00:00:00.000 On the complete opposite side, there's this guy named Gavin Newsom
00:00:03.540 who's trying to sell you cheap diapers, but try to find it in a way,
00:00:07.900 allegedly, try to do it in a way that it benefits his wife.
00:00:11.880 And he's kind of like, you know, kind of this little quagmire.
00:00:16.060 I don't know what's the proper word to use here that he's.
00:00:19.360 Quagmire?
00:00:19.820 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:00:21.060 He's kind of, you know, and so he's trying to kind of maneuver.
00:00:23.660 He's trying to, what's the word?
00:00:25.740 You know.
00:00:26.720 Dance?
00:00:27.480 I don't know if it's.
00:00:28.460 Spin tall?
00:00:29.300 He can do his dance.
00:00:30.260 Turn himself into a pretzel.
00:00:31.600 He's trying to basically figure this thing out.
00:00:32.920 Rob, do you have a clip on this, on these diapers?
00:00:34.800 Ricky Bobby, shake and bake?
00:00:36.180 Yeah, shake and bake.
00:00:36.820 That's the better one.
00:00:37.680 I like that.
00:00:38.240 Shake and bake.
00:00:38.800 So here's the shake and bake master from California who is the current governor.
00:00:45.480 He's hoping to become the president, your president.
00:00:47.180 He's hoping to become your president here very soon.
00:00:49.680 Rob, go ahead and play this clip.
00:00:50.740 I was so inspired when I was reading about these two remarkable people you see behind me.
00:00:56.540 Right, tell me he gets right into it, because it's two minutes and 48 seconds.
00:01:00.600 By the way, he said he was reading.
00:01:02.440 I thought he was dyslexic. 0.71
00:01:04.120 That's a good point, Tommy.
00:01:05.180 Very good point, Tommy.
00:01:06.520 Do you want to play this one?
00:01:07.840 Why don't you play the Steve Hilton clip first?
00:01:09.700 Cool.
00:01:10.000 Go for it.
00:01:10.420 All right, so Gavin Newsom is taking $20 billion of your money to send 100,000 babies, 400 diapers.
00:01:16.180 That works out at $0.50 per diaper.
00:01:18.100 We just came into Target to check out what you could buy it for in the store.
00:01:21.320 Here you go.
00:01:21.700 Just check this one out here.
00:01:23.340 $162.26.
00:01:24.620 dollars that works out at 16 cents per diaper gavin newsom's diapers are three times more
00:01:29.300 expensive why is that steve hilton three times more expensive to send diapers to 100 000 babies
00:01:35.160 lincoln just leaving the money in the bank accounts of the parents in the first place because 0.95
00:01:38.920 we want to know to some total bullshit non-profit which the cronies of his are going to make money 0.98
00:01:43.540 and that is what is wrong with california instead of just cutting taxes so you can afford diapers 0.98
00:01:48.860 and sending it out in this ridiculous bureaucratic scheme vinnie what else do we know about these
00:01:53.940 diapers who's benefiting from this well uh thank you for asking pat so like he said 100 000 babies
00:01:59.080 400 diapers how about this just cut the taxes send people the money directly like don't play 0.98
00:02:04.740 this nonsense irs filing show jennifer siebel newsom paid herself and oh no the first lady 1.00
00:02:12.240 oh yeah yeah that's her tom the pro-abortion cutting people loving to kill babies she paid 0.99
00:02:17.980 herself and her company $3.9 million from her so-called gender justice charity. About $1.8 0.99
00:02:25.100 million went to her salary and another $2.1 million went to her profit film company making
00:02:30.640 documentaries pushing into California public schools. And by the way, honestly, Tom, is anyone
00:02:36.900 surprised? Are any of you at home listening to this surprised? It's Gavin Newsom. It's like being
00:02:43.420 shocked that a raccoon stole your garbage that's what he's supposed to do that's what they're
00:02:47.780 supposed to do all right and everybody it's just pat he just exudes this fake identity okay and
00:02:53.740 it's just driving me crazy because that's the model everything is optics everything is branding
00:02:58.840 everything sounds compassionate until you follow the money and when you follow the money and they
00:03:04.320 act like they care it's cheaper at costco they're bsing you and it always comes out it's always
00:03:09.260 angry and it's always trump and it's always trump no wonder why california is failing no wonder why
00:03:14.320 and by the way the guy that runs that is also a donor so the money goes to him and then we look
00:03:19.420 at his federal fec filings federal election committee and to see where he filed he was
00:03:23.920 actually donating to the newsom campaign donating lots of money to dems and it's like what so this
00:03:29.720 is the circle of life this is the same thing we've been hearing about and diapers i love the
00:03:33.940 steve hilton walked into a regular target to just point out here's the price right here because
00:03:39.120 Words talk, numbers scream, and I love that they put that number in front of them.
00:03:42.680 You know, it's interesting.
00:03:43.900 I was a dad, a brand-new dad once, and buying diapers was difficult.
00:03:47.980 I walked down the aisle in there.
00:03:49.300 This one diaper pack said up to 12 pounds.
00:03:51.820 I got home, and then Kim said, no, no, no, that's the weight of the child.
00:03:54.880 I'm like, gosh, you only need a couple of those.
00:03:57.540 You got all summer covered.
00:04:00.060 Adam, look, we can go on and on with what's going on in New York City.
00:04:04.540 We can go on and on with what's going on in California.
00:04:06.300 Right now, it's working to an extent.
00:04:09.780 Why?
00:04:10.080 Because they have the greatest distraction that any super liberal person could possibly ask for or super liberal government could ask for.
00:04:17.800 And what's that distraction?
00:04:19.320 It's Trump. 1.00
00:04:20.220 While Trump is there, they always can double down on, but Trump, he's a fascist. 1.00
00:04:26.880 He's a king. 1.00
00:04:27.980 He's this.
00:04:28.640 They're always going to have that excuse.
00:04:30.000 My question is, what's going to happen to these states when they no longer have the Trump scapegoat?
00:04:36.900 When Trump is no longer here, and we all, I think, agree for the most part,
00:04:40.360 Trump is doing a great job in his second term, certainly better than his first.
00:04:44.200 What's going to happen to these big blue liberal cities when they no longer have Trump to blame?
00:04:50.320 So it kind of, in a weird way, not to go off topic,
00:04:53.940 reminds me of what a lot of the Middle Eastern autocrats and dictators in Iran do regarding Israel. 0.66
00:05:01.140 Don't worry about what we're doing to our own people. Don't worry about our terrorism. Don't
00:05:05.160 worry about everything that we're doing wrong, subjugating our own people, but Israel. It's a 1.00
00:05:09.880 great excuse. Unfortunately, it's kind of like with the Abraham Accords, it's sort of being subdued a 0.87
00:05:15.140 little bit in the Middle East. Now you have a lot of people basically being like, well, it's kind of
00:05:18.540 really Iran that's the problem. At the end of the day, when Trump leaves office, these big blue cities
00:05:23.020 are gonna have to take a long hard look in the mirror especially their people and be like
00:05:26.420 it's not even Trump anymore it's our leadership and the question is are they going to hold him
00:05:32.060 accountable and vote in people who are going to go against the grain that's why everybody's
00:05:36.480 rooting for people like Steve Hilton for people like Spencer Pratt because they're not the typical
00:05:42.420 leftist stooges that are just going to go along with what they've always done but but think about
00:05:46.780 it if they win they're good but whoever wins on the Republican side they're going to tie them to
00:05:51.180 Trump. If it's Rubio or Vance or one
00:05:53.140 of the top, you know what they're going to say? Oh, he's such
00:05:55.220 a Trump. By the way, that'll work
00:05:57.280 to a certain extent. Now, watch this. When he's
00:05:59.180 asked about the leading candidate for
00:06:01.160 governor in California,
00:06:03.580 this is his reaction,
00:06:05.520 Rob. Can you play this? Go for it.
00:06:10.460 Oh, boy.
00:06:11.300 That's what... See, Daniel left right
00:06:13.220 at the right time.
00:06:15.320 Unbelievable. That's good. I used to do that, too,
00:06:17.240 as mayor.
00:06:17.560 that's so
00:06:21.020 I really have
00:06:22.600 I mean cannot tell you how
00:06:24.540 I just haven't focused on that
00:06:26.780 I think I'm going to see Speaker Pelosi
00:06:28.780 though shortly maybe she'll
00:06:30.080 fill me in on an update
00:06:33.000 on the race
00:06:33.500 it's kind of weird
00:06:36.420 it's like he's mumbling at a cocktail
00:06:39.260 it's kind of weird
00:06:40.580 it's a basic question do you endorse the guy
00:06:42.260 so maybe they're holding it off to do that at a big event
00:06:44.300 and all this other stuff to have a spectacle
00:06:46.320 and different kind of a showing.
00:06:47.420 If you're somebody that wants to see the survey,
00:06:49.600 almost 16,000 of you ended up doing the survey.
00:06:52.160 We're thankful for all of you.

00:07:00.680 And guess what?
00:07:01.180 We gave it.
00:07:01.700 We have no problem with that.

00:07:14.980 Rob, can you show a clip?
00:07:16.680 Can you just go to the survey and show what it looks like?
00:07:18.700 Go a little bit lower.
