Episode Overview

This episode dives into the fallout from U.S.-led operations in Iran, the political maneuvering of Britain's Keir Starmer, and widespread international reactions. Rob Carson blends sharp conservative commentary, irreverent humor, and robust guest insights—particularly from analyst Hillary Fordwich—to explore the shifting global power landscape, the UK’s political crisis, U.S. military dominance, and the implications for Western values at home and abroad.

Key Discussion Points

1. U.S. Strike on Iran: Global Ripples

• Historic Military Action:
  The U.S. has executed a decisive strike on Iran, allegedly eliminating the Ayatollah and much of the IRGC leadership. Carson and guest contributors frame this as an unprecedented reset of the Middle East’s status quo.

• Allies “Scrambling” for Position:
  World leaders, including those in the UK, Canada, and France, are depicted as racing to appear on “the right side of history” following America’s bold action.

• Celebrations and Cultural Shift:
  Scenes of Persian people celebrating with Jews abroad, especially in Paris and Canada, are spotlighted.

  "All the protests in places like Canada and France where the Persian people are out dancing with Jews going, hey, hey, we're free… having peaceful protests… and don't make a disaster out of the place." — Rob Carson [02:14]

• Mark Tardeo on Perspective:
  A U.S. veteran underscores the operation's historic nature:

  "For the first time, we are actually ending something that's been 47 years in the making." — Matt Tardeo [11:32]

• Mass U.S. Military Might:
  Guest Carl Higbie describes the overwhelming force used in the operation and how small a percentage of American military resources were necessary:

  "We decapitated a regime that has been building for 50 years… and we did it in a weekend. This ayatollah has been screaming about this kind of stuff for 40 years. And we killed him on day one of this campaign… We used 10% of [our air force] for this operation." — Carl Higbie [36:12]

---

2. Keir Starmer, Britain, and Europe: Waffling and Fallout

• Keir Starmer’s Shifting Position:
  Starmer, Labour leader (UK), is portrayed as "flip-flopping"—initially denying British involvement in U.S. strikes while condemning Iran’s regime.

  "The United Kingdom played no role in these strikes, but we have long been clear: the regime in Iran is utterly abhorrent." — Keir Starmer (clip) [21:01]

• Fordwich’s Assessment:
  Analyst Hillary Fordwich criticizes Starmer’s indecision and “wishy-washy” leadership, suggesting political opportunism and pandering to his base (primarily British Muslims in major cities), which she links to demographic changes in the UK:

  "If you disagree with one of his policies, it's rather like the wind. Just wait a few minutes and it'll change direction." — Hillary Fordwich [22:55]
  "Muslim people breed 8 to 1 and white Christian people in the US, in Western Europe are breeding 1.5. So that is the loss of society." — Hillary Fordwich [23:34]

• UK Political Upheaval:
  Recent by-elections reveal growing public dissatisfaction, with both Labour and Conservative parties losing out to minor parties like the Greens, who are targeting immigrant and Muslim communities.

  • Family/fraudulent voting and expanded mail-in ballots spark concerns about electoral integrity.
  • Reform Party (Nigel Farage) struggles with internal dilution from Conservative defectors.

  “I feel it's going to dilute the power of what Reform was… the criticism of Reform was, well, they don't have the experience. The question is, do you want an MP that was experienced at running the country into the ground?” — Hillary Fordwich [28:19]

• European Context and U.S. Relations:
  Starmer and Macron are described as “wimps” trying to align with U.S./world opinion only once the outcome seems secure, with the UK now “following the EU’s lead” rather than charting an independent course.

---

3. Domestic U.S. Politics and Liberal Hypocrisy

• Critique of "The View" and Left Media:
  Carson parodies commentary from ‘The View’ attributing the Iran raids to Trump’s alleged need to “distract” from legal/poll woes, dismissing the Epstein allegations against Trump, and mocking panelists' understanding of policy.

  • Example segment ridicules accusations of war without congressional approval, noting Obama's own extensive military actions.

• Highlight on U.S. Political Hypocrisy:
  The show lampoons Democrats for opposing Trump’s decisive action while ignoring Obama’s comparable precedent.

  “Just so utterly ridiculous… here’s Mark Wayne Mullen talking about all the bombs Obama dropped… 2016, when Barack Obama at the time dropped 27,600 bombs…” — Rob Carson [06:41]

---

4. Immigration, Crime, and Local Politics

• High-Profile Crimes by Illegal Aliens:
  Carson covers the murder of Stephanie Minter in Virginia, arguing that lax immigration enforcement enabled by state officials (notably Governor Abigail Scamberger) is responsible for such tragedies.

  “Abigail Scamberger is literally giving illegal aliens permission to commit more violent crimes… because she's an evil crazy cat lady communist.” — Rob Carson [15:50]

• Policy Consequences:
  He bemoans increased state taxes and left-wing policies driving business and residents out of Virginia, paralleling California and New York's exodus.

---

5. Women’s Rights and the Iranian Uprising

• Iranian Women’s Liberation:
  Both Carson and Fordwich are incredulous that Western feminists and left-leaning activists aren’t celebrating the prospective liberation of Iranian women from decades of oppression:

  "Why aren't all these left women, all these liberal women all across America out celebrating that these brave Iranian women... taking off their hijabs and throwing them in the fire...?" — Hillary Fordwich [31:33]

• On LGBTQ+ Silence:
  Fordwich decries the LGBTQ+ community’s lack of response to Iran’s persecution (nearly 6,000 killed), calling out “selective moral outrage.”

  “Why isn’t the gay community… coming out?” — Hillary Fordwich [32:34]

• Carson on Leftist Priorities:
  Blames political expedience for indifference:

  "They don't care about women. Politics is number one." — Rob Carson [32:51]

---

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• [02:07] Rob Carson mocks the UN’s effectiveness with:

  “U.N. sanctions… it starts with ‘limp’ and the second word starts with a ‘D’… What did that do the last 47 years? Precisely nothing.”

• [11:32] Matt Tardeo on the significance of the operation:

  “We are actually ending something that’s been 47 years in the making.”

• [21:05] Keir Starmer’s carefully-worded UK statement:

  “We have long been clear the regime in Iran is utterly abhorrent.”

• [22:55] Fordwich degrading Starmer:

  “If you disagree with one of his policies, it’s rather like the wind. Just wait a few minutes… [he] does his U-turns.”

• [36:12] Carl Higbie on U.S. military dominance:

  “We decapitated a regime… in a weekend… We used 10% of [America’s air force]…”

[Carl Higbie]

You are about to hear the most

[Rob Carson]

interesting, informative, thought provoking and funny show

[Carl Higbie]

in America on air and on the World Wide Web. This is the ROB Carson Show.

[Rob Carson]

This is the Rob Carson Show. Welcome to our number three at the bottom of the hour, Hillary Ford, which keynote speaker GB News and Sky News and Newsmax contributor. She's always awesome. She's all Great Britain. By the way, she's got some thoughts on Keir Starmer doing About Face and trying to get on the good side of history with regard to, you know, allowing us to use their bases to for operations for Iran. And here's the deal. It's because United States is kicking butt so badly. So, I mean, so greatly, I should say. And, and now the rest of the world is going, oh, we better get on the right side of history because the ayatollah is dead and 39 of his associates are dead. And then they met together to, you know, to choose a new ayatollah and they got blown up. They got blown up. Oh, my God, it was just so funny. Even old Mark Carney of Canada is suddenly on the good side with the United States.

[Carl Higbie]

Canada's position on the developments Middle east remains clear.

[Rob Carson]

Really?

[Carl Higbie]

The Islamic Republic of Iran is the principal source of instability and terror throughout the Middle East.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah.

[Carl Higbie]

It has one of the world's worst human rights records and must never be allowed to obtain or develop nuclear weapons.

[Rob Carson]

That kind of what Donald Trump's been saying.

[Carl Higbie]

Canada and our international partners have called consistently upon the Iranian regime to end its new.

[Rob Carson]

No, you haven't really. Actually, now we have program including at

[Carl Higbie]

the G7 summit, we had a big meeting on it. And with the United nations reimposition of

[Rob Carson]

sanctions this past September, well, they have a word for that, the United nations sanctions. It starts with limp and the second word starts with a D. So, yeah, sure, okay, whatever. United Nations. Wow. What did that do the last 47 years? Precisely nothing. But the rest of the world wants to get on board now because now they see victory as within hand and they see that the Persian people are being freed. And I don't know, all the protests in places like Canada and France where the Persian people are out dancing with Jews going, hey, hey, we're free. All right? And by the way, having peaceful protests where they appreciate the police and don't make a disaster out of the place and wreck things like the left does. So that's kind of cool. That's kind of cool. The view yesterday they were being. Dear God, just I'm going to play a little bit of this. Realize that you're going to lose a couple IQ points in the very beginning. But I think it's Elizabeth Hasselbeck, she redeems herself here and turns the discussion here is Anna Navarro talking about how Donald Trump, the reason why we're bombing Iran and killing the Ayatollah is to distract. He and Bibi Netanyahu are doing this to distract.

[Hillary Ford]

My God, I look at Donald Trump and I look at Netanyahu and I

[Rob Carson]

see two leaders who I think think politically they benefit from war. Netanyahu is facing criminal charges for corruption.

Yeah, that's it back home.

Donald Trump.

Oh, we better bomb Iran then.

Is facing very low numbers. And Epstein files. That will not. Are not and we will not.

Real quick here. Bill Clinton yesterday when he was testifying, well, the, the video and the audio released of when he was called to, to testify about the Epstein files and he completely exonerated Donald Trump. I hate this but because I don't believe I should inject anything, but I do. The first time you haven't injected anything. I want to leave the impression since there was no follow up question, he never, the president never, this is 20 something years ago, never said anything to me to make me think he was involved in anything improper with regard to, to have seen either. He just didn't. That's the truth. You know, as I said earlier, the only conversation I have with President Trump about this was in the early 2000s and I have no information from that he did anything wrong. There you go. So you're wrong again. Anna Navarro, my God, how did you get this job? Really? What, what did you have to do to become not only this but also a panelist on CNN when you know so very little go away?

I do think it's threefold. 1. We have 47 million Iranian women who now have a hope of freedom. That's a good thing.

Okay, we have Elizabeth Hasselbeck.

She has a brain of an disgusting, disgusting terrorist regime ended and the people finally.

Oh no. It was all about distracting from Epstein where there's no proof that Donald Trump did anything. It's all been, he's been completely exonerated. Okay, whatever. Here is Sarah Haynes jumping in because what was it? The, the, the sunshine. What the hell her name is anyway, one of the other idiots on the View, one of the other harpies from out on the view saying that Donald Trump didn't get any congressional approval.

This is an unconstitutional war. It's an illegal.

Sonny Hoston, my God, he didn't go to Congress.

He didn't go to the U.N. he didn't go before the American people. And that' at this point, 27% of Americans, only 27.

That's a bull. Bull bullfishing is what I said. That's a BS poll.

Percent of Americans approve of these actions. And I don't believe, I don't have any confidence that Donald Trump has any

sort of plan because you hate him.

And maybe he has concepts of a plan, but he does not have any.

Do you have a plan when you start off on some sort of jag? Because honestly, you never get to a finish line with your thoughts. You should have a plan when you open your damn just to mention the

other presidents that have gone in without congressional approval of Biden, Obama, Clinton, George H.W. reagan. So I would be more upset if Congress has ceded this power than mad that the president didn't check with Congress.

Just so utterly ridiculous. Just. I mean, here's Mark Wayne Mullen talking about all the bombs Obama dropped for him.

[Carl Higbie]

Saying anything in 2016, when Barack Obama at the time dropped 27,6000 bombs in

[Rob Carson]

Syria, that's a lot.

[Carl Higbie]

Pakistan, Libya, just to name what sort

[Rob Carson]

of national interest do we have there? What sort of threat did Libya pose us?

[Carl Higbie]

A few, and I definitely don't remember my colleague.

[Rob Carson]

What about Syria? What sort of threat did they pose?

[Carl Higbie]

He's in 2013 at all complaining about the president going. President Dan, Barack Obama going into Syria. And I would like to ask the question then, what threat did Syria have to the United States? What threat did Libya have to the United States during the Arab Spring to which these leaders were removed? Does anybody doubt on that side of the aisle, does anybody doubt that Iran, if or when they got a nuclear weapon, would deliver it to the United States? They have capability of doing it.

[Rob Carson]

Does anybody deny this is about elimination of the state of status quo? 47 years of nonsense that has been going on forever. And how long are you just going to sit around and have meetings about it and watch Americans die? Well, finally that, that day has come where that nonsense has finally ended. And I'm glad for it. I am bloody happy about it, to be quite honest. Oh, by the way, I got it. I would be remiss if I didn't play a little bit of the, the testimony with, with Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton here is. And I just one thought came to mind when I heard her testify. I don't think that Bill Clinton needs to be pardoned at this point because he's been married to her for like 50 years. I think he served his time to be quite honest.

Given that we have asked for a public hearing. If there are.

Here she is storming out because somebody took a picture of her photos that

are being released of the secretary.

I didn't know she showed up on film. Her reflection doesn't appear in a mirror.

She is testifying. Can you please explain how I'm done with this if you guys are doing that.

[Carl Higbie]

I am done.

[Rob Carson]

I am looking for my excuse to get the hell out of here.

Can hold me in contempt from now until the cows come home. This is just typical behavior.

[Carl Higbie]

We will go off the record.

[Rob Carson]

Oh, for heaven our heavens to Betsy.

Understand how that's permissible for the hearing was. It doesn't matter. We all are abiding by the same rules.

What difference does it make?

Yeah, well, I would like to take a break at this moment.

I'd like to have. I'm out of here. I mean here. Here she is fighting with Nancy Mace. This was just kind of fun. I'm playing this apropos enough and I just like Hillary Clinton getting a little what fur? That's the question.

I'm going to answer your question. This was what I spent my time doing. I'm a sur trying to look out for others. Well, trying to.

And I was the time when you did not want to confront Hillary Clinton like this because you might end up dead or something.

I was taking care of people who lost 3,000 lives. And now you're being pregnant today.

You've never said a thing about the

World Trade Center Epstein survivors. I'm a survivor myself. You have emails. You've denied that Jeffrey Epstein that you tried to get Jeffrey Epstein to give money to you. I did not. Howard Lutnick was. If you have an email with me asking Jeffrey Epstein for money from Howard Lutnick sending it.

Well, I don't have any emails. Because you destroyed them all. I don't remember that. You destroyed like 36,000 emails. Of course we don't have an email because you destroyed them all. You told everybody to bleach bit their, you know, their technology and destroy with ball peen hammers all the phones and everything. You destroyed all the emails. Of course we don't have emails.

Jeffrey Epstein and his people. I don't know about.

Show me an email that I didn't Destroy. Oh, my God. Yeah. Of course, we can't show you an email because you destroyed all of them. Anyway, here she is. Oh, man, this is good. This is her. And it's kind of funny because Bill Clinton's kind of known for this kind of stuff. And here is her being asked about what she thought about pictures of old Willie getting massages from girls and being in a hot tub.

When you saw photos of your husband in a hot tub, laying on a beach and getting massaged by other women and you knew that Jeffrey Epstein was involved in some of these trips and these things, did it concern you at all?

No, I've seen him before, actually. I was there.

I'm here not to offer my opinions.

I was on the beach.

Or to answer specific questions to the best of my ability. When you saw your husband in these photos with a young woman being massaged, what went through your mind?

Oh, I've seen this before. Hell, it happened in the White House.

I am not going to speculate. You didn't have any feelings.

Why is the Oval Office door locked again? Gosh darn it.

About young women massaging your husband. I am not going to offer opinions or speculation because it's really not a big surprise about anything that I have no context for and was not there.

That's just fun. So there you go. I wanted to play a little bit of that. Did we learn anything yesterday? No, not particularly, but it was kind of fun to watch. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show. Further.

[Matt Tardeo]

Yeah, it's going way better, way, way better than, than anybody could ever even possibly understand. Just got done reading a message right before I came on that said that there was over a thousand sorties within the first 24 hours. And it's going to take way, way longer than people realize to. To actually understand the effects that we're having on the battleground over inside of Iran right now. Their state media has been knocked out. All of the leadership, all of the key leadership of the IRGC has been taken out. The Ayatollah, something that everybody thought would just never happen. We ended up killing the Ayatollah. And I'll tell you, as a. As a veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom, I couldn't be more proud to see that man get killed along with his entire regime. Because you're talking one out of every five US Troops that ended up getting wounded or kill inside the Middle east was the direct result of them. That I am so happy to be on a program that properly painted this correct, stating that for the first time, we are actually ending something that's been 47 years in the making.

[Rob Carson]

There you go. That is Matt Tardeo on Grant Stinsfield shows Grant is a friend of mine. And that puts it in perspective. Somebody who saw who, who served in the Middle east and, and was subjected to some of the violence caused by radical Islam and of course paid for by the, the ayatollah in the country of Iran. And he is, of course, control. So, yeah, well, he's dead. Yay. He's dead. Woohoo. Yippee skippy. It's awesome and we should be celebrating it. But the Democrat Party hates Donald Trump so much that they can't. They would rather have a murderous monster in charge who's resulted in the death of hundreds of thousands around the world and thousands of Americans. They would rather have him still be in power than Donald Trump getting any credit for changing the world. So there is that. You know the story of Irina Zarudska. Her mother was at the State of the Union. Donald Trump asked her to stand. She was murdered in Charlotte on a, on a train by an illegal alien. Well, the same thing happened in Northern Virginia, where I live. Stephanie Minter was stabbed to death at a bus stop by, allegedly by Abdul Jho Low who's in our country illegally. She was 41 years old. This is a local report on ABC 7 about the story.

[Carl Higbie]

A Virginia woman was killed at a Fairfax county bus stop. We're learning the man charged in her murder is in the US Illegally. His name is Abdul Jalo from Sierra Leone, according to the Department of Homeland Security. I'm at the Fairfax County Courthouse where I discovered this man has a lengthy criminal history. More than 40 charges in the past ranging from stabbings to malicious wounding and much more. And almost every case. Fairfax County Commonwealth Attorney Steve Descano dropped charges against this man, only secured one conviction. In the past, he served very little time. He was let back out into the community where then he allegedly stabbed this woman of Fredericksburg. Now, this woman's family is heartbroken. According to an obituary, her family describes this woman, Stephanie Mentor, as a jolly, happy individual, a light and dark places. And tonight, the US Department of Homeland Security is calling on Virginia Governor Abigail Spamberger and Fairfax county officials to hand this man over to ICE so they can deport him.

[Rob Carson]

And of course, Abigail Scamberger is fighting because she is asking Virginia officials to not cooperate with ice. She is making Virginia into a sanctuary state. She's a bat guano crazy liar, by the way. Lied about her intentions to get elected, lied about being a moderate and has ushered in a new era of green energy nonsense, of open border nonsense and she should be recalled. I'm not kidding. And I would suggest that you Republicans in the state get off your rear ends about the possibility of recalling this wretched woman because so many people felt either completely abandoned and ignored and lied to, lied to by her. Abigail Scamberger's office has released a statement saying they still will not honor an ICE detainer against the illegal alien with 30 prior arrests who murdered 41 year old Stephanie Mentor in Fairfax last week. Instead, they demand that ICE receive a signed judicial warrant before they'll turn him over to the Feds. The problem with that is ICE can only get a judicial warrant if an illegal alien is being invested or commits a federal crime. This means that Abigail Scamberger is literally giving illegal aliens permission to commit more violent crimes against Virginians before she will work with the Feds to deport them because she's an evil crazy cat lady communist. Here is another story about the Mentor killing in Northern Virginia, first responders arriving

at a Richmond highway bus stop finding the victim of a stabbing.

A female, unresponsive.

There seems to be a cut.

She's not breathing. Unresponsive. There's blood all over her.

41 year old Stephanie Minter died from her injuries. Her family just posting this obituary describing her as quote, a beam of light in dark places. Charged in her killing 32 year old Abdul Jalo, already well known to police and prosecutors.

Court record why in the hell was he still in the country?

So the unhoused man had a reputation for unhoused.

He's not homeless, he's unhoused.

Violence and alleged rape in 2018, then a series of four alleged stabbings and more recently before the alleged murder, two alleged assaults. But only once was Jalo convicted and sent to prison. In February of 2023 he stabbed a 73 year old man so forcefully the blade broke off the knife. He pleaded guilty to malicious wounding, was sentenced to serve two years with five years of time suspended. Then Monday night another stabbing. Police say it's at least the fifth tied to Jalo and this time a woman was dead. Virginia's former Attorney General on social media blasting what he called catch and release policy.

Yeah, this is liberalism. This is the Democrat party and it's a damned shame that this sort of nonsense still exists in states like Virginia and New Jersey with their bat guano, crazy white liberal cat lady governor up there. Unbelievable. Honestly. Un. Un. Unbelievable. And, and I would recommend we get started on a recall petition against this woman because she lied about who she was to get elected. The Democrat party in the state of Virginia lied about their platform, got her in office and unveiled all of this, this nonsense in a state that is known for liberty, a state that had a 2.3 billion dollar surplus and yet they just have added about 70 new taxes on people, insane taxes on the delivery of items from Amazon, on getting your dog groomed, on a host of things that are nonsensical. Green energy idiocy that has been proven to be wrong even. And the state of Virginia is a pinprick on the planet. So having an electric leaf blower versus a gas leap lower means nothing. It's just a matter of control and taxation. That's the problem. And Virginia is going to fall unless we do something about it. And people are going to start leaving the state of Virginia like they are leaving so many other Democrat enclaves like California, like New York City. Boeing has always already left Virginia. They're going to St. Louis. And you can expect a flood of people to leave this state, including yours truly. I have no ties to this state. I just moved here six months ago expecting the state that I had seen for so many years from across the river in Maryland, enviously going, I wish I would have moved there in the first place. Now not so much. Now not so much. West Virginia is paying people to move there. Might consider doing that. Harper's Ferry is very lovely this time of year. It's a little ways away from here, but it's not that far away. We'll see. We'll see what happens. All right, so Hillary Fordwich joins us next to talk about the the Flip flop, the Turnaround by Soy boy Keir Starmer with regard to allowing our planes to take off from from Great Britain's air bases as we kick Iran's butt. That's on the other side of the break. Don't go anywhere. Not to scare you, but AI has completely changed the cybersecurity game.

[Hillary Ford]

The United Kingdom played no role in

[Rob Carson]

these strikes, but we have long been clear the regime in Iran is utterly abhorrent.

[Hillary Ford]

They have murdered thousands of their own people, brutally crushed dissent.

[Rob Carson]

That is Keir Starmer over the weekend saying, making clear that we had nothing to do with the raid of Iran and the bombing of Iran, but we've always hated Iran. Straddling the fence like a good. I don't even know what to call him, to be quite honest. I use the word soy boy. I don't know if soy boy fits in Great Britain. But. Joining us to discuss this is Hillary Ford, which keynote speaker. Newsmax Contributor GB News Contributor LA Sky News Contributor, Friend of the show. Hello, Hillary, how are you on this glorious Tuesday?

[Hillary Ford]

Well, good afternoon. I have to say, Rob, thank you for having me back again. I was always very proud to be British born. I'm an American by choice, but I'm very proud of both. I can't remember a time where I felt, actually, it's very tough to say, ashamed of the nation where I was born and when Donald Trump, President Trump said that he's no Winston Churchill. I have to say that I feel that Margaret Thatcher would be rolling around in her grave right now.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah. Now, I had heard that Starmer has kind of done a pivot in some, I guess British planes have intercepted some Iranian sorties of some type. But it sounds like he and Macron, who are wimps, I would just say wimps, I'll put it kindly, have decided to be on the right side of history, at least to some degree. Now that it becomes more apparent that we've done substantial damage and, and are well on the way to hopefully our objective of, of changing Iran and freeing its people. What are your thoughts?

[Hillary Ford]

Well, I think you're right. I will always say about Sir Keir Starmer that if you disagree with one of his policies, it's rather like the wind. Just wait a few minutes and it'll change direction. He. No, he does his U turns. He's done numerous U turns. I think they counted them up in the, in England, I think it's something like 22U turns, like direct U turns on policies which have drastically affected and basically denigrated the uk. I find it rather fascinating watching him because he's immensely articulate while being extremely wishy washy, feeble and feckless at the same time. But what it all comes down to is like all politicians really pandering to his base. And unfortunately his base now is very much in the uk, a Muslim base where you have every major UK city now has a Muslim mayor. And one of the things that Winston Churchill said about democracy is it's not a good form of government, it's just better than all the other ones tried. The problem is if you become overwhelmed with people of not your persuasion, with your beliefs and your background and your religion etc. Then they're just going to vote. And look what's happening in Texas. I mean there are more being built everywhere. I assume they go to Texas because it's like a climate like the Middle east, dry and sandy and desert like. But we're seeing this in certain parts of America at the same time. And as I've always said, it's just a numbers game. It's mathematics because Muslim people breed 8 to 1 and white Christian people in the US, in Western Europe are breeding 1.5. So that is, that is the loss of society.

[Rob Carson]

So a few things have happened. Obviously this, this Iran strike has taken Prince Andrew off the front pages, taken off the Royal Family off the front pages and all of that, but all of that is still an undercurrent. And, and we were talking just a week ago about Starmer's, you know, his leadership on the brink and the possibility of, of, you know, change of the guard over there. What, what is going on to that

[Hillary Ford]

I would say that there is such dissatisfaction with the Keir Starmer. There is a recent, what is, you know, what's called a by election in the UK and it's called Gorton, it's in the north. And what happened was they rejected the Conservative Party, they rejected the Labour Party. So in the uk, the Labour Party is closely analogous really with Democrats, the Democratic Party, they're the left leaning party more for unions and more, you know, very woke up. And then the Conservative Party is more like our Republican Party but they rejected both parties and went with a Green Party that actually was putting out advertisements in Urdu and you know, the language of Pakistan and people with Pakistani passports that aren't English born, British born with a British passport, were voting and they were doing what is called family voting, where the husband would take in his wife because she wasn't allowed to be alone or make any decisions for herself. Taking in with his Pakistani passport, his Pakistani wife. And they were both, both voting. So it was two. And he was telling her what. Telling her what to vote. And this was one of the things that was happening as well as mail in voting in the UK was always restricted or intended, I should say, and really basically restricted to handicapped and elderly people. But they had extensive mail in voting. So just like we've had these mail, these voter issues in the United States, Nigel Farage has been saying that he wants the, you know, the vote investigated, of course.

[Rob Carson]

So this is basically what they did in 2020 here. This is where they've done, this is what they've done in other, in other places. So does, does this put the kibosh on, on Farage becoming the prime minister?

[Hillary Ford]

I don't know that it, it does, but it certainly is shaky because most unfortunately now what's happened, it's a blessing and a curse. What's happened with the Reform Party, which is what Nigel Farage heads up, is that, you know, I actually thought it was a good thing that a lot of Conservative MPs, meaning members of Parliament, which would be analogous for our audience, like a congressman or a senator, where they were leaving, defecting from the Conservative Party, which would be like our Republican Party and going to the Reform Party. But that has left a lot of these candidates that were standing up for reform disaffected. Why? They were local people who were totally disenchanted with the Conservative Party, totally disenchanted with the Labour Party, and they were giving up their daily jobs and, or working very, very hard, funding their own campaigns, doing everything standing, being elected. And then when a Conservative member of Parliament would say, you know, okay, right, I'm going to defect, these local people that had given up all their time and their personal money to stand and being elected were sort of bumped and the Reform Party is absorbing all these Conservative MPs. So now you're finding, and it's very sad, I think, to see this basically all this right leaning vote disaffected. Why? Because they feel that now if all the Conservatives that failed as the Conservative Party are coming over to reform, are we just the party of the failed party? So I think it's going to probably, I'm not saying that probably, I feel like it's going to dilute the power of what reform was. And on the other hand, the criticism of reform was, well, they don't have the experience. And you do have experienced MPs. The question is, do you want an MP that was experienced at running the country into the ground? That's the question.

[Rob Carson]

Wow. Unbelievable. And these are. These are treacherous times. Do you suppose that the reason why Starmer is on board with the epic fury is because he wants to try to not only, I guess, wag the dog to some degree without being a part of the dog, and to gain favor with, with the international community and those who despise him?

[Hillary Ford]

Well, you've actually nailed it because he's trying to walk this very difficult fine line, not alienating the Muslim base, which is now, you know, supports his party, the Labour Party. He doesn't want to alienate his base. He doesn't want them to be disaffected. And yet he's got to stay, keep everybody else on sides. And he's trying to. I think he's navigating this line. I'll tell you who is coming out really in great support of President Trump and us and our endeavors and what we're trying to do in Iran is Mark Rutter, who is the former Prime Minister of the Netherlands, who's now the head of the eu. I was in Holland. I lived there for three years. I headed global Business development, the KPMG worldwide. And Marco Route is very smart, very talented, basically an intellect, too. He ran a coalition government. And unfortunately, a lot of these European countries now with their Muslim base, with their cultural diaspora, I guess you would call it, he's learned how to navigate that. And he has remained, remained firmly, though, on sides with the US And I think that's what the KR Starmer is trying to do, is follow that. Now, basically, the UK is in the position of following the EU's lead, which is rather amazing. And last but not least, Rob, I think what we're seeing, all of us here in America, we're seeing a change in the world order. Who would have ever predicted that you would see Iranian people, including all the women that took off the hijabs and had the courage to burn them in the fire, partying at the same time with Israelis, partying on a night celebrating, you know, the.

[Rob Carson]

I want to hold. I want to hold this Hillary. I want to hold on to the break here because I want to talk a little bit more about the female aspect of this and how gigantic is and how the left is ignoring it. Let's take a break and come back a little bit more from Hillary. Forage on the Other side of the break. This is the Rob Carson Show. We all want to say thank you to President Trump. This is the only person who support

us in the last 50 years.

Every single people in Iran knew that the only way that this regime is

going to go away is that to

[Hillary Ford]

attack them for the first time in their lives.

[Carl Higbie]

Many here are expressing optimism for a new life in Iran.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, particularly women who have been slaves, who've been absolute slaves for the last 47 years. A couple of generations of women raised and had to survive absolute subjugation. And it's amazing the left can't celebrate this, isn't it, Hilary Fordwich?

[Hillary Ford]

Yes, you're absolutely right. Because, Rob, I always think it's one thing if somebody has different beliefs and values than you or me. If you have different beliefs, okay, stick to your values. What I can't stand, and I actually have no tolerance for, is hypocrisy. If you're for women's rights and you're somebody who's always stood up for women's rights and you're a feminist, why aren't you celebrating? Why aren't all these left women, all these liberal women all across America out celebrating that these brave Iranian women, as I mentioned before, taking off their hijabs and throwing them in the fire and actually wearing makeup, knowing that previously their faces had been slashed by Khomeini's guard. And why aren't they supporting these Iranian women? And by the way, the regime had killed over, over. I think it's 5,000, 793 gays. Why isn't the gay community coming out and the LGBTQ TPS community coming out?

[Rob Carson]

Because Hillary, Hillary, if they didn't care about men becoming women and destroying the lives of little girls, why the hell would they care about women? You know, in Iran, it's the same pathos. It's the same nonsense. You know, listen, listen, but let me tell you, listen this. When you talk about transgenderizing girls, you're telling girls that they would be better off as boys, and you're doing the same crap they do to girls in Sub Saharan Africa. You're doing female circumcision and breast binding. It's the same damned thing. They don't care about women. They don't care about women. Politics is number one.

[Hillary Ford]

That's exactly right. And I find that hypocrisy really pitiful and also the selective moral outrage. But, but what I was going to mention is, in terms of what we're seeing in our lifetime, Rob, I believe is a global shift who would have ever predicted that Arab nations would actually be supportive of Israel, Iran? They must be out of their minds to be bombing Dubai and Dubai airport and Dubai hotels. They actually bombed the Fairmont Hotel in Dubai, which actually they said something about, well, this is the Iranians. Well, there's government, U.S. government personnel that, by the way, news, news item, news flash. It's way beyond the budget of anything the government pays for. So they don't even know what they're talking about. I think it's hypocrisy. And they obviously are just randomly lashing out.

[Rob Carson]

We are looking at, of course, because they are realizing they're doing a death spiral into hell, like the Democrat Party is doing, by the way, in this country. And we are, we're seeing a millennial shift in this country. Unfortunately, Great Britain is still kind of hosed. Fortunately, Donald Trump is cutting the head off of Iran. It's going to shift everything. It's going to change everything in the Middle East. We're going to see peace in the Middle East. We're going to see China, their ambitions for taking Taiwan going to fade. Russia is going to become less of a superpower. We're seeing a millennial shift. We're seeing, and I said this, if Donald Trump was going to be the president, freedom and prosperity spreading around the world. I hope it's not too late for Great Britain. I hope it's not too late for France. Thankfully, Italy, Poland, Turkey have already pulled their asses out of the fire. In closing, what do you think is going to save Great Britain?

[Hillary Ford]

Well, I hope there's something. I thought it was going to be Nigel Farage. I just hope it is Nigel Farage. But I'm seeing this, as I mentioned, this dilution on the right with the Reform Party at the moment and didn't do well, as I mentioned in that recent byelection. I hope it anybody actually, it's Nigel Farage or it's a party that, like President Trump, will stand up for the cultural values that have been historically the British heritage. And that could be people of color. It can be people of a different nation and a different religion if they choose to assimilate, which they haven't.

[Rob Carson]

Well, I appreciate you being on the show today, Hillary, as always. It's excellent to have you here. And of course, you're on on twitter @h Fordwich Hillary, by the way, H. Ford, which Hillary I'll repost on social media. Where else can people find you?

[Hillary Ford]

Oh, yes, and I have a YouTube channel and I'm on LinkedIn and Rob, thank you so much for having me. Really smashing of you. Thank you.

[Rob Carson]

All right, let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show. All right, so Ken, my producer, Redneck MacGyver, said I got to play Carl Higby again because what he said was so brilliant. For all you naysayers who 27% of people support the Iranian mix, Bullcrap. It's a lot higher than that. We're proud of our military. We love it when it kicks ass. Here is Carl Higbee putting the perspective on Newsmax. Thank you.

[Carl Higbie]

And then we decapitated a regime that has been building for 50 years to fight the United States. And we did it in a weekend. This ayatollah has been screaming about this kind of stuff for 40 years. And we killed him on day one of this campaign. Say hi to Allah for me, dude. Remember when I told you last week that the three biggest air forces in the world, the US Air Force, followed by the US army, then the US Navy. Russia claims a bunch of planes, but they don't actually fly. So here's the deal. To anyone who wants to pick a fight with the U.S. the United States of America has 13,043 active planes in our arsenal. We use 10% of them for this operation. Only four of our 20 B2 Freedom Doritos, by the way, we had another 40% of our Air Force on standby.

[Rob Carson]

He calls the B2 a Freedom Burrito because it looks like. Or Dorito because it looks like a Dorito there.

[Carl Higbie]

Just for comparison, Iran had had 551. Most of them identify as was were. We used two carrier battle groups for this operation. We have 11. We use less than 10% of our Navy to do this. We didn't even need my people. Not one SEAL or Delta or Ranger or other SOCOM units were used on the ground for this. Not One of nearly 500,000 army soldiers hit the ground. Not one of nearly 200,000 Marines that believe me, right now they are frothing at the mouth to get into this fight. Not one of the National Guard or reserve troops had to be called that already wasn't on duty. We didn't even need to call the Coast Guard, which is good, by the way, thank God, because Democrats currently have DHS shut down on funding.

[Rob Carson]

So that's true.

[Carl Higbie]

They don't have any money to do this. Not one of the 1.3 million troops that we have set foot in Iran for this op. And yet in 48 hours, we did the equivalent of taking out their entire cabinet. Their Joint Chiefs.

[Rob Carson]

Gone.

[Carl Higbie]

Their Pentagon dust, Their white house gone. 80% of their air Force sinking and disabling a quarter of their Navy. Shutting off their Internet blocking satellite transmission. Then just for fun, we hacked their national TV networks just to play Trump's speech about liberating Iran.

[Rob Carson]
