Rob Carson
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. This is the Rob Carson Show. It's already Thursday, kids. Already Thursday. Two days from Valentine's Day. And I don't have to celebrate it this year. There you go. How about that? That's not bad. That's not a bad thing. But you know, anyway, welcome to the show. Please come inside. We're gonna, we're gonna do the show. We got a ton of stuff to get to. We got the Newsmax engineers here and Rodney and Don. Hopefully the stream is going to be strong. But most, most probably. And here's what happens in the engineering. Maybe this happens when you have a, an IT guy in your office. Everything works fine when they're here and as soon as they leave, it stops working. That's just the way it generally works out. So anyway, we're glad to have them here and hopefully we will have no issues with the stream today. Hopefully it will not have problems like Joe Biden has with his stream in the middle of the night at around 2am but welcome to the show. You know, I was thinking about this today because I was driving into work and which is not really work. This is. Look what I do for a living. It's not work. But anyways, driving in and it's been fully two weeks since a fairly large snowstorm. I think we got 8 to 12 inches of snow and a little Bit ice on top of it. And it has been woefully inadequate. The removal of snow has been woefully inadequate. And certainly in New York City a lot of people are very upset about it. Here's that latest little video from a New York City resident not able to move because of the snow that hasn't been removed yet. This is Brooklyn. This is Brooklyn. 20 minutes on one block. Double park, trucks, cars, piles of ice. Nobody could live a normal life anymore. This is the new reality. Mamdani's New York. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I think we are, we are looking at this the wrong way. Municipalities around the country Democrat run cities are saving a fortune on snow removal. They don't have any overtime workers, you know, driving trucks and snowplows and all that stuff. And they've got a new strategy. It's money saving for snow removal. It's called wait until it melts. That's what it is. That's the strategy. This is about saving taxpayers money. This is a brilliant strategy by Zoran Mandami and the mayor here in Northern Virginia, where I live, that the snow has been here unmoved, cars snowed in for now almost two weeks. Ben. It's a new strategy. It's wait for the snow to melt because yesterday it was like 45 degrees and people were starting to be able to drive again. Huh? Right, Right. This is another brilliant Democrat strategy. I, you may recall that I said that in, in Minneapolis that the Somali daycare centers without children were some of the best examples of anti discrimination. Because why should childless couples not have access to childcare? Why should childless couples not have access to quality daycare? You can take your imagina to the imaginary daycare and then you can wait until after work and you go back and you pick up your imaginary children. It's one of the best strategies when you think about it as far as anti discrimination policies you can ever imagine. And this is saving millions of dollars on snow removal by just waiting it, waiting for it to melt. I think it's kind of genius actually, if you really think about it. I mean, it's terribly inconvenient. It's awful. And they fine you by the way around here if you don't shovel off your walk. Same way in New York, they find you but they haven't removed the snow from where you normally park on the side of the road. They got the, they got the meters there, they got these electric meters and you put in your license plate number and you get charged. Oh man, what a racket this is holy hell. It's like you just go in, it's three to five bucks just to sit there. But the thing is, they're discovering that by not removing the snow where you normally park, you're having to park in the street. And they're not making the money. But you get fined because you don't make your walk passable. It's just, that's the way government works. It's just kind of, it's kind of silly. This morning, Tom Homan was talking in Minneapolis. There's been a lot of screaming and yelling by Democrats about removing illegals from the United States. People who've come here illegally, and then particularly those who have committed crimes. And normally in places like Texas, what ICE does is they go to the jails where the illegal alien criminals are being housed and, and then the local authorities hand over the illegal alien criminals to ice. It's in Minneapolis where they've decided not to do that. And if there's a rapist or a murderer or whatever, Minneapolis chooses to release the rapist or murderer from the jail into the community. I know it makes no sense. It makes no sense at all. And then of course, the Karens and all of their emasculated boyfriends or just men in their lives go out and blow whistles and attack ICE as they're trying to do their job after the Democrats released the murderers and the rapists in the community. It doesn't make any sense. But that's your Democrat Party for you. And here is Tom Homan today telling you one of the things that this operation in Minneapolis has done that I believe probably Democrats will still complain about.
- [06:32]
Tom Homan
In addition to taking public safety threats off the street, ICE here in this state have located 3,364 missing unaccompanied alien children, children that the last administration lost and weren't even looking for. That's because the leadership of President Trump, these children were located.
- [06:53]
Rob Carson
And what do you suppose the reaction from Democrats to 3,300 and whatever children being found who had been trafficked and were lost essentially in the system. What do you suppose their reaction to that? News of children being rescued, rescued from bondage, possibly slavery. Whoever knows? What do you suppose their reaction is?
- [07:14]
Michael Charbone
Good job, guys.
- [07:18]
Rob Carson
Yeah, get out. Again, doesn't make any sense. Did you guys hear that? They, they rescued 3,364 whatever children who'd been lost, trafficked across the southern border, 3,300 plus children whose lives were, you know, in peril. And the ICE operations rescued those children. And Democrats Hate it. Now, also, another thing Democrats have been going crazy about. You know, there was a bunch of. A bunch of anti ICE protesters who decided to go into a church and terrify the heck out of the congregants there and tell them they were all racist and everything for going to church, which is illegal, by the way. It's very, very, very, very illegal. And the Democrats and the cnn, they said, oh, yeah, because ICE goes into church and they. They raid churches and they raid schools and they raid hospitals all the time. Well, here's Tom Homan saying, no, that's. That's. That's not true.
- [08:19]
Tom Homan
I want to say something about the various unfounded complaints I'm hearing about ICE enforcement operations during the surge operation. ICE has not arrested anybody inside a hospital.
- [08:31]
Rob Carson
Well, that's not what Democrats are saying.
- [08:33]
Tom Homan
We have not arrested anybody inside of a school.
- [08:38]
Rob Carson
I think MSNBC said that. That's wrong.
- [08:41]
Tom Homan
Elementary school.
- [08:41]
Rob Carson
Yeah. Yeah. What else?
- [08:42]
Tom Homan
We have not arrested anybody inside the church.
- [08:45]
Rob Carson
That's not what Don Lemon is saying.
- [08:47]
Tom Homan
As a matter of fact, the only ones that disrespected the sanctuary of the church were the agitators that have been arrested.
- [08:54]
Rob Carson
He was a journalist.
- [08:56]
Tom Homan
So far, we have nine of them.
- [08:57]
Rob Carson
Yes.
- [08:59]
Tom Homan
However, those locations are not off the table. I said in day one, there's no sanctuary for a significant public safety threat or national security threat.
- [09:09]
Rob Carson
You would think. Yep.
- [09:11]
Tom Homan
But as far as those stories about ICE going into churches, arresting people in hospitals, it simply has not happened. If you have a case where it happened, do you let me know?
- [09:20]
Rob Carson
Yeah.
- [09:21]
Tom Homan
Because all the digging I've done there, I can't find a single one.
- [09:23]
Rob Carson
Yeah, you ought to do is just look them up, you know, call them, say, hey, yeah, ICE raided a church. But see, the thing is, it hasn't happened. You know, one thing that hating men has trained me for, has literally trained me for chasing ICE cars off of my street, five of them right now, following down the neighborhood, honking, blowing whistles, telling them to off all that rage that I have felt towards men. This is the first time a political movement has been led by insane cat ladies. Insane cul de sac dwelling cat ladies is coming out.
- [09:58]
Michael Charbone
I have been trained for this moment, really.
- [10:00]
Rob Carson
In order to dismantle white supremacy, we.
- [10:03]
Michael Charbone
Have to be willing to lose the benefits of whiteness. Means they kill us, too.
- [10:08]
Rob Carson
That's what that means. Well, and it's time for some radical.
- [10:10]
Michael Charbone
Acceptance about that guy. That's what it's going to take to.
- [10:12]
Rob Carson
Dismantle white supremacy is losing the benefits.
- [10:15]
Michael Charbone
Of the system so we can't be so shocked.
- [10:17]
Rob Carson
Which. Which course syllabus contained all of that when you were in college, as white.
- [10:21]
Michael Charbone
People continue to die.
- [10:23]
Rob Carson
Oh, man, oh, man, oh, man. Here is Tom Holman talking. What Minneapolis has allowed them to do that has stopped all the violence and the burning and the neighborhood shutdowns and all that.
- [10:34]
Tom Homan
We now have the ability to arrest criminal aliens in the safety and security of jails throughout the state.
- [10:41]
Rob Carson
Yeah.
- [10:42]
Tom Homan
At the time they're being released, like we've done in other states.
- [10:46]
Rob Carson
Well, that's interesting.
- [10:48]
Tom Homan
I've also directed the strategic placement of officers in certain areas throughout the states.
- [10:54]
Rob Carson
Good.
- [10:54]
Tom Homan
That can respond quickly to sheriffs that want to release somebody and notify us.
- [10:59]
Rob Carson
We need. Now, remember what I told you. And, you know, they were talking about the insurrection act in Minneapolis and all that, and Donald Trump said, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. We're gonna start drawing down the efforts there. And what did they do? He defused the rage machine that's being bought and paid for in cities like Minneapolis. Have you noticed that the Democrat rage machine has been tampered down? They're still doing the same stuff, by the way. They're still, you know, arresting illegal criminal aliens and everything. But. But the rage machine has kind of been neutered, to say the least. Down the other side of the break, I've got a little more from Tom Holman saying that we're not backing down one little bit. And then also a little bit of that Pam Bondi grilling yesterday. That was a lot of fun on Capitol Hill. It was like a childish temper transfer, but a Chuck E. Cheese that would have to be breaking up by law enforcement or something. Anyway, all of that is coming up. Here is the number 800-922-6680. This is the Rob Carson Show. The Rob Carson show podcast is everywhere. Go to Newsmax.com listen for details.
- [12:07]
Tom Homan
In addition to taking public safety threats off the street, ICE here in this state have located 3,364 missing unaccompanied alien children.
- [12:20]
Rob Carson
Whoa. 3,364 missing unaccompanied alien children were rescued by Tom Holman in ice. And the Democrat Party screech and yell about it. You know, yesterday, Tim Von. The governor of Minnesota, who I hope goes to jail and has to share a bunk with Keith Ellison, the AG of Minnesota. He said that a lot of businesses are having to shut down because of all the ICE raids, are taking the people who work there, which I said, maybe you should hire a legal alien or maybe Somebody was born here, which is what you're supposed to do, because hiring an illegal alien is illegal. So maybe he's talking about that. Maybe he's mad because those children were good, cheap labor in some of the. Some of the business around town. We got, hey, man, we got a bunch of unaccompanied children here. Let's put them to work. They've done a little hands to stitch soccer balls like in China. Well, they're very helpful. Maybe that's why he was so upset. Here is Tom Holman talking about how despite all the nonsense from the left in the country, they're not backing down.
- [13:26]
Tom Homan
Say we are backing down from immigration enforcement or the promise of mass deportation. You are simply wrong. Look at the data. Record number of arrests and deportations under President Trump.
- [13:37]
Rob Carson
Yeah. The lowest murder rate in America since the year 1900. And somehow, I guess that's bad.
- [13:44]
Tom Homan
First year. And we'll continue that effort.
- [13:47]
Rob Carson
I know.
- [13:49]
Tom Homan
Prioritizing public safety threats.
- [13:51]
Rob Carson
Have you heard one single Democrat say, hey, that's pretty cool that the murder rate is the lowest it's been in 126 years? Have you heard that one little time? Have you heard one time a Democrat saying, hey, it's pretty cool that the southern borders closed. Hey, it's pretty cool that gas prices have come down dramatically, man. It's pretty awesome that, you know that being able to buy a house is coming down in price. That's. That's pretty. No, not one damn time.
- [14:22]
Tom Homan
That's. The security threats. Doesn't mean we forget about it. Everybody else. No, we will take action on everybody else.
- [14:27]
Rob Carson
Yeah.
- [14:29]
Tom Homan
That's just a stone cold fact.
- [14:31]
Rob Carson
Just a stone cold fact. That's what it is. He says, however, and again, this is, you know, I think a pretty brilliant move to defuse the Democrat rage machine in Minneapolis and look at how much quieter it's gotten up there. Isn't that amazing when Tim fault is not telling people to fight ICE and all that? And one of the things they've been doing up there, by the way, is pretty funny, is that people have been going around with whistles and blowing the whistles, because when you hear a whistle, the zombie lefties come out of their businesses and out of their cars like zombies and think there's an ICE raid going on. And so they come out, they're like ice socks. Ice sucks. F ice. F ice. And you realize it's just a guy with a whistle. He went into Dick's Sporting Goods and got a whistle just to screw with them. I think that's just beautiful. I really, really do. Here is Tom Holman talking about there was a drawdown happening. So this is exactly what Democrats should love. You should stop the protesting with that.
- [15:30]
Tom Homan
And success that has been made arresting public safety threats and other priorities since this search operation began, as well as the unprecedented levels of coordination we have obtained from state officials and local law enforcement.
- [15:41]
Rob Carson
Isn't that amazing what happens when you help other law enforcement?
- [15:46]
Tom Homan
I have proposed. President Trump has concurred.
- [15:48]
Rob Carson
Yes.
- [15:49]
Tom Homan
That this surge operation conclude what a significant drawdown has already been underway this week.
- [15:57]
Rob Carson
Wow.
- [15:58]
Tom Homan
And we'll continue to the next week.
- [16:00]
Rob Carson
That is crazy. Well, what are they going to do with all of those protesters? Because by the way, they're being bought and paid for. This is Seamus Bruner. He's pretty awesome. He's a journalist and whatnot. He was being questioned by Josh Hawley about it. What are these bought and paid for protesters gonna do if they got nothing to protest? We have tracked over $60 million according to the latest 990 disclosures to approximately 14 groups, some of them national, others on the ground. $60 million is what the violence and all of that cost. In Minneapolis alone, they spent $60 million and Donald Trump just made all the protesters unemployed. Groups like the ACLU provide the legal defense as well as facilitate the trainings for some of the tactics that Senator Corin just described. Group named Democracy Forward Take Action. Minnesota has gotten over $10 million from these large NGO networks, including the Neville Roy Singham Network, Indivisible National Lawyers Guild, CTUL, the Council on American Islamic Relations, Minnesota, MN 350-Voices for Racial Justice.
- [17:11]
Tom Homan
On and on.
- [17:11]
Rob Carson
Like I said, over $60 million, just according to the latest 990 disclosure. 60 million dol million dollars to employ a bunch of people who need to take a shower desperately and do nothing but stand around and say f ice. They get paid for that? It's amazing. I think we need some comedy about not effing around with ice. Jim, go. Protesters in Minnesota, they're out of control. Well, they're done now. Jacob Fry, all he does is lie because he has no soul. Tim Waltz, he is just as bad. Criminals he'll defend. Yeah, they did. Each assault is the protesters fault. This madness has to end. Says, hey friend, what's he say? You don't bring a gun to protest. Not a good idea. You better take his advice. Don't run over an ice age. You don't run an agent down with your car and you don't mess around with ice before you show up with A gun. Not a good idea. You should think twice. Yeah, you better. You don't use an SUV as a weapon. And you don't f around with ice. You don't f around with ice. Don't. Don't f around with ice. And there you go. I got to tell you, I never expected this. I think the Democrat Party, they want to do what they did in the. In the summer of 2020 all over again. They do. There's no doubt about it. You know, the next thing now is what the Epstein files. Even though they sat on the Epstein files for years, they sat on the Epstein files for four years, didn't do a dang thing. And then when Pam Bonnie starts releasing the Epstein files. And listen, I want to see the names of these power players. I don't care if they're politicians. I don't care. I want to see the names of the B words that did this. But the Democrats didn't give a rat's behind about it until yesterday when Pam Botney was in front of Congress so that they could behave like complete morons. Because it was the next thing last week. Did you notice last week Donald Trump was the worst racist ever because he retweeted a parody of the Lion King that featured the Obamas as primates. Now, there are a whole bunch of black people in there. Not all of them were primates. Hakeem Jeffries was a meerkat, which is an insult to meerkats. But that was a big thing last week. It was the worst thing in the world. Donald Trump was the worst racist. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Donald Trump's the worst racist. And what happened yesterday, because Pam Bondi was there, they decided that was the next thing. The day before that, it was an ICE agent in there talking about. So they went after ICE and then they went after Bondi. It's the next thing. And next week it'll be something else. Do you see? Do you see what it is? They're on and gone. This is how the Democrat Party is. They're intellectually and morally bankrupt. On the other side of the break, I do have some really good audio from yesterday's hearings and then. And also a whole bunch of stuff going on in New York. It looks like Zoran Mandami's socialist utopia. I mean, it really is. It's collapsing faster than you could ever imagine. He's already begging. He doesn't have enough money. Even though Cathy Hochul has already given New York City 35% increase in spending. This happened a lot faster than I thought it would ever would. And I think that's pretty awesome, actually. Also coming up, Michael Charbon from Canada. Don't go anywhere. 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've 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. 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? That, of course, is the theme song officially of Michael Charbonne, at least on this radio program. Michael Charbonne, how are you on this glorious Thursday?
- [21:52]
Michael Charbone
Not bad, Rob. A little solemn, but very happy to be on the show with you today.
- [21:57]
Rob Carson
Is it because of your, your women's hockey team getting killed by USA?
- [22:03]
Michael Charbone
No, we're actually leaning right now Chechnya3 nothing. And we've won more gold medals than the United States. So I'm very happy with our state.
- [22:13]
Rob Carson
Well, it's because it's so dang cold up there is what the deal is.
- [22:18]
Michael Charbone
As I was saying to your associate, Brian, I mean, you know, all of us here in Canada live in igloos. So, you know, it's so wonderful when he can eat back bacon and just sit in our cold area with our beaver coats on and just drill for oil and hunt for rabbit. It's wonderful.
- [22:34]
Rob Carson
Absolutely wonderful. Did you realize that my, my father, he was my, he adopted me, that his, his grandfather was a Canadian fur trapper? Seriously, French Canadian fur trapper settled in the United States? Yeah. In that account, if you want beaver, go to Canada. I'm just.
- [22:57]
Michael Charbone
As a loyal listener of the Rob Carson Show, I understand you're the only American who can do indoor smoking of meat and have men come over for the super bowl and make them fat so they can't fit through your door when they leave.
- [23:11]
Rob Carson
Yes, yes. By the way, did you see the US Got second place. They got a silver medal in curling and I said that the guy who does the sweeping with the broom, I said he's probably the number one fantasy for married women in America. A man pushing a broom is, is real. I mean, if he dusts, you know, and like moves stuff to dust, I mean, he's gonna be the sexiest man alive.
- [23:38]
Michael Charbone
Well, John Swiffer Jet is actually very popular in some of the retirement.
- [23:44]
Rob Carson
Swiffer Jet. Is it. Is that his strip club name? John Swiffer Jet. He works with the, the retired Chippendales dancers. He just pushes the broom around, takes his shirt off. It's, it's, it's really hot. It's really.
- [23:57]
Michael Charbone
Rob, Going to a strip joint is like being on a diet and watching food commercials. You can't eat it, you can't touch it. When you run out of money at.
- [24:05]
Rob Carson
The leave, it's, it's. But, you know, honestly, I mean, you're kind of being used in the same way you are in any relationship with a woman. Anyway, let's move on. Just got divorced. Just got divorced, you know. So let's talk a little bit, a couple of things here. The Canada tariffs. The House is overriding Trump's Canada tariffs. Apparently they don't realize that Donald Trump can, can veto this resolution cleared to house 219 to 211. Your thoughts on that? I know you're not a big fan of using tariffs against Canada because you guys are experiencing a lot of economic issues anyway because you have a terrible prime minister who's bedded down with China. What are your thoughts on this?
- [24:45]
Michael Charbone
Well, I think first of all, Donald Trump did the right thing as far as America was concerned, because America was being taken advantage of. Donald Trump has successfully used tariffs as a means of being able to resolve wars and get things done. The American country, or the American nation, I should say, is the most powerful nation, the largest economic nation, philanthropic, in the way that it takes care of other people. But it had been taking advantage for a long time. I get that. And I think a lot of other countries around the world finally have started to re. Respect the United States and the power and economic power that you hold. Where there is something that needs to be taken into consideration is your relationship with Canada because of the way that we are so embedded. I understand there's certain elements of Canada that they want to protect and certain amounts of America that they want to protect. But both our economies, Rob, are so reliant on each other. We have to be able to make some conciliatory concessions. And I think, final point, I Think those governors and those political representatives with the midterms coming up, they realize that they have to resolve the pain. And we've got to, we've got to get a trade deal between Canada and.
- [25:58]
Rob Carson
Well, you look at what's happening with our economy. There was, they said it was a 5.5% growth in the fourth quarter. That's with the government shutdown. So it would have been closer to about 7 or 8%. And look, looking like it's catching fire right now. Our interest rates are coming down. It would be nice to see Canada experience the same kind of growth. But you're not going to with your worthless prime minister, unfortunately. But, but I don't, I don't like, I don't like to see the Canadian people suffer either.
- [26:25]
Michael Charbone
Your, your unemployment rate, I think, is like down to 4% or. Yeah, sick. The new jobs numbers just came out in the States. Everybody, all the naysayers and all these MSNBC idiots were saying, oh, it's going to be this, it's going to be 75,000. Well, you almost doubled it. I think it was 135,000. The Trump Gold time is just starting to get effect now with your stock market of 50,000, 50,000 points and the 401ks, et cetera. And the biggest push which is going to be very timely for America is going to be with the taxes coming through. I think this is going to be an opportune point. I think what does have to happen is Donald Trump has to be very specific now and don't say anything that's going to upset anybody, because Donald Trump is going to be in the same situation as Mark Carney, the Canadian prime minister, in that in six months, if either one of them severely screw up, they will lose their power. Trump will lose his power from politics, and Mark Carney will have to have an election like Mark Carney.
- [27:32]
Rob Carson
Donald Trump's doing things that will grow business, and he's doing it for the first time in American history. Look at the thing that he's doing. Michael. Michael, can you imagine being able to open a factory right now and write off every capital investment this year? So you need, you know, to have a building built. You can write off every thing. And then also, Michael, a lot of people who are either tipped employees or people in overtime are already starting to get their, their tax returns because they want to get them done early, and they're finding out that their tax returns are blowing up. People who wait tables for a Living getting $2,500 $3,000 back. And if you Wait, table. It may not mean a whole lot to you if you're Nancy Pelosi, but $2,500 is two months rent, probably some groceries thrown into. So that's a major, major boon. So as this stuff kind of catches on, it's going to be pretty remarkable. Your, your housing, though, is completely screwed. Your price of housing skyrocketed worse than here. It doubled when Joe Biden was the president. Now we're starting to see some sanity. Interest rates coming down below 6%. They were 2.9% when Donald Trump left office. What's going to happen with Canada's real estate situation? And what kind of interest rates, by the way, do you guys have up there?
- [28:45]
Michael Charbone
Well, we have between. It depends what you go and depends the duration. So it can be between 5 and 6. It's coming down slowly, but it's not coming down at a rate that's been felt by Canadians, where we have a glut in condos and we had a problem where we had too many immigrants and nowhere to live. When you have too many immigrants and you have nowhere to live, that makes housing prices and rents go up. So there has been a little bit of a cap put on that. And I can't help but say that when America sneezes, Canada catches a cold. In the event that Donald Trump's next era of success, success is slowly coming online, it's going to benefit Canada.

And of course it's been incredibly volatile the last few weeks, going up to 50, $600 an ounce and then dropping to 4600 as I mentioned. The reason being is there were people selling their gold. They've sat on it. They bought it maybe two years ago when it was at $2,600. One day. Last two weeks ago it went up $500 and they said, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. I'm going to sell right now. I'm going to do a little profit taking. That's what happened. I talked to Birch Gold earlier this week and they said that's exactly what happened. And right now, Today, it's about 4960. So it's, it's hovering under five grand. And this is an opportunity for you. It really is an opportunity. You got a major break because if you were thinking of buying at 56, you're saving $600 an ounce. So. And by the way, it's going to go back up again. I'm not an expert at this. I just kind of have common sense and I also have spoken to a lot of experts and that's why you can, that's why gold has been such an incredible investment. People have already made money.

I just had it stuffed. Let me help you with that. There you go. Beaver. Obviously a big deal in Canada. Michael Charbone is on the Newsmax hotline. That, that sound bite. Whenever you talk about the word beaver, you have to play that sound bite. I thought you should know.
- [33:03]
Michael Charbone
Yeah, I appreciate that. I've never had beaver meat, but a guy who wears a beaver hat looks weird, but a beaver coat is cool.
- [33:12]
Rob Carson
Well, yeah, I mean, I've never had a beaver sandwich, but anyway, sure. Okay, so I want to talk a little bit about this transgender Canadian shooter.
- [33:20]
Michael Charbone
Oh, Rob. Oh, Rob.
- [33:23]
Rob Carson
Transgendered high school dropout. Now, listen, I'm not meaning to make light of any way, shape or form. This is a tragedy, but I'm telling you, it doesn't help to avoid, because you're afraid of offending the massive signs that this kid was going to do something. This kid had been pose posing with with guns online, had been sharing online all sorts of thoughts. And then now, after it has happened, your authorities in Canada are saying, you don't want to misgender this person and all this. Michael, I think this is a tragedy. I think that it should be. You know, obviously the parents, you know, you got to kind of wonder what they were thinking, why they didn't know that was going on. But also, you know, Canadian authorities ignoring a mental health crisis and. And recognizing that we are finally, I think, getting back to the fact we can say that boys who think they're girls, maybe there's something wrong. What do you think?
- [34:28]
Michael Charbone
Well, it was when the police make a statement that he's known to police. That means they've been there. Yes, there was. There was multiple visits to the home location because of mental illness. There were guns that were taken away officially by the police and then petitioned to get them back. And the unfortunate circumstance of how it went down is there were two people killed in a house where he went and shot his mother and his stepbrother and then went to the school and executed seven people in school. So they kept using the example of a woman in a dress with long brown hair. Now, consider, Rob. This is a Tumblr ridge of 2,500 people. That means the guy who's the cop or the ambulance driver, his kids go to school with the lady who works in the hospital, with the lady who works in the grocery store. Everybody knows everybody. So when you tuned into social media, in social media, they were identifying that this was a transgendered man who had a problem. He was 18 years old. And here's where we get to the real crux of it. It's not blaming a whole category or trying to point fingers at someone who decided on their own six years ago that they wanted to be referred to as a female. You're looking at a town that's 2,500 people. You're not invisible. Everybody knows everybody, and they know that there's a problem. And then when the media, when they refuse to identify it, I mean, the United States unfortunately has experienced transgender killings. I mean, you look at the inoculation Catholic school in 2025, or for that matter, the Christian Academy in Nashville in 2023, which, by the way, the Biden administration never wanted to have his manifesto published. There is a natural hesitation to call it what it is. And this is where we're having a problem here. You can't blame a whole category because it's not true. But if that youth was taken and had medical attention and it was acknowledged that there is some sense of mental destabilization, but we can't do that now because everybody trying to be so woke. And unfortunately, here is another example where someone fell through the cracks and it's a tragic, tragic situation. One final point. I watched a whole bunch of reports in my research last night, and then I turned on American Idol and I wept. The tears from American Idol of someone realizing their dream and some young person being able to fulfill what they loved and what they did is so wonderful. And when you compare that to those poor families and many other families across America who have experienced the anonymousness of being killed in shootings, I mean, we really have to look at this, and I think we have to face the reality that there is some level of mental disorder distortion from someone who represents that they are a different gender when they aren't.

They're 100%. 100%. Also, gun control. You guys have got gun control laws like you wouldn't believe. It is not the guns. It is the people who. Who have the. By the way, off subject, American Idol. I am a major America's Got Talent. Canada, all these. All these got talents. Whatever. The Golden Buzzer. I can't tell you how many tears that I have shed watching the Golden Buzzer moment, bro. That's my escape, brother. That in puppy videos. Those. I'm not afraid to say it, Michael. I'm not afraid to say it.
- [38:16]
Michael Charbone
I am. I am with you, bud. I have to say, part of that is the realization of the American dream. I had that feeling. I had the feeling of the American dream. I mean, I'm very fortunate to.
- [38:28]
Rob Carson
You're on the Rob Carson show, dude. You're living it right now.
- [38:32]
Michael Charbone
You know what? Ken, yourself and Brian, you guys are the most wonderful people. And I know Rob Carson from how much research you do. But I was in the movie Grease with Olivia Newton John and John Travolta, because I won a contest in Canada and that. That gave me the taste of the American dream.
- [38:49]
Rob Carson
Where were you?
- [38:50]
Michael Charbone
American dream is something that everybody aspired to and had the opportunity for. And that's what American Idol. America's got. It allows someone to be able to face the dream.

Rob Carson
Cut to the chase. Which scene are you? Who do we look for?
- [39:07]
Michael Charbone
It's the scene where they all get out of school on the first one on the right hand side when they open the doors. I'll send you a couple of photos. I was the only Canadian winner. I was flown to Los Angeles, and as a result of that, the producer, Alan Carr. Okay, New York.
- [39:26]
Rob Carson
Yes. All right, we'll watch it. Listen, I gotta run. I gotta run. Michael Sharbone, real quick, tell us where we can find you.
- [39:34]
Michael Charbone
I'm on Newsmax this Sunday in the John Glasgow Show. As always, you can go to michael acharbone.com or on YouTube. And thank you, Rob Carson and your great listening audience.

Rob Carson
We got to take a break. Let's go. But we'll take. Come back. It's Rob Carson. Joe. All right, I'm gonna find that scene with Michael Charbone in Greece. That's pretty fun. The. The doors opening scene. We're gonna rule. The school scene, I guess, is what it is. We'll. We'll definitely get up online. That is really funny. Oh, my God. That is really funny that Michael Sharpan was in Greece. By the way, I want to mention something. My day yesterday was pretty crazy. Yesterday, I found out that my daughter's roommate. They moved in as roommates in last fall. And we found out that he's been pocketing all of them, all of the rent, so. And then not telling me that they're getting eviction notices. That was my day yesterday. Then. Then I don't know what it was. There's something in the water. Whatever. I go to 711 last night and there's this homeless guy there. The other night. I got him a Coke. He asked me if I could get him a Coke. And sometimes I'll give homeless people money because there. But by the grace of God go I. So I didn't get him a Coke this time. And he went nuts. Started me saying me F you and F that and all this and all that and all this. And I have never been assaulted like that, you know, other than relatives in the past. So I had to call the. The cops. It was a heck of a day yesterday. I'll just tell you. It was a. It was a hell of a day. I never, I've never, you know, and listen, this is why I think that it's probably a good idea that, that institutions to take care of people who are mentally gone should be in existence. It is kind of ridiculous to think that somebody, I didn't hold it against him. I know there's something going on his head he can't explain. But it was, it was disturbing, to say the least. To say the least. Our number. Duh. Of the Rob Carson show on the way. The the hilarity on Capitol Hill as the Democrats Party's next thing was going after Pam Bondi. Also, Zoran Mandani's socialist utopia collapsing faster than we could have ever imagined. That's on the way. This is the Rob Carson Show.
