Key Discussion Points

1. Current Events: The U.S., Iran, and Trump’s Negotiations

[09:00–15:55]

• Context: Renewed unrest in Iran; U.S. and Iranian government exchange on hangings; President Trump’s social media posts.
• Panel Analysis:
  • Vinnie Mack argues that Trump is working on “parallel paths”—negotiating diplomatically while preparing for possible military action.
    • “He’s parallel pathing this... He’s looking at doing things militarily that could take these guys out... while he’s placating them a little bit, maybe getting lucky with the negotiation, but I would expect something more serious to happen.” (11:58–13:05)
  • Paul Nolan calls out the complexity and disinformation in Middle East reporting, emphasizing grassroots live reporting as essential to understand the real situation.
  • Rick Delgado & Kevin Downey Jr. later chime in post-break, discussing possible U.S. deception, Trump’s negotiation style, and disturbing reports (e.g., ‘bullet fees’ for families of executed protesters).
    • “It’s all deception. He’s a master at this stuff, throwing it out there and...getting them to react.” – Rick Delgado (20:47–21:27)
    • “The Abraham, USS Abraham Lincoln is making its way to the Middle East. If we take Iran out...Hezbollah’s gone, Hamas is gone, the Houthis are gone, and the New World Order is crushed...” – Kevin Downey Jr. (20:11–20:44)

2. Domestic Policy & Economics: Trump’s Credit Card Interest Rate Cap

[21:56–28:02]

• Mike Johnson’s Take: Capping at 10% sounds good for consumers but could cause banks to restrict lending, hurting people with lower credit.
• Rick Delgado: Counters, saying banks will weather the short-term profit hit and could win PR points by aligning with the policy. Consumers’ spending habits won’t change, and banks always find ways to profit in the end.
  • “They used to make money with 10 and 15%, and we’ve seen that go up from there…They’re not going to lose money on this, because again, when you say, well, they’re going to restrict lending. Why?” (24:47–25:23)
• Paul Nolan: Argues that market interference has serious downsides and can foster black markets.
  • “We have central planners controlling markets and that never works...it restricts lending to younger people, desperate people who need the credit. People turn to loan sharks…” (26:49–27:18)
• Consensus: The issue highlights the “mafia”-like rates currently prevalent and the deep control banks have via the Federal Reserve and inflation.

3. ICE Protests, Left-Wing Activism & Media Manipulation

[30:40–36:09]

• Kevin Downey Jr. brings comedic but pointed commentary on elderly protesters clashing with ICE and security forces, mocking both the protesters’ seriousness and the media’s framing.
  • Memorable moment: Description of activists getting pepper-sprayed and the self-importance of protestors.
    • “My favorite thing to watch is when the feds shoot a rubber bullet into a liberal woman scrotum. Yeah, that’s my favorite thing.” (31:59–32:05)
• Damon & Panel: Discuss viral protest footage and the left’s tendency to elevate outlandish figures to folk-hero status even when their actions appear irrational.
• Rick Delgado: Highlights a press secretary’s powerful defense of ICE, pushing back at left-wing ‘hack’ journalists.
  • “You’re a left wing hack. You’re not a reporter. You’re posing in this room as a journalist...” – Press Secretary (36:33–37:39)
• Vinnie Mack and Paul Nolan: Compare differing state responses (DeSantis in Florida vs. left-led Minnesota), citing Florida’s tough law-and-order approach and calling DeSantis the benchmark for other red-state governors.

4. Indoctrination & School System Funding

[50:38–54:00 & 74:48–77:47]

• Paul Nolan: Brings up a shocking 8th grade assignment from a NY school requiring students to write—in Spanish—regarding Trump’s deportation actions, framing ICE as villains.
  • “This is the assignment for 8th grade kids. If this is not the ultimate FU to all of us…The Democrats platformed on this.” (50:54–51:50)
• Vinnie Mack: Exposes the largest teachers union funneling millions into far-left political causes, funded with taxpayer money, calling educational indoctrination a root challenge for American renewal.

5. Globalism, Digital ID, & The UK’s Brit Card

[60:23–67:33]

• Rick Delgado: Reports the UK has seemingly backtracked from mandatory digital ID cards following mass public outcry, but infrastructure for citizen surveillance remains under construction.
  • “Victory for individual liberty…Britain’s left wing government performed yet another about face…The only thing they dropped was the requirement to use a specific government issued card…And even that’s temporary.” (60:23–62:44)
• Panel: Warns this is the model sought by globalist elites, and Europe’s trajectory shows what may be next in the US. NGOs and international money, the hosts argue, are influencing American institutions.

6. Audience Spotlights: Patriot Stories & J6ers

[43:57–46:35, 92:50–95:17]

• Kevin Downey Jr. interviews several audience ‘patriots’ at the warehouse, including J6ers who recount their arrests—one describes ‘diesel therapy’ during prison van transfers, another shares his pardon and the hope for judicial reform under Trump.
  • “I was convicted by a rigged jury…they call it torture, torture…” – Patriot Philip on his J6 experience (93:10–94:46)
• Patriot Ed, a high schooler: Shares that he’s the only one in his class reciting the Pledge of Allegiance, underscoring generational divides in patriotism and education.
  • “I’m the only one that actually says the pledge of Allegiance in my high school.” – Patriot Ed (56:25–56:31)
• Patriot Tom: Describes the New York landlord nightmare where tenants game the system, avoid paying for years, and city policies allow them to eventually buy out the building from under the landlord.
  • “Her big excuse for not paying rent...was that it was inconvenient for her to pay the rent.” (70:50–71:18)

7. Odds Makers: NFL Divisional Playoffs

[81:37–91:30]

• Panel makes NFL picks for the weekend (Buffalo vs Denver, Seattle vs San Francisco, Houston vs New England, Rams vs Bears).
• Lively banter about the state of teams and a “returning guest,” Aaron’s father Jim, joins the picks segment.

8. Other Notable News and Headlines

• NASCAR returns to pro-America roots:

  • Hosts welcome NASCAR’s new, unapologetically patriotic Daytona 500 ad. (57:39–60:08)

• UK Digital ID: The “victory” is illusory:

  • Panel points to surveillance state creep, social credit fears, and the role of moneyed NGOs. (61:51–66:33)

• Mainstream Media Critique:

  • Panel skewers left-wing outlets for fanning anti-ICE sentiment, teaching ‘rage-baiting,’ and misrepresenting law enforcement. (47:24–49:02)

• Good Economic News?:

  • Panel teases a reluctant CNN anchor reporting “good news” about interest rates and the economy. (95:29–97:43)

• Stephen Miller’s prescient vision:

  • His Duke professor recalls Miller as a star student who predicted he would be “#2 in the White House under Trump...someday.” (99:39–101:03)

Overall Tone & Style

The tone is boisterous, unfiltered, and often comedic—characteristic of RAV's brand of “real talk.” Panelists combine humor with pointed political analysis, reinforce conservative values, and engage both with each other and in-studio audience members. The discussion is fast-paced, blurring news, opinion, and personal stories. Expect pop-culture references (NASCAR, “MAGA Disneyland,” etc.), sharp-edged mockery of left-wing activism, and unapologetic patriotism.

Friday night live at the American first warehouse for the first time in 2026, officially on a Friday night. Although we were here a couple nights when Joe the Box helped us out after Harry blew up the studio. So we're happy to be back officially on a Friday night. And the boys are all here. It's always nice to have all the boys here, including Kevin Downey Jr. But Slick's here to my right. Slick's gonna do some sports. Slickster, how are you?

[Slick]

Is Harry still working? Ever Rising?

[Damon]

Yeah, I think the. I think he is. I think Harry decided what the refunds were going to be too. $20, they'll go through that.

[Slick]

Oh yeah, absolutely. Doing good today.

[Vinnie Mack]

Big day.

[Slick]

Doing good. Great day.

[Damon]

All right. Lots of sports I'm sure to talk about. Big games this weekend, big odds tonight. Pick the divisional round of the NFL playoffs. Yep. And then we get the conference championships, which is the best, I think day of the football year is those two games. That's coming up next weekend. But we'll get to the divisional rounds tonight.

[Slick]

We have returning guests too. Right.

[Damon]

And we do have a returning guest.

[Slick]

What's his name again?

[Damon]

That's Jim. Aaron's dad, otherwise known as is going to join us.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

You sure?

[Damon]

Slick's trying to get me in trouble.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yer's not Jerry.

[Aaron]

When is he not trying to get you in trouble?

[Damon]

Good question. So we'll do that at 9:30. Vinnie Mack is sitting next to Slick. He's got some news tonight. Vinnie Mack, how are you?

[Vinnie Mack]

Yeah, I'm doing great, thank you very much. Been a good day. A lot of decompression today. I hung out here, I played the piano and then I was admiring Kevin Downey Jr's haircut. It's one of the finest haircuts I've seen him have since we've been doing the show.

[Damon]

Yes.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yeah, what would we say? A little Duran Duran meets Dorothy Hamill.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

You got that going over there?

[Paul Nolan]

Just in time for the Olympics.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Heavy on the hammer, please.

[Vinnie Mack]

I love it. I love it.

[Damon]

No, all Right. So Ben's gonna do some news sitting.

[Slick]

Next to Vin, say, Hamil a camel.

[Damon]

Of course, the creator of what even is that? Who made its return this week to the show as well. Rick Delgado's here. Mr. Delgado, how are you?

[Rick Delgado]

I am good, thank you, Damon. Interesting day. Nothing. Nothing major happened. I didn't have to shave my toes or anything like that.

[Vinnie Mack]

Oh, my God.

[Rick Delgado]

No other manscaping details?

[Damon]

No one is interested in that? No.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

B.

[Rick Delgado]

D, Actually, I got a few emails saying thank you because it was a helpful little hint.

[Slick]

Hannibal Lecter signed Dr. Scholes.

[Rick Delgado]

They're called life hacks, Damon. You get these little life hacks and you can use them.

[Paul Nolan]

Shaving your feet is a life hack.

[Damon]

Yeah. The man with the new haircut is here.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yeah.

[Damon]

And the soon to be Las Vegas jacket because that's where he's heading, I think sometime this year to do some shows. Yeah, he's going to try to pull us with him, but I don't know if it's going to happen. But of course it won't.

[Rick Delgado]

Don't worry.

[Damon]

Don't be so negative, slick. It might happen.

[Slick]

I'm realistic.

[Vinnie Mack]

True.

[Damon]

That's Kevin Downey Jr. The host of the Kevin Downey Jr. Show is here. Mr. Down Jr. Oh, how are you, Big D?

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Thank you.

[Damon]

What prompted the haircut? It does look great, by the way.

[Slick]

The radio show.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

So what I do, I'll get it cut short. I'll let it grow long. So I get a little hippie. Ish. I get to the point where when I put a maga cap on, I look like a total goober.

[Damon]

Yeah.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

And then it's time to cut it.

[Damon]

Okay.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Because I. I do a mean redneck when I'm wearing any sort of baseball cap. Yes. And I've got big shows coming up. State College and Erie, Pennsylvania in the next two weeks.

[Slick]

Nice.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Anyone wants to come, I'll. I'll put posters up on all the socials. Can't miss it. It'll be a hoot. And then I'll come back and my hair will be a little longer.

[Damon]

Now, what's the. What's the deal with the Vegas. With the Vegas deal.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

So I'm working on a deal now where we keep in mind there's a time difference. So we'd be doing it out there from five till seven. My show starts at eight, so after that, while you guys are drinking in the green room, I'm gonna go out and make people do my little skits.

[Vinnie Mack]

We'll warm you up.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

All right.

[Damon]

Yeah, perfect.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

But we're looking at the Horseshoe. I'll be at the Horseshoe sometime in probably late May, late April, early May. And I'll keep you guys a prize as soon as I get a date. We can't. Yeah, Drag.

[Vinnie Mack]

Will Mo Green and Fredo be there with you?

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

You'll miss. With a guy like Mo Green.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yeah, Mo Green.

[Damon]

So Kevin will be at the Horseshoe doing some shows, making people laugh and I don't know, he's going to try to pull us down there with him, but I. I don't know. We'll see.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, Tropical depression. Damon's already pooped on it, so I haven't. I probably won't have.

[Damon]

I'm into it.

[Vinnie Mack]

That's not true.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

I know how much you hate to gamble, so I feel like I'm really putting you out there.

[Damon]

This is the one trip that I'm totally into, by the way. But we just got to make. Figure out how to make it work.

[Vinnie Mack]

So Harry's already there scouting out all the, you know, the electrical stuff.

[Damon]

Harry's already there scouting out as long.

[Rick Delgado]

As he can leave all around.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Right. Harry's in Vegas breaking our equipment yet again.

[Paul Nolan]

He's even there.

[Damon]

Yeah. Sitting next to Mr. Downey Jr. Is of course, Paul Nolan. He's going to have some news tonight as well. Mr. Nolan, how are you?

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

I'm good, buddy. I'm good.

[Paul Nolan]

I'm looking forward to this Vegas trip because I think it's going to happen.

[Damon]

You think it's going to happen, and here's why. Okay, here's why.

[Paul Nolan]

The Horseshoe is the only place with single deck blackjacket. And I know you're down for that.

[Damon]

I am down. I am down for single double home.

[Paul Nolan]

Of the nothing else, $3 18 oz steak. So I know you're all right.

[Damon]

Sounds good.

[Vinnie Mack]

Sounds good.

[Rick Delgado]

Well, that means it's an affordable trip now.

[Paul Nolan]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he's treating, right?

[Rick Delgado]

Exactly.

[Paul Nolan]

We could all split a steak.

[Damon]

We're going to drop you two at the Spear as to get that out of your system and leave you there. So.

[Vinnie Mack]

Hello.

[Slick]

We'll be hanging from the ceiling if there is one.

[Damon]

Well, a lot of places to start tonight on a Friday night. Obviously, we talked a lot last night about Iran and whether the U.S. was, quote, unquote, not getting. Not necessarily getting cold feet, but taking more into consideration than maybe they should be. And I'm going to. I'm going to trump what I. No pun intended. What I wanted to start with, with this because President Trump put out an X post today. Thanking, again, thanking the regime for. For stopping supposedly the killings and the hangings. And he put this out today on Truth. And I see this tonight at. Around what time did this come out? I guess it was out this morning. Top Iran prayer prayer leader who dubbed protesters Trump soldiers calls for executions amid ongoing arrest. Iran state radio broadcast sermon claiming 350 mosques, 400 hospitals have been damaged in the protest. This Iranian clerk has now called for the death penalty for protesters detained during a nationwide crackdown amid ongoing unrest against the Islamic regime. The cleric's call follows President Trump's threats of US Intervention if protesters were met with violence. Ayatollah Khamenei's sermon, which was broadcast by Iranian State Radio this morning, reportedly sparked chants from those gathered for prayer. The AP reported the chants include armed hypocrites should be put to death. During his sermon, Khamenei gave his first overall statistics of the damage from the protest, which began late December. According to the ap, this information provides a look at the scale of the protests after the regime instituted a nationwide Internet blackout on January 8. The cleric claimed 350 mosques, 126 prayer halls, 20 other holy places had sustained damage. He also claimed the 400 hospitals, 106ambulances, 71 fire departments, another 80 homes as of Friday. They want you to withdraw from the religion. He says they planned these crimes from long ago. So I'll just throw this out as the first subject of the day because again, you see what we're seeing from the president today out on social media. We talked about it yesterday. I don't know exactly who he's listening to or why these things are coming out, but this morning's tweet, you can put it up, Aaron, if you can see it. I greatly respect the fact that all scheduled hangings which were to take place yesterday, over 800 of them, have been canceled by the leadership of Iran. Thank you. And then this article drops in Fox News, basically saying the exact opposite. So hard to tell what the position is right now of the United States, if this is something that we're still looking at or not. Vin, I'll come to you first. What do you make of this?

[Vinnie Mack]

I mean, Trump's doing what Trump does. He's negotiating. He's talking to these guys a little bit, and he's planning to take action as well. And I think this is what he does, and he does it very, very well. He's parallel pathing this. He's looking at doing things militarily that could take these guys out. And I don't think there's any question that that's probably the more likely scenario. And he's also negotiating with these clowns like he has in the past, if you recall what happened with the nuclear facilities and so on. He was negotiating this kind of thing went back and forth. He posted stuff and said they were cooperating, they were negotiating, we're talking. And at some point the talking stopped and he went and took care of business. And I think that's where we are right now. I think he's trying to get them to do something peacefully and he's going to give it a window, a very short window to do that. And keep in mind it takes a long time to get what we need to do a perfect operation, which it has to be. This has to be a perfect operation. We've been really good at that with the nuke thing and then Venezuela and so on. So I think he's taken his time to prepare while he's placating them a little bit, maybe getting lucky with the negotiation, but I would expect something more serious to happen.

[Damon]

Well, let me give you a. And I'll we'll continue on this, but let me give you Amit Sehgal is one of the great follows on X. He's the chief political analyst at N12 News in Jerusalem, and he obviously follows all of this, and he's usually right on top of it. He put out his newsletter today, which is called It's Noon in Israel. He said, quote, trump wants to strike Iran and Netanyahu is asking him to wait. But the delay request, if true, reveals three possibilities. Israel doesn't have enough interceptors. That's the most obvious answer, and it makes some sense, but not much. Even if stocks are low, it would be worth it for Israel to risk a few hits if the strike topples the regime. Two, the planned American response is small or only symbolic and therefore too limited to make a real impact. In that case, Israel's request might be a call to scale it up. According to reports, the head of Mossad, who landed in Washington this morning for meetings with U.S. officials, believes this, this is the case. Or three, it's all part of a deception and testing operation, forcing Iran to mobilize its defenses, reveal positions and exhaust resources against a strike that may never come. What is most certainly is not. What it most certainly is not is any mercy for the bloodthirsty ayatollahs or lack of support for the brave protesters being massacred. But there is another country in the region whose reaction to the possibility of a strike has been particularly Interesting. And that of course is Qatar. And he goes on to, he goes on with this for a little bit. I won't read all of it, but Paul, I'll give you second crack. What do you make of all of this?

[Paul Nolan]

Well, there's so much disinformation coming in at everybody who's reporting on it is really reporting on it from their perspective, how they're going to make the biggest buck off it. One of the guys I've been following is this Tucy TV mayor Tusi. He's actually on the Charlie Kirk show today. He explains that the sectarian divisions and internal fractures may plague parts of the Middle east, but they do not define Iran. Iranians across backgrounds are united in one demand, the collapse of the Islamic Republic. Yet mainstream media continues to reduce the uprising to economic grievances, while pundits like Candace Owens deny it happens altogether. The reality on the ground tells a very different story. This is a guy I think we should bring on because he is constantly bringing in live feeds from phones through, through Starlink and his channel is phenomenal. If you're really trying to get a feel for what's happening there, I think it's worth a follow. It's really complex. It's, I mean there are a million moving pieces here. I just hope we let them work it out themselves for as long as possible. So as you said, it could be as tactical if we are involved.

[Damon]

All right, let's take the break. We'll get Kevin Downey Jr. Rick Delgado's take on what's going on. We'll give you a little more on Qatar and how they factor in. And the question is this is why you enforce red lines and we gave a red line and didn't enforce it. So we'll see what happens from here. Lots to talk about though. Other news as well. Live from Studio 6B on a Friday night live at the America first warehouse. We're back right after this.

Live from Studio 6P on a Friday night live at the America first warehouse. All the boys are in. Glad you're in. Wherever you're watching. If you're watching on social media, make sure you hit the like and subscribe. Kevin Downey Jr. I'll come to you. We were talking about Iran and what's going on, what Trump's going to do. Not do. A lot of stories out there. Again, a lot of posts trying to, you know, I don't know, I'm not sure what the point of the posts are, I guess. Is it all misconception like we were just talking about? What's your feeling?

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Well, I got a actually somewhat disturbing email from patriots Laura and Joey in Prescott. Not Prescott, it's Prescott, Arizona. Don't screw that up. They'll shoot you. And they're telling me that the crown prince of Iran, his name is Reza Pahlavi.

[Damon]

Yeah, he's the former.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Yeah, right. He's saying that you're not seeing public executions because they're going to the injured in the hospitals and shooting them in the head. And then the families don't get the bodies back unless they pay a bullet fee, which I've learned is sometimes as much as $5,000.

[Rick Delgado]

I heard that, too, about a bullet fee.

[Vinnie Mack]

I totally believe it.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

So I'll tell you this. The Abraham, USS Abraham Lincoln is making his way to the Middle East. Now, if we take Iran, we. If we take. Yeah, if we take Iran out. Now, Hezbollah's gone, Hamas is gone, the Houthis are gone, and the New World Order is crushed because they are driving the Islamo county. Well, the Islam portion of the Islamic worldwide invasion of Western civilization. And I know they like to explode, but maybe this time Trump will make them explode and they won't have to go out and get their own vest. So I'm looking forward to the Mullers, pieces of mullahs raining down on a free Tehran.

[Damon]

So you think Trump's going to make a move?

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Yeah.

[Damon]

Okay.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah.

[Damon]

Delgado, I'll come to you last. You can give an opinion and you can do some news here. What do you think?

[Rick Delgado]

I think, I think, yeah, he will make a move, but I think I'm going to go option number three, deception. In terms of deception, it's all deception. It's all. He's a master at this stuff, throwing it out there and like it says in there, getting them to react, seeing what they're going to do, and then, then he makes his adjustments. It's like a negotiation. Right. You throw, you shoot for the stars, and if you come home with the moon, you win.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Yeah.

[Rick Delgado]

And I think that's what he's shooting for. He's shooting to see what's going to happen, who's going to move what, who's going to be, you know, who's going to try and make a deal, who's going to try to escape, see what happens, and then go from there.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Now, Mr. Delgado, I've got a question. If they get 72 virgins when they die, why wouldn't they just take the. Take the missiles and run?

[Rick Delgado]

That's a good. That's a good question. I don't know. Maybe they don't believe it because the.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Virgins, I hear are men.

[Damon]

Good point.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

They had a seance. They got. No, no, no, don't do it. Oh, God.

[Vinnie Mack]

Another one that's called a bath house, I believe. Yes.

[Rick Delgado]

I would think they'd take it then.

[Damon]

All right, Rick, let's do some news. What's your first story up?

[Rick Delgado]

Well, you know what? It's jumping on what you guys are talking in there, in the green room before we got started tonight, Damon, of course, we started talking about this conversation last night about the 10% Trump idea on credit card cap. According to this. Now, a conservative influencer and former Wharton Business School graduate Aaron Wexler is also critical of the new post by President Trump suggesting the credit card cap rate of 10%. She's calling it essentially a socialist policy. She shared this video here is, well, she shared a video talking about it. She pointed out that she attended the same business school as Trump, but doesn't agree with the president on everything, including this 10% cap. Here is House leader Mike Johnson talking about what he, he, what he thinks when he heard about it from the President wanting this 10% cap. This is cut number seven. Mike Johnson, cut seven. Check this out.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Probably had not thought through and others at first glance. It sounds great. We should bring down, you know, interest rates to 10%. It would help everybody, all borrowers. There's a lot of Americans who have a lot of credit card debt. But then, you know what some of the experts have said as well. But the problem is if you, if you do that, then the credit card companies, the negative secondary effect is that, is that they would just stop lending money. And, and maybe they, they capture what people are able to borrow at a very low amount. And then that would have a negative effect on a lot of people who, who, you know, work on revolving credit. So it's something that we got to.

[Slick]

Be very deliberate about.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, so there's the, there's Mike Johnson talking about that. And you know, again, you know, I heard you and Paul going back and forth on this. We talked about it last night. I think you guys are looking at this the wrong way. At least, at least the naysayers, I think, are looking at this the wrong way. Tell me a bank that is in business to lose money. Anyone? None. Right. They're all, they're all about making money. They used to make money with 10 and 15% as your interest rate. And we've seen that kind of go up from there. Look, if they want, if they want to do this right, if they're smart and Vin, you might have an opinion on this as well. They might look at this and be like, look, we'll take a hit for a year. But really, what's a year for the bank, for their gobs of money? Not much when you think about it. Matter of fact, you might even come up with a bank that says, you know what? We're going to do this, we're going to do it, cap it at 10%. We're going to let people transfer to the new America first card where it'll be 10% that you can transfer your money over to. Now, all of a sudden, they look like the good guys. Everybody wants to go to that bank because, oh, look, they support the President. All of a sudden, they're expanding their base. Right? They're expanding their customer base. That's what they're going to do. And who says they're going to leave it at 10%? It's only for a year. After that, they can bang it back up to 25 to 30 and everybody's happier because at least on the banker side, and I know, Paul, you love bankers, but they're making their money. They're not going to lose money on this because again, when you say, well, they're going to restrict lending. Why? Because now people are going to have more money in their hands as opposed to on credit. And what are the American people known for doing? Spending money, overspending, carrying credit card debt. We're just going to keep carrying more credit card debt. I don't see how. This is not something that would go that the banks wouldn't sign on for because it's just a year. And again, if you look at it from that point of view, they always seem to make money, don't they?

[Damon]

Yeah.

[Vinnie Mack]

This looks like it could be a cosmetic idea, but I think at the end of the day, it's consistent with everything that Trump does. Puts out 10%. What he's really trying to say, at least in my view, is this credit card interest rates are ridiculous. They're like Mafia vids. Okay, I have good credit. I have a business credit card. It's 24% interest on that.

[Rick Delgado]

And it doesn't matter. You have good credit.

[Vinnie Mack]

No, no, it doesn't matter at all. Like, I've got good credit. You know, I'm a upstanding citizen most of the time. Rick Delgado. But, but I think this is more about Trump basically saying, look, we have to do something about this. You can't just keep charging people 25%, 30%. That's. That's mafia stuff. We got to make it, you know, reasonable and get it under control. Last time, interest rates went a little wacky. The banks and the, the folks that provided financing for purchase orders and all that stuff, they stopped lending money. To Damon's point, that's exactly what happened. You could no longer get a line of credit because the banks weren't willing to give it because they were having this interest rate. Battle that was maybe 15 years ago. And I know a lot of people that hurt their businesses, almost put them out of business because they couldn't get a line of credit on, you know, purchase orders and so on. So there's real ramifications here. But I think this is more about getting them to the table to figure something out.

[Rick Delgado]

Could be.

[Damon]

I mean, everybody knows how I feel. Paul, you weren't here last night, so I'll give you the. Instead of restating how much of a terrible idea this is, I'll let you have a.

[Paul Nolan]

Well, I don't think it's as terrible as you do, but I understand your point. From, you know, from a free market standpoint, we have central planners controlling markets and that never works. Can't be done in this case. We've had usury laws in America forever. But what does it do? As you said, it restricts lending to younger people trying to get into the market, desperate people who need the credit. People turn to loan sharks, which leads to, you know, organized crime.

[Damon]

Right. You create black markets by doing this, without a doubt.

[Paul Nolan]

So these are the things that, these are the negatives of that. But the one thing I think we have to kind of address is the banks have had such massive control over the markets already, starting with the Federal Reserve and the bis. And I mean, we're looking at a cabal that has basically siphoned off the wealth of every one of us here through inflation, through taxation, through interest. This debt and this money printing has devalued every penny we all saved from when we were kids. You think about it this way. In 1963, a quarter is worth $16. Today, a quarter is worth $16, net dollar is worth 14 cents.

[Vinnie Mack]

Wow, I did not know that the.

[Paul Nolan]

Banks, the banks are the root of the evil.

[Slick]

Crazy.

[Damon]

All right, live from Studio 6P, we'll do some sports. Kevin Downey Jr. Vinnie Mac News all coming up when we get back.

[Damon]

All right, live from Studio 6B on a Friday night jam packed. Let's get right to it. Kevin Downey Jr. The host of the Kevin Downey Jr. Show is here. He's got some news. Mr. Downey Jr. What's going on?

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Thank you, Big D. So, folks, I write for PJ Media. You go to PJ Media.com Remember, the more of my stuff you read, the more delicious Spy trail Distillery Bourbon I get to buy. I got a piece up one of Yesterday's called it's 10am do you know where your grandma is? She's getting pepper blasted by the feds. And it's a, it's a. I'm making fun of the, the fossils. Who, you know, they were, they were having unprotected sex at Woodstock and then they got jobs and now they're. Now they're on the last hurrah. So they want to protest something. Earlier in the year, I think they were wiping their ankle behookies on Teslas because someone told them to. Now they're getting in the face of ice. And it's hilarious. There's a couple things here. I mean, okay, my favorite thing to watch is when the feds shoot a rubber bullet into a liberal woman scrotum. Yeah, that's my favorite thing. But we've got a couple of these Gorgons, man. They're just in the face of eyes. One woman screaming, shoot me. Do we have videos for this?

[Damon]

God, no. I hope not.

[Paul Nolan]

Shoot.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Shoot me. Shoot me. Shoot me. Shoot me.

[Paul Nolan]

Why waste the lead? She died two years ago.

[Slick]

She Said the same thing at Woodstock.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

You know, her husband's watching Home going, please do it.

[Damon]

Please.

[Rick Delgado]

You know what's insanely pathetic about that woman? And all of them just. They all think they're that important, that somebody would actually waste the time to pay attention to that screaming like a lunatic.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yeah, I bet she's a professor at economics at a university or something. Like, she must have a prominent job. And she's a lunatic.

[Paul Nolan]

Right?

[Vinnie Mack]

It fits with that.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Now, the. The worst I've ever seen my grandmother a. An alcoholic French Canadian woman screaming. Beat his butt at a hockey game on TV once in the playoffs. But she never asked for someone to. To ventilate her or kill me. And I. God, I'm telling you, my grandma was making cookies.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yeah, exactly.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

This one.

[Paul Nolan]

So much of that in everybody's news feed, right?

[Damon]

Yeah.

[Vinnie Mack]

Oh, my God.

[Damon]

Oh, my God. It's everywhere.

[Paul Nolan]

I. I just keep on. Just scrolling.

[Damon]

And what's crazy is that may not be the craziest one of the week. The one we all shared in the chat today with the 29F words in it is probably the craziest one of the week. That woman is possessed. Yeah.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Oh, I'm telling you, man, they lost their marbles. I. This is some serious MK Ultra something going on. Oh, my God. Maybe they took off. Murder, she Wrote. They just went. Oh, that's it. Aaron, do we have the. The second one, or is it just that one? Oh, yeah, watch. Watch this. Salad dodger. Consequences. Not for me. All right, we're just getting started, folks. Did you. They just hit her with five pepper balls. See, the. There's more.

[Paul Nolan]

Ate three of them.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

There's more. I think these are people, Dean, that never learned the word.

[Slick]

She's going back for more.

[Damon]

Oh, yeah.

[Vinnie Mack]

Come on, Balboa.

[Damon]

Whoa.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Now, this ends in a. I mean.

[Damon]

These guys got to deal with this. Yeah.

[Slick]

Oh, man.

[Damon]

They're being too nice, in my opinion.

[Vinnie Mack]

They're just trying to do their job.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, just sweep the leg. Sweep the leg.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

We're watching on video, but I can almost smell the cat urine.

[Damon]

Yeah, exactly. Just. Just throw a cheeseburger off to the right. You'll be fine. She'll get out of there so fast.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Now here's her big moment. This is going to be. Watch if I love those guys. Now let's see if they go all the way. All right, now they're pouring water. She didn't learn from the first five pepper balls. It was a. It was that last blast that really taught her. Maybe I should go home now. Look, at this guy. He's waving his elon sign from the Tesla days. All right, now she's learned. But watch this. She. This is going to be her new profile [e-mail]. it's a dating site. It's a dating site. And she just sort of like, here it comes.

[Damon]

Oh, come on.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Look at this. This is her big moment. Well, she's still mixing it up.

[Vinnie Mack]

There we go.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

And watch. Here we go. Peace.

[Damon]

Peace.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

All right. Peace.

[Vinnie Mack]

Oh, I give these poor guys, man.

[Damon]

I mean, really. Exactly.

[Vinnie Mack]

Four guys gotta deal with this. Just.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Yeah.

[Vinnie Mack]

Absolute crap.

[Damon]

Lunacy.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

And you know what?

[Rick Delgado]

I wonder if she filled her boxers with that one.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

The left will embrace her. It'll take a couple guys, but the left will embrace her. And then she's gonna. And then she's gonna. You watch. She's gonna walk for mayor. I promise you, she's not gonna run for mayor, but she will walk for mayor.

[Vinnie Mack]

Kevin, what was that cat dating site again? I do want to check that out, if I could.

[Rick Delgado]

Oh, my God.

[Damon]

All right, Kevin Downey Jr. We'll have some more news in a little bit. You're a left wing hack. That's the basis of tonight's diaper diplomacy. Roll it. A.

[Paul Nolan]

Earlier you were just defending ICE agents generally. And earlier on, Secretary Nun spoke to the media, and she said, among other things, that they are doing everything correctly.

[Rick Delgado]

33 people died in ICE custody last year.

[Paul Nolan]

170 US citizens were detained by ICE and Renee Goode was shot in the head and killed by an ICE agent. How does that equate to them doing everything correctly?

[Rick Delgado]

Why was.

[Aaron]

Was Renee Goode unfortunately and tragically killed?

[Rick Delgado]

Are you asking me my opinion?

[Paul Nolan]

Because a nice agent acted recklessly until they're unjustifiable.

[Aaron]

Oh, okay, so you're a biased reporter with a left wing opinion.

[Rick Delgado]

What do you want me to do?

[Aaron]

Yeah, because you're a left wing hack. You're not a reporter. You're posing in this room as a journalist. And it's so clear by the premise of your question. And you and the people in the media who have such biases but fake like, you're a journalist. You shouldn't even be sitting in that seat. But you're pretending like you're a journalist, but you're a left wing activist. And the question that you just raised in your answer proves your bias. You should be reporting on the facts. You should be reporting on the cases. Do you have the numbers of how many American citizens were killed at the hands of illegal aliens who ICE is trying to remove from this country. I bet you don't. I bet you didn't even read up on those stories. I bet you never even read about Lake and Riley or Jocelyn Nungre or all of the innocent Americans who were killed at the hands of illegal aliens in this country. And the brave men and women of ICE are doing everything in their power to remove those heinous individuals and make our communities safer. And shame on people like you in.

[Damon]

The media who have a.

[Aaron]

A crooked view and have a biased view and pretend like you're a real honest journalist.

[Damon]

Yeah.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Yeah.

[Damon]

Fire. Yeah, that was fire from the press secretary. Fire.

[Vinnie Mack]

Fire is right.

[Damon]

Let's do some sports here. Sports is brought to you by Mike Lindell. LFS XP is the promo code to you, slickster. What's going on? Just one story.

[Slick]

We got odds makers coming up later on tonight. We can't wait. And Josh Allen is obviously involved. Buffalo Bills, by the way, only team in our state, New York state.

[Rick Delgado]

Right.

[Slick]

All the Buffalo Bills. Josh Allen addresses viral photo of Haley Steinfeld celebrating in a Broncos gear this is Nate Davis of USA Today. Well, I like that. And they're playing the Broncos this weekend. If you're an NFL fan who paid any media social media mind this week, then perhaps you've seen the image of actress Hailee Steinfeld celebrating that football game in a Denver Broncos jacket. Big deal. Probably not if Steinfield husbands Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, who's also a league's reigning mvp, wasn't facing the Broncos on Saturday afternoon in the opening game of the divisional postseason round wouldn't be such a big deal.

[Vinnie Mack]

Right?

[Slick]

But it is a big deal given the picture of Steinfeld and said Broko's garb was stamped on February 7, 2016, which happens to be the day that Denver most recently won a championship, defeating The Carolina Panthers 2410 in Super Bowl 55 time league MVP Peyton Manning's final game. If you look closely, you can see part of the Super Bowl 50 logo on the field behind Steinfeld. That game played at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, home of the 49ers. She also seems to be mocking the dab celebration of former Panthers Cam Newton, the league mvp. So you see her in this garb here. So they asked, obviously they asked Josh Allen about it and he said this is Tracy Wolfson's ex. And she said he told me that he had no idea it was floating around the picture on social media, laughed and said she was probably paid to be there and that he definitely wasn't going to bring it up at home. Now she's also pregnant with their first child. So kind of a big to do. So you don't want to upset Mama, but thought that was a pretty cute story. Anyway. Now she's got to live up to that. Now obviously the bills are paying her bills, right? I know she's an actress on her own and pop star as well. But very interesting story. So I thought that was kind of cute. He's never going to live that down unless he obviously beats Denver, then that'll be in the game tomorrow. So we shall see. We'll talk about that in the oddsmakers.

[Vinnie Mack]

Big D, that's a wrap on Taylor Swift. His very own Taylor Swift.

[Slick]

He has his own Taylor Swift. Yeah. Not quite as big a following, but still is Taylor Swift.

[Damon]

All right, slick. We will do that in the odds makers coming up at 9:30. Vinnie Mac is here. Vinnie Mac's got some news anti ice. Well, we've been talking about a lot of anti ice here, Vinnie. What's going on?

[Vinnie Mack]

Yeah, well, some breaking news before I get to the story because it totally relates.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Yeah.

[Vinnie Mack]

But CBS is just reporting that the Department of Justice is probing Tim Waltz and Mayor Jacob Fry for a conspiracy to impede immigration agents. They are formally investigating them.

[Damon]

By the way, have you watched any of the new CBS under Bari Weiss? It is a noticeable difference.

[Vinnie Mack]

CBS is coming around and this, I think this is all part of the.

[Damon]

Trump Almost watchable now.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yeah, it's almost watchable. The media has to change because they're getting no audience and so on and so forth. But this, the DOJ checking this out kind of goes to my next story because this is what should happen. There is a woman, let's see what her name is. Jennifer Cruz. Jennifer Cruz. Very, very special woman protesting our ICE agents in Florida, unfortunately.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Yeah, yeah.

[Damon]

Good luck there.

[Vinnie Mack]

It's not Minnesota. And let's hear what Ron DeSantis. Aaron, you have cut three with DeSantis, I believe. I do know there was a woman who came out and assaulted one of our troopers. Let me just tell you guys, this is not Minneapolis. That is not going to end well for you in Florida. You have a right to go out there and criticize government policy. You can go out there and protest within, you know, obviously respected zones. But the idea that you're going to assault one of our troopers is unacceptable and you are going to face consequences as a result of that.

[Paul Nolan]

Yeah.

[Vinnie Mack]

And that's, that's what leaders do. This is what leadership is all about. Florida is doing it. Other states are doing it. I've heard a lot of my. We talked about this a little bit last night, but a lot of my crazy Facebook friends and Paul jumped in on the debate there. Thank you for trying to help me out there on Facebook.

[Paul Nolan]

I begged the guy to engage in an argument because I had the subject wrapped up. Yeah, I really wanted to embarrass him.

[Damon]

Yeah.

[Paul Nolan]

Yeah.

[Vinnie Mack]

Well, you did a great job and you maintained your cool. But it's the same narrative when they talk about, you know, why are we sending so many agents into Minnesota, why there's so many more illegals in all these other states. I mean, it's the same thing. Because these other states do it, right. Mostly right wing states. Right. They're mostly red states, but they cooperate, they allow things to happen. And here's. You know, Ron DeSantis always seems to be the one governor of all of our governors that absolutely stands out when it comes to this type of unrest. I think he was the first one that said, you're going to use your car and go after someone, we're going to consider that a lethal weapon. Number two, if you're blocking the road, you can run them over. I mean, he's basically taken positions that I think we all would take, positions like that. When you see what they get away with, you know, it's a federal offense to block a highway during a protest. You're not allowed to do that. Nobody gets arrested for that. And I think that's where DeSantis finally just said, you know, if they're blocking, you know, you have every right to run them over. And in this case, you're not in Minnesota.

[Paul Nolan]

You know what I noticed the police leave you alone if you're not doing anything illegal. You know, really, it's really weird. I don't know.

[Damon]

That's usually.

[Slick]

What city is that?

[Paul Nolan]

A little strange, I suppose.

[Rick Delgado]

Does Minnesota know that this is something that they do? No.

[Paul Nolan]

Their official language is lie.

[Damon]

Yeah, well, but you're right. DeSantis has been the bar which we should judge every red state governor by. And by that bar, by the way, most of them fail dramatically compared to what he's done in Florida since COVID days, since he's been there, but certainly since 2020, he's led his. He's led his department of health, has led whether it's been on vaccines, whether it's been on Covid. He is the bar that we should judge every red state governor by. And if we do, most of them are fall pathetically short.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yeah. Great, Great government.

[Damon]

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Sam, Welcome back. Welcome back. Patriotic Americans Alive live from 306B. Coming to you live from the America first warehouse, the most. The most patriotic venue in all the galaxies. Luxy. We're hanging out right now with Robert Picarillo. Did I say that right? Robert Picarillo. They call me Bobby Pickles. Bobby Pickles. Sounds like a mob name. They call me Kevin the Chins. They call me Kevin the Chins because of these. See, these are my boys. This is my gang. We go everywhere together. All right, Bobby, you're a patriot. You and I have something allegedly in common, don't we? Yeah, not allegedly for me.

[Damon]

Yeah. I mean, either.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Documented. Yeah. Mine's on the news, too.

[Paul Nolan]

Oh, it is?

[Damon]

Yeah.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Why don't you tell them? January 6th. Guy right here. Congratulations. Yeah, that's right, brother. Join the fraternity. Oh, yeah, there's a little hazing involved. Usually involves going to jail, but I kind of dodged that part. Oh, you did? Did you go to jail?

[Paul Nolan]

I mean, I was, I was picked up. I, I. But thank God it was only.

[Rick Delgado]

It was a couple weeks before the.

[Paul Nolan]

Election, so I was able to make it the whole four years right before the election. I was. They got me.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

I was told, we're gonna get you. You better hope Trump doesn't win. Ha ha ha. That's what we say now, you know, the Democrats get away, they're gonna be beating the potato.

[Damon]

Salvage.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

That's a gulag, Bobby. What? Tell us about your business owner. Right.

[Rick Delgado]

Yes, sir. Fat Enzo T shirts.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

I'm a proprietor of that. And I make, I do screen printing.

[Paul Nolan]

And embroidery and campaign T shirts, palm.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Cards, lawn signs, and especially right now.

[Paul Nolan]

For all the people who are out there running for Republican candidates, I would love to help them.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

You know, what if a Democrat came to you and said, hi, my name's Gorgon and I'm running for mayor. You're in Connecticut, right, sir? Mayor of Pick a Town. Doesn't matter. Will you help the Democrats? Are you more on the Republican side? I'd help anybody, absolutely. I mean, I'm a business person.

[Vinnie Mack]

I would help anybody. Yeah.

[Damon]

And capitalism, I'm able to.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

I mean, unlike the left, I think.

[Paul Nolan]

That a lot of people on the right can put those differences aside and.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

And, you know, I agree 100%.

[Damon]

Your business.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Bobby Piccarello. Bobby Pickles. What's the business again?

[Paul Nolan]

Fat Enzo.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Fat Enzo. T shirts. Congratulations, J6 brother.

[Rick Delgado]

Thank you very much.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Kevin, thanks for coming down. Look at the camera, please. Say, back to you, Big D. Back.

[Damon]

To you, big D. All right, very good. Kevin Downey Jr. Here live from the American first warehouse on a Friday night. Paul Nolan sitting here to my left, he's got some news. Mr. Nolan, what's going on?

[Paul Nolan]

Well, you know, we talk about rage baiting over there. Delgado, I have rage baiting for you. As if you can't hate the media enough. This is. This is the propaganda piece they pumped out over at the Minnesota. Minnesota Star Tribune, which is as pathetic and liberal a rag as there ever can be. This is the way they're. I guess they're sycophants. Watch the news because look at this video. The way they portray ice.

[Damon]

Shame on you. Listen.

[Rick Delgado]

Have y' all not learned from.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

The past couple of days?

[Vinnie Mack]

Have you not learned? Learned what?

[Aaron]

What's our lesson here? What do you want us to learn?

[Slick]

Following federal agents.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Give me my phone back. No, you can't take my phone.

[Paul Nolan]

This is how they foment hate people go to church. Okay, well, it's all this. You could kill it there. Because the truth of the matter is, this is the way they foam and hate. This is how they. They get the people frothed up. They start with their paid agitators on the ground, the paramilitary for the donor class. They get them to run cover for them. They get these morons to act the fool, and then the liberal hive mind who's desperate to be in the herd follows along like sheep. They can't control themselves. They're pathetic. They're the weakest of the weak. And what do they do? They start to act like the paid agitators, right? And now they got free idiots, you know, useful idiots, you know, running on the ground to cover for the donor class.

[Rick Delgado]

Well, it's like the woman who was saying, shoot me, right?

[Paul Nolan]

That's all they are. She's not paid. She is brainwashed.

[Rick Delgado]

Right, but. But I mean, this. This is the type of person, this weak minded, you know, just follow the crowd. I want to be. I want to be next. Let it be me. Let it be. That's all they want. They think they're going. They're important. They think they're above it all. They think, well, if I go and push on the. They're not going to push me back. And they find out the hard way, and it's glorious when. When some of these people really, really get their due, so to speak. Yeah, I mean, I'm not.

[Paul Nolan]

When you see the comeuppance, it makes thrilled Katie J.

[Rick Delgado]

Because, you know, they're so out of line.

[Damon]

Yeah.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

You know what? I think the woman who got shot, I think the left went crazy. Went, yes, finally. Oh, yeah, they killed one. Now we can go to town. George Floyd 2.0 well, they were talking.

[Rick Delgado]

About that over the summer, the Axios article saying they need blood.

[Damon]

Yes.

[Rick Delgado]

This is a quote. They wanted blood. They needed that. And then they, they were mentioning to. Just the other day we played a clip where, where, you know, these guys, these people are telling the. The police, we need. You need to go out and fight the police.

[Paul Nolan]

Well, that's going on.

[Rick Delgado]

Lunatic.

[Paul Nolan]

They're legit. Like there are police chiefs, including the guy Frey, saying all police have to stand up. Call us if somebody's attacking you. Including ice. I mean, this is really what they want on the streets. Well, yeah, it is.

[Vinnie Mack]

I just saw a great comment on this. Someone said they're activating Trump Derangement Syndrome. It's like this Trump Derangement Syndrome. When people, like in social media or they're out just acting nuts now they've activated. It's like activating zombies, you know, to then go infiltrate stuff. They, they're activating Trump Derangement Syndrome.

[Paul Nolan]

That's where my tinfoil hat's like it was in the vaccine. They didn't want to deploy it.

[Damon]

Paul, let's get to that other story you wanted because I want to put this up so people can see it. So you want to just give a little background on this.

[Paul Nolan]

So this is a story from. This is how you got to be on top of your schoolwork for your children. This is right here. Plainview. Old Beth Page.

[Damon]

This is.

[Paul Nolan]

That's not exactly. Beth Page is somewhat blue collar. Plainview, though that side of it is as liberal as gets. This is the test just last week from my, My kids school, my friend's kid's school. President Trump is deporting illegal immigrants. ICE is going into businesses and schools to get children and adults. They're being taken to the payment center with only their possessions they have with them. Write a response if you agree or disagree with this in Spanish, at least 125 words, incomplete sentences. This is the, this is the assignment for 8th grade kids. If this is not the ultimate FU to all of us. I mean, this is the. Remember, the Democrats platformed on this. How many clips do we have to show of Obama and Schumer and Pelosi and Clinton and all of them, including cnn Parroting how great ICE is and how great deportation is.

[Rick Delgado]

Right.

[Paul Nolan]

And here we are. The morons weren't told to activate. Then why? What happened? So I guess Democrats realized they could use NGOs. They can use all kinds of donor class money and they could funnel all of our hard working tax money into their pockets.

[Rick Delgado]

Right. And not only that, but that, that adds to the indoctrination that we've seen in the schools for, for, you know, decades now, unfortunately, is how. Is why they're so incensed in like, you can't take away our access to schools.

[Damon]

Why?

[Rick Delgado]

Because that's where we train our, our paramilitary coming up. That's the next wave.

[Paul Nolan]

Exactly right. 100%.

[Rick Delgado]

This is why you have the wackos who are like, who end up getting shot in the face, because this is what they've been told their whole life.

[Paul Nolan]

When we were kids, we were told to pledge allegiance of the flag. We were told to love our soldiers and our policemen, and every kid wanted to be a cop. Meanwhile, it was bring your dad to school day and the guy who made 7 million a year as an executive. Kid's like, then the fireman comes over, he's telling stories like, you're the greatest. That doesn't exist anymore. They don't. We don't glorify our heroes. We don't glorify people who work hard. You know, we glorify, you know, clean hands and dirty money.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yeah, the big part of the money coming into what Delgado was talking about is coming from overseas with all the NGO stuff and all that. Yes, we have wasted a lot of money. The fraud. But then these international groups want to take us down. And here's the path I think you've quoted. Like the countries that, you know talk about communism and how to take down countries and, and spoil their youth, brainwash them.

[Rick Delgado]

But Vin, these NGOs, they're based in other countries, but they're taking our money. Our money goes to these NGOs, which then gets funneled back.

[Paul Nolan]

And if I could just. Jack, quick, think about what we see just in these blue states. Imagine what's happening at the international level through the who, through the un, NATO. Imagine the trillions being robbed from us there too.

[Damon]

That might be the quickest hour one we've ever done. Hour one in the books at the America first warehouse on a Friday night. We'll get to hour two coming up. Odds makers at the bottom of the hour. Stay tuned for all your divisional.

[Rick Delgado]

That is right.

[Damon]

I was going to say conf.

[Slick]

Let's go.

[Damon]

Coming up. Hour two right back after. Sam.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

If your television sounds funny in the evening, you're watching live from Studio 6B.

[Damon]

All right. It is live from Studio 6B.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Hour two right there.

[Damon]

Look at that shot from the America first warehouse. What a place to be on a Friday night. We always have a great time here. Joe the Box and his staff, always so welcoming. We appreciate them having us in. And of course, you to live from Studio 6P audience. We appreciate you giving us a few hours of your Week Day Night 8 to 10, Monday through Friday, right here, Real America's Voice, 1039 LI News Radio, of course, as well tonight, welcome on in. Slick's doing sports. Vinnie Mack, Paul Nolan, Kevin Downey Jr. Rick Delgado all doing some news.

[Vinnie Mack]

How you doing?

[Damon]

Kevin Downey Jr. With another great patriot here at the America first warehouse, Kevin Downey Jr. Who do you got?

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Thanks, Big D. We've got Patriot Ed from the great state of New Jersey. Let's hear from Patriot Ed and that damn fine hoodie. Have you been here before, Ed?

[Rick Delgado]

Yes, I was here the first night.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

No way. Oh, yeah, you're an og.

[Sponsor/Announcer]

That's right.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Congratulations. I love this place. This is like maga. It's like a Disneyland for MAGA people, but without the pedophiles. You know, it's just like we traded the pedals for patriots, so it's even better. Patriot Ed, let me ask you, what does America mean to you?

[Rick Delgado]

Well, first of all, it means freedom. But also, this is my homeland, so I love it for everything that has happened in it. And I'm the only one that actually.

[Slick]

Says the pledge of Allegiance in my high school.

[Vinnie Mack]

Wow.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Really?

[Rick Delgado]

Really?

[Paul Nolan]

Kidding me.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

They don't do it as a classroom.

[Paul Nolan]

No, they don't.

[Damon]

Really?

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Oh, I didn't even know that was a thing. That.

[Slick]

That really stings for me.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, because. Because this country's really great, but you.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Stand up and you do it anyway. God bless you, Patriot Ed. Let's hear it for Patriot Ed. Yeah, we have young patriots, folks. Patriot Ed, can you do me a solid, please? Can you look in that camera and say, back to you, Big D. Back to you, Big D. Yeah, buddy.

[Damon]

There we go.

[Slick]

Fired up.

[Damon]

Another great patriot here at the America first warehouse.

[Vinnie Mack]

I love that.

[Damon]

I love that, too. Yeah, but it's sad to hear that.

[Slick]

Very sad.

[Vinnie Mack]

Very sad. And that's where, you know, our. Our education system has just gone down the toilet.

[Rick Delgado]

And we were just talking about that.

[Damon]

Look at what they're. Look at what they're putting out to their students.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

And then they asked us to respond.

[Damon]

To that in Spanish, by the way. Did anyone. That's like a number of it. Why do they have to respond in Spanish?

[Paul Nolan]

Well, it was Spanish.

[Damon]

No, I know that, but I mean, why that question? I mean, you could. There's a lot of things. I mean, it's just ridiculous. All right, let's do some sports. Sports is brought to you by Mike Lynn Dell LFS Experience Promo code to use. Haven't gotten to slick in a while. Slickster. What's going on?

[Slick]

It's good to see NASCAR is getting out of their woke mode and getting back to the basics of what they really stood for. NASCAR's new Daytona 500 commercial is a middle finger straight to your liberal ant. It's been a tough off season for nascar, but this is a good way to get them back on track. Zach Dean of Outkick. Wake up, NASCAR fans. There are 31 days until the Daytona 500. That's right. 31. Actually. 30 now. Can you believe it? Feels like just yesterday we were packing our bags in Phoenix and heading into the offseason. And now we're just about back. One month and the green flag will finally drop on a new automobile season. This is a big one for nascar, too. There's been a ton of change in the garage since the fellas last ran laps. Steve Phelps is gone. Denny Hamlin and Michael Jordan won their court case. Tony Stewart is inexplicably running a race next month. Oh, yeah, and there's a brand new playoff format. We've gone back to the Chase. No more winning in. We should hear a lot less complaining from fans this season. Thankfully. Bottom line, times. Bottom line is times are changing in nascar. Which probably explains why fans are fired up over the recent 500 promo that has been posted on all the series social media accounts. So just Pro America, Pro Freedium, pro redneck. Daytona 500 AD in 2026 is something that they never thought they'd see at Outkick. Run that cut eight Aaron nascar. This is their new adding and where they're going.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

What's up, guys? It's Cletus. I'm out here at Daytona and who the hell's calling me right now? Why do we even have this phone in the middle of the track?

[Vinnie Mack]

Hello?

[Paul Nolan]

Oh, yeah.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Daytona 500. Yes, February 15th. What can you expect? Well, shoot, brother.

[Rick Delgado]

We're going to be turning left.

[Damon]

A lot of horsepower.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

A lot of freedom. Yup, it's gonna be a hell yeah, brother situation.

[Rick Delgado]

All right, we'll see you out there, brother.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Thank you.

[Slick]

And that's what racing fans want to hear. Last month they were called stupid rednecks by Steve Phelps. Not directly, but it's clearly what he thought of the NASCAR fans in general. You don't attack your most famous car owner and think that's the end of it. So good to see NASCAR getting back on track being what they are. I know we're up north, we have some NASCAR fans in the house, no doubt about it. But when you get down south, we got tons of NASCAR fans that love to watch the show. Big D. That's why I wanted to get that in. So great to see the woke getting off the track and going back to where we should be. That's a wrap.

[Damon]

It's going to be a hell yeah brother situation. I like that sound right there. It's going to be a hell yeah brother situation. So I like that. All right. Slick Sports brought to you by Mike Lindell. Slick will be back to do the odds makers at 9:30. Rick Delgado, it's got more headlines. What's going on? Victory for individual liberty. What's this about?

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, this is something I think, I think we all probably have kind of a stake in when you talk about it. Victory for individual liberty. Labor government admits defeat on Blair style. Tony Blair from the UK Mandatory id Paul yeah, this is something we've been paying attention to. Britain's left wing government performed yet another about face, this time on scrapping the mandate for all people wanting to live and work in the UK to have a digital id. Yes, you heard it. Digital id, the national digital identity Brit card they're calling it. Documents being introduced by Westminster will no longer be mandatory, the British government has said. The news was met with celebration as an important victory for pro liberty campaigners. With the U turn having come after months of pressure and even public petitions garnering nearly 3 million signatures, an impressive achievement for British politics. Of course, Brexit pioneer and reform UK leader Nigel Farage noted that this is a victory for individual liberty against a ghastly authoritarian government. And he couldn't be more right. But the devil's in the details, according to this. Check out this clip from this. This guy who has a little take on this and he's basically saying what I just said, the devil's in the details. It may not be in there right now, but that doesn't mean that they stopped working on it. Here's cut number two, the fine print. Cut two. Check this out.

[Damon]

Digital ID has been scrapped. Government U turn Victory for individual liberty. That was the news this week. The government Looks set to row back.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

On plans to introduce mandatory digital ID cards.

[Damon]

Nearly 3 million people signed the petition. The government backed down and Nigel Farage declared it a triumph over ghastly authoritarianism.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Even Kemi Bandenot called it a rubbish policy.

[Damon]

And she was glad to see the back of it. Papers, please. Not in Britain, not today.

[Rick Delgado]

Except.

[Damon]

Well, that's not actually what happened. They didn't scrap digital ID. They're still building the entire system. Over 30340 million pounds in contracts have already been handed out. The infrastructure is still going ahead on schedule. The only thing they dropped was the requirement to use a specific government issued card.

[Sponsor/Announcer]

And even that's temporary.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah. So there you have it. Just a quick, you know, drop of information on that known as the Brit card. It's a digital ID scheme, you know, much like they have in China. You know, it's the social credit system where they can turn things on and off if you've been bad, if they don't like your, your, your thoughts, your, your social media posts. You're not allowed to travel, you're not allowed to use money, you're not allowed to do things. And it's, it's what is coming. We've seen it in China and now it's starting to make its way through Europe.

[Vinnie Mack]

They arrest people in London, in England.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah.

[Vinnie Mack]

They arrest you on social media posts.

[Paul Nolan]

12,000. They're up to arrest.

[Vinnie Mack]

12,000 people.

[Paul Nolan]

12,000 arrests.

[Vinnie Mack]

I mean, that's as bad as any communist country has done, frankly.

[Rick Delgado]

It's worse actually. And from what they're saying here, it's just to help prove the people's identity and make them eligible to work again. There's the other catch. Eligible to work. So if they decide they don't want.

[Paul Nolan]

You to be able to work everything easy.

[Rick Delgado]

Exactly.

[Paul Nolan]

More efficient. It'll be good for every. Yeah, okay.

[Rick Delgado]

Right, exactly. It's almost like V for Vendetta is coming true in the uk.

[Paul Nolan]

Yeah.

[Rick Delgado]

Right.

[Paul Nolan]

Yeah. And this is the global goal of the globalists. You know, this is what they want. One world currency. One world digital currency. Programmable, surveillable, you know, and deprogrammable, you know, you didn't use your credits in time. Yeah, it's not even called money for.

[Vinnie Mack]

A second because I had the benefit of an incredible meeting with a bunch of European leaders earlier in the week and they were talking about how much further along Europe is in their globalist, you know, sort of ventures. But all of that is what we're seeing spilling into certain cities in our country. But all the immigration stuff that's happened, the fact that people are getting arrested for social media, these deliberate attempts by the small power brokers within Europe. Not talk about countries either. We're talking about the un, we're talking about the World bank, we're talking about the eu.

[Paul Nolan]

And now you're talking about my language.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yeah, well, but that was so validating to me. I don't want to name who these folks were, but they're highly prominent people in Europe and they really opened my eyes to just what was really happening there that we see happening here. It's a concerted global effort coming into our country. That's why I was talking about money coming in. All those NGOs, they do go out to other places and come back, but then there's just money coming out of Europe and the Middle east and other countries trying to destroy us, just flat out. Trump cuts funding for Harvard. Qatar sends 100 million. Yeah, this is what's happening for real. So we just got to wake up to it. I mean, Trump is.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

But I love how you opened up. So I'm talking with the heads of Europe the other day.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yeah, thank you.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

I'm hanging out with Bobby Pickles. We're talking about not going to jail.

[Paul Nolan]

Yeah.

[Vinnie Mack]

I wish Bobby Pickles was there running some thing in Europe.

[Damon]

Bobby Pickle.

[Slick]

That's it, baby.

[Rick Delgado]

But, yeah, the mandatory IDs. And you know, that there's been a push here for it as well. You know, trying to make sure that, again, it's. To control the masses.

[Paul Nolan]

Yeah. Real ID is. Is the precursor to. Right. Reject it. You just got it. We all have to reject it.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah. Especially when it comes to, you know, whether you. It'll allow you to work. And that's a big thing in the UK is. Oh, we just want to make sure that you're supposed to be here and allowed to work, which means you're allowed to make money, which means you're allowed to eat.

[Paul Nolan]

And it was killing the elderly, it was killing the. It was killing the above 60 demographic. It was killing farmers, it was destroying. It's an absolute unmitigated disaster. But this is what people are waking up to. That's the one thing about mainstream media. Can't control the narrative. And we at least have, you know, some semblance of freedom. And let's be frank, what do they want to do more than anything? They want to stifle X across all of Europe. Now, why? Because you can't control the narrative.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yep.

[Damon]

Yeah.

[Rick Delgado]

Especially when it comes to stuff like this. Because. Because if you're allowed to speak freely, well then they can't shut you down. Well, look what they're doing in Iran.

[Paul Nolan]

I personally think that the head of the snake, the central look the, for me the true enemy is the globalists which is all these centralized structures that to me is the top of the power structure and then it works its way down and then it gets to the streets of these cities where we watch the bottom up morons take down the culture. The top down though is still coming from in my opinion, the central banks of Wall Street, London, I think, you know, the power structures of the Vatican, the most vast wealth. All these places that have been there forever are really still, they never left and they still control the money. And I think we're watching Trump decouple from that international globalist banking system they hate Trump with.

[Vinnie Mack]

I mean as much as they can hate anybody, they hate Trump. Well, exactly. He's bucking the system.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

They know it's over. They know it's over.

[Damon]

All right. 12 minutes past the hour. Live from Studio 6, speed live at the America first warehouse on a Friday night. We got more to do. Odds makers coming up at 9:30.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Thank you, Big D. We got Patriot Thomas from Queens, New York City. Let's hear it. Thank you for coming down, Patriot. Now you've got yourself in a pickle because you're a landlord in New York City. You've got a communist in the mayor's house. Tell us what's going on, buddy.

[Vinnie Mack]

Well, I've been in court for nine years trying to get rid of somebody who's not paying rent. Her big excuse for not paying rent. Her testimony was that it was inconvenient for her to pay the rent. All right, this is what I'm facing. And every wild story you can imagine she's come up with. She said the bathroom was missing and she didn't tell anybody for seven years.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Wait, the bathroom was missing?

[Vinnie Mack]

Yes.

[Damon]

Huh.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

What does she smoke? I'm just curious, because it's legal now. It sounds like it might be good stuff.

[Vinnie Mack]

Well, her and some other friends apparently rebuilt the bathroom. It just. It makes absolutely no sense. They get unlimited legal aid funding, so every time we go to court, the legal aid either changes the attorney or they file a new crazy motion. And then they give them an adjournment to answer the crazy motion.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

So this wacko hasn't paid rent in nine years?

[Vinnie Mack]

She paid a partial rent and then she decided. She said it was inconvenient to pay the rent. So she hasn't paid a dime in seven years.

[Slick]

Wow.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

And it can go on that long? Are there any openings? Because I would love to move in. I didn't get one of these lawyers or something. Now, Patron. Tom, let me keep for another couple of seconds. Call me Mom. Donnie. In the mayor's house? In the mayor's mansion. Your landlord. How does that gonna work out?

[Vinnie Mack]

Well, they've already been hosing us for years, okay? The delays always go. A year and a half, two years. To evict somebody for not paying. He's just supercharging it.

[Damon]

Yep.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

And you know, I hear if you want to sell your building, the city gets first crack at it. Did you hear that?

[Vinnie Mack]

Yeah. I was actually at the Hearing, they want to give the tenants the first crack. So what they do is they'll go on a rent strike.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Stop.

[Vinnie Mack]

Stop paying the rent. Pocket the money. And now, since no one else will buy your building because you've got tenants on a rent strike, the tenants then use the money that they're saving on their rent, and they buy the building out from under you.

[Damon]

Wow.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

And that tenant hasn't paid in seven years. She's probably saved enough to buy Trump Tower by now. That's a horrible idea. So your. Your tenants can say, too inconvenient to pay, save all their money, and buy you out.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yet that's what the. The new. The new law that they've proposed is unbelievable.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Well, Patriot Tom, we're on your side. We would pay rent if we weren't too afraid to go to Queens and Brooklyn and get stabbed for wearing MAGA hats. So unfortunately, you're stuck with the commie. God bless you. Best of luck to you, Patriot Tom. Thank you. Let's hear from Patriot Tom. All right, back to you, Big D. Thank you, Kevin.

[Damon]

Donnie, Jr. Man, un. Is that unbeliev. That is just unbelievable.

[Slick]

Crazy cake.

[Damon]

Vinnie Mack is here. He's got some news as well. Vinnie Mack? What's. Man, oh, man, that's unbelievable. What's going on?

[Vinnie Mack]

Oh, yeah, that's a. That's a story, man.

[Damon]

Seven years. Nine years.

[Paul Nolan]

No, seven years.

[Rick Delgado]

Been there nine years. Hasn't paid in seven. I'm surprised the place hasn't gotten struck by lightning.

[Vinnie Mack]

Wink, wink.

[Damon]

Crazy. What's going on?

[Paul Nolan]

I'm with you, Delgado.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yeah. I do want to remind everyone that Ellen DeGeneres and Rosie O' Donnell are still not. Still not living in the United States of America. I think we got that going for us. Before I get to this story, I want to acknowledge something Mr. Pickles said over here during his time with. With Kevin Downey Jr. Who has a radio show. Just want everyone to know that you could tune in anytime.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

I don't talk to the crowned heads of Europe, though.

[Vinnie Mack]

No, you will soon. You will soon. But you said something pretty cool in my book, and that is, this is a big difference between conservatives and liberals. If he was a liberal doing what he's doing, making signs that go on lawns and all that, he would not make one for conservatives. It just would not happen.

[Slick]

That's true.

[Vinnie Mack]

They would throw you out of the business and so on. But this. But this guy said what most of us normal people and conservatives would be. We'd be like, you know what? I'm not going to discriminate like that. I don't agree with their politics, but sure, I'd make the guy the sign. So I just want to acknowledge that because I think that's what we're all about as conservatives. We are all about that way of thinking. Now let's talk about schools. Let's talk about the indoctrination of our youth and how does it all happen and how does it all get started? Fox News just put out a report that the biggest teachers union in the country has been funneling money, millions of dollars into all these major levels. So the money you're paying in to pay your teachers, the taxes and so on, they're spitting that right back out to fund all of these far left organizations. And you wonder how it is possible that our kids are being indoctrinated to this level. Well, it goes all the way to the unions. The one thing that I've seen happening across the Trump administration, they haven't gotten to this fully yet, but they need to. I don't know if Linda McMahon is on this or not, but they are following the money just about everywhere. I know there's a major trace of money going on right now regarding funds going to Antifa and a lot of these other groups, but the money going into our education, to me this has got to be one of the higher priorities in the administration. They need to make it a higher priority because when you see this from major teachers unions funneling money into these causes, it does outrageous. When we hear them speak about these things, we're like this, they sound like complete left wing nuts. They're crazy and they're teaching our kids. But then they're using our own money to further those causes. So Fox uncovered this and this goes back, you know, years, by the way. They just caught them in 2024. But it's just another example of how our school systems are messed up and they're indoctrinating our youth and we have to put an end to it somewhere somehow.

[Paul Nolan]

So what's more important? That or getting voter fraud wiped out? For me it's voter Frank fraud should be number one. And that's right there.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yeah, I mean I have like 10 number ones. Yeah, that's the problem with the country right now. And you know, Trump's not sitting around doing nothing. We hear all the time he is there investing, if that. Yeah. There's just so much I know they have. It is a tidal wave of stuff that's happened over the last 10, 15 years in particular of these left wing globalists just doing all of these things to destroy our institutions. So he's peeling them back one by one. But, man, it's an overwhelming, you know, effort here to clean all this up.

[Paul Nolan]

The conspiracy theorists are now like 375 and 2. You know, like, it keeps coming.

[Vinnie Mack]

Here's how you define a conspiracy in six months. It's reality, right? Someone had said that on our team here. I'm not sure. Maybe it was you, Rick Delgado. Sounds like something that you would say. Would you take credit for that?

[Rick Delgado]

No, I'm not going to take credit for it because I probably ripped it off from somebody else. But. No, that's exactly what it is, though, right?

[Vinnie Mack]

Six months. It's true.

[Rick Delgado]

But these aren't conspiracy theories anymore. They're just conspiracies that we're noticing.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yeah, that's right.

[Paul Nolan]

Yeah, they're good scams.

[Damon]

All right, 26 past the hour. You know what's coming up? Odds makers. We'll pick your divisional rounds. Jim's gonna join us. He's back feeling confident. I asked him before the show. He says he's confident. Confident he's going to whoop up on Slick Rick and on Aaron. We'll see if it happens. We'll see right after this.

[Vinnie Mack]

He knows football, I hope, right?

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Folks, you are watching live from CO6B on the Real America's Voice Network. We're at the America first warehouse. I have a radio show.

[Rick Delgado]

Folks.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

We've got Patriot Diane joining us. Let's hear from Patriot Diane. Clap it up now, Patriot Diane. Something is steaming your clams. What is it?

[Aaron]

Well, there's been a lot of focus.

[Rick Delgado]

On Minneapolis and on the state of Minnesota.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

And I think that it's brought to everybody's attention just the stunning amount of.

[Rick Delgado]

Corruption that's going on over there and.

[Slick]

Just the extent the great lengths that.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

The politicians over there do to cover everything up, all the fraud.

[Aaron]

And it's just unbelievable.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

I mean, all the reporting from John.

[Rick Delgado]

Solomon and also from Nick Shirley on that.

[Vinnie Mack]

And you wonder, well, how much of.

[Aaron]

This is going on elsewhere?

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Well, Diane, let me ask you this. They are fighting hard to keep these illegal immigrants here. I think it's because, number one, they're here to replace us.

[Vinnie Mack]

Number two.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Well, I think the Democrats are getting a little kickback from these. These Somali fraudsters who own seven buildings but don't get up until noon as there are seven businesses. I should say, thank God, not buildings, because they're going to take them away like they're going to do to Tom when the commies take Over. Do you think they're keeping these Somalis here because they're getting too much money and they just got to keep them, Them? I think they're keeping them there, really.

[Rick Delgado]

Just for the votes.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

For the votes. I think the votes. A huge part of it. Thank you. Let's hear from Patriot Diane. Can you look in that camera? Slay. Back to you, Big D. Back to you, Big D. All right. Thank you.

[Damon]

Thank you. Kevin Downey Jr. On a Friday night here at the America first warehouse. Look out, Kevin. Don't step in my camera shot there.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Hey, yeah.

[Vinnie Mack]

Wow.

[Damon]

All right. It's a Friday night at the America first warehouse. 9:30. That can only mean one thing. It's time to do a divisional round. Odds makers. All right, here we go. A divisional round. Odds makers. Four NFL games left to see who goes to the conference championships next week. And then, of course, to the big one. That would be the biggest one of them all. Super Bowl. We'll talk about that obviously, down the line, but let's pick some games. We got Slick Rick. We've got Aaron. And Jim is back, of course, otherwise known as Aaron's dad. Jim is back on set. He was here during the regular season, and he has vowed to me to whoop up on not only Slick Rick, but of course, on Aaron this week with his picks. He's feeling good. Aaron looks very nervous to me before the show as I tried to gauge how she was feeling about this. So.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Right.

[Aaron]

Definitely.

[Damon]

Jim. Jim's back. Jim, welcome back. How you? You feeling good?

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Feeling great, Damon.

[Damon]

All right, here we go. Game number one, Buffalo at Denver. Denver minus one and a half. You're over. Under is 46, 4:30 tomorrow. First game of your divisional weekend. Slickster. Who you got?

[Slick]

Well, first of all, best weekend of football of the year. Divisional round is the best. You'll see the best games and the best action at Mile High. Big D. Well, Buffalo ended Denver's season last year 31 to 7. However, Denver's won 13 of their last 14 at home. This will be their first playoff game in a decade, so the fans will be frothing at the mouth and foaming. But Josh Allen, right foot, left knee and throwing hand in. Damage, obviously. 14 bills are on the injury report. Denver D, though. Number one in sacks, 68. Number one in red zone. Efficiency as well. Inside the 20, deafening crowd noise. What else could possibly go wrong, right? VO Nick's playing well. The quarterback, wide receiver, Courtland Sutton. I gotta tell you, I'm gonna go with the Bills based on all of that And I'll tell you why. Josh Allen is the intangible. I also know I gotta catch Erin, so I know she's gonna not go with Buffalo because she can't stand them. But I could be wrong, but that's what I'm thinking. And you know what? I think the Bills are going to do it. I think they're destined. I actually like that Josh Allen story a little bit earlier with his wife there wearing that Denver, that Denver jacket. So I think he's got a little more motivation from that as well. And I think the story will turn out that Josh Allen and the Bills will exit Denver on the plane with the win. So, Big D, I will gladly take the one and a half that Denver's laying on as Buffalo travels in on the road. And I like the Bills and they'll deal with the crowd noise and they run the ball down their throat. And I think that James Cook is going to have a big day for them. So Buffalo Bills for Slick.

[Damon]

All right, Slick's got Buffalo plus one and a half over Denver. Aaron, I'll come to you next. Who you got in game number one?

[Aaron]

I don't know, Slick. This would be a much different matchup of Trevor Lawrence didn't throw two interceptions last week. The Bills would not be here otherwise. That's the reason I'm going to go with the the Denver Broncos here. I'm going to take the one and a half at home. The rested dog, Buffalo's defense is not the best in the red zone. They let Jacksonville convert three times out of four last week and five and nine on third downs. I think Denver's going to make some noise here. Their defense is top five across a lot of metrics in the NFL and they can get away with relying on them if need be. And Bo Nicks likes to come alive in the second half, so it's going to come down probably to the last drive, but I'm going to take the home Dogs.

[Damon]

All right, Aaron's going to take Denver minus one and a half. The home favorite, Denver minus one and a half. Jim, game number one. It's a tough one. They've split the first picks here. Who are you going to join, Slick or your daughter?

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Well, I gotta tell you, I will be taking the Broncos at home. Okay.

[Damon]

Okay.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Gotta be taking them. Bo Nix is comfortable running and gunning and I'm telling you, he's going to be doing a lot of that this game. You have to to figure that Josh Allen is a little banged up from last week and you know What? The Denver defense is ranked number two in the league. I think they're going to give him a tough time. So Sean Payton against the head coach of the Buffalo Bills. I don't think there's any contest at all. I think between a superior head coach in Sean Payton and arrested top notch defense. Take the Broncos at home giving the one and a half.

[Damon]

All right. Denver minus one and a half. Good analysis. There could be a coaching mismatch. I have to tell you I'm not a part of this. But I'll just tell you quickly. I don't see how Denver's not favored by more than one and a half. How are they not three? Just given the fact that they're at home here in a divisional round off a bye. I'll tell you. I don't know. I'm with Slick. You gave me Buffalo in this game.

[Slick]

Game.

[Damon]

It looks like the much harder play. So I'm gonna. I'll take Buffalo in this one. All right. Game number two, the most bet so far game of the weekend is this game. San Francisco has more tickets than anybody else. Bet plus seven. Seattle and San Francisco. Seattle's home, a seven point favorite. You're over. Under is 45, slick. Game number two. Who you going?

[Slick]

Big D. The 12th man at Lumen Field in Seattle is the real deal. The noise is deafening and nothing will be finer than seeing the Niners go out for Slick. Because you know, I'm not a Niners fan. I also think the spread is a little fishy. The play I think is Seattle minus seven. That's for me, big D. It's their second meeting in three weeks. Obviously not having George Kittle for the 49ers is a huge difference. We were talking earlier. Paul knows his football. He says that's at least one point right there. And I agree, maybe two. There's a big intangible there. Brock Purdy, I think think his time has come. I don't trust Sam Donald 100%. Not since you and I saw him against New England and he was seeing ghost when we were at that game years ago, you remember, but. And he's got a little dinged up oblique as well. But I think they'll come out, they'll do good. Their defense is so strong. It's the highest scoring defense in football this year. And they only allow 32% conversion rate on third down as well. So I'm going to take the Seahawks at home laying the seven and I think they might be on their road to the super bowl this year for the Seattle Seahawks.

[Damon]

All right, slick Scott, Seattle -7. Aaron, where are you going in game two?

[Aaron]

I absolutely hate picking Sam Darnold, but you cannot deny that this team is really hard to go against right now. They beat the 49ers 13 to 3 just a few weeks ago. They're on a seven game winning streak. Their defense, like Slick said, can force a lot of pressure, especially on Brock Purdy. This defense has 47 sacks and 18 interceptions this season. And Brock Purdy threw two interceptions last week. So we could definitely see a repeat this week. Plus, the Niners are really banged up like Slick said. George Kittle out for the season. I think the 49ers are going to go home this weekend. And Sam Darnold is still questionable with that oblique. But even if he's not on the field, I think they're still going to shut out the 49ers.

[Damon]

All right, Seattle -7 for Aaron. Jim, where are you going to go in this game?

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

I will be going the opposite of you guys, and I will be going with the 49ers. All right?

[Damon]

Okay.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Okay. I. You know, I guess as a Jets fan.

[Aaron]

You know my card here.

[Slick]

Wow.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

If you know anything about Sam Darnold, New York, he finds a way to get on the injury report this week. His oblique is bothering him. I don't know about anybody else, but I could just stand up and my oblique is bothering me. Some type of excuse to, you know, have a way out. You know what? I don't think he's going to get out of it this time.

[Damon]

All right. All right. All right, Jim, taking San Francisco plus seven. So you're split there with these two. All right, that's good.

[Rick Delgado]

I like it.

[Damon]

Game number three, Houston and New England. New England minus three and a half. Slick, quick. Where you going?

[Slick]

I don't know. Houston's D looks very good. Danielle Hunter, 15 sacks. Number three in takeaways with 29 this year. And defense does win championships. Big D. But it's tough for me to bet against Drake May. He's had a great year. Almost 4,400 yards, 31 touchdowns, only eight picks. I think that the spread is a little light for me. It's only three.

[Vinnie Mack]

Right.

[Slick]

And I like New England. I think they win that game probably by three or four. So give me the Patriots. I'm gonna go with them. I think Vrabel gets his stuff done.

[Damon]

All right. We're using an official line of three and a half because that's what it is. New England minus three and a half. So Slick takes New England minus three and a half. Aaron, what do you got in this one?

[Aaron]

I like that little line push. I'm going to take the Patriots here minus the three and a half over the Texans. It's really hard not to pick them considering how strong they've been. They've won 10 games in a row. But I think the winning stops here. The Patriots dominate at home. Their defense has produced six accents last week and they only allowed the Chargers three points. And Houston only allowed the the Steelers six points last week. But the Patriots know how to disrupt quarterbacks. They've won 11 consecutive games as a favorite since the season opener against the Raiders. This game is definitely going to be a defensive struggle, but I think New England pulls it out.

[Damon]

All right, New England minus three and a half for Aaron as well. We're gonna. Are we gonna make it? Three, two, trio here. Jim, who you got in this game?

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

I have the Patriots in this game.

[Vinnie Mack]

Nice.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

If you watched the Texans against the Steelers last week and you saw what their quarterback did, what Stroud looked like he a deer in the headlights. And they're also not going to have their top receiver Nico Collins, who's out with a concussion.

[Damon]

Yep.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

So I think that that's a major problem for them. I know, I know. The defense travels well. The Texans have a great defense. They will keep it close. But I expect the patriots, who are 13 and five against the spread this year, to cover the three points and win.

[Damon]

All right, there you go. All three of you on New England. We'll keep an eye on that one. Final game. Rams go to Chicago. Soldier Field. Slick. Who you got here real quick?

[Slick]

Big D. I know we're tight on time. I like the best says let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. It's gonna snow in Chicago. I like that run game of DeAndre Swift and Kyle Manungai, that one two punch. And I know Rearon's gonna take her Rams. So give me the Bears getting four and a half at home at Soldier Field.

[Damon]

Bears getting three and a half at Soldier Field. Aaron, who you got in this game?

[Aaron]

I'm gonna take the Bears. I'm actually going with you. It's hard for me to take the Rams here considering they've been playing a little too close for my line liking. And it's hard to go into 20 degree weather in Chicago from sunny LA. Not an easy task given how well Caleb Williams has been running that offense. So I'm gonna go with the Bears plus four and a half. They're not gonna win though. Not gonna Win.

[Damon]

All right. Three and a half plus three and a half.

[Slick]

Cheese edge here. The cheese grater over here.

[Damon]

All right, Jim, finish it up quick. Who you got here?

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

All right, well, I'm taking the Rams because Matthew Stafford is going to be wearing scuba gear like he used to wear when he was on the Lions.

[Slick]

Yeah, they played an adult.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

The Rams are first in the league with 30 and a half points per game while giving up 20 and a half. It will be the experience and coaching of Stafford that allow the Rams to lay the three and a half and cover for the win.

[Damon]

All right, Jim's got the Rams minus three and a half there.

[Slick]

Ben Johnson. Give me Ben Johnson.

[Damon]

There's your divisional odds makers for Friday night. Take us out, friend. We'll wrap it up from the America first warehouse when we get back right after this. Thanks to Jim for joining us on the set. Slick and Aaron, great job. We'll see who wins. We'll post everybody's picks on social media. All right, live from Studio 6P. We'll wrap it up on a Friday night right after this.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

He.

[Damon]

Sa.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. Final segment of the week.

[Damon]

Boo.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

We hate that. We're having fun. And now we're going to talk to Patriot Philip. Patriot Philip. Thanks for coming down to the American Stars Warehouse. Let's hear it for Patriot Philip. Now, Philip, it looks like we're having a bit of a reunion here. Why don't you tell us your story? I am a January 6th who went.

[Vinnie Mack]

To prison, and I'd like to.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

I. I was convicted by a rigged jury and they offered me a plea deal of 41 to 51 months.

[Vinnie Mack]

I wound up not taking it.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

And while I was in prison, that's the first time I met Enrique Tarrio. And we were, I call it torture, torture.

[Vinnie Mack]

Together with box cuffs on diesel therapy trips which were 14, 15 hours long. Box cuffs, every movement of that van, it felt like your forearms were going.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

To bust and break. Now, what does that mean? Does that mean you're cuffed down on a cuff, Cuffed around the waist, and.

[Vinnie Mack]

It'S a box that goes over the.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Wrist cuffs so you can't move whatsoever. And it's, you know, it's very painful. And this went on for hours and hours on diesel therapy rides, moving us from one prison to the next. I heard they moved you to a town called Warsaw, Virginia, and then back to the D.C. gulag and then maybe even further away so your lawyers and your family couldn't come and see. Is that true?

[Vinnie Mack]

Right.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

All the way to Kentucky And I'm from Queens, New York.

[Aaron]

Wow.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Absurd. Absurd. You must have been going out of your mind on election night. You know, we were very happy.

[Slick]

We were.

[Vinnie Mack]

You know, I watched the pardon on.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

The prison TV and 30 minutes later.

[Vinnie Mack]

His Excellency President Trump signed the pardon.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

And they were releasing us. And within 30 minutes. Really? They let you go that quickly? Well, we have to do paperwork, but.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yes, they open the door.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Wow. Let me ask you this. Trump's got three years left. Do you think he can clean house the way he needs to so that people like you don't have to go through that again? Patriotic Americans getting railroaded.

[Vinnie Mack]

Absolutely.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

He's going to do it.

[Vinnie Mack]

He's going to drain that swamp, that judicial swamp.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

These judges, these corrupt judges and, you know, these political pundits.

[Vinnie Mack]

Absolutely. You know, the law fair is going to end.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Absolutely. Philip, I'm sorry you went through it, but God bless you. Thank you. Can you please look at that camera and say, take it away, Big D.

[Damon]

Take it away, Big D. All right, Junior, with another patriot here at the America first warehouse.

[Vinnie Mack]

Yeah.

[Damon]

Live from Studio 6B. Last segment of the night, try to get to everybody here as quickly as I can. Paul Nolan, I'll start with you. What else is on your news radar?

[Paul Nolan]

Well, this is, this comes really from the Rick Delgado playbook. CNN is having a field day with the good economic numbers and the host doesn't look too thrilled. So it's cut six. Aaron, let this one speak for itself.

[Damon]

In their monthly budget. So let's just say you're buying a $500,000 home, you're putting 20% down. A year ago, your monthly payments were almost $2,700 for principal and interest. Now they're around $2,400. Now, that might not sound like that much. It's about $260 difference. But over the course of a year.

[Vinnie Mack]

You'Re talking about $3,000 less in interest.

[Damon]

Over the course of a loan, over $90,000.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

So that's huge. Right.

[Damon]

That's less money going to the bank, more for everything else in life. Now, all of this comes after the White House has really started to focus more on this issue of housing affordability. Right. The President wants, wants to ban large institutional investors from scooping up single family homes. And significantly, he announced plans to have.

[Vinnie Mack]

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac buy $200.

[Slick]

Billion of mortgage bonds. And experts are saying that those efforts.

[Damon]

From the President, they're already helping to drive down mortgage rates, which of course is encouraging.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Yeah.

[Vinnie Mack]

And again, it's.

[Damon]

Yeah.

[Paul Nolan]

Not bad, right?

[Damon]

Yeah.

[Paul Nolan]

We're seeing, you know, the CPI and the inflation number.

[Vinnie Mack]

All the numbers are going exactly where they.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

Right.

[Rick Delgado]

And any. And they, and they've talked about how it's going to really start to kick up in the earlier part of this year, maybe a couple more months down the road. But that also speaks to consumer confidence. Right. If people start to see a little bit more money in their pockets, in their, in their wallets, they're going to.

[Paul Nolan]

Spend more, especially lower prices.

[Rick Delgado]

Right.

[Paul Nolan]

Did I see GDP was 5.55? I know you're usually on top of. Yeah, things are moving in the right direction. We've all been, you know, really bullish on 2026, thinking the market's going to crank. We're watching businesses come back. We're watching manufacturing grow. We're seeing plants being revitalized. We're seeing job market here coming back. You know, this, this could be the beginning of American greatness all over again. Unless the left destroy it again. So.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

All right.

[Damon]

Eight minutes to the hour. Live from Studio 6B, Kevin Downey Jr. I know you got a story left on what's going on with the Philly district attorney and I want to get to that because at least finally we found somebody that Larry Krasner wants to put in jail. Unfortunately, it's federal law enforcement. So what's. Tell me about this story?

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

All right. I should read a brief portion of this in my broadcast's voice. Philadelphia DA Larry Krasner, who's a complete communist animal, appeared alongside other local officials to say, we're throwing ice people in jail. But you're right, D. This guy will let every animal out. Everybody, everybody. This is the guy who danced when he said, where is Sanctuary City? Where's. And about 13 hours later, a young, I think she was 12 years old, a girl was raped by an illegal immigrant. So that put that, that shut him up for a while. But he's telling. He's the temp. We're going after you. You come here, we're going to put you in jail. And I was saying to Patriot Diane early earlier, the reason they're defending the illegal immigrants is because the illegal immigrants are the crux of their plan. The globalists can't take over if they can't flood the nation with third worlders who are going to live up, live for free and steal whatever they can and vote Democrat for the rest of their lives, why wouldn't they? They're getting rich. This is the plan. Everyone sees it. Watch. This will be the fight. This will Be the fight. They're going to do everything they can, Big D to defend these people. And they want so badly to put ICE in jail. They just want that, that, that rah, rah moment. They'd love to see ICE get killed, but, yeah, this is everything America does not stand for. And this is everything that they're all trying to do. The big blue toilet towns have been preparing this moment for decades. That's why the big blue toilet towns are big blue toilet towns. They needed crime, they needed corruption, and that's where it comes from. And this guy, I tell you, man, he's one of the worst. He lets them all out.

[Damon]

Well, we found somebody he doesn't want to let out, unfortunately. Like I said, it's federal law enforcement, so. Good for Larry Krasner. Delgado's got a story left.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, I got a couple actually. I'm gonna go with this one though, Damon. This one because he's one of our favorite guys in the Trump administration. I'm talking about Stephen Miller and according to this, his former. His former professor over at Duke. This, this coming from an interview just the other day on WXXI News and NPR affiliate. His political science professor, Hein Gromans had this to say about Stephen Miller. This is cut number one. You gotta check this out. Cut one.

[Rick Delgado]

Was he a good student, by the way?

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

I'm very good. Very good student.

[Damon]

Yeah.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah. So there you have a little fun fact.

[Paul Nolan]

Wow.

[Rick Delgado]

About our favorite. Isn't that crazy? Yeah. It just goes to prove if you put your mind to something like Stephen Miller did, man, you can achieve anything. Especially in this country.

[Damon]

Oh, absolutely. For sure. But the call of who would be the president, president in 2003.

[Slick]

Yeah, that's crazy.

[Kevin Downey Jr.]

That's a pretty serious kreskin.
