the Molotov cocktails were a cry of hope.
00:03:54.120 That's the new fiery but mostly peaceful protest.
00:03:56.480 It's a cry of hope, a song of joy to burn a city down.
00:04:00.080 And so there's actually a reason that Newsom has done this.
00:04:05.120 You know, it's easy to say, oh, what a dummy.
00:04:06.600 He doesn't know what he's doing.
00:04:07.360 That's not fair.
00:04:09.140 Newsom had a strategy.
00:04:11.040 Newsom was a huge lib and he let his state, at least one of his cities, burn down before
00:04:15.860 all the riots broke out.
00:04:17.020 And he realized, OK, this is bad.
00:04:18.420 I want to be president in 2028.
00:04:19.760 So I'm going to moderate.
00:04:20.780 Trump won the popular vote.
00:04:21.820 So what am I going to do?
00:04:22.560 The best way that I can position myself to win over all those disaffected Dems who went
00:04:26.400 Republican for Trump, who maybe they can come back.
00:04:28.320 I'm going to pretend to be friends with Charlie Kerr.
00:04:30.160 And Steve Bannon.
00:04:31.140 And I'm going to start a podcast and look like Mr. Moderate.
00:04:33.160 OK, so he starts to do that.
00:04:35.280 And then the riots force his hand because when push comes to shove, he can either side with
00:04:41.340 Trump and the Marines and the National Guard and normal people and that Mexican guy without 1.00
00:04:45.220 a shirt on, all of whom understand that the rioters are bad, or he can stand with his
00:04:50.480 base.
00:04:51.240 And so he has to stand with his base.
00:04:52.780 So great.
00:04:53.200 Now he's getting all the play over Kamala and Buttigieg and Whitmer and all these other
00:04:56.680 people.
00:04:56.960 That's fine.
00:04:57.600 But he's completely unelectable because what the deportation protest comes down to
00:05:02.560 is mass deportations are a mainstream majority political issue now.
00:05:08.420 Not just the bad guys with the MS-13 tattoos, mass deportations for many of the 11 to 16 million
00:05:15.240 illegal aliens.
00:05:15.900 So then the last thing the Democrats could do to try to salvage a political win here is
00:05:21.220 they could send their protesters out to wave the American flag and not the Mexican flag.
00:05:24.940 And they can't even do that.
00:05:26.320 And they can't do that not just because they're dummies or something.
00:05:29.060 They can't do that because it is part of their ideology and part of their base that they
00:05:33.520 hate America, that America is evil.
00:05:35.540 We need to abolish the colonial, white, imperial, original sin, blah, blah, blah, whatever. 1.00
00:05:40.500 So they can't do it.
00:05:42.000 They can wave the rainbow flag.
00:05:43.460 They can wave the terrorist rainbow flag, the one with the triangle and the brown and 0.98
00:05:46.780 the black and whatever.
00:05:47.660 They can wave the Mexican flag, but they can't wave the American flag. 0.53
00:05:50.640 And so you look at a guy like Newsom, who is a talented politician, and you realize the
00:05:54.680 guy can't move.
00:05:56.800 Any way he moves, he loses.
00:05:59.220 But here's a question, though.
00:06:00.360 So to me, what is kind of weird on the playbook, the page is taken out of the playbook, is
00:06:06.640 his current play is the play to state governor of California.
00:06:11.680 It's not the play to become the president.
00:06:14.320 Who is he winning over?
00:06:15.360 The moderate play or the radical play?
00:06:18.040 It's a radical play.
00:06:19.180 Yeah, right.
00:06:19.580 They're kind of getting mixed up.
00:06:20.480 But to get the moderate play, the moderate plays for being a president, the radical plays
00:06:26.200 to state governor of California.
00:06:27.820 It doesn't make any sense.
00:06:28.660 But how do you win the primary?
00:06:30.360 How does he win the primary?
00:06:33.260 So if you saw the numbers that came up, I don't know if you saw the surgeons or what
00:06:38.240 happened.
00:06:38.560 He officially, in the last four days, believe it or not, in the craziest way, went from
00:06:42.260 number five or four on the list to the number one candidate for 2020.
00:06:45.820 Did you see the surgeons?
00:06:47.060 It went like, boom, like this.
00:06:48.940 Did you see this?
00:06:49.600 I didn't.
00:06:49.940 Numbers went like this.
00:06:51.160 Newsom went to number one spot because Democrats like the fact that he's fighting and standing
00:06:55.560 up to Trump.
00:06:56.280 So on the Democratic side, they're like, look at this guy.
00:06:59.000 He's not afraid of Trump.
00:07:00.580 He's not afraid of the bully.
00:07:01.540 He's standing up.
00:07:02.200 So Democrats, believe it or not, like it.
00:07:04.780 Does that mean he can win?
00:07:06.020 Here's CNN.
00:07:06.640 I want to show this clip here, Rob, if you can, from CNN on what happened with trust on
00:07:10.660 immigration.
00:07:11.760 He looks like he needs to go to the bathroom.
00:07:12.800 He doesn't go to the bathroom.
00:07:13.740 He can't take this crap.
00:07:14.240 Rob, go ahead and play this clip.
00:07:15.160 So 2020, 2020 to 2025, trust more on immigration, the left or right.
00:07:23.960 Go for it.
00:07:24.380 Start off on the fact that immigrant citizens, immigrant voters, foreign-born voters have
00:07:29.460 gone tremendously to the right on this issue in 2024 and 2025 versus where they were in
00:07:35.100 2020.
00:07:35.800 Closest to her trust more on immigration.
00:07:37.360 You go back to 2020.
00:07:38.540 Democrats, get this, held a 32-point lead on this issue.
00:07:42.480 Immigrant voters were in the Democratic camp.
00:07:44.780 Jump forward to 2024, 2025.
00:07:46.420 Look at that shift, a 40-point shift to the right among immigrant voters.
00:07:52.840 Republicans now lead on this issue by eight points over Democrats.
00:07:57.200 Only in four or five years.
00:07:58.140 More so than any other group that I could find.
00:08:00.560 The group of voters who became more hawkish on immigration were, in fact, immigrants themselves,
00:08:05.720 immigrants who are registered to vote in this country.
00:08:09.220 That is wild.
00:08:10.180 How about how they feel about, kind of traditionally, historically, about Donald Trump?
00:08:14.560 Yeah.
00:08:14.940 So, you know, you see this shift and you go, what is going on underneath the hood?
00:08:18.780 Well, take a look, Donald Trump.
00:08:19.840 You remember when he first ran back in 2016.
00:08:22.460 Immigrant voters are one of his weakest box. 1.00
00:08:24.220 But look at this.
00:08:24.840 Trump's vote share in presidential elections among, again, immigrant citizens, those who
00:08:28.300 are registered to vote.
00:08:28.920 Look at this.
00:08:29.560 2016, he got 36% of the vote.
00:08:31.320 You go to 2020, 39% of the vote.
00:08:33.660 Look at this.
00:08:34.420 In 2024, all the way up to 47% of the vote.
00:08:38.400 Some polls I looked at had him barely losing that vote.
00:08:41.140 Some polls I looked at had him barely winning that vote.
00:08:43.320 Again, there is no block of voters that shifted more to the right from 2020 to 2024 than immigrant
00:08:51.260 voters.
00:08:51.900 And Donald Trump, at least in some surveys, actually won that vote.
00:08:55.240 On average, it's about equal.
00:08:57.420 So there may be all this stuff right about him.
00:08:59.360 Tom, why do you think that is?
00:09:00.100 Why do you think, you know, Newsom is doing what he's doing?
00:09:03.660 He's taking a position of staying as a governor.
00:09:05.560 But the Democrats are excited about him fighting against Trump.
00:09:10.060 Yet at the same time, immigrants are siding with Trump on what he's doing on immigration.
00:09:14.400 The Democratic side is not looking good.
00:09:16.760 The votes are going more on the Republican side on how they trust who to handle this.
00:09:20.280 Why do you think this is taking place?
00:09:21.500 I have three quick thoughts on this.
00:09:23.240 And number one, I got two more Menecs just last night from people that said, thank you
00:09:28.300 for speaking up for the Latino community.
00:09:31.180 I am in Ventura, California, and the illegal aliens come into our communities because that's 1.00
00:09:37.560 the place where they try to find housing and to hide.
00:09:39.700 They're not going to hide Newport Beach.
00:09:42.340 You see?
00:09:42.840 So they're coming into our communities. 0.54
00:09:44.580 We don't want the criminal element.
00:09:46.180 We don't want the ones that are bad.
00:09:47.600 We are sympathetic for the people that are trying to flee the cartels.
00:09:51.160 But now it creates the same thing here.
00:09:52.620 So number one, the immigrants that are here are assimilating and they are appreciating the
00:09:57.260 American opportunity.
00:09:58.420 That's a fact.
00:09:59.480 And that's what's showing up in the polls.
00:10:01.480 The second point says they don't want the violence either, and they don't want it to
00:10:05.600 reflect on themselves.
00:10:06.860 So they're as concerned as a regular citizen is, and they're polling like regular citizens
00:10:12.100 on the issue of immigration.
00:10:14.200 And lastly, there's one more thing I'd ask what Michael said, and I think he's absolutely
00:10:18.020 correct.
00:10:18.780 Remember, the DNC, inside the DNC, they eat their young.
00:10:22.360 You remember what they did in South Carolina to Bernie going back elections ago?
00:10:27.820 J.B. Pritzker is their guy.
00:10:30.080 J.B. Pritzker is being kept insulated right now.
00:10:33.660 And guess what?
00:10:35.180 I believe that Gavin Newsom doesn't know that the DNC is using him as a veritable suicide
00:10:41.060 bomber in this.
00:10:42.660 He thinks he's out there because he has no space on the chessboard to move except to the
00:10:48.120 base.
00:10:48.480 I agree with you 100%.
00:10:49.800 He was trying to be Mr. Moderate.
00:10:51.720 He was being chill.
00:10:52.680 He was wearing different clothing.
00:10:54.000 All this thing's going on.
00:10:55.180 But all of a sudden, he's like, oh, crap.
00:10:57.120 I can't stay on that square.
00:10:59.080 Otherwise, I'll get killed over here.
00:11:00.440 So he has to go back to the base.
00:11:01.980 He doesn't want to be here.
00:11:02.840 And then he and Karen Bass, within 36 hours, suddenly gave Republican stump speeches on
00:11:08.940 violence in the streets.
00:11:10.260 And it's like, wait, what just happened?
00:11:12.220 They even had to run away from their base because they saw the polls coming out exactly what
00:11:17.180 Harry Anton was talking about.
00:11:18.660 Those are my thoughts.
00:11:19.420 This weekend is Flag Day, okay?
00:11:24.160 And we're celebrating a lot of different things.
00:11:26.340 And in the whole respect of Flag Day, we have some new merch.
00:11:31.680 An item that I don't know what happened.
00:11:33.740 We launch it at midnight.
00:11:34.840 And we send an email to the people that are insiders that buy merch.
00:11:38.520 And it's gone already.
00:11:39.980 But we have some of it still that's left, the numbered stuff that we have.
00:11:43.140 Here's a clip about what's about to come out.
00:11:44.960 And the new hat that's out.
00:11:46.100 I have a feeling some of you guys are going to lose your mind and you're going to want
00:11:49.340 it ASAP.
00:11:49.900 So go ahead and play this clip, Rob.
00:11:51.120 Show me the hat.
00:12:14.940 Damn.
00:12:16.580 Oh, wow.
00:12:17.200 So now it's that.
00:12:19.360 Limited edition numbered hat.
00:12:22.540 And these are the ones that comes in this box.
00:12:24.400 It's numbered at a 250.
00:12:26.660 And when you get it, there's a card inside with the hat here.
