Episode Overview

This episode, titled "Shake Your Menorah While the Keystone Cops Panic", delivers Rob Carson’s trademark blend of political satire and pointed commentary. The main focus is a scathing deconstruction of law enforcement's response to the recent Brown University shooting, with additional exploration of the cultural and political implications, especially in regards to DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) policies. Humorous musical parodies and a spirited discussion on Hispanic voter dynamics with Chris Salcedo lighten the tone. Throughout, Carson critiques progressive governance, media double standards, and what he perceives as the ineptitude of liberal institutions.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Satire & Showmanship: Kicking Off Christmas Week

• [00:22–02:09]
  • Rob introduces the show with holiday music and witty parody (“These Are My Favorite Conservative Things” by Jim Gossett), using humor to frame current political events.
  • Quote [01:09, Jim Gossett]:
    “Reducing spending, securing the border, restoring faith in law and order...These are my favorite conservative claims.”
• Carson plugs his own TV special and acknowledges some upcoming time off, blending self-deprecating humor with program updates.

2. Brown University Shooting: "Keystone Cops" and DEI-Centric Policing

Law Enforcement’s Confused Response

• [03:05–12:49]
  • Only 0.8% of Brown students identify as conservative, underscoring ideological homogeneity on campus ([03:15]).
  • Carson and guest Rob Finnerty excoriate Providence police for their lack of progress and confusing communication.
  • Quote [05:22, Rob Finnerty]:
    “This is now beyond parody...the investigation is being run by people more concerned with DEI than with finding the killer.”
  • The semantics of calling a suspect “in custody” vs. “detained” are lampooned as emblematic of misplaced priorities ([06:05–06:30]).
  • Tensions rise as officials dodge questions about a possible Islamic terrorism motive, and fail to disclose what the shooter reportedly yelled.
  • Quote [08:01, Rob Finnerty]:
    “The woke mayor...and the DEI police chief don’t want to offend anybody—more comfortable risking the lives of more innocent people.”

Alleged Targeting of Conservative Student

• Reports circulate that Ella Cook, a leading campus Republican, was specifically targeted ([09:31, Mark Halperin]). Carson and Halperin speculate this is being hushed due to campus politics.

The Missing Profile, Muddled Motives, and Official Frustration

• [10:31–12:22]
  • Mysteriously, a pro-Palestinian activist’s Brown University profile vanishes; officials cite “caution,” but Carson calls it possible evidence cover-up.

Cultural Critique: The Limits of “Emoting”

• [13:13–14:41]
  • Providence’s Mayor Smiley focuses on community healing and emotional response, which Rob derides as pointless while the suspect is still at large.
  • Quote [13:40, Rob Carson]:
    “I don’t think it’s as personal as the two victims’ families feel that it’s personal...who cares?”
  • Quote [14:27, Rob Carson]:
    “Oh, you had a candlelight vigil. That’ll accomplish much as the killer is on the loose.”

Suppression and Narrative Management

• [15:13–16:06]
  • Authorities’ refusal to engage with reports of the shooter shouting "Allahu Akbar" is linked to DEI-driven narrative control.
  • Free Palestine student celebrations of the victim’s death spark further outrage from Carson.

Forensic Failures & Opportunities Missed

• [16:30–17:23]
  • John Deptro highlights procedural failures allowing the suspect to possibly escape, with snow erasing forensic evidence.

---

3. Gold, Inflation, and Prepper Paranoia...with a Wink

• [17:23–21:24]
  • Carson segues into gold’s rising value as a metaphor for societal instability; playful plugs for gold dealers and Christmas gifting are peppered with darkly comic observations.

---

4. Interview: Chris Salcedo on Hispanic Voters and Border Politics

• [21:24–33:41]
  • Chris Salcedo joins for a passionate discussion on shifting Latino allegiances toward conservatism.
  • Salcedo lambasts the Democratic Party over border policy, linking it to the endangerment and exploitation of Hispanic children.
  • Quote [23:14, Chris Salcedo]:
    “Our government turned into pimps under Beijing Biden...selling children into sex slavery. Many Latinos said, ‘No, not in my name.’”
  • Discussion of Trump’s appeal to Hispanic voters, and skepticism of media narratives about mass Latino defections.
    • Carson accuses pollsters of shaping rather than reflecting public opinion ([26:57]).
    • Quote [26:01, Chris Salcedo]:
      “If the Republicans aren’t careful to show the results...that could become something more ingrained.”
  • The pair mock media fixation on Trump’s online “truths” and alleged crumbling support, instead arguing his base is steadfast.

On Media & Double Standards

• [29:28–31:45]
  • Carson and Salcedo dissect the media’s selective outrage, contrasting the left’s vilification of conservative figures with their own “celebrations of violence.”
  • Quote [31:11, Chris Salcedo]:
    “To call it celebrating the death of Rob Reiner...that’s not celebrating anything.”
  • They discuss left-wing personalities (Keith Olbermann, Kathy Griffin), branding them mentally unhinged for their extremist rhetoric.

Closing Thoughts: Culture, "80-20 Issues," Assimilation, and Exasperation with Anti-Americanism

• [32:55–34:53]
  • Carson notes a broad coalition (the “80%”) wants to save America, while the rest should “be deported.” He and Salcedo vent about anti-American immigrants, referencing viral social media.
  • Quote [33:52, Chris Salcedo]:
    “Not only do they hate America, not only are they racists...but they’re also vile and vulgar.”
  • Carson: “We’re at it. We’re done with radical Islam. We are done with it...The left exposes its flank so we can kick its ass.”

Holiday Camaraderie

• [35:25–36:34]
  • Warm holiday sentiments close the Salcedo segment, with mutual admiration (and playful threats on political apostasy).

---

5. Hanukkah Parody & The Fight Against Radical Islam

• [36:54–37:52]
  • Gossett and Carson perform “Shake Your Menorah”—a lighthearted yet assertive musical parody urging proud support for Israel and defiance toward Hamas.
  • Quote [36:54, Jim Gossett]:
    “Shake, shake, shake your menorah...Show all the haters like AOC, don’t be afraid, you squad love the enemy.”
  • Carson asserts: “We got a battle with radical Islam and...it’s time to beat their rear ends to hell. How’s that sound? Yeah, it’s about dang time.”

---

6. Media Censorship, NewsGuard, and Conservative Blacklisting

• [37:52–40:14]
  • Carson praises Congressional moves to block military advertising from using left-leaning “media monitors” like NewsGuard, which he claims unfairly blacklist conservative media.
  • Quote [39:46, Rob Carson]:
    “Why doesn’t Jeep advertise on Newsmax? Because they’re afraid...They’ve made it impossible to get advertisers and it’s ridiculous.”
  • Victories against censorship are framed as a win for free expression and conservative platforms.

Summary Style & Flow

The episode is high-energy, chatty, and biting—full of irreverence, parody, and unapologetically conservative invective. Carson and his guests oscillate from gallows humor to serious allegations with ease, using both music and rapid-fire commentary to keep the audience engaged. Even the most serious news is offered with a dose of satirical skepticism, and even criticism is delivered with a certain mischievous glee.

[Jim Gossett]

Jim Gossett, People winning and winning and never losing. Results that drive Nancy Pelosi to boozing. Chris Christie choking on buffalo. These are my favorite conservative things.

[Rob Carson]

Mine too.

[Jim Gossett]

Gas prices fallen. They are. Inflation dropping to our momentum. There is no stopping an end to eight wars. What joy that brings. These are a few of my favorite things. Reducing spending, securing the border, restoring faith in law and order, arresting a punk. I don't know kings. These are my favorite conservative claims. When Chuck's humor makes me nauseous, when I'm feeling sad, I simply remember we're bum and drunk votes and that I don't feel so bad.

[Rob Carson]

There you go. Jim Gossett put that together with the voice of the president and there you go. If you want to help out Jim, go to patreon.com Jim Gossett comedy if you would like to help him out, it would be such a blessing. Oh, by the way, and my TV show is Rob Carson's what in the World.

And Donald Trump says that makes me the funniest man on television. Oh, and by the way, I'm gonna be off next week and the week after. It's only like six vacation days, but I need the time off and we will not be streaming the show in that time. I know, I know you're gonna miss seeing my face. I know. You'll just have to go to my, my, my only fans page which gets no traffic. It's Weird. No traffic at all. Actually, I don't have one. I'm just kidding.

And just kind of chill, just kind of relax, Reconnect with the family, reconnect with the kids and the do I've been deployed. You want to know what percent of Brown University students are conservative? You want to. You want to guess? 10%? No, no, it's much less. Is it 5%? No, no, no, no. Is it. Is it. Is it. Is it 2%? No. 1%. No, it's less than that. 0.8% of Brown University students identify as conservative. That's how monolithic the left is in that. In that town. In the town is run by a bunch of woke idiots. We'll get to that in one second. Whether you hear the mayor, Mayor Smiley. Oh, my God. What a. What a. Just a. Okay. Bondi Beach. The shooters were able to shoot for 10 minutes, reload their guns again and again until the police finally arrived with handguns. And it took a guy unarmed to tackle the gunman and take away his gun. Okay, These idiots. No cameras on the back of the building where this guy went in to kill two people and injure another nine. Walks out. No good camera footage, and the trail is going cold because they're a bunch of woke dei morons. They're. The chief of police is a woke dei moron. Ella Cook was part of that 0.8%. She was the leading campus Republican, leading some to believe that she was targeted. Rob Finnerty last night on on Newsmax did a sterling job covering the story and expressing the truth.

[Rob Finnerty]

This is now beyond parody at this point, but here we are Tuesday night, day number four of the investigation. Eleven people are shot in the engineering building in a city. And instead of doing everything possible to try and track down the killer, the investigation is being run by people who are more concerned with DEI than they are with finding the killer.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah.

[Rob Finnerty]

Here's someone telling Oscar Perez, the police chief, also a Colombian immigrant, which normally wouldn't be relevant, but it is. Tonight we'll show you why not to use the word custody when describing the suspect they had in custody real at that time. Suggesting again during a live press conference that maybe he used a different word like detained.

[Carolyn Wren]

Releasing this 10 second clip to now someone's in custody. Kind of how you all are working together to garner that information is the wrong word.

[Rob Carson]

Okay. Custody is the wrong Word. Did you hear that? He says custody is the wrong word.

[Rob Finnerty]

Custody.

[Carolyn Wren]

How you all are working together to garner that information.

[Peter Nerona]

Custody is the wrong word.

[Rob Carson]

Someone being detained. Rather correct.

[Investigator/Police Spokesperson]

And so, yeah, someone being detained. He led us to that point. As far as, like, he's not custody.

[Rob Carson]

He's not in custody. He's being detained. Oh, my God. And here is this police chief. I swear to God, Keystone Cop.

[Investigator/Police Spokesperson]

So the video that we showed you came from inside the building. And that's all we had at the moment. That was all we have at this moment.

[Rob Carson]

It's from the outside. So do you have video both inside and outside?

[Investigator/Police Spokesperson]

I'm sorry, Just outside. That's what we have. Not inside at all. I'm sorry, Just outside.

[Carolyn Wren]

Are they going to be released anytime soon?

[Investigator/Police Spokesperson]

That was released already. That was the outside of the building. We already released that.

[Rob Carson]

Talking about the cameras. Inside or outside? He has no freaking clue.

[Peter Nerona]

Let me just jump here and clarify, okay? So there is, you know, for those of you who've been with us before, and I understand not all of you have been. There is video inside the building. There are cameras inside the building. What we have released to you our videos.

[Rob Carson]

Wow. That's the Rhode Island AG Peter Nerona jumping in there because the chief of police looks like a complete moron. Because he's a complete moron. Here's Rob Finnerty. Because the shooter said something. Everybody knows this. And the first day. The first day. I remember the first day of the shooting, they said. Somebody said Allah Akbar, which means God is great. That's usually. No, it's always what Islamic terrorists do before they start murdering people. And that was originally reported. I'm not saying it's what was said because nobody is confirming, but nobody's given a clue. Even though there are plenty of witnesses, including all the people in the classroom who survived. And for some reason they are not sharing the information.

[Rob Finnerty]

The shooter, the man who killed two people, also apparently yelled something just before he opened fire. But no one in charge of this investigation wants to tell the public what he yelled because the woke mayor of Providence, Rhode island and the DEI police chief don't want to offend anybody. They don't want to offend anybody. Meaning both the mayor of Providence and the chief of police there are more comfortable risking the lives of more innocent people instead of telling the public what the killer shouted, which could help with the investigation.

[Jim Gossett]

It was a report.

[John Deptro]

Shooter yelled something right before he shot came in. Could you tell us what that. What that was?

[Rob Carson]

Yeah.

[Investigator/Police Spokesperson]

So part of the investigation, John, and.

[John Deptro]

We'Ll the only reason I ask that, though, is, for instance, like with the Unabomber, his brother recognized the writing. So it's possible a friend or family member might recognize if the person said something that was significant.

[Rob Carson]

Correct. You don't.

[John Deptro]

Other than the 9 millimeter, is there anything else inside that auditorium that you can tell us?

[Investigator/Police Spokesperson]

No, that's correct. Listen, like I said earlier, investigations will bring us to evidence that we need to collect in order.

[Rob Carson]

Okay. Evidence. Investigation will bring us closer to evidence. Okay. Well done. Mark Halperin and his podcast says that he is hurting from his sources and he has sources that it was a targeted killing.

[Mark Halperin]

I don't know that any news organization has reported this, but I've been besieged with messages from people who are really concerned about the report. And again, I believe in being transparent here. If I were editing the New York Times, I don't think I'd put it in the paper. But people are telling me that the family of Ella Cook, the Alabama young woman who was a sophomore, has been told that she was the target of what happened at Brown. I have no idea whether that's true. There's other theories about why the person did what they did, but now that we don't know who the. The assailant is, it's, it's going to be harder to say. But if it's true that she was targeted, that's a big story because she was one of the most visible conservatives.

[Rob Carson]

On that campus, on a campus that's 0.8% conservative, don't know that it's true.

[Mark Halperin]

But probably most of you don't even know that, that that's being alleged because you'd have to follow certain accounts on X or have sources, as I do, who are telling me that now.

[Rob Carson]

The Rhode Island AG Peter Nerona, a pro Palestine activist whose Brown University profile was mysteriously scrubbed yesterday. Mustafa Karbush, his name was. It was just suddenly disappeared. Just suddenly disappeared. He has asked why was it just suddenly disappeared all of a sudden.

[Peter Nerona]

About that name, and I know the name that you're asking about because a member of the media asked me about it. I am familiar with it. I wasn't familiar with it when the media member asked me about it.

[Jim Gossett]

I think it was.

[Peter Nerona]

I think it was either CBS or NBC. I asked my team about it, and I think this is an area where caution is really necessary. There are lots of reasons why a page might be taken down.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah.

[Peter Nerona]

Particularly if there's chatter out there about to your question, Amanda, about words that were spoken. It's easy to Jump from someone saying words that were spoken to what those words are.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah. How about telling us what the friggin.

[Peter Nerona]

Words were to a particular name that reflects a motive targeting a particular person. Yeah.

[Rob Carson]

Mustafa Carouche. That's a really Palestinian, pro Palestinian activist on campus.

[Peter Nerona]

Dangerous road to go down.

[Rob Carson]

Really, really dangerous ignorance.

[Peter Nerona]

If that shows DEI meant anything to this investigation, we would be out looking for that person. We would let you know we were looking for that person.

[Rob Carson]

No, I don't think you would because you're not telling us anything else.

[Peter Nerona]

You know, again, I think it's just a really dangerous road to go down. I know really in today's age there are lots of. Of things that people read into things. It's just a dangerous thing to do.

[Rob Carson]

Well, if you didn't leave so much in the open and you weren't so inept, people wouldn't ruminate on things like this.

[Peter Nerona]

We leave it to us to identify.

[Rob Carson]

Oh my God.

[Peter Nerona]

By persons of interest and let us run them down.

[Rob Carson]

You're begging people for leads because you have no clue.

[Peter Nerona]

What the public can do for us today is help us figure out who this guy is. And we hope to have more information out that will help you do that. Help you help us do that.

[Rob Carson]

You know, nothing against the people of Rhode island, but there's a reason why nobody hears anything from leaders in Rhode Island. I think we get it now. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show.

[Jim Gossett]

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.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, baby. Cue some alice in chains. Come on. I love it. Sorry, I gotta take a break from the Christmas music. Every once in a while. Rock and rock. Thank you very much. So you want to hear Mayor Smiley of Providence, Rhode Island? You know, nobody gives a crap how you feel in times of crisis, okay? But this is the tack that liberals always try to. Because it's more important how they feel than if they act.

[Mayor Smiley]

It's starting to get very personal for our community.

[Rob Carson]

You know, I don't think it's as personal as. As the two victims families feel that it's personal or the survivors who were injured. So who cares?

[Mayor Smiley]

Which is hard. And that's, I think, where we are.

[Rob Carson]

What Democrats do, they emote. They emote and they think that emoting is an accomplishment. They think that meetings are an accomplishment even though they don't bear any fruit.

[Mayor Smiley]

Sort of emotionally in the process. But we're here from one another.

[Investigator/Police Spokesperson]

That's the.

[Mayor Smiley]

That's the scary side. The upside is that this is a tight knit community that looks out for one another. The governor was there, all the officials.

[Rob Carson]

I don't need a hug. Find the damned killers killer.

[Mayor Smiley]

Those who are up here with me tonight were with us at Lippett park last night.

[Rob Carson]

Oh, you had a candlelight vigil. That'll accomplish much as the killer is on the loose.

[Mayor Smiley]

10 degrees. It was loosely organized and yet hundreds of people came out because they wanted to be with one another.

[Rob Carson]

We're not here for group therapy, okay? We're not here for freaking group therapy. I don't give a crap about you and your feelings and your friggin candlelight vigil. The killer is still on the loose. Why would you have a candlelight vigilant while the killer is still on the loose? Go. Go run a wine and cheese store. You know, go, go. You know, whatever. But you didn't be a mayor of a city, for God's sake. Carolyn Wren is a Republican strategist and pundit and here is what she's hearing.

[Carolyn Wren]

That means that there are, you know, at least they said somewhere around 60, 40 students who were in there who could confirm what this.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, they got to figure out what the killer shouted because the authorities won't say what he sh. It. Because they're covering up something. Because that's what DEI people do when they're trying to cover up a narrative. See if it were a white man who walked in and shot her. Just a white guy, maybe a Christian. We already know everything about him.

[Carolyn Wren]

Man shot. At least five students that I have seen have confirmed on the record of media interviews saying that he yelled Ali. Well, I think that that's pretty relative information. Yeah, I think that that would matter as there is a massive search for the shooter. Did he yell Ali Akbar? Because then we should be looking for a, you know, Free Palestine terrorist. And Reddit yesterday, by the way, had to shut down the Brown University board because Free Palestine students were celebrating Ella Cook's death.

[Rob Carson]

Free Palestine students were celebrating Ellicott's death. Huh huh, huh. Charlie Kirk was murdered on campus too. I swear to God. I swear to God. John Deptro is an independent journalist looking at the case and how it's not going anywhere.

[John Deptro]

So four o' clock and he pretty calmly then just, you know, briskly walks down the street. Now the sirens should have gone off. They didn't go off. Instead it's then bedlam and chaos as they're trying to evacuate and go through the buildings. They didn't know if they had other victims in some of these buildings. If you're that individual by, you know, late into the night, someone could have been long gone. And then on Sunday, the university announced the students could then leave for winter break. So if you're that shooter, you know, you could easily have taken an Uber to either Logan, which is an hour away, or Kennedy, which is a couple hours away. Then it snowed overnight on Sunday.

[Rob Carson]

So then that's good.

[John Deptro]

Any DNA on the ground is then covered in bitter cold. This is.

[Rob Carson]

Wow.

[John Deptro]

The shooter caught, I believe, a lot of breaks. The police. This is a. This is a very difficult case and I can tell you right now, they do not have anyone on their radar.

[Rob Carson]

Unbelievable. I mentioned earlier that those last pennies that they minted, you know, because the pennies were no more, they sold for 232. Three penny sets sold for 16, 7, $16.7 million. The last three pennies ever made sold for $800,000. The last penny they pressed was made of 24 karat gold. Because gold is the standard. Gold is the metric of value that we see when he notices. Send King Tut's tomb. What's the most important thing in King Tut's tomb? It's that funerary mask that's made of gold. It's gold. It's what treasure seekers look for. I used to watch all those documentaries when I was a kid about treasure. You know, the Spanish galleon sinking. What were you looking for? You're looking for gold. You're looking for gold. And gold is going through the ceiling in value. The Spaniards never dreamed it could be worth this much. Today it's worth $4,358. It was worth 4,300 yesterday. It's gone up $50 in value one day. It may stall. It stalled for a couple of weeks at about 4,000, and now it's on the way back up again. Maybe you better get on it before it goes over $5,000. Maybe you need to also invest in silver because silver's going through the ceiling, too. That's why you need to contact Birchgold now. Text my name, rob298-9898. You're going to get. With every $5,000 invested in Birch Gold, you get a free one ounce of silver, a silver round that you can give to the kids, put in the Advent calendar, make it a Hanukkah gift, make it a Christmas gift. Keep it for yourself. Doesn't matter. I carry mine in my pocket. In a velvet pouch. I do. I do. Just like Mr. Scrooge. Maybe I'll drop it in a Salvation army kettle. Who the heck knows? I might just do that. Text my name, Rob, to 989898 for Birchgold 989898 to claim your ELIG offer, which ends on the 22nd, which is coming up pretty darn quickly. So there you have Burchgold 989-898.

Been very well, thank you kindly. The new book is out.

[Rob Carson]

I know, I know. I was fascinated by this. You've. And by the way, it's on my nightstand. Thank you very much. I try to make it through about a, about a chapter every night because I have the attention. Dude, I have the attention span of a fruit fly. It'll take me a year to get through that book.

[Chris Salcedo]

It's having my mug staring at you every night. I don't know, man. It's enough to cause nightmares in a lot of people out there.

[Rob Carson]

Well, I think it's an interesting perspective. Your book is called the Rise of the Liberty Loving Latino. And we always talk about the Latino vote and how the Democrat party has slavishly relied on Hispanics to vote Democrat. And I started saying as the, you know, they opened the southern border, that why would Hispanics be down with girls getting sex changes and boys becoming girls to compete with girls and be so pro abortion and so anti family. It was the antithesis of the Hispanic family.

[Chris Salcedo]

It was and is and still and remains. And you know, why would Latinos and Hispanics support what the Democrats did to 320,000 illegal alien children?

[Rob Carson]

Yes.

[Chris Salcedo]

Selling them, literally. Our government, Rob, turned into pimps under Beijing Biden. The Democrats turned taxpayer funded pimps and turned over these kids to known sex slavers and forced labor into the United States. And Democrats were like, yeah, this is humane. This is what we Democrats are all about. Selling children into sex slavery. And many Latinos said, no, not in my name, no thanks.

[Rob Carson]

Well, and then also just the trail of tears coming from South America resulting in, you know, the deaths of thousands. And I heard early on along the Darien Gap that the buzzards were so fat they could barely fly. And I'm not kidding, that's what I hear. And many, many, many died there while enriching mules, while enriching drug lords. I mean, what an absolute tragedy. And the Democrat party looked the other way. Kamala Harris, she said it was climate change. Alejandro Mallorcas is gone. Nowhere, nowhere to be found. I want the son of a bee to be brought up on charges. I want a military tribunal for him.

[Chris Salcedo]

Absolutely. I'm right there with you. You know what? And that's the one thing missing so far from the Republican controlled Congress, from the Trump administration, is accountability for what Democrats did to us, for the crimes the Democrats committed against us. There seems to be an impetus among the establishment Republicans. Hey, hey, we can't get into too many investigations that might lead us back to a Democrat. We wouldn't want that, would we?

[Rob Carson]

Bull crap. You know, I was thinking early on, and we recognized this tragedy in real time. There was a movie called Sound of Freedom. Remember that came out with Jim Caviezel in 2023. And everybody, everybody went to see it. The Democrat Party tried to shut it down. It ended up being a blockbuster. Talking about child sex trafficking. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. But back to being, you know, the changing mindset of Latinos. I don't remember exactly what the, I think it was 48% of Hispanic males voted for Donald Trump. I have heard, and you keep hearing this echoed from Democrats. I don't know if it's true that Hispanics are turning away from Donald Trump because of his deportation policies. Do you believe that?

[Chris Salcedo]

No, I do believe that around the edges because the biased press and the left wing press has been out there trying to classify what is being done as something that's untoward and that all of these stories about American citizens being rounded up, it's like none of it's happening. Ilhan Omar claiming my son was pulled over.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, that was a lie.

[Chris Salcedo]

There's no record of your son being pulled over.

[Rob Carson]

And those no proof at all.

[Chris Salcedo]

You have an impact on the fringe. And you know what, if the Republicans aren't careful to show the results, which is what they should be doing, that could become something that's more ingrained. But this idea that Latinos are like, oh, yeah, well, we don't want the destruction of our communities, which is why so many of those communities along the Rio Grande, along the Texas Mexico border flipped from blue to red in the last election. The fact that, oh, now, now we're just going to go back to the Democrats who flooded this country with millions of unvetted illegals, ruining our communities in the process, that we're just going to forget about all that because we see a couple of sensational headlines. I think they, again, the Democrats don't give us enough credit. And these pollsters, you know what? I wouldn't, I couldn't give you two spits for some of these pollsters because they're not out there reflecting public opinion. They're out there trying to force.

[Rob Carson]

Well, you know, it's interesting. Yesterday the biggest story in the entire country, which now is fading fast, was Donald Trump's comments about Rob Reiner, who savaged him for a decade, called him a rapist, racist Nazi, you know, said he was, I mean, did everything he could to get Donald Trump Impeached in jail over Russia collusion, all of that. And Donald Trump had nothing to say in his passing. Whoopi Goldberg would cheer when Donald Trump passes. And that was the biggest story in the world. And NBC was reporting that 50% of MAGA supporters have left Donald Trump. And I said, that's a bunch of crap. We went through 90 what, 91 charges, five trials, political indictments, two assassination attempts, two impeachments. Right on Mar a Lago. We aren't leaving because he truthed about Rob Reiner.

[Chris Salcedo]

Yeah, know what? You just actually read my mind. That is my, my preamble. Today on the Kristoff show, we're addressing this and we're going to take the Democrats down a little trip down memory lane to remind them what they do when our icons like the great Rush Limbaugh pass or when Charlie Kirk was assassinated or when individuals shot at our president. We're going to remind everybody of what true celebration of violence is all about. And it rests solely, exclusively on the Democrat side.

[Rob Carson]

It does. And you know, I always get these, you know, moral relativists who say that, you know, they said for a while there that there was violence coming from the right and the left. And then you saw, I think it might have been, you had a graph. Could have been, could have been, could have been. Rob Schmidt. I get you good looking guys all confused and everything. But there was, it was like 97% violence from the left and 3% from the right, if there are any at all. And it is ultimately, I always say that they result in moral relativism when they have no argument or no intelligence. And in the Democrat Party, that's the case with most people, both counts. Could you hold on through the break, my friend?

[Chris Salcedo]

Sure.

[Rob Carson]

I want to get you, I want to get your thoughts on a number of things that are in the news. It's another, it's another hot news day. Again, Chris, Sal Saito. The book is called the Rise of the Liberty Loving Latino. You should get it. It is available on Amazon. I actually have two copies. I'm waiting for one to be autographed. We will cover more with Chris in a second on the Rob Carson Show. Go.

[Jim Gossett]

We have a racist in the White House. We have a sexist in the White House. And he is tearing away at the fabric of our democracy.

[Rob Carson]

The single most unqualified human being to.

[Jim Gossett]

Ever assume the presidency of the United States.

[Rob Carson]

He's mentally unfit. People always say, you know, he could.

[Rob Finnerty]

Redo all the family.

[Rob Carson]

I said, I said, what do you mean we're we're living it. We've got Archie in the White House. Yeah. That is Rob Reiner. And here is the view.

[Carolyn Wren]

He just normalized hatred. He normalized talking about Rush Limbaugh, racism. And, you know, I think he really weaponized white male grievance. And, you know, he sort of hardened these, like, rural white listeners, people, you know, sitting in their trucks.

[Rob Carson]

Sonny hosted, having no idea what Rush Limbaugh was all about. But this is a double standard. My friend Chris Plant always says, if there were no double stand. If there weren't double standards, then the numbers would not have standards at all. And that's just the way it is. And the Rob Reiner story, it is a tragedy. I admired a good part of his work, but he was not a kind person. I mentioned yesterday on air, Chris Salcedo, by the way, on the Newsmax hotline, that if you were, you know, I'd feel differently, too. If I were savaged for a decade by everybody. 98% negative coverage of the news, the assassination attempts, the trials, and all of the, the evil things that Rob Reiner and others said. I don't think I'd be, you know, first in line to send flowers to his memorial service.

[Chris Salcedo]

No. And you know what? If you look at what the President said. What did he say? It was a sad thing.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah.

[Chris Salcedo]

He wished them to rest in peace. The only thing that could be halfway interpreted as, as the President making light of the tragic death is where he said that. And we don't know. We have no idea what plays a role in the accused murderer stabbing these two people. We don't know if, if the Trump derangement factored into it at all. But that's the only thing that could be called into question. But to call it celebrating the death of Rob Reiner, as, as we pointed out that what's his name, Keith Olbermann tried to say that that is. That's not celebrating anything.

[Rob Carson]

Olbermann is mentally ill. Olbermann is mentally ill.

[Chris Salcedo]

Yes, he is. He is. He is a mentally deranged leftist who has no acquaintance with truth or facts. And his worldview, I mean, seriously, there's got to be some serious narcotics or just a couple of wires loose to make him see a world the way he sees it.

[Rob Carson]

You know, if he were to be visited by three spirits, the first spirit would arrive and go, you know, I think now it's too late. I'm out of here. I am so out of here. Forget it. Because he's a lost. He's a. Oh, he's a nut bag, you know. And what's her name? Kathy. What's her name? The comedian. The red haired comedian that looks just like hell lately. Kathy. What's her name, Ryan?

[Chris Salcedo]

Oh, Griffin Griffith.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, Kathy Griffin. She's bananas. I mean, just. And she looks bananas too. Just absolutely gone. Absolutely gone. You know, Chris, I gotta tell you, I'm working on my book. Your book is the Rise of the Liberty Loving Latino A New American Revolution, which, by the way, I'm gonna get the audiobook because I'm driving across the country and I'm gonna be leaving on Saturday. Six hours, 28 minutes. I could listen to your voice for six hours and 28 minutes between you know what? Truck stop burritos.

[Chris Salcedo]

Yeah, exactly. I think that might just get you where you're going.

[Rob Carson]

All right, I might have to do that. I might have to do that. But my book is Hillbillies, Homeboys and Hebrews Coming Together. And you can add Hispanics and Handgun Owners and Homemakers Coming Together to save America. And Chris, I think, you know, we've been talking about 80, 20 issues, and before the election I said 80% of us believe the country is going the wrong direction. 80% of us can come together to fix it. And I believe that 80% of this population loves our country. They may disagree on, you know, whatever, whatever, and you may hate Trump, whatever, but I know a lot of people want the country to come together. So I think saving the country is at least an 80, 20 issue. And as far as those 20%, screw them. Deport the crap out of them. Particularly if you're Somali in Minnesota and you're not here legally. Bye.

[Jim Gossett]

Bye.

[Rob Carson]

I think we've reached a point where we're tired of people coming here and badmouthing the country and trying to change the country. You come here because you love the country and you want to assess.

[Chris Salcedo]

You seen this, this douchebag that's on. On X. He is allegedly a Somalian who is saying, go to work for me, white girl, white boy. Go to work. So I can sit here for free and my EBT card. And yeah, you go out there and he uses a lot of, a lot of nasty language to berate white people in the United States. Yeah, go out and work for me, white person. He says, so I can. So you, so you can serve me. Your US Government serves me. You know, go out there and do that, you white savages. He says, that's on X. We put it up on the Salcedo Show X page at C. Salcedo Show. If folks Want to check it out? We put the unedited version, but you're going to have to. If your producers get it, you're going to have to get a couple of bleeps in there because as is typical of these leftists, not only do they hate America, not only are they racist, racists in this particular case against white people, but they're also vile and vulgar. And you'll have to.

[Rob Carson]

I know they are.

[Chris Salcedo]

Hit the bleep button.

[Rob Carson]

Well, we're just done. You know, I think we're done with it, Chris. I really. We're done with this. We're at it. We're done with radical Islam. We are done with it. We're freaking done with it, Chris. And I like to say that the, the left exposes its flank so we can kick its ass. And, and they are. They're exposing where the anti Semitism is. They're exposing where the fraud is. And, and now we can. We can. And where. They're going to find that guy and if he's illegal, he's going to be going on and we're going to make an example out of them. For sure. For sure. Listen, we are running out of time, unfortunately. What are you doing for the, for the Christmas holiday, my friend?

[Chris Salcedo]

I am hosting. I got the kids, all the kids coming home. So I'm about that.

[Rob Carson]

I love it.

[Chris Salcedo]

And yeah, I plan on, praise God, being over this cold by then and sitting back and waiting for the fat man. So a merry Christmas to you, my friend. I can't tell you. Look, folks, just really quick. I want to tell you about this man that you were listening to, a man that I've grown to love and appreciate his passion, his love for our country, his talents, and the fact that you would have me on to talk about a book that's really, you know, it bears my moniker. So I. It's personal. And God's blessings to you, my friend. It's really appreciated, brother.

[Rob Carson]

Back at you more than you'll ever know. I knew the first time I met you, I was like, this guy is all right. And I know I'm gonna be your friend for life. Absolutely, 100%. Unless you become a radical leftist, then I'll have to kick your butt.

[Chris Salcedo]

Not gonna happen. Not doing it.

[Rob Carson]

All right. The rise of the liberty loving Latino. A New American Revolution. Get the book. I am going to listen to it across country, brother. God bless you. Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you and yours.

[Chris Salcedo]

Merry Christmas, my friend.

[Rob Carson]

All right, let's take a break and come back this is the Rob Carson show. You know, a lot of times we do Christmas parodies. We've also got a Hanukkah parody. Come on, ladies and gentlemen, basketball lights.

[Jim Gossett]

Shake, shake, shake your menorah. Put it up with pride, do it. Tell, tell, tell Hamas you can't run and hide. Show, show, show all the haters like AOC don't be afraid, you squad love the enemy. My menorah has candles, more candles than I can handle. It's displayed on my table to show Hamas we're ready and able. You're out of line, Hamas, you're out of time. Hamas, Israel's win, your loss, you're gonna pay a big cost. You're out of line, don't believe you. Hey sleepy Joe, don't believe you. Shake, shake, shake your menorah for the world to Israel you're supporting unlike NBC. Light, light all the candles. Let him shine brightly. Do it because sooner Moss will be his story.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, there you go. We got a battle with radical Islam and they've been fighting World War three with us. And it's time to beat their rear ends to hell. How's that sound? Yeah, it's about dang time. Congress set to pass the NDAA with an anti censorship provision. The Department of War is going to prevent the Department of War from using any advertising agency that deploys so called media monitors. Groups that rate news outlets for factual accuracy, misinformation and whatnot, including the left wing News Guard to censor and blacklist conservative news organizations. I told you conservative apartheid was real. I told you because I've lived it. Major advertising agencies been effectively censoring conservative media by blocking ads on their revenues using left wing media monitors. Why don't they. Why doesn't Jeep advertise on Newsmax? Because they're afraid to advertise on Newsmax. General Mills. Why not? Why don't we hear about Cheerios on Newsmax? We applaud Congress for taking the stand to oppose its censorship. When it comes to military recruitment advertising. The Congress acted to make sure all Americans see those recruiting ads and stopping left wing ratings like News Guard from targeting conservative media. It is ridiculous. The new NDAA provision certifies it does not rate or rank news on information sources for the factual accuracy of their provide ratings or opinions on news or information regarding misinformation, bias or acquire any service that provides any ratings, rankings or opinions. And it's always been anti conservative. That's the way it is. It's always been. The Department of Defense awarded news guard $749,000 for its misinformation blueprints project, which of course censored all conservative thought. The co founder of NewsGuard is a major Democrat donor, helped fund the campaigns of Hillary and Bill Clinton and Barack Obama the way among others. And this is going the way of the dodo. And this is good news for, for Newsmax and other conservative outlets because they've made it impossible to get advertisers and it's ridiculous because our listeners, our viewers consume the same product as everybody else. And you shouldn't be ashamed to advertise to those people because they have money and they spend it. Thank you very much. Last hour, the Rob Carson shows. Right away, FBI blowing up stuff left and right. Don't go anywhere.

[Chris Salcedo]
