Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. National Political Mood Ahead of the State of the Union

• Trump’s Resurgence: Rob sets the stage with a recap of Trump’s comeback, detailing the legal and political battles, recent assassination attempts, and media portrayal. He frames Trump's perseverance as fueling a patriotic resurgence.

  • “Donald Trump’s ascendancy after numerous political persecutions...and the Democrat Party is in free fall.” [02:23]

• Resurgence of Patriotism: Carson highlights moments of national pride, such as the US men's and women’s hockey wins, contrasted with what he calls the left’s negativity and confusion.

2. Critiquing the Left: “Trump Derangement Syndrome”

• Viral Liberal Meltdown: Rob introduces a recurring segment mocking dramatic reactions from Trump critics, playing a recording from a “crazy cat lady of the day.” Both empathetic and biting, he attributes her distress to years of liberal media conditioning.

  • Notable quote:
    • “This is mania. This is mania. All right...This is the result.” [06:23]
    • “I want to go outside right now, and I want to kick the air, and...pluck the wasps off the trees and shove them into my eyes until I bleed. But I can’t do any of that...If people see, they’re gonna think I’m crazy, and I’m not crazy.” [06:51, Democrat Supporter]

• Democratic Lawmaker’s Outburst:

  • “I’d rather stick forks in my eyes than be here tonight to listen to Donald Trump.” [08:16, Rep. Angie Craig]

• Rob’s Take:

  • “That. This isn’t funny. This is mania. This is the result of ten years of a drumbeat not only by national media, but by the Democrat Party and by academia.” [08:20]

3. Immigration & Angel Families

• Ignored Angel Families Event: Rob criticizes mainstream media (CNN, MSNBC) for not covering Trump’s White House event with families of Americans killed by illegal immigrants (“angel families”).

  • “They don’t want to admit the policies that they supported did this. They don’t want to feel any blame for it.” [11:42]

• Firsthand Testimonies:

  • Lakin Riley's mother and other angel families share personal stories of loss and gratitude for Trump’s recognition.
    • “You have fought a fight that most people would not want to have to fight...And President Trump has. You are doing a thankless job that most people just wouldn't do.” [14:24, Lakin Riley’s mother]
    • “No matter what the fake media says about you, the American people love you and we will support you all the time.” [16:25, Jody Jones]

• F.ICE Act Legislation: Rob skewers proposed New Jersey state legislation allowing lawsuits against immigration enforcement.

  • “That is your Democrat Party. This is why they will not succeed...There is a thing called karma. There is a thing called good and evil. And evil doesn't win.” [09:22]

4. The Escalating Threat from Organized Crime & Border Cartels

• Cartel Violence in Mexico: Reports from Art Del Cueto emphasize the reach and resilience of Mexican drug cartels, linking them to the U.S. border crisis and warning Americans about safety.
  • “These cartels have amassed billions of dollars...This is what they've been doing for generations after generations.” [20:06, Art Del Cueto]

5. Interview with Sen. Tommy Tuberville

His Take on the State of the Union & Democratic Strategies

• Senate Decorum:

  • “I'm looking forward to the president's speech and hope these idiots come and shut their mouth and listen and learn something because they don't want to learn anything. They want to destroy the country.” [23:14]

• On Virginia’s New Governor:

  • “Now they've got this lady that calls herself a moderate over in Virginia, this new governor...and I said, well, hell, she's a communist.” [23:56]

• Democratic Tactics:

  • “All these people 20 years ago talked about, hey, we got to have closed borders and we got to have ID to vote and all these things. Now they're just totally the opposite because somebody's paying them to be that way to run our country underground.” [25:02]

On Election Integrity & The SAVE Act

• Voter ID and Election Security:
  • “We got to have leadership in the Senate. Step up and put it on the floor and let's vote on it and find out who's for it and who's against it...The problem we have with that though, you can't just stop there because these idiots in the four years of Joe Biden gave away Social Security cards numbers, they gave away driver's license with a photo id.” [27:33]

On Democrat-Controlled States and Federalizing Elections

• “15 states in this country that are totally blue. They're going to cheat in every election. They're going to steal every taxpayer dime they can...So that's the reason we need to federalize the federal elections and make sure that every vote counts absolutely 100%.” [32:48]

Preview of Trump’s Address & America’s Mood

• On Trump’s Message:

  • “I just hope president just gets up there and looks over to Democrats, a few that's going to show up and just tell them all to go to hell. We're going to save this country and we're going to do what's right.” [33:51]

• Rising Patriotism:

  • “Can you feel the pride welling up in the country? Because I can feel it. I felt it for the last year...I think America's making a comeback, brother.” [34:41]

On Iran, Security, and Foreign Affairs

• Iran Policy:
  • “To me, something's got to be done. Whether it's...some kind of kinetic invasion, do something with their leadership. We just don't want to. He [Trump] is trying his best, but I'll tell you what, they're holding his feet to the fire...he's going to do it.” [36:46]

Ending Banter

• Rob and Tuberville connect over food and sports, ending with camaraderie and hopes for Trump’s continued leadership.

6. Open Lines: Pro-Military Callers & Iran

• A caller launches into parody (“Bomb Iran”), backing more aggressive action against Iranian leadership and recalling the Iran Hostage Crisis.
  • “Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran. Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomber and...” [39:48, caller]
• Carson concurs with the need to take strong action against Iran, referencing recent U.S./Israeli military movements.

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• Rob Carson on left-wing outrage:
  • “The left are insane. There is a mania that has infected their brains. We call it Trump Derangement Syndrome.” [04:35]
• Sen. Tuberville on Democrats’ motives:
  • “Everything they do is for failure of our country, starting with the education program, trans men and women's sports, this nonsense of DEI...just makes you sick at your stomach...” [26:12]
• Sen. Tuberville’s advice to Democrats:
  • “Get on board or get out. If you don't like this country, get into something else. Get into some other business. We're not going to change.” [33:51]
• Rob Carson on 2024’s “vibe”:
  • “2024 was about returning from nonsense to common sense. That's what I said.” [32:33]

[Angel Family Member / Speaker at Event]

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.

[Rob Carson]

This is the Rob Carson show, hour number two. And tonight of course is the second State of the Union. The President of the United States will be addressing Congress. And of course it's the 250th anniversary of the birth of the nation. And I think that there are a lot of things that are in motion that are ethereal, to be quite honest. First of all, Donald Trump's ascendancy after numerous political persecutions, a raid on Mar A Lago for trials that were based on nothing, an attempt to take his fortune, throw him in jail, two impeachments based on nothing, and FBI investigation of Russia collusion that didn't exist. All of this. And then, then, of course, two assassination attempts. Now add three, counting the one last weekend. And the Democrat Party is in free fall. They don't know what to protest. They don't know what they're protesting. They think Donald Trump's some sort of a dictator, but he's nothing he's doing is dictatorial. And the the nation is roaring back and proud to be American. The U.S. olympics Men's and women's hockey team beating Canada in overtime and bringing home the gold and a resurgence of patriotism. People crying when the national anthem is playing rather than kneeling. And all the Democrat Party can do is sit there and be and whine about it. Just be and whine about it and caterwaul and screech and you know, they'll have the next thing. It's one week. It's Pete Hegseth is a war criminal and the drug boat captains were fishermen and Elon Musk is a Nazi and signal gain and I mean, just honestly, shut the hell up. Thank you. Bottom of the hour. We got to Tommy Tuberville, Senator. This guy was the head coach of The Auburn University 1990, 2008 Head Coach, University of Mississippi, 95 to 98, Texas Tech University, 2010, 2012, University of Cincinnati. From 2013 to 2016, won five National Coach of the year awards. Now he's a senator, he's kicking butt. We're going to talk to him at the bottom of the hour. That's going to be pretty awesome when you get the angel moms meeting yesterday at the White House. Donald Trump remembering people who will would otherwise be forgotten, murdered by illegal aliens, brought into the country by Democrats. We'll get to that in a second. But you know, the Democrat Party, the left are insane. There is a mania that has infected their brains. We call it Trump Derangement Syndrome. And I'm absolutely being serious. This is not to make fun. It is just to acknowledge. Never before have we ever seen on social media white liberal Karen's showing the world how ill they are. We've had a spate of health Care givers saying that they would inject ice agents with poison. They would not treat Trump supporters in emergency rooms, threatening to kill people. Ice agents. I mean, just. It's bad enough when you have these thoughts, but when you share them on social media, that shows you're really nuts. And I've got one today. Boy, I tell you, I got. This is a crazy cat lady of the day, by the way. We're gonna do this every day. This. This one is. This one is unbelievable. I, I, And I do mean this. I hope someone in her family, maybe parents, because she's in her 20s, you could tell. I hope her parents, One of her parents sees this and goes, my God, we've got to talk, but I want you to listen to this.

[Democrat Supporter / Crazy Cat Lady]

Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Things keep happening. Things like, it's. I wake up.

[Podcast Host / Advertiser]

Oh, my God.

[Democrat Supporter / Crazy Cat Lady]

I wake up every day, and it's like one thing after another after another after another, and it just. It's never ending.

[Podcast Host / Advertiser]

It's.

[Rob Carson]

This is mania. This is mania. All right, uh, there. There is no doubt that this person has been drinking the Kool Aid of the Democrat Party, driven to a point of insanity after 10 years, probably when she was starting entertaining years, saying that Donald Trump is a Nazi. Donald Trump is a fascist. The. The. The Republican Party are, Are white supremacists. I can go on and on, and this is the result.

[Democrat Supporter / Crazy Cat Lady]

And as there's, like, just the seconds are gon. There's seconds, and then there's minutes, and then there's hours, and then there's days, and then there's weeks, and then there's months and years and lifetimes, and if reincarnation is real, let me off the ride. I don't want to do it. Unlatch the seat belt. Unlatch the seatbelt like this and let me out. And I. I feel so much, mainly anger, but just a lot of. A lot. Just everything from everyone and at all points in time, everything, everywhere, all at once, it's me. It's me. And I want to go outside right now, and I want to kick the air, and I'm gonna take the dirt from the floor and shove it in my mouth, and I'm gonna pluck the wasp off the trees and shove them into my eyes until I bleed. But I can't do any of that. I can't do any of that because, one, it'll hurt me, but two, if people see, they're gonna think I'm crazy, and I'm not crazy.

[Rob Carson]

They just.

[Democrat Supporter / Crazy Cat Lady]

They don't Understand.

[Rob Carson]

Oh, I, I, I think we're well beyond that.

[Democrat Supporter / Crazy Cat Lady]

It's like, and I want off. I want out.

[Senator Tommy Tuberville]

Oh.

[Democrat Supporter / Crazy Cat Lady]

And things are gonna keep happening. It's just, and I can't get out. So if you have an, if you have any, any answer as to when it will end, let me know in the comments below.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, let me know in the comments below. My God. Of course you've got a Democrat member of Congress, Angie Craig, who said she'd rather stick forks than her eyes than watch Donald Trump do the State of the Union.

[Caller / Guest]

Rather stick forks in my eyes than be here tonight to listen to Donald Trump.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah. Yeah. I wonder where that comes from. Way to go there, Angie. Way to go, Ange. Way to go, you, you fanatical Marxist from hell. Honestly, normally I play the crazy cat lady theme song there, but this isn't funny. That. This isn't funny. This is mania. This is the result of 10 years of a drumbeat not only by the national media, but by the Democrat Party and by academia. This is probably the product of someone who was shuttered by Covid, couldn't do anything. Probably told that if she unhappy, she should become a man. You know, honestly, this is, this has been done before in history. This is, this has been done before in history and it never ends well. I'm hoping. I know we are. I know we're turning things around. My God. I mean, really. My God. On top of everything else the Democrat Party could do. Oh.

[Podcast Host / Advertiser]

Oh.

[Rob Carson]

This is New Jersey General Assembly. Democrats have introduced legislation. Are you ready? Are you ready for this? It's entitled the fight Unlawful conduct keep individuals and Communities Empowered Act. It's the F. ICE Act. Yes. For unlawful carnal knowledge. ICE Act. That's, that's the adults here. These are the adults in the Democrat Party. The F. ICE act would establish a state level civil cause of action allowing individuals to sue over alleged violations of constitutional rights arising from federal immigration enforcement activities. All because the Democrat Party wants to keep a group of people here who they brought in over the southern border for four years, loaded them up with free stuff so they could be part of their census, to maintain their representation in Congress and to steal elections and to continue to steal from us. That is your Democrat Party. This is why they will not succeed. They will not succeed because you cannot win this way. There is a thing called karma. There is a thing called good and evil. And evil doesn't win. If it did, the entire continent of Europe would be speaking German right now. I'll tell you what, I'm just I am just. I don't even know. CNN and Ms. Now did not take President Donald Trump's National Angel Family Day ceremony at the White House on their broadcast on Monday. What it was was bringing in parents and relatives of people who have been murdered by illegal alie across the southern border because they let in 20 million of them unvetted for disease, criminality or mental illness. And they wreaked havoc on the country. Here is the President of the United States. I mean, he just sounds extreme, honestly. He sounds like a Nazi. He sounds like a white supremacist.

[Angel Family Member / Speaker at Event]

We gathered here today for a truly solemn occasion throughout this hall and joined.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, MSNBC and CNN didn't carry it because they're ashamed if they had any shame.

[Angel Family Member / Speaker at Event]

My heartbroken Americans who have lost parents, siblings, children, grandchildren.

[Rob Carson]

They don't want to admit the policies that they supported did this. They don't want to feel any, any blame for it.

[Angel Family Member / Speaker at Event]

And treasured loved ones too. The scourge of illegal immigration let in by the past administration. Millions and millions of people from jails. Millions and millions of people from countries that we don't want to know about.

[Rob Carson]

I know more families affected by the death of a loved one from fentanyl than the death of a loved one by Covid.

[Angel Family Member / Speaker at Event]

Drug dealers, murderers. 11,888 murders were allowed into our country.

[Rob Carson]

Your Democrat party releases them from jail rather than turning them over to ice. Releases murders, releases rapists, releases child molesters into the community. So ICE has to go get them

[Angel Family Member / Speaker at Event]

by the Biden administration. These are the angel families that we love that for decades our government betrayed and our media totally ignored. And I've seen it.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, and they did it yesterday as well. On the other side of the break, Lake and Riley's mom, some other angel moms as well. In a ceremony that once again was ignored by the the leftist media. I don't call it mainstream anymore because CNN and MSN Ms. Now are no longer mainstream. They don't have very many people watching them. The leftist media on the other side of the break. Let's come back and do that. This is the Rob Carson Show. One thing I would like to see

[Caller / Guest]

updated is the word homeless to the word unhoused.

[News Reporter / Commentator]

How about new?

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, that's the last four years under Joe Biden. That ridiculous woke nonsense. Fortunately, we have Donald Trump as the President of the United States doing the State of the Union tonight. I can't wait. It's gonna be a lot of fun. Make sure by the way, to watch it on Newsmax. Newsmax 2 can we call it into. Or on the Newsmax app, you get a Newsmax plus membership as affinity. And I believe Greta Von Susteren are going to be doing the play by play. Doing the play by play. So it'll be exciting. Rob Finnerty and Greta Von Susteran watching the State of the Union tonight on Newsmax. Only one place to watch it is Newsmax. Thank you very much. Lake and Riley's mom was at the White House yesterday. An event about angel moms and relatives of people who were murdered by illegal aliens. I could say that now. They said forever. We couldn't say that. But I could say it now, you see, because they're illegal and they're from another country, which makes them aliens. So there you go. Here's Lake and Riley's mom.

[Caller / Guest]

I think that a lot of people feel like that President Trump is maybe different than the version I've gotten to know. And I just can't thank you enough. You have said from the beginning, literally the day after this happened, that you would not forget about Lakin. You weren't president at that time and you have not forgotten. You have fought a fight that most people would not want to have to fight. Most people wouldn't. They would just say it's just easier not to do this. And President Trump has. You are doing a thankless job that most people just wouldn't do.

[Rob Carson]

He didn't even get noticed yesterday. CNN Ms. Now wouldn't cover this event. They don't give a rat's behind. Remember when Joe Biden didn't even know Lake and Riley's name? It's not about him. It's not about me. I'd be a winner. Not really.

[Political Commentator / Attorney General Candidate]

I.

[Rob Carson]

Here we go. What about Lake and Riley? She. Lincoln. Lincoln Riley? Yeah. Lincoln Riley. Is Lincoln Riley, an innocent young woman who was killed. Yeah. You might want to get her name right, you jerk. By an illegal. That's right. Who you let in. But how many of thousands of people being killed by legals. And you let them in. You. I mean, my God. Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow. This is Joey Jones. Jody Jones, I should say, whose brother Rocky was killed by an illegal. Talking yesterday. Invited to speak from the president. Did a little mic drop moment, if you will.

[News Reporter / Commentator]

President Trump, I want you to know

[Rob Carson]

no matter what the fake media says about you, the American people love you and we will support you all the time. I'm sick and tired of hearing these Democratic politicians stand up on these podiums and say how sorry they are for seeing these criminal illegal aliens being ripped apart from their families. Yeah, what about us? Yeah, what about the American family? What about us? We mean something too. And this man right here understands it. I gotta tell you, I, you know, I've told you this story before, how Donald Trump watches my TV show. It's called Rob Carson's what in the World. And I was fortunate enough, Chris Ruddy invited me to have dinner at Mar a Lago and I met the President and, and when I was. My mother was dying, I shared it on the end of the show and I'd say, we please pray for my mother. And then one day I said my mother passed and, and I went to her funeral and I came back on Monday morning and there was a note from Donald Trump. And it was from him. It was your mom. Bonnie was. Must have been an amazing woman. She raised an amazing son. And you know, he remembers things like this. He remembers things like this, and that's what makes him extraordinary. And this is why the Democrats are so wrong about everything. Here's a couple of other ang where we are.

[Caller / Guest]

Yesterday, Harvey was shot in the chest and killed my husband. Javier Senior was shot in the back. They just kept shooting. You could hear the bullets just whizzing past you.

[Rob Carson]

Those were. That's

[Caller / Guest]

yet Senior return fire with this weapon. And I grabbed the AR that Harvey had attempted to defend us with and I returned fire as well. Had we not fired back, they would have killed everyone there, including the children. And he. Tears rolled down my face as I told him the story of how our youngest son, Joshua was brutally beaten, tortured, strangled to death and his body set on fire. He never ever looked away from my pain. He looked me straight in the eye and he said, I will never forget the story of your sweet son. And I will never give up fighting for the American family.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, he's a Nazi. He is a white supremacist. Actually. He's the first president we've had in Washington D.C. who gave a rats behind about us in a very long time. Is what it really is. What it really is, I got to tell you. And of course the Democrats ignored it yesterday. Americans hunkering down in Mexico. I would not go to Mexico right now if I were you. No siree Bob. And I've never felt terribly secure in Mexico. I went twice a couple years ago for my nephew's wedding and for another trip to meet some friends. But I would definitely reconsider. But Americans are hunkering down. This is Art Del Cueto talking about the killing of one of the big drug lords down there. El Cueto I believe, was the name. And how big these cartels are and how Mexico better crack down on this or we're gonna have to do something about it.

[News Reporter / Commentator]

Look, they're going to continue. These individuals, they have a certain way that they operate. The minute that the, the mentor was killed, somebody else took his place. There's a name already coming up.

[Rob Carson]

Where'd they get all their money, by the way? Drugs and, and trafficking children and women.

[News Reporter / Commentator]

Abraham. Abraham.

[Rob Carson]

Across the open border. Joe Biden.

[News Reporter / Commentator]

I know is what they're saying. He goes by the name El Yoruba, which translates to the yogurt of all names. I don't know if that strikes a lot of fear, but obviously these individuals are ruthless, regardless of what nickname they have. And when one goes down, the other one's ready to take his place. He sent out a video throughout the communities in Mexico. This is something that people need to understand. These cartels have amassed billions of dollars. This is what they've been doing for generations after generations. It's not, they don't retire and then have somebody else take their place. These individuals are, it's a long line within the family. They've been doing this for a long time. My big concern is, and I've been in contact with some US citizens that are in Mexico right now. They haven't been able to leave Guadalajara. The flights have been grounded. What I'm hearing is they will be grounded for the next three days.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, again, I wouldn't, I wouldn't be going to Mexico anytime soon. And it's about time Mexico got his it's BLEEP together. They've been a sucker fish on America for a very long time. And I'm hoping that this will effectively hinder travel and commerce from Mexico until they get their stuff together and take down these cartels. And hopefully we'll send in some helicopters with Jesse Ventura and Arnold Schwarzenegger and you know, and take them out. You know, that'd be kind of good. Paint some targets. Boom. Let's take a break and come back. Senator Tommy Tuberville joins us next. Don't go anywhere foreign. Hey guys, it's Carson for Relief Factor. You know, one of the most rewarding parts of sharing Relief Factor with you is all the real stories like Sandra's. She tells us. I'd been hearing about Relief Factor on the radio for a couple of years. Finally decided to try it because nothing else has helped my back pain. With the three week quick start, I went for it. Now I feel like a new person. Those are Sandra's own words. And it's just so gratifying to hear here. I've experienced that kind of relief myself. And knowing folks like Sandra out there are feeling better makes it all worth it. Try it for yourself with a three week quick start. See how relief factor could be a game changer too. Call 804 RELIEF. That's 804 RELIEF. Or go to relieffactor.com that's relieffactor.com how will it feel to be out of pain?

[Podcast Host / Advertiser]

As for tomorrow night, you've given Democratic members the option to skip the event

[Rob Carson]

if they want to.

[Podcast Host / Advertiser]

For those who choose to attend, how would you like to see them behave?

[News Reporter / Commentator]

Well, listen, it's my expectation that members

[Podcast Host / Advertiser]

who choose to attend will be there in silent defiance. Of course. Skeptical.

[Rob Carson]

I think it's a pretty good deal, man. The Democrat Party convince themselves that they're going to sit there in silence or not attend. I don't think you could ask for something better than that. I mean, if you were praying to God what could happen at the State of the Union, that would be amazing. The Democrats sitting there and shutting their damn mouths are not showing up is a pretty darn good option. Senator Tommy Tuberville from the great state of Alabama, the Newsmax hotline. How are you on this glorious Tuesday, sir?

[Senator Tommy Tuberville]

I'm excited about tonight. I'm looking forward to the president's speech and hope these idiots come and shut their mouth and listen and learn something because they don't want to learn anything. They want to destroy the country. They don't want to build our country back after that devastating four years of Joe Biden.

[Rob Carson]

I know. And they've been throwing a temper tantrum for a decade, but they've really put it on steroids. Every week there's something new. One week it's, you know, Pete Hegseth is a war criminal. Elon, Elon Musk is a Nazi. Donald Trump is a king. And honestly, they're just a bunch of petulant toddlers. Maybe you should consider passing legislation to create a daycare center on Capitol Hill for the Democrats.

[Senator Tommy Tuberville]

Well, well, they could put, we could put a daycare center in for them. If they ran it, though, they'd steal all the money like they did up in Minneapolis. But it's a, you can't make it up what these people try to do. And, and now they've got this lady that calls herself a moderate over in Virginia, this new governor, and she's going to give the rebuttal. And they asked me what I thought about and I said well, hell, she's a communist.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah. Senator, I just moved to Virginia six months ago. I live in Northern Virginia. I didn't want to live in Maryland. I lived in Maryland for a dozen years, moved to Kansas City, moved back here, and I thought, okay, well, here we go. I'm in Virginia at least. And then this woman lied about who she was, the party in power there, lied about who they were, got her in office, and then unveiled essentially a communist platform about as left of center as Zoran Mandami. Do you, do you think that's fair? To be able to lie about who, what you are, to campaign as a moderate and then unveil all this bat guano lunacy that you never, you never told anybody you planned on doing? You think that's fair?

[Senator Tommy Tuberville]

Yeah. No, it's not fair. And the people should have her impeached. I mean, you can't, you can't do what she's doing after running the campaign that she ran. Absolutely. Because that's what the Democrats do now. They're great at lying. They'll look you straight in the face and lie about something. Look at Schumer and Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. All these people 20 years ago talked about, hey, we got to have closed borders and we got to have ID to vote and all these things. Now they're just totally opposite because somebody's paying them to be that way to run our country underground. It's, it's absolutely amazing.

[Rob Carson]

It is remarkable. The Democrat Party, I like to say, are intellectually and morally bankrupt. And now I don't recall ever hearing in the last few years of the Democrat Party saying, here's what they wanted to do to make the country better. You know, they lied about green energy, new deal, all that crap. They lied about increasing the size of the government for Covid and then looting it for the last few years. But what have they said that, oh, yeah, we can wanna do this to make things better. It's all, we are just being opposite of Donald Trump. No matter how good what Donald Trump is doing.

[Senator Tommy Tuberville]

Open borders, raise taxes, take in the third world country people so they can turn our country into third world country. That's exactly what they're thinking. That's exactly what they're doing. These people can't continue to come. President Trump's trying to slow it down. He's got the borders closed. I mean, they have, as you just said, they have no plan for any kind of success. Everything they do is for failure of our country, starting with the education program, trans men and women's sports this nonsense of DEI social justice. It just makes you sick at your stomach to see what they've done. And all it is is a replica of Europe. And surely to goodness they can learn from what Europe has done, which is everything they've done is wrong.

[Rob Carson]

They never will. They never will. They never will because they always forget. They don't learn from history. They think that, you know, communism and socialism left 100 million people in body pits, but it was because they didn't do it the right way. I mean, honestly, it is utterly, utterly ridiculous. What about this SAVE act, sir? You've got 83% of the American public. One should have show an ID. You got the Democrat party insulting black people and women saying that ID is impossible. What's the progress on this in the Senate?

[Senator Tommy Tuberville]

We got to have leadership in the Senate. Step up and put it on the floor and let's vote on it and find out who's for it and who's against it. Because as you said, 80%, 83% of the American people want it. I think somewhere around 70% of the Democrats across the country want photo ID. The problem we have with that though, you can't just stop there because these idiots in the four years of Joe Biden gave away Social Security cards numbers, they gave away driver's license with a photo id. And so we have to go above and beyond that. We have to secure our election. We have to secure the sites, we have to, to have no harvest balloting. We have to do things that make sure that our every vote that comes in there is duplicated and counted and where we can have a recording of it. Get away, get away from the ding dong machines that were controlled by third world countries. Every election has been fixed. President Trump, he just out outscored him in the last election. 77 million people, they couldn't cheat that much. And of course they gave Joe Biden 81 million. That poor man didn't get 50 million. And it just, it's just absolute, it's an insult to the American people that we allow this to happen.

[Rob Carson]

What do you suppose is gonna happen with the captured ballots in Fulton county and all of this other nonsense being exposed with regard to the 2020 election? Everybody wants us to move on. I don't want to move on because my vote was stolen. My vote was stolen, Senator. Sacred thing that I could imagine people have died for. My vote was stolen. I want people to be held accountable for it, sir.

[Senator Tommy Tuberville]

Yeah, I totally agree with you. When I go throughout the state of Alabama, they want two things a border closed. And they want their vote to count and they want to know it counted. And we're a much smarter country than what the Democrats play out. You know, they want to dumb the country down because they want to be able to control the people in this country. They want education to be bad. They want everybody to be on some kind of government check. And the American taxpayers that built this country want just the opposite. And that's the reason they're letting these people in. You know that in President Trump's election, he got a lot of minorities to vote, black minorities for him. He got a lot of the unions to vote for him. He got a lot of the middle class to vote for him. So now their new girlfriend is the illegal immigrant. And if they can't get them to vote, they know they are in bad trouble. So that's the reason they're fighting ICE Every step of the way they've tried to fight. Everybody can stay here trying to bring in more illegals, more Muslims, more people are going to try to destroy our country, but they will vote for the Democrats.

[Rob Carson]

Senator, I know you're a busy man. Is there any way you could hold through the brick and we can continue the conversation on the other side? I appreciate you. I appreciate you so much.

[Political Commentator / Attorney General Candidate]

So now the question is will the majority leader put it on the floor? He should. And will he force them to do their job, leave the nursing home, put the jello away, go down to the floor of the Senate and actually do their job and speak? That's all we're asking to do, by the way. We're not asking for a change in the rules. We could have that debate. We're not even asking for that right now. We're literally just saying go to the Senate floor and make your case, argue, make them do a real filibuster. Make them take Mr. Smith back to Washington again. And that I think will illuminate for the American people, people how out of touch Democrats are. And by the way, we're confident in this legislation. Look, I'm running to be attorney general. It's common sense and that's why the American people support it.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah. And 2024 was about returning from nonsense to common sense. That's what I said. Senator Tommy Tuberville from the great state of Alabama on the, on the phone with us. Why the holdups from people like Mitch McConnell and John Thune. Why is, why is this?

[Senator Tommy Tuberville]

Well, most of them believe in tradition. And as I tell them, listen, we don't work for the Senate. We work for the American people. If something needs to change to make this country better, so be it. Now the problem we have is we have 15 states in this country that are totally blue. They're going to cheat in every election. They're going to steal every taxpayer dime they can. They're going to do everything possible to bring this country to a third world country, bring in illegal immigrants. And so you're never going to get any, any kind of organization from their elections in those 15 states. So it's over. So we got 35 states that we have to win over to get a president back in into office again. And if we don't do it, we're going to continue to lose states every year. So that's the reason we need to federalize the federal elections and make sure that every vote counts absolutely 100%.

[Rob Carson]

So the state of the Union tonight, this should be pretty good. What are you expecting the president to share tonight? Obviously the list of successes has been been pretty remarkable when you look at this past year.

[Senator Tommy Tuberville]

Oh yeah, yeah. I just hope president just gets up there and looks over to Democrats a few that's going to show up and just tell them all go to hell. We're going to save this country and we're going to do what's right and we're going to quit and listen to this nonsense about open borders and about how our military is too tough or law enforcement is too tough. The American people deserve the best country on the face of earth. It is that to a certain degree. But they are trying to bring it a notch or two below where it has been and they want to continue that downward fall. So I hope the president, he'll get up there, obviously talk about his successes, but he needs to look them in the eye and say, listen, get on board or get out. If you don't like this country, get into something else. Get into some other business. We're not going to change. We're going to run this country the way the American people want to run it. The taxpayers and the federal government needs

[Political Commentator / Attorney General Candidate]

to get out of the way.

[Rob Carson]

Can you feel the pride welling up in the country? Because I can feel it. I felt it for the last year and I said that our Donald Trump being elected after throwing everything at him was a reaction to the evil that they had spread. And you know, with the win, the U.S. olympic hockey teams and the men's hockey team going to be there tonight, honestly, I say to ignore the damn Democrats. They're nothing but bratty, spoiled, broken, awful people and honestly, leave them in our dust. I like to say this year we need to overwhelm the left with joy and patriotism. And I think that is really happening. I think America's making a comeback, brother.

[Senator Tommy Tuberville]

Exactly. They can't do anything on their own. There's no leadership whatsoever. They're followers. They want to go by this socialist book of communism and they want to bring us all down because they feel like they can continue to steal everything they possibly can and do everything they can to stay in power. That's their total objective. Their objective is not to make the country better, it's to to make them better, them more powerful to where they can make all the decisions. And again, President Trump has tried his dangerous to get people on board on the Democrat side. Listen, we're trying to help the whole country. We're trying to help blue states as well as the red states, but they want nothing to do with it. They hate him. They can't stand him. He's for a free society. And again, all they want to do is fall in the footsteps steps of Europe and these woke countries. And President Trump wants us. He has finally said enough's enough, Western hemisphere, we're going to protect you. Now we've got Canada that's lost their damn mind. And we've got Mexico that's going to be burning if they don't ask for more help. Well, we can go down there and help them. We get any American people killed, I guarantee you President Trump is head south. Well, brother, and stood.

[Rob Carson]

You think something is going to happen to Iran here pretty soon? It sounds like the chess pieces have been moved into place. And I think it's an ideal opportunity after 47 years to take down the Ayatollah. They've caused so much death and destruction and terror in the world. What do you think?

[Senator Tommy Tuberville]

Yeah, he's trying to do everything he can to get him to agree with something. The problem is, and I've even told the President this, the problem is any deal that they do, all they're going to do is they're going, the sanctions will lift, they will become a rich country again. They will continue to push back on the people that actually want to free Iran and they're going to build the power back again. There's no way we can do that. To me, something's got to be done. Whether it's, whether it's physical, some kind of kinetic invasion, do something with their leadership. We just don't want to. You know, he is trying to do everything he can possible to not go in there again. He's trying his best, but I'll tell you what, they're holding his feet to the fire. And this is one guy, if he tells you he's going to do something, something, get ready, he's going to do it. So they better do some kind of deal that's going to work for the people of Iran and work for people all over the world, but I just, I gotta have my doubts.

[Rob Carson]

Well, I. To wrap things up, I want to mention, you know, your, your prestigious career as a, as a football coach, and I didn't realize you were a University of Cincinnati. Used to live in Cincinnati. Love me some Cincinnati. You a Skyline Chili fan?

[Senator Tommy Tuberville]

Skyline Chili, Yeah. Graters. Ice cream Barbecue. Trying to think of the name of the barbecue place there, down there on the river.

[Rob Carson]

Montgomery Inn. It's pretty good.

[Senator Tommy Tuberville]

I had my radio show there. They have several locations, but.

[Rob Carson]

Ain't as good as Kansas City. Ain't as good as Kansas City where I came from. What do you think of that Indiana team winning this year? That was something else, huh?

[Senator Tommy Tuberville]

That was just unbelievable. That's how things have changed when college sports, you know, with all the money flying around, but I'm glad to see it happen. Indiana was, they had for years wanted to be successful. And they went from the bottom to the top very quickly. And I'm proud of what those kids did absolutely 100%.

[Rob Carson]

Well Senator, I appreciate your time today. God bless you. Continue the good work. I know good things are going to happen in our 250th year and I'm glad you're in D.C. fighting for us, sir.

[Senator Tommy Tuberville]

Thank you. God bless you too man.

[Rob Carson]

Too. I appreciate you. By the way, if you guys want to check out his he's at Tuberville. Tuberville I should say.senate.gov or coach TommyTuberville on Twitter. What an honor to have him on the take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show. This is not an EV and it never will be. Although I've been kind of seeing these new hybrid trucks. They're coming Dodge is coming out with and I believe they're going to make the scout, the international scout and they'll get like 700 miles on a, on a charge and a filler. I think it's a plug in hybrid kind of thing. So I got no problem with, with hybrid complete electric though is is a waste because right now you, most of the power we get is from is from you know, coal fired plants or a natural gas and you're kind of just adding a middleman there. So there's that. I do believe we have a Tyreek in Ellicott City, Maryland on the phone. Hello T Reek, how you doing my friend?

[Caller / Pro-Military Caller]

Hi. I wanted to tell you bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran. Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomber and bomber and into the sand bomber and we'll be rocking in a rolling, rocking in a bombing bomb, ram bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb.

[Rob Carson]

Very nice.

[Caller / Pro-Military Caller]

International criminals. I have not heard once in the last month that anyone has recalled. They had our diplomats from the embassy in Tehran for 444 days until Reagan took office. They're entitled to be paid back for

[Rob Carson]

that act and all the murder they've caused and all the other mayhem and all the terror and whatnot. They need to be taken down. They need to be taken down. We need to bomb the tracks to Auschwitz for God's sake.

[Caller / Pro-Military Caller]

And this is the time to do it. They're never going to be weaker than they are now. They've got a water crisis, they've got a monetary crisis. Obviously their defensive radars have been destroyed by the Israelis. They're never going to be weaker than now.

[Rob Carson]

They have so fewer single female goats over there. That's another thing. Very few single female goats over there. So they're really hurting.

[Caller / Pro-Military Caller]

That's what, that's what Yasser Arafat said to President Clinton. He said to President Clinton. A piece of advice, Mr. Clinton. Goats don't talk.

[Podcast Host / Advertiser]

All right.

[Rob Carson]

Thanks for the call, man. Appreciate it. Israel. Benjamin Netanyahu, born Monday. Iran would face a force they could not even imagine. His remarks came as Boeing KC135 fueling aircraft, C17 Globemaster transportation planes were documented earlier in the day at Ben Gurion Airport. At least two refuelers reportedly arrived from an air base in Qatar. You got the USS Gerald R. Ford, the world's largest aircraft carrier seen near crete. More than 200 U.S. air fighters now positioned across the Middle East. Something's happening. Something is happening. 85 aerial refueling tankers, more than 170 cargo aircraft have surged in the region since mid February, marking the largest U.S. american naval and air power in the Middle east since the Iraq war. And I am hoping and praying that. And I have a feeling the president is being very deliberate about this because he wants to make sure that we get in and get out and take the B words down and take down the Ayatollah and let the people of Persia walk free for the first time in 47 years, since a year. A year further than the US men's hockey team won the gold. 1979. The Ayatollah, 1980. The men's hockey team is starting to make history again. Let's take a break and come back last hour. The Rob Carson shows right ahead. Don't go anywhere.
