El Salvador. Rob, if you can pull up the clip of El Salvador's Bukele visiting the White House
00:00:06.520
and saying he will not return a man, the U.S. mistakenly deported.
00:00:13.320
Can President Bukele weigh in on this? Do you plan to return him?
00:00:18.960
Well, I'm supposed to have suggested that I smuggle terrorists in the United States, right?
00:00:24.220
How can I smuggle him? How can I return him to the United States?
00:00:28.140
It's like if I smuggle him into the United States or whether I do it, of course, I'm not going to do it.
00:00:32.920
It's like, I mean, the question is preposterous.
00:00:36.340
How can I smuggle a terrorist into the United States?
00:00:39.540
I don't have the power to return him to the United States.
00:00:42.200
But you could release him inside of El Salvador.
00:00:44.000
Yeah, but I'm not releasing, I mean, we're not very fond of releasing terrorists into our country.
00:00:48.080
I mean, we just turned the murder capital of the world into the safest country in the Western Hemisphere
00:00:51.600
and you want us to go back into the releasing criminals so we can go back to being the murder capital of the world.
00:00:59.160
Well, they'd love to have a criminal, you know, released into our country.
00:01:05.460
Listen, though, they gave the president that stick.
00:01:09.680
You know, that's a stupid gotcha question that the media has got to get out of the habit of asking,
00:01:13.980
which is just trying to expose some kind of conflict.
00:01:18.520
This is a much simpler situation than the one we were just talking about.
00:01:22.020
Now, I don't know why he calls the guy a terrorist.
00:01:28.560
Well, Trump labeled anybody that's from a gang that's coming in here.
00:01:32.180
Well, technically, I mean, if you think about it, Chris, technically they are.
00:01:37.740
They freaking kill women, children, everything.
00:01:45.340
What I'm saying is, technically, that's not what a terrorist is under our law.
00:01:50.760
They got to be doing what they're doing to advance a political agenda.
00:01:53.360
That's why people always get frustrated when we wait when a Muslim extremist does something violent here.
00:02:04.360
They didn't care about the hearing that he had coming up for his asylum claim.
00:02:09.120
When this guy has his asylum claim, he is not going to get asylum.
00:02:14.780
Well, I'm afraid they're going to kill me there.
00:02:17.320
It has got to be a specific and articulated threat to you.
00:02:23.240
Give him the hearing so you can prove that you respect due process.
00:02:29.900
This is a non, what I call a non-traversy, to go after Trump.
00:02:43.580
But apparently, so this guy that, mind you, CNN, oh, I'm sorry, not CNN, the majority of the mainstream media.
00:02:49.880
So this guy, the government has found out that this guy has not only connections, he's probably in MS-13.
00:02:58.840
A hardworking father departed in the family torn apart.
00:03:04.780
Maryland man, born and raised in El Salvador and a MS-13 gang man.
00:03:14.700
He goes in on Caitlin Collins and CNN, which I normally would be like, you know what, kind of, you know, take it easy.
00:03:24.420
Like, we're talking about, think about this, how many thousands of people have Homeland Security, Tom Holman, Kristi Noem, gotten the hell out of our country.
00:03:32.320
I haven't heard of one illegal raping or murdering an American, okay, since Trump has been in.
00:03:40.160
So there's one guy, one guy that everybody's up in arms with, and they're making him seem just like when Soleimani, when Trump in the first administration killed Soleimani, you know what they called him in the media?
00:03:52.460
It's absolute horseshit, and CNN should be embarrassed.
00:03:56.180
How many more BS stories are we going to have to hear?
00:03:59.680
They're worried about one guy, one freaking guy who was in a gang.
00:04:03.920
And then Miller over here even explains, the guy went to court twice.
00:04:12.680
And it's embarrassing, bro, in front of the freaking president who's saying, you want us to ship back a guy that's probably killed and murdered?
00:04:21.740
So I have two of the clips that Vinny had mentioned where Trump calls out Caitlin Collins, if you'd like that.
00:04:26.340
Then I also have Bukele offers the U.S. help to detain criminals.
00:04:30.400
Another clip of Bukele praising Trump for the border crisis and asks him why the media won't report on it.
00:04:36.080
And then finally Stephen Miller debunking the narrative that the Maryland man should not have been deported to El Salvador.
00:04:43.100
Why don't you start off with the Caitlin Collins?
00:04:57.900
Well, Mr. President, you said that if the Supreme Court said someone needed to be returned, that you would abide by that.
00:05:02.640
You said that on Air Force One just a few days ago.
00:05:07.760
Why don't you just say, isn't it wonderful that we're keeping criminals out of our country?
00:05:13.600
Why do you go over and over and that's why nobody watches you anymore?
00:06:10.320
You are literally in the White House talking about one freaking guy who is an MS-13.
00:06:17.140
How, to get into MS-13, is it just you sign up and you join in?
00:06:21.520
How evil do you have to be to be in this freaking gang?
00:06:26.320
It just boggles my mind that you're in the White House.
00:06:28.760
The guy from El Salvador who had the most dangerous country, now he has the most safest.
00:06:35.880
You are 100% on it, which blows me away that she actually even asked that question, Chris.
00:06:40.520
I mean, CNN management must have been like, what the hell is she?
00:06:44.460
She's a double Asian because they love her in Trump land.
00:06:58.340
CNN got smoked because he points out all the things that CNN's lied about and gave Trump
00:07:05.100
We're deporting people who rape our women, kill our children, or vice versa.
00:07:12.180
That exchange makes Caitlyn Collins more popular with the media because she's the new Jim Acosta.
00:07:19.040
I got to think they're going to say, what the hell did you do that?
00:07:23.300
Not something he's going to absolutely lambast CNN and you.
00:07:26.580
But Jim Acosta, dude, if you think about it, the fake news was birthed by Jim Acosta,
00:07:33.700
Trump first term didn't have the mandate and the swell and the support he has right
00:07:45.940
They called him the, you know, he was delusional.
00:07:51.060
First time, he gave Acosta a platform to raise his Q score, Acosta's Q score.
00:08:01.420
I believe Caitlin Collins is probably on her last leg because of that, the, you know,
00:08:10.620
But certainly, if I'm CNN management, I go, she just walked us into a slam dunk.
00:08:15.900
No, look, you can look at the ratings and you'll make your decision.
00:08:20.940
But I'm telling you, within the media culture, going at Trump gets you dap and it's going
00:08:28.460
That was, that was, that was, they alley-ooped.
00:08:32.940
I'll give you the, I'll give you the other side of it.
00:08:42.780
You got to bring the guy back and have that, uh, that hearing.
00:08:52.420
You got to bring them back and give them the hearing.
00:08:55.480
The two most important words in the rule, in the law, do it.
00:09:00.740
So she's not wrong to say, you said you were going to do that.
00:09:11.860
Patrick, you asked Chris, what's the right question?
00:09:14.780
And then all of a sudden you and CNN look, look smart, look, uh, true, holding truth
00:09:21.960
She says, are you going to bring back the Maryland man?
00:09:24.980
And she teed him up to, that's a bullshit way to ask it.
00:09:29.200
And the media, especially in these settings, as we both know, that's a gotcha setting.
00:09:34.340
Nobody's having a real conversation in one of these, uh, press scrums, you know, and that's
00:09:39.800
why Trump thrives in them because he's a one line.
00:09:41.840
The only one who's done worse than the oval office in the last 90, 80 days, whatever
00:09:57.060
But the, um, look at the end of the day, it doesn't matter.
00:10:00.660
Why am I not covering this in a big way on my show?
00:10:05.100
I'm not in the business of the defending gangbangers.
00:10:11.440
You know what the next one's going to be is this Carmelo Anthony case that is going
00:10:15.920
to blow up in this country because it plays on race and perception and the media is going
00:10:24.300
I don't believe that Trump has the country with them and I don't think this period we're
00:10:27.420
in right now has helped them, but you know, this, we are very volatile right now and people
00:10:32.720
get angry real easy and they get reasonable real slow.
00:10:36.680
Look at, look at who the Democrats heroes are right now.
00:10:40.240
An MS-13 gang member, Luigi Mangione, who shot and killed a father in the middle of the
00:10:46.760
Mahmoud Khalil, who's a Palestinian Hamas propaganda freaking guy.
00:10:51.380
And then, and then Carmelo Anthony, who stabbed Austin Metzcalf.
00:10:55.160
And now not only did they take the bail from 1 million to 250,000, he's home and he's chilling
00:11:00.680
If that was the roles reversed and it was a white kid stabbing a black kid at a track
00:11:07.860
We would, that, that would have been the talk right now.
00:11:10.220
Cause there would have been riots in the streets, thousand percent.
00:11:16.160
I think it's a playbook because when I was sitting there watching this and I had, I got
00:11:20.240
my hackles up and I sat back and I thought for a second and I said, wait a minute, this
00:11:26.280
They're trying to get me to believe that this person is who it isn't.
00:11:29.260
And we all put, and they paraded out the young picture of what looked like a nice kid.
00:11:33.740
And it turns out that wasn't the kid that was in front of the cop.
00:11:37.580
It was the one that was tatted, that had trouble with the law.
00:11:39.880
And no one wanted to talk about how did that kid get from that picture of that, what looked
00:11:44.640
like it's just a sweet little boy up to this, this, this guy who had been through all this
00:11:49.140
stuff and was a much different guy that ended up in a scuffle that got him killed.
00:11:53.180
Yet they want to gaslight me and get me to believe that the guy was there.
00:11:57.300
And Obama, oh, I don't have any sons, but if I had a son, I'd probably look like Trayvon.
00:12:03.300
And I feel like, yeah, you talk about, talk about walking into a fist.
00:12:09.680
And so this gaslighting that's here, it's, and I'll tell you, I don't think it's gaslighting.
00:12:14.180
When Zaz goes to the Howling Company conference, he's going to brag about her.
00:12:23.260
And we got rid of all the other bigger contracts, right?
00:12:27.020
And CNN is, is on, man, they have not only jumped the shark, they're for sale.
00:12:31.980
And everybody knows they're for sale, which is the part that shocks me.
00:12:45.360
And she plays MAGA, by the way, because she used to work for the, what, the Daily...
00:12:56.600
She had deep, deep reach into Trump world, okay?
00:13:00.920
I don't know who it is or why it is, but she gets a lot of access from them and a lot
00:13:16.760
And at the end of the day, you're only as good as your number in that business.
00:13:30.100
Yeah, but Jake Tapper is going to be the guy who does the debates.
00:13:34.240
You know, you are your number in that business.
00:13:36.240
And if the numbers stay down, you're going to be gone.
00:13:40.160
So you're saying she ain't going away anytime soon?
00:13:42.700
Well, look, based on the numbers, she'd be gone yesterday.
00:13:52.160
And sometimes behind Jake, who's on at 4 o'clock in the afternoon.
00:13:55.720
Look, they've got to figure out their numbers there.
00:13:58.100
They're not unique in that position, but they definitely have problems in their prime
00:14:10.340
Is that really the amount of viewership she's got?
00:14:26.240
Now they're selling more often 35 to 54 because the marketplace is being forced to accept that
00:14:31.200
it's really people our age who have most of their disposable income.
00:14:36.800
I was the original gangster on the five, the center seat on the five for six years.
00:14:40.560
We were, Tudor O'Reilly, these numbers, the whole cable news world is shrinking.
00:14:49.240
Yeah, there's stratification and that's okay because at the end of the day, there's still
00:14:52.700
going to be a flight to value and curated audiences.
00:14:55.100
My concern about the culture is we're just addicted to the division.
00:14:58.780
You know, like you and I will both hear things like, oh, you seem like, you know, you're like
00:15:05.680
Now Eric Bowling, we are a culture of division.
00:15:08.920
Listen, people don't want to reward cooperation, friendship, amity, disagreement without being
00:15:25.340
I think you're, you're clearly the best on News Nation.
00:15:37.620
Right, I contend that that's why News Nation can't make ground on Fox because people want
00:15:46.320
And News Nation wants to be all the news for all the people, which is admirable.
00:16:01.360
But my cable portion is on Real America's Voice and YouTube and Rumble.
00:16:09.780
So I own the show, but I license it to Rav and also license it to Fox.
00:16:16.480
And the country, you got to bet on the country getting past the parties.
00:16:28.680
I say the same thing on Pat's show all the time.
00:16:32.720
If you run as a Democrat, I'll vote for you as a Democrat if you need me in the primary.
00:16:39.780
Can Stephen A. Smith get the support of Democrats?
00:16:44.800
Now, he won't get it if I have anything to say about it because I care about him too much.
00:16:50.060
And I don't want to see him get chewed up by that system because they'll start coming for him.
00:17:08.740
That's the way we are everywhere else in our life except for our politics.
00:17:11.480
Listen, I think Robert F. Kennedy Jr. should be the next president.
00:17:15.520
But people on my side, MAGA, don't like that because he comes from a Democrat place.
00:17:23.600
The country's just going wider and wider apart.
00:17:42.400
What I'm saying is I'm betting on something bigger than that.
00:17:46.040
That there are more independent critical thinkers in this country than we let on.
00:18:04.520
And what was going on with the left, mostly from a cultural perspective, because I believe
00:18:08.760
they got baited into a fight that they couldn't win, was more removed from normal than Trump.
00:18:29.220
Will he have more momentum running as a Democrat or as a Republican?
00:18:45.160
Or one of the other Trumps, who knows, could be Ivanka Trump for that.
00:18:58.600
No one even cares about the Republican Party anymore.
00:19:00.620
It's the new conservative party is Trump's party.
00:19:06.900
He would be a better disruptor of the left for us than actually running on our side.
00:19:12.540
A lot of you have been asking about the Cigar Lounge, that you want to come to it.
