Hello everybody, I'm jesse waters along with kayleigh mcenany, jessica tarlov, dana perino and greg gutfeld. It's five o' clock in new york city and this is the five. The liberal media is going hog wild over the cokeboat hoax, the cartel cruiser chock full of poison in the Caribbean Sea that her military smoked on September 2 and then double tapped as two alleged narco terrorists clung to the wreckage. The Washington Post accused the Secretary of War of committing war crimes. Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike officials say kill them all. But that narrative getting lit up by the New York Times, who reported Hegseth ordered a lethal attack but not the killing of survivors. Officials say the secretary was at Trump's Cabinet meeting defending the strikes, saying he watched the first one but then dipped out for meetings during the second. We've only just begun striking narco boat drugs coming in through the sea by sea are down 91% and I don't.
- [02:13]
A
Know who the 9% is.
- [02:14]
B
I'm not sure either sir, but down 91% by sea.
- [02:18]
A
We've had a bit of a pause because it's hard to find boats to.
- [02:21]
B
Strike right now, which is the entire point, right? Deterrence has to matter, not arrest and hand over and then do it again.
- [02:30]
A
So you didn't see any survivors? To be clear, after that first strike.
- [02:34]
B
I did not personally see survivors, but I stand because the thing was on fire. It was exploded in fire smoke. You can't see anything.
- [02:42]
E
You got digital.
- [02:43]
B
This is called the fog of war. One of the seditious six is piling on. Senator Mark Kelly says Pete is a Toy soldier. I am not going to be silenced by this president or the people around him. There needs to be an investigation. He runs around on a stage like he's a 12 year old playing army and it is ridiculous. It is embarrassing. But any new facts be damned, the media and the Democrats have made up their mind. Pete is a war criminal.
- [03:16]
A
There is no lawyer that I'm aware of who indicates that that second strike is not a war crime. That's a violation of international law.
- [03:27]
D
That is considered a war crime if.
- [03:29]
C
The facts are being reported stand.
- [03:30]
B
If the facts are, as have been alleged, that there was a second strike specifically to kill the survivors in the war in the water, that's a stone cold war crime. It's also murder.
- [03:42]
D
It's flat out murder.
- [03:43]
C
And anyone that acted on those orders could be held on on war crimes.
- [03:48]
B
All right, so, Jessica, it takes two strikes to knock the boat down to the bottom of the ocean. How is that a war crime?
- [03:55]
D
Well, it's a war crime and we didn't play any Republicans, but there are plenty of them that have been talking about, like John Yoo, who was the architect of the Bush 911 response, was talking about this as well, that if there are people who are shipwrecked, which is what these two survivors were.
- [04:09]
B
Survivors?
- [04:10]
D
They survived the first strike.
- [04:12]
B
Terrorist strike. They're not survivors.
- [04:14]
D
Okay.
- [04:14]
A
They're victims.
- [04:16]
D
You know, go ahead. I'm sorry. That's how the DoD manual says that you have to do it, that you have to take them. You should send a helicopter to get them out of there and then you try them. Or international law also says that as well. You could play Roger Wicker talking about it. Senator Thom Tillis, Mike Turner, these are all Republicans saying it. So the narrative that this is about the left getting all hot and bothered about another hoax is. Absolutely.
- [04:40]
B
Can I just ask you.
- [04:41]
D
No, you can't. Actually, you already asked. No, I insisted.
- [04:44]
B
What happens if we hit a terrorist and the terrorist survives? We're supposed to send a helicopter to rescue him and then give him first aid.
- [04:54]
D
We know that this is the best case scenario is that Admiral Bradley, who they're trying to put all the blame on, is the one who authorized the second lethal strike that took out these people, who again, it was violation of the law that they were killed. We also know that the US doesn't always do this because there was another strike in the Caribbean back in September where a Colombian and an Ecuadorian person survived. And we repatriated them home. We didn't even take them to court here for the crimes that we knew that they'd committed, we sent them back to their home country. There is tons of reporting. Now you want to call the Washington Post fake news, that's fine. The New York Times story, by the way, didn't exonerate them. We also have the Wall Street Journal saying that a DoD official says that Hegseth was the, quote, target engagement authority. So the guy in charge. We also know writ large that the story about this administration being focused on eradicating American society of drugs is absolute BS Because Donald Trump went and pardoned. He's walking free now. The former Honduran president who trafficked 400 tons of cocaine into America, why did he get to leave prison early? Had a 45 year sentence, which, by the way, Trump administration number one, prosecuted him because Roger Stone is his buddy and because he wrote Donald Trump a letter calling him your excellency and saying that they shared conservative values. The problem is the story is changing every 10 minutes. It went from fake news to the frog shooting. Narcotero it. It is not changing at all, actually, once you let me talk, it's completely consistent. Now it's Admiral Bradley's fault, and I presume that he's getting lawyered up right now.
- [06:29]
B
No prediction. Nothing will come of this.
- [06:33]
C
What you just witnessed with Jessica's explanation here is Democrats in search of their next hoax, their next scandal. Let me break this down for you, John. All the time, Democrats and Trump administration one. No, he was referring to the fact the laws of war, as if the Washington Post story was true. The Washington Post story is not true. Let me break it down because we dealt with in Trump administration one. Buried down in the Washington Post story is the Department of Defense saying that the story is completely false. So you say, okay, what's the Washington Post going on? They say they talked to seven people familiar with the situation. You're like, oh, whoa, seven people agreed on this. That's huge. That's a lot of people. Oh, wait. Well, two people said there was a second strike. There was a second strike. We know that. You get down to brass tacks. They have one source, according to one source. Source, the order was to kill everybody. One source. So on one source, the Washington Post runs with a story. Then you bring in the New York Times. The New York Times spoke to five people familiar with the matter. What did the five people say? Each official said Mr. Hegseth's directive did not specifically address what should happen if a first missile turned out not to fully accomplish all of the things as the operation unfolded. They said Hegseth did not give any further orders to the effect of what the Washington Post said. So it's debunked by five sources at the New York Times. The Washington Post runs with one. And then you have the Democrat, you have the left, you have Jessica swooping in saying, this is a big scandal. Let's impeach. This is the anatomy of a hit job. We saw it all the time four years ago. You're just seeing it again.
- [08:00]
B
Yeah. So if the target is out there, Greg, and you want to put it to the bottom of the ocean and one missile doesn't do it, you have a second missile go in and sink the boat. What's the scandal?
- [08:11]
A
Well, have you not thought about the ocean life? What, that the aquatic life. The aquatic life could be harmed by that second strike? There's a couple of things. Number one, I do not believe anybody that is shouting right now actually cares about those people, okay? They didn't care about the gangs when they were here. They didn't care about the women being trafficked or the kids being attacked or the rapes or. They didn't care about the victims of recidivism. They didn't even care about the victims that we talked about for years, women being thrown in front of subway trains. They only care about victims when it becomes political expedient. When they see an election approaching, it doesn't.
- [08:50]
F
They don't.
- [08:50]
A
They don't know all. Suddenly they're experts on war crimes. They all went on AI and went like, what's a war crime? Could this really happen? You know, I do not believe they care. I refuse to invest any amount of caring on those people on the boat because they are terrorists. If you have not developed the hoax instinct after the last 10 years and your reflex is still to say, wow, this sounds really bad, you need a reverse lobotomy. Let's compare a story that harms, say, the Trump administration versus one that harms the left, okay? When a story suddenly erupts around Trump, it's taken as fully realized, structurally sound, a seasoned oak of facts. Meanwhile, the Minneapolis corruption scheme has been emerging for three years.
- [09:40]
B
It's.
- [09:41]
A
We were screaming about the border for four. We were talking about the trans issue. Nobody was. We were talking about real stories that didn't become real to Democrats until they lost an election. It's never about concerns for people. It's only political. This story was so flimsy, even Mark Kelly was reluctant to say it was a crime because he knew his. What he was going to say was a Matter of opinion in a gray area. From a common sense perspective, it'd be great to kill a terrorist while he's terrorizing. But what are the odds of that? He's either right, running to terrorize. Are running away from terrorizing, you're gonna have to. Maybe it's gonna take two strikes. In bowling, they call it a spare. I'm okay with that. But the process of enacting terror still makes you a terrorist, still makes you worthy of death. Especially if you're dealing with weapons of mass destruction the way drugs are. Of course they're gonna say, but what if they were a fisherman? You could say the same thing about terrorists. What if those terrorists were fishermen? True. Maybe they are terrorists. Maybe we made a mistake. But. But they're pretty confident that they aren't. So this sounds harsh, killing terrorists at sea. I suppose it doesn't sound harsh to me. But if it sounds harsh to you, Jessica, remember that this is what happens when the pendulum swings. We worry about what happens to a captured terrorist. In your hands, can we trust that they will be treated as a captured terrorist or as a Maryland dad in which you suddenly import in a margarita mix for a little afternoon cocktail? We can't trust criminals in your hands. The New York. Our New York government released 7,000 criminals into the city. 7,000. We can't trust you with terrorists. So it's just better for us to kill him in the ocean, make him shark feed, be done with it. Merry Christmas.
- [11:32]
B
I just used to watch these drone videos during the Obama administration. Remember Bombs away, Barry? And he would show us the DOD and one strike, boom, the caravan. You see all these guy scrambling, then they come in, finish the job, rat dat tat. Rat dat dat. Clean up everybody. No one cared. They were terrorists.
- [11:51]
F
Well, here's what I would say. First of all, in any bombshell story, the most important thing you can do is urge caution. Okay? So from our perspective, this is to say, well, okay, let's get some more information. You have the instinct of, like, that doesn't sound right. I'm not sure. Let's see. I don't know. But then you had these massive on the record denials that there was a second strike. There was a second strike. So then that's why I'm just. It's not black and white. There are nuances here. It is, as Pete said today, it's fog of war situation. But I would. I think the administration would benefit from the President of the United States giving a scripted speech about, what are we doing there? What are we doing? Where are we going? What is the goal? Get us behind it. Help us help you get there. Because if you don't, it seems like it's just one thing after another where it's on the record. It's not on the record. But it is.
- [12:45]
D
But it's not.
- [12:46]
F
Now we're blaming this guy. And you know what we haven't talked about? Now it's Tuesday. President Trump wanted to be called the affordability president on Sunday. Nobody's talking about that. Not Monday and not Tuesday. And we've got big problems ahead for the midterms for the Republicans if they don't have an opportunity to focus and to do some things that are just smart, like block the normal blocking and tackling of the media. For as annoying as they are, it still will save you time in the long run so you can push the agenda that you want.
- [13:15]
B
Thank you very much.
- [13:16]
F
Thank you.
- [13:17]

Up next, the liberal media is pushing a Trump health hoax.
- [13:32]

Hey, Bill O'Reilly here.

Things are a little different here on Riverbend Ranch. Our days start a little earlier and our meetings don't take place in boardrooms and the folks gather around the water hole rather than the water cooler. Truth is, all our cattle are born and raised right here in the usa and we raise them a lot different than most outfits. I'm told that most city folks don't know that up to 90% of cattle grown in America have been implanted with artificial growth hormones and fed antibiotics. But at Riverbend Ranch, we raise our calves the old fashioned way and they're never given growth hormones and never fed antibiotics. That's because we don't like to mess with Mother Nature. We believe that cattle grown naturally is not only better for the cattle, but also better for those who show up for dinner. We think you'll notice it's more tender and has a better flavor. That's cause 35 years ago we began selecting genetics for our Angus herd, focused on flavor and tenderness. 35 years of genetic selection and that's made all the difference. Angus beef is special. But will you taste our Angus beef? One bite will say it all. Order from Riverbendranch.com we ship directly from our ranch to your home, Riverbend Ranch, Real American beef.

Well, the media is questioning President Trump's stamina even as the president keeps his racehorse like schedule. And the White House releases the results of an MRI done on his heart and abdomen describing them as perfectly normal. The President holding his ninth cabinet meeting, clocking in at almost two and a half hours and hoping to put the health rumors to rest.
- [15:40]
B
You always find something new, like, is he in good health? Biden was great, but he's Trump in good health.
- [15:48]
A
I'll let you know when there's something wrong. There will be someday that's going to.
- [15:52]
B
Happen to all of us.
- [15:53]
A
But right now, I think I'm sharper than I was 25 years ago.
- [15:55]
B
Then I read in the New York Times, is Trump sharp?
- [15:59]
A
Trump is sharp, but they're not sharp.
- [16:02]
E
That's why they're going out of business.
- [16:04]
F
And the New York Post looking into Oval Office logs showing that Trump is working up to 12 hour days, but it's probably longer than that. Will that be enough to silence critics from running wild with all sorts of theories like these ones?
- [16:17]
A
Has anyone in the history of the world ever have an MRI assigned to.
- [16:22]
E
Them and have no idea what it was for?
- [16:24]
B
As he says, maybe have, you know, a short term memory loss from, from.
- [16:31]
A
A couple months ago. Men in his age group also benefit from retiring. So can we write that prescription next?
- [16:37]
D
We should be having a conversation in this country about how do you prevent progressive aging. That could be debilitating.
- [16:45]
B
The White House just refused to clarify. They even put out a letter from.
- [16:48]
A
The doc, the president's physician, but still didn't reveal.
- [16:50]
D
Yeah, why not?
- [16:51]
B
For what?
- [16:53]
F
Apparently Gavin Newsom, you know, he liked to joke Greg about Trump's health, but when he was asked about Biden, he was like, yeah, he was all good.
- [16:59]
A
Yeah, they're fascinated by Trump's health now. They're so brave and they're so edgy. Colbert's hilarious on this stuff. I'm trying to look up the stuff he said about Biden, but I couldn't find any. In fact, I. These same jokers were so defensive and offended when Biden's brain was the topic. You know, how dare you go after such a. Such an elegant, articulate, but kind. He's so kind. Remember that, the whole thing. He's so kind. No, he was a mean, a hole to everybody, but you couldn't say that. And he stunk up the Oval Office with formaldehyde. Now it's Trump's mri and they act like he's a death store. Here's the difference. We don't care. I don't care. You can say whatever you want about Trump, his age, his cognition. It's not tied to my feelings, my ego. I'm okay with it. That's the difference. See, we Never had bds. We never had Biden derangement syndrome because his problems were real. You know, we didn't have to have them conjured up in our mind like some big tornado of mass hysteria. We were like, oh, dude, the dude's a mess. And it's like, you guys are stupid for tying your horse to this guy, but that's what you want to do. But we weren't, like, working ourselves up to it. Their tda, it's now an addiction, is so overwhelming that they can't even think about how they were under Biden. You know, I watched. I could never work for Trump. I like him as president, but I could never sit through a meeting like that. My ass would be numb and I'd be terrified of falling asleep because I fall asleep at the 5 a lot. So I.
- [18:31]
B
You would have to go to the bathroom.
- [18:32]
A
I would have to go to the bathroom. And I think he does this on purpose. Who's going to break? Because two and a half hours. That is brutal.
- [18:39]
G
And.
- [18:40]
A
And waltz. He can't comment on anything about. He doesn't know what's in it. You don't even know what's in your own damn government. You lost a billion dollars. That dude has to go to jail. He's going to resign. He's going to resign.
- [18:52]
F
Actually, the question I was going to ask Jesse is Tim Walls, when he was on the Sunday shows, any criticism of him, he would just say, release the mri. Well, now it's released. And so there's nothing.
- [19:03]
C
Yeah.
- [19:03]
B
Didn't he also say that Elon stock was going to drop and the minute he said it, it went right back up to the moon? Dana, I made a list we all love. These are the hoaxes the Democrats have perpetrated. I'm looking at you, Jessica. Just since Trump's been sworn in the second time. The MRI hoax, the cokeboat hoax, the Maryland dad hoax. The bombs didn't target and blow up the Iranian nuclear mountain hoax. The illegals don't get free health care hoax. The MAGA guy killed Charlie Kirk hoax. The musk is stealing our Social Security hoax. And antifa isn't real hoax. Now, I just came up with that off the top of my head. If I was a Democrat, I'm just crossing my legs. If I were a Democrat, I would be embarrassed. I'm drinking from a straw, too. I would be embarrassed because you're so wrong for so long. How do you live with yourself, Jessica? How do you live with yourself now? Jessica doesn't fall for it all. Maybe half but here's the difference between how Fox and the rest of the press covers these presidents. Fox would just point a camera at stuff. We would just point a camera at the border. We point the camera at crime. We point it to Biden falling asleep and falling. And that's all you had to do was just show people what was happening. We didn't have to lie. We didn't have to leak. We didn't have to like rank speculation. And that's the difference. And that's why people don't read the Washington Post anymore. No one watches cnn. The messed up part is they don't really care if the MRI was clean. They don't care about the president's house. They care about this president's health. And they want it to be bad. They don't want him healthy. They're looking for a scandal that's going to be covered up. Think about Biden was coughing, he was frail, he was forgetful, and they loved it. Until he bombed the debate and then they tossed him overboard and the guy now has cancer and they hate him. And why do they hate him? Because he ran for president again. And why did he run for president again, Jessica? Because he knew Kamala couldn't win. And you know what?
- [21:18]
A
He was right, Jessica.
- [21:21]
F
Of all the things you can say about Trump, lack of energy or vitality and visibility, that actually plays to his strength. They might not like his energy, but it's just the complete opposite of the Biden administration.
- [21:36]
D
It's just not the conversation to be having. Like, he does doze off and he did during the cabinet meeting. Marco Rubio was particularly boring to him, which I understand, but it's just, it doesn't get you anywhere. And it's been tried before. Like we talked about this. I mean, I, I think that if you are discussing the substance of the things that he's saying that you can prove your case a lot better if you're like, the guy is incoherent. Let me read to you what he just said. Or like last night that he spent majority of his evening reposting or truthing over 100 times attacking Democrats immigrants. Alex Jones, I guess is a favorite. Now he's saying that Michelle Obama may have used Biden's auto pen to ha ha ha, Right. Like, those are things that I think resonate more with people than we don't really know about the wa to Reid visit. And I want to talk about the cankles or the bruising on his hands. Like that doesn't win you elections. Going through the record and saying, these are the things that he's doing that are helping. No, Americans put more money in their pockets is the way to go forward. Otherwise, you just allow yourself to end up in montages. And I have to deal with it. And it's super annoying, so please move on.
- [22:48]
F
And Kayleigh, what the Democrats seem to miss in attacking him this way is that voters have eyes and ears. The Biden people did the same thing. It's like, no, they can see inflation happening right in front of their eyes. They can see the border. They can see the crime. In this case, people can see that President Trump obviously has energy and vitality.
- [23:06]
C
Yes, but they still tried this as far back as five years ago. I mean, I remember being at the podium and they asked me, what about this Walter reed visit from 2019? What happened during that Walter Reed visit? I was asked, and I outright said, this is a conspiracy theory. But they tried it then. And here's round two. Katie Rogers @ the New York Times. Shorter days, signs of fatigue. Trump faces realities of aging in office. It is so bogus. And when you read the piece, she goes in and says, his eyelids drooped until they were almost closed. I mean, I watched your eyelids droop, Greg. You're in fine health. You're fine.
- [23:37]
A
Vitality. Whenever Jesse talks, it's just like.
- [23:40]
C
Involuntary. I don't blame you. But the New York Times flashback, though, I mean, they were talking about the cheap fakes. They bought into that narrative. I have a headline here in front of me how misleading videos are trailing Biden as he battles his age doubts. So this is what they do. They're trying it again. But like you said, you can see him with your own.
- [23:58]
F
Eyes. Yeah, you see it with your own eyes. So then it's like you can move.
- [24:01]
A
On. It is funny. Jessica did say this thing about read the transcripts. That's another little ploy. Nobody ever sounds normal in a transcript. It's when you talk, especially Trump. Trump talks. You have to. Like, none of his humor. Like, they. This has always been the mistake of the Democrats is they took his jokes from a transcript and it goes, can you believe he said this? And then you listen, you go, oh, my God, that's funny.
- [24:24]
C
Right? Yes, it's.
- [24:25]
A
Funny. Come on, Jessica, admit it. Admit.
- [24:27]
D
It. I have admitted that some things he said are funny. But when he's talking about magnets and windmills and calling reporters stupid, and.
- [24:36]
A
That is the funniest part of the.
- [24:38]
D
Whole. And you enjoy him, you have three more years and then it's.
- [24:40]
F
Over. All right?
- [24:42]
A
Coming. Are you.
- [24:42]
C
Sure?
- [24:43]
F
Tennessee. Literally getting AOC to stump for her in today's pivotal election. We'll be right.

People. Election day down in Tennessee. That's a state, Jesse. Voters casting their ballots for an open congressional seat in the state's seventh district. Between that awful gal who hates Nashville and the Republican, both sides are rolling out their big guns, including this fossil. Tennesseans are determined to claw back decency, self respect and common sense from the most corrupt and dangerous president in American history. Number one, she hates Christianity. Number two, she hates country music. How the hell can you elect a person like.
- [26:41]
F
That? I.
- [26:42]
C
Speak. I spoke with Afton over the phone, you know, maybe a week or.
- [26:45]
D
Two ago, and I was just so impressed when we were discussing this moment that we're.
- [26:54]
A
In. Dan, I find it hard to believe that anyone can vote for somebody who sounds like a nasal spray. But it's entirely possible that Afton could win. What does that say about.
- [27:07]
F
Nashville? Well, I think it actually says something more about national politics. And I believe that the margin will be closer tonight than anyone should feel comfortable with. On the Republican side, I do think that Van Epps will win. But this again is Democratic Socialists on the march. Last night, the Democratic socialists and a Democratic socialist in Washington D.C. announced she'll be running for mayor too. So, guys, it's happening. They are all coming. That's where the energy is. Republicans need to wake up and understand that just complaining about the term socialism is not going to get you there. Voters are looking for change and this feels to them like the most immediate way to get it. Because it all sounds so good and none of it's true and none of it will work. But you have to explain that to.
- [27:51]
A
People. It is so true, Kayleigh. It's like, I think that we fall back on, like, oh, like calling somebody a communist or a socialist. Those words don't mean anything to somebody that's like, my age, born in, like, the 90s. So what, what's, what do Republicans need to.
- [28:07]
C
Do? Republicans need to show their work. And you saw that today with President Trump and the Oval Office Cabinet meeting. You saw everyone speak and you saw several of the cabinet members lay out their affordability plan. I've spoken to several. Doug Burgum, who says, I've unleashed 34 leases to drill. That's bringing down gas prices. Then I go over to Scott Turner over at HUD. Scott Turner tells me, look, we have 1 million new homeowners, half of whom are new homeowners. He's laying out his plan to help young people, Gen Z buy houses. And we heard Charlie Kir say, when young people can't buy houses, that fuels socialism. But you need to put these pieces together. The work that's been done on inflation. I mentioned gas prices, the fact that it was 9.1% inflation. Trump brought it down to the 3% range. Tie it together, a cohesive message. It is right and correct to point to the socialist takeover in the Democratic Party. 47% of Democrats voted against a resolution to condemn socialism. But it has to be a one, two punch. Point out the extremity of the left. Lay out your plan for affordability, because that is what fueled Zoran Mamdani. He does not have the right remedy. Prices will skyrocket in the city. Republicans do. And you need to share it and show your.
- [29:12]
A
Work. You know, in the green room, Jessica, you said something that kind of blew my mind. You said, you know, Greg, the reason why cities embrace bad ideas is because their most vocal supporters are buffered from the consequences of those bad ideas. And I thought, my God, Jessica, if only you said that in the show. And then I thought, I'll just say it for you. So.
- [29:30]
D
Jesse, it sounds exactly like me. That's how I talk. And I wrote it in big print, Sharpie. So I agree with Dana that Matt Van Ops is going to win. I think it's about 6, 7 percentage points, which is way too close for a Trump +22 district. And he made the same mistake that Jack Cittarelli made in New Jersey. So he said, if I had been in Congress, I would have voted for the big beautiful bill. The big beautiful bill will take health insurance away from 210,000 people across Tennessee. Rural hospitals are going to close, et cetera. But he also said that there's no policy of Trump's that he disag agrees with. And I think that voters, no matter their political party, are looking for you to be independently minded, for you to say, I like this about our national leadership. I don't like that. Right. Or this is my idea to drive down costs for you. And I mentioned this Yesterday. Families paying $650 more on average than they were a year before. That's real money and that's a real result that they're paying attention to now. Trump had a great announcement today, and I want to see the fine print on it. But I love these Trump baby accounts that he's doing. The thousand dollars into your bank account right when you start. It's interesting that the Dells are financing it. I don't know if there's some kickback coming from it, but those.
- [30:48]
A
Cares. It's private. Dell's financing it.
- [30:52]
D
Right? Yeah. I said I don't know how this all bears out. He is getting private investments for things like the ballroom and we'll see what kind of tax breaks they get or backroom dealings are going on. I was trying to say something nice, so just let it go. But that headline came right. And maybe people didn't even know about it. But what they did know is that Costco has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration to get a refund for the tariffs that they've had to pay out of hand. Or they know about Trump pardoning this guy, this private equity guy, $1.6 billion. He defrauded average Americans, veterans, teachers, farmers. Those are the kinds of people that Trump is saying along with the Honduran president, I'm commuting your sentence, but Tennessee, this has to do with how he's managing the country and how people feel about their.
- [31:35]
A
Life. I don't think people follow values. You said a lot of stuff there that had nothing to do with Tennessee. So let's bring Jesse in to end this segment.
- [31:44]
B
Jesse? Yeah. So the billionaires, if they don't want socialism and the people at the gates with the pitchforks, they should spend a billion or two here and there on the baby bonds and stuff like that, they should be much more charitable and throw lavish parties where we could all have feasts and watch men joust on on.
- [32:04]
A
Horseback. See, Jessica, people used to.
- [32:08]
D
Do. That was about.
- [32:09]
A
Tennessee.
- [32:10]
B
Yes. I don't know what's gonna happen in Tennessee, but whatever happens tomorrow, Jessica will spin.
- [32:14]
D
It. I'm not gonna be.
- [32:15]
B
Here.
- [32:16]
E
Exactly. Oh.

Me. All right, up ahead, Rosie the Rager telling her kid that Trump forced them out of.
- [32:39]
G
America. Do you owe $10,000 or more in credit card debt or personal loans with credit card debt at all time highs? Debt relief advocates is urgently notifying consumers of debt relief relief now being made available designed to aid consumers with out of control credit card debt. Those who qualify and enroll for this relief program may only have to pay back a fraction of what they owe. This is not bankruptcy or debt consolidation loan. This is a relief program that credit card companies would rather you not know about as it could end your debt nightmare and saves you lots of money. Consumers owing at least $10,000 in credit card debt or personal loans can now take advantage of this debt relief as the cost of living skyrockets. To learn what debt reduction you may qualify for, simply go online and visit dra.comdra.com Again, that's.
- [33:41]
C
Dra.Com. It's Christmas music, Jesse. All right. Well, it's TDS Tuesday and Rosie's at it again. Rosie O' Donnell has revealed that her 12 year old daughter is furious at President Trump after she made the conscious decision to flee America for Ireland. Watch.
- [34:05]
A
This. My daughter is now saying damn him, damn Trump. And smashing her hand on the table. And I said, wow, honey, what are you thinking? And she said, he made us move in order for our own safety. And it's now he's destroying the country. Somebody can tap me out, you.
- [34:30]
F
Know. Yeah, I.
- [34:31]
A
Did. I did 22 years. I don't really need to do anymore and I don't want my kid to be so affected by.
- [34:39]
C
It. Greg, one is Jim Acosta, one is Rosie o'. Donnell. That is quite a two.
- [34:43]
A
Shot. Yes. I couldn't tell the difference, to be honest with you. I have an idea for a new FOX Nation show, Celebrity TVA Rehab. All right, so you get Rosie, you get Kathy Griffin, Keith Olbermann, George Sakai, Mark Hamill, Stephen King in a luxury house, much like celebrity Big Brother. You get some Doctors, doctors like Dr. Phil, Dr. Drew, Dr. Siegel, of course, with his book on prayer. I might be the host. I'm not so sure. And then you try to work them through their Trump addiction. It's no longer a disorder, it's addiction. And the perfect example of what an addict does is they pull a geographic, which means they move. When you have an addiction, you move somewhere thinking that that's gonna cure your addiction. She moves to Ireland, but guess what? You're still there. You can't get away from yourself. These people have a problem in that they can't imagine life without that problem. They should take it one day at a time. Say to themselves, you know, today I'm not gonna talk about Trump, tomorrow I will. Then the next day you say, you know what? Today I'm not gonna talk about Trump, but tomorrow I will. Pretty soon you've, you've, you've gathered up a week, a month, six months, and you're Trump.
- [35:53]
C
Free. Good advice.
- [35:55]
F
David. Well, I want to know where is her agent? Okay. Because certainly she should have somebody in her life that is saying, you don't have to do every media interview that comes your way. You made a decision to move to Ireland. Enjoy it. It's a great country. Have fun. Don't talk about. You may not need to know about your, that's private. With your children. And if you want to, it's.
- [36:15]
A
Like a before and after of a trans, like, you know, like somebody he would like decided to go trans. That's him, just.
- [36:22]
C
Trans. Okay, then Jesse, she said that she moved to Ireland to protect her sanity. I'm not sure it's.
- [36:30]
B
Working. I'm gonna say something, Kelly, that's gonna shock a lot of people that don't think I have a heart. We shouldn't be doing this segment. We're talking about Rosie's autistic 12 year old daughter who's smashing her fist on a table because she's so riddled with tds. Even I think this is beneath us and we have covered a lot of things on the show, but I will not participate in something that seems so sad and so vulnerable and so tragic. Will I be covering this tonight on the show at 8 o'? Clock? You'll have to wait and.
- [37:09]
A
See. Terrible. I'm just.
- [37:11]
B
Kidding. I'm just kidding. We will not. I made a conscious editorial decision not to put.
- [37:14]
A
This. You never make conscious editorial decisions.
- [37:17]
C
Jessica. Jesse has such a tender.
- [37:20]
A
Heart. That is.
- [37:21]
D
The. On occasion, yeah, I agree with him about it, it made me really sad because 12 year olds, and you see this about kids even younger than that, they're getting their cues from you and things that you're talking about in the house. And again, it doesn't mean that you can't talk about policy disagreements or I don't like his style about this thing or that. But it's so overwhelming. And you don't get to experience like the joy of being alive when it that's weighing on you like that.
- [37:53]
B
She uprooted her 12 year old and brought her to a foreign.
- [37:57]
A
Country. And you know what it.
- [37:58]
D
Is? Enjoy.
- [38:00]
A
It. Celebrities have been doing this to their kids forever. There is such an inordinate number of trans kids whose parents are famous. Why is that happening? It's because they're placing, they're kind of like, I don't know, they're their identity Munchausen, what do you call it? Munchausen, Munchausen syndrome on their kids. And they're.
- [38:20]
C
Miserable. Sad. That was very well said, Jessica. Totally agree with you. Totally agree. All right, up next, forget having Vito as a pet. How about Spider Man? How about snuggling up with a raccoon and.

Tangle. Enjoy. Why get a dog when you can snuggle with a trash panda? According to a new study, raccoons that live near city dwelling humans are showing early signs of domestication, evolving a shorter snout, a telltale feature of our pets. Greg, you're the only one who ever prepares for my segment. So what have you got to say about the.
- [39:29]
A
Raccoons? All right, so this isn't a real story. I'm going to tell you what's going on. This is not a story about raccoons. This is a story about meth. Okay? You're on your fourth day of a 10 day bender. You've left your door open. The raccoons come in and move in. Suddenly you got pets. That's what this is about. People who have raccoons in their house don't have it by choice. They're just stuck with them and they feed them. And now they have raccoons as pets. Thank.

You. I'm not totally Mad at.

That. I think it's a bad.

Idea. I know that with evolution they get the cute little eyes and then you think you're into it, but my sister years ago had a mama raccoon, had her babies in the wall of her house and it was a total nightmare. I recommend not going this.

Yourself? Yeah. After the phyto feto mishap, I got an angry call about raccoons this morning. My husband was like, I just took our trash out and did it rain over the last few days or is this raccoon pee all over the Thanksgiving trash cans like so? This is mortifying. No raccoons in the house. Absolutely.

Job. I have some news from Florida. Okay, here's the news from Florida. So take a look at this wild video. Cape Coral, Florida. Police got a call about a rogue alligator loitering near some houses. The cop on the scene, a former zookeeper. How about that? Talk about perfect timing. He helped wrangle the huge alligator, ran a tight rope around its snout, gently hoisted it into the back of a truck. The gator is now relocated to a safer spot. The neighborhood safe. And Florida once again proves that it doesn't do normal.
- [44:55]
F
Emergency. Pretty interesting that we save the alligator but take out the you know.
- [44:59]
A
What. Right why is that.

Weird? I mean, I would take out the.
- [45:03]

Alligator. What? Because. What is he doing? He's doing nothing.
