00:00:30.000 What new things have formulated with Joe Kent?

00:00:32.520 Is that, okay, let me read that one and we'll get into it.

00:00:34.540 We'll open it up.

00:00:35.520 Trump counterintelligence chief who resigned over U.S.,

00:00:38.920 over war in Iran, under investigation for leaking.

00:00:44.180 Okay, so we have a bunch of things on this.

00:00:46.120 So, guys, be ready because I'm going to come to you.

00:00:48.400 And, Vinny, I'm probably coming to you first, okay?

00:00:50.780 What page is that, Rob?

00:00:51.740 Let's go, Vinny.

00:00:52.480 Page 16.

00:00:54.460 It doesn't match page 16, Rob, the story.

00:00:57.400 So, if you're.

00:00:57.900 Page 15, Trump counterintelligence.

00:00:59.880 Okay, so let me go to page 15.

00:01:02.660 So the former counterintelligence chief who resigned over the ongoing conflict with Iran

00:01:06.640 is reportedly under investigation of the FBI.

00:01:08.780 Joe Kent, who issued a scathing letter of the resignation,

00:01:12.300 national counterterrorism, has been accused of improperly sharing classified information

00:01:16.400 according to Semifer.

00:01:17.980 Semifer, the probing to his alleged misconduct has been ongoing for months

00:01:21.420 and predates his resignations from the intelligence agency.

00:01:24.500 This is Daily Mail.

00:01:25.780 The shocking development comes just hours after Kent told Tucker

00:01:28.480 that the U.S. was providing faulty intelligence from Israel

00:01:31.560 about the war.

00:01:32.320 White House officials suggested Tuesday

00:01:33.880 that Kent was an egomaniac

00:01:36.080 who was responsible for national security leaks.

00:01:38.760 Kent said in his post on X

00:01:39.840 that he could not in good conscience.

00:01:41.740 We read that.

00:01:42.260 Iran posed no amenity thread. 1.00

00:01:43.460 We read that.

00:01:44.440 It marks the first major and voluntary departure

00:01:47.040 of senior Trump administration officials

00:01:49.380 since he retook office last year.

00:01:51.340 So, Vinny, I've come to you first.

00:01:53.100 Yeah, well, I mean, listen, again, everything,

00:01:55.980 I saw Joe Kent's face maybe three months ago one time.

00:02:01.560 Never knew who he was.

00:02:02.580 Didn't do, you know, because he was never in the news.

00:02:05.060 So then when you do some research, I mean, obviously, Tom Woese, 11 tours.

00:02:08.200 How many tours did he have?

00:02:09.760 Decorated, Gold Star.

00:02:10.740 Decorated, like, soldier, loves America, lost his wife, I believe,

00:02:14.160 in a terrorist attack in Syria, if I'm correct.

00:02:18.560 That's correct.

00:02:18.800 All of a sudden, yeah, 11 completed combat tours, primarily in Iraq.

00:02:25.980 uh earned six bronze stars for his service so i don't know pat they're they're out of nowhere

00:02:31.980 this just come out of nowhere that this this happens because if first of all put the suicide

00:02:37.400 thank him for his service awesome as a veteran god rest his wife's soul but when it comes to 0.97

00:02:42.700 the stuff that we're hearing about leaked if anything from him was leaked because this is

00:02:48.300 what it's kind of sounding like was leaked and somehow because what's the first interview that

00:02:52.360 he did first interview first podcast went to tucker yep we're finding out from the cia and

00:02:58.460 mind you i talked about this earlier in the week the cia is not just going to wake up and go yo

00:03:02.960 we're going to monitor tucker because you guys know that they're not supposed to do any operations

00:03:06.780 or any surveillance on uh american soil that type no never no yeah no why would they do that

00:03:14.040 so that means that you're communicating with the foreign uh nation that we're freaking about to go

00:03:19.300 to war with they're gonna tap your phone so this is starting to look like there were some leaks on

00:03:24.800 the top that trickled down to somebody like tucker tucker was in communication with iran

00:03:29.620 and this is this could look really really really bad i think this is i think this is nastier than

00:03:34.680 you guys think way worse what do you think what do you think the oh i think this is gonna go all

00:03:38.580 the way to the top really i think this is gonna go your your opinion what do you think like how

00:03:44.820 How did this all, like, what made him go on X, post a letter, say he's going to retire?

00:03:51.240 No, no, no.

00:03:51.740 Or he's resigning?

00:03:53.140 Well, listen, allegedly, there was a couple guys that confronted him because he got caught showing,

00:04:00.460 and he promised that he wasn't going to do anything.

00:04:02.180 He finally confessed.

00:04:03.800 Showing what?

00:04:04.300 That he shared intel with Tucker.

00:04:06.040 Oh, man.

00:04:06.740 Okay?

00:04:07.160 And they addressed it.

00:04:08.640 They went up to him, allegedly.

00:04:10.060 Okay?

00:04:11.120 So, allegedly, they did.

00:04:13.340 But they, you mean intelligence?

00:04:15.100 They were like, yo, dude.

00:04:15.720 Yeah, guys are like, hey, why are you leaking info to Tucker?

00:04:19.440 And then he comes back, and now there is even stories.

00:04:24.500 So if you remember last year, again, remember, Laura Loomer last year.

00:04:29.160 Say what you want about her.

00:04:30.940 She got, you know, Waltz, you know, fired from his position, okay,

00:04:35.340 with the stuff that was showing.

00:04:37.060 Last year she says this.

00:04:38.500 I told you last year that Kent leaked President Trump's private messages.

00:04:42.380 In meetings, particularly his meetings with Jewish Republicans, to Tucker Carlson and Max Blumenthal, when admin officials caught Kent, who was in the hallway to Trump's office, when he was seen picking up his phone and texting Tucker, he was confronted by senior White House officials who wanted to see if he would lie to their faces.

00:04:59.160 So they cornered him and asked him if he leaked to Tucker.

00:05:02.580 They said he knew it was him.

00:05:05.120 Kent confessed.

00:05:05.980 Kent told him, if you ever do that again, you're fired.

00:05:09.180 Kent was told, if you ever do that again, again.

00:05:11.380 this is not a this was a year ago who told kent that the other officials told them the senior

00:05:17.300 white house officials so then now you're hearing reports that that this is this is a little bit

00:05:23.620 weird to even talk about now you're seeing reports of you know uh yesterday tulsi or two days ago

00:05:30.840 she's being asked and pressed on questions about this and her answer is very vanilla okay very

00:05:38.340 vanilla very very vanilla and remember for the last six months what has everybody been saying

00:05:43.100 where's Tulsi I haven't seen where's Tulsi where's Tulsi so to me is this it Rob where she's kind of

00:05:49.300 like uh said a lot of things in that letter yeah this is the one so if you want to oh it's a minute

00:05:53.960 30 if you yeah if you want to play it and go to the go play it now streaming on Paramount Plus

00:06:00.700 my center my soul is gone from academy award nominee taylor sheridan mine is not a family

00:06:08.740 designed to withstand tragedy starring academy award nominee michelle pfeiffer

00:06:14.480 and golden globe nominee kurt russell the worry is what you do next you will have as much life

00:06:21.180 to live as you allow yourself the madison new series now streaming only on paramount plus

00:06:27.880 Thank you. I also wanted to ask this because this week there was a high-profile resignation of Director of National Counterterrorism Center.

00:06:37.940 Now, I want to be clear from the outset.

00:06:39.680 I've communicated directly with President Trump my support for Operation Epic Fury,

00:06:43.960 and I was very not only disappointed but how inappropriate this letter was.

00:06:49.560 And I want to read a statement and get your personal assessment whether you agree or disagree with that, and that's this.

00:06:57.740 Early in this administration, high-ranking Israeli officials and influential members of the American media deployed a misinformation campaign that wholly undermined your America First platform and pro-war sentiments to encourage a war with Iran.

00:07:10.040 This echo chamber was used to deceive you into believing that Iran posed no imminent threat to the United States and that you should strike now. 0.73

00:07:16.300 This is so big right now, Vinny.

00:07:17.200 There was a clear path to a swift victory.

00:07:19.020 This is a lie and is the same tactic these Israelis used to draw us into a disaster. 1.00

00:07:23.460 It's about to come up.

00:07:25.180 Okay, right there.

00:07:26.260 uh he said a lot of things in the that letter ultimately we have provided the president

00:07:32.720 with the intelligence assessments and the president is uh elected by the american people

00:07:39.080 and makes his own decisions based on the information that's available to him but do

00:07:43.000 you agree with does that statement he made blaming israel concern you yes okay so watch this 0.99

00:07:49.120 go back from go back uh 20 seconds from the moment she starts talking to what she says

00:07:54.640 Tulsi's a pro.

00:07:55.640 Oh, I love it.

00:07:56.000 And look, but you have to realize what's going on here, Vinny.

00:07:58.980 Press play.

00:08:00.600 Listen, what's going on here?

00:08:01.780 He said a lot of things in that letter.

00:08:04.260 Ultimately, we have provided the president with the intelligence assessments.

00:08:09.080 Not position.

00:08:10.060 She's not defending position.

00:08:11.540 And the president is elected by the American people and makes his own decisions based on the information that's available to him.

00:08:16.460 We gave you the information.

00:08:17.920 You make the decision.

00:08:19.080 Right.

00:08:19.280 Pause it right there.

00:08:19.800 Pause it right there.

00:08:20.420 Because she's asking that follow-up.

00:08:22.140 Okay.

00:08:22.400 Go back when she starts following up with the question right there.

00:08:24.640 So watch her answer.

00:08:26.620 Does that statement he made, blaming Israel, concern you?

00:08:30.180 Yes.

00:08:30.780 What does that mean?

00:08:31.540 Yes.

00:08:32.480 Concern you could mean, yes, yes, it concerns me.

00:08:37.380 So, but yes could mean I agree with them.

00:08:40.840 Of course.

00:08:41.680 Not yes means I'm not.

00:08:43.600 It's a vague yes.

00:08:44.500 So she may resign in the next few days. 0.74

00:08:49.460 I wouldn't be surprised if she's next and she resigns. 0.89

00:08:52.000 I don't think she will be fired.

00:08:53.540 I think she will resign.

00:08:54.640 okay i think she'll step down in the next few weeks maybe and by the way my guesstimation my

00:09:00.440 gut feeling of her resigning 20 30 percent okay that's still a high number oh yeah that's pretty

00:09:05.080 high and let me tell you what else happened yesterday which is kind of weird story comes

00:09:08.940 out with jd vance now saying uh dropping stories out there to people which is what hey um i'm not

00:09:17.220 gonna run have you seen this rob can you see can you verify this if this is true or not

00:09:23.220 is a story from the AFP Post News saying that J.D. Vance

00:09:34.020 is considering not running for president in 2028 due to family priorities.

00:09:41.840 Did you guys see this or no?

00:09:43.920 You sent it in the podcast.

00:09:46.180 Yeah, not going to run in 2028.

00:09:48.620 Do you see anything coming up, Rob?

00:09:51.000 Yep, right there.

00:09:51.640 Okay.

00:09:52.500 The decision to keep J.D. Vance from the situation, Vance,

00:09:54.780 was deeply in the mind of the disease.

00:09:55.920 No, not this one, Rob.

00:09:57.400 It's a –

00:09:59.220 It was in the –

00:10:00.900 You just had it right there.

00:10:02.100 Go back to Twitter.

00:10:02.800 It was the next story.

00:10:05.000 No, not there.

00:10:05.840 Can I read it for you?

00:10:06.720 Yeah.

00:10:07.040 No, I have it.

00:10:07.840 Rob has it as well.

00:10:08.760 I just want him to find it.

00:10:09.880 I texted to him this morning.

00:10:11.860 So if you go to the – right there, above it.

00:10:17.680 Oh, yeah, it was the first thing you texted.

00:10:18.740 Yeah, J.D. Vance is considering not running for president in 2028

00:10:21.520 due to family priorities.

00:10:22.720 This is 18, 11 hours ago.

00:10:25.120 Vance will discuss this matter with his family

00:10:26.620 to decide if the timing is right,

00:10:28.180 if wife Usha is currently pregnant with their fourth child.

00:10:31.140 Other speculations suggest that Republican polling

00:10:33.280 shows strong push for Marco Rubio

00:10:35.420 and causing Vance to reconsider political environment.

00:10:38.520 Strategists caution that a heavily contested primary

00:10:40.860 followed by a general election loss as VP

00:10:43.180 could potentially decimate Vance's future ambitions

00:10:46.120 as the primary.

00:10:47.040 So, if you run and you lose in the primary to Rubio and you're the vice president,

00:10:55.720 that's a pretty heavy thing right there to happen.

00:10:58.100 So, to me, where does all this go?

00:11:00.520 The alliance.

00:11:02.300 Tucker, Joe Kent, probably Tulsi.

00:11:06.000 If Joe Kent is your direct report, you're probably part of that camp as well.

00:11:09.980 I think so.

00:11:10.520 Then you have probably Massey, and you have a small little dotted line to J.D. Vance.

00:11:15.780 So I think what just happened with Joe Kent is the nuclear bomb to put a divide between them.

00:11:26.240 And I know yesterday, the press secretary, who does a phenomenal job, she got up and she said,

00:11:31.260 to all the people that are saying stuff that's going on with Tulsi, shame on you and whatever,

00:11:34.640 you know, she kind of defended her while Tulsi is standing behind her.

00:11:39.160 But let's not get it twisted.

00:11:41.140 Tulsi's very ambitious.

00:11:42.720 Oh, yeah.

00:11:43.180 Tulsi is very ambitious, and she doesn't see herself as just having this job.

00:11:47.520 That's the one, Rob, I think.

00:11:49.540 Is that it? Yeah, play the clip.

00:11:51.060 I think, who is saying that, that she would release this to try to boost her standing with the president?

00:11:55.720 Who has said that?

00:11:56.460 Well, the president has publicly undermined her when it came to Iran.

00:11:59.660 He said she was wrong. He told me that she didn't know what she was talking about.

00:12:02.680 That was on Air Force One on camera.

00:12:04.740 The only people who are suggesting that the director of national intelligence would release evidence

00:12:08.840 to try to boost her standing with the president

00:12:10.560 are the people in this room

00:12:12.140 who constantly try to sow distrust

00:12:14.140 and chaos amongst the president's cabinet.

00:12:16.260 And it is not working.

00:12:17.820 I will just answer your question directly.

00:12:21.800 I am with the president of the United States every day.

00:12:24.060 He has the utmost confidence in Director Gabbard.

00:12:26.720 He always has.

00:12:27.800 He continues to.

00:12:28.720 And that is true of his entire cabinet

00:12:30.740 who is all working as one team

00:12:32.540 to deliver on the promises this president made.

00:12:35.000 Does anyone else have...

00:12:35.880 You can pause it.

00:12:36.520 She may be one of the best ones ever. 0.97

00:12:38.320 Now, obviously, I can't see she's the GOAT because we all know Kareem Jean-Pierre is the GOAT.

00:12:43.140 We can't ever undermine her for her to read off the papers.

00:12:47.360 Everything was written to her.

00:12:49.020 The chat GBT press secretary that we had, Kareem Jean-Pierre.

00:12:52.100 But I think something's going on here, and I think it goes all the way to the top.

00:12:55.500 By the way, can you verify this?

00:12:57.640 Did Joe Kent vote for Bernie Sanders?

00:13:00.520 Did he vote for Bernie Sanders?

00:13:01.640 Was he a Democrat until like 2021 or something like that?

00:13:04.700 2016, he voted for Bernie, apparently.

00:13:06.220 Until 2021, Joe Gant was a registered Democrat.

00:13:09.360 In 2020, he voted for Bernie Sanders in the Democratic primary.

00:13:12.840 Vinny, do you see this?

00:13:13.980 That he voted for Bernie Sanders in the Democratic primary.

00:13:16.400 He switched to the Republican Party in 2021.

00:13:18.460 Oh, so that's very recent.

00:13:19.760 Very recent.

00:13:20.560 So did Tulsi.

00:13:21.200 And not voted for Biden.

00:13:23.540 He voted for a socialist.

00:13:27.300 Not Biden.

00:13:28.140 So this isn't like Tulsi or this isn't like voted for Bernie.

00:13:34.500 Adam.

00:13:34.980 and also apparently voted for bernie in 16 when he was the right right uh but so with this joe

00:13:41.740 kent story the first thing i thought of when i heard well joe kent said something about trump

00:13:46.340 was who's joe kent i mean let's face it we study politics i've been actively studying politics for

00:13:54.800 at least a decade we've been doing the show for six years i've never heard of this person

00:13:58.720 have you ever heard of him before this situation the name didn't ring a bell to me you can't

00:14:04.960 So I want to know where you're going with that, because to me, you don't get the job,

00:14:09.520 the director of national counterterrorism, without being somebody.

00:14:13.660 No doubt.

00:14:14.300 Yeah.

00:14:14.680 You know, the vetting process should come into question.

00:14:17.780 But at the end of the day, we're saying, do you trust some guy you've never heard of

00:14:22.980 or the president of the United States that all four of us has voted for?

00:14:27.420 To me, it's 100% versus zero.

00:14:30.860 Now, let's go deeper of who this person is, though.

00:14:33.520 we're not just going to dismiss him and say can't trust anything because i don't know you

00:14:37.520 okay let's go a little deeper apparently he did vote for bernie in 16 then then vote for him in

00:14:43.340 the primary then there's even trump tweeted hey this is what this guy said two years ago

00:14:49.360 complete iran hawk and now he's this iran dove and then it's basically fizzled down to yeah yeah

00:14:58.400 trump's controlled by israel tell me where we've heard this before so to me at the very least he's

00:15:06.340 flip-flopping he's impressionable but at what point how did this happen so two quick stories

00:15:14.060 i used to have a uh my one of my best friend's younger brother uh when whenever i would see him

00:15:20.340 he was somebody new i was like oh what's up dude how are you he's like a little skater kid

00:15:25.280 the next time I see him he's a little gangster next time I see him a few years later he goes

00:15:30.020 yeah I'm actually becoming a rabbi becoming a rabbi what see him a few years later he goes no

00:15:35.500 I stopped being a rabbi I'm a teacher now and then I see him recently he's like a Jewish kid

00:15:41.920 but he's pro-Palestine I go listen at what point are you just completely confused with who you are

00:15:48.560 and are completely impressionable by the world around you to me that's Joe Kent he served in

00:15:54.740 our military respect but you're voting for bernie then you become maga then you become this iran hawk

00:16:00.740 then you're this iran dove and now because apparently his wife is very very very anti-israel

00:16:08.800 his new wife he's now accusing the trump of being a bb puppet how many times have we heard the putin 0.51

00:16:16.960 puppet thing and what did you say about the puppet strings with elon that's just the latest iteration

00:16:22.080 with this last thing about joe kent you know this is his second wife did you know this his first

00:16:28.360 wife god bless rest her soul was killed by isis in syria in i believe 2019 his wife was killed 0.69

00:16:37.980 by isis in syria nothing to do with israel his new wife the latest wife it's only been two years

00:16:47.160 is vehemently anti-israel so i i think he's gone through a lot i think he's confused i think he's

00:16:57.080 under major duress and stress he's flip-flopping on issues he's obviously had some major issues

00:17:02.620 in his life and you know they say who's the last person in your ear the last person in his ear now

00:17:08.300 is this max blumenthal far left isolationist anti-israel woman and that's the the latest

00:17:16.120 recreation of whoever joe kent is my my final thought is this joe kent himself is here today

00:17:23.240 gone tomorrow and trump and maga are stronger than ever have you seen what trump's rating is

00:17:28.960 within maga have you seen that path you're gonna pull it up rob it's insane i i had to like when

00:17:34.340 harry enton said the number i said let him let the audience here watch this folks it's uh harry

00:17:39.540 enton's yesterday doing a poll go ahead yeah you know sometimes you look at the polling data and

00:17:45.300 And there are numbers that just jump off the screen at you, and this is one of those.

00:17:50.180 Because just take a look here, MAGA GOP view of Trump, approve 100 percent, 100 percent.

00:17:57.080 If you are a member of MAGA and the GOP, you approve of Donald John Trump, zero percent

00:18:04.500 say that they disapprove.

00:18:05.940 You don't have to be a mathematical genius to know you can't go higher than 100 percent.

00:18:10.180 He is the 1972 Miami Dolphins.

00:18:14.280 Okay.

00:18:14.840 Look at the fine print.

00:18:16.220 66-31 among non-MAGA.

00:18:20.000 So that means Republican sides.

00:18:22.700 Even against non-MAGA, he still has two-thirds of them.

00:18:25.240 Correct.

00:18:25.720 That's right there.

00:18:26.240 When they say MAGA, they mean Trump's base.

00:18:29.340 Like guys like you.

00:18:30.680 The hardcore on MAGA 2.0.

00:18:34.300 But basically, listen, you do an Instagram poll.

00:18:37.240 You ever done an Instagram poll?

00:18:38.540 I could say, hey, do you want me to give you a million dollars 1.00

00:18:41.280 or do you want me to kick you in the balls? 0.99

00:18:43.300 you're going to still have 2% to 3% that's like, 0.99

00:18:45.520 I'm going to take that ball kick, buddy.

00:18:48.100 Tom's really into it.

00:18:48.980 You do not get 100% consensus on anything.

00:18:52.500 Yeah.

00:18:52.840 So let's just call that 98%.

00:18:54.660 That's where MAGA is with Trump.

00:18:56.940 They're not leaving Trump, the guy they've known to be the president

00:19:00.520 and the leader of their movement, for 10 years,

00:19:02.780 for some guy they've literally never heard of.

00:19:05.860 Nice try, buddy.

00:19:07.040 Tom.

00:19:07.880 We need to step back and look at something in Washington.

00:19:10.700 The history of leakers in Washington have come from intelligence communities and people that are undermining this president or that president.

00:19:21.360 One of the most famous leakers, if you know your history, was during Watergate.

00:19:26.920 And Woodward and Bernstein referred to it as Deep Throat.

00:19:32.420 Now, Deep Throat's got terrible connotations because it was the name of a porn film in the 70s.

00:19:38.040 Tom, let's just stay on politics and Watergate if you can.

00:19:40.480 Woodward and Bernstein referred to it.

00:19:42.660 I'm so sorry, Pat.

00:19:43.740 And, you know, the guy, I don't know if it shows it here,

00:19:45.820 but the guy who was eventually exposed to a Ben Deep Throat,

00:19:49.060 which was the guy that was leaking to Woodward and Bernstein,

00:19:51.880 Mark Felt, who was deputy director of the FBI.

00:19:57.580 And so now you've got a guy inside the intelligence community

00:20:01.320 that was leaking to a major member of the media.

00:20:04.980 This is the way it works.

00:20:06.360 Who was the member of the media?

00:20:08.480 Tucker Carlson.

00:20:09.540 Oh, interesting.

00:20:11.060 It's kind of a media voice.

00:20:12.840 Call him what you will.

00:20:13.820 He's a member of the new media, the alternative media that we're a part of.

00:20:17.200 We're a part of the podcast that people trust more than they trust regular.

00:20:21.800 But you think about that.

00:20:22.840 And also, do you know what happens in October?

00:20:25.040 On October of 2026, Tulsi celebrates her second anniversary of being a Republican.

00:20:31.960 Remember, she switched right before the election.

00:20:34.920 Happy anniversary, Tulsi.

00:20:35.840 I don't know what's going on, but people are selecting teams, and teams are becoming very obvious.

00:20:44.720 Something that Pat said two years ago, something very strange will happen, and you'll see alliances form, and some of them will surprise you.

00:20:53.380 You predicted it, and you didn't say who and when, but you said, guys, when things happen like this, alliances become visible that maybe were invisible, and alliances get made.

00:21:03.480 Can I ask you a question?

00:21:04.300 If J.D. Vance doesn't take family time off and actually,

00:21:08.400 which I don't believe, I think he's going to go against.

00:21:11.520 Well, he better hurry up and make a decision.

00:21:12.840 Do you think he would have, like, a Joe Kent as vice president?

00:21:15.460 What?

00:21:15.800 That's the worst combination for him.

00:21:17.580 Would it be?

00:21:18.180 Because he is Joe Kent.

00:21:19.740 So why would you have a Joe Kent?

00:21:21.740 J.D. Vance's best pick for vice president is Ron DeSantis.

00:21:25.720 Best pick.

00:21:26.100 Oh, wow.

00:21:26.800 He needs to get somebody that's a true conservative.

00:21:29.660 J.D.'s not.

00:21:30.720 He needs to get somebody like he needs a Mike Pence type.

00:21:33.660 Okay.

00:21:34.040 A safe, full-on conservative is who he needs.

00:21:37.040 He has to widen the lane.

00:21:38.080 Yeah.

00:21:38.320 Remember, Trump for 2016, Pence was the right pick.

00:21:42.780 Trump for 2024, J.D. was the right pick because who he needed in 2016 was the traditional conservative rhinos, all that stuff.

00:21:50.080 And they got it with Pence, evangelicals.

00:21:52.300 And what he needed in 2024 was the technocrats, and he got it with J.D.

00:21:55.840 Yeah.

00:21:56.580 So you have to realize it's a very, very different strategy. 0.99

00:21:59.100 So, for J.D., if he runs Joe Kent, 100% you're a loser. 0.94

00:22:02.880 It's a horrible pick together. 0.97

00:22:04.320 Joe Kent is here today, gone tomorrow.

00:22:05.540 I don't think we'll ever see this guy again.

00:22:07.820 Remember, when everybody said Michael Avenatti,

00:22:10.320 Michael Avenatti, he's going to run for office.

00:22:12.060 Here's my question.

00:22:12.980 I don't know if Joe Kent and what he's going to end up doing.

00:22:15.340 By the way, Joe Kent, you know, if he did this stuff.

00:22:20.200 Oh, he's in deep trouble.

00:22:21.000 And they haven't, he's getting arrested.

00:22:22.660 Oh, yeah.

00:22:23.020 Yeah.

00:22:23.600 Just so you know, if he did, I'm not saying he did.

00:22:25.560 Yeah.

00:22:26.060 If he did, he's getting arrested.

00:22:27.220 But what's worse is, okay, when I sell my business, I want the best tax and investment advice.

00:22:33.620 I want to help my kids, and I want to give back to the community.

00:22:36.760 Ooh, then it's the vacation of a lifetime.

00:22:41.120 I wonder if my head of office has a forever setting.

00:22:44.000 An IG Private Wealth Advisor creates the clarity you need with plans that harmonize your business, your family, and your dreams.

00:22:52.300 Get financial advice that puts you at the center.

00:22:54.800 Find your advisor at igprivatewealth.com.

00:23:24.800 If he went to Tulsi and cleared a tweet with Tulsi and J.D. Vance,

00:23:35.220 if he did that, this is not just bad, this is horrible all the way to the top.

00:23:43.980 Yeah.

00:23:44.820 So that's what I'm saying to you.

00:23:46.660 That AFN news, who was that site?

00:23:49.820 Are they a credible source?

00:23:51.100 I don't know who they are.

00:23:52.420 They share a lot of stories, and who knows?

00:23:55.360 Well, I'll say this.

00:23:56.480 One story is not enough to draw any conclusions.

00:24:00.040 If you start seeing this story pop up on different media outlets about J.D. Vance,

00:24:06.000 about taking some time off, that's when there's smoke, there's fire.

00:24:10.180 I think you'll find some credibility there.

00:24:11.860 This is the first and only story of this kind.

00:24:13.940 Is that right, Pat, that we've seen?

00:24:15.320 Yes.

00:24:15.920 So I think it's a little too premature to go that path.

00:24:20.380 I mean, he doesn't have to make any decision anytime soon.

00:24:22.200 I actually agree that it's very premature to go that path.

00:24:25.640 But, you know, it is what it is.

00:24:27.420 It is something that's going on.

00:24:29.040 And if you look at the odds, Pat, where's Rubio versus Vance in terms of the Calci?

00:24:33.420 Go to Calci.

00:24:34.100 Let's take a look at Calci right now.

00:24:37.780 I want to say that Rubio has now surpassed Vance.

00:24:42.500 Rubio, not yet.

00:24:44.580 Not yet.

00:24:45.240 Okay, he's closing in on him.

00:24:46.820 He is.

00:24:47.260 Nine points.

00:24:47.700 And that's for the Republican nominee.

00:24:49.100 Do you have for who would likely be president?

00:24:52.080 To get past the primary, how closely do you think J.D. is watching this?

00:24:58.240 Oh, what do you mean?

00:24:59.180 That's every morning.

00:24:59.960 How closely do you think their team is watching this?

00:25:02.080 Oh, big time.

00:25:02.680 Look at that.

00:25:03.260 Look at it.

00:25:03.680 It's a three-way tie.

00:25:05.120 If you scroll down, Rob, if you see it, bing, bing, bing, there you go.

00:25:08.300 The fact that Gavin Newsom.

00:25:10.280 So, J.D.'s gone up in the last couple days.

00:25:12.600 What a bunch of people.

00:25:13.260 And Rubio's gone down in the last couple days.

00:25:15.440 Yeah, it'll fluctuate.

00:25:17.180 I mean, the volatility of it.

00:25:18.220 You know what I think will be the tipping point for Rubio?

00:25:19.280 My opinion.

00:25:20.920 In the next, you said, three to six months, Iran's going to be done. 0.97

00:25:23.740 Let's just say that.

00:25:25.080 Who's the next piece on the chessboard?

00:25:27.440 Cuba.

00:25:28.020 Cuba.

00:25:28.860 Who knows better of what's going on in Cuba than Marco Rubio?

00:25:32.500 Nobody.

00:25:34.500 We've seen these memes of Rubio sitting there.

00:25:39.000 He's the president of Venezuela.

00:25:41.540 He's the Ayatollah of Iran.

00:25:43.220 Next thing you know, he's going to be the dictator of Cuba.

00:25:47.240 I think that has a lot of weight.

00:25:48.700 Gang, a reminder to all of you.
