Interesting, informative, thought provoking and funny show in America on air and on the World Wide Web.
Byron Donalds
This is the Rob Carson Show.
Rob Carson
This is the Rob Carson show, hour number two on a Thursday, the the 9th of October already. Can you believe it? Already the 9th of October. A lot of stuff in the, in the air today. We're going to get into going after antifa in America cities. Also cleaning up Chicago, the Democrat Party and Democrats like Jamie Tetzler. Pritzker, Prickler. Pritzker. Pritzker and of course Brandon Johnson, who has a 6% approval rating which is right above toenail fungus. They, they're, they're going to be, they're going to get rolled over, not physically, but they're going to get rolled over by, by the National Guard presence and then of course by just the people in, in Chicago who are tired of the bull crap and the people in Portland who are tired of the bull crap from the, from the left. So that, that is going on. Of course, we got a, the, the beginnings of a Middle Eastern peace deal. You may recall if you listen to this radio program. I've been saying that's going to happen. I said, you know, we're going to have this worldwide movement toward freedom and God and not the radical Islam form of God. And that peace would come to the Middle East. Anyone who's corresponded with me, I've said if peace is going to happen in the Middle east, it's going to happen now. And, and also I think freedom's coming to Venezuela. I think eventually freedom's going to come to Cuba. I think radical Islam is going to be driven from the shores of England. It may take a little longer there, but good is coming, good is circling the globe. Here's Donald Trump talking about the Middle east peace deal. And again, right now it's about getting the hostages released.
Byron Donalds
I think you're going to see all of that disappear. I think you're going to see people getting along and you'll See Gaza being rebuilt. We're forming a council that I think.
Rob Carson
That what Israelis ought to do is they ought to hire the quote, unquote people, Palestinians to build a new Luxor hotel, which is a pyramid shaped hotel. So have the, the Palestinians build a, a pyramid like they did with the Jews, except for we're going to pay them this time. They want to be enslaved. But just right there on the shore, I think it'd be great, have a Luxor, I'd be going there.
Byron Donalds
The Council of Peace, we think it's going to be called and it's going to be very powerful and it's going.
Judge Jeanine
To really, I think to a large.
Byron Donalds
Extent it's going to have a lot to do with the whole Gaza situation. People are going to be taken care of. It's going to be a different world. I think really the Middle east came together. Amazingly, they came together. You know, they have some countries with extraordinary wealth and just spending a small portion of that wealth can do so much for that.
Rob Carson
And what Donald Trump is doing is he's using tariff, he's using trade and he's saying that if you want to continue warring, then you're going to have to pay for it on your own because we're going to end trade and we're going to tear a few into oblivion. There's a multi level game going on worldwide. All of the peace deals in this fashion. And Donald Trump went to Saudi Arabia and Qatar just a couple months ago, was given a king's welcome like we've never seen before. And that was part of the deal. Bombing Iran's nuclear facilities. Bombing. Part of the deal. Part of the deal. It's, it's layered. It's layered is what it is. Dan in Baltimore wants to talk about it. Dan, welcome to the Rob Carson Show. What's up?
Byron Donalds
Hey, man, I missed you the other couple weeks ago. You were supposed to be here in town for something and we were gonna go and then heard you weren't gonna be there.
Rob Carson
But I'm not sure about that. Go ahead, go ahead.
Byron Donalds
I think the Israeli people are going to live to regret making any deal because unless and until Hamas is totally destroyed, they're going to come back. My understanding is planned and helped carry out the October incident a couple years ago.
Rob Carson
Yeah.
Byron Donalds
Was one of the people that was released a bunch of years earlier by the Israelis in exchange for something. Why they keep making these deals knowing full well that the Arabs aren't going to uphold the deal.
Rob Carson
What Arabs are we talking about here?
Byron Donalds
Well, because there's no such thing as a Palestinian. Yeah, they're all Arabs. Yeah, and Israel made peace with the surrounding Arab neighbors thanks to the Abram Accord. Yes, and. But Hamas and Hezbollah are nothing but terrorists.
Rob Carson
I understand that, but. But let me ask you this, Let me ask you this. Hold on a second. I. Listen, I'm just learning about all this. I'm not an expert in Middle Eastern, you know, policy and all of this, but he's going to secure the release of the hostages. That is their trump card, for lack of a better expression. So if Hamas gives up the hostages, that would give Israel and the United States permission to bomb them into oblivion, should they try anything.
Byron Donalds
You mean if they don't.
Rob Carson
If they try anything, if they try to pick a fight, if they try to, you know, do an incursion, if they try to do some sort of attack. Once you have the hostage out of the situation, you've given. Given up their only bargaining chip, and consequently, you've given them US permission to eliminate them from the planet. Do you understand? From that perspective?
Byron Donalds
But that will keep them from coming back in and taking more hostages. And then the cycle, well, you, you.
Rob Carson
Prevent them from doing that. And if they try it again, you bomb the bloody snot out of them.
Byron Donalds
And because you're.
Rob Carson
Now, now you're just, you're speaking in, in these, these, you know, kind of, you know, different scenarios that haven't happened. The most important scenario is that we got the hostages back. We're going to get the hostages back on Monday. That changes the game. You know what I'm saying? And listen, I understand, I understand your reticence because this is radical Islam, but once you give up those hostages, then you give up a lot. It doesn't matter. You can't just say, well, they might get more hostages. And then. No, no, no, no. You have to realize that getting those hostages ends their ability to negotiate and unleashes hell on them should they try anything else. I gotta run. Thanks for the phone call, Do. I appreciate it. I understand your residence. I have the same thing I'd rather have. We just bomb the snot out of them. I've said evacuate the innocent, raise Gaza, Raz, Gaza. And every time I put that up on Twitter, they flagged me. But, you know, I'm going to. I'm going to Donald Trump's doing a great job. And like I said, once you get rid of that bargaining chip of the hostages, then they're sitting there naked. I would like every one of the bastards who they had in jail to be lined up against a wall. Hell yeah. And we will see what happens after the hostages are returned. That's supposed to happen on Monday, but right now, the most important thing, and then beyond all of the other ruminations about what could happen and what if they do this and what if they do that? Let's just worry about getting the hostages and we'll take it from there. We do have every Arab state stepping forward and saying we want to get this deal done peacefully. There you go. Those are the two big deals. All the Arab states are involved saying thumbs up, we're going to be peaceful and the hostages coming back on Monday. Then we'll take it from there. Because if Hamas epsilon with them one more time, they're going to get blown the snot out of. They will be. They will send Israeli special forces in and they will find all of them and they will, they will take them out. That's what will happen should they decide to try anything like this again. So we'll see. Like I said, I. I can't. I'm not an expert on this stuff. I just have common sense and life experience and all that. That's kind of what I have. That's what I'm good at.

Going to be talking about Antifa, the really awesome meeting yesterday with Pam Bondi and others in the in the Oval Office that's coming up on the Rob Carson show. Don't go anywhere. Poor little Democrats. Are you guys okay today that I came in to check on you? Every time Trump does something good, you guys spread fast out. Would you guys shut up and let him work? It is Rob Garson show. Byron Donald joins us at the bottom of the hour. The Byron Donalds, I remember having him on a few years ago. Hell, it's only been like four years ago. I had him on for the first time as a freshman congressman. He's going to be running for governor of Florida. He was my choice, by the way, for Donald Trump's running mate. But we'll talk to him about the bottom of the hour, see what's up with him as well. Right here in Washington, D.C. where I live now, D.C. police arrested a man with hundreds of explosive devices alongside a church holding a mass in honor of the Supreme Court. The man had a manifesto that suggested he was targeting the Supreme Court and Catholics. Luis Garra, 41 year old from Arizona and New Jersey was apprehended outside the Cathedral of St. Matthews the Apostle on the 5th. They were getting ready to have their Red Mass. Who attends the Red Mass there? Well, a lot of big names like John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett. You didn't know that, did you? Yeah. Jerry was occupying a green tent on the steps of the church when police attempted to clear the area. He told police, you might want to stay back and call the federales. I have explosives. I was, I'm aware that the Red Mass police wrote and threatened to blow throw a bomb into the street as a demonstration, saying, I have hundreds of them. He had a manifesto revealed his significant animosity toward the Catholic Church, members of the Jewish faith, members of SCOTUS and ice, ICE facilities, the same damned modus operandi as Charlie Kirk's shooter as the one who shot up the ICE facility. This is A civil war fomented by the Democrat Party. How do we know this? Because they're using the same modus operandi and the same friggin language. Alleged Palisades fire arsonist Jonathan Reinderkite donated to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Isn't that amazing? Jonathan Reinder Necht Reindernecht shelled out a couple dollars to the hybrid PAC Blue act blue on two separate occasions, just days apart in 2020. 2020. Didn't have a lot of money because you know, he's a democrat leftist. By the way, it killed 12 people. The fire killed 12 people. Obliterated 7,000 homes and buildings. $150 billion in damage. He's facing the death penalty. Oh, I hope he gets it. I'd like to see burning at the stake, to be quite honest. Like to see burning at the stake, to be honest. He, he literally on chat GPT said that he had burnt a Bible and he felt good and liberated afterwards. Among other things. He was anti ice as well, you know, so you know, so you know, it's the same damn thing. Here's Judge Janine. Judge Jeanine was talking about this last night on the TV about what is coming to the left. And by the way, all of these are connected. Same goes with the arson attacks on TESL dealerships. The same language being used by the left, the same bad actors. Antiva, of course has burned its way across the country since before 2020. Give me a friggin break. Everybody knows about it. It's real, it's real, it's real and it's about to get real for them. Here is Judge Jeanine.
Judge Jeanine
It could have been very big and we'll know for sure.
Rob Carson
Talking about the bombing that could have happened on the Catholic Church, by the way, didn't this sound a whole lot like, I don't know, Nazi Germany going after the Jews and the Catholics using words like fascist, all of that. Yeah, yeah. It's the exact same playbook.
Judge Jeanine
Tomorrow when we get the information we need from the FBI, Huntsville, Alabama, where their bomb testing is done and we'll move it into federal court. But these are repeated acts that we're seeing over and over again. And there is this belief and you know, even with the sentencing of the man who attempted to assassinate the Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh, I mean there's this thought that, you know, you're not really going to get punished, you're going to get away with it. It'll be swept under the rug the way these attacks on Christians and Catholics were during the last administration, not under President Trump, not certainly not in the nation's capital.
Rob Carson
Yeah, I do believe that Joe Biden sic the DOJ on Catholics and Christian conservative. It's a plan. The Democrat Party, the deep state left can't be allowed to continue to exist. They have to be driven out of existence. They're doing a good job on their own. Was very clear. This is related to the Democrat Party and the left in the deep state. All of these attacks, they have the same fingerprint. Duh, Dear God. Now what's really scary is that this attack on this church, on this church could have been Oklahoma City.
Judge Jeanine
And this is a classic example of what we have seen in the last few weeks. The Annunciation School, that church in Minnesota where 19 children were shot. And then we have the Joe Biden.
Rob Carson
And the Democrats have had it in for the Catholic Church since they lost on Roe v. Wade. The conservative Christians and the Catholic Church have had a target on their backs. They have committed hundreds of acts against churches and pro life centers around the country. This is Nazi Germany. This is Stalin's Russia Church of the Latter Day Saints.
Judge Jeanine
This past weekend another Christian church where there were people who were shot. The church went into, was into a blaze. And then we've got this where we've got a Catholic church. He was there ready to go. And you know, not to mention in the shadow of Charlie Kirk who was someone who believed in not only free speech but religious freedom. So what we've got now is a president who's not going to take it. We're taking these crimes very seriously and we are going to in a preliminary hearing tomorrow, assuming that we get the judgment and the evidence that we need, we will move this to federal court based upon what we believe is nitromethane, which is a substance that was used by the Oklahoma City.
Rob Carson
Yeah, it's getting real. And the left is going to get its ass kicked up between its shoulders 1,000%. I, you know, I don't like to use that kind of language but sometimes you got to do, you got to do. Here is Aaron Burnett on CNN saying that after this meeting yesterday on Capitol Hill with Pam Bondi and others and, and journalists who've been attacked, victimized by antifa, basically saying Antifa doesn't exist.
Judge Jeanine
And Trump, Secretary of Homeland Security actually took that further. This network of antifa is just as sophisticated as Ms. 13, as TDA, as ISIS, as Hezbollah, as Hamas, as all of them. They are just as dangerous. That's pretty incredible, right? Hamas has just been engaged in a Two year war that we just announced the first stage of a peace plan to a few moments ago. And isis. These are incredible things to say. And obviously I'm not going to sit here and defend anybody who considers themselves part of an antifa move. Such that it is. But such that it is is the operative part of that sentence. Antifa is far from a major sophisticated terror organization.
Rob Carson
Yes, it is. It's worldwide, you dumb bleep. It's freaking worldwide. It was behind the summer of 2020, you ignoramus.
Judge Jeanine
Like Hezbollah, Hamas or ISIS. In fact, it's not even like far right groups like the Proud Boys and Oath.
Rob Carson
Oh no, are you kidding me?
Judge Jeanine
Which have had national leaders, unlike Antifa.
Rob Carson
Oh my God in heaven. Let's get an idea of the. The tentacles of Antifa.
Judge Jeanine
This is not just a story about violence and chaos as you alluded to, Mr. President. This is a money story. And at the Government Accountability Institute, my colleague and I, Peter Schweitzer and my eye and our team, we followed the money and we followed it to the top of what we call the protest Industrial Complex Riot Inc. And we found a network of NGOs. It's not just the Soros Network, the Open Society Network, it's other funding networks. The Arabella Funding Network, the Tides Funding Network, Neville Roy Singham and his network, Foreign cash and it's also big left wing funders. Some of them are not citizens of this country. Mr. Hans Jorg Wyss of Switzerland. They're pouring.
Rob Carson
I don't believe that the proud boys have $100 million in US taxpayer money flowing into these funding networks. Open Society, Arabella, Tides Foundation, Neville Roy Singham, Johan Hanjorg, a billionaire from Switzerland. All of this Proud Boys does not have $100 million in billions in rolling from around the world. My God, Aaron Burnett, just quit your damn job and do something else for a living. Byron Donalds joins us next. I promise you it's going to be amazing. You know how I know that? Because Byron Donald's is next. Don't go anywhere.
Judge Jeanine
There was a deal that was sort of jointly negotiated by the outgoing Biden administration, the incoming Trump administration. That was also multiple phases. The first phase was the release of some hostages, a cessation of bombing that never got to phase two the first time around. Instead, the war continued after that. So your, your point is well taken. Do you think there's a role. Do you worry that Trump wants to get the Nobel Prize on Friday?
Rob Carson
There you go. That is Chris Hayes trying to. I guess I don't even know what to say. He's saying that Joe Biden, who did nothing but put a lid on his day at 9am and occasionally probably mess his pants, got the ball rolling. And the only reason Donald Trump is doing this is to win the Nobel Prize. I mean, honestly, wow. Is there any reason why that CNN and MSNBC are dead? Joining us on the Newsmax hotline is a superstar in the Republican Party. I remember when I interviewed him a few years ago as a freshman congressman. And he has since just had a meteoric rise and it's continuing. Byron Donalds joins us on the Newsmax hotline. How are you doing, my friend?
Byron Donalds
I'm doing great, man. Talk about, you know, earth shattering. I think the President, his work in the Middle east, him and his team, obviously Marco Rubio, Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner has been a part of this deal. You know, they've been really focused on peace. So it's a great time to be alive. We still have to deal with Democrats on Capitol Hill.
Rob Carson
But, you know, this is remarkable, Byron, and I'm seeing all the pieces come into place. And listen, there's still a lot of balls in the air. We're still worried about what Hamas is going to do. Number one is ceasefire and getting hostages home. But now we're starting to see pieces like why Donald Trump blew up Iran's nuclear facilities, how it's come into play here, why Donald Trump was welcomed in Saudi and Qatar and negotiated trade deals, and why he's been using the tariffs. It's 3D chess and it's resulted in this. You don't realize how complicated, a lot of people don't realize how complicated this has been. But this is the culmination of a lot of stuff.
Byron Donalds
It is. And I think, especially if you're going to be able to move agreements like this where they've frankly been almost impossible to get to just to get to this point. A lot of that has been because we've had leadership in the United States over the past several decades that, to be blunt, were just weak. They were weak. They were actually not, not very bright, not very smart. They were too busy listening to the D.C. lingo on foreign policy as opposed to knowing how to position and leverage yourself to being in a prime position to get these kind of deals done. I mean, the Iranian nuclear facility, the reason why that strike was so critical is because it put the whole Middle. It put the Middle east on notice. Yes, that's what it did. More than anything. It put them on notice for, number one to say, look, we're not going to continue to tolerate a lot of this. The talking points that come from these radical regimes, when on the backside they're just going to continue nuclear ambitions or terrorist ambitions. And number two, it actually helped a lot of the other Arab states because they didn't want a nuclear Iran either. And so it actually demonstrated credibility for the president to be able to get these other countries on board, to be able to get to a point where we are right now with these hostages. Looks like they'll be coming home finally.
Rob Carson
Now, this is an interesting. And I was thinking about this last night. I was talking to, I know Bridget Gabriel and Brigitte. Gabriel's very concerned about Hamas and all this. And I said, you know, if you get the ceasefire and you get the hostages, you are taking a major tool from Hamas because if we get the hostages and they try anything like a military move or an attempt to take hostages, it's over for them. So what do you think? What do you think, your personal opinion, Byron? Donald, what's next here and what happens to Gaza and what happens to the members of Hamas because, you know, they've lived their entire lives to kill the Jews. What's next, man?
Byron Donalds
Well, I agree with you. I think the ball, if this deal holds, there's a ceasefire and the hostages come home, the ball is now in the court of whatever remains of the Hamas leadership. They can choose to live in peace with Israel, they can choose to weaponize and begin to actually have a stable economy, stable services, whether it's healthcare, education for their people, or they can continue down the same line. And I'm going to tell you right now, they continue down the same line, there's not going to be Hamas leadership for much longer because it won't be tolerated. That's the position that they're in. That's where Donald Trump has now positioned the Middle east. And that's a good thing. I think the era of the, of the quote, unquote, experts on foreign policy who would say that you got to have a two state solution. That's a joke. It's been a joke for 15 years. Years. There's about time that nobody, I'm glad nobody's really talking about that anymore.
Rob Carson
They've had a two state solution, but they blew it, Byron. They had a two state solutions to 2005 and they elected Hamas, for God's sake. I'm glad that this has come to this. We realize that a 2, 2 state solution has not worked.
Byron Donalds
Yep, it's not. It has not worked. It only worked in Model UN it didn't work in the real world. And so, you know that we're past that. Let's see where we go. But this is going to be in the hands of what's left of Hamas leadership. They can choose to enter into normal relations with Israel and quite frankly, with the other countries in that region, or they can continue down the road that they're going. But like I said, they won't be around much longer if they choose to do that.
Rob Carson
You know, some of the same dynamics happening in America's cities with Antiva, with the anti Islam or the pro Hamas, anti Israeli, all of these groups have, have operated on the same kind of modus operandi. Donald Trump is doing something very similar, like he did in the Middle east, using trade and tariffs. He is going after their financing. Yesterday there was a big summit at the White House about Antifa. What's, what's next for Antifa in places like Portland? And what's up with, with Donald Trump moving into end crime in cities like Chicago and, and, you know, in Memphis? What do you suppose?
Byron Donalds
Well, I think they both are focused on the same end goal. We know that the Democrats are using antifa and these other front groups is Astroturf to push their radical agenda that they don't have popular support for. That's what they've been doing for a long time. So looking at how they finance themselves, exposing that to the American people, finding ways to cut that off, that is the appropriate tactical response right now. Glad the White House is leading on that effort. And I think you dovetail that with him using National Guard troops to essentially be in these cities to help them be safe. Look, Chicago's down 2,000 police officers. Yes, they're down 2,000 officers. They will tell you in Chicago that 50% of their murders happen on 17 street corners. 17. So if you have National Guard troops in Chicago who are just there as a deterrent, the same way they're here in Washington, D.C. they're just there as a deterrent to walk the streets to help people feel safe. It actually gives the Chicago Police Department or the Memphis Police Department or any other police department the ability to focus their resources on the areas of the city where most of the crime happens. You get that under control with local law enforcement, and then you gotta have DA's who are gonna do the right thing and prosecute crime and hold people accountable. That's how your cities are safe. So what Donald Trump is doing, he's making Democrats look real stupid. He's saying, look, I got these National Guardsmen, they're members of every community in America. We will deploy them to help you get your city under control. The Democrats are saying, oh, you can't do that. We don't need that help. And the citizens are like, are you crazy?
Rob Carson
Yes.
Byron Donalds
Like, yes, please. Like, yeah, we need help because the way the Democrats have run these cities into the ground, it has not worked. So Donald Trump is providing solutions and leadership, and I love it.
Rob Carson
Byron Donalds, can you hold on to the next break? I'd like to talk to you about how D.C. has changed since Donald Trump took office. I just moved here, by the way, three months ago. Also the shutdown. What do you see there then? Also your plans in the state of Florida. Can you stick around for that, my friend?
Byron Donalds
Sure.
Rob Carson
I appreciate that very much. More with Congressman Byron Donalds on the Rob Carson show in a minute. Stick around.
Judge Jeanine
We're not going to stop at just arresting the violent criminals we can see in the streets. Fighting crime is more than just getting the bad guy off the streets. It's breaking down the organization brick by brick, just like we did with cartels. We're going to take the same approach. President Trump with antifa.
Rob Carson
I love it. I absolutely love it. That is Bambondi. And they are taking a, an amazing step toward ending the nonsense that is ruled in America's cities, particularly Democrat strongholds, for years. And by the way, with regard to inner cities, America's inner cities. For the last 60 years, my entire broadcasting career has been spent talking about America's inner cities. Byron Donalds, the Byron Donald's House representative member from Florida on the Newsmax hotline. BYRON donalds, America's INNER Cities and I like to use the analogy that people like Brandon Scott and J.B. pritzker are once again standing in the schoolhouse doors as, as a Republican attempts to break down the walls that keep people in America's inner cities, in poor schools, needy and filled with grievance. Isn't that exactly the same modus operandi that the Democrat Party has had for decades?
Byron Donalds
Yeah, that's absolutely correct. And that's why they run America's largest cities into the ground. They've been in control of these cities for 60 years. I think there's a list out there of every crime, ordinance, major city, the mayor, the city council are typically all Democrats. They're not electing Republicans. And it starts with the basic stuff. Number one is public safety. People aren't going to be able to open businesses. They're not going to be able to students aren't going to Be able to walk to school thinking just about school. If the cities aren't safe, that's number one. Number two, when the kid gets to school, they actually have to get an education that's worth something. It has to be challenging. It has to be.
Rob Carson
Yes sir.
Byron Donalds
It has to demand excellence from them. And if kids aren't getting that and they're behind when it comes to grade level mathematical skills, reading skills, all you're doing is actually opening them, opening them up to the desperation of having to do whatever it takes to put food on the table. And sometimes that leads to crime or it leads to desperation or it leads to public assistance. Either way it's not good. So those are the building blocks of good societies. Democrats don't believe in those principles which is why our major cities continue to fall behind.
Rob Carson
I gotta tell you, I moved to Washington D.C. about three and a half months ago. Byron Donalds and I live in Old Town Alexandria. And, and I cannot believe I went to Union Station and you can eat off the floor there. It is remarkable. Now I didn't live here the last four years. You have. How much has it changed since Donald Trump brought the National Guard in and did what he's doing in Washington D.C.
Byron Donalds
Like night and day. I know, Seriously, like night and day. There was about a two week period there where there was not a murder in Washington D.C. that hadn't happened in D.C. in 40 plus years. It's literally night and day. And actually what you're seeing is the Metro Police Department. Now they have the resources to focus on the more crime ridden areas. Mayor Bowser, D.C. mayor, she was an oversight committee. About two weeks ago she testified under oath that crime in D.C. was down 40%. 40.
Rob Carson
Wow.
Byron Donalds
These are real solutions. It's helping, except if you listen to Democrats. But again they're stupid. They have no solutions, no real solutions.
Rob Carson
Yeah. What about this shutdown? I have said from the very beginning and I have been proven right. 65% of Americans know it's the Democrats problem. When is this going to end? What is, when is this going to end? I have no doubt the Democrats are going to come out on the losing end. They're not going to get anything out of this. It's just a matter of when. What do you think?
Byron Donalds
I think this will probably end sometime over the next two weeks. Major issues coming up, which is payment for our service members, military pay is going to come up soon and I think you're going to see a couple Senate Democrats begin to fold. And that's just the way this thing is going to end. It's all been about Chuck Schumer trying to save his leadership from the radical left in his party. It's about the radical left wanting to spend now upwards of $1.8 trillion more on reckless things that the American people have long since rejected. The largest of which is health care for illegal aliens. The American people have rejected it. That's what Democrats want. And so they're trying to hold the government hostage and hold the American people hostage. But we're not going to budge and we're not going to yield.
Rob Carson
Nobody believes it, man. Nobody believes that. They don't hold any sway anymore. That's just the way it is. It's obvious. Okay, so you're going to be running for, for governor of Florida. As much as I would really hate to have you leave DC Tell me about your plan, sir.
Byron Donalds
Well, look, the job is simple. Number one, keep Florida as the number one state in the country. Ron DeSantis, our current governor, has done a tremendous job. It starts with public safety, starts with great education for our kids, and then it's going to be about building our economy in Florida to be even stronger. We want to be the financial hub of the world. We want to be a major tech hub in the United States. We want to continue to bring great companies, high paying jobs for the people of Florida while also making sure that we're making Florida a little bit more affordable, a little bit more attainable for the people who call it home. So it's a big job ahead of us, but we have a great, we're in a great position. The governor has left Florida in great shape. He's in his last, his last year of his term. And I'm really fortunate to be endorsed by President Trump to be the state's next governor. And we're going to take our state to a whole nother level.
Rob Carson
Well, I hate to see you leave D.C. i don't blame you for wanting to, but I wish you the best, man. And I want to tell you also, and I've spoken to your wife many times on this radio program and I you were my choice for Trump's vp. But I just want to tell you that I know that doesn't matter now, but I've just been a huge admirer of what you've done, your steady leadership and your brilliance. And I'm just thrilled and honored to have you had you on the show today. Byron Donalds.
Byron Donalds

I mean he is, he's, he is a freaking rock star. He is a rock star. So byron donalds.com let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show. So you've been watching this Katie Porter from California. She's running for governor. She is a white Stacey Abrams. She's a white Stacey Abrams. She is, I mean what a putrid individual. She did this interview with a CBS reporter and, and she got all sorts of nuts on there and wasn't going to answer any questions. You've seen the video. I'll play it for you. I mean you've already seen it. But I want to share it again.
Judge Jeanine
Well, to those voters. Okay, so, so you, I don't want to keep doing this. I'm going to call it. Thank you. You're not gonna do the interview with us? Nope, not like this I'm not. Not with seven follow ups to every single question you ask every other candidate has answered. I don't care. I want to have a pleasant positive conversation which you ask me about every.
Rob Carson
You to kiss my substantial butt issue on this list.
Judge Jeanine
And if every question you're going to make up a follow up question then we're never going to.
Rob Carson
Woman has so much arrogance and Huberts and also she's freaking out of her mind. She's nuts. She threw like a. A pot of boiling water on her husband. She's no longer married.
Judge Jeanine
Get there. And we're just going to circle around. I've never had to do this before.
Rob Carson
Oh, what an insufferable, awful, awful, awful, awful, awful woman. Here she is yelling at somebody for getting into her shot. And generally when it's a shot, when she's on camera, there's not a lot of room. There's not a lot of room to get in her shot.
Judge Jeanine
And other problems, and the state could lose. Get out of my shot. I wanted to tell you that that's actually incorrect. It's not that it's electric vehicles. It's that if we don't make a commitment. Paris climate report. Okay, it does. Okay. You also were in my shop before that. Stay out of my shop.
Rob Carson
Oh, she is so done. And have you seen her lately? I mean, there's nothing to like about this woman. Nothing. She's crazy. She's cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs. She's cray cray.
Judge Jeanine
So on election night, I was with. I went to pick up my daughter from water polo practice, and she's 12. And she got in the car and she was crying, and I said, did someone punch you? Like, water polo is a rough sport? I was like, did someone hit you? Did the coach yell at you? What happened? And she said, mom, Trump won. Trump's going to win. And what if I get raped and I need to have an abortion?
Rob Carson
Okay, the reason why your daughter thought that is because you've frigging terrified the BLEEP out of her her entire life, you nut bag. I'm sure you've already talked about your daughter. Oh, you're feeling a little depressed. Well, you know what? Maybe you should get on. Purity puberty blockers. That's the sort of crazy cat lady mentality that is killing the Democrat Party. Okay? Karen's running around the country, including one running for governor in Virginia. Okay? This is about a pathos. This is about people who are not mentally right, busybodies who have decided to step forward, telling us how to live our lives, among other things. And honestly, there's no room for Karen. There's no room for Karen in any sort of governance, whether it be Abigail Spamberger or whether it be Katie Porter. Okay? Go back to your cul de sac and be the, you know, the leader of your. Your HOA and be bossy. But honestly, you're not mentally stable enough to be in leadership. Let's take a break and come back. Last hour on the Rob Carson show is right ahead. Don't go anywhere.

Date: October 9, 2025
Episode Theme: A humorous but hard-hitting deep-dive into the newly announced Israel/Hamas peace deal, Middle East geopolitics, Antifa and inner-city crime, with special guest Rep. Byron Donalds (FL). The episode mixes critique of Democratic leadership and policy with optimistic takes on emerging global events.
This episode features Rep. Byron Donalds discussing the historic Israel/Hamas peace deal, its geopolitical implications, and the tactical approach the Trump administration is taking in both the Middle East and U.S. cities plagued by Antifa and violent crime. Rob Carson, known for his comedic take on politics, balances biting satire with earnest interviews, notably giving Rep. Donalds space to share insight. The show also critiques mainstream media narratives, Democratic city management, and rising leftist violence.

Memorable Quote:
“If Hamas gives up the hostages, that would give Israel and the United States permission to bomb them into oblivion, should they try anything.”

This episode offers Newsmax's signature hard-conservative, sometimes confrontational, take on U.S. and world affairs. Rob Carson and Byron Donalds argue the Israel/Hamas peace deal is a Trump-driven breakthrough with profound long-term implications. Parallel to international affairs, they frame Antifa and Democratic city leadership as existential domestic threats, touting new administration strategies to stamp out violence and urban decay.
