Ben
My friend. Thank you. That wasn't me. That was. That came from somewhere else. 4:00pm all right, guys. Thank you, sir. All right, folks, it's Friday. Oh, do we really want to do the markets? You sure you want to do the markets? Here's the morning. The morning market was up. That was 350 points. And then Trump made a statement saying that he was going to slap on massive, his word, massive tariffs on China for whatever reason. Maybe they're not playing nice in these negotiations. And things went the other way to say the least. Dow Jones is ending almost 900 points lower. S P182, lower. Nasdaq 800 points lower. A little bit of silver lining here. Gold was up. Coal is up $60 because that geopolitical uncertainty rises to gold markets. Oil, very, very good news here. Oil down $2 and 50 cents. We're into the 50s now. This had to happen. This was a very, very good thing for the middle class. Energy prices will come, will come down. One of the biggest movers up in price recently has been electricity prices. You bring the price of crude down, you bring the price of all energy prices down. That's, that's good news. And crypto was following. The equity market just got slaughtered. Bitcoin was 122,000 in the morning, ends up $164,000. Slide In Bitcoin, ethereum, all of them across the board. Red, red, red, red, red. All right, folks, a peace deal has been reached in Gaza. We've been hearing about it everywhere. Everyone should be relieved. Right, Great news. Right, well, will someone pick up the phone and call Jake Tapper now? Obviously, blessed are the peacemakers. Indeed. But it is worth pointing out this is a ceasefire deal, Right? This is not a larger peace deal. You know, he's not wrong. Tapper is not wrong. But it is a first step. I mean, Israel had to back off some of their assets, some of military assets. They did that. The Hamas decided that they were going to agree and release some hostages. Will they hold a peace, peace accord? I don't know. Who knows? It's, it's tough to tell. And it has nothing to do with Trump. It's just they've, they've fought for forever. It's all they know how to do is hate each other. So I'm not sure it's going to last. But anyway, okay, but for a network, CNN willing to spread Hamas propaganda about starving children, remember when they did that? Remember the starving kid that they showed turned out not to be a starving kid, after all, you'd think there would be a little more optimism, though. At least ABC is more upbeat just a little bit, giving the president credit where credit is due. Make no mistake, it looks like President Trump has actually pulled off something here that many presidents before him have failed to do. So I get it. There's skepticism. Yeah, we're all a bit skeptic. After all, Hamas is a terrorist organization with clear intentions to wipe Israel and Jews and maybe even us, off the map. It's a fact, no matter what Greta Thunberg and her band of terrorist lovers will tell you. And we all know that you definitely can't trust the terrorists to hold up their end of the bargain, right? But this is not the only thing that worries me. And shouldn't it should worry a lot of us. What I'm really concerned about is what keeps me up at night is what happens to the useful idiots and their pro Hamas marches. What will they ever do now? Oh, I'm sure they'll find something to be aggrieved about, because that's just what the useful idiots do. Look at this useful idiot. Good, good, good. Gosh, what in the world did she accomplish? Nothing. And yet somehow this poster child of globalist evil is being hailed as some sort of hero for sailing on a flotilla, pretending to be on an aid mission just to post selfies and work on her tan with her fellow terrorist supporters. And look at these other useful idiots right here, cheering for terrorists on our soil on the anniversary of one of the most brutal terrorist attacks of the past century. Here's the thing, though. If this deal really does end that war, what will they protest then? What will they, these privileged, propagandized, clueless twits do do with all the time they have? Stay in Mom's basement? I don't know. Well, we know they'll find something to complain about, right? This. It's not about Palestine. It was never really about Palestine. This was just the next thing in a long line of anarchists needing to participate in uprisings. It's about whatever cultist cause gives these lefties purpose and their useless, sad little lives. And it's about being violent and inciting violence until they get what they want. On Tuesday, people all over the country felt an overwhelming need to celebrate the October 7th attacks. They marched the streets, calling for an end to the genocide that isn't actually even happening. Because look at these Gazans celebrating the deal. Do they look starved? They look like they're victims of any sort of genocide. The facts don't matter. To the leftists and the propagandists, because facts get in the way of marches that support Hamas and call for death to Jews and the eradication of Israel. Oh, and let's also burn America to the ground while we're at it, just to get people's attention. And of course, nothing at all to say about the atrocities committed by Hamas itself against Israel. Right? Beheading little babies, murdering whole families, whole towns, killing kids at a music festival. Thank you liberals of America and the world for taking valuable time out of your useless woke lives to vouch for evil. These pro Palestinian jackals, they're always the same people. They're sheltered and privileged. They're likely living off daddy or their other daddy, the Democrat party who insists on using your tax dollars to pay for their stuff and their ability to be unemployed and march in the streets promoting violence and socialist propaganda. Or they're paid by Hamas to take to the streets either way. Or maybe even Soros, I don't know. They're paid by somebody. They gotta live right. That's their only job. Either way, they don't have a real job or responsibilities or worries. So they've time to make signs and take to the streets and convey messages about something they have absolutely no clue about whatsoever. Remember those mostly peaceful protests in the summer of 2020 after Saint Floyd, the career criminal died from being a career criminal. Well, the pro Palestinian marches, the anti ice marches, they're just BLM 2.0. They're the same people, literally the same people with the same objectives. They want to topple the west, our culture, our civilization. They hate democracy. And now if the peace deal sticks, well, they're out of a job, at least for now. But they'll find the next thing. They'll always have something and something to complain about and somewhere to go. What are we doing now? Ukraine. All right, count me in. What's on the schedule for today's march? Black Lives Matter?
- [07:09]
Jillian Barberry
Sure.
- [07:10]
Ben
How about transgenderism? Yes. Pro Palestine? No problem. No. King's Day? The fifth one. All right, let's do it. Increase funding for salsa dancing for monkey monkeys in Ecuador. All right. And it would be one thing if we're just talking about marching with stupid signs, but here's where it gets a little messy. Deadly even. They've changed it up now because they're happy to incite violence and killing to get what they want. They use heavy words like genocide to incite violence against Jews and they use heavy words like fascist and even Nazi and KKK to describe the President of the United states, Donald Trump, the entire administration and even supporters.
- [07:51]
Steve Bannon
Let me ask you tonight, do you.
- [07:52]
Ben
Think Donald Trump is a fascist?
- [07:54]
Eric
Yes, I do. Yes, I do.
- [07:57]
Ben
It's time that fascism is called fascism and Americans know exactly what they're voting for. What I know is in the early days of the Nazi regime, they started slowly but surely taking away people's rights.
- [08:08]
Steve Bannon
And what we're seeing now is the very same thing.
- [08:12]
Ben
By the way, Joe Scarborough, Fascist? Really, you clown? It's not just peaceful protests paid for by daddy and George Soros anymore. And they know what they're saying and they know full well what they're doing. They there's nothing peaceful about the left anymore. And the useful idiots are there to help them get whatever the heck it is that they want at whatever cost it takes to get it at our expense. They want blood, whatever it takes until they get what they want. The experts at Done with Debt discovered a new strategy that can dramatically reduce or even eliminate your debt. Gillian Barberry joins me now. You know her as a TV personality, but what you may not know is she's lived through this debt stress herself. Gillian, welcome. You've been through the debt battle. What do you know now that you wished you had known prior the previous iteration before you knew about what you know now about debt?
- [09:04]
Jillian Barberry
Eric that's a great question. I wish I would have known about done with debt sooner because when you are struggling in debt and you're completely underwater, your mind isn't your, you're just, you're freaking out. You're not telling your family, you're getting calls, you're getting harassing letters and you think you're alone. You're not. You are not. There are people out there. Donewithdebt.com go to them right now before you pay another bill. This is the first thing I tell people. Don't pay another bill until you talk with donewithdat.com because they are expert strategizers. They will go to bat for you. They will talk to the financial institutions, banking institutions. They know exactly. They can renegotiate. And if you don't have the money, they can basically say pound sand or page pennies on the dollar. You have no idea what they can do. And some people end up with money in their pocket. At the end of it, there are teams of people that are ready to help you. In fact, if you go on donewithdeb.com take a look at some of the testimonials and you'll see, like whether you're $10,000 in debt or 100,000. My situation was so much worse. There are people that are living paycheck to paycheck and I get that. And I had been on, I don't know, 30 years. And you assume everything's going great. However, when divorce hits, when your money isn't being managed the way you thought it was, you have a money manager that wasn't doing right by you. And then you get cancer. You don't have that little sort of Easter egg over here of thousands of dollars to help with your cancer. It was pretty crazy. And job loss. So I had everything at the front door. And it puts you into this spiral. And I was raising two kids on my own with no spousal support. And it was the worst time of my life. And I went through that by myself for a year. And then somebody had mentioned donewithdet.com and I was completely ignorant to it, Eric. I had no idea what they were, what they offered. And when I found out and made that call, life changed overnight.
- [11:13]
Ben
So, Julian, can you know about a minute or so. Can you just tell us how do you do it? How do you. As someone who I want to. We consolidate. What do we do? What's the. What's the process? And just pick up the phone and call. Go ahead.
- [11:26]
Jillian Barberry
Thank you for asking that. The one thing that done with that does not want to do is push you into a bankruptcy. They don't want to get you into some huge big conglomerated loan where everything's all together. No.
- [11:38]
Ben
What.
- [11:39]
Jillian Barberry
They have a very strategic plan. It's extremely different. It is to me, by far the best way to get ahead. And they will, as I said, go to bat for you. Once I had done with debt in my pocket and I knew these guys were working for me and they looked at everything and they formed the plan. It happened overnight. Look at the testimonials. And your first consultation will be absolutely free. They know where you are coming from. These are people that either have been there or they are extremely well connected.
- [12:15]
Ben
All I gotta do is go to. Done with that. Done with that. The website. Done with that.that org is what I'm seeing right here. Is that right? Real quick? Yeah, that's it.
- [12:22]
Jillian Barberry
No, it's done with that dot com.
- [12:24]
Ben
Done with that dot com, folks. Donewithdat.com and just pick up the phone, give them a call and they will help you work through your debt bomb, as they say. Jillian, always good having you on, my friend. Thank you so much.
- [12:38]
Jillian Barberry
So much, Eric. I appreciate you have a great day.
- [12:40]
Ben
Thank you. You too. All right, folks, very quickly, Jordan Belfort, the Wolf of Wall street, made hundreds of millions, lost hundreds of millions, went debt negative. Hundreds of millions. Ask him what, if any, are your regrets. Watch. You've owned your mistakes publicly. What's the hardest truth that you have to come to terms with? You know, I think that people lost money, right? Like, that sucks that people lost money. And I, you know, people say, oh, it's Wall street dating. You mentioned it in passing. And they were rich people. I mean, we did not. When I was at Stratton, there were no poor people. Now, I'm not saying that that makes it okay, but it's a lot less worse than calling a multimillionaire who loses a little bit of money to panther. A poor person gets wiped out. We did not do that. And the FBI agent, by the way, confirmed it that when I was at Stratton, that never happened. Happened. It did not happen after I left. I don't know what happened. I was not running the firm anymore. But, but I guess that was sort of. But this nonetheless. And again, I don't want to minimize that. But like, that's always difficult to, to come to terms with. And do, do this for me. Just open your phone, take, take your phone, your camera, and hit that subscribe screen right there. That little QR code. Hit subscribe. It's always going to be free. Goes right to YouTube. Subscribe. This is a fascinating interview. You're going to love it. We have a lot more coming. Please subscribe. We'll be right back. Two and a half minutes. Well, here's a timely interview too, right, folks. Gold is up over 50 this year. That's right. Not speculation. That's reality. And my next guest says if a portion of your savings isn't diversified into gold, well, you're missing the boat. Here to give us insight is Birch Gold Group precious metal specialist, Philip Patrick. Welcome back, Philip. And I'm just going to jump right over here on my stock market page because I watched everything melting down today. And you know what didn't melt down? Gold. Gold actually melted up, my friend. We've been talking about this a long time. In times of uncertainty and when the stock market goes from 300 higher to 900 lower, I would call that uncertainty gold. You know, people say all the time, is it too late to buy?
- [15:04]
Philip Patrick
Philip, the answer is, is absolutely not. First and foremost, Goldman Sachs just came out. They have up, I think it was on Monday or Tuesday of this week. Raised their prediction now for the yellow metal, gold will hit. They believe $4900 by this time next year. What we're seeing now is not an emotional run on gold. We're seeing something very different. This isn't panic buying. This is a structural shift. For the first time in decades, mainstream money managers, pension funds, institutions, endowments, they're acknowledging the paper promises do not hedge financial risk. And they're moving heavily into gold, both investment banks, central banks. And the pace is increasing, not letting up. So I think prices will continue to surge. And I think this is a, not a rally, but a repricing of reality. I think gold has been undervalued for a long time now. Government debt is not being viewed as the safe haven it once was. We're seeing an adjustment back to gold.
- [16:08]
Ben
That's fascinating. And this was a good test when, when the market was so April 2, when Trump announced the initial tariffs, there's a big washout. Everything and everything kind of worked its way back. And gold never, never really lost ground, kept going higher. This today was a very good test because a lot of people were saying that cryptocurrency could be the other hedge against negative geopolitical forces or, or a melting down stock market. Crypto got crushed today. Gold was the only shining light across the. The only thing green on my screen is gold.
- [16:39]
Philip Patrick
Yet, look, the thing about gold is we have 5,000 years of history, so we understand very well how gold performs in relation to the dollar, in relation to inflation and financial markets. I agree with you. I think crypto will pick up a lot from de dollarization because I think people are looking for stores of wealth outside of the dollar. So I think it'll pick up. But what it doesn't have is that safe haven property, that inverse relationship with currency. So it's moving a little independently for people who know the problems. Gold is a solution.
- [17:10]
Ben
You want a tough question? Let me throw you a tough one from a trader, from a Wall street guy a long time, right? Here's, here's a question. Okay. I want to get into metals. I think metals are. I need to diversify. My options are gold, silver, maybe even platinum. But my real options are gold and silver. Gold is 44,023 an ounce. Silver is $47 an ounce. And so some people say, well, let me jump into silver because it's cheaper, but where do you see a better return on your investment? So you would just buy more silver or less gold with the same amount of investment? Gold or silver?
- [17:42]
Philip Patrick
It's a tough question. It's a good question. They're both being Driven by different things. I think silver is the more Undervalued of the two post 70s they traded a 55 to 1 average gold being 55 times silver's price. Even with the shoot up in silver, we're running at 82 to 1 today. So I think silver has a little more legs longer term. But gold is very important. I think longer term we're going to be dealing with a consistently weakening dollar. Gold is going to be that safety. But silver's the growth play. Cheap rising demand. AI chips need it. Solar technology, electric cars. Silver's that longer term growth play. Don't sleep on silver.
- [18:23]
Ben
Very quick, dumb question for you again. Trader and me. Do you get this Birch Gold, do you do anything in copper? Because I'm hearing all I'm hearing now is copper. Copper is the one that's going to really go anything is any big.
- [18:35]
Philip Patrick
Copper is an interesting one. It's really for paper markets. We at Birch specialize in physical. Copper's problematic to store physically. So we tend to deal with the physical tangible.
- [18:46]
Ben
You don't want those big spools of copper in warehouses at the Birch Gold, the back parking lot of Birch Gold. I guess I got that. I got a job. Phillip, always good. And congratulations on yet another massive move up in the gold price. Phil Patrick, everybody. Birch Gold Group. Alrighty. Democrats really don't like it when one of their own is caught committing an actual crime. In fact, the party that loves to love criminals thinks it's perfectly normal a okay to let them just rol roam the streets to keep breaking the law. Before she was indicted for committing her very own actual crime. Bank fraud to be specific. She once carried very cared very much about holding people to account for committing crimes. Lawfare Leticia, we're talking about once felt strongly about people cheating to get better loans and said that everybody in everyday Americans cannot lie to a bank to get a mortgage. Remember she said that? Something she apparently was doing herself at the same time. And of course, Letitia, we agree that there can't be different rules for different folks, right? Which is why this reaction to her own indictment strikes me as another strike check in the hypocrisy column. Am I right?
- [19:54]
Eric
This is nothing more than a continuation of the President's desperate weaponization of our justice system.
- [20:02]
Jillian Barberry
He is forcing federal law enforcement agencies.
- [20:05]
Eric
To do his bidding. All because I did my job as the New York State Attorney General.
- [20:13]
Jillian Barberry
These charges are baseless and the President's.
- [20:16]
Eric
Own public statements make clear that his.
- [20:19]
Jillian Barberry
Only goal is political retribution at any cost.
- [20:23]
Ben
Are you Kidding me? You ran. You ran to become the Attorney General of the State of New York, saying, I will get Donald Trump. That's what you ran on. And you tried and you failed, and you were breaking the law at the same time. These people cannot help themselves, can they? As expected, Dollar Store Obama came out and promised to answer this indictment with even more lawfare against Republicans once Democrats get back in power, he says, which likely may not happen as long as the president deports all the illegals that they were counting on to become leadership. There are so many different corrupt sycophants within the Trump administration, including, but not limited to within the Department Justice. Now, these people don't have immunity. And the reality is the statute of limitations is five years, and there will be accountability with the next administration, if not before, when Democrats take back control of the House of Representatives. Well, you're, you're, you're itching for it, Hakeem. You are asking for it. If you say that as soon as you guys take power, as soon as you get the House back, you're going to start going after Republicans. You got three, three years plus to deal with Trump. One way to react is with threats, of course, but always. And apparently another way the Democrat machine is reaching, and I should say reacting, I guess, is by having the media they own come out and make the crime to be some sort of no big deal at all. Nothing to see here, folks. So is CNN trying to say that everyone should go out and commit mortgage fraud to help Leticia? Just look, maybe a little, I don't know, normal aside for the.
- [21:57]
Eric
For a second.
- [21:58]
Ben
What?
- [21:58]
Eric
Tish James. And again, we're still getting the details, but if it's related to this mortgage issue, I mean, this is something that everyone in America, or many people, at least, if you're lucky enough to be able to buy a house in America, you deal with this, right? The federal government doesn't go after all of these people for doing this.
- [22:16]
Ben
So they did everything in their power to call mortgage fraud what Trump was did or allegedly did as mortgage fraud and to get him either bankrupted or thrown behind bars. Everything in their power. Power. They change laws, they try to make misdemeanors into felonies, and now when it's one of theirs. Nothing to see here, folks. Everyone kind of does it. They are such hypocrites. Shockingly, Casey Hunt's colleague, Anderson Cooper decided to point out the obvious truth, which is that, as we all have known, and I've heard her say countless times, Leticia James was a woman on a mission to get Donald Trump. Her lawfare wasn't just driven by a manic obsessed party that supported her. This was personal and she made sure everyone knew it. The system is not supposed to work, Jeff. I mean, according to PolitiFact, the day after she was elected in 2018, Letitia James was asked by a community activist if she was going to sue President Trump. And she replied, quote, oh, we're going to definitely sue him. We're going to be a real pain in the ass. He's going to know my name personally. I mean, that's not a great look for somebody who has just been elected or just been campaigning, who hasn't even looked, I guess, deeply at any evidence. Well, that's, you know, we live in a system where attorneys general and district attorneys in the United States, unlike almost any other country, are elected officials, are.
- [23:37]
Steve Bannon
Politicians, so they run for office, making political statements.
- [23:42]
Ben
That's how our system works. It's not pretty. I don't think it's a great system, but there's nothing uncommon about it. There you go. There you go. One more. How about this one? We told you earlier this week about the drama surrounding Democrat candidate Jay Jones, who's running for attorney general in Virginia. In a debate between the two candidates for governor of Virginia, Democrat Abigail Spanberger and Republican Winsome Sears, the moderator tried and tried again to get Spanberger to answer whether or not she will still endorse Jay Jones, who sent a colleague text message about putting bullets in the head of an opponent. Well, here's Spanberger.
- [24:19]
Eric
Ms. Spanberger, I understand what you're saying about the voters, but for you yourself, do you still continue to endorse Jay Jones? 15 seconds, yes or no? I. We are all running our individual races. I believe my opponent has said that about her lieutenant governor nominee and it encourages every person to make their own decision. I am running my race to serve Virginia, and that is what I am intend to do. Thank you. Ms. Spamberger, we just want to clarify, you know, what you're saying is that as of now, you still endorse Jay Jones as Attorney General. I'm saying as of now, it's up to every voter to make their own individual decision. I am running for governor. I am accountable for the words that I say, for the acts that I take, for the policies that I have put out. Thank you. I am responsible for the policies I put out and the work I will endeavor to do tirelessly for the people. Governor, Virginia. Thank you, Ms. Spamberger.
- [25:17]
Ben
So she couldn't say it because she's already said she's not not endorsing her Democrat friend for attorney general. Wow. Democrats. We'll be right back. This Saturday from 2 to 5pm Eastern, Real America's Voice brings you an exclusive special event. AMAC presents Boot Camp for Patriots.
- [25:38]
Jillian Barberry
Give me liberty or give me death.
- [25:41]
Ben
You're invited to a pivotal gathering of leaders, experts and patriots coming together at a time when America stands at a crossroads.
- [25:49]
Eric
But be out there fighting in that.
- [25:51]
Ben
Realm, education and indoctrination, election integrity and.
- [25:55]
Steve Bannon
More of the urgent issues that matter.
- [25:57]
Ben
Most to your family, your community and your country.
- [26:00]
Steve Bannon
More than a conference, it's a call to action.

Philip Patrick
Foreign.

Ben
Abigail Spamberger wants to be the Virginia governor who can't make up her mind about anything. Another hot topic in Virginia, men using women's bathrooms and playing in women's sports. Well, that came up in that same debate we just talked about. Spamberger, of course being a member of the party that doesn't believe in defining what a woman is is fine with violating women's safe spaces. Her Republican opponent Win some Sears has come out fiercely against that idea. Spamberger was asked the for the first time and deflected by saying that parents and schools should make the ultimate decision. Watch some more word salad as Bamberger sidesteps actually answering any questions at all.
- [27:09]
Eric
When she's asked to clarify continually by this administration.
- [27:14]
Ben
Once again, the question was should transgender girls who are biological males be allowed to use girls bathrooms and play on girls sports teams in K through 12? You have 15 seconds to clarify.
- [27:28]
Eric
In cases across Virginia, I think it's incumbent upon parents and educators and administrators in each local community to make decisions locally.
- [27:39]
Jillian Barberry
That's what this is about.
- [27:40]
Ben
Ms. Earl Sears.
- [27:41]
Eric
There should never be nude men in locker rooms. Goodness, we finally have her saying that.
- [27:46]
Ben
But you.
- [27:47]
Eric
You voted for that miserable Sears.
- [27:50]
Ben
You are just intruding on time. Are you going? This is Ms. Spanberger's time. I have a follow up question for Ms. Spanberger. Would you rescind the youngin administration policy requiring boys and girls to use bathrooms aligning with their biological sex? You have 30 seconds.
- [28:07]
Eric
My priority would be to ensure that local communities, importantly parents and teachers educators are able to Work together to meet the unique needs of each school and each community.
- [28:21]
Ben
She wants to be a governor, governor of a. Of a. Of a swing state, no less, an important state adjacent to Washington, D.C. and she can't ask. Answer a simple question. And this is what happens. And so because of the heavily influence of Democrats in the area, she'll probably get elected. Winsome Sears is a great. She's lieutenant governor right now under Youngkin, and she's great. She's a wonderful, I believe, is Marine. She's just absolute military person. Wonderful person. I would love to have seen her. But Democrats, they don't care what they're voting for, as we can see right there. Okay, let's do another one. Ben. Oh, hey. Got it. Jimmy Kimmel clearly has no remorse for having lied on the air about the shooter who murdered Charlie Kirk, the assassin. He was taken off the air for lying for a couple of days and he's put back on the air just a couple days later, despite telling a very dangerous lie about the shooter and being. What do you say? He said we was maga in the interview. This interview. He shows that he clearly has learned nothing because he felt like your initial.
- [29:18]
Steve Bannon
Comments had been mischaracterized.
- [29:21]
Ben
I didn't feel like it was. It was intentionally and I think maliciously mischaracterized. Yeah. Oh, it was unintentional. I accidentally said that Robinson, the shooter, the assassin that killed Charlie, I accidentally said he was maga, you know. You know, just kind of. It was there and it's like. Wasn't intentional. Sure. Jimmy Kimmel. How about one more? Finally, crybaby Adam Kinzinger is back making more cringy videos highlighting his Trump derangement syndrome. Remember, this is the guy, one of two Republicans that was on the panel picked to be on the panel to impeach Donald Trump twice in the first term. Twice. And they agreed to do that. It was him and. And Dick Cheney's daughter, Liz Cheney, whoever that's. I listened to this guy. Are you tired of seeing these everywhere? Like, I get it. We know what you think. Well, now you can tell people what you think and what you believe. It's very comfortable, maybe a little uncomfortable for them. So go to wear them out. Products dot com. Have a look at the selection and for once tell people what you think. So what's he doing? He was a congressman. Congressman from Illinois, if I'm not mistaken. He was all over the place. He was on cnn. Now what's he selling? Where. What. Where are they? What. What they wear. Ben, what Was. He was pitching baseball caps. Is that what he's doing now? I don't know, but it's kind of sad. Yeah, go. We'll go. Go broke. Ben, while we have. I just have a minute. It's Friday, right? We haven't done this in. In quite a while. Can I get the control room camera? These guys work hard. Sir, give me one moment. This crew works very hard to put this show every single day. So we kind of laugh and yuck, yuck, yuck. When. When Trump comes on and takes the whole show off from the Oval Office, which we know we got to do. We get that. But we do a lot of work to get this thing prepared for you. So let's get out. There's a control room. Who's in? I can't see through the glass windows here. Two levels. So I've been. Who we have. Just raise your hand. It's a Ben right here. We got MD next, our Mad Dog. Mad Dog MD Rashad on audio and Drew helping him out. Behind me, we got Prompter and Trish producing. There we go. That's the crew, folks. I mean, it takes, you know, it takes a village to put these shows together. So we just want to let you know that it's not. We just show up and slap something on the screen for you. A lot of work. These guys do a lot of work. And I will show you some of the other work that they do in the next block because we have Britt McHenry coming on. We're going to talk about a bunch of stuff. We'll have a lot of fun. All right, Benny, let's do this. We have. We have a little something about 250 years in. In one of the military branches. You want to do that? You want to roll that? Yes, sir. Stand by. We'll send it.

All right, Britt, you ready to go? You ready to go? I see you're at the front of the Supreme Court.
- [34:33]
Eric
I think so. We joked and break for everyone watching that, you know, they're going to do something that's nothing's going on in D.C. right now with the government shutdown. But maybe they will have their own opinions on their fantasy lineups. Maybe they play fantasy a big screen.
- [34:46]
Ben
Up on the, you know, right over there in front of the Supreme Court and just watch some football. That's cool. The guys have put together some really cool full screens and we call them full screens. They take up the whole screen. We can talk about very quickly. Throw, throw the college game up there first, Ben, if you don't mind. Indiana ranked 7 at the Oregon Ducks and I believe that that is a seven point Oregon favorite line right there. What do you think of this one?
- [35:12]
Eric
I'm going Oregon with this game. I'm still, Eric thriving a little bit. We discussed this last week on last weekend's battle of Florida between FSU and the University of Miami to see Florida State since I saw them in Charlottesville drop from 8th in the country to I believe 25th now, maybe lower. That was crazy. But I think, um, could take the national championship and for this I'm going Oregon. Just such a strong complete team for sure.
- [35:38]
Ben
I'm with you on that one also. Let's go to the pro last night. I'll be honest with you. I've said bet against the jets and Giants for years. I didn't see this one coming. Jackson Dart lit it up against the Philadelphia Eagles. I lost, you know, a good amount of money last night, but hey, this is what we do. I'm going to double down on Jets. Any thoughts on the. The. This kid's good. This, this Jackson guy is.
- [36:02]
Eric
He's got swagger. I like the. The combo when Jameis Winston does Eaton MW and Jackson gets in on it. That meme went viral. There's a lot of heat on Brian Dabel for visiting the injury tent. If you remember in that game when Jackson Dart was there. We'll see how the NFL fully regulates that.
- [36:20]
Ben
They're still not a fan of Dable. I said losing seasons. I just, I don't think I. For whatever reason, I just don't. He doesn't strike me as a guy. I'm getting.
- [36:29]
Eric
Not a huge fan of his either, but I really don't like. I'm not a fan of the Eagles, so them getting a loss is good for me. Like that.
- [36:37]
Ben
You like that?
- [36:37]
Eric
Yeah.
- [36:38]
Ben
Guys, let's throw some. Some of this week's games up there. They made some really cool full screens for this. So go ahead, throw it up there, Benny. It's a big game. Look at these two teams now. Look at Kansas City. They're not having a great season. Detroit's having a monster season. You have the odds there. Can you throw the odds up there? I can look with to see what this is. I think it's. There's only a couple of points. Oh, here is. Yeah, it's two and a half points. Chiefs are favored by two and a half at home. You know Taylor Swift up in the with the skybox acting like she's surprised every time her boyfriend catches a pass. You like that game? Which one you like?
- [37:15]
Eric
I'm taking the Lions. You will never see me though. I am biased. I'll never take the Chiefs.
- [37:19]
Jillian Barberry
I.
- [37:19]
Eric
Not this year. I think their magic run is over. Travis Kelce should focus on all the drops he has and yelling at Andy Reid on the sidelines, which we've consistently seen. The Lions talked about it this week with Dan Campbell, their head coach, saying, we have the swagger. We're going to go anywhere and bring it. They have a great defense and this is interesting. The Chiefs are.03 in the one score games that they've been facing. It's definitely a little bit of a hit. Still a strong team, but I'm taking the Lions.
- [37:45]
Ben
I like that game too, because I have to Bet against the Giants and the Jets. I am going to take The Broncos giving 7 1/2 at the New Jersey Jets Stadium. MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.
- [38:02]
Eric
Yeah. You know, God bless Sean Payton, the head coach of the Broncos. He said we're not looking at it as a trap game. I'm looking at it, Eric, like maybe the jets need to set up camp in London and stay there because it's still technically football that they're not used to seeing often there. It's tragic. 0 and 5. I really feel I grew up in AFC east fan. I feel for my friends that are jets fans because it's just injury after injury after injury. I couldn't even list them all. But yeah, Broncos by far.
- [38:30]
Ben
Put your money on. So upper right in the screen here. This is my lock of the week. Last week we went seven and three including the lock. We had Indy last week. I, I like Pittsburgh here. I like Pittsburgh at home. Given six to Cleveland coming in. Cleveland just is. It's besides itself. Can't figure out how to muster up a win.
- [38:47]
Eric
Yeah, well, I agree with you. I think I'm definitely liking the Steelers. I think the Bills too are going to bounce back emphatically over the Falcons. Falcons never should have had that dub against the Commanders, but the Commanders were dealing with injuries. The game I'm looking forward to, Eric, is on Monday. I. I will be there. I should just make a photo montage. Maybe we'll do that next week of like Where's Waldo? Where's Britt in the scene.
- [39:10]
Ben
So you go into the Chicago, the commander, the Redskins game.
- [39:14]
Eric
Yeah, and I was there last year when the Commanders barely won in seven seconds. Seven seconds with that Hail Mary touchdown. So Jaden Daniels all week's been asked about it. I got to give it to the kids.
- [39:25]
Ben
Wait, wait, you were there When Jaden throws the ball in the end zone last second, it goes through a couple of guys hands and the receiver sitting there and falls into his lap. You were there for that game.
- [39:35]
Eric
I was there. There were some beverages in front of me, Eric. Who knows if they were consumed if they were left there. I could feel. You could feel the stand shaking. And so I actually am still taking the Commanders, not because I'm a fan, but they have most of their wideouts. Deebo Samuels and Jaden Daniels are great and they have the best rushing game in the league right now against Chicago. That's 31st in the league against allowing the run. So that's a defense that they could do work in. And I will show you Photos and pictures. Maybe next Friday.
- [40:06]
Ben
You know, this is. That's a great. That's a great game. The Redskins. I keep almost calling them the Commanders and thank you very much.
- [40:13]
Eric
Everybody does here. It's okay.
- [40:15]
Ben
The Redskins, they. No, I'm doing it on purpose. I hate the fact they change and they got to change it for back. Just change the name back. Come on, come on. Go woke. Go broke. We figured that out. I like that one, too. The. But the. Atlanta's a good team. Atlanta is a better team than people give him credit for. Buffalo's playing lights out. I don't know.
- [40:35]
Eric
Yeah, they're.
- [40:37]
Ben
You've so far picked every favorite. I just want to tell you. I'm just wanting to know you picked a favorite so far.
- [40:42]
Eric
Can I say this because he's an elder millennial, too, and technically, when everyone says he's old. No, Joe Flacco is older than me. Joe Flacco will become the fourth QB to start for two teams within the same division since 1970. The man just keeps going. I do think he will be an infusion for Cincinnati. It's been pretty dire to watch without Joe Burrow, so I'm here for the great elders.
- [41:06]
Ben
Put that game up. You're actually going to say, look at the odds on this game. This is amazing. I don't think I've seen this in quite a while. Certainly not in the NFL. That Green Bay, upper right corner. So if you bet Green Bay, guys, you bet a hundred dollars. You have to bet 1300. $300 to win $100 if you bet Green Bay. Now flip it over to Cincinnati, which Brett was just talking about. If you bet $100 on Cincinnati, they only give you 700. So where's that other $600 vig spread? That's a massive vig spread. So that's a game that you want to be careful. I think you're getting. You're getting ripped off on both sides of that bet. But I don't know. 14 and a half points is a lot of NFL points. So you like Cincinnati in that game?
- [41:47]
Eric
I kind of. At the very least, to make it competitive with Joe Flacco. I just love his journey. So maybe I'm. I'm betting with my heart a little bit on that one, which I tell people never to do, but I think he will be interesting. And the other thing to watch I'm going to have an eye on is the Miami Dolphins with Mike McDaniel. I didn't realize this stat, Eric. He is 3 and 14 since he took over as head coach in 2022 against teams with winning records. They only have one win. If you've seen any of the video of this man, I covered him a lot when he was an assistant coach in Washington, Atlanta, Cleveland. He had so much swagger to start it out there, and now it's like he's coward walking in the hallways. There is no aura whatsoever. So I think it will continue to be pretty.
- [42:33]
Ben
Yeah, they lost Tyreek Hill. Yeah, they're hurting. And, and tua. I'm not sure who likes TUA anymore. Certainly South Florida is not.
- [42:41]
Eric
And listen to this. You may appreciate this for the Rams game, Matthew Stafford, he is only 50 yards away from surpassing Dan, the man who I grew up loving. Dan Marino.
- [42:52]
Ben
I gotta go. But one of the guys, one of the guys in fantasy football has. He has two quarterbacks. He's got, he's, he's got the Chargers quarterback and he's got the Green Bay love. Which one would you start here?
- [43:05]
Eric
Justin Herbert. I think they're going to be out for a lot of redemption after that, which was great.
- [43:10]
Ben
Mad Dog Justin Herbert from. From Britt McHenry. I was going to go. I said. I said go with love. But I, I defer mail if he doesn't perform. But we got to go. Have a great weekend. We'll watch a. And have fun at the command of the Redskins game on Monday night.
- [43:26]
Eric
Yes, I will. I'll post all about it to you.
- [43:28]
Ben
All right, folks, very quickly, here is another look at Jordan Belfort. When I asked him about all the things that went wrong in his life, did he have any regrets? Watch. You've owned your mistakes publicly. What's the hardest truth that you have to come to terms with? Yeah, I think that people lost money, right? Like, that sucks that people lost money. And I, you know, people say, oh, it's Wall street dating. You mentioned it in passing. And they were rich people. I mean, we did not. When I was at Stratton, there were no poor people. Now, I'm not saying that that makes it okay, but it's a lot less worse than calling a multi millionaire who loses a little bit of money. I also asked him about the movie. How close was the movie to his real life? And it's really fascinating. He says, exactly. And he wrote that. That screenplay just hit, open your phone, take a picture of that. Hit the yellow thing. When you open it up and you hit that QR code, there's a little yellow thing. You just press it. You're subscribed. Appreciate it. Love you. Thank You. You guys are amazing. We'll be back two and a half minutes. Look at this. How lucky are we? We have the one, the only Stephen K. Band. Stephen, before we just jump in here, but look at this. Look what we got here. We got a brand new spanking beautiful rev vest. And I'm going to put it on because I think I asked. I asked Sig if. If he can put. If he put it like a. I think a C. I think you could get the C as captain. And you know, in hockey, the. The captain wears the jersey. I'll take the A, which is the assistant. No, no, no, no.
- [45:11]
Steve Bannon
You're taking the C. You're taking the C. No, no, you're taking the C. Because if I take the C, that that means I'm responsible.
- [45:17]
Ben
Yeah, responsibility. That's why I said, I'll take the A, Mr. Sig. And he's like, all right, we'll give the seat of Bannon. You broke some news to me in the break. You got some big news happening.
- [45:27]
Steve Bannon
What Bolton tell us just in on msnbc right as we're coming on there. They've. And they've taken, I think, the first 30 or 45 minutes of. Was it Nicole Wallace's show, which is one of their biggest shows, as you know, Eric, because you pioneered making the 5 o' clock hour the new prime time.
- [45:48]
Ben
Right.
- [45:48]
Steve Bannon
Years ago.
- [45:48]
Ben
We did.
- [45:49]
Steve Bannon
Nicole Wallace is breaking Emmett and MSA exclusive that John Bolton is about to be indicted on. On multiple criminal charges.
- [45:58]
Ben
Yeah. And they just looked it up.
- [45:59]
Steve Bannon
So we're gonna.
- [46:01]
Ben
Mishandling. Mishandling of classified documents. You know, it's funny. Letitia James is crying. Trump is throwing lawfare at her. Retaliation. And all he's doing is he's bringing up the charges that she's actually guilty of that she tried to slap on Trump, and he's in the mishandling. They tried to nail Trump for the same thing, and now they're gonna. What are they. Let me. Let me guess. They're gonna say, oh, he didn't do it. But when Trump was Trump, he was a threat to democracy with what he did. It's amazing, aren't they?
- [46:32]
Steve Bannon
Well, Trump, President Trump had the ability to declassify. And plus, we don't know if they. What they really found versus what they planted Bolton, they found in his office. I mean, this is all about trying to monetize. Not just through his book. I think I've heard all kinds of things about his schedule. And he had a couple of partners. There's a lot of you know, not simply rumors, but people that are working on this you're hearing things from. I think Bolton's are very serious charges. I think John Bolton's going to go away for a long time.
- [47:00]
Ben
Well, you know the theory, you know, well deserved. He's one of the theory is right. He, he, he had this classified information then he cut deals to do certain amount of advising in foreign countries, he wrote books and whatnot and did he use any of what he knew that was supposed to be remain classified to cut deals and, and that would be highly illegal.
- [47:23]
Steve Bannon
Highly. Leo, I think that they've got the reason MSNBC is so worked up about this and they're, they're in more meltdown than Leticia James and they're more meltdown at Comey because I think you're getting closer to the heart of the beast. You know they got Weissman on there all the time. They real and Brennan's on there. These are paid contributors to msnbc. They realize if, if, if the Justice Department, the FBI can get Bolton on it looks like multiple charges on classified information and, or other things that, that this Justice Department FBI is very serious in pursuing this, Eric. And that the Brennan's of the world, the McCabes of the world, the Weissman's of the world are also obviously targets and they're going to get rolled up.
- [48:05]
Ben
Yeah, yeah. You and I have these conversations. Listen, I love everything Trump has done. He's made the country, he saved the country from sheer destruction from the left. Certain things I just don't get at times. And I don't understand why we would allow a Qatari Air Force, Qatari base in Idaho. Can you help me out with this?
- [48:28]
Steve Bannon
I don't know. I gave I think Newsweek a quote that no foreign power should have a military base on the sacred soul of America, full stop. I have no idea what's going on and I'm sure we'll find out more, but it just doesn't. I mean that with the Article 5 protection he gave to Qatar and I throw it back to this is part of the price we're paying for the Israel first crowd, the Tel Aviv Levins and others that had support for Netanyahu. This whole thing's so screwed up, President Trump had to step in. We now have the framework of a peace deal, the execution of course 200American troops from CENTCOM and probably Doha are going to kind of oversee part of this. But you've got Arab financing, you know, Gulf Emirate financing coupled with Turkey security and you have a two state solution. So I advocated today, and I think Qatar, the Article 5 protection, and maybe even this base as part of it, what they had to do to bring them along. That shows you the price we're paying for this blind following of the Israel first crowd. Now, I recommended today if there's a proto state being developed in Gaza, because the 2 million and I think that's what hit the tripwire of the Arab nations, besides the fact of the attack on Qatar, was the fact that they were going to dispossess 2 million Palestinians and send them God knows where because the Arab nations can't take them. That drove it. I think it's time. If you're going to have a two Egypt, if you're going to have a two state solution, let's have a three state solution. The Christians should have their own state in Levant.
