Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Federal Agent-Involved Shootings and Media Narratives

Segment starting ~05:14 – 13:16

• Minneapolis Incident: Discussion centers on the ICE agent-involved fatal shooting of activist Renee Nicole Goode in Minneapolis.
• Host and guests’ consensus: Media and left-wing rhetoric have radicalized individuals like Goode, resulting in tragic but, they argue, predictable confrontations.
• Pointed critique: The Minneapolis mayor and Democratic officials are accused of vilifying ICE agents and inciting hostility, fostering environments where law enforcement must make split-second, life-or-death decisions under threat.
• Vinnie Mac:

  “It's just a terrible feeling of a very unfortunate act and a result of brainwashing of the left and getting people agitated.” (05:42)

• Rick Delgado:

  “If you watch that video and claimed that the officer was the only one in the wrong, I mean you're just lying to yourself.” (10:22)

• Emerging info: The ICE agent involved has a prior history of being struck by a vehicle during enforcement, which influenced his response.
• Tim Pool’s analysis cited: Detailed breakdown of the video showing Goode’s car maneuvered toward the officer.

Memorable Quote:

“This is the type of thing they encourage and they want to happen, so they can then take the issue and turn it into some ridiculous thing. That’s what it's become.” – Vinnie Mac (06:47)

2. Political Fallout & Law Enforcement Under Siege

Segment ~15:07 – 20:32

• Media & political class reaction:
  • J.D. Vance and others sharply criticize mainstream media for misleading headlines and endangering ICE and law enforcement.
  • Democrats in Congress and the local mayor escalate rhetoric post-incident, which the hosts say puts all officers at even more risk.

Notable Clip (27:00):

“The way that the media by and large has reported this story has been an absolute disgrace. And it puts our law enforcement officers at risk every single day... She was trying to ram this guy with her car. He shot back, he defended himself.” – J.D. Vance, Vice President, addressing media framing

3. Legislative Response & Intra-Party Friction

Segment ~19:13 – 21:36

• Congress votes to restrict executive military action:
  • Five GOP senators (including Josh Hawley, Murkowski, Collins, Rand Paul, and Todd Young) join Democrats, pushing for legislation requiring congressional approval for further action in Venezuela.
  • Host criticism: Move seen as undermining the president’s flexibility in foreign policy and national defense.

“They are undermining our ability to keep us all safe like it seems like they always do.” – Damon (22:17)

4. Five-Point Democratic Playbook Analysis

Segment ~65:19 – 71:19

• Vinnie Mac outlines the recurring Democratic strategy:
  1. Create the problem (policy, crisis).
  2. Attack those trying to solve it.
  3. Wait for (or hope for) an incident.
  4. Market/exploit the incident for maximum political gain.
  5. Elect further radical leaders by riling/dividing the base.

“Everything they do follows this system. Create the problem... Then attack anyone that tries to solve the problem... Hope that leads to an incident, market the incident, and use it to elect more radicals.” – Vinnie Mac (65:30)

5. International News

Russia-Ukraine Peace Efforts & the Greenland Connection

Segment ~38:36 – 47:16

• 20-point peace proposal rejected by Russia. The hosts express skepticism about Russia's intentions, speculating that broader U.S. strategic moves (e.g., Greenland) are part of preparing for heightened tensions with Russia and China.
• Analysis:
  • Ukraine’s security dilemma remains; possible U.S. defense expansion via Greenland seen as a check on Russian and Chinese ambitions.
  • The show’s tone: Trump administration is “prepared” and assertive in these geopolitical contests.

“If you really think it's an issue, just go defend it.” – Citing analyst Bonchi on the need to defend Greenland rather than “own it” (46:04)

Iranian Regime Crisis

Segment ~72:17 – 80:28

• Escalating protests and U.S. threats:
  • Recent mass protests in Iran prompt President Trump to issue stern warnings.
  • Regime reportedly cracks down with assistance from groups like Hezbollah.
  • Hosts argue eliminating groups like Hezbollah is key to supporting Iranian democratic protesters and countering regime oppression.
• Damon:

  “We must not squander the golden opportunity to topple this apocalyptic regime.” (77:17, referencing American Thinker article)

---

6. Law Enforcement vs. State Government Tensions

Segment ~55:28 – 60:22

• Minnesota Governor Tim Walz threatens to use the National Guard against ICE:
  • Hosts blast this as insurrection, with calls for invoking the Insurrection Act.
  • Concern expressed about the breakdown of federalism and potential for governors becoming martyrs to the left.

“You rob a bank, the police come after you. The governor of the state says, ‘I'm calling the National Guard in to stop the police from arresting you.’ That’s what’s happening here.” – Vinnie Mac (60:09)

---

7. Military and Economic Policy Announcements

Segment ~87:34 – 92:03

• Trump proposes increasing the military budget to $1.5 trillion for national defense, citing tariff revenue.
  • Panel generally supports the idea given current global tensions and China’s military advances.
  • Criticism of defense contractors’ inefficiency and profit-seeking via stock buybacks instead of reinvestment in military capacity.

“If the tariff tariffs give us the ability to execute the plan that he just said...we were never in a position to even have that conversation, let alone it actually happening.” – Vinnie Mac (89:53)

---

8. Bonus: Sports & Lighter Moments

Scattered throughout the episode (~14:32, ~32:53, ~49:31, ~80:28)

• Slick Rick recaps college football playoffs and pokes fun at Marco Rubio considering a fictional Miami Dolphins coaching job (35:00).
• Banter about sports fashion and light ribbing remains a trademark.
• Amusement over Stephen A. Smith’s take on law enforcement:

  "That means you could have shot the tires." – Stephen A. Smith, lampooned by the cast (51:17–53:51)

---

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• J.D. Vance on Media:

  “Everybody who's been repeating the lie that this is some innocent woman who was out for a drive in Minneapolis ... you should be ashamed of yourselves, every single one of you.” (27:00)

• On the ICE shooting:

  “This is exactly what they wanted and I'll prove it to you...” – Rick Delgado referencing the encouragement of radical activism (11:24)

• On Iran:

  “Iran outsources repression...The fact that we haven't let [Israel] finish the job completely...that’s why that mattered.” – Vinnie Mac (77:34)

[C]

I'm doing great, thank you very much. I checked wardrobe before I got ready. I saw you two were wearing something very bland, so I decided to wear something very bright and colorful, very Hawaiian. Part of the Tom Selleck edition. Thank you.

[A]

Did you. Was it tomato soup or what soup was it that they gave you that shirt with? Where did you order it from?

[C]

Well, the good thing about this shirt is it can work as a pillowcase, it could work as a tablecloth, it could work as a towel, and it works as a shirt. You can wear it. You can do. Use anything. You can do anything. With it multi.

You can even wallpaper my mother's house with that stuff. That looks terrible.

[C]

I love this shirt.

[B]

Oh, my goodness.

How.

[A]

What's the temperature down there?

[C]

It's beautiful. Absolutely gorgeous. It's about 78, sunny blue skies. And I did get some sun because the, you know, the sun is so strong. You just walk around a little bit and you get. You're catching rays.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Feels great. You know, when you get a little sun, you feel like a little extra energy. So I'm feeling good.

[A]

You know, my wife sent me something today on Zillow because my daughter's going to Florida for something with dance. And she's like, oh, here's where she's staying. And so I look at the listing on Zillow and it's this beautiful, huge, beautiful house. Her and a bunch of the dance girls are staying there with their, with their choreographer or whatever. It's a bunch of them and it's. I'm looking at the house and it's just beautiful inside. Basement, backyard, pool. But it's listed at like 426,000. I'm. I text my wife, LOL. Move that to New York. It's like 1.6 million. It's just so ridiculous.

[C]

You need to come down here now, you know, get that daughter in college and then come down and into the tax free state of Florida. Enjoy the benefits and the perks of.

[B]

Being here and hang out with Vin and get some of those shirts.

[C]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I got a whole lineup of shirts. We have a double XX large for you, all ready to go for. Who are you? XXX large. I'm not sure. Triple X?

[A]

No. Well, two xl. But it has to be T for the tall. I can't just be 2 XL. That's not going to work. It has to be tall.

[B]

Yeah. Because then it looks like a belly shirt.

[A]

Yeah. 2xlt. When I go to DXL, which is the big store there? That's what I go. So.

[B]

Oh, you're so. It's like. You ever see.

[A]

We're off to a rousing start here.

[B]

I don't know if this was. Movie was before your time, but. But Rodney Dangerfield, Back to School.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

You never saw it?

[A]

I don't think so.

[B]

I was gonna say, so you're big and fat. That's from the movie. But you wouldn't get that reference because you don't understand. You don't understand comedic movies.

[A]

No, I don't. Not. Not your comedic. That's for sure.

[B]

So it's Rodney.

[A]

Well, let's start here, especially off of yesterday. Well, then you weren't on the show last night. And obviously we talked a lot about what happened in Minneapolis yesterday. So before I get to Oregon tonight. Oregon or Oregon. Am I going to get in trouble for saying this wrong? But. Well, anyways, how about Portland? Why don't you give me your thoughts on what we saw yesterday in Minneapolis. All the guys here had. We talked it through pretty thoroughly last night. What's your take?

[C]

Probably the best way to represent how I felt was what J.D. vance said today. You know, why would. Well, first off, we'll back up for a second. All of the rhetoric and the narrative and everything that's been happening has basically encouraged regular people to do really stupid things. And that's what this woman did. But she's got kids. Like, why would she put herself in jeopardy? One, to get arrested and be away from her kids. I mean, apparently her husband passed away a few years ago, so she was a single parent. Why would she put herself in jeopardy? And then, two, it just is a horrible incident at every level. I feel bad for this woman. Nobody deserves to die. But what she did, you know, put everybody in harm's way. And she was the lead car blocking these guys, and they were all, you know, planning to do it. So my view of it is just. It's just a terrible feeling of a very unfortunate act and a result of brainwashing of the left and getting people agitated. This is right there. Right. With exactly how they're operating and what. I also think they wanted this to happen.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

This is the type of thing they encourage and they want to happen so they can then take the issue and turn it into some ridiculous thing. And that's what it's become. You see the two completely different versions of people viewing the video. I mean, two completely different views of it. That's the brainwashing effect.

[A]

Yeah. And that brings us to tonight, Breaking NEWS Federal agents shoot two people in Oregon day after ICE agent killed Minneapolis Activist mom this is from the New York Post. Tonight, federal agents allegedly shot two people in Portland Thursday afternoon, just one day after ICE agent gunned down Renee Nicole Good in Minnesota during a chaotic operation. According to a report, the shooting erupted near East Burnside and 141st Avenue. Portland city councilors told KATU, which I guess is the local station there. FBI is investigating. Officials have not released information on the shooting or the condition of the two people shot. Portland City Council President Elena Purdle Gurney said the pair were still alive, the outlet reported. Sources told ABC News that the agents involved in the shooting are members of U.S. custom and Border Protection. This woman yesterday was 37. She was shot dead by an ICE agent Wednesday afternoon with footage from the scene appearing to show her striking the officer with her car before he opened fire through the vehicle's front window. President Trump and Homeland Security officials said the unidentified agent who opened fire did so in self defense after being struck by Good, whom they labeled a domestic terrorist. So that's the news as of right now out of, out of Portland. That's about as much as we know. That's from about an hour ago in the New York Post. Sure social media will be lighting up with this all night. So I'm sure as the show goes by with the two hours, we will certainly get more information on what this is. But to Vince Point and Delgado, we talked about a lot last night. Getting back to yesterday's, more and more is coming out, number one about this woman, that she's no innocent. Certainly, as we said last night, she was no innocent driver of just a car who happened to be there. No, she was the, she was the leader of the resistance, I guess is the quickest way to put it. But we're also finding out more. I saw today about this officer that this is not the first time that this officer has dealt with moving cars.

[B]

No.

[A]

And being struck. And so again, I said this yesterday and I say it again tonight, I don't know from, from the people on the left, these lunatics on the left who jump to these conclusions. What is the officer supposed to do in the milliseconds that he has to decide what her intentions are? How is he supposed to do that? And now we find out. His background obviously played a part in his mental decision making here in the split second that he had to do it. I showed you the video last night of those two officers from about a year ago and the split second that they had and the decision they made, what happened to them or at least one of them, he lived, thank God. But these guys have no time to make these life or death decisions. And again, if you watch that video and claimed that the officer was the only one in the wrong, I mean you're just lying to yourself. There's multiple angles where clearly she hits him on his way and he doesn't know if she's going to continue forward or turn to the right. He has no idea.

[B]

You're right. And, and you know what's amazing about this too, I was watching, I was on social media this afternoon. I posted this breakdown that Tim Pool did. He does a great. It's about three and a half minutes. Definitely worth your time. I posted it on my, my X account where he goes through and he enlarges some of the video sections and you see her front wheels, front wheel drive SUV spin in the wet or icy road and the, the tire goes from pointing away from the officer now pointing towards the officer.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And then making a right basically into his line. And at that time his, his weapon was still not drawn. It is amazing how quickly he was able to draw it once that car lurched forward towards him and he banged out two shots.

[A]

But again, I said it last night, she's a, she is a fleeing felon at that point with a, in, in a, in a, in a. What would be considered a deadly weapon. Obviously the car. Yeah.

[B]

And back to what Vin said about them wanting this. They did want this. This is exactly what they wanted and I'll prove it to you. If you want to go back in time to July 7th, I found this Axios article. Democrats told to get shot for the anti Trump resistance. Believe it or not, they were telling their people, their base to go and get shot in Axios. It's in there, it's in their, it's on their website. They have not changed this article at all. It, the grassroots want more. Some have suggested what we really need here is to be willing to get shot when visiting ICE facilities or federal agencies. A third House Democrat told Axios. So it's coming from the top. It's coming from the leaders of the Democrat Party, the radical ones who are saying, you know what, we need to amp this up. And it goes back to July. And we know they were doing it before that as well. They've been doing it ever since about 2016 when Donald Trump came down that escalator. They've been ramping this up. This is what they want and they're going to get it good and Hard. Unfortunately for this lady, who is no angel, you could say. Oh, she was a single mom. Two of her kids lived in a different state. Why is that? Usually when moms lose custody, there's a pretty good reason for it.

[C]

That's called one other point. These officers have been attacked left and right for a year. And you know, they're just on edge completely because they're being attacked by rocks are being thrown at them. All sorts of things are being thrown at them. They're being attacked. They've been harassed, everything. They're on super high alert. They don't know that it's just some innocent person who's driving their truck that might be running them over. They're dealing with lunatics on a daily basis. I mean, that's just a terrible, stressful thing to go through.

[A]

All right. Live from Studio 6, speed. Just getting started on a Thursday night. Vinnie Max in West Palm Beach. Rick Delgados here in New York. Slick Rick will be here to do some sports. Just getting started. Glad you're in. We're back right after this. Popping on up, 17 past the hour. Live from Studio 6P, we are at the. Did I say this in the opening segment? I don't think I did. Where? The America first warehouse. Thanks to Joe the Box and his staff for having us in short notice, of course, as we get the New York studio back on track, back online, which hopefully we'll have by Monday. Rick, though, gotto here, he's gonna do some new slickster, is now here. He's gonna do some sports Slick, how are you?

[D]

I'm doing good.

[A]

Big D. Big, long time meeting tonight.

[D]

Yeah, it was a lot. Last seven hours I've been live or on camera. It's been a very busy night.

[A]

Oh, really?

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

What were you doing today?

[D]

It was a zoom call for another organization I am the vice president of. Yeah, no, nothing special. TV wise. I'd have to run that by you anyway, right?

[A]

Well, no. Okay. No, you can do whatever you want.

[D]

I can freelance.

[B]

I gotta say thank you.

[A]

Cool, though. You just include me, Delgado. Just me.

[B]

I. I gotta say, I love the jacket and the. The very wide collar.

[D]

Yes, thank you.

[A]

Well, it always looks good. Looks good.

[B]

I like it.

[D]

Rock and roll, baby.

[B]

Ready to dance.

[D]

I got the shoes and everything.

[B]

I'm ready to go.

[A]

It doesn't look like he's going to a hula dance after the show, which is good. So 18 past the hour. You know, Vin, to your point and to what Delgado was talking about in the first segment, Carol Markowitz today in The New York Post headline, democrats fan flames of ICE hatred and put everyone at risk. The tragic death of Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis did not have to happen. Lay all of the blame, though, at the feet of Democrat elected officials and their media buddies who fanned the flames of violent protests for the last 12 months. This was the inevitable outcome of months of rhetorical escalation by Democrats bent on demonizing ICE agents doing the job of enforcing our immigration laws. With Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry among the worst and chief offenders. Last January, Frye specifically prohibited the Minneapolis Police Department from assisting ICE in any way. He issued orders back banning ICE from city owned land parking lots, accused its agents of using fear based tactics and operations that undermine community trust. Last month, when federal agents arrived in Minneapolis to investigate allegations that Somalia immigrants had scammed the federal government out of billions of dollars, Fry repeatedly rallied against the Trump administration's probe. He said, we've got to stand up for the city's Somali residents. Right now they're under attack. You're damn right I'll stick up for him, this guy says. Since the shooting, Fry's done nothing but raised the temperature. By the way, the governor has too, in his teetering city. Get the F out of Minneapolis, he demanded of ICE agents within hours of the shooting. We do not want you here. Federal officers put their lives on the line every single day to enforce the laws that Congress has passed. They trained for the harrowing life and death situations they must regularly face, like having someone aim a car at them. The many videos of the incident yesterday tell a clear story of an agent defending himself against a 2 ton machine barreling towards him. Good was radicalized to believe that ICE agents are monsters, that she must fight. She imagined her refusal to comply with federal officers commands made her brave, made her part of the resistance, made her a fighter, not a criminal wielding a deadly weapon, which of course she was, and a fugitive to justice at that point. What led to this horrible mistake? Her own leftist comrades. And that's just a little bit from Carol Markowitz today in the New York Post. But Vin, you get the idea.

[C]

Yeah, I get the idea. And it brings me back to George Floyd. It brings me back to Hands up, don't shoot. It brings me back to the riot and all the things that the left used to get the election and create all kinds of craziness so that they kept power. But what happened through all of those riots, through all of that discourse, were police officers getting attacked in a similar way, like these ICE officers. This is part of the playbook, the playbook is, you know, event. Let's go attack that event. And then they make these police officers, and in this case ICE officers who are police officers, you know, look like the bad guy. And they're not. They're the good guy. But they have done this over and over and over again. I mean, it's almost comical because we should just expect whatever is happening here, that this is how they're gonna handle things. I think the Trump administration, however, is pretty prepared for this in terms of the way they've been rebutting things and talking about it. You know, JD Vance today and others yesterday, I think Kristi Noem yesterday, and even Trump's reaction, I mean, they're on it, but that's what I see. It's consistent pattern of demonizing our law enforcement.

[A]

And now the Democrats, then I guess they want to stop Trump from doing whatever in policing Venezuela. That's their next move. Is that what I'm hearing?

[C]

You know, it's so sad. Yeah. They had a vote today in the House, and they tried to push through legislation so that they had to get. Pardon me, through Congress, had to get congressional approval to do any further military action. And here's the deal. Here's why this is so bad, why this is just terrible. The president, United States is maneuvering. He's got Venezuela, he's got other countries that he's making moves on. And then they see us, our Congress in action, trying to undermine our own president, and they realize, boy, he really can't do this stuff. He's got to go to Congress to do this or that. We're gonna know when he wants to do something. All of these things, the whole idea is for people not to know, you know, to do things if you need to do them militarily or otherwise, or even if it's an arrest or it's kind of the way the thing they did with Mondoro. But they're overreacting again to this entire issue because these. We knew the Democrats would. But our couple of our Republican senators went along with this and pushed the vote over the top, which is terrible. What's. I'm trying to look at all the names. Let's take a.

[A]

Let's take a guess at who the five were. Let's guess here.

[C]

Well, Josh. Holly's a surprise.

[A]

Not anymore. He's not.

[C]

Not anymore. Yeah, he's been. He's been pretty weak lately. But it's the usual suspects and Josh.

[A]

So Collins, Murkowski.

[B]

Yep. Mitch.

[C]

Yep.

[D]

Of course.

[A]

Of course. Can he go away? When is he Done.

[D]

He's gonna live there forever.

[B]

The frozen turtle.

[A]

I thought he was done. Didn't he retire?

[B]

Yeah, but he's still there.

[A]

Well, how can he be? What did. Marjorie Taylor Greene just left. It's the same date for everybody.

[B]

I think he's one of those types that, that, you know, he actually, he, he may have.

[A]

Well, he's not in that picture. You sure? I'm slamming.

[B]

He may not have. I don't know.

[A]

Oh, even if he's not.

[B]

Yeah. But you know what?

[A]

Who cares? Oh, those are the five.

[C]

No, I didn't see him in that.

[B]

Yeah, but you know what? He probably said. Yeah, it's okay. You guys, you guys can vote for this because he's got a. He's got to sign off on it.

[A]

Rand Paul, Josh Hawley, Murkowski Collins. And I have no idea who that is on the right. Is that Pat Sajak? No, No, I have no idea.

[C]

Todd Young. Todd Young. Yeah.

[A]

Okay. Well, there you go.

[C]

But Trump's just going to ignore this, as he should. I don't even know if it's legal, what they did. They passed it and we'll see, you know, what happens here. But at the end of the day, here's my big issue with all of this, is the president needs to have the ability to do things now. Going to war is a different story. You know, we get attacked on 9, 11, we went to Congress, we went to war. That was the end of it. When, when, when Iraq went into Kuwait, Bush Sr. Went to Congress, we declared war, we went to war. That was war. This is not war. So that they are. They are undermining our ability to keep us all safe like it seems like they always do.

[A]

[E]

Sam.

[A]

All right, live from Studio 6P. 30 minutes past the hour. Live in the chat, AstroTech2 says, My dog can hear Aaron's voice and he's barking. There you go. So I guess everybody can hear, including West Palm where Vinnie Mac is. Looks here, Rick, though. Rick Delgado is doing the news. We're not going to worry about that now.

[B]

I think I just, I think just during the breaks. I think that's what they're talking about.

[A]

Yeah.

[F]

Except I wasn't talking to the microphone during the breaks.

[B]

Maybe he just hears you in his own head.

[A]

That's okay. Things are working well. 30 minutes past the hour. Live from Studio 6B. Let's do some headline news, then we'll do some sports. Rick Delgado's got headlines. What's going on, Delgado?

[B]

Well, you could say there's a whole lot going on. So much going on. Let's get right to it, shall we? Because it all starts with what's been going down in Minnesota over the ice shooting. J.D. vance was talking about this today, railing against the media over the coverage of the Minnesota ice shooting, calling it an absolute disgrace. He said this earlier today in a press conference. Vance began the briefing referencing the CNN headline that read, outrage After Ice Officer Kills US Citizen in Minneapolis. And from there, he just kind of went, usually, now, now here, here's what I usually do. I usually try and get the best parts of these clips. But this entire two minutes, and I think 10 seconds is so strong from J.D. vance, there was nothing to cut out. You just got to listen to it, watch it and listen for yourself. Here's J.D. vance, the Vice president, taking the media to task. Check this out.

[G]

When I was actually walking out here, somebody sent me a photo of a CNN headline about what happened in Minneapolis. And this is the headline. I'm just going to read it. Outrage after ICE Officer Kills US Citizen in Minneapolis. Well, that's one way to put it. And that is the way that many people in the corporate media have put this attack over the last 24 hours. And I say attack very, very intentionally because this was an attack on federal law enforcement. This was an attack on law and order. This was an attack on the American people. The way that the media by and large has reported this story has been an absolute disgrace. And it puts our law enforcement officers at risk every single day. What that headline leaves out is the fact that that very ICE officer nearly had his life ended, dragged by a car six months ago, 33 stitches in his leg. So you think maybe he's a little bit sensitive about somebody ramming him with an automobile. What that headline leaves out is that that woman was there to interfere with a legitimate law enforcement operation in the United States of America. What that headline leaves out is that that woman is part of a broader left wing network to attack, to dox, to assault, and to make it impossible for our ICE officers to do their job. If the media wants to tell the truth, they ought to tell the truth. That a group of left wing radicals have been working tirelessly, sometimes using domestic terror techniques, to try to make it impossible for the President of the United States to do what the American people elected him to do, which is enforce our immigration laws. The President stands with ice. I stand with ice. We stand with all of our law enforcement officers. And part of that is recognizing that you people in the media, not everybody in this room, but many people in this room have been lying about this, this attack. She was trying to ram this guy with his, with her car. He shot back, he defended himself. He's already been seriously wounded in law enforcement operations before. And everybody who's been repeating the lie that this is some innocent woman who was out for a drive in Minneapolis when a law enforcement officer shot at her. You should be ashamed of yourselves, every single one of you.

[B]

Yeah, I mean, just strong, strong statement from the Vice President regarding this, the woman he's talking about, of course, Renee Nicole Goode, mother of three. Like I mentioned, she's got a couple kids in Colorado that she doesn't see. She's been dragging her six year old around two different states, moved to the country of Canada in 2024 with her partner after President Trump got elected. So you can tell there's a couple screws loose when it comes to this lady. And just a whole lot more. We're starting to find out she was a quote, unquote, warrior who was trained. So we're going to find out more and more about this woman. Renee Nicole Goode. I'm sure you're probably starting to see a lot of it start to come out, but here's the ICE agent here's video of that ICE agent JD Vance was talking about last year when he got dragged. Here it is. This is cut number two. Check this out. The ICE agent getting dragged. It's a little tough to see, but check this out. Cut number two.

[H]

ICE arrest in the Twin Cities is.

[C]

Leading to even more charges.

[D]

This home security video shows the driver taking off during a traffic stop, dragging a deportation officer with him. New at 10, WCCO's Uba Ali walks us through this video and the political firestorm behind it.

[E]

What began as a planned federal immigration arrest took a violent turn in this quiet Bloomington neighborhood and it was all caught on camera. According to a federal complaint, agents were executing a warrant for 39 year old Roberto Carlos Munoz. They say Munoz entered the country unlawfully and he also pled guilty to fourth degree criminal sexual conduct back in 2023 for abusing a minor. Tuesday morning agents pulled him over. Court documents say he repeatedly refused to comply before a federal agent took out his spring loaded window punch with his right hand and broke the driver's side rear window. These images show the officer's hand in the vehicle. In this video you can see the driver take off with the agent hanging from the car, dragging him 300ft through front yards. These graphic images show the aftermath. A bloody agent who needed 33 stitches for his significant cuts.

[B]

Yeah, so there you have it. The the agent who was involved in that shooting yesterday has a bit of a history of being assaulted with cars, unfortunately, just trying to do his job and keep the American people safe. And of course, what story about Minnesota wouldn't include this buffoon? I'm talking about Tim Waltz. Here he is denying using inflammatory language while also calling Kristi Noem an executioner. It's cut number three. Tim Waltz, the buffoon. Check him out.

[H]

They have determined the character of a 37 year old mom that they didn't even know, don't know. They've determined that the actions I'm not sure are done. I don't know. I've not used inflammatory terms of what happened. I've asked us to find the answers. The only way we find the answers is a thorough investigation. I don't have a predetermined notion. Yes, I saw the video. Yes, I saw that. But a thorough investigation, we'll see what happened before that. It will take all factors in and it will come up with a fair and just conclusion and we will accept that. Very, very difficult for Minnesotans to think in any way this is going to be fair. When Kristi Noem was judge, jury and Basically, executioner yesterday. That's very, very difficult to think that they were going to be fair.

[B]

Yeah. So he's not using inflammatory language at all. And of course, one more clip here. Damon putting a wrap on this story. Witness to the Minnesota vehicular assault on the ice officer here is a woman who was there, saw this whole thing unfold and gives you a pretty concise her view, at least of what she saw go down between the car and the ice officers. Cut number four. Check this out.

[A]

I clearly wanted her out of there because she was the main car leading the protest, is my understanding. I talked to another guy who was driving behind her, but she was. She was very. She was very successful in blocking traffic. She was doing what she was. What she was set out to do. And so they wanted to get her.

[E]

The hell out of there.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

So it looked like she was impeding ice vehicles, definitely.

[F]

Yeah, that was her goal.

[B]

Yeah, that was her goal.

[D]

There you go.

[A]

All right, we'll do some more sport. We'll do some more sports. We'll do some more news with Rick Delgado. Let's do some sports. Sports is brought to you by Mike Lindell, LFS xp. Use the promo code to use with the slickster. Slickster. What's going on?

[D]

Well, we got a big game tonight, Big D with college football playoffs. Miami and Ole miss right now. Second quarter just started. Ole Miss leads 7 to 3. However, Miami is in Ole Miss territory driving. That'd be number six, Ole Miss looking to take on Miami, number 10, knock them off and face the winner of tomorrow night's game, which we're going to pick in the oddsmakers. Coming up in a little bit later on Oregon and Indiana. So college football down to the Final Four, if you will. This is exactly what it is tonight and tomorrow night. So we can't pick tonight's game. Game. Because obviously I was a little bit late, but cool stuff just the same. And I don't know if you guys got.

[A]

I would have taken Miami tonight for my net worth if I. If I had to.

[D]

I like Miami.

[A]

And they're down.

[D]

They're down 7 to 3. But they're driving. They're on. They're on.

[B]

I. I would have picked Ole Miss.

[D]

Would you?

[A]

Well, that's.

[B]

Yeah. So I feel like. I feel like they've got a chip on their shoulder with Lane Kiffin leaving.

[A]

Odds makers don't care.

[D]

That's a good point. But, yeah, odds makers, they don't care about that. It's exactly right. Here's somebody who used to love Mike McDaniel, remember young coach, Miami used to like him. He lost his job today. Secretary of State Marco Rubio rub rules out taking the head coaching job of the Dolphins earlier today as well. Warner, Todd, Houston and Breitbart, they were moving him right in. Boy, Marco, they want to place him all over the place. Secretary of State Marco Rubio says he is ruling out taking the job of head coach for the Miami Dolphins. Rubio announced his firm decision in a post on X Thursday. I do not normally respond to online rumors, but feel the need to do so at this moment, he wrote in the message. I will not be a candidate for the currently vacant head coach and GM positions with the Miami Dolphins. While you never know what the future may bring, right now my focus must remain on events and also the precious archives of the United States of America, he explained. So it was all a bunch of material going back and forth. And Rubio does have a connection to the Dolphins. His wife Jeanette is a former Dolphins cheerleader and he is well known as a football fan. Rubio is of course delivering a lighthearted response to the recent Internet meme that the many tasks he has taken on in Donald Trump's administration, perhaps he could take on the Dolphins job. Along with joining Trump and cabinet as Secretary of the State, Rubio served as interim National Security Advisor and for a short time head coach of the United States of for International Development, the usaid. So pretty cool stuff there with that with Rubio.

[A]

I mean who knew that this guy was this funny, had such a great sense of humor. I would have never guessed this before he took this job. I mean he's been great in the job and man, he's funny.

[D]

It also shows his broad appeal that somebody would make that statement, have him on the Dolphins. I think it's kind of cool that he's really getting name recognition. He has really skyrocketed in my eyes.

[B]

Yeah, he really has taken off over.

[D]

The last six months year what he's done and he's got, he's got. Well, he already has a great current time, but I think future wise he's got a lot of aspirations.

[B]

Yeah. And I think J.D. vance is the one who said that. Marco Rubio is the funniest one in the cabinet.

[D]

I like those two together too. For a ticket. I like them both. And Kai Trump reveals surgery to address wrist injury after recent golf competition this is Jackson Thompson of Fox News. President Donald Trump's granddaughter Kai Trump revealed on social media Wednesday she underwent surgery to repair a wrist injury. Kai is an active golfer and made her LPGA debut in November at the Anika in Bel Air, Florida. Today I underwent left wrist surgery to address injuries to the stabilizing tissues of my ecu tendon and damage to my fibrocarticartilage complex. The surgery was successfully performed at the Lehigh Valley orthopedic institute by Dr. Thomas Graham, chief of Jefferson Orthopedics. I look forward to my rehab in the coming months. I am excited for the ability to play golf pain free. So perhaps she had a little pain big D when she had that rough LPGA debut. I'm not really sure there, but good story there. The team wore a bandage on her wrist during a recent interview on Logan Paul's podcast. Impaulsive. Trump finished in last place at the Annika but made a notable improvement in her second day of competition compared to her first day, improving by eight strokes. And anyway, she did everything she possibly could to won that tournament, but I have a feeling maybe that wrist injury was holding her back a little bit. Big day. And that's pretty much a wrap in sports there. Back to you.

[A]

I don't know if we can play this, Aaron, if you got this, but just one more little part from JD Vance today in the briefing room because I thought this was good. If this, let's see if this works.

[G]

Well, being part of the network doesn't justify being shot. But ramming an ice officer with your car, that's what justifies being shot. It's not a good thing, by the way. But when you force somebody to engage in self defense, it's almost a preposterous question. I'm not saying that funding some of this stuff justifies capital punishment. Nobody would suggest that the reason this woman is dead is because she tried to ram somebody with her car and that guy acted in self defense. That is why she lost her life and that is the tragedy. Now there may be other violations of the law and other penalties that are associated with those violations of the law. For example, if you want are funding violence against our law enforcement officers. I'm not a prosecutor. My guess is that's not the sort of thing that earns capital punishment, but it should sure as hell earn you a few years in prison if you're funding the effort to try to insult our law enforcement officers.

[A]

Yeah, yeah. Pretty good stuff from Vance today. He was good. Strong. All right, live from Studio 6PMore with Vinny Mac Rick Delgado right after this. All right, 13 to the hour. Live for Studio 6P on a Thursday night at the America First First Warehouse. Slick Rick's doing sports. Rick Delgado is doing our main headlines of the night. Vinnie Mac is in West Palm beach studio. Let's go back to Vinnie Mac. Vinnie Mac, what else is on your mind?

[C]

Well, I was reading today about the, the peace efforts between Russia and Ukraine and these have been ongoing. We have come up with so many plans to try and get this, this to work. The Latest is this 20 point peace proposal that conversations have been had with Russia, conversations have been had with Ukraine. It did seem like everybody was on the same page there. And it turns out that today the Russians, you know, just rejected it. They thought this was going backwards. It's, you know, part of an axis of evil. They, they came out with all sorts of nonsense. And frankly, the only caveat in this peace plan is that we have troops or a group of allocated troops there just to protect Ukraine so they can't attack again. And the Russians, you know, got freaked out over that. So it's either put Ukraine in, you know, NATO, make them a member, or provide them some security that they won't get attacked again by Russia. And it just says to me that Putin, Putin has no reason, no plan and no desire to make peace here. It just has turned it down at every step of the way. I'm no fan of Ukraine, I'm no fan of the corruption there. I'm no fan of a lot of things that go on in that place. But they were attacked by Russia. They went in there and attacked through the weak Biden administration. And we're trying to resolve it. And I think we have made every effort you possibly can to get this thing resolved. It just looks like Putin doesn't want to solve it. And I don't know what they expect. I mean, at some point it's only reasonable. This is how most every war ends, with some reasonable security so that the country that perpetrated the attack doesn't do it again and the country that agrees to the peace plan feels safe that it's not going to happen again. That's not like, this is not an unusual thing. This is quite normal. So I don't know where we go from here. I mean, you know, we could either just fully arm the Ukraine's and say, you know what? Okay, reject it again. Well, here you go, here's, here's every weapon you possibly need. Or, you know, we walk away from it and just say, you guys figure it out, we're gonna go do some other stuff. Or we could stay at it, which is, I think what the Trump administration is gonna do. They're gonna stay at it and try and make it work. But it's a real setback. And I don't know if this is posturing or not, but it's a real setback. And. And frankly, it's really disappointing because I know they've made a good effort here. This is not like some nonsensical settlement. What do you guys think about this?

[A]

Well, I would think that. And of course, I have no idea what I'm talking about. So this is. I mean, just take that. Take it from where it's coming. But I just wonder if what we're seeing with Greenland is a result of maybe how bad it really is. Not, number one with China and number two with Russia. And. And that's what the. The US Is kind of now reposturing itself to think. Well, this is not going the way we thought. So strategically, what do we need to look at to make sure that there's no more outposts for China or Russia? And Greenland is sitting there, and they're thinking maybe this is the move to make because certainly Beijing and Moscow have great interest in Greenland as well. And I wonder if that's why we're seeing this movement, because maybe things are worse behind the scenes with the relationship between those two than we know. Vin or Delgado, whoever wants to jump in?

[B]

Yeah, I'm not sure, but, I mean, in terms of military there, Vin, we already have a vested interest now when President Trump made that minerals deal with Ukraine. So that automatically puts us in a position where now we have an actual vested interest in making sure that Ukraine has some sort of security. So you've got that to factor in, which I'm sure Russia's not very happy about. But it's done. It's done. I mean, if they would have ended this before Trump got into office, none of this would be a problem. But now they find it to be a problem. Maybe that's part of it. Maybe it's part of the war machine effort where, you know what? They're afraid of this thing coming to an end. So maybe, who knows, who knows who could be subsidizing this war through other, other ways and means, if you know what I mean. There could be some dirty stuff, dirty tricks going on behind the scenes just to keep this thing going, because, let's face it, the war machine likes its wars. That's where they make their money. And why stop now? It seems to be going well for them.

[C]

Yeah. Let me pick up on what Damon was saying, because that is something that I was thinking about through this Entire turn down of the peace plan here when Russia said they're not going to do it because you've got Greenland, you've got what happened in Venezuela. And what happened in Venezuela affects Cuba, which affects Russia. Russia obviously had interest in Venezuela. Russia has interest in Cuba. We have done so many things to sort of neutralize both China and Russia and of course put Iran into that mix too. These are the countries that really, really want to take us down. North Korea to some extent. But, but we're trying to deal with the big superpowers here. So I think, Damon, your point is well taken. Like, Trump is basically saying, yeah, let's negotiate peace on one side with Russia and we'll try and help and we're gonna do what we can and you guys gotta settle this. But on the other hand, he's like, and let me just tell you guys, this is not gonna continue. Like, you're not gonna have forces and ability over us in our hemisphere. We're gonna move on Greenland, we already moved in on with Venezuela. We're gonna do other things. Cuba's gonna fall apart. Russia, Iran looks like it's gonna fall apart. I think all of that leads to Russia saying turning this whole deal down is almost like a spoiled child, you know, who didn't get his toys the way they wanted, saying, you know, this is the only way they can react and rebut any of this because Trump is just plowing through is to say, oh, no, no, you don't agree he's.

[A]

Got a peace plan.

[C]

I mean, I think there's a lot of merit to that.

[D]

That's.

[B]

That good? Yeah, that's pretty good.

[A]

Well, you know, the other thing is, I saw, I think it was Katie Pavlich tonight. I don't know if she's on Fox still. I think, I don't know where. I think I see her on Fox. Katie Pavlich, I like her. I think she made the point of saying someone's gonna get Greenland. At this point, I think it's pretty obvious one way or another, it's either going to be Russia or China or us. It's almost, I mean, she makes. Again, I don't. Who knows what the intricacies here are. But she also, she makes it sound like it's like a foregone conclusion someone's gonna do it. It. So we better. We. We know what our choice would be. And I don't know, it just seems that people were kind of, I don't want to say taken aback, but all of a sudden, you know, we Heard this a while ago, and then it kind of died down. And then all of a sudden, boom. Yeah, we're. Yeah, we're. We're going after it. Full court press. And I just wonder if that's tied to what came out today with the Russia deal and. And who knows what's going on with China behind the scenes, So I don't know. We'll see.

[B]

Yeah, I heard something interesting about that. I was gonna say Damon, or it could be that they had already seen some actions that led the Trump administration to say, look, we've got China and Russia looking to move in over here. That puts them on our doorstep. We can't have that. Maybe that's why he decided, we gotta crank this up. Let's push back and push back hard.

[A]

Now, what's interesting is our guy from Red State who we follow on the show lot, Bonchi. I don't know his real name, but Gordon Chang tonight says that Greenland is going to be important to China and Russia as an outpost. And Banci says, how is it going to become an outpost for China or Russia? Greenland's already under NATO and we already have defense treaties, bases, territorial water rights, et cetera. You don't need to own Greenland. If you really think it's an issue, just go defend it. So, Vin, what do you think about. I mean, that's a pretty good point as well, I guess.

[C]

Yeah, that's a good point. But what I heard today was a lot about our missile defense system. That Trump is putting up the shield, the dome, the great dome. Dome is putting up in our country. A big part of that is Greenland, because if missiles are shot our way, if a nuclear missile is shot our way, Greenland strategically is in a great place to shoot it down because that's basically the trajectory going over the hemisphere, over the North Pole, in a sense, going up that way. I heard a very good argument about that with Greenland. And it's strategically great for missile defense. So I buy that.

[A]

All right, live from Studio 6B. That's a quick wrap, I believe, on hour one. Hour two from the America first warehouse right after this.

[D]

Sam.

[B]

This big D double dizzle in the center.

Bruce Blakeman, Train man, let's get Bruce in there for governor of this God forsaken state. He's doing a great job in Nassau County. A great job in Nassau County. Way better than Elise Stefanik on policy. I don't care what anybody tells me because we've been following him and he was out there when it wasn't easy to do. So on boys and women, sports and all kinds of stuff there in Nassau county. He was putting up the fight when the fight wasn't there to, you know, it was easy to put up the fight when it's, you know, the thing to do. He was doing it when it wasn't that it was tough to do.

[D]

So always had the President's back.

[H]

Always.

[A]

Yeah. So we're, we're, we're 100% until further notice, which I mean could be tomorrow, but we're, we're on the Bruce Blakeman train for governor here in New York. So Slick series. Going to do some more sports here coming up in a second we'll get an update on the college football. Well, I guess now what, what is it? Semifinal. We're on now.

[D]

Quarterfinal four if you will.

[A]

Semi, final. Okay.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

Delgado is going to have some more main headlines. Vinnie Mac will have some more news. I got a couple of things maybe to get to if we have some time. We were talking about this yesterday. I won't go through it now, but just give you the headline because I think Kevin brought it up and said he didn't think it was getting the attention that it deserves. I, it may be getting the attention it deserves, but it probably deserves more. And that is what's going on in Iran. The Iranian regime must fall. Iran must not be allowed to continue to pose an existential threat to the United States, to Israel and to the Western world. That tonight in the American Thinker by Rovi Lepore. If I have time, I'll get to that. But that, that is worth a read. I'll share it on our social medias and if I have some time here, an hour too. I'll get to that. But right now let's do some sports. Sports is brought to you by Mike Lindell. LFS6P is the promo code to you, slickster. What's going on?

[D]

Here's an update on that Miami game. BD Carson Beck with a 52 yard touchdown. Just made it 17. Miami over Ole Miss, 2:18 to go in the first half. So we got A barn burner there. Big D 1710. Miami on top. Looking to move on and face the winner of Oregon and Indiana. Should be a great game tomorrow night as well. And Stephen A. Smith, I don't know if you guys caught this. He was on earlier today talking about obviously the shooting that went on yesterday. Stephen A. Smith, ice agent, completely justified, but could have shot tires instead.

[B]

Too many movies.

[A]

Yeah. Well, wait, I didn't hear. I knew he said they were justified. I didn't hear the tire part. That was what. Really?

[B]

Yeah. Try to shoot the tires.

[A]

Maybe he wasn't as good at the as I thought then.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

Wait till you hear the name of his podcast. ESPN personality Stephen A. Smith feels the ice agent who shot at a protester who nearly ran him over with her vehicle in Minneapolis on Wednesday was completely justified in the use of deadly force. However, Smith still believes the officer should have shot the protesters tires instead. Breitbart News reported that the shooting occurred on Wednesday morning. I'm not gonna go into all that because we all know those details. But Smith addressed the shooting on Wednesday's episode of you ready for this one? Straight shooter with Stephen. Aaron, could you roll cut 10 for us? Let's hear what Stephen has to say.

[A]

Come on, Steven.

[D]

Come on.

[A]

I saw the video on numerous occasions. Yes. And seeing what transpired from a lawful perspective as it pertains to a law enforcement official, don't expect him to be prosecuted. He was completely justified. Boom. From a humanitarian perspective, however, get the trigger ready.

[D]

But we're getting there.

[C]

Why did you have to do that? That if you could move out the.

[A]

Way, that means you could have shot the tires.

[B]

Oh, my God.

[A]

That means you could have got a few feet away after you shot the tires. And if you were uns successful in doing that, you could have got it down the road. You didn't have to do that. Yeah, she wasn't driving down the road. I mean, you can't, you can't say the first part and then launch into the second part. Right.

[B]

You can't. You can't say.

[D]

It's like a politician.

[A]

You disqualify your first part by starting the second part.

[D]

Part took that both sides of his.

[B]

Mouth by saying you could get out the way as the officer was hit by the car. I mean, that's great because he couldn't get out of the way. Maybe he should watch the video again.

[D]

Yeah, I think you're right.

[B]

Oh my goodness. What a buffoon.

[A]

Come on, Stephen A.

[B]

He had it.

[A]

He had us went to bat for him saying it was a great take. Of course, I guess I should have watched it.

[D]

Yeah, well, you know, it's like.

[C]

Just like a politician.

[D]

They look at all things. Look at a. Both sides of their mouth. Right. Typical, you know.

[A]

No, but I'm. What's he talking about? How do you. Again, you should have just left it. That he was completely justified, because up to there you're correct. But then you say, but why did you have to. What do you mean?

[B]

And then he go. And then he goes for the movie angle. Of course, you know, he could have jumped out of the way and shot out the tires like they do in all those. In all those, you know, movies that I like to watch.

[A]

I'll tell you what. You go stand in front of my truck on the left bumper.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And let's replay it. And now you decide.

[C]

Decide.

[A]

You decide which one I'm gonna do. Good luck. Good luck with. You couldn't spell tire. Never mind try to take out your weapon and shoot it and get out of the way at the same time. I mean, come on.

[D]

Good luck ever being near your vehicle whenever you're on the road.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

All right.

[A]

My driving is fine.

[B]

Except if you're near him.

[D]

Yeah, this is the original tailgater here, Jimmy Johnson speaking.

[A]

Would you rather be in the car or outside the car? If I'm around driving?

[C]

Yeah, definitely.

[D]

Inside.

[B]

Okay, so inside his house with a helmet.

[D]

Good luck with that. All right. Jimmie Johnson, the great Jimmy Johnson dipping back into NASCAR Craftsman's Truck Series for a race in San Diego. Samuel Stubbs of Breitbart, seven time NASCAR Cup Series champ and NASCAR hall of Famer Jimmy Johnson, will race in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series for the first time since 2008. In June. On Thursday, Tricon Garage announced that Johnson will join the organization for the June 19 race at Naval Base Coronado, just outside of San Diego, California. Johnson will also be running in the June 21 NASCAR Cup Series race at Naval Base Coronado with Legacy Motor Club, the Cup Series team he co owns. Johnson's hometown in.

[B]

What is it?

[D]

Kajong, California is situated roughly 1. What is it? El.

[B]

El Cajon.

[D]

El Cajon. I say Kajong. El Cajon. Well, you live there.

[B]

Nice. Cool. Young.

[D]

Yeah, yeah, exactly.

[A]

Please, not back to the story from last night.

[D]

Please, not yet. I'll take Diet Coke on the next story. Two of them anyway. That's a wrap. I just wanted to get. I like to get a little nascar and we got a lot of NASCAR fans. Big D. Down. Down, in and around. Not even just down south up here in the north as well and everywhere. Arizona season's gonna be heating up. Arizona.

[A]

Oh, sure.

[D]

Got speedways all over, too. That's a wrapping.

[A]

Sports big. All right, look. Very good. Sports is brought to you by Mike Lindell. LFSXP is the promo code to use. Let's do some more headlines with Rick Delgado. He's got main headlines. Delgado, what's going on?

[B]

All right, Damon. Well, Republican lawmakers are ur President Trump to invoke the Insurrection act against one Minnesota buffoon governor named Tim Waltz. You may have heard of him. He ran for vice president with Kamala Harris. Well, he is out and about, of course, trying to stir up even more unrest after the Democrat warned that he could deploy the National Guard in response to the federal immigration enforcement actions in his state. I know we played it last night for anybody who didn't catch it. Here is basically a threat from Minnesota Governor Tim Waltz. This is cut number five as he again threatens ICE with the use of the Minnesota National Guard. Cut five. Check it out.

[A]

All right, hold on. We're working on some live footage here. So we'll get to that clip in a second here. You work on that, Aaron, and if we get that, we'll take it, whatever that is. But yeah, Vin, we don't have the clip because Aaron's working on something else, getting some live footage in. But did you hear this idiot Waltz yesterday, acting like he's a big shot, like he's going to activate the National Guard in what would be a straight act of insurrection against the federal government, against the president. And if he did that seditiously, he should be arrested immediately. Is my take what's yours?

[C]

Yeah, I agree with that take they have done. Waltz and that crazy mayor have done everything you can to undermine and defy law enforcement, the President, United States and our country. So by threatening the National Guard, against our own police officers, who, by the way, are given the right to arrest these people through Congress. Congress passed these laws that if you're in this country illegally, ICE is created to go arrest you. This is not like some new thing or some weird act or some Trump trying to do something very different. This is by the book. So if you're gonna undermine that. Yeah, yeah, you should pay the price to that. Now, here's what I was thinking while you were talking about this. That was okay. He absolutely deserves it. We should absolutely do it and go after him. And he should be arrested, frankly. But is he then going to become a martyr of the left? Does this become make him into some like Hero, the left. To me, he's just a giant buffoon. He's been a buffoon since day one, the day he stepped into the presidential race with the other buffoon. Word salad. Buffoon. The two of them have redefined the word buffoon well beyond what buffoon ever meant it to be. They are completed. But I agree with you, Damon. I think it's seditious, and I think he should pay the price. We can't allow people like this to do this. Gavin Newsom would do it. So would that idiot in Chicago and the idiot mayor in Los Angeles and the idiot mayor in Chicago and Pritzker and so on. All of those clowns would do the same thing here. So we have to do something. And this is probably the something.

[B]

Yeah. And again, this is being called for by representatives. Representative Mary Miller, she is a Republican out of the state of Illinois, said in a post on X to invoke the Insurrection act and arrest Tim Waltz. Miller's calls to apply the law, which gives the President powers to arrest suspects obstructing federal law enforcement, follow Waltz suggestion that he might deploy the National Guard to push back on President Trump's use of Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to basically.

[A]

What.

[B]

But what are they supposed to do, again? Enforce the law.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

So he wants to. He wants to set up a fight. He wants to set up a showdown. It seems like nuts. And threatening the use of the National Guard, you know, to stand up against ice. I don't know if the National Guard would do that. I think they might just stand down and be like, yeah, we'll stand here, but we're not gonna. We're not gonna confront them. You know what I mean?

[C]

That would be a really scary situation, wouldn't it? If. Then. If they actually had. If the National Guard agreed to do it, which I'd be surprised if they did. And if they did, I think they would do what you said. But that confrontation, man, that would be. That'd be really bad. Really, really bad for this country.

[B]

Yeah, definitely.

[C]

To even have that visual.

[B]

Hey, Aaron, can I call for. No. Okay, that's fine. What do you call it in terms of. Under Minnesota law, Waltz has the power to deploy the National Guard for the defense or relief of the state, the enforcement of law, or the protection of persons. None of those three things seem to apply to what he wants to use them for, because, again, this is like.

[C]

Yeah, oh, God, I'm sorry.

[B]

ICE is already doing the job of law enforcement. So what is he trying to do by lining them up with the National Guard as opposed to them.

[C]

Here's the equivalent. You rob a bank, the police come after you. The governor of the state says, I'm calling the National Guard in to stop the police from arresting you. Yeah, that's exactly what's happening here.

[B]

Yeah. And again, it's one of those things where you look at this whole thing unfolding, day two of what's been going on in Minnesota. And these are the perfect headlines to try to pull your focus away from what has been destroying his life, his campaign. He can't run for governor again. Again. He won't run for governor again because of all the fraud coming out of the state of Minnesota. What better than to have some, some fresh blood to cover up $9 billion worth of fraud?

[A]

Yeah. All right, let's take a break. Live from Studio 6P on Real America's Voice. Twelve minutes past the hour. We'll do some more sports.

Vinnie Mac, what's, what else is on your news radar tonight?

[C]

Well, this is what's been on my mind. You know, hearing all the news about what happened here in Minnesota and then having gone through the government shutdown and all these other various things, it's just been on my mind and just crystallizing the Democrats five point plan. This is in the playbook. When we talk about the talking points coming out and the memos coming out and all the strategy they do. This is in the handbook. I'm not sure what page it is, but it's right in the handbook. And I just thought for kicks I'd run through it. It's pretty obvious. I think most of us kind of see this all the time, but when you kind of of put it into very simple 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 points, you can see that everything they do follows this system. So number one, create the problem. The problems they create could go back years, even decades, but create the problem. Let's take Obamacare, pass a terrible health care plan, fill it with government subsidies at some point, then wait for the Republicans to try and solve that. That and we'll Go to point two in a minute. Open borders. Let's flood the country with as many people as we possibly can. Let them solve that. Let's enable drug dealers to lead countries like Venezuela. Let's leave the door open for Putin to go in and attack Russia. Let's spend recklessly so that inflation hits record levels. So this is the create the problem point one. Point two is attack anyone that tries to solve the problem, particularly Republicans who always seem to have to solve the problem. So we try to solve health care, they shut the government down. We try to solve just about every issue that's out there, the border, et cetera, et cetera. They attack anyone that does that. That brings you to point three. Delgado and I was, have been talking about this, which is is hope that point two leads to an incident, an incident of some kind, whatever that is. Once there's an incident that gets us to point 4, which is the marketing machine of that incident. And the last point is number five, the election of people like Mandami Newsom Waltz. You wonder how all these people get elected. They're absolutely not qualified to run anything. But they get elected because points 1, 2, 3 and 4 get their base so riled up and divide the country so significantly that extreme people like AOC and Omar and Mandami and all these people, they actually seem reasonable to these crazies at that point in time and they elect them. That's the five point plan. What do you guys think about that?

[A]

Right on.

[B]

Yeah, it's dead on.

[D]

Dead on.

[B]

Because you're right, it is a playbook. They run a playbook. And we heard Nancy Pelosi talk about it. When it comes to the, when it comes up to the wrap up smear, they talk about marketing what they have. And that's one of their big things, is to market it. Right now they're marketing this whole, this, this whole incident in Minneapolis. Why? Because they want to drum up more excitement from the radical base that says, and I'll go back to this Axios article I found just before showtime that, that the grassroots wants more. Some of them have suggested we really need to be willing to get shot. So once they get shot, another one says here our own base is telling us we're not doing enough. There needs to be blood to grab the attention here it has been of the press and the public and there speaks to the marketing of their lunacy.

[C]

Yep. And here's how it doesn't work. Here's how it breaks down and here are the things that they fight to make sure that marketing of it doesn't break down down. They need the media to double down and perpetuate these lies. So remember when Twitter was moving, you know, moving all the lies out and then Elon Musk buys Twitter because you know, it was just a horrible, horrible biased communication machine and he brings, you know, some fairness to it. They freaked out over that. Why? Cuz part of the marketing machine was taken away. Yeah, Facebook, you know, we know what happened behind the scenes with the Biden administration. With Facebook and manipulating information then you've got the mainstream media. Now I've heard CBS is rattling some feathers now because they're starting to report a little more fairly and people are freaking out that they're actually reporting fairly. So they can't execute Delgado that marketing plan without the media. Cuz the media then puts out headlines like JD Vance said that CNN put out, you know, a housewife murdered, you know, defying ice or something like that. I forgot what the headline said, but it was some ridiculous, this wrong portrayal of it. That's CNN's headline. That's the marketing machine now in action. And without the media I don't think they're able to do it. And if you have a fair media that actually investigates stuff and calls balls and strikes, they can't get away with it either.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

So that's the solution.

[B]

Right. And because their party is so loaded with low IQ headline readers that all they do is they read the headline and they react. That's it. They don't need any more, they don't need to read into the story. They don't need to look into details. They don't even look for the truth. They have what they want and that's what the media is used for. To kind of push them, to keep pushing them, pushing them with that little, with that little cattle prod. Yeah, it's a hot poker to see.

[C]

If they can get, you can see it's coordinated too.

[B]

And this is all comes out of the CIA because this is how the CIA overthrows governments around the country. They call color revolutions. And you only need a small percentage of the population to show up up on TV to actually get others to think oh this must be bigger than I realize. And then they start to get play along. It's, it's, it's basically mind control. It's amazing thing.

[C]

Great point.

[A]

All right, live from Studio 6B on a Thursday night. Two more to go. We're back right after this.

[D]

It.

[A]

All right, 30 minutes past the hour. Live from Studio 6B on a Thursday at the America first warehouse, of course, on Real America's Voice, 1039 LI News Radio. Glad you're all in. Whether you're watching and listening, wherever you are, we always appreciate you giving us a few hours of your week nights, 8 to 10pm Eastern time. That's all right, Aaron. Don't worry about it. Just do that. I talked about this a little bit before. We'll do an odds makers here quickly and we'll get the picks out before the end of the show. So everybody knows. But we're waiting for Pete Heckseth, who we believe is going to be live tonight. And we're going to take Pete Hexseth if he is in fact live. But we're waiting on that to start. So we're going to try to time this up the correct way. So we're not going to get into a long drawn out odds makers. We'll get the picks out. But let's talk about while Erin's doing what she's doing, this Iranian regime must fall article I talked about, it's in the American Thinker. I just want to give you a little bit of this because we talked about it last night and I think some of these takes on what's going on are worth listening to and the guys can react here. The world and Iran stand at a crossroads at one of the most consequential inflection points in history. If the ongoing revolution in Iran, unprecedented in its scope, succeeds in toppling the regime, then the world may be spared a future apocalyptic war that could claim countless lives in Iran, the United States, Israel and around the world. However, if the regime manages to extinguish these protests, it would almost inevitably pose an existential threat to the Western world and be more dangerous than ever, an eventuality that must never be allowed to materialize. It would be a dangerous for the United States, as it was for Israel and leaders of the Western world to assume that the protests across Iran will inevitably succeed in their goal of toppling the regime. This is because such a mindset would mean that allies of the Persian people, notably President Trump and his administration, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israeli government, may limit most of their support to encouraging words from afar. While moral support from the United States, Israel and other nations is of great importance, it is most likely not enough. The Ayatollah Khamimi and his puppet Iranian regime undoubtedly seek to survive the storm of opposition. President Trump's recent warnings of military action against the regime if any peaceful protesters are killed was very helpful. And in my mind saved many lives. Defying President Trump, Khamenemi incited his armed thugs to violently attack the protesters on January 3, saying that, quote, rioters must be put in their place, end quote. This was just one day after President Trump warned, if Iran kills peaceful protesters, the United States of America will come to their rescue. We are locked and loaded and ready to go. And I remember thinking to myself, come to their rescue. We would need a definition of what come to their rescue is. That's kind of the key part of that sentence. On January 4th, President Trump reiterated, if they start killing people like they have in the past, I think they're going to get hit very hard by the United States. Since January 2, the protests have continued and, in fact, strengthened. However, the Iranian regime is not heeding President Trump's warning. According to Human Rights Activist News Agency, the Iranian regime has stepped up its violent crackdown. As of yesterday, 28. As of yesterday, the 6th of 2026, at least 34 Iranian civilians, including four children, have been killed. Over 2,000 have been arrested and many protesters have been injured, including dozens seriously. As of January 1, a day before President Trump's warning, at least seven had been killed. Roughly 80% of these deaths have occurred after the president's warning. This indicates that in order to retain power, the regime will likely seek to ramp up its level of violence, including killings of peaceful protesters, in order to stop these protests. It is therefore essential that President Trump's threat to use force against the Iranian regime is realized in the coming days. Otherwise, the Khmemi will likely instruct his forces to further intensify their brutal crackdown, potentially leading to the mass killings of hundreds or even thousands of protesters and the failure of the protests. And it goes on and on. I'm not going to read the whole thing, but you kind of get the idea of where the article is going. The world basically stands at a tipping point. We must not squander the golden opportunity to topple this apoplectic regime. If we hesitate, the window may very well close. The United States may lead the way with moral support and with decisive military force if necessary, and other support to prevent this catastrophe and usher in an era of peace. Vin, what do you think about that tough position?

[C]

I've got a few specific thoughts on this. And they center around Israel and Hezbollah, because first off, Iran outsources repression. They bring in Hezbollah forces, they bring in Iraqi forces, they bring in these groups that they fund, you know, in other parts of the world. They bring them in to try and suppress their own people. They've Done this over and over and over and over. So they try to outsource it as best they can. And what have the Israelis been trying to do? They've been trying to decimate all of Hezbollah. So now you see them trying again to outsource these forces to handle the repression. But these forces now are minimized. You know, they are regrouping, but they are minimized. The Israelis have done some damage, but the fact that we haven't let them finish the job completely, like completely wipe out Hezbollah, that's why that mattered, because of what's happening here in Iran, because they wouldn't be able to really bring these folks in to try and repress their own people. So I know Trump is talking tough, but I think this is his angle, is using Israel to take out out the outsourced forces that have been out there that are Israel's enemies anyhow, so that they can't repress the people and hopefully they'll be successful. And I think that's where Trump is going. That's where the actual boots on the ground are gonna be and the fighting, because it makes sense to me. But if you don't let them do it, you don't let Israel finish the job here. This is the ramification. These things happen and they have the ability to repress people. Especially in Iran.

[B]

Yeah, especially when you talk about the outsourcing there, Vin. According to this, two independent sources confirming, I'm getting this from Fox news, that about 850 Hezbollah, Iraqi militia and Quds forces fighters have been crossing into the. Crossed over the border into Iran to bolster the regime's security forces. So it speaks volumes. We saw it in Venezuela. Who was protecting Maduro? It wasn't his people. Why? Probably because he knew he couldn't trust them all. So he had Cuban military protecting him. We saw how well they did the same thing that's going on in Iran. They need outside help because I think they're afraid their own people, you know, their own military would probably come to them and take them out. So they've got to go after these people, their own people, without their military, because I don't think their military would actually go down and take out their own citizens.

[C]

And that's not like major forces either. I saw that same report that Fox put out, and it's accurate and that's what they've done. But this is why they shouldn't even exist. Hezbollah just simply should cease to exist. Yeah, and if that was the case, then they're not showing up 850 fighters to try and take down the Iranian people. But we might have a moment here. I think we do. I hope we do.

[A]

Yeah. All right. We're waiting on Pete Heck says we'll see what time that starts. 38 past the hour. Let's do a quick odds make here if you can. Fran, give me a little music. I don't even need the intro. We'll just get right to it so we get all the games. We're going to start in the College Football Playoff. We know we got the game going on right now, but we got another one tomorrow. Oregon and Indiana, everybody picked the same game. So I'll take us through the games. Slick, Oregon and Indiana. Who you like in this one?

[D]

I like Indiana. I like Fernando Mendoza over Dante Moore, who probably go number one and two in the draft. So. Yes, give me Indiana.

[A]

All right. Slick's taking Indiana, as is Paul. Paul Nolan, I believe he's taken Indiana as well. Aaron, what are you going to do here?

[F]

I'm going to take Indiana. Also. It's really hard to go against Fernando Mendoza at this point. They're number one for a reason. They're going to keep going.

[A]

All right, so everybody's on. Indiana minus three and a half over Oregon. Now let's get to the NFL. Six playoff games. We start 4:30 on Saturday. Rams at Carolina. Rams favored by ten and a half. Slick, what are you going to do here?

[D]

Oh, I had that half point. I gotta stick with. I gotta go 10.

[A]

The 10's fine.

[D]

All right, I'll take the 10. Thank you for the shave. All right, we're gonna be. Let's go with the Rams. I'm telling you. Stafford, Nua and McVeigh. Bryce Young won't have much to say. I'm taking the Rams. I'll lay the 10.

[A]

All right. Rams minus 10. Paul Nolan's also got the Rams minus 10. Aaron, are you going to make it a trifecta again?

[F]

Of course I am. I'm not going to pick against my Rams, Especially when Devonte is probably going to play.

[C]

What?

[F]

Yes, my Rams. That's what I said. And Devonte's playing this weekend. I think they're going to roll.

[A]

All right, here we go. Here's the game that we're all going to separate on, I believe. Green Bay at Chicago. Green Bay minus one. Slick, what do you got?

[D]

Chicago. My kind of town. Big D. Kayla Williams versus Jordan Love. Going to be a good game. Two young quarterbacks. But you know what? No Parsons for Green Bay. And Green Bay does have a secret weapon you know who they have? Terrell Diggs, one of the worst cornerbacks that the Cowboys have seen this year. They released him. He's on Green Bay. He's going to get smoked for two touchdown touchdowns. And I like, I like the Bears. I'm taking the Bears and I'm getting the one point at home. I like that.

[A]

You're getting one at home for a reason. Green Bay obviously is the winner here. No doubt about it. Me and Paul Nolan both on Green Bay, minus one. Aaron, what do you got here?

[F]

I'm going with Slick. I'm going to take the Bears here.

[A]

Okay. All right, we'll see. I'm with Nolan. That was actually one of my favorites of the week. That and this game, of course. Buffalo at Jacksonville. Buffalo favored on the road. Minus one. Slick, where you going here?

[D]

Here? I'm going with Buffalo. Are you kidding me?

[C]

I like Buffalo all the way.

[D]

I think Josh Allen is going down. He's such a clutch quarterback. Trevor Lawrence is good, but I don't think he's quite there. Jack. Jacksonville had a tremendous year at 13 and 4. But you know what? I just, I can't see Buffalo getting knocked out in the first round. Give me the Bills Mafia.

[A]

Okay, Aaron, where you going in this one?

[F]

The Bills always get knocked out in the first round.

[A]

I'm going Jack. I'm going Jack. As is Paul Nolan. Jags plus one for sure at home.

[D]

Ah, watch this.

[A]

San Francisco at Philadelphia. Philly minus five. Slick, where you going in this one?

[D]

Oh, man, I hate to bet on Philadelphia, although I think they are the better team here. It's going to be in Philly Lincoln Financial Field. Probably going to be a little soggy to field, but Big D, you know what? Go real quick. I'm going to go with the Niners, surprise everybody else. I like the points. I think the Eagles win it, but only by a field goal.

[A]

All right, San Francisco plus five. Aaron, where are you going?

[F]

I'm taking San Francisco here also plus five. They're six and three in the playoffs under Shanahan since 2021 and they have not gone out in the first round.

[A]

Philly for me, minus five. And Paul Nolan has Eagles as well, minus five. Chargers at New England. This is my blowout of the week. I'll just tell you right up front. New England minus three and a half for me. Slick, what do you got all day long.

[D]

The Patriots are going to kill him. I I Drake. Drake May is going to take Justin Herbert. It's going to be a blowout.

[F]

I like the picture Go back on your pick, Damon.

[B]

All right.

[A]

I'm not as confident anymore. Aaron, where are you going here?

[F]

Because I'm going to take the Patriots also. So don't back.

[D]

That's a no brainer.

[A]

All right. And actually Paul Nolan has the Chargers. Good for him. Plus three and a half.

[F]

No way.

[A]

And that's the last Sunday game. So I guess that's all we're picking. So there we go. We can do Monday night on Monday, Houston, Pittsburgh. So all right, there you go. Quick odds makers on a, on a Thursday night. Also want to remind you this is our last show of the week. We're off tomorrow night. Special coverage from Texas, Steve Bannon, Grant Stinchfield, the A team tomorrow night, very important, the threat of Islam. What's going on in Texas and what's going on in many facets of the America of American life, health care, obviously the, the obvious ones that we all see. But there's a lot to talk about. And that'll be a special tomorrow night. Harry on the highway will be down there with the boys. Steve, I think is already there. Grant Stitchfield's always there. So it's gonna be a big night in Texas tomorrow night and we'll be, we'll have the night of off. But Real America's Voice will have full coverage for you tomorrow night. So make sure you tune in to that. Take our last break of the night. We'll wrap it up for a Thursday night Real America's Voice right after this. All right. Live from Studio 6B on a Thursday night. I saw this in the commercial break. We should probably talk about this. It was at 5 o' clock this afternoon, but I didn't actually see it till just now. Donald Trump on Truth Social tonight. After long and difficult negotiations with senators, congressmen, secretaries and other political representatives, I have determined that for the good of our country, especially in these very troubled and dangerous times, our military buddies budget for the year 2027 should not be $1 trillion, but rather $1.5 trillion. This will allow us to build the dream military, quote unquote, that we have long been entitled to and more importantly, will keep us safe and secure, regardless of foe. If it weren't for the tremendous numbers being produced by tariffs from other countries, many of which in the past have ripped off off the United States at levels never seen before, I would stay at the $1 trillion number. But because of tariffs and the tremendous income that they bring and the amounts being generated that would have been unthinkable in the past, especially just one year ago, under sleepy Joe Biden, the worst president in the history of the country, we're able to easily hit the $1.5 trillion number while at the same time producing an unparalleled military force and having the ability to at the same time pay down the debt and likewise pay a substantial dividend to moderate income patriots within our country. President Donald J. Trump from about 4:17 this afternoon on Truth Social. Give you guys a chance to react to that. Vin, I'll start with you. What do you think?

[C]

That's very interesting commentary in a number of levels. I mean, the tariffs obviously are paying dividends in ways didn't even calculate they could. But having said that, I really agree with Trump on this particular subject. You know, I've never been a fan of these huge budgets and the military has a huge budget, but I don't think we've ever seen the world as dangerous as it is now. I mean, China's been spending the last 15, 20 years just pouring everything they can into the military, pouring everything they can into drone technology. You know, they surpassed us in the Navy. They're doing everything they can to have a superior army to ours. It's extraordinarily dangerous. Lots of countries have nuclear weapons now. We have to be able to stop those if we ever get attacked or there's a rogue attack. We have to be able to stop a missile that has a nuclear warhead. And if throwing a little more money at this and building a sort of a super, super incredible military machine here that can offset all of these things. I mean, I just feel like it's something we got to do. I know the military and the monies we spend in defense get a, get a pretty bad rap. And I was one of them knocking them too, because they're, you know, they spend a lot of money on a lot of stupid things and then they spend a lot of money overall on our defense. And it's been peaceful for the most part. But I don't know, man, the world is really dangerous now. So I'm with Trump on this. And if the tariff tariffs give us the ability to execute the plan that he just said, if what he said plays out, and all the pieces he talked about getting the debt down, being able to spend more money in military to make our forces even better and to have a dividend, I mean, that's pretty powerful stuff. I don't think we were ever in a position to even have that conversation, let alone it actually happening. He's saying something that he sees actually happening. That's, that's mind boggling in a year or that's.

[A]

Is he talking directly to the Supreme Court here in a preemptive. Pay attention, pay attention there, what you're about to rule on. Yeah, I wonder.

[C]

Very. Yeah, very interesting point.

[B]

Because let's face it, when you talk about the military, you're talking about the national defense. Defense and the national interest of the country, which is interesting because just yesterday, I don't even know if we covered this yesterday. But President Trump said he will not permit defense companies to issue dividends or buy back their own stock until they invest more military equipment production and address several other of his complaints. He posted this on Truth Social. He said that the massive shareholder dividends and buybacks were taking place at the expense and detriment of investing in plants and equipment, a situation that he declared will no longer be allowed or tolerated. So is this part two of that statement, you know what I'm saying, where he's, he's threatening the companies, saying, hey, you guys are, you guys are messing around here with, with your stock buybacks and your dividends and not putting the money where it should be back into defense. Is this part two of that?

[C]

I think it's a great point that he made. I mean, how many times have we seen contractors, government contractors, redoing roads or building a bridge or doing something and it takes just 10 years to do this thing? That's what our military contractors have been doing. They're taking a very long time. They're over budget on a regular basis, and they haven't upgraded their manufacturing capabilities. Trump's calling them out on it, and once again, I think rightfully so, because there's, there's no checks and balances on that. There's none. You're building fighter jets. You say they're going to cost $1 billion each and they cost $2 billion each. What do you do? Yeah, you pay $2 billion, you know, but there has to be a check and a balance here. And he's, he's providing that by saying, I'm going to spend more. Get your act together, boys. I like that.

[A]

Yeah. All right, let's get around to whatever the boys have left. Vinnie, Ma, Vinny, Mac. Anything else quickly on yours plate here?

[C]

I got one quick thing. And it's the basis of all, all these socialist people running countries, running our cities and our governments and our states, and that is the wealth tax threat. In California, five billionaires have already left. Twenty more are considering leaving California. Major billionaires leaving because they have said, well, we don't have enough money. We're in debt because we're idiots. So we're going to tax the rich even more. That's what Mandami is going to try and do in New York. And what do you think is going to happen?

[A]

Happen?

[C]

They're leaving. They're going to leave. So we're seeing it happen in California right now and New York is next. So that caught my eye and I think it's something we should all be looking at.

[A]

All right, Slick, quickly, what's left in sports?

[D]

Okay. PGA of America CEO steps down after one year to take care of mother and mother in law. Ryan Canfield of Fox News PGA America CEO Derek Sprague. His stepping away from his role after one year to help support his mother and mother in law. Sprague said he realized he needed to spend more time at home after his daughter's wedding. And anyway, nice to see him doing something like that. The gentleman from the CEO there of the pga Big D. And that's pretty much a rapid. Suppose that's what I got for tonight.

[A]

Very good. Any other headlines, Delgado?

[B]

Yeah, Damon. You want your head to explode?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

All right. I got the story for you breaking at 5:30 this afternoon as the House passes Obamacare subsidies, defying GOP leaders and putting pressure on the Senate. What am I talking about? Something that we've talked about and has been discussed for a while, the extension of these Obamacare subsidies. Not for one year, Damon. They passed a bill earlier today extending the Obamacare subsidies for three years, upping the pressure on the Senate Republicans to reconsider the legislation. Just months after Democrats forced a government shutdown over the issue, the House voted, check this out, 230 to 196 to approve tens of billions of dollars to the Affordable Care act tax credits. With more than a dozen Republicans, Republicans screwing you over and joining the Democrats, how does that grab you?

[A]

It doesn't grab me at all. It's not a surprise in the House whatsoever. I mean, obviously I would assume it's dead in the Senate. I would hope. But you never know. You never know.

[B]

Well, John Thune did say this is dead in the Senate. He's gonna ignore the bill altogether. And Mike Johnson's grip over his conference there seems to be weakening since he can't even get them to stick together on something so stupid as this.

[A]

And of course, here on Long island, we'll be interested to know that here's part of the 15 Republicans who joined the Democrats. Andrew Garbarino, New York, of course, Mike Lawler, New York. Nick Lalota, New York, of course, hi Nick, Long island specifically if you want to even be more, more direct my congressman. And then you got some, some Ohio's, Maria Salazar in Florida, Rob Brushen, Pennsylvania Derek Ford in Orden, Wisconsin Zach Nunn, Iowa, Monica de La Cruz, Texas Mike Carey, Ohio Brian Fitzpatrick, of course, Pennsylvania. So beyond, beyond helpless. As always, we salute our military, active and active police, firefighters, first responders, EMTs, everybody on the front lines protecting us. Minnie, Mac, thanks for joining us boys on the show. Aaron, Frank, great job as always. Have a great weekend, everybody. We got a little of an extended weekend. We'll be back on Monday, hopefully back in the studio. Live from Studio 6B. Enjoy tomorrow night. It's going to be a great show. Tune in real America's Voice all night long. We'll see you Monday. This is an I Heart podcast. Guaranteed human.
