[Rob Carson Show Producer/Interjector]

Hold it. Now,

[Rob Carson]

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 Parson Show.

[News Reporter]

Just moments ago, President Trump issued a new warning to Iran. He posted on Truth Social, saying, from this point forward, anytime the Islamic Republic of Iran shoots at a ship in the Strait of Hormuz, whether it be by missile, rocket, drone or any other device or weapon, the United States will bomb and destroy one bridge or power plant, including those located next to.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Quid pro quo, Clarice. Quid pro quo.

[News Reporter]

Or in the capital city of Tehran. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

[Greg Gutfeld]

There you go. So that's what's happening. Iran bleeps around, they're going to find out Donald Trump is laying down the law. Eleven days into this, by the way, just bombing a snot out of Iran. I've got some stuff I want to get to. What is it? Pickaxe Mountain. They ought to call it Kick Ass Mountain. We're going after Pickaxe Mountain. Now, here's the deal. We bombed the Iran nuclear sites back in the earlier in the year with the B2s and whatnot. And apparently they took some of their centrifuges and moved them to Pickaxe Mountain. And all of the nuclear dust is still in the ground, buried over there. And now Donald Trump has heard, oh, really? You're going to move the, you're going to move those centrifuges? Well, here's the deal. We're going to bomb the snot out of you.

[Rob Carson]

Now how about these people? They're in this because of nuclear weapons and they're trying to possibly reconstitute a site. We'll hit that site, any site where they're even thinking about nuclear. We'll be hitting it very, very powerfully.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Do you believe that Iran has moved nuclear centrifuges into pickaxe moun?

[Rob Carson]

It doesn't mean anything unless they have the material they don't have. We follow the material. That's where the action is. And we'll be hitting that area very pretty soon. It's not, not a thing they can do.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah, we're going to call it Kick Ass Mountain. That's what I want to call it. Blaine Holt was on Newsmax last night. I know, I know Blaine Holt, he's awesome. He's, you know, a Brigadier general. He's got this, this great podcast that he does. Dangerous intellectuals is what it is here is what he says is going happen. This is what also has to happen in Iran.

[Pete Hegseth]

Yeah, so there's a difference here.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Oh, and by the way, it's what I've been saying, I don't know for about six months.

[Pete Hegseth]

What we'll do is we will be a support function to an Iranian revolution. They have to take back their country. Look, twice before we have provided 130,000 US forces into decades long wars that led to nowhere. What we wanted, what we're not going to do is what Secretary Hegseth is talking about, which is clandestine services coming.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Do you ever think that maybe the DSA not supporting Israel and the Democrats who are voted against supporting Israel maybe don't want Israel to go in and do the butt kicking on the ground in Iran to finish a job. You ever think about that?

[Pete Hegseth]

I'm thinking that and executing a color revolution like the kind we saw in Maidan, that also goes nowhere fast. That's something that we manufacture. This is completely organic. And the Iranian people will never have a better opportunity in their lives indeed to then to go grab their country back for themselves themselves right now. Now they can't do it by themselves because the IRGC has combat capability. But what we will do is we will jacket them with air power. They want to bomb somewhere, they've got it, they need resupply, they'll get it. We're just not going to bring in divisions of force.

[Greg Gutfeld]

And if there needs to be any sort of special forces, then it's going to have to be done by Israel. There you go. They're in the hood. They're right there in the hood. They got to do something about it. Isn't it amazing the Democrat Party has not done anything to and said anything positive about our military in this action at all. Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing. The only thing they do is occasionally, like for instance, two, three military members just were killed by a missile attack and then one by a drone. And they only use that. They won't even mention the names. They only use it as way as we should have never gotten this. They've said nothing about how great our military has been through this, completely neutering the military industrial complex in Iran. Not a damn thing. Not a thing. The Democrat Party, the military, you guys have got to know this Democrat Party is not on your side at all whatsoever. And it's clearly the case when it comes to Pete Hegseth yesterday on Capitol Hill. You know they want to fund $250 billion to Ukraine thus far, this military operation. $35 billion, a drop in the buc compared to Ukraine. But all they can do is complain about it. Then also have you noticed no Democrats have said wow, wouldn't it be great if the people of Iran were free? Remember all of the dancing and celebrating when the Ayatollah was killed? Remember that Democrats wouldn't even carry it on the networks. Millions of people around the world dancing, celebrating the possibility of freedom for the people of Iran after 47 years. It should tell you all you need to know. Jesse Waters last night, he has some really good one of the and I don't like to promote the competition all but the guy does a really good job. Very concise, very pithy and really good commentary on what is happening and how we're going to have to work with Israel to end this Iran nonsense.

[News Analyst]

The option on the President's desk right now is an all out war that would include pickaxe. Sources say Israel would come in to help deliver the final blow. The Israelis are already on high alert and preparing to go full scale. Go F16s and F35s are moving into theater.

[Greg Gutfeld]

And this is why the Democrats don't want to help out Israel anymore.

[News Analyst]

Refueling planes are being pre positioned. The Iranians say they still want to negotiate but talks are off.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah, a little too late there junior.

[News Analyst]

The United States says they're not coming back into the table until the Iranians show they're serious.

[Pete Hegseth]

Iran's been given every opportunity to negotiate, to show that they're reasonable on the Strait of Hormuz. But if they're going to shoot at commercial shipping, then we're Going to hit them, as the President said, ten times harder, which every night we're degrading them further and further. And the President has all the options necessary. If they want to talk, they can talk. Otherwise, they can deal with the War Department.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Talk to the hand.

[Scott Bessant]

Here you go.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Here is Jesse Waters talking about. Listen to this. Do you know who's been in the White House the last couple of days? The leader of Iraq. What?

[Adam Gillette]

Really?

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah, yeah. And Lebanon as well. Listen to this.

[News Analyst]

Because Gulf countries are skipping the strait. Iraq just visited the White House and they signed off on Chevron finishing a pipeline from Baghdad to Syria into the Mediterranean.

[Greg Gutfeld]

What's that gonna do?

[News Analyst]

Iran won't be able to clip any tankers because the tankers will be off the coast of.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah, they're not going through the Straits of Hormuz.

[News Analyst]

Chevron's also going to drill, baby, drill in southern Iraq.

[Rob Carson Show Producer/Interjector]

Iraq.

[News Analyst]

And ConocoPhillips just took a huge stake in Iraqi oil. Remember, Trump said we should.

[Greg Gutfeld]

That's going to drive down the cost of oil worldwide.

[News Analyst]

Taking the oil. Well, there you go. Starlink is going to start operating.

[Greg Gutfeld]

This is the death of the grip of Iran's Islamist terrorist cabal.

[News Analyst]

Iraq. Even JP Morgan is going to open a Baghdad branch.

[Rob Carson]

What?

[News Analyst]

Those deals are worth 60 billion. So we've pulled Iraq, Syria and Lebanon away from the mullahs and we're selling the Arabs 2 trillion in AI plus weapons. Russia and China aren't even in the sandbox.

[Rob Carson]

Wow.

[Greg Gutfeld]

This is crazy. It's a millennial peace. It's an amazing moment. It's a Berlin Wall moment for the Middle East. And the Democrat Party doesn't want to play along because they're on the wrong side of history and the wrong side of everything. Brigitte Gabriel, frequently a guest on this radio program. Here she is telling how we need to finish the job. And, by the way, felt that Donald Trump was a little too patient with the length of the ceasefire.

[Commercial Announcer]

By the way, 1500 missiles left, which they have now, and about 150 to 175 launchers. And now they're going through them. That's, you know, so we have destroyed 75% of their military capability.

[Greg Gutfeld]

They're shooting their wad, and we just

[Commercial Announcer]

needed to finish the job. The unfortunate thing that we did is.

[Greg Gutfeld]

That's a reference to the long guns in the civil war, by the way.

[Commercial Announcer]

Hunter went into a cease fire too early. And you know what? This is the same thing that happened to Israel with Gaza, with Hamas, and this is exactly what we did with Iran. We should not have gone with the ceasefire. But the Arabic state were putting pressure on President Trump. They were saying, look, they're going to attack us. Let's give them peace a chance. Let's, let's hit the pause button, let's have a cease fire. And that's what you end up with. I believe right now we're ramping up the operation and we're going to continue fighting them. President Trump now knows that negotiations is a waste of time with the Iranians and he will finish the oh, I

[Greg Gutfeld]

hope so, I hope so, I hope so. Pete Hegseth was on Capitol Hill yesterday. He's doing a great job as the Secretary of War. He really is. He's doing a kick butt job as Secretary of War. The military is proud right now. The people in the military are very proud of what they're doing. People going into the military recruitment is at an all time high. We have had an amazing success rate in Iran with very few casualties. We've gone in, we've kicked ass, we've taken names, most of those names. Mohammed here is Pete Hegseth.

[Pete Hegseth]

Iran is at the weakest point militarily ever been in, in the past decade, certainly maybe in 47 years as they've gathered effectively a terror army.

[Greg Gutfeld]

So you wouldn't hear that from Democrats

[Pete Hegseth]

though acknowledge they still have capabilities, no doubt, but the amount of, the amount of damage that we've done to them over the course of these series of operations has put them in the worst place they've ever been. The Biden administration ignored hypersonics. They just decided to pretend like that technology didn't exist.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah, they didn't do anything except for, you know, let men pretending to be women be the leaders in the military. And then Lloyd Austin went to the hospital, didn't tell anybody about it.

[Pete Hegseth]

We shouldn't invest in it. There are things, I don't know what Lloyd Austin did for four years, the amount of neglect, the amount of stale thinking and bureaucracy was staggering. When we took.

[Greg Gutfeld]

That's Dick Durbin trying to talk over the Secretary of War because, you know, he's Dick Durbin. Here is Pete Hagseth just kind of reminding me why, why were the Democrats so gung ho on sending $250 billion to Ukraine where Hunter Biden, the on the board of directors for an oil company and oh, okay. And then of course there was also John Solomon reported that they were going to funnel $100 billion back to Joe Biden's presidency for candidacy for president using our tax money sent to Ukraine and We've never gotten an itemized list of all of the things that. That the money was spent on in Ukraine. But a whole lot of people in the upper echelons of power, the oligarchs over there, ended up with really, really cool boats and yachts.

[Pete Hegseth]

I appreciate, as much as anybody winning a war, but I sit in front of a committee that wants to talk about winning a war that's been going on for four years and talks about strategic defeat of a conflict that's been going on for four months. Months to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear bomb. I want, I would hope, for some perspective in this town of the historic nature of what President Trump is undertaking. Do you want radical Islamists?

[Relief Factor/1-800-Contacts Advertiser]

I don't want to hear this because I have limited time. So if you can't answer my question,

[Greg Gutfeld]

then I will move on to my. They would rather have the ayatollah, they would rather have terrorism, the terrorist proxies, all of this than Donald Trump actually finishing the ending 47 years of this nonsense and have it on Donald Trump's watch. That's what's so stinking lousy about the Democrat Party on this. And they've never said a good thing about our military. But I'm here to say you guys have done a great, great job. Let's just finish it now. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show.

[Rob Carson]

If I don't like it, if they don't behave, we'll go right back to dropping bombs right smack in the middle of their head.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Come on, do it. Finish the job. The great Stephen Miller, he's made it

[Stephen Miller]

clear that he will consider and pursue any and every option necessary to achieve America's objective of ending the Iranian nuclear threat once and for all.

[Greg Gutfeld]

How?

[Stephen Miller]

For 47 years, this regime operated with bloody impunity. They murdered Americans, they tortured dissidents, they engaged in proxy terrorism across the region, across the globe. And of course, they're responsible for the roadside bombs that left so many of our bravest mortally wounded and terribly disfigured. Everyone wanted to push this problem aside. And, of course, Obama, worst of all, funded, empowered, enabled, and led to the rise of the Iranian regime as a hegemony.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah, and the Democrat Party wants to cut off the funding and end the conflict before we can finish it and let Islam, radical Islam, rise again. Over there on the cusp of what is a Berlin Wall moment. What is a millennial peace for the Middle East, Something I haven't seen in my life. I mean, a lot of things have Changed in my life. I remember back in the 1970s, I was a little kid, my dad worked at a. It was a pipeline company. And wherever you live, no matter what city you live in, there's a hub for pipeline where they fill tanks with fuel that trucks go to and then take it to your convenience store, your gas station and deliver the fuel. And it's a hub. It's a national cooperative refinery association where he worked. And in the 1970s, OPEC had control of everything. And there were long lines and there was a gas shortage, according to Jimmy Carter, a gas shortage. My dad told me at that time, he said, rob, the tanks are full where we are. We're just told we can't fill the trucks. They won't let us do it. Created out of whole cloth. We never had a gas shortage at all. Created out of whole cloth. A shortage completely out of whole cloth. And that's when OPEC had our nuts in a vise. They don't anymore. We are energy independent over here and we are on the cusp of a millennial peace we've never imagined before. And the Democrat party, all they can do is shriek and cater all. It's really, really ridic. Here is a Scott Bessant. You never thought Scott Bessant would be a general in the army against Iran.

[Scott Bessant]

We have found the money man for the Ayatollah and we hope to soon be able to print his $100 million plus properties and show the addresses. Their currency has collapsed. It is at an all time low. The dollar, it's in free fall. And we think the inflation rate is upwards of 180%.

[Greg Gutfeld]

That's kind of cool, actually. And that, that's, that's really cool. I gotta be, I gotta tell you, very, very, very cool. I gotta, I'm very, very, very, very, very impressed with, with Scott Bessett. He said something that I thought was terrific. I want to share this apropos of, of, of anything, buddy. Ron, at this point we're talking about Iran, but I want you to think about also how we have really turned. How the had destroyed our economy on its, on its head. Barack Obama said there's no magic way we can't bring manufacturing mag to America. And then George Bush said there are jobs Americans won't do. He was so full of crap. He was so full of crap. There are so many jobs. There's no job Americans won't do. I have done those jobs. I have picked crops, I have harvested that I have shoveled every kind of animal feces you could Possibly. Imagine I've done jobs that nobody would want to do when I was growing up. You know what the number one job was where I grew up? In Neola, Iowa. If you could land it working at the slaughterhouse, you got a union job at the slaughterhouse. You were doing fine. You were doing fine. And that's the worst thing you could possibly imagine. What a shame to say such a stupid thing. But that said, this president not only was turning the Middle east upside down, he's turning the American economy upside down in a positive fashion. And for that, we need the most popular show element on this radio program. Much winning. It's lots of winning Lots of winning Lots of winning Lots of winning Lots of winning.

[Commercial Announcer]

Lots of winning.

[Greg Gutfeld]

It's oh so good. That is our winning jingle. And here's Scott Bessant to talk about what we have done to the economy and returning made to America back to America.

[Scott Bessant]

The truth is that for too long, America had been asleep. Yes, we mistook comfort for strength. We substituted efficiency for resilience and consumption as a measure of prosperity. Yes, we told ourselves that so long as goods were cheaper overseas, it did not matter whether factories went dark in Michigan, Ohio or Pennsylvania. Yes, we assumed that supply chains would always function smoothly and adversaries would always behave responsibly. And the invisible hand would correct vulnerabilities that too few in public life had the courage to confront. And while we reassured ourselves with those assumptions, risk accumulated all around us. Somewhere along the way, we lost sight of a foundational principle that previous generations understood instinctively. Economic security is national security. Yes, for a nation that cannot manufacture, mine, ship or refine its needs, gradually cedes its strength and sovereignty to others. That is a dangerous dependency for any country. It is an unacceptable one for the United States of America.

[Greg Gutfeld]

And there is pride in production, building things. And Americans have always felt that that's how we've gotten where we are. The strongest economy in the history of mankind. Don't let anybody try to convince you otherwise. And of course, our framers built a solid foundation. Hamilton helped us produce a sound, stable money, a principle embodied by the gold standard, of course, completely, I'll say bastardized. 1971. And then they started printing money left and right. Gold is still valuable. Do you have gold in your portfolio? Gold is unshakable. Thank you very much.

Jersey's voter rolls and some even voted.

[Greg Gutfeld]

But wait, there's more.

[News Reporter]

Department of Homeland security we've identified 250,000

[Greg Gutfeld]

non citizens registered to vote in just four states, plus 400,000 individuals that are

[Adam Gillette]

still registered to vote that are deceased.

[Greg Gutfeld]

That is kind of interesting. That is kind of interesting. Joining us to talk about this, we know so much more. Adam Gillette, President, Accuracy and Media Adam Gillette, real quick question. When you registered register to vote, what are you planning on doing Just I want to know, is it going fishing?

[Pete Hegseth]

What is it?

[Greg Gutfeld]

I'm not sure.

[Adam Gillette]

It's certainly not owning a firearm. One would presume you're going to vote.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Oh, shut up. No way. Hold on, hold on. Everybody break this right now. Just break, break it. Call everyone. Tell everyone the reason why you register to vote is because you're gonna vote. It's so stupid. They think we're so stupid. 250,000 people illegals registered to vote in just four states and they've been saying for a while now there's no voter fraud. Am I right? Am I wrong in this? Your Accuracy in Media. Haven't they been saying there's no voter fraud?

[Adam Gillette]

They always tell us there's no voter fraud. Now I'll be honest. Yeah, I worked at Project Veritas for a number of years. Hidden camera investigative journalism. We spent a lot of time at Veritas looking into voter fraud. I don't think there is the mass scale voter fraud that flips elections. I don't think we have that.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Okay.

[Adam Gillette]

A lot of legal fraud where they legalize ballot harvesting in states like California and bend the rules to their own advantage. But at the end of the day, if they want to make the conspiracy theories disappear, it's not too difficult to ask people to show an ID when they register to vote.

[Greg Gutfeld]

But I think what we're headed to here is a battle plan. And they had, had planned on registering all of these voters that they brought in during Joe Biden's presidency. And I think we've interrupted that. That's why Mark Wayne Mullen said we got 250,000 illegals registered to vote in four states. You extrapolate that nationwide, that's millions of people. So while you may think that of massive voter fraud, it sounds like they were well on their way to establishing a plan to upset the election apple cart in the favor of Democrats by using illegal votes.

[Adam Gillette]

You know, when dealing with the government, in any government agency, I think ineptitude is most frequently the most likely cause of action.

[Greg Gutfeld]

I'm not giving them, I'm not going to give them a bit of dude. I'm not going to give them the benefit of the doubt. Adam,

[Adam Gillette]

Whatever set up where as soon as you get your license, they register to you to vote. Now they should purge those people after the fact because they're not citizens. They're not eligible to vote even if they're able to get licenses in those states. But I don't trust the government agency to actually purge those people. I think and probably corruption Even more so than fraud.

[Greg Gutfeld]

They don't investigate voter fraud at all in California. So how are you. How are you going to know? How are you going to know? You know, you got this DSA. These, these young kids who have no jobs, $250,000 in debt, work at Starbucks making 30,000 doll. They want to take over the country, get rid of the Senate, get rid of private business and all of this. Last night, one of those candidates got beaten in Arizona. What do you think? As far as this is, this is one with small amounts of voters in places like New York, not taking away from the severity of the possibility of the situation. But what are your thoughts on the DSA and what's happening in the Democrat Party right now?

[Adam Gillette]

Well, every American should be terrified because voters don't believe that they, these socialists are actually socialists. You know, if you ask a voter, well, what are the DSA about? Oh, they just want to share money more equally. They just. People deserve their fair share. They want to make sure rich people pay their taxes. But then when you actually look at the things that are being said by these DSA people, these are communists. These are people who say that they are Westerners against Western civilization. These are people who view July 4th the way we view 9 11. These are the opposite of patriots. These are people with evil principles who want to destroy our nation, and we must take them at their word.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Now, you know, if you look the Democrat Party. Well, let's just use Graham Platner as an example here. The Democrat Party, they knew exactly what was going on with Graham Platner. If you say that he was not vetted, you are a fool. The thing that caused him to be replaced was not that final woman saying that he raped her. It was that he was losing. Because that Monday before he withdrew, he was, I believe, three points behind Susan Collins. So I believe they would elect the devil himself if they thought he could win. But he. She was behind. And that's why I feel like they. They needed to get him out of the race. What do you think?

[Adam Gillette]

Oh, gosh. The devil himself would probably have the backing of pretty much the entire DSA and nearly everybody in msnbc.

[Commercial Announcer]

Yes.

[Adam Gillette]

They wouldn't even need to have her primary. You're exactly right. I, like many people, think that that final leak that came out about Platinum was put out by his own party. Because you look at the timing of it. It was about before the deadline. Yeah. Of course they knew this. Of course they leaked this so that the Republicans didn't leak it one week before Election Day. These radicals will tolerate anything but a loser. You can do horrible things to women, say horrible things about soldiers and veterans, but if you're not going to win, they'll kick you to the curb.

[Greg Gutfeld]

You know, let me ask you this, Adam. Say, for instance, do you have a daughter, by the way?

[Adam Gillette]

I do not.

[Greg Gutfeld]

You do not. Okay. All right, then I'll just use a job interview. You're interviewing candidates for a job? I want to. I want you to stop when you would say, we're not going to proceed with this interview. Thanks for coming. Okay, so here you go.

[Commercial Announcer]

Ready?

[Greg Gutfeld]

Number one. Do you have any tattoos? Answer. Yes, I have a Totenkopf tattoo on my chest. It's the tattoo, the official tattoo of the Nazi SS who guarded the prisons in the Jewish concentration camps. Do you continue the interview and you say, thank you, Mr. Platner. We'll be in touch?

[Adam Gillette]

Yeah, I think you say, check, please, and you call security. This is the bizarre world we live in. I know. Who takes on anti Semitism on college campuses. They call me a Nazi.

[Greg Gutfeld]

I know.

[Adam Gillette]

Literally has a Nazi tattoo. And they wanted to call him Senator.

[Greg Gutfeld]

You know, let me ask you this. As far as American universities, they were the canary in the coal mine with regard to the rise of anti Semitism in this country. Started with the day after October 7, denial, which was bought and paid for by people outside of our country to erase the second Holocaust, which was October 7th. That was the canary of the call mine. Now we've got this dsa. What's happening on campuses right now, has that. Is it.

[Stephen Miller]

Is.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Is it been attacked? Is it. Is it being. I know it still exists, but is it we better off than we were a few years ago?

[Adam Gillette]

Yes and no. We're better off in that the violent encampments are gone. So the obvious visuals of racism and American anti Semitism is gone on. But what's much more dangerous and can have much more long term damage is the DEI they're embedding into every facet of education. Even in red states with DEI bans. Only three states, Kansas, North Carolina and Florida actually have a DEI band worth the paper it's printed on. So in the other 47, into every facet of education, they're pushing the notion that America is systemically racist.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yes.

[Adam Gillette]

Capitalism is inherently racist. And they start pushing these things as early as. As kindergarten.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah. You know, else. And you know where else they've been pushing it?

[Adam Gillette]

By the administrators.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Did you watch the woman in charge of the Smithsonian yesterday? It was the same pap. It was the Same Marxist communist pap that is at American universities being spewed by this Karen from hell on Capitol Hill who's in charge of our Smithsonian museums. I want to cover that on the other side of the break, if you can hold on. Adam Gillette, can you hold on?

[Adam Gillette]

Absolutely. Lovely.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Lovely. All right, so Adam Gillette, accuracy and media. Adam Gillette at X. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show. Hey, guys, it's Carson for Relief Factor.

[Rob Finnerty]

This is a woman who's in charge of the exhibits at all 21 Smithsonian museums, and she seems perfectly well adjusted to me. Let's meet her.

[Smithsonian Representative]

Before we begin, let us pause to acknowledge with gratitude the native peoples on whose land we gather today. These are the ancestral homelands of the Piscataway people, joined by the Nakotchtank and the Pau Monkey tribes and of course, their descendants. We acknowledge the native peoples more broadly of the Americas.

[Rob Finnerty]

We just. I would like to put my heartfelt thank you and gratitude out to the native peoples who once, 500 years ago occupied this land. We think we don't have any evidence of it, but we guesstimate that they did. And we are so thankful to be utilizing their territories. Is this woman out of her mind? I hate to tell you this, but it's not their land. I'm sorry, but it is a fact that human beings have been conquering other human beings for as long as there have been human beings. It's not unique to the white man, it's not unique to the pilgrims, but this woman is the perfect example of what the left have become in this country.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah, look at her. Rob Finnerty, last night. I mean, nobody does a monologue like Rob Finnerty. It is fantastic. And Adam Gillette, this woman in charge of the Smithsonians. I live here in Washington D.C. and this is the same, I mean, carbon copy woke nonsense. They've been feeding academia for years. Same crap, right?

[Adam Gillette]

We've taken the dumbest, most hateful people of our society and we've given them big fat paychecks from the taxpayers each and every day. And it drives me nuts because I love history, I love Smithsonian museums, but you go into any of them and it's literally as if we found the leader of the DSA and said, do your best to describe American history and American society.

[Greg Gutfeld]

She went so far, as I believe, to take American out of one of the museum's names. Essentially. This is. She is. She is the Democrat Party. She is the crazy cul de sac dwelling, intellectual, academic cat lady, Karen. That's exactly what this is. She's even an up talker. That's the worst thing. She's an up talker. She's in charge of the Smithsonian and she's an up talker. Can you believe that? This is, in fact, this woman has to be removed. She's gotta be removed from this. And then did you hear the caterwauling by the left? Because you wanna take out this obviously carbon copy Marxist propaganda. It's somehow erasing black history. Even though there is an African American history museum right down the block, if they really wanted to, they would blow it up.

[Adam Gillette]

The African American History Museum should focus on some of the incredibly wonderful African Americans who have been a part of our history. Instead, they focus on, quote, aspects and assumptions of whiteness and white culture, which not only claimed that politeness is a white culture trait, only white people can be polite, obviously, but it also said the respect for authority, planning for the future, the notion that hard work is the key to success, it says that those are aspects of white culture. Only white people can believe that hard work is the key to success. These are the most racist people in our society and we are the bad ones.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Yeah. You know, politeness is obviously a sign of white supremacy. Have you ever been to a cross burning? They are. They're very polite. They're like, hey, could you hand me that accelerant and that torch over there? I want to go burn this cross on the front of the lawn in the front of the Baptist church. You notice they're very polite. They're also very prompt.

[Adam Gillette]

The notion that the individual should have rights of white culture, well, that's in contrast with slavery. Slavery is a pretty strong argument for Individual rights. Because if you have individual rights for every human, you can't have slavery. These are things that are enshrined in our Constitution. Our founding documents are framing documents. And obviously this woman hates all.

[Greg Gutfeld]

It is remarkable, by the way. Can I just. Real quick. I just moved into the Newsmax studios here in Washington D.C. on 14th street, and I would like to acknowledge the landowners of this, before this building, the Neanderthals. A lot of the times you don't recognize the Neanderthals, but centuries ago, 10,000, maybe more years ago, they claimed this place to be home and hunted the woolly mammoth. So I want to acknowledge them real quick. Nobody ever notices the Neanderthals. Thank you very much. The Neanderthals were here before the Native Americans, for God's sake.

[Adam Gillette]

Well, I don't think it's polite to talk about Ted Kennedy in such a way.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Well, there are a lot of Neanderthals in the Democrat party. You think there would be some difference from considering there are so many Neanderthals in the Democrat party? Ridiculous. One more thing before we go, Adam Gillette. I got a comment about, you know, this sunny host and she always talks about privilege and white privilege and all this, and she used her privilege to try to get her son out of that. A, a trespassing charge. Here's the audio from her and the police. Hey, mom, how are you? This is Officer Gomez. Your son's fine. Officer Gomez, how are you?

[Relief Factor/1-800-Contacts Advertiser]

This is, this, this is a federal prosecutor.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Okay, fair enough.

[Relief Factor/1-800-Contacts Advertiser]

My son, he's a Harvard graduate. He's not a criminal.

[Greg Gutfeld]

He has no criminal record. No criminal history. Isn't that amazing? She whips out her. Her. I'm a federal prosecutor and my son went to her. Harvard really love to have the level

[Adam Gillette]

of privilege and hypocritical privilege this woman exhibits every day. Let's remember the same woman who said that she deserves reparations even though it came out that she's actually the descendant of slave owner. I know the victim and have privilege. She gets to have both sides of every debate. It's sickening.

[Greg Gutfeld]

It is, it is. And it's also just laughable. I like to say that conservative comedy is on the ascent because the left can't be taken seriously anymore. Adam Gillette, I'm sure you would have to agree. This is why this show's doing well. This is why Greg Gutfeld is. And honestly, you really, you have to take them seriously to defeat them. But at the same time, one of our best weapons is mockery. And they deserve every bit of that

[Adam Gillette]

ridicule is man's most potent political weapon. Their hero saw and I think they bring it upon themselves.

[Greg Gutfeld]

I know, I know.

[Adam Gillette]

They don't do hard hitting interviews, they don't come on this show, they don't often go on Fox.

[Greg Gutfeld]

No.

[Adam Gillette]

So they're never getting challenged. So when faced with the slightest bit of adversity, they crumble and embarrass themselves each time.

[Greg Gutfeld]

And then they have senatorial candidates who claim to be women having their periods out their butt. I mean, dear God in heaven, what the hell is going on in this world? Adam Gillette. Adam Gillette. Where can people find your glorious presence online?

[Adam Gillette]

Our website is aim.org, aim.org we're active on every single social media platform and Accuracy Media is releasing a new hidden camera investigation this afternoon. We're going to put frowns in the faces of some bad people.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Oh, I can't wait to check it out. Thanks for joining me today. I appreciate you, bro. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show. Led Zeppelin, come on. And Rob Finnerty from Newsmax Institution. One of your exhibits referenced Mickey Mouse as representing quote, vestiges of long standing traditions and blackface minstrelsy. Would you describe that as racist?

[Smithsonian Representative]

No. The historical trajectory of, of, of Mickey

[Greg Gutfeld]

Mouse tied directly Mickey Mouse is, is rooted in racism. Is that your testimony?

[Smithsonian Representative]

It's rooted in minstrelly.

[Rob Finnerty]

He's a mouse. He was first created when television was in black and white and when you own only have two colors with which to work. Yeah, you get a lot of black and white. And by the way, the 1928 Steamboat Willie version of Mickey Mouse that she was referencing actually has a white face. Yeah, it is right. There isn't a black face. There's nothing racist about it. This woman is in charge of all those little placards I know that are next to exhibits when you go to the Smithsonian. Yeah, that's a problem. This woman is a problem.

[Scott Bessant]

Yeah.

[Greg Gutfeld]

This is brand new from Jim Gossett everybody on the Rob Carson show.

[Rob Carson Show Producer/Interjector]

The leader of our gang who's racist asking me M I Z K E Y M O U S E Mickey Mouse, Mickey Mouse.

[Greg Gutfeld]

He's a louse. He's a louse.

[Rob Carson Show Producer/Interjector]

Smithsonian says he needs to go, go, go, go. They say that he's in black race and they rewrite history. M I C K E Y M o U S C3K Snow White. She is racist too. Why can't she be snow black? Every Disney character is under attack.

[Adam Gillette]

Bottle Dog dog of duck Would have

[Rob Carson Show Producer/Interjector]

no luck, no luck? If all his feathers were not lily white? White, white, white? That nut Athena hardy as black down as can be? Can her today send her away? She needs therapy.

[Greg Gutfeld]

Wow, Jim Goet.

[Rob Carson Show Producer/Interjector]

She needs therapy.

[Greg Gutfeld]

There you go. By the way, it's M I C K K E Y.

[Scott Bessant]

Why?

[Greg Gutfeld]

Because he's so racist. Mickey Mouse. You know, they've got a real problem with snow white supremacy over there at the Disney. It's so stupid. This is why conservative comedy is ascending. Because the left can't be taken seriously anymore. This awful, crazy cat lady Karen who is in charge of the Smithsonians needs to be removed. Like those Harvard Karens, the Ivy League Karen who were in charge that Elise Stefanik got to quit their jobs. The same thing has to happen to this woman. Boot her the hell out of the Smithsonian. My God. Let's take a break and come back. Last hour of the Rob Carson show is right ahead. Don't go anywhere. This is the right.
