Ahead on American Sunrise Early Edition Israel takes the fight directly to the Hamas leaders who had been living in luxury and what they thought was safety in Qatar for all this time. The attack on their homes in Doha leaves the remaining fighters in Gaza without any real direction. As the outrage grows over the murder of a Ukrainian woman in North Carolina, Republican leaders in the state and just about anyone who's sane is calling on the judge who released the killer to be removed from the bench. Speaking of removals, a top IRS official connected to the Obama administration's unlawful harassment of conservative groups has finally been pushed out of the agency. What took so long? Holly Paz was the top lieutenant to the infamous IRS director Lois Lerner. In New York, a new poll shows that even if Mayor Eric Adams drops out of the race, Zoran Mamdani will still defeat Andrew Cuomo in November. On the eve of 9 11, is New York doomed to getting a communist anti American mayor? And the test results are in, and they're not good reading and math results for us. 12th graders are at their lowest levels since many of the tests were introduced in the first place. The COVID lockdowns are the prime suspect for the decline. American SUNRISE EARLY EDITION begins now.

American Sunrise EARLY EDITION with your host.
Jake Novak
Jake Novak starts now. Hi, I'm Jake Novak. Welcome to this Wednesday here in American Sunrise EARLY edition. Thank you so much for joining us. I want to get right into it because we have so many really important issues, some stories that are developing really by the hour. So joining us now is Independent Women's Forum fellow Nicole Kiprolov. She's also a GOP strategist. You've seen her all over all over a bunch of television networks, including our own, over the last year or so. Nicole, let's start with the international story that's developing because of course, it's created a lot of response all over the world. But I would say that the outrage is a little bit of a pantomime. Of course, this is the response to Israel finally taking it to the Hamas billionaires. And I mean that literally billionaires who have been living in luxury in Qatar all this time, even while the world was promoting the lie that the people of Gaza are being starved, the lie that this is a genocide. These are the people who not only planned and celebrated October 7th, but they have been the ones who have been keeping that war from ending. Every time the United States comes up with a plan to end it, and Israel always agrees, these are the Hamas leaders who tell the fighters there not to release the hostages and not to give in. I'm sorry, but I have no problem with this. And I also have a feeling that despite the protestations of Qatar and some of the other people around the world, they probably don't have much of a problem with it either. Otherwise we'd see a much more vicious or visceral response.
Nicole Kiprolov
Well, right, so these are the worst of the worst. These are terrorists, and you can't really negotiate with terrorists. I would say this, I think, is a complicated situation, though. First of all, I mean, everyone agrees that Hamas needs to be taken out, right? One of the leaders targeted in the attack yesterday had actually said that October 7th should happen over and over again. What a vile, disgusting thing to do. So these are terrorists who want the Jewish people to cease to exist. They behead men, they rape women, they kill children. This is an extremely dangerous, fanatical ideology they are led by, and it's unequivocally the case that they need to be taken out. I absolutely agree with you there. In addition to that, everyone agrees that these remaining hostages, living or dead, must be returned to Israel immediately. We want, you know, the war to end, we want peace in the region. President Trump has stated that over and over again. But the complication, I think, comes from Israel targeting Hamas leaders in Doha precisely as they were evaluating a U. S backed ceasefire proposal. So I think there's a bit of a concern that this might derail diplomacy, and that's why President Trump said that, you know, he didn't approve this and it doesn't necessarily advance US and Israel's goals. But he did also say, like, like you said, that the primary goal here is absolutely to take out the Hamas infrastructure. So I do think it's a bit complicated, especially in light of the US And Qatar's, you know, positive relationship. So we'll see what happens. And there are layers of complication here, but overall I do agree that these are the worst of the worst terror. We can't negotiate it with them and they need to be killed.
Jake Novak
Yeah, well, I mean, I know what was said publicly, but I have a feeling that President Trump actually did approve prove it. Not literally not giving the okay, but I think he's okay with it. Nicole, this strike came just about a day after President Trump, you know, you were talking about the diplomatic process. So let's talk about that just a little bit more, just for a second, because this came, that strike came just a day after President Trump said this was Hamas's last chance, their final chance to accept the ceasefire deal. They have done so. Israel has done so at least three or four times, really, in just the last few months, only to have Hamas rejected because these guys living in their cushy apartment buildings and suites in Qatar were telling them no because they was no skin off of their back. So I wonder if maybe this was just a case of everyone. They had really already rejected it, there was a deadline, they didn't meet it. Here's the prediction I have and you can tell me whether you agree or not. I don't think there's going to be another word of denouncement against this attack from President Trump really probably ever again. I have a feeling that he gave the lip service he can tell the Qataris, hey, look, I said what I said and that's that. I think there's a wink and a nod here, actually, even from the leaders of Qatar. I think it's hard to believe that they wouldn't have used some of their anti aircraft missile even just to shoot a symbolic shot against the jets as they were leaving. I don't think the Qatari leaders are that upset with this either, frankly.
Nicole Kiprolov
Right. Well, you know, President Trump's statement, you're right, wasn't a viscerally strong statement of condemnation when you look at the primary goal of taking out this radical ideology. And I think that's going to be also, you know, I'm certainly not an expert on the region, but that's, I think, going to be at the crux of what this long term peace deal looks like. Because you can take out the Hamas leadership, you can take out the Hamas infrastructure, like we've all agreed is absolutely, absolutely what Israel should be doing. But how do you, how do you get rid of the ideology, the theoretical part of it? How do you not, you know, leave a vacuum behind? I think that's been an ongoing issue that has been at the core of why the region has been destabilized for so long. So, you know, I'm interested to see what the long term process here looks like. I think that's been at the core of discussions between Netanyahu and Trump to figure out, you know, how do you end this conflict once and for all beyond just taking out the immediate leaders and the immediate infrastructure.
Jake Novak
Nicole, let's get to the continuing top domestic story in this country. And I have to say, the fallout from the murder of the Ukrainian woman Irina Zarutska from in Charlotte, North Carolina, to me, has been. I've never seen a murder or a case like this that opens up more of a can of worms, that is exposing more of the rot and serious issues that affect us all in the criminal justice system, in our political system and our cultural state here in the United States as well. It's really incredible when you compare this murder to, let's say, the other crazed coverage of murders in my lifetime, the O.J. simpson case, or even more recently the Bryan Coburger case, the guy who killed those college students in Idaho. Those cases are nothing as far as their national impact and what they show about this country. I mean, I know they had an impact as far as people paid attention to them, unlike this case, which is taking so long for people to pay to take notice of. But we're seeing now about, for example, judges and an entire criminal justice system in the city of Charlotte that had DEI monitors watching to see that they didn't punish certain criminals as much as they should be a judge who doesn't. Who didn't pass the bar, politicians who still can't say anything nice or show any condolences to the victim and. And tell us lies about how they don't have enough police money. I mean, this is incredible, Nicole. Everything that's going on, but the latest now the focus on this judge, magistrate judge. I think we're gonna find a lot of people in America, like this woman who might be, by the way, profiting from her lenience with criminals because she had some kind of connection to a treatment center which she sent people. I mean, this is a major can of worms. I've never seen anything like it.
Nicole Kiprolov
Nicole, I agree with you. It's not gonna be just her. This is exposing the entire system. Like you said, and I think it was Charlie Kirk and many others on social media, on X said that America will never be the same after this. I entirely agree, and I can't use soft and tactful language here to describe this. This is just atrocious. It's disgusting. I watched the video last night. It's one of the worst things I have ever seen. I could not sleep all night. And the judge. You bring up the judge, she allowed this release based on, you know, a written promise to appear, ignoring this monster's dangerous history and his mental health issues, his severe mental health issues. What kind of a sick person do you need to be to ignore this monster's criminal history and These red flags, glaring red flags, and to let him walk around on the streets of Charlotte. This monster's continual release 14 times, 14 times. And this lack of enforcement, it exposes this prosecutorial system, like you said, that has entirely shifted from pursuing justice to fueling violence. Again. It's not just her. This is happening all over the country. And I think the failure to secure jail time or mental health treatment for a known violent offender, this is someone who was already in the system. This is entirely representative of Democrat led prosecutorial trends. There's no way around it. Democrats absolutely have blood on their hands here. Arena's blood is on their hands.
Jake Novak
You know, I had a banner on this program several months ago that said DEI equals death. I took a lot of brickbats for that. I meant it then and I mean it now. This is not just about resentment against white people or trying to right the wrongs of white racism against black people generations ago. This is about more than just resentment. This is about more than settling scores. This is about killing people, allowing murder. I mean, it's as simple as that. Not always, but in this case, if you leave, if you get people out of jail 14 times who have committed violent acts while what do you think is going to happen? These people aren't stupid. They know what the final results are going to be. Nicole, I only have about 30 seconds left, but I'd like to get your take. Charlotte's a big city, but New York's the biggest. And it looks like the polls are showing basically no way that Zoram Hamdani is going to be defeated. I mean, I guess it's too late for a real candidate to come in. Of course, going up against Andrew Cuomo and Eric Adams, who are flawed to say the least. But is New York going to get this communist and more importantly anti American mayor on the eve of 9 11? That's what we're talking about. I mean, it's shocking. Do you see any way out of this?
Nicole Kiprolov
You know, I don't know, Jake. I hope there is a way out. But what I will say about this poll is I don't think it fully represents vote consolidation. I've been saying this from the beginning. It's not just about dropping out. It's about backing one candidate. At this point it might be too late, but the point was going to be persuade your voters to vote for one candidate. Campaigning together. All three of them should have been campaigning together in one united consolidated front. And the problem is that these three other candidates, unfortunately they don't resonate with the majority of New York City voters. It would be a dream come true to see Sliwa be mayor of New York City, but I don't think he's going to get Democrats to vote for him, unfortunately.
Emily Finn
Right.
Nicole Kiprolov
Cuomo has political baggage. He doesn't have a good record as governor to say the least. Adams also has baggage. So this is a very unfortunate situation and the most unfortunate part is that it was preventable. How did we get let it get to this point.
Jake Novak
Yeah, I knew Cuomo was cooked as a politician well before the scandals came out about him. He was governor of New York and he introduced Billy Joel at the last concert at the old Nassau Coliseum, a concert hall filled with teachers and other people like that from Nassau county who suppose who Coma was defending at the time and they booed him anyway. I knew he was finished. Okay, Nicole Kipralov, you're not finished. You're finished for this segment. We will see you again soon. Thank you so much for joining us.
Nicole Kiprolov
Thanks, Jake.
Jake Novak
Coming up, what the heck was going on at the Bureau of Labor Statistics for all these years? Yet another massive revision of the Bureau's job report shows almost all the supposed job gains under Joe Biden last year were a lie. But maybe the BLS has been hiring from recent high school graduation classes where the testing for math and reading has hit all time lows. Emily Finn and I will talk about that when American Sunrise Early Edition comes right back.

That's a live look at the White house in Washington, D.C. and looks like they have a healthy breeze in Washington, D.C. this morning. Really felt like fall last night. Night in a lot, at least on the East Coast. Tell me how the weather is in your part of the country. You can tell me on Getter, Rumble x Substack, send me a smoke signal, skywriting, whatever you want to do, I'll watch it, I'll look at it and I'll and I'll learn from it. Thank you so much for joining us. Welcome back to American Sunrise early edition on this Wednesday. As I said, special welcome to all of you who are watching and commenting on all those social media platforms where you can watch this show live. By the way, the reading and Math Scores of 12th graders in America has dropped to the lowest level in 20 years, in some cases lowest level since the testing that they're using now was introduced. That's according to results of an exam known as the Nation's report Card. Now, much of the blame is being directed rightfully at the classroom time lost to unnecessary COVID lockdowns. But apparently some of these problems began before the lockdowns. This, this decline. Joining us now to talk about it is real America's Voice contributor, Emily Finn. Emily, I'm sure you'll agree that the COVID lockdowns, which were not necessary, especially for children in America, is probably the biggest culprit here. But what do you think might be another factor or two in this decline? I would say it's again, basically the systematic racism, the only real systematic racism in this country, which is the fact that the left and even a lot of the right looks the other way at the lack of decent schooling for people in minority areas and poor areas. We all basically write it off. I think that's really the biggest problem. But frankly, this is definitely affecting non minority areas as well.
Emily Finn
Those are all great points, Jake. Covid obviously was a huge, huge hit to drop or dropping these math and reading scores. But I think it's also the fact that they're not even focused on these core curriculum subjects anymore. In the classroom, we have lessons on DEI things and lessons on LGBTQ things, which. Okay, but does that belong in a public school curriculum? I think that our priorities in the classroom have gotten completely out of whack. And, no, these students are not going to be able to really focus their time on these. These core subjects if they have to take other classes that are taking them away from that. So I think it's a serious disservice, and it's going to continue until, you know, instead of having the. The cute little old ladies, the nurturing teachers that I had when, you know, I was in high school and going to school, and I mean, the teachers today are totally different. They get up to their podium and instead of teaching a lesson, they start, you know, having a therapy session about their own life. I've seen it time and time again on social media and through conversations with my friends and family members with kids. Jake, we really need to get our education system under control.
Jake Novak
Well, you know, you make a good point with the DEI stuff, because the inherent lesson of that is we are not going to judge you by your efforts and what you do as far as your work is concerned in the classroom or in the workplace. We're going to look at your race. We're going to look at the other issues that are, and that's how we're going to judge you, and that's how we're going to reward or punish you. So if you're a kid learning in school, the inherent message is, no matter how hard you work, there are going to be other factors for which we're going to judge you. So why. Why try? I mean, seriously, that really puts a damper on achievement, and I think that that really is, again, at the core of this problem, you're telling kids that no matter how hard you, no matter how well you do on a test, someone who came from a different house, whose skin is a different color, who had a different issue, is going to be rewarded more than you. That's not gonna get kids working harder in school. Tell you that right now.
Emily Finn
No, it's not. And I really think that these teachers need to be more realistic with their students. It's great if you have a talent for art or if you have a talent for, you know, something that is beautiful in this world, but if you're not going to be able to have a solid job and you're not gonna be able to make money doing this, don't send that student to a college to put themselves in debt to learn about something that isn't going to contribute to society in a, in a financial and beneficial way. So I think that there's a lot of priorities that need to be realigned in our education systems.
Jake Novak
Yeah, it's, it's a, it's a tremendous mess and we're spending plenty of money on it. For those of you who think, oh, we need to spend. No, we don't. We need to just spend it the right way. Emily Finn, thank you so much for joining us. We're going to see you in American sunrise in the 8 to 10am hour. Thank you so much.
Emily Finn
Thanks, Jake.

I'd Between President Trump and the Federal Reserve, is it putting us behind the curve again? Can the Fed take the right action at the right time or are we going to be looking at a potential economic slowdown? And what does this mean for your savings? Consider diversifying with gold through Birch Gold Group. For decades, gold has been viewed as a safe harbor in times of economic stagnation, global uncertainty and high inflation. And Birch Gold makes it incredibly easy for you to diversify some of your savings into gold. If you have an IRA or old 401k, you can convert that into a tax sheltered IRA and physical gold or just buy some gold to keep in your safe. First, get educated. Birchgold will send you a free info kit on gold. Just text America to the number 9898 98. Again, text America to 9898 98. Consider diversifying a portion of your savings into gold. That way, if the Fed can't stay ahead of the curve for the country, at least you can stay ahead for yourself. Coming up, the jobs reports for the final 10 months of the Biden presidency and the first two months of this new Trump term have been revised sharply. Downward. And this is the second year in a row we've seen these kinds of massive mistakes. What is the Bureau of Labor Statistics doing wrong? Or was it all a deliberate attempt to pump up the Democrats in time for the elections? I'll have more details when American Sunrise Early Edition returns.

So I look at New York City. There you see the Empire State Building there. You know, considering all the damage that King Kong did to that building, they did a really good job of keeping it upright all these years. You know, we're getting towards the 100th. Just kidding. We were getting towards the 100th anniversary of the Empire State Building, 1931. That'll be kind of interesting when they, when that happens. Beautiful lobby, by the way. They spruced it up. Let's take a look at where the markets will begin today here on American Sunrise, early edition. And you know, the markets have been rallying this week. We've had two rallies for the first two days of this week. Today's, of course, day three of the trading week. The, the traders are basically believing now almost 100% that the Fed's going to cut rates later this month. They like that. So we've been having modest rallies the first couple days. And it looks like we're going to open up mostly higher again today. Not in the Dow, but in some of the other indices. And look at gold. We're still, we're really playing with that $3,700 per ounce level. That's interesting. Now let's look at bitcoin. Bitcoin still remains at a place below where we've seen it in the past. Yeah, 112. Although it's up from where it was overnight, up $1,000 so far. But again, remember, we were in the 120s, not all that long ago. Hey, 911,000 jobs off. Wrong. The Bureau of Labor Statistics revising all of the jobs reports from April of last year, April 2024. I want to make sure everyone is clear about the timeline here. April 2024 through the end of March 2025. Just a few months ago, they said that 911,000 jobs that they said were created during that period actually weren't. They revised it down. Now, again, this is leading to a lot of continued complaints about the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Remember, President Trump fired the head of the BLS and everyone went crazy about it. Oh, my God. Listen, I'm not trying to wish anything bad on the woman there. And I don't know if it was really even her fault, but the BLS has problems. You might remember that during that firing I said the same thing. Nothing personal against that woman. But the BLS and the way that they compile these statistics, politics or not, is crazy. It's not accurate. Almost anyone can tell you you really shouldn't put money on it. Now, again, that doesn't mean there wasn't also politics involved. There are people who really believe that the jobs numbers were pumped up to try to make the Biden administration look good and help Kamala Harris in the election. I don't have evidence of that one way or the other. It wouldn't surprise me. But folks, whether there's politics or not, the way that they get this information is flawed. And any real statistician will tell you that the fact that Wall street bets money on it is really just a bet. It's like betting on a score or something. They know it's not economically real. They're just betting on how people, other people will respond to a number. It's really messed up. I really hope that we change the entire process. All right, I'm going to have the chicken fried steak and hold the nouveau decor. I'm talking about Cracker Barrel, of course. We just learned that Cracker Barrel isn't just going to keep its old logo after that big controversy and keep the. But they're also going to keep the little tchotchkes in the store and the decor. They were going to try to make it more modern, I think. Going to try to make it look like a red Robin or an Applebee's or something like that. That's not what we want. Cracker Barrel is going to keep the country store. Again, those plans for that called for decluttering and removing much of the homespun decor. They have now been shelved. They haven't fired their CEO yet. We'll see how that goes. Cracker barrels shares are up 1% in the pre market. That's a stock that's been recovering ever since they admitted their mistake. All right, well, here's an update on that infamous Kiss cam video. You know, the one at the Coldplay concert at Gillette Stadium, that one that got the tech CEO and his company's HR chief fired. Well, this is an interesting new wrinkle. The husband of the woman in the video, the woman was Christine Cabot. Kristen. Kristen Cabot. His name is Andrew Cabot. And he says he and Kristen were already in the process of being divorced well before this moment was caught on camera. Hmm. Now that doesn't get Astronomer, the name of the company's former CEO Andy Byron, off the hook. He wasn't getting a divorce from his wife. At least we didn't know about it. He might be now, but does this make the scandal 50% better? I don't know. But honestly, I think these folks got what they deserved. Not so much because they were having a little hanky panky on the side but because they were doing it on company time. And am I supposed to believe that this woman was going to be held in check as an HR executive when she was having a relationship with the CEO? Honestly, that's kind of a scary situation for a worker at that company. They needed to clean that up. Okay, everyone, start your engines. Ladies and gentlemen, this is Moving America.

Every day it seems we learn a little bit more about how the auto industry is adjusting to the Trump tariffs in ways that weren't so severe after all. By the way, the latest example is the fact that GM will not, I repeat, not be cutting the third shift at the Canadian plant that makes the Chevy Silverado. It's called the Oshawa plant. Now remember, the tariffs include duties on the vehicles, even if American companies are making them in Canada and Mexico. Here's the thing that happened with the Chevy Silverado. It already was a very, very popular seller for gm, but their sales are through the roof so far this year. And so it's worth it for GM to keep making it, even at an increased price. If they have to pass the cost on somewhere else, they're making it up in volume. And so while they're probably looking at ways to maybe make more of the Silverados here in the United States, the Silverado is so popular that they're just going to keep things going in Canada for now anyway. An interesting story about how the market is making a big impact. That is a very, very popular truck right now so far this year. You might remember a few weeks ago reported it's a huge seller. It's doing better than usual. You know that I hate reporting on every little recall in America. That is a big pet peeve of mine. But I do have a rule. If the recall affects more than a million vehicles, then I have to report it to you. And this recall I'm about to tell you right now is almost double that 1.9 million vehicles. This is a Ford recall again. They are recalling all of these vehicles because of an issue with the backup camera, that rear view camera. The Recall covers various 2015 through 2019 model years of Lincoln MKCs, Lincoln Navigators. Mustangs, Ford F250s expeditions, several others. Check with your dealer if you have a 2015 through 2019 model of the Ford. Ford says the rear view cameras can display inverted, distorted or blank images. You're not supposed to rely on the backup camera, but we know that some people do and that's a little scary if the thing goes on the fritz. All right, I want to head back to Canada right now because Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is freezing his country's insane mandate. Get this, it would have required 20% of all new vehicle sales in Canada next year to be electric vehicles, which is insane. Again, the demand for EV is topped out at 10%. He wants to double that and we're not even there anymore. Anyway, now officially, Carney is saying he's going to take a 60 day period to study this measure. But let me just give you the spoiler alert. They're not going to impose this. They can't. Gm, by the way, is celebrating already. It's the happiest with all of this. So GM's happy along with the 30 or so people in Canada who still have a brain. No, I'm just kidding. They're pretty smart up there, but they don't vote the right way. We know that story. Okay, I'll admit, I'll admit that I'm biased about EVs, but hybrids I kind of like. I'm not the plug in type. I don't like plug in hybrids, but I like regular hybrids. And I really like this new Ferrari 849 Testarossa that is a hybrid, but it also has a 4.0 liter V8 combining with two front mounted electric motors. And there's a third motor located within the eight speed dual clutch transaxle. This is a machine. It gets 1036 horsepower and sells for a price of. Officially, if you have to ask, you can't afford it. No, just kidding. It seriously sells for about $586,000. Sign me up. If they have a layaway plan, I think I can give them $10 a week and I can get it sometime in the next century. All right, coming up, we're going to take a deeper dive into Israel's attack on the Hamas leadership right in their luxury penthouses in Qatar. Will the oil rich nation use its extensive paid for assets in the US government and the news media? Oh, there's a lot of people on the take from Qatar, I'm telling you, right right now. Are they going to use this to push back or are the emirs of Qadar kind of okay with this. And some members of Congress are about to see a new movie documenting the horrific worldwide response to the October 7 attacks. There was no sympathy for Israel in much of the world. Instead, there was piling on, and it continues today. American Sunrise Early Edition will be right back.

It's Wednesday, September 10th. Here this morning's top stories. Israel takes the fight directly to the Hamas leaders who had been living in luxury and what they thought was safety in Qatar for all this time. The attack on their homes, penthouses really in Doha leaves the remaining fighters in Gaza without any real direction. As the outrage grows over the murder of a Ukrainian woman in North Carolina, Republican leaders and sane people all over the state are calling on the judge who released the killer in this video to be removed from the bench. That's the least we can do. In New York, a new poll shows that even if Mayor Eric Adams drops out of the race, Zoran Mamdani will still defeat Andrew Cuomo in November. On the eve of 9 11, is New York doomed to getting a communist anti American, pro crime mayor? And the test results are in and they're not good. Reading and Math results for us 12th graders are at their lowest level since many of the tests were introduced in the first place. The COVID lockdowns are the prime suspect for this decline, but there are a lot of other culprits as well. American SUNRISE EARLY EDITION continues now. Welcome back to AMERICAN SUNRISE EARLY edition. I'm Jake Novak. Thank you so much for joining us on this Wednesday, especially for those of you who are on the getto getter and the rumble chats. Also commenting on X Substack, by the way, is another platform where you can watch us live now and comment and I'll actually read it. The passive days of watching television news are long over. Why we expect people just to watch and just sit there in a trance is beyond me. That's not what we want from you folks. And thank you for participating. Joining us right now is Open Door Media executive director Rabbi Raphael Shor. Rabbi, you're an Israeli citizen and an expert on the region. So I'm just going to ask for your open ended without any much more of a preamble. Your open ended take on Israel's strike on those Hamas leaders in Doha yesterday.
Rabbi Raphael Shore
Well, I think anytime you take out evil people from the world, you're creating a better space for peace and tolerance on the planet. So what happened a couple days ago was an incredible accomplishment by the IDF in taking out some of the worst radical Islamist leaders on the planet. These are the people who architected the October 7th pogrom massacre that killed 1200 Jews, took 250 hostages. These are the people, the political leaders of Hamas, who are part of the Muslim Brotherhood. They're the same thing as isis, Al Qaeda, and they're the ones who have been denying any hostage deals for the past two years, which is why this war keeps going on, because they have not halted it. They've not given up the Israeli hostages. And so it's a great day when these kind of evil people have been eliminated from the planet.
Jake Novak
Yeah, I tell people all the time, don't overthink it. And this is true of a lot of the things that President Trump does as well. When he makes a firing, when he implements a policy, when he sends ice into a bad area or things like that. Don't overthink it. Bad people got taken out, people who planned a massive mass murder and celebrated it. People who have stopped any kind of a peace agreement or hostage release from going on, ones that President Trump and his people have been working hard on over and over. Don't overthink this. Don't make it into a bigger thing than it is. As far as a moral situation, it's not morally fraught. It couldn't be more cut and dry and just celebrate the fact that evil people have been taken out. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, and sometimes two plus two equals four. Just don't try to turn yourself into a pretzel trying to figure it out. Meanwhile, Rabbi, Israel seems ever closer to moving into Gaza City and maybe finishing this thing all completely. They've issued a complete evacuation order for the entire city. That's rare. Are we on the verge of seeing the end of this? And hopefully, with the leaders taken out in Qatar, maybe the fighters will just be in more of a disarray and they won't be as obstinate now that they don't have someone over in Qatar telling them what to do and promising them money if they listen.
Rabbi Raphael Shore
Yes, I. I certainly hope so. I think Israel's to some degree, had their gloves off because they're even always hoping that the hostage deal would be fulfilled and therefore the war would end. But these leaders in Doha, these Hamas leaders, as well as the. The military leaders in Gaza have refused it. Sometimes, like you say, we overthink it somehow with Jews and Israel, people get morally confused for some reason. You know, when Bin Laden was taken out, everyone understood this is a good thing. Israel's trying to destroy one of the greatest powers of radical Islam in Hamas. And the world shouldn't be so confused about this. The reason it's taken us so long is because we're trying to be careful about moving civilians out of the area. And a very important point here, Jake, is that the world was supposed to assist in taking civilians out of Gaza. You know, that's a Geneva Convention. And when there was a war in Syria and a war in Iraq, the world takes out millions of civilians in order to remove them from the war zone. For some reason here, the world conspired to not help Palestinian civilians leave the war zone. And as a result, Israel's left with a very difficult fighting circumstance because Hamas specifically wanted this so they could use their entire population as human shields, living underneath their terror subway infrastructure that's larger than the New York's subway system. And so, to some degree, this is the world conspiring a little bit with Hamas to make it much worse on the Israeli people and the Jewish people in trying to conduct this war to wipe out these radical Islamist evil people. And so it's a difficult situation, and the world gets very confused, unfortunately.
Jake Novak
Yeah. I think, by the way, when you talk about resettling these people, Egypt is the most logical destination. Many of those people are probably the majority are ethnically Egyptian anyway. And so, honestly, it's Egypt here. We're not talking about bringing these refugees to New York or to Iowa or things like that. In large, that would not be something that I would support or think the American people would support. They belong in that region. That's their ethnic backgrounds. And the fact that Egypt continues to seal off those folks is a sign of their hypocrisy and their inhumanity as well. Much more than anything Israel, the United States is doing. Rabbi, let's talk about the Palestinian terror attack on the bus in Jerusalem on Monday, because this is an interesting story that a lot of people in America are looking at, because it could have been a lot worse. Six people were killed. But a yeshiva student who had just been trained on having a firearm a year before and got his firearm a year before, really helped neutralize this situation. A good guy with the gun. And also, as you see in this video, in the foreground, you see a car near the bus, an Israeli cab driver taking out his elderly passenger in the backseat, making sure she was safely evacuated from the region. A lot to learn from this incident, sadly. Surely the carnage and being upset about it is the biggest thing. But what are some of the takeaways you have from this incident on Monday.
Rabbi Raphael Shore
Yeah, it's. It's a very sad situation. I live in Jerusalem now, as you know, Jake, and I'm visiting America right now on tour with the film and the book that you mentioned. Sadly, these kind of incidents would actually happen every day, except the Israeli armed forces, of which my son is now a part of, are so involved trying to destroy the terror infrastructure constantly. People really do not understand. Israel stopped 1000 terrorists attacks in the last year alone. This is not even coming from Gaza. This is coming from Judea and Samaria, from the West Bank. So we are just constantly under siege. And sadly, sometimes these kind of terrorists get through. It's impossible to hermetically seal it. But this is the kind of situation that we're dealing with, which is so horrible. And for that reason, civilians are encouraged to carry arms in Israel, despite the fact that there's a preponderance of arms that people have. Civilians have. They are usually the ones who stop terror attacks like this. And at the same time, we have very little domestic violence. So it's really something. Something praiseworthy. And in this case, as you said, it was a couple of religious Jews who study in yeshiva who were able to take down the terrorists. It could have been worse.
Jake Novak
Yeah. Finally, Rabbi, you're connected to a new documentary film about to be shown to some U.S. congressmen. I understand here today you're going to be showing it to them in D.C. i want to show the audience a few moments of the trailer. Check it out. I'd never imagined seeing what we witnessed after October 7th. This was the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust. We must normalize massacres as the sky is closed.

Would love it if they would do it again. The name of the film is Tragic Awakening. Can you tell us a little bit more about it, sir?
Rabbi Raphael Shore
Yeah. And it's available. People can see it@tragicawakening.com they can find out more information. And I'm on tour with it it here right now. It is what I call an inspiring look at antisemitism that delves into the core reason behind it. I wrote a book called who's Afraid of the Big Bad Jew? And the research that I used for the book we put into this film. The film shows that inspiring woman that you saw there in the film. It used to be a Muslim, anti Semite, who's now pro Israel. But essentially we show that the fight against the Jews, the source of anti Semitism, is really a fight against Judeo Christian values. And therefore it's something that should be of concern to all good people, good Americans, because what starts with the Jews never ends with the Jews. And so I show that we need to strengthen Judeo Christian values because otherwise, when societies begin to become more anti Semitic, it's a bad sign for where the society is going in general. And so it should be of concern. And, and so tonight, Congressman Jeff Heard and Congressman Randy Fine are hosting a screening at the US Capitol with other members of Congress. So I'm excited to be going there and speaking about it. And if anybody's interested in doing a screening in their community, tragicawakening.com and it'll be available in a couple of months, probably on Apple tv.
Jake Novak
Thank you so much. And I'll go, I'll go you one further. It's not just a war. Anti cism isn't really just a war on Judeo Christian values. It's actually a war on all civilizations. And the means are the end. They're not really looking to change anything. It's the killing that they want to normalize. You start with the people who you'll get the least pushback for killing. You normalize society, you condition society to the violence and then you can move on to killing and victimizing everybody else. That has always been the case. Rabbi Raphael Shore, thank you so much for joining us. Good luck with the film. And by the way, Congressman Fine was a guest here on this program yesterday, so good correlation. Thank you so much, sir.
Rabbi Raphael Shore
Thank you.

American Sunrise Early Edition. It's a beautiful shot. Thank you to the guys in the control room for finding that. Guys and gals, folks, welcome back to American Sunrise EARLY edition. I'm Jake Novak. You know what, we've got this situation going on with Lisa Cook, the Fed governor who President Trump fired. Now yet another judge has basically stopped President Trump from carrying out what I believe is his very just duties, lawful duties as the head of the executive branch. It's been blocked Again, this firing now Isn't blocked, it'll go to the Supreme Court. Now the question is, cuz I was talking to David Brody about this yesterday in the 9am Show. We'll talk about it right now as David joins us. We could actually have some drama at this Fed meeting. There's never been any drama at a Fed meeting. Even when people were wondering what the Fed was going to do with interest rates, they usually know. But is Lisa Cook gonna demand to participate in the meeting on September 17? Will she be blocked from the door? Will we? And of course she's gonna come with a big camera crew, you know that. Or if she's not gonna be blocked from the door, is President Trump's replacement for her be blocked? This could be. I mean, I'm gonna get some popcorn here. David, this could be really interesting, but my point is for those who think that President Trump's a dictator and I'll. This is the most accountable president we've ever had because everything he does is scrutinized to the point of making a literal federal case. I mean this is true accountability in democracy, whether you like it or not. Yeah.
Sonos Advertiser
And let's be honest, when the Fed gets together, it's bars and tone. I mean, who the heck cares? You know, I'm. No, Jake, you care. I know to a degree and people have to dissect it. But listen, this isn't must see tv, but this will be. And I think you're right. You know, Jake, I was doing a deep dive this morning at about 5:20 in the morning, which once again suggests I need to get a life. But I came prepared with some receipts because I wanted to talk a little bit about the court system because that's ultimately what this is really all about. Because they're always quote, kind of after Trump. What does that really mean, after Trump? Well, we know that they're blocking him, but as I look at the federal judges and I've got the stats here and I've got to put on my glasses, I apologize, I can't read anything without them. There are 505 democrat appointed federal judges in the country. 505. That includes circuit and appeals court. So total 359 republican appointed federal judges. Do the math. 150 or so more Democrat appointed federal judges. And if you look at the circuit and appeals level, actually the Appeals level, it's 92 even. 92. 92. But here's the problem. In the appeals level, we're talking about Republican appointed judges. Okay, so let's break that down. George H.W. bush, George Bush, even a couple from Ronald Reagan's time still around. The point is those are not Trump type judges, most of them, most likely. So that really isn't kind of a MAGA judge, if you will. And then you just look at the circuit, excuse me, the district court judges. You've got about 130 more Democrat judges at the circuit level. So, so, I mean, this is what Trump's up against. That's there are 50 vacancies right now. And that is why not to get into blue slips and all that. But that's why it's crucial that Trump really start as much as he can, even the playing field. But Democrats know this and they're blocking them and that's the whole game in town.
Jake Novak
Yeah, I mean this is why you have to get interested in these numbers. Thank you for breaking that down for us, David, because ultimately least I could do. Yeah. The judiciary has taken an active outsized level of power in this country. Well, I hope you have an outsized level of interest in the next two hours here in Merrill America's Voice because American Sunrise is coming up. I will join you in that show in the 9am hour and American Sunrise early edition will be live tomorrow from ground zero. See you then.

Date: September 10, 2025
This episode of American Sunrise Early Edition dives into the most urgent national and international news stories of the day through a lens emphasizing traditional American values and freedom. Jake Novak leads a series of rapid-fire interviews and commentary on topics including the Israeli strike on Hamas leaders in Qatar, outrage over a high-profile murder case in North Carolina, New York’s mayoral race, the sharp decline in U.S. educational outcomes, controversy about jobs numbers, and continuing political and judicial battles in America.
"These are terrorists who want the Jewish people to cease to exist. They behead men, they rape women, they kill children."
— Nicole Kiprolov [05:58]
"This is just atrocious. It's disgusting... This monster's continual release 14 times... It exposes this prosecutorial system that has entirely shifted from pursuing justice to fueling violence."
— Nicole Kiprolov [12:08; 13:10]
"DEI equals death... This is about more than just resentment. This is about killing people, allowing murder."
— Jake Novak [14:02]
“Anytime you take out evil people from the world, you're creating a better space for peace and tolerance on the planet.”
— Rabbi Raphael Shore [42:03]
"The fight against the Jews, the source of anti-Semitism, is really a fight against Judeo-Christian values... what starts with the Jews never ends with the Jews."
— Rabbi Raphael Shore [50:02]
"This is the most accountable president we've ever had because everything he does is scrutinized to the point of making a literal federal case."
— Jake Novak [56:18]
The episode is fast-paced and opinionated, with a sharp critique of progressive policies and political opposition. The tone oscillates between urgent, frustrated, and, at times, bracing or darkly humorous. Guests provide expert commentary while host Jake Novak maintains a conversational, direct, and forceful delivery. The episode is designed for listeners seeking a critical, conservative viewpoint on current events.
Note: This summary omits all advertisement sections and non-content banter, focusing on the substantive discussions and themes of the episode.
