Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. January 6th – Five Years Later

[02:17 – 13:12]

• Reflections on the “Anniversary”

  • The hosts recall RAV’s “amazing coverage” of the day, including stories of individuals still imprisoned (alleging unjust treatment and questionable legal standards).
  • "It was almost like we were in Cuba, like we were in some communist country..." – Vinny Mac [02:53]

• Political Narrative & Double Standards

  • Demonization of January 6 participants contrasted to leniency shown to other protesters (e.g., riots in Portland, New York, Minnesota)
  • “You're talking about people who were put in prison for essentially jaywalking, some of them... Meanwhile, what happens in blue toilet towns... they're in and out, and the Democrats never say anything about it.” – Damon [04:25]

• Broader Motive – Targeting Trump

  • The hosts argue the event was “centered around taking Donald Trump down” and that, ironically, it failed as Trump “came back and won.”
  • “If this were a Hollywood script, we’d walk out of the theater and say … that could never happen in real life, and it did.” – Vinny Mac [07:14]

• Accountability Blame Game

  • Major figures like Nancy Pelosi, Liz Cheney, Adam Schiff, and even Mike Pence are named as orchestrators or complicit.
  • “Pelosi's knee deep in this. She’s never going to pay a price for it … Kinzinger is never going to pay a price...” – Damon [09:24]

• Collapse of Trust in Official Narratives

  • “How many times can they completely falsify information and not lose people? …After COVID, after Russia, after this—that’s a little too much. I don't believe it anymore.” – Vinny Mac [11:13]

• Recognition of Key Journalists

  • Julie Kelly is credited for her deep reporting on January 6th cases, which influenced Trump’s pardons.
  • “Julie Kelly probably doesn’t get the prop she deserves.” – Damon [11:57]

2. Venezuela & the Global Reset

[16:04 – 30:01]

• Operation to Capture Maduro

  • The hosts praise the “surgical, precise” U.S. operation to remove Maduro, seeing it as a move with broader global implications:
    “This is bigger than Venezuela... at the heart was China, Russia, Iran, and Cuba … Trump literally has reset the map.” – Vinny Mac [17:57]

• China, Russia, and Iranian Interests

  • Disruption of Chinese oil sources; U.S. now wields leverage as Chevron, ExxonMobil, and ConocoPhillips prepare to revive Venezuela contracts.
  • “Trump just resets the narrative. …He’s transactional.” – Damon [19:53, 21:01]

• Contrast with Past U.S. Leadership

  • Prior U.S. leaders “bluffed” but Trump “did what he said he would do.”
  • “With the pansy leaders that we've had in the past ... they saber-rattle, but never really backed it up with action. Now we have Trump.” – Rick Delgado [21:48]

• Democratic Response and Political Risks

  • Dems alleged hypocrisy for once wanting Maduro out, now critiquing Trump’s decisive action.
  • Questions raised over possible Democratic (and Republican) entanglements with Maduro:
    “Who is Maduro going to roll on? Whose names are going to start to pop up…” – Rick Delgado [23:22]

• Implications for U.S.–China Relations

  • “I think it [Venezuela capture] makes [China] less aggressive toward Taiwan” – Damon [24:21]
  • “It’s a reset … I don’t see Trump drawing that harsh line, but it does reset things.” – Vinny Mac [29:14]
  • Rick expresses concern that China may react aggressively to avoid “losing face.” [28:10]

  • Discussion on hypocrisy and lack of action by the United Nations.

---

4. Corruption and Domestic Policy

[62:34 – 67:33]

• Corruption in Childcare Funding

  • Discussion of Biden-era policy not requiring childcare centers to verify attendance, leading to $19 billion in potentially fraudulent payments.

• State-Level SNAP Fraud

  • Story of two men in Massachusetts running tiny stores, but pulling $100–$500k per month in SNAP benefits:
    “The only thing convenient about these stores was how easy it was to commit SNAP benefit fraud.” – Boston State Prosecutor (audio) [66:34]

  • Anticipation that California corruption will dwarf Minnesota’s current scandals, especially as Trump administration investigates.

---

5. UN & “Global Governance” Critique

[47:03 – 55:47]

• UN's Failures

  • The panel derides the UN as useless and corrupt, arguing it’s failed to stop wars, has enabled tyrannical regimes, and now obsesses over condemning the U.S. for arresting Maduro.

• “I think I talked about this a couple months ago…any war that the UN has actually stopped…the total count I came up with is zero.” – Rick Delgado [49:52]

• “We should dismantle the thing. I agree with the U.N. in principle...but they don’t do anything.” – Vinny Mac [53:22]

• New World Order?

  • Rubio’s “Who cares what they think? They’re wrong.” remark seen as indicative of a move away from multilateralism.
  • “That's not something the Secretary of State or one of our top diplomats would ever say...That’s New World Order-ish.” – Vinny Mac [55:47]

---

• Strong distrust in mainstream narratives and global institutions, underscored by “deep-dive” coverage and focus on stories under-reported elsewhere.
• Theme of “reset”—both in geopolitics (Venezuela) and domestic narrative (post-January 6th, post-COVID, post-Russia narratives).
• Humor and sports break up the heavy news, but even these anecdotes reinforce skepticism about mainstream and establishment decision-making.

For listeners:
This episode offers a contrarian, critical overview of current events as seen through the lens of Real America’s Voice—where the prevailing attitude is that established powers, be they political, bureaucratic, or global, have lost legitimacy and are due for a shake-up, if not outright replacement.

Transcript

[Vinny Mac]

This is an iHeart podcast.

[Damon]

Guaranteed Human.

[Vinny Mac]

All right, all right. We are back live from Studio 6B. Tuesday, January 6th. What a historic day, huh? Today we got a lot to talk about. We did have some technical difficulties with the live feed, and they flew Harry Oates in with some duct tape, Scotch tape and a pack of gum. And I think we've got it up. We've got ourselves working here. The guys have been working real hard, by the way. I'm just kidding around. They have flown in Colin, our main guy. He was probably having himself a nice dinner and sitting and relaxing, having a beer at o' Shea's or something. There he is. Yeah, he was hanging out. He left a couple of beautiful ladies, too, at the bar. Sorry about that. Colin Parker. Sig out there working the phones and working the intercoms. I don't know what else he was working, but whatever happened here, they got it all fixed, and I know that. Damon, do we have you out here? Are you there somewhere? There he is. Yeah, Damon's there. Damon's using his iPhone right now, so we got really good technology working tonight. So how are you, buddy?

[Damon]

Whose idea was it to let Vin do the intro? Oh, well, that was mine.

[Vinny Mac]

That was your idea?

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah.

[Damon]

Feel like we feel like we're doing a fundraiser here tonight. Parker's working the phones. What are you talking about?

[Vinny Mac]

Click on the QR code and donate now to the Vin. Beautiful. Yeah, the Human Fund.

[Damon]

You gotta. You gotta do what you gotta do, right, Finn? You know, stuff happens in the TV world, and you know it. Sometimes it normally happens. If you go live at 8, it normally happens around 7. 57. That's when it will happen. And that's pretty much exactly what happened tonight. But here we are, so happy to be with you. We're going to try to get some of the other boys in here as well on a Tuesday night. And obviously, this is your night, Vin. So it works out good that you're in our West Palm beach studio and you can kind of lead the show tonight. Although after hearing that intro, I may have to take it back. I don't know, but.

[Vinny Mac]

Oh, they're talking. They're talking to my ear right now. Cut Damon off. No, no, no, no, no. We should leave him on there. I'm very sorry about that.

[Damon]

Yeah. Well, anyway, so it is, obviously, it is a big News Day, obviously. January. January 6th. And the anniversary of that, I guess. Let's start there, Vin. Obviously, a day that'll, you know, most of us will never forget. And the people, the way they were treated out of that and some of the things that we've been working on here at Real America's Voice. But I guess just give me your thoughts on a fifth anniversary here.

[Vinny Mac]

Well, first off, I was watching our coverage during the day, cuz we had amazing coverage of things going on in Washington. Ben Bricklaum, is there a few others, you know, talking about what happened. And a lot of the people that Trump pardoned were there and sharing their stories. And some of their stories, man, they are heartbreaking because people were not allowed to communicate with their families. It was almost like we were in Cuba, we were in some communist country where our citizens were arrested and then frozen from their families and their homes and everything and every connection that they possibly had. So it's really, really sad hearing that. The other thing that struck me, Damon, was there was a few folks still, I think there are 12 that are still in prison that might warrant a pardon as well. I'm not sure all of them do, but there are still some that people are advocating for to try and help them get a pardon. And I can tell you this much, I was on Facebook half the day battling over January 6th because of course all the liberals are like, oh my God. Yeah, this is when the mutiny happened. This is when the insurrection happened. And, and we all know the truth to that. Just watch the documentary we have on our Real America's Voice new app. I don't know if you've seen that, but we have a documentary on January 6 that tells the real story. So that's some of my impressions. What about you?

[Damon]

Well, obviously I've always focused on a lot of what you said. But the thing that you can't help but miss. I mean, you can't miss when you think about the Democrats and their reaction to this day and you think about the Salem witch trials and you think about the committees and the panels that we saw, Liz Cheney and all of these member Cassidy Hutchinson, all that testimony. They're just liars. They're liars, they're opportunists. And they have been with January 6th all these years as well. Meanwhile, we all see with our own eyes what happens in Portland. We see what happens around the country in all these liberal cities. You know, you're talking about people who were put in prison for essentially jaywalking, some of them. And that's not an understatement. That's exactly what most of it was. Some of it was jaywalking. Yeah, there was some, there was some knuckleheads for sure. But you know, and Then you see what happens in New York City, and you see what happens in these blue toilet towns with cops getting Molotov cocktails thrown at them in Minnesota and burning down police stations and Portland attacking federal office buildings. And what happens to these people? They're in the door, in the front door, out the back door, and the Democrats never have anything to say about it. They don't write any letters about it. They don't get together and sing Christmas songs about it. They don't get together and sing the national anthem or God Bless America like they were doing today. No, we don't hear from them on any of that. We all have our issues with the FBI and the Department of Justice. And when it came to January 6, it seemingly, the Biden administration had every technology that they ran and what they went to. You know, again, when they have power, there is no end to the power they will use, especially when they're targeting their political opponents, whether it's at churches, whether it's in parking lots, at school board meetings, or whether it was January 6th. They went to no ends to get these people. They didn't care about what they actually did, what the law was. You know, it was the one time that they're the reverse of normally, how they are. Obviously, people come across the border illegally, they don't care about the law, they don't care about the Constitution. They try to burn it down January 6th, all of a sudden, they cared about all of that. They cared about the law, they cared about making sure they stuck it to these people as much as they could. So those are the things I think about.

[Vinny Mac]

Yeah. You know, the irony of all of this, to all the things you just said about all the effort and attempts our government made and. And our justice system made to not only make January 6th a horrific, horrific event politically, but really it was centered around taking Donald Trump down. All these people were casualties, in a sense, of taking Donald Trump down, finally trying to just put him, finish off Trump, put him down so he can never come back. And the irony of it is, he comes back, he wins the presidency, he wins the House, he wins the Senate, and it all failed. Their attempts of blowing this country up, our political system, of essentially just hacking away at the rules that we have to vote and elect our leaders, trying to lie and shape things through this injustice, that they perpetrated all this to stop Donald Trump. Just think about that, Damon, the magnitude of the fact that Donald Trump survived it. He came back in all the court cases that followed that, and then an attempted assassination and he wins. I mean, if this were a Hollywood script, we'd walk out of the theater and say, yeah, that was a great movie, but that's just unbelievable. That could never happen in real life, and it did. So I just think that that's an ironic moment and a real slap in the face of the Democrats who tried to so hard to take this guy down. Even this, this BS insurrection nonsense that they, that they, that they moved forward with. And they lost. They lost.

[Damon]

Yeah, it's. It's kind of like a duel. You feel both ways. You feel for the people who got really run over the coals in this thing. But the other part of it is anger. When you think about Adam Schiff, Adam Kinzinger, Liz Cheney, Benny Thompson, all the worst of the worst that sat on the Salem witch trials. Cassidy Hutchinson who perjured herself. Nothing's happened to her. Nothing's happened to any of these people. But most of all, Nancy PELOSI and Mitch McConnell. And, oh yes, I include Mitch McConnell in that and the sergeant in arms who dealt with both of them. I'm still convinced that Nancy Pelosi knew what would happen that day. Steven Sund, we heard with John Solomon talk about the little information he was getting. I think that was on purpose. I think they knew that this thing was a recipe to boil over. And I think Nancy Pelosi did everything she could to try to frame Trump for everything that they tried to frame that day as I don't think there's any doubt about that. We've seen the reports from the House, from Jim Jordan's committee. We've seen the interviews John Solomon's done with Steven Sund. We saw the movies that her daughter was taken. Pelosi's knee deep in this. She's never going to pay a price for it. Kinzinger is never going to pay a price for it. Liz Cheney is never going to pay a price for it for it. Benny Thompson's never going to pay a price for it. That other slime ball who was on there, what's his name? He's never going to pay a price for it either. It is a long list and it's infuriating. And I saw the White House's website that they put up today, and I was glad to see Pelosi dead front and center, higher than everybody else on the front page, because that's where she deserves to be, because she tried to frame the President that day and tried to make it as she knew what that day could be. And she did everything she could to make it as bad as it could, and then turn around and say, well, where's this guy? Look, he's not doing anything. When we know President Trump took not only action that day, but some might call it decisive action.

[Vinny Mac]

Yeah.

[Damon]

To come out with that video. We know what he said at that speech, that they still try to edit videos around. So it's a travesty. It's a disaster. And unfortunately, none of the Democrats who are way more culpable for all the things having to do with January 6th than President Trump is, we'll never pay any price about it.

[Vinny Mac]

And you left out one person, Mike Pence. You know, where's Mike Pence and all this stuff? Was he just another one of those rhinos like Mitch McConnell that wanted Trump out and finished? But if you look at the narratives that we've seen, I don't know since. Well, we've seen it all along with Obama and so on. But more recently, we went through a narrative in Covid that turned out to be just absolute fiction. Right. We find out years later it's absolute fiction. We go through the narrative of Russia, absolute fiction. We go through the narrative of January 6th, absolute fiction. Now we're dealing with current events like this Venezuela thing and so on. And you hear their narrative. The government shut down the narrative on that whole shutdown. All the Republicans shut it down, but they voted to open the government like 20 times. Right. But these are consistent narratives. All the riots we had with the peaceful protesters, put all of these into one giant bucket. And I think you'll be astonished to find the American people just not believing anymore the left. There certainly are the mutants that are battling with me on Facebook that are dug in no matter what. But I think that's less and less. Cuz how many times can they just completely falsify information and not lose people who are just saying it's just a little too much. After what I heard about COVID what I heard about Russia, what I heard about this, that's a little too much. I don't believe it anymore. What do you think about that in totality?

[Damon]

I don't know. You know, I was listening to all this. I was listening to Bannon this morning and I thought he made a really good point because of all of the journalists. And you think about how people dealt with January 6th. Julie Kelly probably doesn't get the prop she deserves on the reporting she did. And according to Bannon, I actually didn't know this, but according to Bannon, it was really Julie Kelly who sat in the courtroom and listened to the facts, spent hours walking President Trump through some of these cases, which led to once he kind of understood, he said, which kind of led to the pardons and commutations that happened. So maybe there's still some there that need to happen. But when you think about the reporting on all this and the people who really did Yeoman's work, you certainly have to put her at the top of the list. And I don't agree with her on everything for sure. But I think when it comes to January 6, the work that we did on this network, Ben Berkwam did Cowboy Logic, who's really dedicated most of what they've done on this network to cover in J6 and stand in the gap and organizations like that. You know, this network can hold its head high on the way we've covered it and talked about it and the things we've gotten involved with.

[Vinny Mac]

For sure, we, I think, were central command for the truth of what happened January 6th. And I'm waiting to see what Pam Bondi has to say about any of this stuff, like who's actually gonna start. She has to start taking action soon. She has to. It's been a year. I've given her every pass and break that we possibly can. Anyhow, we got we're going to be going to break here in a second jamin. We're going to break for commercial. We'll, we'll be on socials though, I think talking live. Right? Okay, we will. So stick around. We'll be back talking about all the things that happened today. Live from Studio 6B. All right, Vinnie Mac here back live from Studio 6B. Tuesday, January 6th. We were just talking about the J6ers. And back in the studio, I think we've got Rick Delgado and Slick Rick here. They both were able to count to 10, 10 independently of each other, which was very important. Look at Delgado. He's lounging around relaxing, you know, having a good time. I haven't seen you guys in a bit. Everybody have a good New Year and everything. I know you probably talked about that last night, but since I missed you, how'd it go?

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, that's right then. Happy New Year.

[Vinny Mac]

Thank you.

[Rick Delgado]

Hopefully you and everyone in your family had a great new Year and everything's happy and healthy.

[Vinny Mac]

It was nice. I was in Sarasota and they do a, you know, we do the ball drop in New York City. In Sarasota, they do a pineapple drop, which I was very confusing. You're in Florida. You think it would be an orange or Something. But it's a pineapple drop that drops.

[Rick Delgado]

Did it hit you in the head?

[Vinny Mac]

It did. Nobody. No. No casualties on the pineapple. But it just seemed unusual. Like they would do a drop of pineapple. Like, what does that even mean? But it was nice. It was a very nice New Year's. And here we are, 2026, live from Studio 6B. That's it. That's our year. This is our big year coming up. 206. For all of us here at RAV.

[Slick Rick]

In 6B, it's evidenced by tonight's production.

[Rick Delgado]

We are off to a rousing term.

[Vinny Mac]

Well, let me ask you a question. How do you pronounce my last name?

[Rick Delgado]

But.

[Slick Rick]

That was bootiful.

[Vinny Mac]

If you think it's beautiful. I heard last night with Paul, you were talking and Paul was mispronouncing my name as well, so I guess it's consistent. I think Damon's the only one that actually can pronounce my last name properly. Thank you, Damon.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, I'm working on him, though. Hopefully he'll start screwing it up soon.

[Vinny Mac]

Did you guys get a chance to see more of the coverage on this whole Venezuela thing? Just heads are on fire. I don't know if you looked Facebook there, Delgado, and saw some of the battles that I was facing today regarding Venezuela. Did you have any yourself?

[Rick Delgado]

I had a bunch, actually. One in particular I decided to post because just the silliness of the liberal side is amazing. How it's. It's great that it happened. It just sucks for them that it was Trump that did it. Because when you look at the past comments that they had, you know, they had no problem with anything Obama did, whether it be in Libya, whether it be American guns, whether it be any. Any of the. Any of the things he did throughout his. His two ten years as president. You bring those up and all of a sudden their hair catches on fire because they're freaking out. Like, wait, you're not supposed to notice that kind of stuff. Yeah, it's okay that he did it. He indiscriminately used drones and killed hundreds of people or thousands of people. But don't you let Trump do it? I mean, that's the whole thing. It's. It's great if it happens. It just sucks that it was Trump that did it because. Makes him look good. And as you see from their reactions, what do they do? They run to the other side. We have to support dictators now. We have to support drug addicts, drug runners, you know, Marxists and socialists. They have to support all the criminals, because Trump pushes them to say, look, either you do good stuff, where we're going to try and be the good guys, or you're going to be on this side. Of course, their delusion has them running for the other direction. It's amazing to watch.

[Vinny Mac]

Yeah. I was going back and forth a friend of mine today because Doug, my far left liberal friend, I was about.

[Rick Delgado]

To say, was Doug in?

[Vinny Mac]

Yeah, Doug dug in big time. But what I was trying to explain to him was this entire event of capturing Maduro and getting him out and doing the things that our folks did so well, so surgically, so precise. This is bigger than Venezuela. This is a bit of a global reset in the sort of microcosm of Venezuela, because at the heart of Venezuela was China, wheeling and dealing, trying to get in our backyard, getting oil from them, having strategic presence in our hemisphere, Russia having strategic presence in our hemisphere, doing all of this stuff to try and get in our sort of hair. And Iran and Cuba, you have these four entities that this one event affects so significantly, it puts everybody on notice and is a bit of a global reset, like Trump literally has reset the map in many, many ways. There's, I think they announced today 30 to 50 million gallons of oil, which we now control, and we're gonna be selling on behalf of Venezuela and sharing the money with the Venezuelans and our country. But that's where China was getting a lot of their oil from Russia and Venezuela. That's where Iran was partnering in doing all sorts of espionage. That's where Cuba was getting their fuel. It just has such huge implications. I'm wondering, Damon, what do you think about that? What's your view on sort of the global side of that, that whole event?

[Damon]

I talked about it last night. Been in the first word, but when you think about China being there, shaking hands with Maduro, taking pictures, what about 4 or 5 hours before our boys lit up the sky?

[Vinny Mac]

Yeah.

[Damon]

You know, people will argue that this makes China more aggressive towards Taiwan. I don't know. I think it's the opposite. I think it makes them less aggressive towards Taiwan. But, yeah, I agree with a lot of what you said. Trump just resets the narrative. And again, it's for the people complaining about, again, that here is the left, just we talked about January 6th. Here they are screaming about the Constitution and the law and it's illegal and it's this and it's that and it's everything else. It's amazing how they wrap themselves in it when it fits their narrative. But if the whole thing is over before you can brew a cup of coffee. I think it's pretty much more of a spicy arrest than it is some war that he's taking us to. So, you know, I agree with what you said. Trump just doesn't care. He's going to do diplomacy on his timing the way he wants to do it, and however you want to characterize it, you can characterize it. But I think it's pretty clear he's not listening to podcasters, and I don't think he's too influenced when it comes to Israel, when it comes to Bibi, when it comes to how he's going to do these things around the world. He's going to do what Trump does because he's transactional.

[Rick Delgado]

He's.

[Damon]

He understands these things. He had success in his first four years, and he's not changing now for anybody.

[Vinny Mac]

Yeah, I'm curious to get Delgado's take on this particular question, and that is that for probably two decades, maybe more, we've had bluffers as leaders in this country, red lines drawn that people cross without ramifications. Bluff, bluff, bluff, bluff, bluff. And then we got Donald Trump who, you know, comes out and says, you know, with the thing about Iran, and look, if you guys don't want to cooperate, we're gonna do something, we're gonna do something.

[Audio Clip Speaker]

He waited.

[Vinny Mac]

He waited, but he didn't wait his whole presidency. He waited a few weeks, a few months, boom, we took it out. Same thing with Maduro Delgado. What's your take on that? He's not bluffing, but we've always bluffed, which is a bit of a shock to the system, wouldn't you say?

[Rick Delgado]

Well, yeah, and I think that's what the world, you know, kind of viewed the United States as, you know, with, with the, with the pansy leaders that we've had in the past that, you know, talk to, good game, oh, you know, we're going to do this. And they saber rattle, but they never really backed it up with any action. And we always saw that. We saw that with Obama's line in the sand, that that was continually crossed, and he did nothing about it. Now, we know in hindsight, of course, he did nothing about it because that's what he wanted to do, nothing about it. It was almost like he was inviting them because, again, remember, he used to lead from behind. That was his big thing. We're going to stop being out front, and we're going to lead from behind. Well, lead from behind means you're following and you're getting your ass Kicked at the same time with, with the whole Venezuelan thing too. Don't, don't forget, not only do you have Venezuela, China, Russia, Cuba, all affected. Colombia is also. Yeah, affected as well as Mexico. Mexico and Colombia are two countries now that are kind of, kind of don't know where to turn because, because they were also pass throughs for a lot of the shenanigans that were going on. And Venezuela almost was the hub, you could call it the Ukraine of the, of Central America. Yeah, right. Because we saw with Ukraine, Germany being involved with, with how they got natural gas and oil. European Union also tied to Russia because of gas and oil and all the influence there. And there was a lot of, you know, oh, yeah, we're, we're tough on this. But you know, they were still, they were still doing a lot of.

[Vinny Mac]

Yep.

[Rick Delgado]

And that's what I think, that's what I think scares a lot of people in the Democrat Party moving forward on this. And I talked about this last night. It's like, who is Maduro going to roll on? Whose names are going to start to pop up on the Democrat side, on the Republican side, out of the House, out of the Senate, who was, who was in bed with this guy, helping propping him up, you know, and you never know, some of these guys gonna be like, hey, I don't want to spend my life in prison or I want a cushy, you know, tennis club.

[Vinny Mac]

We got to go to break here. Delgado. All right, back live from Studio 6B, Tuesday, January 6th. Huge, huge day. I'm going to send this over to my main man Damon, who's going to take us through the next hour here, Damon. So, Damon, you got your driver's license here, you got. The turning wheels are off. Let's, let's see you take it from here.

[Damon]

All right, Vinnie Mac, hour two, live from Studio 6, speed, nine o' clock on the East Coast. Again, technical difficulties here tonight in New York, but we are here with you. We got the boys on the other side of the studio. Slick Ricks here. I'll try to get some sports done. Delgad's going to have some news. Vinnie Mac's got some other news as well. I just want to finish up though, on what we talked about on Maduro and the oil and energy. Because there was a piece today in the American Thinker talking about this entitled, with the Maduro arrest, the US Lands a heavy blow. I think that was the name of it. And part of the article, Vin, was that it said something to the effect of, with the Return of American energy corporations like Chevron and ExxonMobil and ConocoPhillips to previously annulled Venezuela production contracts, the US gains a decisive new space on the geopolitical chessboard. Venezuela possesses massive oil reserves of over 300 billion barrels. Difficult to extract, difficult to refine, but strategically invaluable. With US companies reentering production, the US now gains practical control over the flow of this crude oil. Exports to China, in particular now come under US oversight. China was at times Venezuela's largest oil customer. For Washington, this now provides an additional lever. It could slow the subsidy machine of the Chinese export sector to give its own industry breathing space. And it creates leverage to push Beijing towards concessions and ongoing disputes such as over microchips and rare earths. So I think that's a huge part of the story here, the kind of what we were touching on, the energy part here, and that's why I said earlier, I don't know that this makes them more aggressive towards Taiwan. I think this makes them less aggressive. And what do you think?

[Vinny Mac]

Yeah, it's a global shift and I agree with you completely. I think it makes them less aggressive. First off, most of the oil companies in this country that were doing business with Venezuela before all these kooks came in and destroyed the country, they're owed huge amounts of money and they were helping refine all this stuff and do all the things they're doing with us now in control of this. This is the global reset. I mean, think of the implications. We went from, you know, supplying our own energy, being somewhat independent if we wanted to be, and exporting some oil to now controlling a huge part of oil export. Two countries we're not that friendly with. China, Cuba, you know, those are two countries in particular. Now all of a sudden you're seeing things really cook in Cuba about overthrow. You might not see the saber rattling on Taiwan. You know this if you're negotiating with China, Trump's in a room with Xi and they're having a discussion. Now, how do you think, how different do you think that discussion's gonna go than it maybe had gone six months ago? It's gonna be really different. Xi needs the oil. They don't produce anything there. So this is. The oil's a big piece of it. And I heard all of my left wing friends, it's all about oil. It's all about oil. It's all about a lot of things. It's not just oil, but the oil. Yeah, it helps us with this global reset. And through one surgical strike, one Surgical extraction of a criminal. Look at the result here. It's mind blowing when you see the broad, broad implications here.

[Damon]

Yeah, go ahead, Delgado.

[Rick Delgado]

You know what, I tend to agree. And, you know, it does send, it does kind of reset things. My question is, this is China we're dealing with, Vin.

[Vinny Mac]

Yeah.

[Rick Delgado]

If you think they're just going to roll over, I don't think we're, that's what we're going to see. We might see a complete opposite reaction because, look, in their culture, they have to save face. They cannot be, can't be held over a barrel like this and, and let it be an oil bound. They might do something stupid or aggressive because they need to kind of, like I said, save face. Like, wait, we can't allow this to happen. I'd be afraid that might happen. Hopefully they'll be smarter heads in China to say, you know what, let's just play this out and see what happens. Because like you said, they do need the oil. But I would, Something makes me think that they might, they might have some poison pill somewhere or try something to kind of, to kind of spur things and draw us into something else or some disease. I would just kind of, kind of be a little leery of that kind of move by, by, by a country like China.

[Vinny Mac]

Yeah, I don't, I don't think they're, I don't think we have a president that's going to take the tactic of saying, all right, well, give us all this stuff or we're giving no oil. I think what Trump's gonna do is try and chip away at a couple of things that are really going on. Cooperate with them, give him, you know, sell them oil. We need the revenue. He wants the revenue for Venezuela and others. I don't think he's gonna draw that harsh line in the sand. But it is a reset, I think, without question, with China. But I don't see it being a very, very hard line in the sand to really push them into a corner. They're too powerful. They have nuclear weapons. They're super important for the global economy. There's all these other implications, but it does, it, it does reset things. That's all. That's really my point. It does reset them.

[Damon]

Yeah. All right, let's do some, let's do some news. There are some news, especially since we're talking about this, because I know Delgado's got some story, some stories on Maduro, that little schmucky boy Chuck Schumer, and US allies and adversaries using this UN meeting to critique Venezuela. So, Delgado, why don't you tell us what's going on with some of this?

[Rick Delgado]

Well, of course, you know, when you're talking about the left and the Democrat reaction. You mentioned it yourself, David Schmuckey. Schum rumor out on blast blasting Trump for failing to oust Maduro. This is back in 2020. Now, remember, in 2020 and leading up through at least until last Saturday, Democrats were all about getting Maduro out of, out of the leadership position in Venezuela. Nearly six years ago, according to this from msn, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer delivered a Senate floor speech slamming President Trump. His State of the union remarks in 2020, including ripping the president over the fact that Venezuelan dictator President Nicolas Maduro was still in power. Here is that cut number three. Here's Schmucky Schumer, so you can hear it for yourself. Cut three. Check this out.

[Audio Clip Speaker]

Maybe the best metaphor was his claim to bring democracy to Venezuela. There was a big policy there. It flopped. If the policy was working, Juan Guaido wouldn't be in the balcony here. He'd be in Venezuela. He'd be sitting in the president's palace or at least waging a fight to win. He's here and the president brags about his Venezuela policy. Give us a break. He hasn't brought an end to the Maduro regime. The Maduro regime is more powerful today and more entrenched today than it was when the president began.

[Damon]

Yeah.

[Rick Delgado]

More powerful now until you fast forward five years. And now here's what Schmuckey Schumer had to say. Here's cut number four. Now he's blaming Trump for actually doing something about it, but he's more upset that they didn't tell him what was going on. Cut number four. Check this out.

[Audio Clip Speaker]

Now, I was in the SCIF on three different occasions as recently as December. And I asked the administration, I said, I asked them, are you pursuing regime change? Are you intent on taking military action in Venezuela, Venezuela territory? And they assured me that they were not pursuing those things. Clearly, they're not being straight with the American people. So I've been talking to so many members of my caucus today. Everybody is very, very just totally, totally, totally troubled, worried about how dangerous this is.

[Damon]

Oh, what do we do?

[Rick Delgado]

Very worried.

[Damon]

What a schmuck. Is there a dumber person on earth than that? Absolutely not. What a moron. They're not telling you, dummy. Are you going to go do this or do that? Yeah, we'll just tell you. So you can run to Rachel Maddow or Whatever you're. I mean, give me a break with this guy. I want to.

[Audio Clip Speaker]

Moron.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, that, that was his big thing. He's upset they didn't tell him, which. Which tells you they probably couldn't trust him because it's schmucky Schumer. You can't trust him. And then of course over at the un, both allies and adversaries is coming from the AP at the UN used an emergency meeting at the UN Security Council to voice, you guessed it, the opposition to the audacious US military action in Venezuela that captured leader Nicolas Maduro, one of their proudly favorites before the UN's most powerful bodies countries critiqued President Trump's intervention in the South American country and his recent comments signaling the possibility of expanding military actions to countries like Colombia and Mexico over the drug trafficking accusations. Republican president. The Republican President also re upped this threat to take over Danish territory, which I just think is like a little red meat he throws out there. See who responds for the sake of US security interests. Marco Rubio was asked about these comments and others at the, at the lectern here. Here is Marco Rubio responding to a stupid left wing Democrat reporter. Cut five. Marco Rubio, Listen to him. Take this guy apart.

[Marco Rubio]

You're wrong in your question. Number one, Venezuela is a major source and the reason why is the following. And I've seen a lot of this reporting and it's fake reporting. And I'll tell you why. It says that somehow Venezuela is not involved in the drug trade because the UN says they're not involved in the. Eugene, the un. I don't care what the UN says. The UN doesn't know what they're talking about. Maduro is indicted by a grand jury in the Southern District of New York. That means the Southern District of New York presented the evidence to a grand jury and a grand jury indicted him. And then a superseding indictment came out that was unsealed about a year and a half ago that specifically detailed Maduro's actions. So number one, let there be no doubt he, Nicolas Maduro is an indicted drug trafficker in the United States and he's a fugitive of American justice.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah. So there you have it, from Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

[Damon]

Hey, Vin, we talked. Yeah. By the way, I mean, could anyone have imagined Rubio being this good? I mean, maybe, but I mean, man.

[Slick Rick]

Man, is he good.

[Damon]

Marco, we talked about this yesterday. Vin, any concern on your part of this being in the Southern District of New York, and we're going to get a jury in New York here, Most likely in 2027 for this trial.

[Vinny Mac]

I'm more concerned about the judge than the jury. This judge and a lot of the judges that we seem to have. This is, you know, a left wing judge. He's got a, you know, he's an older judge, by the way. I think he's 90 something.

[Damon]

92. 92.

[Slick Rick]

Come on.

[Vinny Mac]

92. I might, might be to hang the robe up and hang out and watch reruns of Bonanza or something, but I'm more concerned about the judge than I am about the jury. I would prefer this in Florida for obvious reasons, but that's where I kind of land with most of these things. The judge always seems to be the ones that are enabling these cases not to go the way they're supposed to go based on the facts. So that's my view of it.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah.

[Damon]

All right, Very good. Live from Studio 6B. Twelve minutes past the hour. We are live in New York. Not exactly the way we want to be, but we're here with you. Vinnie Max in West Palm Beach. Slick's going to do some sports. Delgado will have some more news. Vinnie Mac's got some more news as well. I want to remind you, we talked a little bit about before, but it is January 6th, the anniversary. And I want to remind you, if you haven't downloaded Anthem, Anthem of the Free on itunes, what a better day to do it than today. Hit number one. Let's get it back to number one. Turn the woke music industry on its head. So if you haven't downloaded it yet, go to the itunes store. Download Anthem of the Free. Remember, downloading and streaming it just as important. We want to download it though, as well. And of course, we want to support our friends over at Stand in the Gap, support the families. Their life has been brutal. And of course, it's real aid for real people. Net proceeds from the song goes to Stand in the Gap organization, which is a non for profit dot org. So again, go download that stream. And if you haven't. And like Vince said, we got a brand new app that you can watch the sleeping giant on the new RAV app. Download that, sign up, get on board with that. That's going to be great, too. Colin, take us out. Let's hit the break. We're back live from Studio 6B right after this.

[Rick Delgado]

Sam.

[Damon]

All right. Live from studio 6p17 past the hour on a Tuesday night. We are live in New York, not the way we expected, but we are here. I'm here. Vinnie Mac is in West Palm Beach. Rick Delgado, Slick Rick on the other side of the studio here in New York. Glad you're in on a Tuesday. Some technical difficulties out of new. But we made it work. We're here. You got to do what you got to do. Live television. We're just thankful that you live from Studio 6B audience is here. Thankful to everybody in West Palm who jumped in and said, we'll, we'll help you save the boat here and not sink tonight. So we appreciate that. Colin and crew down there taking us through as well. We'll get to some more news with Vinnie Mac. We'll get to some more news with headlines with Rick Delgado. But let's do a little touch on sports. We were talking during the break, some news in sports today. John Harbaugh gets fired by the Baltimore Ravens. And Slick, you were talking about this, that you thought he was fighting for his job and today they let him go, which is really unbelievable. What's become of the NFL? This is a guy who took him to 12 years straight in the playoffs. 18 years, I believe he was there, 12 in the playoffs. A Super bowl win and one season like this with your quarterback hurt and they lose. And now he's gone. Unbelievable.

[Slick Rick]

Unbelievable. John Harvard, his agent said he took seven calls from NFL teams in the first 45 minutes after the announcement of his firing. Totally disrespectful. I think it's a black eye for the Baltimore franchise, whether they wanted to move on or not. You can't blame him with Lamar Jackson being out half the year between concussion, elbow, knee. That was really. When you have your top quarterback out, it's very difficult to win, obviously. Actually it's impossible. Let's call it what it is. But yeah, sad to see that somebody's going to be very fortunate to land him. I know the folks up in here in New York, actually, both New York teams would love to have him. I don't think the jets are ready to move on from Aaron Glenn just yet, but I can tell you the Giants are in the market for a coach. And if they take Mike McCarthy over John Harbaugh, you stop that. That could be the biggest gaff of all time, but we shall see. So let's get the sports going on from Tin Can Alley over here. Sweden tops Chechia wins third world junior crown.

[Rick Delgado]

Unbelievable.

[Slick Rick]

ESPN News, St. Paul, Minnesota. New York Islanders prospect Victor Eklund and Casper Juiceroma scored first period goals Monday night as Sweden won its third world hockey title, defeating Chechia 4:2 on Monday night in the first all European final since 2016. Sweden, which also won an 81 in 2012, received a goal from Sasha Burmain to take a 3 nothing lead at the 347 the third period and wrapped to this latest title. Adam Jurzek and Maciej Kubecia scored for Chechiya, a country that won its loan titles in 2000 and 2001. Kubesha's tally however was with 24 seconds left in the game with it all but decided. Ivar Stenberg then capped the scoring for Sweden with an empty netter which with 8 seconds left and well they go. They got the gold. Now it's on to Olympic ice hockey, which we can't wait from Italy. That'll be taking place next month and we have NHL players. So I'm getting excited. This was a great warm up. Nice to see the island of prospects. I know Vin is over there smiling, seeing Victor Eklund do what he did. And that's great because it'll be coming up onto the team. And just one more story. Big D NASCAR moving over to the racetrack. Commissioner Steve Phelps resigns after calling racing legend a stupid redneck. That's a quote there. Warner, Todd, Houston and Breitbart. Nassau Commissioner Steve Phelps has resigned following backlash over the controversial text he sent last year. Well, this year was only a couple of days ago, right? Phelps was made Nassau's first commissioner last year, but now says he will leave at the end of the month before the start of the 2026 season. According to ESPN, the resignation follows of some of the texts he sent to NASCAR leadership during the vetting process. In one text, for instance, Phelps supposedly called hall of Fame team owner Richard Childress. Great one, right? A stupid redneck who needs to be taken out back and flogged. That's pretty strong. You know, you gotta watch. I mean, this is the same thing that. Right. I mean, John Gruden got a lot of trouble. You gotta be careful with your neck. You put it in writing, you know it's there forever. That's the problem. The text revelation prompted Bass Pro shops found that Johnny Mars the Paul Phelps for his resignation. Obviously big sponsor, right? Morris blasted Phelps and NASCAR over the text. We can't help but wonder what would happen if Major League Baseball brought in a new commissioner and he or she trash talk one of the true legends who built the game like Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Ted Williams, Mickey Mantle or Babe Ruth. Morris said such blatant disrespect would probably not sit well with the fans. Such a commissioner most likely wouldn't or shouldn't keep his job for very long, his or her job. In fact. As a lifelong race fan, it gives me immense pride to have served as NASCAR's first commissioner and to lead our great sport through many incredible challenges, opportunities and first over my 20 years there.

[Damon]

For a long time.

[Rick Delgado]

Right?

[Slick Rick]

Phelps said in the statement on Tuesday. Our sport is built on the passion of our fans and so on and so forth. He continues saying, you will pursue new pursuits in sports and other industries. Yeah, good luck finding a job. His political correctness means a little work there, at least from that perspective. You got to be careful when you're in leadership like that. You know, one thing to say what you say behind the scenes, but when you got a hot mic or you got yourself, you know, text messaging or putting in an email again, Jon Gruden is still trying to break back into the NFL. And that's a wrap in sports Big.

[Damon]

D back to you by Mike Lindell. LFS6B is the promo code to use. Vinny Max in the West Palm beach studio, he's got some news. Well, Jasmine Crockett's on your mind. Vinny Mac, why is that?

[Vinny Mac]

I'm almost embarrassed to say Jasmine Crockett's on my mind. Huh? Oh my goodness. Well she's on my mind for good reason because they did a little redistricting in Texas which basically meant she's out of a seat. She's got no seat anymore. Well that went to the Supreme Court and the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Texas and that seems to be what's on her. It gotten her furious now cuz she threw a few F bombs towards the Supreme Court into Trump for redistricting and all the other nonsense. But it's just another example of all the nastiness the left have done to us in redistricting. I don't know if you recall during the whole Covid thing they sent their lawyers into every state and changed voting in almost every state of our country. They outfoxed the Republicans state by state so they pushed all this fraud. So everything they seem to do is centered around some sort of of fraud. And the Republicans are taking corrective actions now. The redistricting is one of them. The Rhinos in Indiana didn't pass it through, but Texas looks like it's happening. Other states are doing it as well. I think Florida is gonna pick up a couple of seats so she's having a fit cuz she has no seat. So that's why I got a little hot and bothered by Jasmine Crockett. And in a good Way too.

[Damon]

I think we have, I think we have actually a cut of hers, Colin, if you have it, fire up. Cut to. Let's hear this moron what she had to say.

[Rick Delgado]

Definitely kudos to the Trump justice who.

[Damon]

Wrote the 160 page opinion denouncing what.

[Rick Delgado]

Took place in Texas and you to the Supreme Court for what they did. As well as. We'll see what happens in some other places.

[Damon]

I was just about to call for the bomb there, but it didn't last. But you know what's nice about that clip actually is to see her return to her. Her thug life roots, not her that she, that, you know, she puts on this. Well, actually, no, that's kind of her fake thing. She kind of puts on the, the thuganomics, as John Cena would say.

[Vinny Mac]

Yeah.

[Damon]

But really she's kind of, she's kind of brought up in the. About the straightest all American family, you know, well to do parents in a well to do place. But she acts like she came from the streets of Harlem or Compton, which is a joke.

[Vinny Mac]

Just like aoc. They're two phonies. They're two phonies that have tried to convince the public that they are, you know, street people. They were with you in the street. They grew up tough. AOC did not. She barely spent any time in the Bronx. She ran in that district because nobody votes. And she was an easy win. There was really no one to run against. And same thing with Jasmine Crockpot. You know, they get in there and they try and play that card. And that was, by the way, the right card, if you want to be a strategist about this. Because that's what the left has basically propagated, that, you know, these are the people we're keeping down. So, you know, we got to burn down the cities and make everything right. So they kind of, you know, they're actors. I think they both deserve an Emmy for their acting, for sure.

[Damon]

Anything else on your new radar right now, Vinny Mac?

[Vinny Mac]

Yeah, I wanted to talk a little bit about the U.N. delgado brought it up about the U.N. and when Marco Rubio was responding to that question. And I was thinking about the UN today, not that particular clip, but the UN in general. Here is two leaders, by the way, Chavez and Madaro, who both ruined Venezuela. We're both heavily involved in the drug trade. Where is the un Isn't this the stuff they're supposed to do? Isn't this the body we set up to sort of police the world in a way from these types of tyrants? And illegal actors and criminals. Isn't this one of the major reasons the UN even exists, which we pay for? Where are they?

[Damon]

All right, 30 minutes past the hour. Live from Studio 6B on a interesting Tuesday night right here, Real America's Voice. We're in New York, Slick Rick and Rick Delgado. On the other side of the studio, Vinnie Mac is in West Palm Beach. Vinnie Mac was having a in depth conversation about the UN and we just blew right into the break without me even realizing it, because I'm totally off my game here tonight. So I apologize for that to the audience. But Vinnie Mac, I loved what you were saying. It was beautiful. Now say it again and ask Delgado the question and maybe this time he'll answer.

[Slick Rick]

Now on the clock.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah.

[Vinny Mac]

Can you turn the prompter on? Yeah, no, there's no prompter here. You ran that clip of Rubio talking about the UN and so on. And I've been thinking today about something a little different regarding the un. The UN was set up to protect us and the world and sort of police the world in a sense from these tyrants and criminals. And it seems like there's another institution that is sort of part of this global reset in a way. Cuz the UN is there to try and protect us from people like Maduro trying to protect us from criminals and all those types of things. Yet they existed and they continue to exist and they did nothing. You're talking about two decades of Chavez and Maduro. You're talking about a long time of this type of rule, this type of corruption. Maduro took it to a whole nother level. But the UN has done nothing, nothing but show us their level of corruption, I guess. But herein lies perhaps another reset. And I wanted to get your thoughts on that, Delgado, on that particular angle. Like where's the un, where should they be? And should we just toss this thing out the window now? Because if they can't do their job, why even have them exist?

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, I mean, I'm going to go with option number three, as you say, let's do it. Let's do them Russian style and push them out of a 10 story window. Because that's where the UN belongs. Splattered on the street for no one to ever deal with again, let's face it. And I think I talked about this a couple months ago and I looked into it, trying to find anything, any war that the UN has actually stopped. And the total count that I came up with, Vin, is zero. Why? Because they don't actually do anything except collect money from Countries like us and try and tell us what to do while they put in, you know, they'll put in, you know, all these Muslim countries to be in charge of women's affairs because we know how much they love women over there. But this is what they do that they are the. You know how we have the Democratic Party here in this country and they're a bunch of grifters. The same with a bunch of Republicans as well. The unit parties. The. The UN is the world version. You've got all these grifters, all these, you know, leaders from these countries who basically just show up to collect checks, divert money, claim that they're doing something, live high on the hog, and basically try and push their weight around and tell everybody what to do. And. Yeah, and we see no benefit from it.

[Vinny Mac]

Zero.

[Rick Delgado]

So I'm gonna opt with choice number three and push the UN out of a ten story window.

[Vinny Mac]

Yeah. This is why when people are freaking out that Trump is taking certain action. Nigeria, obviously, Iran, and then this Venezuela thing, and there might be more, who knows what's gonna happen out of this. It's really because the UN has proven to be exactly what you said, useless. Someone's gotta take action here because it affects us the most when all these crazy things kind of happen and all these bad people are in power. So shame on them. And we pay for the damn thing.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah. And remember that there have been instances where we've seen UN peacekeepers, you know, delivering weapons and stuff to terrorists and bad guys. This is their modus operandi throughout their existence. It seems like they've never really done anything, but they propped themselves up because I think way back when they were first put together, they thought, well, maybe this will help bring stability to the world. If anything, it's made it more dangerous. Especially when you put criminals in charge of the UN and they tell us we're bad guys. Yeah, they can stick it.

[Vinny Mac]

Yeah, yeah, the intentions were there. I'm with you on that.

[Damon]

I mean, here's how much of a joke the UN is. I believe it was yesterday they actually held an emergency meeting so that the Secretary General could condemn the US for arresting Maduro. That was yesterday. They held this meeting. Now meanwhile, on any given week, the Iranian government probably murders hundreds of Iranian civilians. The UN is nowhere to be found. But yet here they are holding an emergency meeting yesterday so that the Secretary General can condemn the US for arresting a communist narco terrorist dictator who has an indictment and a superseding indictment here in the US and we went in and got them they held an emergency meeting for that. Kill hundreds of your civilians, though. You'll never hear from them.

[Vinny Mac]

No, no, no. And by the way, Maduro killed a lot of his own people, too. I mean, they have tortured and killed a lot of Venezuelan citizens. The proof is pretty clear, though, the amount of people that have come out that Venezuelan people that live here in the United States legally and illegally are, you know, cheering. The people in Venezuela are cheering. The only people protesting are non Venezuelans that are paid to go protest. And then the un. This proves my point. If they're gonna condemn this type of action, which is basically freeing people from tyranny and from being so poor they can't even make their next meal, that just proves our point. We should dismantle the thing. I agree with the UN in principle. When it was started after World War II, it made sense, like, okay, let's get the countries together and keep an eye on these types of things. Instead of someone like Hitler emerging. But they have found a way to line their pockets so significantly that they don't do anything.

[Rick Delgado]

So not only that, but enable many different types of Hitlers to follow suit.

[Vinny Mac]

Yeah. Yep.

[Damon]

Right?

[Rick Delgado]

It's amazing.

[Damon]

They sit there and they take the back. They condemn the U.S. they hold this special meeting yesterday to condemn the U.S. and they take the back of a guy who Over 50 of their members, I would say 50 countries, including the US don't even recognize as the legitimate president or leader of the country.

[Vinny Mac]

Yeah, yeah. And another point on that, and it came out of that Rubio clip. And I've been thinking about these words which I never thought I would repeat or say new World Order. But I'm thinking about those words because they asked Rubio a question. One of the most telling things I found in that clip that you ran before Delgado was Rubio saying, who cares what they think? They're wrong. That's not something the Secretary of State or one of our top diplomats would ever say. They would go to the UN and try and prove that there are weapons of mass destruction somewhere and go pitch the thing. You get the world behind us, and we're basically saying, you guys are terrible, you're liars, you're corrupt, and we don't give a crap what you say. The Secretary of the United States, Secretary of State, United States said that in that clip that you ran. Yeah, that's New World Order Ish.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, well, I don't know if that's New World Order ish, but it goes against New World Order.

[Vinny Mac]

The Old World Order.

[Rick Delgado]

The UN wanted to be that new world order. They wanted to be the world, the world government. That's, that's what they ultimately wanted. They're not getting it now and they'll never get it. And like you said, with Secretary Rubio basically saying we don't care what they say, then I guess the next step, Mr. Rubio, is saying, you know what, we're going to kind of kick you out of the country and we're not going to be part of this anymore because it's a feckless, useless organization.

[Damon]

One more thing on NATO, just because I saw this clip today. Did you see Austria's NATO enlargement Committee chairman, some guy named Frillinger or something like that says if the US Goes after Greenland, if they annex Greenland, we must confiscate all American bases in Europe. Says this guy, if you take Greenland, you have to leave. He says, wonder how that's going to go over at 1600 Pennsylvania.

[Vinny Mac]

I think Greenland's in their sights right now just from that comment. So, you know.

[Damon]

Yeah. All right, 39 past the hour, live from studio on a Tuesday. We got some time left here in this segment. Delgado, what else is, what else you got in your headlines?

[Rick Delgado]

This one you're going to love because it's your favorite guy, Damon Harry Anton, who loves the polls just like you do. Well, he predicted before this whole thing happened, the day before this whole thing went down in Venezuela. CNN's data guru Harry predicted that the capture of Venezuelan Nicolas Maduro would backfire politically for President Trump. He said the military operation Venezuela was unpopular even among Republicans. This was before Saturday's attack. Here is that clip. This is cut number six, Harry Anton's first swing on the poll. Cut number six. Check this out.

[Harry Anton]

Yeah, I'd be really surprised if this turns out to be a positive for Donald Trump or at least support for this operation. Why US military ousting Venezuela's president beforehand. Look at this, 47% opposed. Just 21% of Americans favored. The unsure was higher than the favor, 29% versus 21%. And get this, just 39% of Republicans favored. People are saying, oh, this could be a wag the dog moment. I have to ask, which dog are they wagging the tail of?

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, which dog, Damon, are they wagging the tail of? Anyhow, so after he threw that pole down against the president, of course, then the United States moved on. Nicolas Maduro, he was captured on Saturday. It was announced on Saturday. Well, Harry Anton was back when he was with a new poll, basically about 24 hours later. Here Is Harry Anton's brand new poll cut number seven, taking a swing at this now showing President Trump getting positive support cut number seven. Check this out.

[Damon]

Okay.

[Harry Anton]

US Military ousting Maduro pre ousting. What you saw was the clear plurality of Americans opposed at 47%. Just 21% support. Come over to this side of the screen after the ousting. Look at that, the support through the roof. Now we're talking about 37%, well within the margin of error right here of the opposition, 38%. It turns out Americans like what they deem to be successful foreign policy operations. And in this case they view the ousting of Maduro at least up to this point as a successful one. And therefore. Therefore the support way up.

[Damon]

Yeah.

[Rick Delgado]

Before underwater, now basically even.

[Vinny Mac]

What about the idea of putting Maduro on trial here in the United States?

[Harry Anton]

Yeah. You know, part of the reason why I think that the success number is way up and you saw it here. What was it? It was 26 points in favor of opposition now within the margin of error is because they simply put don't like Nicolas Maduro. In fact, they believe that he should be on trial for drug trafficking. Look at this. 50% of Americans favor compared to just 14% who oppose. So there are very few Americans here who oppose it. Even among Democrats, the opposition number is below. Get this, just 24% is below 25%.

[Vinny Mac]

Yeah.

[Rick Delgado]

So there you have it. Damon, get your singles, throw them at Harry Anton for another great show on the poll. But as you can see, as soon as the operation happened, Americans were asked and they seem to like what they're seeing coming out of the administration.

[Damon]

Well, especially when you, as we said, I think last night, when you compare it to, I think I said in my first word, when you compare what we saw in Iran and what we saw last night as opposed to the Afghanistan withdrawal, most Americans, I don't even care what side of the aisle you're on, most red blooded common sense Americans who don't want to see our men and women or our boys put in any kind of harm's way if they have to go and do something. They want to see what we saw in those two operations, not what we saw in Afghanistan. They want to see in, out, God willing, nobody hurt, get the job done and scramous.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah. And when you have somebody from like Adam Navarro on the View saying this is what we voted for.

[Damon]

Yeah.

[Rick Delgado]

Puts a bow on it for.

[Damon]

All right, 17 till the hour. Live from Studio Six. Speed. Colin, let's take us out. Let's hit the break. We'll come back, we'll wrap it up. We'll do a little more sports, a little more news, little more headlines. We'll get to all the boys one more time on a Tuesday night. Live from Studio 6B. We're back right after this.

[Rick Delgado]

Sam.

[Damon]

All right. Live from Studio 6B on a Tuesday night, 13 till the hour. Glad you're in everybody again. Want to thank everybody in West Palm beach jumping in as New York had some technical difficulties tonight. Colin and the boys holding it down for us in the big studio down there in West Palm Beach. Minnie Mac is there. Slick Rick, Rick Delgado here with me in the New York studio. Aaron and Fran working hard to try to figure out what's going on with Parker. We appreciate all the work all of them are doing, but we're here with you. One more segment to go on a Tuesday night. I'll try to get to all the boys here one more time. Benny Mack, I'll come to you in West Palm Beach. What else do you want to hit tonight in news?

[Vinny Mac]

I mean, I can't let the night finish without talking about corruption. Talking about corruption in Minnesota, talking about corruption in California. You know, we seem to see corruption in general where there's one party rule. California is perfect example. One party rule. There's really no opposition. There's no checks and balances. I mean, that's what happened in Minnesota, too. And I don't know if you guys caught this HHS ruling. The Biden administration put in a stipulation with these childcare centers that they didn't have to verify they had any kids attending. And they sent. I wanna look at the number here. $19 billion out without any verification that they have any kids there. This was a.

[Damon]

Is that necessary?

[Vinny Mac]

This is a rule that the Biden. Is it necessary? Yeah. I mean, come on, give me a break.

[Rick Delgado]

Ben, aren't these leering centers?

[Vinny Mac]

What's that?

[Rick Delgado]

Aren't they leering centers?

[Vinny Mac]

I believe so, yes. So we rescinded that today. Trump administration rescinded that. And they're like, that's ridiculous. So, you know, to have a childcare center, you've gotta prove you have one big thing, attendance, actual children going there. And I saw a comment from President Trump today because with what's going on in Minnesota is so staggering, so deep, so slimy, so disgusting and so indicative of the left, frankly. He's pointing his sights in California. He's saying, look, if you see what's going on in Minnesota, that's, you know, so bad. Take one look at California. They went from a surplus to a huge deficit. And, you know, the train and all that other stuff are one thing, but there's corruption everywhere because there's no checks and balances. And he's got the Justice Department looking into all those things now. And it's the way, I think the pathway for us to win the midterms and the pathway for us to continue to fix the country and win elections is like this guy out here is exposing this level of corruption. So when these local folks run for office again, we continually point to this stuff which citizens see. And you have to be outraged because that money could be going to help homeless, it could be going to help a lot of programs that are in place. And it's not. They just want to raise your taxes to take care of it. So that's on my mind. Corruption in general. And, and these are the first two shoes to drop Minnesota big. And I think the next one is going to be California.

[Damon]

I mean, would anybody be surprised if we find out that Minnesota, even as bad as it is, is, is not nearly as big as some of what else we're going to find around the country? It wouldn't surprise me at all. Nine billion, I mean, that could be peanuts. You could find places that are double, triple that, probably. I mean, I don't know, maybe not that much. But I mean, I bet you we'd find more in other places than what we found there.

[Vinny Mac]

California could eclipse that number. I mean, it's a huge state. The numbers are bigger, a lot bigger. And I think what you just said was where I'm going. I think we're going to see ourselves a much bigger problem than Minnesota. In California.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah.

[Damon]

All right, ten minutes till the hour. We got about six minutes left. Delgado, what else have you got in headlines?

[Rick Delgado]

Well, since Vin has kicked off the Fraud Around America tour, let's continue it, shall we? Let's go to the great state of Massachusetts, filled with Mass holes. Two of them are men who have been arrested and charged in an alleged scheme to defraud the country, obtaining millions of dollars of Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program benefits. You know that better. As snap. Through small retail stores they operated in Boston defendants. Monthly SNAP redemptions allegedly range between 100,000 to 500,000. We're talking that's per month outpacing those of full service supermarkets. Here is the state prosecutor in Boston outlining, outlining what these guys were up to. This is cut number nine. Check this out.

[Boston State Prosecutor]

As alleged in the charging documents, these men abused one of the government's Most critical safety net programs for their own financial gain. This is attack. This is taxpayer money meant to keep people from going hungry. These defendants decided to take it for themselves. These defendants exchanged SNAP benefits for cash which they pocketed. Bonner, a naturalized US citizen from Haiti, owned the Jasuela Variety store. Elise May, a lawful permanent resident, also from Haiti, owned the Saul Mache Mixe store. These two businesses were co located with within a single storefront in Boston. To be certain, these were not supermarkets, they were not full service groceries. It would be a huge stretch to even call them convenience stores. In fact, the only thing convenient about these stores was how easy it was to commit SNAP benefit fraud.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, we're talking about places that were, I think one place was 150 square feet and the other place was 500 square feet and they were taking in 100 to 500,000amonth compared to a full size supermarket, that would average around $80,000 per month in SNAP benefits. So there you have it with that. And speaking of fraud there, Vin, I don't want to leave out our buddy Tim Walsh here. He is complaining yet again today in a in his press conference about, you know, what's been going down and if he's going to resign. Check this out. This is cut 10 state.

[Audio Clip Speaker]

There's full accountability for everybody because I, I buck stops with me. I'm accountable for this. And because of that accountability, I'm not running for office again. But I have a year to continue to improve on a record that I think will stand up against anybody's. A record that has made Minnesota better, a record that makes people want to come here, and a record that has respected not only the dignity people, but the idea of rule of law.

[Vinny Mac]

You dropped a bomb on me.

[Rick Delgado]

I love it.

[Damon]

Enough of that.

[Rick Delgado]

Guy can't make it up. There you go, David.

[Damon]

All right, very good, slick. Take us home. What else is in sports you want to cover tonight?

[Slick Rick]

All right, quick scoreboard update, Big D. How about the Islanders out on Long island lead the Devils 6 Nothing midway through the third period. Anthony Duclair, left winger with a hat trick tonight at the U. Bailey Score Arena. But that applies to the Devils Tonight in the NBA, the Cavs 120, 116 over the paces. Wizards 120, 112 over the Magic little Tiger Woods. News here, Big D. Tiger woods is on the brink of an unimaginable career low in 2026. A harsh reality may be coming for the golf world. This is Mark Harris of Outkick. Tiger woods recently turned 50 we talked about on the show last week and has not played a competitive round of golf since the Open in July of 2024. With his absence from the sport, his official World Golf ranking has hit an all time low. But believe it or not, his ranking could get even worse. Currently, woods is ranked 2,590th in the world, having closed out his 2024 season ranked 879. Those numbers are hard to comprehend when Talking about a 15 time major champion who is considered by many of the best to ever do it. Having a number next to your name is better than not having one, which could be the reality for the big cat in 2026. Obviously we know the story about rupturing his Achilles early last year and so on and so forth, but yeah, Tiger could be sitting on the bottom, Big D. But obviously we know he's probably not going to be able to make any type of a comeback. And I want to see you have enough time to take this out. We can get this real quick. Steve Kerr gets ejected with Snoop Dogg on the call for the warriors game. Get him out of there. This is Ryan Morick of Fox News. Just to set this up real quick, Golden State's coach Steve Kerr was ejected in the fourth quarter against the LA Clippers on Monday night. I don't have the cut and I'm a big D. Do we have that cut with Snoop Dogg on the call as Kerr gets thrown out?

[Damon]

I have no idea if we do or not. Do you know.

[Rick Delgado]

Get.

[Damon]

Get him out of there. Get him out of there. Back him up. Back him up. GP Back him up. Steve ready to fire on him. He's already gone. Steve. Banging Inglewood right now.

[Vinny Mac]

Inglewood.

[Damon]

Get him. Yeah. Snoop should. Snoop should call all NBA games. He should have a contract to call every night. He should be on a game with somebody that's. That's appointment television right there. So. All right, slickster. All right. Take us out. Col. Thanks to everybody who helped out tonight. Aaron, Fran, Colin, everybody in West Palm Beach, Vinnie Mac and West Palm boys here in New York most of all, thank you. Live from Studio 6B. Audience.
