All right, folks, let's bring in our own REV border correspondent who's currently in Colombia on the border of Venezuela and Colombia always brings us the latest news. Happy to have Oscar L. Blue Ramirez with us. Oscar, I'm hearing, and this concerns us all the time, every time we talk to you, you know, we hear about you're getting threats from the cartel or cartels on the border. Tell us about who's giving you these threats and how serious are they. And then I want to get a little into, you know, which one of these cartels is really the operative player in the region. Go ahead, sir.

D (3:41)

Well, thank you, Eric, for. Thank you, Mr. Bolton, for the invitation like always. We were yesterday on the Francisco Paula Santander bridge. It's another bridge that is also, you know, controlled by the ELN Group and also trend is one of the ones that they control. That basic, you know, that bridge, that crossing, that pedestrian crossing, we're located right there. Just recording on the limitations. Then immediately the National Guard from Venezuela send a guy on a motorcycle towards us. And this guy on a motorcycle basically told me if you cross that this line and if you don't stop recording, we will force you to come in into Venezuelan territory and we will hold you captive until we investigate you and you will be released. So that I told them, you know what, you cannot do that. I'm recording in Colombia. You don't, you're not going to violate my, my freedom of speech and my rights. And I pulled away from that. I stayed on the Colombian territory as we are located right now. We're just one step away right here from the international bridge, Otimbo Liba, Eric, that this was the bridge that millions and millions of Venezuelans migrated all the way to the Darien Gap and all the way to North America.

C (4:53)

Interesting. Interesting. So you mentioned a couple and the reason why I bring this up, Oscars, we had, we had Lara Logan here last week and she was talking about the Cartel de Los Solas being one of the more powerful cartels, especially when it comes to the elections. Nicolas Maduro leaned on them to, to win the election or steal the election that a lot of people believe Hugo Chavez used to use them as well. So I hear Trend Delaragua, I hear Cartel de la Solis, and you mentioned yet a third who are the most powerful, which are the ones that are operating, you know, on the borders and more specifically into our country, not necessarily Venezuela, Colombia, where you are now.

D (5:31)

Absolutely. The Trump administration has done the most excellent job on designating the politicians, Eric. That is the first thing. And those are the head of the snakes, Nicolas Maduro, Diosado Cabello and Padrino Lopez. The three of them are the ones that are in charge of the funneling of tons and tons of synthetic drugs through international waters. And they're in charge of the other fractions of the cartels that particularly they're the ones that they're at the head of the Snake of Carta de los Olles, the fraction of Trinder Agua and the guerillero groups on the part of Colombia. They're the ones that they're expanding all these synthetic drugs to Central and South America. So it was extremely important for the Trump administration to, to designate immediately Nicolas Maduro as a narco terrorist and also the regime as an Arco terrorist, as they have been designated. I have been here for almost five days. The borders have been completely intense, Eric, completely intense. They have deployed National Guardsmen to every pedestrian and vehicle crossing, as you see right here. And it's extremely slow to cross because they're doing meticulous inspections through every vehicle. There is a sense of the National Guard of Venezuela that they're a little bit afraid or they're scared or they're precautious of what can the United States of America do in the next incoming weeks to this country? They're going to do some airstrikes or if they are going to take down every single petroleum vessel that is international waters, as they have been doing with attacking boats, that they're trafficking synthetic drugs and international waters.

C (6:59)

Interesting. You know, and yes, it continues to evolve on what, what the US Policy in Venezuela is and will become in. Trump keeps having different ideas, and that's great, keeps them off, off their feet. They have no idea exactly what he's going to move or do next, which is perfect. My, my concern, and this is again, this is off of Lara Logan's investigative reporting, is that the Venezuelan cartel Tren Delaragua was put in place to get inside our country, to infiltrate our country and destabilize us, make us nervous, make us fearful of terrorism of Venezuelans and then Cartel de Solas is the one who, the more political, the bigger, the bigger political wing of it. It seems, Oscar, almost as if this is a coordinated effort between the government and the cartels to, to pull America apart from, from our seams.

D (7:51)

Yes, you know, the head of the snake, it is the United States of America has done an excellent job on designating politicians. That is the head of the snake, Nicolas Maduro, Diosado Cabello and Padrino Lopez. Those are the three ones that they're in charge of. All these fractions, Eric, it is not about just Cartel de los Olis. It's what they have done and what they have created. These fractions to destabilize not only the United States of America, but have control to the funnel of contaminating drugs of cocaine and also tons and tons of fentanyl using these fractions of Carten de los Olles, Trender Agua and the regime that recently, just recently, Donald Trump designated as a narco terrorist organization. The whole regime, it is all of them, all of them are the above. It is a weapon that they're using to basically have control of the whole funneling, the extortion and everything that it comes with violence and illegal and illicit activity with political affairs to destabilize every border from Central America. And the objective, of course, ultimately it is the United States of America.

C (8:50)

Yeah. Oscar, you're for the folks just joining us. Oscar's on the border of Colombia and Venezuela. And the reason why I bring that up, Colombia, Oscar, Years and years and years. I'm old enough to remember when Cartagena and Medellin were some of the drug producing manufacturing capitals of the planet. Colombia tried to make a move into more, you know, more mainstream. They think they believe they did. I thought they did too, until Trump called the Colombian people out in the government out and warned them. They took quite offense to it. But I notice you're staying safe on the Colombia side of the border. Tell us about Colombia.

D (9:24)

Well, it's, it's a lot of activity. These bridges are controlled by guerrilla groups and they're controlled massively by trend that I remember coming back here in 2023 with Ben Berkman. We were documented on our first trip all the way from here to Neco Play into the Darien Gap. It was full, it was a full on action packed business that the trend was running this particular bridges as the other one, Francisco Alas and Tander. These fractions, these guerrillaero groups as Ellene La Park Trend, Carter de los Olles, they're all united to just Basically take down the United States of America. That is the reality at this point in juncture, because Donald Trump has done what no other president in history has done. Shut down the cartels in Mexico in terms of trafficking of human beings, in terms of trafficking of children. Shut down the cartel Darien Gap, that is the Gland del Golfo designated an organization, that terrorist organization now designating the regime that has controlled South America, that is Nicolas Maduro, Deodado Cabello, and Padrino Lopez. No president in history has done that. So this is a huge, huge, you know, huge initiation of change, basically, inside of Venezuela. You. You hear a lot of the Venezuelan citizens, Eric, complaining and hoping that one day Donald Trump will liberate with this pressure, this enormous pressure, you know, releasing and, you know, basically eradicating the regime of Nicolas Maduro.

C (10:46)

Has Colombia, the country cleaned up, though, Oscar?

D (10:50)

No, absolutely not. They're getting much worse. You know, I landed in Bogota, and it is extreme violence, it is extreme insecurity. The economy is the worst. The people of Colombia are complaining a lot about it. It's turning more into what it is, you know, Venezuela and their initiations. It is not only just this. All the leftist presidents, Petro Lula, Maduro, shamebound in Mexico, all of them, they're destroying the economy. Make them believe the people that. First the poor, first the economy of the poor, first the retirees and the people that they have retired. But now you see the reality and the truth. The Venezuelans coming right here from. From Venezuela to Colombia, all of them off camera because they're afraid to be persecuted. They tell you we had it, we're sick and tired of it. You know, we're hoping that Donald Trump will, you know, do something about it, to pressure until a point that this regime will be removed once and for all after 25 years of dictatorship.

C (11:42)

Well, Oscar, you know, as we always do, we tell you to stay safe, and everyone is very concerned about you, especially, you know, when you get these threats. You have the cartels showing up at your gated community looking for you one time with your family inside. And now we hear you're getting threats by the cartels. Oscar, please do us a favor. Nothing's. Nothing by nothing is worth your life or your family's life. Please, please, please take care of yourself. Thank you, Oscar. El Blue Ramirez. Thank you.

D (12:06)

Thank you so much, Eric, like always, it's an honor to be with you.

You know, it makes a lot more sense now. Makes sense why Hollywood has put out almost nothing, nothing worth watching in, I don't know, maybe a decade or more woke nonsense remakes of movies with all female casts that no one is interested in. There hasn't been a good original idea coming out of Tinseltown in a very long time. And now we understand why. This is incredible stuff. A new article by writer Jacob Savage details how he and so many young white men were essentially locked out of that industry, Hollywood and all of the prestige industries. Why? Just a little leftist Marxist woke ideology called dei. Diversity, equity and inclusion. The scourge on Western civilization, the cancer on every part of our society. DEI is the politically correct way of saying no white men. All others welcome. It's just one part of their war on men. By the way, the war on white men, to be specific, kicked her off around 2014 during the Obama presidency. But the 2020 issue, 2020, George Floyd and the Summer of Love, well, that all push sent it all into another stratosphere. Everyone should read this piece, by the way. I'm going to sum it up for you folks, and it's really, really incredible. BlackRock was one of the largest entities forcing DEI into corporations across the country, across the world. Really. Their leadership declared that they must embed DEI into everything. Well, I'm old enough to remember when blackrock chief Larry Fink said the quiet part out loud. Like this, you, you now make a.

D (19:36)

Point of that's, that's an investment criteria for you.

C (19:39)

Well, behaviors are going to have to change.

A (19:41)

And this is one thing we're going.

C (19:42)

To, we're asking companies. You have to force behaviors and at blackrock, we are forcing behaviors. What they said, we're telling companies you have to force behavior, forcing behaviors. BlackRock is such a powerhouse, they made the rules for everyone to follow. The handiwork of ugly globalism. Its tentacles reaching into every single part of our world, our economy, our culture. And so, beginning in 2014, a lot of these industries decided they urgently needed to diversify. Otherwise, BlackRock wouldn't buy their stock. God forbid. Oh, but they didn't purge established boomers. No. Instead, they did everything possible to avoid hiring white millennial men completely. And look, we all knew this was happening, but to see it all written out in detail like this is just wild. This stuff needs to be completely gutted from society and destroyed. Starting with the people who pushed it off and profited off of it. From the very beginning, DEI stretched nearly every institution in America. And as a result, an entire generation of young Americans were never, ever even given a chance. Numbers staggering. It's no wonder President Trump has come down on DEI at these top universities, for example, this quote. Since 2022, Brown University has hired 45 tenure track professors in the humanities and social sciences. Just three, just three out of 45 were white American men, or 6.7%. Before I go on, let's just understand something. The white population is about 80% of the population in America. And if men are half of that, that means about 40% of all people living in America are white men. To have 6.7% of hiring in this one area, statistically impossible. Certainly not meritocracy. Here's another quote. Since 2018, only 14.6% of tenure track assistant professors hired at Yale have been white American men. In the humanities, that number was just six out of 76, or 7.9%. See what we're getting at here? All these big universities, all these woke universities, representation by white males is far, far, far below what the average of their population is in the country. And that's just wrong. That's discrimination. This is all about just the tip of the iceberg, by the way, all of these companies, we're talking Hollywood, we're talking newspapers, magazines, news outlets. This was a concerted effort to discriminate against young white men in hiring, which is not only illegal, it's racist. And people wonder why all statistics for these young men are trending downward and continue to. Why young men struggle with depression, loneliness, unemployment. Since 2014, Prestige Industries lost their, well, prestige. They purged talented young men hiring based only on, mostly on or primarily on race and gender, not meritocracy. And all because multi trillion dollar firms like BlackRock said to do so. They pushed these policies down the throats of corporate America. And of course all of that was with the full support of the Obama administration. And due to illegal discrimination, America lost out on an entire generation of white male talent. An incalculable loss. This really stood out to me. Listen to this quote. In the aftermath of George Floyd's death, newsrooms tripped over themselves to stage a reckoning. Listen to this. The New York Times solemnly promised sweeping reforms on top of the sweeping reforms it had already promised. The Washington Post declared it would become, quote, the most diverse and inclusive newsroom in the country. Closed, quote. CNN pledged a sustained commitment to race coverage. NPR went further still, declaring that diversity was nothing less than its North Star. Of course we're not surprised the bias kicked off mostly peaceful protests. We saw the obvious agenda lift off in real time. As I've always said, follow the money. Watch the obvious reactions to this piece. By the way, we already know the left hates hates to be called out on their woke insanity and the harm it's doing. You know they call it racist to even point it out. That's a core play for them. It's a way to get you to stop talking about it. It's a way to get you to stop pointing out that what they're doing is completely illegal, immoral, unethical. DEI has to be replaced by meritocracy. And if you push for that, you can't be called a racist or a bigot. We'll be back. Two and a half minutes.

C (27:27)

Well, on Christmas Day we announce the winner of the Christmas Most Embarrassing Member of Congress title. And that went to Jasmine Crockett, who won this year in an absolute landslide. I don't even think there's a close second. Well, maybe aoc, but even though we absolutely do not believe in giving out participating trophies, participation trophies, we're still running on Christmas fumes around here. So we thought why not give out a runner up mention to the Very, very deserving. As I mentioned, aoc. After all, she's somehow considered to be a front runner for a Democrat presidential run in 2028. And in honor of her glaring cluelessness and incitement of violence against Republicans today, we do declare the winner of the second most embarrassing member of Congress title, our favorite House Communist. Little AOC Commie of the Year. And what a year she's had. Remember when AOC decided to fight the oligarchy?

A (28:18)

Oligarchy or democracy. But we cannot have both. Los Angeles. I've made my choice. We must fight the oligarchy that has created this nightmare. And that is why I have never taken money from lobbyists or corporations. And it's why I never will.

C (28:41)

Never taking money from lobbyists or corporations. I got it. Fight the oligarchy, you say? Interesting. So then, question. Where did an AOC get the money to fly those private jets on her national Fight the oligarchy circus tour? $77,000 for just five hours of travel sounds, I don't know, kind of steep. A little extra barista money from back in the day. Aoc. Do congressional members salaries help cover some of those expenses? I think you're lying. I think you're lying through your teeth. I think you take a lot of money from special interest groups and donors. We love liberal meltdowns, don't we? But we also love a good old liberal backtrack like aoc, who felt it necessary to insult Stephen Miller by insulting every single man who lacks height. By the way, Stephen Miller is a healthy 5 foot 10 inches, which is above the average height in America, which is 5 foot 9 for men anyway. Fearing a loss of voters, AOC decides to lay it on thick in her support of, quote, Short Kings, as she puts it.

A (29:42)

I want to express my love for the Short King community. I don't believe in body shaming. I am talking about how big or small someone is on the inside. Like, for example, I have no idea.

C (29:58)

How tall Andrew Tate is.

A (30:01)

No idea at all. But that guy looks to me like 5 3. Like 5, 3, 5, 4. Whereas physically, men of smaller stature can come across. They are spiritually six foot. If you're a good dad, if you're, if you stand with women, if you're not belittling immigrants, you're like, you know, 6:3. Spiritually, I don't know, am I being problematic?

C (30:34)

Does she think the glasses make her look smarter because she is dumb as a rock? Like most liberals, ALC reveled in the online fight between the President Trump and Elon Musk of course, their friendship now is as good as the new, these new deals. I guess as could be expected. I'm sure Democrats are not too happy about that. But at least for a moment, AOC enjoyed her little snowflake gloat over the rift.

A (30:58)

Any quick reaction on what's going on with Elon Musk and President Trump on Twitter right now?

C (31:02)

Oh, man, the girls are fighting, aren't they?

A (31:06)

You know, I would say that this was something that was a long time coming where we've been seeing that these two huge egos were not long for being together in this world.

C (31:21)

Well, good to see that. Elon Musk has vowed now to support many, many Republicans. A lot of them that Donald Trump is going to endorse going forward. Right. As usual. AOC wants to make sure that we're giving the benefits that our taxes have paid for it, you know, to the illegals who invaded America. Listen to what she says, though. It's standard Democrat playbook material to replace the word Americans with the people so we know exactly who she's talking about.

A (31:47)

You know, right before we left in August, Republicans passed these massive cuts to Medicaid, to Medicare, to ebt, snap, wic, food assistance. I think if they roll back those cuts, then we can talk about this.

C (32:02)

Because folks really need to remember who.

A (32:04)

Has the keys here. Republicans have the House majority. Republicans are in charge of the Senate. Republicans, you know, Donald Trump is president. They are responsible for the most basic function of keeping government open. And if they don't have the votes to do that, and if they have to come to Democrats to get our votes, I don't think we give them away for free. And I think we use this opportunity to fight for people. And I think we use this opportunity to get people's wick back, to get their sn, snap, to get their Medicaid, to get their Medicare back. And then we can talk about fighting.

C (32:34)

On an aggressive get the people, snap wick, Medicare, medic, get the free stuff back is what she's trying to say. Can always count on a Democrat to show their pure hate for all things American. Our country, our fabric, our laws. But sometimes, much like aoc, they say the quiet part out loud.

A (32:52)

Also, you know, the other way I think you can think about it is that we are, you know, perhaps we are in the downfall of the broken way. This was not built to last. Inequity, injustice is not built to last. It lasts a long time. It could last hundreds of years, but ultimately it crumbles into this, you know, a small Cohort of incompetent people that create damage, and from that, something new can spring. And so maybe something is declining right.

C (33:31)

Now, but maybe it deserves to decline. The hell is she talking about? What's she talking about? What you talking about with us? Remember when Kamala Harris was running for president and her accent changed just about every other day?

A (33:43)

Friends.

C (33:43)

My best friend from kindergarten is still one of my best friends. That's crazy, right?

A (33:48)

Stacy Johnson.

C (33:49)

Yeah, that's dope. I love it. We used to go to the clubs.

A (33:52)

C (34:06)

A (34:09)

And my sorrow.

C (34:13)

Weeping may endure for a night, but.

A (34:18)

Joy cometh in the morning.

C (34:22)

For I guess AOC wants to follow, I guess, in Kamala's sad little footsteps.

A (34:29)

Liable for sexual abuse. Of course he's lying and abusing and.

C (34:36)

Manipulating the stock market to. You know, it's. It's pandering. It's pandering. It's what Joe Biden did. Remove those chains. When he's talking to the black congregation in the church. Or Jill Biden saying the Bogotas of New York instead of bodegas because she didn't know what the hell she was talking about. She had no idea what a bodega was. Or when she said, look at this taco breakfast, and didn't think the taco burrito breakfast or something. Had no idea that she was offending a whole Latino population that she was addressing. After all this time, after her party suffered losses thanks to the insufferable levels of woke, AOC has never wavered in her support for the evil grooming of this country's children. This potential future presidential candidate. Think about that for a second. Potential future presidential candidate. Wow. Made that much clear this summer with this bizarre statement.

A (35:27)

And I know that whether you're standing up in this room or you're walking down the street, there are little trans kids that look at you and say, there's a future possibility possible. For me.

C (35:41)

Little trans kids is little. Isn't this part of the problem? Children can't make this decision for themselves. That's why they're not allowed to drive, smoke, drink. They wait till their age of reason where their. Their minds are developed enough to reasonably decide to do something or not do something. Not when they're five. And little trans kids, aoc. It's insanity. It's terrible. You're going to ruin a whole generation. Get these people out. Please. Please, just get these people out. Finally, just like the good little globus communist she is, AOC dreams of putting a muzzle on any opinion. She doesn't like controlling the media, at least more than her party already tries to. Just an absolute dream for them, isn't it?

A (36:20)

We're going to have to figure out how we reign in our media environment so that you can't just spew disinformation and misinformation. It's one thing to have differing opinions, but it's another thing entirely to just say things that are false. And so that's something that we're looking into.

C (36:44)

Let me see. Joe Biden is perfectly fit. Joe Biden is some of his best that he's been. Joe Biden's the best president in the last 40 years. Didn't they say all that? Didn't they just lie? You call that misinformation or spewing misinformation? Aoc, there's only stuff that you disagree with. Is that what it is? It's only something. By the way, there's a. There's a term for. It's called the First Amendment to the Constitution. We can say whatever the hell we want, whatever the hell we want, as long as we don't get people hurt doing it.

Alrighty, friends, it's that time of the week where we take a look at what's going on with sports. Yay, sports, as some of my friends say. With our own RAV Washington D.C. correspondent and sports expert, Ms. Brett McHenry. Brit, really good to have you. Well, let's do this first. Let's this, let's take a look at this big college football. I love, I love this, this idea of the playoffs. I'm not sure, Brit, I'm loving the idea that they're going to take teams from around the country. Like, there's a, there's a serious void that Notre Dame isn't there. And yet what do I see? Ohio, Ohio State is going to play James Madison University. Like, if I'm, if I'm, if I'm Notre Dame, I'm like, why as hell is James Madison in the college football playoffs? And we are. What are your thoughts?

A (42:31)

Yeah, let me tee off and rev this up because I am just aghast that JMU and Tulane were in the college football playoffs. Now, how do you really determine this? Eric and I would love some thoughts that you have because we have two teams. Tulane lost by 31 points. Jmu, when I checked on the game at halftime, it was like 31, I believe, 31 to 6. This wasn't even competitive. And look, I'm all for the little guy getting its shot. I, I think I've said on this program, if not another, UCF in 2017, I believe deserved a shot in the college football playoffs. They went undefeated. I get that there's this essence of you need to win a conference. Notre Dame is not in a conference. And I will even side with the people who were annoyed with the Fighting Irish for complaining about not being in the tournament. But when I see those first two games in the Opening round and the other one to what? Miami only won 10 to 3. It's like we need to have the powerhouses in this. I don't think it works like March Madness, which is also changing in College of Nil. I think that Notre Dame, Texas, byu, Vanderbilt, they should have been considered before those two teams. So what do you think?

C (43:43)

Sure, I think you're 100% right. They're trying to mimic March Madness and you can't do it with when it takes a week to prep for a game versus you play four or five games during a week. In basketball it's a different animal. Why not? Remember the original, the way they determined the national champion where the top four teams, two of them would play each other and then they decide who had the best game. It was the coaches that determined the top four teams, right? Why? And then they decide it has to be a playoff. Okay fine. Then it was the top whatever, eight teams. Why not just go to the system of the top 12 teams? Just call it what it is first to get a buy and play it out that way. And then you have the best teams in the country. Who cares if two from the SEC are represented? I don't care.

A (44:22)

We should care. I mean to your point, I think that's the exact solution we need because what, what the hell are the rankings for anyway? If it's just going to be okay, let's take this little mid major school and I get that JMU had a great year. There's so much excitement when you're a second tier school. I graduated undergrad from Stetson University. They have an incredible baseball program. I played soccer there, but I know going into the super regionals when they played this past summer, look, they got a win against NC State. They're probably not going to win the whole thing and they didn't. I think there's a level of just self awareness and JMU fans, you got none of it. I, I just thought this was a horrible choice. And Marcus Freeman at 43 and 11 with his record at Notre Dame, he might be picked to be an NFL head coach or an NFL coach.

C (45:06)

I love, I love. They told the Bulls, go, go jump if you're not going to put us in the college. By the way, you went to Sten D1 School, great baseball program. There's only one team in the area that they couldn't beat. This little D2 school called Rollins College. And we would smoke them every time we played them. Just a little heads up there. Just a little, little tip, just a little tidbit there. Let's jump over to the NFL. We have the afc. I'll call it the game of the week. AFC on the AFC first. Okay. Jacksonville Jaguars. Wow. Wow. Did Trevor play well, didn't he? Vs. Indianapolis Colts and we got an old guy there. I mean, I don't think there's any stop in Jacksonville right now, especially against the Colts with an old quarterback, Philip Rivers.

A (45:48)

They really are steamrolling. It's funny again, being home in my father's quarters right now. He has changed allegiances, Eric, like three times. Dolphins, bucks. Now that the Jaguars are really good, he's all about them. I don't know though. Did you see how well Philip Rivers played? We talked about him coming back at 44 years old being I believe the first grandfather to play in the NFL. And he did play pretty good. Like he can escape the pocket. Well, he couldn't really when he played years ago, but I still think his IQ and knowledge of the game. I'm not going to say this is a blowout. I know you know all the gambling odds here, but I actually think if you want to bet at least money line. I'm going to bet that the Jags are favored and I don't know, I like the Colts. Am I crazy? I kind of like them with old man Rivers yet.

C (46:34)

No, it's a, it's, it's five and a half. Well, actually listen, I, I here's my view on the Jaguars, B Knicks and, and no one was hotter than the Denver Broncos and Jacksonville went into Denver and put a beating on him. I just put a beating on it. It was, it wasn't even, it was like 45, 21. It was, it was tight for the first half, but they just opened it up in the second half showing that team, that team is legit. And it took a, took a long time for Trevor to, to, to, to come around. So I don't think they're stopping. I think they could be a Super bowl team for sure.

A (47:08)

For sure. I think I see. Here you go, viewers. We're torn. Eric's going for the Jags. I'm, I'm going to just throw it up and say why not Colts? They still have a great defense. They have great corners that can I, I believe, rattle Trevor Lawrence if anyone can at this point. And I'm just, I'm not disappointed with what they had to plug in. It's like, like I saw something the other day. I'll say this, it is the first time going into playoffs since 1998 we won't have a Manning, a Brady or a Mahomes. But we have Josh Johnson coming up from the dead and we have Philip Rivers season going forward. It's. I don't know what's going on.

C (47:45)

It's a wacky year. It was a really rough year to bet. Certainly the other game, Bears In San Francisco, 49ers, couple of great teams. I didn't see the Bears coming. Bears at San Francisco. This is always a great rivalry, these two. For whatever reason, these two. I'm from Chicago. In fact, all my, all my nieces are still there. Tina, Brittany, Aria and Isabella keep sending me the pictures. They, the Bears fans wear these big gold chains around their neck with a, with big Bear's head on it and they just. That was quite a win this past week.

A (48:13)

It was interesting. Eric, I have one of those for the Commanders. I can tell you how many times I've been wearing that this season. And they're 4 and 11 road. I'm not. You can only wear, wear that type of necklace if you have swag, which the Bears do. I want to keep saying they're fraudulent this year. I believe that's still for the playoffs. However, Ben Johnson has an energy that has ignited this team much like Dan Quinn did last year. For the Commanders. I'm sure you've seen the post game locker room, him screaming the other. A couple of weeks ago he took his shirt off. They want to play for him. Caleb Williams has a cannon of an arm. I don't know why he paints his nails. But you know what? If it's, if it's throwing 60 yard bombs into the end zone to win against the packers like they did, something magical is happening with them. I'm going to go Bears on this, but if any coach knows how to read a team, it would be Kyle Shanahan. Just not in the Super Bowls.

C (49:06)

It's a great point that he, he dropped that pass. I mean I don't even know how that receiver caught that ball in the end zone, let alone he flung at 60 yards. Like it was just, just. He kind of avoids. Avoids a sack and just wings it and just drops it perfectly. And that guy was draped, that defensive back was draped over the receiver. Guys. You know what that means? That team's a team of destiny, doesn't it?

A (49:31)

You know what? I keep, I keep hating. I'm player hating on the Bears, but after that last game, I'm gonna roll with it. I think they got something magical because there's a thing of momentum in life in general. We don't have to be professional football players or athletes and I think the Bears have it. So I like look, San Francisco is still a great team and this is going to be a heavyweight matchup, but I'm going to go with you on the Bears on this.

C (49:51)

All right. Brit McKenry, always good having you my friend and looking forward to seeing you again as we do this every single week. Yay football. Yay football.

D (54:08)

Says there's still thousands of illegals in California.

C (54:11)

Mr. Bolling, this is Mr. Cooper from California. Topic for your show suggestion can we address the elephant in the room about California? I'm still seeing thousands and thousands of illegals in all the towns in my state here. Unvetted, unafraid, walking around, no ice. If you can help facilitate ICE coming.

A (54:36)

Here, that would be awesome.

C (54:38)

They're taking our jobs. And on top of that, Gavin Newsom, I believe, is keeping the price of gasoline and groceries high on purpose.

A (54:50)

I don't know if it's an extra.

C (54:51)

Tax, but we're not feeling the Trump effect here. And we want accountability. We want to feel what the rest.

A (55:01)

Of the nation's feeling.

C (55:03)

And Newsom is such a criminal. They cheat in the elections here.

A (55:10)

We all know that.

C (55:12)

But more importantly, what happened with the death threats coming out of his office? Where's Bondi? She needs help. Can we get the message of President.

A (55:22)

Trump that we need help? She needs help prosecuting these people.

C (55:26)

If we don't have accountability before the.

A (55:28)

Midterms, I'm afraid it's over. Godspeed. Help us, Eric, any way you can.

C (55:36)

Help us and hear it out in California. We need your help, buddy.

A (55:39)

Thank you so much.

C (55:40)

Love your show.

A (55:40)

Thanks, Bye.

C (55:41)

Hey, thanks, Cooper. Yeah, California really, really rough. So a couple of things there to unpack. Number one, ICE has been there. They're probably going to try and get there. But when you have a governor that literally tells the municipalities, tells the mayors and the police departments to, and the state troopers to push back on ice, it's going to be a problem. You don't want violence against ICE officers. So to a certain extent, you guys are kind of stuck with, with the governor that you have right now in the, in the way he's governing. There's a great sheriff who's running for governor in the state of California. I can't remember his name right now. Maybe you guys can remind me. But he's, I think he's leading the governor's race now to be the next governor of California. That gate, that lady Katie Porter and Swalwell's a clown. Eric Swallow, running for governor is just a joke. Hopefully that guy doesn't get in. It'll be worse than Newsom. Katie Porter's yeah. Chad Bianco. Thank you. Mad dog Chad Bianco, Sheriff, great guy, conservative military background. Been a law enforcement officer for something of 30 plus years. What a great alternative to what's going on in the state of California as far as gasoline prices. It's a lot tax. So if you look at the national average for gasoline, right around 2.85 nationally here in California, it's still up over $4. And the difference between the rest of the country, California's taxes. You're right, Newsom. The state of California have grown accustomed to, to every time they need to raise money, they throw another gas Tax. They just keep throwing gas tax upon gas tax upon gas X. There's a federal gas tax and there's a state and then a local and then California keeps throwing more gas taxes to raise money. It's horrible. But the only way it works, guys, is get rid of your governor. This way, when you don't like the president doing policies for the whole country, you change the president. Bidenomics sucked. We got rid of it. We got Trump got to do the same thing in the state of California. That means voting dude Cooper, get out there. Vote for a conservative. Chad Bianco, is your answer solving a lot of your problems in California. Mad dog.

A (57:41)

Jason from South Carolina comments about the.

D (57:45)

Venezuelan oil tankers bowling.

C (57:49)

What's up, man? Jason from Columbia, South Carolina. Hey, just wondering if anybody has mentioned that these tankers that Trump is seasoned from Venezuela and bringing them to America. I was wondering if anybody's going to put that oil to use. Maybe refilling the emergency, the emergency tank that Biden drained when he was president. Anyway, man, just an idea. Love the show, dude. Take care. Bye. Hey, Jason, thank you. No idea who you are, brother, but I thank you. The SPR Strategic Petroleum Reserve has its capacity is around 750 million barrels of oil. Biden drained it to the lowest level it ever was because prices were high. It's supposed to be an emergency use only. If we have a supply disruption, God forbid, of crude oil coming into the country, we're supposed to tap into that for national security reasons. Biden did it because bidenomics sucked and prices were going up. He thought he would alleviate the pressure, the demand side of the pressure by offering more supply. Our strategic reserve, it was misguided. It didn't work. It never works. It's supposed to be for an emergency use only. To throw that into the spr. Yeah. Okay. There's a couple million barrels coming off a vessel, 750 million barrels. What Trump could do and should do with oil prices at 55 a barrel, plus or minus, he should fill the damn thing up all the way, maybe even increase it to a 100 a billion barrels instead of 750 million a billion barrels. That would remember we use 20 million barrels a day outside of the United States states. 20 from internal, 20 from coming in. So this is not long supply. If there's a long extended supply disruption, that spro get drained pretty quick. Trump should bring that back in. But as far as putting that in, not a bad idea. I'm not sure it's going to leave a big dent in it. But maybe it will. Mad we have time for another one.

D (59:38)

Yeah. Viewer agrees about CDLs being federalized.

C (59:42)

I agree with Robert. CDLs need to be federalized. If you're going to be driving these big rigs across states and you gotta, you gotta quit saying push it to the states like California. California is a corrupt government. Corrupt state. Do you want your loved ones driving in California one day and get hit and killed by a illegal driving vehicle? That California decided to go ahead and throw them a license? No.

D (60:11)

You know, this is nonsense, Eric.

C (60:13)

You can't just say, oh, you know, California's rogue state, Minnesota's rogue state. All these rogue states, they can go and just die off. Well, that's America.

D (60:23)

That is the 51.

C (60:25)

That's the union you're talking about. All right, come on up. Sir, no offense. Listen to me carefully. I never said that. I say push things to states that states can handle. Like let states develop their own systems of taxation. Whatever. I don't like a federal government. The. The specific reason for the second amendment was to be the citizenry to be able to arm themselves against a tyrannical government. Lord Acton said, power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Meaning a big all encompassing federal government will eventually be corrupt and you'll hate that life. It'll be like communism. You don't want that. So push things to the states. Something that affects every, every single state like a cdl. I said this specifically. California should not be allowed to give driver's licenses to truck drivers that can't speak English and then allow them to drive over the state line. I said, said you want to do that? Keep them in California. Driver's license to truckers. Not to everything else. Everything else sent to the state. I don't want the federal government telling me what to do. You don't want them treating the state of Florida. We have a, we have a, we have a concealed carry. We don't need a license. We can conceal carry here. Do you want the federal government under Biden or Obama, whether or not I can carry a gun or not? No, let Florida decide that. That's what I'm saying. But things that affect all states. I agree. Federal license for, for truck drivers. All right, let's take a listen to the January 6th choir who at one point this week has been number one on iTunes charts. Take a listen to the song.
