welcome to Scrolling with Haley. I'm Haley Carania and I know there's been some crazy, very serious breaking news from over the weekend, but I just wanted to say before we get into all of that, thank you so much because guess what? Today is. Or I should say yesterday. Yesterday was my first anniversary of moving to Florida. Which means on tomorrow. Yeah, tomorrow's show would have been. Or yeah, a year from my first show of Nightly Scroll. And I know that so many things have happened in this first year. You know, it was Nightly scroll. Of course, a lot of you have been here since then and now all the changes, different set, different show name, different time. So the show has been through a lot in this first year. But I just wanted to say thank you for, for everyone who has been here from the very beginning. You are helping make my dreams come true. And I love doing this job every day. So I just wanted to say thank you because without all of you watching this, this would be nothing. I would have nothing. So you are part of making my dreams come true, which I am eternally grateful for. And we've got a lot of work to do. So make sure that you tell a friend about the show. Especially with the time change, the. Everything's changing. So just make sure that you, you tell a friend because that's important. That's how we grow the show. And make sure that you're subscribed right here on the Bongino Report Channel, rumble.com Haley will bring you here. I'm sure a lot of you are already subscribed, but if you haven't, please do so. And if you listen, make sure that you are subscribed on whatever podcast platform you listen on, Apple Podcasts, iHeart, Spotify, wherever you listen. I appreciate it. And, and tell a friend, like I said. So let's get into everything from over the weekend. Iran, we were just joking right before the show started. I'm like, I'm going to pronounce this wrong. Iran. We're going to go with Iran for the show. And hopefully that I stick with that pronunciation. But we might be switching on and off throughout the show. But Iran's supreme leader is dead after a joint military effort between the US And Israel. We're going to go inside the reaction here at home, how the media has spun this news their way and how it may have inspired the deadly mass shooting in Texas. Then I want to get into a tinfoil hat time theory about this Hollywood replacement theory. And it's continuing with Jim Carrey, who showed up on a red carpet looking unrecognizable. So we're going to get into that. Put your phones on. Do not disturb. The show starts now. Is dead. President Trump and the brave members of our military carried out Operation Epic Fury over the weekend. Can you get over that name? Because I can't. I am so in love with it. It is so badass. And our military is badass. It's just a perfect name for this. And the White House calls it a military campaign to eliminate the imminent nuclear threat posed by the Iranian regime, to destroy its ballistic missile arsenal, degrade its proxy terror networks and cripple its naval forces, which they were successful in doing. Israel and the US Bombed the Iranian missile sites, targeted its navy, destroyed its headquarters and multiple warships. And I think President Trump said something funny about President Trump is actually, he's funny almost all of the time. Even when there's something serious like this, he manages to make me crack up. He said something about creating jobs in Iran because now there's a supreme leader position open, which is just funny. And then he also said, you know, we did some damage to the warships, but I think they'll be okay. He just cracks me up. And Iran has been firing missiles now at Israel and other Arab states on this counteroffensive attack since the attack on Saturday. And unfortunately, three U.S. army soldiers were killed. Those soldiers were deployed to Kuwait, where we have a, an embassy, because we obviously don't have an embassy in Iran. And Iran has been carrying out these retaliatory strikes across the Mid east and several military, US Military planes crashed, but everyone has survived those crashes. And President Trump promised that he would avenge the, the deaths of those three American troops who were killed in Kuwait and said that there are sadly going to be more where that started. I mean, there are going to be more deaths. And he quite simply said that's the way it is. And Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has detailed a three pronged plan and has also assured us that this will not be an endless war. This isn't going to be like we're going into Iraq for 20 years. This isn't going to be a decades long military effort. This is going to be quick. And Secretary Hegseth also spoke to reporters earlier and confirmed that four American lives have been taken so far. And he also echoed the President's sentiment, saying that unfortunately, more lives will likely be taken. So the three pronged approach is destroy Iran's offensive missile capabilities, cripple its navy, and prevent them from obtaining a nuclear weapon. And these are their main reasons. But the White House is also concerned, of course, about human rights abuses at the hands of the oppressive regime. And last month, the Ayatollah ordered security forces to kill protesters. The Iranian regime has killed 3,100 protesters. Protesters just in a month. And that's what they were reporting. It's estimated that it was much more than that, likely 6,000. So after killing those innocent protesters, the Ayatollah blamed foreign enemies for provoking that bloodshed. Being like these protesters going out here protesting us, that's their fault and we had to kill them. And if you are a protester in the United States of America and you get killed, it is likely a skill issue and user error because we don't live under some authoritarian regime. Despite what the media and other libtards will tell you. The truth is the United States Constitutional Republic is very strong. We are a powerhouse in every way. We are the envy of the world. We defend democracy and free speech in places that don't. And we will kidnap or kill your dictator if we so choose. We can. We will. And Trump did. So while the US Is defending our ideals like freedom of speech, feminism, capitalism abroad, American women who live in the most free country on the planet are convincing themselves, of course, that they are oppressed. You know how it goes. Any time Trump does something, whether he's sending national guard troops to D.C. to clean up crime, they. They put their handmaid's tail bonnet on and they act like they are under siege. It's absolutely ridiculous. But here is the truth. Watch.
Guest or caller
In Iran, you can get arrested for walking a dog and then they can take your dog away. Because according to Islam, dogs are najes, which means unclean. In Iran, you will get arrested, not can, will. If you're a female solo singer, it is against the law in Iran. Not that you have to wear hijab, but if your hijab is not to the liking of the regime forces, they can push you forcefully into a van and take you to jail. And then things that happen in those jails, let's just say that they're not ethical. In Iran, you are not allowed to change your religion or choose your religion. If you do so, you, you will be executed. In Iran, they would line us up as children, force hijab on us and force us to chant death to America. I mean, I wouldn't call that school. I would call that a cult that is trying to brainwash children into a terrorist mindset. In Iran, there are stations with regime forces and they can stop your car and see if the person next to you is a girlfriend, a boyfriend, or, or you're married to. If you're not married to them, you can get arrested in five years. Imagine that a Big Mac went from $6 to $600. That's exactly what happened in Iran. Well, roughly, I think it's even more than that. And everything I'm telling you is not even the worst thing that's happening in Iran. Every time people request a regime change and they start to protest, the regime shuts off the Internet and, and starts shooting people with military grade weapons children. Regime forces in the past two to three weeks have killed more than 50,000 people. So, yeah, if you have opinions about how Iranians should feel, perhaps you should go to Iran, live with the regime and maybe raise a child or two and then we can speak about it.

Wow. And for this reason, the Iranian people and Iranian Americans are showing their gratitude towards the United States and President Trump's action. Watch this. Make Iran great again. Iranian flags. American flags being waved together. Trump flags. Burn in hell. They're dancing, people are elated, and they're doing the Trump dance. You know, I do the Trump dance every day during this show.
Usa.
Usa. Chance. This is so, so cool. And then I saw this too, in la. This, I'm sure this pissed off the liberals in la, but this banner was being flown behind a plane and it said, thank you, Trump. Love Iranian Americans. And this was being flown around in la. Thank you, Trump. Heart from Iranian people. And you just know that this pissed off people down below the, down on the land. They were thinking, oh man, oh man, not Trump. We're not thinking Trump, are we? All the libtards, right? But it's no shock really, as to why American liberal women are so in denial. Their preferred media platforms affirm their view that, yes, you are oppressed. Donald Trump is a dictator. Anything that Trump does needs to be protested, resisted, and of course, most importantly, post about it on Instagram. Here's the New York Times headline yesterday, ayatollah Ali Hamani, hardline cleric who made Iran a regional power, is dead at 86. So when someone dies, they're a disgusting, deranged, demonic dictator, evil dictator. You, you, you, you category. You characterize them as a hard line cleric. Like, that's too nice for me. That's too nice. In my opinion, someone who made Iran a regional power, like this reads, this headline to me reads as an obituary for someone's grandma. Like, it's just so matter of fact. Like, he wasn't the most disgusting dictator. I just don't understand how you can sleep at night. They call President Trump worse names. They'll call Trump a dictator, a fascist. They'll call Trump an authoritarian. They'll call the Trump administration an evil regime, oppressive regime. And then when they cover an actual oppressive regime, it's just like the nicest words that they could find. They just stick to the facts. They stick to the facts with a dictator. They don't stick to the facts with President Trump. And this is nothing new. You remember the Washington Post, how they covered this austere religious scholar? This was Al Baghdadi when he died under Trump's first term. They had to change their headline. The first one, the original one was Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi, Austere Religious Scholar at helm of Islamic state dies at 48. Then they had to change the headline to Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi, Extremist Leader of Islamic state dies at 48. Of course, it's the austere religious scholar. And then they got kickback and, and flat flack for, for calling him such nice names. And then they had to come and tell the truth and say, oh, well, well, he was actually an extremist leader. That's how I feel about the New York Times headline, Hardline Cleric, you know, brought Iran to this, this state that. It was like, what side are you on? It's not only un American, it is blatantly false. It's being a contrarian for the sake of doing the opposite of what Trump wants to do. Right? And then I saw this video from Reuters, which I just thought was wild. Like, the headline that they put on this video is wild Iranians Mourn the Death of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, who was killed in U.S. israel, airstrikes. So they, of course, they find the women crying. But then you see the Iranian flags. We are going to rip them apart, hold these people accountable. We're going to rip them apart. They're being out of line. Martyrdom is our honor. It's our right and our leaders unquestionable rights to be martyred. But they're being out of line. So they found a few women crying, Waving flags and mourning. I mean, I. I guess it's possible, but most of the videos that I've seen are celebrations of the Supreme Leader's death. And I don't mean a celebration of life, I mean a celebration of his death. Do some people in Iran support him? I'm sure they do. I don't doubt that. But you can count on the American media to only tell that side of the story. Not both sides, not the truthful side, but the side that puts them opposite Trump. When the media tells you who they are, believe them. When the Democrats tell you who they are, believe them. Because this local CBS News affiliate apparently didn't want this reporter to touch on the pro Trump nature of the protests and rallies happening around him. But. But he decided to do so anyway. Watch. They don't want us to focus on this. Well, I am. That's his response to getting a text message from seemingly some higher up. Well, I am. They don't want me to run with this, but I am. This means he has good editorial judgment. He is boots on the ground. He sees a story, he's running with it. He has good instincts. There may be, you know, some higher up at the network, some news director or something sitting at home looking at his social media, maybe a more macro view what's going on, and likely biased thinking. Well, this isn't an angle that we really want to focus on. And just because it doesn't fit the narrative that the network wanted to go in doesn't mean that this isn't the story. And the reporters seem to put his best judgment before that of his superior, who clearly didn't make the right decision. But the US Is killing of the Iranian Supreme Leader may have inspired an attack here at home in Austin, which I'm going to get to right after this break. I want to tell you about Helix Sleep. This time of year, when I'm doing my spring reset, cleaning, organizing, getting my life back in order, the one upgrade that's really changed my days is Helix Mattress. I've had mine for a while now.

Helix sleep.com h a y l e Y well, in the early hours of the morning on Sunday, shots rang out on 6th street in Austin, Texas's entertainment district. Lots of UT students were out on a Saturday night, looking forward to spring break, enjoying their friend's company. Then a crazed lunatic decided to open fire on a popular beer garden. He started firing from his vehicle, then continued shooting into the open beer garden while getting out of his car. Thankfully, police officers were able to kill the shooter within minutes, but not before he killed two others and injured 14 people. And I was reading a report from a local newspaper and they interviewed one of the victims who is lucky to survive a bullet grazing his head. And he said he's never going to the 6th street bars ever again. And that really hit me because I can't imagine the trauma of going through something like this. You're in college, you're out with your friends, the next minute there are bullets flying at you. He talked about grabbing his friends, pulling them down to the ground with him and realizing, oh, we're fighting for our lives right now. And it happens within seconds. And he said, I pulled my friends down to the ground, and all of a sudden I saw blood pooling on the ground around me. And he's like, it took me a few seconds to even realize that I had been hit. And it was my blood. He was like, I'd never seen, seen that much of my own blood before. And he said, it's, it's shocking to see your own blood pooling around you. He had never seen anything like that before. And that is so traumatic. He's, he's a college student. He's like, yeah, I'm never going to go to the bars again. And it's just, it was a perspective that I'd never seen before or heard before. And the lasting impact that this is going to have on these kids is just so great. And the news cycle, I talk about this all the time on the show, how fast the news cycle goes. And, you know, we Forget all of these things that we're outraged about. You know, weeks later, months later, years later, we forget all of these stories. And for these people, they just don't move on from it. This is their life. And, you know, some people will see this situation and they'll argue, well, this is why we can't have these kinds of weapons. They can kill so many people so fast. And I see this situation and think, the more cops, the better. The more good guys with guns, the better, because you can't root out all evil. You just have to be better equipped to stop it. And that's why bans don't work, restrictions don't work. Criminals don't care about laws. It's already illegal to shoot up a bar. It's already illegal to shoot at a school or a concert or a place of worship. That's already illegal. So if you think that guns were. Were banned and the government went through some sort of a buyback program that criminals would be lining up to comply, give me a break. And the evil people that give that carry out these kinds of attacks, certainly they don't care. They don't care about human life. So if they don't care about human life, they certainly don't care about the rules and regulations that are in place to protect them. And this specific shooter wore this to carry out this atrocity. A sweatshirt that says Property of Allah. Great. So now we start wondering and start asking the questions. Who is this guy? What was his motive? And not only did his sweatshirt say Property of Allah, he had a shirt underneath that had an Iranian flag. So the FBI is investigating a nexus to terrorism. The FBI, Acting Special Agent in Charge Alex Duran said that the FBI was on site doing digital forensics, and they are examining indicators that connected this suspect to potential terrorism. They. He said this quote, Obviously, it's still way too early in the process to determine an exact motivation, but there were indicators that on the subject and in his vehicle indicate potential nexus to terrorism. So who is this guy? Where was he radicalized? Why was he driven to do this? And did it have anything to do with the Ayatollah being taken out? Well, it turns out that no shocker here. The shooter is emotionally disturbed, as are all mass shooters, obviously. And he has a history of arrests. Yep. So this is a career criminal. He has been arrested in New York City and in Texas multiple times. And, no, he wasn't born here. He was living in New York City. And he came to New York City in 2000 from Senegal. So he wasted no times committing Crimes. Within the first year that he was living in New York, he was arrested. Then he was arrested multiple times between two 2001 and 2016. So I just want to go through this timeline because it's off. It doesn't make sense. He got to the United States in 2000, and reports are saying that he became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 2013. So 13 years later, he becomes a U.S. citizen. Then I read that sources say he filed for asylum in 2016. How does that make any sense? Why would you need to file for asylum if you're already a naturalized U.S. citizen? You're no longer eligible or in need of asylum. Asylum from what? You're already an American citizen. So that makes no sense. I don't know if he was maybe doing that because. No, I don't even know. I was thinking maybe because he had some criminal convictions, maybe, or he was being arrested, maybe this would give him some layer of protection in a sanctuary state. Maybe. I don't know. But there's no reason to seek asylum if you're already a citizen. That, again, that does not track with me. And I wrestle with this. There are a few issues that I wrestle with, and I'm always honest with you about where I stand, because sometimes I just don't know. And that's okay, because I'm wrestling with this now, this issue of immigration. Because I always say that, come here the right way. I'm pro legal immigration, anti illegal immigration. Pretty simple, right? And even though this guy was technically naturalized, eventually I would put him in the illegal immigrant category. If you come here and you fly under the radar for decades and you don't get your papers and you're committing crimes and then you become naturalized 13 years later, that is not the kind of immigration I'm supporting. So maybe I should be more distinct when I say, yeah, I'm just pro legal immigration. Because there has to be a better way to vet these people. In my opinion, the faster you can become a citizen, the better. But that doesn't mean bypass the vetting process. The vetting process has to be solid, rock solid and fast. But you can't compromise the vetting process. You can't let these people slip through the cracks. You need to demonstrate a will to integrate into American society and to become a citizen. Not just sit on your ass, take this country for granted and be a career criminal, and then go through paperwork or fly under the radar long enough. There needs to be a balance where I respect your right to practice your religion. But then again, if your religion is diametrically opposed to American culture. Then what? So this is where I'm struggling now because I think our founding fathers were brilliant, but I don't think they knew what other religions were capable of. I don't think they thought that people could become so radicalized that their religion became more of a death cult than a faith. Because I'm not so sure now. I don't think we're talking about religion now. And people are now excusing death cults under freedom of religion. And it's frustrating because I love this country so much. I love the Constitution. The Constitution is supposed to protect the country and our ideals. But the freedom of religion, you know, 200 plus years later might be the death of us. How can we respect the religion of people who want to kill us? Because clearly this guy hates America. And even though he lived here for 13 years, he still hated America. That's deep down, that's who he is. That's based on his religion. They tell people, death to America. They grow up with that mentality. So then I question even why did he come here in the first place? And I think a lot of illegal immigrants, they, they come here just because it's better than where they're coming from, obviously. But they don't care about our ideals or upholding them. They don't care about anything we do. So is there a way to figure this out before we let these people come into our country and become citizens? Because there's a difference between being an American citizen who voices their distrust and their hatred of the government protected by the first Amendment and then an immigrant who has the opportunity of a lifetime to live in the greatest country in the world. And, and they hate it so much or they're so loyal to their home country or their religion that they don't have a vested interest in their own success or the success of the nation. They put themselves first. They don't want to become a part of this fabric. They want to remain dedicated to this radical Islam while living in the greatest country on earth. And we are the greatest country on earth because we aren't ruled by Sharia law and radical Islam. So we need to vet these people and not let them in just because they want entry. Wanting entry isn't good enough. That's why I'm sick of the bleeding heart liberals whining about asylum seekers. You should be so lucky to seek asylum here. It is a privilege, not a God given right to live here. And we need to start being a little pickier when it comes to those we give that privilege to. And we certainly need to undo the atrocities of the administration's past who have put all of us at risk with open border policies. And speaking of the American citizens making their voices heard. And listen, I defend free speech vehemently. You are allowed to hate your government. You sound stupid and entitled when you live in the greatest country on earth, but you're allowed to look stupid, you're allowed to hate it, you're allowed to criticize it. And even I criticize the American government. What is particularly horrifying, though, are American college students at Columbia University siding with the state sponsor of terrorism, the largest state sponsor of terrorism in the world, Iran, in the wake of the Ayatollah's death, even worse, pro Palestinian groups that are prevalent on campus posted on X death to America, and the post was removed from X, but the group has doubled down, they've posted about it, about it again. And this is all because Israel was involved. And a lot of these college students, liberal college students these days, they. They hate America and they hate Israel. So they look stupid to be studying at an Ivy League university in. Once again, I can't state this enough. The greatest country on earth and to be calling for its demise, it is so disheartening. And I have to wonder how we got here. It didn't happen overnight. Have some of these students been radicalized online recently? Is this simply just anti Trump stupidity or is it more sinister? And I think that it is more sinister. And they're wrapping up these stupid sheep in their process. And I hope that these students are just being naive and they'll wake up one day and realize that they were being stupid, cheap. But I wonder if this is the work of one of our foreign adversaries and they've been planting seeds on our soil for years, sowing division, creating tension, and using young people as useful idiots to help take us down from within. And with this shooter, you know, the FBI is working on this link to terrorism based on what he was wearing and also what they had found in his car, which I don't know what that is. But I worry about sleeper cells and I worry deeply about the future of our nation, because there isn't just one, right? I mean, this guy in Austin, Texas, how many more are like him? And how many were let in under the Biden administration alone, where tens of millions of illegal aliens were let in? Are they all just good people who want to work hard and make a better living for themselves and for their families? Odds are that's not true. I'm Sure a lot of them are. I'm sure a lot of them want to come here for a better life because they will have a better life here. But how many of those tens of millions have good intentions and how many don't? And I just really worry that this one might set off a chain reaction, especially now in the response to what happened to Iran's supreme leader. Like if these college students are so beholden to Palestine and they are so deeply moved by Iran, which makes absolutely no sense and everything that they stand for is a double standard. Like how can you possibly be learning on a Ivy League campus? And there are women on this Ivy League campus that don't have to cover their hair. They get to drive. They are not killed and raped for doing things that we are very lucky to do here. Like how can you, how can you make sense of that? You can't. But they do because they just, they don't. They ignore, they have to ignore the truth to support their viewpoints. And it just, it makes me sick to think about, makes me absolutely sick to think about. Then in Austin also. And this just goes into my absolute hatred for self driving cars. And I hate Waymo. And to make matters worse, again, 14 people were injured, two were killed. Aside from the shooter himself, a Waymo was blocking traffic. There are emergency vehicles attempting to get to people that desperately need help. Like I said, I'm painting the picture for you. There are college students bleeding out on the ground and this Waymo is in the middle of the street. Watch. So you see the red and blue lights, you see the ambulance trying to get through and the Waymo is just. Cat's got its tongue. I don't know, it's just in the middle of the street moving slowly out of the way. And again, I don't know if there are people in this car, but at what point does the emergency vehicle have the right to just mow it down?
I think way sooner than this.
Like I guess you can determine if no one is in the car and it's just a self driving car. Again, I don't know if there are people sitting in that car. If there are people sitting in the car, I could understand why they wouldn't just like plow through it.
I think even if there are people in the car, they still have the right to do it.
Right? I know, it's like even if it
was a driver car, that's a funny distinction. Driver and driverless car. There was a driver. I think they still have a right.
If you're blocking law enforcement or like there are parked cars on the side. Hit the parked cars and get to the people that need help. But this wayo. And again I was reading comments under this video and people were like defending Waymo being which is just so like the mental gymnastics you have to do to defend a self driving car over the people that need help is so, it's dystopian. It's like what are we doing? The empathy that people have for robots over real people is it needs to be studied. And someone in the chat said this is why AI won't take over the world. It's going to ruin us and kill us. Like that is the point. It is not smart enough right now. Like it is not going to take us over right now, but it is quite literally putting us in harm's way already. And it just makes me sick. Like there are people waiting to be. I'm thinking of this kid that I read his story, like he's bleeding out on the sidewalk. Thankfully he's okay and he's being treated in the hospital. But to think of how many people like in a situation like this, seconds matter, milliseconds matter and there's a damn Waymo in the middle of the street and people are defending the Waymo being like well this is the, this is what happens when it sees emergency lights, it stops and it's like, okay, well everyone else who's on the road sees emergency lights and pulls over to the right side.
Not blocks, three lanes of traffic.
Correct. So what kind of defense is that? I don't understand that. Maybe Waymo should program its self driving cars to move to the side when there's an emergency vehicle. Again, I, I have questions because in this moment like you could get around that even if you have to hit the car on the side.
Well they also don't know what's happening. Like the obvious way around it is in front of the car. You don't know if it's malicious, like Right.
You don't know if it's going to drive. Right. And that's the thing with self driving cars. If there was an actual human driver, you could make eye contact with them and see like people are most likely not going to ram into you unless they're a terrorist. If you make eye contact with them, they're not going to like go kill you. They're just not. So you could make eye contact and kind of have a non verbal communication like hey, can we get through? Or you could roll down your window and literally say like stop or whatever. But with a Self driving car. You just don't have that option. And I'm wondering too, who, who cares about self driving cars? Can we just abolish them altogether? Like, who is asking for this? I don't even. I think that people who, who order self driving cars, it's for the story. They're doing it to say, oh, I got a self driving car. Ooh, live the future. Like, what is the, what is the. I don't understand.
I did it in Arizona and that was the only reason we did it was for like to do something.
Yeah, I saw them that. The first time I ever saw a wayo was in Arizona, I think Scottsdale, in that area, Phoenix. Like they have them all over the place. You can't, you can't drive there without seeing them. They're all over.
Well, like per their website, like if it gets into a complex scenario, it's supposed to be taken over by like a human like remote in.
Right.
Where's, where is that protocol at this point?
Right. And that also begs the question, if there needs to be someone monitoring it, why don't we put them in the driver's seat? I don't know. Crazy, crazy concept. But if someone has to be monitoring the self driving car, it's not even self driving.
I just thought of this for the first time. I'll play devil's advocate. You don't have to tip a self driving car. Oh, there's a tim function, don't kid yourself.
Is there a tip function?
Absolutely.
For what? The person monitoring it. Because you can't even get away from the human beings operating it. Someone said old people and drunks. Is that, that, is that who uses?
I mean I've had some bad Uber drivers, so it's like catch 22. Like risk a crazy bad Uber driver or no driver at all.
At least you could reason, maybe with a person, a human being.
Yeah, for sure.
And then there's a layer of delay. Like if your Waymo is going totally crazy, you have to press a button, get on the line with someone else, then they have to take over the car instead of just the person's right there.
It's a lot of trust in the Waymo. I'll say that I didn't love it.
Someone said, I signed up for someone in the chat. I signed up for Waymo. It's only available for downtown Miami right now, not Miami Beach. I. Someone in the chat said I wouldn't get in one. I would not get in one. Not in Miami, not in Miami, but not every, not anywhere. I, I'VE seen, I've played videos of who's on this show before and almost every time the Waymo is doing something absolutely like blocking traffic, merging onto the highway and then just stopping like. And then this one is the worst, the one that I just played, this is the worst possible position where the Waymo, I guess worst case scenario is the Waymo kills someone. But this is potentially putting someone in harm's way. So it's just so stupid. Then this video. Did Vince cover this this morning? The stabbing on the highway? I didn't get to watch the show. You guys can tell me in the chat or you guys, they're not paying attention to me. I'm on an island by myself.
No, he did not.
He didn't. I'm shocked that he didn't cover this.
It was brief.
It was brief.
Yeah.
This is one of the craziest things I've seen and I actually, I wanted to have Scott Bryson on the show today. So maybe I'll bring this story back up whenever I can get him. Because this is a road rage incident turned into a violent, deadly stabbing of on the highway near D.C. and watch this video. So there, this is the aftermath where there was a, A serial stabber went on a stabbing spree on the highway. And I, I know that this is, there's videos after these things happened, but I don't, I don't know how this could even get to this point. Point. This is obviously someone that is so deranged and so mentally unstable and angry. Like, you kind of have to wonder, you know how they say, like, be kind to someone because you don't know what they're going through. This person had to, they have to be mentally ill. This isn't just like a bad day. This isn't. You have a bad day and you get, you know, someone cuts you off or something and you get stabbed. And again, someone in the chat just said a stabber on the highway. What the. Literally, my, my thing when I saw this is how does. Why are people getting out of their cars on the highway too? It's not like this is a street where people aren't going very fast. You would assume that on 495, people are going 60, 70, 80, 90 miles per hour in some cases. I'm not speaking for myself when I say that, um, no, but people drive very fast on the highway. So how did we get to a point where you're getting out of the car and stabbing someone?
That was my point. Like, I saw the picture on X and I was like, that's like five lanes of traffic. How is this happening?
I don't know. And I, I took some notes on this story and then I don't know where they went. So
this reminds me of this Florida man story.
What Florida. Florida man arrested after shooting cyclists in the head with crossbow. Yeah. And I'm just wondering why you have a crossbow on you.
And surely he didn't have it within reach in the drive. Like he had to get out of the car, pull out of the trunk
and Florida man arrested after shooting. Well, maybe he was on the passenger side seat. Right. Is it possible?
It's possible his daily carries a crossbow.
I don't know. I mean, this is classic Florida man business though. Did you know that there is some Florida law that apparently other states have laws where you certain news doesn't get covered? And I don't know what it is. I'd have to look into it and maybe I'll look into it for tomorrow's show. But there's a reason why Florida man gets that like, reputation because there's certain arrests and certain things that in Florida people are allowed to cover. I don't know why that is. I have to look into it. But Florida man began because we have, basically, we have more access to information than other states. I think it, I, I think that's the reason. And it's not that Florida people are just crazy. What do you think? Do you think that people in Florida are crazier people? When it's hotter out, people do get more agitated?
Yeah, I think there's a little bit of. It's a Florida thing.
Do you also believe that on a full moon people go crazy?
I can't say that. That's one of my true beliefs.
People are impacted by the moon phases and things like that.
Yeah, werewolves.
Well, think about it. If the moon and gravity and all of this can impact the water, can it impact us? Sure.
When Mars is in Gatorade. I'm going to be honest.
People agree with me in the chat. I knew you got. I knew you guys would agree. I knew you guys would agree with me in the chat. I knew it. This isn't even a conspiracy theory. This is science. Trust the science. All right, let's get into tinfoil time because I've been talking about this Hollywood replacement theory for a little bit and it started, you know, it started a few years ago. Really? I should wait to put my tinfoil hat on after you put it on me and then I can put my own on. Note for ne mental note for next time. Or in the early 2000s, there was a Hollywood replacement clone type conspiracy theory that Avril Lavigne, super hot pop star, like emo punk girl, very popular, was replaced by a clone named Melissa. And Avril Lavigne has since come out and said, you know, that's ridiculous. It's still me. Blah, blah, blah, I didn't die. It's still me, okay? But these kinds of theories come back up all the time. And I just covered one recently with Selena Gomez. And the question is, is it plastic surgery? Is it a totally different person with a new face shape, new body shape, eye shape, teeth, voice? It's up for debate. Again, Selena Gomez has said, this is just. It's funny. And even Avril Lavigne said, of all the conspiracy theories that can be brought up about you, you being cloned is really pretty benign. Like, it's just funny. But then I saw this video about Hollywood's obsession with twins, and it got me thinking about, are they really replacing people with clones? Or is Hollywood targeting people with twins and siblings that look very much like them so that they can kind of switch on and off in. In certain ways? Because, you know, I don't know, it just kind of makes you think. Because I know that they use babies. They use twins in Hollywood for babies. Because on set, when you have a baby on set, it's good to switch them on and off because if one's crying, the other one's not. One's feeding. What? It's like they use twins even older than baby.
Like Charlie from Good Luck. Charlie is two actors, right?
And the. Well, I guess it's different when they're playing different characters because Dylan and Cole Sprouse played different characters. But it is interesting that they use twins to play one character. And it's interesting that they used. Remember the Parent Trap? They use Lindsay Lohan, but she played both twins. They actually didn't use a twin for her unless she's a twin. And we don't know about it. I don't know. But here's the video on the twin theory. Watch. A great grandfather, according to my father, was Walt Disney.
Guest or caller
His twin sister, who he had children with, who I am descended from, was named Minnie, had me separated from my mother and twin brother. My twin brother was raised on the Disney Channel.
Haley Carania
That was painful for me.
Guest or caller
My father and stepmother had a baby girl in 1991 who was raised by another family. 1998, they assigned me her birth date on my birth certificate, which they waited 10 years to file, claiming my stepmother was my biological mother.
Haley Carania
They're not the only child twins. Most of us are separated.
Guest or caller
What they do is they take one of the twins, make them a child star, and watch the other hone their cross independently so they can rise to reunite with them.
Haley Carania
And it works because going through that
Guest or caller
trauma together, no one else can understand it.
Haley Carania
And you and I are like sisters. Sister, sisters. Halle. We're like twins. It is interesting to think about how many celebrities do have lookalikes. Like, people talk about celebrity lookalikes, and it's just us regular people who have a celebrity lookalike. But there are so many Hollywood actors and actresses that already have a doppelganger that's also famous. And it does make you think, like, are they related? And was this all part of the plan? I don't know. Am I going crazy? Someone. Someone in the chat said, I'm lost. Could you start over? And someone else said, I need a drink. Listen, if my show is still at 6pm I would absolutely love to have a drink, even though I can't until March 17th. But yeah, like, getting into this stuff drunk would be way more fun. But anyway, let's get into Jim Carrey because he turned heads at the 51st Caesar Awards. He was in Paris, and he received an honor for his contribution to the world of film. He even gave. And he gave an acceptance speech in French, but that's not what had everyone talking. He delivered, you know, this touching speech, but then everyone was focused on what he looked like. And Jim Carrey has a very distinct face. Of course, he can contort it in different ways, which he has displayed throughout his acting career. And he's very talented, but you can't change your eye color. And that is what people. It's not just his face looking different. I mean, I. I mean, I guess you can change your eye color, but I don't know if it looks natural. Anyway, watch this or look.
Did you notice Jim Carrey's blue eyes? Nobody realized that the person accepting the award at the 51st Cesar Awards was actually Jim Carrey's body double. First, Jim Carrey's eyes have always been a deep brown, especially during the the Mask and the Truman show era. Those eyes carried a signature brown glow, lively and full of vitality. However, the person receiving the award had blue eyes appearing almost unnaturally transparent under the bright stage lights. Second, anyone familiar with Jim Carrey knows that in recent years, he has gradually distanced himself from mainstream Hollywood social media events and has publicly expressed his detachment from fame and celebrity culture. In contrast, the award recipient was very Outgoing on stage, interacting frequently with the new face.
This is him on the red carpet. People in the chat are saying colored contacts. You can see contacts. Like when people are wearing contacts, you can tell. And I don't think that Jim Carrey, I'm using air quotes. I don't think that Jim Carrey was wearing contacts. You can see the line around, around them. So I don't know. But this is his new face.
You know, I wrote it and I.
And voice for that matter.
And I practiced it like crazy. But, you know, it's. Then I watched everybody like talking a thousand miles an hour up there receiving their awards. And. And I was like, I'm dead.
But.
And I made mistakes and I was.
I don't know. Also, people are in the chat are saying that lights can change the color. Yeah, of course they can. Like, I feel like in some lights, like my eyes look darker and then in some they look lighter. That can be the case. But don't you think that in Jim Carrey's entire career he would have been under bright lights? And we've never seen them this bright before. It just seems odd. And then people are in the chat are saying, plastic surgery. Not him. For sure. That's not him. Looks nothing like him. Not him. Not him. Not him. Not him. Totally not him. That's not him. Thank you, guys. Not him. The voice. Thank you. Thank you. Then he said this, which was really weird. He said, my favorite funny face is the one I'm wearing.
Funny face is the one I'm wearing right now. I'm dead.
When has Jim Carrey ever not made people laugh? Those reporters were silent. What the heck? My favorite funny face. My favorite funny face is the one I'm wearing right now. And you could argue that Jim Carrey has worn lots of different funny faces in his career just because he's an actor. And he's certainly not a stranger to prosthetics. He's worn prosthetics throughout his career and special effects makeup in the mask. But Grinch, etc, actors can change their voices. But would he be doing this as some kind of a bit? If this is Jim Carrey or has something changed with Jim Carrey and in years past he's been kind of like, I don't want to say conspiratorial, but he's been kind of like, I don't know. Listen to this. He's saying some weird existential type things in this interview. He said, we don't matter. This is a weird interview. The first time I've run in To Jim Carrey. Hey, tell me, is it true you're wandering the streets? You need a date to the party? What's up?
No, I'm doing just fine. I just. You know, there's no meaning to any of this, so I. I wanted to find the most meaningless thing that I could come to and join, and here I am. You got to admit, it's completely meaningless.
Well, they say they're celebrating icons inside.
Celebrating icons? Boy, that is just the absolute lowest aiming, you know, possibility that we could come up with. It's like icons. What, do you. Do you believe in icons? I don't believe in personalities. I don't believe that you exist. But there is a wonderful fragrance in the air. Yeah. No, I. I don't believe in icons. I don't believe in personalities. I believe that peace lies beyond personality, beyond invention, in disguise, beyond the red S that you wear on your chest that makes bullets bounce off. I believe that it's deeper than that. I believe we're a field of energy dancing for itself, and I don't care.
But, Jim, you got really dressed up for the occasion. You look good. No, I didn't dress up.
I didn't get dressed up.
Who did?
There is no me.
There's no you. No, we're not here. This is a dream.
Just things happening. And there are clusters of tetrahedrons moving around together.
Okay, so what's happening in our world right now? Because there is a lot of news that actually is relevant. That's not. Someone said his drugs are weird.
It's not our world.
None of this is real.
Nope.
So you're just passing. We don't matter.
We don't matter.
Oh, wow.
This is the good news.
So nothing is real. He's not real. You're not real. Nothing is real. Then in another interview, he started calling out the government. Watch this.
I don't exist. So they're all characters that I played, including Jim Carrey, including Joel Barish, including any of those things. They're all characters. Jim Carrey was a less intentional character because I thought I was just building everyone.
Just look at how brown his eyes are, by the way. He's under bright lights.
I played the guy that was free from concern so that people who watched me would be free from concern.
Okay, so he's kind of mentioning here that again, along the same lines of, he's not real. He didn't exist. Jim Carrey doesn't even exist. Jim Carrey is a role that he is playing. And then in 2022, Jim Carrey essentially Teased that he is retiring. He's not going to do anything else. He's done. Watch this, right?
Yeah. What is it? Come on, Jimmy. Seriously. The time is up. People are hip to this kind of stuff. I'm here tonight to blow the lid off it, to be the whistleblower. I'm sick and tired of the secrets and the lies. It is the secret symbol of the luminutti and you're a part of it. And it is the all mocking tongue.
Oh, I like it.
It's a symbol of the all mocking tongue and I'm sick of it. I want everybody to be in on the joke, man. You know what I mean? For years now, talk show hosts, people on television, people in sitcoms have been hired by the government to throw you off the track, to distract you, to make you laugh and stuff like that. Make you happy and docile so you don't know what's really going on. You know, when they get out there in the woods in a circle, naked and they decide these things and you know, and look at them. Look at him trying to. It's hilarious. Hilarious.
And so think about it. In 2022, he was calling out the government, he was calling out the Illuminati, he's calling out people in Hollywood for being part of this club and things like that. And now it's 2026. Is it possible that something happened to Jim Carrey between 2022 and 2026 and he was taken out and then, you know, he had already said that he was retiring and maybe he didn't retire. Maybe he was done with Hollywood and I don't know, maybe he was speaking out too much and maybe something happened to him. I don't know. Then it comes time for this event in Paris. They want to honor Jim Carrey, his amazing acting career, comedy career, et cetera. And he doesn't exist, but they can't admit that. So someone has to dress up as him. And it seems like we have an answer. So Alexis Stone is a drag queen and also a special effects makeup artist who has made a career out of essentially making fake skin masks of people in Hollywood. And he wears them and he dresses up as them. So watch this.
The guest bathroom always makes people smile. We have Madonna, Meryl Streep, a very sad looking Lana Del Rey.
This is the work of transformative makeup artist Elliot Rentz, better known as Alexis Stone or any number of the hundreds of celebrities he's impersonated.
I think there was 250 we did before we moved on to the 2.0 version of these transformations. People have an idea that we sort of go to a Halloween shop and we buy these things over the counter. But everything is handmade and takes decades of experience working with a team.
He takes the discipline, discipline of movie makeup and prosthetics into the real world, which is amazing. This is incredible. Although he's perhaps best known for his ongoing partnership with Balenciaga's creative director, known only as Demna, whose couture show will be his last collection for the brand at his home and studio in Scotland. Rentz showed us what goes into his shape shifting practice. So they even say it, he's a shapeshifter. So is it possible that Alexis Stone made himself, turned himself into Jim Carrey on the red carpet? Or did he make the face for someone else who pretended to be Jim Carrey on the red carpet? And it turns out that he did post on Instagram saying, Alexis Stone as Jim Carrey in Paris. I don't know. And then that's apparently the face that he used. But I don't know. I don't know if I believe it. I don't think. I don't know. Like, someone in the, in the comments says, we demand proof of Jim Carrey. And someone else said, only because they got caught. Like, I think that this is.
His face looked really stiff in those interviews though. You know, for somebody that's like known for contorting his face, he was very stiff, right?
So then it begs the question, did he just get filler and Botox and that's why his face looks stiff and, and puffy. But why would someone like Jim Carrey do that? He doesn't strike me as that kind of guy that's gonna go freeze his face with Botox. His. The way that he contorts his face is like part of his personality. Like, I don't think that he would stop that for the sake of vanity or like looking old.
He'd be late to the game, that's for sure.
It just seems odd. Unless he came out of retirement to accept this award and said, oh, I'm looking really old now. Let me. I'm out. I'm retired. So I'm not. I don't need my face to contort anymore. I'm just going to look like a freak of nature and go accept this award. I don't know, guys, what do you all think in the chat? Because someone said, oh, that's you in the chat.
This is so wild. Jasmine.
Oh, is Jasmine.
All I know is if you're a red Carpet reporter. When they say, hey, Jim Carrey's walking up, the sigh you have to make right before you have to ask that man a question.
I know, because you just don't know what you're going to get. And honestly, yeah, people in the chat are saying, not him. And I. I don't know. Like, I really. I want to have a solid answer, but I don't know. Is it Jim Carrey with Botox and filler, or was he replaced? I can't get behind the voice changing, though. And Selena Gomez's voice changed, too, which is so strange. Your voice doesn't change. It changes as you get older. Like, you can tell, but not to that point and not dramatically. Like, it changes over years. But Selena Gomez is like, Whoa, you're. You're 33 years old and you. Your voice sounds different than it's always sounded. Like my voice sounds different than it sounded when I was 10 years old, but no one would be like, whoa, her voice sounds different. Same as Jim Carrey. We saw all of those former interviews from 2022 and in years past, he sounds like Jim Carrey, and then all of a sudden he looks different and sounds different. That, to me, is weird. Someone else said his nose is different. Someone else brought up the great point. They did. Joe Biden. Why not Jim Carrey? And a lot of these people, I think the world is a stage and they try to see what they can get away with fooling us on. I really do. I think that they. They do certain things to be, like, how fast will it take them to forget this? Like. Like they'll be outraged for a moment and then they'll get over it. And I think with the news cycle moving as fast as it does and our attention spans getting shorter and shorter, the more that they can get away with. All right, well, we're just going to leave the show on this very scary conspiratorial note. But wherever Jim Carrey is, I hope that he is doing well. And if that is just botox and filler, baby, get it dissolved because you'll look crazy. Someone said, I have an open mind, but I don't know. And honestly, that's where we're going to leave the show because, yeah, my mind is open, but anything is possible and we probably will never know the truth. So, again, Jim Carrey, best of luck to you. Thanks for watching the show. Follow me on social media aycaronia, and I'll see you right back here tomorrow.

Host: Hayley Caronia
Date: March 2, 2026
In this episode, Hayley Caronia delivers a characteristically sharp and unapologetically conservative take on recent breaking news: the death of Iran’s Supreme Leader following a joint U.S.-Israeli military operation (Operation Epic Fury), reactions to the event both at home and abroad, and its possible connection to a mass shooting in Austin, Texas. She moves on to discuss the radicalization of young Americans on college campuses, her overarching concerns about immigration and national security, and wraps up with a “tinfoil hat” segment exploring conspiracy theories about Hollywood, particularly focusing on Jim Carrey’s possible replacement.

Background:
Jim Carrey at the 51st Cesar Awards in Paris:
Conclusion:
This episode delivers Hayley’s signature blend of righteous indignation, conservative common sense, and cultural skepticism. Whether unpacking foreign policy, bitterly denouncing left-wing media bias, reflecting on immigration and national security failures, or skewering bizarre Hollywood rumors, Hayley keeps listeners both informed and entertained—and leaves them wondering just how deep the rabbit hole goes.
