Donald Trump
You are about to hear the most interesting, informative, thought provoking and funny show in America on air and on the World Wide Web. This is the Rob Carson Show.
- [01:12]
Rob Carson
This is the Rob Carson Show. Hour number two of the Rob Carson Show. This hour we have Brigitte Gabriel, who is awesome. I love Brigitte Gabriel. Whenever she's on Newsmax or wherever, I always stop and listen to what she has to say because she's a remarkable individual who's been through a lot. And we are witnessing history right now with the fall of the Ayatollah in Iran and we've been so bloody busy that we haven't had a chance to really celebrate the history that we're seeing. Not only with Maduro's withdrawal from Venezuela, we're opening up the embassy there again, which is pretty cool. Marco Rubio mentioned that the reopening of the embassy in Caracas took place Monday, less than three months after the January operation that removed Venezuelan dictator Nihala. That's how they say it on the national news. They just suddenly speak in Spanish. Today we are formally resuming operations the US Embassy in Caracas, marking a new chapter in our diplomatic presence in. So there you go. It's pretty cool. And then also they're selling oil and the money, the proceeds is going to help out the Venezuelan people. So that's kind of cool. That's pretty amazing, right? Right? And the drug boats. Are you hearing anything more about the drug boats? Because the drug boats are toast, man. No more drug boats. Oh, my God. Isn't that amazing? Then the southern border is closed and manufacturing is coming back into America. I got a wonderful report about Mercedes Benz investing $4 billion in America to build those cars you and I can't afford. So anyway, I don't know if I own a Mercedes. I don't know.
- [02:51]
Donald Trump
I don't know.
- [02:51]
Rob Carson
I mean, they're nice cars. I don't know. I freak out if I pay more than $60 for a pair of shoes. You know, I bought a pair of jeans online yesterday. And you know my movers, the movers, are you ready for that? When I moved here, I hired these jack weeds to move my stuff out here and a whole bunch of my stuff got broken. And then all of my jeans disappeared. All of my jeans are gone. I literally. Are you ready? Are you ready to cry? I had a 1980 pair of 501 jeans. I'll never fit in them again. 1980 pair of 501 jeans. Button fly gone, gone. So I had to get online and order jeans. So I'm online ordering these jeans and these stretch fabric jeans and all that. And they're supposed to be the best jeans ever. And the dang price is $79 for a pair of jeans. So you can imagine how I feel about cars. You know, I'm driving my Bronco Buck and that's the most expensive car I've ever, ever even owned. And it isn't even that expensive. The median right now, the median price of a new car now is like 48 grand. So that's right where I am. You know, I'm, I'm four years into payments. I'm already pay that sucker off. I'm going to keep them forever. I might be buried in them, for God's sake. You know, whatever. Anyway, so, you know, kind of tight on the money, but that said, Mercedes Benz going to be building cars in America. There you go, There you go. This is Marco Ruby. Here's our Secretary of State. He's fantastic, by the way, talking about why, and there's no doubt about this, there's no doubt about this whatsoever, why we took the opportunity to take down Iran.
- [04:32]
Marco Rubio
Right now many Americans are asking, why did the United States have to attack Iran now? Well, let me explain. Iran wants to have nuclear weapons. Of that there is zero doubt if what they truly wanted, which is what they claim is nuclear energy. Well, they could have nuclear energy like all the other countries in the world have it. And that is you import the fuel and you build reactors above ground.
- [04:53]
Rob Carson
Easy.
- [04:54]
Marco Rubio
That's not what Iran has done. No, they build the reactors and their facilities deep in mountains, away from the public glare. And they want to enrich that material. The same equipment that they could use to enrich material for energy, they could use to quickly enrich it to weapons grade U235.
- [05:11]
Rob Carson
They have to put it in centrifuges to, to basically intensify it, to make it kind of concentrated. And then it becomes. I learned about this. I watched Neil Degrasse Tyson special on it last night. Not fan of his politics, but I'm kind of a science geek.
- [05:25]
Marco Rubio
So it is clear that they've been offered every opportunity to have.
- [05:28]
Rob Carson
That's what I do in my spare time when I'm sitting at home by myself.
- [05:31]
Marco Rubio
Nuclear program that allows them to have energy, not weapons. And every single time they have turned it down. Yeah, but why the attack now? Well, what was Iran trying to do?
- [05:40]
Rob Carson
What were they doing?
- [05:41]
Marco Rubio
Iran was trying to build a conventional shield. In essence, have so many missiles, have so many drones that no one could attack them. And they were well on their way. We were on the verge of an Iran that had so many missiles and so many drones that no one could do anything impenetrable about their nuclear weapons program in the future. That was an intolerable risk. Under no circumstances can a country run by radical Shia clerics with a death
- [06:05]
Rob Carson
wish and wanting to kill everybody because they're going to get some virgins in
- [06:07]
Marco Rubio
heaven or something, apocalyptic vision of the future ever possess nuclear weapons. And under no circumstances can they be allowed to hide and protect that program and their ambitions.
- [06:17]
Rob Carson
Yeah, 100%. And they had enough nuclear material for 11 missiles. And then we found out that they could actually launch a missile at Diego Garcia, which sounds like it shouldn't belong over there. Like Diego Garcia got all of a sudden the middle of the Middle east or whatever. All of a sudden, hey, it's Diego Garcia. Come here for, you know, and they launched a missile like 2000 miles to Diego Garcia. And that's when the people in, in Europe kind of got a little, a little sphincter shrinkage, I'll just put it that way. Paris and London, they went, oh, my God. Well, we can, they can hit us. And that's what they could have done. And they wouldn't have stopped there. So you see where it was going. And Donald Trump decided, because he's been talking about this his entire life since 1987, essentially, that eventually Iran was going to start some sort of war and Iran was going to have to be taken down. And look what we're doing. It's history. It's history. Here's Marco Rubio. Because, you know, our NATO allies, which honestly, fair weather friends, right? Fair weather friends, they left us hanging, man. Their, their TDS left us hanging. We're asking, hey, can we use your, your air bases? That's all we need. And then, and then this is so cheap. Like, you know, Keir Starmer, who's honestly a feminized version of Neville Chamberlain, I mean like, like Kristy Nelms husband version of Neville Chamberlain. Hey big boy. Anyway, he's like saying oh yeah, yeah, once you get those, the straits open and once the military oper we'll send an aircraft carrier over, it's like oh yeah, you know what, how about just stick it. And so the other day Donald Trump said, here's an idea if you want. We don't, we don't depend on the Straits of Hormuz for your oil. So you take care of it. That's what he said. And now Marco Ruby and Donald Trump are saying, you know what? I think we're going to leave NATO
- [08:05]
Marco Rubio
threatened if now we have reached a point where the NATO alliance means that we can't use those bases. That in fact that we can no longer use those bases to defend America's interests then NATO is a one way street.
- [08:17]
Rob Carson
Yeah.
- [08:17]
Marco Rubio
The NATO is simply about us having troops in Europe to defend Europe. But when we need their help, not their help.
- [08:24]
Rob Carson
Yeah. Whenever they need a war booty call, they just call us up. We go, okay, okay.
- [08:28]
Marco Rubio
We're not asking them to conduct airstrikes when we need them to allow us to use their military bases.
- [08:32]
Rob Carson
They let us down. They forsook us.
- [08:34]
Marco Rubio
Our answer is no. Then why are we in NATO? You have to ask that question. Why do we have billions and billions of dollars, hundreds of billions of dollars over the years, trillions of dollars and all these American forces stationed in the region if we can only use in our time of need, we're not going to be allowed to use those bases.
- [08:51]
Rob Carson
Yeah, it's like having friends. You know, you buy all the drinks at the bar and everything and you know, the moment you're unemployed they never call you again. I'm not saying that's ever happened to me, but it has. Here is Marco Rubio about the NATO rethink.
- [09:05]
Marco Rubio
So I think there's no doubt, unfortunately after this conflict is concluded we are going to have to re examine that relationship. We're going to have to re examine the value of NATO and that alliance for our country. Ultimately that's a decision for the President to make.
- [09:18]
Rob Carson
Two words, Yan Yon. Y o n. Let me see. Y a H N Y o N. Yan yon.
- [09:25]
Marco Rubio
And he'll have to make it. We're going to finish the job here. As I said, we're very, very close to achieving our objectives on all of these things that I've outlined. But I do think unfortunately we are going to have to reexamine whether or not this alliance that has Served this country well for a while, is still serving that purpose? Or has it now become a one way street where America is simply in a position to defend Europe?
- [09:46]
Rob Carson
That's what it is. That's what it is. They expect us to pull their rear ends out of the fire. We did it twice last century. I know that sounds like a cliche. We did. We saved your butts a couple times. We got a lot of our servicemen buried at Point Duoc in France, for God's sake. And here we go. You know Victor Davis Hansen. Oh, my God. Victor Davis Hanson. One of the things. He is a war historian, among other things. I want you to listen to what he has to say, not only about how we have helped NATO. And you're thinking World War I, World War II, all that? No, no, no, no, no. Obviously NATO wasn't around then, but.
- [10:22]
Victor Davis Hanson
But since European countries that are in NATO have a habit of unilateral activity for their own interest. When the British wanted to go in the Falklands, they came to us and they said, we need 2 million gallons of gas. We need tomahawks, we need renaissance. We said, well, we want to restore relations with our Western hemisphere Spanish speaking friends. And nevertheless, we went out on a limb and supported them. When the French wanted to go into Chad unilaterally for a post colonial expedition, they said to us, we need refueling, we need reconnaissance. When they wanted to bomb Libya, which was a misadventure, the French and British came to us, would you please lead this bombing? When they wanted to go into Serbia and protect Kosovo, which was not a NATO country, they came to us and they said, would you lead this? When the Ukraine war, Ukraine was attacked, I think on.
- [11:14]
Rob Carson
Yeah, we gave him $250 billion. It was. Was laundered largely and including $200 million into Joe Biden's 2024 campaign by US Aid.
- [11:23]
Victor Davis Hanson
We sympathize Ukraine, but it was not a NATO power. They came to us and said, would you spearhead the help for Ukraine? So it's always been a one way street when they want to take action in their national interest, but this action was not just in our national interest, it was in the global interest.
- [11:39]
Rob Carson
Yeah, we're saving the Nang world again.
- [11:41]
Victor Davis Hanson
Secretary Rubio really brilliantly exposited. And then the final thing, Sean, we're not talking about a weak country. We're talking about NATO members in Europe that have 450 million people, 100 million people more than we do, and an economy of $22 trillion, the third largest in the world. Ten times larger than Russia. They're perfectly capable of stepping up and pulling their own weight. And this was a terrible, tragic error on their part. And Americans are going to have a long memory and they're going to, they're going to ruin the moment they did this.
- [12:14]
Rob Carson
Yeah. 100%. You do not want to be on the wrong side of Donald Trump. You do not want to be on the wrong side. I mean, we are benevolent, we are the most benevolent people in the history of the world. And Donald Trump is the first president to say, you know, we're kind of tired of being b slapped by the rest of the world. We're kind of, we're kind of tired of bailing you out. And right now, you know, England and France are on the verge of an Islamist takeover. You want us to, you're going to be needing to be bailed out or you're going to fall. But I think this time they really kind of screwed the pooch. On the other side of the break, we have got a winning, a winning update. You know, it's Wednesday. It's winning Wednesday. And we got some good news on the economy. We got some good news on Mercedes Benz building cars in America. That's on the other side of the break. This is the ROB Carson show.

Donald Trump
the media and our friends in the Democrat Party kept saying we needed new legislation. We must have legislation to secure the border. But it turned out that all we really needed was a new president.
- [14:32]

- [16:58]
Marco Rubio
It's lots of winning.
- [16:59]
Brigitte Gabriel
Lots of winning.
- [17:00]
Rob Carson
Lots of winning. Lots of winning. Lots of winning. Lots of winning. It's oh, so good. And I was going to play Harry into panicking or he's not panicking. He's celebrating that Donald Trump's approval ratings have dipped. You know what I think about approval ratings? I don't give a flying rip. Joe Biden, well, the people who handled him and used the auto pin, they never gave a damn about his approval ratings. He was wildly unpopular, much less popular than Donald Trump. So I don't give a flying rip. Donald Trump took the biggest chance a president can do in the midterms by taking down the world's largest state sponsor of terror and doing it unapologetically. Joe Biden didn't do anything like that. They would have never had the balls to do something like this. But Donald Trump did it. So I don't care about his approval rating or his popularity or whatever, because it's going to come up because we're kicking Iran's. But here's the good news. Consumer confidence is up, which generally means you got more money. We just got the latest read on consumer confidence. Lydia, the number, please.
- [17:57]
Brigitte Gabriel
Stuart, we're coming in at 91.8. The expectation was 88. So this is an upbeat that's like almost 4 read, higher than what we were expected and also higher than last month's read, which is 91.9, 99.2. It seems that consumers are not as concerned about the economy as maybe what we were expecting. 91.8 more upbeat than the expected 88.
- [18:21]
Rob Carson
I know, I feel 1.8 more upbeat. Whatever that means, it's good. Mercedes Benz planning to invest $4 billion at its Tuscaloosa county plant by 2030, as the German automaker continues to build on a legacy that launched Alabama's dynamic automotive industry. Sweet home Alabama, baby. They do the GLE and the GLS SUVs and marked a production milestone of 5 million vehicles at the facility. Mercedes selected Alabama for its first U.S. plant in 1993. Then in 1997 debuted the pioneering M Class SUV that put the state's auto workers in the international spotlight. By the way, Mercedes Benz employs about 5,800 people in Louisiana or in Alabama. Sorry, I just insulted the Alabamans. And it represents an investment of $7 billion. I think it wasn't a George Bush that said that there were some jobs Americans won't do. No, you're wrong. You're absolutely wrong, Jorge. You are absolutely 1,000% wrong. So there's the good news about the economy. $17 trillion by the way, of new investment happening in the country by the way Iran is giving a flimsy excuse as flimsy as cardboard as to why it's probably gay and injured. New supreme leader Khamenei been seen. They say that the reason for his absence Republic is the observance of security considerations due to the current special circumstances. He is in full health and continuing to lead the country. Sure, you keep, you keep telling yourself that. Now I'm saying he's most probably dead. And so Jim Gossett actually on the Rob Carson show, Khomeini, where are you? Could it be true that you've completely vanished? Yeah, he's dead. You've become a ghost. Maybe your toast perhaps you have been banished. Are you on the ground? You can't be found. Hey, that's not my department. Can't get you on the phone. Are you alone or in some guy's apartment? Could be actually a leader. I read needs but Khomeini, not one person has seen you. What else is new? Are you in hiding or did someone stage a palace? Where are you? Scooby Doo? Have a seat of hide your hair. We are not aware of your current location. Is bu gone. Maybe he's on a permanent vacation. There you go. Scooby Doo, where are you? I do a pretty good shaggy.

Donald Trump
I would say that within two weeks, maybe two weeks, maybe three, we're hitting them very hard. Last night we knocked out tremendous amounts of missile making facilities. We, as you probably read or wrote, we knocked out excuse me, pardon me,
- [23:05]
Marco Rubio
if you're interrupting will be the US Will be gone or done with the
- [23:07]
Donald Trump
war, I think with two or three weeks.
- [23:09]
Rob Carson
There you go. That is the president of the United he also said yesterday that Iran has agreed to never, ever have a nuclear weapon. We will see how the governance happens. But joining us to talk about this, someone who knows a lot more about this than I do. I watch her every time she's on television. I stop everything, I stop everything to talk, to see Brigitte Gabriel, national security analyst, New York Times bestselling author and the chairman of act for America.org Brigitte, welcome to the show. How are you today?
- [23:40]
Brigitte Gabriel
Thank you, my friend. I'm delighted to be back with you again.
- [23:44]
Rob Carson
I am excited, Brigitte, because, you know, Donald Trump said that we're going to get this done in four to six weeks. The reason why he did that is because his commander said if you let us do what we do, we'll do it in four to six weeks. What do you think thus far of the operation and do you agree with the outlook for when this is going to wrap?
- [24:01]
Brigitte Gabriel
Well, you know, President Trump has done this before when he trusted the military and he let them loose on isis. And we saw the result in the first, in his first term in 2017, they were able to take care of business within two weeks with Iran. Obviously, Iran is a big monster. It is Goliath. And what we have been able to accomplish is just phenomenal. I mean, you know, I tell people all the time, remember World War II took four years. Here we have been able to accomplish in four weeks 90% of our objective. So I believe we will finish the war and we will finish it soon. We have already, already destroyed pretty much most of their capabilities. They've got a few leftover missiles they're trying to launch, but we will not, President Trump will not finish this job one day too early. He will make sure that when we say it is done, he means it is done and the threat has been removed. And so I have confidence in him. I trust his ability. I trust his judgment, his privy to information that you and I do not have, as well as the military leaders. And that's all I can say, is thank God we have President Trump in office.
- [25:15]
Rob Carson
Well, I think. And this is. Isn't it interesting? This is Easter week. This is Passover week. This is a holy week for many people. I said that Donald Trump's election would result in the. In the spread of freedom and patriotism and faith around the world. And Iran has run roughshod over the world for 47 years. And this is just part of the equation. If you. I mean, just a couple of years ago, could you have imagined such a resounding defeat of one of the most powerful militaries in the world as far as missile technology is concerned? Could you have imagined that we could do it so quickly with so few casualties, fewer casualties than the United States loses during training missions in a major conflict to bring down this military regime?
- [26:04]
Brigitte Gabriel
Well, having President Trump is why we are able to do it. I could not have imagined it under any other president because we knew before him, for the last 47 years, it didn't matter whether we had a Republican or a Democrat in office. And that started with George Bush, the first one, and then Clinton, and then George Bush, the son, and then we had Obama. And then after Obama, thank God, President Trump came and he started putting the pressure on Iran. And then, of course, Biden came. So I knew we can do it under President Trump. But I did not have any faith in any other president other than President Trump. And it didn't matter whether they were Republicans or Democrats. I have faith in the American military. I have faith in our superpower. I have faith in what our military is able to execute. As long as they have a leader who unleashes the shackles from around their ankles and tells them, go do what you have been trained to do and what the American taxpayers invested billions of dollars in you to do, exactly what we need you to do, and that is protect the United States, our military is capable. We just needed the men with the backbone to be able to stand with and support our military, to do the job that they were trained to do.
- [27:23]
Rob Carson
Where do you see the Middle east being a few years from now? Because we are seeing millennial change. We are seeing it happen because two men, Benjamin Netanyahu and Donald Trump, have done this. They are a millennial Leadership like we've never seen before. You've got the Abraham Accords that have already happened. They're going to be adding to that. You've got. You're not hearing anything from Hamas, by the way. This decapitates the tentacles of the Iran terror machine around the world. Brigitte. I mean, this is incredible.
- [27:55]
Brigitte Gabriel
This stops the money flow. Look, cars do not drive without gasoline. You have to have to put in the car in order for it to drive. And the funding that has been poured into terrorist organizations in the Middle east, whether it was Hamas, whether it was Hezbollah, whether it was the Hatties, these groups were organized because Iran was funding them. Last year alone, in 2025, Iran sent $1 billion to Hezbollah in Lebanon. One billion. This is in the middle of such economic collapse in Iran, yet they took money out of their citizens and sent it to Hezbol. So the reason why the Middle east is going to change is because we cut off the money spigot that was funding Hezbollah to build missiles, to buy missiles, to buy the tools that they used to execute their terrorist attacks and terrorize the Middle East. That's what's going to change. And I am hoping because of this change, we'll be able to see a totally different, peaceful Middle East.
- [29:00]
Rob Carson
You've been the victory. You've been the victim of terror. You have lived through this. You went through hell as a young person.
- [29:08]
Brigitte Gabriel
I went through hell as a young person. And I was actually talking to my friends in Lebanon right before I got on this call with you, because they are in southern Lebanon, in the area that now Israel is moving into, north of the Litany river, south of the Litany river, to establish the same security zone I grew up in. And so here we are, you know, 50 years later, life is playing again. The exact same, same scenarios, like we're running in a circle. But hopefully this time with the decapitation of Hezbollah, with the decapitation of Iran, the terrorist regime in Lebanon will not be able to grow and mushroom and establish a terror hub in the Middle east and give the people an opportunity to live in peace. So for me, this is personal. What we're witnessing.
- [29:54]

Oh, my God.

Brigitte Gabriel
The least.

Rob Carson
Oh, my God. I mean, think about this. Hezbollah and Hamas, who've been able to run roughshod and commit acts of terror for decades, and now they're penniless, they have no support, and Israel is moving. That must mean a lot to you that Israel is moving in. I mean, do you see yourself going back to where you suffered so much as a different country.
- [30:18]
Brigitte Gabriel
That's exactly the conversation I was having half an hour ago. I cannot wait for Israel to go in so I can actually go back home and see my home, the home that I grew up in, be able to, you know, the places, the church my father built where I grew up singing in the choir until I was 20 years old. You know, my children will never lay eyes on these places unless I am able to go back. And the only way I can do that is if Israel goes in and takes over these areas so I can go back to Lebanon through Israel in order to see the places where I grew up.

Now, Brigitte Gabriel, I want to talk to you on the other side about the leadership of Iran. Do you believe that Pahlavi is going to take over? Do you believe that the people of Iran have the wherewithal to usher in a new era of freedom in Persia? Let's talk, take a break and come back more with the Great Brigitte Gabriel. ActForAmerica.org Sign up for ActForAmerica.org and support them. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show. Hey guys, with Carson, I just got a ghost bed. Yeah, pay attention here because I've been sleeping on a foam mattress since I moved to the Washington, D.C. area, which is like sleeping on the sponge in your sink. Ghost bed doesn't build mattresses like furniture. They build engineered sleep systems. Their beds are serious health equipment. Beds designed for relief and recovery, not looks, not fluff. Your body should be healing while you sleep, not fighting for comfort. I have been sleeping past seven in the morning on my ghost bed. It's unbelievable. If you wake up stiff, you toss and turn. If you sleep hot, even reaching for a pain reliever before bed, hoping tonight will be different. That's not aging, it's your mattress talking. Another great thing I love about Ghostbed, you get 101 nights to try it at home. If you don't like the difference, you can send it back risk free. Ghostbed is offering my audience their lowest prices of the season plus an extra 10% off. Go to Ghostbed.com Carson use promo code Carson. That's Ghostbed.com Carson promo code Carson. You are going to love your new ghost bed.

Donald Trump
Remember, it all starts with they cannot have a nuclear weapon. Just, you know, I said yesterday, what did they said? What are the top 10? I said, well, number one, two and three is they can't have a nuclear weapon and they're not going to have a nuclear weapon. And we're talking about that. I don't want to say in advance, but they've agreed they will never have a nuclear weapon.
- [32:55]
Rob Carson
Now, this kind of, I kind of wonder. Brigitte Gabriel of Act for America.org you can't trust the mullus, which makes me kind of hope, obviously, that Donald Trump is saying they aren't the people we're negotiating with anymore. What are your thoughts about who's coming into power? Pahlavi was at cpac. There was a massive rally of, of Iranians and their supporters in the Washington, D.C. that was not covered media. What do you suppose is going to happen in the, in the power of ACT that's left after the ayatollahs are gone?
- [33:31]
Brigitte Gabriel
Well, I am sure that President Trump and his leadership team, as well as the Israelis, I'm sure they have coordinated to make sure that the day after there will not be a power vacuum. And I believe the meeting between President Trump and Netanyahu, when Netanyahu came to the White House right before they did the attack, a few days before the attack, that meeting, and I think you and I have talked about it back then, that meeting was about the day after, not whether or not they're going to attack Iran. But I am sure they are working within their channels with whoever they're negotiating with about who's going to be able to take over the government and basically give power to the Iranian people. Obviously, we decimated the tier structure, the power structure under the mullahs, which was created with the mullahs at this point. I'm sure they're going to have an interim government. Maybe Pahlavi will be the interim president working with the people in Iran until the Iranians choose somebody from the country who's been living in the country for a long time. Because remember, a lot of people inside Iran are not really familiar with him. A lot of the Iranians in Diaspora support him.
- [34:37]
Rob Carson
They know the young people.
- [34:39]
Brigitte Gabriel
They know who he is, but at least they trust him. And I believe he will be probably the interim because America trusts him. He's worked with President Trump. He's here on our side. He's been to Mar a Lago. I'm sure they're working with him to do the, to be basically the transitional team until they get somebody there stabilized and the country stabilized where they can have an election.
- [35:02]
Rob Carson
Yeah. And there are other groups who are helping out as well. Also. I've been kind of, I'm sorry, I probably shouldn't. But I'm watching the IRCG troops being attacked by People working with Israeli intelligence, the. Whatever, that group is being taken out by the people. Do you suppose it sounds like they are not able to obviously run roughshod, drive around town, murder people attempting to protest like they did, 35,000 of them? Do you suppose that that structure is going to be gutted, those secret police?
- [35:40]
Brigitte Gabriel
Oh, absolutely. The people of Iran despise the secret police. I mean, they are the enforcers of the law. The besieged, they hate them. And so that will be the first thing to go because basically they were the ones harassing the people on the ground. 400,000 Basij members were on the streets of Iran harassing the people, beating the people, enforcing the religious law, the morality law, and the Iranians are completely over it. If there is one organization in Iran that the population will revolt against, it's going to be the Basij.
- [36:14]
Rob Carson
As a woman, it's gotta be pretty amazing. And I'm very, very disappointed but not surprised in the left and Democrats that they can't celebrate celebrated another generation of women in Iran no longer having to live in bondage, in slavery, in fear, and the possibility that young Iranian girls can live to their potential, it's overwhelming. How does it make you feel?
- [36:40]
Brigitte Gabriel
Well, it's so wonderful to see and know that the women in Iran are going to have the ability to live freely, to be able to let their hair fly in the wind, to be able to breathe, live however they want to live. I am not the least surprised at the reaction of the feminist movement and the leftist woman organization in America because they have shown their true colors. They side with anybody that hates Trump and hates Israel, period. If Trump is saving the fish, the left is going to be upset that the sharks do not have enough fish to eat. They hate him. They're going to stand against him no matter what he does.
- [37:24]
Rob Carson
You know, I'm more optimistic, Brigitte. I'm more optimistic for Iran than I am for Great Britain and France right now. I mean, really, honestly. Or New York City, for God's sake. Or New York City.
- [37:36]
Brigitte Gabriel
I agree with you because we are seeing the Islamist side with the wrong people on the wrong side instead of standing with the Iranian people, even though they are Muslims. I mean, it was. It is unbelievable to see that the Arabic countries, you know, all the Arabic blocs, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, Bahrain, the Arab Emirates, are standing shoulder to shoulder with America and Israel against Iran and speaking up against Iran.
- [38:03]
Rob Carson
I love it.
- [38:04]
Brigitte Gabriel
Yet you've got Belgium, the uk, France, basically siding with the mullahs. It's unbelievable that we would get to that day.
- [38:11]
Rob Carson
Well, I love the fact that they're talking about just staying to hell with NATO because they're fair weather friends and we're tired of bailing them out. And I am an optim about the future of the world, particularly the Middle East. Brigitte Gabriel, as always, you are awesome.

Rob Carson
Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson show. It is a Rob Carson show. Brigitte Gabriel just kicks butt. Totally love her. Love her. She went through hell in Lebanon. She was buried alive. Our home. She was injured. She's one of the most powerful women I've ever known. And I look forward to the day that I meet her in person. Maybe she'll come to D.C. or maybe, maybe, maybe I'll meet her over in Lebanon. What the hell with her hubby. And we'll, we'll go out and we'll, we'll celebrate freedom. We'll celebrate faith. And the downfall of Islamism. So the dollars convertibility into Gold ended 1971. Back then it was fixed at $35 an ounce. I know, I know. Another opportunity that went by, right? You could have had it. I wasn't old enough to have $34 at the time. $35. Fast forward. Today, the US dollar has lost 85% of its purchasing power. Gold, on the other hand, has increased in value by over 12,000%. Why? Because they've been printing the hell out of money. It's made our money worth less. It's made our money worth less. That's why it now costs $420,000 for a home on average. And you pay for it for 30 years. That's what printing money did. Central banks are buying up gold. Major firms like Vanguard BlackRock hold significant positions in gold. If you're worried about investing in gold, how about learn first? How about that? How about start with education?

Donald Trump was asked about the new library he's going to build in Miami versus the Death Star Star that's over budget. The Barack Obama library in Chicago. Your son Eric posted a photo of what will be the it's pretty cool, by the way. It's a huge skyscraper. Yeah, it's going to be more than a library, by the way. Maybe a hotel.
- [41:52]
Donald Trump
Listen, well, it's a library. It's a museum, a library. It's a presidential. But I wouldn't start it till I'm out of office. No, I don't believe in building libraries or museums. It's really like the Barack Hussein Obama one in Chicago and not a good location. And it's a very unattractive building. Seriously late.
- [42:10]
Rob Carson
And it looks like that the sand crawler in the first Star wars that the droids came out of.
- [42:15]
Donald Trump
Over budget. I think you're going to see a great one here and it'll go up on time, on budget, best location.
- [42:23]
Rob Carson
I think he ought to make it into hotel and casino. I'm not kidding either, by the way. What an absolute tribute to capitalism. And who the hell goes to the library anymore? Unless you're homeless, wanting to look at porn, you know, I mean that's really about what you do. Or they've got like the last library I went to and when I lived in Kansas, they had literally a room where kids could go play video games. Really? Really. A library? Really? I got the library Alexandria in my pants. I'm talking about my phone. Ladies Anyway, last hour of the Rob Carson show on the way. Gonna talk about the library. Gonna talk about a Democrat judge saying no to the the ballroom. That's going to collapse his argument, by the way, on the other side of the break. Don't go anywhere.
