Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. The Viral Photo: Analysis and Reactions

[02:20 – 11:40]

• Hayley introduces the now-viral images of black passengers calmly sitting among masked white men alleged to be with "Patriot Front" (a little-known group) on July 4th.
• She expresses skepticism about the authenticity and significance of the group, noting the coincidental timing of their Wikipedia creation and their "convenient" appearances.

  "It just seems weird that in 2020, a bunch of leftists were on Wikipedia writing up, you know, new pages about white supremacist groups. Just, I don't know." — Hayley [04:16]

• Both Hayley and the co-host joke that the group's existence feels more like internet cosplay than "real people," referencing "discord chat behavior" and the obscure slang used.
• Points out most conservatives she knows have never heard of Patriot Front—implying its supposed connection to the mainstream right is a stretch.

Notable Quote:

"My screen time is 18 hours a day. I’ve never heard of Patriot Front." — Hayley [07:22]

2. Debating the "Staged" Narrative and Right-Wing Response

[09:01 – 13:45]

• Discusses Laura Ingraham's public suspicion that the photo is staged:

  "'I call fake. Looks more like Antifa in costume.' No one should be able to cover their faces." — Paraphrased [08:29]

• Plays a previously-recorded video of a reporter confronting Patriot Front about political issues, which segues into the guest debating nativist rhetoric.
• Hayley and her co-host dissect the irrational logic of "real Americans" only being of European descent, noting the contradiction given America's immigrant history.
• Adam Kinzinger is critiqued for demanding condemnation of the march, with Hayley dismissing the performative outrage.

Notable Quotes:

"What are we condemning? The fact that they're standing around and not talking to people in front of a monument with flags?" — Hayley [11:09]
"If you condemn white supremacy, you'll see that every time that President Trump has condemned white supremacy, not one of those times was good enough for the left." — Hayley [Make America 250th segment, approx. 12:30]

3. Media & Left-Wing Reaction: Selective Outrage

[15:00 – 20:37]

• Highlights leftist reactions that view the image as emblematic of American racism, with some even suggesting the commuter is a "modern-day Rosa Parks."
• Hayley challenges the assertion, pointing out the ordinariness of the scene ("coexisting on public transportation"), arguing, “She doesn’t look afraid, happy, sad, or really anything.”
• Critiques the tendency to turn "degenerates" into heroes, referencing left-wing rallying around the photo while allegedly ignoring real violence against women (e.g., the Irina Zarutska stabbing).
• Accuses the left of refusing to call out violence from their own side while overblowing symbolic moments from the right.

Notable Quote:

"The left wants everyone to believe that these masked people in D.C. are like all Trump supporters and all Trump supporters are like them. They are one and the same…which couldn’t be further from the truth." — Hayley [16:58]

4. Contrasting “Threats”: White Nationalists vs. Urban Violence

[24:20 – 29:21]

• Hayley contrasts the viral photo with stories of violent attacks (specifically involving black youth takeovers and assaults on police), arguing the latter are a much greater safety concern, while the media focuses on the symbolic threat of white nationalists.
• Posits that the left ignores violence in blue cities “to avoid being called racist,” causing a degradation in public safety and quality of life—citing examples in Chicago, Fort Lauderdale, and urban policy changes.
• Suggests the left won’t “call out violence, ever,” even when their own allies (like pro-terrorist streamers) go unchecked.

Notable Quote:

“I would argue that the left embraces their fringe members with open arms and they also never call out violence, ever.” — Hayley [29:00]

5. President Trump, the Left’s Obsession, and Liberal “Comedowns”

[31:20 – 39:33]

• Discusses viral posts wishing for Trump’s death during and after his July 4th speech:

  “The left celebrates their patriotism hoping that the President of the United States dies…Sorry to burst her bubble. President Trump gave a speech. He’s surviving and thriving.” — Hayley [32:21]

• Co-host jokes about older liberals at protests, with Hayley suggesting anti-Trump animus fills a void in their lives.
• Contrasts left-wing bitterness with the charm and humor of Trump, sharing clips of his playful answers on Usha Vance’s podcast and noting,

  “How can you see this and hope that he dies? Like, he’s so charming. The left surely hasn’t seen this clip…” [39:35]

• Recurring theme: Trump is funny and relatable even to his critics.

6. Paul Pelosi’s Latest Car Incident: Media Treatment of Democrat Missteps

[41:19 – 45:44]

• Hayley covers Paul Pelosi’s hit-and-run:

  “86 years old, was driving a brown convertible and struck an unoccupied parked car…keeps going…vehicle later became disabled nearby…he hit something but didn’t know what it was.” [41:20]

• Points to media and Democratic leaders calling it a "private matter" despite the public danger.
• Repeats belief that elite Democrats face little accountability:

  “I don’t think that Paul Pelosi will get in trouble for this at all. I think he can just name drop his wife.” [44:16]

• Humorous, but underlines Hayley's charge of hypocrisy for left-wing elites.

7. Taylor Swift's Wedding and Progressive Hypocrisy on Policing, Privilege

[48:33 – 54:58]

• Criticizes Taylor Swift for “commandeering the entire NYPD for your wedding in Madison Square Garden” while supporting defunding police and leftist causes.
• Mocks her climate activism versus private jet usage, and notes the inconsistency in leftist billionaire-phobia.
• Reads from NYC Detectives Union criticizing the massive police deployment for a celebrity event:

  "They should have their wedding in Pennsylvania or wherever she's from. Can we take anything else on here?" [55:26]

• Teases about "Travis Swift" and celebrity rebranding; closes segment by affirming police should safeguard even left-leaning celebrities but calls out selective outrage.

8. Social Media Scrolling: More Meltdowns & Ironies

[56:24 – 61:51]

• Plays viral TikToks of young leftists claiming "250 years of oppression," and rebuts with a call for perspective:

  "Women have it very good in the United States of America. And if you can't see it, it just means you're dumb." [57:01]

• Comments on a black woman winning the Benjamin Franklin lookalike contest:

  "No problem with her winning. I think this is funny and stupid...But you know that someone at Netflix is drooling over this. Someone is calling up the Obamas."

• Shares lighthearted president’s barbecue parody (“every man is entitled to a big-titted goth shirt is that good?”) [60:35].

Conclusion

Hayley argues that symbols and stories pumped up by the left distract from real dangers, and that left-wing hypocrisy extends from policing to media, celebrity culture, and beyond. Through hot takes, humor, and a parade of clips, she encourages her listeners to "scroll through the chaos" with discernment — never taking mainstream narratives at face value.

For listeners or readers new to Scrolling with Hayley, this episode serves as a quintessential example of Hayley's style: biting, pop-culture-literate, and deeply skeptical of mainstream progressive discourse.

Transcript

[Haley]

Hello and welcome to Scrolling with Haley. Photos of black Americans on board a bus with masked white men has gone viral on X. The left says this is America 250, but is it really? I've got some thoughts. Plus, TikTok liberals were hoping that President Trump would die after his speech on the 4th. I'm sure he's very happy to disappoint. And Nancy Pelosi's husband is driving recklessly again. All that is coming up on the show. But first I'm going to ask you to subscribe to this show to tell a friend. Tell a friend. Tell a friend.

I switched to the midnight luxe mattress and honestly, the difference has been incredible. I took their sleep quiz, matched me to a mattress tailored to how I actually sleep and it has been a total game changer. I also added the cooling upgrade because, you know, it gets very hot down here in South Florida and I'm not waking up overheated or constantly flipping my pillow anymore. The whole experience was super simple. Free shipping showed up right at my door. Setup only took a few minutes.

Scrolling with Haley Start. Someone in the chat asked, do women wear polka dots? Do they actually ever polka? And I can confidently say I've never polka danced in my life.

[Co-host/Guest]

Yeah, I can't say I have either.

[Haley]

I don't think those two go together necessarily. Do people who polka dance wear polka dots while they're polka dancing? I don't think so.

[Co-host/Guest]

What a tongue twister. I know.

[Haley]

Sally sells seashells, right? All right, anyway, let's get into the show. So we have this photo. This is the shot seen round the world. I don't even know if it's around the world, but certainly round X. And this is the photo of a black woman on the bus in D.C. and it says, members of the group Patriot Front ride the metro as a commuter looks on during the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence in Washington, D.C. july 4th. And this was shot by Chaney or by Reuters. And this is the photo, right? Woman staring stoically ahead. And there's a bunch of people around her. They're wearing masks. A bunch. A bunch of guys. Okay, so the masked. And then another photo went viral as well, of a black man in a similar situation. Again, the Reuters photographer. The perfect place, the perfect time. And there's a black man surrounded again by these Patriot Front people. So that's what these masked men are allegedly a. They're belonging to this group. I'm not sure why anyone on the Internet is pretending they have any idea who these people are. I would consider myself to be pretty dialed into the conservative movement, however, not familiar with white supremacist groups. I don't spend my time in Discord chat rooms, and I don't know who these people are. But apparently it was started. This Patriot Front was started in 2017. This is all allegedly. Allegedly, allegedly. This is based on what I could read on Wikipedia because there's not much online readily available about this group. So very sketchy. But apparently it was started in 2017 after that Charlottesville rally. And I don't know for what reason, but the Wikipedia page was started in 2020. That seems shady to me.

[Co-host/Guest]

They always show up at the most inconvenient time for Republicans and the most convenient times for Democrats. It's very odd.

[Haley]

Well, it just seems like, okay, let's see where everything was. You know, the Charlottesville rally, people jumped on that. And that was to make Trump look bad because he said, the fine people on both sides, whatever. Okay, then that was debunked. And then that's right after President Trump was elected in 2016. So in 2017, this is when, you know, Russia gate, they were throwing everything at the wall and seeing what stuck. Right? And then the page dedicated to this white nationalist group or white supremacist group was created in 2020. That seems funny to me that if they started, they were started in 2017. I guess it takes time to, like, build up enough notoriety to. Not that this. Not that this group is notable in any way, but maybe they just didn't have a Wikipedia page yet. But I just find it funny that the group was started in 2020. And you think back to 2020 and everything that was happening, it was like they needed ammo for Trump supporters, the right to paint us into this, like, horrible group of people, you know, the basket of deplorables and whatnot. But it just seems weird that in 2020, a bunch of leftists were on Wikipedia writing up, you know, new pages about white supremacist groups. Just, I don't know. Apparently. Again, I'm saying apparently because I have no idea. This is based on the. The little research that I was able to do on this group. Apparently it's headed up by some guy named Thomas Ryan Rousseau. Again, I've never heard of him, never seen him before. Doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I'm just saying I am out of the loop on this, but this is patriot front in D.C. i keep wanting to call it Patriot Force. I don't like the Patriot Front title. I just don't like. I don't like this Patriot for.

[Co-host/Guest]

Sounds like a group. Captain America and his accolades.

[Haley]

I think. I think I'm thinking of Space Force, maybe. I don't know. Patriot Front. Patriot Front doesn't roll off the tongue. Whatever. It doesn't matter. So this is probably the last time I'm ever going to talk about Patriot Front. So anyway, this is patriot front in D.C. doing whatever they were doing.

[Co-host/Guest]

Looks like Mom.

[Haley]

Looks just like bunch of guys. And, oh, yeah, navy blue polos and khak. They got their American flags. They've got Confederate flags.

[Co-host/Guest]

You're doing good, bud. You're doing good. We got. We got plenty of stuff. How many viewers we got?

[Haley]

And they're marching.

[Co-host/Guest]

We're up to 460 now. Let's go. That's incredible. What's up, YouTube? You guys having fun? Happy 250, guys. Happy 250. I know it's hard to see the screen. Can we get. Can we get ones in the chat? If audio, video, all that's good. Can we get ones. Is everybody doing okay? If we got 460 people in here,

[Haley]

then we can we get ones in

[Co-host/Guest]

the chat for a total Aryan. Ones in the chat for total Aryan moggery. Total victory. Total Aryan Anglo.

[Haley]

I think he. What did he say at the end? They're Anglo mogging. That they were Anglo mogging everyone because they're white.

[Co-host/Guest]

I have no idea. A bunch of nerds.

[Haley]

I've never heard anyone use these terms before. Again, this just screams to me that this is discord chat behavior. Like the discord chat made it out of the group chat.

[Co-host/Guest]

I Was gonna say, I feel like you and I both are pretty in tune with the online spirit Fear.

[Haley]

My screen time is 18 hours a day. I've never heard of Patriot Front.

[Co-host/Guest]

And that's part of the reason I left that in there is because even the people covering it are in such a weird schism of the Internet.

[Haley]

This is very strange. Like, this is not mainstream at all. These are not real people. Anglo mogging is something that if Clavicular and Nick Fuentes had a baby, they're their, their love child would say Anglo

[Co-host/Guest]

mogging as he smashes his face with a bone crushing hammer.

[Haley]

What is it anyway? These are not real people. And the Internet quickly started questioning if this was staged, who funded it, who's behind it. You know, they're all masked, so it's like this could be anyone, I guess. But I will say, because I was thinking that too, because this is all just very strange, but they're certainly not leftists because they. These men certainly go to the gym. It seems like this is. It's not like they put. It's not like they rounded up antifa people and they were like, all right, take your green wig off and time to put on the. The navy blue polo. It's not like they're, you know, recycling these, you know, paid actors or whatever.

[Co-host/Guest]

They had polos and coasters.

[Haley]

They're different actors. These ones lift weights and, you know. So anyway, Laura Ingram took to X and she was one of the probably more prominent, but there were a lot of conservatives saying like, this is, this is not real. So she posted this on X saying, I call fake looks more like antifa in costume. No one should be able to. No one should be allowed to cover their faces. I actually disagree. I think you should be able to cover your face if you feel like it, but whatever. So anyway, she posted this video. Watch.

[Co-host/Guest]

All right, here we are with the Patriot front in front of the Washington Monument. Hey, are any guys speaking up on the record here? What do you guys think of Cash Patel for FBI director? Anybody? What do you guys think of Cash Patel for FBI director?

[Guest/Caller]

Anyone?

[Co-host/Guest]

Cash Patel, any thoughts? Any guys able to speak through those face diapers? Cash Patel for FBI director. Any thoughts? My dude behind the banner, what do you think? All right, anybody? Oh, you. Oh. What do you think of Cash Patel for FBI directly?

[Haley]

The leader guy?

[Co-host/Guest]

Why? I'm just wondering. I think it's a good question.

[Haley]

I don't like the FBI.

[Co-host/Guest]

I think it's a largely illegitimate branch of law enforcement and Cash Patel is probably. I don't know, I'm not really familiar with his background. He is Indian, though. I don't think Indians should be in charge of. Of any of the departments of government if, you know, states. So there you go.

[Haley]

Because he's a foreign.

[Co-host/Guest]

He's not a foreigner. He's born in America. Yeah, but he's Indian. Plenty of people. Plenty of people are born in America. What about your ancestors?

[Guest/Caller]

They're American.

[Co-host/Guest]

Yeah. Yes. Born in America. Yes. But where'd they come from originally? See, actually, just being born in America doesn't make you an American born in America. It's a second generation. That's still. Yeah, your parents are naturalized citizens and you're born in America, you're still not being a citizen doesn't make you American either. It's a natural thing. What's natural about being an American citizen? Well, nationality is a natural thing. Okay, so my ancestors are half Italian, half Irish.

[Haley]

Yeah.

[Guest/Caller]

Do they count?

[Co-host/Guest]

Why are you shaking? I'm cold, dude. I just skateboard. I just skateboarded, like eight skateboarded over here. Yeah, so. So people of European nationalities, of the European race can become American. India is not in Europe, though, so they cannot.

[Haley]

I was just going to say this doesn't really make sense because everyone in this country comes from somewhere. Cash Patel was from Long Island. I'm from Long Island. Like, we're just as American as. You know what. I mean?

[Co-host/Guest]

What do you think the pitch to these guys are? You meet somebody online and like, hey, we got.

[Haley]

Well, apparently they do a lot of recruiting on college campuses. That's what he said. He said that it's easy. It's sort of. You know, it's easy to get people to join them because there are a lot of people that feel this way. I. I will say. I was going to say the. The flawed argument there is that you have to be European to be American. Um, yeah. Anyway, everyone comes from somewhere. The only people that are from here, from here are the Native Americans. So anyway, by that logic, Native Americans should be running this entire country. And, you know, then we start getting cyclical and then it's like, now we're on the stolen land. Leftist argument. Like, it's. Anyway, the reporter there was Richie McGinnis. That video is old. They were talking about shaking and being cold. It's from January of 2025 at some other event in D.C. so this is my first time hearing of this group. But based on this video, I guess they show up to other political events, March for life, things like that. And Adam Kinzinger, a former Republican called on Laura Ingraham to condemn it on X. Yes, of course, Fake. That's the only defense you have to this. How about condemning it? And again, nobody really knows what this group is, what they're about and what they did wrong. So what, what are we condemning? The fact that they're standing around and not talking to people in front of a monument with flags. Like I don't really. What are we condemning? Right. And can I just say, Adam Kinzinger is such a frickin loser. I saw this last night and I just decided to tweet at him, tweet at him and ask why do you have a Ukrainian flag in your Instagram bio? It's not even in his Instagram bio, it's in his Instagram, I'm sorry, Twitter name, his ex name, it's Slava Ukraine. Which it's Glory to Ukraine, Adam Kinzinger. Glory to Ukraine. Slava Ukraine. American flag, Ukrainian flag. So I just wondered, you know, why he had the Ukrainian flag in his Instagram bio or his Twitter bio. And he thought that that was funny and started to come at me and was like, well, you know. And then all of his support supporters, Does Adam Kinzinger have supporters? They're all calling me like a bot. And then Adam Kinzinger was like, oh my God, we're ratioing you. Haha, bro. What, what are we doing? What are we doing? Anyway, if anyone wants to go and ratio Adam Kinzinger back, that'd be very funny. But that's. Yeah, so that's what's going on over there. So anyway, condemn what? Right, because if you condemn white supremacy, you'll see that every time that President Trump has condemned white supremacy, not one of those times was good enough for the left. You can say that you condemn white supremacy until the cows come home, but the left already thinks that they are representative of the collective, which isn't true, but they already have their minds made up. I can say right now I condemn white supremacy. The left doesn't care. They already think that I'm one of them. Now the proud boys I have heard of again, don't know much about them, but even the proud boys are pissed at the, the white supremacists are fighting. Apparently we, we went from the white girls are fighting to the white supremacists are fighting real quick. And apparently the proud boys again, I don't know who these people are. I'm talking out of my ass. Enrique. Enrique Terrio. He calls himself a shogun of the proud boys and he says, okay, so I'm not here to claim these guys are feds or anything of the sort. When I organize with the Proud Boys, we already. We always operate with a clear strategic objective at every event. Protect people, amplify an important issue, provide personal security for individuals, or in many cases, simply show up, stand tall and enjoy the camaraderie with the Boys. At conservative events, what I never understood is marching in formation. To me, it comes off as cringe and theatrical. I tend to agree. I think it looks kind of gay. He goes on. If the sole objective is simply to be seen, then the mission is accomplished. After Charlie Kirk was assassinated, the Proud Boys were asked to provide security at multiple vigils held in his honor. We didn't show up in our black and yellow. I didn't know that's what they wore. But okay. We didn't want to make it about us. The story wasn't about the Proud Boys. It was about the cold blooded murder of one of the titans of the new right. And we wanted to. We wanted the focus to say exactly where it belonged. Patriot Front chose differently. They rolled up in full uniform with their flags flying. The media immediately pounced. The headlines weren't about Charlie Kirk anymore. They were about Patriot Front. That wasn't just short sighted, it was selfish. Whether it was deliberate or not, I'll leave that for others to decide. But the effect was clear. They hijacked the moment for their own optics. A sole occasion, a solemn occasion for a fallen leader, became another spectacle for the evening news. And I will say the media pounced on this real quick. The left wants everyone to believe that these masked people in D.C. are like all Trump supporters and all Trump supporters are like them. They are one and the same. And I've said this on the show before. I have worked in and around conservative media for well over a decade. I have never met anyone who is a white supremacist. I have never met anyone. I have never met anyone who said that they knew a white supremacist personally. I have never heard of this white supremacist group. I am not saying they don't exist. Maybe they do. But it is certainly not a pillar of the modern Republican party or conservative movement. It is certainly not mainstream. But the left will incorrectly associate these men with. With the majority. They will associate them with Trump and all Trump supporters, which couldn't be further from the truth. Not that they've ever cared to tell the true truth about Trump supporters. They don't. Because we don't call the government daddy. They will call US irredeemable and deplorable. And by the way, all I've seen this group do is march around with flags and masks on, which is much more tame than the Summer Of Love in 2020. We've seen much worse from the left. And the left said nothing when their people burned American cities to the ground and looted stores in the name of George Floyd. But here's how the left is reacting to these pictures that have gone viral on X of this Black woman and black man surrounded. So Aunt Sassy Ass says this on X. A black woman surrounded by masked white nationalists on our country's 250th. This should not be America. This should not be America is what she says. Did they say something to her? Did they harass her? Did they assault her? Not to my knowledge. Now, I don't know what they're thinking in their heads, but they didn't do anything wrong by being on the bus and coexisting with a black woman. They're coexisting on public transportation. That's. That's what this. That's what the left is freaking out about. Two groups of people coexisting. Whatever's going on in their heads is their business, but they're not acting on anything. Another leftist says defining moment of the era. I believe Chaney or photo just captured one of the defining photos of the era. Someone else said that it deserves a Pulitzer Prize. Not only does it represent our current state of politics, but it mirrors many photos of past which confirm the ugly truth about progress. It must be fought for by every generation. A group of men nobody has ever heard of taking the bus. And a Reuters photographer captioning the reaction of a black woman on a bus, a train, whatever. Which, by the way, her reaction is kind of blank. She doesn't really seem to be reacting to anything going on around her. She doesn't look afraid, happy, sad, or really anything. And nothing happened. Everyone just went about their days as planned. And that's the defining photo of an era. I would argue that the fight, fight, fight photo of President Trump after he was shot in the ear is much more defining photo of the era. The era in which it's apparently open season on conservative politicians and thought leaders and members of the Democrat Party openly wait for Trump to die. That is more defining of this political era than a photo of people existing on a bus. But here's Harry Sisson saying that she's brave. Watch.

[Co-host/Guest]

This is a picture that every American should see today for our nation's 250th birthday, it was just taken by Reuters on the D.C. metro. And it's all these different white nationalists who are part of the group called Patriot Front surrounding this woman, a woman of color on the D.C. metro. All these cowards that you see in this photo are marching in D.C. right now as I'm filming this, carrying Confederate flags. They're covering up their faces. And because they don't want to own their racist beliefs, they just want to say them behind a mask. And the fact that this woman is sitting on the Metro surrounded by these freaks and she's not moving, she's not getting up, giving them her seat is a beautiful small act of resistance. And by the way, she has more courage in her thumb than any of these losers do in their entire bodies.

[Haley]

What they want to turn this woman into the modern day Rosa Parks? Modern day. Not even modern day, but the leftist Irene is Rudska so bad. Why would this black woman give up her seat on the train for a man? Why would anyone do that? Why would she do that? Out of fear. Like, why would anyone do that in 2026? Leave it to liberal Harry Sisson to be like, she's really brave for not getting up. In what world would a woman get up for a man to sit down in today's day and age? I don't understand that.

[Co-host/Guest]

Also, a bunch of posers, like, real hate groups do not coexist with people.

[Haley]

That's what I'm saying.

[Co-host/Guest]

I'm so sorry. Like, real hate groups are hateful also,

[Haley]

if they are as conservative. If they are conservative men, they're not going to let a woman stand up and give them their seat, even if they are white supremacists. Or like, I don't know anything about these people, but, like, if they are conservative men, they would let her sit. Why would they take a seat from her? And maybe the racial thing, but to your point, if they really couldn't coexist with any minority, they would maybe do something about it. This is not a hate group. Or they're like a bunch of poses, really bad at it. Yeah, I'm like, I don't know. So whatever the, the hypocrisy is that the left thinks that they're being silenced. They're always the ones that think that the First Amendment is. Is for them only. They have the power to shut down anyone who thinks differently. And you don't have to agree with white supremacists, but so long as they're not violent, how is this any worse than a BLM riot? BLM riots are way worse than this. They're. These people are entitled to their opinions, and they're entitled to march. They're entitled to wave a Confederate flag if they so choose to do that. The Constitution is rated E for everyone, but the Democrats would like to believe that it can be extended to illegals and ripped away from conservatives. So. And of course, they said nothing about Irina Zarutska. You remember this horrific video from. I believe it was last summer, the August of 2025, just horrific video of this Ukrainian refugee being stabbed in the neck by a schizophrenic black man. And she's surrounded by other black people that do nothing. They are getting up. Ooh, they're shimmy, shimmying away from her. Ooh, this. This woman's bleeding out. Let me. Let me not call for help or do anything to help her or be with her in that moment. Let me just cower away and be a useless human being. So the glaring hypocrisy is not lost on me that the left was silent when this happened. Stabbed in the back of a neck by a deranged man on public transit. But then they are glorifying this woman who is sitting around white supremacists who do nothing to her. And again, Irina Zaruska was the only white woman on that light rail train car surrounded by black people who did not help her. They watched her bleed out. So she dropped. She died a tragic death alone. She was horrified, and the Democrats did not care. You remember during President Trump's State of the Union address, he honored Iruna Zaruska's parents, and the Democrats would not stand for her.

[Guest/Caller]

Arrested over a dozen times and was released through no cash bail. Stood up and viciously slashed a knife through her neck and body. No one will ever forget there were people on that train. No one will ever forget the expression of terror on Irina's face as she looked up at her attacker. In the last seconds of her life, she died instantly. She had escaped a brutal war only to be slain by a hardened criminal set free to kill in America. Came in through open borders. Mrs. Zaretzka, tonight, I promise you, we will ensure justice for your magnificent daughter, Irina. How do you not stand? How do you not stand? I'm asking this Congress.

[Haley]

I mean, how do you not stand for that? And then all the Democrats are rallying around this random black woman that nothing bad happened to. I don't understand that. And now we're seeing reports, and I want to say reports, I have not independently confirmed any of this. And we didn't really want to run with this until we know for sure, but there are reports that this woman in these photos is a criminal and has been seen with her pants down on public transportation. So, again, the left. This is not new to the left to make a complete degenerate. You know, their. Their new shining star. They did it with George Floyd. They'll do it again with, you know. You know, allegedly. Maybe the video of her pulling her pants down is. AI. So I'll. I'll just wait and hold until we get more details, but. Wouldn't shock me. Would not shock me if the Democrats turned a homeless woman on the train into their, like, shining star. But statistically, white women would have to fear for their lives on a bus full of black people, not the other way around. Even if those white people are white supremacists. That is the lesson in all of this. Which brings me to North Charleston, where yet another white woman, this time a police officer, is attacked at another teen takeover. Which is everyone. This is what everyone's calling them these days, but in reality, this is what black teenagers are doing. White teenagers on the 4th of July are blowing their fingers off of fireworks and doing other dumb stuff, no doubt. But they're not assaulting female police officers with a weapon. Watch this. This woman is beating the police officer with a. What looks like a stick. I don't even know what she has there, but she's beating the white woman police officer. And she just walks away seemingly. I don't know how you can assault. I don't know how you can assault a police officer around other police officers and not get arrested. I don't know why she wasn't thrown to the ground and handcuffed. I don't understand that.

[Co-host/Guest]

I guess it's just a moment of

[Haley]

chaos because there's so many of them.

[Co-host/Guest]

And like you, we had kind of discussed when you sent the clip, trying to keep everybody at bay, because all it takes is one person saying, oh, we're golden. Let's just go. Take the cops. It's over for the cops. It's. It's such a bad situation. So trying to, I think, escalate, I think is probably the mindset.

[Haley]

I think that's how they operate anyway. I think they know with these takeovers that they. There is more of them than there are of the cops. They can't really be stopped if they all congregate. And there's, you know, again, this isn't like a permitted march or event or rally or anything like that. It's just random people getting together. You know, I'm sure they're getting together on social media and planning as organizing on social media. And then they show up at some random park or whatever. And I don't know what they're doing at these takeovers. I've seen takeovers in cities where they're jumping on top of cars and lighting stuff on fire. Other times it's people in a park. I don't know if they're doing anything wrong, but they're certainly just congregating, which, again, there's nothing wrong with that. Unless you start beating cops. And it switches so quickly. Like, it happens so quickly where, like, to your point, if they just decide in one second, let's just. They. They can't take all of us. And I think that's the purpose of this. Right? It's. There's more of us than there are of them. They can't take us. It's almost like a power numbers kind of thing.

[Co-host/Guest]

Well, we've spoken about it before on the show. We've seen flyers online down here saying teen takeover at. At the mall. And the local police departments have shut it down so quick and said, yeah, come hang out at the mall. We'd love to give you a tour of the jail. Yeah, like it's possible to get these under control. It does seem that a lot of this is happening in bluer states.

[Haley]

Right. And it's one of those things too, where, yes, of course you can handle it, but can you handle the consequences of the left calling you racist when you handle it? And so, no doubt some, maybe police departments in more liberal areas are not willing to, you know, bend to the Cancel Culture Mob, or they will bend to the Cancel Culture Mob. Rather not stand up to them because they're afraid of being, I don't know, getting their jobs taken.

[Co-host/Guest]

I mean, and it does have an effect because even in cities south of us, it's ruined. They've charged more for parking to keep people from going over to where the beaches are. They changed curfew laws, they've changed drinking laws, liquor license law, like, to keep this from happening, this from happening. And so it does have an effect. You know, we can't quite enjoy the beach down at Fort Lauderdale like we could 10 years ago.

[Haley]

Right, right. And. And that's the thing. It's really about living and feeling safe in your neighborhood and in your community. And these takeovers don't make people feel safe. We played the video of the Republican candidate in Chicago. I think she. I forget what district she's running for. But we played the video of her at the Trader Joe's and she's like, I'm very afraid. My kids and I are in here and there's all these kids everywhere. Again, this is, this is affecting people. They can't go to their grocery store without having a. A takeover. And it's making them feel afraid of living in their neighborhood, in their community. This is far scarier than being on a bus with Patriot Force or whatever Patriot Front. It's far scarier, far more dangerous. And again, the left says nothing. I would argue that the left embraces their fringe members with open arms and they also never call out violence, ever. They prop up Hassan Piker, who said that America deserved 9 11. He says that the streets should be soaked with the blood of capitalists. And Democrat candidates use him and his following for clout, fundraising to campaign. Elected Democrats say nothing about pro terrorist groups marching in New York City with Hezbollah flags. The DNC supports Graham Platner with Nazi tattoos and MeToo allegations. Isn't it funny how they pick and choose what to care about and when? It's almost as if they will abandon their own values and the Constitution to win. And then they point the finger at Republicans saying, we're racist, we're Nazis, we're the threats to democracy. Look in the mirror.

[Co-host/Guest]

Jim Rome takes on sports. I will always have a complicated relationship with this game, but people evolve. So do sports. Do not make me regret this. Do not make me devolve back to that guy that so many clones wish that I still was. And do not embarrass the entire country. Now I can go back. I can get there fast. Lose tonight and you got a real problem. Do not blow it. The Jim Rome show podcast. You've been warned.

[Haley]

Follow and listen on your favorite platform. And the left was hoping. And we cover this all the time on the show. This is nothing new. This is a trend on social media. It's a trend on TikTok. We see a bunch of creators saying that they're hoping and wishing and they have. They have champagne chilling for the day that President Trump dies. And fourth of July was no different. This is how the left celebrates their patriotism, hoping that the President of the United States dies. And here is this woman saying she was hoping that President Trump would die after speaking on July 4th in the heat. Watch. Good afternoon. And Donald Trump, Jefferson, Adams and Monroe all left the building on July 4th. Our big fat president is going to be speaking for two hours on July 4th in 107 degree heat. Because hell hath landed on the East Coast. You know what makes me happy? Thinking about the number four. Stay hydrated, people. Sorry to burst her bubble. Sorry. I want to know what the comedown looks like when she realizes that President Trump gave a speech. He's surviving and thriving. He did not die. Does she still dance and hope that it happens on the 5th and the 6th and the 7th? I think. I think it just keeps.

[Co-host/Guest]

I think she does the Napoleon Dynamite dance in the comfort of her own home with a frown on her face like this. Indeed.

[Haley]

Someone in the chat said, ugly af. She's straight up

[Co-host/Guest]

demon.

[Haley]

Looks like drugs are bad. The chat's going off.

[Co-host/Guest]

You think there's a correlation between these older retirees losing their minds over Trump just because they have nothing? I mean, not that they have nothing going on, but, like, they have more time on their hands, and they just get so wrapped up in this that they. Because it feels like a lot of these videos are these older crazy ladies.

[Haley]

I know it's kind of weird because, like, I don't. I don't know. It's just weird to see the. All the no Kings protests. There's, like, the Jane Fondas of the world and people of that. I don't know how old Jane Fonda is. I think she looks much younger than she is. But there are people in that age range that are going to these protests, and it seems weird. And I remember playing a video on this show a few months back of people getting basically filing out of a nursing home to go protest. And it seems like it's being. Maybe they're being encouraged, they're being ushered out there by younger people. But to your point, I don't really know what it is like, why are there much older people doing this? Some people were thinking theories online that these are the Woodstock people, they've grown up, and this is like their, I don't know, second chance at activism or something there. It's feeling like, I don't know, back to the 60s, 70s. I don't know. It seems odd.

[Co-host/Guest]

I mean, and to your point, I. I think back to the no Kings video we played on the show. It was so. Especially in Florida, which, I mean, I know it has a lot of older people, but it felt like a lot of those crowds were much older, much older.

[Haley]

And the. The no Kings protest that happened on the corner out here, all old people. Again, to your point, we. There are a lot of old people here, but why are they not playing golf? Why are they not playing pickleball? Why are they not playing tennis? Why aren't they, why aren't they playing bridge? Why have they replaced these hobbies with picketing out there in the heat?

[Co-host/Guest]

I. That part I feel very sorry for because it's got to be so hard to just be so upset. Non stop stop. And you're filling your time with Nick, Go play golf. Come on.

[Haley]

Also, there's something to be, there's something to be said for having hobbies. I think if you have hobbies and you're happy, you live longer. I think you have something to live for. If all that you have to live for. If you don't have any hobbies anymore, I think there's a reason for your physical body to. If your mental health is not in a good place, your physical health will also not be in a good place. And I think especially as you age and you get older, it's important to have friends, it's important to have plans to look forward to. It's important to have hobbies and things that you go to and things that you fill your life with. Because if not, then what do you have? Right?

[Co-host/Guest]

I think, I guess this is like what's filling that void, right? Paper.

[Haley]

But my point is to fill your time with negativity is not going to be good for them.

[Co-host/Guest]

Correct.

[Haley]

But yeah, President Trump is surviving and thriving to much to this woman's dismay. I hate again, I hate to burst her bubble. She's going to have to, I don't know, she's going to have to get excited about the next day and the next day and the next day. And again, I say this all the time, every time that these videos come up. But what are they excited for? For Vice President Vance? Are they that excited for Vice President Vance to become the president? They're going to have to wait for a very long time for Vice President Vance to die because he's young and chipper and healthy. So anyway, President Trump was being classic President Trump on Usha Vance's podcast, the Story Time with the Second lady. And these are just all time Trump one liners. So I just wanted to share this with you because it's hilarious. Do you have any time to read for fun these days?

[Guest/Caller]

So I end up reading mostly newspapers. I usually read stories about myself.

[Haley]

Well, with so much going on in the world, it's really kind of you to take a moment to read. And I know you have 11 grandkids, so hopefully some of them will tune in and watch you read this newspaper.

[Guest/Caller]

I'll make sure they watch. I'll make it mandatory. That won't mean anything. That means they still won't do it, but I'll make it mandatory. And then you have President Bill Clinton ran on a special jogging track. He had a little track built for him at the White House. That's nice. I didn't even know that until recently, but he had a track built at the White House. I don't think I'll ever do that. I don't see myself doing that. I don't know. But he actually was a nice guy. I like Bill Clinton a lot. A man that says an outdoor pool was built for President Gerald Ford and that's right on the side of the house. I don't get to use it. I don't know if I look good in a bathing suit. I haven't had a bathing suit in a long time. And here's another. John Kennedy. He was a great guy, handsome. He was the second most good looking president. They say Barack Hussein Obama as a basketball player. I don't know if he's a good basketball player. I tend to doubt it, actually. His favorite sport is golf.

[Haley]

Oh, is that right?

[Guest/Caller]

Yeah. But he won't be in the Masters anytime soon. Many presidents, it says, like Donald Trump, invite winning teams to the White House. We've had them all, which is right here. And it's true. Winning teams. We have all the super bowl teams. In fact, we have the team coming very soon. We have all of the baseball. The Dodgers were here twice in a row. They won two World Series. We have the basketball. We have everybody come and then others, like President William Taft, throw out the first pitch of baseball. He was a large man, very large. And he loved baseball. He'd go to baseball games, loved the hot dogs at the baseball games. He was our heaviest president. And I have to be careful because I don't want to supersede his record. Anything like that would be possible if I allowed it to happen. For all of you out there watching, keep yourself in good shape, right? Like you. You're in such good shape.

[Co-host/Guest]

I can't.

[Haley]

There are so many good ones in there. It's just like he's cracking jokes after joke, every page of this book. He had something, he had a quip. It's so funny. How can you see this and hope that he dies? Like he's so charming. The left, the left surely hasn't seen this clip. I do see on TikTok a lot there are, you know, videos, negative videos about President Trump and leftists in the comments will say, but he is so funny. I have to admit he's so funny. That's the one thing that liberals can't not admit. They have to admit it.

[Co-host/Guest]

He's hilarious and he knows he's funny, but he's not, like, smug about it. He throws in his one liners and you can see in his face, he's like, that killed. That was great.

[Haley]

Every time. This is Chill. First of all, are children watching this? I don't know, but children are supposed. This is for children. This is a children's show. And he's like, Barack Hussein Obama. Every time he brings up Barack, it's Barack Hussein Obama. Does he play basketball? He's probably not very, very good at it. And Usha is probably sitting there like, just stick to the script. Just read the pages, just read the words on the page. And he just can't help himself. It's so funny. President Trump is very charming, unlike Paul Pelosi, who just, he can't, he can't stay out of trouble. Paul Pelosi, Paul Pelosi. He hit and run over the weekend. Paul Pelosi involved in a hit and run crash could face misdemeanor charges, says former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband is facing possible misdemeanor charges after he was involved in a hit and run in California on Friday that left a car with major damage. And of course, he's driving around on July 4th. You might think, was he drunk? Apparently not. Apparently not.

[Co-host/Guest]

Just a terrible driver.

[Haley]

The. Well, he's 86 years old, so I think that might have something to do with it. I think maybe it's time to take the keys away. 86 years old, was driving a brown convertible and struck an unoccupied parked car. To strike an unoccupied parked car. Thankfully, no one was in it. Thankfully, no one got hurt. You got to be veering off track quite a bit.

[Co-host/Guest]

My biggest nightmare. That's a tough explanation. Hitting a parked car, empty parked car.

[Haley]

It's not like it came out of nowhere. And you could blame some other, you know, human error.

[Co-host/Guest]

There's no blaming somebody else. You kind of have to own that.

[Haley]

So then it gets worse. He briefly stopped and then drove away. His vehicle later became disabled nearby. And he told officers he, quote, hit something but didn't know what it was.

[Co-host/Guest]

He hit something so hard his car quit working. It was like, I might, I might have hit a bump. Think of all the things he's actually like, hit in his car that he's been like, oh, wonder what that was.

[Haley]

That was my thing. When I read this, I was like, okay, so you hit an. A parked car, so you're veering off track so much. So I. I'm envisioning a car parked on the side of the road. He's driving into it. Oopsies. Keeps going. And he did major, quote, major damage to this other car. So he's driving his. His, you know, vintage convertible, whatever. He's driving it into a parked car, doing damage, and doesn't get out, doesn't stop, doesn't leave a note, doesn't do the nice thing. Just keeps going. Then he dec. His car was so badly damaged that it stopped. He had no choice. He tried to hit and run. He couldn't run any longer. The car broke down. Then cops find him and he's like, yeah, he hit something, but I don't know what it was. What if it was a person? What if it. What if someone had gotten hurt?

[Co-host/Guest]

Just a fender bender, Officer.

[Haley]

Yeah, I hit something, didn't check to see what it was. Didn't care. Just kept going.

[Co-host/Guest]

So you guys put speed bumps in the middle of the highway here on

[Haley]

the side of the road. It's like, why are you on the side of the road? I don't know. So when I read this, I was like, oh, well, he must have been drunk because he's been hit with a DUI in the past, but apparently he wasn't. So he was tested, and a preliminary alcohol screening showed 0.00. No alcohol detected. Officials said a DUI is not suspected, and no drugs were mentioned as a factor. So he was not arrested, just a misdemeanor. The case was referred to the Napa County District attorney for possible hit and run charges. I think when you know someone and you. You have friends in high places, I don't think that Paul Pelosi will get in trouble for this at all. I think he can just name drop his wife.

[Co-host/Guest]

A new car.

[Haley]

He doesn't even need to name drop his wife. It's. It's his name. He's like, yeah, you know, they probably know him very well. And, yeah, I think that, you know, at 86 years old, I think maybe it's time to stop driving yourself around. If you're hitting things in the street and you keep going and you're doing damage to all the cars around you and you're a danger to yourself and others.

[Co-host/Guest]

Yeah, it's time you take away movies,

[Haley]

you take away O. You take an Uber. You have a friend drive you, a family member drive you, or you stay at home. And of course, people like journalists are reaching out to Nancy Pelosi's office and they say that this is a private matter. Private matter. They're not gonna, they're not gonna speak on it.

[Co-host/Guest]

I privately totaled my car in front of everyone.

[Haley]

It's like most definitely a public matter. The public is in danger, is in grave danger.

[Co-host/Guest]

Actually, he's on the road and he is a menace.

[Haley]

This is a private matter. It's like, well, if you crash into your own house, maybe, but if you crash into someone else's car in public, it is a public matter. And he's had a history of drinking and driving. Though in May of 2020, you may remember, he crashed his Porsche into another vehicle and he was drunk. He pled guilty or pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor DUI causing injury. And he spent only a few days in jail. But my thing is, Paul Pelosi, trouble seems to find him even when he's at home in his jammies.

[Co-host/Guest]

Beat me to it.

[Haley]

Trouble just seems to find this man. Whether he's out in the car, he hasn't had a sip of alcohol, he'll find a way. The trouble finds him. But yeah, you know, at home in your jammies, someone with a hammer climbs through your window. I was looking into that situation last night too, because just had to jog my memory. And I was reading the timeline and apparently the guy broke into the Pelosi household. This was in 2022, I think as well. 2022 was a crazy year for the Pelosi's. But anyway, the guy climbed into the. Or broke into the house and he had a hammer with him at 2 in the morning, stood over Paul Pelosi in bed with a hammer, demanding to talk to Nancy and ask her about Russiagate and things like that. Which again, I'm not saying that this didn't happen, but it just seems like every time there's a Jussie Smollett type situation, there's always like a key word that's like, oh, well, I belong to this side of the aisle or I belong to this side of the aisle. Like when the Jussie Smollett thing, it was maga. This is maga country. And it's like, no one says this. Do you think that someone. I mean, again, this happened. This guy went into the house and allegedly was demanding to ask Nancy Pelosi about Russiagate. Seems odd. Like there's town halls and things that you could, you could call her office, you could do a lot of things before you break into their house with a hammer and stand over her Husband in bed.

[Co-host/Guest]

Also, you're that infatuated with Nancy Pelosi and you go to her house when she's not there, Right. I don't know.

[Haley]

Here's the other weird.

[Co-host/Guest]

It was weird.

[Haley]

Here's another weird thing. So at 2 in the morning, the guy breaks in. The cops came at 231. What were they doing for 31 minutes?

[Co-host/Guest]

Day trading, probably.

[Haley]

He's like, hold on. While I'm here, while I have you,

[Co-host/Guest]

can I see what your next next

[Haley]

couple is like, I've been drinking a little bit, but do you want to take a ride in this car? I have a cool car.

[Co-host/Guest]

That's crazy. Crazy.

[Haley]

What are you doing for 31 minutes with a strange person with a hammer in your house?

[Co-host/Guest]

And then, in all seriousness, if we're going to play this out and like, it was a very serious incident, I would assume you're trying to talk them down and, like, keep them at bay. But I.

[Haley]

31 minutes.

[Co-host/Guest]

But I saw the video when the

[Haley]

cop arrived and then he hit him in the head.

[Co-host/Guest]

Yeah. It didn't seem like it was. It's such a weird.

[Haley]

I thought it was. It was very strange. I thought it was weird that. Because I'm reading this last night and I'm thinking 31 minutes. Minutes is a long time to keep someone at bay. And then the cops show up and that's when the guy decides to hit you over the head with a hammer. Like, that's when Paul Pelosi got assaulted when the cops were there and they caught it on body cam.

[Co-host/Guest]

Dang it. You called the cops. We were hanging out.

[Haley]

Yeah, the whole thing's bizarre. Anyway, take the keys away from Paul Pelosi. Let's discuss this Taylor Swift wedding. I. I don't like Taylor Swift. I know no one in the chat likes Taylor Swift either, but we just have to talk about the hypocrisy here that Taylor Swift made it a big stink about endorsing Kamala Harris for president. And if you endorse Kamala Harris for president, you obviously agree with her agenda, which was basically abortion on demand. And she didn't really run on much else. Just vibes and coconut trees and whatever. Brat Summer. It's just girl power. It was just a bunch of girl power. But that's all. That's really all the leftists need to go to vote. That's really all that they need to go to the polls. All they need is brat summer and girl power and they'll get there. And they needed Taylor Swift's endorsement. So Taylor Swift, you know, she did her thing, right? And it wasn't enough, wasn't enough to get them out there to vote for her. So anyway, if you support the Democrats, you support, you know, defund the police, Black lives matter, all these things and defunding the police, it doesn't really coincide with commandeering the entire NYPD for your wedding in Madison Square Garden. Like these things just don't go hand in hand. But of course, Taylor Swift is a hypocrite when it comes to politics because you know, if you're a Democrat, then certainly you're a climate activist. But she is, you know, she's taking her private jet down the road to the grocery store. So she's, you know, and it's kind of this weird thing where the left, they hate billionaires, but if you're Taylor Swift, it's okay. You know, they hate billionaires, but if you're on their team, it's okay. They hate billionaires. But if you endorse Kamala Harris, it's like, okay, we'll let it slide for you.

[Co-host/Guest]

I saw something, I think it was Bezos ex wife who had donated Mackenzie Scott. Just a crazy donate.

[Haley]

Yes.

[Co-host/Guest]

And somebody had pointed out if she had, you know, the number to end world hunger is X and she had extent exceeded that number, why not just end donated, Right? Where's this money going?

[Haley]

Well, that's the thing. It goes to these NGOs or these non profits or whatever and no one really knows where the money goes. You're better off just doing the good work yourself. But whatever. Anyway, Taylor Swift, she also, she donated a handsome sum. I think it was like 26 million. 26 million amongst $26 million as just like a thanks for shutting down the city for me or who did she donate the 26 million to?

[Co-host/Guest]

Went to a lot of places. I saw Dolly Parton got 2 million to her, her library thing that she does, which is cool. I being from Tennessee, you know, this

[Haley]

is a lot of look at me, look at me. For someone who wanted to have a private thing, like she didn't want anyone talking about the wedding. She didn't want anyone to see it. You have it at Madison Square Garden so that no one can get in and no one can get cameras in or whatever. And it's like everyone's talking about this. They've got billboards out in front of the venue and a lot of business owners were upset, rightfully so, that there was a lot of foot traffic. Well, I will say as someone who lived in New York and I'm a native New Yorker, but I lived in New York City for a while. July 4th weekend is notoriously empty. The city is empty. Everyone goes out to the Hamptons, everyone goes somewhere else, down the shore, whatever, but no one is still in the city. And I did spend a few July 4ths here and there in the city, but most of the time you want to get out, you want to go somewhere else. So maybe she thought that it would be a good weekend to do it, because despite the Macy's firework show and all that stuff, like, of course the city's still gonna run. Maybe she thought it was better because people would be cleared out. Here I am giving her the benefit.

[Co-host/Guest]

I was just about to say, we'll probably know in a couple months when this releases on Disney plus and we get a watch. Well, the making of the Taylor Swift wedding.

[Haley]

And then there's, like, logos involved. People are assuming that she's gonna sell merch and things like that. I just think if you look, can we just play the video of all these cops standing outside Madison Square? Really?

[Co-host/Guest]

The dark knight rises.

[Haley]

Like, where. Where was this during blm? Where was this during the riots? You know what I mean? But it's like, you know, Taylor Swift gets married, and every. Everyone is, you know, at her beck and call, it seems. And, you know, it's just ironic. You know, she's big old Democrat, and she's got. She's got walls, she's got security. She's got the entire NYPD there. And let me. Let me just say this. I think that they should be safe. Like, I. I agree because I'm on the right. I want everyone who go into Taylor Swift's wedding to be safe. I don't want anyone to get attacked. I want them to have their privacy. And I think that there should be police presence there, but it's just the hypocrisy of the leftists that hate police. And then it's like, oh, well, not when I need the police. When I need the police. I love the police. I love the police when I need it.

[Co-host/Guest]

Do you think Travis Kelsey becomes gay? Not what I was asking at all, but thank you for that. Do you think he becomes Travis Swift? That'd be cool.

[Haley]

Oh, my gosh.

[Co-host/Guest]

Because she's not gonna become.

[Haley]

She's not gonna become Kelsey. No, she's not.

[Co-host/Guest]

So I think just. Just take the L guy, become Travis Swift.

[Haley]

That's kind of a cool no, because. No, I. For the same reason that Taylor Swift is not going to take Travis Kelsey's name. She's built this whole thing for herself. So is he.

[Co-host/Guest]

He's just built. Cool white guy. He's fine.

[Haley]

No, he has Swift. No, no, he would not do that. I don't think that he's that. You know what? He'll take a check from Bud Light. He'll take a check from Pfizer, but I don't think he's that.

[Co-host/Guest]

You're telling me a Travis Swift jersey isn't going to do just absolute will

[Haley]

with people who don actually watch the NFL? Like, her fans will buy the Swift jersey, but they don't actually care about NFL.

[Co-host/Guest]

I will buy a Swift jersey. That's hilarious. And all 17 color vinyls from the wedding soundtrack.

[Haley]

Oh, my goodness. We have a Swifty on our hands. Yeah. This is just. I think for the same reason that she will not take his last name. He will not take her last name. I think, you know, he's got the whole thing with his brother. Like, he's got his whole career and his records and why would he become Travis Swift? I don't agree. Nobody will do that.

[Co-host/Guest]

It's kind of cool. Travis Swift sounds like the guy, like a dj.

[Haley]

I was actually kind of shocked that Kim Kardashian became Kim Kardashian West. I thought that she would just not take west at all. But she was KKW and she had KKW beauty. She.

[Co-host/Guest]

I kind of.

[Haley]

She became that Kim Kardashian dream. I know.

[Co-host/Guest]

So long.

[Haley]

So will Taylor Swift become Taylor Swift? Kelsey, I don't care. You know what? I'm going to be honest. Don't care.

[Co-host/Guest]

If they release merch, I'll make sure to grab you a shirt and we'll wear it.

[Haley]

Please don't. Please don't. But I just wanted to share this because Scott Monroe, the president of New York City's detectives union, he was upset about all this police presence at Madison Square Garden for Taylor Swift's wedding. And he said this. They should have their wedding in Pennsylvania or wherever she's from. Can we take anything else on here? Because this is a busy time in New York City and I think Travis, Kelsey and Taylor Swift should be thanking every officer standing out there in the heat, away from their families and working. And I agree with that. Let's get into scrolling time, shall we?

[Co-host/Guest]

Yes.

[Haley]

Oh, well, it's 55. We have time for. Let's do one or two. What should we do? I'm dancing to nothing out here. Okay, let's do 18, 19 and 23.

[Co-host/Guest]

Yes, ma'.

[Guest/Caller]

Am.

[Co-host/Guest]

Coming. Coming right up.

[Haley]

250 years of ongoing oppression of women, black people, minorities.

[Co-host/Guest]

Yeah.

[Haley]

And we've regressed in the last couple years. It's really exciting stuff. But, yeah, 250. That's a big birthday. There's really just only one gift that we need. Well, there's more than one, but there is one specific thing that I think we're all just on the edge of our seats, really. Are we gonna get this gift? Are we gonna get it? We've been asking. It's been on our.

[Co-host/Guest]

It's been on our.

[Haley]

Our birthday wish list for years. Maybe a decade now. Realistically, it's been on. On the wish list for probably since January of 2025. But it's. I feel like the gift is coming. It's almost there. You like? Come on, we only have a couple more days. You guys can make this gift happen. Please. Happy birthday, America. So, again, this woman, she doesn't fall into the boomer category of angry boomer who has nothing better to do. So she hates President Trump and wants him to die. This is just regular young leftist who hates President Trump and wants him to die. So she falls into that category, I guess. And she says that we're oppressed. Right. 250 years of oppression for women and people of color, and this is someone who is so sheltered. I urge her. I actually, I beg of her, please read a book. Please travel. Go anywhere else in the world. Get your head out of your dumb ass. Women have it very good in the United States of America. And if you can't see it, it just means that you're dumb. You got to get your head out of your ass. You got to see the world. We're very, very lucky here. Very, very blessed. Very, very free. Very much not oppressed. Nobody. Nobody in the United States is oppressed. Based on their skin color, based on their biological sex. Nothing of the sort. Just ridiculous. And this black woman was. She won the Benjamin Franklin lookalike contest in Philadelphia on July 4th.

[Co-host/Guest]

Bet it was a great costume.

[Haley]

I love cosplay. I love dressing up. And I already had this costume, so I just wanted to come and show everyone, you know, what I made. Because I like to sew. And, you know, this is one of my first costumes. I don't know. I think it's because of the wig. Like, the wig is very curly. I think it's also just, like. Because I made it. I don't know, though. I was so unexpected. I was not expecting to win. That guy behind her, white guy behind her is wearing the exact same costume. She claims that she sewed this from scratch. Maybe she did, but the guy behind her has the exact same one, and he's white. And she won the lookalike contest. He didn't. I think it was probably because of the wig, but the wig is not historically accurate. I would say that Benjamin Frank Franklin's hair was a lot thinner than that. I have no problem with her winning. I think this is funny and stupid. It's, like, not a big deal. But you know that someone at Netflix is drooling over this. Someone at Netflix is calling up the Obamas, and they're saying, I have a great idea. I need you to produce something for me. And it's going to be Black Ben Franklin. And there's going to be a doc, a documentary, a re. A rewriting of history. And I think they're working on it right now.

[Co-host/Guest]

Young Ben Franklin.

[Haley]

Young Ben Franklin.

[Co-host/Guest]

Michael B. Jordan.

[Haley]

No. Starring that girl. Starring that girl. Produced by Michelle Obama. All right, last one is just stupid. It's just funny. It's a little skit of the presidents at a barbecue. This is probably the last time we're gonna do Fourth of July content, but it was just some good stuff from over the weekend. So we'll go out on this.

[Co-host/Guest]

Okay.

[Guest/Caller]

How'd you die?

[Co-host/Guest]

Shot me back in the head.

[Guest/Caller]

No way. Me too.

[Co-host/Guest]

Next to my wife, I got one through the neck. I'm like, please, I hope there's another one coming. And, yeah, put one in my ears.

[Haley]

I feel like most of these amendments

[Co-host/Guest]

we could just get rid of. They're not even using them. Every man is entitled to a big titted goth shirt. Is that good?

[Guest/Caller]

See them?

[Co-host/Guest]

They're incredible. No, that's the new Fourth Amendment now.

[Guest/Caller]

Wow.

[Co-host/Guest]

Is that taff?

[Haley]

Oh, yeah.

[Co-host/Guest]

You got a zic. Oh, so much extra skin.

[Guest/Caller]

Yeah.

[Co-host/Guest]

Well, at least you won't get stuck in the bathtub again.

[Guest/Caller]

Here you go.

[Co-host/Guest]

Here you go. Get open. I feel like I haven't seen you guys in two. Score at least. Nobody score. Did that not catch on? I tried to make it catch on in history. Who's only person who said it? Guys, Andrew Jackson could make it, but he sent us these black.

[Haley]

Oh, yeah.

[Co-host/Guest]

Lined it good.

[Haley]

That's a double.

[Co-host/Guest]

I got plenty of black. No, you don't. No, you do not.

[Guest/Caller]

No.

[Co-host/Guest]

Frederick Doug. Don't say Frederick Doug. No, he does. He's a coworker. They gave me the pass.

[Haley]

No, they didn't. No, they didn't.

[Co-host/Guest]

You free the slave, you get the pass.

[Guest/Caller]

It makes sense.

[Co-host/Guest]

What's wrong if anybody can say it, it's the guy on the penny. No, they discontinue the penny. They what?

[Haley]

They what? Could you imagine Abraham Lincoln finding out that they discontinued the penny?

[Co-host/Guest]

I'd be bummed. I'd be so bummed.

[Haley]

Bummed.

[Co-host/Guest]

All right.

[Haley]

I just thought that that was funny. All right. Thank you for scrolling along with me. I'll see you right back here tomorrow. Make sure you follow me on social media at Haley Karenia. Have a good one.

[Co-host/Guest]

You can feel the intensity. Quite a bit of time, energy, effort. Everything along the way on these guys making the country proud. And I think they will this summer.
