Welcome back to the Oscars. Now presenting for the nominees for best global theater, I'd like to welcome Mr. Netanyahu. Hello, America. As you can tell, I'm a little busy these days. Let's take a look at the nominees for best global theater. Nominees for best global theater. Jeff Epstein for his main role in don't leave Me hanging. Hillary Clinton for her main role until the cows come home. And the winner is. Nobody. Everybody loses. We all got bruises.
Brandon Gill
Good night.
Benny Johnson
So we're building. The six Fingered Netanyahu is my favorite meme probably of the weekend. Until we saw this beautiful gem from last night, man, I had no idea this was even a category. Greatest immigration hoax. Here we go, ladies and gentlemen. You might. Did you catch this one? You might have missed this one here. Here we go. And the Oscar for best performance in fooling US immigration for a visa goes to. Ilhan Omar. This role took real commitment. The chemistry with my co star brother fooling those immigration officers. Pure method acting. This is for every pirate, I mean dreamer. Somalia, I love you. Today is Monday, March 16, 2026. We are feeling good. The Oscars last night bombed and we're winning. We are actually storming the ramparts of Hollywood. We are. We are inside of the castle walls. We've done it. We are toppling the synagogue of Satan. We are going to take down the entire machine, ladies and gentlemen. I can't believe it. I cannot believe what happened last night where you have a once child sacrificing. For my Golden Idol speech category, Michelle Williams in 2000 gave a literal speech about how she needed abortions in order to get her Golden Globes. Fast forward to last night and the winner of best actress gave this unbelievable shout out to family and motherhood and her children and the power of being a parent and loving your children and the challenge that it is for mothers every single day and how uplifting and wonderful it is. I just, I can't believe it. We're inside the city walls. We've breached the diseased church of Hollywood and I don't know, are we winning like a little bit. Are. Can a boy dare to dream? Can I. Can a white boy just dare to dream? I don't know. We'll find out today with Brandon Gill, a white boy that dreamed of being the bassist member of Congress. And I think he's succeeding in that. He'll comment on what we think about the Oscars making a crack about Turning Point usa. Turning Point USA shouted out last night and I don't mind it. I love Turning Point usa. I'm doing a new tour with Turning Point usa. And I, I didn't mind the joke joke one bit. I thought it was hilarious, actually. I thought it was a massive cultural shout out to the power of what we are doing inside of the side of the landscapes of Hollywood and entertainment. So I didn't mind it one bit. You're not gonna find me offended. Is Cuba collapsing right now? President Trump said that perhaps this week we will be announcing a Cuba takeover. Oh, yeah, baby, we're cooking. We're cooking. A lot of muling, complaining and bitching speeches last night, the Oscars. Remarkable how they didn't mention once Iran. They didn't mention once Venezuela. They didn't mention once Cuba. They didn't mention any of the people suffering under communist totalitarian dictatorships. Oh, they had a little shout out to North Korea though. Very interesting. Ladies and gentlemen, Buck Sexton will also join the program. My name is Benny Johnson and this is the Benny Show. Patriot Mobile is where you don't want to watch the Oscars.

Okay, I, I want to, I want to jump over to something that I think frames all of this up beautifully is the fraudulence of Hollywood and how they kind of like beautifully proved it in a leaked photograph from yesterday. And I think that this is great because Hollywood is famous for this really special. I'm gonna send it to you client. Actually, I didn't put in the show notes. Do you have the indie? Do you have the Indian? Do you have the Indian ad? No, no, no, no. Indian single tier hat. Yeah. Is search Indian single tier ad on YouTube. Anybody who's perhaps like, well versed in American advertising. Here it is, client. You can just pop it up here. Anybody who's well versed in American advertising will. Will, of course, remember, perhaps you were around to actually see this on TV. It aired originally in 1970. So this is one of the more most famous ads ever created by Hollywood. It involves an Indian, of course, the Indian that none of these Hollywood celebrities, they'll give land acknowledgments to this Indian, but they'll never actually give him his land back. Right? That's where. That's where my pool house sits. Indian get off my land engine. Right, like this. You can play it. You can just play it. You just turn the volume down. There's. There's no. No words are spoken. So you just play it. So this is the famous. This is the famous Hollywood Indian ad. By the way, this. This. This actor appeared on stage at the Oscar. Oscars before. The actor is actually Italian and not native American, which I think is hilarious. But anyway, yeah, it could have been Alx as the Indian, you know, get a bed. It could have been Alx. It could have been Danny. I have no idea if Danny's Italian. I'm not sure. I don't. I don't know. You don't know? You know, he's back. He's passing. He's passing. All right, he's passing. But look, the Indian, he finds all his trash. Oh, no. This used to be his land. He was such a piss for Indian. And then he walks out to the highway and watches Whitey throwing his McDonald's bag out the window. And the Indian's crying because he sees the price of a big Mac today in 2026, that's what. He's crying. He's good. So that single Indian tear from the Italian Indian, which he's wearing his famous Sicilian garb, right? This is how they dress in the old country, anyway. Yeah, I think the. Am I. Is that right, boys? Is that right, Chat? Is it right? This is an Italian actor. It's not actually an Indian. It's so. So I think this is like the funniest part of the story. But anyway, Hollywood made this. It's a banger when every advertising award it won. Huge plot. Is that played during the Oscars? Everyone in Hollywood, like, this change that's like, started the whole, like, like, don't be a litter bug movement. Famous, famous, famous, famous.
Brandon Gill
His real name is.
Benny Johnson
Okay, well, that ain't. That ain't an Indian name. His name is Espera. Oscar de Corti. Okay, well, is he Italian? He legally changed his name to Iron. He changed his name to an Indian name legally. What's his legal name? He's Sicilian. I called it. He's Sicilian. Okay, He's Sicilian. Okay, so what. What did he change his name to? Iron Eyes Cody. Okay, so this Italian actor changed his name to an Indian. Okay, first off, that's like the first layer of fraudulence in Hollywood, right? All the fake names. But then. Here we go. This is great. This is a really, really great one. Oh, baby. So this Indian's walking around, looking at. Looking at, like, here, look at this. Here he is on the beach, right? If you could go to that, like that little. That beach frame right there. It's at 3. 41. It's very important to get this frame. Yeah, there you go. So here he is on the beach, and he's looking at all the trash on the beach. He's very, very sad, this Hollywood Italian, Sicilian Indian. And here, ladies and gentlemen, fast forward to today 36 years later, right? 56 years later. Sorry. And you have, well, the Hollywood studio that looks actually more filthy than the beach that the Indian was crying over. The fake Italian Indian. This is. This is what Hollywood left last night. What went on there in that green area with the green carpeted area client. What is that exact. What is all the schmutz on the ground? Like, what were these people doing? Yeah, exactly. Yeah, that's exactly right. These are the Epstein people. So you don't want to know. These are the Diddy. This is probably where the Diddy baby oil was. This is the Diddy oil party section. Oh, it's gross. Look at the filth. Look at this. You ever been to, like, a ball game in, like, a really bad part of town and, like, a really skeezy stadium? They don't look like this. This is at the Dobie Theater. This is inside of the nicest theater in all of Hollywood. Hollywood's wrecked, by the way. Just trash. The Hollywood walk of fame is just disgusting filth and skis. But, like, this reflects, you know. Yeah, that's like just one dude. That's right, one dude. One poor Guatemalan is sitting there tasked with picking up after the climate change people. Look at this leaked photo of the aftermath of the Oscars. How disgusting. And these ain't just the cheap seats because these are like the. These are. This is inside of the theater. This is like the famous. The famous Chinese theater, the famous. The famous Oscars. You've seen it all. Look at this. It's disgusting. These people are filthy inside and out. And that's what they proved last night. I'm not only. I'm only belaboring this point because, you know, all you need to do is just scratch the layer like one bit. You need to just peel the onion layer back just one bit. Just get rid of like one layer of makeup and you'll see how hideous these chicks are. You'll see how grotesque these people, how fake they are, what frauds they are. These are the frauds, ladies and gentlemen, leaving filth and trash in the audience and on stage with the exception of one speech. And we'll get to that in just a moment, ladies and gentlemen. Conan o' Brien was the host. I don't know, man. Do we like Conan o'? Brien? Klein. I don't know. I gotta. Please don't. Please don't cancel me. He's the best of worst of all. I was gonna say, of all the late night hosts, I think Conan o' Brien is probably like. And not because he's not politically liberal. No doubt he is. But I think that he's so conscious of his own career and he's so smart about how to play it. He's decided not to go, like, he's decided not to go full. Never go full retard. Right? Like, he just, he decided not to do that. Never go full retard. Yeah. He's taking The Robert Downey Jr. In blackface advice and he's decided to, like, stay, you know, stay like centrist, tired of partisan noise. America's more divided than ever, but independent Americans is adding light to contrast all that heat. Independent Americans Daily News with army veteran Paul Rykoff. Pressing issues of the day with leaders who are shaping what America will be in the future. We're going to bring the righteous media five eyes. Independence, integrity, information, inspiration and impact. Join the movement. Independent Americans from Believe, follow and listen on your favorite platform. It's like center of the road, like middle of the road generally. And he made a joke last night about Turning Point, you know, which I thought was very interesting. So contrast this with the joke that Jimmy Kimmel made about Charlie Kirk's death, where he lies about Charlie Kirk's death. He victim blames Charlie Kirk. He makes a grotesque misrepresentation about who killed Charlie, what ideology killed Charlie. And then he got ripped off the air in no small part because we brought on the FCC commissioner and started like banging the drum to like, you know, to get that movement going. And boy, sure, how, boy, howdy, did it go Conan instead makes a joke about TPUSA that actually is more of a. More of a compliment, albeit a backhanded one. He says the Turning Point USA Oscars is going to be hosted down the road at Dave and Buster's. And Kid Rock's going to be there, which sounds like an awesome night. Don't you want to go play dodgeball with Kid Rock at the Dave and Busters and drink some Coors Lights, like, and eat some pizza? That sounds awesome. Actually, go play some pool. I don't know what. I don't know what else is out of Dave and Buster's. That's like air hockey. Like adult Chuck E. Cheese. Right? Adult Chuck E. Cheese. Yeah. Go play Buck Hunt. Okay. Can you think of a better Saturday night? Well, I mean, like, at home with my family, I have little kids, and so that's, like, where I spend all my Saturday nights. But if I, like, back when I was single or back when I didn't have any kids, I think this would be an awesome Friday night to go play Buck Hunter with Kid Rock, sipping Coors Light and eating cheap pepperoni pizza at a Dave and Buster's. Sounds awesome. Anyway, here's the joke that Conan made. He said this. The. The alternate Oscars is being hosted down the road, which is amazing. Warn you tonight could get political. Okay. And if that makes you uncomfortable, there's an alternate Oscars being hosted by Kid Rock. Yeah, it's at the Dave and Buster's down the street.
Brandon Gill
Street.
Benny Johnson
A lot of tickets for that. I like. What am I supposed to be offended by this? You know what's great about this is that it shows a couple of things. One, cultural permanence. It shows that what we did during the super bowl halftime show stuck and that it also scared the elites because they wouldn't be even. You know how expensive it is to even get into one of these jokes, right? To even, like, be said in a joke from the Oscars, to be mentioned in this, you know, this sort of hot, you know, high church, diseased temple, whatever you want to call it, like, to be even mentioned from this, like, the. The melting pot of the cultural ethos, which is the Oscars, if you want to leave, even considered that, but, like, let's just go with it. For them to, like, shout out Turning Point USA and the Kid Rock halftime show. That's a massive win. That's hilarious. Everyone was laughing. It didn't cringe. It was funny. I think that's great. It proves exactly how powerful that performance was, that concept is, and that we've won culture, and there's other major cultural wins. Let's continue. Conan o' Brien made a legitimate Jeffrey Epstein joke. Some could say that he's, like, making this joke about Donald Trump. Okay. You could also say that he's making the joke about the people in the audience. He's no Ricky Gervais. Ricky Gervais actually posted. I'm not sure if this is in the. In the show, but Ricky Gervais was asked whether he'd host the Oscars, and he said, f that, but we're all rooting for it. But anyway, here's a poor man's Ricky Gervais Epstein joke. Kind of funny. It's the first time since 2012. First time since 2012 that there are no British actors nominated for. For best actor or best actress.
Brandon Gill
Yeah.
Benny Johnson
British spokesperson said, yeah, well, at least we arrest our pedophiles. So we got that going. Okay, so wait a second. Are you saying there's no actors nominated because they're all pedophiles and they've all been arrested? Is that your take? And then, like, it's also, like, kind of a knock at the Hollywood crowd because, like, well, you're here and you're not arrested. The Ricky Gervais version of that is like, you were all friends with Jeffrey Epstein. You all killed him. You had to come here on your own plane. Like, don't laugh. You know, don't be mad at me. Right. He was your friend. That's like the Ricky Gervais version of that. Way better, but still, I appreciate a little bit of the chin music. I appreciate it. Okay, fine. Let's keep rolling. Oh, boy, Here we go. Conan makes a dick joke about Trump. Okay, so you have all these teams of writers. You have hundreds of writers. You know, the comedians don't write their own jokes, and this is the best that they can come up with when it comes to, like, let's go right at Trump. Let's go straight at Trump. Okay, here we go. Coming to you live from the. Has a small penis theater. Let's see him put his name in front of that. Never go full retard. You can see. You can even see. You can even see Conan at the end there. So here we go. So, like, played. Play the last, like, three seconds with the. Like with the tepid. With the tepid laughter. And you can see his head, like, twitch to the side where he's like, yeah, it didn't work.
Brandon Gill
Right?
Benny Johnson
It didn't work. Okay. All right. And just to prove that Hollywood. I mean, I'm not here to give Hollywood any credit. Hollywood doesn't deserve any credit. Nobody saw any of the movies. Nobody. Did you see one battle after another? Of course you didn't. Did you see Sinners? No, you didn't. Do you see any of the movies that, like, allegedly won? No. Nobody even knows who the people are on stage anymore. It's totally irrelevant. Hollywood doesn't make stars anymore. They don't make any good stories. I was really angry that Angel Studios, like David and King of Kings, those are two incredible animated features that should have been nominated. And I'm gonna actually talk with Angel Studios today about, like, how do we get one of these nominated? Because, like, these movies are making a ton of money. They're doing great in theaters. They're driving, like, actual foot traffic to the theaters. So stupid. Like, why aren't they nominated? Like, Hollywood should be embracing David. They should be embracing Angel Studios. Anyway, the. The best. The Disney lost again for the fourth year in a row. It's crazy. So, Holly, like, on some levels, like, there are some very interesting things that are happening. The. The least interesting thing, the last clip I'll play for you from Conan, I guess, is the Russian jokes. Oh, man. Okay. So they make a trump dick joke, and then they make a Trump Russia joke just to prove that everything is, like, kind of trapped in 2021. Here we go. You know, Anora is having a good night. Yeah, that's great. Yeah, that's great news. Two wins already. I guess Americans are excited to see somebody finally stand up to a powerful Russian. Our. Wow. Wow. Evil Russians, Evil white people. Yeah, we get it. The Russians are always evil. The white people in every movie are all evil. You're right. The only way a white person can ever be good is if. Is if a minority. We'll talk about this in just a second. Would you put these on, please? Thank you very much. Also, what I'm going to need is, like, what percentage of the population of the earth is white? Exactly. Like, can we. Can we pull these? Because we're going to talk about Oscar's diversity quota. Let's go into the worst. The worst. So he's going to make. Give me a grok breakdown of, like, what percentage of the world's black? What percentage of the world's, like, Asian? Whatever you define that as what percentage of the world's Indian. Right. Like what. Like, what is the. What is the racial breakdown of the earth? And we're going to, like, call out Holly, like, at its core, just like that Conan joke. Like, so lazy. Like, Russians are evil in every Hollywood movie. The white people are evil. In fact, here are the rules for getting a nomination at the Oscars. The rules go like this. You have to include an underrepresented ethnic group. Now, so often Hollywood will lecture you with these little buzzwords like cultural blindness. You're culturally blind. You have cultural blindness. You have bias. Because you're only viewing things like an American would view them. You're only viewing things the way that, like your bigoted and biased American centric ideology views the Earth. And so while. While white people are barely a majority here in America, we have to include underrepresented racial or ethnic groups for our global audience. This is a little interesting. What is a global audience exactly? Because they. They list an underrepresented racial or ethnic group as a black person or an African or a Chinese or Japanese or Korean person or a Hispanic person or an indigenous person, perhaps an Italian or a Sicilian. But the crazy thing is that that's actually the vast majority of the world. The vast majority of the Earth. Like white people are a vanishing actual minority on Earth. If you were looking for representation of an actual underrepresented group on Earth, then you'd have white people in every single role in every movie. Because we're actually the. We're actually the va. The. The least. Let's see. Okay, here's the findings. All right, here we go. Here's the finding. This is interesting. Asians make up 59% of the Earth. Klein, Wong over here. Literally wonging it out. Wonging out. Okay, Asians. So many jokes inappropriate for the stream. Okay, we're gonna not extract. We're not gonna continue the wonging out joke. Okay, reel it back in. Asians are 60% of the globe. Hollywood lists Asians as an underrepresented minority group. Wow. Would you look at that? That's 60% of the Earth. If you had black people, then you have 75% of the globe is either black or Asian. And I assume Asian is putting Indian people. They're including Indians and Asians together. Okay, fine. It's great. What would be considered the technical definition? Okay, so blacks and Asians are 75% of Earth. Whites are 10, Latinos are 8. Like, whatever. Okay, so approximately the same as whites and other indigenous, you know, Arab, whatever. 6 to 8%. Okay, so if you were actually looking for an underrepresented minority, you'd have a lot more Latino and Arab and Sicilian Indians. You would not have any more. In fact, you'd ban black people and Asian people from being in Movies. If you were looking at. If you were looking at. But specifically Asian people and Indian people. If you were looking at cutting, like. Like making sure that the majority is not dominant culturally over all the rest of us, you'd make sure that they were. No more Asians and Indians in any movie. Okay? And if you ever watch Bollywood, it's fine, but fine by me. I never seen that stuff. I mean, it's crazy. Like, you know, it's like, what? Like, dude, it's 2A. It's 2:00am you know, my kids bed up and crying. And you're like sitting there and you're like, all right, what am I gonna do to pass the time? You know, you, like, you find yourself. You find yourself in a clickhole and you're like, oh, look at this Bollywood action sequence. Whoa. Okay, the guy just ate a machine gun. Anyway, the point is, is that Hollywood, this, I mean, this is so brain dead. This is the. The absolute worst of Hollywood. The absolute worst is this. And these are the rules. This level of legitimate brain dead virtue signaling. Here we go. General ensemble cast. 30% of all actors must also be women. You know what's funny, Klein, is that there's actually a lot more women on Earth than there are men. Isn't that interesting? Underrepresented groups, women. You know, it's like the earth's like 53% women, 48% men. You know, it's the breakdown, I think, partly because women just live longer than men. I think there's like old. You know, it's like older women. Right, exactly. So. But they call that underrepresented. Do you know what those percentiles mean? I mean, that means hundreds of millions of people. There's like 9 billion people on Earth. So there's hundreds of millions of more women, racial or ethnic group people with cognitive or physical disabilities. Okay, great. So I could be. I could be in one of these Hollywood roles. Hollywood could cast me. Hey, Hollywood, you want an easy Oscar? Cast me. Cast me And Jerry. Cast me and Jerry. You. You want a real banger, Hollywood, you can recast me and Jerry. Dumb and dumber. He knows all the Jim Carrey lines. And you, you'll get your Oscar, right? Because you'll be able to tick your little box. They ticked the box of having Jimmy Kimmel. Jimmy Kimmel. You can't have an award show in Hollywood with Jimmy Kimmel unannounced. I mean, the guy has like an ankle bracelet on, right? To keep him 100ft away from every award show, he has a restraining order. But now, like, he, like, breaks in and Jimmy Kimmel runs on stage in order to give some mewling, crying, weeping about authoritarian regimes, of all people. Authoritarian regimes from the Oscars stage that says that Asians are an underrepresented minority. Talk that talks about racial quotas in their movies. Democrats talking about Jim Crow 2.0. It's literally Jim Crow. It's like 2/3 of a person. This is like the great compromise. Like what? Like what. What does a black vote cost? Like, like they're talking racial quotas in Hollywood in the year 2026. This is the law. These are the rules. And Jimmy Kimmel is calling someone else authoritarian. Who is authoritarian? CBS got it, Jimmy. Here we go.
Brandon Gill
As you know, there are some countries whose leaders don't support free speech. I'm not at liberty to say which.
Benny Johnson
Let's just leave it at North Korea and cbs. Fortunately, he's so stunning and brave. Fortunately for all of us, there is an Internet community of filmmakers dedicated to
Brandon Gill
telling the truth, oftentimes at great risk
Benny Johnson
to make films that teach us that
Brandon Gill
aspire us to take action. And there are also documentaries where you walk around the White House trying on shoes.
Benny Johnson
Okay, so a couple of things. Has anybody considered putting Jimmy Kimmel in a movie? Because it would make you Oscar nomination worthy. You'd be able to qualify. Just as long as Jimmy Kimmel did his blackface. You could put Jimmy Kimmel in a movie and qualify for an Oscar as long as he's able to dust off the old shoe polish like he did earlier in his career, back when comedy was legal. Amazing how Jimmy Kimmel doesn't get canceled. It's incredible what happens here. This is why I call it a diseased. A diseased temple, a diseased church Hollywood. Because in order to make your bones in Hollywood in the 90s and in the early aughts, you had to do, like, actual comedy. Now that that's not allowed anymore. Guys like Jimmy Kimmel just have to continually do humiliation rituals and sacrifices in order to, like, apologize and not get actually canceled. The second that Hollywood decides to cancel Jimmy Kimmel, this is what's actually the point of Jimmy Kimmel. The point of Jimmy Kimmel is you can just get rid of him if he gets out of line. And we proved that, actually. But if Hollywood ever just, like, dusted off the old Jimmy Kimmel play reel and decided to put up this old Karl Malone video, like, he also does a bunch of, like, Oprah blackface and a bunch of other, like, like a ton of other. What would be Considered offensive. Skits. It's just skits. It's funny. It's just comedy. But, yeah, they could destroy the guy. Like, the moment they decided to actually activate against Jimmy Kimmel, it. Destroy him. So that's value. That means control, right? That's leverage and compromise. Just the Epstein system, Right? The system that Epstein built. Jimmy Kimmel calling out cbs, but not calling out Venezuela as a corrupt communist dictatorship. Cuba, Iran. Amazing. Amazing how Jimmy Kimmel has decided to attack only America like he does here. Exhausted. Am I exhausted by the state of the world and knowing every night you've
Brandon Gill
got to say something Looking in my face.
Benny Johnson
Yes, I'm exhausted.
Brandon Gill
Of course it's ridiculous. We live in a ridiculous country. We always lived in a ridiculous country, but it was always ridiculous in a fun Mr. T kind of way. Right now we've got a different Mr. T. Yeah.
Benny Johnson
Mr. Tupperware.
Brandon Gill
Wow.
Benny Johnson
I didn't think of it as a Mr. T. Well, you know what? That's. That's why I had to host this.
Brandon Gill
Are you scared?
Benny Johnson
No, I'm not scared. No, I'm not scared. You're hopeful. Am I hopeful?
Brandon Gill
I don't. I'm always hopeful. Yeah.
Benny Johnson
Yeah. Yeah. I'm always hopeful. Hmm. Okay, so the guy that gargles formaldehyde before every single interview is sitting there uncomfortably close to Jimmy Kimmel, spitting in his face, spitting in each other's faces, talking about how much they hate America, how scared, how scared they are. Wearing what has to be a $5,000 tuxedo. Great. Just so much fear. So much fear. So much scaredness. I noticed there was a shockingly absent nail acts. Correct me if I'm wrong here, but I noticed if there's a shockingly absent amount of activism against law enforcement last night, and that was. That's funny, Klein. Pop that up. White people be like, gotta help. Gotta help them. Helpless minorities, 8% of the world. Yeah, that's right. White people be like, oh, no. Oh, no. The minorities. How can we. How can we possibly. How can we possibly help them? I don't think I. Like, there was no. Shockingly, there was very little activism against cops, police, the military, ice. Alx said there might have been, like, a little hint of it, but, like. But actually not. And, okay, so maybe somebody wore, like, a little pin. But, like, when it came to muling, Griping speeches. When it came to, like, the muling. Oh, and this is. This is Paul. You. Everybody should follow Paul's account. Paul's great big shout out to Paul. Yeah, yeah, Paul, go ahead and show Go ahead and show the profile. It's the. Chris is like a fantastic breaking news account. There you go, Paul. I'm just going to say. I'm just going to say Polish, Polish last name. We're going to call him Paul Polish. Why. Why was there so little activism against cops? Well, because the Oscars is under bomb threat. The Oscars were being threatened by the Iranians. They apparently was going to be some type of drone bomb that was flown into the Oscars. I didn't advocate for it. I'm not trying to make a light of it. I don't want that to ever happen to anybody, no matter how much I disagree with them. But that was the reports that they were going to fire a drone from a boat and the drone might have hit. The Oscars would be very high value target. You know, obviously, if you're trying to make a point, the eyes of the world watching. And so they ratcheted up the police presence and protection to 11. There were cops everywhere, Secret Service, the FBI, probably ICE agents, but just like to be an extra law enforcement presence. They. They were, they were everywhere. And so it's remarkable how the moment that Hollywood feels under threat, they go back to calling the same police that they called for being defunded just a few short minutes ago. Okay, the. The last final humiliation ritual before we get to the really good stuff is the YouTube joke because the Oscars is going to be streaming on YouTube exclusively starting in 2029. Okay. All right. What does this mean for us? What does it mean for our programming? Alx. What does it mean? We get to. Does it mean we get to like, announce a category? What does this mean exactly? What do we get to do now? We have to get now some special privileges. Okay, here we go. This was actually kind of funny here. Let's go. Oscars roasting themselves starting in 2029. Did you know this? Instead of ABC, the Oscars are going to air solely on YouTube. Yeah, it's the future. Yes. Big change. Some people are worried this will change how the Oscars are viewed. But I've been assured that there will no for be pro tactical flashlights up to 2500 of brightness conveniently packed into a handheld flashlight. The same flashlight that killed Finn Martin. Come on. That's kind of funny. Sorry about that, but like I said, I don't think this is going to change the Oscars at all. I think think this is a.
Brandon Gill
Have you been injured in the tactical flashlight related incident?
Benny Johnson
You may be eligible for compensation. Don't let big tactical flashlight get the better of you. I like that they use the same actors. Okay. Poor Jane Lynch. All right, ladies and gentlemen, the Oscars are suffering. The ratings, no doubt, were probably through the floor. The Oscars are horribly in debt, as is Hollywood. Not a great place to be. You don't want to be in debt. Call my friends at American Financing to get out of debt. Give American Financing a shot. Because, well, in this current environment, you want to be nimble, you want to be as debt free as possible, and you want to make sure that you are outside of what I would call usury and illegal rates of credit card interest, like 20 and 30%. An enormous amount of Americans are suffering under a mountain of credit card debt designed, of course, to keep you trapped forever. So get out. Break those chains, ladies and gentlemen, and sign up today. Give American Financing a call. America's Home for home loans. 888-528-1219. That's 888-528-1219. AmericanFinancing.net Betty. Okay, let's go to the. Let's get to the actual, like, positive part. Jessie Buckley, and I don't pretend to know who Jesse Buckley is, but she won best actress, which of course is a huge, huge award. And instead of giving a. I mean, the best way to describe it would
Brandon Gill
be
Benny Johnson
like a offering to bail, which is what happened with Michelle Williams. We have a Michelle Williams clip. Please. I know the boys have it. Instead of giving an offering to bail, which is what happened just a few short years ago with this actress named Michelle Williams who nobody cares about and is totally irrelevant, but she, she got up and like, said, I wouldn't be able to do this without. Without my abortion. Right? This is what Michelle. This is what Michelle Williams said. Just, just fast forward right here. Play. Messy and scrawling, sometimes careful and precise, but one that I had carved with my own hand and I wouldn't have been able to. What else did you carve with your own hand without employing a woman's right to choose? She's literally holding up her golden idol. Saying how she sacrificed her child to. Was one of the sickest things anybody ever seen. All these plastic witches sitting there glaring on. I worship my golden idol and I sacrifice my children to it. Yep, yep, it's the church of Satan. That's what it is. Well, anyway, fast forward to today and you have this lady, Jessie Buckley.
Brandon Gill
Again.
Benny Johnson
I don't know who the hell this is, but she gives quite literally the opposite speech. And I think it's wonderful. Listen to this. You Fred I love you, man. I love you. You're the most incredible dad. You're my best friend, and I want to have 20,000 more babies with you. I do. I do. And Isla, my little girl, who is eight months, who has absolutely no idea what's going on and is probably dreaming of milk, but this is kind of a big deal, and I love you and I love being your mom, and I can't wait to discover life beside you. Chloe and Maggie, you. To get to know this incandescent woman and journey to understand the capacity of a mother's love is the greatest collision of my life. It's Mother's Day in the UK today. I mean, that's cool. To the beautiful chaos of a mother's heart. We all come from a lineage of women who continue to create against all odds. Thank you for recognizing me in this role. This is the greatest honor. I can't even believe it. The power of a mother, man. Super cool. The power of mom, like, in a speech. And like, my wife this morning was like, that's, like, unbelievable to hear mom saying, you know what? In, you know, like, motherhood is hard. It's the most rewarding thing also in the world. All hard things. The only rewarding things are actually the hard things. Nothing feels good when it's too easy and sloppy and effortless. It's a problem with our society actually. Not enough people get punched in the face. And parenthood is hard. That's what makes it the most rewarding thing on earth. And the scriptures say that life is hard. The scriptures guarantee that Christians will live tough lives, and it makes it rewarding. It's wonderful to hear that message that actually in, like, the difference in I sacrificed my child to get my golden idol versus, like, this golden idol means nothing in relation to my beautiful children. And I was able to achieve both. And thank God for that. Very cool, man. Very cool. Wild times. My team is telling me that Brandon Gill is set, rocked, and ready to go. Shocking. Nicole Kidman talks about Jesus Christ and her faith.
Brandon Gill
Whoa.
Benny Johnson
Michael B. Jordan thanked God, too, at the Oscars. Are we winning? Chat. Dare I say it? Is it possible that we're actually winning? I don't know, man. Just pop that tweet up. We don't need to listen to it, but, like, let's. Like, that's crazy. Actress Nicole Kidman reveals she was. She was at church all day before the Oscars. The church on Sunday. That's what we do on a Sunday. Wow. She, like, honors Jesus Christ from the carpet of the Oscar. Weird. And Cool. I wonder what Brandon Gill has to say about this. The congressman from Texas joining us live right now. I doubt he watched the Oscars, but let's find out. Yo, Brandon. What up, G? I don't think that you are an Oscars guy, but I may be wrong.
Brandon Gill
No, I'm not. Unfortunately, I did not watch the Oscars. Neither did Danielle, my wife. That's not something that we really enjoyed.
Benny Johnson
Yeah, dude, you have to serve with Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar. So you get to see best actresses all the time in the halls of Congress. I'm sure you, you've seen plenty of acting and Oscar worthy performances. Like at the State of the Union. Like at the State of the Union,
Brandon Gill
there's far more acting talent, I would imagine, on the Democrat side of the aisle in Congress than there is in Hollywood.
Benny Johnson
What's the difference these days? What's the difference? You are a proud father. I believe you have two children, is that correct?
Brandon Gill
Two young children.
Benny Johnson
People do this to us all the time. Young families. It's hard to keep track, you know, honestly. And I thought it was kind of cool though, like. Right. Like, I thought it was neat to see some strange veneration actually of fatherhood, motherhood, parenthood, a little bit of like Christendom actually shining through in the anti Christian Hollywood satanic cesspool. I think that's kind of neat. I think that's a w. What do you think?
Brandon Gill
I think it's a huge win. I mean, that's what. You know, there's been such a disconnect between the elites in Hollywood and normal people in the rest of the country who go to church every Sunday and believe in God and believe in things that are good, true and beautiful and, and it's nice to see that disconnect at least get smaller, even for just a short period of time. I mean, to your point, I don't watch the Oscars and neither does anybody in my family. And that's because for so long, Hollywood has become little more than just a cesspool of cultural rot. I mean, there's very little of cultural or aesthetic value that Hollywood has produced in the past several decades. I mean, these are people who generally, as a general matter, disdain everything that I love and stand for. They disdain generally our faith, they disdain our culture, they disdain our country and our heritage. All of the things that, that we believe make this country great and that are good, true and beautiful, they stand against. So it is good to finally see somebody within that dark world who actually, at least to a small Degree reflects the values that the rest of the country hold.
Benny Johnson
Yeah, it's amazing. We heard some printing and muling virtue signaling speeches about. About, you know, crackdowns on free speech. Right. And foreign dictatorships, but they don't say any. They don't say. They don't say anything about Iran. They say nothing about Venezuela. They say nothing about Cuba. They say nothing about President Trump. Global wins, you know, it seems quite, you know, and they would, of course, never dare criticize Communist China. That's where they need their money. Right.
Brandon Gill
Yeah, it's all, it's all just hollow virtue signaling. I mean, they, they're well aware of what kind of rhetoric is tolerated in Hollywood and what isn't. You know, you can, you can go so far as to say you love your children. At least they're allowed to say that. But they're certainly not allowed to say that they have any affinity for conservatives or Christians more broadly, and certainly not for anything President Trump has done that's been great for the country. They. They'll never cross that line, at least not anytime soon.
Benny Johnson
I think it was remarkable that we didn't hear any complaining about the police or cops, given the fact that there was a massive FBI and Secret Service presence at the Oscars itself and federal law enforcement presence at the Oscars itself because of a Iranian drone threat. And they had ratcheted it up to 11, all reports say. And it's remarkable how all the ice out pins disappeared when it was federal law enforcement protecting them at their little event.
Brandon Gill
Right. I mean, these are the people who actually benefit the most from police protection. Whether it's because they get, you know, threats for whatever reason, or that it's a massive target for foreign agents, they're the ones who get protected. And whenever they don't, they've all got private security anyways. But it's really easy, whenever you're in that kind of bubble, to look down on the rest of America who wants to exercise our Second Amendment rights or who wants to make sure that our local police departments are not only fully funded, but, you know, actually are actually from a morale standpoint, supported by the people. But, you know, it's just, it's one thing after another with these people. You know, they'll take all of the benefits of living in the United States and all of the. The cultural and economic benefits of really what conservatives have been pushing and then throw it back in our faces.
Benny Johnson
Yeah. Just one final note on this. I mean, I know again, you're not. We didn't ask you to come on the show to talk about the Oscars necessarily. But, but you are young and you are like locked in and obviously you have millions of followers on social media and you see this kind of stuff. Jimmy Kimmel I don't know, I don't understand. I thought he had a restraining order from all of the award shows in Hollywood. I thought he had a beeper on his leg. But sure enough he's able to claw his way in to every single award show and get on and give some Trump hating speech, muling speech. And last night he was talking about how there's an we live in a country with authoritarian attacks on free speech. He says this and he cites CBS and North Korea and America as like the things attacking free speech. I wonder your response perhaps to Jimmy Kimmel.
Brandon Gill
Oh yeah, it's always rich to hear somebody talking about the attacks on free speech from ostensibly Republicans and conservatives whenever you're the one who is bashing the President and bashing conservatives and Christians on national TV and on whatever other platform you want to use every single day. I mean nobody's stopping him from attacking the president. Nobody said he doesn't have the right to say that. As idiotic as most of what comes out of his mouth is. But I mean to your point earlier, young people don't watch this stuff anymore, I think for the main reason is that it's just not funny or entertaining. You know, it's a bunch of self serving, elitist, really contemptible elitist people who are, you know, running an awards ceremony so that they can congratulate themselves. There's nothing. And I think most people look at this and say there is very little value that you've created in your lifetime. You're not entertaining, you don't promote any kind of culture that I relate to in any way. So I'm just going to turn it off.
Benny Johnson
Brandon Self serving elitists is like a great segue into the U.S. senate and a wonderful opportunity to talk about the SAVE act and what the hell is going on up there in the Senate. Although I did hear some good news, perhaps this weekend that we may actually get a true debate. We might actually be getting closer to doing a proper filibuster of the SAVE act in the Senate. You've obviously been the co signer of the bill and its initial advocate and somebody who's been beaten the pavement and hitting the bricks for this. What's up with this? Most popular piece of legislation maybe in American history.
Brandon Gill
Oh, and yeah, that's the thing. The American people look at this right now Especially Republican voters. And they say, we elected you guys. We gave you a control of the House and the Senate and the presidency. Now you've got the most common sense piece of legislation you could possibly contemplate, and you can't even get this done. So right now, you know, as you know, we passed it out of the House, it's stuck in the Senate. It looks like things are moving in the right direction in the Senate right now. They are starting debate on this bill. It looks like that debate is gonna last quite some time. Without getting into all of the nuances of Senate procedure, Leader Thune is doing what's called filling the tree. So they're putting Republican amendments onto this core piece of legislation as a means of sort of prolonging debate. It's almost like one step short of a talking filibuster. So I'm happy to see that. But I think what we need to recognize is it's not over until it's over. The goal here is not to do. To put this up for a vote in the Senate, to put people on record and see who stands for the SAVE act and who doesn't. The goal is to get this bill to the president's desk so that he can sign it into law to make sure that illegal aliens are not voting in our elections. That's the whole purpose of all of this. So I think that we need to keep the pressure up politically on the Senate so that they know where the American people stand. And that's why, you know, I've said publicly several times that I'm not going to vote for any bill that the Senate sends over to the House other than DHS funding, because I think that's particularly relevant. That happened before all of this. But I'm not going to vote for any Senate bill that they send over until they pass the Save America Act. And I've got a lot of colleagues who agree with me on that.
Benny Johnson
Yeah, please. I believe there's maybe 50. Is that so? 51 different members of Congress now that have said, am I. Am I under quoting that?
Brandon Gill
That sounds about right. My estimate is probably in the 40 or 50 range. And it's really because we in the House recognize that, you know, this is going to be a big issue for the midterms, apart from how much this is just great policy, something that we need to get done. It's really hard for us to go back to voters in November and say, you gave us control of the House and the Senate and we couldn't get something that 80% of the country agrees with across the finish line. That's a tough argument to make. So if we want to go back to voters and convince them that we should maintain control of the House and the Senate, that we should keep the majority, we've got to actually do something with the power that voters gave us. And this is the, the perfect thing. You know, right now, especially for Republican voters, this is pretty much all anybody cares about. They don't care about, you know, small little, you know, little bills that we could pass on the House floor that don't really move the needle anymore. They want to make sure illegal aliens are not voting in our elections. Election integrity is something that conservatives have talked about for quite some time now, and now we have the opportunity to do something about it. So this is the issue, this is the current political zeitgeist and we better jump on it and actually do something about it. And if not, it's, you know, it's going to be a tough sell in November for us.
Benny Johnson
Just very quickly, can you please cut right through all of the procedural and parliamentarian, you know, eyes glazing over, you know, back and forth and just like tell us point blank, Congressman, how does this get passed?
Brandon Gill
I think that there are two ways for this to get passed. One is to attach the Save America act to a must pass piece of legislation that the Senate would just pass altogether. I think that that's going to be a tough road to go down, but that's one way you could do it. The other way is just this talking filibuster. It's to bring the Save America act to the Senate floor and make the senators actually debate this debate this measure do what a real filibuster is a real filibuster. Senators debate for and against any piece of legislation. So make them actually do it until the clock runs out on debate, which allows every senator to speak twice, they can speak as long as they can. And, and once that clock runs out, once every senator has done that, then you end debate and you actually vote on the underlying bill. So again, without getting too much into the weeds, there are two ways to end debate in the Senate. And that's where this 60 vote threshold actually happens. You can either vote on cloture, which requires that 60 votes, meaning you didn't even have to debate anything on the floor. You're just voting to end debate to then vote on the underlying bill. Or, or you can run out the clock on debate, meaning make the senators actually talk, actually debate. And then once that debate is over from a timing perspective, then you move on to the vote for the underlying bill, if that makes sense. And that, I think, is gonna be the best path here. It takes longer, but I think that's a better path for us to go down.
Benny Johnson
I know, but, like, dude, like, most of these senators, Democrats and Republicans together have, like. They have tee times. Brandon. Hey, Gil. They have, like, tee times, all right? Like, they got. They got. They. They got. They got Oscars. Tanji Brown Jackson was at the Grammys, okay? They got Oscar ceremonies ago. They got Oscar parties to go to. Like, what do you mean? Go debate, you know, and then. What do you mean by, like, stand and debate and speak? Like, I've heard Maisie Hirono not only can most of these senators not stand, but, like, Maisie Hirono doesn't speak English, and so this would be very, very tough first for the Democrats in the Senate. So, yeah, I mean, I can see why they'd be very upset about this happening to them. I, like, I pray it happens, man. Like, I see some positive signs. We'll be up in D.C. tomorrow, like, actually hitting the bricks for this, and so we're excited about that. One final thing, speaking of hitting the bricks or, like, like, literally sending people out of our country, Muhammad Jola is a really unique and special individual. Before he gets, like, completely memory hold, this guy gets invited here, gets flown here on American taxpayer dollars from Sierra Leone. No explanation from any politician as to why we're bringing anyone from Sierra Leone or Somalia or any other failed state to this country. Then he expresses his interest in doing an ISIS terrorist attack. He gets arrested and then convicted for that, and then he gets let back out on the street to commit an ISIS terrorist attack, which he did last week. And he killed a great. Like, a truly great American, somebody who actually deployed three times in order to go fight terrorists, and then was killed here on our own soil by our suicidal immigration laws and toxic empathy. How do we stop this from happening, Congressman, in the future?
Brandon Gill
Yeah, I mean, this was a failure on so many different levels. I mean, first of all, why was this person ever let into the country to begin with, to your point? You know, it's like, if only we. There was some way to predict that somebody named Mohammad Jala from Sierra Leone might actually be a terrorist threat. You know, why don't we use some common sense here and recognize that we don't need to bring people in from all over the globe with ideologies that want to kill us into our country, and we have the right to say no. So he never should have been let into our country to begin with. And then once we found out that he had any terrorist sympathies, much less tried to coordinate with isis, he should have either been imprisoned for life, executed, or deported the heck out of here. So it's so many failures and it's such an idiotic way of running an immigration system and ensuring that the American people are actually safe from foreign threats. My view, and I've said this before, is I don't think that we should be. I don't think that it's wise for the United States to mass import people from the Islamic world into our communities. That does make our country less safe and less secure. And this is another great example of that.
Benny Johnson
Unfortunately, really quickly here, because I know we're up against a hard out. What should happen in Congress? What do you recommend? What bills are on the floor? Chip Roy is on here talking about the PAUSE act with regularity. What bills do you support in order to end this madness? Because of course, as we have documented time and time again over the last couple weeks, if imported, every attack in 2026 was somebody who we brought here at great expense to come here and kill us. It's a suicidal immigration ideology.
Brandon Gill
Oh, it's absolutely. It's idiotic and suicidal. There's a variety of legislation that I support. The PAWS act is one of them. Anti Sharia legislation is one of them. Congressman Ogles unveiled some legislation last week that we're digging into now. The overriding framework, I think, should be to drastically reduce immigration, of course, illegal immigration, but also legal immigration, and put serious stipulations on who can actually come into the country under any circumstances, making sure that you do not have any allegiance to any foreign government, you don't have any allegiance to any terrorist organization. And ideally, and I think you should be assimilable into American culture, be somebody who can become American. And there are certain ideologies and worldviews that are unassimilable. So I think that should be the basic framework. Again, the purpose of our immigration system is to benefit the American people. There's no other reason that exists. We have no obligation to bring in anybody from any part of the globe. And that's just a basic fundamental principle. And it's amazing how far we've strayed away from that.
Benny Johnson
Yes, that, that made some. That hit my timeline this weekend, the anti Sharia legislation. Just really quickly, in closing, what's the status on that?
Brandon Gill
Yeah, that's something that has quite a few co sponsors now. I don't know the Number off the top of my head. But I'm part of the anti Sharia caucus in Congress. I think we have over 50 members now, all Republicans. That's quite big for a caucus like that. So it is growing. I think that every Republican at least recognizes that, especially over the past two weeks, the threat of Islamic terror within the United States is very real and it is killing our people. So you are seeing a growing movement here of support from across the Republican conference for bills like this.
Benny Johnson
Yeah, we, we just, we read through Sharia law last week on the show. It would be better if more people just like pulled it up on AI, you know, just groked it. It's just like, what is Sharia law? He just read through it and like it pretty much to a letter, to every single letter and decimal point is antithetical to the Constitution, to every word of our constitution is incompatible. I'm going to leave it up to God to judge, you know, to judge people right. And where they should go in the afterlife. But I'm telling you as a man, it is incompatible with our governing documents. All right, so you know Brandon Gill, ladies and gentlemen, he's got 300,000 subs on X and he's just one of those guys who is just an all time brawler and we're very proud to be supporting him. And every single time he comes up on a C span clip, we're like, here we go, it's going to be good. Thank you, Benny.
Brandon Gill

There's some cool stuff on Cuba I really want to get to. This is something that is near and dear to my heart. I will admit to you all my biases. We often talk to you about, like, why do we do the show? What do we even know? Like, what's our motivation? And I post about my kids all the time, my family. It is the core, central guiding principle of my life. I want to build a great business. I want to build. I want to save this country. But the motivation matters. The motivation is so that I can. I can leave an inheritance to my kids. It's biblical. It's true.
Brandon Gill
It's good.
Benny Johnson
The reason why I care about this Cuba issue so much is that, like, yo, we live in a Cuban city. There's an entire, like, massive Cuban, Cuban section of Tampa. Real fun place to hang out called Ybor City. And there's like, tons. There's Cuban war memorials around here, right? Like anti communism memorials in this town. There's a great Cuban population here. I'm friends with many of them. And these people have the most horrible stories. They don't like to talk about it. Sometimes it's like, real, like, communism is real to these people. So President Trump, like, toppling the communist regime in Cuba would be incredible. It would make Jimmy Kimmel cry, make all these Hollywood libs cry. It would be one of the best things to ever happen, man. And I'm like, I'm so down. I'm so down. And for this, this just makes a lot of sense. Obviously, the Russians used Cuba in order to put nuclear missiles, ballistic missiles in that could hit New York. Castro famously wanted to launch those weapons the reasons. The. The reason the Russians actually kept the uranium away from Castro is that they realized he was a homicidal maniac and he was going to bomb America, he was going to nuke America. He was just going to start nuclear war. He didn't care. He knew that it would mean the decimation of. It'd be the extinction of the Cuban people. He didn't care. So Cuba's always. Cuba's been a problem. It's obviously. Obviously been a problem for 67 years. Trump's about to fix it. Trump on Cuba yesterday was saying that Cuba's a failed nation. We're going to make a deal. We're gonna do what we have to do. We're gonna get Iran, though, done before Cuba, which I think is fun. Like, when it comes to, like, lick the pencil, put the. Put something in the calendar. Here we go. Thank you very much.
Brandon Gill
What do you want?
Benny Johnson
Cuba do. You're talking to Cuba. What do you want to hear from them? Well, I am holding Cuba. Cuba's a failed nation. Cuba also wants to make a deal. And I think we will pretty soon either make a deal or do whatever we have to do. We have a lot of great people that happen to vote for Trump. Not that that matters, but we have a lot of great people from Cuba that were violently and viciously thrown out of the country, and worse, their families were killed. And so we're talking to Cuba, but we're going to do a rant before Cuba. You know, people have been waiting 15 years to hear this story with Cuba. When I left Palm beach today, there were thousands of people on the road. I'm sure you saw them, and they were from Cuba and from Venezuela, all friendly, all friendly, waving the flag and waving the American flag. They've been waiting 50 years. What's happening with Cuba? So I think something will happen with Cuba pretty quickly. Hey, Alex, we got to have the Cuban documentary that we made here at Turning Point. We didn't need to play it right now, but, like, we should have the. The Cuban documentary. Just like there's, like, locked and set and ready to go. Maybe we can do it as a play beside right now, because I'm going to talk really quickly about, like, what we did in Cuba. We went there. Like, I experienced this. Like, I saw it. It was, by the way, one of the most beautiful is one of what. What could be one of the most beautiful countries on Earth. It had this, like, colonial Spanish architecture. All of the buildings, everything was so, so ornate. And it is almost like it is Like a horror movie happened. Like, what ended up happening. What ended up happening next after the communist revolution is that everything collapsed and it just crumbled from the inside. And we saw it up close. They rated our. You know, when you Google Cuba, you see this propaganda. This is what you see. But when you actually go to Cuba, oh, man, did we see some really dark stuff. There is a. There is a. A propaganda war that is just crazy. Oh, look, it's Conan o'. Brien. Would you look at that? I actually forgot about that, man. When you actually travel there. We. We went. Food lines, gas lines, collapsing infrastructure, filth, oppression. We got raided by the government. They tried to take our SD cards. We had to flee to the actual embassy. We. I mean, I actually. I'd actually really like to go back and, like. And, like, do this. Do it again properly, because this is now a couple of years old. The first thing that happened at the airport is we got stuck at the airport, like, seven hours in their little customs, got questioned for seven straight hours because we brought in camera equipment. Dude, it was. It was wild. But then, like, the whole. The whole thing is just the whole. The whole country. The saddest part about the whole country is that you could see under the. Under the edifice of, like, the filth and the collapse and the destruction that it once used to be so beautiful, that this was once one of the most. This was once, like, the crown jewel of the Caribbean. I would love to see it back. I'd love to see it brought back to its. To its glory days. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Do you got that? Okay. Yeah. I mean, again, we start. We, like, we. We. I mean, we saw that. We saw the gas lines. We saw the gas lines. We saw, like, the food lines. Like, this is the food line. Anyway, Klein, maybe we have to just go back. Maybe we have to go back, right? The Cuban government is now saying. The Cuban government is now saying that they're gonna work with Trump. That's what's crazy. So reading here from the article, the president of Cuba, President Miguel Diaz Canel, said on Friday that the country has open talk with the United States as the island faces severe economic. Most severe economic crisis in decades. And these talks have been aimed at finding solutions because President Trump has them by the balls. President Trump has choked out Cuba and said, you ain't gonna get any fuel, you're not gonna get any gold, you're not gonna get any minerals, you're not gonna get any food from your only ally in this entire hemisphere, which is Venezuela. No one's going to help you. And I think that the regime is gonna, I think the regime's gonna topple. I think the regime is gonna just completely fall. What you saw this weekend was Communist party headquarters getting burned. Alx, if you wouldn't mind grabbing that real fast. People of Cuba are setting the Communist party headquarters on fire now torching them. Something like unthinkable in the last 67 years. Unthinkable. So going and taking this is a good example, Klein. They're going and taking Molotov cocktails and torching the Communist party headquarters throughout the island because hungry people revolt. People with no electricity revolt. People with no fuel revolt. Trump knows this entire island's a tinderbox. I don't care how many guns you have. You know, like, oh, you're not allowed to own a gun in Cuba, right? The government has all the guns. Doesn't matter in situations like this. Doesn't matter. The soldiers will turn on the government too, because they also are living without food, food, water or electricity. Their wives and children are also living like this. So it's an incredible moment. I'm like totally down on it. It's. Yeah, it's. It's something that we're excited for. Is this going to be the golden era for Cuba, ladies and gentlemen? It could be your golden era. Advantage Gold. Our friends who have set us up for our golden era. Gold's been doing great. It's been at record highs. We've been telling you about it for a long time.

Gets shot, gets killed in federal standoff. Okay, I'm kind of sad that Jasmine Crockett is not the senate candidate in Texas. It makes me, it makes me sad. It would have been hilarious, dude. It for the memes obviously, right? Would have been like Kamala 2.0, but like way funnier. Jasmine Crockett like spent virtually zero dollars by the way, and nearly one, so it's frustrating. But Anyway, Crockett's fugitive security guard had extensive criminal history under federal pro before fatal SWAT standoff. Oh, cool. Uh, this is who Jasmine, who is a fake hood rat, but this is actually some real hood, right? So, you know, get her some hood, get her some points in the hood. Okay, so here we go. Firebrand Jasmine Crockett, who's losing her seat in Congress, right. She's no longer going to be a member of Congress. She had to give up her seat to run for a different office in Texas. Had extensive criminal history dating back to 2009. Was under federal investigation when he was shot and killed in Dallas. I don't think that Jasmine Crockett was around, but let's go ahead and see. This is Robinson, 39, had gone by multiple aliases, including Mike King, to con his way into the Texas law enforcement community, claiming to be a police officer and securing a position protecting 44 year old Jasmine Crockett. The shady suspect has been arrested numerous times between 2009 and 2012. You can't do like a background. All you need is a Social Security number. So you can't do a background check. Adam, really? Jasmine Crockett, man, class act. Okay, so it doesn't do a background check Using Social Security number. Robinson had pleaded guilty to all charges that he faced. Both felony and misdemeanor offenses and only faced fines of $2,500 and probation. His largest sentence was 10 years of probation. According to records viewed by CBS News, Robinson used his alias to get work for Crockett. You can see them both on video footage. Apparently the feds finally decided to scoop him up and he was shot dead. He resisted and was shot. All right. You know, only sending their best. Let's go ahead and look at something that isn't us sending our best. We which is the Republicans in the Senate. The Republicans in the Senate are not our best. Now, Republicans in the Senate have been overtaken by Democrats in the betting market for who will control the Senate after the 2026 election. Democrats are up by one point. Obviously it was very, very broad spread here. Republicans were at a high of nearly 80% likelihood of this happening around November. But then it's had a full sail collapse as the Republican Senate proves that they are good for nothing but betraying their voters. But ladies and gentlemen, this is why we fight and fight back. I. We are sorry to announce. We announced that Buck Sexton would be joining us at the top of the show. Buck had a technical difficulty and will not be able to join us. So too bad. So Sad. Ladies and gentlemen, onto the verse of the day. Verse of the day, Galatians 6, 9. Let us not become wary of doing good. For at the proper time we will reap harvest if we do not give up. Do not become weary of doing good. My wife and I talk about this all the time. What's the biggest gift that you can have for anybody in your life? Capacity. Something that I run into headlong here at this company all the time. Like, I have no capacity. I'm constantly trying to build capacity. When I have like embarrassing moments or moments that I have to apologize for or whatever, like professionally or in my personal life, it's because, like, I'm like, I. I don't have like the, the deep well of a little extra energy, a little extra calm to like, put towards something. Sometimes it's a little too much caffeine. Sometimes it's just like being grumpy. This is why I get up in the morning and get a workout in. Honestly, like, it gives you. It's energy giving. Get out and into the sunshine in the morning. Like, I did that with my kids. This, this morning I just had. My kids had pancakes and we sat out on the front step and we just sat there and you just get sunshine. And this is like the best. This is, this is the, like, get. You get your capacity levels up. Don't become weary of doing good, says the scripture. You'll reap the harvest if you do not give up. Because doing good actually takes a lot of energy. Being good to people, being professional people, I fail that all the time. Like being professional to people, being kind, being like calm. Like it is a high intensity work, you know, like career and profession. But like, whatever. Like everyone has a high intensity, high stress life. Everyone does. Everyone does, right? Because it's kind of in your own mind, really. So don't grow. Don't grow. Like, don't like, find that capacity. Like, find positive. Find positive habits that let you continue to have the energy in order to be good to those around you. Right? That's what the scriptures says. Then God says that you will reap a harvest if you do not give up. Okay. Good. Way to start our week, ladies and gentlemen. May God bless you on this Monday as we head off to do good and speak the truth. March with us on the victory. It's your boy, Benny.

Episode Title: Oscars BOMB As Hollywood ROASTED With Savage Epstein Joke, Dark Truth Revealed | TPUSA Shout Out...?
Date: March 16, 2026
Host: Benny Johnson
Featured Guest: Rep. Brandon Gill
This episode of The Benny Show centers on Benny Johnson's raw, irreverent breakdown of the 2026 Oscars, which he deems a cultural “bomb.” With a satirical edge, Benny and guest Brandon Gill take aim at Hollywood elitism, perceived hypocrisy, and the mainstream media. They dissect the night’s most controversial jokes (including a Jeffrey Epstein jab), analyze shifting cultural signals (notably more pro-family and faith moments), and connect these trends to broader sociopolitical battles. The latter portion transitions to contemporary policy debates, including border security, immigration, and the situation in Cuba.
The episode is characterized by Benny’s trademark irreverence, meme-savvy humor, and unapologetic partisan slant. The style blends sharp satire, culture war rhetoric, and policy wonk analysis, punctuated by direct criticisms of both Hollywood and mainstream Republican politicians.
This episode of The Benny Show delivers a scathing recap of the Oscars with satirical jabs at Hollywood’s self-congratulation, hypocrisy, and loss of cultural cachet. Resonant moments—such as genuine faith and parenthood speeches—are cast as rare wins for conservative values. The cultural conversation leads seamlessly into contemporary policy debates, particularly the challenges of border security and legislative roadblocks in Washington, D.C. Whether for entertainment or informed commentary, Benny’s episode offers an unvarnished, opinionated tour through the intersection of celebrity culture and political controversy.
