Now you are about to hear the most interesting, informative, thought provoking and funny show in America on air and on the World Wide web. This is the Rob Carson Show. This is the Rob Carson show. Our number two of the of the show. Brianna Lyman's gonna join us shortly on the show. She's awesome. She's with the Federalist Gen Z, Luke Ball also. He's really, he's really amazing. We'll have him at the bottom of the hour talking about, you know, what happened yesterday. This is Mark Wayne Mullen with regard to what happened yesterday and how the Democrats helped engineer it.
- [01:46]
Scott Jennings
Chuck Schumer in a private meeting with other Democrat senators said that if you'll just wait until after the election, I'll release the handcuffs. I added the handcuff part, but basically I'm paraphrasing what he said. The reason why is because they're afraid their base wouldn't show up today in Virginia, New Jersey and in New York. So it's been about politics. It's never been about policy. It's been about holding the American people as leverage points regardless of the damage they cause to the livelihood of these individuals. But elections are more important than the Dems because why they know their polls is at the very bottom than it's ever been for the Democrat Party.
- [02:24]
Rob Carson
Yeah, that's tr. Just a week ago, the Democrat Party was polling lower than it has ever. And it still will, by the way. It still will. Because what they're doing is they're leaning further left than Kamala Harris. And Kamala Harris got keel hauled by Donald Trump. That, that policy, those, the, the wokeness, the dei, and all of that nonsense was destroyed in November. These were small regional elections yesterday. And certainly in the state of Virginia, the shutdown of the. And the downsizing of the federal government played a major part in the defeat of the Republican candidates. And by the way, also, the Republican candidate for governor again had the, you know, the. About as exciting as an armadillo crossing the road, honestly. And I didn't say a lot about Winsome's ears. I didn't. I don't think we even had her on the air. I'm not sure why she wouldn't do appearances or what the deal was, but. But not an exciting candidate whatsoever. As I mentioned, in New York City, you had a crap sandwich. You had a. The Hul, a political dynasty long dead, a man who had so many troubles with regard to the COVID shutdowns and the death of nursing home patients and then a lot of sexual harassment and whatnot. And he got beaten in the primary, and he came back to try to win against the same guy who beat him in the primary. And then, of course, Curtis Lewis, who, the last time he ran, he lost by 40 points. So was it hopeful? Did we think something was going to happen? Yes, we hoped it would. We certainly hoped it in New Jersey. But there's a point where you kind of got to go. They gotta learn on their own. And particularly in New York, you're probably just gonna have to find another place to live. And I was talking to some people who work for Newsmax. I don't understand. It's gonna be real hard to keep a business in New York City because fewer and fewer people are going to want to go to New York City. I have no desire whatsoever to go back to Washington, to New York City, not one little bit. And as it becomes increasingly unsafe and unfriendly for business, more and more people will not want to do it. And it's a damn shame. It really, really is a really fun place, I got to tell you. I've been to New York four or five times since I went for the first time five years ago and broadcast my show across the street and about four floors up from where Rush Limbaugh started. And I thought it was an amazing place. But unfortunately, Democrat policies have made it too expensive to live Here and to live there, I should say. And now Zoran Mandami is going to supposedly make everything affordable for people can't afford to live there. And it's going to, it's going to drive the, the city into the crapper. I saw this the other day. This is pretty funny. This is. I thought this was a parody. I thought this was not real. This is a free grocery store in Baltimore. Now, Baltimore just came out and ranked one of the worst cities in America for safety. A Democrat is in charge of that city as well. And it's a shell of the city that it used to be. When I used to live here in Maryland, I'd take my son up and we'd go see Orioles games and we'd go to the Inner harbor. And it was really cool. And I really don't feel any desire compari function to go into downtown Baltimore. There are plenty of surrounding areas that are really amazing. But I want you to listen. This is what happens when you, when you open a government grocery store with free groceries. Wait till you hear the qualifications. And at the end of this, I want you to tell me what hours they're open, what you can get, and when fresh produce is allowed. This is real.

Scott Jennings
Introducing Baltimore's first free grocery store, where every Wednesday from 11 to 2 and Friday from 2 to 5, customers can fill one library supply bag with groceries at the Southeast Anchor Library. With fresh produce provided the fourth Friday of every month. It's just one more service offered by the Pratt Library. So if you're in the need of food for free, head to the Pratt Free Market and check it out.
- [06:17]
Rob Carson
There you go. So there. Go ahead. When is it open and when can you buy? When you can, when you can get a bag, one bag of groceries for free. Go ahead. Do you know? Let's, let's listen to it again here.
- [06:29]
Scott Jennings
Introducing Baltimore's first free grocery store where every Wednesday from 11 to 2 and Friday from 2 to 5 customers.
- [06:36]
Rob Carson
So Wednesday from 11 to 2 is when you can go get a bag of free groceries and then Friday from 2 to 5, you can go to get a bag of free groceries. But you only got fresh produce available on one Friday a month, and that's the fourth Friday of the month.
- [06:52]
Scott Jennings
One library supply bag with groceries at the Southeast Anchor.
- [06:55]
Rob Carson
One library supply bag is what you're going to get there. This is, this is free government groceries.
- [07:01]
Scott Jennings
With fresh produce provided the fourth Friday of every month. It's just one more service offered by the Pratt Library. So if you're in the need of food for free. Head to the Pratt Free Market and check it out.
- [07:12]
Rob Carson
So, okay, you can go get a free bag of groceries, a library bag. I don't know how big that is. Probably not very big. 11 to 2 on Wednesdays or Friday from 2 to 5. And then the fourth Friday of every month, the fourth Friday of every month, you can get produce. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, this is fantastic. That's. I guess that's real. I literally, I wrote Sean Casey at wcbm, our anchor station, and Kim Klasek, who does the show right preceding me. And I said, is this a joke? Is this a joke? This is what you get. You know, it was very, very fortuitous and very. I don't know, it was serendipitous that before I left Kansas City to move to Washington, D.C. to experience history and share with you, because great things are coming, guys. Great things are coming. Got a great president, he's getting a lot of things done and he's having everything thrown at him. Everything's been thrown at him for the last 10 years now. All right? But I accidentally went by the government run grocery store in Kansas City and I was wondering why there was nobody in this grocery store parking lot in the middle of the day. And I thought maybe the reason was they were going out of business. Seriously. Because sometimes when you do going out of business, they blow out all the stuff half price. And so I get out just to see this grocery store and I walked in and immediately I see the produce bins and they're empty. There's like one, you know, bok choy over here and then there's a tomato over here and a watermelon. And then I looked over at the prepared food section, like the deli. Nothing there wasn't open. They weren't chickens in the rotisserie, There weren't cakes in the bakery, nothing. There were just rows of shelves of different food. And then some people sitting at the register who looked at me like, who the hell are you? That's what Cuba did. That's what they did. They lost millions of dollars, millions of dollars spent on that grocery store. We all know that with a regular grocery store, the profit margin is small. But you see glorious. You know, I go to this store, it's called Wegmans, near my house, and I don't buy stuff whole price there. I'm very careful because I still shop like a poor person. But I mean, it's. Look at all the sushi, look at all the prepared stuff. And I mean, it's like you remember there was a movie with Robin Williams, Moscow on the Hudson from like 1988. And he's this guy who escaped from the Soviet Union standing in the row with the coffee and he's looking like the coffee, the coffee and all. He's grabbing at the shells and he just, and he falls down and passes out because he can't believe it. He can't believe how plentiful it was. But, but that's what Zoran Mannami is going to bring to New York City. And you know what? As far as I'm concerned, screw it. You made your bed, New York City lie in it. We find out this morning his mayor's commission, a bunch of Karens, a bunch of socialist Karens are going to do this and it's going to fail. This is like giving your keys to your, you know, your 16 year old son and you know, hoping for the best and then he wrecks the truck and then you got, that's what's going to happen in New York City. And I know it's going to happen. As far as, you know, I'm very disappointed with the state of Virginia, but I don't think, think a lot of things are going to happen like they had happened. I don't think there's going to be this forward push into DEI and CRT again. I think that ship has sailed. But of course they can do a lot of damage to the economy here in Virginia. They can raise taxes, they can increase regulation and all that and make Virginia a much less, you know, great place to live. As far as New Jersey, you know what, New Jersey, you made your bed and you're going to lie in it. Your, your, your prices for all of your utilities are going to go through this ceiling and are going to stay high and your property taxes are going to go high and New Jersey will continue to bleed out its population. The same goes with Maryland. Maryland lost 2 million people the last 10 years. Maryland has, and the tax base is leaving. Younger, productive people are not coming to Maryland because they know that their earnings are going to be pilfered and you know, they're going to celebrate and they're going to dance around and they're going to act like they've really won big with Zo Rundame. But the great thing is that they have shown that the Democrat Party is on a wayward, leftward movement and it's going to kill the Democrat Party. Now does that mean we shouldn't be threatened by it? Of course not. But, but, but it does show us that now we know what we're up against. Now we know who runs the Democrat Party. Now we can go after them and we can defeat them. Is it going to be a challenge? Yes. But I'm going to tell you something. Think about all the times in the last couple of years where something new happened with regard to Donald Trump, like right after got inaugurated the first time, and they immediately impeached him. And we had to get up and pick ourselves up and dust ourselves off and move on. Then the summer of 2020, then January 6, then the four political indictments where we had to watch Donald Trump go through this hell with Letitia James in the courtroom sneering. And we had to deal with the indignity of all of that, of all of that. We did. And we picked ourselves up and we dusted ourselves off and we said, we are going to win. The same goes with today. Last week, the Democrat Party was polling lower than it has in recorded history. That Democrat Party is still in the crapper, and its leftward movement is not going to help the situation. I've got more on this coming up. If you want to call 800-922-6680. This is the Rob Carson Show.
- [13:02]
Scott Jennings
Poor little Democrats.
- [13:03]
Rob Carson
Are you guys okay today? I came in to check on you. Every time Trump does something good, you guys spazz out, don't you guys? Shut up and let him work.
- [13:13]
Brianna Lyman
I fear the Democratic Party is at risk of becoming a ghost brand, too, like Sears. It used to be mighty and ascendant and popular. Sears once accounted for 1% of the entire American economy and 41% of the appliance market and built the country's tallest tower. Democrats once controlled Congress and the Supreme Court, or at least competitive. But now, even at a time when President Trump is turning 250 years of democracy into jean shorts, the Democrats have their lowest rating in 35 years. 63% unfavorable. What happened? I don't know what happened to Sears. It used to be synonymous with the American dream because it kept faith with what the customer wanted. Did we love Sears? No, but that was besides the point. You just went. It was like an Avatar movie that sold tools.
- [14:13]
Rob Carson
Do you think that with a 63% negative approval right now, the Democrat Party, that it's going to improve? Leaning into anti Semitism and communism. Go ahead. Yeah. Yeah. And so, you know, obviously we, we would have loved to have seen the, the Trump effect, the MAGA effect take hold in these cities. But here's the deal. This is a, this is A process, not an event. The changing of the country. The, the moving away from the nonsense of the last 10 years. Listen, the, the, the, the gigantic victory of Donald Trump one year ago today was gigantic. But did you going to go away? I mean, my God, they've been, they've been caterwauling, they've been screeching, they've been marching, they've been demanding. For the last nine months, it's been ridiculous. When Elon Musk uncovered all of the massive fraud in the federal government, they called him a Nazi and they marched on his dealerships, they made his cars worthless. People were vandalizing his vehicles. Even if, you know, if you were a liberal driving one, they were throwing eggs and vandalizing Tesl. And then of course, when that was over, that was over. Then they moved on to no Kings and they had a big no Kings protest. They spent 60, 70 million dollars on nationwide protests. Bought and paid for. Bought and paid for. It's not organic whatsoever. And then yesterday, number of reasons, the number one reason why there was a clean sweep in Virginia by Democrats was government shutdown. A lot of government employees losing their jobs. Loudoun in Fairfax Counties. There you go. And a bad gubernatorial candidate, just not a good gubernatorial candidate. Donald Trump is now leaning into the filibuster. And I got to tell you, so am I. Because the Democrat party fights dirty. They fight filthy, rotten dirty. Look what they did to Donald Trump with political indictments and then trying to murder him. And so as far as I'm concerned, do it, do it. No more Marcus of Queensberry rules because the Democrat Party will not do anything right now for the next three years. They will do nothing. They will pass nothing in spite of Donald Trump. That's it. So you know what? Get rid of the filibuster.
- [16:34]
Unknown Caller/Guest
We can't be extorted to give $1.5 trillion to people that came into the country illegally, many from prisons, many drug dealers. A lot of people came in from mental institutions. They want to give a lot of money to the people that came in illegally. We have to get them out. We can't. No country can sustain that. That's like an attack on our country and no country. These are not going to be productive people. These are going to be anti productive people. And we can be all have big hearts. I have a bigger heart than anybody, but we can't let that happen. It's time for Republicans to do what they have to do.
- [17:08]
Rob Carson
And that's how Democrats thought they were going to win forever. And we stopped it by Electing Donald Trump and closing the border.
- [17:13]
Unknown Caller/Guest
Terminate the filibuster. It's the only way you can do it. Listen, and if you don't terminate the filibuster, you'll be in bad shape. We won't pass any legislation. There'll be no legislation passed for three and a quarter. We have three and a quarter years. So that's a long time. But when they can't do an extension and John, I think they've done an extension every single time they've ever.
- [17:33]
Rob Carson
The easiest thing in the world would have been to pass the clean CR and the Democrats wouldn't do it forever. They're being, they are a hostile witness. They are, they, they, they are. They're nothing to do. But, but see blocking Donald Trump's agenda and it's going to happen for the next three years. So you might as well nuke the damn filibuster.
- [17:51]
Unknown Caller/Guest
This is the first time they haven't done an extension. Extensions are supposed to be easy because they won't do an extension. They won't do any bill, even a simple bill. And we should do our own bills. We should get out. We should do our own bills. We should open up. We should start tonight with the country is open. Congratulations. Then we should pass. Open the government voter id.
- [18:10]
Rob Carson
Voter id.
- [18:11]
Unknown Caller/Guest
We should pass no mail in voting. We should pass all the things that we want to pass.
- [18:15]
Rob Carson
Make that way they can't cheat in.
- [18:16]
Unknown Caller/Guest
The midterms Election secure and safe because California is a disaster. Many of the states are disasters. But can you imagine when they vote almost unanimously against voter id. All we want is voter.
- [18:28]
Rob Carson
Because the Democrats can't win free and fair elections. They can. Here's a little bit more from Donald Trump on nuking the filibuster.
- [18:35]
Unknown Caller/Guest
So I'm just going to. We're going to talk about that a little bit and we're going to see if we can sway because I know we have a lot of. Not a lot, I'd say half feel this way, maybe a little bit less than half and it's time to have a really good talk. If I thought that they weren't going.
- [18:51]
Rob Carson
If they get into office they'll do the same damned thing.
- [18:54]
Unknown Caller/Guest
Going to pass the filibuster. I wouldn't even bring it up. They're going to pass it within the first hour if they take power.
- [19:00]
Rob Carson
Yes.
- [19:00]
Unknown Caller/Guest
And it's more likely that they take power if we don't do because we're not going to be passing any legislation. They're not going to approve anything. We're going to go three and a quarter years. There won't be one bill that we're going to pass because the easiest thing to pass is exactly right now what they won't pass. And they'll do that and they'll wreak havoc.
- [19:17]
Rob Carson
But yeah, we're dealing with a hostile Democrat party, so it's time to react hostilely. There you go. Yeah, I'm down with it. Completely down with it.

- [22:02]
Luke Ball
Problem too large for government to solve.
- [22:05]
Rob Carson
And no concern too small for it to care about. And how's that going? How's that going? I mean, I think for the last 50 years, everything is still broken. Social Security is still bankrupt. Health care, we were told that Barack Obama was going to fix it with Obamacare. It's a, it's a giant, it's a giant turd. We cannot polish. Health care has gone for a family of four from $12,000 a year to about $40,000 a year. I just got healthcare for myself. I was able to find a Christian based healthcare plan, but it was gonna cost $900 a month. That's about 12 grand a year, 11 grand a year for me with a $7,000 deductible. So basically it's like having liability on your car. That's what it's become. But, but can you believe he actually said that? And the reason why he can say things like that is because you got a lot of young and stupid people who've been taught nothing in, in college. They don't know that socialism left 100 million people in body pits last century. So they're going to give it again. They're going to do it again. Joining us on Luke Ball. He is a political strategist, Newsmax contributor, among other things. How you doing today, sir?
- [23:15]
Luke Ball
Speaking of young and stupid people, I'm glad to be on your show today.
- [23:19]
Rob Carson
Look, you certainly are young, but you're not stupid. You know, a week ago we were talking about, and Bill Maher was talking about the death of the Democrat Party. A week ago that we were talking about Eric Kirk speaking at, you know, Ole Miss and, and tens of thousands of kids coming out. A rebirth, a spiritual rebirth and a patriotic rebir of our country spreading around the world. The country's soon to come to Venezuela. It's already happened in Poland, it's happened in Italy and all of that. And then yesterday there is a socialist who won a race he was supposed to win New Jersey, I'm not sure about New Jersey. I just think you've got a lot of frogs in boiling water over there. They don't realize how bad it sucks. They've lived there forever and they're perfectly fine with the status quo. And Virginia, it was all about the government shut down and Donald Trump downsizing the government. So there you go. And yet today, everybody is, you know, ready to jump off a ledge like everything is all over. I look at as a blessing because the Democrat Party has lurched further leftward than they were in November last year when they got their asses kicked. So what's your thought? Yeah, man.
- [24:26]
Luke Ball
The Democrats are saying this is a referendum on the president. Maybe you can make that argument if it was 50, 50 congressional race and the Democrat won overwhelmingly. But we know New Jersey is blue. Virginia is purple. It's a deep blue purple. And the fact is that we just didn't have as great a candidate quality and E states. And the way that President Trump won in this past election was by flipping counties and going and holding rallies and moving the needle further and further with his populist agenda. And frankly, both of the candidates at the top of the ballot in these two states ran away from him. If anything, it was a referendum on the Democrat Party from looking in New York because that's where all of the energy is. I don't think people so much realize the consequence of not only having a socialist candidate like Mandani, but having generally historically positioned individuals within the Democrat Party who have called themselves moderates for the last two decades, standing alongside and embracing him, essentially de facto leader of the Democrat Party right now. Because who is heading things up over there? Him? It's Jasmine Crockett. It's the wackadoodles that drag their party further and further to the left. And if, if they want to change something, speak now or forever hold your peace, because you have full blown endorsed it with your side or you've just outright endorsed him with your support. If you were in that party and you were standing alongside the regime changes happening up in New York City, you.
- [25:51]
Rob Carson
Know, I was reminded, I always say, that the Democrat Party, they're dying like movie vampires, dragging and kicking and screaming, trying to drag us into hell with them. In the First Blade movie, there's this council of vampires and there are all these old vampires. This young evil vampire comes in and ends up killing all the old vampires. And that's kind of what Mandami is doing. Yeah, it was.
- [26:15]
Luke Ball
It's such a vacuum, man. I think it was Their way of phoning it in November 5, 2025. If you'd have told me last year that we would still be kicking the tires in the Democrat Party as to who was going to be the head of this thing, Yes, I would have kind of chuckled at you. I'd been like, no, there's a ton of young, energetic people who are willing to jump in and take the mantle and try to redefine the, the party. Nothing. They have absolutely nothing. It's kind of funny, Rob. One of the reasons that some of the left wing pundits said that Antifa didn't exist is that they had no policy, platform or a plan for a national takeover. And by that standard, the Democrat Party doesn't exist either because I haven't been able to pull together any sort of agenda or any sort of plan. So it just kind of seemed like the first thing that moved, that garnered a general amount of support in one of the most blue cities in the nation. They just automatically threw their support behind. But just like Liberty, if you give some of it up, you're never going to get it back. Just like that. That type of change in their party. They have endorsed it. They're never going to get that old party back.
- [27:18]
Rob Carson
Yeah, and he went off the deep end and he exposed it all last night. There was no reaching across the aisle. There was no quoting of Jefferson or Washington. He was quoting dangerous communists and jihadis. That's what he did. I mean, and even Van Jones, I got Van Jones, here's Van Jude saying that Mondani in his speech last night missed the mark. I think he missed an opportunity. I think the Mamdani that we saw in the campaign trail, who was a lot more calm, who was a lot warmer, who was a lot more embracing, was not present in that speech. And I think that Mondami is the one you need to hear from tonight. I think that Mondami is going to motivate Republicans across the country to recognize the threat that we, we face. And the fact that this guy was able to be elected should send chills down the spines of Americans and maybe, and like I said, also we've all been saying with regard to the midterms, this could really, Mondami's election could really kill the Democrat Party as it has been known and make it into a Marxist socialist Communist party. Yeah.
- [28:27]
Luke Ball
What was at least a little encouraging whenever Bernie Sanders was out there running is that you had people like Nancy Pelosi behind, behind the scenes pulling the strings in the opposite direction of, you know, like Joe Biden and some of these other traditional Democrats, even though, like, you can make an argument there are no traditional Democrats anymore. I remember Blue Dog Democrats growing up. Those don't exist anymore. It's like a unicorn and a dodo bird in the same spot. But now, as you start to move forward, those people aren't pulling the strings anymore. There is a total and complete power vacuum. And that's why I think it's so dangerous. Dangerous. Part of me is content to look at deep blue cities and see them get what they want, but I just don't. I also don't think that their pyramid scheme of socialism runs out in time for people to really see the true effects of things before the midterm elections happen. And I'm just fearful that they're going to enjoy the free gifts for a few months, and then when it comes time to, like, actually pay for it, they slipped a little too far to the left.

Well, there's a lot of things that Donald Trump is doing right now to assure the elections are free and fair. One of the things that he is talking about, and very seriously, and I never would have really considered it, but getting rid of the. Nuking, the filibuster. Because right now we have a hostile Democrat Party that has no intention of doing anything to help Donald Trump. If they would not pass a clean CR. To get, you know, to. To ensure that there was enough suffering before the midterms, do you think anything's going to get done in the next three and a quarter years, let alone in the next year, Sir?

Luke Ball
It's very interesting to see the state of play right now with it being a complete stalemate, and I don't have a ton of hope that we're going to be able to actually pull forward and seize the moment. And even on the Republican side of things, I mean, Republicans have, like, a spiritual gift of screwing up a golden opportunity.
- [30:15]
Rob Carson
I know of.
- [30:16]
Luke Ball
Of not actually executing or capitalizing on the things that they're supposed to, which is why when you see Donald Trump grab the leverage of power and yank them so hard, everyone starts screaming that, oh, he's an autocrat and that he's a tyrant. In reality, he's just operating within the boundaries of what the founders laid out for him. Just no one has actually had the guts to go out there and pull it as hard as he has.
- [30:37]
Rob Carson
So we got to take a break, Luke. We got to take a break. And can you hold through the. Through the. Through the break? All right, let's continue with Luke Ball on the Other side of the break. This, my friends, is the Rob Carson Show. A lot of people, he's a Democrat, Democratic Socialist. He's an FDR Democrat. Some reporters give me a hard time. You said, like he's accomplished what FDR said.
- [31:00]
Brianna Lyman
It's no, he's at the beginning of his career.
- [31:02]
Rob Carson
He's got Rooseveltian ambition. Is that all right with you, sir?
- [31:06]
Luke Ball
That's the highest compliment.
- [31:07]
Rob Carson
Yeah, that is Jamie Raschol. Raskin, Raskin always mess that up. Jamie Raskin from Maryland comparing Zoran Mandami to Roosevelt. You know, this is the same sort of fawning that happened when Castro took power in Cuba. And eventually it will, it will turn south. He's the Democrat Party is willing to throw in with whoever will win. For instance, there was an AG candidate in the state of Virginia who wanted to fantasize about murdering his opponent and his family. This man would not pass a background check for law enforcement. And yet the Democrat Party said it's perfectly fine as long as he can win. That's where your Democrat Party is right now. Jamie Raskin is the old guard. He's one of the old vampires. He's trying to be on the good graces of this, this guy yesterday, Chuck Schumer would not say if he voted for Zoran Mandami. We didn't get an official endorsement from Barack Obama, although he approves of them. But, but the Democrat Party, I said after the, the, the loss and the fact that they did not try to right the ship after Kamala Harris's drubbing that, that they were, they were going to go down in flames. Now they've lurched completely left of sea center, which actually might be a little more dangerous to some degree. Luke Ball, Newsmax contributor, political strategist on the Newsmax hotline. Your thoughts continue with what you were saying before the break, my friend.
- [32:31]
Luke Ball
Well, it kind of feels like the Democrats are just blindfolded and trying to play pin the tail on the donkey with respect to the direction they want their whole party to go. And you know, Rob, I've been really gracious whenever I debate Democrats. And I've said things like I'm sure it's not you or the majority of your party that believes and then fill in the blank. And then I see the election happen yesterday for the AG race in Virginia, which was the one that really did surprise me. I kind of anticipated that the polls were indicating pretty strongly as to the gubernatorial analogy and things like that. But when I saw that the Democrats were totally fine with the type of verbiage that this guy was using of putting bullets in heads and having it come out immediately in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk assassination.
- [33:15]
Rob Carson
Yes.
- [33:15]
Luke Ball
And yet they still came out and voted for him. It didn't make any difference to, to them. That's when I started to kind of become a little fearful and realized perhaps this has become so intertwined in the lingo and the language and basically been acceptable over there that they don't care whatsoever what these people are saying, even if it's violent and incendiary language. And honestly I'm a little fearful, Rob. We're getting to the point where they're going to be able to justify it much easier than they ever have been in the past.
- [33:43]
Rob Carson
Well, there are a lot of balls in the air. You've got the Democrat Party standing in the schoolhouse door in place places like California and Illinois because they recognize that if the inner cities fall, so do the states. That's why we are as vdh. Victor Davis Hanson calls it a new neo confederacy happening with the Democrat Party. And I've said that essentially the Democrat Party has been waging a de facto civil war in America against people who are foundational conservatives and patriots. They also have an army for home hire of antifa and others and it's tentacle organizations that are paying protesters to show up. And it's all with plausible deniability. So you know, I think unfortunately some bigger, more violent things are going to happen. I'm leaving it up to the federal authorities and Donald Trump, the doj, the dhs, the border Patrol and other assendry agencies to go after it. But, but I do believe the Democrats are going to put the pedal to the metal on extremists for the, for the near future. Yeah.
- [34:53]
Luke Ball
And it's really unfortunate that even in the aftermath of the assassination you had people struggling to condemn it. People will say they did or that they said violence is unacceptable, but there were very, very few on the left that came out and explicitly condemned violence and said that this doesn't have any place in our republic or things of that nature. They always had to caveat it and say that this guy was disgusting and he said abhorrent things. And so they were honestly kind of like checking the box and then taking five to six steps back, which just shows you where their heart is. I mean, had this happened and a Republican done this to a Democrat like we would have, I would have been bending over backwards to call this out. Like we win with ideas, we win with argument. But they just genuinely seem to struggle with that and that seeps down into the norm. And the last thing I'll say with respect to this is that as you start to see the trend push further towards socialism and to the progressive left, I mean, this is like rules for radicals type of stuff. This is pushing into territory where a lot of times people will justify violence in order to accomplish their political goals. And so my fear is that these events that we've seen and the rhetoric we've seen are not outliers, but rather we're turning towards something that's more widely accepted among that base.

Rob Carson
Well, we have the right guy in office. He's doing what we asked him to do. He's doing a lot of amazing things. The Democrat Party has done nothing more than throw a temper tantrum for the last month. A violent temper tantrum. Burning Tesla dealerships, doing no Kings protests. They're vile, violent and awful. I lost my family, family because of politics. I've lost all of my friends from politics. And if it comes to defending freedom and the country is founded, it was worth it to me to be quite as painful as it is. But I do believe the Democrat Party's making a mistake lurching leftward. I do believe also that they have expressed exactly their plans and now they make them a more easy target. But much, much fighting before then. Luke Ball is always fantastic to have you on, brother. Where can people find all of your awesome work?
- [37:05]
Luke Ball
Thanks, man. Just search Luke T. Ball on social media. You can find me there. And if you find yourself alienated from friends and family over politics, you can always come grab a drumstick at my Thanksgiving table.
- [37:15]
Rob Carson
All right, brother. Where do you live, by the way? I'm out.
- [37:18]
Luke Ball
We just moved to Round Hill, Virginia. So we are out past Percival, out past Leesburg. So it takes about an hour, 15 minutes getting into D.C. very far from me, brother.
- [37:27]
Rob Carson
We might have to get together for sure. All right, brother.
- [37:29]
Luke Ball
All right, let's do it.
- [37:31]
Rob Carson
All right, let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson.

Luke Ball
If anyone can show a nation betrayed by Donald Trump.

Rob Carson
No, I was going to play some audio from Zoran Mandami, but the audio quality is not very good. He called out Donald Trump last night. He was talking a big game, little punk that he is. You know, he had an easy ride. He was a Manchurian candidate. George Soros picked him out years ago. Linda Sarsour picked him out years ago. He sneaked in through the primary process and he had a lot of young, stupid people vote for him. And New York is going to Suffer greatly for it. Going to suffer greatly for it. I got a note from Edward on the Facebook. He says, I have friends who work for the fire department. New York City. So many are deciding to put in their papers, retire or just resign, go to another department outside of New York. They all see the writing on the wall. There will be a mass exodus. And this was, this was true in a poll that I saw before the election that most people thought they would see a return of the urban decay of the 1980s. Among voters age 30 and under, Van Dami has a massive 35 point over Cuomo. Among Democrats, Mondav had 54% support in Cuomo, who previously governed the state. 26%. 47% believe levels of crime and violence will get worse, with only 32% saying the city would be safe under Mamdani. Last year, there were 10 murders in the subway, felony assaults, up 55% since 2019. People were pushed out of the tracks at least 25 times in 2024 for voters under 30 years of age. 49% said they believe safety would improve under Mandami. 32% said said not over 65. Only 26% thought the city would be safer under Mandami. 50% said not. The poll found 43% of New Yorkers expected the number of businesses in the city to decrease under Mondami, with stores going under and potential entrepreneurs forced to head elsewhere. There you go. There you go. You rule over your pile of crap, man. Honestly. Good luck, New York. Yon yo. Yang yo. Only 23% thought the number of businesses would rise under the Democrat socialist. So he, he got it. He got his. You know, we had two crappy candidates and, and there you go. That's what you got. That's what New York has got. Here is Scott Jennings responding to Van Jones. Van Jones said that he couldn't believe that Mondami was so divisive in his speech last night. Scott.

Oh, are you saying he didn't. He wasn't the unifying voice of a.

The Socialist Party of America candidate. He repeatedly attacked people in this. I know my socialist.

Rob Carson
I keep a close eye on. Dami is going full throttle into the communist socialist. There's no reaching across the aisle. What's. And I have a feeling the descent of New York is going to happen faster. Than you can possibly imagine. We will see. Brianna Lyman's going to join us next. She's got some great thoughts on this. She's always awesome. She's, she's amazing. Also vdh, Victor Davis Hansen on the neo Confederate Democrat Party. That's what we got going on, by the way. But you know what? We're going to be just fine. We survived the last decade. We'll, we'll survive the next three. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show.
