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. It's President's Day. Do we really need Presidents Day off? Really? You know, I, I, I have a studio in a building where an architecture firm is, they build stuff. The, the father of the guy who owns the architecture firm, he built Dulles Airport and the older terminal at Reagan national and, and nobody's at work today. Why the heck should architects get President's Day off? Of all the, of all the things, of all the things you get. It's just weird. It's just kind of. Do we, you know, listen, I mean, it's nice to have holidays and everything. You know why holidays exist? To get through the mundanity of life. They give you something to look forward to. You know, it's like, you know, in the wintertime, the polar bears at the zoo, they give them blocks ice with fish in them and they give tigers pumpkins to play with because, you know, they go a little nuts in captivity and all of that. And I think that's what a lot of the holidays are there for. By the way. Think they are there because, you know, they keep them from us from going nuts. But maybe we got a little bit too much on the, on the nuts thing. Maybe we got a too many, too many with regard to holidays and President's Day. I don't know. I don't know what's wrong with working with Habitat anyway. I do want to mention a couple of things. The Munich conference. I didn't mention Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton is over there. I don't know why the hell she's over there. Honestly, she made herself super duper rich, you know, because she got a lot of money from Russian oligarchs who just happened to be investors in. In Ukraine and in Uranium One. The Uranium One deal. She got a lot of money after she arranged a deal with Uranium One to take 25% of our uranium in the United States. And she got. Ended up, hundreds of millions of dollars, she and her husband, into their charity that does nothing for charity. So there is that. And she's over there for some reason, and she decided, I guess she was going to host a seminar on women. So Fundamental Rights for Women is what the name of the panel was. And the first guest she had there was a dude, used to be a dude, born a dude. Never had ovaries, you know, never had, you know, never had a period, nothing like that. Had the male parts, had the twig and berries and all that. May still have it. I don't even know. Don't even know. But he was this Congressman Tim, quote, Sarah McBride, I'm sorry, a dead name. But here's her first guest on the women's panel is a dude.

[Sarah McBride]

Someone who's been former dude, you're dead.

[Rob Carson]

Sexy or dead naming or something involved.

[Sarah McBride]

In this work for a long time in trying to explain and truly bring people together around issues of gender. And that's Sarah McBride, U.S. congresswoman from the state of Delaware. You know, as a gender rights champion and also the first openly transgender member of the United States Congress, why would.

[Rob Carson]

You introduce that person before a woman?

[Sarah McBride]

You've been on the front lines of this fight, and you've also been on the receiving end of so many threats and attacks that come from. Again, no, not at all. In many ways, organized efforts.

[Rob Carson]

Not at all. Not one little bit. You're absolutely wrong about that. We just don't like to get preached out with regard to transgenderism and transgenderizing children. So there you go. Honestly, nobody's attacked her because of her. His decision, whatever the hell. And. And you always use that as some sort of victimology thing so you can shut people up. And that ain't gonna work. By the way, another thing that happened, it was really funny this weekend, Hillary Clinton was in a session and she got called out for her Trump derangement syndrome by a pro Trump Czech minister in Munich. Foreign Minister Petrae Macyka is the guy's name. And you could tell that she's lost a lot of her power because people are actually speaking out, you know, and challenging her in person. So I guess she's not able to have people murdered anymore. But did I say that out loud? Yeah, I did. Here she is getting called out in a most delicious fashion.

[Unknown Female Guest]

Well, first, I think you really don't like him.

[Sarah McBride]

You know, that is absolutely true.

[Rob Carson]

But I really.

[Sarah McBride]

Not only do I not.

[Rob Carson]

Is it because he kicked your very. Your. Your rear end in 2016.

[Sarah McBride]

I can. I don't.

[Rob Carson]

Very substantial rear end because of what.

[Sarah McBride]

He'S doing to the United States.

[Rob Carson]

Making it powerful. It's awesome.

[Sarah McBride]

Kicking butt and the world. And I think you should take a hard look at it if you think.

[Rob Carson]

The world's a much more peaceful place.

[Sarah McBride]

There is something good that will come out of it.

[Rob Carson]

Peter, what I think.

[Unknown Female Guest]

What I think Trump. Trump is doing in America, I think it. It is reaction, reaction, reaction for something that. For some policies that really went to.

[Chuck Schumer]

Yeah.

[Rob Carson]

Opening borders and, you know, bringing in all sorts of Islamists to take over.

[Unknown Female Guest]

Countries too far from the regular people.

[Rob Carson]

Like what?

[Sarah McBride]

Give us some examples.

[Unknown Female Guest]

So, you know, we saw the Cancel culture.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah.

[Unknown Female Guest]

That's that. We saw the woke revolution. Yeah, we. I don't agree with the gender revolution. The climate alarmism.

[Rob Carson]

Gender. Women having their rights, women having no rights. Rights. Where the hell that come from?

[Liz Collins]

No, let.

[Rob Carson]

Peter go on.

[Unknown Female Guest]

I think there are two genders. So yeah, some of us can be.

[Rob Carson]

How about. Shut up.

[Unknown Female Guest]

Think that there is more than you.

[Rob Carson]

Want to get murdered.

[Unknown Female Guest]

One or more than two. Sorry, more than two. Gender. I think there is male and female and the rest is a social construct. So this is something that went too far.

[Sarah McBride]

But does that justify selling out the people of Ukraine who are on the front line?

[Rob Carson]

What are you getting from Ukraine girlfriend.

[Sarah McBride]

And dying to say they're free.

[Rob Carson]

He's trying to freaking bring peace to Ukraine. Joe Biden invited Russia to go in.

[Sarah McBride]

And they're two genders, if that's what you're worried about.

[Unknown Female Guest]

Can I please finish?

[Rob Carson]

I don't know. You're the woman who introduced a dude to a women's woman's session.

[Unknown Female Guest]

My points. I'm. I'm sorry that it makes you. Makes you nervous. I'm really sorry for that.

[Sarah McBride]

Make me nervous. It makes me.

[Deplorabella]

No, no, no, no. But seriously, can we.

[Rob Carson]

Let me to finish, please. She doesn't like to get challenged very often when she doesn't have the power to, you know, whatever she did. By the way, Brian Deplorabella, let's let's keep her for the next segment, okay? Because I got into this here. Deplorabella is going to chime in here real quick. She's got some thoughts on, on Marco, Ruby, and I want to hear what she has to say. All right. I want to hear what she has to say, but I'm not going to have time to do that right now. So. So there you go. I think one more, one more thing that I'll say about this, this. Now I'm not, you know what? I'm going to move on. I'm going to move on from the, from the, the Munich summit and talk about, you know, election integrity, because the Democrat Party doesn't want elections to be free and fair. Now, notice they went to Munich and they went over there to Munich and they talked about how Donald Trump is requiring an ID to vote, and most of the countries there require an ID to vote. And so the only country in the world where politicians of the opposing party and governors and whatnot from the country come over to bad mouth their country, the United States of America, is telling the world, oh, my God, can you believe that? Donald Trump wants to ensure that the people who vote are the people who vote and only citizens can vote when the entire world basically requires an ID to vote. And here is Kristi Noem with the. I mean, honestly, this is bad guano, crazy stuff. She is way off the deep end on this. Here is why she says we need voter integrity. And again, this is just, I mean, so extreme.

[Sarah McBride]

And elections is another one of those critical infrastructure responsibilities that I have as well. And I would say that many people believe that it may be one of the most important things that we need to make sure we trust is reliable and that when it gets to election day, that we've been proactive to make sure that we have the right people voting, electing the right leaders to lead this country through the days that we have, knowing that people can trust it.

[Rob Carson]

Wow. That wasn't actually extreme at all. It was commonsensical. It was commonsensical. And it's kind of funny because what the left is saying is nonsensical. And here is Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries trying to convince you that it is common sense not to require identification.

[Chuck Schumer]

Why is it that ICE agents who are untrained are being unleashed on American communities with this type of lawlessness, violence and brutality, Unacceptable, unconscionable, and it's un American. I believe they'll have no choice but to go along with us because it's so common sense and so much supported by the.

[Rob Carson]

Now he was talking about ice. That's another thing that is common sense by the way. You should be able to to let border patrol go after people who are here illegally here. Here is though, here is the nonse stuff from Chuck Schumer doubling down when he's confronted with how many Democrats want voter ID doubling down on Jim Crow 2.0.

[Chuck Schumer]

In our legislation we say that ICE agents should not be anywhere near polling places. Again, I think most why not agree you talk to people that only people.

[Rob Carson]

Got to worry about it are people who are here illegally trying to vote.

[Chuck Schumer]

Polling places who operate the polling places. They don't want these ICE agents float. Floating near.

[Rob Carson]

Doesn't matter.

[Chuck Schumer]

Doesn't matter what they want them intimidating them.

[Rob Carson]

About 83% of the American people, including majority Democrats support voter ID laws. And listen to his response.

[Chuck Schumer]

The voter ID laws that first, each state can have its own voter ID laws and some do and some don't.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, Democrat states always cheat.

[Chuck Schumer]

But secondly, what they are proposing in this so called save act is like Jim Crow 2.0. They make it so hard to get any kind of voter ID.

[Rob Carson]

Not at all.

[Chuck Schumer]

More than 20 million legitimate people, mainly poorer people and people of color will not be able to vote under this law. We will not let it pass in the Senate. We are fighting it tooth.

[Rob Carson]

And remember, every time they do that, every time they think less of you, whether you be a woman or whether you be a person of color, it's an insult. It is an absolute insult. You need your ID to do everything from getting a fisher license to renting a car to buying a house. And I dare you to go into any one of those people asking you for an id. Just tell them I don't have an ID because it's racist and sexist. Good luck getting on that airplane. Okay, Good luck getting on that airplane. Let's take a break. Coming back, we got Deplorabell on the other side. Don't go anywhere.

[Liz Collins]

One thing I would like to see.

[Deplorabella]

Updated is the word homeless to the word unhoused.

[Rob Carson]

How about new?

[Chuck Schumer]

It's shocking and it's disappointing that we are on the edge of a major crisis with Iran. President Trump is masterfully managing the buildup of forces around Iran. He's laid out the red lines. You've got to give us what remains of your nuclear program that was obliterated. We have to have your missiles. You have to stop supporting terrorists and you have to stop killing your people. Wait it out. He's given Them about a month or so, or there will be extreme trauma. So we have hundreds of thousands of American men and women in the Navy and the army in harm's way. And we get AOC Gretchen Whitmer and Gavin Newsom sliming America, as you say.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, they made fools of themselves on the world stage going into a foreign country and badmouthing our country and the President, United States. Honestly, to heck with them. Hey, hey, kids, It's Deplorabella. Deplorabella. Haven't heard from you a while. Welcome to the Rob Carson Show. How are you?

[Deplorabella]

Thank you, thank you. I'm calling about the Marxist mullahs who are motivated by a suicidal pathology that spawned the conjoined twins of multiculturalism and moral relativism. So while Rubio was doing a fine job trying to make not only America, but the transatlantic alliance and Western civilization great, again, the people in that audience were working to undermine it. And I want to speak specifically about Tommy Robinson. He's the blue collar Charlie Kirk. He's the working class Douglas Murray. He's the man in Britain who organized protests against the Pakistani groomer grooming gangs, who over decades, and with the compliance, complicity and acquiescence of every political party that's held control in Great Britain, they have been able to addict, groom, prostitute, sometimes even murder up to a million British white working girls. This is intolerable. And what has the government done? Have they prosecuted or done anything about these people? No. They've permitted more Islamists to enter the country and they. They have persecuted Tommy Robinson. He has been imprisoned, he has been threatened, he has been assaulted, he has had his businesses interfered with and his family intimidated. And here's the latest. A policeman from a local police force in Britain phoned Tommy Robinson two days ago to tell him that he was on the list for imminent assassination by an Islamist group. And they gave him the name of the magazine that printed this threat, this kind of fatwa. And they told him that the counterintelligence, counterterrorism people had authenticated this plot. They refused to let Tommy dig up that manifesto on the Internet. They said if he did so, if he brought up that magazine, which Islamists were free to publish, he would be considered guilty of a terrorist act. Then he asked what he could do to protect himself. Could he have a gun or any weapon? They said no. No guns, no preemptive actions. You can do nothing, including in your own home, because to do so would be act of terrorism. And their advice to him was, sit tight and hope for the best, mate. These are the words of a government and its police force that would like to see Tommy Robinson dead. Because Tommy Robinson called attention to the fact that here, Stormer and his little buddy Sadiq Khan, the Pak of London, have protected the Pakistani grooming gangs. They've done nothing to prosecute them. So here is a man told, you have no right to self defense. Defense. You have no right to look up a manifesto that has singled you out for death. And we will do nothing to protect you or to deal with them. This is outrageous. And this should be a cautionary tale for Americans. For those people who are worried about endless wars. Let me remind you, Islam has waged a 1400 year war against the west and the world and all the infidels. Their plan is a global caliphate. And the communists have waged a 300 year year war. Sometimes violence from the French Revolution up through now, sometimes infiltration like the Gramsci model or the Chinese model.

[Rob Carson]

You'll notice that in a very eloquent fashion, Marco Rubio pushed back on all of that, particularly with regard to Christianity. And he got a standing ovation. I thought it was a masterful oratory. What did you think?

[Sarah McBride]

I agree.

[Deplorabella]

And I would like to see him as a president. I think he has the oratory, I think he has the knowledge base. I think he has the dedication to the Judeo Christian ethic. I think he has an understanding that Western civilization is not something to apologize for. It is exceptional. It is exemplary.

[Rob Carson]

Did you like what he said? Did you like. You know, and it was actually beautiful. He talked about like the Germans who came here and moved to the Midwest and farmed the fields. My ancestors, by the way, after the turn of century, the Irish, the, you know, all of these groups that came over from Europe and lived with the ability to worship who they want to worship, the ability to express yourself and defend yourself with a gun and all of these rights. And they were able to do that and make America. And I just thought it was. I thought it was a brilliant, brilliant speech. And I thought, I thought the Democrats ended up looking like complete morons, to be quite honest.

[Deplorabella]

Well, not only are they morons, not only are they stupid and insipid, but they are revolutionaries and they are absolutely committed. And this can be traced to their funding, their rhetoric and their behavior. They are absolutely committed to undermining this country, installing their own little elites in the name of the proletariat and consolidating control. That is why they are so opposed to the SAVE Act. That is why they are so opposed to free and fair elections or the deportation of one illegal. Because those people are their constituents. That's what this is about.

[Rob Carson]

Yes. And here's the thing, you know, I like to say, overwhelm them with joy and patriot, patriotism. Let Donald Trump handle the butt kicking. But there's going to have to be a butt kicking because they are unrelenting. They are unrelenting. They're trying to come back places like Canada with restricting conservative speech online. The same goes with Great Britain. All of this, they never stop. They never stop. So they have to be beaten into the ground. They have to be taken out of our misery. And the Democrat Party has to have a new order and a new guard. Otherwise it has to disappear into the dustbin of history. Deplorabella. We gotta run. I know. You're on. You're on substack at Deplorabella, right?

[Deplorabella]

That's correct.

[Rob Carson]

All right, my dear. Great to hear from you. God bless you. You're a warrior. You kick butt. We'll talk again soon, okay?

[Deplorabella]

You bet.

[Rob Carson]

All right. She's awesome. She's awesome. And you know what? She. She could actually own the show. If I let her own the show, she would own the show because she is just remarkable. Absolutely remarkable. Scott Pressler was. Was out talking about the SAVE Act. He's been in. In Pennsylvania. Listen to what he had to say when somebody said a person of color approached him about Jim Crow 2.0 and voter ID.

[Scott Pressler]

I even reached out to Congressman Chip Roy and I reached out to Senator Mike Lee saying, how are we going to make sure that our beautiful Amish are going to be able to vote? And I've heard that there's even going to be a religious exemption. And you know, I was at the Great American Outdoor show today in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. I had an older black man come up to me and he goes, scott, are you the architect of the Steve America Act? I said, no, sir, but I'm a supporter of it.

[Rob Carson]

Yes.

[Scott Pressler]

And he goes, you give a message to Chuck Schumer. I said, yes, sir. He goes, it's offensive to my community that Democrats senators, especially white Democrat senators, are saying that we are incapable of getting ID. And so this is an issue that 84% of Americans support. We're going through with the passing the Save America Act.

[Rob Carson]

And by the way, Democrats have been doing this to people of color for 150 years. It's the same modus operandi about control. That's what it's all about. Coming up, great investigative reporter Liz Collins with regard to massive corruption in the state of Minnesota on the other side of the break. Don't go anywhere. Hey guys, it's Carson for relief factor. You know, one of the most rewarding parts of sharing relief factor with you is all the real stories like Sandra's. She tells us. I'd been hearing about relief factor on the radio for a couple of years, finally decided to try it because nothing else has helped my back pain. With the three week quick start, I went for it. Now I feel like a new person. Those are Sandra's own words and it's just so gratifying to hear. I've experienced that kind of relief myself. And knowing folks like Sandra out there are feeling better makes it all worth it. Try it for yourself with a three week quick start. See how relief factor could be a game changer too. Call 800 for relief, that's 804 relief. Or go to relieffactor.com that's relieffactor.com how will it feel to be out of pain? The federal government needs to pay for what they broke here. They are going to be accountability on.

[Chuck Schumer]

The things that happen.

[Rob Carson]

But one of the things is the incredible and immense costs that we were.

[Chuck Schumer]

Born by the people of this state.

[Rob Carson]

The federal government needs to be responsible. You don't get to break things and then just leave without doing something about it. So we're going to be asking the federal delegation to be investing and doing the things necessary. Yeah, we'll get right on the stroke of the check there, Timmy, as soon as you pay us back the $18 billion. You're, you're, well, part of your, your population stole from us. Oh, my goodness. It's hilarious. Liz Collin is an alpha news journalist like me reaching her zenith in her career right now as an investigative journalist. She joins us on the Newsmax hotline. Hello, Liz. How are you?

[Liz Collins]

Hey, doing well, Rob. How are you today?

[Rob Carson]

I'm good. Did you do a spit take when Tim Waltz said that he wanted to be paid for the damage that the radicals in Minnesota have done to their city?

[Liz Collins]

Yeah, it's really quite something. I mean, nothing really should surprise us in Minnesota anymore. But yeah, this is, this is the guy fully supporting the walkouts. There have been many of them. They continue and then we're supposed to, supposed to, you know, turn around and then say, hey, I think it's $10 million one time emergency relief package that he's now proposing. These forgivable loans to small businesses have been affected.

[Rob Carson]

Well, because actually you want that money just shut down, just shut down a couple of the daycare centers that don't have any children.

[Liz Collins]

That would solve it.

[Deplorabella]

Right?

[Rob Carson]

There's your $10 million. I want to, I haven't talked to you really since Donald Trump did the, the drawdown. There are still apprehensions happening on arrests and whatnot. And I think he kind of effectively not completely diffused the Democrat rage machine in the Twin Cities. How have things changed since he, he sent home and up there?

[Liz Collins]

Yeah, you know, Holman was definitely busy behind the scenes meeting. I think he met with every single sheriff in Minnesota. So there's 87 counties here. So he's busy with that. And I think he's more of a behind the scenes. I mean, he certainly held a couple press conferences and whatnot, but didn't seem to, you know, need to keep people up to speed on every, every one of the moves that he was making. But we're going to see, I think, some of this. This week we had 3,000 agents that came to Minnesota and they've started to leave. First it was 700. It sounds like they're kind of leaving in certain waves. But he did say this this weekend. He was interviewed on several shows and, you know, did make it clear that many of them would stay here and remember that, you know, there is a busy ICE office that has been here for years. So these, these guys are staying here. They're local people and they will continue their work as well. And, you know, he did talk about that unprecedented cooperation now that they have in Minnesota that the jails will let them know, you know, if these folks need to be picked up there. So this chaos isn't spilling out onto the streets like we've seen, you know, now for months.

[Rob Carson]

Let me ask you this. Why do you suppose Volts, Tim Voltz and Jacob Fry capitulated on this? Was it starting to impact them, do you suppose, in a very negative fashion. I know a lot of business owners are sick and damn tired of what's going on in the state of Minnesota and the city of Minneapolis.

[Liz Collins]

Yeah, you know, I think that they kind of had no other choice. I mean, this has been going on for. And also, I guess you can really just say that this didn't really have to happen at all the way that they, this all, all went down. But they did, you know, they did. They were able to arrest, I think it's more than 4,000 people. I mean, these are not, you know, they want to frame them as, you know, your neighbors that are being picked up, murderers and rapists. And, you know, the worst of the worst. They definitely got a Lot of those in Minnesota. Not only the 4,000, but they talked about on Friday, home and announcing that 3,300 missing children were found in Minnesota. So they've definitely done a lot of work here. And, you know, as Hillman pointed out, these are kids that, you know, the last administration didn't even care about at all, didn't even know who they were. So I think that's pretty concerning.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, I saw Abby Phillips calling out Scott Jennings on that and basically saying, oh, I don't know if 3,300 children were rescued. I'm like, I mean, do you have to be so anti Trump that you can't celebrate children who were trafficked into the country? And we know there were hundreds of thousands. There is copious evidence that they were given to people unvetted. Unvetted. Can you not at least celebrate the freedom of children from potential bondage and abuse, for God's sake?

[Liz Collins]

Yeah, we've been reporting on this for years. I mean, we were there at the border ourselves. We were the only Minnesota crew to even go down there. I saw for myself coming over that were alone. Not only that, but we had people basically walking the street, Lake street in Minneapolis, looking for work. And then we would track them. Some of them had families here to different shelters that were set up in Hennepin county, different hotels that were given money to house some of these people. That went on. And then we were reporting just a couple years ago about how the Minneapolis school district, half of the kids that they accepted were what they called new to country. 2500 students that did not speak English. That was just in the news. Well, in the news because of us, but nobody else reported on it. But that's 2,500 non English speakers that were enrolled just in the Minneapolis school district alone.

[Rob Carson]

Well, my kids were in Germantown, Maryland, and we moved to Kansas about 10, 11 years ago, and we were told that Maryland schools were fantastic. And we get out there, and my daughter is in fifth grade. She was reading and doing math at third grade. And then I asked them, I said, why do you suppose in a state where the schools are so great that my daughter is so far behind? And they said, because she goes to an impacted school district. Meaning that English is a second language to most of the students, and certainly the parents don't even speak it, and it really kills learning for other kids.

[Liz Collins]

Oh, absolutely. And the Minneapolis school district, when they gave us this information, they were sort of bragging about, you know, this population. They were welcoming them in, and they've had just A steep decline in enrollment these last few years. And I think that that is a huge factor that they're teaching a completely different way now when you have all of these kids of all ages that have started at different levels that do not speak English.

[Rob Carson]

Liz Collin, Alpha News. By the way, doing great work. I've been seeing stories now. I think I saw KCTV5 report about construction companies are suffering because illegals are being rounded up or afraid to come to work, which says to me maybe you should hire legal people to work for you. Also a lot of businesses in restaurants and whatnot in Minneapolis being impacted by this. Do you suppose we're in the midst of a correction where business owners up there are gonna have to realize they have to hire legally?

[Liz Collins]

Yeah, I mean, I think that, you know, these are the consequences of sanctuary policies and they've really been put on full display. Sanctuary states, sanctuary cities like Minneapolis and St. Paul, they've tried to, you know, go to war with the federal government. I don't think it's really gone so well. But yeah, it'll be interesting to see, I think just over these next few months what this is all going to be look like. I will say that the, you know, many organizations backing today, more walkouts, they have another protest planned. And these are organizations that align themselves with communism. That's basically in there in all of their titles. I think it's two dozen groups that are behind a big march today. You know, the Communist Party and the Minneapolis Teachers Federation, they're big into to that. But you know, we have, we have a big activist group here in Minnesota and as the weather warms, I think we'll be hearing even more from them.

[Rob Carson]

Dear God. Can you hold on through the next break, Liz?

[Liz Collins]

Yes, absolutely.

[Rob Carson]

Good. I've got a lot of things I want to get to, including are they actually sending particularly Somalis from the United States? What has happened to all the money being shipped to Somalia and a few other things on the other side of the break. Let's take a break and come back. Back more with the Liz Collin Alpha news on the Rob Carson Show. Don't go anywhere. Hey guys, it's Carson for Shopify.

Those who are not a national security threat or public safety, public safety risk, you are not exempt from immigration enforcement actions. If you're in the country legally, you are not off the table. There you go. That is Tom Holman speaking in Minneapolis, actually saying that they're not going to stop deporting people who are here illegally. And you know, whether or not this, this remains a little bit calmer in Minneapolis is yet to be seen. As Liz Colin mentioned, the weather is getting a little bit warmer up there and once it gets past like above 19 degrees, people start wearing flip flops and cargo shorts, for God's sake. I, I live there. Liz joins us on the Newsmax hotline. Liz, so you're saying that now a lot of protests are happening. I think did Trump kind of rattle them a little bit by bringing in Homan? And maybe they kind of a little directionless because they were, they were very focused. They were doing these, you know, barricades in neighborhoods. They had this massive, you know, cabal of people going all the way up to the lieutenant governor, you know, warning people, you know, who's here following license plates. Has any of that, was it broken apart and it's kind of regrouping? What do you suppose?

[Liz Collins]

Yeah, I think that the police departments now actually started cooperating. That's something that we saw. I mean, for the longest time, Minneapolis police would be out on scene, but they would not, let's say, arrest anybody that, you know for blowing their horns at night at a hotel in Minneapolis. Instead, the state patrol would come in to do that. It made absolutely no sense. So there was definitely a change under Homan. That police department are just arresting people that are doing this. And, you know, sometimes it's dozens of arrests in the evening hours when these things are taking place. So I think that's made a big difference as well. We've seen several mass arrests, whether it's 40 at a time, 50 at a time. And voila they don't seem to come back. The numbers seem to have dwindled. So I think there's been some help with just some local law enforcement cooperation.

[Rob Carson]

I had heard that there were flights leaving the Minneapolis St. Paul Airport with illegals. And obviously we've been focusing on the Somali community. I've been hearing that. And also, you know, they were shipping out, what, sometimes a million dollars a day from Minneapolis St. Paul Airport, bringing money in from Columbus via the airport and then out to Somalia or wherever. I would assume that has stopped.

[Liz Collins]

Yeah, you know, I was doing some interviews recently. Some TSA agents that came forward and they were talking about 1 to 2 to 3 million dollars a week they would see leave the airport. And this was years ago, but we had Treasury Secretary Scott Bessett actually was here announcing that, you know, this is ending, this is over. And we have seen a couple seizures of just large amounts of cash, not along those lines, but tens of thousands of dollars seized at the Minneapolis airport since that was announced. And also money transfers. The treasury secretary talked about that as well, how that number was greatly reduced and not that much money would be allowed to be transferred back to Somalia anymore.

[Rob Carson]

What about all the fraud? Donald Trump said that the investigation is going to continue into, into what's going on. But Keith Ellison was grilled on Capitol Hill last week. What have you heard about that? Because it doesn't sound like they're abandoning criminal investigation using not only the IRS but the FBI as well.

[Liz Collins]

Yeah, Holman actually even talked about that too, that these fraud investigations are, are not going anywhere. And we've heard that from Pam Bondi also. So I think more to come on that these investigations, they may seem pretty clear cut when you go into an empty business, but you know, they do have to seize bank accounts. And I know that these investigations can take months, if not longer. I know many of us are getting kind of impatient, but I do know that these programs in these places are being looked at. You can tell that there's some sort of effort, you know, by Walls and Company to keep a lid on this with their. They've had 150 state employees they've recruited to go out and do their own investigations into these places. However, these places are getting a heads up for when these investigators come to the business. So what do you think is going to happen? Right.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah.

[Liz Collins]

So we'll have to see if the feds are able to get past are.

[Rob Carson]

Some of these fraudulent daycares and transportation companies and whatnot. Have they been cut off? Are they shutting down.

[Liz Collins]

Well, they did shut down basically 14 programs that were getting a lot of this funding, Medicaid funding. So that certainly has made a difference. But, you know, some of these programs, they said they're just basically all fraud and they've shut down, you know, just a couple altogether that they, they've announced. But there's 14 kind of programs there they've really been focused on and they're, and that is what they came up with, that $9 billion in fraud. But it definitely goes much, you know, much larger than that.

[Rob Carson]

I think clearly the DFL and the city of Minneapolis and St. Paul have controlled the political fortunes of the people of Minnesota. And Minnesota, if I'm not mistaken, has voted for Donald Trump three times. Do you suppose the people of Minnesota are sick and damn tired of these people being in charge?

[Liz Collins]

Well, they actually have not the people outside of the cities have voted for Donald Trump. But yes, there's definitely, there's definitely people that are very sick and tired of that. I will just say, though, you know, I kind of chuckle with the voting because, you know, we think that there's billions of dollars in fraud in Minnesota, but our voting is all on the up and up.

[Rob Carson]

Years ago you knew this years ago, they're harvesting boats in little Somalia. Dear God in heaven. Duh. This came out years ago. Everybody knows this. It is dreadful. It is really dreadful. I enjoyed my time in the Twin Cities sans the winter and I hope it comes around eventually. But it sounds like you're, you know, got a long way to go before you get it all gutted and cleaned up.

[Liz Collins]

I will say my son is outside in his T shirt as the snow is melting.

[Rob Carson]

What is the temperature today? What's the high gonna be?

[Liz Collins]

Oh, it's, I think we're approaching 53 today, which is down like a tropical for February.

[Rob Carson]

Now have the, has the lake, has the ice dropped yet on in Lake Calhoun and La Lake of the Isles, or is it still there?

[Liz Collins]

It's not. Yeah, we don't have ice out quite yet, but it is kind of a sloppy mess. It's been a few days actually of 50s, so.

[Rob Carson]

Well, Minneapolis, Minneapolis is a sloppy mess to be quiet. Liz Collins, thank you for joining me. Where can people find all your glorious work?

[Liz Collins]

LIZ Collins ON X and AlphaNews.org, we're also Alpha News on X as well. Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel to Alpha Newsmn. That's where you can find my interviews. I talk to all kinds of newsmakers you don't see on the local news in, in Minnesota.

[Rob Carson]

So you're awesome. You're awesome. All right, let's. Thank you very much. Appreciate it. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson show. So ROB Carson Show. So liberal women are going friggin nuts. And this is not a, not a surprise. Women, for liberal women particularly have been subject to social contagion for a very long time time from the, from the Salem witch trials through the Charlie Manson and family and all of that and now just going back guano crazy. And the great thing is is, you know, they're saying like nurses who are have TDS are saying, I'm not going to treat Trump supporters, I'm going to murder them. You know, and that's nuts. That's insane. But another thing that's really insane is they're driven so insane with TDS that they want to leave the country even though nothing in the country is impacting them at all. There's no discrimination, there's no increase in whatever. Only opportunity.

[Liz Collins]

Americans say they want to leave the country permanently. This is according to a new Gallup poll. 20% of people say they want to live somewhere else. That's one in five. And the shift is mainly driven by young women ages 15 to 44. 40% of them say that they want to go. And Martha and I. Yeah, there you go.

[Rob Carson]

And they also were the ones who believed that children could change their gender because they're nuts. And they, and they think Luigi Mangioni is dreamy. I know, I know. Because they're nuts. Are you better sit down for this one? Now I understand the upset about Epstein and all that Pam Bondi released all the files going into that next hour. But this woman is not only that she's acting this way, but she's putting it on social media shows. Did I mention she's nuts?

[Liz Collins]

How, how, how are these people still running this country? Our leaders, our pedophiles, they enjoy graping children.

[Rob Carson]

Children.

[Liz Collins]

What are we doing?

[Rob Carson]

Kind of scary. Well, they have a lot of cats and they're all Democrats. We call them Karens. They're too crazy for cats. They have a whiny voice. They are all pro choice and mostly barren. They're cat ladies. Whoa, whoa, whoa. They're cat ladies. Talking about some miserable ladies who have clearly lost their. There you go. That is Jim Gossett, by the way. I had to cut that off, I guess on what happened. Anyway, Jim Gossett comedy. Just go to patreon.com Jim Gossett comedy. This is a social contagion and a mania that we will hopefully look back on like we did the Salem witch trials ago. What the hell? What the hell were we thinking? But not anytime soon, because there are so many of them. And they end up being governors of states like New Jersey and Virginia. Virginia. We'll get to that next hour. 70% increase in unemployment claims in Virginia since Abigail Spamberger became the governor. Nice job. This is the Rob Carson Show. Our number three right ahead. Don't go anywhere.
