Newsmax Podcasts | May 18, 2026

---

Overview

On this episode of The Rob Carson Show, Carson delivers his signature blend of sharp satire, conservative commentary, and headline analysis. The show spotlights what Carson asserts is a national political and cultural reboot: the left “twitching” as their power wanes, growing exposure of systemic corruption, and a resurgence of faith and traditional American values. With recurring guests and viral figures like Caitlin Bennett, Carson critiques progressive policies, highlights cases of political hypocrisy, and amplifies a message of patriotic optimism—even as he warns of increasing tensions and desperation among progressive activists and politicians.

[Caller / Guest]

You are about to hear the most interesting, informative, thought provoking and funny show in America on air and on the World Wide Web. This is the Rob Carson Show.

[Rob Carson]

This is the Rob Carson Show. Our number two of the of the show on a Monday. Hope you had a glorious weekend. I did. I rode down to Mount Vernon on my new mountain bike. That was something else, man. I'm gonna tell you what, that was an absolute blast. The most beautiful trail I've ever been on, I gotta tell you. And I've ridden mountain bikes a lot of different states, Missouri and Maryland and all that, but nothing like what I saw yesterday. It was absolutely glorious. What a beautiful part of the country to live in. Too bad there's so much ugliness in Washington, D.C. itself. It's kinda, it's kind of sad. This is new from John Solomon. It looks like that Raul Castro, the leader of communist Cuba, is under indictment in America. So if Cuba falls, this son of a gun's going to gonna go to prison. Raul Castro gonna be indicted in a federal court in the United States of America. How did we get there?

[Political Analyst / Guest]

It happened with Donald Trump's crackdown on the border. It turns out that once we started enforcing the border again, we discovered that a guy named Pardo Rodriguez, who was a pilot in the Cuban Air force and who is believed to have been involved in the incident that shot down two innocent American civilian humanitarian flights back in 1996. Yeah, one of those moments where Bill Clinton proved to be feckless, did not respond despite a clear murder of American civilians who were just on a humanitarian mission. That's all they were doing. They got Shot out of the sky. Bill Clinton didn't respond appropriately. And for years every president would kick

[Rob Carson]

Oops, sorry about that can.

[Political Analyst / Guest]

Down the road we had overwhelming intelligence, including admissions by Fidel Castro that he and his brother were ordered the shooting down of innocent Americans. But we did not.

[Rob Carson]

I can't wait for the tribunal. It's going to be awesome. I absolutely love it. So he told me to take the AOC off the screen because you streamers are trying to eat some lunch and you don't want to look at her face. I don't blame you because she's kind of annoying. Yeah, there's a lot of stuff happening right now. It looks like Cuba's on the verge of collapse. And a pretty cool article. Let me see. I can find real quick about. About Cuba. Yeah, here we go. Here we go. Time for a Nuremberg style tribunal for communism. The Castro regime's imminent collapse exp the deadliest lie in human history. And you've got idiots in New York who want to go back to communism because they never lived in it, because they would have died in it. As the Castro dictatorship in Cuba teeters on the brink of total collapse, massive blackouts, fuel shortages and street protests, one thing is crystal clear. The global communist experiment is finally gasping its last breath. This, according to Drew Godfrey on Gateway Pundit. The regime in Havana, propped up for decades by lies, repression and Western useful idiots, is facing its death throes. Protesters are ransacking Communist party offices. Blackouts stretched for days, and the island's economy has hit rock bottom. It's the end of an era. As the dust settles, patriots and truth seekers must ask the uncomfortable question Globalists have spent generations dodging. Why hasn't there been a Nuremberg trial for communism? And there should be, by the way. Those weren't abstract statistics, by the way. They killed 100 million people last century. 65 million in China, underbound. 20 million in the Soviet Union, millions more in Cambodia's killing fields, North Korea, Ethiop of Vietnam, thousands upon thousands in Cuba under Fidel and Raul Castro. These weren't abstract statistics. They were fathers, mothers, children's dissidents, Christians, farmers, and anyone who dared resist the utopian fever dream of real equality. Equality, as it turns out, was never the goal. It was a mass for the raw envy, power lust and the destruction of the human spirit. Communism doesn't lift up people. It drags everyone down to the lowest common denominator while a tiny elite of party bosses live like kings, which is kind of what's been happening in the United States. The last few decades. We've got an oligarchy now and we got people like Nancy Pelosi, hundreds of millions of dollars, supposedly being a representative of the people and not doing anything while we suffer. And then they're raiding the, raiding the treasury and giving out all of our, all of our money to illegals so they can vote. It's really, it's, it's true. It absolutely is true. There's no doubt about it. Absolutely. Here's J.D. vance. Apparently old, old Gavin Newsom, he said, oh yeah, we're taking care of, we've been going after these, these hospices for years. Not so much because they just shut down 800 of them. Yeah, Dr. Oz just shut down 800 fake hospices in California. 800 in like a couple weeks. Gavin Newsom maybe shut down a couple. And guess what? He's not cooperating with J.V. vance, who's going after J.D. vance, who's going after corruption around the country.

[Interviewer]

Has Governor Gavin Newsom contacted you to assist you?

[J.D. Vance]

I think the only contact we've had with Gavin Newsom so far is him telling us that we're not allowed to stop the fraud or in fact trying to sue us to stop the fraud. So no, we have not had a positive relationship with Gavin Newsom on this. But Kaylee, I say this with, with all transparency. I would love for that to change. Yeah, I would love it if Gavin Newsom had a come to Jesus moment.

[Rob Carson]

It's not going to happen because it's, the Democrat machine is absolutely corrupt. It's an organized crime family.

[J.D. Vance]

You know what, I'm going to take this fraud issue seriously because we would work with him. We've said that to everybody, Democrat or Republican. We want to work with you to root out the fraud, but you've actually got to help us out. Let me give you another crazy example. You know what, I didn't know this until a couple of months ago. So no shame that when your government gives out, let's say $7 billion to California for food stamp benefits, it doesn't know a single recipient of those food stamps. Not a one, because it's block granted to the states and then we trust the state that they're going to police fraud themselves. We have not gotten any help from Gavin Newsom or a number of other blue states. When we're trying to police to make sure that dead people don't get snap benefits, to make sure that these food benefits go to low income kids. That's what they're there for, not to fraudsters. We'd love to have that.

[Rob Carson]

The Democrat Party is in its death throes and its absolute corruption is being exposed. That's what's happening. That's what's going on. But Karen Bass has a plan. She has a plan for California. In the city of la, she's done nothing but watch it descend into hell. There are 10,000 homes burned down during the Palisades fire over a year ago. Ten have been rebuilt. But she's going to give meth addicts teeth.

[Interviewer / Reporter]

Also, on homelessness, at the pantry earlier this week, you were talking about comprehensive health care for the unhoused and you talked about how homeless people, many of the unhoused, because of their meth use, lose their teeth.

[Rob Carson]

That's right.

[Interviewer / Reporter]

Who would pay for the dental care for the unhoused?

[City Official / Health Services Representative]

When I say comprehensive health care, it's actually what people can get from Medi Cal. The problem is, is that the linkage isn't made with the people and the services.

[Rob Carson]

You mean the already corrupt medical that was actually paying for all the hospices and stuff?

[City Official / Health Services Representative]

Well, we already pay for it. It's already paid for.

[Rob Carson]

Oh, yeah, it's already paid for. Sure.

[City Official / Health Services Representative]

You keep believing that it's the linkage that hasn't happened.

[Interviewer / Reporter]

The reaction. Reaction to that. Why isn't the mayor doing more to address the meth use in the first place? What are you doing to address the drug use?

[Rob Carson]

No, you're not doing the D word for Richard about it.

[Interviewer / Reporter]

So we don't have to pay for dental care.

[City Official / Health Services Representative]

And Let me just. 100%, let me just tell you that when I came in, we started. Even though it is not the city's role to provide health care, it is the county. That was not enough for me. I said we.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, but there's still a whole lot of people dying under bridges from meth and fentanyl. But they'll have pretty teeth in that casket. You betcha. You betcha. Oh, but she's also got a plan for solar lights. Because the economy is so terrible there and affordability is so terrible there, they're stealing all the copper, the copper wiring for electric lights you're going to do

[J.D. Vance]

in a with a second term that you weren't able to do in the first.

[City Official / Health Services Representative]

Well, let me just tell you complete many of the things I've been working on. For example, we have a terrible problem in LA with copper wire theft, which means our street lights go out all the time.

[Rob Carson]

Maybe you have made it so bloody unaffordable to live there because of all the taxes and regulation you Wouldn't have to steal copper wire.

[City Official / Health Services Representative]

Well, about a month ago, I've rolled out a plan to install 60,000 solar lights moving away from copper and we're installing a couple of hundred a month.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah. You sure? They'll be just like those solar lights that you put on the pathway of your house that work for a year or two and then are absolute crap. Trust me, I purchased them many times. You know what I'm talking about too, don't you? Those solar lights, they. Oh yeah. Light the pathway to your house with these glorious solar lights and they end up the tops of them fall off and you hit them with your lawnmower. It's just a joke.

[Caller / Guest]

It is just a joke. Oh my God.

[Rob Carson]

Oh my God. Oh, this is kind of funny. Venezuela extradites Maduro's bagman Alex Saab to the US Shady businessman was previously pardoned by Biden. Oh, imagine that. Now may testify against Maduro. Maduro, as they like to say on television. Because you know, all of a sudden you got to say things like you speak Spanish even when you don't. When there's a name like that, it just had to just show Maduro. So There you go. 54 year old Colombian businessman Alex Saab, a close ally of former Venezuelan dictator Nihala Barro, has been reportedly extradited to the US less than three years after being pardoned by feeble Joe Biden. The deportation was considered considering that the aforementioned Colombian citizen involved in the commission of various crimes in the United States, as is public knowledge and widely reported, and of course Joe Biden completely pardoned him. And one of the things they're talking about, I guess, is all the Venezuelan interference in our elections. Did you know about that? I guess they probably censored that on the mainstream media. Here is Cheryl Atkinson talking to Donald Trump about Venezuela and what the Venezuela, of all places, to get your voting machines from a communist country. Why would you go to the worst example of humanity to get your voting machines? Would you do that?

[Interviewer]

Venezuela and voter fraud. There are Venezuelan engineer whistleblowers who provided your administration, My understanding is with a lot of information and documentation of alleging vote rigging in the US elections, including in 2020, through an operation engineered in part by our foreign adversaries and centered in Venezuela. Are you familiar with this information? Is anything going to come of that?

[Caller / Guest]

A little bit. And? Well, a little bit voter fraud.

[Rob Carson]

A little bit.

[Caller / Guest]

We have a lot of it, I believe, coming up on the 2020 election. The 2020 election was rigged. You know, when I used to say say that. They'd say, oh, the cameras would turn off.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, they did.

[Caller / Guest]

Now they don't. The information, a lot of it's already out there. The election was rigged. It was rigged. You look at Georgia, you look at Pennsylvania, you look at these states, they were rigged. It was a rigged election. And they used Covid to do it. And they used crooked dirty cops to do it. You know, they had dirty cops.

[Rob Carson]

Wow. It's amazing because that was disinformation a couple years ago. And I guess, you know, now I can actually say it. That's kind of weird. Like, why would they tell us that we couldn't say that? I wonder why. Oh, maybe because he's right. Yeah, that's it. 100% of the chance of the time. 100%. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson joke. Hey, guys, it's Carson. If you are on Medicare or about to be, you could be overpaying right now and never know it. Here's why. Millions of seniors are in a plan that doesn't fit their needs. Because Medicare is complicated. Many brokers just steer people into plans that pay them the most. That's absurd. That is so absurd, I decided to write a little slogan for it. Medicare sure ain't fair, and choosing a plan is a bear. Pick a plan with a broker if you dare, and you might end up with a scare. Okay, listen, it's a little rough. You need to know about Chapter. They're the only national advisor that looks at every plan in the country. Matches your doctors, your prescriptions and your situation to a plan that fits your needs. With Chapter, you'll see what a plan actually costs when you need it, not just the $0 some plans advertise. Your doctors are covered and your prescriptions are too. You'll have confidence you have the coverage you need. A call with Chapter is free. Takes about 20 minutes. If you're turning 65 or already on Medicare, call 27 Medicare. Again, that's 2, 7 med C A R E. Call 27 Medicare today. Oops. I thought I had some bummer music there. I do not. I was trying to play Scott Willins, retired lieutenant colonel of the U.S. army, singing the Preakness the national anthem. But the link is not playing the audio. So I'll go to his mom right now. Do you know who his mom is? Do you have any idea who his mom is? Deplorabellum, Ladies and gentlemen on the Rob Carson show on the Newsmax hotline. How are you, my dear?

[Political Commentator (female, conservative)]

I am fun And I loved watching the Preakness. That was wonderful.

[Rob Carson]

Well, you sent me a link and it didn't have any audio on it. I'm sorry. It's all right. I'm not gonna blame you. I wanted to hear his glorious voice. He did sing at the Preakness, though. He did a great job, didn't he?

[Political Commentator (female, conservative)]

Yes, he did. Thank you. Thank you.

[Rob Carson]

You are welcome.

[Political Commentator (female, conservative)]

I called to comment about that voice of political sobriety, Kamala Harris. Oh, my Lord, yes. And her no bad ideas. First of all, she wouldn't know the difference between a good and bad idea because she is cognitively incapable of discernment. Secondly, in her comment, no bad ideas, including everything one might say is implicit, an endorsement of political violence. This is the woman who a few years ago told us that when it came to Antifa and BLM and there are insurrections all over this country, that they shouldn't stop. They wouldn't stop.

[Rob Carson]

That's true.

[Political Commentator (female, conservative)]

Should never stop. She went for the no bail policies and she went for defunding and emasculating the police. So this is a woman who has endorsed many bad ideas. But there's another thing with Kamala. She makes me think of mirror, mirror on the wall. Who's the biggest racist of all? Why, it's the Democrat Party. They talk about Jim Crow as though it had nothing to do with what Democrat politics. Theirs is the party that gave us ready folks. Slavery, the Confederacy. Yes, he says Jim Crow, kkk, all of that.

[Caitlin Bennett]

All of that.

[Rob Carson]

Yep, that's true.

[Political Commentator (female, conservative)]

And now what's happened is they simply reversed racism against blacks. It's now racism against whites. But it's the same damn thing coming from these Marxists. And you know, it's interesting, Rob, that went when communism first infiltrated this country, actually with Wilson, a Fabian progressive, a Princeton academician. The people who were pushing for communism considered themselves the elite. They were arrogant, well spoken, even though they were lying. But look what they have degenerated into. Going from Wilson to FDR to LBJ to Barack Hussein. Now we have DEI candidates like Bowser, Mayor Bow wow dc, who's counting on being the next senator from that state. You've got people like Kamala Harris who think she's going to be coronated for something. I don't know.

[Rob Carson]

Oh, dear Lord. She's never going to be the president.

[Political Commentator (female, conservative)]

God, no. Not of any country. But you have these people who were so pathetically ignorant and even when a couple of them like Jasmine Crockett or that guy in Tennessee started out with an elite education they lapse into the dialect to get their street creds. And AOC did it, too. It was like Hillary Clinton all over.

[Rob Carson]

Do you want to hear? I want to play it. This is Justin Pearson, before and after real quick here.

[Caller / Guest]

Justin J. Pearson, and I'm running for president of psg. There are a few reasons that we're running this campaign this year. One has to do with representation. How can we represent all voices in a conversation?

[Rob Carson]

He was trying for a class president at his university, and here he is.

[Caller / Guest]

Just last week, mass incarceration denied us of who we are, and we are still here. And today, you will take the only majority black district from us. But I want you to know, and I want my nephew, sons, and the future to know.

[Rob Carson]

I gotta tell you, he's a clown. And the only thing that would make him more clownish is to color his fro multicolors like they do clowns in the circus, Right?

[Political Commentator (female, conservative)]

But Rob. Rob, you have to understand me, Rob, it's politics. But I can't understand him. And if I can get it the legitimate way, I will take it. I will carry on. I will scream and curse.

[Rob Carson]

Now, let me ask you this. When you go to synagogue, do you suddenly talk like this? It's like, hello, I am so Jewish. Oh, my God. Do you do that?

[Political Commentator (female, conservative)]

No, I never do that. I would never put on a New York or a Jewish accent for any reason unless I was in a deli ordering a sandwich on rye.

[Rob Carson]

There you go. There you go.

[Caller / Guest]

There you are.

[Political Commentator (female, conservative)]

It's pathetic. It is pathetic, these people. But here's one other little fact for you Dems out there. Blacks can vote, blacks can run, and blacks can be elected. What they can no longer do is be guaranteed a seat. Welcome to the new America, where the civil rights laws and voting rights laws are finally being interpreted as they were intended to be. Non racist.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah. But the thing is, how could you, as a black person, elect a white man, Steve Cohen, for 20 years, and not be racist? In that case, it's not racist.

[Political Commentator (female, conservative)]

I know. Well, the only way that white men like Schumer, who I think is on his way out anyway, or white women like Spamberger, can get into this DEI club, this sealed club in which their white skin marks them with the original sin, is by being more left than the left. So they are the most Jacobin, they are the most bloodthirsty, they are the most insane. And then, of course, I can't let this go without mentioning Hakeem Jeffries, that mental midget from New York who Referred not maximum warfare, but now says he will crush our souls. Well, you know what, Hakeem? Yes. He just said that there's no danger of retaliation because you guys don't have souls.

[Rob Carson]

No, this is ridiculous. Actually, by the way, I went down to the rededication 250 the day of Faith on the National Mall this weekend, and it was. My God, it was beautiful. And I just saw a couple of these caterwauling leftists who don't believe in God yelling in their bullhorn. And you know what? We. They just ignored them and they actually ended up going away.

[Political Commentator (female, conservative)]

Good. Good. And people should remember that when the original Fabian Communists in England went to the Soviet union, people like H.G. wells, the intellectuals of their time, they said, we have seen the future and it works. Which shows you how willfully blind they were. And another one said, use the gas. Gassing if you need to, kill off the people who stand in the way. And this is the coercion which even people like Ramsey who said use gradualism were prepared to use. And this is what the Democrats are now prepared.

[Rob Carson]

You know what? You and I just looked at this. We gotta run here pretty quick. We will beat them and then crush. Will crush their souls. That is foul. That is evil to say that a people of faith. You will never crush our souls. You cannot. It's not possible. It is not possible to take our faith away from me. What an outrageous thing to say.

[Political Commentator (female, conservative)]

Because they underestimate the Judeo Christian legacy to which we cling. It is what gives us agency, is what gives us free will. It is what gives us an ethical grounding in Western civilization. And they share none of that with us.

[Rob Carson]

No, they don't. Listen, we gotta run to Plarabella. Thanks for giving me the heads up. I cannot believe that he said we will beat them and then we'll crush their souls. That is Hakeem Jeffries, you B word. How dare you say such an outrageous thing to people of faith. How dare you. There's no one. Even Satan himself cannot crush our souls. How ridiculous for you to say that. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show. So many people living with everyday pain think they're just stuck with it. And it is what it is, but it doesn't have to be. Let me tell you about George from Oregon and his relief factor story. George is a hard working guy. Spends 10 hours a day in his garbage truck. It's a tough job. Made even harder because he was dealing with sore right knee that he couldn't bend. But here's the amazing part. George started taking Relief factor and it changed his life. He said, and I quote, I can bend my knee again with very little pain. If you're living with aches and pains, see how Relief Factor, a daily drug free supplement could help you feel and live better every day. Give their three week quick start a try only $19.95 in a few weeks or even days. Feel the difference Relief Factor can make. You don't have to be stuck living with pain. Visit relieffactor.com or call 800 for relief. That's relieffactor.com or 800 for relief. Hey guys, it's Carson for Ghostbed. I am sleeping better than I've ever slept in my entire life. I used to think a mattress was just furniture, but I got a ghostbed. Ghostbed doesn't build mattresses like furniture. They build engineered sleep systems. Their beds are serious health equipment. Beds designed for relief and recovery, not looks. Your body should be healing while you sleep, not fighting for comfort. I noticed immediately my first night on a ghost bed, I slept for 10 hours. If you're waking up stiff, tossing and turning, sleeping hot, even reaching for a pain reliever before bed, hoping tonight will be different. That's not aging. That's your mattress talking. Here's another thing I love about Ghostbed. You get 101 nights to try it at home. If you don't like the difference, you send it back risk free. Ghostbed is currently having their Memorial Day sale plus an extra 10% off for my audience.

[Caller / Guest]

Who would not want voter id? Only somebody that wants to cheat.

[Political Commentator (female, conservative)]

She is a Mathieu. I like your lipstick for your clicks.

[Caller / Guest]

I don't say anything about you.

[Protester / Campus Individual]

Make out, not war.

[Rob Carson]

Okay. What is your sign?

[Political Commentator (female, conservative)]

What is your sign?

[Protester / Campus Individual]

Says make out, not war.

[Caller / Guest]

Who.

[Protester / Campus Individual]

Who's making out with you?

[Interviewer]

Have you ever heard of Code Pink? Absolutely.

[Rob Carson]

Caitlin Bennett. That one of her. One of her best of. I should say that she is a founder of Liberty Hangout and she joins us on the Newsmax hotline. Hello, Caitlin. How you been? Trouble.

[Caitlin Bennett]

I've been doing well. How are you?

[Rob Carson]

I'm glorious. Where have you been hanging out these days?

[Caitlin Bennett]

Still in Florida.

[Rob Carson]

Still in Florida. Okay.

[Caitlin Bennett]

Free state of Florida.

[Rob Carson]

Oh yeah. Well, it is now. Anyway. How are. How are things going in Florida? How? I've said that the left is becoming more unhinged the more they lose the ability to cheat. With gerrymandering and whatnot. And I think that they're going to get violent, to be quite honest. Have you noticed any of that?

[Caitlin Bennett]

Well, I know that here in Florida and the. At the Capitol, they did a sit in and a lot of. I think three of them got arrested for trying to fit in to protest the new redistricting that passed in the state of Florida, which I'm so happy about. And so I see that everywhere that. Oh. Demand that the police release them. And it's like you genuinely did break the law. And so you can't sit in and take over a building. Which I thought that was a resurrection and that was, you know, trying to overturn election results. So I guess they can do it, but we can't.

[City Official / Health Services Representative]

Yeah.

[Rob Carson]

And you're not in a position to demand anything. That's what I like to say to people who demand things, you know, particularly like students on campus. We do demand that you divest in, you know, Israel or whatever. You're not in a position to demand a damn thing. Get your rear end back to your classes is what I like to say. But what are you. What are the top things that they. Obviously gerrymandering is the thing they're really, they're really butthurt about. What else have you been. I saw the other day you were on, I think we're on a campus and they had put up a border to keep you from being there. And you challenged this kid on the fact that you had built a border and you want open borders and you got nothing but silence from this guy. And I thought his head was going to explode. You said, your eye is twitching. I saw that one, I think like two weeks ago.

[Caitlin Bennett]

Yes. So I went to ucf, University of Central Florida, and they were having a protest on campus to demand, as you just said, demand, that campus become a sanctuary campus for illegal aliens. And when I got there, they tried to tell me that I couldn't be in their reserved space. And he literally pointed out the borders in which they did not want me to enter onto certain land. And when I said, wow, it sounds like you're trying to control who's coming in and out, he. His lips started quivering.

[Rob Carson]

I know.

[Caitlin Bennett]

Wearing a dress. And so, like he was just chasing in his dress. And that clip went so viral.

[Rob Carson]

Oh, my God.

[Caitlin Bennett]

It has 1.3 million likes and that's just on Instagram and then on other platforms. It's probably a combined total of like 40 million views. Pray for his mental health. That ditches the dresses and he's okay,

[Rob Carson]

after this, I. I just. I had to laugh. And he was. And you were. You played it so stinking cool. And I don't know. I don't know how you do it, girl. Because, I mean, I confronted some leftists here in a place called Old Town Alexandria, and they were down there. And this one girl literally was. You know, there's two adults there, like in her 40s, and then these kids from college or whatever, high school. The girl is talking about boots out of Iran, you know, and all this nonsense. And she has a Ring Pop. She's sucking on a Ring Pop, for God's sake. And so I said to her, you're a freaking child. And then I said to the adults, I said, you should know better. And oh, my God. And the applause I got from the crowd.

[Caitlin Bennett]

Yeah, it's funny. I've seen protesters out here, like teenagers with spongebob tattoos. And I'm like, you're not. We can't take you seriously. You need to go get that removed and go back, like, take a nap and rethink your life.

[Rob Carson]

I maybe have a little cookies, a little bit of animal crackers and some chocolate milk. I mean, really. And like I said, I shamed, shame stormed. I shamestormed the adults. And I'm like, did you drive the short bus down here to get these kids to do this? And this guy just looked at me. I'm not formidable, but I'm a pretty big. I'm six one, about 245. And he just looked at me like. And I'm like, just, you know, laughing at him. And then, you know what's interesting? You challenge them. And this is what you do very well. Generally, what happens when you challenge them,

[Caitlin Bennett]

generally what happens is either one of two things. They either grab my microphone and, like, push me out of the way or the least, like, there's two things that. One is more common. The thing that's least common is what that guy actually did is just sit there and say nothing. And it was really impressive just how he literally had nothing to say. That was probably the smartest thing that he could have done. And all the other people I interact with should take notes from him to just say nothing.

[Rob Carson]

Well, a lot of the times what I notice is that you will. No matter who's challenging somebody on the left, you'll say, well, how is he a king? Like Donald Trump, how is he a king? Well, if you need to ask that question, then I am not going to talk to you. I'm like, wait, that doesn't make Any sense. They do that, right. They say if you need to ask that question or there are so many things, I can't list them all right now. And you're like, just give me one. And then they shut you down, right?

[Caitlin Bennett]

Yes, exactly. And they. They don't want to answer. They're like, well, it's not my job to educate you. And it's like there's a camera and I'm holding a microphone up to you, free audience to your cause. Right now. You could change a whole bunch of people's minds. I mean, at the end of the day, they just don't know what they're talking about.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah. You know, I went down to the Rededication 250 this weekend in Washington, D.C. and I was so grateful to do that, Caitlin. And, you know, one of the things that, you know, I know about you is that you not a person of faith, until not too long ago, you were actually a non believer. And. And, you know, I gotta tell you, Caitlin, I've said that we have to overwhelm the left with joy, with patriotism and with faith. And when you do those things, they. They shrivel up like. Like vampires getting holy water splashed on them, don't they?

[Caitlin Bennett]

Yeah, that's a good way to put it. Absolutely. That event was. Looked so cool. I saw Bishop Barron was there. I follow him online. And so that whole thing looked so beautiful, like just a joyful event. So I'm glad that you got to go and experience that.

[Rob Carson]

It was. It was. I. I'll just be honest, I wept with joy because the speakers were so good and people would. You didn't even know people. And they were holding hands and, and celebrating and. And not afraid to say One Nation Under God and having the Marine Band singing God Bless America. Unashamedly. Unashamedly. And then on the street corner, you'd see some Jack Weed with a bullhorn saying, Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein. I'm like, shut up.

[Caitlin Bennett]

I guarantee you, Rob, you looked into that protester's background. He probably has some things against him of some weird sex stuff that he's charged with. It's always, always the same. Always the same. The people who were the loudest accusing others of being pedophiles and rapists. They always end up. Yes, that is who they are.

[Rob Carson]

Well, it's like these televangelists who get caught, you know, doing prostitutes. You know, they preach it real well. They preach it real well. You know, Eric swallows well. He said, oh, we got to believe all women. And turns out he's drugging and raping them. Have you noticed he's completely gone now. He's not defending himself. If he's in his.

[Caitlin Bennett]

What is there to defend? Hopefully, charges are going to be brought against him. Because one thing, to shoo these people out of office in public life, but someone like him has to be held accountable, no matter who you are.

[Rob Carson]

Now, on the other side of the break, on the other side of the break, if you hold Caitlin Bennett, founder of Liberty Hangout. I want to talk about the. Guess what? Liberal speakers at college graduations outnumbered conservatives six to one. I'm going to talk about that on the other side of the break. And also some really good news about religion gaining ground in America. Does that sound cool?

[Caitlin Bennett]

Sounds awesome.

[Rob Carson]

All right, let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show. I know that you've been forced off

[Political Analyst / Guest]

public property too many times to count.

[Rob Carson]

In fact, you were recently booted from an event promoting sanctuary schools at the

[Political Analyst / Guest]

University of Central California. Let's watch.

[Rob Carson]

We need you all to, like, get out of here with your sign.

[Caitlin Bennett]

What do you mean?

[Protester / Campus Individual]

Oh, you have borders on this campus?

[Rob Carson]

No, we have this space reserved as an official event.

[Protester / Campus Individual]

Yeah, so you have borders. Where do you. Where's your borders at?

[Rob Carson]

This whole green area right here.

[Protester / Campus Individual]

So you want to control who comes in and out, like an ICE agent or a border patrol agent. You wouldn't dare act like a fascist, would you? I would really encourage you on a rally on a campus, as an event for sanctuary campuses, you probably shouldn't act like a fascist border patrol agent. You should take down your borders and let whoever wants on the space. Okay,

[Rob Carson]

there you go. And his eyes twitching. That is CAITLIN ON. On Newsmax 2 the other day with David Harris. That again. Legendary. You said how many? 40 million views, something like that. What is that Caitlin minute?

[Caitlin Bennett]

Yeah, yeah. Something around, like 40 million views between two platforms. Poor guy.

[Rob Carson]

Okay, you know, the. The. I don't know how you do it. You're like, you know, have you ever seen Silence of the Lambs? You know, he's like, his heart rate never went above 60. And you're kind of like that. Not needing to compare you to Hannibal the Cannibal, but I mean, you. You just. And you've gotten better at it. I mean, because you've always been a cool cucumber, right? But now you're even better at it. And this guy, he was an armadillo on the highway on his back.

[Political Commentator (female, conservative)]

I just.

[Caitlin Bennett]

I literally just have too much fun. And the older I get and the more you know, like, I have to interact with toddlers of my own, my own toddlers. The more I can interact with the toddlers who are out on these campuses and at these protests. So sometimes I have to talk, talk to them as the same way I would talk to my toddlers and break it down.

[Rob Carson]

Oh, my God, I love it. You know, and I. And I think we're winning, Caitlin. I believe we're in the throes of a battle between good and evil. Evil had really run roughshod over our country and the world, and I think we've got it on its heels. But they are fighting back. They are fighting back. A growing number of Americans say religion gaining influence in society. 37% of Americans now say it is gaining influence, while 61% say it's losing influence. This is a dramatic fall in those sentiments, by the way, over the last few years. And so I don't know if it's necessarily religion per se, but I think it's faith. I think faith is making a comeback because particularly with Gen Z, you know, you guys had everything taken away from you, and you're beginning to realize that maybe there's something bigger than that, the state or bigger than, you know, whatever happening.

[Caitlin Bennett]

Yeah, no, that's a good point. I also think you have to look at what the younger generation went through in such a short amount of time. Yes, we have. What is it, one in eight women is on some type of ssri, which is like the antidepressant drugs. And there's a reason for that. It's because when our culture has tried to separate faith and religion and God from who we are as people, your life has no meaning. It's really hard to grasp onto something and find something worth living for. So when you replace faith and God and Jesus Christ in your life with things like, you know, entertainment or worldly pleasures or money or followers and stuff, you're going to end up really unhappy. And you might be happy for a little bit, but it's not going to last. And so as that younger generation that just had everything, like, flipped upside down, especially women who have been told that, you know, we need to sacrifice our children for ourselves. Whereas, you know, Jesus Christ says, you know, this is my body given up for you, and I will die for your sins. Women have been told to tell their children that their children have to die via abortion for their mother sins. And so when that is the language that's being told, especially to women, it's going to strip them of the identity that they really need to root Themselves in which is their identity in Jesus Christ. And so eventually that is unsustainable. And naturally people will figure it out. And I think they are figuring out because it's unsustainable, and people can't be happy that way.

[Rob Carson]

I find myself that, you know, I went through a lot of things over the last couple years. I got sober five years ago, turned my life around, and then my wife decides the day after the election, 2024, she wanted a divorce. And. And I feel. Do you ever feel like good and evil are tugging at you? That evil's kind of tugging at you a little bit? Because I do. I do. And I'm like, I know what you're doing. I know what you're doing. Knock it off. I'm not leaving. I'm not leaving God for God's. I'm not. And I don't mean to make this into, you know, I'm not trying to proselytize, but you can feel it.

[Caitlin Bennett]

Yeah, absolutely. And, you know, there was a time when we talked about the change in the generation and what the younger generation went through. When I. The first time I was ever mobbed on a college campus, I remember just being surrounded by this angry mom. They literally looked like they were being influenced by demons. And I turned around when someone was like, oh, but you. You said, we're gonna go to hell. And I'm like, I don't believe in hell. I don't believe in God. And like, the twinkle in their eye.

[Rob Carson]

I know when they celebrated. When they celebrated Charlie Kirk's death, like demons and then. And then Hakeem Jeffrey says, we will beat them and then we'll crush their souls. Can you believe that a political leader would say such a thing?

[Caitlin Bennett]

I do believe it, yes. Especially on the Democratic side. There's nothing that they can say or do that will shock me.

[Political Commentator (female, conservative)]

Me.

[Caitlin Bennett]

They.

[Rob Carson]

You can't crush our souls. If. If Satan can't crush our souls, how in the hell is Hakeem damn Jeffries gonna crush our souls? I mean, what an. A Holish thing to say. What a completely prideful. Just awful. I mean, no, it's satanic. I mean, it really is. It's satanic. Anyway, Caitlyn Bennett, always great to watch. You make liberals eyes twitch. Oh, my God. So good. Where can people find all your glorious work?

[Caitlin Bennett]

On YouTube at Liberty Hangout. That is where all of my long form content is.

[Rob Carson]

You're fantastic. Have a glorious day and God bless you and your family. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson show. I love me some Caitlyn Bennett. She's an amazing person. Just wonderful. What a great conversation. What a terrific conversation with Jen's here. Crush their souls. Democrats ditch their niceties after GOP gains upper hand on redistricting. That Hakeem Jeffries would say that we're going to crush their souls to us, is so demonic. It's so demonic. I'm looking at a picture of Von Pudico. There's this spiral staircase in the annex to the Capitol that I saw him on actually a couple of months back. And what an evil thing to say. Ruthless partisan tactics are in. Guess what? But they've been ruthless for a decade. High minded appeals to good government are out. Ruthless partisan tactics are in. That's according to Politico. After Hakeem Jeffries says we're going to beat them and crush our souls. I mean, movie vampires, right? Didn't I tell you? They die like movie vampires, the Democrat Party dies like movie vampires. That's what we're witnessing. We're witnessing. And I told you it's going to get bigger, it's going to get louder, it's going to get more violent. It's just the way they're doing it, man. It's terrible. Absolutely. Excuse me. Absolutely. Absolutely terrible. I got some good news. How about some good news? And everybody likes the good news because you get to hear your favorite jingle.

[Caller / Guest]

So much winning. It's lots of winning.

[Rob Carson]

Lots of winning. Lots of winning. Lots of winning. Lots of winning.

[Caller / Guest]

Lots of winning. It's so, so good.

[Rob Carson]

Oh, yeah. Listen to the good news coming out of Washington, D.C. where Donald Trump brought in the National Guard. Oh, sorry, here we go. We have Jeanine Pirro speaking.

[Jeanine Pirro]

Now since, since the launch of the coordinated operations on August 7th of 2025, this engagement has become one of, if not the largest modern joint law enforcement collaboration in history. The results have been undeniable was that almost 13,000 arrests, including homicide suspects, gang members, narcotics, trespassers, fugitives, they're igniting several

[Rob Carson]

ex police officials because they lied about the crime stats before Donald Trump was the president.

[Jeanine Pirro]

Weapons offenders, almost 1500. Illegal firearms taken off the streets that then can't be used to intimidate and kill fellow citizens. And most importantly, violent crime is now down dramatically. Homicides are down almost 50%. Robberies down 42%. Carjackings are down 60%. What those numbers represent lives saved, families protected, businesses able to function safely and neighborhoods that are beginning to reclaim peace and tranquility.

[Rob Carson]

Meanwhile, the Democrat Party is really mad because Donald Trump's making the reflecting pool great again and building a ballroom that Democrats and Republicans have wanted for a hundred years. So there's that. Honestly, Washington, D.C. has changed so dramatically even since I moved here just shy of 10 months ago. It is absolutely remarkable and it is clean. And they're doing the same thing to Memphis. The same thing happened in Memphis. And the only thing stopping from Chicago from being like this or East St. Louis is Democrats once again standing in the schoolhouse doors to keep people in poverty, in crime and dependence and grievance. That's it. You're witnessing the death of the Democrat Party. Enjoy it. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show.
