  • Discussion on real crime statistics, population flight, and failures in leadership.
  • Highlights that anti-crime technology (ShotSpotter) was nearly removed for being “racist” until the DNC was in town ([26:54]-[28:30]).

Summary

This energetic Five episode critiques the Nobel Peace Prize's credibility and explores how President Trump’s foreign policy, especially in Gaza, is recognized less by global elites than by on-the-ground results. The panel scrutinizes Letitia James’ legal predicament as a case of poetic justice, debates the merits and political realities of responding to urban crime, and dissects the public persona of controversial figures like Katie Porter. The show balances humor, pointed commentary, and policy analysis with inside jokes and playful banter, offering a detailed look at the week’s hot-button issues through the distinctive lens of The Five.

[Jillian Turner]

Hello everyone, I'm Jillian Turner along with Emily Compagno, Paul Morrow, Jesse Waters, who's that? And Greg Gutfeld. It's five o' clock in New York City. This is the five. President Trump's historic Gaza peace deal appears to be falling into place. CENTCOM is confirming that Israel has finished its part of the bargain for phase one, drawing its troops back in Gaza to the so called yellow line. That means hamas now has 72 hours to release all the remaining hostages, both dead and still alive. This is the President prepares to fly to the region Sunday. First he'll go to Israel, then Egypt. One thing he's not going to be packing though, is the Nobel Peace Prize. That honor this year just went to Maria Corino Machado. She is Venezuela's opposition leader. She did, though, throw the President a bone posting on X quote, I dedicate this prize to the suffering people of Venezuela and to President Trump for his decisive support of our cause. The White House blasting the Nobel Committee for choosing politics over peace. The chair, though, insists it wasn't a deliberate snub.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Listen, in the long history of the Nobel Peace Prize, I think this committee have seen any type of campaign media attention.

[Emily Compagno]

We receive thousands and thousands of letters.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Every year of people wanting to say.

[Emily Compagno]

What for them leads to peace.

[Greg Gutfeld]

This committee sits in a room filled with the portraits of all laureates and.

[Jesse Waters]

That room is filled with both courage and integrity. So.

[Greg Gutfeld]

So we base only our decision on the work and the will of Alfred Nobel.

[Jillian Turner]

Well, this historic peace agreement makes some pretty strange bedfellows. Hillary Clinton is now praising the president's deal, really significant first step. And I really commend President Trump and his administration, as well as Arab leaders in the region for making the commitment to the 20 point plan and seeing a path forward for what's often called the day after. Well, Greg, the president may feel snubbed, we don't know because he, this is something we know he wanted, but he is definitely not being snubbed by the rest of the world. Like the media, Washington, his begrudgingly, I believe they're all saying it's an amazing thing.

[Greg Gutfeld]

I believe Trump derangement addiction is finally being licked. I joke it's never going to go away. This story's fun because we know that Trump deserves it, but we also knew he wasn't going to get it. This was just like a, this was a recreational belief. The reason why he won't get it is that he's legitimately working on behalf of the American people. It's America first, not Belgium first. And European elites, like that guy was talking, they can't stand that, that they know Americans don't care, but it bothers them that the President doesn't because they're supposed to kneel before them. And the great thing about Trump is that his personal goals, like he would like to be great and do well, align perfectly with the voters. I don't know if that's ever happened before because imagine the opposite. If the president's aims don't align with the people, we lived through that. Why did the Biden White House preside over such nonsense like open borders, recidivist crime wave, men and women's sports, censorship, lockdowns targeting citizens over speech. These were products of a government in which their aims were not ours. And so when they achieved them, they felt good. But the American public were like, what the hell is going on? Their highlights, our leaders highlights were our lowlights. And I think now, I think we. This is the closest a president has ever aligned to voters. Every issue he's on the right side, planted a flag on the Hill of common sense. The high ground maneuver has exposed Democrats for being, you know, addicted to luxury beliefs at the expense of the American public. Trump is not just a correction, it's a kill switch. He stopped the country, and in this case the globe from barreling off a cliff. And it leads me to ask one more question, Gillian, if I may ask questions. I want to ask you a question. Where are the protesters who've been driving all of us nuts? You know, why shouldn't they be on the street? Rejoicing shouldn't they be happy? Or is there something that we always knew about them? They need to have other people suffering for them to find something to do.

[Jillian Turner]

I mean, there's always next year, right? Jesse, I. If I had to bet, my money's on next year. This prize is for stuff that went down in 2024, before the President was even back in office. The Gaza deal, first phase is going through. It's, you know, looking good for phase two. What's wrong with.

[Jesse Waters]

I'm not thinking it's going to happen next year or ever. No, the thing's rigged. You should see who's on the committee. The guy that chairs the thing used to work for Doctors Without Borders. It's a Soros funded hit job against the United States. They basically funneled all the illegals here and then said, good luck. These institutions, like the Nobel Peace Prize have become meaningless. Kind of like every year. People magazine snubs Greg Gutfeld for Sexiest Man Alive.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Thank you.

[Jesse Waters]

It's like it's starting to lose its meaning.

[Greg Gutfeld]

You know, finally somebody has the courage to say this.

[Paul Morrow]

You're welcome.

[Jesse Waters]

Who is the heavyweight champion of the world? Exactly. Everybody watches the ufc. Remember when you used to think Victoria's Secret models were like, oh, my God, now they're all trans.

[Greg Gutfeld]

They're all trans, Jesse.

[Emily Compagno]

I don't know.

[Jesse Waters]

I don't know. Yes, also trans. But it starts. It's like all these things Trump has exposed, these institutions like the media, the FBI, the World Health Organization. He comes along and opens your eyes to it. Barack Obama got the prize. It was a DEI prize. He didn't earn it. Even Barack Obama was kind of embarrassed and he knew he didn't earn it. He got it for diplomacy and, and nuclear, non proliferation. Did he stop anybody from nuking up? No, Trump did. Trump stopped the Iranians from doing it. And he wasn't that diplomatic. He had no personal relationships with any other world leader. In fact, he increased all of our military assets in Afghanistan, in Libya, in Syria. He had to go back into Iraq because he gave birth to isis. So Donald Trump has not started one single war and ended eight. It's pretty clear he deserved it. But I'm with Greg. I don't think he's ever going to get it.

[Jillian Turner]

Well, you know, people have been talking for years now about the Trump foreign policy doctrine. I remember talking about it on the air. You know, when he launched his first campaign, everybody had a different idea about what it was. It was, you know, making America great on the world stage. It was ending all foreign wars. Now it's peace through strength. I think this deal shows that really all along, Emily, the Trump foreign policy doctrine has been getting the deal done. This makes it crystal clear. Yeah.

[Emily Compagno]

And it started, you know, this with and well before, but the Abraham Accords where that was Israel brokering that through the brokering of the deal with Trump. Israel then has a partnership with these Arab nations that other administrations said would never happen. And the difference between talk and actual substance is that the economic and the intelligence cooperation and the tourism, all of the gains of the Abraham's Accord. Abraham Accord is still in effect today.

[Jillian Turner]

You mean Abraham.

[Emily Compagno]

Thank you, Abraham Accord.

[Jillian Turner]

I had to. Abraham.

[Paul Morrow]

Thank you, Frankenstein.

[Emily Compagno]

Exactly. Has it remains in effect today. Right. And that's the difference. And I think when you were articulating what Obama got the. I mean, it was for the promotion of nuclear non proliferation. It was for a new climate of diplomacy. Like they were honest. That it was based on ideas and idealism and symbolism, not actual substance. They were literally rewarding hope and ideas. And here we have the benefit of President Trump that actually made history and actually did something. But I agree with everyone, we're never going to get it. He's never going to get that. It's like in 1972, everyone knew that it was an incomplete pass and yet it was deemed an immaculate reception. Everyone knew the Raiders should have won, and yet somehow the Steelers won on. Exactly. So everyone knows what I'm talking about. That history is rewritten in front of your eyes. But everyone knows who. Actually, it's like every.

[Greg Gutfeld]

It's like every best picture in the Oscars is never really the best picture. Did Jaws win best Picture? I don't think it did.

[Jillian Turner]

Because only certain genres can win.

[Paul Morrow]

Yeah, they give it to like ordinary.

[Greg Gutfeld]

People or the worst movie ever.

[Emily Compagno]

No, Reign should have won.

[Paul Morrow]

We need Ricky Gervais to talk to the Nobel committee here.

[Greg Gutfeld]

We don't care.

[Paul Morrow]

Yes, I remember that. The Golden Globes.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yes.

[Paul Morrow]

Put them all in their place. That's what you really. Who cares? Who needs the Scandinavian Valedictorian Award?

[Jillian Turner]

President Trump, he wants it.

[Paul Morrow]

I know, I know.

[Jillian Turner]

Yeah.

[Emily Compagno]

He wants.

[Paul Morrow]

He wants part of history. He's concerned about his position in history. I get that. You're not wrong. But that said, I don't think it really makes a liquor difference here. A couple of things I think really are worth teasing out here. First of all, what a perfect encapsulation of Europe. Right. It's all show, no go. It's like I've talked in the past about Europe becoming epcot. EPCOT has more international influence these days in actual Europe, because realistically, if you look at the. At the metrics, Musk alone, 28 satellites this year, America over 100. China, 40. Europe 44. All right, since the last, what is it, eight years, United States GDP grown 19%. Germany, their biggest economy, 1%. All right, I could go on. It doesn't matter. The bottom line is Europe is failing and this is the kind of thing that they're clinging to because they'll just never give it to Trump because he's the unwashed American. Look at some of the past recipients of this vaunted award. Yasser Arafat. All right, Another charming character. The European Union itself got it in 2012. For doing what? For being the European Union. The European Union essentially gave itself an award. I could go on as far as that goes as well. There's all kinds of scoundrels that have gotten that award. So I think it actually demeans the American presidency and what Trump has accomplished here, because I think what he's done is going to lead ultimately to things like the Saudis coming under the Abraham Accords and the follow on of that is going to be the whole gang of them. You're going to get all of the Syrian all the way going through the Shia Crescent all the way into Lebanon. That's everybody surrounding Israel. This will be the first time where you might have an actual stable Middle East. Think about what that does to things like military fuel prices. This matters. As I said, the Scandinavian Good Guy award, that doesn't matter. And lastly, real quick, it's still a win because they gave it to this Venezuelan who is very Trump adjacent. That doesn't happen without Trump. And she, of course, lauded Trump upon getting it. And this is something we've talked about. There's a Trump Doctrine, a continuation of the Monroe Doctrine. He's looking to change the dynamic from China and to some extent Russia and even Iran in our southern, in the southern part of the Western hemisphere here, relative to Venezuela, Cuba. You could go on. That's where this matters. Let the Norwegians keep the award.

[Greg Gutfeld]

What about Eurovision?

[Jillian Turner]

Oh, he could still be nominated for.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yes, that Eurovision. That's the one that matters.

[Jillian Turner]

You should nominate the president.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Who says I haven't already? Jillian, do your homework.

[Jillian Turner]

So coming up next, something completely different. New York's Attorney General, that's Leticia James. Past comments about prosecuting President Trump before she had any access to evidence are now coming back to bite. She's staring down mortgage fraud charges. Stick with us.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Hey, There.

[Jesse Waters]

I'm Art Edmonds Jacuzzi mint is still 15amonth for premium wireless. And if you haven't made the switch yet, here are 15 reasons why you should. One, it's $15 a month. Two, seriously, it's $15 a month. Three, no big contracts. Four, I use it. Five, my mom uses it.

[Paul Morrow]

Are you.

[Jesse Waters]

Are you playing me off? That's what's happening, right? Okay, give it a try.

[Greg Gutfeld]

@Mintmobile.Com Switch upfront payment of 45 for 3 month plan.

[Emily Compagno]

15 per month equivalent required. New customer offer first 3 months only. Then full price plan options available, taxes and fees extra. See mintmobile.com I will never be afraid to challenge this illegitimate president. We're going to definitely assume we're going to be a real pain in the.

[Jesse Waters]

He's gonna know my name. Personally, I look forward to going into the office of Attorney General every day. Suing him. Tish Getting what she dished New York AG Letitia James, indicted on mortgage fraud. After spending years weaponizing the courts against Trump and his businesses, she's suddenly crying foul about weaponization.

[Emily Compagno]

This is nothing more than a continuation of the President's desperate weaponization of our justice system. These charges are baseless, and the President's own public statements make clear that his only goal is political retribution at any cost.

[Jesse Waters]

But CNN says, what's the big deal? Everybody commits a little mortgage fraud.

[Jillian Turner]

What? Tish James. And again, we're still getting the details, but if it's related to this mortgage issue, I mean, this is something that everyone in America, or many people at least, if you're lucky enough to be able to buy a house in America, you. You deal with this, right? The federal government doesn't go after all of these people for doing this.

[Jesse Waters]

Emily, it looks like they have her dead to rights. She filled out the form, she lied. She even reported the rental income on her taxes.

[Emily Compagno]

Look, I can't speak to what will happen, actually, in court and to the evidence. However. Yes, it seems obvious. And here's what I hate the most about the commentary. The. The concept that either everyone does it or that it's no big deal is such an affront to the millions of Americans that get that pit in our stomach every year when we see the audit or the IRS and have to do our taxes and actually go overboard to make sure that every penny lines up. I have had friends audited for less than a few thousand dollars. I've had clients that have been audited in the $30,000 range or less. And I did a snapshot of what happens in just one year? And in one year alone, for example, the U.S. sentencing Commission has over 57,000 mortgage fraud offenses referred to them. That is that specific charge referred to them. The FBI investigating almost 4,000 in one year, 30% of which are under $1 million. So the concept that somehow it has to be a big deal or it has to be in the millions to have some impact doesn't hold water because good, hardworking Americans follow the law all day, every day. And when you don't, then I guess you become a con man or a carnival barker, which is what the language that this AG use about someone else. That was actually totally innocent.

[Jesse Waters]

Paul, whose post indictment video was better, Comey's or Tish James's?

[Paul Morrow]

Yeah, they're both atrocious. And you know what? The sanctimony embedded in both of them is just so insufferable. And as Emily says, the idea that somehow or other everybody does is just not true. I've brought mortgage fraud cases. Now, you could argue the following, that as a federal case, it's a comparatively low number. But that said, you forget, she is a public servant. She's supposed to be the top law enforcement officer in all of New York State. So that said, that's the justification for doing this this way federally. Let's remember something else. Donald Trump did not indict her in one of the bluest jurisdictions in this country. A jury of her peers. Peers indicted her. And by the way, that's adjacent right there in the Washington area where the Trump administration has lost a number of indictments. They got it through the hero sandwich at the Cup. They didn't get that indictment right in the same area. So it just shows you this is the process. You want to gripe about this, then take it up with the grand jury. There's a couple of overlays. Real quick. The leak that went to msnbc, I think is significant. There's leaks that came out earlier in the week saying, oh, they're not going to go with this case. They decided there's no probable cause. And it was two DOJ members, according to msnbc, that did that leak significantly to msnbc. There needs to be now a follow on leak investigation because that's deep state nonsense. They were trying to put their finger on the scale to say, okay, if this goes this way, we can claim, you know what, we didn't want to bring this case and Trump forced it down our throats.

[Jillian Turner]

And then lastly, happened with Comey.

[Paul Morrow]

Exactly.

[Jillian Turner]

And literally the same thing.

[Paul Morrow]

Remember something, too, in this case, There is a victim in the Trump case that she brought against Trump.

[Emily Compagno]

Exactly.

[Paul Morrow]

There was no victim. The banks were on board. He paid them back. In this case, who lost the $19,000? We did. Yeah, we paid because of Danny.

[Jesse Waters]

Was 19,000 divided by five. We should split it. Gillian?

[Jillian Turner]

Well, I was going to say, in order for everybody to commit this kind of mortgage fraud in America, everybody has to own more than one home, which most people don't. So there's an inherent bias built in there.

[Paul Morrow]

Off got the three reported.

[Jillian Turner]

I mean, this. Emily, you probably can talk to this better than I can, but I was talking to a lawyer earlier who was saying this case is just going to really come down to the paperwork. The defense is going to be kind of built around her claiming or how well she can make the case that this was like her tax attorney's machination. She didn't really have much to do with it or much input or really know about it. So in discovery, when they go through all the emails and whatever else, like, it'll all come out and this will go or not go based on what's in there.

[Emily Compagno]

And also, I mean, no matter what, she materially benefited. And so that whole defense of like, I didn't know better or I'm so sorry. Well, there are remedies that are then commensurate with that. The whole point is if you prove intentionality and you prove intent to deceive, then while the punishment will fit the crime. Sorry, Greg.

[Jesse Waters]

All right, Greg, you know more about fraud than anybody because you are one.

[Greg Gutfeld]

That's right.

[Paul Morrow]

This is Brett Hume.

[Greg Gutfeld]

So my good friend Molly Hemingway once told me, no, I love this because the Dems thought they had a solid like 95% gamble. You could hunt Trump down and hunt other Republicans down under the assumption that they're finished, they're done. But as they say, if you go for the king, you better make sure the job is done. Trump is now the man with no name in High Plains Drifter. The they thought they had him, but now he's painting the town red. You can call it revenge, but I'll get to that. Turnabout is fair play. Remember, nothing that Trump does, whether he doesn't do this or not, is going to affect the Democrats behavior after this. Like, you'll hear people say, like, well, if he does this, then they're going to do that. It's like, no, you're going to do that anyway because you started this mess. This lady's career was predicated on a vow that she was going to take Trump down. Remember, she did that in a video. And the hilarity of the media, the Democrats doing this. Two wrongs don't make a right stuff. I'm sorry. If Jesse punches me in the face, I should be able to punch it back even if I can't reach his face. But the thing is, it's like you don't have that argument. You know, it's like they came after us. That was lawfare. They thought they had it, it was going to be great, but it's wrong. It didn't. And now you got to pay the price. Don't get mad at us. Don't get mad at us. This is justice. So the only solution is mutually assured destruction. If you know that I will fight back. If you attack, then you won't initiate the attack. Jesse won't hit me because he knows I'll hit him back. That's why people have NRA stickers on their front porch, why people have nuclear weapons. So right, Gillian. So right. It's why I wear tight shirts, so people see the muscles in my body. It's a non violent signal to warn off aggressors who think they might be, you know, able to handle it. And, but it says, you know, you're biting off more than you can chew.

[Jesse Waters]

Again, People magazine, world's sexiest man right here.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah.

[Jesse Waters]

Next year.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Is your wearing a half shirt tonight? Yes.

[Jesse Waters]

[Emily Compagno]

Happy Greg. More clashes erupting again outside that ICE facility in Broadview, Illinois near Chicago. Police officers literally had to drag and arrest some of the agitators. Despite scenes like these, a Biden appointed federal judge blocked the Trump administration's deployment of National Guard troops to Chicago. For now, their help is desperately needed. Look at this. In the past week, 38 people were shot in Chicago, 10 of them fatally. But it's all a big fat joke to the state's governor, J.B. pritzker. He went on Jimmy Kimmel show to mock Trump's deployment of the National Guard.

[Greg Gutfeld]

We also got a very special report filed by J.B. pritzker, the governor of Illinois. This is J.B. pritzker.

[Paul Morrow]

Reporting from war torn Chicago. We've seen people being forced to eat.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Hot dogs with ketchup on them and.

[Paul Morrow]

And our deep dish pizza well has gone shallow.

[Greg Gutfeld]

So it's a challenge to survive here in the city of Chicago.

[Paul Morrow]

But there's no hellscape that I'd rather be in.

[Emily Compagno]

I think that that seems to be a larger size. But while Illinois laughs it off, Red state America isn't in Memphis. Tennessee National Guard troops are already on the streets patrolling a blue city that's actually welcoming the president's help. Because the thing is, Greg, look, that J.B. pritzker, that's the, that's the kind of person that is the first person to call 911 or to call for help in an emergency.

[Paul Morrow]

Yeah.

[Greg Gutfeld]

When he's fallen and he can't get up.

[Emily Compagno]

Exactly.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah. Yeah. He slipped and then he's just like rolling around in the bathroom. That was like fat on Stupid Crime when he was on Kimmel. But you know what? Let him have it. Let them do this. If this keeps them busy, you know, it doesn't have any impact. They don't. They never ask themselves what side are they on? Right. It's the Guard is there to assist the feds who are trying to ensure their safety because activists and anti ice protesters are there harassing them. So you have to, well then whose side are you on? They never ask themselves that because whoever's on their side are not the people who are the victims. There are always people like them with their luxury beliefs who can sit there and complain about, oh my God, just the, the optics. The optics of the National Guard being there. Oh my God, we're in armed city. It's like, well, what are the optics that you prefer? People like recidivist criminals, you don't even know the optics because you don't even take the subway anymore. So this is a way to allow. And also Pritzker, what he calls it an invasion. He should remember that, that the Texas National Guard actually fought a real invasion on our border. And thanks to Biden's policies, now they've got to go to Chicago.

[Emily Compagno]

Jesse, when, when are that governor and those kind of people going to learn that who's voting them in and who they're serving is not their Tick Tock followers. It's not the 20 year old, you know, giving digital data in the office. It's actually in his case, it's Americans that are dying under his watch. Will that ever click?

[Jesse Waters]

No. I mean, Chicago is a killing field. There's more shootings in Chicago. Than any other city. They're on pace for almost 500 homicides this year. And they have 110,000 gang members in the city. Almost 10% of the city's illegal. So he's in this major confrontation with the commander in chief over law and order, over life and death, and he's joking around with a low rated comedian who just got benched over an assassination. Quip, that is a dumb idea. He also just mocked Kristi Noem for playing dress up. Meanwhile, he's squeezing into an extra large flak jacket. I Woke up Jesse Jr. This morning before school. I said, jesse, it's time. He said, dad, why does Trump get credit for seeking peace overseas but not for seeking peace here?

[Greg Gutfeld]

Great question.

[Jesse Waters]

I said, that's a good point. So he said, why is peace through strength so effective abroad, but not in Chicago? And he said, why does Hollywood put all these good guys with guns in movies, but when Trump puts good guys with guns in Chicago, it's bad. This kid's smart. He will take my job.

[Jillian Turner]

I was just.

[Jesse Waters]

They won't have to change the name of the show.

[Jillian Turner]

He should fill in for you. Have you invited.

[Jesse Waters]

I should take more days off.

[Emily Compagno]

All right, so let me sort of rephrase that question to you, Paul. Why is it so offensive to these governors that President Trump actually wants to serve the American people and actually protect the American people on the streets?

[Paul Morrow]

Because he wants to be president. Right. I mean, that's the case with Pritzker. Same thing with Newsom. This is all political. Obviously, if you actually go by the metrics that matter as opposed to playing with the numbers. Oh, the shootings are down, the murders are down. But not compared to 2020. The numbers that they're on pace for relative to the stuff that matters in New York, you'd have to go back, like to 1990. Okay, look at, let's just look at the metrics that are real. For instance, number one, Illinois is behind only New York and California in outward bound migration. All right, Businesses that have left, Citadel, Morton, Boeing, Caterpillar. I could go on, think about all that. There's a reason they're leaving. Hello. But I want to go on to one thing really specific here. ShotSpotter, if you've never heard of it, that's what this is. It's essentially a glorified speaker. But it picks up, all right, it's a microphone. It picks up shots that are fired. Most shots fired jobs don't go to the police. They're not reported. So this is a program New York has It. It works terrifically well. We piloted here. They put it in Chicago. Here's where the rubber hits the road. It's working, right? Brandon Johnson comes in. He says, you know what? It's racist. It's over policing black and Hispanic neighborhoods. We're going to get rid of it. And then what he does is he says, oh, wait a minute. We got the DNC delay getting rid of it, right? So they were supposed to get rid of it in February. And he finds out we got the DNC for August. He kicks getting rid of it to August. That tells you all you need to know. To September. Rather, he did it a month after the dnc because he knows it works. And it just goes to the heart of the issue. Who gets killed, who gets shot. Young black men, period. That's what the numbers show. That's who's doing it. But you know what? They don't care, because he wants to be president. And that's the truth to this guy.

[Emily Compagno]

And the saddest thing in that subset. So 85% we know are young black Americans, but up to 20%, and sometimes even more are under the age of 20. And that J.B. pritzker, governor, is just mocking their lives, too.

[Jillian Turner]

I was thinking while Paul was talking that the argument, when it comes to Chicago, for folks who don't know, it kind of mirrors the argument. The anti National Guard troop argument mirrors D.C. and people say, well, you only need National Guard troops sent into certain pockets because the crime rates in different areas are so different. But it actually popped on my radar on Tuesday that the Chicago PD have now issued a warning about violent robberies in downtown Chicago. Talking. Targeting people who are on their own. There has been a spate of violent crime targeting people who are by themselves, which obviously, you know, usually impacts women greatly. But that's not the point. The point is that even downtown Chicago seems to be struggling, according to the Chicago pd. I don't know. I've never been to Chicago, which is maybe weird. So I know what?

[Greg Gutfeld]

I never been to Chicago.

[Jillian Turner]

It is weird.

[Greg Gutfeld]

It's a problem.

[Paul Morrow]

I don't know.

[Jillian Turner]

I should go.

[Emily Compagno]

Don't visit anytime soon.

[Jillian Turner]

It looks great.

[Greg Gutfeld]

No, it's actually.

[Jesse Waters]

I mean, maybe we had a fun time at the dmc.

[Greg Gutfeld]

That we did.

[Jesse Waters]

I mean, me and you, mostly.

[Jillian Turner]

Yes.

[Greg Gutfeld]

We never left the hotel.

[Jesse Waters]

All right, guys.

[Emily Compagno]

Well, up. Up next, Katie Porter is going psycho on her staffers. If you're an illegal alien.

[Paul Morrow]

Welcome back. It's been a tough week for California gubernatorial candidate Katie Porter. See, I said it as even more Video clips surfaced of her psychotic behavior towards staffers on the heels of that disastrous CBS interview.

[Emily Compagno]

I'm saying to you, is that.

[Jesse Waters]

Well, to those voters.

[Jillian Turner]

Okay, so, so you.

[Emily Compagno]

I don't want to keep doing this. I'm going to call it. Hang on one second, everybody. Yes. Yes. We should have. Yes. Okay, everybody. I'm not that dark and the state could lose. Get out of my shot.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Wow.

[Paul Morrow]

So Greg, you're insufferable as well.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yes, she's my spirit animal.

[Jillian Turner]

I thought that was bad.

[Paul Morrow]

What's your take? Good.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Well, it's, I think I've said it before. It's rare to see a natural beauty like her. And when you're a 10, you expect a measure of respect, you know, from your, from your employees. She's so hot. And especially when she's passionate. She reminds me of the lady who cuts in line at the express lane at the store and she's got more than the 15 items that are the maximum and they are all battery powered. I love, I love this angry overflowed sack of ego and carbs. This is the best thing to happen to my show in a year. Stelzer was getting old. Jerry, Nadler, Pritzker, they're smelly. More so than usual. She's, she has everything you loathe in a liberal, entitled, arrogant, self serving. She's got. No, she didn't get into politics to help people. It was to help herself. And you can see it. And I do believe she's unstable. I mean, they looked at Player office. She's a single mom. She's a single mom because the dude ran screaming from her because she's nuts. She's so arrogant. She doesn't think that she has to win anybody over. That's why she got mad about the follow up questions. Read more about her. Man, she's nuts.

[Jillian Turner]

Good thing Greg didn't take too long so we have time to get to all the topics.

[Paul Morrow]

That's true. So Jesse, has anybody ever dumped mashed potatoes on you?

[Jesse Waters]

No, but if they did, I just opened my mouth. I love mashed potatoes. I like it when they pour the butter and it creates like a little lake inside the mashed potato, the hot butter. Oh yeah, it's the best. What was the question? So this woman and Greg touched on it, but I'm going to make it more of a bigger point. Just kidding. He always does that to me.

[Emily Compagno]

It's so annoying.

[Jesse Waters]

He's like.

[Greg Gutfeld]

I'm going to make it smarter.

[Jesse Waters]

Yeah. She's now crossed over from just like one of These crazy politicians. She's like a meme.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah.

[Jesse Waters]

You're going to see this woman for years and she's going to descend and she's going to descend and she's going to descend so low she might do Greg show.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yes.

[Jesse Waters]

That's what we're looking at here.

[Paul Morrow]

Wow.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Call me psycho.

[Paul Morrow]

So can you say gubernatorial?

[Emily Compagno]

I feel like this is like the opposite of shallow. How where most people you think that they're like the shallow how point where someone is like that on the inside and on the outside they're a supermodel. But she looks like that on the inside. Like she is a animal ugly individual on the inside.

[Jesse Waters]

Are you saying she thinks she's a ten?

[Emily Compagno]

No, I'm saying that she's a one through and through. Because per our conversation yesterday, when you are mean and terrible to people, that is the ugliest thing you can ever be. If you are kind, then you are beautiful no matter what. See what I'm saying? She had to go to anger management classes during her divorce. She's a mom of. She had a live in boyfriend and la la, whatever. She lives on the Irvine campus for like a couple hundred thousand dollars when the homes are worth like millions. Whatever. I forgot my main point. Oh, it is that you can't. I mean sort of. There's no way that someone who behaves like that can be in a public office and can be considered a servant. I have this meme that I feel like sort of funnily sums me up, but it really doesn't. And it says after a long day of being nice and it's this person that that like is sitting in a chair and they peeled off their humanity and then inside it's like a demon and they're smoking a cigarette, like drinking a beer. And on the walls the pictures of like the beautiful self, whatever during the day. But I feel like that's my point. She is like that on the inside and the outside just a mean, terrible.

[Jesse Waters]

You're mean, you're fake nice. Is that what you feel?

[Emily Compagno]

I think it's funny.

[Paul Morrow]

It's like she's an awful person.

[Emily Compagno]

No, I'm not. No, I am. That's why it's like funny, because it's ironic.

[Paul Morrow]

We're having an unusual show today. Take yourself.

[Jillian Turner]

I mean, all I'm going to say is you guys must have never been to D.C. because if you think that you have to be nice to run for public office, you got something else coming for you. That was.

[Jesse Waters]

You haven't been to Chicago.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah. Let me Let me tell you about.

[Jillian Turner]

The cities I have been to L. A. Because Jesse was asking me that in the commercial break. Okay, so take that.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Okay.

[Paul Morrow]

She's probably going to win.

[Greg Gutfeld]

I was on a connecting flight, and.

[Jillian Turner]

I grew up, and I can't count.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Connecting flights as a city you've been to.

[Emily Compagno]

Exit the airport.

[Paul Morrow]

We got to go. All right, fan mail Friday is up next.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Are they hot? All right, first question from Nancy. Is there something you believed 10 years ago and now have the opposite opinion? Jesse, say the moon landing.

[Jesse Waters]

When was that election that was stolen.

[Emily Compagno]

What's that, 10 years ago?

[Jesse Waters]

It feels like just yesterday. I go back and forth on the election, Greg. Like, at first I definitely thought it was stolen, and then I couldn't prove it. And then now, after everything else that's come out that we've been right about, probably stolen, you just can't prove it.

[Greg Gutfeld]

You can't prove it. One of those things. How about you, Jillian?

[Jillian Turner]

I used to think that everybody else was smarter than me, and then I finally realized that I'm actually smarter than everybody else.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Wow. Wow, wow.

[Jesse Waters]

Still never been to Chicago?

[Emily Compagno]

Yeah. I don't know.

[Greg Gutfeld]

You are one humble lady.

[Paul Morrow]

It's Abraham.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah, Abraham.

[Emily Compagno]

By the way, that was a joke.

[Jillian Turner]

I feel like I need to address whatever.

[Greg Gutfeld]

I'm sorry. We're stupid.

[Paul Morrow]

This is an easy one. I did not think that Donald Trump could win.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah.

[Paul Morrow]

You know, that's just the first thing that comes to mind. You know, as somebody who voted for him the first time around, I said, you know, I gotta vote for this guy, but I don't like everybody else. I remember where I was that night. That was a big night. Yeah.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Emily.

[Emily Compagno]

This is totally boring, but I believed that I would hate escargot. I tried it, and they were delicious.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Really.

[Emily Compagno]

And also, I would say that 10 years ago, there were certain, like, celebrities that I grew up being like, oh, my gosh, I love them. And then after the Trump situation and seeing how deranged that kind of thing, like, now when I see them, I'm like, like, I used to love those 90s rom coms and, like, Lola, whatever. And now I'm like, you guys are so annoying.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah.

[Emily Compagno]

Should I name them?

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yes, yes.

[Emily Compagno]

For example, Mark Ruffalo would be one. Yes, it's Springsteen.

[Jesse Waters]

Ruffalo.

[Emily Compagno]

Whatever.

[Greg Gutfeld]

No, it's Ruffalo.

[Emily Compagno]

Ruffalo. Springsteen. The one that makes me laugh all the time but is totally annoying.

[Jesse Waters]

Greg.

[Emily Compagno]

No. Anyway, whatever, Go ahead.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Somebody gets something I believed 10 years ago and now of the opposite opinion. Santa Claus.

[Jesse Waters]

Craig.

[Greg Gutfeld]

No, I believe.

[Jesse Waters]

Now you believe. Oh, right.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Do we have time for one more?

[Emily Compagno]

Yes.

[Greg Gutfeld]

What TV show did you watch as a child that you stream now as an adult?

[Paul Morrow]

Ooh.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Well, you're too smart for this question, Jillian.

[Jillian Turner]

I have Paul answer.

[Paul Morrow]

I don't stream it, but the show that holds up for me is the Odd Couple.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Ah, interesting.

[Paul Morrow]

I think there's only been three great situations in American history. It is the honeymoon is the Odd Couple and the Office, the rest of them are secondary.

[Jesse Waters]

The Office.

[Paul Morrow]

There you go.

[Greg Gutfeld]

There you go.

[Jesse Waters]

Just discovered it.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Emily, what did you watch as a child that you stream as an adult?

[Emily Compagno]

Tales from the Crypt. Weirdly, we weren't really allowed to watch TV, but my sister watched a lot of the 80 shows, whatever. And so now I feel like. I. I don't know, I feel like movies would have been a better. Yeah, I could do movies.

[Jesse Waters]

And the wonder movies. Kevin Arnold.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yes, Kevin Arnold Days. What about you, Jillian?

[Jillian Turner]

I recently streamed Return to Oz, which is not a TV show, it's a movie, but it holds up 30 years later.

[Emily Compagno]

Nice.

[Jillian Turner]

It's terrifying.

[Emily Compagno]

Is that the one with the little girl?

[Jillian Turner]

It's like the part two. It's like the sequel to the wizard of Oz.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Who cares?

[Emily Compagno]

But she was digital and weird.

[Jillian Turner]

Yes.

[Emily Compagno]

And it's sort of like.

[Jillian Turner]

And there's heads that are all the different types.

[Greg Gutfeld]

It's like, yap, yap, yap. What did I watch as a child that I streamed now as an adult? Obviously. Eyes wide shut. All right, one more thing's up next. Tommy Copper, shoulder support.

[Jillian Turner]

Welcome back. It is time for One more Thing. Greg, you're all right. Most ripped you get to go first.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Time for my pitch tonight. Oh, this is great. We have Cat, we have Emily, but we also have Dr. Drew and Adam Corolla together. It's like a Loveline reunion. It's amazing. Let's do this. Greg's Drunk Panda News with Brit Hume. I love a good newborn panda. You know, I love to nap and just check out this little panda from the Chengdu research base in China. Me and my good friend Juan Williams would often go out to China and look at the pandas. Just pandas, Jesse. They sleep up to 20 hours a day and they're Emily. They're born pink and furless, but they slowly grow white for Jillian and then black fur as they get older. As my good friend Molly Hemingway would say, Yep, that looks like a panda.

[Emily Compagno]

Cute.

[Jillian Turner]

I'm tempted to just stay here for the rest of the show, but, Jesse.

[Jesse Waters]

I mean, I intercede my whole turn. Can you put that back up? I can't take my eyes off that.

[Emily Compagno]

Beautiful.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Such a beautiful panda.

[Emily Compagno]

Look at that.

[Paul Morrow]

That.

[Jesse Waters]

Well, the Yankee season is over.

[Greg Gutfeld]

They're.

[Jesse Waters]

They'll probably go to Cancun. But these guys that ran out onto the field, they're probably going to jail. Look at these two dudes coming up. Ah, got him. God, I love when they get them. Tonight, Jesse Waters. Prime time, A mystery guest. It is not Dr. Seagull. I swear, it's not him.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Eight o'.

[Paul Morrow]

Clock.

[Jillian Turner]

Oh, wait, who's next? All right. All right, Emily, you're next.

[Emily Compagno]

Guys, I wanted to tell you about a very special sneaker company. When Billy Price was a freshman at U Dub, he fell out of a window three stories and landed on his head on concrete, breaking his neck and paralyzing him from the chest down. And he was faced with a challenge of reimagining everyday life. So when he couldn't find footwear that was functional and stylish and could be put on independently, he and Darren Donaldson teamed up to create a solution not just for Billy, but for everyone. So they founded Billy Footwear. They make shoes that fit everyone. Freedom in every step. Go to BillyFootwear.com to learn more.

[Jillian Turner]

Paul, your last. You got two seconds. Your time's up.

[Paul Morrow]

Bottom line is the Giants beat the Eagles. And it's seriously not that I care.

[Jillian Turner]

About literally all the time.

[Jesse Waters]

I miss Jessica literally all the time.
