A (3:46)

It is. There's no doubt about it.

B (3:49)

The left is reacting the way they're reacting, not because they're Maduro sympathizers, but because they are Maduro. This is a hero to them. They are communists. And that is why you see Mandani and Bernie Sanders and everybody else supporting them. And that is why they're not at all troubled by the fact that Nicolas Maduro and Delsey Rodriguez, who is the vice president right now, we can talk a little bit about that in a second. Both of them have executed and imprisoned and tortured all of their political opponents.

A (4:21)

Yeah. Well, does it surprise you that the left loves them? It really is ridiculous. This is pretty interesting from the Free Press. There's a woman named Franny Block, and like Azra Nomani did the other day, she's put two and two together and all of these protests all. And I'm going to play this in entirety, it's about two minutes long. And I'll chime in occasionally. All of these protests going back to Even Black lives matter, even January 6th, I'll venture to say January 6th, because I said Antifa was in that crowd on January 7th. Because they were. Because Trump supporters don't show up in black riot helmets, flak helmets and, and bring grappling hooks. Okay? They never do. And by the way, Trump crowds are never violent. You see, that's why I said it was bull crap then, and I still say it's bull crap now. But all of these, all these protests that have erupted like 12 hours after Maduro was arrested, you got protests from Grand Rapids to Seattle to New York City protesting Maduro's arrest. No one in their right mind would protest Maduro's address or arrest, unless they're a Communist. Listen to Frannie Block.

B (5:33)

One of the main groups behind these protests is the same organization that Helped fuel the pro Palestine protests across campuses and cities.

A (5:41)

Aha. Remember what I said? The day after October 7, they started protesting against Israel. It was not evergreen. America is not anti Semitic.

B (5:50)

For the last few years, it's called the People's Forum, a far left activist group based in New York City. And it's funded almost, almost entirely by one man, Neville Roy Singham, a multi millionaire tech entrepreneur turned Marxist. Singham is married to Jody Evans, the founder of CodePen, the group best known for storming congressional hearings, smearing fake blood on their hands, and harassing lawmakers in the halls of Congress. Now, let's zoom out. The People's Forum is essentially a headquarters for professional activists. They describe themselves as, quote, a movement incubator for working class and marginalized communities. From their sleek midtown Manhattan building, they host classes like Anti Fascist, Theater of the Oppressed, Collage, Making for Liberation, and a six week course called A Summer School for Socialism.

A (6:36)

They were the ones who went after the Tesla dealerships and, and called Elon Musk a Nazi.

B (6:41)

Last year, I began investigating the People's Forum after noticing something striking. They were central drivers of anti Israel protests immediately after October 7th.

A (6:50)

There you go. Not organic. I told you that America is not anti semitic.

B (6:54)

One rally they co hosted took place on October 8, just one day after the massacre, before Israel had even finished counting its dead. The People's Forum is also behind protests against National Guard deployments in US Cities. Anti ice.

A (7:07)

And now they're behind the anti ice. And by the way, an ICE agent was shot today in Minneapolis, Venezuela.

B (7:13)

Back then, I followed the money and public disclosure forms and financial records show that Singham and Evans were funneled more than $20.4 million to the People's Forum between 2017 and 2022, accounting for nearly all of the group's funding. And they did this using a web of shell organizations and donor advised funds. And Singham isn't just sympathetic to the Chinese Communist Party. Evidence suggests he's actively funded media outlets that praise Chinese leader Xi Jinping while ignoring or denying China's human rights abuses. So when you see these protests pop up overnight, now, you know they're not authentic or grassroots. They're funded, they're organized. And they're part of a much bigger ideological machine pushing socialism and an anti American agenda.

A (7:57)

And Donald Trump's going after the bastards. They've been running roughshod over America. They have left behind bodies and billions of dollars of damage. They tried to burn down the St. John's Church. They burnt down our cities across America. And they're going to be shut down. They're going to be shut down. And if you don't believe me, I want you to listen to these Marxists on a podcast right after Donald Trump got Maduro. Listen to this. Talking about the, the protest that sprung up the next day.

C (8:29)

Well, Eugene, a few of us stayed.

A (8:31)

Up all night last night once we heard the news, conferring with each other, conferring with other organizers. And by 3:30, 4:00 clock this morning, we put out the call for demonstrations to happen today. Yeah, Saturday, January 3rd, less than 12 hours after the bombing and kidnapping of the president of Venezuela. You have tens of thousands of people. I think, I think we're in all of them paid for. A watershed moment. Epic moment. No you're not. It's bought and paid for. It doesn't mean B word for Richard. We should just be raging. We should be angry. We should be in the streets. It's a class war. It's a global war. It's an anti imperial. No it's not. Not one little bit. You're absolutely high. This is the leftism that we've been talking about. This is the leftism that has taken over New York and Seattle and both those cities are going to go to absolute hell. They're going to go to hell. And as far as I'm concerned, yon, yon Yang yon, this movement, this communism, this Marxism is falling around. The world is failing in Central and South America as more and more countries are turning to the right. It's happening now with Iran falling. It's happening in Cuba. Cuba's going to fall and there's nothing they can do about it. Even when idiots like Jasmine Crockett go on to the View to talk about it. By the way, here is Jasmine Crockett and I just got to warn you real quick here. Every minute you listen to her now, every second you listen to her, you lose an IQ point. So I know many of you in the audience, you know if you're right minded, you'll be fine. But if you are a Democrat in good standing or a liberal, you might want to just kind of listen a little because you're going to become so stupid that your breathing could actually stop.

B (10:14)

The press conference that he held, he didn't talk about democracy. Now I know there are a lot of people that are talking about this is good for the Venezuelan people. It is because Maduro was a bad guy. But that's not why he did it. He has not cared about Venezuelans at all. Let me Be clear about that part. And here's the receipt. The Enemy Aliens act, which most of us had never heard of because it's from the 1700s. He invoked it specifically because of Venezuelans. He said we are being.

A (10:41)

Yeah, because we were having all the Venezuelan prisons emptied to our country in the trend Nicaragua gang members coming in and all the people being raped and.

B (10:49)

Murdered and trafficked, attacked and invaded by Venezuelans. That was number one.

A (10:53)

Yeah, it's absolutely true. It happened.

B (10:54)

Then the next thing that, you know, Seacot, that's where he was sending Venezuelans. Remember the 60 Minute episode that they did not want to air about how they were treating them, mistreating them at Sea Cot. That's where he sent Venezuelans.

A (11:09)

Yeah. All right, now I know that you're okay now, but again, if you are a Democrat or a Marxist, again, be careful because you're going to lose enough IQ points, you might end up dying. Here she is saying something supremely stupid. I mean, like almost as dumb as what Zoran Mandami said about the warmth of collectivism versus rugged individualism the other day, which was, I mean, an extraordinary moment in ignorance and stupidity. Listen to what she says. She's doing moral relativism in the worst possible way.

B (11:41)

Guess what? There are a lot of people that don't like our leader. And regardless, somebody coming into the United States and grabbing our leader in the middle of the night and killing people in this country, I'm sure everybody would be outraged at them doing it that way.

A (12:04)

Okay, so she's saying that Donald Trump going in to get Nicolas Maduro, who was an international criminal who has caused the death of possibly tens of thousands, maybe hundred. No, certainly hundreds of thousands of people with drugs being sent out of his country, shutting down free speeches in this country, imprisoning people, murdering people, causing 8 million people to leave the country, causing inflation. 130%. 130. 30, yeah, 130. No, 130,000% higher inflation. The standard of living to plummet into the absolute toilet. Going in there and removing that SOB saying that, well, how would they feel if they came into the United States and grabbed Donald Trump? I mean, honestly, I apologize for the impact that had on your intelligence. We're gonna take a break now. Don't worry, it's gonna bounce back. Well, I'm not gonna play any more Jasmine Crockett. This show just give you a warning. We're not gonna listen to her anymore. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show. The media and our friends in The Democrat Party kept saying we needed new legislation, we must have legislation border. But it turned out that all we really needed was a new president. And what a president we have. Every day is historic. I told you this. It was going to be. I've been talking about it all last year. I said that when Donald Trump gets elected and I knew it was going to happen. I don't know the day after the election in 2020 because I knew that it had been rigged. It's very obvious. Donald Trump on Truth Social is beginning to put up a lot of information about the, the absolute chicanery of the election and how the left has been able to tell us that in the, in the face of all the evidence that we were deluded and we were conspiracy theorists. You don't know what kind of hell that has been for many of us. And guess what? You're getting your due diligence. You're going to get it. You're going to get it. You're going to, you're going to take it like maduro. There you go. Like maduro. Oh, and then there's this bad news for you guys who were convinced that Donald Trump would have collapsed the economy because the world was, was tariffing our goods at such high rates. And he decided to level the playing field.

B (14:18)

Another strong day for stark stocks to start 2026. The Dow with another record high, up nearly 500 points. The S&P 500 also closing at a new record high. Looks like 6944 as we settle out here. The NASDAQ up 2/3 of 1%. Another good day for the Russell 2000 as well. That was up more than 1%. As the Dow takes over leadership from tech, we are seeing materials industrials. Those are among today's sector leaders. The Dow transports which fall in the industrials group, those were also hitting an all time high today. Materials continue to be driven higher by rising prices for metals. Several silver back to $80 an ounce. More on that coming up.

A (14:57)

I know. Is that crazy? Because $20 trillion has already been promised as far as investment in the United States of America. That's not happening in China. That's not happening in Russia. That has never happened in any country in the history of the world. Are you listening to me? Do I gotta smack you upside the head Democrats? There's nothing you're going to be able to do to stop this momentum. There's nothing you're going to be able to do to stop it. You did everything to prevent Donald Trump to become the president. You made up January 6, you. You went after him, you impeached him twice. You raided Mar A Lago, you tried to take him off the ballot, you tried to put him in jail, you tried to take his fortune with bogus charges. Then you tried to kill him twice. You are on the wrong side of history. And I would strongly suggest you get on the right side. Silver, over 80 bucks. Holy hell. Gold. $4,500 an ounce. My goodness. It's kind of paused since Monday. Maybe an opportunity for you to just text my name. Rob to 989-898 for Birchgold. Because until the 30th of this month, it's already the 7th. If you're a first time gold buyer, Birch Gold was going to give you a rebate of up to $10,000 on qualifying purchases. You know, it's a big deal because maybe you're used to putting your money in IRA or 401k. Why would you put it in savings? The interest is, you know, honestly. And you look at how much gold raised went up last year and you look at, you know, silver now, over 80 bucks an ounce. I mean, goodness, this isn't the snuggie of investments like they used to call, you know, gold is kind of like you got to keep gold, whatever gold is on fuego. On fuego. And right now, up to $10,000 with a qualifying purchase, they'll make it easy for you. All you got to do is text my name, Rob to 989-898. Then you'll talk to somebody. Then they'll just say, here, just give me this information. We'll transfer the money, you know, tax free, tax sheltered, I should say investment in precious metals. And I'd get on it right now. If you haven't done it yet, I would make it a New Year's resolution. How's that make it a New Year's resolution? How about that? Text Rob to 989-898. Rob to 989-898 for Birch Gold. I want to play this again because Tim, Tim Voltz is in a whole lot of hot water. Yesterday you saw him on tv. He is sweating, he is nervous, he is frightened, he is freaked out. And I want to play this montage again because it's so good. So the allegations of fraud were more than tampon Tim could absorb. I wonder, has he been perfect in this? Have I been perfect in this? God dang, no. I wasn't perfect as a teacher. I wasn't perfect as a coach. I wasn't perfect as a soldier. But I was Pretty damn good at all those things. Game's over for him now. It was all me. I was the bad guy or whatever. Well, put up or shut up now and tell us what you're going to do to make this state better. Answer these tough questions, quit hiding behind this and expect for the next 11 months for me to ride you like you've never been ridden. Oh, boy, oh, boy, oh, boy. He's gonna go broke. Back on your mind. You like you've never been ridden before. Somewhere. Mayor Pete's like, I'm too gay. Dana. You know, I've always said stupid is more dangerous than evil. And he is a perfect example. And it gets much bigger than Minnesota. Lots of explosive information coming up. The taxpayer checks go round and round to daycares with no kids around. The taxpayer checks go round round in Minnesota. Not anymore. The massive fraud has been exposed. Tampon Tim. He is host. Billions lost while Tim Waltz dosed in Minnesota. Ilan Omar's guilty too, about the fraud. Omar knew she cashed in. That much is true in Minnesota. Keith Ellison's aligned with crooks making money off of books. He has to know how bad this looks in Minnesota. Nick Shirley is our hero. Respect him more than he could know. Delta left a major blow in Minnesota. In Minnesota. In Minnesota. Yeah. There you go. Just a terrible governor, a totally corrupt state. California is the same way. They're saying up to $250 billion in fraud, according to Steve Hilton, who's running for a governor out there. And I believe he's going to be the next governor in Minnesota. The Minnesota auditor just reported that it confirms Tim Walsh, Department of Human Services, fabricated records and did not verify grant recipients. One outrageous example. The auditors found a grantee that was paid $672,000 for one month of work without any info on what they had to do. And then that grant manager, who was paid by the dhs left a few days later and became a paid consultant for the company. Unbelievable. And it's bigger and worse than you ever imagined. And Tim Waltz is not going to complete his term. I'm just going to tell you that right now. He's not going to complete his term. Let's take a break and come back. The one and only Gordon Chang joins us next. Don't go anywhere. My nightly ritual now is a little ice, a little vanilla yogurt, banana, a little milk and a scoop of chocolate brownie beans.

A protester, a protester, a terrorist in Minnesota attempted to run over ICE agents with her vehicle, requiring Ice Agen to fire defensive shots. She has been pronounced room temperature because this is the mania and the madness that the left is fomented with bought and paid protests around the world or around the country. And consequently she ain't gonna be doing anything else in her life. Just a really ridiculous situation that the Democrat Party, they demonized the police in the summer 2020 and many police officers were injured, said defund the police and now they're doing the same thing with ice. We know it's bought and paid for and hopefully this is going to be ending soon. There's so much other stuff to get to. I've been following Gordon Chang's Twitter feed because I always look forward to talking to Gordon and I think some amazing things are happening in the world. Donald Trump playing 3D chess around the world and so many things, it's almost breathtaking. But whatever it is, we are witnessing history. And Gordon Chang joins us on the Newsmax highlight. Happy New Year, my friend.

C (22:41)

Happy New Year, Rob. And thank you so much.

A (22:44)

I gotta tell you, Gordon, crazy stuff I see on the top of your Twitter feed Russia in response to a tank seizure, they're threatening to the United States with missile fire. And you said not a good idea. It is a very bad idea considering that Russia isn't exactly the strongest right now. Haven't been able to beat a tiny little Ukraine. Their resource orbs are depleted and America is stronger than ever. What are your thoughts on this?

C (23:11)

Well, the important point here is that it not only is a bad idea for Russia, this is even if the Russians don't follow through on their threat, and I don't think they will, what this does is it undermines globalization. Globalization has been the best friend of China. China supports Russia. So this is I think going to get the United States to even faster relocate supply chains from foreign countries onto American soil. And that is very bad news for China, which has never been more trade dependent in its history.

A (23:47)

Yes. And with the capture of Maduro, I mean this is remarkable. I heard Glenn Beck talking about this the other day. Had a very interesting thoughts on it. China gets so much of Venezuela's oil and that's going away. And with it goes the possibility of a massive campaign to capture Taiwan. With go. With it goes the possibility of, of overtaking the world with AI among other things. I mean this was a major, again a 3D chess move by Donald Trump. How do you think this is going to impact China?

C (24:23)

Well, first of all, Venezuela was China's proxy. Clearly China's going to lose that relationship. It not only loses its investments, it loses its listening post, its Chinese officers in the Venezuelan military. But you talked about oil. China has been paying and been getting Venezuela to pay down its debt to China, which is now something like $20 billion or so. It's been doing that by getting oil at discounted rates. Now whether China gets oil or not from Venezuela, we don't know. But even if it does, Trump is not going to sell it to them at a discount. So really what happens is China's now got a $20 billion receivable which it can't collect on.

A (25:10)

Yeah, well, and they're not on the best footing financially. You've also got the fact that the United states now has $20 trillion of investments coming in from around the globe. Manufacturing returning to America, that's a major hit because China had really, I mean we really had forgotten what made in America meant. Barack Obama said that he magic wand to bring manufacturing here. Donald Trump proved that he had the magic wand. And this is going to you, you predicted, it's in your books. You talked about the coming fall of China for years. Do you suppose this was the, the, the fuel that the collapse of China needed?

C (25:55)

Yeah, well it certainly can be because the Chinese economy right now is probably contracting. Nobody really knows where it is, but it's not growing at the 4.8% pace that they claimed for the third quarter of last year. It's probably somewhere around zero. And that means they've got a problem because not only is their economy failing, but also it's failing at a time where they got to pay back debt. China is now having its 2008. It's got to pay back all the debt that it incurred to get all that growth following the great financial crash around the world. And so China's being hit both ends. You know, failing economy, rising debt obligations.

A (26:37)

Yeah, and then this all started. I mean, as soon as Donald Trump became the president, they immediately moved in where the Chinese had essentially captured the Panama Canal. I mean, think about the death grip that China was having on Central and South America and the Western Hemisphere. Think about that. We never heard about that in the news. It just was a quiet creep. And Donald Trump and now Pete Hegseth, they're stopping it. Look at how much has happened, Gordon. I mean, could you put into perspective what has happened the last year with regard to China's slow creep into the Western Hemisphere and its influence on America?

C (27:14)

Well, what we're seeing right now in Latin America is a right wing wave, especially in the elections.

A (27:21)

Yes.

C (27:21)

And now that's going to be accelerated because China's base of operations in the hemisphere, Venezuela now is no longer China's. I think that that means that although Gustavo Petro of Colombia, Lula da Silva, Brazil, Claudia Scheinbaum of Mexico, they don't like us, but they got to fall in line because they don't really have a choice.

A (27:43)

Yeah.

C (27:44)

Is being driven out of the region because of President Trump, but also because China no longer has the money to achieve its ambition. So you know, these, these leaders who don't like us, they're going to have to like us going forward.

A (27:59)

Yeah, yeah. You posted this brilliant piece and I watched it last night from this guy, Steven Eugene Kuhn, and I'm going to tell you, he offered some insights into what is going on that I thought were really, really good. And he talks about Maduro being gone, Iran erupting Now, protests in 100 plus cities. Regime forces are being overwhelmed. A full revolution is underway. We've waited forever. This is sparking a chain reaction with China retreating from the Western Hemisphere, Taiwan staying safe. Hopefully cheap US Oil is going to crush Russia. The mullahs fall. Globalist control over America shattered. This is a domino effect. And I said when Donald Trump got elected and before when it was going to happen, I said that a wave of freedom, patriotism and now faith is going to sweep the globe. And Gordon, you and I have been on the planet a while. You know, the mullahs have been in charge in Iraq or Iran since 1979. The Communists have owned the Castro owned Cuba for more than 60 years. This is going to be a historical year.

C (29:05)

Cuba is a real trouble because it was surviving on cheap Venezuelan oil which is no longer going to be available. You know, they may be able to get something from Mexico, but I don't think Claudia Sheinbaum is in any mood to piss off Donald Trump.

A (29:20)

Oh, no, no, no.

C (29:21)

As you point out, the mullahs in Iran look extremely vulnerable. With protests now in more than 70 cities, the regime elements are failing. It's just a matter of time, I think, before the theocrats are gone.

A (29:34)

I love it. I love it.

C (29:35)

China loses an even more important proxy, which is Iran, 100%.

A (29:39)

Gordon Chang, can you hold on through the break because I would love to cover a few more things because I think we're witnessing history every single day. And you certainly have had a, you're kind of a soothsayer with regard to things like this. And it looks like many of your predictions are coming true as well. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson show. Hey guys, it's Carson for Relief Vector. You know, I saw an ad for Relief Factor a while back and I saw a guy literally in tears with how he talked about the pain that he was experienced was gone. It happened to me, too. I started it taking a few months ago. My hip was really bothering me and I wondered because I'm the age of, you know, replacement of joints and whatnot, if it could be better. And I started taking Relief Factor and it healed. It's a 100% drug free research based formula created to help your body's natural inflammatory response. The same one that caused everyday aches and pains from aging, exercise, overexertion and just normal living. It helped me with my hip, my neck, my shoulders, all the places that remind you you're not 25 anymore. Relief Factor supports a healthy response to inflammation, helping you stay active and keep those joints and muscles feeling good. It's made with four key ingredients, omega 3 fatty acids, resveratrol, curcumin and ikaria. Each one helping from a different angle. You can start with a three week quick start for just $19.95. That's less than a cup of coffee a day. So if you're tired of creaking like an old floorboard. Every time you move, give relief factor a try. Go to relieffactor.com that's relieffactor.com and feel the difference. Relief factor because getting out of bed shouldn't count as a workout. As you know, the US captured President Maduro and flew him out to face charges in New York. Considering that Iran and Venezuela have been close allies for years, linked through groups like Hezbollah, this certainly got the Iranians attention and was a clear message to Tehran. Things can change fast if you push too far. And it was all done very publicly. Just like the movements of the US planes, troops and intelligence to the Middle east recently. Those are probably being publicized to make Iran's leaders and the IRGC nervous. That's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. Some more. During the Venezuela operation, reports say that Russian and Chinese made air defense systems didn't even fire. Noting that Iran has those same weapons, Iranian leadership may start wondering if they have a safe way out of all this. The revolution like situation is spreading and opposition is apparently holding strong in many cities. If this continues, it looks like Iran could be facing a big shift very soon. Yeah, think about that. The global alliance, the, the axis of evil, I guess 2.0 with Iran, with Venezuela, with Russia, with China. And it appears that the foundations of that are really collapsing very quickly. Did you expect, Gordon, this, this kind of thing when it would happen and would grow so exponentially so quickly?

C (32:38)

I certainly didn't expect it now but when we've seen in history when something happens that's good, you, you, there's a wave, but also the opposite is true, that events follow one right after the other. You know, going back to the Biden administration, you had the catastrophic withdrawal from Afghanistan in August 2021 and then the invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. So these events follow one after the other. And what President Trump has done is he's reversed an almost irresistible momentum towards bad outcomes and now we have an almost irresistible momentum toward good outcomes.

A (33:18)

Yeah.

C (33:18)

So this is really important stuff going on right now.

A (33:21)

What did I tell you, Gordon? You've been listening to me. I've had you on my show now I think a good five years that has been syndicated. And I said the first year I was in broadcasting two things happened. The Berlin Wall fell. We all thought that this would go to China because they were gathering students by the thousands in Tiananmen Square. They turned off the lights and they murdered everybody. And China forgot about those people and an America resumed normalized relationships with China. We've waited a, a hell of a Long time to get here, haven't we, Gordon? 37 years, brother, we have waited for this moment.

C (33:58)

Yes. And this moment's not over.

A (34:00)

I know.

C (34:01)

As you just said, you know, before the break, history is being made, and it's being made this week, and it's gonna be made next week and the week after that. Yes, we're gonna see a lot of stuff happen soon, and that's a good thing, because President Trump is moving the world in much better directions.

A (34:18)

Now look what's happening domestically, Gordon. I mean, we're discovering, not a big surprise, that the Democrat Party, the deep state, they, they ushered in Covid, they paid for it, they released it on the country, and they, they increased the size of government 40% and then proceeded to loot the Treasury. And all of these social programs, all these NGOs, all of these spending for SNAP and Medicare, and all of this has gone largely to blue states like Minnesota, where they're saying now maybe $100 billion in fraud in the open California. The same way Steve Hilton, who's running for governor, says that he has been getting tips and working with an auditor and saying $250 billion. Elon Musk said this was happening. This is why the left went after Doge and Elon Musk was a Nazi and all of this stuff. So America, too, we're getting a baptism by fire. And I think it had to happen in our 250th year to, to have another 250 years. And it looks like it's actually happened. Did you expect anything like this in the United States?

C (35:23)

Well, this is good. It actually had to happen at some point because we were spending far too much. I didn't expect it now because normally Democratic governments sort of wait till the last moment. But the thing about Doge and all the cutting back of federal programs is that it's absolutely necessary because the markets are telling us they're not happy. That's one of the reasons why gold and silver have been doing so well over the last 12 months, is because people are rushing out of the dollar into hard assets. And that's because they don't like the unlimited spending. And it's not just the Democrats, it's the Republicans as well. So both parties are guilty.

A (35:59)

Yeah. Yeah. Well, the, the corruption is rampant. I said that the United States and I do now know this. I know this. I said, you know, we used to look at, we used to make fun of Soviet. The Soviet Union used to make. They were the butt of the jokes. They were corrupt. You had the oligarchs over there. And what does America become? An oligarchy. We have people in Congress who make hundreds of millions of dollars in the stock market. We have Ilhan Omar going from no value whatsoever to $30 million in value. That's what we become. We are the Soviet union, but with $7 trillion annually. And this, I got to tell you, all of this is so serendipitous. It is, it is a. I know it's a godly movement. I know it's karma. I know it's the yin and the yang, brother. And. And your final thoughts on that from you today, Gordon Chang.

C (36:50)

The United States is moving in all the right directions and that's because we've got a new president. But we've got to continue on because this is a daily struggle. And Rob, I'm so glad that you highlight this each and every day because other we got our backs against the wall.

A (37:06)

I can be nothing more than optimistic. And, and we've been fighting for so long, Gordon. We, you and. You and I have been fighting for so long together. The last nine, 10 years, the last four years we've been fighting and we are not done fighting. And we certainly are not going to cede any territory to the left. I appreciate you. Gordon Chang. Gordon G. Chang on Twitter. Honestly, it's. You're like my newsfeed, brother. I love it.

C (37:32)

Thank you so much, Rob.

A (37:34)

Yeah, you bet. Happy New Year, bro. We'll talk again soon. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show. So a terrorist rammed an ICE vehicle in Minnesota and the ICE agents shot and killed the terrorist. Jacob Fry, the limp wristed FOP in charge of Minneapolis, is telling ICE to get the bleep out of the city. Literally said get the F out of the city. That's what he told ICE today. I'm going to tell you what. Rain is coming down so hard on Minneapolis, the state of Minnesota, it's ridiculous corruption up there. And for him to say that, brother, you are in. You are. It is coming. It is coming so hard and so fast in your state and it is not going to stop. It is going to be unrelenting. Here's Tom Homan. Well, first of all, the operation. Yeah. I'm extremely happy and this should come as no surprise. American people, you and I spoke months ago. I made a promise that we will flood the zone of every sanctuary city in this country as bringing thousands of more agents, 10,000 more agents because the big beautiful bill, why Minneapolis? Why are they being prioritized for now. Because billions of dollars fraud has been uncovered and what they need to be concerned with. Tim Walsh says he's not going anywhere. Well, either am I. Either is President Trump, either is Pam Bondi. Either is Chrissy. No. So we're there because of the priority census. Right. But that show is going down the road. So if the Democrats are having a fit now, you better get counseling because it's about to get a hell of a lot bigger throughout this nation. That show is going down the road. I actually think Minneapolis is the tip of the iceberg. I think we're going to find a hell of a lot more in Illinois, New York, California. We'll see. But this, this operation will go nationwide. We're going to keep our promise. Absolutely. Jacob Fry, you're about to get a colonoscopy. And Tim Vaults, you ain't gonna be in office till the end of your term. You're not, man. You're done. You toast. You are toast. I've got much more on this the next hour. You have no idea how much I've worked put into the show. We haven't even begun to cover what we're gonna cover today. Gordon Chang mentioned why gold and silver are so high. You've got silver at $80 an ounce. You've got gold at $4,500 an ounce. Instability. The dollar issues with the dollar. A lot of stuff, a lot of balls in the air. And I'm gonna tell you. Do you think, you think it's gonna slow down? You think it's gonna slow down compared to last year? No. It's gonna accelerate. Maybe it's time you convert that IRA 401K into gold. It's. It's only going to accelerate. It's light speed, folks. It's light speed if you're a first time. But gold buyer birch gold will give you up to $10,000 in rebate for every for the qualifying purchase. Okay? So up to $10,000 with a qualifying purchase right now. If your first time to buy gold, take advantage of this rebate because it's amazing. And take advantage of the stratospheric rise of precious metals, particularly gold and silver that we've seen last year into this year. I told you, we're witnessing history. The price of gold being $4,500 is historic. The price of silver being $80, historic. Unbelievable. Now is the time. Text my name, Rob to 989898. Text my name, Rob to 989898 for birch gold and take advantage the ends by the way on the 30th this month. Of course, we'll be here before we know it. On the way, we are hearing Minnesota auditor reported that Tim Walsh, Department of Human Services fabricated records that did not verify grant recipients trying to cover their tracks, enabling massive fraud. I mean, unbelievable stuff. California, it looks like even more corrupt. Illinois, even more corrupt. Christy Noem is on the ground in Minneapolis. A lot of things happen in there. Dr. Oz is talking about what was going on. The Somali daycare situation looks like it was happening across the country. The wheels are coming off the Democrat corrupt machine every day is historical. And Jacob Fry's response today as the mayor of Minneapolis telling ICE to get the F out of Minnesota, Buddy, you just put the pedal to the metal on enforcement and you better consider resigning yourself. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson SHOW.
