Turning Point Tonight with Joe Bob – December 4, 2025

Podcast: Real America’s Voice
Host: Joe Bob
Date: December 5, 2025
Episode Theme:
Joe Bob takes aim at three developments: alleged political complicity in the Minneapolis welfare fraud scandal centered on Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, California’s apparent mismanagement of finances and Governor Gavin Newsom’s request for federal wildfire aid, and the controversial appointment of a felon as a criminal justice advisor by New York City’s mayor-elect. Throughout, Joe Bob maintains his trademark sarcastic, combative, and humorous tone while challenging mainstream media narratives and progressive approaches to U.S. policy and governance.

EPISODE OVERVIEW

Joe Bob covers:

• The biggest welfare fraud in U.S. history and questions about Rep. Ilhan Omar's awareness.
• California’s financial woes, Governor Newsom’s request for federal wildfire funds, and why federal authorities are skeptical.
• New York City’s new mayoral transition team, including a felon-turned-advisor and the implications for public safety policy.
• The DOJ’s lawsuit against states (including California) for not maintaining accurate voter rolls.
• Listener feedback and social commentary.

KEY DISCUSSION POINTS & INSIGHTS

---

1. Minneapolis Welfare Fraud & Ilhan Omar

Summary:
Joe Bob dives into the massive “Feeding Our Future” fraud in Minnesota, centering on its ties to Somali-American networks and Rep. Ilhan Omar’s 5th District, raising questions about her direct or indirect knowledge and complicity.

Key Points:

• The fraud: Over $1 billion stolen from Minnesota taxpayers through fake meal claims, with about 80 people indicted, the majority from Omar’s district.
• Feeding Our Future, a nonprofit, fraudulently claimed to provide meals and other services.
• Circumstantial ties to Omar: She introduced the 2020 Meals Act (which moved $250M to Minnesota); her campaign and associates had connections to individuals later convicted in the scheme.
• Notable coincidences: Her 2018 victory party was held at a restaurant co-owned by one fraudster (Ahmed Said), and another campaign staffer with the same surname ran a fake food site and pled guilty.
• Joe Bob’s core thesis: Even if there’s no direct evidence, the circumstantial connections are “remarkable.” He repeatedly asks listeners to decide—was Omar “stupid or sinister?”

Memorable Quotes & Moments:

“All of this is circumstantial. But at the same time, we will be posed with the question, is she stupid or sinister?”
— Joe Bob (04:48)

“Omar received $7,400 in direct donations from now convicted fraudsters. But after the scandal broke in 2022, she returned the donations. Interesting how you can do that once you’re elected…”
— Joe Bob (11:14)

Timestamps for this segment:

• [03:04] – [16:49]
  Covers the detailed explanation, campaign ties, and philosophical assessment (“stupid or sinister”).

2. California’s Fiscal Crisis & Wildfire Aid Request

Summary:
Joe Bob delivers a scathing review of California’s budget difficulties, Governor Newsom’s pursuit of federal disaster money, and state spending priorities, painting a picture of chronic fiscal mismanagement.

Key Points:

• Observation on high DMV fees and pothole-ridden roads as emblematic of poor governance ([22:15]).
• Newsom asks the federal government for $40B in wildfire recovery—even as CA runs an $18B deficit on a $322B budget.
• Critique of state spending priorities:
  • $13B deficit attributed to free healthcare for illegal immigrants.
  • $50M allocated to fighting Trump in court.
  • $300M on a special election.
  • Over $24B on homelessness with rising homeless counts.
• High speed rail project: Ballooned from $33B (planned) to $200B (estimated), far behind schedule.
• Joe Bob argues that Newsom’s record offers little reason for federal trust, and notes both federal and private aid from earlier disasters remain unaccounted for.

Memorable Quotes & Moments:

“California has one of the worst roads in the country, but at least it’s unbelievably expensive to drive them.”
— Joe Bob (22:31)

“Homelessness has been entirely eradicated from the state. Everyone has... Sorry, Glenn is waving me. Oh, sorry. It actually appears that homelessness has gone up.”
— Joe Bob (28:59)

“Governor Newsom still maintains that California does not have any of the money to rebuild from the wildfires and is continuing to fund the high-speed rail that will never exist.”
— Joe Bob (32:24)

Timestamps for this segment:

• [22:15] – [33:10]
  Road fees, Newsom’s funding requests, budget priorities, and the high-speed rail debacle.

3. NYC Mayor’s Felon Adviser & Public Safety (Social Workers vs. Cops)

Summary:
Shifting to New York, Joe Bob reacts to viral videos mocking the idea of social workers replacing cops, and reviews the mayor-elect’s appointment of a convicted armed robber as a criminal legal system adviser.

Key Points:

• Viral clip: Street brawl in NYC prompts sarcasm about “social workers” being the liberal solution to crime.
• Mayor-elect Zorhan Mamdani’s appointment of Mysonne Linen—a felon who served 7 years for armed robberies (including against taxi drivers)—to his transition team’s legal system committee.
• Concerns: Linen never admitted guilt, maintains innocence, and has controversial associations (e.g., ties to Louis Farrakhan).
• Critique of progressive approaches to criminal justice, echoing skepticism over “redemption” as a qualifier for public safety policy leadership.

Memorable Quotes & Moments:

“If there’s any idea that’s worse than trying to get social workers to break up violent situations, it’s probably appointing felons to advise on the criminal system.”
— Joe Bob (41:14)

“Redemption is always on the table… I don’t know that this kind of past makes somebody ideal, best suited for a role advising the mayor.”
— Joe Bob (44:18)

Timestamps for this segment:

• [39:12] – [46:41]
  Coverage of viral clips, Mamdani's controversial advisory appointments, and reactions.

4. DOJ Sues California & Other States Over Voter Rolls

Summary:
Joe Bob explains the Department of Justice’s lawsuit against 12 states, including California, for failing to keep accurate and up-to-date voter registration rolls, expounding on the implications for election integrity.

Key Points:

• DOJ’s core allegation: States have not purged ineligible (deceased, moved, felon) voters in violation of the NVRA of 1993.
• Personal anecdotes: Joe Bob recounts stories of ballots being sent to dead relatives and to those who moved out of state.
• Statistical analysis: California reportedly has 22.9M registered voters out of an eligible 25.7M, unusually high participation on paper.
• His central concern: If people don’t believe in fair elections, faith in democracy erodes irreparably.
• He closes with a recurring joke:

“My dad voted for a Democrat for the first time in his life in this last election. That would have never happened if he was still alive.”
— Joe Bob (58:21)

Timestamps for this segment:

• [53:30] – [58:32]
  Introduces DOJ lawsuit and discusses voter roll problems and personal/family anecdotes.

---

5. Listener Emails & Social Commentary

Summary:
Joe Bob reads and riffs on listener emails covering a range of topics from earlier episodes, including immigration to Samoa, Somali immigration in Minnesota, and celebrities’ political threats to flee the country.

Key Points:

• Why are there many Somalis in Minnesota? One listener says “Lutheran social services.”
• Riffs on celebrities who said they’d “leave the country if Bush won.”
• Encourages fans to write in, especially with “vile, disgusting, bigoted, and horrible” emails, tongue-in-cheek.

Notable Quotes:

“If half the libs who said ‘I’m leaving the country if a conservative gets elected’ actually did it, maybe we wouldn’t be in this position.”
— Joe Bob (67:06)

Timestamps for this segment:

• [63:33] – [68:15]

---

NOTABLE QUOTES & MEMORABLE MOMENTS (with Attribution)

• “We will be posed with the question: Is she stupid or sinister?” — Joe Bob (04:48)
• “It’s probably just a coincidence, right? Nobody could have seen this coming.” — Joe Bob, on Omar's district and the fraudsters (06:32)
• “Homelessness has been entirely eradicated from the state. Everyone has a... oh, sorry. Glenn is waving me. Oh, sorry. It actually appears that homelessness has gone up.” — Joe Bob (28:59)
• “If there’s any idea that’s worse than trying to get social workers to break up violent situations, it’s probably appointing felons to advise on the criminal system.” — Joe Bob (41:14)
• “My dad voted for a Democrat for the first time in his life in this last election. That would have never happened if he was still alive.” — Joe Bob (58:21)

SUMMARY FOR NEW LISTENERS

Even if you haven’t tuned in, this punchy, irreverent episode explores government corruption, fiscal incompetence, and controversial justice reforms. Joe Bob spares neither political left nor public officials he sees as failing their constituents—using biting humor, personal anecdotes, and crowd-sourced emails to drive home his skepticism of prevailing progressive policies and calls for more accountability. Whether or not you agree with his politics, the episode offers a window into the arguments driving much of conservative grassroots media in the run-up to 2026.

[Joe Bob (Host of Turning Point Tonight)]

What did Congresswoman Ilhan Omar know about the rampant fraud that was primarily going on in her district? Speaking of fraud, Governor Gavin Newsom is asking the Feds for money and the Feds are saying hey what, what are you doing with the money that you already have? And also mam Danny, the Mayor elect of New York City has appointed yet another criminal to help him top crime. I laugh because it's too difficult to cry. All that more coming up on this episode of Turning Point Tonight. My name is Joe Bob. Thanks so much for tuning in. Together we are charting the course of America's cultural comeback. This is Turning Point tonight. TPTP USA.com is the email address if you'd like to send along your thoughts, comments, concerns, even criticisms.

YouTube channel, Rumble X account, Facebook, Instagram, all of the social media platforms. The hack is Joe Bob is objectively a weird name. I'm aware of that. You're aware of that. But it does provide an advantage to be able to find things on the Internet. Just type in J O B o B pretty much anywhere on social media. You'll be able to find all of the Turning Point Tonight content including exclusive extra segment that we can only do online one because it's just, it's too graphic and terrible and we don't want to harm the viewers here in real America's Voice. And because we just have a confined amount of time and that's the only place you can find it on our social media accounts. Turning point tonight on YouTube, Facebook, rumble, all of these social media accounts. Now to this. We have been talking about the fraud going on in Minneapolis now for several weeks. And it has come to our attention that, well, maybe it's possible that one of the congress people that we like to hit so much here on Turning Point tonight, Congresswoman Ilhan Omar may have had some knowledge as to the rampant fraud going on in her community by a bunch of Somali refugees who have again, stolen $1 billion from Minnesota taxpayers. So, of course, the question is, what did she know? When did she know it? I'll start off by saying this. All of this is circumstantial. But at the same time, we will be posed with the question, is she stupid or sinister? That's. We've been going on that theme for so long here and on Turning Point tonight, stupid or sinister? And sometimes it's a little bit of bleed over, a little bit of both. And we'll all decide for ourselves at the end of this explanation as to which Congresswoman Ilhan Omar fits into here specifically to set it up. I know, I know you all know this because we've been talking about it for days and a bunch of people been talking about it. This became the largest welfare scheme in U.S. history, totaling a billion dollars. Nearly 80 people have been indicted to date on this massive fraud. Interestingly enough, Ilhan OMAR represents the 5th district in Minnesota where 60 of the 79% of people indicted happen to live. Oh, they just all happened to live in her district. Most of the money that was funneled outside of the or the Minnesota taxpayers into the pockets of schemers and fraudsters came from the now defunct nonprofit called Feeding Our Future. What happened was, and again, just to reiterate briefly, these people were billing the government saying, hey, we are providing these meals. And they actually didn't provide anything to anybody. They were phantom meals that never actually existed. The fraud included several thousands of bogus claims. Providing shelter for homeless people, diagnosing non autistic children with autism, feeding people that needed to be fed, all under the guise of trying to steal taxpayer money through fraud. Now, interestingly enough. Okay, well, how did that money get allocated? How did the money get to Minnesota? Uh, obviously via the Minnesota taxpayers. But interestingly enough, a bunch of it came from the federal government. Uh, Representative Ilhan Omar herself actually introduced the 2020 Meals act, which was passed with bipartisan support, should state that out there, not nobody is without guilt here in this particular situation. But that very legislation, again introduced by Representative Ilhan OMAR, led to $250 million being handed out by the Minnesota government to provide meals to schoolchildren during the pandemic from 2020 onward. Instead of feeding the children, the money was pocketed by the corrupt business owners that again, the majority of them lived in Ilhan Omar's district. It's probably just a. Is probably just a coincidence, right? Nobody. Nobody could have seen this coming. Interestingly enough, Ilhan omar held her 2018 congressional victory party at a restaurant called Safari Restaurant. Okay, well, why is that significant? Well, the co owner of that restaurant, someone named Ahmed Said, Salim Ahmed Said, was found guilty in August of stealing over $12 million for providing 3.9 million phantom meals. But of course, Ilhan Omar, who again introduced the legislation that led to hundreds of millions of dollars going into Minnesota and also happened to be at this restaurant where the co owner was found guilty of a bunch of things. $12 million stolen. That again, totally, totally a coincidence when this person was found guilty of that. Said, much of the stolen money was spent, unfortunately, and probably not recoupable unless they are forced to sell this home. $2 million is spent on a Minneapolis. Minneapolis mansion. And a $9,000 a month shopping habit at Nordstrom's. But again, Ilhan Omar probably had no idea that this was happening right under her very nose with likely her friends involved. Well, why? Okay, why? Why, why? Why? Why? Well, interestingly enough, also, someone with the same last name Said. Not their last names. Their last name is Said S A I D. So that will get confusing because. Well, that's an American word and I don't want you to be too confused. Same last name. Now, just to. To clarify, the Internet does not show any direct ty. It might just be a coincidence that these people have the same exact name. Uh, but another person named Said worked on Omar's 2018 and 2020 campaign as the enforcer overseeing voter mobilization in the Somali community. Uh, Said, again the name, not somebody saying something, also ran a fake food site called Advanced youth Athletic Development where he falsely claimed to serve 5,000 meals per per day. This person also pocketed $3.2 million from the food program and pled guilty in August. Omar and Said obviously were frequently at events together, considering they worked with each other in the campaigns. But again, there's no way Representative Ilhan Omer would have known any of this because she's either monumentally stupid or she did know and is hiding all of it.

Others who received a bunch of fraudulent money claiming to be helping the poor people of Minneapolis in that particular 5th congressional district, also interestingly enough, were donors to Omar's campaign. Who would have thought? Omar received $7,400 in direct donations from now convicted fraudsters. But after the scandal broke in 2022, she returned the donations. Interesting how you can do that once you're elected and the donations have already been spent and used on your campaign to get you into Congress. Yeah, it's probably pretty easy to return 7,000 bucks. But who knows? Would she have won without the money from these people who were participating in the fraud? Now, of course we all know that red flags were war raised and the governor of the state was warned. In 2021, the Minnesota Department of Education flagged Feeding Our future for irregularities and serious deficiencies to say the least. By the way, I think this is the New York Post reporting, uh, and did not complete any audits. Um, but when that happened, Ilhan Omar's top aide came rushing to the defense saying, I'm tired of hearing this story. We, we, we don't want to hear about this story any longer anymore. And what happens in so many cases, especially when libs are being criticized, immediately the race card was played. Whistleblowers that were saying, hey, there's this massive fraud here. There's a hundreds of billion dollars being sent to these organizations that aren't actually doing anything and they're just pocketing the money. Anytime a whistleblower would say, hey, this is, this is a problem, we should take a look at that. Uh, they unfortunately faced the fear of being called racist and therefore everyone was reluctant to actually say, oh, all of the things that were actually happening. Former Minnesota legislature David Gaither said this. When you raise your hand and call into question, you get handed the racism card. You're shamed, you're put in a corner. Especially if you're some mid level bureaucrat, you're told to take some remedial training and look the other way. Which brings us to another, bigger, broader point. Not only, and I want to bury the lead here, I think Ilhan Omar definitely knew what was going on. Uh, but not just her. It appears that a bunch of other people knew, which is inherently a bigger 30,000 foot problem. You know, how many people have to know about a fraud in order to steal a billion dollars worth of things? And yet nobody in that community came forward and said, hey, uh, I don't know. I was offered $10,000 to claim my kid has autism.

But they don't. Nobody, even the people that denied the money, came forward because of the. I don't. I don't know. The. The community.

Cohesiveness, I guess, is the most charitable way of putting it. The camaraderie there. Hey, we're a part of this community and therefore we don't want to get any of our community members in trouble is we're super loyal and are willing to allow others to break the law. I'm not allowed to break the law, but other people are allowed to break the law, so there's that. Now, generally speaking, Ilhan Omar has remained silent on the majority of the scandal. Her spokesperson has said, to be fair, she had no knowledge of this. Which leads us to the question that I posed at the beginning of this segment that we continually have to ask a bunch of our lib friends who do things like this. Now, in this particular case, this might ruffle some feathers. Personally, I kind of miss the old libs. Like, for example, Nancy Pelosi. You probably hate Nancy Pelosi. I can't stand Nancy Pelosi. I think she's wrong about everything. And I can acknowledge that she's smart. She's a tactful politician who was able to do a lot for her party. And while I disagree fervently with so many of the things that Nancy Pelosi. Pelosi has said and done, I can acknowledge that she is a smart person. It doesn't help my side to pretend that Nancy Pelosi is stupid, which is beneficial in knowing the fact that, okay, she wasn't stupid. It was just sinister. In this new age of libs, people like Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, Congresswoman aoc, all of the squad members, I just don't know. And it's harder for us to differentiate between. Between stupid and sinister, because even though all of these circumstantial evidence lines up to think, yeah, Ilhan Omar probably knew what was going on, she also seems to be fantastically stupid.

So there is the possibility that she did, which completely went right over her head. I don't happen to think that. But I will reserve the possibility of that being the case because of so many of the things that she has said have led me to believe that she is, in fact, a moron. Let us know your comments. TPTB USA.com is the email address if you'd like to weigh in. Is Congresswoman Ilhan Omar severely stupid or did she know all of this was happening right underneath her nose?

By the way, too, there's no direct links. I want to, even though I mark, even though I build myself as a comedian, I do want to. I want to hold up, uphold some journalistic integrity. Even libs just refused to do that. So I'll mention this. Omar has not yet directly been linked to the scandal. This is all circumstantial. Which again, I think leads more to the broader point. Stupid or sinister? You decide. TPTP USA.com On Monday, the U.S. house Committee and the Treasury Department launched a big investigation into whether Minnesota Governor Tim Walls had a role in the oversight of the scheme, which could have been caught much earlier. And state officials are now under aggressive scrutiny, as they should be, because this is insane. One of the biggest frauds of the American taxpayer in history. Actually, I think the biggest in history, $1 billion got stolen. The majority of those people who were convicted of fraud live in this one congressional district utility tbt pusa.com is the email. Also go subscribe to our Turning Point tonight, YouTube channel Rumble, Facebook x Instagram the hack is Joe Bob, objectively a weird name. Just type in Jo B O B. Be able to find us pretty much anywhere. Send us long your thoughts. What do you think is going on here? Is Congresswoman Ilhan Omar complicit in any of this? Or do you think she's just so disastrously dumb she, honest to God, had no idea? Coming up, going to talk about California because we're going to hit California quite a bit, especially on this episode. But more specifically, Governor Newsom is making his rounds in D.C. saying, hey, there was this big fire here. We need money. The response to that is kind of comical. From the New York Post editorial board also, ma', am, Danny, the mayor elect in New York City has hired yet another criminal to help him solve the crime in what is formerly a beautiful city of New York. And unfortunately, what I foresee happening is what so many see happening going to get worse and worse and worse. All that coming up after the break. Tptpsa.com, don't go away. We'll be right back after this.

[Joe Bob (Host of Turning Point Tonight)]

Can someone explain it to me like I'm 4 years old? Why I just paid $508 to renew my registration on an 11 year old van. And don't say anything like Gavin Newsom. No, I want to know the actual reason I had to pay $508 to renew my registration in California. Well, to give her an honest answer, it's in order to pay for the roads in California, which are pristine and in tip top condition. If you've ever driven on a road in California, you know that there are never massive potholes or just totally decrepit, degrading highways. You know for a fact that if you're driving at speeds over 70 miles an hour that the road isn't crazy bumpy because the Caltrans community denied not. That's funny, that was a Freudian slip there. I said trans and then instinctually said community. No, Caltrans, the company who is clearly in the pocket of the big libs over in California, they do a fantastic job. They never waste any money. Of course, all that is sarcastic. California has one of the worst roads in the country, but at least it's unbelievably expensive to drive them. And she said, and don't tell me Gavin Newsom lady, this, that's the answer. It's Gavin Newsom. In other states you might be rolling your eyes going, holy cow. Wait, wait, it cost $500 to register an 11 year old van? Yes, that is what it costs. My, my friend in Texas, we drive literally the exact same car. 2018 Ford F150 Big Cat. It's great. It cost me $600 to register that car here in California. My friend who has the same exact car, same mile, same everything in Texas cost him 30 bucks. So yeah, you might be around the country, wherever you are, let us know. TBTPPSA.com what does it cost to register your car? Because in California it's crazy. But again, at least the roads are terrible. Speaking of California, Governor Newsom is in Washington seeking on what he calls long overdue federal aid packages for LA fire survivors. Now I want to address this at the onset. I am in no way, shape or form trying to diminish the hardship that has been caused by these insane, insanely tragic fires. It is a, it is a horrible tragedy. And I hope that everybody who is affected by the California fires gets some sort of restitution, whether it be from their insurance company or being able to, I don't want to say sue the state because they're effectively, that's my pocket that they're going to reach into and take that money for any settlement. But at the same time, yeah, I don't want to diminish the hardship and the difficulty that those fires caused. And the question needs to be asked, well, what are you doing with the money that you do have, governor hairspray or sorry, Newsom. Newsom previously requested $40 billion from the federal government to rebuild after the devastating fires that happened earlier this year. It's been 11 months since those fires occurred. Here's the problem. California already is terrible with money. So you can see why some of people in the federal government will be very skeptical to hand Gavin another 40 billion. California operates on a budget totaling $322 billion. And the state is facing its fourth consecutive year in the red this year, specifically with an $18 billion deficit, which pause really quick. Those of you who live in California and who saw what was going on During COVID in 2020, Governor Newsom came out and said, look at this. Look, look how great we are, financially speaking. We have a budget surplus in 2020, failing to account for the fact that the federal government was just giving out money left and right and gave California an absurd amount of money which they probably threw at the teachers unions to inflate their pensions to make sure they continue to have their voting block. But at the time, Governor Newsom was saying, look at how great we are doing. We have a budget surplus. Yeah, because the federal government gave you bajillion dollars. Every year since then, they've been running a deficit. And again, I laugh, but it's also, it's kind of concerning. I, I can just feel the California government stealing more money from mine in our pocket. Producer Glenn's rolling his eyes saying, me too. Don't forget me. Don't worry, Glenn. They won't forget you. They'll, they'll steal your money as well.

Well, the question then is, well, okay, so what do they spend their money on? According to Assemblyman Carl Dio. And I laugh because it's easier than crying. $13 billion of the deficit has been attributed to spending on free health care for illegal immigrants.

Great. Thank you for that. Additionally, California this last year has allocated $50 million to specifically fight Donald Trump in administrative court.

Great. California also spent $300 million on a special election for the housing house redistricting. Great.

You, you can see why, and this is just a couple cases. You can see why people at the federal government would be a little bit leery to again sign another check for the greasy haired governor in California.

In 2021, in light of the horribly tragic fires, Capitol Public Radio found Governor Newsom had fallen short on promises to remove wildfire fuel from the state Meaning take care of all of the brush and the huge problems that present itself specifically in California. He also messed, misled the public on those efforts. Most of that was due to Gavin and the state officials adopting policies that limited what firefighters and fire prevention authorities could do regarding dangerous and endangered plants. Not dangerous plants, endangered plants and other cultural sites. In other words, knowing that California unfortunately spontaneously combusts like once a year with these massive wildfires, knowing that prior to these fires there was a huge scandal going on saying, hey, we can't do anything about these things because, well, this one plant over here might be kind of endangered and indigenous to the state of California. Therefore, we can't clear any of the brush and what, we're just gonna have to let it burn, as that's unfortunately the case. So the management of fires in California has also been bad, not even including the terrible mismanagement of funds broadly in the state of California over a five year period. If you're asking where the money went, where California's money is going, 2019, 2024, California has spent again, I laugh because it's easier than crying. $24 billion on homelessness. Now, the good news is the homelessness effort in California has been fantastically successful. Homelessness has been entirely eradicated from the state. Everyone has a sorry. Glenn is waving me. Oh, sorry. It actually appears that homelessness has gone up. So California has spent, over the course of five years, $24 billion. Yet the homeless population has increased. Oh, dang, I wonder how that happened. Wonder if it's mismanagement of finances at all. California Auditor's office has criticized the California Council on Homelessness for failing to consistently track and evaluate the ongoing costs and outcomes of this horrible waste of taxpayer dollars. But again, they need $40 billion from the federal government, which, if you don't live in California, is your tax money. Do they deserve it? TBT PSA.com Also, just to kind of pile on here.

The high speed rail, if you're not familiar with this story, we've done it quite a bit. But just a brief view on this. In 2008, California voters approved a project that was set to cost $33 billion. They approved $10 billion of bonds to make sure that this $33 billion project would get finished. That was in 2008. The railway, the high speed rail was set to be done in 2020, which of course it is. I take the high speed rail up to San Francisco all the time. It's, it's, it's, it's a breeze. It only takes an hour to get up from Los Angeles to the Bay Area and well, it was money well spent. Sorry. Glenn is shaking his head again. No, it actually hasn't been finished yet. It was set to be finished in 2020. Now the estimations are hopefully be finished in 2032. And the good news, not only is it prolonged, it's also vastly more expensive. It's now spent over $100 billion. The total cost estimates are around $200 billion. And this is also not including, we've talked about this before on the show, to the $4 billion estimated cost of the Capitol renovations, which by the way is fascist dictatorship. If, if we're going along, we're pulling the same thread that the media accused President Trump of renovating the White House. That's fascism, by the way. That's what, that's what they told you. Well, that's that fascist. That same fascism and also is also happening in the California Capitol to the tune of $4 billion. And yet Governor Newsom still maintains that California does not have any of the money to rebuild from the wildfires and is continuing to fund the high speed rail that will never exist. The illegal immigrants getting all of their free health care, the homeless population which has now increased despite $25 billion being sent spent. So the question of course is should California get this money? TBCPCA.com I but I can guess your answer. The answer is absolutely 100% they deserve it. I'm kidding. No, no, they shouldn't. Uh, just for the record here, just kind of cleaning this all up. Senator Rick Scott of Florida, Senator Ron Johnson, friend of the show of Wisconsin, are leading an investigation into the Palisade fires. Scott. Senator Scott is considering appointing a special master to oversee the fire aid.

To ensure that the federal money is being spent properly. And this is all. We didn't even mention the public. Well, sorry, not the private money, the donor money that came in from the California Fire aid concert series that nobody knows where that went either.

So in short, Governor Newsom is saying, hey, federal government, you owe us this money. He's in D.C. asking for $40 billion, saying that this is long overdue. And everybody in the federal government and you at home, if you don't happen to live in this, live in this godforsaken hellhole, are probably saying, yeah, why don't you open up your books and let's see how you spent the money in the past. That's probably a pretty good indication of how you'll spend the money in the future. Future.tptbc.com if you have any thoughts, comments, concerns about this, I have some major concerns, one being that he might actually get the money and an even further concern would be they would waste the money as they've done so much in the past. But I don't know. Who knows, California will come in later for kicking later on in the show. Segment 4 I think we're going to discuss the fact that the DOJ is suing California and a bunch of states over whether or not their voter registration practices are up to par. Spoiler alert, they're not. But next want to talk about Mam Danny? Mam Danny taps a felon who served seven years for robbing taxi drivers as a criminal legal defense or system advisor. Great.

We did salsa worker here. Got some social workers here. Look at this girl. Social worker.

Yo, look at this, look at this, man. You need social workers here.

Yo, where's a social worker when you need picking up my stepson in school, yo, you need to get some social workers here.

One of the. This is a consistent theme on the show. I, I want to, to be on the nose in terms of calling out bad ideas for them being bad ideas. But this is much more powerful. This is much more convincing for somebody who's kind of like, ah, I'm kind of, kind of paying attention to this. I don't really know what's going on, but I've heard, yeah, social workers would be good. That this type of thing is what moves those people's thinking. This is what moves their votes. Some guy who's honestly kind of in a dangerous situation watching a street brawl break out, decides to take out his phone and sarcastically say, hey, by the way, bunch of libs think that social workers would be better for this situation than the cops. Because that's what, that's what these situations need. They need a social worker to come and break down the historic childhood trauma that all of these people might have experienced and then put them in therapy and discuss whether or not their trauma responses are healthy or unhealthy. That's what this situation needs. Needs. I like this guy. Again, I commend him for being kind of a sticky situation and having the wherewithal to sarcastically ridicule and mock the terrible ideas of the libs. Speaking of libs that actually. Oh, no, that NYPD that was in New York City. And speaking of New York City, ma', am, Danny, the mayor elect has appointed a Felipe who served seven years for rob robbing NYC taxis as a criminal legal system advisor.

Great. If there's any, if there's any idea that's worse than trying to get social workers to break up violent situations, it's probably appointing felons to advise on the criminal system.

NYC mayor like Zohran Mondani. I think I'm, I'm getting my zoron. I think there's a in there that. I think Glenn is giving me a thumbs up. I think that's a correct, correct pronunciation. Has appointed a convicted felon to his transition team.

Great.

My son limit linen A rapper turned social justice activist will serve as the legal system commit. Serve on the legal system committee. Ma'. Am. Gainey created 17 committees in total to help the transition of his administration. With a point. He is a tasked with making both personal and policy recommendation. Sorry, personnel and policy recommendations. So well, I'll, I'll give you the layout of him and then, then you can go back to what his duties will be in that role. Lennon was convicted of armed robberies that took place in 1997 and 1998. He served seven years in prison. This guy is going to be making personnel and policy recommendations to Zoharan. Great. In June of 1997, Lennon was a part of a group that robbed a cab driver and hit him with a beer bottle. In March of 1998, prosecutors alleged Lennon held up a cab driver at gunpoint stealing jewelry and cash. Both taxi drivers in two of these separate situations identified him specifically like in the criminal lineup as the perpetrator at his trial. After declining a one year plea deal, Lennon was convicted in July of 1999 on weapons possession and felony robbery charges.

The. This is, this is kind of just a fun little tidbit but the conviction came just weeks before he was scheduled to appear on a rap album with Busta Rhymes and hello Cool J. That's just kind of rapper turned social activist, felon criminal now serving on the Criminal Legal system committee. So the guy that hit a cab driver over the head with a beer bottle and robbed another cab driver in separate instances at gunpoint and was found guilty on those charges and sentenced to seven years in prison is now going to be the Criminal Legal system advisor to Zoharan. Now we've said a number of times on the show that nobody is anti being a reformed individual. You can't. The redemption is always on the table. It is always a possibility.

And you can be redeemed in your personal life and go on to do great things. I don't know that this kind of past makes somebody eligible.

Ideal best suited for a role advising the mayor of the biggest city in the country on the criminal legal system. I just, I just don't think that's the case specifically and particularly too because one, he didn't take the plea deal and two, to this day he maintains his innocence despite being pulled out of a lineup by both of the cab drivers. Like oh no, that, that, that's him. And being convicted by a jury of his peers. This guy still says no, no, no, I, I didn't do it, it wasn't me. So therefore, you know I, I, basically what I'm saying is it does not appear that this guy has even confessed to his sins and atoned for them. He's just saying, no, I didn't do that. That's all fake. The justice system is bogus, by the way. I'm gonna advise the mayor on all of these things. He also has some other massive concerns here, things that he has said that I, I now.

It doesn't matter. It's, it's too long to get into. He's got some ties to Louis Farrakhan, he's got, he's got some other really wonky things in his past. And Zohar on, by the way, this is not the only guy that has marking major concerns. We talked about this guy Alex Vitali, who is an anti cop. We need to ascend from the ability to need cops, which if you're going at that from a religious standpoint, it's easier to make the case. In that case, he is not, by the way. But the only places that you don't need cops are in heaven. So maybe if that were the tact that you were taking, I would at least, I would disagree, but I would at least understand that point from a religious, philosophical standpoint. But yeah, that's, that's, these are the guys that he's got serving around him. Zohar. There's a couple other people. We don't have necessarily time to get into it. Uh, coming up, the DOJ is interestingly enough, taken some, taken some swings at a bunch of different states for failing to provide their voter registration roles, which is a big problem in the state of Corruptifornia. I told you California was going to come in for a kicking yet again. So we'll get to that coming up after the break. As well as your emails in segment five. Got a bunch of fun emails from, from yesterday that are.

We'Ll save until we get to them. Tbtpc.com is the email. If you'd like to have a shot at having your email read here on the show. TPTP USA.com do you have thoughts on any of the things we've talked about? Did Ilhan Omar know about the rampant fraud that was primarily happening in her district? Will Governor Newsom be effective and efficient with money from the federal government? Should he get that money? Will Zoharan be blindsided by his own team when they recommend, hey, we should just release all of the criminals, just let them all go. That's, that's how we should operate in the largest city in this country. Any thoughts on any of those issues. TBTBSA.com also go subscribe to our YouTube channel where we are growing by leaps and bounds. Also Rumble X, Facebook, all the social media platforms. The hack is just type in job O B. It is a weird name objectively speaking, but it is advantageous for being able to find things on social media and not getting lost in all of the other things that, I don't know, maybe similarly named might be confusing. Jo B O B. You know, if it's a, if it's a brown guy with a hillbilly Alabama backwoods name, you know, it's turning point tonight. We'll be right back after the break to discuss the DOJ going after some of these voter fraud, well, alleged voter fraud schemes in some of these big states. We'll be right back after the break. Don't go away.

Nice shirt. You have a cigarette? I. I don't have a cigarette. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Man. You. You became real normal the second I started talking. Fist bum.

[Ryan Reynolds (Mint Mobile Advertiser)]

You got a buck?

[Joe Bob (Host of Turning Point Tonight)]

I. I don't have anything. I promise you but hey, nice shirt. They're paid actors. They're paid actors. They, they choose to tweak. He chose. He just. Hey, he has a cigarette. Holy. What was that? That guy's got his hand down his pants. Looks like a crazy. Well, is a crazy person screaming on the side of the street. Hey, like, oh, hey, thanks, by the way, do you have a cigarette? What? I again, you know, everybody who is getting benefits from the government totally definitely needs it has. Can't get their act together whatsoever unless they stop you on the street and ask you for a cigarette. Wow. I have to believe that's in California. Do we know that? I don't know that. That looks like California. That looks like downtown la. And it looks like the type of person that is walking around downtown la, which is why I never go to downtown la. Producer Glenn is nodding his head. He never goes to downtown la also because that's, that's asking for trouble. But maybe it isn't because maybe some of them are freaking faking it just to get my money.

But I can probably guarantee you that guy is registered to vote and probably has a high propensity voting record because people play. People in states like California tend to have those sorts of things. Which is why DOJ sues California and 11 other states for failing to provide voter registration rolls. The U.S. department of justice has sued 12 states, including California, for violating the National Voter Registration act of 1993. Acting Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dillon, friend of the show Shout out. Harmeet, thank you so much for doing what you do. Stated, accurate voter registration rules are the foundation of fair and secure elections. I've said this a number of times on this show. Just want to reiterate it here. Does it matter who wins elections? Yes. But what actually matters more is whether or not people believe in those elections. If people don't believe the elections, you've effectively lost the country. Now you can also lose the country by continuing to elect radical libs, because that's disastrous for what the American experiment was meant to be. But at least that's a slower process and you can fight back through electoral ideological shifts. But what you can't come back from is people just not believing the vote. And one of the ways that you don't believe the vote is you have scandals like this where California does not purge their voter rolls. There was a story that, geez, I did back in 2018 when I was running a gubernatorial campaign that saw 300 people registered to vote in the state of California at an address that was a vacant dirt parking lot. This is the thing that's happened consistently in the state of California because they don't purge their voter rolls. My dad passed away in the fall of 2022. He continued. I, I have to check. I, you know, I, I don't know. No, they did send out ballots on. I'll have to ask my mom if he's still getting ballots because up till 2024, I believe he was still getting ballots sent to the house. Now, because we're honest American citizens, we did not participate in submitting that vote. But I can confidently tell you that my dad was getting ballots up until the most recent big election. And I'm super curious if he got one this cycle and we'll be super curious to see if he gets one next cycle. But he has been pat. He's passed several elections. Passed and was still getting votes. Anyways, back to this. The core allegations here is the DOJ claims that these states have not made reasonable efforts to remove ineligible voters. Exactly what I'm saying. Deceased, moved or felons from their voter rolls. That also reminds me another friend of mine, I think I mentioned him in the. He moved to Texas. Him and his wife moved to Texas. There they still get forwarded mail to their new address in Texas with election material. But they, they, they moved 20, 23, I think two years ago, three years ago and still get. Are clearly. I probably should check. I think they're still registered in the state of California even though they moved, even though they did all those things the right way.

California had approximately 22.9 million registered voters. Okay, well, what does that actually mean? There's 40 million people in the state. Compare that to the voting population, which is about 25.7 million voters as of the 2024 general election.

That is an unbelievably high percentage of people registered to vote, given the participation rate and the turnout rate. And I am not one of those people that thinks we need everybody's vote. I think if you have no idea what's going on, do the American thing and don't vote. So there's that. But that's an unbelievably high percentage of people who are registered to vote. California has not conducted comprehensive canvases to identify and remove ineligible voters since 2018. That is what the DOJ is accusing California of. Um, there's a bunch of other things going on here. Bottom line here, because we're running out of time, is that the DOJ looks like it's going to hopefully straighten some of these states out. And I can almost guarantee you elections will look a lot different if these states purge their voter rolls and don't allow people to not even allow people don't give the opportunity for votes to be cast from dead's people. There's a there's a hilarious joke at the risk of running on too long that says.

My my dad voted for for a Democrat for the first time in his life in this last election. That would have never happened if he was still alive.

And it's been a joke for a very long time because somehow libs tend to corral votes on of people who have who have since passed and those people still vote in those elections.

It wasn't pickpocketed when I was in Europe, but my plan, if it came to it, was to tackle. These are soccer players. They don't know what it's like to be tackled.

[Kerrygold Butter Advertiser]

They don't understand.

[Joe Bob (Host of Turning Point Tonight)]

I mean, I weigh as much as two, maybe three Europeans. Four if they're girls. All right? All they eat is cigarettes and red wine, and I'm eating processed food that is illegal in their country that's caused me to be refrigerator sized. I'm going to. To tackle them, and I'm not getting up until I get my stuff back and possibly any of the cool knickknacks in their pockets. Okay, here, here's what we should do. We should pull our money together. Maybe we'll set this up on our website. We should pull our money together, pay for this guy to go back to Europe and act as bait to see. We'll just have him like, hey, we're going to buy you a couple cell phones. We want you to have them, like sticking half out of your pocket. Because I want to run this experiment. I want to see what happens when that guy goes up against some Europeans. I weigh as much as two or three Europeans. Even more if they're girls. I love that. That has nothing to do with that. That's just fun. Let's get some emails. TPT tbsa.com is the email address on the topic of Samoa yesterday. We talked yesterday about the island nation where my dad came from before immigrating to the United States. Bruce says, hey, Joe, Bob, how does one go about immigrating to Samoa? Sounds like the only place left to go as long as they keep the liberals and the. The Dems out. That's great. That's a good question. Unfortunately, it's very, very difficult. They have strict immigration laws. I don't actually know that for a fact, Bruce, but I would imagine, I would imagine they'd be welcoming. Like, like we mentioned yesterday, Samoa is by its constitution, a Christian nation. Not like a, hey, we are founded on Christian principles. It's like, no, we believe in Christianity and that's the way the government is oriented. So. Good question, Bruce. Maybe I'll look into that. Darren said this. You said you don't know why so many in. So many Somalis are in Minnesota. I do. The Lutheran social services are why they have so many in their state. I don't know. I don't know how to Take that. I'm not necessarily knocking the Lutheran church, but also if yeah, you have a bunch of charities that are getting money. I don't know what the intermingling of them and the government is, but I can see if you have more quote unquote charities out there. Even though I'm a proponent of churches being these soul benefit soul charity organizations out there. Yeah. Interesting, interesting comment, Darren. Dave says this. I was watching your segment yesterday about all the celebs who left and want to come back. I Ellen DeGeneres, we did that show yesterday, segment three. If you want to check it out, go to turning point tonight's YouTube channel to check out Ellen who left the country and is now coming back because it's cold. He said this. I've been saying this for many years. If even half of the Hollywood types that said they would leave the country if Bush got elected had actually kept their promises, we wouldn't be in the mess we're in now. That is an astute observation, Dave. If half of the libs who said I'm leaving this country if a conservative gets elected to the presidency actually did it and therefore forfeited their right to vote in American elections, we wouldn't be in this position to begin with. If they had left before Obama, maybe we wouldn't have had Obama. If they had left before Biden, maybe we wouldn't have had to endure that. Maybe Donald Trump wouldn't have had to run for President of the United States of America. I'm glad he did. I am thankful that he has put his life as a Manhattan billionaire, his luxury life on hold to try and save the country. But maybe that wouldn't have been necessary if all those freaking libs who threatened to leave the country if Bush got elected actually did it.

Great point, Dave. TPTBC.com is the email address if you'd like to send along your thoughts, comments, concerns, criticisms. We're doing this in the last segment bag. The only chance you can get to the the chance of getting reads tptbc.com Also, if your email is vile, disgusting, bigoted and horrible, you actually have a better chance of being read here in Turning Point tonight. That's going to do it for us here at Turning Point tonight. Really appreciate you sticking around, tuning in. Go subscribe to our Turning Point Tonight YouTube channel. We will see you same time, same place tomorrow. God bless America.
