Main Discussion & Themes

1. New York City Aftermath: "Jihadist Islamic Hellhole"

• Opening Rant (03:12–05:00)

  • Mike describes New York City as having "descended into a jihadist Islamic hellhole," blaming liberal city leadership for an alleged breakdown of law and order.
  • Judge's ruling blocks National Guard deployment to cities like Portland at Trump’s request.
  • A recurring criticism: “Liberal white women voted their own safety away.” (05:10)

• Critique of Urban Progressive Activism (06:51–08:26)

  • Coverage of community whistle campaigns in Chicago alerting illegal immigrants to ICE presence.
    • “Now liberals are blowing whistles to prevent the rapists from getting apprehended. That’s the state of affairs in liberal America right now in the major cities.” (07:26)
  • Sit-in protests at ICE facilities viewed by Crispi as "mentally ill" behavior.

• New NYC Mayor Zoran Mandambi (09:10–14:00)

  • Criticizes Zoran’s focus on recent immigrant communities: “Those people aren’t the ones who built New York City. Those people aren’t the ones who've been paying taxes for the last 40 years.” (13:12)
  • Accuses Zoran of “code switching" with a "Halloween" accent for political gain.
  • Zoran’s post-victory fundraising push is mocked: “Go give Zoran more money... You are about to be bamboozled the likes of which you have never even imagined possible, white liberal New York City.” (16:01)

• Predicted Policy Consequences for NYC

  • Belief that progressive policies (rent control, free transport, weakened policing) will collapse city services and accelerate decline.

    • “The only thing that's going to happen out of Zoran's plan is that New York City is going to become unsafe.” (18:52)

  • Fear of municipal property seizures:

    • Memorable moment: Zoran promising, “If that doesn't work, the city's taking over the building. We're putting the worst landlords out of business.” (20:01)
    • Crispi: “This is third world stuff. Oh, the third world voted for him. Surprise, surprise.” (20:25)

2. New Jersey Election Postmortem and Alleged Shenanigans

• Dissecting the New Jersey Governor’s Race (25:29–31:34)

  • Mike laments GOP’s loss despite greater turnout for Ciattarelli, who increased his vote total by 122,000 year-over-year but was swamped by Democratic turnout for Mikie Sherrill.

• Allegations of Internal Sabotage (28:53)

  • Claims GOP leaders aligned with Chris Christie did not properly support Ciattarelli due to Trump’s endorsement.

• Voter Fraud Claims and Urban Ballot Harvesting

  • Interview with Mike Byrne (31:34–41:31)
    • Byrne alleges voter fraud, such as Democrats directing Republicans to incorrect polling locations and ballots pre-marked for Sherrill.
    • “Provisional votes are dangerous. They don’t always get counted. And the Democrat State Party was directing people to vote in places where provisional ballots would have to be used.” – Mike Byrne (31:56)
    • Describes urban ballot harvesting operations as well-financed business ventures.
    • “The Democrats are in business, and so are some of the Republicans. They have turned politics in New Jersey into a business to profit themselves.” (35:12)

• Trump's Role in GOP Electoral Strategy

  • Debate over whether Ciattarelli should have brought Trump in for a rally.
    • “Both. Both. Trump is essential to voter turnout. The Democrats used Trump to get their people out. And as you said, we did not use President Trump to get his supporters out in New Jersey or in Virginia especially.” – Mike Byrne (38:21)
    • Crispi: “This is a wake up call. I think this is a warning... you gotta embrace the Trump factor.” (40:19)

3. The Federal Government Shutdown & The Filibuster Fight

• Frustration with GOP Leadership (48:16–54:00)

  • Crispi criticizes Republicans for not ending the shutdown or abolishing the filibuster, arguing the latter is essential for Trump to pass his agenda.

    • “Republicans need to get smart and fight fire with fire. President Trump was talking about this... abolish the filibuster.” (48:48)
    • Quotes Trump: “Here’s some of the things that we’d pass if we terminated the filibuster... voter id, no mail in voting, no cash bail, no men in women’s sports, no welfare for illegals. You could go on and on. Without it, I don’t know that you pass anything because you can’t deal with them. They’re really irrational. They really are.” (51:26)

  • Dismisses Senator John Thune’s shutdown rhetoric as “theater.”

    • “Oh, what do they call that? The crocodile tears? This is theater, guys. This is theater.” (54:00)

  • Claims Democrats want chaos to defeat Trump: “They are trying to do everything they can to tank this country and take it to the brink so people are so uncomfortable, so in dire straits, so chaotic, that...they vote against Trump.” (49:00)

4. Immigration, Crime, and Biden Critique

• Biden Administration's Legacy on Immigration

  • Highlights cases of undocumented immigrants with commercial driver’s licenses and the cost of free health care for recent arrivals as examples of policy failures (62:41–67:45).
  • Memorable moment: “If you, as a citizen of any state in the country... want to show documentation that says no name, you’re not getting a loan, you’re not getting on a plane, you’re not getting a residential driver’s license, you’re not getting a home mortgage, you’re not getting anything under the name ‘no name.’ But for some reason, they're issuing [illegals] commercial driver licenses.” (63:20)
  • Criticizes difficulty of reversing illegal immigration: “Once you get millions of illegals in the country in a short period of time, it’s extremely hard to undo that. That’s what Trump’s trying to undo.” (65:55)

• Biden as the “Vegetable in Chief”

  • Plays and mocks clips of Biden: “One in five children go to bed hungry every night. No, it’s more than boo. It is a disgrace. It’s immoral. It’s wrong.” (66:57)
  • Lampoons Biden’s public confusion: “He gets to give some speeches. He gets massive million dollar payments. That’s his fee. That’s his payoff for selling up the country forever.” (66:25)

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On the NY Mayoral Election:

  • “Those people aren't the ones who've been paying taxes for the last 40 years into this system. ...Zoran would have said the white people and the native New Yorkers and the Jews and the Italians and the Irish could have said it, but he chose to mention the fringe nationalities that are almost all imported here in the last 10 years.” – Mike Crispi (13:00)

• Mocking Sit-In Protesters:

  • “Throwing their bodies on the floor to prevent the ICE officers from going back and forth into the facility. That electorate of the country, I think, is just totally gone. Mentally ill. It’s not even beyond reproach.” – Mike Crispi (08:47)

• Summing Up Trump’s Legislative Wish List:

  • “Here’s some of the things that we’d pass if we terminated the filibuster. Voter id, no mail in voting, no cash bail, no men and women’s sports, no welfare for illegals. You could go on and on. ...Without it, I don’t know that you pass anything because you can’t deal with them. They’re really irrational.” – Donald Trump, quoted by Mike Crispi (51:26)

• On Republicans Slow-Walking the Shutdown:

  • “Listen, are the words he’s speaking correct? Yeah, they’re correct words. But do something about it, buddy. ...This is theater, guys. This is theater.” – Mike Crispi (54:00)
