TikTok Woman / Interviewee

Haley Carania Rose
All right. Former mayor of South Bend and former Transportation secretary Pete Buddha Judge and his family were a target of a CPS sort of swatting event over the weekend. This is the headline. Pete Buddha Judge says he was separated from his children Peter in swatting attack. And Mayor Pete wrote on substack about what happened after it all went down. So again, this is from his point of view and he claims that his four year old twins were at summer camp when authorities knocked on his door and asked to speak with him. And this is what he wrote in that substack article. Quote, the offer officer explained what the allegation actually was. An anonymous caller had contacted cps. The caller said that he had spoken to a woman who claimed to have met me at a conference several years ago in Alabama where she said I told her that I had committed unspeakable violent crimes. And the caller believed my children were still at risk. So I know some people think that this is a conspiracy theory, that maybe there was something going on with CPS and whatever. I'm of the camp that you know how I feel about conspiracy theories. I love a conspiracy theory, but not everything is one, right? So we, we've got to take things with, well, you know, at face value. This is what we know. And this doesn't really pass the smell test for me, not for the reasons that you might think. But a guy spoke to a woman who claimed to have talked to Mayor Pete years ago. And then Mayor Pete divulged these like deepest, darkest secrets that he was committing unspeakable violent crimes to this random woman. And then that random woman told a guy years later and then that guy called cps. Like that just doesn't make sense to me. And if people to judge had committed unspeakable violent crimes, would he tell a random stranger? If I was a violent criminal, I probably wouldn't want to run for political office or be in the public eye or a career that essentially forces all of your skeletons out of the closet. But this is back to what Mayor Pete said. Quote, that was all. The officer had a couple obvious questions. He asked if I had been to the town where the woman claimed she had met me. I have not. Now I don't know what town in Alabama they're talking about, so I can't independently confirm that. But cps, based on this CPS call, they said that this Alabama conversation happened years ago. And Mayor Pete has been to Alabama on the campaign trail and even after leaving public office, most recently for a conference in the spring. But I don't think it was the conference that happened in the spring because the woman said that this happened years ago. Again, just going through the facts here, but doesn't seem to be adding up. So the CPS worker and authorities needed to interview everyone separately, including the children. So Pete and his husband Chasten were interviewed and so were the kids. And during this process, according to the authorities and according to Mayor Pete's account of what happened, the kids needed to be separated from their parents, which makes sense because, you know, you don't want them to be influenced by their parents or whatever. So you separate the kids and the parents. What is odd to me is that they had to separate the parents for like 24 hours. So the kids went to go stay with their grandparents overnight during this interview process. Seems to me, and again, I'm not an expert, but seems like if you wanted to interview the kids and the parents separately, you could do that in the home. You could separate the kids and interview them in the bedroom and then the parents over there. But whatever. Police seem to think that this was a false alarm and politically motivated. The family was will not be prosecuted for anything. And according to Pete, the authorities found nothing abnormal. They went and they searched the house, the kids, bedrooms, etc, didn't find anything. And Pete wrote about what this swatting experience was like for him and his family. He thanked the CPS professional, the police officer, the forensic interviewers, they said that the work that they do is admirable. And he added this quote, when a serious allegation is made, they respond. But in this case, their time and resources were wasted in a cruel, political motivated hoax. Hoax that harmed our family. And that is the real tragedy here. Thankfully, CPS didn't find anything of note in the Buttigieg household. But with any call or hoax that involves authorities responding quickly, it is a gross waste of law enforcement resources. We saw this with Jussie Smollett. Of course, this is like the high profile one that wasn't there. A woman in Alabama, I believe it was in Alabama, and she reported herself missing. And she was missing, but she wasn't missing at all. It's like, are these people okay in the head? No. Anyone who wastes law enforcement time with a false claim is a complete loser. And I'm not using a worse word like loser is being gracious. They're disgusting. And with so many children who are actually at risk or in dangerous situations, you know, CPS certainly doesn't have to be showing up for no reason. So that pisses me off. Another thing that pisses me off is that kids were involved in this. I don't know what kinds of violent crimes Pete was accused of. And I'm glad that CPS did their due diligence. Right? Like, I'm glad that if there is a. Not that the, you know, report really made too much sense, like this happened years ago, but the kids are still at risk. Like, how, how would the person know that? But I'm glad that CPS showed up, because you never know. And I'm glad that they searched the house, because you never know. And I hope that the person who made the call really believed that there was something truly wrong. And I, I, I hope that that's the case. Right? I hope that this person wasn't genuinely just wasting CPS's time, that they really did believe that there was something to be investigated. But I also worry about the kids because they're four years old. I hope that they don't remember much of this. But seeing police officers show up at your house and then having to stay with your grandparents and being separated from their family, I mean, I'm thinking about this from a kid's perspective, that could be very scary. And Pete was saying in his substack article that the police officers, you know, they're professionals, right? They know how to deal with kids in these delicate situations, but they were showing the kids the police cars and sort of like showing them around and so that they weren't super scared. But this could be very scary. Kids don't like being separated from their parents. Parents don't like being separated from their kids. Certainly, if there was some kind of abuse going on and the kids weren't safe, then by all means separate them, of course. But the fact that the authorities believe this was a baseless claim is disheartening. And I don't want to believe that someone on our side of the political aisle would do something like that. But there are sick and twisted people everywhere. Maybe they called truly believing what they had heard and they thought they were doing the right thing, but it caused this mess. And Mayor Pete said that this was, quote, the ugliest thing that has happened to me since my career in service began. And he's been to war, and he's also, he's, I'm sure he's gotten death threats and things because I've gotten death threats and rape threats and all this stuff in my dm. So if I'm getting that, surely people who are much more well known are getting that. But what I want to talk about is how I saw a bunch of Conservatives, some who have been attacked or swatted themselves, come to the defense of people to judge saying, yes, this is a crime and it is always wrong. But it is notable that when this crime happens to conservatives, Democrats very rarely have the decency to say, wow, I'm so sorry this happened to you. And to be fair, Senator Chuck Schumer introduced anti swatting legislation and then after Marjorie Taylor Greene was swatted, Hakeem Jeffries had come out saying, swatting is wrong on both sides of the aisle, which is true. But when it happens to a conservative, you don't have to say it's wrong on both sides. That's self explanatory. You can just say, I'm sorry that happened to her, it shouldn't have happened. It's sort of like how when Charlie Kirk was assassinated and people would preface their well wishes by saying, I didn't agree with him, but I didn't personally like him. But you don't have to say that. You can just say that this was a tragedy, because it is, and you can leave out the fluff. So I will say point blank that I'm sorry this happened to Pete Buttigieg and his family. They don't deserve that. Nobody does. So long as this is a false flag like authorities are saying, they do not deserve this. But if you believe that swatting someone is wrong or calling it a false report is wrong, which I do, I do believe that, and everyone should, then you must believe that it is wrong when it happens to anyone, regardless of political party or affiliation or anything else. And I just saw this discourse online this weekend and I saw so many nice comments from conservatives and I thought, wow, I'm always so proud to of my fellow conservatives, I'm always so proud of them for being so kind and respectful when conservatives never get the same decency in return. And I don't expect much out of the left, I don't expect people who are just joking about Charlie Kirk's assassination or the people who have champagne chilling in their fridge for the day that Trump dies. I don't expect those people to be kind or extend any grace across the aisle. But I am just grateful every day that I am on the right side. And I don't think you should have to personally go through something to care about it. But I do hope that this experience opened Pete's mind to how perverse political violence has gotten in this country. I. I'm not sure how Charlie Kirk's assassination and the attempts on Trump's life wouldn't have woken everybody up by now. But I hope that the next time something like this happens to a conservative, we'll see him speak out. I won't hold my breath. But we can hope. In other Democrat news, to commemorate. Commemorate New York City's public pool season, Mayor Mamdani did this.
Mayor Mamdani
Watch.
Paula Pan
Two, one drop into the pool.
Haley Carania Rose
There's Mayor Bondani swimming in the pool. Swimming in his suit. A suit. Okay, so we're. We're about to have a fight. Because I can. I hope you know, I can hear your conversations that you have during the show. So anyway, I can. And so you might all be surprised by this. I don't mind this. I don't mind this at all.
Mayor Mamdani
Why?
Haley Carania Rose
Because I wouldn't have wanted to see him in a bathing suit. Is that a fair take? I would not. I would rather see Mayor Mamdani or any politician jump into a pool in a suit than in a bathing suit.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Shockingly, we're on the same side. I think it's so charming, so funny.
Haley Carania Rose
I think the kids probably got a kick out of it. And for that reason, I don't mind. Yes, it's a photo op. He's a politician. I don't know why anyone would be shocked that a politician did something to look good or cool or to get people talking. Of all the things I can get mad at Mayor Mamdani for, that's not going to be one of them.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
What's the alternative?
Haley Carania Rose
And we are going to get into some of the reasons why I hate Mayor Mamdani today. But jumping in the pool in a suit, not one of them.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Here's the thing. I am in the mindset of. It's either the suit, swimsuit with a T shirt on, or full topless Maramondani.
Haley Carania Rose
Either way, we're not going to like it. And that's the thing. If he jumped in, in a bathing suit, conservatives would come and be like, ooh, I hate this. I hate him. Right? Because we don't like him politically. I can separate the fact I can separate someone's politics from, you know, if I saw him in a bathing suit, people would say, don't like it. If he was in a shirt, people would make fun of him. People in a suit, people are going to make fun of him regardless because they don't like him.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
The suit, the suits thing. He wears the jersey over the suit. He wears the suit everywhere. It's fun.
Haley Carania Rose
I just. This is the thing. Of all the things I can hate him for, there are so many. I'm going to give him this one. But when it comes to the affordability crisis, which is one of the reasons why Mayor Mamdani was elected, he just delivered a win for some of his voters. Mayor Mamdani appointed most of New York City's rent guidelines board and they just approved a historic rent freeze for about 1 million rent stabilized apartments. And let me just say, as a New York City former resident, if you can get your hands on a rent stabilized apartment in New York City, you have hit the jackpot. Normally these kinds of apartments, they're getting handed down. If you know someone who has a rent stabilized apartment and they're moving out, like people want to take over your lease from you. I never knew anyone in New York City with a rent stabilized apartment. Not one. Which means the landlord can't raise your rent that much. If you live in a regular market value apartment, you can have your rent raised by, you know, 500 extra bucks a month or a thousand extra bucks a year, whatever it is. And I've had this to friends where they have had to move based on what their landlord wants to charge to have them resign. That's showbiz, baby. And then in New York City, you have two weeks to find your next apartment. It's a very stressful, very, very stressful situation. So the rent guidelines board voted that new one or two year leases signed in rent stabilized apartments between October 1st and September 30th will have zero increase. And this was almost unanimous. The vote was seven to one. And you can imagine that people in these apartments are rejoicing. Landlords, on the other hand, are not. Because rent increases normally, aside from crazy circumstances, are supposed to cover upkeep and maintenance requests. And landlords are saying that without hiking rent prices, they're not going to be able to make enough revenue to keep up with building damages and things like that. As it is, some of these apartments, especially the rent stabilized ones, are older. They need a lot of upkeep. And Spencer Pratt weighing in is warning people, they are not freezing your rent. They are freezing your housing provider's income while their expenses keep increasing. The point isn't to make your housing affordable. It's to make providing houses financially inviable so governments can seize the unmanageable properties. Our lack of financial literacy is going to destroy us. Agreed. This is exactly what's happening. But this girl doesn't care. She wants this to happen. She wants Mamdani to own everything.
Tenant Advocate / Renter
Listen, the landlord simps are so exhausting complaining about the rent freeze in New York City. They're like, oh, won't Someone please think of the landlords. The landlords aren't going to be able to do maintenance. You're going to be upset when your boiler's broken and they can't afford to fix it. Okay, well, I'm going to sue their ass if the boiler's broken and they can't afford to. To fix it, and then Saramadani is going to take the building, and then who's going to be winning? Still me. The tenant. Okay. Because if a landlord cannot maintain a property to the basic legal standard, then the tenants can get a rent reduction, a cash settlement. They don't deserve to continue making money off of people if they're not even going to maintain the apartments. So, like, why are you defending, defending landlords that would keep people in squalid apartments that need basic repairs. Why are you defending those people? They don't deserve to still be property owners and still make money off of those tenants. They're not entitled to a profit like
Co-host or Guest Commentator
they're. They're not entitled to a profit, but I am entitled to the apartment.
Haley Carania Rose
Yes, I am entitled to live in. They don't have to make a profit, but I'm allowed to live there. Yep. It's pretty amazing how the rhetoric from the renters is that landlords are bad. Without them, they would have no roof over their heads. Renters don't have enough money to own their own place. So the hatred is just coming off as jealousy. Landlords don't deserve to be property owners if they can't keep up with maintenance is what she said. Deserve is the key word there. That comes up a lot when lefties are talking deserve versus earn. They get the deserve part. They don't really understand the earn part. Right. Landlords become property owners because they earned enough capital to do so. And I'm not arguing that landlords should let their buildings fall into disrepair. And if they do, they can be held responsible for that. But the left also hates anyone who makes more money than them or is more successful. Them. They hate Jeff Bezos. They hate Taylor Swift. They hate CEO so much they shoot them in the back in broad daylight. They hate anyone who makes more money than them and they can't tell that person how to spend it. That's what they're used to. They're used to. And they want the government to have all the power so that they can seemingly tell them how to spend it, which isn't how that works. But they, you know, being not entitled, they're not entitled to a profit. That's crazy. It's A crazy thing to say. Like, what if her boss told her you're not entitled to your profit? She wouldn't like that too much.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
She acts like people get these apartments and then their landlord locks. Granted, you sign the lease, so you are kind of locked in in a way for sure. But you can leave.
Haley Carania Rose
You sign a contract again, if you don't want to pay the landlord, go buy your own property then. And then you don't have to pay a landlord. You can own it. And I like how she thinks that if Zoran Mamdani owns her apartment, if the government owns and runs her apartment, that it'll run smoother than if a landlord was going to do it. Absolutely retarded.
Conservative Commentator
We all knew this was coming, but New York fell straight to anarchy and like a dictatorship, way faster than we thought it was going to.
Haley Carania Rose
No, but the voters are so dumb. They're like, they want that to happen. They want the government to own their apartment building.
Conservative Commentator
It's unbelievable. Absolutely.
Haley Carania Rose
If they think the disrepair is bad. Now, just imagine when the government gets
Conservative Commentator
a guy named Zoron, owns all of the property in New York City.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
My goodness, the amount of things the government has run poorly in my life. I'm golden. We're good. We'll pass.
Haley Carania Rose
Anyone who goes to the dmv, especially in New York. I've been to the DMV in New York. It takes eight hours to get whatever you need done. Done. I will say DMV in a red state, different situation, much smoother.
Conservative Commentator
If I'm a landlord in New York, I'm. I'm removing the resident portal from the mobile app and making all. All maintenance requests have to be done in person with like a ticketed system in the lobby. Like the dmv.
Tenant Advocate / Renter
Yeah.
Haley Carania Rose
And they have to wait eight hours exactly. Oh my gosh. So stupid. Best of all, this next girl, she needs to find a new apartment to sublet. And throughout her tears, she finds it in her to praise Zora Nomdani.
Tenant Advocate / Renter
Listen to this.
TikTok Woman / Interviewee
On the brink of losing my housing and I don't know what to do anymore. Over a month ago, my roommate informed me she didn't want to resign with me for very stupid reasons. I've made videos about it. She said that I could stay instead and that she would leave. And then like two weeks go by and she changes her mind. And I had to find out from the landlord that she was leaving again. And I was given 24 hours to find a new roommate or bring in a personal guarantor. And I wound up finding someone which was really great. I warned her up front that leave if this is too much. The drama has been stupid. She did wind up backing out and I reassured her. I was like, there are no hard feelings. I don't wish this stress on anyone. I'm now facing this final week by myself. I don't know what I'm gonna do. I may try to ask the landlord to just let me pay the entire month of July's rent to buy me time to find someone. Try to rush and find a new roommate. I don't know, dude. This has been agonizing. I've moved so many times the last year of living in New York. I'm on my fifth sublet now and I know the life that I signed up for by being a full time artist in New York City. Mamdani gave a speech after the Knicks one and I don't have like all the words memorized, but he was like, what is New York if not your back is up against the wall, your dream just out of reach, unsure how you'll make your next rent payment, and looking at those 99.6% odds that are against you and smiling because in that 0.4% New Yorkers find a way. You know, it's interesting when my new roommate, I feel like two weeks ago me would have like broken down in tears, but I think I was like, I was expecting it. I wasn't going to be surprised. But also, you've just been surrendering. I can't carry it anymore. This is too much for, for me don't have control of this. I don't have control over the landlords being really shitty or raising the rent without telling me until like Friday. I have no safety net. I don't have family that I can rely on financially. I'm not saying that to garner sympathy either. I'm stating the facts of where I'm at and that my back is literally up against a wall right now. But one thing that I know for sure is I love New York and I belong here and I'm not going anywhere. I want this to be a win for all of us because now I know so many of you are invested in this and I want so badly to get to the end of this and be surprised at like a miracle.
Haley Carania Rose
I will say her, her roommate posted a video being like, she's the worst roommate I've ever had.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
We were in here saying, I would
Haley Carania Rose
love to know hear the roommate side of it.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Yeah, what crazy stuff she's doing.
Haley Carania Rose
Also when she said, this is my fifth Sublet this year. You have to wonder what is wrong with you. Also, why not? Why sublet? Why not just sign? Why not find a roommate and sign a lease?
Conservative Commentator
She getting kicked out of the sub.
Haley Carania Rose
That's what I'm thinking is happening, so. And maybe it's because she can't pay the rent on her artist salary. And I would say quit crying on TikTok and go work.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
I was telling Justin I I used to do gig work.
Haley Carania Rose
I was music, did music paycheck to paycheck.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
It was really fun and I was able to meet rent. I was very blessed to be able to do it.
Haley Carania Rose
But back against the wall.
Conservative Commentator
You were not in New York City.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Yeah, I wasn't in New York City. Hear me out. But the second I like needed more money, I just got a job. Got a job. You know, it was the end of an era.
Haley Carania Rose
That's tough you got to do.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Hung up the Jordans.
Haley Carania Rose
My favorite part of the video though, because this has nothing to do with the rent freezing or anything like that, but this is like a completely self inflicted housing issue and, and she's crying, quoting Zoran Mamdani, like don't worry girl, Zoran is here to help you. Just wait right there. Just keep waiting. He's coming to help you. Except he's never going to help people like that. Like this is a self inflicted issue completely.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
He's freezing people. Don't like her not freezing your roommates brains when you do crazy stuff.
Haley Carania Rose
Exactly. More liberal lunacy this time in California. This video of state Senator Scott Weiner being ambushed at a trans march is quite funny. The post on X says this Scott Weiner showed up to the trans march and for the first time we kicked his ass out. It's sad because while he's written some good legislation for queers, he's ultimately a genocidal supporting center right shill trigger warning broken man walking away. Defeated vote Connie Calling Scott Weiner a center right shill is amazing. It's so out of touch. He's nowhere near the center. He's definitely nowhere near the right. But the California progressives have gone so far to the left that they're leaving Scott in the dust. And Scott has backed some pretty darn progressive legislation, some of which is downright deranged. Like Senate Bill 145 passed in 2019 which adjusted the rules for California sex offender registry to for certain consensual same sex acts between minors. This is to reduce disparity with heterosexual cases. So he believes that if you are gay you should be able to screw around with minors. And then he signed on to Senate Bill 239, which decriminalized the intentional nondisclosure of HIV status in certain consensual situations to reduce stigma. And if you are purposefully not disclosing the fact that you have HIV with someone you are in a relationship with, let me go ahead and attach a stigma to you. You're a selfish asshole and it should be a felony, not a misdemeanor. But of course, he has backed bills protecting transgender youth and adults. You know, California, he wants to make it a sanctuary state for not just illegals, but also for trans children. And he also signed on to bills limiting law enforcement, you know, forcing ICE agents to wear masks and things like that. He also wants to decriminalize psychedelics. He is no stranger to Pride events. He even goes wearing leather bondage. This is an elected official. This is him wearing a leather vest. You know, he's wearing these. He's wearing a rainbow Kamala shirt. He's posing with children at a Pride event. I mean, it's really quite something. And we used to have societal standards, but in California, I guess they do away with all of those. Here is Scott Weiner being harassed at this Pride event. He thinks again that the sex offender registry needs to be included so that minors can have sex with adults, especially if you're gay. And here's someone complimenting him on that legislation, and then things go south.
Scott Wiener Protester
Scott, I think your legislation on trans. On trans issues and, and your legislation specifically protecting queers on sex offender registry is fantastic. Like, I, I really applaud you for that, and I think you deserve to be here for that. But I think you're leg. I think your, your housing policy, and specifically your housing policy aligning with gimbies. And I think you're. You're policy. And I think your policy on the
Paula Pan
genocide in Gaza, I think your policy on the genocide in Gaza, it's terrible. I think you do not belong here. You do not belong here, Scott, anymore. It sucks because you've been wonderful. You've been wonderful for trans people. And you've been terrible. And you've been terrible. Terrible. You've been terrible. You've been terrible at Gaza. You do not belong here anymore, Scott. And it breaks my heart. It breaks my heart. It breaks my heart that someone who wrote good legislation for queers is so terrible on Gaza. Scott, do you have anything to say? Do you have anything to say about Gaza? How. How could you do this to San Francisco? How could someone like you do this to San Francisco, Scott. Say something. Redeem yourself. Do something. I want. I want to like the person who had such good legislation on trans rights. You're a piece of shit we fucking hate, Scott. I want to support someone who's so positive on trans rights. But you're a piece of shit on Gaza. How could you do that? How could you betray queers? How could you oppress people? You stopped being queer the moment you started supporting Israel, you piece of
Haley Carania Rose
the. This is the people following him. And then the. All of the people in the background. Like, this is a freak show. Quite literally a freak show. And the guy interviewing him in the beginning likes all of the queer legislation, loves all the queer legislation, loves the fact that he can screw around with minors, Loves that. Loves that you can give people HIV without telling them, Loves that. Then he really takes an issue with Scott Wiener's stance on the war on in Israel. And this is the Queers for Palestine crowd, which we always joke about how it's so contradictory because Muslims don't believe in homosexuality and Israel is one of the only countries in the Middle east that wouldn't throw their asses off of a building for being in a homosexual relationship. Of course, the gays use this same logic to hate on American Christians. But then they'll defend Muslims who believe the same thing, likely because it's a minority thing and minorities can do whatever they want in the eyes of the progressive left. But I have figured it out. The California Queers for Palestine, they support Islam because they both want to have sex with minors. That is. That is the link. Muslims believe in having sex with minors and so do the California Queers for Palestine. You might think this is so counterintuitive. Why would the queer support it? But this is what they have in common. And the mob mentality of the left is on full display in that video. The guy filming starts off calmly complimenting Scott about all this pro trans legislation and pro pedophile legislation that he loves so much. And then the guy filming, I think, wanted to have a constructive conversation about this other legislation that he has an issue with. And you see how quickly he gets mobbed, right? Agitators who have no desire to have a conversation completely derailed this and turned it into a spectacle. They start screaming at him. Then the guy filming has to start screaming to make himself be heard over their screams. So now everyone is just yelling unintelligible things about Israel at Scott and he's not answering. This is the left eating its own. Any attempt at having a conversation with someone you disagree with immediately turns aggressive. And I joke that the modern left is like the children's book. If you give a mouse a cookie because the mouth and the mouse in the story is never satisfied. He wants a cookie and then he wants a glass of milk and then he wants a napkin and then he wants a straw and then he wants a vacuum to clean up the crumbs. And then this is the American left. They're never satisfied. And Scott Wiener thinks that he has done his duty as a progressive. You know, he's backed some of the most wild legislation that will certainly do damage to California. And the voters are thrilled until he steps out of line on one issue and that is the conflict in Israel, Gaza. And people wonder why the progressive left Muslim candidates keep getting elected in blue states and cities. Duh. Their religion believes in raping children and they hate Israel. So it's a win win for the progressive left. And this is the look on Scott Weiner's face. He's so dejected, tired. He doesn't have a fight left in him. He's, he's already, he's got nothing left. He's pale, he looks sickly. He almost looks like he's on drugs, like he's dissociating. He's completely dissociating. And he realizes he will never be woke enough for the woke left. He would rather abandon his own identity and his own religion to appease the most progressive voters in California. And they hate Jews, but let's be real, they hate all religion. They don't believe, by the way, that your identity is anything concrete. It can change. So to please the left, you have to be this ever changing, obedient slave to the cancel culture mob. Whatever the current thing is, you must bow down, you must virtue signal. You take orders from whatever demons are possessing them. And he just realized that in that moment, he just realized that if he wants to keep his job in politics in California, he's just a shell of a man and a vessel for whatever evil ideology the left wants to push next. And this is the reality that has pushed many center left people closer to the right, including Bill Maher, who had Vice President JD Vance on his show. And here he is talking about how he may just vote for JD if he runs in 2028 because the left has abandoned him.
Bill Maher
Watch, this is where the Democratic Party is going to, where this democratic socialist, this obsession with Israel, with the Jew hating, with they don't believe in capitalism, no prisons. If this is where they're going. My vote is in play. Okay, I'd like to hear that. It actually always has been. I just, every year I don't make my decision by who has an R or a D. I actually always came to the conclusion that the Democrat was probably better. Sure. And voted for them.
TikTok Woman / Interviewee
Okay.
Bill Maher
And Trump can't run again. And he'd be a little too exciting for me anyway. So it's either going to be you or Rubio.
Haley Carania Rose
He basically just said there that he's not voting for a Democrat. Whoever the Democrat may be. He's saying it's going to be you or Rubio that he's deciding between, essentially. Because the Democrats have already left Bill Maher in the dust. And any voter like Bill Maher, anyone who says, well, let me think about this, let me look at the policies that they're running on. But if we learned anything from Kamala Harris's campaign in 2028, she 2024, she didn't run on anything. She didn't run on anything but coconut trees and brat summer and tik tok vibes. That's all she ran on. I think it was in the 11th hour that she put up a policy page on her website because towards the end of the campaign people were like, wait, you don't even have a policy? Like what are you even standing for other than abortion on demand? And then they threw up something on the, on the page.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Didn't they take it down immediately after too? Because it was a little out there.
Haley Carania Rose
I don't remember. But probably. But they had to come up with something. And she can't really run on her record as vice president. She did jack diddly squat except for like go to the border once and I don't even know. She was just ushering in more illegals.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Been to the border at some point.
Haley Carania Rose
She was like, I also haven't been to Europe. Remember when this was before she went to the border and she was border czar and they were like, why haven't you been there? And she was like, well, I also haven't been to Europe.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Sick. Okay, I miss her a little bit. Not her policies, but every time she spoke it was so fun.
Tenant Advocate / Renter
I know.
Haley Carania Rose
I don't really miss her.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Like a stand up comedian.
Haley Carania Rose
I don't really miss her. But it is funny to make fun of her and most Democrats. But I think this show today, everything that I've covered thus far proves why Bill Maher feels like he can't vote Democrat ever again. And someone in the chat just said, I don't believe Bill Maher. He will Never be Republican. I actually don't like that take. I mean, we need to welcome people into the fold who are willing to vote Republican. That's how we win elections. And especially with all of the leg up that Democrats have with mail in voting and illegals, I think we should welcome people who have been left in the dust by Democrat policies that are way too far left, 100%.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
We don't need their policy. But if you want to attach yourself to what we have in mind, it'd be great.
Haley Carania Rose
They've seen the light. Bill Maher is, I believe that Bill Maher is a Democrat, but he is a 90s Democrat. He is a centrist Democrat. He maybe leans a little to the left, but now he's realizing, oh, I'm normal. And when the party goes this far left and I'm still here, he's way closer to us than he is them. So I welcome that. I think he's seen the light and I think there are probably a lot of voters like him that are like, I, I don't want to vote for people that usher in illegals and free health care and pedophile bills and whatever else. I think it makes total sense. We have to play this next video. Andrew sent this to me on Twitter yesterday and we've got to talk about this. This is, it's all. It's an older video. Well, no, it's an older story, but a newer video. So back in 2023, two men entered a downtown St. Louis Starbucks in an armed robbery attempt. And new video shows that the robbers were assaulting the Starbucks employees, pushing one female employee to the ground, pistol whipping another in the head. And then two employees fought back. What happened next will shock you.
Starbucks Robbery Narrator
Watch being stopped by two Starbucks employees who were fired because of was a Sunday in December 2023. The middle of the afternoon, Michael Harris was working drive Thru.
Mayor Mamdani
We were just going about our normal day to Roberts walked in.
Starbucks Robbery Narrator
One suspect walks behind the counter and shoves a female worker to the ground.
Mayor Mamdani
I was scared, but also just calm at the moment because I was just like, whatever we could do to just get them out of here would be perfect.
Starbucks Robbery Narrator
The robbers demand money and strike Harris with a gun.
Mayor Mamdani
After that point, like when my vision went black, I was like, I'm about to get shot.
Starbucks Robbery Narrator
A customer in the drive thru sees what's happening and reverses her car.
Mayor Mamdani
It was definitely a life or death situation in my eyes.
Starbucks Robbery Narrator
Another worker also fired after this, saw a suspect lower his gun. So he shoved him and noticed the gun was fake.
Mayor Mamdani
The trigger Broke off when they hit him with it. My coworker announced that it was a fake gun, like, right as he got it off of them. And that's when we jumped and, like, started to fight them a little bit more.
Starbucks Robbery Narrator
But now in prison after robbery convictions, Harris says he got a call from corporate.
Mayor Mamdani
They said, this is Starbucks. We are terminating you effective immediately.
Starbucks Robbery Narrator
He hired attorney Ryan Krupp.
Haley Carania Rose
You have the right to self preservation. You have the right to make sure that you and your family are not going to be physically harmed, full stop.
Starbucks Robbery Narrator
Krupp says Starbucks response could lead to a future deadly outcome.
Haley Carania Rose
All it's going to do is dissuade people potentially from protecting their own lives when they may need it the most. And that is not a world that we can live. I agree that is not a world that we can live in, but that's the world that Starbucks wants their employees to live in. Starbucks said the two workers that decided to fight back did not adhere to the company policy of complying with demands and avoiding actions that could increase risk in high stress situations like this. Our priority is ensuring the safety of everyone in our stores. We were deeply disturbed by this frightening incident and are grateful that our partners and customers were not more seriously injured at the time. While we recognize how intense and unprecedented, unpredictable these moments can be, adherence to these protocols is essential to help protect both partners and customers. Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me? Starbucks is like, yeah, I don't know about this liability. I don't know if you should. So Starbucks essentially wants you to just sit there and get pistol whipped in the head and do nothing. Sit there, lay down, get pistol whipped and lay down and take it literally, lay down and take it. You're getting robbed and, yeah, you get robbed. And whatever happens to the customers, I guess, happens. They think that if you don't fight back, then everyone will be safer for it.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
They found out that gun was fake and the tides turned real quick.
Haley Carania Rose
Quick, real quick.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
All I'm going to say is those Starbucks workers opened a can of ass on those dudes.
Haley Carania Rose
It was crazy. But listen, if you think that that's a real gun, and why wouldn't you? You, if someone's poor, pointing a gun at you, you know, you don't assume that it's fake. You know, you assume, oh, shit, you know, your body goes into fight or flight. These guys fought like hell. Thank God they saw one of their female employees, co workers, get thrown to the ground like they stepped in. Okay, Imagine if they hadn't stepped in and they were like, sorry, it's against Starbucks policy. I'm just gonna let my, my female co worker get thrown to the ground and I'm just gonna get pistol whipped in the head and I'm just gonna sit here and sorry. Starbucks said I couldn't fight back.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
These crazy policies, I feel like, took a huge effect in 2020 when everybody's like, robbing everything. I mean, Lululemon has the same policy. Let him steal.
Haley Carania Rose
Well, that's. I, I told you when I worked at Abercrombie in college for like two weeks, they. I watched a girl steal 70 perfumes because I wasn't allowed to say anything. Okay, so I guess we're gonna get stolen from because I, I can't say anything.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Were you up in New York when everything was behind cages?
Haley Carania Rose
Yes.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
It's wild to go somewhere that has everything.
Haley Carania Rose
If I want deodorant, if I want body wash, I have to press a button and wait for someone to get it for me. In New York.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
It just, it's crazy. I would say that's the best part about being in South Florida. And when I moved here, I went to Walmart and they just had everything.
Haley Carania Rose
Yeah, you just grab it and put it in your cart. Imagine that.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
I didn't have to ring somebody up. It was awesome.
Haley Carania Rose
This is what Starbucks would have wanted. Someone made this with Grok and I thought it was funny. I lie here at the young age of 23 because Starbucks said I could not fight for my life. It's a barista with. He looks very sad. He's looking over his own grave. He's got his angel wings. I sure wonder what my kids would have been like. I hope my mom knows I loved her. This is what Starbucks would have wanted. Just sit there. Take it.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
How much cash does a Starbucks really have?
Haley Carania Rose
Do people even use cash at Starbucks?
Co-host or Guest Commentator
You have to download their app and then upload your money into their fake Starbucks money. And then it's a whole. Robbing a Starbucks feels very odd.
Haley Carania Rose
Yeah, Especially. You know, I just thought about that too. I mean, to your point, everything is
Co-host or Guest Commentator
cashless now, especially Starbucks is the most annoying because they, they like, demand that you're cashless.
Haley Carania Rose
Yeah. So there's probably 20 bucks in there. You could buy yourself two copies. You'd be, you'd be better off stealing people's mobile orders. That's worth more money than what's in the cash register. Just take the mobile orders.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
I'm team. I'm team. You try to rob a restaurant, you can fight back. And whoever. If you, if you win, you can have the money.
Haley Carania Rose
But steal two coffees, and that's worth more than what's in the cash register, so no doubt. All right, let's get into scrolling time.
Paula Pan
Hey, there.
Haley Carania Rose
I'm Paula Pan. I help people make the smartest money decisions possible. If you don't control your money, it controls you. You're not in control of your finances, and you have to look outside of
Social Media Safety Advocate
yourself to live the life that you want.
Haley Carania Rose
You're not in control of your life.
Social Media Safety Advocate
Like, what is it that you actually want? Money should follow the dreams and goals, because sometimes we make the dream and goal the money. And you've overworked yourself and you've exceeded
Haley Carania Rose
what you've needed for the actual thing you want.
Social Media Safety Advocate
Sometimes we forget, like, what's the actual thing you want?
Haley Carania Rose
Afford anything. Follow and listen on your favorite platform. All right, this is an Internet safety reminder from a little. She's a girl who's maybe a little too nosy, but this is good to. This is good to know that these people are out there. Watch.
Social Media Safety Advocate
Not proud of it. Woman enough to say it. Don't post a photo with a house in the background, even if it's just peeking in the background if you don't want me to find that address. Just deeply curious and nosy. I'm gonna find your address. I'm gonna find your purchase price for your house. I'm gonna find the deed to your house. I'm gonna see who the grantor was. Oh, is it a new build? Interesting. Who's your builder? Are they properly licensed? Is their contractor license limit? Are they a registered business in the state? Who is the property deeded to? Is it you? Is it you and your partner? Are you guys telling everybody you're engaged but you're secretly married because you own the property together in joint tenancy? Did they buy it? Did they buy it in trust? Is your name on it at all? I will find out. Just don't post it if you don't want me to know.
Haley Carania Rose
Just a reminder that this girl is out there. She's very nosy. There are people like her that have worse intentions. Do not post where you live, your address, a mailbox, even your neighbor's house behind you, picking up your kids from school, Anything. Do not post that. People will find out where you live.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
You ever, ever super sleuth somebody?
Haley Carania Rose
When my friends buy houses, I look up the Zillow immediately. Yeah, Especially my friends in New York, because I'm like, how did you find over a million dollars?
Co-host or Guest Commentator
You ever see the Geolocator guys who they can see like a single picture somewhere and then they click around to try to find exactly where it's at. Don't post stuff you don't want.
Haley Carania Rose
Don't post. Don't post anything that you don't want figured out because people will figure it out. This is why, like people ask me, I do the ask me anything questions on my Instagram like once a week and people are like, what car do you drive? Where do you live? What town do you live in? I'm like, are you guys okay? Do you think I'm that dumb? I'm not letting anyone know these things. Seriously. Just ridiculous. Okay, this next one is pretty crazy. This, this woman says the name Weight Watchers is inherently fat phobic and they'll always be fat phobic. If anyone needs to be afraid of how fat they're getting, it's her. She needs to be self fat phobic because if she doesn't lose weight, she's going to die. She needs to be fat phobic. Her life depends on it.
Social Media Safety Advocate
For real.
Haley Carania Rose
Also, what is inherently fat phobic about watching your weight? I guess to her, she thinks that any sort of diet culture is fat phobic, but really it's just.
Conservative Commentator
It implies the weight is bad.
Haley Carania Rose
It's health forward. This is a big woman. If you're listening and not watching, let me just tell you, she's bigger than you think she is. This is a big woman who says that Weight Watchers is inherently fat phobic. If anyone needs to be on Weight Watchers, it's her. Watching your weight is, is a. Okay. It's actually, it's good for you. I think everyone should watch their weight. Even people who are too thin need to watch their weight because that could go in the other way, other direction. Everyone's gotta watch their weight. What? You're just laughing.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
I had a buddy in college whose mom did Weight Watchers and so he had access to the portal, so he used Weight Watchers to track his macros. Kind of before macro tracking was a thing. This was know 10 years ago, I
Haley Carania Rose
did weight watchers in like 8th grade with my friend.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Weight Watchers used to be like the thing to do to lose weight. Like there's no. That's not fat.
Haley Carania Rose
It's not bad.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
So many people.
Haley Carania Rose
It's tracking what you're eating. That's. We should all be doing that.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Me eating a whole pack of Oreos for 1600 points.
Haley Carania Rose
Someone in the chat said she's diabetes maxing. No kidding. She's like death maxing. This is what you're doing when you don't want to look good, you want to look bad, and you want to die soon.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Why?
Social Media Safety Advocate
Why?
Haley Carania Rose
Why post that?
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Who's that for?
Haley Carania Rose
For engagement. For rage bait.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
She got us.
Haley Carania Rose
She got us. All right, the these next videos. I talked about this on the show on Friday, and I wanted to provide the context. So I told you that there are people on TikTok dog owners who believe that their dogs know how to talk. And this is. I believe that dogs are very smart and they can learn a lot of things. So I'm not fully anti this, but I think that these owners specifically are a little crazy. They're setting up these button apparatuses in which they believe that their dogs are talking to them. This one knows how to call its mom on the phone. Watch, Dad. I was home today, but she decided she wanted to call mama. Calling Mama's mobile from Shelly. Shelly called her mom. Hi, pretty. You missing mama? Your mommy's pretty, girl. You missing mama? I'll be home soon. I'm on my way. Watch the door, Mama. Be home in a few minutes. I love it. Very cute. Very cute that the dog calls the mom and knows how to do that. The mom answers. I think this is probably, like, a little much. I think if you're talking to your dog on the phone, I think that's a little crazy.
Conservative Commentator
I was waiting for the punchline. I thought they were actually have a conversation, not just press one button.
Haley Carania Rose
No press one button. She's like, call mom. She hears her mom's voice. Maybe she's learned that that one button calls her mom. But I did think it was cute that the mom said, go. Go by the door. And then the dog ran up and went to the door. So I don't know. Very smart. This one, though, doesn't want their owner to go to work. Watch tomorrow. Tomorrow. Work.
Social Media Safety Advocate
Yeah.
Haley Carania Rose
Mama has to go to work tomorrow. No, no, I can't go to work tomorrow.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Oh.
Haley Carania Rose
Do you want to call my boss and tell him that? Should we give him a phone call and let him know? Said I can't go. So these are just three buttons that the owner had to make sense of in her own head. There's no way that the dog knows that that button means that I want my mom to stay home from work tomorrow. There's just no way. But this woman believes it. Now this dog is a little more demanding. Watch outside. Outside what?
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Outside Play.
Haley Carania Rose
We can go play outside. It's a pretty dog.
Conservative Commentator
You guys have Clean hair color.
Haley Carania Rose
Yeah, we can go play right now. We can do that. We can do that. Outside play now. Do you think that this is just a coincidence? Or the dog knows that the now button means now?
Conservative Commentator
I've just come up with a theory right now that, like, five of each button, or there's five buttons for each word.
Haley Carania Rose
So it's like, oh, the odds are. Also, I was thinking, too. How many times do they film this until they get something that they can post? You know, it's like the dogs are pressing play rain. Like, yes, no, whatever, and it makes no sense. And then they're just. They're filming it.
Conservative Commentator
Yeah, I mean, like, if the buttons are, like, outside play bathroom. Yes. No. Like, you can make a sentence for a dog at a.
Haley Carania Rose
That's what I'm saying. Someone in the chat. Someone in the chat says, sorry, Haley, Some dogs are that smart. Mine knows about 80 words. Okay, send them to Harvard. All right, this next dog is a little sassy. Watch. Can you tell me what you want? Treat, bitch. Oh, excuse me.
Social Media Safety Advocate
No.
Haley Carania Rose
What do you say? No, no.
Tenant Advocate / Renter
I'm not gonna give you a treat
Haley Carania Rose
if you call me that. What do you say? Please, please, please. Bit, please.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Why is that an option?
Haley Carania Rose
Because the. The owner wants to go viral.
Conservative Commentator
You know what that looks exactly like? I've taught all of my dogs how to shake, and if they don't get a treat after a shake with one paw, they try with the other one. Yes, and that's exactly what that looks like.
Haley Carania Rose
Yes, exactly. Exactly. Last video.
Dog Owner Narrator
What's up, Bunny? Here's an example of how I contextualize an interaction with Bunny. She was standing at the buttons looking at me, which usually means that she's got something to say. So I ask her what's up? And wait for her to respond. She's staring at a ball that's to my left, so I imagine she's either gonna pounce on that or talk about it. And here's where things take a rather unexpected turn. Bunny. Bunny, play ball. She tosses the ball, and it hits the word bunny, which I assume is accidental.
Haley Carania Rose
Bunny, play ball.
Dog Owner Narrator
Bunny, play ball. Nonetheless, I use that as an opportunity to remodel the word bunny and to start playing with her a little bit. Bunny, play ball.
Tenant Advocate / Renter
Get it?
Dog Owner Narrator
Bunny. Otter. Always the voyeur. Bunny, play ball. Ah. Rough. Cold.
Social Media Safety Advocate
Cold.
Dog Owner Narrator
She drops the ball and hits the cold button. But what happens next is pretty interesting.
Haley Carania Rose
Whoa.
Dog Owner Narrator
How'd he get here? Slay. Help.
Mayor Mamdani
Okay.
Haley Carania Rose
Get it, Tug.
Dog Owner Narrator
Were those accidental? I can't be sure. Bunny has used ball tug to mean catch before. And all the words except for cold seemed contextually appropriate. Were these all happy accidents or is there something.
Haley Carania Rose
This is the same thing as a dog that has a squeaky toy that just wants to hear the noise, right? The dog is standing on the. It doesn't know what, but dropped the
Paula Pan
ball on the butt.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
I was. I was team.
Haley Carania Rose
Was that accidental?
Co-host or Guest Commentator
I was team. Maybe the dogs are talking and then that video just ruined it.
Haley Carania Rose
That's what I'm saying. These people are sick in the head. Like they're. They're justifying it in their heads.
Conservative Commentator
Bunny has used tug to mean catch. Bunny's used go outside to mean I want to take a nap before. Like, what are we talking about?
Haley Carania Rose
Someone in the chat said this dog is looking at her like the owner's stupid and it's the equivalent of a fortune teller.
Co-host or Guest Commentator
Honestly. Clairvoyant dog, maybe? Come on, Bunny. I don't know who's winning the next NBA Finals.
Haley Carania Rose
I'm not buying it. I'm not buying it. I know your dogs are all very smart. I'm sure they are. But I am not buying this. This is for the owners and the owners clout on social media only. That's my take. Thank you for scrolling along with me. You could follow me on social media at Haley Karenia. I will see you right back here tomorrow.
TikTok Woman / Interviewee

Host: Hayley Caronia
Date: June 29, 2026
Hayley Caronia brings her signature sharp, conservative wit to a packed episode exploring several headline-making and viral stories. The centerpiece is the recent CPS (Child Protective Services) "swatting" incident involving Pete Buttigieg, but the conversation ranges from New York housing politics, social media culture, California’s progressive infighting, workplace safety, and the oddities of the “talking dog” TikTok trend. Hayley’s frank commentary is interspersed with lively banter, pointed cultural criticism, notable viral clips, and humor.
Hayley maintains her characteristic biting, direct, conservative commentary. She mixes passionate criticisms (“disgusting…complete loser”), sardonic humor, cultural insight, and moments of empathy—especially regarding children and basic human dignity, even for political opponents. The episode alternates between serious analysis, playful banter, and TikTok-viral oddities, all in Hayley’s signature unapologetic style.
This episode of Scrolling with Hayley is a whirlwind of political and cultural reaction—covering the misuse of law enforcement resources in political “swatting,” the pitfalls of rent control and government overreach, progressive fractures, corporate cowardice, and the bizarre frontiers of pet-owner social media. Throughout, Hayley delivers thoughtful yet punchy takes, never hesitating to call out hypocrisy, misplaced priorities, or online absurdity. Listeners walk away informed, entertained, and thoroughly caught up on the day’s chaotic viral currents.
