A (5:41)

Medicaid funding that are going to the

B (5:43)

state of Minnesota in order to ensure that the state of Minnesota takes its obligations seriously to be good stewards of the American people's.

A (5:52)

Tax money.

B (5:53)

Yeah, they were. They were taking millions of dollars every day in cash leaving Minnesota, the Minneapolis St. Paul Airport, to go to Somal, to go to Somalia. That's where they were going. The armpit of the world. And 89% of Somalians in Minnesota are on welfare of some kind. And almost exclusively Somalians were opening daycare centers that didn't serve any kids. But they took millions and millions and hundreds of millions and billions from us to just. And that's just the start. Now, what is this going to mean? What this means is that, first of all, the providers on the ground in Minnesota have actually already been paid.

A (6:28)

The state has paid those providers the money.

B (6:30)

What we're doing is we are stopping the federal payments that will go to

A (6:34)

the state government until the state government

B (6:37)

takes its obligations seriously. Yeah, every damn dime. I'd cut every damn dime. To be quite Honest, here is Dr. Oz talking about the state of Minnesota. Wait till you hear what was going on with all of the autism fraud. In a second. You're gonna. You might want to sit down.

A (6:54)

We did what any honest and patient focused agency would do. We have notified the state and that we will give them the money, but we're going to hold it and only release it after they propose and act on a comprehensive corrective action plan to solve the problem. If Minnesota fails to clean up the systems, the state will rack up a billion dollars of deferred payments this year. Governor Walsh has 60 days. 60 days, sir, to respond to our letter. And if providers and beneficiaries are worried about getting their money inserted.

B (7:21)

I want to let people go to jail. I want people in government to go to jail. I want Keith Ellison to be investigated and indicted. I want Tim Voltz to be indicted. They oversaw this. Dear God in heaven. I want people to go to bloody jail for this. And I'm talking about people in government. People in government never go to jail. They need to go to jail for this. And it's going to have to happen all over the country. Now, wait until you hear this. And I said to you that if you are a Somali mom or dad and you lied about your kid having autism to get autism money, you need to be deported. You better find somebody to take care of your kid here or you're going back to Somalia with them. But honestly, this is ridiculous. Listen to Dr. Oz.

A (8:03)

Let me share some of these horrible stories. The vice president started highlighting autism. Let's get into details of what's really going on in Minnesota. These are real cases from our group at cms. These are adjudicated numbers. There is a fraud scheme in Minnesota where criminals, soon to be criminals, pay moms $1,000 roughly in order to enroll their children as being autistic. Falsely dishonestly claiming their children are autistic. They then bill Medicaid. Already happened. Millions of dollars for services that were never rendered, never delivered by a qualified staff member.

B (8:35)

Oh, it gets much worse.

A (8:36)

These schemes disproportionately involve immigrant communities. They're insulated, they're able to organize efforts and sometimes they don't understand what's going on.

B (8:44)

Now you just said that they did an intentionally. Dr. Oz, don't contradict yourself.

A (8:48)

And it ultimately diverts resources away from k. Truly have autism. Because if every kid in the neighborhood has autism, then nobody has autism.

B (8:56)

Yes.

A (8:56)

In terms of how you can manage them. There was one behavioral. And by the way, these kids, they carry that diagnosis of autism the rest of their lives.

B (9:02)

Yeah.

A (9:03)

Their mom made a bad decision. The kid pays the price for the rest of their life. There's one Behavioral Health Organization, Mr. Vice President in Minnesota they received eleven and a half billion dollars in Medicaid payments. But the top biller. The top biller submitted 450 days where they claim they're working more than 24 hours a day.

B (9:19)

Yeah.

A (9:20)

I mean even in the White House

B (9:21)

it's like Fani Willis in the case against Donald Trump and her boyfriend billing for, you know, 20 hour days. Tough.

A (9:28)

It's hard to work more than 24 hours a day.

B (9:30)

Yeah.

A (9:30)

It didn't get picked up. Is shocking. Unless you can slow down time us at cms. There are other red flags in Minnesota including hundreds of beneficiaries receiving treatment linked to one location which was impossible physically to be true. We had eight beneficiaries in one of these substance use disorder centers. Eight who were already dead. The center was still building us.

B (9:49)

Wow.

A (9:50)

Not only did they let the person pass, they kept building for it. That's the level of.

B (9:53)

This is a colossal failure of government and its oversight. They're the ones who are as guilty as the recipients. The people who missed this. Hundreds of people came forward to Tim Vaults and and were whistleblowers that said something's got to be done about this. And they were shown the door. They were either threatened with losing their jobs or. Or they were shown the door and silenced. People need to go to jail. Here's cnn. Cnn, oblivious to everything. Even though millions and millions, hundreds of millions of dollars went out in suitcases to Somalia which is run largely by El Shabab and they're claiming that Al Shabaab didn't get any of the money.

C (10:38)

If you're going to withhold the funds, shouldn't you have a clear and detailed plan that states can meet in order to put those. To turn those funds back on? Because it's not just monopoly money. This is money that is going to actual human beings.

B (10:54)

Now, you figure out, you. You manage it, you expose why it was mismanaged, you show the people who mismanagement, and we'll turn the faucet back on. Otherwise is off.

C (11:02)

Yeah. And I think that's why Republicans are so outraged. There's reporting from the City Journal that money that was supposed to go to help the elderly and the disabled was actually funneled to the Al Shabaab terror group in Somalia. So I think we should all be furious.

B (11:17)

They would rather give Al Shabaab the benefit of the doubt than Donald Trump talking about inviting the women's hockey team to the White House

C (11:27)

about that, actually. So that's what we're going to find. So let's look into it. There were allocations. Let's lift up the couch cushions.

B (11:33)

That.

C (11:33)

That actually happened.

B (11:34)

Okay.

C (11:35)

So the reporting is totally wrong. I think. I think we should all again, prosecuting fraud. No one disagrees with.

B (11:42)

Right.

C (11:42)

Okay, but.

B (11:44)

But man, whatever happened to your journalistic curiosity? Well, nothing, because you're not a journalist. You're not a journalist. Abby Normal on cnn. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show. Come on, Pete, Stop moving. Got to get me there. What happened was this fraud framework is they brought the Somalis in because they had a guaranteed voting block for all eternity. And they all vot Democrat and they'll say they have nine people living in an apartment. And guess what?

A (12:14)

The State sends them nine ballots.

B (12:16)

Yeah. Yeah. Or they have 10 and there's no verification. This is like the Wild west and it's destroying Minnesota. It's destroying country. And we're at a crossroads right now. Yeah. This is why they don't want the. The voter identification. As David Hoke, he worked with Nick Shirley and exposed all this nonsense. By the way, there were 500 autism centers and only six applied reapplied after it was discovered that they might be that they need a license. Apparently you didn't need a license up there to get an autism center. So all of a sudden it went from zero, you know, a couple million dollars a year for autism centers to $400 million. And so they have decided to ask for a license and only six have reapplied. So it was all fraud, all down the toilet. And this is why your Democrat party does not want legal voter id. This is why they don't want the SAVE Act. This is why they're so, you know, bananas against making sure you are who you are to the privilege of citizenship. You are not guaranteed a right to vote. The only people who are guaranteed a right to vote are citizens of the United States. And you need to prove that.

A (13:25)

Why would anybody not want voter id? One reason. Because they want to cheat. There's only one reason.

B (13:31)

Duh.

A (13:32)

They make up all excuses.

B (13:34)

They say it's racist.

A (13:35)

They come up with things. You almost say what imagination they have. They want to cheat.

B (13:40)

They have 100%. There's no doubt about it. Here's Kamala Harris. I apologize to do this to you, but I'm going to play some Kamala Harris. You may lose an IQ point or two. You've got some despair. If you're a Democrat, you might want to change it, because otherwise your breathing could stop. Because you need some intelligence to at least maintain your breathing and digestion.

C (14:02)

What else have they done? The SAVE Act. You know what the SAVE act would do? Require that people show a birth certificate or a passport to register to vote.

B (14:10)

Yeah, that's. That's proof you of who you are. That's proof of your citizenship. And you can easily get a birth certificate. It's quite simple. You just go on your state website and request it.

C (14:19)

I don't have the exact numbers in front of me, but it's something like 40% of Americans don't have the.

B (14:27)

What? They don't have what?

C (14:28)

Documents.

B (14:29)

Then you get your ass out and

C (14:30)

you get them married women. If you change your name when you got married.

B (14:34)

Here we go. Here we go.

C (14:35)

It's going to be different than what's on your birth certificate. Yeah, right. And what that's going to do in terms of.

B (14:41)

It's easy to prove this. Show them your marriage certificate. Complicating your marriage certificate.

C (14:45)

The ability of women to register to vote.

B (14:48)

Oh, my God.

C (14:49)

And so this is happening in real time.

B (14:51)

Yeah. Oh, boy. What is it? This is happening in real time. What a nonsensical word expression to use. It's like at the end of the day, I hate that expression. This is going on in real time. Well, isn't everything going on in real time? Look, I'm talking. It's in real time. I'm breathing. I'm listening to a music. Oh, my God. I'm listening in real time. Most of her words are like, what's in her head? A lot of empty space, a lot of nothing. This is New Mexico, Democrat, by the way. I'm on KBQ in Albuquerque. Thank you very much. Theresa Ledger Fernandez. Listen to her bananas excuse about voter

C (15:37)

ID betrayal, I think is key because that's why we are also seeing that Trump and the Republicans don't want us to vote.

B (15:46)

Okay.

C (15:46)

They don't want women to vote.

B (15:48)

Oh, well, we guess don't want half of our voters to vote.

C (15:52)

They don't want working families to vote.

B (15:55)

Then there's another 2/3, no, 3/4 of our voters there, right there. We don't want you to vote.

C (16:02)

Their agenda and their policy are so bad.

B (16:06)

No, they're kicking butt, actually, that they

C (16:08)

know that without the SAVE act, which the only thing it's going to save is their electoral buts in November, they are going to lose.

B (16:15)

Wow. We were saving our electoral butts and you've got your head jammed up yours. It's got to be dark in there. I swear to God, it's got to be dark in there. Wicomico County Sheriff Michael Lewis, M.D. by the way, the governor, the Fresh prince of Maryland, DEI Newsom Wesmore. I sometimes make myself laugh. I'm so funny, I make myself laugh. You know, sometimes you can't tickle yourself. You ever try that? I can do it right over my kidneys. I'll just go, whoa, there, I did it right Now I can tickle myself. And sometimes I kind of make myself laugh. Can't smell your own body odor. Generally. I can make myself laugh. Anyway, there's a whole bunch of sheriffs in the state of Maryland who are telling Westmore to stick it when it comes to not enforcing illegal immigration, not booting out illegal aliens and all that. I said illegal aliens. I can say that. And then, of course, not working with ice, they're saying, you know what, Westmore? You can stick it. This is nothing more than politics over public safety. And we as elected sheriffs, are fed up with it. You don't see this many sheriffs in one location in the state at any given time. But we have to come together in unison to stop the ridiculousness that's going on up here in Annapolis, Maryland. And lawmakers need to wake up and realize Marylanders and the American people want public safety over politics. Imagine that. Imagine this is actually Democrats did at one time, too, before they realized that their policies were causing Democrats to flee the party, would leave the party, leave states that are run by Democrats, leave cities that are my Democrats. So they had to start replacing votes and replacing bodies with those who enter the country illegally and those who employ them disrespect the rule of law and they are showing disregard for those who

A (18:12)

are following the law.

B (18:14)

All Americans, not only in the states most heavily affected but in every place in this country, are rightly disturbed by the large numbers of illegal aliens entering our country.

A (18:26)

The jobs they hold might otherwise be

B (18:28)

held by citizens or legal immigrants. The public service they use imposed burdens on our taxpayers.

C (18:33)

I think we can enforce our borders. I think we should enforce our borders, honestly.

B (18:38)

The Democrat Party, as I've said, is intellectually and morally bankrupt, done, kaput, over. There's no digging out of this hole. They really can't save themselves at this point. They can't, they can't steal elections anymore. They're trying their level best, but they can't win on, on issues they. Everything that they sat for the other night during the State of the Union, the American people are against. They support Donald Trump's policies. There's no helping them at this point. The Democrat Party is fundamentally broken. There's no way it can be fixed. There are some people are beginning to kind of get it a little bit. For instance here, this is CBS the other night during the State of the Union address, realizing that what Donald Trump was saying is actually what people want to hear.

A (19:22)

We have Major here at the table. I want to bring the conversation back here to our group watching along. Major, you've seen a lot of these,

B (19:28)

I think more than any of us. Us.

A (19:29)

What stood out to you? Well, look, before the speech, many Republicans said one of the priorities for the president was to make sure Americans after this speech had a sense that the opposition party was off the rails, was crazy.

B (19:41)

Their terminology, not mine.

A (19:43)

Many of the contrast the president articulated tonight were to drive that message forward that not only do I disagree with the opposition party sitting before me in Congress, but I think disagree with them so strongly and they with me so much that they can't even applaud. Basic common sense thing. And that line that you mentioned that he added to the speech, whether it was ad libbed or not, the first obligation, American citizens versus illegal aliens was meant to create a visual moment of perpetual contrast.

B (20:14)

Yeah, the Democrats are scrod. They are scrod. CBS said that Donald Trump had an extraordinary speech.

A (20:21)

It was an extraordinary speech. The longest to a joint session in history. The longest State of the Union in history. In some ways vintage Trump, combative populist, historic for other reasons as well. The first part of the speech all about the economy, an issue we know a lot of Americans want to hear about. He touts it, but he does so against the wall of negative opinion.

B (20:43)

There you go. Absolutely. I told you, overwhelm them with joy and patriotism. 2024 was about turning away from nonsense into common sense. The sand upon their house of cards is eroding and it's collapsing upon itself. I told you, this is why I do this job, people. This is why I do this job. Sarah Bedford joins us from the Washington examiner next. Don't go anywhere. Let me share Brian's story from Alabama. He tells us about relief factor. Trying it for just three weeks. At least 90% of my pain was gone. My pain had started to limit me at work and at home and I'm amazed at the relief I've gotten. Those are Brian's own words and they speak volumes about what relief factor can do. I've seen that kind of transformation myself and hearing Brian's experience just reinforces why I'm so passionate about sharing this with you all. Don't wait. If you're dealing with daily pain, launch your three week quick start and see what relief factor can do for you. Call 800 for relief. That's 800 for relief. Or go to relieffactor.com that's relieffactor.com how will it feel to be out of pain?

C (21:58)

Poor little Democrats. Are you guys okay today that I came in to check on you? Every time Trump does something good, you guys spazz out. Would you guys shut up and let him work?

A (22:10)

If you agree with this statement, then stand up and show your support. First duty of the American government is

B (22:18)

to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens.

A (22:33)

These people are crazy.

B (22:35)

Wow. That is a brand new ad from the Republican Party created from the. There, there are many that will be able to be used for the rest of this year. From that State of the Union address, I, it was just a gold mine. It was a gold mine. Joining us to talk about this and other things, Sarah Bedford, investigative editor for the Washington Examiner. Hello, Sarah. How are you doing today?

C (22:56)

I'm great. Thanks for having me.

B (22:58)

That was, that was quite a speech the other night. There were a lot of things going on there that I, I didn't anticipate happening. And, and him saying, and I don't think the Democrats, I think they were caught sitting down on that one, weren't they?

C (23:10)

They were. You know, you would think in the year of our Lord 2026, they've had more than a decade of Donald Trump leading them into traps that make them look terrible, and yet they couldn't spot this one, even though it was sort of obvious from a mile away that you ought to agree with the basic principle that the U.S. government should prioritize U.S. citizens. And yet, you know, Trump created a really striking visual image of the fact that Democrats don't see a distinction between illegal immigrants and US Citizens. And it was such a just perfect encapsulation of the contrast that you have between the two parties. And for him to make a visual out of that contrast was really brilliant for whoever in the White House came up with that one.

B (23:59)

I saw that. Did you see that when he. When he was doing the looks and he was like, put his hand out. He's, like, rolling his eyes. I mean, it was. It was perfect for television. He was. He was like, well, can you believe this? Can you believe this is happening? And then he whips out that you should be ashamed and you're crazy. I mean, boom, boom, boom. And you know what the reaction from Chuck Schumer and Pramila Jayapal and others is? Literally. Literally, this is what they say, that you should be ashamed. They say to him, well, Trump should be ashamed. It's. Their reaction is, I know you are, but what am I?

C (24:37)

I mean, they sort of played right into his hands. He said, these people are crazy. And then several of them started screaming at him like, frankly, crazy people. I mean, that's not behavior that normal Americans expect to see when they tune into something as somber as the State of the Union. It's not behavior that we've really seen before. I mean, I'm old enough to remember when I think was Joe Wilson, the congressman who yelled one tiny thing during an Obama State of the Union, and it became an infamous moment, and he was denounced by both sides as shattering decorum. And now you have people just sitting in the stands heckling Trump as if he's like a comedian at a nightclub. And it just underscored everything. Trump, all the criticisms that he had of Democrats, they made sure to demonstrate he was right by some of their behavior in the chamber. And I can't imagine that Democratic congressional leadership was happy with that.

B (25:34)

Well, and then you've also got people like Debbie Wasserman Schultz, who, even though. And listen, this is how far separated from reality the Democrat Party is that you can't celebrate a 100-year-old veteran whose plane was shot 260 times, who was injured, took down four MiGs, fought in three wars, or a helicopter pilot who had his leg shattered and maintained consciousness long enough to fly his Troops, troops to safety after destroying the people who are trying to kill. And the next day they're saying it was an award ceremony or you had another. I don't know what this podcast was. These, these five women saying, you get an award and you get an award like Oprah giving away a car. I mean, how tone deaf. I mean, even, even if you. They don't believe in America, they don't love America, they don't love the military. But at the same time, in the face of all that, you don't shoot yourself in the foot by going after something sacred.

C (26:29)

Right? I mean, Trump is really, really good at forcing Democrats to defend the most unpopular parts of their. He, he reflexively puts Democrats on the opposite side of everything he does. And so to use this big platform to force Democrats to take the opposite side of something like celebrating a World War II Federate, it's pretty brilliant tactics. I mean, watching the State of the Union. Excuse me, excuse me.

B (27:01)

I said, or a hockey team. Go ahead.

C (27:03)

Or a hockey team. Yes. I was watching the speech with my 9 year old and he said, mom, everything he's saying is awesome. Why isn't half the room not clapping for that? It's kind of true. Everything he's saying was awesome. If he actually just stuck only to the agenda that he laid out in the State of the Union, he could probably win 10 elections in a row. And so to strategically choose to just highlight the most unobjectionable things in America that make America great and force Democrats to stand opposed to that really showed the contrast between the two.

B (27:38)

Sarah, you said your 9 year old was loving the speech. And outside, meantime, and I do mean this, your 9 year old is able to recognize the goodness in that speech. But outside, this is what Democrats were doing.

C (27:50)

Joyful, radical, peaceful resistance with the Portland Frog Brigade.

B (27:56)

I'm the co founder of the Portland frog Brigade. Hey, Mr. Tangerine Man. Writer of sexy books, Stacey Abrams. Trump was on the Jeffrey Epstein plan.

C (28:10)

It really should be called the State of the unethical.

B (28:15)

He is a fascist. Tragically, we're now in a country of, by and for a handful of dishonest. Honestly, your son is nine. They were playing to four year olds.

C (28:27)

I mean, it's so unserious, it's kind of shocking. And they've now had close to a year and a half since Trump won the election. Just sort of regroup and look at where they went wrong. And they sort of seem to have taken all the wrong lessons from their loss to Donald Trump. They're not presenting any sort of serious, coherent, adult agenda to people. And you know, they will probably still do well in the midterms because it's just sort of they're trying Trump in absentia. In a way. It's just a referendum on Trump's agenda. And life is still hard for a lot of people. The midterms tend to go to the party in the wilderness. So I, you know, I don't, I, I still think that Donald Trump will see his party suffer in the midterm. But in terms of ever regaining fuel

B (29:14)

power, the president before, I think your affordability argument, Sarah, we've talked about this before. Your affordability argument is disappearing into the dust and we've still got eight months to go. So I'm going to disagree with you. I think there are a lot of hurdles. I get that. But as far as affordability is concerned, I think that is being left in the dust, particularly as we progress through the year. I do on the other side of the break though, though want to talk to you about the apparently the FBI surveilled Susie Wiles and Cash Patel while they're civilians. I know you're covering that story. Can you stick around through the break?

C (29:51)

Sure. Thank you.

B (29:52)

Lovely, lovely. Sarah Bedford from the Washington Examiner. We'll continue this conversation on the other side. This is the Rob Carson show. Hey guys, it's Carson. For quints, you know, a well built wardrobe is about pieces that work together and hold up over time. That's what Quince does best. Premium materials, thoughtful design, everyday stables that feel easy to wear even as the weather shifts. Quince has everyday essentials. I love the quality that lasts, by the way, organic cotton sweaters, Polos for every occasion, lighter jackets to keep you warm in the changing season. The list goes on. Now Quince works directly with top factories and cuts out the middleman. So you're not paying for brand markup, just quality clothing. Everything is built to hold up to daily wear and still look good season after season. I have a great wool blazer that has the ladies turning their heads even if they're not looking at me. And then of course, a cashmere sweater, ridiculously soft, doesn't cost a fortune as well. Refresh your wardrobe with quince. Go to quince.com newsmax for free shipping on your order.

C (31:12)

Michigan is open for business. New factories making Batteries, cars, chips are opening in Marshall, Lake Orion, Holland Bay City, Calumet, Hemlock, Ann Arbor and Delta Township. A new fighter mission is coming to Selfridge Air National Guard base in Macomb County. Probably not on the bingo card, but I want to thank President Trump for his work on this.

B (31:40)

Whoa, whoa, whoa. That is Gretchen Whitmer, the governor of Michigan, crediting Donald Trump with bringing back manufacturing essentially to Michigan. And his policies are, by the way, and this is why I say the Democrats house of cards built on sand is beginning to crumble away. That's what I think anyway. When she's given credit to the Prezi. Did you, did you see her, by the way, Sarah? Did you. Sarah Bedford of the Washington. Her. Did you see her? The end of her speech?

C (32:08)

Oh, big gretch out.

B (32:10)

I know, I know, I know. Big gretch out. I'm like, oh, no, no, no. How uncool can you be? Listen, I'm, I'm a little older than her. I'm even not that uncool, Sarah. But I do, I do believe it. I know

C (32:31)

it's smart politics for her. I mean, she's charting a different path than the frog uniform wearing liberals who obviously have nothing to offer her voters. Michigan is a state Trump won. I mean, if any Democrat is going to win the White House two years from now, they're going to need Trump voters. And so any liberal out there right now alienating those type of people and is probably not going to end up the President. But it's clear she has ambition. It's clear Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro has ambition because you don't see them out there bashing Trump every day because they know they'll need Trump voters if they ever want to get a promotion to the White house.

B (33:12)

At least 10 FBI staffers who worked on the Mar A Lago documents case were fired. Firings came after Reuters reported that the FBI had subpoenaed records of phone calls made by FBI Director Cash Patel and Suzie Whiles while they were both private citizens. Two people you really shouldn't have messed at considering. Messed with considering where they are now. What do you know about this?

C (33:34)

This is a pretty shocking story. I mean, we know that Special counsel Jack Smith was really aggressive in trying to go after Trump. That was his only mandate in coming back to the Justice Department. And Keshe Patel, you know, it is shocking that they were spying on him. He was trying to Trump designated representative to the National Archives when they were all private citizens and the National Archives was negotiating with the Trump team to get their records back. So even though it's a pretty aggressive move to surveil Tash Patel in that role, there's at least some sort of plausible nexus to what Smith was doing. But Susie Wilde is a totally different story. She was not part of the first Trump administration. She had zero role in packing up the Lago or where they were stored afterwards. She had zero role in any of the legal challenges that Trump made to the results of the 2020 election. She was just a political advisor to Trump that came on board after all of that stuff had already happened. And at the time that she was being spied on, she was Trump's campaign manager. And it's really hard to think, even in your wildest imagination, what a justification would be for the FBI to. To spy on someone whose only connection to Trump was being a political adviser. And it really raises the question of just how far did the Biden FBI go to spy on Trump and to try to prevent him from becoming president?

It's about to show me the man, I'll show you the crime. You know, the old Soviet adage, that's what they were doing. They were on a fishing expedition. They were looking for anything, looking for anything at all. That's what they do. You find a little something, then you go after somebody, you threaten them, you destroy them. That's what they tried. And it's kind of remarkable that so many people who were surveilled, nothing showed up. So it showed that a lot of people had very clean records. They didn't have any issues whatsoever. And Donald Trump was, you know, associating himself with people who are not participating in criminal activity. And so I think that's what this is all about, I guess. Ten FBI employees who worked for Jack Smith's investigation have been let go. Sounds like more to come. Follow John Solomon. And it sounds like this grand conspiracy is coming to a head starting in the state of Florida. And I'm open that some of the. Some of the people who attempted to take Donald Trump down, this is just one of the many examples are held to account, and people end up going to jail. But, you know, I'm not holding my breath, Sarah.

C (35:59)

Well, it's remarkably. What we're learning now about the Jack Smith stuff is remarkably similar to the playbook we saw in 2016, which was that the FBI basically colluded with Democrats to come up with some sort of basis to spy on Trump and his campaign. And you mentioned, you know, all the people Trump surrounded himself with having clean records. That wasn't the case. In 2016, he was a complete political unknown. He had some people around him that the FBI did manage to take down, like Paul Manafort, Rick Gates, his first campaign manager and deputy campaign manager. But in terms of show me the man and I'll show you the crime, that's exactly what the FBI did to Trump the first time around. And so it's really hard to see any world where the FBI could have credibly had basis to do that twice. And it's simply a coincidence that two times you have the intelligence apparatus of the United States marshaled against the Republican frontrunner. And it's almost so wild that people are desensitized to how big a deal that is. But the more you learn about what the Biden FBI was doing, the more shocking it is. And you mentioned the grand conspiracy case that's supposedly being shown to a grand jury in South Florida. People talk about Trump weaponizing the Justice Department against his political enemies. One, that's already been done, and it was the Democrats across that Rubicon. But two, if you're against the weaponization of the Justice Department, I think you could make a real argument that Trump has no choice choice but to go after the people who did that first.

It's holding people accountable. This is why they said retribution, retribution, retribution. Never retribution. It was all about accountability. And that's one of the reasons why we voted for Donald Trump for all of this bull crap. And I'm, and I'm hoping some fruit comes from this. James Comey, John Brennan, James Clapper, Susan Rice, all doing the, the, the, the Russia collusion hoax. By the way, it sounds like it's coming down. I hope. Sarah, we gotta run. I greatly appreciate having you on. I love your work. I love talking to you on the air. By the way, Washington Examiner, Sarah C. Bedford on Twitter. Where else can people find your glorious work?

C (38:11)

All@washingtonexaminer.com thanks for having me.

B (38:14)

Great to have you on. Have a glorious weekend. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show. It is a Rob Carson Show. The Democrat Party is broken. They have to lie to get elected. Like Abigail scamberger in Virginia. Virginia high tax Democrat state loses another 200,000 to other states in just five years. Massachusetts has lost 200,000 residents to other states in five years. Steady exodus that analysts say reflects rising taxes, soaring housing costs and a cooling job market. New report estimates 182,000 people left the Bay State between 2020 and 2025 because Democrats make things suck. That's just the way Massachusetts opposes a 5% flat tax. Income above 1 million subject to a 9% rate. The state also levy sales tax. In Boston, long considered one of the nation's most desirable places to live, property taxes have become a focal point. It is, this is this it. This is New York, this is Chicago, this is Seattle. This is, you know, now Virginia and I moved here six months ago. If, if, if a Republican governor wins in Maryland and they're able to do something, I might consider moving back to Maryland because if Abigail Scamberger continues this note nonsense, I don't have any, I don't own any property here and I will gladly leave. And I hate to do that anyway, I just got department man, you know, it's a little easier now that I'm not married and everything, you know, whatever. Price of gold. What's the price of gold at? Price of gold is at 5180 today. 5180. So almost 50, $200. Did you realize that if you had $20,000 and you bought gold in 2006, those, those ounces of gold, those 33 ounces of gold will be worth about 165, $65,000? Yeah, I know, I know. It's crazy. That's gigantic. From 20,000 to 165,000 in 20 years. That's just remarkable. And that's what you need to consider when you're buying gold. For my friends at Birchgold. For thousands of years, gold has been a store of wealth. It's. Gold is amazing. Gold always makes you go, oh my God. You know, remember the Goonies when they found the ship? Oh my God. Yeah. Burt's Gold can help you convert an existing IRA or 401k member Gold. Member Austin Powers. Remember that? Yeah, when he looked down. Oh, gold. Anyway, just text my name, Rob to 989-898 to receive your free info kit on gold. No obligation, only information. A plus rating for the vbb. Tens of thousands of satisfied customers, again, including me. I've got some money in them, thank you very much. I got, got a, you know, nice little. It's not a nest egg. If you're going to do it, be like a robin's egg. It's not like a goose egg. It's not like an ostrich egg, but it's a little egg and I'm hoping it'll grow. This is why you, you sit on it. You see, when you get gold, it's like you sit on it and you hatch it in a few years. And I'm not going to hatch it for a few years. So there you go. And I've got Birch to tend the nest. How's that for an analogy? Yeah, that's pretty good analogy. A plus rating from the bbb. Tens of thousands of happy customers. Let Birch Gold help you divers what they call peace of mind. Text my name, Rob to 989-898 for Burch Gold. On the other side of the top of the hour, Mark Wayne Mullen shreds Bernie Sanders. Not hard to do. Also, Tulsi Gabbard is exposed a major seditious conspiracy involving James Comey, John Brennan, James Clapper, Susan Rice, Barack Obama about Russia collusion. Some more reaction to the speech Donald Trump. Trump gave the other night. And and because he can't be here tomorrow, Christian Toto from Hollywood. And Toto is going to join us a little bit later on. There's a lot of stuff going on. Gen Z men are saying no to superheroes. We'll tell you what that's all about. It's not a bad thing. It's not a bad thing. All in the final hour of the Rob Carson Show. Don't go anywhere.
