People? We are live. I'm Dave Rubin. This is the Rubin report. It is September 10, 2025. We are live streaming as we are one to do on Rumble, YouTube and Locals. I know you've already subscribed. Tap that notification button and all the rest of it. I will be in Australia as you know, Dave rubin.com events join me soon. Special guests, all sorts of hijinks down under in October. And there was a rumor going around Miami that Copal will be back in stock on Monday. Somebody I heard it somewhere. And I also heard that if you go right now to drinkcopal.com, you can get on the email list. So you will be the first to be notified. That's just what I heard when I was walking the dog this morning. Today's show, well, it's, it's a real jump off of what we did yesterday. And although as you can see in the cold open there, we were able to do some, let's say blue, we worked blue a little bit in the humor, made some sexual jokes, that sort of thing. There's really a disastrous problem happening in the country right now. And this one I think is connecting the culture war, it's connecting the online wars, it's connecting the political wars. Like it really has a little bit of everything. And of course, you know what I'm talking about about this, a beautiful young 23 year old refugee from Ukraine who was murdered in cold blood for no other reason, although perhaps it had something to do with her race on the light rail in Charlotte. And then the subtext to that or the side story of that is how the media covered it up and then how they hid it and all of these things. So we're going to do a deep dive here. We're also finding a little bit more about how this guy was let out of jail. A 14 time offender who had 16 mug shots. I mean, it's really, really banana stuff. So we're really doing a deep dive today. So. All right, let's jump right in. So first off, yesterday you may have seen it online. We had a little internal debate as to whether we were going to show it. There's issues around whether we would have been demonetized or even would have had this live stream taken out altogether. The video from the light rail, the full video of her being stabbed, of her just sitting there quietly minding her own business and then the guy sitting right behind her just stabbing and murdering her in cold blood. That video is available. It's out. I saw it yesterday on. It's unbearable. It will be likely sort of like the 10-7-video that I saw when I was in Israel. That 47 minute thing. It'll be etched in my brain forever. It's unimaginably awful. We are not going to show you the whole video. We're going to show you three screenshots here. So you've seen the first two already. Of course. Here are the images of when she's just realizing what has happened. And then we will show you one other image. It's slightly blurred out here. This is after. So the guy, the murderer walks away and that is her body on the floor. And one guy, you know, like moments later sort of gets involved to see if he can help her. But you can see there's blood everywhere. It's just unimaginable. So the reason I wanted to show you those images to start is that we really need to realize like that girl, whether she was a Ukrainian refugee or not, whether she's white or black or anything else, whatever her political beliefs are, it could have been your mom, it could have been your sister, sister. It could have been anyone, right? Like even remove gender from it for a second. It could have been literally anyone. And until we're going to confront some of the problems that are leading to, leading people to doing things like this, then we're never going to get out of this. So let's talk first about how the media kind of hid this for a little bit, right? And you know this because this happened actually in August. And the only reason we, we found out about over the last couple days is because the original video was leaked online and then everyone started talk it online. It got framed as a oh my God, it's Maga people talking about it. But then finally it burst forth. It broke through that airlock that I'm always talking about and mainstream had to cover it. Here is White House spokesperson Caroline Levitt talking about how the mainstream and the Dems were ignoring this because it didn't fit the narrative.
Conservative Commentator
Today I would like to address the tragedy that has not received nearly enough media attention. The brutal murder of Irina Zarutska. Here are the facts that many outlets have shamefully and intentionally failed to report. Until President Trump drew attention to it. This beautiful, innocent, 23 year old young woman was a Ukrainian refugee who had recently fled her country for a chance at a safer life and a promising new beginning here in the United States of America. But tragically, a public transportation system in a major American city was more dangerous than the active war zone. And that she left. The President and the entire White House are praying for her family and friends during this unimaginably difficult time. But while we extend our thoughts and prayers, we must also seek justice for this crime and call attention to this heinous incident. Decarlos Brown Jr. Pull out a knife, get up from his seat behind arena and prepare to thrust a blade into her neck. The most enraging and unacceptable part of this story is that her death was entirely preventable. Decarlos Brown never should have been on that train that night. In fact, he should have been behind bars. Decarlos Brown has been charged with crimes no fewer than 14 times dating back to 2011, including for armed robbery, felony larceny, breaking and entering in shoplifting.
Dave Rubin
So it's just worth noting for a second, like, think really how much better she is than Jen Psaki or Corinne Jean Pierre. Just imagine what, not only is she better at her job because she's a better communicator and she knows what she's talking about, but think about the ways they would be spinning this and all that. She's just laying out flat truths. So, okay, I wanna just lay this out this way. There are four parts, I would say, to this story. There's, you know, well, I guess there's five. There's a murder. There is a murder that should not have taken place. That's number one. Okay, so then the other four would be. This is, this illustrates the chaos that is happening in blue cities that you are well aware of. Then there's the racial element, which doesn't fit the intersectional calculator. That's number two. Then there's the criminal justice portion of it, which is that we have this rot system where people can be convicted of things 14 times, have 16 mug shots, et cetera, et cetera, and still get out. And then of course there's the big one, which is the media reaction, or I suppose I should say lack of reaction to it until we force them to do it. Here's a bit more from Levitt about the Democrat judge who released decarlos Brown.
Conservative Commentator
Brown was arrested yet again in January of this past year. A Democrat judge who will, I will add, was a supporter, a strong supporter of former Vice president Kamala Harris released this insane criminal once again without requiring him to pay any bail. He simply had to sign a written promise to return for his court hearing. Think about how crazy it is to ask a career criminal, someone who by definition repeatedly breaks the law, to just sign a written promise and come back again another day. This is madness. This monster should have been locked up and arena should still be alive. But Democrat politicians, liberal judges, and weak prosecutors would rather virtue signal than lock up criminals and protect their communities. And perhaps most shamefully of all, the majority of the media, many outlets in this room decided that her murder was not worth reporting on originally because it does not fit a preferred narrative. Many of the journalists in this room spilled plenty of ink trying to smear Daniel Penny for defending a subway car from a deranged lunatic in New York City. But none of those same reporters lift a finger to write stories about an actual murderer.
Dave Rubin
All right, so I think you understand why this story is so important now because it's hitting so many touch points. Phoenix just made a good point. So I said there were five parts. There's really six parts. So murder, like just that there is just murder happening. Okay, so that's the easy one. Right? Then I said there's this issue about blue city crime. We get that. So that's two. There's the race element and how it's sort of backwards in this one. There's the criminal justice element of these people that go into jail and then just get out by, oh, I signed a note saying I won't do it again. And then the other one, what I would say, which is really interesting, is that at the most human level, this woman, 23 year old refugee from Ukraine, Put aside what your feelings about Ukraine, Russia, anything else, she fled a war. She was a refugee from a war zone, who, who then accomplished the dream, the dream of people all over the world, which is to come to the United States of America to pursue her happiness, to live a free life, to see if she could make it. And then, I mean, think about the. Just like existentially, what that is. Like, I don't know how long ago she got here, but let's say it was about a year ago that she got here, but she left the war zone only to be murdered on the streets of New York City or I'm sorry of Charlotte. It's like, it's really hard to kind of wrap your brain around that. So she survived a war, but couldn't survive a US City. Now I want to show you Donald Trump's statement on this and then we'll have a bit more on that judge. For far too long, Americans have been forced to put up with Democrat run cities that set loose savage, bloodthirsty criminals to prey on innocent people. Really very, very innocent people in every place.
Guest/Panelist
They control radical left judges, politicians and activists. And they've adopted a policy of catch.

Guest/Panelist
This is the picture of it.
Dave Rubin
And this is a picture of the woman. A beautiful young girl that never had problems in life with a magnificent future in this country. And now she's dead. She was slaughtered by a deranged monster who was roaming free after 14 prior arrests. We have to respond with force and strength. We have to be vicious just like they are. It's the only thing they understand. 24 of the top 25 most dangerous cities in America are run by Democrat mayors. 50 people were murdered in Chicago in recent weeks with hundreds being shot. And it's time to stop this madness. Yeah, it is time to stop this madness. Right. Why is it that in our inner cities people are now afraid to go out at night? We played you the video yesterday of that young woman in New York City who did a selfie video because a guy was chasing her around the subway. Why is it people are just afraid to go to the subway altogether? Like all of the things, the drug addicts on the streets, all of that stuff. Also kind of keep in mind for a moment that had Donald Trump not won this election and it was Kamala or even it was auto pen guy or whatever, it's like they would never be giving that speech right there. And thank God once again that we have the alt media and that Elon bought X because this never would have even bubbled up. Now there's a bit more coming out about the judge here and we did a little research and there's something really interesting happening here. So first listen to this. This is from Lauren Witzka, who is a commentator on X. The judge who released decarlos Brown Jr's murderer of Irina Zarutska was Magistrate Judge Teresa Stokes. She freed Brown in January of 2025, approximately seven months before the fatal stabbing on August 22, 2025. She did not attend law school. She did not have to pass the bar. She was completely unqualified and hand selected and appointed to the position to protect criminal blacks in her community, it's time for white people to start doing the same. Okay, so she editorializes a little bit at the end there. But when I read this tweet, I was actually shocked. Are you telling me that a judge, a magistrate or regular judge somehow doesn't have to pass the bar exam? How is that possible? How is the person who's ruling on the law can actually have sort of less qualifications than the people who are making the arguments? So we did a little research on this and it is in fact true. Listen to this from ChatGPT. Some judges don't need to pass the bar because certain roles, like local or magistrate judges handle limited routine cases. States allow non lawyers in these positions relying on training instead of full attorney qualifications. Boy, do you guys see. Now if we were to start connecting this to a little bit of DEI and everything else, how corrupt a system would become. So you allow there's routine cases. You could sort of think about it probably as remember if you're a child of the 80s, you remember the show Night court, right? So as people come in for little things, petty larceny, you know, someone was drinking out on the street at night, whatever it might be, the judge who is put in place there. Even though the lawyers have to pass the bar, of course, to practice law in any state in the union, the judge there can just be appointed by somebody and trained well. Now do you see? Look, I don't have the exact connection to the DEI part, but do you see why this would make sense if you just have a system? Well, we just have to train people. They don't have to know anything particular about the law, but we have to train them. And then you could see how ideology would leak in. Listen to this from North Carolina Congressman Tim Moore. Today I led a letter calling for the removal of magistrate judge Theresa Stokes, who released a 14 time offender who went on to murder Irina Zarutska in Charlotte. This tragedy was preventable. There must be accountability. North Carolinians deserve better and they damn well do. This woman should never step foot in a court again. I think we should start, hopefully someone over there, maybe this congressman. How about we do a little research? Let's find out about her training. Let's find out a little bit about her and her political beliefs. Let's find out about the entire system. And then maybe you need to rethink the idea of magistrate judges who don't have to say pass the bar exam and who just have to be trained, likely by activists who are in the system. Bit more on everything happening Here from Colin Rugg. Breaking. The Department of justice has smacked decarlos Dewan Brown Jr. With a federal charge after the horrific slaying of Ukrainian refugee Irina Zarutska. FBI Director Kash Patel and Attorney General Pam Bondi say they're seeking maximum penalty. The brutal attack on Arena Zarutska on the Charlotte light rail was a disgraceful act that should never happen in America. Patel said the FBI jumped in to assist in this investigation immediately to ensure justice is served and the perpetrator is never released from jail to kill again. I want to thank Attorney General Pam Bondi for her pursuit of today's federal charges, which are the first step towards delivering justice for arena and her family, as well as the millions of Americans who deserve to live in our great American cities free from being targeted by violent criminals. I've directed my attorneys to federally prosecute to Carlos Brown Jr. A repeat offender with a history of violent crime, for murder. Bondi said, we will seek the maximum penalty for this unforgivable act of violence. He will never again see the light of day as a free man. So the question now is if this happened in Charlotte, so what does this have to do with the federal government? So the federal government's going to go after him as well. In a normal murder case, this would be left to the state to deal with it. But there may be something here as it pertains to federal hate crimes. This is U.S. attorney General from North Carolina, Russ Ferguson talking about hate crimes as it pertains to de Carlos. It's a flip on what we think of as hate crimes. Hate crimes are supposed to only be white people against brown people. This one's different. Listen to Ferguson. That there's potential for other federal charges.
Guest/Panelist
Can you confirm that maybe includes hate.
Dave Rubin
Crime or racially motivated crime of some sort? Is that something that you were.
Guest/Panelist
That is you looking into? Yes, we're looking into every available charge in this case. If we find facts that this was.
Dave Rubin
Gender motivated or race motivated, we will.
Guest/Panelist
Absolutely bring a federal civil rights charge in this case.
Dave Rubin
Okay, so a federal civil rights charge. So do you understand that that's what's going on here? It's not. You can't just magically be like, oh, this case is really, really big. We're gonna suddenly make it a federal case. There has to be a reason for it. And the reason for it in this case, if they're coming with the hate crime charge, that is gonna be it. And we checked and let me just read to you what a federal hate crime. Actually, let me Read the actual textbook definition. A federal hate crime is. A hate crime is a. A hate crime is a criminal offense, such as assault or vandalism that is motivated in whole or in part by offenders bias against a victim's protected characteristic, including race, religion, sexual orientation, gender, disability, or national origin. Now, what's interesting about this, now you might argue, and I think you can make a cogent argument, that hate crimes shouldn't exist. Meaning the idea that just because you do it because of someone's race, that that shouldn't make it any worse. Right? So you randomly attack a black person, you randomly attack a Jew or a white person or an Asian person. That inherently doesn't make the crime worse. So there's some argument around that however these laws exist. I'm not even making that argument. I'm just trying to be fair about it. But can you put. Can you go put that back up? Note it doesn't say it doesn't count to white people. So the offender's bias against a victim protected. Protected characteristics, including race, religion, sexual orientation, gender, disability, or national origin. So the idea there is, oh, sexual orientation. If a gay person is attacked over their sexual orientation, however, you could attack someone just because they're straight. Some crazed trans lunatic could attack a straight person. Guess what? That would then be a hate crime. A black person attacking a white person by this definition is a hate crime. So this is going to be considered a federal hate crime, and we shall see where it falls out. Now we're going to get. We're going to jump to a little bit of the media portion of this, which, again, I'm always interested in that because, you know, the truth exists and they're always muddling it so we can't quite see it. But this is gonna get a little harder for them to muddle.
Guest/Panelist
Thank God.

First PDS debt, and then we'll get to it. The system isn't broken. It's rigged. And if you're buried in debt, that's exactly how they want it. Big banks profit when you're desperate. Creditors win when you lose. But you don't have to play their game. That's where PDS debt comes in. They've helped hundreds of thousands of people break free from credit cards, personal loans, collections, and medical bills. PDS goes beyond the numbers. They take time to understand your unique financial situation and build a personalized plan designed just for you. There's no minimum credit card score. Their goal is simple. Help you save more, pay off your debt faster, and put money back where it belongs in your pocket. That's why PDS debt is rated A plus by the Better Business Bureau with thousands of five star reviews on Google and a five star rating on Trustpilot. And here's the best part. You're just 60 seconds away from being debt free. Get your free assessment and find the best option for you right now@pdsdebt.com Ruben that's pdsdebt.com Rubin take control of your money. Take control of your future. Do it today with PDS debt. All right, so now let's get to the media portion of this. Of course, the meta story around everything is that the media wants you to see certain things when it fits and doesn't want you to see other things when it doesn't fit. Let's jump over to CNN and Abby Phillip, who, as I always say, this is the dumbest woman on television. There is simply nothing behind her eyes. She is up there temporarily at 8 o', clock, I guess the show is on and they will put her up for a year and then they'll replace her. It's just about the chair that sits there. Anyway, here they are. This is from I think two days ago. And they are, she's with Van Jones and they somehow try to make this about Charlie Kirk. Of course, maga Charlie Kirk and that there's no evidence that this was racially motivated. Take a look.
Guest/Panelist
Want to be there.
Dave Rubin
And it's about forcing to be there.
Guest/Panelist
When you are mentally ill, you have a hard time knowing that you are mentally ill.
Dave Rubin
But also, I mean, people like Charlie.
Guest/Panelist
Kirk fan, they've been looking for opportunities.
Dave Rubin
To make this some sort of like reciprocal George Floyd situation.
Conservative Commentator
And that's the part that I think.
Dave Rubin
He'S almost giving away the game.
Guest/Panelist
And it's sad to see a lot.
Dave Rubin
Of people going along with it. You know, let me just say a couple things. One is what happened to that young woman was horrible. And it's everybody's nightmare, if you're in any public space, subway, whatever, that something bad is going to happen to you or somebody you care about. So it does strike a chord. We don't know why that man did what he did. And for Charlie Kirk to say we know he did it because she's white, when there's no evidence of that. It's just pure race mongering, hate mongering. It's wrong. Okay, so first off, let me just tell you a little bit about how these shows work. That was absolutely intentional. Abby Phillips spoke to producers and they wanted to make this about Charlie Kirk. He's an avatar for sort of maga, Right? He's very outspoken. Okay, fine. But then Van goes in there and he says the nice part first. He often is crying, but he says the nice part first, which is the true part, that this is an unimaginable nightmare. Nobody would want this to happen. You know, blah, blah, blah. But then he makes it seem that this has nothing to do with race. Well, why don't we show you something that will perhaps slightly blow the Van Jones spot. We don't know why that man did what he did. And for Charlie Kirk to say we know he did it because she's white when there's no evidence of that is just pure race. Race mongering. Hate mongering. Okay, so there you have Van saying that Charlie's making this up for political purposes. And then only hours later, more video is released. I got that white girl. I got that white girl. Again, I know that you watching this and me, we don't care about the racial angle. It's a horrific thing that happens either way. But we do know that if the races had been flipped, that Van would be making this about race. And this is just the standard way that these people play all of these games. And the more that they've hidden all of this racial stuff, the more that it's bubbling up. If you're concerned that Charlie Kirk and a portion of the right or a portion of the people online are becoming racist, it probably has more to do with your behavior than anything else. Now, I saw that clip that of Van saying that this was about Charlie and he was looking for it and whatever. And then I saw the video of the guy saying, I got that white girl. I tweeted this out. It went pretty crazy online. Van Jones. This was yesterday afternoon. Van Jones has to issue an apology to Charlie live on air today or should never be allowed in the CNN building again, as far as I know. Can we check Van's feed? Did we check it in the last 20 minutes or so? He has not issued an apology. Abby Phillips should have opened her show last night and said, on my show yesterday, one of my guests said something that has been proven to be demonstratively false because there is video of it, but she didn't do that either. So Van was acting as an activist, which is what he is. I don't know if he considers himself a journalist, but he's an activist, and he just. He got one wrong because it didn't fit his. It didn't fit his narrative. Right. But Abby, Phillip and the people at CNN how does CNN forget Abby Phillip having to issue the apology? CNN at the top of the show yesterday on our show, yes, it's an opinion show, but someone said something that was so profoundly 180 of the truth that we have to address that. Actually the killer himself moments later said, I got that white girl. But I'm guessing CNN didn't do it last night. I will gladly correct myself if someone can show me that they did do it last night. And is there anything on Van's Twitter feed and of course on Vance Twitter feed, Think how easy it would be. Think how easy it would be. You know my policy on corrections here. And if I make a mistake or I misspeak or whatever, I love doing it. I love doing it because, well, I don't know, for some reason I suppose it comes natural to me, but I like doing it because it's like I'm a human. I'm a human being sitting in a chair wearing a jacket telling you the news, just like these people. I'm a human being and human beings are flawed. So why is it that you guys can't even do that? I had one other tweet that a lot of people thought encapsulated this quite well. The left has cried false racism for so long that they now have to bury their heads in the sand when real racism literally murders a young woman in cold blood. So if that quote right there, I got that white girl. If that's not enough to show you that this was racist, I don't know what it is. Now again, you can make a cogent argument that whether it was racist or not is irrelevant. Right. If it had been a black man stabbing a black woman for no reason, a young 23 year old beautiful black woman for no reason, does that make it worse or better? Like you absolutely can make that argument. But in a world where we are, where they push a fake racist narrative on us all the time, then when something real pops up, they have to run and hide from it. Right? And that is the deranged part. Here's an edit of Van Jones that I think you'll understand why we're showing. It is very clear that this country is still struggling with racism. We still have racism showing up in almost every institution. We don't know why that man did what he did. And for Charlie Kirk to say we know he did it because she's white when there's no evidence of that, it's just pure race mongering, hate mongering, it's wrong. Yeah. So Van, it's Like, I know he's not horrible. He's not a horrible person in the scheme of like where a lot of these people shake out, right? He's not one of the worst. But dude, you're on TV years ago telling us that our institutions are racist and everything else and there's all this racism here. So you're going out of your way to say that even though I guess in some sense you were right, our institutions were racist. They were racist against Asians and Jews and white people. But that's not exactly what you were talking about. Of course. And here in this case, when it actually is about racism, you go out of your way to say it's not about racism, only to be proven wrong moments later and then not have the like the decency as a human being. Like, you got to apologize to Charlie Kirk. You may hate Charlie Kirk, you may disagree with everything Charlie Kirk says, but you guys intentionally, that's what the producers did. We're gonna make this segment about this murder about Charlie Kirk. And then you. He absolutely lied about his position. So I guess you don't have to do anything because you're on CNN and there's no standards there. You're not going to be smacked on the wrist, they're not going to dock your pay. You don't have to do anything. But my recommendation as a human being, Van Jones, would be just go ahead and do it and you'll gain a little bit of respect maybe from people that you don't respect. I guess that would be the problem. My friend Winston Marshall was on Fox last night with Jesse Watters talking about this, of course, asymmetry when it comes to race and these murders that I'm.
Guest/Panelist
Witnessing a two tier America. And it seems to me without question, had the perpetrator been a white male with the same victim, we'd have been told, oh look, America is systemically misogynistic. Toxic masculinity. If it had been a black perpetrator with a white.
Dave Rubin
If it had been a white perpetrator.
Guest/Panelist
With a black victim, we'd have been told America is systemically racist.
Dave Rubin
Racist to the core.
Guest/Panelist
In fact, that has happened on several occasions. When this happens, what do we hear in response?
Dave Rubin
Well, actually it seems that most of the corporate media have been schtum about the thing. And you mentioned DEI there.
Guest/Panelist
DEI is the same thing. It's two tier. It's one rule for one group of people and another rule for another group of people. I say this coming from Britain. In Britain we have had decades of two tier system and there are terrible consequences. First of all, there are more victims if you don't punish these people, if they are not incarcerated and properly, if they don't meet the heavy hand of.
Dave Rubin
The law, they commit offences again.
Guest/Panelist
Secondly, and now this is what we're seeing in Britain every weekend, almost every day, is protests.
Dave Rubin
People have had enough. If people feel that the system is.
Guest/Panelist
Treating one group differently to another, they don't resent the system, they resent the other group.
Dave Rubin
Ah, that's a great line. They don't resist. They don't resent the system, they resent the other group. So you want racists, you're making racists. It reminds me of that clip that I show you all the time of Peterson, Jordan Peterson, on Rogan a couple years ago, where he's talking about, boy, you crazy lefties, you guys are ruining so many things that wait till you see what happens on the right. And God forbid, this thing, the Pandora's box, gets fully opened here and we will end up in some sort of crazy race riot. That's again, why I'm saying if you just remove race from this altogether, if you actually were trying to be a colorblind society, it shouldn't matter to anyone the race of any of this. But within the prism that these people are always making us look at everything through where we should always see race all the time, whether you're watching a children's show or it's something breaking in the news, or whether it has something to do with sports or anything else, everything's always about race. Well, congratulations now. Now you got one that doesn't fit the. It doesn't fit the narrative that you like. And the fallout from that, I think, is going to be quite disastrous across the board. But it does not have to be everywhere and it doesn't have to be all the time. And there are places where it is not happening. We're going to get to some of those places in just a second. But first chapter, if you or a loved one are on Medicare or turning 65 soon, you need to hear this. Medicare enrollment is complicated and misinformation is everywhere. The more confused you are, the easier it is for scammers to push you into overpriced plans that make them money while pretending they're unbiased. In fact, Trump's Department of Justice recently sued three of the biggest Medicare brokers in America for allegedly doing exactly that. And the victims, everyday Americans, like you. That's why I trust chapter, chapter's advisors make Medicare simple and always put you first, they listen carefully, compare every plan and help you find the most savings.

Call CH Chapter today at 332-867-0207. Most people say they wish they'd called sooner, okay? So it does not have to be like this. And it is not this way in all of the states in the United States. And here is a line from a guy that I often quote that proves just that. I believe that decline is a choice. I believe success is attainable, and I know that freedom is worth fighting for. Okay? So decline is a choice. If you live in a place that releases criminals without them having done their whole sentence, that allows people to not go to jail even though they've, you know, been a repeat offender 14 times, that, that encourages mayhem, that says, you know what? Oh, jump the turnstile, don't pay. The rest of you who pay are all suckers. That allows drugs on the streets, that allows petty theft. Oh, you want to sell, you want to steal $700 worth of deodorant? It's a lot of, lot of things of degree from cvs. Go ahead and do it. It is a choice. It is a choice. It's a choice by you, the people, because you the people. We the people are the ones that elect these buffoons. So since Desantis was the one that coined that phrase, as far as I know, decline is the choice. Let's find out a little bit about what's going on here in Florida where we choose something a little bit different. It should come as no surprise to anybody who's been alive for the past.
Guest/Panelist
Six years that Florida is a law and order state.
Dave Rubin
We believe in supporting the people that wear the uniform. We believe in holding criminals accountable. The result has been our crime rate is at a 50 year low. You didn't see cities burning down during the BLM riots here. When Hamas tried to take over roads in Orlando and Miami, they were removed in 11 and 13 minutes respectively, including.
Guest/Panelist
By Florida Highway Patrol in Central Florida.
Dave Rubin
We don't let the inmates run the asylum. We're not going to let people's quality of life be destroyed because we're embracing toxic ideologies and the WOKE agenda. And we've been very clear on that. So it's a choice. And if you live in a place that has made the choice, well, then you're in a lot of trouble. Because when the power is taken away from the people, oh, the system will just protect me and do all these things. We see what the fruits of that are. We showed you this video yesterday. We've shown it to you before, but I love it. It is worth showing again, and we're going to show it to you many other times. What will happen to you if you walk into my house in Florida?
Guest/Panelist
As to the person we don't know.
Dave Rubin
What homeowner, which homeowner shot at him.
Guest/Panelist
I guess they think that they did something wrong, which they did not. If somebody's breaking in your house, you're more than welcome to shoot them in Santa Rosa County. We prefer that you do, actually.
Dave Rubin
So whoever that was, you're not in trouble.
Guest/Panelist
Come see us. We have a gun safety class we put on every other Saturday. And if you take that, you'll shoot a lot better and hopefully you'll save taxpayers money.
Dave Rubin
That's how we do it. And it's not just about saving taxpayers money. You're going to save lives, actually. If someone. Because you're. Because the very threat of knowing, oh, you're going to break into someone's house and they might be armed and shoot you will increase the. Or will decrease the desire of the criminal to break into the house. I love. It's just like, it's a throwaway line. We'd prefer if you do. And it's like, yeah, you're gonna make it easier for the police to do policing if people properly can take care of their property and their family, et cetera, et cetera. So that's Florida. Now let's jump to a place that really became the epicenter of all this. Obviously, we're talking about Charlotte right now as it pertains to this specific case, but the city that we've been talking about for about a week because of the General mayhem and 7,000 murders in 10 years, of course, is Chicago. Nick Shirley, who's a. He's a great. He gets out on the ground in some really wacky situations. Well, he went to the hood in Chicago and he talked to some of the locals.
Guest/Panelist
And what would happen if a cop.
Dave Rubin
Pulled up right now and they saw us with this thing I'm battling. And now, after your brother got shot, how do you feel about gun violence in here? Are you ready for the gun violence to stop or.
Guest/Panelist
Hell, no.
Dave Rubin
Living here in Chicago, we've been talking with these Guys, right here. And is it pretty dangerous to be walking around these streets?
Guest/Panelist
Hell yeah. I ain't going to bother.
Dave Rubin
Is that why you're walking around with a shisty?
Guest/Panelist
I got up on by four pipes.
Dave Rubin
In one day and that was. That was the first day I ever even knew how to hit a lake on my grandma.
Guest/Panelist
No come through playing we gonna leave.
Dave Rubin
Your ass right here in this line.
Guest/Panelist
That threat, however you want to take it.
Dave Rubin
Okay? Now the sun has set and it's getting a little dark out here. You're just out here puffing. Don't puff in my face. It gives me a headache. How old are the kids out here when they first get their first guns initiated?
Guest/Panelist
14 and like that, 11. Man, they out here, they just trying.
Dave Rubin
To do what they trying to do. You switch me sides, don't want me next time. You got me covered, right?
Guest/Panelist
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You're all Steve, you know what's going on.
Dave Rubin
Okay, so we do got some backup if anything does happen.
Guest/Panelist
Yeah, yeah.
Dave Rubin
You got one bullet shot right here, one right there.
Guest/Panelist
Yeah.
Dave Rubin
And then you have a literal bullet in your rib. Yeah. What kind of bullet you got in here?
Conservative Commentator
It's like a 40.
Dave Rubin
40. Ain't that hurt when I go like that?
Guest/Panelist
Yeah, no, I can't feel that.
Dave Rubin
What do the girls think about the bolt when they take the shirt off? They're like, dang, this guy got some.
Guest/Panelist
Respect on his name.
Dave Rubin
Hey, we trying to touch it in.
Guest/Panelist
I don't know how we come.
Dave Rubin
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Nick, I have two words for you. Health insurance. Let's make sure that you're paying your premiums and you're caught up, man, because this is not going to end well. I mean, he's brave for doing that, but look, it illustrates what's going on in these inner cities. What is happening. Why do those young people have guns? Why are they proud about the criminality and the shooting and all of those things? And again, why is it that for years, when anyone talked about this on mainstream media and it really was only two people, Hannity and O'Reilly on Fox, they were called racist. They were absolutely called racist for caring about the fact that young black people were in this situation getting killed and everything else.
Guest/Panelist
So you.
Dave Rubin
Look, most of the national conversation right now is about policing, but there is something else that needs to be discussed here. Because people don't just start murdering people for no reason. Right? Like, yes. Is there a mental health component to this? So do a certain amount of people have, like, screwy brain chemistry and do awful things and maybe don't get the help that they need. Yes, but there's another portion of this something that my friend Larry Elder has been talking about for decades. Decades. Thomas Sowell is talking about it. Larry Elder's been talking about. Many people have actually been talking about over the last couple years, or at least it's become a little more okay to talk about, which is around family and the percentage of families that are broken within the white and black community. So I'm just going to read some numbers to you. These are just the numbers. So black families. This is from ChatGPT. Black families. In 1960, 65 to 75% of children lived with two parents. That's pretty good. 1960, in 2020, only 37% lived with two biological parents. In 1965, 24% of Black babies were born out of wedlock. In 2020, 70% of Black babies now occur outside of marriage. 55% of children live in father absent homes in white families. 1960, 93% lived with two parents. 2020, 75% live with two parents. 1965, only 3 to 4% of births were outside of wedlock. In 2020, 27 to 28% of births outside wedlock. So it's going in the wrong direction on both white and black. And again, I don't really care about the race thing, but if you were to say, do you think there's maybe a connection between young people who get involved in drugs and criminality and everything else because there's an absentee father or there's some other stuff going on at home that's not proper and blah, blah, blah, we all kind of know that that's fundamentally right if you have a good family structure at home. And of course, I absolutely believe families can come in all sorts of colors and stripes and everything else, but if you have a good structure at home, that's kind of the basis for everything. That's why the family is the basic building block of a functionality society. This is a video from a couple months ago, but I think it also illustrates how they never want you to see reality. And Jasmine Crockett, lady Eyelashes, who's become a big star, big star with the Democrats, who apparently was a lawyer. She passed the bar exam. The magistrate judge can't pass the bar exam, but this woman passed the bar exam. I mean, that's a pretty low. That's a pretty low bar. Thank you. Here she is talking about how 80% of the violent crimes in our country are done by white supremacists.
Conservative Commentator
And if you really want to know.
Dave Rubin
Who the criminals are in this country.
Conservative Commentator
You can Google it.
Dave Rubin
You don't have to trust me, but.
Conservative Commentator
The people that commit 80% of the most violent crimes in this country are white supremacists. Yet for whatever reason, they sit and they serve at the pleasure of the President. They are the ones that were there on January 6th tearing our democracy down physically.
Dave Rubin
And now we have them tearing us.
Conservative Commentator
Down right here from.
Dave Rubin
Okay, so the usual January 6th, but you don't have. She says you don't have to trust me. Well, hot damn, I don't trust you, lady. And that's why we did a little research here. This from ChatGPT, she said 80% of the most violent crimes, white supremacists. That seemed a bit much to me. While white supremacists are indeed responsible for some extremist violence, the data does not support the broader claim that they commit 80% of the most violent crimes. Overall, a Reuters summary of ADL data shows that in 2022, over 80% of extremist related murders were committed by white supremacists. But that refers strictly to extremist murders, not all violent crime. In the U.S. house documents. And another source indicates that in 2019, 78% of domestic extremist killings were by white supremacists within the subset of right wing extremist violence. I don't have to read the rest. The point is, if you look at it in a very, very narrow lens, something she said there is kind of true. But that's. You'd have to admit all of the other murder, all of the other murder that takes place. But also putting all of that aside, lady, why does that excite you? Why are you so excited to tell us about white extremist murder? You are black. I don't care that you're black, but you are black. And I would imagine as a black person that is always telling us how we are all racist white supremacists. It seems to me you would care about the people of Chicago or maybe of Houston who are getting killed, who happen to be black, but you never do that. This next clip, well, chalk it up to a broken clock is right twice a day because Joe Scarborough, who's obviously an utter buffoon and a ridiculous clown of a human being over on the televised mental institution over there, he gets on with this guy Eddie Glaud. We've shown you a couple clips of him in the last few days. He's usually crying, this guy. Again, he does not cry here. So that's. He's definitely toughening up in these hard times. But Eddie's trying to explain how more cops doesn't reduce crime. And even Joe, even Joe is like, dude, why? Let's think about policing differently as we try to address an issue of safety.
Guest/Panelist
Which every community deserves. Does that make sense?
Dave Rubin
It does. Well, Joe, take it well. But, but the thing is, you talk.
Guest/Panelist
About how cops on the streets won't make a difference.
Dave Rubin
I will tell you that one poll after another has suggested otherwise.
Guest/Panelist
When you speak to black Americans, when.
Dave Rubin
You speak to poorer Americans. No, Joe, I'm not just speaking as an academic. I'm speaking as a black man who has been reared in the United States where with a deep seated suspicion about.
Guest/Panelist
Whether or not police actually are engaged.
Dave Rubin
In protecting our communities. Right. Having, having had the talk right, from, from a, from a young man, from a young boy. So there's not this relationship to the police that you're, that you're presupposing. And let me just say this, I think. No, no, no, no. Hold on, let me just make this point. Hold on, hold on, Addie. I'm not presupposing. I'm not presupposing anything. I am giving you data. And by the way, are you live. Are you living the same experience that you're talking about that we've talked about on this show for 18 years with you and Gene Robinson, everybody else.
Guest/Panelist
But is your experience in Princeton the.
Dave Rubin
Same as bodies in Anacostia? Of course not. Of course not. There are class differences. There are class differences that.
Guest/Panelist
Complications in Anacostia.
Dave Rubin
Yeah. Well done, Joe. I can't believe it. I'll give you some credit here, like, well done, man. First off, you see what Glaud tries to do there? Everything is about his lived experience. It has nothing to do with data or anything else. Right, but the point is, where is he? He's in Princeton. In Princeton, Right. So it's like, yeah, you're in a place that has probably high economic status and safety with police and everything else. So you're not that concerned about policing. Why wouldn't you want more? Are you saying, are you saying that in the inner cities where these young people are being killed, are you saying that if they sent more cops in there, the cops would be just looking to execute these people? That seems to be the inclination or the implication of what they are always saying that sending police into places where there is mayhem means that we're gonna start executing young black people. It's completely psychotic. If two blocks from my house, regardless of race, there was A drug den. We knew that there were young people wandering around with machine guns or, or a series of other things and there was just general criminality happening. Would I want the police or not want. No, no, just let it be, let it be. I wouldn't want to upset anybody. It's just profoundly absurd. But if your intersectional matrix, if your view of the world puts everything is about racism at the top, your policy positions are going to be quite stupid and actually, as I said earlier, probably create conditions for other people to actually become racist. We're going to connect some of this to the sanctuary city part of this, which is an immigration thing. But these things are not disconnected. We'll do that in just a sec. But first, 1775 Coffee, guys, let's be honest. Most coffee gives you that quick little jolt and then what, a crash? Jitters that mid morning brain fog and before you know it, you're already pouring a second or third cup just to make it to lunchtime. But what if your coffee did more than just wake you up?

Fuel your body, protect your future. Rejuvenate. All right, so we're going to connect this to the illegal immigration situation and the sanctuary city situation and these stories. The meta story around it is very similar. What were we told for years about illegal immigration? It's not happening, don't worry about it. Then find finally, the videos break online. Mainstream media tells you, oh, you're not really seeing what you're seeing or it's only because racist or people are telling you you're seeing what you're seeing. And then eventually they realize it's a problem. It's the exact same thing as the criminal thing. Right. It's not what's happening in the cities. Don't worry about it. Oh, the videos are only being shown because crazy right wingers like Charlie Kirkwood. Oh, it's actually happening. Watch this. This is former ICE director Jonathan Fahey explaining exactly what was always true and everyone should have always known was true, which is that sanctuary cities should not exist in the first place.
Conservative Commentator
As you're watching this, and we're expecting this impending action in Chicago and other sanctuary cities, do you see this as the most effective approach?
Guest/Panelist
Yes, I do in a couple of ways. One, these sanctuary cities, as you know, like Chicago, when they arrest an illegal alien on another crime, a state crime, they will not even turn them over to ice. They'll release them back in the community, making it harder for ICE to do their job, which is to do, deport the most serious criminal aliens. So that part of it is effective to get the most serious criminals out. The second part of it is a deterrent aspect because some of these sanctuary cities, like Chicago, probably are not going to change their policies because Governor Pritzker wants to be the Democratic nominee for president, but many others will. So this will make easier for to do their jobs when they can get criminals arrested in jail rather than having to go out in the community, which they're having to to do in Chicago and Boston and places like that. So this is going to be incredibly effective. The citizens of Chicago will be thankful. Most of them will be safer because of this. And I think all overall, it's a major win and it's very important that it's done because Chicago, Illinois, Boston, Massachusetts, any of these places, they're not entitled to have their own immigration policies.
Dave Rubin
Yes. First off, every word he said there was absolutely true. How did we. How did things get so far down the rabbit hole here that anyone thought the idea of a sanctuary city was right or legal in the first right. The federal government's in charge of the border. And the fact that some cities were like, okay, you can just come here, just come here and you're gonna use our services and whatever, like that in and of itself was wrong. Right. And never put to a referendum of the people, that's one thing. But then the fact that local law enforcement, as he points out, they would arrest people for, say, some sort of petty crime, and then they would be. Look at their record and be like, oh, and you're not even a legal member of the United States. But then because we're a sanctuary city. We're just not even gonna put in a phone call. Hey, FYI, we got the MS.13 guy here. He was stealing a Pepsi. Like it's just, it's just profoundly absurd. And people are realizing that this is not tenable much longer. It just is not. Now let's jump over to the televised mental institution known as msnbc, at least for a little while longer. And they had Tom Homan on. And Tom Homan of course is in charge of taking the illegals and getting them out of the country. And Mika Brzezinski, who's married to Joe Scarborough in a marriage maiden Mordor itself here she is completely making up that this notion, we've talked about it before, that ICE is disappearing people, they're just, people are just wandering. And then it's like, what's his name? Not Bane. It's like Thanos. Boom. They're just gone.
Conservative Commentator
I'd like to, I'd love some transparency.
Dave Rubin
As to why a lot of these people have been disappeared. You see, you have data. We would love to see it.
Conservative Commentator
The American people should see this data.
Guest/Panelist
Well, here's the rhetoric again, right? You just met, disappeared. That is a ridiculous thing to say. Because ISIS doing the same thing we've done for decades. But because of the last four years, ICE wasn't allowed to enforce a law. ICE was told to sit back and you can't arrest an illegal alien for simply being here legally. You got got to wait till they commit a serious crime and get convicted of that crime. That's the secretary Mayorkas instructions work. And that's why you saw so much, there's so much crime in this country coming from the illegal alien population. Because there's no, there's no law enforcement. But we're doing the same thing right now that we did when I started back in 1984. ICE agents are enforcing the laws enacted by Congress. They're appropriated funding enforcement laws. If you don't like ICE is doing, they go protest Congress however, to say we disappear people. No, we're arresting people that are in the country illegally and they are public safety threat.
Dave Rubin
Yeah. So show me someone who has disappeared. Mika, you just say it and it's, you put it out there and you think by the, by the very nature of you saying it, it's true, it's just not how it works. Again, he perfectly illustrates the point I made earlier that Mayorkas was telling these sanctuary cities and it was the mayors in these cities and the governors like, okay, if they commit, they're Here illegally in the first place, which is illegal. But if they commit some kind of crime, don't coordinate with ice. Don't coordinate. So actively break the law. And all that Trump and Homan and the rest of them are trying to do is just get things back to an even playing field. You break the law, you're illegal, you gotta go. It's not racist. It has nothing to do with disappearing. You don't need five righteous gemstones to put in a big glove to do it. It, it's just, it's just. That's it. That's it. Uh, I thought this was an interesting one. This is from the leading report yesterday, breaking ICE arrests Guatemalan illegal alien, sexual predator. And he appears to be a little person or a dwarf. And you know, what do you call a criminal dwarf going down the stairs, a little con descending. I mean, I should have had a pie thrown in my face for that one. That was just terrible. Let's shift for a moment altogether and talk about the over drugging of America, because there's a guy by the name of Bobby Kennedy and he would prefer that you have a little less poison in your system, that you stop giving your children cereal that's going to kill them things of that nature. Thus he's become a crazed right wing maniac and everything else. And because he now is actually changing things, a lot of people are really pissed at him. But here he is talking about how yesterday Donald Trump signed an executive order so that we will not have TV drug ads that hide what they might actually do to you. Kind of like every other country in the nation, in the world, the President.
Guest/Panelist
Just signed an executive order. That's an historic change and the way that pharmaceutical advertising is done on television. And the order basically reinstates or gives us now the opportunity. Opportunity to reinstate the 1997 rules. Prior to 1997, pharmaceutical advertisers were required to put all the side effects on their ads. Many of them didn't advertise because it lengthened because of what it did to the length of the advertising and the removal of that requirement. In 1997, FDA changed the rule to allow them to report the side effects on a website or on a telephone. And they know they only had to report a few of them on television. And that triggered a proliferation of these ads.
Dave Rubin
Think how crazy this is. So Trump signs the executive order, so they're going to have to do this. But when you watch all of these ads that we see all the time, they've already been putting a huge amount of them in there. What he's saying is that there's actually way more. And we know this because at the end of all of these ads where the cartoon cloud's following the guy because he, he's depressed, which that would make anyone depressed if cartoon cloud was following you. They tell you, and then, okay, you've restless leg syndrome, you're going to shit in your pants, you're going to have thoughts of suicide, you're going to kill your sister. And then they do that real quick. But then at the end of that, then there's all this text that's tiny that you can't read. Well, they're not going to be allowed to do that anymore. And that obviously is good. This is the guy that the entire machine thinks is so evil and everything else. And all he's doing is saying, hey, the companies that are putting some weird shit in your system should just have to tell you what it might do to you. Here's a bit more from RFK talking about how pharma ads have hurt Americans.
Guest/Panelist
There's only two countries in the world that allowed direct to consumer advertising by pharmaceutical companies on television. Or one of those countries, New Zealand is the other. It's had a disastrous impact on human health, on people's relationships with their doctors, and really on the entire entire gestalt where Americans are led to believe that there's a pill for every ill and that you don't have to exercise, you don't have to pay attention to your diet. Whatever goes wrong with you, you can fix with a drug.
Dave Rubin
First off, the entire gestalt. Great word, Bobby. That was fantastic. But again, of course, why is it that we in New Zealand are the only two that have done this and we are just getting this back to a little more transparency. And of course, what was his red pill if we're talking about drugs? Well, Bobby's red pill, although he's been fighting a of this related to vaccines for a long time, was everything that happened during COVID And here he is talking about how they're going to actually get some people involved who suffered vaccine injuries and myocarditis and others so that they can learn more about side effects of vaccines. This guy is just the devil, I'll tell you.
Guest/Panelist
Individuals who suffer them will not be denied or marginalized or vilified or gaslighted. They will be welcomed and we will learn everything that we can about them so that we can improve the safety of these products.
Dave Rubin
I'm gonna do a quick segue here because there he is saying, hey, we just wanna welcome the people who've been injured by these things so that maybe it won't happen again. Here is big pharma sellout, useless socialist who's never accomplished anything in his life other than becoming a millionaire with three houses, Bernie Sanders.
Guest/Panelist
Let me be as clear as I can be. We are now witnessing a full blown war on science, on public health, and on truth itself. That is what we are confronting right now at this unprecedented moment in American history. It is important to share the facts as clearly as we can. So I will take this opportunity to make a very simple point. Can't be simpler. Vaccines work, period.
Dave Rubin
I honestly can't believe anyone believes that like bloviating, useless, communist old fart bag anymore. Do we have a picture of Bernie in a mask? Yes, Bernie, that's science right there. Look at science all over his face. You know, he's sitting outdoors wearing a mask that there's air going in this way and that way and up and down and everything else. That's science, man. That's science. And Bernie, why is it that you don't care about all of the young people who have myocarditis? Why do you not care? I have a friend who's 22 or 23, he's a somewhat public person actually, but I'm not gonna mention his name here, who was perfectly healthy his entire life, got the COVID vaccine because at that time he wanted to be able to do his last year in college and now has a heart condition. Why don't you care about that? And we can do the long list of people who suddenly have autoimmune diseases, rates of shingles are going up, all this weird stuff on top of the fact that the vaccine didn't really work. And now, by the way, when you at the end go, you stand under a bumper, vaccines work. And you tell us vaccines work well, now people are starting to get curious about all sorts of things. So there might be some other vaccines that do work that have better efficacy and the systems in place years ago had much better research behind them. Right, but you don't care about any of that. You don't care about any of the. Here is former Biden Covid advisor Michael Esterholm. And he's also freaking out because the one thing these people have is, well, they have two things, your money and fear. You were so instrumental in guiding us through the pandemic through all those years. So fascinated to talk about your book. But I'm also curious, as a physician and given your area of expertise, what you Made of what we saw yesterday.
Guest/Panelist
On Capitol Hill in the testimony from RFK junior. I think, first of all, cutting through the political theater, I have to say, in my 50 years in the business, I've never seen a more dangerous time for public health. We're watching this destruction not just in this country, but throughout the world, largely because the U.S. pullback on such things as PEPFAR, USAID, being part of the WHO. When you add that all up right now, this is a serious challenge that I don't think people really realize the extent to which that threatens the very public health structure that we've so relied upon for the last hundred years.
Dave Rubin
If you want to understand what the deep state is, that guy is a perfect example of what the deep state is. Yes. If we don't fund all of these things, if we don't fund people not getting monkeypox in Africa. Stop, fucking monkeys. Then all hell is going to break loose. It's completely absurd. All Bobby is doing is saying, I'd like better research on this. I'd like to like to talk to people who have been harmed by those things. And I love how. What's his name? Will Geist, Willie Geist, whatever his name is. He's like. And you were so integral and everything related to Covid. Okay, did any of it work? Did any of it work? How about that video we showed you from the former head of the CDC a couple days ago where she was like, you know, we had the. All these meetings and nobody was like, you know, the variants might change and there might be a degradation of the vaccine. Nobody brought it up. I don't know. How the hell am I supposed to. I'm just the head of the fucking cdc. Crazy. Crazy. So you can either trust. Trust your own intuition, you can do research on your own, you can try to find alt sources for information, or you can just listen to a machine that had you literally put a diaper on your chin and not see Grandma, you know, in her last days. Like, I don't know. It's up to you. Listen to this. Well, which is the other part is we had a very, very dark conversation in this studio before the show today about where this could all go. But this is President of the eu, Ursula Von der Leyen, which sounds like the perfect name of someone who's the president of the eu and she's already warning us that we are on the brink of another health crisis. Almost as if these people, Bill Gates maybe, could actually start viruses to kill a lot of us. Is that crazy? Am I nuts?

We are on the brink, if not.
Dave Rubin
Even at the start of another global health crisis.

And as a. As a medical doctor by training, I'm appalled by the disinformation that threatens global progress on everything. This summer showed us that there is simply no room or no time for nostalgia. Battle lines for new world order based on power are being drawn right now.
Dave Rubin
Lady, might I ask, how do you know we're on the brink of another world health crisis? How do you have some information? Do you work with people that maybe release things out of China? Like, I don't know exactly. But I do know that if you care about your health, you should try to eat right. You should try to get outside. You should try to have community around you. You should try to take a little stock in your own personal, spiritual, physical being and see if you know you can better that rather than turning to a bunch of people who literally locked us up in our own homes. That's what I would do. And here's one more. This is the guy they hate, remember? This is the guy who they all loved, who they all hate. And this is the guy they want you to think is the bad guy in this movie.

I got involved with chronic disease 20 years ago, not because I chose to or wanted to. It was essentially thrust upon me. I watched generations of children get sicker and sicker. I had 11 siblings and I had seven kids myself. I was conscious of what was happening in their classrooms and to their friends. And I watched these sick kids, these damaged kids in that generation, almost all of them are damaged and nobody in power seemed to care or to even notice. For 19 years, I prayed every morning that God would put me in a position to end this calamity. I have the certainty that this is what I've meant to do. And that certainty gives me internal peace even in storms. This is a spiritual journey for me. I reached my decision through deep prayer, through hard nosed logic. And I asked myself of what choices must I make to maximize my chances to save America's children and restore national health. I felt that if I refused this opportunity, I would not be able to look myself in the mirror knowing that I could have saved lives of countless children and reverse this country's chronic disease epidemic.
Dave Rubin
Does that seem like the bad guy in this story? The guy who can tell you how he was dragged in some sense because he saw what was happening with his siblings and his children and all of that and a generation, A guy who survived drug addiction, all the horrific things that have happened to his family, the murders, assassinations, et cetera et cetera. He came this far to have. Now his entire. The entire Kennedy family has turned against him. He allied with Trump, who he used to hate, like, all of the stuff. And all he talks about is, can we just make this stuff safer? Can we really make sense of some of the science and everything else? Or you can choose the other one. You can say, no, that guy, he is the bad guy here, who's the good guy. And the good guy is Ursula, who is telling you that we're on the brink of another disastrous worldwide epidemic, even though she doesn't give you any information about it, which leads you to. It would only take a little bit of a conspiracy theorist to think, boy, these guys really can just kind of release things when they want. What would the next Covid look like? And the really dark conversation we had right before the show was basically like, if. Man, they have so many people now who are skeptical of all this stuff. If they really wanted us all to bow, could they release something that was ten times as deadly as Covid just to show us who's boss? I mean, I don't want to think about that. But, like, if you're just seeing this all as a game in the grand game in some sense, well, that's depressing. That's how we're ending the show. We're all dying. Well, I don't know. Haven't a filet mignon and a little watermelon for lunch, so that's pretty good. See you tomorrow.
Guest/Panelist
I'm trying to come up, man. Cut. That's a cut.
Dave Rubin
What?
Guest/Panelist
You can't use that kind of language on tv.
Dave Rubin
What?
Guest/Panelist
What? What language?

What you talk.
Host: Dave Rubin
Episode: Press Gasps When Told Trump’s Brutal Plan for Charlotte Stabbing Suspect
Date: September 10, 2025
In this episode, Dave Rubin covers the tragic murder of a Ukrainian refugee, Irina Zarutska, on the Charlotte light rail. The discussion expands into the broader culture war, criminal justice failings, mainstream media narratives, and political reaction—particularly focusing on the issues of rising crime in U.S. cities, media bias, judicial incompetence, and racially charged violence. The episode also explores themes of illegal immigration, public health, and societal decline, sharply divided along ideological lines.
Dave Rubin’s episode serves as a rallying cry against mainstream narratives surrounding violent crime, racial discourse, judicial incompetence, illegal immigration, and public health policy. Framing the Charlotte murder as an emblematic, avoidable tragedy, he urges viewers to recognize the intersection of policy failures, media bias, and cultural decay—and to reclaim agency via personal responsibility, critical skepticism, and informed political participation.
This episode is essential listening for those interested in the intersection of crime, race, media, and politics in contemporary America as seen through a conservative-libertarian lens.
