  “It just seemed contrived to me, frankly. Here’s a CYA exchange of text messages…” (15:03)

---

6. Political Fallout: Cancel Culture vs. Consequences for Celebrating Kirk’s Death

• The panel debates whether firing people who've made celebratory or inflammatory comments about Kirk’s assassination equates to cancel culture.
  • Vinnie Mac:
    “This is not cancel culture. It's just being a decent human being... This is not like Kevin Hart getting canceled for an old joke. This is apples and oranges.”
    (63:16)
• Sports sidebar: US women's BMX team distances itself from a trans athlete for making gloating comments about Kirk’s killing.
  (87:05–89:28)

7. Other Major Headlines & Political Hot Buttons

• Pam Bondi under fire for suggesting the DOJ will target “hate speech”:
  • Criticized by both Hume and the hosts, who reiterate that “hate speech is protected speech in America.”
  • Charlie Kirk, pre-assassination quote (cited by Delgado):
    “Hate speech does not exist legally in America. There’s ugly speech, gross speech, evil speech. All of it is protected by the First Amendment. Keep America free.” (51:29)
• Democrat Governor Pritzker fact-checked for denying he ever called Republicans “Nazis.” The show plays audio disproving his denials.
  (53:56–54:33)

Tone & Takeaways

The episode is charged, partisan, sarcastic, and fast-paced, with hosts frequently lampooning politicians, bureaucrats, and the mainstream press. The assassination of Charlie Kirk is framed as a pivotal cultural and political moment, prompting both mourning, anger, and discussion about threats to free speech and political violence. The team is especially critical of any attempts by the press to “humanize” the perpetrator or to draw moral equivalence.

Listen for vigorous debate and a refusal to let official narratives go unchallenged, whether from law enforcement, politicians, or the news media. The balance of irreverent banter and deeply felt outrage makes this episode an engaging listen for those interested in conservative commentary on America’s news cycle.

[Vinnie Mac]

This is an iHeart podcast.

[Big D]

All right. Live from Studio 6P. Eight o' clock on a Tuesday night, September 16th, real America's voice. Glad you're in, everybody. We always appreciate you giving us a few hours of your weekdays 8 to 10. Right here. Slick Rick sitting right there is gonna do some sports. Slickster, how are you? I'm doing good, Big D. How was your day?

[Slick Rick]

Fantastic.

[Big D]

Excellent. Good to hear. Rick Delgado's gonna have some headlines. Mr. Delgado, how are you?

[Rick Delgado]

I am well.

[Big D]

How was your day?

[Rick Delgado]

My day was busy.

[Big D]

Why, what'd you do?

[Rick Delgado]

I've not had a nap, so if I come off a little spicy, you'll know why I was run. I had to run mom around. Just a couple of appointments.

[Big D]

How she feeling?

[Rick Delgado]

She's doing good. Good.

[Big D]

So you actually nailed down what she actually had done yet? You have no idea. Still?

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah. She had cataract. Right. The cataract thing taken out.

[Slick Rick]

He's an eyewitness.

[Rick Delgado]

And then a. I asked you first, you said, no.

[Big D]

No.

[Rick Delgado]

I said yes.

[Slick Rick]

He said, toyota.

[Vinnie Mac]

No cataract, text message.

[Rick Delgado]

But then I said there was another thing that they did where she has to lay flat. You said, oh, I know what that is. That's not the only thing that you have to lay flat for.

[Big D]

Okay. But they do a little bubble.

[Rick Delgado]

I guess it's for the lens or something or releasing something else. They did something else.

[Slick Rick]

You should have been a doctor.

[Rick Delgado]

I shouldn't have been a doctor.

[Big D]

Can she see clearly now that you're nuts?

[Rick Delgado]

No.

[Big D]

Okay.

[Rick Delgado]

But it's starting to come back. As a matter of fact, as I'm running her around, I already showed Erin this picture. Unfortunately, I didn't think of sending it in. This was her drive. I had to drive her around because.

[Big D]

That'S a badass look right there.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, she's ready to cut you in that picture.

[Vinnie Mac]

That could be Elvis still alive.

[Slick Rick]

I love it.

[Big D]

Yeah, she's ready.

[Rick Delgado]

She's ready to kill some.

[Big D]

All right, good. So love on the mom. Hope she's continues to do well.

[Rick Delgado]

Probably me for taking that picture. Yeah, Everything else is fine.

[Big D]

Okay, good. Vinnie Mac is here. Vinnie Mac, nice to see you in the studio. How are you?

[Vinnie Mac]

Yeah, it's good to be here. Love it. You know, so. Always good to be back home.

[Big D]

How was your day? Any decompression going on?

[Vinnie Mac]

Yeah, I did a full hour, hour and a half of decompression, then another hour of yoga, and then I just sat there with a red light, you know, therapy for a little while.

[Big D]

You do red light therapy?

[Vinnie Mac]

Actually, I do.

[Rick Delgado]

Great.

[Big D]

A lot of people talk. That's. I'm sure surprised. Delgado's not into that crap.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, I would be, but I don't know, it seems there with that mask. Do you sit there with the mask?

[Vinnie Mac]

Well, I don't put it on my face.

[Rick Delgado]

Where do you put it on? I don't think that's gonna help there. I'm telling you.

[Vinnie Mac]

Let me tell you. I'm seeing results over there, baby.

[Big D]

I mean, where are we going here?

[Vinnie Mac]

Yeah. It's good for cellular rejuvenation. Okay, so that's number one. But it helps oxy oxygenate. Yeah. It oxygenates your cells.

[Big D]

Yep.

[Vinnie Mac]

And as a matter. You have problems sleeping, by the way, this. This therapy apparently helps that too. I don't have a problem sleeping.

[Rick Delgado]

So where do you put. Do you put it on your face? On your head?

[Vinnie Mac]

I was trying to recover from the hernia surgery or something.

[Big D]

No.

[Vinnie Mac]

What's that?

[Big D]

Isn't it a mat you lay on or. No, you could.

[Vinnie Mac]

There are somewhere you can lay in a mat and it's like going in a tanny salon. It just, you know, does your whole body.

[Big D]

Okay.

[Vinnie Mac]

And then there's somewhere you could do it in parts of your body. So I would use it and, you know, trying to heal. And it works great. Yeah.

[Big D]

Okay.

[Vinnie Mac]

I mean, it does do something.

[Big D]

Now, do you do other stuff like methylene blue and all this other crap too, Vin?

[Vinnie Mac]

Oh, yeah, yeah. You name it. I'm trying it.

[Big D]

Okay, very good.

[Vinnie Mac]

I do the methylene blue. I try to tell dog Otto not to. His tongue is blue. His tongue is. But go show the show.

[Big D]

You look great, Finn. Especially after having surgery. You're very. You're very handsome. Former model.

[Vinnie Mac]

Thank you. Thank you very much.

[Big D]

As you know, as I've told you many times, the biggest thing I'm happy about is that you stopped putting shoe polish in your hair.

[Vinnie Mac]

Yeah, yeah.

[Big D]

And you just let it roll because you look good in gray. As I think I will too, when I finally get all full.

[Vinnie Mac]

You're gonna look good. A little silver fo. Once that starts happening, you know.

[Big D]

Yes, but you're a. You're a good looking guy, but you're already for 80.

[Vinnie Mac]

It's a hard transition to make, you know, when you're getting older and you go in gray. It's a hard transition. I accept it now.

[Big D]

Okay. Now. Now's the key word.

[Vinnie Mac]

Because I did before. Yes.

[Big D]

Thank you so very good. Vid with his midlife crisis, driving his convertible Corvette.

[Vinnie Mac]

I'm glad you covered polishing Us there.

[Philip Patrick]

What do you think?

[Big D]

How you doing?

[Rick Delgado]

What do you think you are? Harry.

[Big D]

I just spoke to Harry for like an hour. Oh, yeah, Harry on the highway. Come on, Harry.

[Vinnie Mac]

Harry's out there.

[Slick Rick]

Oh, yeah.

[Vinnie Mac]

No shoe polish for Harry, though.

[Big D]

No, no, not at all.

[Vinnie Mac]

It's a real thing.

[Slick Rick]

He lets people hang out.

[Big D]

Oh, God. All right, four minutes past the hour. So there was a lot of news today, a lot of news today, a lot of news. Cash Patel was in front of the.

[Vinnie Mac]

Oh, man.

[Big D]

With some congressional hearing with a bunch of losers up there. And say what you will about cash, I know a lot of people are not happy with cash over a lot of things. And you know, there's all these reports and now you're seeing the Trump administration officials want them gone and they want bonding. I mean, Bondi's two comments in the last 24 hours are so mind bendingly stupid it makes your hair hurt. Now, I think she's tried to qualify a couple of them and kind of, I don't know, walk it back. But I mean, just what did I tell you?

[Rick Delgado]

She's terrible on a microphone. Keep her away from it.

[Vinnie Mac]

Keep her off tv.

[Rick Delgado]

Better write it out and put it.

[Big D]

Out like her brain's not working as fast as her mouth wants to go. And she says things without really having a great handle on the subject matter.

[Rick Delgado]

Right.

[Big D]

Because that's the only way to explain those two sound bites that we got in the last 24 hours from her. Just what. But getting back to Cash, I'll tell you, that's a great. Cash is not taking any nonsense from these empty suits that he knows are empty suits. And he's just not going to let him push him around these frauds like Schiff and, and little Dick Durbin and Cory Booker, that drama queen, my God, give that guy an Oscar. He's the biggest drama queen we've ever seen. And Dick Blumenthal, bunch of dicks up there not taking any nonsense from any of them. No Dick Blumenthal, Dick Durbin. So he, he's great in these hearings. He pushes back, rightly so, on their crap. And that's all it is. They offer nothing to get any legitimate. You know, who actually was, was, I'll give some credit here, was at least somewhat close to at least a conversation that tried to elicit some reasonable information. Was Amy Klobuchar today, no harsh attacks, no nothing like went over some things like tried to find common ground. They had, they had at least a humane conversation where she wasn't just out to try to prove to her left wing friends in media that she can attack them. At least what I heard. It was the one I heard. I was like, okay, this is at least, at least a reasonable conversation. But all. Most of the other ones are just.

[Rick Delgado]

It wasn't even really questions. It was all your grandstanding and statements and just trying to get a sound bite because, you know, that's what they're out. That's what they're after. They're trying to get a sound bite. That's all they want. They don't really care about truth. They don't care about questions. They don't really care about anything but themselves and how, how this might make them look better. Yeah, that's pretty much it. Because they're all, they're all kind of grifters, right? We kind of, we kind of established.

[Vinnie Mac]

It looks like that doesn't swarmy.

[Rick Delgado]

You know, if you ever shook one of their hands, you'd have to probably.

[Vinnie Mac]

Wipe it off like check your pocket, right?

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah.

[Big D]

Yeah. That's why when, when cash. I mean, you know, some would say, oh, that's not proper decorum as a guest at the thing when, when talking to Adam Schiff. There's no decorum to that slime ball. Hit him as hard as you can. Call him out and hit him as hard as you can. He's a slime ball. Yeah, we know his deal. He's a lion thieving, empty suit, slimy. He's like, what? You go in the woods and you pick up the wood that's been there, it's wet. You pick it up underneath and there's all that. God, that's him. What were you going to say?

[Rick Delgado]

Man, I have been like, I don't like going in the woods. I need to decompress.

[Vinnie Mac]

But I noticed a shift.

[Big D]

And by the way, Schiff shouldn't even be on a committee. Why is he on any committee? He's a liar, a proven liar. He shouldn't even be on there.

[Vinnie Mac]

Holy shift. That's what I say. I notice a shift, though. Not a shift. A shift since Charlie Kirk was assassinated. And I noticed that the speaking out now is way stronger by the right and cash today. He let him have it. It's been part of his personality. But I've noticed that across the board now. It's almost like folks are saying, enough. We've had it now. You pushed us to the edge. We're not taking this crap anymore. And they had a bunch of senators saying stuff. He just went right after him hard. JD Vance has as well. Others have But I have noticed just a shift in just mood, karma, temperature, whatever you want to call it, since Charlie Kirk was assassinated. Anyone who says Charlie Kirk was killed, by the way, he wasn't killed, he was assassinated. Okay. The rhetoric around that is a whole nother thing. But as far as Cash goes, he's leading what I think is a whole new way of speaking and dealing with these folks, which is just not taking any of their nonsense whatsoever. Zero. His confirmation hearings, he was a little more trying to answer questions or trying to take the shots a little bit. And you can just see the gloves are off now, 100% off. And I've noticed. I noticed a change and I think we'll be talking about that change over the next months and years even.

[Big D]

Yeah, nine minutes past the hour. So obviously after Cash, then we had the Utah county prosecutor, I believe is his title, give a press conference out there, which I actually livestreamed, we live streamed on our socials, which was extremely informative in that he really released a lot of never before heard supposed text messages. And I say suppose that not because I don't believe that they're text messages or discord group chat or whatever this is. I think these are supposed to be text messages though. But there's been a lot of. And then. So after then. So they did that press conference, they took a couple questions. Interesting. When they started talking about the shot, the gunshot, someone asked about a ballistics question and the guy jumped in immediately and cut off the press conference, said, ah, we're gonna have to end it there. Which.

[Rick Delgado]

Wow. Okay.

[Big D]

Kind of had my little spidey senses going because that's the one big part of this, as those of you who've been watching me stream know that I have big questions about. But having. Not that. Not going to get into that now here, but. So they stopped it right then. So then we had his first virtual court appearance. And I pulled this. I had Aaron pull this. Because if we're going to hear the charges read, which there's seven of them, I wanted to hear the judge's version, not the prosecutor in Utah's version. So we'll get to that in a second. But let's just get back to what the Utah press conference broke, which was these text messages between the suspect and his transitioning lover. Have you seen him?

[Slick Rick]

I just read it. Oh, yeah, I just read it.

[Big D]

You read. What did you read?

[Slick Rick]

I read the entire.

[Big D]

Okay, still got it. Did you read the entire exchange?

[Rick Delgado]

Read. Yeah.

[Big D]

Okay. Vin, did you read the entire.

[Vinnie Mac]

I read the entire exchange.

[Big D]

Okay.

[Vinnie Mac]

Yep.

[Big D]

So there's a lot of chatter about people reading it. What did you think when you read it, slick? Any. Any. Any.

[Slick Rick]

I don't know what the time stamp on it was. Almost just.

[Big D]

What about. What about the conversation?

[Slick Rick]

Yeah.

[Big D]

Reasonable to you?

[Slick Rick]

Yeah, it seemed reasonable to me. I mean, again, I don't know if it was a setup, if they were trying to hide something, but it seemed like the. The fella didn't know all that much about it. The. The boyfriend or girlfriend or whatever. Their boyfriend.

[Vinnie Mac]

Interesting.

[Slick Rick]

I don't know.

[Big D]

That's a nice choice of words there. It didn't seem like you knew much about it that might be purposeful.

[Slick Rick]

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking.

[Big D]

Delgado, what'd you think?

[Rick Delgado]

That's the part that jumped out at me. If they're this close, how does this person not know about it?

[Vinnie Mac]

Right.

[Rick Delgado]

How do they not pick up certain clues?

[Slick Rick]

Yeah, that was my takeaway.

[Rick Delgado]

How are they now talking about it? And it does.

[Big D]

It reads like a cover your ass kind of right for one half of the parties involved here. Yeah, but.

[Vinnie Mac]

And.

[Big D]

And people are saying, you know, they put it into grok and they say to Grok. Is this. You know, does this sound like a legitimate conversation? And Grock keeps saying, no, it sounds like a. A fan. You know, sounds like a croc movie scri. Made up.

[Vinnie Mac]

That's where I'm on that.

[Big D]

Where did you say?

[Vinnie Mac]

That's where I'm coming from. I think it's a total farce. I think it was scripted, and I don't believe it. I don't believe that conversation.

[Slick Rick]

Me neither.

[Vinnie Mac]

I don't believe that was an organic conversation.

[Rick Delgado]

Me either.

[Big D]

Okay, let's get back to that word, organic when we get back to the break.

[Rick Delgado]

Thank you.

[Big D]

And I'll tell you, I was there about an hour ago. There's one thing in there, though, that makes me think. I'll tell you what it is when we get back.

[Rick Delgado]

Sam.

[Slick Rick]

You have nothing better.

[Big D]

All right. 17 past. Why do I sing the end? I don't know. 17 past the hour. Live from Studio 6, be slick Terry's doing sports.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah.

[Big D]

Delgado's gonna do some headline news. Vinnie, Max, got some thoughts. Aaron and Fran holding it down as always. 17 past on a Tuesday night. Real America's Voice. So we're talking about the text message thread, which is all everybody's talking about tonight on social media, that was released today at the press conference. And it's supposedly an exchange after the shooting between the suspect in custody and his gay lover, I guess is the best way to put it. Transitioning lover, whatever you want to say.

[Rick Delgado]

No. Gay.

[Big D]

So, Vin, I'll start with you. You said you did not think it was an organic. What? You said organic exchange. Explain.

[Vinnie Mac]

When I first heard it, when the district attorney was going through it, I was like, oh, boy. Wow. You know, I sort of believed it. Then I read it, and it just seemed contrived to me, frankly.

[Big D]

Yeah.

[Vinnie Mac]

So that's really it. I have really no factual basis, and there wasn't a red flag contrived because.

[Big D]

Who the hell talks like that?

[Vinnie Mac]

Exactly. I felt like here's a CYA exchange of text messages, because at least what I started thinking about was they totally talked about this. This person, in fact, probably encouraged it. 100 and. And, you know, the rest is history.

[Big D]

The only difference between the two is one finger pulled the trigger and the other didn't. Other than that, they're as culpable, seemingly. And I was. I'm. I think I'm still almost all the way there with you too. But this is the one thing from the. From the report and then from the exchanges that catches my attention. How do you explain this? So this is from the. This is from the prosecutor's office. Today they read this. Robinson's father reported that when his wife showed him the surveillance image of the suspected shooter in the news, he agreed that it looked like their son. He also believed that the rifle that police suspected the shooter used matched the rifle that was given to his son as a gift. As a result, Robinson's father contacted his son and asked him to send a photo of the rifle. Robertson did not respond. However, Robinson's father spoke on the phone with Robinson. Robinson implied that he planned to take his own life. Robinson's parents were able to convince him to meet at their home. And when you go to the exchange, delete this exchange. My dad wants photos of the rifle. So how do you explain that if it's fake.

[Vinnie Mac]

There might be some things there that are true, that are real?

[Big D]

He says, grandpa wants to know who has it. The feds released the photo of the rifle, and it's very unique. He's calling me right now, not answering. I mean, so how do you. How do you explain that, if you know what I'm saying? That's the one thing that caught my attention. Delgado.

[Rick Delgado]

No, that. That kind of caught my attention as well.

[Big D]

How would he know his dad wants a picture of it?

[Rick Delgado]

Well, didn't he just say his dad text me, wants a picture of the rifle? Send me a picture of the rifle?

[Big D]

Right. But I'm saying he wouldn't. He obviously wouldn't know that until the dad actually did it, and then he would text it to him. You know what I'm saying? Like, you can. You can't know to text that unless you know that the dad's already asked you for it. That's what I'm saying. Yeah.

[Rick Delgado]

Right.

[Vinnie Mac]

Are you saying the dad didn't ask for it by the time that text went out?

[Big D]

No, I'm saying the text went out after the dad asked for it. That's the only reason he knew. That's why when they find these.

[Vinnie Mac]

Right.

[Big D]

And it says, my dad wants photos of the rifle. He says, grandpa wants to know who. Who and what has it. The feds released a photo. It's very unique. He's calling me right now. Then you go back to the prosecutor, and they say Robinson's father reported when the wife showed him. He also believed, as a result, Robinson's father contacted his son and asked him to send a photo of the rifle. Robinson did not respond. I mean, I don't know how you get around that and still say that the whole conversation is staged, made up.

[Vinnie Mac]

That's a fair point. I mean, when I heard them say that, I bought it initially, but as I've read the back and forth, it just sounded contrived to me after that. So, I mean, that's it. It's a. I have no basis. It's just my own personal gut feeling of what I heard or what I read. So it very well may be true, but I felt uncomfortable about it.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah. You know what? If I'm getting that text saying. Saying, this person just did that. I'm not texting you back. I'm calling you back. I'm not sitting there. Oh, well, what do you mean? What. Huh?

[Vinnie Mac]

That's a good point.

[Rick Delgado]

It seems just a little too. I don't know, detached. I'm sorry, but if it's. If this is somebody that I'm involved with, if. If my other half text me, I just did something horrible, call, blah, blah, blah.

[Slick Rick]

Yeah, I'm on the phone.

[Rick Delgado]

I'm on the phone. There's. There's no. Yeah, there's no text back and forth. There's no back and forth going, what do you mean?

[Slick Rick]

Let me get a salutation. Hello there.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, let me. Let me comma. Let me put 17 question marks.

[Slick Rick]

Right?

[Rick Delgado]

No, there's none of that there. There's immediate response. This. You know what? Yeah.

[Slick Rick]

You wouldn't want to put this stuff in writing anyway. You got to be an Idiot to do that.

[Big D]

Well, that's the other thing that's unconscionable. That screams from this exchange. If you're to take the side that this exchange, for the most part, is accurate, it screams arrogance like we've maybe never seen before. And maybe a little. A little naive or just so cold blooded to say. I. I think. What did he say? Something like, I think I've. If I. Once I retrieve the rifle, I think I've left no evidence.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, right.

[Big D]

Imagine thinking that. And imagine thinking that you could text all of this in this day and age, digital age, and think that this is. That you're covering your tracks or that somehow you're safe enough to say these things. But the idea that all I have to do is go back and retrieve the rifle and I've left no evidence just shows you either that this kid was arrogant beyond anything anyone could comprehend or. Or. Because that doesn't sound like someone who's a perfect student who aced their SATs and could have gone to any college of his choice from a pretty stable family, it seems like.

[Slick Rick]

Well, Carlton Robinson in the YouTube chat says, Guys, you're not 22. So what does that say?

[Rick Delgado]

Good point. But again, even at 22, my son's.

[Big D]

18, and I can tell you he doesn't text like that. None of his friends who are 18, 19, 20 text like that. I don't know any young who texts like this. Just to go back to the other side for a second.

[Rick Delgado]

Right. And another part here too. This whole. This whole thing about engraving bullets. Remember how I was engraving bullets?

[Big D]

I had hoped to keep this a secret till I died. Of old age.

[Rick Delgado]

Who says this?

[Vinnie Mac]

Yeah.

[Slick Rick]

Of old age. I know at 22 who's thinking of old age. Right?

[Rick Delgado]

And. And if. And if he's reminding his quote unquote, gay dude lover there that he was engraving bullets, wouldn't gay dude lover go, what the hell you doing engraving bullets? What's going on here, bro?

[Vinnie Mac]

Yeah, right? Yeah.

[Rick Delgado]

Or maybe he'd say, what's going on here, bro? I don't know.

[Slick Rick]

If you're reading this, you're gay, right? That was one of the bullets.

[Big D]

Yeah. I think that was also the name of the Discord thread. Don't read this if you're gay. I think that was the title of it, right?

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah. A lot of this is just.

[Big D]

Well, you're seeing all kinds of people saying, I showed this to my 21, 22 year old, and they said, mom, this is how you text, not me and my friends.

[Slick Rick]

There you go.

[Vinnie Mac]

And so that's how I felt when I read it.

[Slick Rick]

I think you said contrived. I think that was the word. Contrived. Yeah, I agree with that. I tend to agree with that.

[Vinnie Mac]

Either way, you know, the fact that they spoke about it and brought it out the way they did, they.

[Rick Delgado]

They.

[Vinnie Mac]

You know, the FBI and police, they. Their radar has to be up as well. They're probably trying to figure out how can we use this person and let's see if they were involved and try to smoke them out a little bit. That's. You know, these are tactics that could be part of. By sharing that whole exchange. He didn't have to share that exchange. No, I mean, it was, frankly, kind of unnecessary. But he does admit to the crime in the exchange.

[Rick Delgado]

Mitsu, the crime. But why leave the gun behind?

[Vinnie Mac]

Why what?

[Rick Delgado]

I leave the gun behind? You had it broken down in your bag and you put it back together.

[Vinnie Mac]

It was in his pant leg. Like, why did he get a tree?

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, it's like you're.

[Big D]

Well, we don't know if it's broken down. Remember, we don't know if it's broken down.

[Rick Delgado]

They're trying to tell us from that video.

[Big D]

It makes no sense to break it down.

[Rick Delgado]

He jumped down with it in his hand. Yeah, sorry, but I've jumped out of a lot of trees. Your hands got to be open because you got to brace to hit that ground and tuck and roll just in case. Well, that's why I'm jumping out of trees.

[Slick Rick]

Yeah, you got me on that one.

[Big D]

All right, more. And we'll do sports and news when we get back. Live from Studio 6B right after this.

[Rick Delgado]

Sam.

[Big D]

All right, 30 minutes past the hour. Live from Studio 6B, let's do some sports with Slick, and then we'll get to the judge today and reading of the charges. Sports is brought to you by Mike Lindell.

They sponsor sports. Slick's got it. What's going on, Slick? All right.

[Slick Rick]

Well, Monday Night Football wrap up. Good games. Buccaneers. Well, one good game, I should say. The Buccaneers and Texans had a good game, 20 to 19. Buccaneers on top. Baker Mayfield with a victorious drive at the end to cap that off. And then the Charges defeated the Raiders pretty handily, 29. I think Geno Smith may have had one of the worst NFL performances I ever seen. His fantasy football rating came in at about an 8. Most quarterbacks, you should come in between 18 to 30. So it's just incredible how bad that game was. And I'm glad to see that because that actually helped me win my fantasy football that week. So I want to report on that. Major League Baseball. Let's get to that while we're winding down. We got about a dozen games left and wild card. There's five spots open in the AL legitimately and four in the nl. So Yankees look pretty good, Rick. They're in the top spot of those five there, but we got the Cubs right now leading the Pirates 4 1, middle of the sixth. Guardians 32 over the Tigers. End of six. Braves and Nationals, no score in a rain delay right now in D.C. look like some rain coming our way, I guess. Athletics right now. Trailer. Red Sox 1 nothing, top of the sixth. Mets, who are very much in the wild card race in the NL, lead the Padres 8 to 2 in Citi Field. Top of the fifth there. Bottom of the third. The Blue Jays blanking the Rays for nothing. Brewers, who. Well, they've already clinched the NL Central. They've done a great job. They've had a great season. In fact, they lead the Angels 2 0, top of the third. They may actually be the NL favorite there to make it to the World Series in my book. Orioles and White Sox tied at 2. Top of the third. Also top third. The Yankees up 7 to 1 in Minnesota. They are right there. That's looking good there. And that is in the top of the third. Yes. Mariners over the Royals, seven nothing. Middle of the third, all top third. The Cardinals blanking the Reds one nothing. Reds are also in the race, one and a half games behind the Mets there for that last spot. Astros 1 nothing over the Rangers, top of the second. Earlier today, the Braves defeated the Nationals 6 3. Marlins take on the Rockets, 840. First pitch, 940. Giants in the races. Well, taking on the dimebags in the race as well. Phillies and Dodgers, that'll be the nightcap. That's a 1010 first pitch and, well, some. Some tough news there, but, well, Joe Burrows foundation severs ties with Ohio judge over comments celebrating Charlie Kirk's killing. This is Paulina Dodage of Fox News. The Joe Burrow foundation has severed ties with Hamilton County Municipal Judge Ted Berry after the Ohio judge allegedly made celebratory comments on social media about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kerber. Right. Another fool here. The foundation, founded by Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, released a statement Friday announcing that it had terminated a member of its advisory board. The Joe Burrow foundation was founded on the belief that everyone has the responsibility to do good. We have terminated an advisory board member that made inappropriate remarks in light of recent events and they are no longer associated with the foundation, the statement said. Their comments do not reflect our values or our mission. We are committed to accountability and respect for all. Barry was listed as a member of the advisory board previously on the foundation's website. The statement did not name Barry or directly reference Kirk's killing. Fox News Digital reached out to the organization for a statement to clarify whether Barry was the member terminated. Ohio State Representative Adam Matthews shared the foundation's statement on social media and confirmed to Fox News Digital Tuesday that Berry was the advisory board member terminated by the foundation. The Republican lawmaker previously released a statement calling for the judge's resignation after social media comments that Matthews said he celebrated Kirk's killing with vitriolic, racially charged and political language. A judge must be a pillar of fairness and impartiality in our community, matthews said. So to see a sitting judge post comments like rest and hatred and division, ask how he feels about a gun and violence control in hell now, and then celebrate the race of the killer by stating so a white guy killed him. Color, it's karma is shocking and I can't believe a judge would in his right mind put this on his social media. But we've seen it from teachers, we've seen it from, you know, people in the community and throughout the country. Well, they're getting their just desserts. They're getting terminated, which is good to see. So I'll rest it there, Big D. I'll Talk about Sean McVay tearing his plantar fasciitis over the weekend as well at the Rams game. We'll get to that in the next segment.

[Big D]

All right, so look very good. 34 past the hour. Sports is brought to you by Mike Lindell. Use code LFSXP at checkout. So here's the judge today in the first appearance that they had and their next appearance is scheduled for September 29th and that will be a virtual appearance as well. But here's the judge today reading off the seven counts that this subhuman is going to be charged with and that they will go out go for the death penalty. Here's the judge. Roll it, Aaron.

[Judge]

Mr. Robinson for count one, aggravated murder, a capital felony in violation of Utah code annotated 765 202. In that on September 10, 2025 in Utah county, the defendant, Tyler James Robinson intentionally or knowingly caused the death of Charlie Kirk under the following circumstances. The defendant knowingly created a great risk of death to another individual other than Charlie Kirk and the defendant. Notice. Conviction of this offense may carry the death penalty or pursuant to Utah code 76.3.207.7, a mandatory term of imprisonment for life without parole or an indeterminate term of not less than 25 years that may be for life. Victim Targeting Enhancement in violation of Utah code annotated 76. 3.203.14 sub 2 Tyler James Robinson intentionally selected Charlie Kirk because of Tyler James Robinson's belief or perception regarding Charlie Kirk's political expression. Notice if the trier of fact finds beyond a reasonable doubt that the victim targeting enhancement applies, the sentencing judge or the Board of Pardons and Parole shall consider the defendant's selection of the victim as an aggregating factor. Violent offense committed in the presence of a child Aggravating factor the sentencing judge or the Board of Pardons and Parole shall consider as an aggravating factor in their deliberations that the defendant committed a violent criminal offense in the presence of a child. Count two Felony discharge of a firearm causing serious bodily injury, a first degree felony in violation of Utah Code Annotated 76 11, 210, sub 2 and 3C. In that on September 10, 2025 in Utah county, the defendant Tyler James Robinson discharged a firearm in the direction of Charlie Kirk, knowing or having reason to believe that Charlie Kirk may be endangered by the discharge of the firearm and that the act caused serious bodily injury to Charlie Kirk.

[Big D]

It's going to take a while to get through all stuff and I think we have a graphic on on what all seven charges are. There they are aggravated murder, felony discharge of a firearm causing serious bodily injury, obstruction of justice two counts witness tampering two counts come commission of a violent crime in the presence of a child. So seven counts death penalty all on the state level. We'll wait to see what the Feds do and whether there's any jurisdictional issues there with the Feds trying to do whatever they want to do. We'll see.

[Rick Delgado]

Plus it'll be nice to know that they will seek the death penalty like you mentioned, which is good to good to hear. And of course he's going to be held without bail. If you saw he was wearing a protective vest to make sure, I guess he's on suicide watch now. That's been announced as well, you know. So just a few more details coming out from I'M not even, I don't even say this guy's name. I don't, I don't, I, I don't think it's, I don't think he's worthy of recognition by name.

[Slick Rick]

I understand Charlie Kirk's murder, assassin. I understand the firing squad is still intact, too.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah. Utah death by firing squad.

[Slick Rick]

Yeah. Which is, you know, hate to say it, justifiable and apropos.

[Big D]

And you could get millions of people who'd like to be able to pull that trigger together if that was to happen. So.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah.

[Big D]

Including Megyn Kelly, who talked about it today on her show.

[Rick Delgado]

Oh, really?

[Big D]

So, all right, let's, let's do some headline news. There's other stuff going on. Like I said, it was a busy day. 38 past the hour. And Rick Delgado's got those. What's going on, Delgado, by the way, turning Point point. Charlie Kirk's memorial will be on Sunday. President Trump just back from England will be there. I believe that's Sunday out at where the Cardinals play.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah. At the stadium.

[Big D]

Right.

[Rick Delgado]

Yep. It's going to be happening on Sunday, like you mentioned. Where are the details in Glendale?

[Big D]

FightForCharlie.com is the website, obviously, Erica Kirk, remarks by her.

[Rick Delgado]

Yes. Yep.

[Big D]

President Donald Trump, Vice President J.D. vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of HHS, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Secretary of War Pete Hexith, Tulsi Gabbard, Donald Trump Jr. Tucker Carlson, Stephen Miller, Sergio Gore, Suzanne Scott. More names to be announced September 21st. Fightforcharlie.com if you want more information, fightforcharlie.com.

[Vinnie Mac]

You know what's interesting about that list, by the way? I don't know if you picked, did you pick this up? They talked about it today. RFK Jr he was really influential in getting Trump to put him as part of the Cabinet. I had no idea. I had never really heard of Charlie Kirk and, you know, RFK Jr. Having a relationship, let alone him having influence to Trump to getting RFK Jr. In it. But when you hear RFK talk, he says that.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, he says, he says I'm the reason he's the reason I'm here, which is amazing.

[Big D]

Caroline Levitt, too.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah.

[Big D]

Caroline Levitt gives all, almost all credit to Charlie Kirk for getting her because when she ran in 22, no one took her seriously as a candidate that she could even, you know, win a vote. And except for Charlie. And now, of course, she's the White House press secretary. And she talked about it, too. Did you see JD Vance host Charlie's show Yesterday, because he had both of them on to talk about it.

[Vinnie Mac]

I saw J.D. i thought he was amazing. We did a little sizzle clip I saw that Rav put out. That is amazing. Of all the day's events regarding, you know, that show JD And I tell you, I really, I really do love that guy. I'm a big, big, big fan of his. And the fact that he was so close to someone like Charlie Kirk was just so influential and so dynamic. I can't say enough good things about that guy. But J.D. was so impressive. And to sit there and do a podcast, you know, the Vice President, United States. Can you imagine Kamala Harris doing a podcast on anything?

[Big D]

No, you know, he was fantastic. We played it Yesterday, his closing 13 minutes. I mean, I think we look back and think that's a pretty consequential speech.

[Vinnie Mac]

Oh, yeah.

[Rick Delgado]

Oh, yeah.

[Big D]

I mean, it was definitely. It was really unbelievable.

[Vinnie Mac]

It's so heartfelt. And the thing that. I think I mentioned this to you guys right after it happened because I was in, in West Palmy at the office. People knew Kirk, Charlie, but they all had the professional relationship and the friendship relationship. And it shows so deeply. You know, you see politicians, they don't know each other that well. At least we don't think they do. You know, you don't think that they're friends, really friends? They're colleagues maybe. And, you know, you have folks in your office, maybe you're friends with, you know, at work, maybe you're not hanging out with them. After these people were really friends, there was real depth to the relationships, beyond politics and all that. That says a lot to me. Amazing.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah. Well, according to Turning Point usa, Charlie Kirk's memorial is gonna be held at State Farm Stadium in GL, Arizona on September 21st. Anyone interested in attending? It's called Building a Legacy, Remembering Charlie Kirk. Much must register on the Turning Point USA website, provide the information and all tickets or attendance will be determined on a first come, first serve basis. So if you're planning to go and be in that area, make your plans accordingly. I know I've already had friends asking me, is, is the network flying you guys out? Are we going to be covering this? I. I truly don't know. You know, I'm, I'm sure we'll be covering it.

[Vinnie Mac]

The network's going to cover it.

[Slick Rick]

Oh, I'm sure they'll send.

[Rick Delgado]

And I'm sure they'll have a top notch crew doing it. So. Yeah, the entire day.

[Big D]

All right. 42 past the hour, live from Studio 6B. We'll get the headlines, we'll get to Vin and we'll get to some video. Like I said, everybody was talking about this text exchange, even some of the mainstream media was. We'll see what their take is when we get back right after this.

[Rick Delgado]

Sam.

[Big D]

All right, 13th of the hour, live from Studio 6B. So as we said, busy, busy news day today, Cash this morning. And then we had the Utah county prosecutor give a press briefing and then we had the judge in the first court appearance. So we got a lot of information today and most of what people are talking about are these. Well, as Steve Bannon said, Steve Bannon said, I'm not buying any of this. How did this guy have time to write a sonic it interesting which is an interesting take. And, and a lot of people have questions about this exchange supposedly between two 22 year old gay lovers and the way they spoke. And it, it just looks like a pre planned meditated script to cover, cover the COVID the accomplice, which I don't think it's going to do a very good job of in the end, even if it is 100% every word of it True. But the media also talked about these exchanges today. So cut one, let's see what the media had and how they, how what they took out of this.

[Reporter]

Roll that AARON we have seen an alleged murder with such specific text messages about the alleged murder weapon, where it was hidden, how it was placed, what was on it, but also it was very touching in a way that I think many of us didn't expect. A very intimate portrait into this relationship between the suspect's roommate and the suspect himself, with him repeatedly calling his roommate who was transitioning, calling him my love and I want to protect you, my love. So it was this duality of someone who the attorney said not only jeopardized the life of Charlie Kirk and the crowd, but was doing it in front of children, which is one of the aggravating circumstances of this case. And on the other hand he was, you know, speaking so lovingly about his partner.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah.

[Slick Rick]

On the other hand, because you know.

[Rick Delgado]

That'S, that's notice, notice how quick they are to humanize the, the cold blooded murderer, the assassin, but how quick they are to use the words Nazi and Hitler to describe anybody they don't agree with. Yeah, that's, that's the media. This is the, this is the left wing media. No matter even after everything you've seen the last almost week now, they can't help themselves. You can't hate these people enough.

[Vinnie Mac]

This situation is so powerful, even those crazies in the media are losing credibility. I mean the majority of this country has common sense and realizes that this deranged animal assassinated one of the most important people in our country. And they trying to humanize various things here because they're, they're not connected, they're not attached, they have no sense of reality to what's really happened here. And I think they're losing credibility by the minute. Like this is the strongest I've seen them been bashed by more people than not just on the right, on the left too.

[Big D]

Well, I'm sure that reporter from ABC, once he got done with that part of his hit, probably thought to himself what did I just say?

[Vinnie Mac]

What was on my teleprompter?

[Big D]

Gotta be. So let's just, let's go a little forward into that interview till about a minute 30 later when the, when the host came back to him. I'm sure he cleaned it up here because he had to be thinking that's probably not the best way to word this. Let's get the follow up here.

[Rick Delgado]

It is.

[Reporter]

It's heartbreaking on so many levels, Kira. Obviously Charlie Kirk was murdered brutally in front of a crowd of thousands of people who watched him being shot through the neck. And then essentially they bleed out in front of him. And I think one of the things that the attorney here made a very fine point about is that a lot of these charges, seven charges were aggravated because children were present, children witnessed this, children were put in harm's way. And that was something that obviously is aggravating here. And that's one of the reasons that the suspect, in addition to the alleged murder being political in nature, is facing the death penalty. They're going for the death penalty penalty. And on the other hand there is this duality of a very, a portrait of a very human person, a very human experience from this entire family. As you mentioned it, the mother who essentially discovered that it was her son who had done this, the kid who had got a 34 out of 36 on the acts, who had a 4.0, who got a full ride to college here, that that kid was the one who allegedly perpetrated. She saw those pictures and said identified him essentially and then those text messages. And I don't think I've ever experienced a press conference in which we've read text messages that are a so fulsome, so robust, so apparently allegedly self incriminating. And yet on the other hand, so touching, right? With the suspect reaching out to his roommate who is allegedly his boyfriend, who we understand, you know, identified as male at birth, now identifies as female. And the terminology he used. He was trying to protect him. He kept calling him my love.

[Rick Delgado]

Love.

[Reporter]

My. My reason for doing this is to protect you. You know, but also asking him to delete the messages and not speak to law enforcement. So there's this. This heartbreaking duality that we're seeing very tragically playing out.

[Rick Delgado]

Stop. What a complete clown shoe.

[Big D]

Have you ever.

[Slick Rick]

That's the worst ever.

[Rick Delgado]

That is the worst.

[Slick Rick]

That's the worst.

[Big D]

That one's worse than the first.

[Rick Delgado]

Oh, my goodness.

[Big D]

Way worse.

[Vinnie Mac]

Yeah.

[Rick Delgado]

Holy moly.

[Slick Rick]

Gave you some thought.

[Vinnie Mac]

Wow.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah. I like the way he tried to walk it back.

[Vinnie Mac]

He walked it back right into a brick wall.

[Rick Delgado]

Holy moly. Wow.

[Big D]

I mean, how do you.

[Rick Delgado]

At some point, does anybody get in this guy's ear and say, stop talking? No, because they all think that way. They're all broken. That's an example of a broken person. He doesn't. He doesn't have rational thoughts because he wouldn't be looking at this guy if this guy did that to somebody in his family. He wouldn't be looking at those text messages going, my goodness, what a. What a loving human being he is to that transitioning homosexual man. I can't believe that they had time to have this conversation and really display their love for each. Who cares?

[Vinnie Mac]

Here's the narrative. A guy like that should be saying, holy moly.

[Big D]

There's just nothing redeemable about the press. There's just that they just need us.

[Vinnie Mac]

He should be talking about. This is a story about brainwashing. This is a story about hate being spewed and being allowed to be spewed by the leaders of this country. This is a story about a young man indoctrinated through the youth, indoctrinated through social media, indoctrinated through all of this hate that they allow and that media, just like this guy, perpetuate and put out. And the end result is he's brainwashed to think he needs to kill Charlie.

[Rick Delgado]

Kirk. Kirk.

[Vinnie Mac]

There's nothing redeeming about this guy whatsoever.

[Rick Delgado]

This guy is brainwashed.

[Vinnie Mac]

Well, the reporter himself.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, the reporter himself is brainwashed to feel if he actually. If he's. And let's face it, maybe he's an actor. You know, he's got the great hair. He's got the great look. He's, you know, he's really pausing at the right moments to get his words out. Right. Maybe he's just an actor playing a role which we've Seen. Because that's the media these days. Actors playing a role world. They don't really care. There's not really much to them. They're empty suits. Maybe he's just an empty suit trying. Hey, how was that? Maybe he gets done with his. With his spot and bows. I nailed it, right? Maybe that's how did. I'm looking for anything to say. Wait, this can't be a real living, breathing, feeling human being who just. We just heard. Who claims to be a reporter giving all this deference to the. The. The murderous assassin who gives a fly in F. Yeah, Yep. That guy does.

[Big D]

It's amazing that he does the first minute seven. And then you got to think when they cut away and go back to the host, he's got to be thinking, oh, I'll take what I shouldn't have said for 500, Alex. And then they come back to him and he not only doubles but triples down with something way worse.

[Vinnie Mac]

Yeah, yeah, but by the way, there are producers in ears. This is how the system actually works.

[Rick Delgado]

Yes. Aaron yells at us all the time.

[Vinnie Mac]

Yeah, there's someone talking to us right here and saying, hey, whatever his name is, Bob. Whatever his name is, you need to backtrack that like so they may be putting this nonsense into his ear. You know, they're as guilty as anybody. You know these folks that are pushing information out to say things because they're doing that.

[Big D]

His name is Matt Gutman. I don't. Never heard of him.

[Slick Rick]

Ms. LSD.

[Vinnie Mac]

I'll buy Gutney for 500.

[Slick Rick]

Oh, ABC.

[Big D]

All right.

[Rick Delgado]

Oh, my goodness gracious.

[Vinnie Mac]

That's typical.

[Slick Rick]

ABC is terrible too.

[Rick Delgado]

They're terrible again.

[Big D]

There's just. I mean, there's nothing upstairs, nothing redeemable about the media. The mainstream media should just cease to exist at this point.

[Vinnie Mac]

They very well might.

[Big D]

All right, hour two coming back.

[Rick Delgado]

Back.

[Big D]

We will get the headlines. We will get the vin next. All right, nine o'.

[Rick Delgado]

Clock.

[Big D]

Hour two. Real America's Voice live from Studio 6B on a Tuesday night. Glad you're in. Slick's doing sports. Delgado's gonna do the news, and Vinny's gonna do his news coming up. We would just keep talking about stuff here, but it's fine. I like doing that too. So Aaron and Fran holding it down as always. You know, people sending us all kinds of videos. Let me just make a couple blanket statements that are fact, fact. Anybody who tells you that there's video of the bullet getting picked up on an iPhone is delusional. And you should play. You should. You should not pay attention to that video anymore because there is no way, none, not even point one percent chance that an iPhone shooting at 24 frames a second is catching a bullet moving at a thousand feet per second. It's not happening. Happening. It's not happening at 24 frames a second. It's not happening at 30 frames a second. It's not Happening 60. Same 60 frames a second. So unless you get somebody there who had their shutter speed at approximately. I don't know. Fran, what do you think it would need to be at to catch a bullet? Like the guy from the Times did when Trump got shot at Butler, that one shot that he was able to catch the bullet. That was a really high shutter speed for that. 100. Couple hundred thousand. 100,000? Yeah, a thousand and probably a thousand and up. 100,000. I think it would have to be a hundred thousand. I don't think they actually shoot that fast. I mean, it would have to be. It ain't. It ain't happening on an iPhone, period. Never. No. No way. There's no. Not. Not with a hand of God at the saying, oh, it was the perfect. No, not possible at 24, 30, or 60 frames a second. And I think the iPhone goes up to240.40. It ain't possible at that either, so. All right, let's do some headlines. Rick Delgado's got him. What's going on, Delgado?

[Rick Delgado]

Are you sure?

[Big D]

Positive. I'm positive about that.

[Rick Delgado]

All right, let's get started with something we. We referenced a little bit earlier. That being, of course, Pam Bondi, who, as you know, I've had my misgivings about her getting in front of my microphone, and, well, she. She. She proved me right yet again. Bondi phrases, faces, criticism. Criticism for saying the DOJ will target anyone who engaged in hate speech.

[Big D]

All right, Delgado, let me interrupt your news.

[Rick Delgado]

Okay.

[Big D]

To breaking breaking news. To freeze a bullet in a photograph, you need a very high shutter speed, typically around 1/3 32,000 of a second or faster, along with a flash trigger to illuminate the bullet as it moves. Okay. Ain't happening on an iPhone.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, that happens on every iPhone.

[Big D]

So all footage you have of iPhones, which is 99.99% of the footage that's out there, is not catching the bullet. And if the video starts with, hey, we have the bullet, just turn it off. Sorry, Delgado. Go ahead.

[Rick Delgado]

Not a problem. Attorney Pam Bondi is facing bipartisan backlash today over her comments that the Justice Department will absolutely target anyone who targets others with hate speech in the Wake of the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Bondi made the comments in a interview with Katie Miller, the wife of the White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller. There's free speech, she said. Then there's hate speech. And there's no place, especially now, especially after what happened to Charlie. In our society, we will absolutely target you, go after you if you're targeting anyone with hate speech. And that is across the aisle. Of course. Those comments quickly gained traction across social media with users Replying from a 2024 post from Charlie Kirk himself in which he wrote, hate speech does not exist legally in America. There's ugly speech, gross speec, evil speech. All of it is protected by the First Amendment. Keep America free. Someone needs to explain that to Ms. Bondi. That so called hate speech, repulsive though it may be, is protected by the First Amendment. She should know this, that according to conservative commentator Brit Hume as he wrote that on X, President Trump was also asked about this as he was getting ready to depart for the UK earlier today. Here he is talking to an ABC reporter when asked about Pam Bondi and her comments is cut number 16. Check this out. Cut 16. President Trump.

[Big D]

And what do you think?

[Vinnie Mac]

Pam Bondi saying she's gonna go after hate speech?

[Big D]

Is that, I mean, a lot of.

[Slick Rick]

People, a lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech. Probably go after people like you because you treat me so unfairly and say.

[Vinnie Mac]

You have a lot of hate in your heart.

[Slick Rick]

Maybe ABC. Well, ABC paid me $16 million recently.

[Rick Delgado]

For a form of hate speech. Right. Your company paid me $16 million for a form of hate speech. So maybe they'll have to go after you. Look, we want everything to be fair.

[Slick Rick]

It hasn't been fair.

[Rick Delgado]

And the radical left has done tremendous.

[Slick Rick]

Damage to the country, but we're fixing it.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, so there's a president talking about, of course, the radical left. And we've seen the results of their hate speech as it is really just inflamed the people on the left.

[Big D]

Yeah, that, that's not his best answer ever that I've ever heard.

[Rick Delgado]

But no.

[Big D]

Yeah.

[Rick Delgado]

Speaking of speech, Democrat, Illinois Governor, one of your favorites there, Dame Governor JB Couldn't. Couldn't say no to.

[Big D]

Couldn't find the salad bar. Pritzker.

[Vinnie Mac]

Yep.

[Rick Delgado]

Couldn't say no to Buffet. Pritzker was swiftly fact checked. Was swiftly fact checked by conservatives on social media for claiming he never called Republicans Nazis. As lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are trading barbs on the heightened political rhetoric following the assassination of Charlie Kirk, that is completely false. He says, I've never called Republicans Nazis. He said that Monday, as a matter of fact, we have him saying it, followed by having him saying it. Here is cut number two. Here is lying JB Pritzker saying I never called them Nazis. Cut number two. True.

[Vinnie Mac]

That is completely false. I have never called Republicans Nazis. Everything that he has done has been tearing down constitutional democracy. And that's what happened in Nazi Germany. It doesn't take very long to tear apart a constitutional republic. Indeed, the Nazis did it in 53 days and our democracy is almost as fragile schedule. And we're seeing it right now, the dangers that we saw in, in, you know, Nazi Germany, especially in the earliest days of, of Nazi Germany, not calling them, the dangers that we need to react to now. If we don't, things will get much, much worse. And so we've got to raise alarm bells to everybody. It's a five alarm fire, everyone.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, it's a five alarm fire for it. Yeah, see, that's how he likes his.

[Big D]

I didn't call direct Nazis. I just said, well, this is what happened in Nazi Germany. As if, you know, so that's different.

[Vinnie Mac]

Yeah.

[Slick Rick]

No correlation.

[Big D]

No, no lunatic out there could infer that I'm, I mean that that's what they are, right?

[Slick Rick]

Clearly not.

[Rick Delgado]

Of course not.

[Big D]

Of course not. Then it's then these terms like Nazi and fascist they decide, you know, it's like saying. And you know, good night and hello.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, good morning.

[Vinnie Mac]

True.

[Rick Delgado]

How are you today?

[Big D]

That's how easy we throw them around.

[Rick Delgado]

Right.

[Big D]

They have no real specific meaning. No one's going to take them, you know, no gaslit into thinking that that's really what they are and that's just.

[Slick Rick]

Because they're in the same sentence. They couldn't have any connection.

[Rick Delgado]

Right, exactly. Well, Pritzker again today says I never called Republicans Nazis. Critics slammed the governor as a pathological liar, saying his public remarks are forever archived on the Internet. Internet. As you can see, we found a few and played them for you right there. And again, this gets right back to everything that's been going on for the past week, actually the past eight years when it comes to President Trump, his administration and his time of not only running for president, but being president as well. They've used this and other things to basically dehumanize him and dehumanize all of us, the people that support, support the President and his policies.

[Vinnie Mac]

How many, how many people did Adolf Hitler kill? 80 million. A number that huge.

[Rick Delgado]

I thought it was six.

[Slick Rick]

Yeah, I think it was an 86 million.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah.

[Vinnie Mac]

He killed.

[Rick Delgado]

That's still a lot, you know, six million.

[Vinnie Mac]

I heard a bigger number. He killed six million people. So, you know, you call. Call people Hitler and Nazis. It gets people angry.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, right.

[Vinnie Mac]

And they want to save the world from that. That's. That. That's the obvious call out, right?

[Rick Delgado]

And it's meant to. Again, it's one of those things where it's like, well, if I stop this guy, I've stopped the next Hitler, so I would be rewarded for it.

[Vinnie Mac]

They're hero, right? They're hero. People on the left actually think that.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, exactly. Hey, I got one more real quick one for you, Damon. You're gonna love this one. Maureen Comey. You know that name?

[Vinnie Mac]

Oh, yeah.

[Rick Delgado]

Prosecutor in the Epstein's and Sean Combs cases, daughter of former FBI director, one James Comey, is now suing the FBI for being fired. Yes, Maureen Comey, the federal prosecutor that I just mentioned, the daughter of former FBI director James Comey, alleges in a lawsuit filed just the other day in federal court in Manhattan that she was not given an explanation for her termination and said it was done in retaliation for being her father's daughter. According to her. I guess you're not ever allowed to be fired. Ms. Comey's termination without cause, without advance notice, and without any opportunity to contest it, was unlawful, according to the lawsuit. In truth, there's no legitimate explanation other than she probably can't be trusted that the defendants fired Ms. Comey solely, unsubstantially, because her father was a former FBI director, James B. Comey, or because of her perceived political affiliations and beliefs. Or both, the lawsuit alleges. So there you have it. We're not done with the Comey's yet. This one wants to go to court, the other one's trying to avoid court, and we'll see what happens.

[Big D]

All right, well, she's probably doing that because she saw today in Cash's committee hearing that somebody asked him who the hell decided to pay Lisa Page and. And Peter Strock each got a couple million bucks to after they got fired. So maybe she's thinking she could pick up a cool, cool couple mil. But wow, now it's up to Pam Bondi and Cash to decide that. So I say zippo. So let's do A quick sports. 11 minutes past the hour. Don't do Vin's news when we get back. What's going on, slick?

[Slick Rick]

All right, Big D, one more quick sweep of the scoreboard while we're at it. We got the Cubs right now leading the Pirates 4 to 1. Top of the 9th. Bottom 8. Guardians 32 over the Tigers, Braves and Nationals. End of 2 after that rain delay, the Athletics over The Red Sox 2 to 1. Mets continue to lead the Padres 8 to 2. End of 2 6. Bottom 5, Blue Jays 63 over the Rays. Brew is over the Angels 5 to 1. Top of the 5th. Orioles continue to lead the White Sox 6 2. Top of the 5th as well. Yankees are up 10 to 1. They're taking care of business in Minnesota. Bottom of the fifth there. Mariners are up. Yep, you guessed it, 10 to 1 over the Royals. Bottom of the fifth. The Cardinals three nothing over the Reds, whose hopes are fading. They're in the bottom of the fifth for this season. Top of the fourth. Astros 2 nothing over the Marlins and the Braves earlier tonight did defend defeat. The Nationals wanted to get to another quick story. I didn't get it, but Sean McVeigh of the Los Angeles Rams, they're actually Torres planta fascia on the sideline of the game on Sunday and now he's down for the count. So I'm not sure how they're going to be able to accommodate him. But during the Rams victory on Sunday, he was running up and down and he tore it. So we'll have to keep an eye on what happens with the coach there. But Sean McVay sidelined on the sideline headline. So that was some story there. That's a rapid sports big D for me right now.

[Big D]

All right. It's like Very good. 12 minutes past the hour. Live from Studio 6B. We'll get to Vinnie's news when we get back. We don't have time right now, but yeah, I mean, when you look at social media and I'm looking at the chat, looking at what's coming in, all the talk is still about this exchange of, of text messages. And listen, there, there is a chance that they added some real life things in there there, and a lot of it still could be made up there. There is a world that we live in that it could be a little mix of both. Like Bannon says, how do you have time to write a sonnet? I mean, there's, there's, there's a chance you could have a mix of both.

[Vinnie Mac]

Yep.

[Big D]

So. All right, Vinnie Max News coming up. We get back live from Studio 6B. Right.

[Rick Delgado]

Sam?

[Big D]

Well, every night on Studio 6B we talk about what's going on in Washington. But. But here's a way to do something about it. That's to join amac, the association of Mature American Citizens. AMAC is the conservative alternative to AARP and they're fighting for the values that we talk about all the time. Faith, family, freedom, and the good old fashioned common sense. Members of AMAC get, excuse me, discounts on travel insurance and prescriptions, plus access to useful resources in the great AMAC magazine delivered to your door. And get this, you can receive up to 33% off when you choose a five year membership. That's just over a dollar a month. To join a movement holding Washington accountable and helping save this country, go to AMAC US Studio 6P right now and join AMAC US Studio 6B and join. Let's stand together and fight back. AMAC US Studio 6B. 17 past the hour. Live from Studio 6B, let's do some news and see what's on. Vinny Mac's my Vinny Mac. What's going on?

[Vinnie Mac]

Yeah, one thing is really, you know, bugging me big time, this whole cancel culture thing. And I'll step back from that for a second and just state that a lot of people have lost their jobs because of moronic things they've said about the assassination of Charlie Kirk and their Delta Pilot. Folks in the news organizations, people with companies, you know, it's great to see that there's some sanity out there and taking care of this. And I hear the people on the left and I see on social media and all the chatter about, you know, cancel culture. I thought you guys hated cancel Culture. Cancel culture. Let me, let me provide some clarity here to the boneheads that are saying that Kevin Hart is a comedian. Kevin Hart made a homophobic joke 20 years ago and he got canceled from hosting the Oscars. That's cancel culture. That's woke. That's, that's saying something that's not politically correct and being fired, not saying something about the assassination of a very prominent political figure and making fun of that and wishing and hoping and being gleeful that he was killed. That's apples and oranges to some video of someone 20 years ago saying something maybe inappropriate, but not vile like this. So it's not cancel culture. It's called just being a decent human being. And none of us. There's nobody in the history of this country that was pro killing someone for their views. Nobody. Now people have been killed for their views. You know, Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, Martin Luther King, okay? There's been people killed for their views. And it's horrific no matter who it is. I equate Charlie Kirk quite a bit to Martin Luther King in the sense that, you know, they were both people just trying to peacefully provide their truth in a conversation in a very peaceful and an uplifting way. They didn't mean harm to anybody. They didn't use violence. They didn't say bad words. They didn't attack people. They didn't. They didn't make fun of people. They didn't do all that. So there's a difference. This is not cancel culture. This is just vile pontificating. The other thing that's on my mind, Damon, is quite interesting because you and I have talked about Joe Manchin in the past, and I've always been a fan of Joe Manchin. I wouldn't vote for Joe Manchin over Donald Trump.

[Big D]

He's a phony snake oil salesman.

[Vinnie Mac]

And there you go. So Damon thinks he's a phony snake oil salesman, but he has come out out, and he's basically thrown the Biden administration and the Obama administration under the bus.

[Big D]

Oh, yeah, sure. It's convenient now.

[Vinnie Mac]

It is.

[Big D]

Why not?

[Vinnie Mac]

Well, I'm gonna take it because I think Joe's speaking some truth. He didn't run again. He dropped out. He's frustrated with the system. But what he had to say about it I think was quite interesting because his message is essentially, they have tried to distort the entire government. Government for their own powerful purposes. They've tried to change things that have been in place throughout our history. They've tried to change laws. He's calling out all the things that we have seen. Here's a guy that was part of the Democratic Party, then became an independent, saying these things. He might be a funny son of a gun, as Damon says. He might be someone that maybe folks don't like. But I love the fact that he's come out and called out those two administrations, in particular, Harry Reid, too, about using the system in such a vile way with this un American, undemocratic, trying to tear down our republic for their own powerful purposes. He calls out Chuck Schumer big time. And I think there's no love lost for Chuck Schumer.

[Big D]

He didn't do it when he was standing next to Chuck all those years.

[Vinnie Mac]

Yeah, well, my guess is they were all threatened and now he doesn't care. But whatever the reason, whatever the reasons back then, I don't like any of that. But with the reasons back then, whatever they were, be that as it may, he's speaking out now and he's telling us things that we all knew, and he's simply validating a lot of the issues that we've been talking about on this show and probably talk about on social media for years and years and years. And that is they don't care. They don't really care about what happens in this country as long as they're in power. That's why they let 10 million people flood into the country. That's why they do all these things that they do this thing. This is about the filibuster is what kind of started the whole conversation. So I say, like him or not, kudos for Joe Manchin for at least speaking out on a subject. I think that more Democrats need to speak out. Fetterman's been talking about it. I heard him today in a great interview. He was with the Republican senator from Pennsylvania. He was on Brett Baier talking about how they're trying to get along. They don't agree and everything. And Fetterman's outraged by what the Democratic Party does when they start talking about the Hitler thing and the Nazi thing and all that.

[Rick Delgado]

That.

[Vinnie Mac]

And at least he's speaking out. And that's going to help us more and more folks on the other side here, the Democratic side. Speaking out like this will help us all come together.

[Big D]

Well, Federman certainly has been more of an individual thinker than the party. I mean, he's like 98 group think with them. But he does have those moments where he at least separates himself and is able to think logically about things and has gone against the party.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah.

[Big D]

Like Bill Maher, which of course, as soon as he did, by the way, they had them all back. They had him like the day after a stroke saying, you know, maybe this guy's not as good as we think and he's really got problems. They're ready to throw him off under the bus as quickly as they could.

[Vinnie Mac]

By the way, taking his medication, the all the.

[Big D]

They would. They were going to back the bus back up over him if they could in about two seconds as soon as he started to make some sense.

[Vinnie Mac]

But he fought it. Unlike Manchin, who kind of rolled back when he was in office. You know, Fetterman did fight the that and challenge them on it, but that's how they roll. Why did any nobody cross Nancy Pelosi? Because she would destroy you. She would destroy your life, your career, everything else.

[Big D]

Hey, Fran, is YouTube down again?

[Rick Delgado]

Okay, well, just for a little context there, Vin, I don't know if you know Joe Manchin all that much, but he. He immediately set up shop on K Street, which I don't know if you're familiar with K Street? Street. That's where all the consultants are.

[Big D]

Ah.

[Rick Delgado]

So he's moved into being a consultant, which means his. His pocketbook is getting quite full. And why is he out now? In the last, oh, I don't know, 24, 48 hours, I see all these things popping up about Joe Manchin. Well, he's got a book to push. Yes. Joe Manchin on his memoir. He started a book tour and I guess this is. This is how it starts. His new book called Dead Center In Defense of Common Sense, takes aim at Washington's toxic political culture.

[Vinnie Mac]

Yeah. At least he's talking about it. I hear you, all that stuff.

[Rick Delgado]

He's only talking about it for money.

[Vinnie Mac]

He's still talking about it. And he's exposing what we all knew was happening. So I'll take it because I want more people on the left to at least throw these people under the bus as much as they possibly can.

[Big D]

All right, 20. Anything else?

[Vinnie Mac]

No, that's all for now.

[Big D]

All right, 25 past the hour. Live from Studio 6B on a Tuesday night night. I was hearing someone talk today about. And we. And we saw when this slime ball was on screen that he was in fact in that. In that getup. Because, Delgado, you said you saw it reported that he's on suicide watch.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, he's on suicide.

[Big D]

And some of the reporting from the dad that we wrote, read in some of those in the prosecutor's kind of brief, said that he had said to the dad that he wanted to just end it. And the dad was able to convince him to come home.

[Rick Delgado]

Correct.

[Big D]

And then kind of keep him at bay until they showed up to get him, I guess. Right. Is that the story?

[Rick Delgado]

Yep, that's the story. And he said he was going to turn himself into a neighbor who's I guess a deputy with the sheriff who.

[Big D]

Was a friend of his or something.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, it's a little convoluted.

[Big D]

Yeah. All right, 26 past the hour. Live from Studio 6B, Philip Patrick from Birch Gold to join us when we get back. Then we'll do some more news, sports, more Vinnie Mac before we wrap it up on a Tuesday night right after this. Sam, 30 minutes past the hour. Live from Studio Six Bay on a Tuesday night, September 16th. Glad you're in. Make sure you follow us on all of our social media at LFS6 bay. Slick's gonna do some more sports. Delgado, we'll get to a couple more headlines. Vinnie Mac may get to some more news as well. But right now, please welcome back to the show our friend from Birch Gold Group. He's a precious metal specialist. That's our friend, Philip Patrick. Mr. Patrick, how are you?

[Philip Patrick]

Doing well, how are you?

[Big D]

Very, very good. Always a pleasure to have you on this show. Thanks for a few moments. Scott Bessant, he published an interesting read in the op ed in the Wall Street Journal. What was your big takeaway from it?

[Philip Patrick]

Yeah, it was first it was interesting to see the Treasury Secretary writing an op ed in the Wall Street Journal. But basically he accused the Fed of a mission creep, saying that they'd strayed far beyond their legal mandate of stable prices and maximum employment. Basically saying since 2008 they have relied, as we know, on extraordinary tools. Things like near zero interest rates, quantitative easing that were experiments that permanently distorted the economy. And instead of improving the economy, all they did was create a de facto backstop for the wealthy. So what we saw was large corporations thrived, they locked in cheap debt. Homeowners who bought earlier got richer as assets price soars. But it was the younger and middle class Americans that were left behind. They were priced out of housing, punished by inflation and missing the upside. His warning I think was very clear. He said the Fed's ongoing experiment in monetary policy has not only undermined its independence and credibility, but also the financial future of everyday working Americans. And I think he's absolutely right.

[Big D]

Yeah, I hear you. But isn't that exactly what's going to happen when the Fed starts cutting interest rates? You look at the housing market and you look at hard assets like gold and precious metals, Bitcoin, other things you look at. I mean, this is when these things are set to run. As soon as he starts easing what it's going to. Isn't there a case to be made that it's just going to get worse?

[Philip Patrick]

Yeah, honestly, I think the Fed is damned if they do and damned if they don't. If they cut interest rates, it's going to lead to a spike in Africa asset prices, but will ultimately fuel inflation which is already creeping up. The alternative is to hold firm or raise and ultimately you'll escalate what is, I think an inevitable recession. So it's tough. Debt service is looming in the background as well. So the Fed are in a very tough, tough situation.

[Big D]

Yeah. And so getting back to Besson, he said in this article he accused the Fed of pursuing what he calls the wealth effect, I believe is what he called it. So for people who have maybe have not heard that term, maybe explain it in kind of layman's terms, what does he mean by that kind of what you already said. But just explain it again.

[Philip Patrick]

Of course. And I think it explains very well the position we're in today. Look, it's the idea or the Fed's belief, I should say that if they used unconventional policies to push up asset prices, people who own those assets would feel richer and ultimately spend more. And that spending was supposed to trickle down, down the economy to everyone else. On paper it was supposed to boost growth, but in reality all it did was supercharge the economy. The, the concept is flawed. See, it's only the 10% wealthiest Americans, they own 90% of financial assets and real estate. So what happened is they got richer, a lot richer. In fact, their share of, of total American wealth has risen fourfold hold since the year 2000, since the turn of the century. But the problem is everybody else, middle and working class families, they didn't own financial assets. So instead of benefiting from higher prices, they just faced higher costs. I think housing is the perfect example. We saw all the headlines last year. The average American family can no longer afford the average home. And I think what we're seeing now is a generation getting shut out, out of home ownership. And I think Besson explained quite well how this happened. The result is a two track economy. One where asset owners are insulated from inflation while everyone else, especially hard working Americans, are steadily impoverished. As Besson put it, the wealth effect has already made the wealthy Americans much wealthier and it's done so at the expense of everybody else.

[Big D]

Yeah, and that kind of explains what's happened kind of to the middle class through all of this. But Besson calls for reform at the Fred, at the Fed. But when you look at this, I mean, intellectually, it's hard to make the argument that one guy, and I know he's going to leave early next year, we're going to get a new Fed president. But certainly it's hard to make the argument that one guy is responsible for this. When you look at the financial situation of the country, the debt, the inflation, I mean, quite frankly, I remember a time President Trump in his first term when rates were effectively zero, was still calling for cuts. So I mean, both sides have had some hand in this changing. The Federal Reserve chairman is not, is, is that enough change to fix any of this?

[Philip Patrick]

No, absolutely not. Not at all. And it affects the impartiality of the Fed. I think it's, it's had a negative effect, quite frankly. That's why Trump and Besson have come out and said, look, we're not, we're not going to do it. Look, I think that we don't fire the Fed chairman, it's not going to achieve anything. I think looking at reforming the Fed, how they work longer term, some oversight may not be a bad idea, but certainly firing power is not going to achieve anything. The bigger issue is this. No reform is going to undo decades of distortion. You can't unpop a housing bubble, you can't redistribute wealth up. So even if the Fed were to revert to a narrow, narrow role. Sorry. Which I think they should, we've still got the middle class stuck paying the bills of inflated prices and deflated wages. There's not a way out of that.

[Big D]

So, you know, what do people do? They're looking at this, they're hearing you right now and they're saying, well, you know, if I've been lucky enough to even save, if you have a savings, what do people do to protect it?

[Philip Patrick]

You buy gold. And, and I, I hate to be so blunt about it, but you know, I'm buying in this climate as much as I possibly can. I'm following central banks. Central banks are setting records. They've done so for the last three years. They've set a new record in the first six months of this year. They see the writing on the wall. Look, any student of history has to Understand we got 30, 37 trillion dollars of debt. We've got a 2 trillion dollars annual deficit. This doesn't bode well for the dollar's value long term. Gold is now the second largest global reserve asset. It overtook the euro officially last year. It is now a larger share of central bank reserves than U.S. treasuries for the first time in a long time. Let's not Forget in the 80s, gold was king when it came to central bank reserves. Curves over 65%. I think we are heading back to that. That doesn't bode well for the dollar, but it does bode well for gold. So I think everybody has to have a hedge. It's that simple.

[Big D]

And gold right now sitting at 36.78 and it continues to be set up on an up, up to the left trajectory and it seems like it's going to continue that way. So Philip, always a pleasure to have you on the show. We always appreciate it.

[Philip Patrick]

Thank you Damon. Thanks guys.

[Big D]

And of course you can text America to 989-898. Text America 989-898. Throw this up, Aaron, just because it is a pretty crazy chart. I mean when you, when you look at the performance there's the performance of gold. Wow. This is. This is right here. This bottom right over here is. Is 2023. And you see, you see what it's done two years and now it's at 36.77. That's what the chart looks like. Like up, up and to the right. I think I said before up to the left. I meant up and to the right. But just to give you an idea, there it is. Since 2019 back here. This was 1150. Gold was at back here. July of 2016. It was at 1048.

[Vinnie Mac]

Why don't you tell me to buy it then?

[Big D]

So.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, I don't understand.

[Vinnie Mac]

What are you waiting for?

[Big D]

You could have.

[Slick Rick]

He could have sold you some nice bouillons.

[Vinnie Mac]

Yeah.

[Big D]

So. All right, 38 past the hour. Let's do some more headlines. Rick Delgado's got him. What's going on? Delgado?

[Rick Delgado]

All right. Well, of course, Cash Patel making waves on Capitol Hill today as he was up there to talk to senators or actually be yelled at by senators and accused of things. Of course, Cash Patel not want to hold his tongue very much. He was questioned on a bunch of things, including. Including the current investigation going on in Utah regarding the assassin of Charlie Kirk. Also about crime in the country. They also talked about, oh, many different things, one of which involved. Well, let's just skip to it because they were. They were jumping around. They want to know about Jeffrey Epstein. Here's what Cash Patel had to say about Jeffrey Epstein. Here he is saying. Talking about the evidence that he has found. Cut number nine. Check this out. Here's FBI director Cash Patel on Jeffrey Epstein. Evidence cut nine.

[Big D]

You've seen most of the files.

[Rick Delgado]

Who, if anyone, did Epstein traffic these young women to besides himself? Himself.

[Vinnie Mac]

There is no credible information.

[Rick Delgado]

None. If there were, I would yesterday that he trafficked to other individuals. And the information we have again is limited. So the answer is no one limited. For the information that we have there again in the files. In the case file. Okay, there it is. Now, of course, everybody's had exploded because even mine for a second. But I'm like, wait, what did he just say? Let me listen to this again. Oh, for the case files that we have. In other words, there's the key that. That's the key.

[Big D]

Yeah. Clear.

[Rick Delgado]

Because there. He's not talking about any files that they may have uncovered.

[Vinnie Mac]

Yeah.

[Rick Delgado]

Talked about the ones that they have that he's gone through.

[Big D]

Okay.

[Rick Delgado]

That's what he's talking about.

[Vinnie Mac]

The missing file.

[Big D]

Not.

[Rick Delgado]

Not the current investigation that could be going on that we don't know about, which is fine.

[Vinnie Mac]

So not your files.

[Rick Delgado]

We can't talk about those because I haven't gone through them yet. The ones that we've seen, the ones they gave us when I walked in, this is what we have. Those have been scrubbed.

[Vinnie Mac]

Okay.

[Rick Delgado]

Of course that didn't sit well with most people, including one Adam Schiff. And here is Cash Patel going off on Adam shift after they went back and forth on the Jeffrey Epstein stuff. Here is cut number 10. You can check this out for yourself. Cut number 10. Sit back and enjoy.

[Vinnie Mac]

Believe that. Do you think they're stupid?

[Rick Delgado]

No, I think the American people believe the truth. That I'm not in the weeds on the everyday movements.

[Slick Rick]

What I am doing is protecting this country, providing historic reform and combating the weaponization of intelligence by the likes of you.

[Rick Delgado]

And we have countlessly proven you to be a liar in Russia.

[Slick Rick]

Gate in January 6.

[Rick Delgado]

You are the biggest fraud to ever sit in the United States Senate. You are disgraced to this institution and an utter coward.

[Vinnie Mac]

That's right, baby. I'm not surprised that you continue to.

[Rick Delgado]

Lie from your perch and put on.

[Slick Rick]

A show so you can go raise money for your charade.

[Rick Delgado]

You are a political buffoon at best.

[Vinnie Mac]

Oh man, love that. Take it to the bank that the.

[Rick Delgado]

FBI is protecting this country. California, we have seen historic reform, Internet point of order. But all you care about is a child sex predator that was prosecuted by.

[Slick Rick]

A prior administration and the Obama Justice.

[Rick Delgado]

Department and the Biden Justice Department did squat.

[Slick Rick]

And what did President Trump do?

[Rick Delgado]

[Slick Rick]

[Slick Rick]

[Rick Delgado]

Go ahead and run to the cameras.

[Slick Rick]

Where you want to go now.

[Rick Delgado]

Both.

[Big D]

Of you be quiet. Wow, he also had a she was way too kind on him.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah, he had a similar exchange with. He could have had some explanatives. What's his name? Corey. Who from? From New Jersey.

[Vinnie Mac]

Cory Booker. Spartacus. Yes, Spartacus got left.

[Rick Delgado]

They had a great back and forth as well where cash unloaded on him as well. But there, there you just a little taste of what was going down on Capitol Hill today. Cash.

[Big D]

The only thing cash misses. If he said listen here, pencil neck.

[Vinnie Mac]

I thought a holy shift would have been nice.

[Big D]

Listen here, watermelon.

[Rick Delgado]

Watermelon ahead. It was a shift show. Sam it.

[Big D]

All right. 13th of the hour. Live from Studio 6B. This is why you want to watch on socials. If you missed the break. You missed them. We discovered that Vin is trying to steal hats. He's a kleptomaniac that are sent to us and I haven't designated who they're for. And Vin's got three of them already says, oh, I'm taking these. Well, no, you're not. So now he had to earn them if he wants those. So we're making them earn it by wearing all three of them.

[Vinnie Mac]

Yes.

[Big D]

Together here in the last segment of the show. And so then maybe, I guess we'll, we'll have to convene as a group.

[Vinnie Mac]

And if you guys talk about that.

[Slick Rick]

Many lids since Biden was in office.

[Big D]

13 to the hour. Live from Studio 6B. Let me get to everybody here before we wrap. Slick. I'll start with you. Sports is brought to you by Mike Lindell. LFS XP is the promo code to use. What else is going on?

[Slick Rick]

Well, Hulk Hogan's widow believes Emmys snubbed due to politics this is one of Todd Houston and Breitbart wrestling legend Hulk. Hulk Hogan's widow is ripping the Emmy Awards for excluding her husband from its annual In Memoriam segment. And she thinks he was snubbed for supporting Donald Trump. Linda Hogan was shocked and disheartened after finding out that her husband was left out of the yearly memorial. She says it's because Hogan supported political ideas that most in Hollywood do not. I can't prove that. It's just a guess, but they should have named him, she said. According to Entertainment Weekly, Linda, who was Hogan's first wife, married the wrestling star in 1993. The pair divorced in 2009. Hulk Hogan died of a myocardial. Myocardial infraction in July. WWF at the top of the hour when he came on to wrestle, Hulk said. At the highest of ratings on NBC, beating all other competition for that time slot for years. Linda added, I really can't tell you why they left him out. Just a guess, considering the way he was treated at his last appearance in la, Linda paid tribute to her former husband on social media after he died. Hulk, of course, was a prominent Trump supporter. He even appeared at the GOP national convention, which, of course, we all remember him talking about trumpamania. But yeah, kind of a sad story. They do go through all the people that have passed away and they forgot that Trump's there. I mean, he was one of the biggest entertainers there ever was. And obviously we know he passed this year, so thought that was some sad news. And just one more quick one big D while we're on the subject tonight. Right. Trans rider who celebrated Charlie Kirk's death disavowed by US Olympic BMX team Warner Todd Houston and brought bread. I don't know if you saw this woman that's been, you know, chirping away the last couple of days about Charlie Kirk. The US Olympic women's BMX team has moved to distance itself from a transgender member of the team who celebrated Charlie Kirk's assassination and told those against trans athletes to go suck a shotgun. Transgender athlete Chelsea Wolf, an alternate in BMX for the US at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, posted. A significant number of social media opposed giddey over Charlie Crook's assassination in the days after his death. But Team USA has come out to remind Olympic fans that Wolff was no longer a member of the team. The views of current and former national team athletes are their own and do not reflect those of the USA Cycling Wolf, who identifies as a woman, shared multiple posts celebrating Kirk's death, including one with the words we did it. In a separate post, the trans cyclist said, it's just terrible. I'm not even going to read the rest of this, but we all say they've disavowed her from the team and she's no longer associated with her.

[Big D]

Has the WWE fired the Rock star daughter as of today?

[Slick Rick]

Yeah, we wrote that story last night. I have not seen anything about them firing Rock's daughter at all. No. Terrible. But that's a wrap in sports. Big D, back to you.

[Big D]

All right, very good, Vinnie Mac, what else is on your mind?

[Vinnie Mac]

You know, I messaged you about this. There's a young man, the son of one of our listeners, Connor Jackson is his name. He made a video and others have made videos like this. A heartfelt video about his. And he's a young man. I think he's 18, 19 years old.

[Rick Delgado]

Old.

[Vinnie Mac]

A heartfelt video about Charlie Kirk's assassination and how it affected him and all those sorts of things and put it up on TikTok and they. They banned it. They banned a lot of these heartfelt videos that young people posted in support of Charlie and also an outrage of. He sent it to me. Oh, and it's excellent. Sent it through Facebook, which did not take it down down, but it was taken down a TikTok and I just wanted to give him a shout out because, one, I told him I would and two, you know, it's this type of censorship that we don't want to see. He didn't say anything outrageous in this video other than his heartfelt emotions. For what happened. So that's one thing I wanted to call out. And the second piece of things that jumped out at me today was, I don't know if you saw this, but Trump said on Monday that he was going to file a $15 billion lawsuit against the New York Times for a bunch of stuff they printed about, about him and Jeffrey Epstein. And I just love when Trump does this. I know some people might not feel the same way, but I feel pretty strongly about it because it's his way of leveling the playing field. And he wins. He's winning these lawsuits. I'm waiting to see what happens with the Wall Street Journal lawsuit. He's won a few already against abc.

[Big D]

Has he actually filed the Wall Street Journal one?

[Vinnie Mac]

I don't know. I don't know for a fact if he has. I know he's threatened to, but I don't know if he has. Has. And he's. He's doing the same here. He says he's filing this lawsuit.

[Big D]

No, I think this one. He did the New York Times. He did, Right.

[Vinnie Mac]

Yeah.

[Big D]

Didn't he file it today?

[Vinnie Mac]

That's what it says. He said he would file it, maybe filed it today.

[Big D]

I thought. I thought I saw something.

[Vinnie Mac]

I guess the point is that when the President, United States takes action like this and he wins, it opens the gates for all of us and all of the lies that they say over and over again. How many times have we seen the New York Times and many of these other, you know, organizations, I'm not even going to call them news organizations, print stuff and then put a retraction on page 72 or higher buried somewhere on their website when they just misled people for years, months, days, whatever that is, and then they have to put a little retraction up. No one takes any action. There's never anything that's done. This is how we can level the playing field with the media, is with things like this. And Trump is leading by example. You have something here.

[Big D]

Yeah. This is his truth today. Today I have the great honor of bringing a $15 billion.

[Rick Delgado]

Yeah.

[Big D]

Defamation and libel lawsuit against the New York Times, one of the worst and most degenerate newspapers in the history of our country, become a virtual mouthpiece for the radical left Democrat Party. I view it as the single largest illegal campaign contribution ever. He's absolutely right.

[Vinnie Mac]

He's absolutely right. And. And what we need is more people to do this because they've defamed and lied about so many people. And I guess the irony of all of this, you know, you Talk about the, the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the violence that happens. This is how it happens. They print some nonsensical stuff that's not true. They haven't checked their facts. It's not validated. And people start, people on the left especially, they believe this. That's how they get brainwashed and so on and so forth. So we have to use whatever powers we have to take action here. And Trump is doing that, leading by example.

[Big D]

All right, 53. Seven minutes till the top of the hour. What other headlines Rick Delgado, do you want to get to?

[Rick Delgado]

All right, one quick juicy one from over the weekend is Senator Rand Paul is calling on Dr. Anthony Fauci to appear again before the Senate after exposing emails from Foushee that conflict with statements he made before Congress. Here he is with Maria Bartiromo over the weekend. Cut number six. Talking about what they found on Dr. Fauci destroying documents. Cut number six. Check it out. And what we've discovered is that Anthony Fauci was destroying federal records, was encouraging other people to destroy federal records. That is a crime. He tells, testified to the House a year ago and said he wasn't doing that. That's a crime to perjure himself. And so we will bring him back. I've asked him to come and testify this fall. If he doesn't come voluntarily, we will subpoena him. The question is, is he immune because of the pardon? I think that that needs to be challenged in court. I have encouraged the Trump administration that they should prosecute this case and challenge the auto pen. Yeah. So there you have it. The documents obtained by the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental affairs commitment, try to say that three times fast. Show that Fauci, the former director of the niaid, directed his employees and other National Institutes of Health people to destroy email records and other communications which you heard Rand Paul talk about right there. The letter outlines also, Fauci testified to the House oversight last year that he did not destroy any government records. In two emails dated in February and July of 2020, he then asked, please delete this email after you read it. So I hope, I hope they get him to come in, see what he has to say. Again, if he's, if he's free and clear, if he's protected by the, by the pardon, then he'll have no problem telling the truth because, you know, he.

[Vinnie Mac]

Can'T claim, you know, there's a documentary about him by Angel Studios. Oliver Stone made it just released. So I would recommend go see it.
