A roaring start son of a jim on facebook says hi guys love the show what's up with the chat chat chat welcome on in wherever you're watching facebook x rumble twitch getter real america's voice youtube of course glad you're in i'm not gonna somebody asked a good question here that could be the answer but i'm not going to ask it on the air but what the problem with the computer might be but anyways lots to do tonight right now let's get to as we send off twenty twenty five let's get to tonight's first word well you know history rarely announces itself with any kind of fanfare more often it moves quietly measured not in slogans but in lives lives saved violence reduced borders secured and prosperity restored by those standards twenty twenty five stands as one of the most consequential conservative years in modern american history the second term of president donald j trump stands as a testament to result resolute conservative leadership returning to the white house amid promises to restore american greatness the trump administration delivered swift and decisive action implementing nearly half of the visionary policies outlined in project twenty twenty five while achieving historic breakthroughs on core conservative priorities from securing the nation's borders to revitalizing the economy and combating crime and drugs twenty twenty five marked a triumphant reversal of the failures of the previous administration one of the administration's most resounding victories came at the southern border where president trump fulfilled his promise to end the chaotic open border policies of the biden era on day one executive orders reinstated remain in mexico resumed border wall construction ended catch and release and declared an invasion at the southwest border suspending unlawful entries the results well staggering illegal border crossings plummeted to their lowest level since nineteen seventy with encounters dropping over ninety percent in some months more than two point five million illegal aliens departed the united states including over six hundred five thousand formal deportations and one point nine million voluntary self deportations the administration unleashed ice and cbp arresting thousands of criminal aliens and prioritizing the removal of the quote worst of the worst under homeland security secretary kristi noem hiring surged for border patrol agents and officers while military deployments and barriers fortified critical gaps fentanyl seizures at the border fell dramatically saving countless american lives the landmark one big beautiful bill provided the largest ever investment in border security ensuring these gains will endure for the first time in decades america regained control of its sovereignty proving that strong enforcement works the national tragedy that has defined the last decade in this country since twenty twenty more than half a million americans have been killed by illegal narcotics trafficked into the united states by hostile actors ranging from chinese chemical suppliers to mexican cartels and complicit regimes such as venezuela yet in twenty twenty five something remarkable occurred that death toll began to fall and fall dramatically state surveillance systems including louisiana's showed a thirty percent decline in overdose deaths translating into tens of thousands of lives saved over the past two years this is not an abstraction these are sons and daughters real people who came home domestically the focus shifted to law and order empowering law enforcement targeting violent offenders and rejecting harmful harm reduction programs that enabled addiction ice arrests emphasized criminals with thousands removed the lake and riley act and other measures ensured accountability for crimes committed by illegal immigrants these efforts contributed to safer streets and communities reversing years of lax policies that fueled overdose deaths and urban decay trump administration's drug policy priorities emphasized reducing supply through interdiction and demand through evidence based prevention and treatment marking a return to common sense approaches that protect american families the trump economic agenda ignited a resurgence with policies that cut taxes slash regulation and impose tariffs to bring jobs home the one big beautiful bill a massive tax and spending package made the twenty seventeen tax cuts permanent eliminated tax on tips and delivered relief to working class americans gdp growth soared reaching four point three percent in the third quarter the strongest in years driven by consumer spending investment pledges exceeding seven trillion in record tariff revenue bolstering the treasury inflation continues to cool to levels not seen since the first trump term with core rates at two point one percent while wages rose and prices for essentials like eggs and gas fell sharply deregulation freed american energy promoting fossil fuels and rejecting costly green mandates job gains beat expectations blue collar wages surged and stock markets hit record highs by prioritizing american workers and manufacturers the administration laid the foundation for a golden age of parallel prosperity on wall street and main street beyond these pillars the administration advanced a broad conservative agenda government efficiency and reform well we all remember doge led by elon musk saved billions of through workforce reductions contract cancellations and fraud elimination dei policies were axed across federal agencies restoring merit based hiring education and family values well steps were taken to phase out the department of education redirecting power to the states and to you the parents protections for women's sports and biological truth in policy safeguarded traditional values foreign policy and peace president trump ended eight wars brokered ceasefires in gaza lessened threats from iran pursued deals in ukraine showcasing peace through strength deregulation and innovation well we rolled back biden era climate rules car rules promoted domestic manufacturing fostered innovation in ai and energy there's still work to be done america does in fact though still face one huge epistemic crisis and that is the crisis of the american media too many of our truth tellers refuse to tell the truth ideological journalists abandon empirical realities to preserve grievance based narratives eroding public trust and extinguishing hope this refusal to acknowledge progress does not make suffering disappear it guarantees its return america is not the engine of human misery it remains as it has for generations a force for human improvement if the next generation is to learn how progress is achieved the good news must be told clearly honestly and without apology twenty twenty five was a banner year for conservatism as president trump's administration transformed campaign promises into tangible victories by securing the border fighting crime and drugs unleashing economic growth dismantling wasteful bureaucracy the white house restored faith in some american leadership at least in the presidency challenges remain but the momentum is undeniable america is stronger safer and more prosperous as the administration looks to twenty twenty six these accomplishments paved the way for even greater achievement in the years ahead this is the conservative revival america voted for and let's hope it's just beginning and that's tonight's first word.
- [14:48]
Rick Delgado
Yeah let's hope it's just beginning because let's face it we were pretty much you can say we were on the brink if we had a biden presidency followed up by kamala harris right oh yeah i mean i mean it's no it's no great shakes to think the road to ruin we were totally barreling down just prior to the twenty twenty four election i mean we saw it we're seeing the remnants of it right now right we're seeing all the fraud that's being exposed whether it be in states whether it be from doge whether it be usaid you're seeing how you know wars are coming to an end peace treaters are being drawn up and our stature in the world is being redefined instead of being a follower now we're the leader again so yeah i mean if that's the if that's the foundation twenty twenty six and beyond i'm all for it here here.
- [15:45]
Slick Rick
Yeah where's the beer we flexed our.
- [15:47]
Damon
Muscles for sure and again that that first words more a reflection of the president not not congress not mike johnson oh yeah that is that is all about the executive not not anybody else.

- [23:21]
Slick Rick
You know what i should listen to my former father in law who actually passed away my late father in law vince elise he always said go with your gut and i was gonna go with my gut last night i was gonna take atlanta and what do i do i took the rams i figured you know aaron's been on a roll with the rams i don't want to lose another game to ha and i thought we had something going and what do you know atlanta comes out and plays like out of their minds kirk cousin plays great bijan robinson was running all over the world like he had money in a fantasy football league it was absolutely incredible bijan robinson's ninety three yard touchdown run stuns rams as f start leads way to upset win scott thompson of fox news bijan robinson and the atlanta falcons may not be heading to the nfl playoffs but they are certainly not mailing it in to finish the twenty twenty five season a prime example of how much effort the falcons will have to close the year can be encapsulated in a ninety three yard touchdown run by the electric robinson whose big game helped atlanta take down the la rams twenty seven twenty four on monday night football the falcons move to seven and nine with just one game remaining in week eighteen but the rams loss keeps them cemented as the numbers succeed in the nfc come so it was a big to do now it gets very interesting on sunday the carolina panthers are taking on the tampa bay buccaneers and this is for the division there's a caveat now that atlanta has won if atlanta beats new orleans next week by strength of schedule carolina and tampa both played obviously they were in the same division played each other tampa could win go eight nine beat caroline on last game of the season and not make the playoffs if atlanta wins carolina will back in that's how it was pathetic that they're eight nine and they're winning at that division but we've seen the cowboys do that too in the nfc east years ago but that's a crazy crazy angle so we'll see what happens i know we got a lot of fans we have a lot of carolina buccaneers fans down south and it's going to really be crazy how that's going to play out and looking forward to that and this is a crazy story today big d patriots stefon diggs charged with strangulation and assault now this is all alleged but here we go warner todd hewson of breitbart new england patriots player stephon diggs is facing strangulation and assault charges over an incident in massachusetts from earlier this month documents from dedham district court released on tuesday say that diggs is charged with felony strangulation or suffocation and misdemeanor assault and battery from an incident occurring on december second according to wbz tv the victim of this alleged attack has yet to be publicly named however i'm going to check on that big d because actually she did come out and now this turns out it's his chef his chef that in his home and apparently it was an argument over being paid and well here's the follow up story stefan diggs chef claims patriot star slap choked over salary dispute that warner todd houston and breitbart more details are coming to light about the assault allegations against the new england patriots tossed on diggs news of the charges filed against the patriots y received broke tuesday morning and now the story of the woman who was accusing diggs of attacking her has been revealed according to tmz sports the woman whose name has not been made public is reportedly diggs former personal chef she says she was assaulted it happened in her bedroom and occurred as the two argued about the back pay she was owed the woman claims the assault occurred in diggs home on the second but she did not report it to the police until december sixteenth so we'll see how this plays out again this is alleged i don't know if there was any witnesses it'll be very interesting stefan diggs is on the new england patriots the new england pacers right now are the number one seed in the afc and not that that's more important than this young lady but the point being is there's a lot at stake here his court appearance two days before the afc championship game if they get there.
- [26:51]
Damon
Well i don't know much about it i've seen some things reporting online that people think he'll never play football again because some of the evidence that again it's all alleged we don't know if any of what's online is true it'll all come out in in due process in the right way but if if any of that what we've seen is correct it's it's this is another it's just like another p diddy slapping that girl around in the hotel video it's.
- [27:15]
Slick Rick
Terrible if there's cameras or anything she's going to have a definitely is going to have a problem she's going to have some case and that's a wrap in sports big d back to you.
- [27:21]
Damon
All right very good slick we'll do some more sports obviously during the show let me say while we're on sports happy birthday to the one and only tiger woods yeah who turns fifty today five oh which is remarkable i think that says about us that man we're.
- [27:37]
Slick Rick
Getting old man we're old world and.
- [27:38]
Damon
He is i remember tiger's first tournament and for my money i love jack don't i mean i love jack and obviously he's got more majors tiger went through a lot in his personal life but i don't know for me he's the goat no one will ever transcend a sport and do for what he did for golf i just don't think it's possible to ever be done again i agree what he did for golf i don't think it can be duplicated in any other sport he did for.
- [28:08]
Slick Rick
Golf what arnold palmer did for ice tea.
- [28:13]
Rick Delgado
He also he also raised the because it used to be just you know an old stodgy you know only old guys watch golf it turned out like even people like myself i was watching it and oh i wasn't a golf fan i never played the sport i was just like all right well you know what it grabbed your attention.
- [28:32]
Slick Rick
Attention good point rick the game became very young with tiger woods at that time no question you can go look.
- [28:37]
Damon
At the weeks he was not on television the weeks he was in a day day and see the difference you never find those kind of numbers again and you'll never find the kind of numbers that he holds in golf like everybody looks at scotty scheffler and what he's doing and it's incredible scotty scheffler would have to have to do this level for about eleven more years to even catch up to some of the records that tiger has as far as being number one the week's number one yeah that's crazy scotty scheffler's gonna have to be number one for about eleven more years to do to catch up good luck good luck all right we're back headline news with rick delgado coming.

Damon more fallout from the fraud they're finding in the state of minnesota as the trump administration is halting all child care payments to minnesota after the massive fraud allegations that is just breaking news and also shocking unearthed footage showing parents pretending to drop off kids at the minnesota daycare center yes shocking unearthed video from a twenty eighteen state fraud case so this has been going on for a while the basic premise is it seems like minnesota has known about this for a long time the rest of the country not so much because the mainstream media refused to cover it anytime anytime anytime people brought it up to try and bring attention to it they got shouted down how could you possibly you know attack people who are trying to feed kids it's the way they cancel you out well this shocking unearthed video from a twenty eighteen state fraud case shows minnesota parents dropping their children off at a daycare center and then leaving with their kids moments later as the authorities probe a rampant billion dollar fraud schem in minneapolis check out this surveillance footage it's dated from twenty fifteen obtained by fox nine in minnesota in minneapolis parents are seen signing their kids into the facility so providers could bill the state for full day's care of children who didn't actually attend it's cut number two here check this out the.
- [41:10]
Damon
Daycare centers need to sign up low income families that qualify for child care assistance funding these surveillance videos are from a case prosecuted by hennepin county they show parents checking their kids into a center only to leave with them a few minutes later sometimes no children would show up but either way the center would bill the state for a full day of child care this video from.
- [41:36]
Rick Delgado
That same case shows a man handing.
- [41:38]
Damon
Out envelopes of what are believed to be kickback payments to parents who are in on the fraud where was the money going i don't know exactly where.
- [41:47]
Rick Delgado
It went but yeah so there you have it wow on some days david also no families would even show up like the video showed there but the day care center would still claim reimbursements from the government the outlet reported at the time and of course you saw the the alleged kickbacks the alleged phony daycare centers also gave kickbacks to those parents who were involved again you know kind of kind of just showing up up signing in basically and of course to do this they would they would pay him off to make sure that they came back the next day and did it all over again crazy it's amazing and us education secretary linda that.
- [42:23]
Damon
Video yesterday of twenty eighteen is just crazy too by the way crazy but this is not just all of a sudden popped up out of nowhere this.
- [42:32]
Rick Delgado
Has been going on i think i think they've been warning about this and talking about this since twenty fourteen and by twenty eighteen of course they had the authorities looking into the dozens of businesses suspected of bilking billions of dollars in government funds for the bogus child care plan so there you have it and of course minnesota governor tim waltz is still in office people are still calling for him to resign but still to no avail it's just an amazing amazing amount of fraud going on in the state and as we're finding out out not only in that state it seems to be something that's rampant around the country i don't even know if it matters if it's a blue or red state it seems to be something that is a well known money making scheme if you're looking to bilk the government is set up a child care.
- [43:21]
Damon
Center well waltz is well that's what steve gruber's doing right steve gruber is giving up the steve gruber show and he said yesterday open one himself so tim waltz is not not not giving up this is from four hours ago walt's on x we've spent years cracking down on fraud referring cases to law enforcement shutting down and auditing high risk programs trump keeps letting fraudsters out of prison to the national news just now paying attention here is what we've done to stop it and then he links to whatever this article i don't know when this article is from the minnesota tribune of course conveniently doesn't have a.
- [44:00]
Rick Delgado
Date well no it's a it's an op ed piece it's a commentary it's not it's not news that's a that's.
- [44:07]
Damon
An opinion piece yeah well i'm saying it still doesn't have a date he's making it sound like this goes back years that he's bringing it to everyone's attention and just no one he says my message remains clear if you threaten everything that makes our state a great place to live by committing fraud in minnesota you will be caught and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law read more and then i guess this is the link to that article well.
- [44:29]
Rick Delgado
Obviously the minnesota judge her name sarah west obviously did not get that didn't get that memo from the governor there damon who is sarah west she's the judge who's facing calls to be fired over a minnesota fraud case turns out she was found herself last month we reported on this after she overturned a guilty verdict in a case involving misappropriated medicaid funds in november hennepin county judge sarah west granted a judgment of acquittal for abdifa abdikar yusuf very american sounding name overturning a unanimous jury verdict in which he was convicted on charges connected to a company he owned which was involved in seven point two million dollars in fraud in her order west said the original conviction had relied on substantially circumstantial evidence a lot of cases rely on circumstantial evidence here is cut number three here's scott jennings basically talking about everything that's been going on and what you know what what is not going to happen unless we see some some type of real penalty cut number three.

All right thirteen to the hour live from studio six b real america's voice i want to remind you again tomorrow night eleven pm year in review right here on real america's voice make sure you tune into that eleven pm we'll take you right up until eleven fifty seven eleven fifty eight you can flip over and see the ball drop ring in twenty twenty six great way to spend the last hour of the year our twenty twenty five year in review and i believe brian glenn might might be the host oh that'd be cool i saw brian post something on x saying make sure you tune into our year in review or i'll be reviewing some of the best moments from the white house so that will certainly be a part of it so tune in tomorrow night eleven pm and check that out before we get to sports i saw this today headline in blaze media senate bill would give nearly six billion dollars to refugee programs despite record low intake numbers and that's the headline from the blaze and i'm not going to get into their article because oilfield rando who i've quoted before on this show who does great stuff on x went through this from from hhs the new appropriations for twenty twenty six and he broke it down for everybody so i figured let's just go through what he says so you know a little bit of what's in this bill there's two versions a house and a senate version let's talk about the senate version here the senate version wants to give money to the quote unquote creative economy through the national endowments for the arts humanities the creative economy the committee recognizes that the creative economy was severely impacted by COVID nineteen and encourages the department to partner with the national endowment for the arts and the national endowment for the humanities to explore the feasibility and expansion of of registered apprenticeship programs for creative workers who previously received income through creative cultural or artist based pursuits to produce ideas content goods and services yada yada yada so that's number one secretaries of hhs dol and the department of education are going to all have to explain how they're reducing anti semitism national strategy to counter antisemitism is in the bill but the big one is what we just talked about in this article and that is six billion dollars for refugee programs the appropriations bill could allocate billions in fundings to refugee programs after temporary government funding expires congress passed a clean funding extension in november twenty twenty five that expires on january thirtieth when new funding allocation could could take place this possibility has conservatives pointing out issues with legislation like a senate appropriations bill first proposed in july for fiscal twenty twenty six the bill which allocates funding for the department of labor health and human services education and quote unquote related agencies has garnered significant attention from online researchers regarding its allocation of funds to refugee programs the gop is about to supercharge funds to all of those insane refugee assistant grants particularly conservatives online have taken issues with the bill recommendation for refugee and entrance assistance for which the committee recommends five point six nine one billion dollars quote these programs provide a variety of benefits and services to refugees asylees cuban and haitian entrants immigrants arriving on special immigration visas trafficking victims and torture victims the bill reads a whopping five hundred sixty four million dollars of those funds is recommended for transitional and medical services while providing grants to states and nonprofit organizations to provide cash and medical assistance to arriving refugees as well as foster care services to unaccompanied minors more than three hundred million is recommended for refugee support services the senate committee is arguing that hhs needs to ensure funding for resettlement agencies so they can maintain the infrastructure and capacity at a level to continue to serve serve new refugees previously arrived refugees and others who are eligible for integration services the bill reads good according to the baker institute the trump administration set the refugee cap at seven thousand five hundred for fiscal year twenty twenty six the lowest in us history this is a ninety four percent reduction from the one hundred twenty five thousand cap that the biden administration set for fiscal year twenty five so you have to again this is why i wanted to point out that my first word was about the executive and certainly not about the house and senate because when it comes to the house and the senate it's these things that make people think what the hell.
- [55:38]
Rick Delgado
Are they doing yeah like seriously you.

Delgado it's hard to it's but it's it's just amazing because like you said it's what the president wants is one thing but what the congress will continue to do is what they've always wanted to do is it find ways to enrich themselves because you know this money's coming back to not only not just them but through their family members they hire their family they they end up in these ngo's like oh all run that and all of a sudden their wives their cousins their whatevers they're all on the receiving end of cash from.

Streaking through the quad i skipped this.

Damon
In hour one but let me just quickly get to it in hour two because this goes against the grain brian junedef over at the american thinker today polling signals trouble for democrats and opportunity for republicans polls show big trouble for democrats but polls are just signals not guarantees the gop must not become complacent and i saw that headline i thought huh because most places you look and obviously the kind of the general wisdom is that going into the midterms obviously the party in power is running uphill so i wanted to read this article and to see how he comes to this conclusion and he says if elections were held today democrats in congress would be in deep political trouble he said that's not a partisan claim or some conservative wishful thinking it is the verdict of the opinion polls brutal consistent and increasingly bipartisan a recent quinnipiac university survey shows that only eighteen percent of voters approve of democrats in congress while seventy three percent disapprove this is the worst figure quinnipiac has recorded since it started tracking the question in two thousand nine that number alone would be concerning but the deeper story and the one republicans should pay attention to lies beneath the top lines for the first time in quinnipiac's history democrats themselves disapprove of their party's performance in congress only forty two percent of democrat voters approve while forty eight percent of democrats disapprove of their own party's performance this marks a stunning collapse from just two months earlier when their approval stood at fifty eight percent in other words this isn't just partisan politics polarization it's an intraparty revolt with democrats turning against each other among independents the situation is even worse for them congressional democrats have a net approval gap of minus sixty one points independents who german modern elections are not just drifting away they are actively recoiling surprisingly republican voters are feeling the christmas cheer with seventy seven percent approving of the gop congress's performance which we've talked about this but okay when a governing party loses independence and its own base at the same time it's no longer dealing with a messaging problem it's facing a legitimate crisis even the usually dependable cable newspins couldn't salvage those numbers even harry entin our guy who's hardly a conservative firebrand described the democrats as quote lower lower than the dead sea noting that congressional democrats now have a net approval rating of minus fifty five points the worst in over twenty years of polling when analysts whose instinct is to provide context next and ease the impact on democrats giving up hope a fundamental change is occurring other polling confirms the same conclusion gallup their last survey show public confidence in democrat leadership in congress near historic lows while trust in republicans on issues like inflation crime border security government spending has steadily improved since late twenty twenty four pew research center also found widening enthusiasm gaps democrats are much more likely than republicans to have negative feelings about their own party that is an underappreciated but critical metric in the midterm elections the irony is that the democrats are not losing ground because republicans have become widely popular they're losing ground because voters increasingly see themselves democrats as ineffective unfocused focus and disconnected from daily concerns in other words the gop is just the lesser of two evils now that's hardly a ringing endorsement but again as i said in my opening of the show inflation rates have declined but obviously people still feel the steep price increases from the biden administration still lagging around so there's still work to be done obviously the cost of housing insurance energy groceries are still painfully high but down immigration remains clearly unmanageable at least in the author's opinion and despite unified messages about threats to democracy voters seem more worried about threats to their own personal safety and security taken together these unresolved issues explain why voter dissatisfaction is no longer abstract it's personal and immediate but he says republicans must resist the urge to be complacent polls are signals not guarantees they're a snapshot in time and the midterms are almost a year away the lesson of the upcoming terms is not that republicans can relax but they need to unite voters clearly want competence seriousness and normalcy they're exhausted by crisis politics procedural disorder and performative outrage from both sides republicans who emphasize inflation control border enforcement energy independence crime reduction fiscal discipline will attract a receptive audience especially among independents who feel politically homeless equally important will be their tone the data indicates voters are not seeking maximalist rhetoric or internal conflict they want results well as they as i laid out tonight they've gotten results from the executive at least if republicans present themselves as the mature alternative disciplined policy focused in prioritizing voters over vendettas the electoral rewards could be significant but opportunity is not destiny it must be earned these polls are a flashing warning light for democrats whether republicans take advantage of them or just watch them flicker will decide not only the outcome of next midterms but the course of american politics for the rest of this decade yeah i thought that was interesting because the headline you would i mean just you'd go wait what polling signals trouble for democrats well i've been.
- [71:07]
Rick Delgado
Seeing that for the last couple months because you know he references our favorite pal there at cnn harry anton and he's always talking about he's always doing these polls where democrats are at historic lows well if you've got a historic low as a democrat and it doesn't look like you're picking up any steam and like you just said you just saw another one where it's even lower i mean we're talking we're talking sub thirty percent those are not get elected numbers so there's a significant opportunity i you know again so you're on board with him i'm totally on board with him and i was thinking that anyway i'm like you know what coming up in this next year once the economy gets rolling some of these things get put some of these legislative pieces you really start to see the effects of the them and and how they affect the economy we see gas prices going down we we just see a snowball just gathering steam i i think it's going to really start to hit up in the late spring and once you know by then people are going to start feeling much better about the country and the direction we're going it's going to be a whole lot easier to get somebody to pull the the lever for the r as opposed to the the lever for a d because the d's aren't doing any d's aren't doing d's as far as i'm concerned and and you know he says that they're they're tired of the you know the hysteria the hysteria politics oh my god he's a russian agent and all that they're tired of it it's fatigue everybody's tired of you get trying to gaslight every little thing oh my goodness he talked to this person yeah okay how's the economy doing it all boils down to it's the economy stuff stupid right.

Going on well you think the diggs family had a bad day how about this one cowboys released veteran quarterback trayvon diggs his brother was released from the cowboys earlier this afternoon just hours after the stefon diggs story broke so this is todd archer of espn frisco texas the dallas cowboys have released two time pro bowl corner cornerback trayvon diggs with one game to play diggs twenty seven will go through waivers and will be a free agent if he isn't claimed the cowboys close the season sunday at the new york giants the move ends a tumultuous two season span that has seen the player and the organization grow apart one source said the decision to move on from diggs was due to a culmination of events including performance diggs signed a five year ninety seven million dollars contract extension in twenty twenty three but he has played in just twenty one games during that span the cowboys will save about about thirteen million dollars releasing him including about a half a million dollars if somebody picks him up this week and now with the playoffs somebody just might before the end of the season so we'll see but i think it was a good move by the cowboys they had to do that and it should be noted that stefon diggs his i guess fiance girlfriend they had a child together is cardi b the national record artist you know cardi.

Slick Rick
Women or something well yeah baby mama yeah no question about it but really just a crazy story we'll obviously track that and we talked about this last night too big d with jokic right the joker nuggets nikola jokic to miss four weeks with hyperextended knee lakers fans breathe a sigh of relief they thought it was far worse espn news services miami nikola jokic is going to miss only a few weeks which is surely cause for the denver nuggets to take a giant sigh of relief for the only playing with well he doesn't play with them right they like them anymore but superstar center has been diagnosed with a hyperextended left knee knee i know they missed he's on the lakers i know no he's on the nuggets oh he's on the nuggets now no you're.
- [74:44]
Rick Delgado
Thinking of luka doncic oh luka doncic.
- [74:46]
Slick Rick
Right okay yeah so he's right jokic right on denver right i'm all confused here but yes jokic has a bone bruise in the hyperextended left knee as well as sources told espn's sham sharnia it's an obvious blow to an already short end of nuggets but it's not a season ending issue nor one that will require surgical repair if jokic misses a month that means he would be silent for about sixteen games so that's a big to do yes i always get those two confused for some reason and i don't know why know why i always did it i'm not a big nba west fan obviously being a sixes fan i spend most of my mind and my time in the east big d and that's pretty much it so we'll see how this dig story plays out but it's interesting that the brother also was released today just really crazy timing i mean was it because of no no i think i think this was this was coming however and you know it could have been some pr i don't know but the cowboys are just trying to get get more ready for the cap they got a lot of work to do with that defense defense but they had one of the best offenses in the league so we shall see we got odds makers coming up though looking forward to that we got big big college promo that's coming up we're going to be doing that what are we doing that in seven segments in twenty minutes yeah twenty minutes so get ready for that we're gonna be picking aaron and i and neck and neck yeah well aaron's looking good she got fifty wins so she's looking good right now.

Rick Delgado
On oh yeah damon well jumping off of what you were just talking about in terms of the president's policies and stuff and what we could be looking forward to coming in the next year guess what what tax on tips yeah know that that not happening here that's going to kick in but there are some blue states including new york state that are going to be blocking trump's popular tax cut provisions this coming bruce from the new york post get ready.
- [81:57]
Damon
For this chat i'm going to be doing it all year bruce bruce bruce.
- [82:00]
Rick Delgado
Believe it or not just eight states are on track to allow their residents to cash in fully on popular tax cuts from the president's marquee legislation of twenty twenty six experts told the new york post with several blue states unwilling to give workers an additional break the one big beautiful bill act exempted federal taxes on tips wages and overtime pay but hardworking residents will still have to pay state taxes on that income unless local elector leaders can step up democratic strongholds like new york illinois california and every other place that likes to rip off the taxpayer are basically saying no can do they're not going to offer it they're going to be taking steps to make sure that this is blocked other blue and red states alike have yet to signal whether they will take up the legislation so it's kind of one of those things where you know it sounded great and you think everybody would be on board until you get to the state level and that's when people like kathy hochul get involved here's a waitress from new york talking about this and how it's going to affect her and her family cut number four a waitress from new york cut four check this out zoe i work at.
- [83:09]
Aaron
The embassy diner for two years it's very disappointing i was looking forward to that when the first president was running so a little disappointing it's all my livelihood really we live off of tips so getting taxed on them and losing money is definitely a big hit and it makes living a little bit more difficult and now knowing that it can't happen in new york is a little frustrating frustrated it's like losing money so it's it's hard especially when everything's so expensive in life right now and you know that's my livelihood that's how i eat that's how i feed myself and my family so maybe a couple hundred close you know like a thousand possibly depending on the hours put in also my mom my mother's been a waitress for thirty something years and she took care of five kids waitressing so now knowing you know if we were to go back and we were younger again and she was taking the leaving the taxes on tips it would have really affected mine and my siblings lives growing up so it's it's very upsetting we've been in the restaurant business our whole life so this is just what we know is diners my father owned diners my mom's parents own diners it's just this is our family's business yeah so.

Rick Delgado
There you have it from the new york post treasury secretary scott besson earlier this month accused several blue states including illinois and new york of playing ebenezer scrooge's holiday season by deliberately blocking the popular one big beautiful act provision which is set to take effect january first so no tax on tips no tax on tips for you in new york.

They can't lose the revenue crazy it's a can't lose the revenue in these blue hell holes because they've spent us into you know their unfunded liabilities on pension plans and all these things they have in these blue states they can't lose the revenue and not only that.
- [84:52]
Rick Delgado
I mean take a look at what have we been talking about since last week nick shirley's video all the fraud look at all the fraud why do you think they have such deficits in these states not only are you talking about the unfunded like you were just mentioning there damon but you're also talking about the fraud which they don't want to clean up because they're using that for votes to keep people in line to grease their own pockets to keep keep family members employed it's all a grift and it's unfortunate that people like this zoe the waitress at a long island here is her and people just like her are going to be unfortunately feeling the brunt of this because the politician they cannot and refuse to actually take responsibility of how they spend our money not the government's money the government doesn't make money they steal it while they take it in the form of taxes from you and i and then of course since it's not theirs as who's the economist milton friedman said there's four ways to spend money and the most the most wasteful one is when the government's involved because they're spending other people's money so they don't care where it goes those so unfortunately that's why.

And speaking of new year's because that's just about a day away new year's eve is under watch with some cities believe it or not canceling public celebrations others stepping up security and here's why in the us the fbi reportedly disrupted a new year's eve bombing plot in la from about two weeks ago they arrested four suspects accused of planning coordinated attacks across multiple locations although authorities did not tie those arrest any specific event site the disruption added urgency to security and planning for the holiday season several major cities around the world damon as well are canceling new year's eve events and impose heightened security measures and this is all because of we could just say unencumbered migration because let's face it new year's eve used to be a very fun and festive time but when you get certain types of people moving into your country who don't like certain things well guess what they want to blow them up and we've seen this time and again there was also a report out of texas the fbi foiled another plot of i believe in an underage teen trying to get bomb materials to someone who happened to be an undercover fbi agent that just that story broke earlier tonight in paris officials called the city's famed new year's eve live concert on the champs elysees city leaders including the may said the area was simply not suitable anymore for large unpredictable crowds especially late at night when alcohol consumption and spontaneous gatherings could increase risks in other words guess what your migration policies have ruined it for everybody else someplace that used to be a great place to watch as you see some of the footage of new year's eve in some of these big cities fantastic celebrations lots of love lots of happy people partying it's not it's not going to be happening in paris one of those cities which is has canceled their new year's eve celebration it's just it's just wow really just just an insane pity what's going on in the world so there you have it keep your eyad on a swivel when it comes to new year's eve especially hope it's.

Three past the hour to do our new year's eve new year's day odds makers all right here we go bowl season time college football playoff time ten games they've picked four over wednesday and thursday new year's day of course it's changed a little bit from the days of the regular bowl season where new year's day you'd have about one hundred games yeah right but we got a couple we got a bunch wednesday and some on thursday ten games they've picked four slick games number one where you.
- [96:33]
Slick Rick
Going well we got the game tomorrow night big d they're going to the cotton bowl in beautiful texas here we go miami hurricanes and ohio state the buckeyes number two ohio state i full disclosure i am a buckeyes fan but you know i was waffling back and forth in the break big d kind of making me think should i switch my pick but no i'm gonna go with my gut like i said earlier every time i deviate i get dominated so i'm gonna go with miami and i'm gonna take the nine and a half i think the bucks hawkeyes win the game clearly but i don't think they're gonna win by ten i think they're gonna win by a touchdown osu thirty one to twenty four they had a double overtime thriller earlier in the season and a late penalty flag of course well this actually back in two thousand two excuse me two thousand two bowl championship game ohio state defeated oh miami three thousand one hundred twenty four big day well i don't know if they're a little bit of me but anyway miami impressive win over texas a m last week they won ten to three so give me the all american defensive end reuben bane likely the number one two three pick in the nfl draft this year i think ryan day does figure out the win but miami takes it with michael irvin on the sideline as a twelfth man former dallas cowboy big former hurricane give me miami and i'm going to take the nine and a half and i hope the ohio state wins but not by more.
- [97:43]
Damon
Than seven all right all right i think ohio state obliterates them myself but hey said that on the on the other hand i don't know why it's only nine that makes me a little nervous i feel it should be like fourteen but anyways aaron where do you go in game number one i'm with.
- [97:58]
Aaron
You damon on this one i'm going to take ohio state over miami minus nine and a half obviously both teams are great like you guys are saying but the buckeyes i feel are all around better on both sides of the ball they're also ten two and one against the spread this season so i like those odds and miami is known to capitalize off of turnovers but ohio state averages seven seven giveaways per game that's fourth in the nation and their quarterback only has six interceptions this whole season great ball security so miami's not going to be able to capitalize off of that like they do in other games so i'm going to go with ohio state here for the winning cover.
- [98:28]
Damon
Yeah i don't know what what part of the game miami can can win or not forget dominate can even win.
- [98:34]
Slick Rick
So they have a good running game.
- [98:36]
Damon
Okay well they do that's where they're going all right very good game number two slick where you going high noon.
- [98:41]
Slick Rick
Big dj january first hangover time get those bloody marys down hair of the dog and orange bowl miami gardens we got texas tech taking on oregon texas tech plus two and a half the red raiders i think their defense which is led by all american david bailey thirteen and a half sacks will pressure the ducks qb dante moore the great dante moore three thousand forty six yards and twenty eight tv's don't got what you just woke up nevertheless big d give me number four give me the red river raiders at twelve one over oregon also twelve one i'm going to take the two and a half i think it's going to be a tight game but i think the red raiders come out on top i think oregon's time is over i think number four texas tech give me the raiders all.
- [99:19]
Damon
Right slick's game number two is texas tech over oregon aaron what's your game.
- [99:23]
Aaron
Number two game number two for me is the cheez it citrus bowl texas against michigan i'm going to take texas i believe the line is minus seven over michigan there's a lot of of noise surrounding these two teams right now obviously texas not making the college football playoffs this year they're looking to prove that they belong there all along michigan situation's not great with the head coach fallout a lot of noise surrounding both teams like i said but on the field i feel like texas looks good offensively for the most part especially rushing their defense looks great and michigan on the other hand kit they couldn't really do much against ohio state in their last outing gave up four hundred nineteen yards ten and seventeen on third downs not really liking those odds against this texas team so i'm going to go.
- [100:03]
Damon
With texas all right texas minus seven over michigan aaron's game number two slick game number three where you going i'm.
- [100:09]
Slick Rick
Not doing any of these cheesy toilet bowl games i'm sticking with the college football playoffs big day i'm hanging with the big boys here and here we go number one indiana taking on bama number nine come on let's stick with it it's the rose bowl in pasadena remember the great keith the late great keith jackson jackson from abc sports he used to call it the granddaddy of them all right the old rose bowl well that's where i'm going to the rose bowl and indiana number one all year looking great fernando mendoza could be the number one pick in the nfl draft i think if the raiders have any brains they're gonna pick him and pick him out of the lock he won the heisman trophy he's fantastic i like him over three thousand yards passing this year and i'm gonna take indiana big d laying seven over bama i think that time has come and goes gone crimson their quarterback the crimson ties quarterback ty simpson two hundred and fifty yards per game twenty eight td's he's no slouch but i think they get it done and i i really like the hoosiers on this one indiana i think this could very well be their year indiana ohio state i think it's going to be so yeah indiana laying.
- [101:07]
Damon
Seven all right too many points for me in a game like this too much pressure for a quarterback who hasn't been there before team's great no doubt coach is great but i don't know that's that's a lot of points in a game that's going to be this pressure filled we'll see how he reacts aaron game number three for you i.
- [101:22]
Aaron
Don'T know damon i feel like they are ranked number one for a reason i'm going to go with slick on this i'm going to take indiana over alabama minus seven i believe you said the line is i absolutely love this indiana team i'm praying that the jets are smart enough to do whatever they can to take fernando mendoza they're not going to but i'm going to dream anyway i almost feel like this line almost should be a little bit bigger the way that indiana just goes out and dies dominates pretty much every game they're really balanced on offense and alabama's defense is known to struggle and not to mention their offense is questionable on the ground right now not sure how that's going to shape up against indiana's defense their third in rushing success rate allowed indiana for the win and cover.
- [101:58]
Damon
All the way okay all right on indiana we'll see you there who's right too many points for me but alabama's let me down a couple times this year so it certainly wouldn't be a surprise everybody who's questioned indiana they answered the bell at every single turn so it's easy to say they're they're gonna do it again and they might so.
- [102:15]
Slick Rick
Tide'S gonna turn all right game four.
- [102:16]
Damon
Slick where you going oh it's gonna.
- [102:18]
Slick Rick
Be eight o' clock the big game it's gonna be we're going to the sugar bowl big d in nolan's caesars superdome here we go we got the dogs and ole miss both twelve one great teams number three versus number six that would be the dogs at number three i think obviously gunna stockton the qb for georgia he looks prime to get get get it on kirby smart as well too smart i think i really do believe the dogs win ole misses had a great year i just don't see them coming in i his points might be a little little high i think this game is going to be a tight game but i think they'll get a touchdown they'll win it by a touchdown i really do and give me georgia give me the dogs.
- [102:51]
Damon
Big d all right aaron where are you going for game number four i'm.

Aaron
Going with slick on this one also i'm going to take georgia over ole miss minus six and a half it's a nice regular season rematch for these two georgia won by eight i believe in the regular season so i think we're going to see a repeat or something similar here georgia's defense has been on a tear they're only allowing seven point two five points per game in their last four that is insane georgia is so well rounded and i think kirby smart's going to lead them to the victory once again absolutely all right.
- [103:19]
Damon
Give me the rebels in this game oh man give me the rebels plus six and a half why is this game under a touchdown somebody knows something hey lane watch this that's the theme of the night for me these boys are gonna put it all on the line for the ex coach to stick it to him give me the rebels plus six and a half in this one all right all right there you go there's your new year's eve new year's day's odds makers we'll post those games yeah for everybody to follow good points everybody i don't know i don't that georgia game scares me i don't why is it six and a half with a total of fifty six that's a lot of points i now that is a lot of points to put up as opposed to number fifty six with a line that's under a touchdown and not to think that this game is a barn burner this game could be like thirty well thirty one thirty thirty three thirty last time they met.
- [104:13]
Slick Rick
They scored seventy eight points like aaron pointed out there georgia won by eight.
- [104:16]
Damon
Forty three thirty five blowout on either side i i got to take the points in that game i'm i'm calling for ole miss to win this game thirty four thirty one really really really yep that's my call what season is.

- [105:35]
Slick Rick
A way i think it's it's sad i think that those border patrol agents are going to have a difficult time when they're out in the field and they see what actually happens in real life separate from their training but i do understand that their primary incentive incentive is financial i think it just speaks to the financial situation that millions of americans find themselves in and i definitely am concerned about that report yeah so.
- [106:02]
Rick Delgado
Basically according to karen bass the only.

- [112:10]
Rick Delgado
Is a story i just found just before showtime this one is interesting caught my attention somebody in the chat was saying you know we needed a good good story to finish out the year this should do it for you coming from the gateway pundit illegal migrant fugitive busted trying to evade capture damon by hiding in an italian nativity scene as he poses one of the three wise men come on you can't take there he is in a bizarre attempt to avoid arrest a thirty eight years old ghanian illegal migrant was busted in southern italy after attempting to blend in to the life blend in yeah to the life size christmas nativity scene by posing as one of the three wise men.
- [113:03]
Slick Rick
Talk about the black sheep of the family.
- [113:07]
Damon
Holy cow i mean i guess that's an a for effort that's a.
- [113:13]
Rick Delgado
Beauty at first at first thought i'm thinking that's the stupidest thing but it could be the wisest thing this guy's ever done it almost worked the failed nativity hideout took place in a small town called gallatone located in a region of southern italy the only reason i'm.
- [113:29]
Damon
Listening to this is because you said it's from the gateway pundit if it was like from mikey meatball's side i'd say this is totally fake but the gateway pundit i have to think this.
- [113:39]
Rick Delgado
Is real this is from and other places are reporting it too this is what this was the first one i saw it on the fugitive whose identity has not been released was on the run after being convicted of assaulting a police officer and resisting arrest he was sentenced to nine months and fifteen days in prison by a court in bologna northern italy but managed to flee south before finding the display the nativity display set up in the town town's tourism office in the town square he stood motionless in the background with his arms raised aloft trying to mimic the statues of the biblical figures so there you have it while admiring the festive scene the mayor of gallatone flavio filoni oh actually mistook the intruder as part of the display so he had the mayor.
- [114:30]
Damon
Fold yeah did he yes this the mayor of what what town the mayor.
- [114:34]
Rick Delgado
Of galatone galaton what state galaton in.
- [114:39]
Damon
Italy oh and oh yeah san antonio.
- [114:43]
Rick Delgado
Not really paying attention to the story i've been talking about italy since i started this stupid story san antonio texas while standing in front of the nativity carefully made by our tourism office the mayor says i noticed a present i had initially mistaken for part of the scene he wrote in a statement on facebook so so of course that led to the guy being arrested and there you have it local authorities three kings oh my god and these legal migrant well he was swiftly arrested by a joint team of local police and state police and was reprimanded into custody so there you have it i guess a for effort yeah definitely you know what you can't make something like that up.
- [115:26]
Slick Rick
It actually has to happen divine intervention.
- [115:28]
Rick Delgado
Yeah.
- [115:32]
Damon
All right slick anything else in.
- [115:33]
Slick Rick
Sports well yeah former nba star dwight howard asks trump to make military service mandatory paul boy of breitbart former nba star dwight howard openly called for president donald trump to make military service mandatory for citizens for at least one year this is obviously done in other countries the eight time nba all star revealed his thoughts on the social media platform x on sunday random i honestly feel like the president should make one year of service mandatory for everyone born in america a lot of other countries do it and i think it would would help with discipline and structure i'm curious what you all think would you would this help america or nah he said while some agreed with howard a great deal of replies were in the nay category it always seems kind of gross though for people who aren't service serving to force other people to do so one user said discipline comes from within not a government mandate free people don't need to be conscripted to serve offer incentives for voluntary service tax breaks training and watch people step up said an so not everybody was agreeing with the great dwight howard there big d yeah.
