Unknown Speaker (11:16)

Did you ever think that you and Elon Musk would find yourself on the same side advocating against a bill?

Dave Rubin (11:21)

What can I say? Hell has frozen over a second time.

Unknown Speaker (11:26)

Look, but Elon Musk is right about this. He's got it exactly right. The idea of borrowing three and a.

Dave Rubin (11:35)

Half trillion dollars on the nation's credit.

Unknown Speaker (11:39)

Card in order to be able to.

Dave Rubin (11:42)

Give tax breaks to the likes of.

Unknown Speaker (11:45)

Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg is financially nuts.

Dave Rubin (11:52)

It's terrible for our country. Okay, so there's A couple of things here. First off, what she's doing is, is like the most cynical political thing this. Weeks ago, she's calling Elon basically a Nazi and encouraging people to burn down his Tesla charging stations. Now she sees a political expediency in it, so she's going to be all about him so she can turn it against Trump, who is her true enemy here. Also, it's just dishonest. Look, tax cuts again. I'm for tax cuts. I want you, every single person watching this, to keep more of what you earn. It's not my money and it's not the government's money. It's your money. Right? So that's number one. But the idea that the tax. What, what Donald Trump really wants here is tax cuts for billionaires so that he can then increase. So that, so that he can in essence just increase, increase the debt. Right, because he just wants to spend and spend and spend. You may not like some of the spending in there, but allowing people to keep more of their money is just good. She has never cared about any of this stuff. There's never been a time when the Democrats were like, oh, the debt is a problem, or we're taxing people too much or whatever else. So it's just completely, completely fraudulent. But now I will also show you that there are some serious problems with this bill outside of what Elon is talking about. Elon's talking about it purely on the spending side. Right? He likes all of the cuts.

Unknown Speaker (13:15)

Cuts.

Dave Rubin (13:15)

He doesn't like the extra spending. That's what leads to the debt. But then yesterday, this is, this is crazy. I mean, this just shows you how broken the Senate is. The Senate actually rejected the provision in the big, beautiful bill to kick illegals off Medicaid.

Unknown Speaker (13:42)

Hello, sir.

Dave Rubin (13:43)

Okay, on this vote, The A's are 56, the nays are 44. Three fifths of the senators duly chosen and sworn, not having voted in the affirmative. The motion is not agreed to. Okay, so they somehow the Senate could not figure out a way to make sure that illegals would be kicked off Medicare. Like, think about that. You're here. I know they don't get it, but if you are here illegally, you shouldn't get the benefits of being an American because that means they take your dollars as a legal American and give it to somebody else. But they couldn't even get that. Joseph just crunched some numbers on me for me here. So in June of, what do you say of June of 2023? In June of 23. So Joe Biden was President, they in essence increased the debt ceiling $4.7 trillion. Do you think Elizabeth Warren had a problem with it then? She's talking about three now. So when her people are in power, when the Democrats are in power, she doesn't care how much more debt we get into or anything else. Now she sees a wedge and she's going to take the hammer and hit that wedge so that Elon and Trump go their separate ways. My hope is that they will realize what's going on here. And as they buried the hatchet once, I think they will bury the hatchet a second time. We shall see. Now, I want to throw to this video. You know, we've shown you portions of this video probably, I don't know, maybe a dozen times over the years. There was a former KGB agent defector by the name of Yuri Besmanov who I think in the early 80s basically started explaining how authoritarian systems are installed in free societies. And what he talks about are there are phases of it. You don't just do it overnight, but you demoralize. First you destabilize, then you have a crisis and then you normalize. So I want to show you about a minute and a half of one of his talks because I want to now connect why it is so important that we don't let fights between Elon and Trump and this new wide tent MAGA thing, why we don't let it break everything. Because what they are trying to usher in on the other side is exactly what's going on in New York City right now. So take a look at former KGB agent Yuri Besmanov. What subversion is. Basically, it consists of four periods. Time wise, if we start from here and go this way, time, right. This is the beginning point. The first stage of subversion is the process which is called basically demoralization. The next step is destabilization.

Unknown Speaker (16:22)

Again, this word says for itself what.

Dave Rubin (16:24)

It is to destabilize all the relations, all the accepted institutions and organizations in a country of your enemy, how you do it.

Unknown Speaker (16:34)

You don't have to send up a.

Dave Rubin (16:36)

Battalion of KGB agents to blow up bridges. No, you let them do it themselves. Destabilize. Stabilization process usually leads directly to the process of crisis. Crisis is when society cannot function any more productively. It collapses. So therefore, the population at large is looking for a savior. Let's have a strong government, maybe socialist government, centralized. We need some strong man. Stage is normalization. Normalization is a very ironic word, of course. Okay, there's a lot more of that and we're Going to keep showing it to you, but I want to go through that and sort of connect it to where we are at right now. Think about what we've been dealing with in America for just say the last decade. Well, first off, the left came in with all of this. America is fundamentally evil, right? We're a colonial, colonial settler state. Our founding was based on slavery. They took generations through public education and they told them that we are bad. Right? That might be called demoralization. That's number one. Then they destabilize. Well, I think we have a lot of evidence of destabilization over the last couple years with BLM and Antifa and Hamas on the streets and just everything feels chaotic. And if you live in a city, you never know if your city's functioning that day or not, or they can take over the streets, et cetera, et cetera. Then crisis. Well, right now we're sort of in between crisis moment, whether it's that they're going to get much more violent. I mean, they have been violent. But do they decide to give us another summer of love and create enough crisis out there, enough feeling of crisis, that then you get normalization, that then the new heroes come in and it's only they who can save you. And of course, that's big government. And rarely does big government, I would argue probably never does big government actually save you. So now we will connect all of this to the lunacy that is happening in New York City. As you know, this guy Zorhan Mandani is the Democrat nominee to be mayor of the once greatest city on the face of the earth. We will see what happens in the fall. We'll get to that in just a second. But first, PDS debt. Feeling buried under credit card bills, personal loans, or medical debt. It's like your money is working harder for your lenders than it is for you. But it doesn't have to be that way. That's where PDS debt comes in. PDS debt does more than help you manage debt. They help you take control of it. They look at your unique situation and create a personalized plan that fits your life. No cookie cutter solutions, just real strategies to help you save more, pay off your debt faster, and finally start building real savings. There's no minimum credit score, just support that's actually tailored to you. Getting started is simple. Just go to PDSDE.com Rubin for a free debt assessment. It only takes 30 seconds. Go to PDSDEBT.com Rubin right now. Okay, so via a KGB agent, we just explained A little bit of how it slowly happens. Things happen kind of slowly and then they happen very quickly. Well, New York City might be veering into when the bad stuff happens very quickly via a guy named Zorhan Mamdani, who is a full on admitted socialist. I would say he's also a communist and a Marxist. But don't take my word for it, take his word for it. He does want to seize the means of production.

Unknown Speaker (20:01)

What the purpose is about this entire project, it's not simply to raise class consciousness, but to win socialism. And obviously raising class consciousness is a critical part of that. But making sure that we have candidates that both understand that and are willing to put that forward at every which moment that they have, at every which opportunity that they're given. We have to continue to elect more socialists and we have to ensure that we are unapologetic about our socialism. There are also other issues that we firmly believe in. Whether it's bds, right? Or whether it's the end goal of seizing the means of production. And with every battle that we fight as socialists, we need to remember what the stakes are and ground ourselves in them and why those stakes are important and critical to us as individuals.

Dave Rubin (20:50)

Guys, you have to give this guy credit in that. He's not hiding it. They usually are better about hiding it. He's telling you, I'm a socialist. We need to elect more socialists. And by the way, what do socialists do? Well, socialists get in legally via elections and then they usually cancel elections. He hasn't gotten to that part yet. But then of course, he somehow combines running for New York City mayor to bds, boycott, divest, sanction Israel. Because the key thing of being a progressive is you have to hate the freest country in the Middle east more than anything else. And then he wants to seize the mean of productions. Is there a guy with a long beard who used to say, yeah, that's Karl Marx, we're seizing the means of production. And of course it does actually come with a gun because you're gonna have to kill a lot of people to get them to behave in your socialist fairy tale. I believe this is AI. I can't swear to anything, but Joseph put together a little 8 second video about what the future of New York City could look like. Well, that's it. That's it. Like that's it. Actually, they don't need, you know, in all the old sci fi movies you'd have to reanimate the dead Karl Marx to have him take over. But now you just have to bring in sort of an Islamist communist lunatic like Zorham Mamdani. Now, if you want to see how radical this guy is and they just, the Democrats just don't know how to stop him, listen to this guy on his website from his own platform. The administration will shift the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners in the outer boroughs to more expensive homes in richer and whiter neighborhoods. The property tax system is unbalanced because assessment levels are artificially capped so homeowners in expensive neighborhoods pay less than their fair share. The mayor can fix this by pushing class assessment percentages down for everyone and adjusting rates up, effectively lowering tax payments for homeowners in neighborhoods like Jamaica and Brownsville while raising the amount paid in the most expensive Brooklyn Brownstones. Advocate for the inclusion of circuit breakers. Advocate for the inclusion of circuit breakers to ensure that low and moderate income homeowners, like many of our seniors living in gentrified neighborhoods, are not cost burdened by the changes. Stop treating co ops and condos as if they were rentals. The Mamdani administration will work with lawmakers to abolish real estate property tax law section 581, which compares condos and co ops to rental properties and creates arbitrary, arbitrary. Phoenix, you're going too fast for me there. And creates arbitrary and inequitable tax burdens on moderate and low income owners. Let's focus on that thing about they're going to tax outer boroughs to expensive homes in richer and whiter neighborhoods. I think I've said it seven times on this very show. I want you to keep as much of your money as possible. I want lowest taxes for everybody. I want a slim and trim government to whatever extent we have to have a government. He wants the complete reverse of that on top of what you would then call cultural Marxism because he also adds race on top of it. So you might say, okay, he's just a socialist or a communist. This is all based on economics. I don't agree with this, but the argument would be something like, well, he's a socialist and a socialist does want to take from those who create and have more and just redistribute it and then you have more equity in the system. It's a horrible idea. But that would be their basic argument. What a cultural Marxist does is take that idea but then also attach it to race or gender or sexuality, et cetera, et cetera. This is what wokeism is. So he's not just saying, oh, these rich people over there in those boroughs, he's saying those white rich people and guess what will happen if you eventually start taxing white people more? They will become racist. Kind of like the Indian kid or the Asian kid who doesn't get into Harvard anymore because you wanted more black kids in there. You say to him, oh, the system is rigged against you. And eventually he will start being a little racist. So everything that these people purport to want to do to get us to the air utopia will only lead us to dystopia. But again, I do give the guy credit because he's not hiding the evil nature of what he is. Here he is blaming capitalism for why New York City doesn't have enough renewable energy use.

Unknown Speaker (25:24)

Did you ever wonder why New York State only gets 5% of its energy from wind and solar? It's because of one word, capitalism. I'm Zohran Mandani, assemblymember for District 36 and a proud ecosocialist.

Dave Rubin (25:40)

So he's now an eco socialist too. Whatever the high hell that means. Wasn't there a cartoon Captain Planet or something? Wasn't he fighting ecosocialists when we were kids? Yes, yes, you're right. They don't have renewable energy. Enough renewable energy in New York because of capitalism. The ability for people to build things and trade freely with each other without an over incumbent government grabbing everything from them and forcing them into relationships. That's what's stopping green power again. I mean this is very much like an AOC green New Deal thing. We're going to end things that work to usher in our utopian fantasy. But it gets gets even worse with this guy here. He is talking about how the state will buy up private housing and convert it into it sounds very lovely. Community ownership further toward the Vienna model.

Unknown Speaker (26:29)

We'll have to go beyond the market. We can establish community land trusts to gradually buy up housing on the private market and convert it to community ownership. We can give tenants a right of first refusal to buy out their landlords when buildings go up for sale. And we can fully commit to a new era of social housing. Ending subsidies for luxury housing development and using our wealth to build beautiful, high quality social housing projects that offer good homes and strong communities to everyone. We won't de commodify housing overnight, but we know what we have to do and we have history to guide us.

Dave Rubin (27:01)

Listen, I just want to be really clear with this guy. He is evil. Everything that he is saying is evil. Yes, I get it. He smiles when he's saying it and he talks like this and they use fancy graphics and his mom was a Hollywood Producer, and he also went to a $60,000 a year school. And so this is very well trained and rehearsed and recited and all of those things. And because the public education system has been so evil for so long, an awful lot of young people are going to hear all of those things and be like, oh, my God, I would love that. There'll be no more luxury housing, and they're going to buy it and they're going to give us housing and it'll be really nice and I'll stand outside with a. With a watering pot and I'm gonna water my flowers and the government and won't it be wonderful? So we are up against something that is real again. This is the alien. You have to respect what it is doing, as evil as it is. But what do you think is going to happen in New York City over time? Do you think people who are industrious, who are on the front edge of innovation, who want to build new things and who want competition because competition is what breeds greatness, do you think they're gonna take their projects to New York anymore? Do you think there's literally anyone, anyone other than one of his, like, socialist patsy buddies who will get a great government contract to build a very average building? Do you think there's a great builder out there anywhere that's like, boy, I really wanna start building in New York City right now? And particularly, would you wanna do it if you were, say, white? Would you want to do it? Because you know that's not going to be good for you either. So this guy is. He is the new face of Woke. As I said on the show yesterday, we defeated Wokeism in many ways, but they've now figured out how to usher it in here. And I will reiterate something I said on the show yesterday, because I have not heard anyone else say it. But my guess is, if he wins, they have a good year because they will shut off all of the rioters because they control them. And they will fake it for about a year so that in other cities like Portland and Seattle and all the other wackadoodle blue cities, they'll be like, see, it's working in New York. And by the way, it might work for a little while. It can artificially be floated for a little while until over time, because people are individuals, they start realizing, boy, I have no skin in the game because the government controls everything. And, oh, could this start leading to a social credit score. And suddenly I said something bad about Mondami or said something that was politically incorrect. And I go into a government grocery store and I and might keep swiping my shit and it ain't working. That is what is coming here. Like that is the thing that's not Alex Jones craziness. That is fairly obvious if you just watch the movie that is being laid out in front of us. And by the way, now the Democrats, because there are no sane people left and because it is just a clown car and because they never knew when to say too far is too far and let's just keep progressing off the cliff, they don't have anyone to stop him him. So here is Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy, who five years ago I would say was like a sort of do nothing Democrat moderate. And now he is here. He is basically saying we need more momdanis. There are certain things that he stands for and says that I don't agree with. But I think you have to pay attention to the fact that you had a candidate in New York City that was talking every single day about the cost of living. And he was proposing really big, sometimes.

Unknown Speaker (30:23)

Radical ideas to take power from folks.

Dave Rubin (30:26)

Who have way too much of it. Like the, the big realty companies that.

Unknown Speaker (30:32)

Are jacking up rents in New York City and transferring it to regular people.

Dave Rubin (30:35)

He did have a laser like focus.

Unknown Speaker (30:38)

On cost of living, on shifting power.

Dave Rubin (30:41)

To people who don't have enough of it. And I think of the Democratic Party.

Unknown Speaker (30:46)

Writ large, spent as much much time or as big a percentage of our.

Dave Rubin (30:49)

Communications time talking about the cost of living as Mamdani did in New York. We probably win a lot more elections. I mean, it's here, right? Like there's no way to sugarcoat what's happening here with the Democrat Party. It is here. That guy again, who is just like a nothing Democrat a few years ago, he's basically fully endorsing socialism. He was talking about cost of living. And we want to take the way, take away the power from the big realty companies. Think about it, guys. If you have, you're in New York City or you're in any city and someone starts building buildings right now, would we all like rent to generally be cheaper? I rented for many years, but I always have liked it to be a little bit cheaper. Yeah, of course you do. But what you want, the way rent gets cheaper is you create the economic conditions on the ground so that more and more people start moving to your city. So more and more dollars are being spent so that more people build and then more housing comes in and everything else. And that competition causes prices to go down. This is basic economic stuff that everyone learns. If you understand that capitalism is the best of a bunch of probably bad systems, but capitalism's probably pretty great. What they're trying to do is the reverse of that. Do you think any realtor gets into. He's like, yes, I'm gonna build a building, and I'm gonna charge rents that are so high that nobody will be able to afford it? That would make a hell of a lot of sense. Then you're just gonna have a building that nobody lives in. Right. But what they want to do is basically make sure that nobody will build anything because the government's going to control everything. And then how long will that work when you're living in your little community that nobody really has any movement before you start getting jealous of somebody else. Right. Because, of course, you always will. And now to his real radicalness. Because if you think the economic stuff is obviously really radical, but I think without any daylight, I think this guy is actually being installed because he wants to destroy the United States of America. And one of the ways he is trying to do that is the reason that he keeps talking as the New York City mayor, which has the highest percentage of Jewish people in the United States of any city. He is obsessively focused on Israel and wants to destroy Israel and wants to globalize the Intifada. So here he is being asked if he will condemn the phrase globalized the Intifada. Do you condemn that phrase, globalize the intifada?

Unknown Speaker (33:06)

That's not language that I use. The language that I use and the language that I will continue to use to lead the city is that which speaks clearly to my intent, which is an intent grounded in a belief in universal human rights. But do you actually condemn it?

Dave Rubin (33:19)

I think that's the question. And the outstanding issue that a number.

Unknown Speaker (33:23)

Of people, both of the Jewish faith and beyond, have.

Dave Rubin (33:26)

Do you condemn that phase? Globalize the intifada, which a lot of people hear is a call to violence against Jews.

Unknown Speaker (33:31)

I've heard from many Jewish New Yorkers who have shared their concerns with me. I don't believe that the role of the mayor is to police speech quickly.

Dave Rubin (33:39)

For the people who care about the language and who feel really concerned by.

Unknown Speaker (33:44)

That phrase, why not just condemn it? My concern is to start to walk down the line of language and making clear what language I believe is permissible or impermissible.

Dave Rubin (34:06)

All right, so you guys get it. Globalize the intifada means kill Jews. It's as simple as that. Everyone understands that. I understand he doesn't Want a police speech and all. And you're right. As if once he has power, he won't be policing speech, but he won't condemn it because it is what he wants. I said on the show a couple days ago that if you are a Jew and he wins, you get the fuck out of New York City. Fox News ran that on a headline on their website yesterday. And I absolutely stand by that. This guy is here to globalize the intifada. And as a matter of fact, the intifada has been being globalized. You may remember about two months ago when a guy in Boulder, Colorado, threw a bunch of Molotov cocktails on random people. They happen to be Jewish. Well, one of the people that they. That he threw the Molotov cocktail on passed away a day or two ago. Here's Mom Dahme's tweet on this. I am heartbroken by the news from Colorado where Karen Diamond, a victim of the vicious attack earlier this month, has passed away. May Karen's memory be a blessing and a reminder that we must constantly work to eradicate hatred, violence. Connor, leave this up for a moment. Now, interestingly, he doesn't say that it was a jihadist. He doesn't say that it was someone who was globalizing the intifada, the vicious attack earlier this month. So he makes no mention of why this happened to this Jewish woman. It is because people have been calling to globalize Intifada. Then he has the temerity or the audacity to say, may Karen's memory be a blessing. That's a Jewish phrase. So he might be doing a little cultural appropriation right there. And that they must constantly work to eradicate hatred and violence. Except it's his side that is pushing the hatred and violence. And if you want to see now how this nonsense gets scaled up over on msnbc, the televised mental institution known as msnbc. Here's journalists. They call him a journalist, so I'll put quotes around it, but this is just some lefty activist, Pablo Torre, saying that it was savvy of Zorhan not to condemn globalize the intifada.

Unknown Speaker (36:06)

You haven't done that.

Dave Rubin (36:07)

I found it to be incredibly savvy, actually, in how he answered that, Katty, both for the reasons you said, but also because of. Of clearly who he's talking to. He's trying to build a coalition, to use that word, a cohesiveness on the left. And he knows that the people he's trying to persuade that, look, I'm not your typical candidate, is in fact A.

Unknown Speaker (36:27)

Population of people that do not see.

Dave Rubin (36:30)

The ideological, or in this case, the verbal, the rhetorical purity test in the same way that I think people who understandably, by the way, just want him to condemn it. Right. I understand that completely. But, Molly, he is playing a bit of chess here. And I think the larger move, the.

Unknown Speaker (36:46)

Larger metaphor here is that he's seeing.

Dave Rubin (36:48)

What Donald Trump has promised, right? Freedom of speech and populism, and he's saying, I'm gonna actually use those weapons against the right. That's the opportunity here. Right? Collective self interest rooted in the 99%. And. And that's why he's refusing to fall into these traps that he knows are gonna end in one particular direction. You know, that guy will probably never hear him again. He's in some sense, directionally right about something. But are the collective 99% right about the endorsement of globalized intifada? No one's saying that. He can't say it. But if you say it, then tell us what you mean by it. What do you mean by globalize the intifada? If not kill Jews, destroy Israel, and then it is being extrapolated and sent across the Western world? What do you mean by that? So, look, this is the road that New York City is going down. My gut feeling right now is that this guy is gonna win. I think the Democrats have no way of stopping him. And Eric Adams, simply the man who ushered in so much of this nonsense, is not the right bulwark against it. And the machine clearly wants this guy to win. And why would the machine want a socialist to win? Because that's more power to the machine. And MSNBC is just part of the machine. And the entire thing now, what that will lead to is an America that will continue to go its separate ways. And I'm very proud, obviously, to live in the free state of Florida. And a couple days ago, after Mom Donnie won the Democrat nomination or won the Democrat primary, I tweeted this. Hey, gov. Ron DeSantis, I have two words for you. Entry tax. Well, that tweet went pretty viral. And here's Ron DeSantis yesterday. This guy, Mayor. It's going to decline even more from that. You know, I mean, we've paid. I'm going to talk about, with this budget, we'll have paid off almost half of Florida's debt over 180 years just since I've been governor. But, you know, I could probably. I could probably extinguish the other half if I just charge an entry tax from all the New Yorkers that are going to flee this guy, especially those rich people. Look, I can appreciate the joke. And Brian Griffin, who's DeSantis comms guy, he commented on my tweet, so I'm glad that made it up over there. And it's kind of a joke. And yes, could it be great DeSantis, in basically six years of being governor, that he has eliminated half of the state's debt here because we actually believe in economics here. And Florida is now first in education and Florida is first in economic growth and all of these things that we now know about. Right? And we don't let protesters take over the streets and all those things. But do we want these people here? Look, there might be. There probably are actually constitutional issues about an entry tax because of interstate commerce and things of that nature. But I really do think they should look into it at this point. Or maybe if you're a registered Republican fleeing to a red state, you don't have to pay it. But if you're a registered Democrat or something, I don't know exactly how they do it. Like, I'm literally just doing a thought experiment with you guys. But if you are someone fleeing a place that did everything wrong, then maybe you should have a little more skin in the game. And I say that as someone that came here three years ago and I would have, I really would have. I think I was making jokes about it years ago that I would pay to get in. Like, how about, okay, your first year income is you get an extra 1% comes out. We don't have state income tax, but we'll take 1% and it goes directly to Florida state infrastructure or it goes directly to policing or something like that. Where in this state, I would believe in some level of taxation because we will do proper things with it, right? Not that I like taxation as a, as a general means of making things happen, but otherwise what we're going to get is all of the people who ushered in all of this nonsense and then nonsense, and then finally, at zero hour, right when all hell was about to break loose, they come here and then they ruin this place, too. And just ask the people of Colorado about that, ask the people of Utah about that, and ask the people of Montana about that as the Californians have spread across the country. So we're going to have to start thinking about these things. We'll have more on the guide that apparently is the Great White, although not white. Hope to stop. Mom. Dummy. That's Eric Adams. We'll have more on him in a second. But first, Brickhouse Nutrition Go big on Brick House Nutrition's July 4th sale.

And if not, we'll cover it tomorrow, obviously. But the great white hope to stop the full on explosion of Marxism and communism and socialism in New York is Eric Adams. Eric Adams, a man who has been a pretty terrible mayor, a man who's been all for sanctuary city, who's allowed the criminality and all of the stuff, who's yes, he's gotten a little bit better at least in messaging over the last couple weeks. And now you can see a whole bunch of people are suddenly Eric Adams supporters because they're like, my God, we're on. The gates of hell are about to open on us. Eric Adams went on. Fox was asked if he would seek Trump's support. His answer was kind of interesting.

Unknown Speaker (42:32)

Will you seek President Trump's endorsement, yes or no?

Dave Rubin (42:36)

Any New Yorker that wants to vote for me, I'm all for now. It's interesting. Martha said yes or no and he wouldn't just say yes. Now I get it. He's a politician first, which is why he's not that great. So he won't say yes cuz he knows if he says yes. Well, there's a certain amount of New Yorkers that have Trump derangement syndrome and this is the fucking bananas hell hole that you people have all created. You have a guy who's the moderate now, who's not great and he knows that in reality, in like put aside electoral reality, like what's going to get you elected like, what would be the best thing to happen for New York? It would be someone who has Trump's backing, who is a sane person and blah, blah, blah. But he's afraid to say that even though he knows he wants the Trump supporters, right, because he knows that a certain amount of them have Trump derangement syndrome. And that that is just put such a stank on what is going on in New York City. Now I wanna show you some headlines from the New York Times and New York City. Gov, look at this. So after meeting with Trump's border czar, Adams opens rikers to ICE agents. So that, that's again, that's good. Eric Adams, but again, how good is he? Well, he's a guy that made it a sanctuary city in the first place. And here's another one. Mayor Adams announces removal of over 100,000 illegal vehicles from city streets since start of administration. Improving quality of life for all New Yorkers. That was a couple weeks ago. That's great to see. But why didn't you do that years ago? So suddenly again, just as they're looking at, at the black hole, they're like, oh, well, we don't know what's on the other side of that. Or we do and it's Marxism and we better not do it. So is he the hope? I don't know. We just thought we throw this in because when you think of Eric Adams, it's hard not to think of this video. This is from 14 years ago. This is Eric Adams doing a little public service announcement about what parents should watch out for. Cause you know these kids are always up to no good. The fact that this is not, well, it's parody. But the fact that it's not parody is extraordinary. And you can look in a jewelry box. A jewelry box of this nature may be a simple jewelry box, but if you look through it closely, you don't know what your child may be hiding. For instance, a gun. Look at picture frames. Behind them, cameras try to determine what's, what's taking place.

Unknown Speaker (44:51)

Behind a picture frame.

Dave Rubin (44:53)

You can find bullets. You should always, when your child bring in his popular knapsack with many different locations, look through it to see. See what exactly is your child carrying in addition to a book? Something simple as a crack pipe. Something simple as a baby doll. Could be just a baby doll, but also it could be a place where you could secrete or hide drugs. Run your hands over the pillows and see if you feel anything that's unusual. Like a pillow like this with a button is a Perfect invitation to hide something. And I felt something bumping. I will reach in, see what it is. Just look and see what's inside your bookcases. It could be more than just books. Perfect place to hide cocaine. Good luck. Good luck, New York. Like that's your savior. The crack pipe and the bullets behind the thing and everything else here. You know what? I have Joseph's backpack right here. This is what he brings in every day. Can I. Yeah. Bug zapper. We're in Florida. We get a lot of mosquitoes. That seems pretty legit. Oh. Oh. Acetaminophen. You sick freak. Paper. Paper. Some sort of wire. Is it for building a bomb? I don't know. You see what we're up against, people you see. Let's jump back to Senator Chris Murphy, because the Democrats are trying. He's very pissed. This is the guy from Connecticut. He's very pissed that Trump has lowered the border crossings because somehow that means Trump's violating the law. What? You know border crossings are at a record low.

Unknown Speaker (46:37)

Do you give the Trump administration some credit for that?

Dave Rubin (46:41)

And are you, when you look at.

Unknown Speaker (46:43)

Those figures, do you think things are.

Dave Rubin (46:45)

Moving in the right direction, at least in that regard, Senator? No, I don't give them credit for that. Because border crossings are low because they're violating the law every day. In the mood right now? Not in the mood. I zapped myself accidentally with the bug zapper, and I'm just not in the mood for Chris Murphy. Border crossings are low because it's illegal. What? What? It was always illegal to cross the border illegally. Border crossings are low because Trump set out a signal to the world and said, don't come here. And then they started sending troops there and they started monitoring the border. You people are awful. And Vince DeSantis is clearly listening to some of my messaging here. How about we ban Chris Murphy from ever vacationing in the state? Sorry, buddy. You'll have to stick with Connecticut's Long Island Sound. Good luck up there. The beach ain't bad, but okay. Interestingly, cnn, which is not a news organization, it's a Democrat. It's a. I would say a Democrat media operation. Basically, they were promoting an app that this is. I mean, this is crazy that this is true. CNN was promoting an app that shows location of ICE agents. Caroline Levitt was asked about that.

Unknown Speaker (47:56)

Thanks, Caroline.

Dave Rubin (47:57)

I just watched a CNN segment on.

Unknown Speaker (47:59)

A new app called Ice Block and it appear to be promoting this app where you can tell people where ICE agents are, given the recent rise that tells people where ICE agents are. Yes. And given the rise, I believe, 500% increase in assaults on ICE agents.

Dave Rubin (48:15)

I wanted to see if you could.

Unknown Speaker (48:16)

Comment on that and why CNN would be promoting such an app. Well, it's a very good question. I'll have to go back and watch the clip myself. But surely it sounds like this would be an incitement of further violence against our ICE officers. As you know, as you stated, there's been a 500% increase in violence against ICE agents, law enforcement officers across the country who are just simply trying to do their jobs and remove public safety threats from our communities. And that's something we as Americans, including journalists at cnn, who live in many of these cities where illegal aliens are hiding and were let in from the previous administration should be very grateful for. So we haven't seen the clip. It, we'll take a look at it. But certainly it's unacceptable that a major network would promote such an app that is encouraging violence against law enforcement officers who are trying to keep our country safe.

Dave Rubin (49:06)

Okay, so I can't speak to the encouraging violence part, but if there is an app that CNN is talking about, there's a reason they're talking about it. Oh, there's an app where you'll be able to find out where ICE agents are. In essence that's just giving them a commercial. You know, think about when you do, when you political ads come out. What always happens with political ads? And we've done this too, on this show, a political ad comes out. Not that many people tune into ads anymore. Right? People don't watch conventional television the way they used to. But then what happens is CNN covers the ad. Did you see this ad? And then they get free buy in on that. Or even sometimes we'll cover it like, oh, here we'll say here was a good ad or here was a crazy ad or whatever it might be. And then you get free buy in on that. So CNN covering an ad app, I'm sure they were like, oh, it's a very controversial app that's just come out that shows where ICE agents are. It encourages more people, in essence to break the law. I'm going to guess on the app it's not encouraging them to hurt ICE agents. That might be also an interesting thing for the DOJ to look into as it relates to the Apple App Store or Android Store. Like if there's an app that's out there that's encouraging people to inform people where legal ICE agents are, that seems like it might be a problem. So anyway, we'll see, see A bit more on that and then I want to jump. So we're talking about some of the craziness that's happening. There is some good, some other good stuff happening as it relates to all of our trade deals. We'll have more on that in a moment. But first, Rumble Premium free speech is under attack.

Okay, so, you know, we had the whole brouhaha as it relates to Donald Trump's tariffs and trying to get some of these trade deals to fall into place. And as I said all along it was a loose quote off something that David Sack said. We have to just wait to see where the trade deals land. Well, Canada's been sort of one of the main ones in that the new prime Minister, the, let's say, Justin Trudeau just kind of in a more mature body. Mark Carney, he's been very loudly against Donald Trump. So I just want to show you how quickly things flip. So here's truth from Donald Trump yesterday and then we'll read subsequently what happened. Donald Trump wrote this. We have just been informed that Canada, a very difficult country to trade with, including the fact that they have charged our farmers as much as 400% tariffs for years on dairy products, has just announced they are putting a digital services tax on our American technology companies, which is a direct and blatant attack on our country. They're obviously copying the European Union, which has done the same thing and is currently under discussion with us. Also based on this egregious tax, we are hereby terminating all discussions on trade with Canada effective immediately. We will let Canada know that the tariff that they will be paying to do business with the United States of America within the next seven day period. Thank you for your attention to this matter. So Canada basically tried to play hardball with us and people. You could see all the Dems in the mainstream media was like, see Canada's winning. And a few hours later, this happened.

Unknown Speaker (52:37)

What's the President's reaction to this? Can you tell us more about his call with Prime Minister Carney over the weekend? How did he get Carney to drop it?

Dave Rubin (52:46)

And also, what's the impact on American.

Unknown Speaker (52:48)

Tech companies given this latest progress, as.

Dave Rubin (52:51)

The President says he has been fighting.

Unknown Speaker (52:52)

For American tech companies. It's very simple. Prime Minister Carney in Canada caved to President Trump in the United States of America. And President Trump knows how to negotiate and he knows that he is governing the best country and the best economy in this world, on this planet. And every country on the planet needs to have good trade relationships with the United States. And it was a mistake for Canada to vow to implement that tax that would have hurt our tech companies here in the United States. The President made his position quite clear to the Prime Minister. And the Prime Minister called the President last night to let the President know that he would be dropping that tax, which is a big victory for our tech companies and our American workers here at home.

Dave Rubin (53:35)

All right, so there you go. Once again, a fight is a brew and everyone gets very excited. Oh, my God, Canada is going to beat us. And then, boom, Trump threatens back. Canada caves. And here we are. Now, the next fight that Trump has is with Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, who has not cut rates yet, and Trump really wants him to. Interest rates I'm talking about, obviously, here's Caroline Levin on that.

Unknown Speaker (53:57)

We have interest rates that are still too high. So the President sent this note to the Fed Chair today. And if you look at this chart, this is a chart of all of the interest rates of many countries throughout the world. At the top is Switzerland. They're only paying a quarter for interest rates. Cambodia, Japan, Denmark, Thailand, Botswana, Barbados, Taiwan, Bulgaria, Cuba, Sweden, Morocco, Cabo Verde, South Korea, Algeria, Canada, Albania, Libya, Malaysia, China, New Zealand, Trinidad and Tobago, Czechia, Bolivia, Australia, Costa Rica, the Bahamas, Kuwait, Papua New Guinea, Bosnia, United Kingdom and the UAE are all paying lower interest rates than the United States of America, which has one of the hottest and strongest economies in the world. The President sent this note to the Fed chair. It says, jerome, you are, as usual, too late. You have cost the USA a fortune and continue to do so. You should lower the rate by a lot. Hundreds of billions of dollars are Being lost. And there is no inflation. And the President is right. There is historically low inflation, thanks to his policies.

Dave Rubin (55:04)

All right, first off, there's something funny about that. She's reading that list and she can't even believe that half of those places are countries. Cabo Verde, Whoever heard of that? Is that near regular Cabo? Like, what's going on over there? Trinidad and Tobago. But yes, why is it that all of these other countries right now, as we see our economy chugging along, we're gonna show you a couple things in a moment to show you how strong the economy is right now. But as we see our economy doing better, why is it that interest rates are still high? The higher interest rates are, the less that people can borrow, the less that it allows you to borrow so that you can do more. And once you can do more in your own personal life, you can spread money around and then other people can start spreading it around, companies can start expanding, et cetera, et cetera, etc. But when rates are high, it makes it harder to borrow money. Like, it's just basic stuff. So what is Jerome Powell doing? I'm not exactly sure. Now, check this out. This is really incredible. So remember all of the people who were screaming about Trump's tariffs and it's gonna tank the economy and everything else. We had those three rough days, which we've more than made up for in terms of the stock market, but they were saying it's gonna destroy everything and we're gonna be screwed and we're gonna lead. It's gonna recession, depression, blah, blah, blah. Check this out. Yesterday, CNBC showing how tariff revenues, which again, Trump was just using tariffs as a negotiating point and we don't even have all the deals back. But listen to how many dollars have been brought in subsequently.

Unknown Speaker (56:24)

Much we've been collecting in revenues. And I did this in part because Wilfred's here and he can talk about the UK trade deal, but just this is the monthly numbers and they have gone up a lot. June is actually, actually set for another big increase of 27 billion. That is money coming into US coffers from tariffs. We are collecting a lot of revenue so far, guys, $121 billion has flowed into the US government since the start of the fiscal year. It's still a tiny portion of the overall revenues that the US government gets, but it's increasingly a lot. Especially we haven't seen it in terms of the consumer paying off higher inflation.

Dave Rubin (57:01)

Did you see the Chiron there? Record highs for the s and P500 and NASDAQ that's number one. Number two, OK, 121 billion in tariff revenues. These the same people who told us the stock market was gonna collapse. There's more pain to come. We're gonna be screwed. I don't know. Do we have a video of someone in April saying that on cnn?

Unknown Speaker (57:22)

America went through an operation. Remember when Trump claimed that, well, the recovery isn't looking too good right now, is it?

Dave Rubin (57:29)

What was Trump doing during all this market upheaval? Well, he wasn't at the White House House glued to the television screens watching the markets or huddling with advisors, it seems. No, he was.

Unknown Speaker (57:41)

He was playing golf. And CNN's Fareed Zakaria points out it's more than just the stock market that's going sideways.

Dave Rubin (57:50)

This may be the biggest economic policymaking error of my lifetime. I've never seen anything like this. The stock market, the bond market market, the commodity markets, everybody is signaling that this was a disaster and it's going to be more pain to come. All right, putting aside the freed Zakaria looks like death. That man has been wrong about every big thing forever for decades, which of course is why he has a show on cnn and I think he also has a show on hbo. Like, again, it's just one giant circle jerk grift. But they were wrong about everything. Again, why is it that I didn't get this wrong? I was like, I don't know. We'll see what happens with the tariffs. We'll see where it all lands. And I have a feeling it's going to be pretty good. And now we just showed you the thing about 121 billion incoming because of the tariffs. And yes, the s&P 500 and NASDAQ record highs. That's what they closed at this past Friday, cnbc. Well, stocks ending the day with the S and P and NASDAQ closing at record highs again. That's as financials and communication services led the gains two days in a row. Now, of course, record closes. The dow still about 2% from its last all time high for the month. The Dow rallied more than 4%, the S&P 5% and the Nasdaq more than 6%. Today is also the end of the quarter with the S and P posting its best quarter since December of 2023. It's also the end of the first half and treasury has posted their best first half stretch in five. That's great for you, it's great for America. It's bad if you're a CNN anchor or if it's Bad. If you're a hack like Fareed Zakaria, everything that you just said right there, what do you say? He said something like everyone that talk to, okay, well, then your network is bad, your projections are bad, and you're not particularly good at your job. I'm not an economic expert and I don't pretend to be. But again, why is it just. Again, I didn't get it wrong because you people are activists and you're bad people. So what's the lesson here to close the show? The lesson, I think, is that Donald Trump right now has to realize that whether it's a little bit of a squabble with Elon over spending and covering cuts or whether it's them lying about what he's doing with the economy or anything else, Donald Trump has to just realize, stay the course and level up. This is a man who for 10 years has been called a Nazi. He's been called Hitler. They tried to shoot him, they tried to impeach him, they tried to end all of his businesses. And he survived all of that. But not only did he survive it, I can't say more importantly, not only did he survive it, he managed to change the culture to the point that when he came in, he was all of the evil things, and he's not anymore. They want him to still be the evil things, but he's not. So. And I want to show you these two quick videos. This is Bill Maher and snl. So this is the way culture has changed. These are two videos from 2016. They didn't destroy you back then when they called you Trump and Hitler Trump when they called you Trump, Hitler. So don't let them destroy you now. But look how much things have changed in nine years. I had one of Hitler's speeches translated into English. And. And I think this tells us a lot about where Donald Trump is getting his ideas. Look at this Hitler speech. And we've translated it for you. Thank you. Thank you. We're going to make Germany great again. That I can tell you, believe me.

Unknown Speaker (61:04)

So when people ask why you support Donald Trump, you just tell them he's going to take our economy from here to here. He's not some cautious politician.

Dave Rubin (61:17)

He says what I'm thinking. I don't know what it is. I just like the guy.

Unknown Speaker (61:27)

A message from racists for Donald Trump.

Dave Rubin (61:30)

Okay, I get it's not funny. We don't have to deal with that part. But do you see that was CBS covering Bill Maher, calling him a racist and everything else. Do you think Bill Maher still thinks he's a racist. Do you think Bill Maher still thinks he's Nazi and Hitler and everything else? No, he definitely does. Not. Not so Donald Trump, you beat the machine in that sense, SNL is completely and utterly irrelevant, right? Completely and utterly irrelevant. You've changed the culture and the Democrats are still going off the deep end. So just stay the course and then listen to this. In terms of where the Democrats are out, this is what the opport, where the Democrats are at, this is what the opportunity is. This is from the New York gop. Democrats have lost their pride in America. Republicans never did did. While the left teaches our children to be shamed of our history, Republicans still believe in the promise of this great nation. So 92% of Republicans right now believe in pride in America. They are proud to be Americans. That's down to 36% of Democrats. What kind of political party can succeed if only 36% of your voters even think the country's fundamentally good in the first place? Place hopefully one that can't succeed. And that does bring you back to that demoralization thing from Yuri Besmanov earlier. Phoenix, let's skip this Donald Trump thing and we'll go to the final portion here. I want to show you this. So what does Donald Trump have to do? He has to ignore the haters. He's gotten quite good at that. But I wanted to give him a little nudge in that direction. He has to keep doing the good things so that when CNN says, oh my God, Donald Trump did this, the economy's gonna crash. And then we find out where we're at right now, he can just. What is it? Success is the best revenge. That's what he was saying all along. And then you know what? Surprise people by being a consistently good man, which is what he's done. And I thought this was a spectacular video to end the show on. This is RFK Jr talking about how now knowing Trump, he has just seen a part of him that he did not think existed just a year or two ago. And, you know, President Trump does that. Whatever you think about, there are, there's a new feeling in America now that, you know, we're, we're back on the upswing again. You know, as he says, the country is hot again. You know, and all around the world, people see that too. And, you know, a lot of things have surprised me about the president because I, you know, bought into this fact that he was this one dimensional character, that he was kind of a bombastic narcissist and all this. And you know, and part of it is hearing it all the time on tv. But also, you know, the way that he conducts himself sometimes validates those, if you have that narrative, you can find things, what he does that validate that narrative. But what I've been surprised in getting to know him is what a kind of deep, multidimensional and thoughtful character he is and, and how well I also thought, oh, he doesn't read and you know, he's not interested in anything. He's immensely curious, inquisitive. And also the most surprising thing is because I Adam pegged as a narcissist when narcissists are incapable of empathy. And he's one of the most empathetic people that I've met. So isn't that something? There's a guy who was running against him as a Democrat only two years ago telling you a little insight or something. So that's the Trump that we all know. So I would say to Trump, if you're watching today, don't listen to the panicans who thought you were going to lead us to Thermonuclear War III. You were right on that 12 day war wrapped up. Don't listen to the people that want to destroy you. And Elon right now. You did it once. I think you will resolve it again and then we will continue to build a good positive vision for America that actually will be the force field against crazies on the right to whatever extent they exist and the very, very obvious crazies on the left. That is our program for today. I thank you for watching. We have a post game show@rubenreport.locals.com in 30 seconds. Goodbye.
