This is an iHeart podcast. Guaranteed Human. All righty folks, it's Thursday, 4pm Markets are closed, Broad and Wall, New York City. Let's take a quick look. Very interesting date today. I'm going to tell you man, we've been talking about this. One goes up, other one goes down, the other one goes up, the other one down. I'm talking about oil and all the equity markets. This morning we came in in oil was $4 a barrel lower and that was on the basis of a lot of traders are believing that that this negotiation is going to go through. Okay, about I don't know, I'm going to say 2, 1:30 or 2 o'. Clock. I take no, I'm sorry. It was 12 o'. Clock. I texted Ban and I said Steve, this is run running right across the the Bloomberg terminals, which Bloomberg is a very expensive news service, proprietary. So he sells this information, Michael Bloomberg, his company to various trade desks around the world including the oil producers and the refiners. And the headline said that it doesn't look like it doesn't look good in others it doesn't look good that this is going to be a peace settlement. According to CNN. And it goes on the Bloomberg oil is still $4 lower, $91 a barrel within maybe 20 minutes or so. I called Steve Beck. I said check this out, it's $96 a barrel. It jumped $5 a barrel. So these headlines are really kind of moving markets. Make a long story short, oil ends up about $2 higher on the day. But Dow Jones down because of 313s P down 28. Nasdaq down like a quarter of 1%. So it's not horrible. And as I saw you oil's up, you know, 96, 97 a barrel this afternoon. Brent is also up $102 a barrel. So you're seeing that fulcrum effect. One goes up, one goes down. And we're it's going to continue on this way as long as one side saying we're not going to give up. We have so many headlines in oil. We have a Navy, former Navy, Navy admiral, Vice Admiral. I'm not sure we was anyway we hear him coming out. We have Steve Bannon at the end of show. The headlines in the Middle east are coming out fast and furious. Did you know Saudi Arabia told us that we couldn't use their airspace? Saudi? Yeah, the same Saudi Arabia that we've basically sold all the technologies for them to protect themselves against Iran. They're already afraid of Iran attacking Saudi Arabia and their oil infrastructure. So we sell them all these things and we sell them at really good prices. And they tell us when this conflict happens, they're not going to let us use their air base. Why do you think that is, folks? You want to know why? Because they like $100 barrel of oil. They can tell us they want $60 barrel. They can pat Trump on the back and say, come on, let's get this thing open. But the truth is, they weren't helping us. None of them were helping us. And oil has been elevated today. They said, you know, maybe we'll help. So Saudi Arabia and Kuwait said, we will join this. Removing of, of the blockade and getting some vessels through the Strait of Hormuz. It's just no one knows what's going on. So you're going to see a lot of volatility going forward. We're going to break it all down in this show, though. All right, so let's talk about Medicare because a lot of folks aren't getting the full story. Most Medicare agents, you know, pick up the phone, you call them. They push Medicare Advantage plans even when they're not right for you. Why? Well, because that's where they make their money. It's right for them. But seniors are paying the price, not right for you. That's what makes chapter different. They walk you through original Medicare, Medigap, Medicare Advantage and Part D with the pros and cons all laid out so you can make the right call for your health needs. Donna said her chapter advisor walked her through every option and explained everything in a way she could actually understand. Plus, they saved her thousands of dollars. So if you're on Medicare now or will be soon, call this number. 843-MEDHELP. That's 8-43-M-E-D- H E L-P MEDHELP. To learn about enrollment options and find ways to save. It's free, it's quick, it's easy, and they can review your options in under 20 minutes. Most people wished they had called sooner. All right. Hey. Hey, Ben, you on the horn? You're on the voice of God, sir.
B
What's up?
A
Okay, well, I can't hear him. So do we have Oscar? We have Oscar. All right, let's do this. Guadalajara is a location where get guess what? The Jalisto or Jalisto New generation cartel has tortured and buried hundreds of human beings people. Our own RAV border correspondent Oscar L. Blue or else Azul Ramirez has been out with a group who dedicates their time to finding the remains. About this as a Private group dedicating their time to find the remains of those who've been killed in Mexico. Here to give us the details of our is our own RAV border correspondent, Oscar L. Blue Ramirez. So, Oscar, I want to do for you is I saw this video. It's, it's striking, folks. This is amazing. It's, it's horrendous. So I'll let you set up the video and will you walk us through it, Oscar? Take it away.
B
Yeah, we were. Thank you for the invitation, Eric. Yeah, we were at this place where they used to torture people. And then the backyard, they used to bury them. Hundreds of bodies. This is a torture house. And I mean, clearly made and structured by the organized crime in the cartel. They made it specifically with little rooms to torture people. And after that, they used to bury the bodies. You know, on the, and the back of the, of this, of this piece of land, we found a lot of bone fragments of human beings. Bone fragments of human beings. And after we were there digging in the collective group, this searcher group, around 10 people, the majority of them women. Two armed men arrived to tell us what are you guys doing here? You know, I know that you're searching for bodies. I think that it's getting a little bit late. He lifted his, his T shirt and he had a small gun right there, just basically telling us, get out of there. And good thing that we had security, our security approached them and said, we're getting out, but, you know, let's not make it a big conflict about it. These kind of areas. Jalisco has become the epicenter of missing people and finding human bags and human remains along the continent. It is the biggest place that the Carter Jalisco new generation has been completely dismembering this, dismantling bodies and putting them in human remains. Just one minute away. This is going to be put out on a mini documentary that we're going to show on Real America's Voice Use. One minute away from the Akram Stadium in Alisco that is going to be the host of the FIFA World cup, they found 169 bags of human remains. And 10 minutes away from there, another site that it found 179 bags of human remains. Eric. And this play that they found 179 bags. We were going to go there, but they told us that there was a 90% chance of possibility that, that we will not get out of there alive.
A
Oscar, we talk. You. You toured El Metro, the, the former cartel, cartel boss's compound just I guess, days after he was I guess assassinated, right? He's murdered. And. And you were picking up bullets, picking up shell casings. And this son somehow, who was I believe going to school in California at the time, or was educated in California, ran over to Mexico and took over the cartel. Did I hear that he may have now been either captured or killed? What's the latest on mini El Mencho?
B
Well, it is not even about the son of El Mencho that it was going to be now the new successor. There was another guy that just recently got captured and we were two hours away when we just arrived in Jalisco. Elias Flores, better known as the Gardener. El Cardinero was captured in a mission, in a mission that it was executed perfectly by the Mexican government. He was captured and now they had 5 million doll his bounty. The United States government asking for $5 million for his capture. Now that he has been captured, let's see if he's going to be immediately extradited to the United States of America. Now another thing, let us point and let us say this mission was perfectly done. And it could have been not done as perfect that it was this mission without the American intelligence, that in the former mission that it was done to capture Nemesio Seguera Cervantes El Mencho, 25 National Guardsmen were lost. But that intelligence was given out by the American government. And you know, the secretary of defense, Mr. Trevilla came out on a press conference and said to the country of Mexico, we could not achieve this if it was for American intelligence. So of course, absolutely. Every mission that is being now executed to get these big time, you know, narco leaders, it is because of the American intelligence that is being provided to the Mexican government.
A
You know, El Jardino, right? El Jardino, Am I saying it right? The gardener. My first thought is was he named the gardener because as you're seeing you're digging up a lot of bodies. Was it was bodies, was he planting things like, you know, remains or is that for. I've also heard stories where they named him that because he made things grow like the size of the cartel.
B
Well, the human remains after they be in the. Being put on, on a mass grave. You know, our, our, you know, our, you know, the human becomes sand and it becomes dirt. And again, you know, it just raises all these flowers and all these things that they're. It's just, it's really difficult to explain. But the gardener, it was basically that put that name because he used to use the bodies and put them on the back of his backyard. So this is not a guy that you can, you know. Absolutely.
A
I hate to interrupt, but how in the hell has this gone on? I mean, he's hanging dead bodies in his residence to ward off, I guess, people who may have eyes on the prize, so to speak, but the Mexican government just is what's, what's the humanitarian situation in Mexico, at least these parts
B
of, of Mexico, it's completely inhuman. Since 2006 to 2026, 130000 people have gone missing. The president of Mexico came out on a morning conference, said that 17,500 people in a year and six months have gone missing. We interviewed people from the search group in Jalisco and they, every single one of us told us no, that's the number of only Jalisco. 17,000 people have been gone missing in Jalisco. You find all these bags of human remains. One of the places that, you know, one of the collective groups that it was there we interviewed that is going to be put out on the mini documentary of the extermination camp that it was recently found in Jalisco where they found hundreds of hundreds of shoes, hundreds of clothing, of debris, clothing, and they found these ovens that they used to put people to burn. This is absolutely, completely human. And it is clearly that the government that is involved. Eric.
A
Oscar, I, I, I, I'm literally looking up and it's called the list of politicians. Not even the 17, 000 people that have been killed in, in what is it, a year and a half since Sheinbaum took over, which is more than the last six years of the prior president of Mexico. There's a list of politicians that have been murdered under her watch and it's quite extensive. It doesn't seem like a popular job to work for the Mexican government these days.
B
No. And just what recently has been done? And nobody has, as I have said before, nobody has ever done this in history. The Trump administration exposing Bernie politicians. Rocha Moya, the governor from Kulakan, just recently got exposed that he had close ties and links to the organized crime at Cartel de Sinaloa. And immediately after he was signalized, he put down his position. And now the mayor of also followed up with him and said, you know what? I cannot handle this job anymore. I'm quitting. So it clearly, all these dirty politicians, they're being involved, they were being paid by the organized crime to do these atrocious acts. Why? Because if there is no body, there's no evidence, Eric. And they found out that they can use that also the Recruitment of minors. All these bodies that are being found, they're 17, 18, 19, 20, 23 year old kids that they recruit the organized crime and they force them to do sicario work, they force them to assassinate, they force them to kidnap, they force them to torture. And then after, when they don't need them, they bury them. And these mass graves and it says completely inhuman. And the mini documentary you're going to see that we're going to a house that they got all these Santa Muerte shrines, that is the holy death. And we find a decomposed, you know, buried body, buried body on the back of this house. It is just incompletely inhuman. The crimes against humanity that are happening in Mexico are aggravating. But the most aggravating thing, Eric, it is the lies of the president that is clearly saying to the Trump administration, we got everything under control. And everything that she's saying to the FIFA World cup, oh yeah, we're going to host it, don't worry about it. Just one minute away from Akram Stadium that is going to be holding a lot of worldwide matches. One minute away, you have a, you know, an empty parking lot where they found 169 bags of human remains.
A
Eric, it sounds like, Oscar, we're going to let you go. It sounds like when mayorkas told us that the border borders under control, the border is secure. When we were having millions upon millions of illegals flighting into America or when every single Democrat and Democrat shill in the media across all platforms said that Joe Biden was completely cognitively okay. He was, in fact, Joe Scarborough said he was beyond cogent. He was super cogent. And they were all lying. Oscar, as always, please be safe. There's a very dangerous folks, Oscar's doing like in serious, serious reporting in extremely dangerous terrain. Oscar, please be safe, you and your family.
B
Thank you so much, Eric, for the invitation.
A
All right, folks, folks, take a look at this. This is the Edge. A new show just dropped today. We dig into this new phenomenon like these cars. New cars are becoming so technologically advanced, they're now checking to see if you're paying attention, if your eyes or if you're blinking too many times or if your hands aren't in proper positions. And the problem is they're gathering more and more intel about you. The driver sounds okay. Sounds like, oh, they're gonna mask it in. Don't worry, we're gonna save lives if we just in continual increases technology into the cars. The problem is what are they going to do with that information? Are they going to sell it to third parties and kind of figure out who you are to sell you stuff. I even think that's the worst part of it. It's when they start reporting to the government or reporting to law enforcement that you were distracted driving. Do you understand the legal and personal liberty implications of this? Well, the Edge is going to go through all that. Just go to Eric Bowling the Edge. Eric Bowling the edge only on YouTube right now. We'll expand later.

All right. Next guest is our own real America's Voice chief White House correspondent who is some big news to share. Always happy to have Brian Glenn on. And I'm not going to call it big. I'm going to call it, let's call it a little bit sad, a little bit happy. But Brian, share with us what's happening in your world.
C
Yeah. Good afternoon, Eric. It's a little bit of sad and it's a little bit of happy as well as this has been really the only life I've known, you know, chasing the news, being in front of the camera a lot of times behind the camera and especially in the last seven, eight years following President Trump, being kind of the, the MAGA mouthpiece, if you will, for the Trump America first agenda. But this past Sunday, sitting at home in Georgia, I decided that it's time to, and I'll use a MMA reference. It's time to leave the gloves in the ring and walk away from what I really consider. It's been a great career. It's been a great time with Real America's Voice. It's been fantastic working with you. I started this thing back in 1989, Eric, and my very first gig, believe it or not, was to put on a peacock outfit for Merv Griffin at a promotion that we had for all of the game shows that he is a mastermind behind. And to think that I'm just keep an eye on Tom Holman, by the way. And to think that at, you know, you fast forward how many years that is later that I would stand here in front of the White House and 37 Trump like I've been doing. Yeah, 37 years. Thank you. It's been amazing and I've witnessed some great moments in MAGA history. I've been, I can't even count, Eric, the number of rallies. Hundreds, without a doubt, hundreds and hundreds of events, non rallies, court cases. After the 2020 election when there were so many discrepancies, I'm proud to say that I was probably the first, you know, MAGA conservative reporter that really followed the 2020 election.
A
I would like to talk to you about that before that, but it was right around there. I, I remember running into you all the time. I was at Fox first and then, then I was at Sinclair, which is a conglomerate of local stations. And I remember bumping into you on, you know, whether it's a debate or an election or whatnot. And I just remember that guy, you know, I just waved here. Never really met you until I came to Real America's Voice. So that's my experience with Brian. I find you extremely professional. I think some of your questions have been outstanding in the White House, in the Oval Office, especially to Zelensky. You will always affectionately known as the guy who asked Zelensky why the hell doesn't he wear a suit? And the Oval Office and JD Vance just, you know, you guys pounded him for that. But so Brian, so I have to ask you, listen, I know how these things Work people move on. What's next? And you tell us what you're. What you tell us. Answer that question, Brian. What's next?
C
Yeah, well, what's next? And I want to clear something up, and I want to make sure that everyone at Real America's Voice understands this. And everybody, the competitors up and down here. I have no plans to go jump into a competitor. That's not what I'm going to do. I'm going to take some time off. I'm going to kind of relax, get my health back to where it needs to be, reconnect with some of these relationships with my family that I have neglected over the last seven, eight years and, and really kind of enjoy life a little bit. And of course, Marjorie and I planning a wedding likely before the end of the, of the year. That's a little bit of breaking news on here as well. Focus on that, but really focus on each other. And I think that this, this campaign can be grueling. It can really kind of drain the life out of a lot of people. And I'm 56 years old. I'm not a young kid anymore. It's hard for me. Right now. And just make it about family, make it about my health, and then we'll go forward from there. But I don't have plans. I'm not jumping over to another network. You're not going to see me popping up on somebody else's screen anytime soon. And I just got to say, Eric, and you know this because you, you working with those folks and you have the pleasure to be down in West Palm, and I want our viewers to understand this for a second. The people of Real America's Voice, they are just not the owners of a conservative news outlet that love this country. They genuinely love their employees. They are one of the best companies. They are the best company that I've ever worked for. And I've been very clear on, I work for, just like you, some of the biggest companies that owns, you know, stations in the ground. I've been fired by my good share of stations for standing up for President Trump. The very last straw was on the COVID lockdowns. I got fired from a company. I'm going to remain nameless in who they were because I spoke out about the lockdowns and because I spoke out on my support for President Trump. So me speaking out on the truth ended me up right here where I stand in front of the White House. And I'll never, ever feel bad for doing that. I fell forward, if you will. I fell forward and it. And that led to my success here. But people at Real America's Voice is the best in the business.
A
If, if I may, she said, you're leaving the gloves in the ring, but you're not hanging them up. I noticed. I don't know if you meant to make that metaphor that way, but it certainly would tell me you're a great reporter, Brian. I mean, you still got the juice, as they say. I just don't think it's over for you. I'm sad to see you go. How about, you know, if you decide to come back and maybe come back here, what's your advice now? I got two. Okay. But I want, I want to get these two in. We're going to come up against a break, but I want to hold. Guys, I want to hold them for just a couple of seconds. The two you can answer to the gloves in the ring. If you're going to pick them back up here or elsewhere. What's your advice? You've seen MAGA change as I have. I was original gangster MAGA when it was really unpopular. Fox News, and, and I literally left news hacks because they wouldn't let me be as pro Trump and as pro conservative. They wouldn't let me be against vaccines. They wouldn't let me be against funding Ukraine. And I, I said, either you let me do that or not. And I had to leave for that. So I know those feelings of leaving places. But what's your advice to the evolution of maga, Brian? You're at the center of it right now. Mtg, you know, maga, MAGA now not. So where. What's your advice to maga?
C
Well, I, you know, that, that phrase that we've all got to come together, that usually that's a phrase that we hear from Democrats in the left, but I genuinely feel like as far as the America first movement, and I know it has shifted a little bit maga, MAGA got a little bit fractured. Some people called it miga, some people called it. There is no more maga. It's America First. However you want to phrase it. If you love this country and you want what's best for this country, then you have to hold those accountable that we all elect into office. We have to hold them to their campaign promises. And that's just, I'm not just referring to President Trump, obviously, that's no reference to that. That is the entire Republican Party that we must get under that big tent. We say we have talk about our differences, talk about where we disagree with one another, but move Forward. But if you stay home, and I know this is a broken record, Eric, but if you stay home and you're just pissed off at the Republican Party for whatever reason, whatever thing did not happen in this current administration, then I can promise you things will get worse. Go look at New York City, go look at California. That will be the future of this country. So my message to MAGA is to, you got to stay in the camp. You got to support this country. I said this before, I said this eight years ago. MAGA is a mindset. It is a philosophy of political policy. It's not about a man. It's about a mindset of putting America first that will live on way long before anybody with the last name Trump is in the White House.
A
I got some high heat to throw at you, all right? I'm on the mountain. I'm going to throw you. I'm going to throw you 98 mile fastball right down the middle and maybe you knock it out of the park or maybe you take it or maybe just. Or you bun. MTG has been rumored to want to run for president. If she does, what would you say? What do you think? What do you know? That she would run as a Republican, Democrat or other independent, Libertarian, other. What are your thoughts?
C
Yeah, that's a fair question. I know a lot of people have been speculated on any type of 2028 run. Now if she was standing here right now, she said, eric Bolling, shut your mouth. I'm not running for anything. I don't have any plans to for anything. And that may be the solid truth, but she is a fighter like someone I've absolutely never met before. So let's just, let's just pretend like she decides to run in 2028. I think wearing a team jersey now of, of Republican or Democrat. I think for the most part though day, those days are gone. I could see her taking off the jersey and just standing up for America. Now what does that look like? Because we know it's very difficult for the path. If you were to run for an independent to get on the ballot in a lot of states, it would be very difficult thing to do. I will say this. She got into politics from the very beginning, Eric. Not to defeat the Democrats, not to defeat the liberals, change the Republican Party, support Trump.
A
That's why I'll never forget. That's exactly why people to yes to maga Trump. Well, I want to leave it there. I just, Brian, I just want, you know, the, the chat is literally lighting up. They, they, you know, some information but Most of them are. He's a great, he's a people's reporter. He's a great reporter. Including our chat moderator who says make Rab mod. Make sure he, you tell him I really appreciate his reporting. Brian Glenn, we're going to miss you, brother. We're going to miss you. But we'll stay in touch and maybe bring you on. You can come on as a guest, can't you? Right. There we go.
C
I, I told, I told the Zen master if you. I am always available to fill in for anybody. My heart is with the people at Real America's Voice and, and all the viewers. And so I would thank you for over the, you know, last several years for bringing me in your home. Thank you guys. I appreciate it.
A
God bless you. Thank you for announcing this on the bowling show. Thank you, Brian. We'll see you, we'll see you around the shop. As they say, folks, we'll be back. Two and a half minutes. All right, our next guest says Americans can take real action against corruption, radicalization and moral decay to save America from the demise of the leftist agenda. He lays it all out in his new book what you can do about it. He's also the host of the Rob Mainus show on World view tube network. Happy to have retired U. S. Air Force Colonel Robert Mainus with us. He's joining us. Thank you so much for being here, Colonel. We're going to get to your book in just a minute, but I, I want to bring the folks up to, up to speed with the straight of hormones. The top of the show we talked about the Saudis who had been restricting their air base and their, and frankly their military bases from US troops on the, on their soil have now decided they're going to change their mind as well as Kuwait. These are two countries who can thank us. Kuwait, we know what we did in Desert Storm. And the Saudis, we know what we do for them every single day when we sell them. Top of the line US Technology, defense, airplanes, bombs, everything. And they were restricting our, our access to their air base. Your thoughts are on, on how that's evolved and the fact that they were blocking us out as well as Spain and UK as well. Tell us.
D
Well, it's typical of the Arab nations on the Saudi peninsula, especially in the, on the Gulf coast there to try to restrict American forces from attacking places that are their own enemies too. The Iranians are the enemies of Saudi Arabia as much as they're the enemies of US And Kuwait owes us big time. So they haven't been really very good allies. It's good news that they've released these restrictions, but I don't know if you noticed or not, but now the UAE has gotten into the action and they've attacked the Iranians because the Iranians keep attacking them. This is not just about the United States or even Israel. This is about the Iranian organization of the irgc, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, completely controlling this country, regardless of what you hear out of the political side. Eric. And the President is exactly right to keep up the economic and the military pressure on these people because they will not cave in readily. And that's what needs to happen, because the bottom line is we have to get our hands on the enriched uranium. These fanatics can never have a nuclear weapon because they've proven they'll use it.
A
Colonel, do we have an ally in the Middle East? I mean, we keep hearing of our Middle east allies. I say BS to that. We don't have a Middle east ally. Some are saying, oh, Saudi Arabia, our allies wouldn't let us land on, on their airstrips. Qatar, Qatar, however you want to pronounce it. I say Qatar. If the, the, the country that housed the upper levels of Hamas and Hezbollah were hanging out in Qatar, keeping them away from the US And Israeli people looking for them, how are these people are allies and do we really have one, sir?
D
Look, the Arabs and the Muslims especially are not the standard westernized type of ally that you can think of. In the same vein as we used to think of our NATO allies or the allies in World War II. They just don't operate that way culturally or politically. They take advantage of the situation if it presents itself and it's in their objectives. They'll be an ally to us. But if it goes against what they see as their strategic objectives or their relationship with their population, you can expect they're going to go against us. That's why you see Qatar. Look, I flew combat missions out of Qatar and commanded a squadron flying out of there for months. And at the same time, they're hosting the leaders of Hamas, the leaders of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, the leaders of Hezbollah. They're living there and they're hosting these people. So you can't think of them as traditional allies. You have to remember that. And I think this, this president and his team know that very, very well. And that gives us an advantage in getting this conflict to a positive completion, but a completion on our terms. And believe me, no matter what they're saying out of their political arms, it's all about the IRGC fanatics. And only thing they understand is power and force economically, militarily.
A
And Connecticut only about a minute or so. So I want to talk to you a little bit about the book. What you can do about. Tell us what you, what it is, what you wrote. And by the way, folks, if you're wondering why Colonel wrote a book about politics, he ran for Congress. He knows how the sausage is made in the swamp. So tell us, sir, what, what you can do about. Why did you write this book? What does it tell us?
D
Ever since I ran for US Senate in 2014 against Bill Cassidy and Mary Landrieu, people have been bugging me about writing a biography. But I didn't want to just write a straight biography, Eric. I wanted to leave something for the American people. Not just Republicans, but the American people that still love this country and believe in things like the Declaration of Independence. And I wanted to leave them a framework of what I've learned over time on how to organize, how to raise money, and how to do the most important thing with those things is take action. The perfect example is what just happened in Indiana. That was a group of young Americans that still believe in this country that said, we've got a problem. What can we do about it? What can you do about it? And the book answers that question. You got to out organize the left. You got to out fundraise the left. And finally you, you have to take positive action. You got to do everything you can to get the people with political power on your side to take that action with you.
A
So if they don't, you hold them accountable. We got to go Save America Act. How important is that for Republicans to get that thing passed over the goal line?
D
It's critically important, and we need to use this concept to continue to put pressure on Thune and all of those yahoos up there on the Republican side that are not doing what, what the American people at over 80% are demanding of it. And that goes for the Democrats, too. We've got to hold them accountable. Read my book. You can see how I believe.
A
Colonel. You call them yahoos. I call them swamp creatures. They're. They're two of the same breed. We'll leave it right there. Colonel Rob Manus, thank you so much for your time. Good luck with the book, sir. Thanks, Eric, and thank you for our freedom and your service. We'll be back two and a half minutes. Something like special be coming up late in the show.

folks, that is Deepak, and that song is Let the Freedom Ring. Deepak. This. This is part of real America's music, folks. These songs are amazing. They're running up charts. That song is coming out. Interesting. What date is that song coming out?
G
It's dropping on July 3rd, right before July 4th, Independence Day. And every year for over 20 years, since I was a kid, I've read the Declaration of Independence out loud with a group of people. So it's really exciting for me to celebrate that day. It's a really special day.
A
Real America's. Real America's music, part of real America's voice. Folks, that's Deepak. He's gonna sing us out after this little thing we do here we call Rapid reaction. Stay right there, will you, brother?
C
Sounds good, buddy.
A
All right. California race for governor is like a microcosm of just how twisted and far gone the Democrat party has become. Have they learned anything? Well, no, not at all. They're still consumed by all their hatred for everything that Trump touches. Everything about Trump. Trump derangement syndrome. They love illegal migrants so much, they can't see straight. There is woke as Marxist, as delusional, and as Violent as they ever have been in history. Maybe even more so if you can't believe it. And you don't have to take my word for it because we have a bunch of stuff for you to listen to. Just listen to these people on that stage on Tuesday, crazed and unapologetic about how much they hate America and our citizens. And even after that slicked back globalist China boy ran California into the ground for so many years, that state's voters will wake up on election day and choose violence because the destruction of their state is all they know. Like this. They all know there's been and continues to be a mass exodus from California because it had to be taxes and the regulations. They go to Texas and they come here to Florida. So what's Katie Porter, who's running for mayor of la, What's. Oh, actually I think she's running for governor. That's right. I'm sorry, the higher office. Katie Porter, what's her answer? Well, more taxes.
H
Watch, all taxes should be progressive and I think that is a core principle. And families get this when they get a bonus. When they earn a little more, they trip up into a different tax bracket and they have to pay more. That's all I'm suggesting we do for corporations. And by the way, not only would that say to the corporation that has a banner year and makes a billion dollars, you pay not the same rate, maybe you pay a tiny bit higher rate.
A
Oh yeah, we have a, we have a, we're overspending our budget by billions every year. But let's just raise taxes. I mean you have the highest taxes, highest property taxes, highest state income taxes, highest gasoline taxes. But raising more because you can't figure out how to balance a budget or at least not lose so much money. What was once one of the major issues for Americans as they went to vote in 2024. Remember this. Immigration was cities and states eating away at their budgets and resources in favor of illegal invaders. So naturally, billionaire Tom Steyer, he says that California's taxpayers should pay for health care coverage. Not for citizens, of course, but also for illegal invaders.
E
On the question of health care for
A
the undocumented, I said restore.
C
I said everybody in California you would
A
has a right to health care. And let's, let's how this one you should fund.
C
The truth of the matter is immigrants built this state. Immigrants make this state run legal.
A
The fact of the matter is we
C
had a broken immigration system and now
A
you want to victimize the people who
C
are working here and, and making the state run. Thank you, as Antonio said, try and
A
get rid of them. You can't do it. Let's.
E
Let's go to.
A
Oh, I don't know. Maybe. No maybe. Tom, you fought the bill yourself for sex change operations for illegals. Tom's worth about $2 billion after all. Typical hypocrisy of the left. Another example of a Democrat rewrite. You know, like calling pedophiles minor, attractive persons. There were maps they wanted to call maps because they would be offensive to pedophiles. Are calling illegal aliens. The legal term from. Is actually illegal aliens. Well, changing illegal aliens to undocumented migrants. Now. They want you to believe that fraud is just political theater.
H
Fraud is real. It happens. Government waste, mismanagement, failure to have audits, failure to implement government recommendations. That's why I chose to serve on the Oversight Committee and hold Democratic leadership and Republican leadership, Trump and Biden, to account for those programs. But there's nothing special about Californians. That is political theater. Coming from James.
A
Political theater, I'd say, I don't know, maybe throwing scalding hot potatoes at your husband's head. Remember, she did that. Meanwhile, Katie Porter's temperament continues to haunt her, as she can be as defensive as she wants to be, but her past and present speak volumes no matter how hard she tries. These kids should love these clips of Katie Porter just recently.
H
I can't believe that on a stage with 30 minutes of interrupting and bickering and name calling and shouting and disrespect for everyone up here who's stepping into public service that anyone wants to talk about my temperament.
A
You were actually interrupting them, too.
B
I don't know why you want to
A
act like you weren't.
B
Oh, Cowboy Steve and I sat here
A
smiling at each other because we're just watching you all prove to everyone why they can't vote for a Democrat. I tell you what, get out the popcorn, folks, because that California governor's race is getting really, really fun to watch. All right, folks, let's do this. Let's go back to Deepak. Deepak, you got another song coming out even sooner. Together We Rise. Tell us quickly what it is.
G
It's a unity anthem that was written originally to bring people together. We sung it at the inauguration, Independent National Congress convention, Mar a Lago, lots of other events, and it's really about, you know, bridging the divide and fighting against the polarization that's happening that's being mass manipulated from indoctrination and the talking heads of the media.
A
And Deepak, by the way, folks, sang the national anthem for the unveiling of the brand new Trump 15 foot statue at Doral. Trump. Doral. Yesterday. Yesterday.
G
That was yesterday.
A
I take it away, my friend.
F
Rise up from the ashes? Rise up from the flames? Standing in the wreckage? Watching everything we made? Come out from the shadows Come out in plain sight Nothing to lose? It's time to move into the light? Together united? Deny it or fight it no more hiding anymore? Our story we write it or lose it? We can't keep quiet anymore? Cause together we will rise up? Together we will rise up? Together we will rise and wait any longer? It's our time, yeah? Cause it's our time Together we will rise up Together we will rise up? Together we will rise. Can't wait any longer? It's our time, yeah. Cause it's our time.

You know, I was thinking all day, like, you know, there's so many news stories going back before I told you about the top of the show. News stories going back and forth out of the Middle east, convoys this, blockades that, acceptance denials. We really should have a guy named Stephen K. Bannon. Dan would be so good to help us break this all down. Oh, what do you know? We have that man right there. Stephen. I'll tell the folks right now. During the day. I was. We were on the war room this morning talking about the latest A little after the war room. Right towards the end of the war room, there was a. There's a big change. So all morning long we heard the Saudis were going to let. And the Kuwaitis were going to let the U. S. Use their air bases. All of a sudden they had a change of heart. Saudis believed, expected a breakthrough in negotiations. Oil is down four or five dollars a barrel. Down to around $90 a barrel. Steve, that headline came across and again, these Bloomberg terminals I talk about, they're. They're expensive. They're $40,000 per terminal. So if a company has 100 terminals, they're paying a billion, $4 million for. For a month for this stuff. So it's the headline was Iran rejected the plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz unless they got reparations. Oil went from 90 to 96 in a minute, Stephen. How are people supposed to. And by the way, so gas prices will. Will continue. Elevated your thoughts on all this nonsense back and forth.
I
Well, you're in the fog of war right now. I mean, at least our allies, I think got the memo that it's vitally important to everybody to, if we want to wrap this thing up, is to show that we can open the Strait of Hormuz and the Persian Gulf and start moving vessels out of there. I mean, it's still outrageous to me that they would, they would do such an open ploy to keep the price of oil up and then on again on the Iranians, I think, and I don't want people to be disappointed. But this one sheet, that it's going to have like 20 demands or 20 agreement's going to lead in 30 days. It's contingent upon 30 days, a long deal. I don't think people are holding their breath for the simple reason you sent me the flash off of the terminal. And they're asking now for. They're saying what, what the President's suggesting. This is without returning to one pager. He's saying it's totally unacceptable, that they need to have reparations, they need to be made whole before they even consider opening the straight or Hormuz. And, and then there's still got to be some tolling fee on it. So there's a lot of back and forth. I'm sure President Trump is using all of his negotiating power and our military powers leverage to try to bring this thing to fruition. But folks should understand it's a very tough negotiation. Looks like.
A
So on war this morning we were talking about, first of all, as of can you do a split screen with Steve and me on both sides of that full screen? Ben, I don't know if you can do it, but we'd love to see that full screen in between us because I want to see Steve. Well, not the. Yeah, do the one with the full screen of the first one I sent you guys and this. Steve, this morning you asked me how many vessels transited the Gulf in the last, in the straight of hormones in the last 24 hours and I told you there were exactly zero this morning. I wore them well, lo and behold. Do we have that? I can't see if that's it. 3. I'm sorry, two, two vessels since war room 11. I was on at 10:30, 10 o' clock and yeah, till now, 4 o', clock, six hours. Two vessels have transit the Gulf. And there are other numbers in there that are very, very concerning. 5, 6, 700 increase in the war premiums for, for tankers running through the Gulf. I mean the, the, it's mind boggling how much they're charging. People say, oh, it's $2 to, to pay the, the gypsies. No, it's not $2. It comes almost $20 a barrel when you Add all this stuff up.
I
Well, also the, the deep states leaking on President Trump. You've got unnamed CIA sources saying that one third of the missiles are still there, they're buried. That they can outlast us. I think they said they can outlaw us, outlast us both in the Project Freedom operation in the Strait of Hormuz and Persian Gulf and still outlast us in the, in the main target of, of epic fury. So you can see the deep states now trying to throw in our allies are enough to keep in line. So President Trump's got his hands full. We'll see. This is going to develop over the next couple of days, I'm sure. But President Trump's got his hands full on this.
A
So one of the things Steven K. Band and I disagree on is whether the blockade should be lifted or not, quickly or slowly. We've talked about this ad nauseum. Pull up the other full screen, Ben, if you don't mind. And this was, I think, Steve, I think this is the most, forget the numbers for a minute. I believe this is the most important chart or information we can get. And again, I get this directly from traders. Proprietarily, I can't say who they are, who they work for, because they shouldn't be sharing with me, but they're kind enough because I, I've worked with them for 35 years. This heat index, there's a heat index towards the bottom of that screen right now. And it shows the countries that are critical as far as the, this oil not coming through, their economies are, are being critically damaged by, by lack of oil. Japan, South Korea high, which is one level under critical. China, India and the eu. What are we in a rush for? If, if their economies are going to get smoked because they don't get the oil, why lift the blockade?
I
I, I agree with you. I think the Chinese, I think my, my concern there is China, China's not at the top of the high risk, you know, getting ready for this, for this meeting next week. And of course, the good news that came out of today, folks, as people know, I was in the mumble tank, you know, being for, I was whining, right. Cause Lula was in the Oval. He had come, he was gonna have a big meeting. Of course, Luda, Lula's xi's partner in South America. But it turns out President Trump canceled the media going in. I think the meeting lasted two and a half or three hours. Eric and Lula left without at least initial reports, left without meeting any press and kind of, I think left in a huff. So I, I hope that there were some harsh words said in that meeting particularly about the CCP next week But I think your heat map goes to I don't know why China is not the top of that.
A
You know South Korea see they had that 1.2 billion barrel as strategic petroleum reserve that they're. They're trying.
I
I got that but I'm also, I'm also not sure how much is we're letting through. It's still very ill define exactly what we're letting through in agreement with them to make sure that the CCP economy doesn't crash. I would love to have. I would love to have it that it was we weren't let anything through. That would be fantastic. Then I'd say keep the blockade in perpetuity until you bring them to their knees. So I do believe that the way to make this deal is in Beijing and you do it with the CCP because President Trump, it looks like we're getting a run around right now. It just looks to me and President Trump is big on no games.
A
I know you got your show right now.
