You are about to hear the most interesting, informative, thought provoking and funny show in America on air and on the world wide web.
- [01:50]
C
This is the Rob Carson show.
- [01:53]
A
This is the Rob Carson Show. Hope you had a nice weekend. I had a crazy weekend. Crazy weekend. But you know, ultimately it turned out quite well. If you miss it. I lost my wallet briefly and had to replace the credit cards. And you know, it's when you. When you kind of. Normally I'm very careful. I take the wallet, I put it in a certain spot and woke up Sunday morning, it wasn't there. Fell out of my pocket in an.
- [02:16]
B
Uber.
- [02:19]
A
And it kind of freaked me out. But the Uber driver was very kind. By the way, he's from Afghanistan. We had a nice Conversation. Ahmed is his name. He's got a daughter. And you know, I. And he's a really good guy, by the way. I believe he's a good man. He's making a living doing Uber. He bought his own car, saved up the money for it, putting his daughter through school, loves America. And you know, there are, there are good Afghanis here, even though Joe Biden invited all the terrorists to come with him. So there is that. But I had a delightful conversation with him. And then there was another guy from sub Saharan Africa. Where the hell was he from? Ghana. He was from Ghana. I met a guy from Ghana, drove me into the city. He was driving a brand new Toyota Hybrid RAV4. And I talked to him about living the American dream. Because, you know, the, the most interesting people I meet are not when I get to New York in the Newsmax studio or when I go to wherever, you know, it's the people who drive me to and from the airport. They're the ones who are the most interesting, you know. And so anyway, Ahmed, he drove 25 miles to bring me my wallet yesterday. And I went to tip him, I went to give him. Because there was $20 in my wallet and I went to give him the money. He goes, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. You. You tipped me last night. I said, no, no, you came and brought me this. He goes, no, sir, I will not take your money. Will not take your money. It was really cool. It was really cool. I want to get into the pipe bomber story. Something smells about it. This guy.
- [03:53]
I think he's another useful dupe. The, the kind of like that guy in, in Butler, Pennsylvania, Thomas Crooks, mentally unstable young guy. Allow him to do what they do and then they can take the hit. Then they can take the hit that do the dirty work and then let them take the hit. That's what I think is happening. I do, I do. I do believe it. Because it's what they do. It's what the Democrats do, not the Democrats. It's what the deep state does. Just a couple more things on this massive fraud scandal in Minnesota and also it's all over the country. By the way, Dr. Mehmet Oz has some interesting stats on the gigantic amount of Medicare and Medicaid fraud in this country. It is, we are.
- [04:40]
I told you, the United States deep state. The government, all of these agencies had become as corrupt as the Soviet Union. But the Soviet Union could have only dreamed about $6 trillion to steal. This is why nothing gets fixed. This is why Social Security is still broken. This is why Medicare is still broken. Medicaid is still broken. The infrastructure is still broken. Everything's still broken. Because all it is is an opportunity to raid the treasury and enrich their friends. I said this for the last five years, if you've been listening. We have a bourgeois. We have a proletariat. The bourgeois moves to Washington, D.C. and spends their entire lives telling us how to live ours. And we, the prolet, get the crumbs. We feast on the crumbs. And I was right.
- [05:25]
Under Tim Vaults as the governor of Minnesota.
- [05:33]
Minnesota Disability Services.
- [05:36]
They paused licensing after a 283% increase in new license applications. Only a 25% increase in participants.
- [05:45]
The number of participants in these programs, only 25%. New license applications. Really almost 300%. Because they're just gonna steal Small Business Administration uncovers $1 million Somali community fraud. Somali community fraud. You're a Nazi. Trump appointed small business attorney administrator Kelly Leffler took to X amount to report finding a massive fraud of the paycheck, the PPP program. Remember that? When they took all the money from us for Covid, the virus that we paid for and they created in the Chinese lab and never held them responsible and they killed our children's education and opportunities and businesses. Remember that? Shut down our freedom of speech. Shut down our churches. Remember that? What these bastards did to us. Oh, you can't say that word. I just did.
- [06:29]
Launched to save businesses struggling to survive the oppressive government policies. Bull crap. Numerous individuals and nonprofits indicted in the $1 billion Minnesota Covid fraud scandal, including Feeding Our Future, received SBA, PPP loans to other state and federal funding. Lee, I have ordered an investigation into the network of Somali organizations and executives implicated in these schemes. Kelly Leffler, obviously a Nazi. In a follow up post, Lovelar said, the fraud in this state runs deeper than was ever previously reported. SBA is working around the clock to get answers to make taxpayers whole. People need to go to jail, Cal.
- [07:08]
People need to go to jail. Here is how this all grew, by the way, according to the American experiment, right?
- [07:14]
B
It started out as over billing. So the child care center might have 60 people officially enrolled on their books and 30 would show up on a given day. But they bill as if all 60 showed up just straight up over billing. Over time it evolved into a much more brazen scheme where they would create nonprofits, go register with the Secretary of State's office, create a nonprofit, and then filed to join.
- [07:38]
A
This happened for years and the governor and the attorney general and the mayor of Minneapolis and the dfl, the Democrat, communists and Labor Party. They didn't even know what was going on. Yet he did in the food program.
- [07:54]
B
And literally one day they didn't exist, the next day they existed, the day after that they were claiming.
- [07:59]
A
That kind of makes you wonder if they let Minneapolis burn on purpose as a distraction in 20, 25,000 children a.
- [08:05]
B
Day, their children didn't exist. So you mentioned the spreadsheets where they just used a random name generator to make up names of non existent children.
- [08:12]
A
To show to the state we are feeding all these kids.
- [08:15]
B
But the kids didn't exist.
- [08:16]
A
I can't think of any names. How about put down Luke Skywalker? What the hell? Food didn't exist. They'll fall for it.
- [08:21]
B
So it started out as over billing.
- [08:24]
A
And Jabba D hut it became billing.
- [08:27]
B
For non existent stuff. They just send invoices without bothering to buy food.
- [08:32]
A
If you were an ag worth your weight, you would have figured that out in a big hurry. But you see, Keith Ellison is a corrupt SOB. Yeah. As he is. He is. He is. Here's Dr. Oz. Dr. Oz. He says there have been massive, I mean massive fraud on a national scale involving health care in this country. Isn't that amazing? We also know that 35% of the people enrolled on Obamacare either don't exist or don't get benefits. The health insurance companies just get billions of dollars for providing nothing. Yeah, they're on the take. You see, it's true.
- [09:05]
C
A Somali fraud ring in Minnesota stole over a billion dollars from Medicaid.
- [09:09]
A
Wow. How did this happen?
- [09:11]
C
Well, Medicaid programs are run by the states, which in Minnesota means the Tim Walsh administration, Governor Walz and the state's other Democrats rely on Somali votes to get elected. So they decided to look the other way because they were afraid of quote, unquote, political backlash. Don't take my word for it. That's what a Somali American fraud investigator told New York Times.
- [09:32]
A
Wow.
- [09:33]
C
When these scammers realized that nobody was guarding the cash register, they went gangbusters. One program designed to provide housing stabilization assistance to patients ballooned to $104 million when four years ago it was projected to cost only 2.6 million. Some of these taxpayer funds may have even ended up in the hands of a Somalian terrorist group.
- [09:55]
A
Yeah, people need to go to jail. There need to be massive broadcast trials in Democrat states, starting with Minnesota. Unbelievable. Oh, but it's even worse nationally. Did you know that that there's been billions, $14 billion in fraud in our Medicare system. And Medicaid system, and it doesn't even come from America.
- [10:21]
B
Matthew Galeotti, and I'm the head of the Justice Department's Criminal Division. Thank you all for joining us today as we announce the largest coordinated health care fraud takedown in the history of the Department of Justice.
- [10:32]
A
Wow.
- [10:32]
B
Today marks a decisive moment in our fight to protect American taxpayers from fraudsters and to defend the integrity of America's health care system. We are announcing Today charges against 324 defendants for their alleged participation in health care fraud schemes involving approximately $14.6 billion in false claims submitted to Medicare, Medicaid, and other health care programs.
- [11:04]
A
Now, Democrat states are withholding the information for SNAP benefits and. And programs like this. They're withholding the. The enrollment of these. Of these. Of these groups because so much fraud, you see, they're trying to cover up the fraud. They're not releasing who's getting SNAP benefits, which is a tool used by Democrats to load up illegals with free benefits. Give them Social Security numbers, by the way. 9 million Social Security numbers given to illegals during Joe Biden's presidency. They did it. They did it. They replaced you. Yeah. The replacement theory wasn't racist at all. It was just true. It was just true. It was just true. And here's Ann Lopez. She's the AG of Hawaii, and she says we don't need to turn over the SNAP enrollment because. Because we're already investigating the fraud. Sure. That's like, you know, Jeffrey Dahmer saying, I'm going to investigate the murders of those people.
- [12:02]
B
We already are fighting fraud and abuse through mandatory programs that Congress has already created. So this idea that we have to provide this data so that they can root out fraud and abuse is just wrong?
- [12:18]
A
No, no, it's actually right. And all the Republican states turned over the data already, but all the Democrat Party states have said no. It's because you're hiding it. It's because you are criminal. You are a criminal. And there are many criminals in the Democrat Party. This is why I said the Democrat Party is in a death spiral to hell. And the Democrat Party either has to completely reinvent itself or disappear into the dustbin of history. And they're doing the sweeping. They're doing the sweeping. Wow. All right, we're going to talk about the pipe bomber, the Jan6 pipe bomber. Something really reeks about this. It's not cut and dried at all. We'll cover that in a second. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show.
- [13:05]
Hey, quick Question.
- [13:05]
B
For all the people mad at Donald.
- [13:07]
A
Trump for calling that reporter a piggy, would you have preferred he called her Hitler?
- [13:14]
B
Racist, rapist, pedo, dictator, fascist.
- [13:23]
A
Would you prefer one of those?
- [13:29]
Don't forget white supremacist, you know, because that's, you know, Donald Trump's white supremacist. Well, I voted, I guess I voted for a Nazi. White supremacist. Whatever. Honestly, just so done with the nonsense of the. The left tired of this temper tantrum they've been throwing for the last 10 years and they've doubled down on it looking for the next thing. Have you noticed lately a lot of conservative pundits are saying that even, even Senator Eric Schmidt said the Democrats are always looking for the next thing because they want to come up with something else? Right now it's war crime against Pete Hegset. It's falling flat. It's falling flat because. Because Barack Obama killed between 6 and 800 civilians when he was the president and between 2800 and I think 3800 other individuals using drone strikes. Nobody said a damn thing. So that's the next thing and they'll come up with something. After that it was shut down. Before that it was no Kings rally. Before that it was Elon Musk as a Nazi. Before that it was single gay. Before that.
- [14:31]
Affordability, affordability, affordability.
- [14:37]
Miranda Devine, who, wow, really had her head rear upper rear end with a poll of FBI workers who hate the fact that Cash Patel and Dan Bongino are shaking up a very corrupt agency. She actually came back to her senses a little. Maybe somebody gave her some smelling salts. Have you ever smelled smelling salts? I've never smelled them before. Mystery deepens as to why it took the FBI nearly five years to finally bust the suspected Jan six pipe bomber. Well, you know why? Cuz they knew who it was. This is Ned Ryan.
- [15:09]
B
Either the FBI and the DOJ are grossly incompetent or grossly politicized under Merrick Garland and Christopher Wray. I don't think they were grossly incompetent, Jesse. I think they were grossly politicized. Just to reiterate some of the comments just made by your previous guests, I think based off evidence I'm seeing coming out, I think the FBI probably knew the identity of the Obama back in 2021, but it didn't fit the narrative. This was narrative shaping to hide the true identity of the bomber. Because it wasn't the narrative they wanted. They wanted to be able to say this was somehow they wanted to at Least let the false perception out there that this might have been an angry white supremacist who was a MAGA supporter.
- [15:46]
A
Yeah. He wanted to protest the elections to.
- [15:49]
B
Help shape that narrative. Even though they knew that was false. Because let's remind people, Christopher Wray and Merrick Garland were heavily politicized and they weaponized both of those entities.
- [16:00]
C
Yeah.
- [16:00]
A
To go after Donald Trump and his.
- [16:01]
B
Supporters against political opponents. So they don't want this, this inconvenient narrative out there that it might have been a young black bomber and not an angry white MAGA supporter.
- [16:10]
A
What about a, what about a learning disabled one?
- [16:15]
Yeah, listen to this. Brian Cole. Cole Jr. Is a 30 year old loner, lives in his mom's basement, Woodbridge, Virginia. His grandmother says he's very naive. He's almost autistic, like because he doesn't understand a lot of stuff. He's slow, he may be 30, but he's got the mind of a 16 year old. Yet we are told this alleged criminal mastermind evaded the FBI for five years.
- [16:40]
You're being played. If you believe this, you're being played. The Biden administration under Christopher Wray may have not wanted to solve the case. Intentional negligence. This, after all, was the FBI that managed to round up and charge 1500 supporters of President Trump who set anywhere, set foot anywhere near the Capitol on January 6th. Tracking them down through cell phone pings and video footage. Yet with all this technical ability, Ray's FBI somehow missed the phone used by the suspect in the vicinity of the Democrat national committee and RNC headquarters on the evening of January 5th when the pipe bombs were planted. Wearing a gray hoodie, Covid style mask, seemingly talking on a cell phone while walking around that night less than a half mile from the Capitol. Couldn't find them. Couldn't find them. Couldn't find him. Ned Ryan again, ladies and gentlemen.
- [17:29]
B
And I think it gave him cover to be able to go and persecute and prosecute a lot of these other.
- [17:33]
A
People who, after Jan Sixers, who knew the election was robbed and stolen, frankly.
- [17:38]
B
Were maybe guilty of a misdemeanor of trespassing on January six. And that was their focus. Their focus was to destroy political opponents, not to actually get to the truth of them. Yeah, but, but let's not forget, Jess, remember those, those bags of classified information that were to hidden skiff at the FBI. We don't know what the previous FBI was doing or not doing and trying to destroy or hide evidence that somehow Cash and Dan have, have stumbled upon. So it might be There. It might not be there, but just knowing how, how Ray and Garland operated, I think they probably knew. I think they probably knew pretty quickly in 2021 who the actual bomber was. It just was not a politically convenient truth that they wanted to put out there.
- [18:21]
A
Yeah, yeah. And I think they allowed the bomber to do what he did. Like they did with Thomas Crooks.
- [18:29]
Yeah, I believe it 100%, because that's what they did with Lee Harvey Oswald. You're sounding very conspiratorial. I am the furthest thing from Alex Jones you could ever imagine.
- [18:40]
Cole cell phone engaged in approximately seven data session transactions on January 5th in the area of the RNC, locating him in the right place at the right time. That information was obtained by the FBI within weeks of the discovery of pipe bombs. The next day, investigators found 186 cell phone numbers of interest and one devices of interest.
- [19:02]
They narrowed it down. They narrowed it down. According to a congressional report released this January by the Chairman of the House Oversight and Judiciary Committees, Barry Loudermilk, by early February 2021 FBI agents had assigned to interview people associated with 36. Of the 186 numbers. 98 still required additional investigative steps. A further 51 phone numbers were identified as not needing further action because, curiously enough, the phones belong to law enforcement officers or persons on the exclusion list. The FBI never told Congress what came of leads. The story came from Steve Dantonio, who was in charge of the crucial first year of the pipe bomb investigation. He also ran the disastrous Gretchen Whitmer fednapping case that tried to entrap Trump supporters into a kidnapping plot of Gretchen Whitmer. He was in charge of that. That entrapment. He also led the. The controversial raid on Mar a lago.
- [19:58]
Wow. June 2023. Dantonio testified before Congress claiming the FBI had received corrupted data in the pipe bomb case from one of the three major cell phone companies. May have been reason it couldn't find the culprit. Yet all three of these cell phone carriers contacted. Loudermolt's subcommittee confirmed that they did provide corrupted data to the FBI, and the FBI never notified them of any issues with accessing the cellular data.
- [20:25]
They knew. Do you know. Do you know why I know that? Because I'm not stupid. I'm not stupid, not a conspiracy theorist. I'm just not stupid. There you go. We've got a little bit more on that coming up on the show. And we've got Tony Schaefer's going to be joining us to talk about it. Among other things, the possibility of peace at Ukraine and Russia and all of that is. And narco drug boats being blown out of the water always brings a smile to my face. That's coming up. And this, my friends, is the Rob Carson show. Don't go anywhere.
- [21:14]

C
A 30 year.
- [22:35]
B
Old white man from the D.C. suburbs.
- [22:37]
A
Forbes, is charged with transporting an explosive.
- [22:40]
B
Device in interstate commerce.
- [22:44]
A
Yeah, this pipe bomber is a black guy and Jake Tapper said he was a white guy even though his face was being shown on television.
- [22:54]
He has since apologized. You see, what I would do is I would have expected that he would write a book about it four years from now and say that he realizes now that the, the bomber's black. You know, kind of like Joe Biden with his brain and everything. Yesterday, minutes before we showed you the suspect's photo, I mistakenly said the suspect was white. Obviously, as the photo revealed, he's black. Apologize for that mistake. That's Jake Tapper. Jake Tapper. Many Hassan is on MSNBC and in 2022 he was convinced, oh yeah, the bomber is definitely a white guy.
- [23:26]
B
Jelani, you're a black man. I'm a Muslim. When you consider how black criminals and Muslim terrorists.
- [23:32]
A
He's a Muslim.
- [23:33]
B
Are treated both by the legal system and by the and yet the January 6th pipe bomber who laid explosives in front of the RNC and DNC headquarters still walks free. We just learned today that then Vice President Elect Harris was inside the DNC when the bomb was found there. We still don't take domestic terrorism of the far right, white variety seriously in this country, do we?
- [23:55]
A
You're wrong.
- [23:58]
This is the narrative they were trying to cover up that he wasn't a Trump supporter. But I think they used him. I think they used him like they did Thomas Crooks. I do. I think they used him. And I think he's a, he's a.
- [24:12]
Learning disabled individual. He lives at home with his mother. Not because he's, you know, whatever creepy guy living in the basement, obviously, as he's, you know, assembling bombs, but.
- [24:22]
Not of sound mind. These are the kind that the deep state like to use to commit acts of violence. This is why they love these insane transgendered people who, who think they can become the opposite sex and then go into, you know, Catholic daycares and shoot up people or whatever. They, they try to take advantage of the mentally unhinged or the mentally disabled. It really. That's what I believe. That's what I believe. Here is a Stuart Kaplan. Stuart Kaplan talking about the Jan6 bomber.
- [24:51]
C
When the leadership.
- [24:52]
A
And by the way, this, this guy was not a criminal mastermind or genius. Why in the bleep did the FBI not find him? He's not a criminal masterminder genius. He's not Ted Kaczynski living in the middle of the wilderness, typing out stuff on a typewriter uncovered by his brother. And a couple keys on the typewriter that gave a signature to all the letters that he wrote on the typewriter. Nothing like that. He was a Unabomber, by the way.
- [25:17]
C
At the Hoover Building during the Biden administration was preoccupied with chasing political narratives. That's why you had the delay. It was not for a lack of effort from the street agents or a lack of evidence, because quite frankly, there was really a treasure trove of evidence that was left behind. But if the street agents are told to basically stand down or dismantle.
- [25:41]
A
Yeah, yeah, they were.
- [25:43]
C
Because the trajectory of the seventh floor of the Hoover Building is chasing Donald Trump and all this nonsense during the Biden administration and putting January 6th individuals in jail. And by the way, the amount of effort that went into some of these cases, and Jesse, you know, I know firsthand, I actually represented a January 6th individual went to trial. The amount of evidence and the needle in the haystacks and the amount of resources and assets that were deployed for simple misdemeanor cases would make your head turn around 100 times till Sunday. So the bottom line is they were chasing political narratives. This case sat on a shelf. No one worked this case.
- [26:23]
A
Yeah, duh. Bourgeois proletariat. Bastille. They created a Bastille in Washington, D.C. and they put up January 6th prisoners for four years without a trial and abused them worse than you could have ever imagined at Abu Ghraib. And I said, eventually, the people who put them there need to replace them there. There has to be some accountability. I know several of the Jan Sixers at the CPAC this year. I remember I maybe heard this story. I heard the national anthem by a group of men in the big convention center here in Washington, D.C. national harbor, and it was echoing throughout this glorious sound of the Star Spangled Banner. I went over the edge and I looked down at this group of men outside of a pub, and I said, who are they? And they said, those are the Jan Sixers. And I went downstairs and. And I met them all and I. And I bought many a drink, by the way.
- [27:24]
And sang with them, including Jake Lang, who was in jail for four years without a trial. Transferred half. No, a dozen times.
- [27:36]
Treated like animals, denied fresh water, denied good food, denied medical care. Evil. Oh, you evil son. The guns you really are. Here's a little bit more from Stuart Kaplan.
- [27:47]
C
The bottom line is there was a dangerous individual or individuals that were out setting up pipe bombs that potentially would have had lethal consequences. The fact was, no one decided at the top on the seventh floor of the Hoover Building, that it was important enough to find that needle in the haystack. And by the way, Jesse, to Gene Pirro's point, a needle in the haystack. There are cases that the FBI has, sol. With less evidence, less of a needle in the haystack. That's why the FBI is the best of the best. And so the reality is they didn't care who. What side he was on. They should have only cared about the fact that we need to apprehend the danger.
- [28:31]
A
They were too busy going after Trump supporters.
- [28:34]
Wow. Oh, my God.
- [28:38]
You know what I think? I think we need some good news. Don't you? You want to hear some good news? How about some good news? You know why? Because the economy is rocking and rolling. I know that, you know, affordability. It's affordability and all that, but no, no. Things are getting much more affordable. We love to win.
- [28:52]
B
Winning, winning.
- [28:54]
A
So much winning. It's lots of winning. Lots of winning. Lots of winning. Lots of winning. Lots of winning, lots of winning. It's oh so good. Yeah, a lot of good winning happening out there, including gas prices coming down and all of that. This is John Kennedy. He's the king of colloquial, talking about this, this word, this buzzword that the Democrats came up with. Even though we suffered greatly under Joe Biden's economy, the economy sucked. I talked about this because I was selling cars at the beginning of his administration. And then I watched the suffering, I watched the, and I use this analogy, chicken breasts at Walmart were $1.88, $1.88 a pound. And then during Joe Biden's administration, they went up to 289 on sale and they never came back down. And egg prices quadrupled and gas prices tripled. House prices doubled, interest rates tripled. It was a, it was a bleep show. It was a bleep show. You don't need to be Euclid to figure this out. A few years ago we had 9% inflation.
- [29:53]
B
Prices were going up 9% a year. That inflation didn't originate in a bat. It was man made.
- [30:00]
A
And that man's name is Joe Biden. President Biden was an inflation machine. Now, since then, the Trump administration, Republicans in Congress and the Federal Reserve have gotten inflation down from 9% to 3%.
- [30:15]
B
So things are better, but they're not.
- [30:17]
A
Well, yeah, they could be better. They could certainly be better, but they were a whole hell of a lot better. Gas prices down below $3 a gallon went through this healing. And if you don't believe me, listen to ABC. Television in 2022 was 9% when I came to office, 9%. Inflation was actually 1.4% when Biden was sworn in, peaking at 9.1% in June 2020 has since come down to 3.5%, preventing a further drop. Housing costs in New York City, one survey found rent is rising seven times faster than wages because of all the illegals that Joe Biden led to the country. It's absolutely 100% true. In California, a condo in West Hollywood just sold for a record smashing $24 million. Food costs, yeah, they doubled the price of houses in America. And so the median ownership for age, for ownership of a first time home went from 33 years old to 30 years old under Joe Biden. Also playing a role. Grocery prices are up 26% since 2019. And fast food prices are up 33 years. Grocery prices up almost 30%. That's ABC News 3%. Many consumers saying Enough is enough. I don't mean to be broke, but for an eight count mini and a lemonade. Yeah. $14. Remember that? Remember when fast food prices went through the ceiling? Remember that? When you used to be able to feed a family for McDonald's for like 20 bucks or 22 dol and it was all sudden 50 friggin dollars that this was fine dining now Because I might as well go at a sit down restaurant and be served if I'm gonna pay this tick. And you wanna know what Marge Brennan is mad about? Marge Brennan is. Well, I'm gonna share it after the break. You won't believe what Marge Brennan on CBS is mad about with Donald Trump. It is a non factor and when you hear it you're just gonna go pow. And I'll cover that in a second. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson show.
- [32:24]
I watched George C. Scott's Christmas Carol from 1984 made for television on Friday. Had some popcorn and just chilled out in my crib. In my crib. You know I'm a bachelor now, so it's my crib. Right. If you want to see the crib, you should see the crib. I did a little video of my Christmas decorations. I got these LED lights on this. I have a spiral staircase leading to a loft that I made into a second bedroom for guests. And, and you can turn it from red and green. And I did just go to my social media Rob Carson show. Mary Walter was giving me crap. She sent me a, a meme that featured Austin Powers.
- [33:07]
Let's see here. New Harvard Marist poll released Monday showed President Trump is outperforming Congress by a significant.
- [33:14]
Number of point 19 points, 47% approval compared to Congress because you know, Congress sucks. But I thought Donald Trump was a Nazi and everything. Oh, maybe that's just not playing anymore. Maybe it's all just crap. Marge Brennan on cbs. Very mad at Donald Trump because you know, the economy is doing really well. We've got huge, huge, huge success. You and I'll get to that in a second. Because Black Friday and Cyber Monday were gigantic because people have more money. And when January 1st kicks in, and Democrats know this, when Social Security recipients don't have to pay taxes on their income and when people who get tips for a living don't have to pay taxes on their income and when overtime pay is no longer taxed federally and when you can write off the interest on your American made car loan. Holy hell, you ain't seen nothing. You know what? Oh No, I can't do that.
- [34:09]
I can't trade in buck. I will never trade in buck. I've made a commitment for life to buck my Bronco. Can they do it retroactively if it was a car built in America? No. No. We'll find out. Marge Brennan's mad because the economy is doing better than Donald Trump thought it would. Mr. Secretary, a lot of people are.
- [34:24]
B
Out there holiday shopping. Here is how the President described back in April what to expect expect from this season.
- [34:30]
A
Maybe the children will have $2 instead of $30, and maybe the $2 will cost a couple of bucks more than they would normally do.
- [34:39]
B
Was the President's prediction then correct? Margaret? It's actually been a very strong holiday season.
- [34:45]
A
And, you know, we've seen across the.
- [34:48]
B
All the income cohorts thus far.
- [34:51]
A
And so there's nothing to say that.
- [34:52]
B
They'Re $2 instead of $30. The president was wrong to predict lower.
- [34:58]
A
Numbers of purchases and higher prices.
- [35:01]
B
The economy has been better than we thought we've had.
- [35:03]
A
Oh, my God. She is b wording and complaining that Donald Trump said it wouldn't be as good as it is right now. Oh, my God, woman.

Trump gets surprising approval rating boost as a roaring economy signal lifts the pressure on American families. The President's approval rating jumped from 45 to 45, 47% between November and December 4, higher than Barack Obama and George W. Bush, by far. The two point increase over the past weeks comes as prices have stabilized. Spending records were set on Thanksgiving despite concerns over affordability, which is a bullcrap word from the Democrat party, which Trump has branded a Democrat scam. It is Black Friday and Cyber Monday both broke online spending records over the Thanksgiving weekend. $44.2 billion spent online alone, according to the Adobe analysis. The Rozier results appear while the national average for gas prices drop below three bucks. It's kicking ass. The economy is kicking butt. I went to yesterday to. Oh, man. What the hell is that? It's. It's not Kohl's. It's T.J. maxx. Oh, my God. That place is.
- [36:16]
I've never really been a TJ Maxx guy because it always looked kind of chaotic and weird in there.
- [36:23]
I go in to buy a new wallet yesterday because I had my wallet. I lost my wallet and then I had it returned after I canceled my credit cards over the weekend.
- [36:33]
What a weekend. What a weekend. So I go into TJ Maxx to buy a wallet and you know what I walked out with? I walked out with so much stupid crap that I didn't need. Oh my God. I bought a, an indoor snowball fight. It's a box that has these balls of cotton or whatever the hell, and so you can have an indoor snowball fight. I got that for like my daughter. And then I got a cotton candy machine. And then I got a friggin like a Run DMC style J jogging suit in Christmas colors for my nephew. And what else? And I bought a light projector that projects the.
- [37:07]
Solar system onto the ceiling. And what else? And then some spongebob socks. What the hell? What's up with TJ Maxx? Oh my God, I get it now. It's. And then they, and then they, then they herd you into this.
- [37:20]
Avenue of great deals that is crap you'd never consider buying otherwise. Never consider buying, you know, ducky house slippers. Never consider buying a 10 pound bag of gummy bears. Never consider buying all the dish towels with the Christmas stuff on it. Never consider buying. And you're right there. And you're stuck there until they go cashier number eight and you move forward about three feet and then you're stuck with more stuff. And then if you can get through that gauntlet, if you can get through that gauntlet, by the time you get to the cash register, you're going to lay out your stuff and they're going to ring it up and you're going to pay for it and you're going to get out of your car. You're going to go, what the hell just happened to me? What just happened to me?
- [38:01]
T.J. maxx. Wow. I. I gotta stay the hell away from that place. I went in to buy a wallet. I ended up buying like $140 worth of crap.
- [38:13]
So anyway, the economy is doing really well is what I'm trying to say.
- [38:19]
Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show.
- [38:29]
Run DMC Christmas in Hollis.
- [38:34]
I bought this. This very, very much Run DMC style jogging suit. Crank this up.
- [38:45]
At TJ Maxx. Because I always, for my nephew who's not much younger than me, because my family are like bunnies and my brothers and sisters are much older than me. And I always buy him something silly like a, you know, reindeer hat or something and, you know, some sort of goofy pajamas, you know, Christmas theme. And I got this Run DMC jogging suit that's got. Christmas is like, you know, Santa and his homies on the back and I've got Adidas at home. And I'm. I'm thinking about keeping it, but I'm thinking about keeping it.

Because it's kind of dope. Yeah.
- [39:23]
So a lot of politicians should be getting cold in their stockings. Burt's Gold thinks it's a smart planner. You deserve silver.

You can give it to the kids, put it in their advent calendar, put it in their stocking. What, Wrap it up. Hell, to give it as a present. It's freaking worth 60 bucks. It's going to go up too.

The Democrats have found a new love in narco terrorists and they're defending narco terrorists who've killed hundreds of thousands of Americans. That's how awful and rotten and pathetic the Democrat Party has gotten. And it's doing a face plant. So I've got all of that coming. New satire from Jim Gossett coming up on the other side of the break as well. What else do I got? Oh, oh, yeah. I got Eric Schmid goes off on George Stephanopoulos. Senator Eric Schmidt this weekend went off on George Stephanopoulos. He ate George Stephanopoulos rear end for lunch. He had to floss after the interview. It was so glorious.
