Transcript

[Rob Carson]

I didn't think the pain from the shingles rash would affect simple everyday tasks like bathing, getting dressed, or even walking around. I was wrong, though. Not everyone at risk will develop it. 99% of people over the age of 50 already have the virus that causes shingles, and it could reactivate at any time. I developed it and the blistering rash lasted for weeks. Don't learn the hard way like I did. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist today. Sponsored by gsk. Hold it now. You are about to hear the most

[John Lott]

interesting, informative, thought provoking and funny show

[Show Announcer]

in America on air and on the World Wide Web.

[John Lott]

This is the Rob Carson Show.

[Rob Carson]

This is the Rob Carson Show. Thank God it's Monday. I missed you. Did you miss me? I think you probably did because there's a lot of news this weekend. Welcome to Monday. Welcome to Monday in America. Getting ready for April. Moving out of the. The longest march, I think, in history. I swear to God, this is other than like the baton death march, I think was a little bit longer than the month of March this year. We got a lot. Did you hear about the big protest this weekend? Oh, my God, it was just unbelievable. Here's a little audio from it.

[No Kings Protester]

Thank you, President Trump.

[John Lott]

Thank you. Thank you, President Trump.

[Rob Carson]

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. They're saying thank you. Thank you, President Trump. This is in Washington D. Well, this doesn't sound like a no Kings protest. Oh, yeah, yeah. The media wasn't reporting on the hundreds of thousands of people who came to Washington D.C. to thank Donald Trump for taking down the Ayatollah. Yeah, yeah. Nobody reported that because they were too busy, you know, focusing on the morons of the no Kings protest. I mean, my God, so stupid. I'm glad I didn't run into him this weekend. I went out, actually. I was ready to go. I had YMC ready a couple times in the car on the spot account, ready to go, roll down the windows, got the 5000 watt sound system. I was ready to crank YMCA with my new megaphone in my car. I got the loudest megaphone that you could possibly imagine. I got a super megaphone and I was ready to start yelling out the window. Didn't run into a single one of them. Didn't run into a single no Kings protester. But I did go into Washington D.C. yesterday, went to the Washington Monument, stood there, saw all sorts of goodness happening. There was a stage. As I'm driving by, they're playing Free Bird, they're playing Free Bir near the base of Washington Mine, I'm like, oh my God, this is cool. These are certainly not no Kings protesters. And then I started seeing all these Vietnam veteran hats and I realized, oh my God, it's Vietnam Veterans day in Washington D.C. yesterday. And the cherry blossoms were beautiful. The last time I went to the cherry blossoms, I didn't appreciate it because a lot of times you go down the cherry blossoms, there are a billion people down there in three porta potties. But it was beautiful. It was beautiful yesterday when I was driving around and people were walking around and I was looking for anti Trumpers, nobody around. They, I guess were all on there on Saturday. But I didn't see any of that nonsense. It was just, it was really, really something else. And Pete Hagsett delivered a beautiful speech about Vietnam veterans. And I'll just say real quick to the Vietnam veterans in the audience, you may not have been appreciated when you came home or while you were there, but you are now. You are. And you are loved. You are loved. You really are. I hope that America has done a better job of making up to you what the idiots who, by the way, same people the anti war protests in Vietnam are now gray haired walking around with the walkers with the pink, the tennis balls on the bottom screaming all sorts of stupid nonsense about no kings. Which is kind of weird because so many million in the country who got together $278 million through shell companies into activist organizations to fund protests. These, these nationwide protests. It's a $3 billion a year industry. 600 groups are involved and it's about as organic as a Twinkie. Yeah, these no Kings protests are about as organic as a Twinkie. And here's the problem with them. And you can laugh at them all you want, but these idiots want either Donald Trump driven from office. They think they have the power to drive Donald Trump from office. I hate to tell you this, but there are like, I don't know, 100 million well armed Americans who ain't gonna let that happen. I just want to mention that, okay, I mentioned that right off top of the bat. If not that, then they're praying to Satan. I guess they hail Satan that Donald Trump will die. That's what they're hoping. That's what they're hoping. And then they are so anti Trump they would rather have Sharia or communism in our country. So they are to be taken seriously. But we are not going to let them win. Here is a guy interviewing one of these clueless Karens had no idea. None of them have any idea why they're them. Why is Donald Trump a king? How is Donald Trump a king? What abuses and usurpations has he committed on the American people? None of them have an answer. And this is a prime example. So what brings you out today, no Kings Day.

[Investigative Journalist]

And why specifically are you out supporting no Kings Day?

[No Kings Protester]

I think protest is important.

[Rob Carson]

Why are you protesting?

[No Kings Protester]

How much time do you have?

[Rob Carson]

A couple minutes. See, this is a stalling tactic because they have no answers and this happens all the time. I've got. I've copious examples of this coming up. And what's the main reason you're out here protesting President Trump with a lot

[No Kings Protester]

of the decisions that are being made?

[Rob Carson]

Okay, now what's the next question? What's the enemy's gonna be? Oh, yeah. What are those decisions that you disagree with?

[Investigative Journalist]

Is there any decision in particular you disagree with?

[No Kings Protester]

Okay, so where do I start?

[Rob Carson]

There's another pause.

[No Kings Protester]

I would start with. Well, I don't even think. I don't even think it's appropriate for me to have this interview.

[Rob Carson]

It's not even appropriate for me to be here. I mean, I can't believe you'd asked that question. I have no friggin clue I'm being paid. Jim Gossett.

[Show Announcer]

They held no kings to bring me down. They are fools. They look like clowns aging boomers. You can see they didn't lay a glove on me.

[Rob Carson]

Oh no, they didn't.

[Show Announcer]

No, they are paid to protest. Their movement is a total farce.

[Rob Carson]

Dear God.

[Show Announcer]

If there was no money, the turnout would be very sparse.

[Political Commentator]

Of course.

[Show Announcer]

Throw a rent and anti ice it would be really nice if they're hauled away to jail who would post their bail?

[Rob Carson]

Defund em.

[Show Announcer]

They are all unemployed and lazy as can be Naive and being used. But they are too blind to see another useful idiot. A job fair would clear that crowd out. Don't want to work, there's no doubt.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah.

[Show Announcer]

Dead beats they attend no Kings sorrows pulls their strings. Yeah, Singham and the ccp soon they will be history.

[Rob Carson]

Hope so.

[Show Announcer]

No Kings will not be around. I will jot it down.

[Rob Carson]

I hope so. I hope so. And I hope you can get George Soros and Neville Singham extradited to America to face sedition charges and be summarily executed. Yeah, I said it out loud. I said it out loud because George Soros has caused tens of billions of dollars in damage and death. Starting with the Occupy Wall street moving into the summer of 2020 and beyond. All bought and paid for by that SOB. 500 different groups involved in this they have an annual revenue of approximately $3 billion. Not just George Soros, a lot of different people in this group. The only thing that is not surprising I'm reading from a gateway pundit is that these groups are a link to Marxism and bringing about this is why those two individuals need to be extradited for trying to take down our government. That's they should be extradited and tried for sedition. 1,000%, 500 groups, $3 billion in revenue. Some of them are Minnesota indivisible National well heeled Democrat political advocacy organization funded by George Soros, the lead coordinator for the protests. You've got radical network of socialists and communist organizations funded by Neville Roy Singham, an American tech tycoon and avowed communist living in China. Here's an example in New York City is not protected speech. This is seditious speech. Everyone who attended this rally and said this needs to be investigated. And if you're not here as a legal citizen or even if you are a naturalized citizen, you should be, you should be removed.

[No Kings Protester]

Working class revolution.

[Rob Carson]

Working class revolution. Working class revolution.

[No Kings Protester]

Solution. There is only one solution.

[Rob Carson]

Communist revolution. Yeah, only one solution. Communist revolution. I don't know if you know this, but you're, you're too stupid and you went to waste probably each one of you are a couple hundred thousand dollars in debt for a worthless degree. You can't get a job except for, you know, carrying a sign and a communist flag. You know, you might have want to learned about communism because it left about 100 million people in body pits last century. There is only one solution.

[No Kings Protester]

There is only one solution.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, you guys are seditious. SIGAM has financed a constellation of activist activist institutions to promote revolutionary socialist politics. Frequently collaborate in protest camp campaigns including the People's Forum in New York, the Party for Socialism and Liberation, Answer Coalition and Code Pink, whose founder is married to Singham. They are all sending members to the protest. One group said they plan to bring a message of revolution. Again, this is seditious. This is not protected speech. Similar preparations have been underway among socialist communists and Marxist activist groups from the Singham networks that have openly discussed the demonstrations to spread what they describe as revolutionary organizing that's organizing against the American government to overthrow the American government and that's not protected speech. So there you go. And I'm just waiting for Scott Bessant to start cutting the money off. He keeps saying he's going to cut the money off. Let's start cutting the money off. Azra Nomani, good friend of the show here she is talking about it. She's a fantastic investigative journalist from these

[No Kings Protester]

500 groups with, get this, a 3 billion dollar budget, 3 billion collectively. And where does their, you know, political influence, their political contributions and their, you know, individual employee donations go? But mostly to the Democratic Party. And that's why we see this silence. And unfortunately they pull their punches on the issues that matter to you, for example, that you just cited because that would mean turning against the Democratic.

[Rob Carson]

I told you, the left and the Democrats are doing a death spiral into hell. And they are dragging, kicking and screaming, trying to drag us into hell with them. And we're not going. And we're not going. And I'm going to continue with the plan except for I'm going to add something. Overwhelm the left. Overwhelm these people with positivity, with patriotism and joy and faith because they don't believe in God. They are not on the side of God, they don't believe in God, they damn God in their actions. So overwhelm them with joy and optimism, patriotism and faith. And we're going to get through this. Let's take a break and come back, shall we? This is the Rob Carson Show.

[Show Announcer]

The Rob Carson show podcast is everywhere. Go to Newsmax.com listen for details.

[Political Commentator]

These no Kings rallies actually look pretty representative to me of the Democratic coalition. I saw people flying the hammer and sickle in New York City. I saw Hezbollah flags, I saw Hamas flags, I saw Palestinian flags, I saw trans signs. I see weirdo liberal boomers out there. This is pretty representative of the Democratic coalition and that's who funds it as well, by the way. And so I think if, if America looks at this and says what do the two parties stand for? They got it at the no Kings.

[John Lott]

No, I think if you Americans are

[No Kings Protester]

out there, out there, Republicans, you like

[Political Commentator]

hammer and sickle, you like hammer and sickle flag.

[No Kings Protester]

That's not what that no King stood for.

[Rob Carson]

They had a bunch of, you know, honestly this the rest of the panel here to say that, oh, this is real American. This is Republicans, Democrats, you're out of your friggin mind. They think that if you, if you yell loud enough that, and you repeat the same stuff that you're going to, you know, everybody will believe. Well, we don't all believe it. Just the idiots at the no Kings protest. Believe. Believe. This is Chuck Todd of all people, Chuck Todd of all people talking about what the Democrat Party is now and they don't stand for anything.

[Political Commentator]

Is the Democratic Party a left of Senate party I think you've just hit that. I think this is the identity crisis that they have.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah.

[Political Commentator]

I think it's just a collection of people that don't like Trump. What, right now?

[John Lott]

Yeah.

[Political Commentator]

Right. And that's. That served them well in 20. But imagine trying to create a big tent that had AOC and John Kasich in it.

[John Lott]

10. Right.

[Political Commentator]

You know, or how about. Or Liz Cheney and AOC New. You're sort of going to rip a

[Rob Carson]

hole in the middle.

[John Lott]

Right.

[Political Commentator]

As you're trying to stretch that tent. And I think that that's, that's why they sort of have lost their. They're just, it feels like they're way too poll tested. It feels like that they're trying so hard to sort of keep their suburban voters. And that's been part of their problem. The growth in the Democratic electorate is in the suburbs, wealthy suburbs. And so the growth of the Republican electorate has been in the working class. Excerpts.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, yeah, for sure. I mean, not only that, but like I was out this weekend. I met a lot of people and met a lot of people of color actually and talked a lot about the Democrat Party and how the Democrat Party has left behind people of color. And it's happening, man. I mean I heard it in, when I was in Baltimore this weekend, when I was in Maryland this weekend. This is Nick Cannon. He's a big performer, I guess. You know, he's hosted a bunch of TV shows and whatnot. Here he is driving around reminding everybody that the. And he's talking to another woman who just happens to be black, by the way. And they, they know what the Democratic Party has always been about. Part of the Republican Party. Uh huh.

[No Kings Protester]

That's right. Former Democrat, former liberal. I was a liberal Democrat my whole life.

[Rob Carson]

Is that because the bag has gotten so intense and so heavy that you got a whole nother you up there with the, the elite now?

[No Kings Protester]

Not even close. Not even close. Democrats don't care about black people. They don't care about people of color and the Republicans do. And that's the misconception.

[Rob Carson]

And you know what? I agree with you. 100 people don't know that the Democrats

[John Lott]

is the party of the kkk.

[No Kings Protester]

Yep.

[John Lott]

People don't know that the Republicans are the party that freed the slaves.

[No Kings Protester]

Yeah.

[Rob Carson]

I mean, this is why Facebook killed the Walk Away movement, because there were 500,000 people of color who were leaving the Democrat Party and Mark Zuckerberg killed the movement, destroyed their profiles and everything. I was talking to a woman this weekend who just happens to be a Person of color who used to knock on doors for Barack Obama and Joe Biden and all this. And she completely abandoned the Democrat Party when she saw people laughing out loud about Charlie Kirk's assassination. She said, I can't be a part of this anymore because she's a godly woman. And it was a terrific conversation. And she was a player in Annapolis. She knew a lot. Everybody who. Everybody in Maryland, politics and whatnot. And she said as soon as she became a Republican, she got called all sorts of words. I mean, words I cannot say on the radio. Not only because I'm a white guy. There are certain words that start with N and C you can't say on the radio. But she got called them all when she decided to leave the Democrat Party. And this is kind of the way the Democrats seem to be. No, actually, it's the way they are. This is kind of funny. This is a guy interviewing a white liberal Karen at a no Kings protest. And the Democrats and the no Kings protesters, largely white women. I told you that like Kamala Harris constituents were white liberal Karens and the emasculated men in their lives. And I was absolutely right. Here he. Here she is. By the way, this is the same woman who got rid of Aunt Jemima because of George Floyd. Got rid of Uncle Ben because of George Floyd and the Redskins and the Native American on the Land o' Lakes butterfly for no good reason. But she wanted to step in and say, I've got this. Here she is again talking about why there are no black people. Why there are and there are no black people at the no Kings protest. You're gonna notice it. Did you notice that this weekend? Did you see a black person in the no Kings protest? You know why? Cuz there weren't any. It seems like there's a lack of

[Investigative Journalist]

diversity here today, that it's mostly people

[Political Commentator]

who look like you and I and I just.

[No Kings Protester]

This is not. It is not for black people, for people of color to be. To get out.

[Rob Carson]

This is. Karen, I've got this. I've got this street.

[No Kings Protester]

They're at risk when they do that. If anybody's gonna get arrested here, it's gonna be a black person. It is not safe for them. And they don't need to.

[Rob Carson]

Black people don't want to go to the no Kings protest because they're afraid they'll get arrested because they'll get arrested because they're black.

[No Kings Protester]

We need to walk in their name.

[Political Commentator]

Gotcha.

[Rob Carson]

Okay, well.

[John Lott]

Okay.

[Political Commentator]

What do you think about voter ID? Do you think it's racist.

[No Kings Protester]

It's 100% a tactic to control the population and prevent people from voting who

[Rob Carson]

are the only people who can vote the only votes.

[No Kings Protester]

So that the gerrymandering can work. So that white voters can vote in white Christian males.

[Rob Carson]

Okay. I think she's having a mild stroke or something there because nothing she said there made any sense at all.

[Political Commentator]

Have you been voting blue?

[Rob Carson]

Get her an aspirin or something most of your life.

[No Kings Protester]

I voted blue in the womb.

[Rob Carson]

Well, it's amazing you actually survived. Your mother didn't abort you. That's just crazy. That happened. That's just nuts. Oh, it's just madness. It is madness. And again, overwhelm them with joy and patriotism and faith. And faith. I've got a story this week I'm going to share shortly about a little. A little message I think I got from God this weekend. I'll share it very shortly on the show. 2006, $20,000 equal 33 ounces of gold. If you had that gold now, it'd be worth about 150 grand. Is your. Did your IRA or 401k go up that much? Probably not. Probably not. Gold is kind of giving you a pause to purchase. And Birch Gold is the company that I choose. Birch Gold is fantastic. I did a little commercial for Birch Gold in front of the Washington Monument because the Washington Monument has no structural steel, no heavy metal holding that thing up. It just held by the gravity bricks and mortar. But a lot of people take care of it. If you are on your own with your wealth management and your IRA and 401k, you need some metal, you need some precious metals to add to all of the other things you have, the myriad other things you have in your portfolio to make it solid, to make it last so when you retire, you'll have something. Birch Gold is who I have chosen. I have got money with Birch Gold. And if you'd like to start an attack, sheltered IRA or 401k in gold, text my name, rob to 989-898 for birch gold. That's rob to 989-898 for birch gold. No obligation, just information. A plus rating for the BBB. Thousands of happy customers, including this guy right here. I'm pointing at myself. If you're streaming, Burt's Gold is amazing. Text Rob to 989-898 for Birch Gold. Coming up, V. John Lott, president of Crime Prevention Research center, to talk about $200 million coming from Ukraine to Joe Biden's campaign. They were gonna do that from usa. That's why they got rid of them. That's all coming up on the Rob Carson Show. Don't go anywhere. Hey guys, it's Carson for quints. Winter is over. I'm putting away the layers. You know, the vest, the tweed jackets, getting out the shorts and the light linen shirts. Quince.com is where I refresh my wardrobe and pare down the old tired, lower quality stuff that I've held on for years. Quince makes high quality everyday essentials using premium materials like 100% European linen and their insanely soft flow knit activewear fabric. Their men's linen pants and shirts are lightweight, breathable, comfortable, basically the perfect layer for spring. The pants strike the right balance between laid back and refined so you look put together without trying too hard. The best part is the prices are 50 to 60% less than similar brands. Quince works directly with ethical factories, cuts out the middleman. So you're paying for quality, not brand markup. Everything is designed to last and makes getting dressed easy.

Quince.com Newsmax the United States government, the National Security Agency intercepted conversations of President Zelensky's government in Ukraine in 2022, late 2022, conspiring with federal workers at the USAID to come up with a plan to take $200 million of USAID money. That is your money, folks, taxpayer money. Route it through a series of transactions, move it into the United States and launder it into Joe Biden's 2024 campaign and the Democratic National Committee. That is John Solomon at CPAC this year. And this is without a doubt, it actually happened. These are confidential documents that have been released. Aid was going to funnel $200 million originally sent to Ukraine for a war effort that we spent $250 billion on and still haven't accounted for a single dime of it. So you know, and of course, you know, there's Ukraine being the place where the world's oligarchs have always gone to launder their money. Other than that, it's certainly a worthy military conflict. Joining us on this hotline is the John Lott. I'm not even going to call John Lott. The John Lott, president of the Crime Prevention Research Center. John Lott, welcome to the show.

[John Lott]

Well, thanks for having me on. It's great to talk to you absolutely.

[Rob Carson]

You know, I didn't understand when one of the first things out of the box when Donald Trump became the president was disintegrating usaid. But I guess it was the best kept secret for absolute corruption in American political history.

[John Lott]

Well, obviously a lot of money was going to NGOs, not getting to kind of the claim beneficiaries of it. You know, it's interesting that $200 million may have gone directly to Joe Biden's campaign in 2024, and I assume got passed on to Kamala Harris. That's an untrivial percentage of the $1.5 billion that I guess she raised and spent during the campaign there. So Beyonce and others who got fees for kind of endorsing Kamala Harris may have had taxpayer dollars paying for their endorsements there.

[Rob Carson]

Now we've got this giant NGO industrial complex in the United States, and it really has come to a light since Donald Trump became the president. We saw that during COVID they increased the size of the federal budget by 40% and they essentially have been looting it ever since. When did this all really start to happen? Was it during Obama's administration when all of these NGOs, all of this non governmental organization, under the business of some kind of a nonprofit, began to just funnel our tax dollars into organizations that want to tear down America and build up Democrats?

[John Lott]

Well, I think it's been longer than that. I'm pretty sure you've had all these NGOs around even during the Clinton administration now, just the size and the amount of money going to them. Yeah, I'm sure that's been increasing fairly dramatically over time. I mean, one of the ironies is you go and give money to these NGOs, and then these NGOs use that money to go and lobby for more money to be given to them. So. And they become more effective over time in terms of lobbying and fighting for that money. So, you know, it's not too surprising that it's grown. I mean, just look at the opposition and stuff for having this funding cut. But, you know, it's not just the fact that the money's going to NGOs, but even a lot of the money that kind of went to the so called beneficiaries was for very bizarre things like, you know, supporting transgender individuals in Africa and, you know, things that really we have no business trying to go and push and fund things that would go dramatically against kind of the moral values of, of a lot of Americans to know that their tax dollars were being used to fund those Things are

[Rob Carson]

we getting closer to defunding them? I mean, there, I mean, when do you suppose all of this is going to end?

[John Lott]

I mean, obviously taking the money out of USAID and moving it to the State Department where Marco Rubio is more directly overseeing it. I'm sure it's, you know, they're making a lot of progress. Unfortunately, it's just not the federal government. You have state governments go and other local governments go and give a lot of money to a lot of different types of NGOs across the country, which then go and use this for political activity.

[Rob Carson]

It's kind of like public sector unions. Public sector unions vote slavishly Democrat and there's a, there's a good deal of bread buttering on that side. NGOs I guess, kind of take up the slack. But NGOs have kind of taken it to a new level because they're getting billions and billions, maybe even trillions of dollars.

[John Lott]

Right. I mean, you mentioned public sector unions. I mean the irony is that, that you have Democrats in power who negotiate contracts with the unions and then the unions go and make their members pay dues that they then go and funnel back to the Democrats to make sure that they stay in office and continue to do the very lucrative contracts with them. But, you know, it's just, you know, so I do a lot of research. The federal government spends about $100 million a year on public health research dealing with firearms. And then you have these academics go and testify before Congress saying that they need even more money from the federal government to do this. But one of the things that I've learned over time is that the federal government just can't keep politics out of its decisions about who gets research funding. You know, they go and give it to public health people rather than economists or criminologists for, for crime because they know the public health people are much more likely to support the types of causes the Democrats like.

[Rob Carson]

And this is hence the, the massive, massive Medicare fraud that's happening all over the country. These, for instance, autism centers in Minnesota. This include the apparently bought and paid for mafia run end of life care in California industry where people are going to go get their hospice care at a strip Mall with 20 other, you know, right next to the, to the liquor store and the cash for pawn store. Very clearly you're right on that. There's, I guess there's a sympathy for healthcare and then also just a massive amount of money associated with the well, so it's much more ripe for fraud.

[John Lott]

Right. I mean, even In Ohio, you had some center dealing with autism that was getting something like $360,000 per autism child that they were supposedly dealing with. You know, you just, you had recent statements from the administration that said that they could almost undo most of the budget deficit if they could get the fraud under control there. And you know, that's pretty staggering given that we're like at $38 trillion right now, which is much higher than our income. You know, at some point our grandchildren are going to have to be paying for this. But you just had a situation just in the last few days where I can't remember the exact amount, but it was like $48 billion or something like that for massive Medicare fraud where a group of doctors were using AI to kind of generate fake, you know, patient records that were there and putting them in and, you know, just, and then going and ordering treatment for these non existent patients that there, you know, we basically, whether it's Somalis in Minnesota or in Ohio or other places, these doctors, we've made a lot of people very, very wealthy with taxpayer dollars.

[Rob Carson]

Now, John, like, can you hold on through the break because I'd like to talk to you about the absurd arguments against voter ID and proof of citizenship with your vote and then also talk a little bit about no kings who's funding that. Can you hold on through my friend?

[John Lott]

Sure. Happy to.

[Rob Carson]

[Investigative Journalist]

She has been at the, the center of a lot of the worst fraudsters in the Somalian community. So do I know that Ilya Omar was aware that the Quality Leering center was defrauding the American people? I'm not certain of it, but we at least need to investigate it, because if people can commit wrongdoing without even the fear that they're going to be found out, that's a fundamental problem. So I'm worried about the immigration fraud. I'm also worried about what does Elian Omar know about what was happening in the Somalia community and why was nobody looking into it until, frankly, Donald Trump came along?

[Political Commentator]

Yeah, that's right. What about, you know, your friend Tim Walls? I mean, you guys shared a wonderful moment on the debate stage.

[Investigative Journalist]

I do feel very bad for Tim Walls because of what happened in the October 2024 debate. But unfortunately, we're going to have to maybe kick him again a little bit because, again, look, I don't know, to be clear, I don't know what Tim Waltz knew about the fraud that was happening in Minneapolis. And but what I do know is that the Department of Justice is now going to look into it. We're now going to investigate it, and if he committed a crime, we're absolutely going to prosecute it.

[Rob Carson]

Well, he would be. It would be impossible for him not to know about it because his chief of staff knew about it. And if nobody told him that, even though you saw these, you know, autism charities spending go from 7 million to 400 million in five years, massive. It's obvious. It's very obvious. Particularly John Lott when it comes to Keith Ellison, who is the chief law enforcement officer in the state, who literally said he would get people off investigators, off the cases of Somalis involved in this stuff, it is ridiculous, I think, to think that they weren't, they didn't know exactly what was going on in the state of Minnesota, and I would venture to say also in states like California. Right.

[John Lott]

Well, I mean, obviously you have the audio recording where Keith Ellison is making the statement that you're saying there, where he's talking to these Somali individuals and promising that he'll provide them protection. And obviously huge donations were being given to the Democrats by the Somali community that was there. You know, it's very concerning. And just the amount of vote fraud that was likely occurring in the state there, where one person can go and vouch for eight other people without anybody having to show any of them, having to show identification, all those things are concerning. And, you know, the fact that they would set up the laws the way they did and do other things, you know, I think shows what lawyers would call kind of evidence of a guilty mind.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, absolutely. And I said, started saying years ago that the. We're going to find out that the United States government is as corrupt as the Soviet Union, the former Soviet union, but with $7 billion to spend. And I think that there's a reason why this is being exposed, why we're knowing this now. I'm just, I'm not, I'm not surprised, but I'm just kind of marvel at the lack of journalistic curiosity for the biggest fraud committed against the American people in the history of the world. And yet abc, cbs, NBC are not covering it. I mean, honestly, it is a complete betrayal of journalistic curiosity. And fortunately, people like Nick Shirley and others are beginning to pick up the slack and expose these stories. And I think that's. That's pretty remarkable. You, as a journalist certainly can understand

[John Lott]

that that was academic. You know, you'd like to think people are curious about these things. You'd like to think that the media is going to go and investigate these things. But, you know, unfortunately, you know, a lot of people who get their news and information from the legacy media are, you know, really uninformed. You know, not just in terms of issues like the fraud that's occurring, but, but, you know, many other things like crime by illegal aliens and what have you. You're not going to see, I mean, on Fox or whatever, you'll see stories. Bill Malugian or others will have stories there. But, you know, people can read the New York Times, the Washington Post, you know, even looking at things like transgender violence. We just situation of this attack in Rhode island where cnn, the New York Times, abc, NBC, you know, whole. The Associated Press failed to mention that the individual was transgender. You know, you had the attack in Canada. The Associated Press refused to mention that the murderer there was transgender. You know, I assume they justify it to themselves saying that they don't want to demonize any community that's there. But, you know, they go. And if it fits certain templates, they'll go and emphasize that. So if it's, you know, the Biden administration would go and claim that whites were, you know, the main danger in

[Rob Carson]

terms of the biggest threat. Yeah,

[John Lott]

but they would not mention kind of their share of the population. So you have, you know, maybe 54% of the mass public shooters are white, non Middle Eastern whites, but 64% of the overall population is. So they're actually underrepresented. But you have something like Muslims. Muslims during the period of 1998 through 2025 were overrepresented compared to their share of the population by 18.2 times. So it's just, you know, but you would, you know, the media doesn't cover these types of things. And, and.

[Rob Carson]

Well, John, we're running out of time, but I want to thank you for being on the show today. You've got a couple of great pieces up on your. On your Twitter, by the way. The real rate of transgender violence, much worse than the media admits it.

[John Lott]

And.

[Rob Carson]

And much more. I really appreciate your expertise on all of these things. 1:30 seconds. Are you optimistic for America? I know we're in perilous times. Are you optimistic that we'll be able to get past all of this?

[John Lott]

I don't know. I mean, I guess the next couple of elections will tell people this, but, you know, we try to get information out on things like how the US Compares to other countries in terms of vote fraud regulations. I don't think most people are well informed. I don't think absolutely how unique we are in terms of not requiring photo IDs or proof of citizenship. So, you know, you just try to get the information out.

[Rob Carson]

Absolutely. I appreciate your time. You're on Twitter at John R. Lott Jr. By the way. Jr. Thank you for being on the show today, my friend. I appreciate you.

[John Lott]

Thank you very much.

[Rob Carson]

All right, let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show.

[Political Commentator]

That's the first time on the record that we have absolute and total confirmation that Ilhan Omar did, in fact, commit immigration fraud. And I looked this up right before coming on your show, that lying on your immigration forms or committing fraud against the United States of America is an immediate denaturalization offense. It is something that has been tried in court. It happens actually quite regularly where people lie to get into this country. They're denaturalized, they're sent home. That must happen with Ilhan Omar. The rest of the clip. JD Vance says we're exploring this right now, but Stephen Miller has all of the available evidence. And I checked with DHS. This is 100% true. Ilhan Omar committed immigration fraud to get into America and to loot our nation dry. And it is time that she suffer the consequences.

[Rob Carson]

Oh, boy, wouldn't it be great, by the way, Somaliland, which sounds kind of like Zombieland over in Somalia, they want her back. They said, we want the princess back because she was. She was part of a privileged class and her father was a murderous wretch who escaped like the Nazis did in World War II. And so hopefully, hopefully, hopefully JD Vance will be able to get her out of Congress, denaturalize her and send her back to Somaliland. By the way, October 25th through the 29th, we're doing this massive trip to Washington, D.C. it's gonna be five nights and five days and four nights. White House tour of the, the tour center halls of democracy, guided tours the U.S. capitol, visit Arlington National Cemetery, changing the guard. It's with me. I told you. This is a very serendipitous moment in history where we come together. It's the 250th year of our country's birth. There's a lot of things that are happening that are just amazing. We're in the middle of a battle of good and evil, and good is going to win, but we've got to overwhelm the left with joy and patriotism and faith. And faith. And faith. So I want you to come and join me. Go to travelwithrob.net if you want to join me. This October 25th through the 29th cruise and tour is doing it. I understand the, the, the response has been overwhelming. So I would book it if you can. I saw some talk about it this morning round to Pony over on Rumble's. Like I'm trying to see if I can go book it. We can do this. I want to meet you guys. I want to hang out with you. I'm gonna take days off to spend with you in Washington D.C. as we take this in together because it's been 10 years in the coming and we deserve a great time in our nation's capital. You got six meals, ground transportation, guides and gratuities. The whole deal. This fall. Just go to travelwithrob.net travelwithrob.net or 8003-8331-3180-0383-3131. Get it booked. It's gonna be amazing. And this only happens once every 250 years. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show.
