Hey, how you doing? DL Rice 64 saying to me, how you doing? How you doing? How you doing? How you doing? Tom Holman. I love the how you doing. I think we need a Friday how you doing from Tom Holman. I like that guy. He's pretty good. He's pretty good. He's busy, though. You see what he's up to? These guys are deporting a lot of people. They want to deport a lot more people.

We got an update today on just how frequently these illegals, this plan to get the illegals out of the country is leading to assaults on members of ICE. It's crazy. Breitbart's got this really important report that assaults on ICE are now, remember I've been using the number 400% to describe all of this. Now it's even unfortunately higher. Take a look. ICE assaults are now up 500%.

500% increase in assaults on these ICE agents while they're trying to arrest illegals. This is what the left has created. Of course, they've created all this chaos. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents now, according to Breitbart, are facing a 500% increase in assaults as they attempt to locate and arrest illegal aliens living in the United States of America. That's according to Department of Homeland Security data that was just obtained by Breitbart. Tricia McLaughlin, you've seen her on the program.

She said the following to Breitbart quote, today the Department of Homeland Security has released new data revealing that ICE law enforcement is now facing that 500% increase in assaults while merely carrying out their job enforcement operations.

McLaughlin pointed to the recent arrest of Roberto Carlos Munoz, an illegal alien and convicted child sex offender. The guy, the bad dude, dragged an ICE agent 50 yards with his car as he attempted to evade arrest in Bloomington, Minnesota.

She said just this week, an ICE officer dragged 50 yards by a car, arresting an illegal alien sex offender. Every day, the men and women of ICE are putting their lives on the line to protect and to defend the lives of American citizens. And then she called out all the people we've been calling out. Hakeem Jeffries, Michelle Wu, Tampon Tim Walls, Karen Bass for Los Angeles. All these people who constantly are attacking ICE agents, treating them like garbage and suggesting they're doing something nefarious by actually enforcing the law.

So this is the big thing. I realize there's a lot of stuff going on. The Iran thing, it matters immensely. But in terms of what's happening domestically, there's nothing more important than getting control of our country and getting our sovereignty back. Tom Ullman and company trying to do that. The left actively working against them and hectoring and threatening and harassing ICE agents with each passing day.

And this happened again this week. Eric Swalwell, who is, is, chat, I mean, is the right word tool for Eric Swalwell? Is that the right tool? Is that the right word? I think tool is the correct term. We got to bring that back. Eric Swalwell is a tool. Here he is attacking ICE agents again this week for protecting their identities. Take a look at cut eight here. Eric Swalwell. Not enough in the last couple of weeks.

about ICE agents and wearing masks that I think when we win the majority in the House, you're going to see enough Democrats make it a priority for

ICE enforcement, that they are no longer faceless. It looks too much like some 1800s bank robber or some KGB officer in Russia pulling protesters off the streets. And it really bothers people that that's how they're conducting it. And so show us your face. No, it doesn't. It is going to be a part of, I think, a democratic enforcement policy in the future.

okay look this little turd the whole point is to threaten ice agents that's that's what eric swalwell's doing he wants their identities exposed so that people can dox and threaten the ice agents there's no other explanation for this none whatsoever there's no decency underlying any of this it's to harass these people

In fact, a swallow is such a ridiculous figure that it took like four seconds to find evidence of the fact that he's just straight up lying about his position on masks anyway. Go back to 2021. Here's an actual tweet from Congressman Fang Fang. He wrote, I had a mask on as I stepped off the floor. An aide for Marjorie Taylor Greene yelled at me to take my mask off. No one should be bullied for wearing a mask, Swalwell declared.

So I told the bully what I thought of his order. Predictably, he went speechless. I regret I wasn't more explicit. No one should be bullied for wearing a mask, says this moron. Tool is the word, says Nordmeier. Yeah, I totally agree. Tool is the word. The guy's a tool. You know, little Dennis the Menace. Eric Swalwell.

He's a whack job. But there he is. He's the guy who is still rooting for the destruction of ICE here as ICE is just simply trying to do his job every single day. That's it, to get all these illegals out of the country. All right, so we get the assaults on ICE going up.

Eric Swalwell has been rooting on the assaults on ICE. But in the process, who are these ICE agents actually picking up? Who are the bad dudes that are being picked up by ICE agents with each passing day? Well, Kristi Noem just listed out a few of them. Take a look at cut nine. Here's the DHS secretary laying out the bad dudes that we picked up just in the last week alone.

Every day I get handed a list of the people that we've arrested in this country. They're here illegally that are criminals. And these are some of the worst of the worst. Here we have a Guatemalan we picked up today, aggravated assault against a police officer. This one, rape of a victim under age of 17 years old. This one robbed a disabled senior citizen. This individual, 12 different sex offenses against children.

If you look at his two counts of statutory rape of a child, two counts of indecent assault of a battery, these guys are off the street today because of the work of our ICE enforcement officers, law enforcement across the country. Thank you for making America safe again. And thank you, President Donald J. Trump. Okay, so that's who Eric Swalwell is trying to defend. I'm sorry, that's just true. That's who Eric Swalwell is standing up for, for the rapists, the murderers, the pedophiles. That's who he's standing up for.

And you know, maybe he's smart enough to know what he's doing and this is just malice. Maybe he's just a complete moron who can be taken advantage of by a Chinese spy called Fang Fang. He became convinced that somehow she had a bad case of the Eric Swalwells, that something about his personality was just that attractive to a foreign woman. She just adored him. And you know, Swalwell, he's just got this across he has to bear. It is so ridiculous. It is so completely ridiculous.

And so he roots on the pedophiles, the murderers, the rapists. Meanwhile, the rest of us root on order and bringing back our country, getting our sovereignty restored. So good for the DHS secretary. I know they want to deport a lot more people. That's why they want the big, beautiful bill passed.

They want to get that thing out of the Senate, onto the president and pass because they're going to get a lot more funding for ICE, law enforcement, border security to get rid of more of what Kristi Noem called the dirt bags we have here. Just a few of the dirt bags that we picked up, she carefully explained. Would like to see more of that. Also, there are ways to.

convince illegals that it's not worth the effort of staying in the country. In fact, things can get kind of miserable for you if you keep doing that. Florida's Attorney General, James Uthmeyer, Uthmeyer, that's how he pronounces his name. I didn't realize that. It's Uthmeyer.

He has a plan for something he's calling alligator Alcatraz. Take a look at this chat. Tell me if you endorse this idea as we play this clip for you. Here is Florida's Attorney General cut three advocating for creating a detention space in the Everglades surrounded by alligators. Attorney General James Upmeyer here at the Miami-Dade Collier training facility. This is an old virtually abandoned airport facility right in the middle of the Everglades.

Florida's been leading on immigration enforcement, supporting the Trump administration and ICE's efforts to detain and deport criminal aliens. The governor tasked state leaders to identify places for new temporary detention facilities. I think this is the best one. As I call it, alligator Alcatraz.

This 30 square mile area is completely surrounded by the Everglades. It presents an efficient, low-cost opportunity to build a temporary detention facility because you don't need to invest that much in the perimeter. People get out, there's not much waiting for them other than alligators and pythons.

Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide. Within just 30 to 60 days after we begin construction, it could be up and running and could house as many as a thousand criminal aliens. This presents a great opportunity for the state of Florida to work with Miami-Dade and Collier County's alligator Alcatraz. We're ready to go.

Alligator Alcatraz, we're ready to go. Now, theoretically, they wouldn't have to stay there that long, but just the idea that we opened Alligator Alcatraz and

I'm all in on President Trump accentuating this, calling it that, being like, "Hey, by the way, we're gonna send people to Aligatr or Alcatraz." So what are our options right now for sending some of these illegals out? At the moment, we can send them to Gitmo, we can send them to Guantanamo Bay, President Trump's been doing that. Some of these really violent ones, they're sending all the way to El Salvador for that high security prison for gangsters where they get their heads shaved and then they're packed in like sardines.

And then alligator Alcatraz, you know, you want to be here in the United States illegally, especially committing acts of violence against the American people. Yeah, that's not going to happen on your way out. You'll have a stay in alligator Alcatraz. And I love the attorney general be like, we really don't need a security perimeter. We won't have to set up anything. It's not like you're going to get far.

It's Florida, and it's Florida in the summer. This is South Florida, baby. It is not easy. Dead in the middle of the state. There's nothing there but an old airstrip and a lot of alligators. So, Chad, how are we feeling about this? Chad, yes, do it, says Sandstrip47. That's a long yes to this. Bump McGroin says, illegals equal alligator food. Yeah, we could see that happening. And then Bandit Darville says, America, fuck yeah. Yeah.

Alligator Alcatraz. That's really, that's really funny. And good. The whole point is it's supposed to be a deterrent. Yes, it's a little trolly, but it's supposed to be a deterrent. How did Trump lock down the border?

how did trump get to the point where the president gets to the point where nobody's coming across nobody's coming across zero illegals released into the united states in may how did how did that even happen the answer to that is because the world is on notice everybody knows that this is a fool's errand to try and come into the united states now so if you can project that it's a fool's errand to be in the united states illegally to stay here as tens of millions of people's have ten tens of millions of people have

Well, then you can compel them to leave on their own. Self deportations are already on the rise. We've been going over the numbers this past week. I was telling you about the New York Post op-ed on this subject. They dug into the numbers. Nearly a million self deportations already since Trump has been in office, a million. Now, is that anywhere near solving our problem? No, it's not.

But it's progress. And it's a lot more progress than we've had in many, many years. And that predates the first Trump administration, because the Washington establishment has been totally fine with letting illegals into our country and letting it be overrun. So a fun idea from the attorney general of Florida saying, yeah, this is a way to get rid of these guys. Now, in reaction to.

immigration enforcement. The left, of course, has been rioting in addition to inducing threats against ICE, like Eric Swalwell's doing, and leading to assaults on ICE. They've been rioting in major American cities, not least of all Los Angeles. We've been watching these riots take place in order to stop immigration enforcement. This is lawlessness in support of lawlessness. That's what they're doing. And so the president mobilized two big forces of troops. He mobilized the National Guard,

in California. He took control of the National Guard and he said, go in, restore order. And he sent in the Marines. He sent in the Marines. We got a lot of Marines stationed in California, conveniently located. The president sends them from 29 Palms in to help bring order to Los Angeles. And we've seen those images. We've seen the Marines doing the job. We've seen the National Guard doing the job. And by the way, God bless you fellows for doing that. Thank you for that. Restoring order to this country. That's what we need.

And so greasy Gavin Newsom has objected to this because he wants the lawlessness. He's been endorsing it too, like Eric Swalwell. And so he began bringing this to the court system. He said, guys, get in the way here. Stop Trump from doing this. Stop him. He can't have control of the National Guard. It's my National Guard, Gavin Newsom insisted, like the little tyrant he is. I'm here to tell you, Gavin Newsom just suffered yet another setback in this idiotic position that he's taken.

Take a look at this report. Last night, we get this update that an appeals court, not just any appeals court, wait until you hear which one, has blocked Gavin Newsom's bid to reclaim control of the National Guard from Trump. This is wonderful. A federal appeals court has indefinitely blocked California Governor Gavin Newsom's effort to reclaim control of the National Guard troops that President Trump deployed to Los Angeles.

The three-judge panel of the San Francisco-based Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. That's right, you heard me correctly. The nutty ninth, the normally nutty ninth, ruled unanimously that President Trump has acted completely within his authority when he took control of 4,000 California National Guard troops under a law that's never been invoked without the consent of a state governor, Politico adds.

So the nutty ninth comes in and says, yes, of course, the law is crystal clear here. This is Trump's job. This is Trump's job to do. Now, they point out in this political piece that among the judges who were involved here, again, a unanimous decision from this three-judge panel, two of them were appointed by President Trump. One of them was appointed by President Biden or whoever was running the White House. But President Otto Penn's White House installed

one of the judges who ruled on this and they unanimously concluded that trump has the power here they said trump's got enormous latitude to determine that the protests and the related violence were interfering with the execution of federal law the judges did say that there are limits to the president's ability to call up the guard but there was definitely enough evidence of civil unrest and danger to federal officials to justify trump's actions now remember

Gavin Newsom came out and he said, no, this is fine. We don't need the National Guard in here. I'm not deploying them because we don't even need them. The LAPD has it covered, he claimed as he lied. And that wasn't true. And three judges to include one appointed by President Autopen determined it wasn't true. There was dramatic danger and civil unrest going on in L.A. such that the president's totally within his power to deploy the National Guard, to take control of the California National Guard and deploy them.

The President of the United States is very pleased with the outcome here and rightfully so. Not all of these decisions have been breaking his way, but good to see this one doing that. Here's the President saying big win in the Ninth Circuit, he wrote on Truth Social.

on the president's core power to call in the national guard the judges obviously realize that gavin newscom is incompetent and ill-prepared but this is much bigger than gavin because all over the united states if our cities and our people need protection we are the ones to give it to them the president wrote

Should state and local police be unable for whatever reason to get the job done? By the way, for whatever reason means if Democrats get in the way of law enforcement, that the federal government can come in and save those American citizens. He says, he writes, this is a great decision for our country and we will continue to protect and defend law abiding Americans. Congratulations to the Ninth Circuit. America is proud of you tonight.

- Yeah, no, that's true. I'm happy about this outcome. I'm very happy about this outcome. And I am shocked that it was the nutty knife. This is the kind of circuit court that the left usually goes judge shopping for. If they're gonna place it in any circuit, they wanna place it in the ninth circuit because they believe it'll always stop Trump regardless of how legal his behavior is. And a big victory that Gavin Newsom didn't anticipate, greasy Gavin Newsom. Now, greasy Gavin Newsom is pretending that he won here

So in the distortion filter that is the American left, they play games and pretend constantly, including when they've lost decisively in court. Here's the governor of California now saying Donald Trump is not a king and not above the law. He wrote last night in the middle of the night. He was up at 1221 a.m. At least that was Eastern Time. So, OK, maybe I'm overstating it. In California, it was earlier.

But he said, tonight the court rightly rejected Trump's claim that he can do whatever he wants with the National Guard and not have to explain himself to a court. I'm sorry, what court decision did you see? They rejected Trump's claims? No, no, no. They fully embraced and endorsed Trump's claims.

We will not let this authoritarian use of military soldiers against citizens go unchecked, said Gavin Newsom. What in the hell are you even talking about? There's nothing authoritarian here. We're following black letter law here, clearly. And the use of the military, Marines are not soldiers, idiot. They're Marines. The Army, those are soldiers. And this whole thing, using them against citizens, we won't allow it to go unchecked.

They're using it to restore order for citizens. That's what's happening here. So every sentence a lie from Governor Gavin Newsom of California. Gavin Newsom's got another scandal on his hands, though. Remember the French laundry scandal from COVID? Remember that? Remember when everybody else was locked down in the state of California and Gavin Newsom got to go hang out at a fancy restaurant with things on the menu that I definitely can't pronounce, but they're

And they're also way out of my price range. Like everything about it was so elitist and so arrogant and so detached from what it means to be a good governor. You know, President Trump doesn't take a salary. President Trump pays $100,000 to stall American flags at the White House this week. And meanwhile, Gavin Newsom, tyrannical Gavin Newsom, locks down the people of his state and then he goes to a fancy restaurant to rub it into their faces.

I've got an update. We've got another French Laundry, French Laundry Part Deux coming up in just a moment as cities like L.A. burn. What's Gavin Newsom been doing with his free time? I'll explore that with you in just a moment. We've got a lot to get to. And also Chris Bedford is right around the corner. We've got a lot going on here.

Thank you to Poconos. All right. Yeah, it is. It is really great. It's super convenient. Okay. Let's get into Gavin Newsom's latest scandal, the French Laundry Part Deux. City Journal has an excellent piece up this week on Gavin Newsom and what he was doing while L.A. was on fire this past week.

Take a look here. Gavin Newsom sipped Cabernet while Los Angeles burned, they explained. Oh, you don't say. Oh, he was doing it again? As riots engulfed Los Angeles and mobs vandalized public buildings, incinerated vehicles, and assaulted law enforcement officers, California Governor Gavin Newsom was enjoying a swanky wine-tasting party in Napa Valley. Chat, any of you live in California?

Is this what you want out of your governor? This is insanity. This is basically him saying, let them eat cake. This is up yours from the governor of the Golden State, or as my friend Chris Plant calls it now, the Golden Shower State. That's how they treat you in California. The wine tasting was held on the afternoon of June 7th of 2025 at the Odette Estate Winery, which Newsom co-founded in 2011. Oh, a little bit of corruption to go with all of this.

Dubbed Vineyard Vibes, the event was a fundraiser for the Plump Jack Foundation, founded by Newsome's sister, and featured contemporary yet sophisticated wines, live jazz music, and locally made pizza and smash burgers. Oh, how fun. It's the perfect kickoff to summer fun, read the promotion for it. Yes. The FET will take place on the winery crush pad, where we'll gather from music, food, conversation, and delicious wine.

They declared ostentatiously. A source who photographed Newsom at the event expressed shock that the governor was in attendance, given that riots had just broken out in Los Angeles the day before. I couldn't believe it, the source said. Well, believe it. This is Gavin Newsom. He always does crap like this. He was just walking around like this was an everyday occurrence. Newsom was at the wine party for at least 90 minutes, according to the source, who said that when the governor finally left, he appeared to retreat to the inner rooms of his winery.

Yeah. As a city journal points out, the riots were in full blown chaos by this time. It's not like Gavin Newsom was at the party and then the riot broke out. The city of L.A. was on fire already within the last 24 hours. And Gavin Newsom said a wine tasting party would be wonderful to go to. So when the president mobilized the National Guard to protect the city of Los Angeles,

It was at a time when the governor of the state was abandoning his own people so he could throw back some Cabernets and it completely ignored their well-being. So, yes, we have we have another one of these. Gavin Newsom, the French laundry yet again doing it to his people yet again. That recall, man, that should have been successful. Twenty twenty one. That recall of Gavin Newsom. You know why it wasn't successful? Remember this?

Because organizations like CHIRLA, which took taxpayer money from both California and federal taxpayers in order to support illegal aliens and to induce the protests that turned into riots now. CHIRLA, the very same organization, gave Gavin Newsom money to keep him from being recalled. That's right. They supported the effort to protect Gavin Newsom from accountability. So, of course, Gavin Newsom turned a blind eye. Oh, you're starting riots? Well, I owe you, so I'll let you do that. That's what happened.

So there's the update on Gavin, Greasy Gavin Newsom, and what he's doing to our state in California. Who's this? One man's opinion. And it's true. One man's opinion says, move on, Vince. Too much time spent on Gavin. How about no? How about that? Actually, I am actually technically moving on right now. But here's the thing.

I care a lot about my own country and that includes California. I don't want these illegals here. I do want order to be restored. And if you can't send a message to Los Angeles, which by the way, Stephen Miller in the White House has made it really clear that this battle is fought in Los Angeles. That's where the whole battle for the United States is being fought. If you can't restore order in a once great American city, you're going to lose the rest of the country. So that's why I'm on this. I think this is important.

I definitely think this is important. If Gavin Newsom wants to sell out the people of this state, that's fine. But I'm going to take his greasy head. I'm going to rub it directly in the sins that he's committing and make sure that the people know what's going on in their state. That's actually happening. All right. But but it is true. I do. I do have some other things to get through here, including the president of the United States coming at us with some new information about what's going on with Iran.

with Iran, and he's seeking a deal here. It was Caroline Leavitt who shared the news yesterday that the president is saying, okay, look, I'm extending this timeline to within two weeks. Take a look, cut one. Here's Caroline Leavitt on this subject. In light of that news, I have a message directly from the president, and I quote...

Based on the fact that there's a substantial chance of negotiations that may or may not take place with Iran in the near future, I will make my decision whether or not to go within the next two weeks. That's a quote directly from the president for all of you today. Within the next two weeks. Now, let me point something out here about what happened.

what the president is doing. I know that there's a lot of, let's just say hysterical commentary on the subject of Iran right now. And there's people kind of going at each other from all different directions. By and large, I think the right, like Trump supporters are engaged in a very healthy debate on how do we stop Iran from getting a nuclear weapon while also stopping an immense quagmire that the United States gets sucked into. That is a deeply reasonable and sober debate. And guess what the president's doing?

He's being deeply reasonable. And as a lifelong sober guy, he's being completely sober on this subject, completely sober. The president's keeping his feet planted. He's keeping his head up and he's thinking clearly, okay, what do we do about all of this?

And so right now he's saying that if we're going to do a strike, I'm going to make that decision within the next two weeks. Now, we've got a couple of updates on this subject. One, in the last 24 hours, Benjamin Netanyahu did an interview where he explained that he doesn't actually need the United States to drop bunker buster bombs on Fordow. It's not...

It's not mandatory. In fact, he can do it on his own. Take a look here. Byron York pulled some of this from a Times of Israel piece overnight. And here's what they're saying. That Israel, the prime minister says Israel is going to be able to hit all nuclear facilities.

and has destroyed half of all of Iran's launchers. In a rare interview, a Hebrew interview, Netanyahu said that the campaign is ahead of schedule and that the IDF can strike Fordow without the United States if needed. He also stated that the offensive will aid hostages return as Hamas relies on Iran. Okay, that's a good development here.

And the piece quotes Netanyahu in this capacity, asked whether Israel can destroy the underground Fordow facility without assistance from the United States. Netanyahu said, we will achieve all of our objectives and hit all of their nuclear facilities, he said. We have the capability to do that. Fordow is, as you know, buried under a mountain and widely considered to be out of reach of all but America's bunker buster bombs. But that doesn't mean they can't do this effectively.

with a ground invasion if they wanted to or send in special teams that can do this on the ground in fact we had an Iran expert who used to work for President Trump in the last administration earlier this week Gabriel nirona who was saying actually there may be a lot of um wisdom and actually send for Israel not the United States for Israel to send people in to seize that uranium instead of blowing it all up and having a nuclear disaster in addition to

the destruction of the nuclear enrichment site, maybe go in and seize all of this uranium. There are definitely teams who know what to do. In fact, the United States trains people on this very mission, how you would take apart a dangerous nuclear facility. And certainly the Israelis must have the wherewithal to do that as well, being a nuclear armed power with a pretty sophisticated military. So there's Netanyahu saying, guys, we don't have to have the United States here.

he said whether the president joins in or not that's entirely his decision so this is a good news and a good indication that you've got netanyahu saying look this is within our capability and i like to hear that because that diminishes the necessity necessity for the united states to get involved and to put u.s troops on the line

So that could be a meaningful announcement here. Additionally, Iran has come out and they said, yeah, yeah, yeah, we want to negotiate. But their claim as of this morning is reportedly that, yes, they're willing to talk about enrichment levels, but they're not willing to get rid of their nuclear capabilities. Well, I don't think that's going to work. I don't think that's going to work at all.

I think President Trump is done with that shit. I think, as Pete Hegseth might say, what does Pete Hegseth say, Justin? We're done with that shit. Yes, we are. We're done with that shit. There you are, Justin. I was curious. Yeah, I was just curious about how quickly you could snap on that. I was wondering. Five buttons to click? Is that the case? Okay. All right.

That's all right. That's all right. We're not done with that shit. We'll figure that out. We're done with that shit. Yes, we're done with that shit. Thank you, Justin. I love that. So we'll get updates on that coming up. I got Chris Bedford joining us from the blaze. We're going to talk about those Democrats living in the wilderness. And but they then won't necessarily be for long. Right now, they think they're undergoing some sort of Rocky montage. By the end of it, they're going to come out victorious, they think.

I hope not. Chris Bedford's got a prescription on how to keep them there. We'll explore it. But first, I have to share with you the great sponsors of this program. That includes Birch Gold.

He's over at The Blaze these days and he joins us on the program. Chris, good to talk to you as always, sir. It's great to be here, Vince.

Let me just start with the Democrats here, because I know you're writing about it today in your excellent newsletter. You point out, as I've been pointing out relentlessly, that they're a cartoonish party right now. They have no obvious leader. You know, slow-witted Hakeem Jeffries is kind of their highest profile guy, and he's incapable of speaking English sentences. But you think while they are down, we should definitely not count them out. Why is that?

I think the reason for that is because Republicans are so exposed right now. I mean, if you take a step back, the GOP has a lot of different vulnerabilities that could be taken advantage of by an actually capable politician or a party that had its acts together.

I mean, we stand at the precipice of another war in the Middle East that no party is interested in. It pulls abysmally. There's about 25% support for this war in a snap poll, granted, I think by the Washington Post.

this week, but there's 45% opposition and the rest of the people didn't quite yet have an opinion. Now, obviously, if President Trump just went in, was successful, he got out, nothing bad happened, then you'd have a great ticker tape parade and they'd be excited. Can I ask you about those numbers for a second? Because...

I'm seeing a lot of, there's a lot, people are throwing polling numbers out right now. And there's some surveys, there's majority support for stopping Iran from having a nuclear weapon. Okay. But I think the point that you're making is, it's being asked in a different way. It's about,

desire to be in a war with Iran. And that number is very small in the United States. Is that what you're saying? Yes, exactly. It's something that polling can be so disingenuous in that and it can be so misleading. Well, the average person, I think most people, don't want Iran to have a nuclear weapon. Anyone who understands the threats they make

I mean, you've got the Holy Father in Rome coming out and saying no nation has a right to have their-- has to deal with being constantly threatened in its existence. They have a right to defend against that. And he's a pretty peaceful guy by all accounts. So that makes sense. But if it says, well,

Well, America has to do it. America has to get involved. America might get stuck there. Now, these are these are aren't even part of the polling questions. But what happens if the Iranian regime topples? It's not like Israel has either the mandate or the interest or the manpower to go in and stabilize it. It would come down to us. Yes. So if this thing if this thing gets a momentum that does suck the United States into it, which is entirely possible.

It could have a deep, just as a political matter, going back to where we started, it could have a deep impact on the Republicans' ability to win in the midterms, right?

Yeah, it would have a deep impact everywhere. It would obviously change the face of the Far East of the Middle East, with the whole regime collapsing, Saudi Arabia's biggest enemy, and the potential for refugees once again flooding towards Europe. It could also start to split the MAGA coalition if it became a really serious thing that required U.S. forces on the ground,

Which it might, because Europe can't do this, China doesn't want to do this, Russia's busy, Israel can't do this. So if anyone's going to stabilize anything, it's us. That could have a dangerous effect on the Republican coalition. At the same time, it could have an impact on America's friendship with Israel, which has been something that has gone back for years and years and years and largely been not questioned by either political party until the last 10 years when Democrats started, their base started to really revolt against this. You're seeing it on the streets, you're seeing it in the campuses.

But if Republicans who specifically voted now for Donald Trump three times to stay out of these sorts of wars got sucked into another one, then that would start to fray the Israelis' relationship with the United States on both sides of the aisle. And that could be dangerous for what is an important relationship.

So I've been saying this week, and I've heard a couple of other people say it. Charlie Kirk is of this opinion, I think. J.D. Vance clearly seems to be of this opinion, being the vice president of the United States, that President Trump is uniquely situated to thread the needle on this subject because...

He has campaigned on two things, principally on foreign policy. One, no more needless endless wars. I'm not going to get sucked into that. We're not in the nation building phase. I'm not making the mistakes of George W. Bush. In fact, he campaigned on condemning Bush's foreign policy. But two, Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon.

As far as I'm concerned, Bedford, I'm looking at what's going on with Trump and I'm thinking he's the one guy I've ever seen have this much power in Washington who's taken, I think, the single most sensible position on this subject.

Yeah, you know, to address some of what his critics say, his attitude towards Iran right now is not at all incongruent with what he's ever—he's always run on this. He wants to do things strong. He wants to do things fast. He doesn't want a nation built. And he showed you could do this potentially in Syria when Assad actually crossed red lines that he'd established.

He showed that he was capable of doing this around the world. He's willing to actually make those strikes and then not get involved. I mean, Obama's people didn't know what to do about ISIS. And Donald Trump said, you just bomb them into oblivion and hunt them down like dogs. That's the end. There's nothing else to it. And then you leave. So if he could do that, it'd be great. It's like a friend of mine once gave me a tip before marriage. He said, by the way, there's a lot of different things that go into a healthy marriage, but

The number one trick to not getting divorced is never get divorced. You just don't do it. So maybe the number one trick to not nation building is just don't do it. It doesn't matter what's going on. But that could mean some trouble for Europe if you end up getting another rush of a million refugees coming their way. Yes. Well, I don't know. We have such a long history of cleaning up all of Europe's problems. How about Europe cleans up its own mess? Maybe they can do that. Build a wall.

Okay so as far as the Democrats are concerned okay so they're lying in wait hoping for chaos they're constantly trying to inject chaos into everything in hopes that it brings down the Trump presidency clearly here domestically um but also I understand that that you have some thoughts on this big beautiful bill and the way that Democrats are trying to exploit it right now in order to figure out some way to make it a political liability for the president now as far as I'm concerned

This thing has victories all in it. The tax cuts are amazing. The border enforcement, the interior enforcement, amazing. I'm all for it. This is the Trump agenda on steroids. But you think that the left...

If they can get control of the American mind, they can convince people there's something bad going on here? Yes, because whenever you have something that big, you're going to have parts of it that are exposed to your political opponents to be able to attack it. I mean, the Republicans were very successful in defining what Obamacare was better than the president at the time was able to define it and made it a pejorative until the Democrats tried to –

basically reclaimed the word and now everyone calls it Obamacare, but they were able to get up mass movement and they really beat the heck or shellacked, as he said, the Democrats in the midterm election after that by defining what this was. Here comes down to polling once again. So if you ask people in the United States, do you want cuts to Medicaid and food stamps? They say, no, absolutely not, majority of people. But if you tell them, how about removing dead people from Medicaid rolls?

How about working-aged, able-bodied adult men who self-report spending most of their day playing video games? How about removing illegal aliens from Medicaid rolls?

Those are as close as you're going to get to complete and total agreement. I think it's 86% of people say we should remove the deceased from our Medicaid rolls, and those other 14% who want to keep them there, I don't think you're ever going to reach them. So these are actually really popular. The one aspect of this, which I'm writing about from Monday's newsletter, that is dangerous for Republicans is the Senate, which is reliably 15 years behind the American mood, just in terms of their age and their nature and their tenure.

They want to go after some of the provider taxes. Now, this is classic Republican economics, because provider taxes are essentially a tax scheme for states to not have to pay their share, their 50 percent share of Medicaid funding.

But at the same time, rural hospitals, which have been devastated since Obamacare passed and are really important in a lot of poor, low-tax red states like Josh Hawley's state, like West Virginia, where Jim Justice is coming from, they could get really hurt by actual reforms to this. So here you're starting to see the populists and the traditional conservative economist types

Clashing in the US Senate and Democrats cannot wait to say, oh yeah, the party of the working class, well, they just shut down the only hospital within 200 miles in this state. How are you going to deal with that? But Republicans are working on a fix on this, which is just its own fund for providing stability to rural hospitals with much smaller beds, much smaller, much poorer clientele usually or patients.

to be able to actually destabilize them and make sure finally that we're not experiencing the closures the United States has seen over the last 10, 15 years. - You know, I can't help, when we think about taking care of Americans and what are the costs and what are the trade-offs, I can't help but think every single time, why don't we deport tens of millions of people who are here illegally sucking the system dry?

i mean that seems to be that's the most important as far as a messaging thing and not just messaging just reality want to save a crap ton of money as you just pointed out 1.4 million illegals are tapping into medicaid get rid of them and that's that by the way is a conservative estimate there's no way it's just 1.4 million illegals but that's what the trump administration has been telling us

You have emergency rooms across the country that are overwhelmed by illegal foreign nationals who are just using it for medical service, doing it at the expense of American citizens and then never paying the bills. And that sticks American taxpayers with those bills. It's insanity, Chris Bedford. So when we talk about this issue, I think emphasizing getting our sovereignty back and cutting taxes and.

and you know and actually getting rid of the fraud and especially the illegal fraud that's going to go a long way i think towards convincing the american people this is very good for them yeah i mean medicaid expenses have increased in the united states federal expenses 56.5 percent in the last five years that's almost entirely joe biden's presidency that's a massive surge in illegal immigrants of course it's covid but a lot of the stuff that kova did has stayed in place as far as the benefits and people not actually going back to work i don't

I think a lot of Americans are happy that we have, as a civilized, wealthy nation, a safety net for those people who've fallen through the cracks of society. I don't think that anyone could come up with a reason why we should have had an almost 60% increase in the cost of one of our most expensive benefits.

That's being taken advantage of. That's fraud there. So Republicans just need to get out ahead. They need to fix some of their problems, and they need to message on this. They need to have the advertising. And the super PACs are already going so that they can define this. And to their great credit, not even to their credit, Democrats are completely incapable of capitalizing on this. Gavin Newsom is being turned on by his own people, turning on his own city. His city's burning down twice now in a year. Yes.

Everything is going to heck for the Democrats. They don't have any kind of champion. Okay, so if I can, because I know you're good at making fun of these people, so let's just do that. I'm looking at these DNs, the Democrat Party right now. And like I said, Hakeem Jeffries, he's at best a midwit. The guy is not actually capable of doing anything masterful on behalf of his party. Meanwhile, like over in the Senate, Chuck Schumer is just a goof. I mean, the guy is ridiculous. He's threatening Supreme Court justices. He's insane.

And the most outspoken Democrats right now are people like Jasmine Crockett, who the president relishes the fact he was kind of I'll play some audio coming up on that. He thinks it's hilarious that she's kind of the leader of their party right now. And meanwhile, the DNC, nobody knows this guy's name, but I'll just tell everybody they have a guy called Ken Martin who's running the DNC. That's that's the actual DNC chairman. He's he's a nobody.

You've got Randy Weingarten and various union officials quitting the DNC in a huff. They just fired David Hogg because he's a white guy. They straight up chose racial and gender prejudice in order to get rid of a guy who was advocating for primaries in their party because he sees the writing on the wall. He's like, our party sucks right now. I mean, I gotta be honest. I'm deriving about as much joy as you can from the chaos in their party right now, Chris.

I think that if Jasmine Crockett didn't exist, conservative media would have to invent her just for the lulls, just for the clicks, just for the quotes. She's a perfect thing. She's just an embodiment of all of the dumb and all of the "yes, queen" and all of the snapback put into like a member of Congress, which is kind of embarrassing for her constituents.

But it's just a constant source of entertainment. It is. And the DNC is such a mess. I mean, you have Ken Martin crying on the phone talking to the principals of the party because David Hogg has screwed so much up for him. Now, granted...

David Hogg comes in there as some 20-something year old and says, "Well, I'm going to take party money and I'm going to use it against party people I don't like, and I'm going to try and use it to raise money for my nonprofit." And that's not what you're supposed to do as vice chairman of the DNC. So they use the racial quota system, which they have in place, to kick him out. But now there's such uproar. You got Randi Weingarten, who like might be maybe the worst person in the country. She's the one who's responsible for keeping your kids out of school for all those years.

and protecting the bureaucracy that has grown up and using teachers as a face mask, as a skin suit for what's actually just a bloated bureaucratic system of social justice warriors. She's the person responsible, but she's also one of the last remaining union heads that's really truly aligned with the Democratic Party. She just resigned her post. You've got state, government, federal, and municipal employees and county employees union

The head of that just left the DNC. I'm not going to be a part of this. They're looking around. I guess they have service employees international. But between that and the actual manufacturing unions joining the GOP, this is a rough time to be a Democrat. And the internal battles they're having have not yet been figured out because I think no champion has actually risen up. Well, also, as you've pointed out in the past, all of their leadership is ridiculously old. Like, Paul.

First of all, older than the Politburo. Like a bunch of these guys have already died this year. Members of Congress, Democrat members of Congress keep dropping like flies. They keep passing away. Did you see the video? Fellas, can we take me full screen for a second here? I want to show people this. This is a video of Jerry Nadler this week who was denied access to an ICE facility. I don't even know how they got him there, but he's standing for a second. Take a look at this. Here's Jerry Nadler.

This guy, he can barely walk. Look at this. He's like stumbling around. There you go. He's moving half an inch at a time. This guy's in no shape to be a member of Congress right now. And so that's the state of their party right now, Chris Bedford. I'm kind of getting the feeling that these guys are all headed to the grave really rapidly.

When Ronald Reagan dealt with two Soviet premiers dying in his first term, he said, "I don't even know who to negotiate with. They keep on dying so quickly." And that was just the sign. The polyp era on the Soviet premiers was a sign of how old and decrepit that system was.

Those people were all younger than the Democratic leadership, except for Hakeem Jeffries, younger than Pelosi, younger than Schumer, younger than Biden. I mean, granted, they smoked a carton a day and drank a couple bottles of vodka. They lived a little harsher. But still, this is a sign of just

the white knuckle gripping to power. And I think one of the causes for it, one of the reasons that people like Schumer are gripping to power is because they're so afraid of the new youth that are coming up. You look at Schumer, he's a New York Democrat, he's Israeli friendly, Jewish Senator. He looks at the college students, he looks at the base, he says, "These guys are dressed as terrorists. They're completely insane. They want Medicaid for all."

They feel like they're trying to hold on, but they don't have the strength to actually turn that ship around at all. It's the same thing. It's always the same thing. They pretend they like the kids. They bring them into the organization. They empower them. They call them, you're an associate at Starbucks now. And then the second that they assert themselves, the whole organization collapses. They're like, but...

I don't want to wear the uniform to work. I want to wear purple hair and septum rings. And they're like, no, you're not doing that. The whole organization collapses. David Hogg comes into the DNC for five minutes. I believe that children are our future. Teach them well. Let them lead the way. David Hogg walks in. He's like, I've got some big ideas. There's like, no, shut up, you twerp. We don't want you here. So they get rid of the whole thing. This is the civil war that I relish. I love this. And that party can't collapse soon enough, but somehow.

Like a cockroach. It just keeps moving. I don't understand it. Hey, Chris Bedford, man, you're the best. Thank you. Always appreciate you and your great work over at the blazer. Thank you, Vince. We'll see you later. Good to talk to you. The great Chris Bedford. Can't recommend him enough. He's he's great. Longtime bartender, longtime journalist, great American Chris Bedford. Okay. Let me let me show you something else that's going on here. This is crazy. Jasmine Crockett.

uh is uh is out i was just telling you about this jasmine crockett says that the majority of the country cut six the majority of the country that voted for president trump of course

The only way that happened is because they're all mentally ill. That's right. Most voters, says Jasmine Crockett, who is famously mentally ill. Most voters, she projects, are mentally ill. Take a look at Jazz. The idea that we don't care how many people get hurt. We don't care how we prostitute our service members.

you know, thinking that you have your own special little army that's for you. I mean, it is just, it is sick. It is really sick. And anybody that supports it is also sick. And so, you know, we've got a mental health crisis in this country because everyone, no matter how you affiliate yourself, should be against Trump, period. This is not partisan for me. Like, I would give anything to have...

It's sad to say George Bush like I like give me any regular Republican nowadays. George Bush. And I would be happy. But.

Any regular Republican, she said, we got a mental health crisis in the country. There's just no way you could support Trump unless you were mentally ill, says the mentally ill Congresswoman. Isn't that wonderful? So they've gone from deplorable to garbage to you're all mentally ill for supporting President Trump. Where are the normal Republicans like George W. Bush? Are you a psychopath? I think the answer to that is, of course, yes. George W. Bush, that's what you're for? The Iraq war guy? That's what you're into?

Holy cow. Caroline Leavitt was asked about this insanity yesterday at the White House by our good friend Mary Margaret Olihan over at The Daily Wire. And Caroline Leavitt, to her great credit, because she's got the capability to do this, she defended Trump voters from this type of defamatory nonsense. Take a look. Cut seven. Caroline Leavitt at the White House yesterday.

to respond to that, especially considering she's a rising star in the Democrat Party right now? She is a rising star. It's quite something to behold, actually. I hope that she continues to be a rising star for the Republican Party, at least. I think it's incredibly derogatory to accuse Republicans

nearly 80 million Americans of mental illness. The last time I checked, Jasmine Crockett couldn't dream of winning such a majority of the public as President Trump did. And the America First movement, which President Trump has built, is filled of hardworking patriots, the forgotten men and women, business owners, law enforcement officers,

nurses and teachers and middle America, as we all know, you know, from where you all grew up outside of this beltway. That's who makes up this president's movement. And Jasmine Crockett should go to a Trump rally sometime and she can see it for herself. Yeah. And yeah, she should actually, she should go to a Trump rally. She said this week that she feels like she's constantly under threat, that everyone's trying to attack her. She's, she's crazy. She's truly crazy.

Good for Caroline Leavitt for taking the high road, though. I mean, she obviously made fun of Jasmine Crockett. Yeah, good. You keep doing that because you're driving more people into our corner, which is good. But at the same time, I like that she stood up for Trump voters. She said this is the forgotten man and woman. These are patriots, hardworking people all across the country who she's slandering as mentally ill simply for voting for the other guy. That's that's how far the left has stooped. And also, it's another indication that the left is not going to try to convince you.

The left is not gonna try and make a better argument. They're not. They're not gonna try and offer you policy prescriptions to convince you that they're on your side and they're gonna somehow improve the lives of you or your family. Instead, they're gonna try and condemn you for your decision to support Trump. And they'll continue if they get power again to wield it in a tyrannical way, to send SWAT teams to the homes of Trump supporters, to Christians, to Catholics, to put you in leg irons, you know?

and then put it on CNN to try and accentuate the shame of having been arrested by the federal government. That's the goal, to destroy your life, your relationships, to bankrupt you. And when it comes to conversations, they're not interested. They just want to censor. That's it. Censorship, baby. Let's shut down these conversations.

um in fact you know i i'll spare you the clip but president obama was out this week saying the very that very thing he was talking about how we have to have systems in place to handle all of this misinformation he claimed and disinformation what he means of course is countervailing facts that demonstrate the failure of the left and so that's why this experience the one that you and i get to have each day is super valuable thank you dragon lady one saying i love your shows vince thank you you know dragon lady look

This is why this is valuable. Independent media, Rumble, podcasts, these conversations where we can air all of this out without the filters, without the censors, without the left getting in our way, without people with Jasmine Crockett's judgment hanging over us and deciding whether or not you get to hear these things.

That's how you get a healthy country. A healthy country is where you have robust debate, including about big picture items like, are we going to war in Iran? What's this going to look like? What happens next? Adult, reasonable, sober conversations. That's all I want.

and that's why i'm so grateful that we get to do this every day you are really the best damn audience in media i can't thank you enough um if you guys like the show and i hope you do and i know you're here for that um then would you please share it let other people know what we're up to i appreciate that i want to make sure that make this as big as humanly possible

And I'm constantly rooting you on, praying for you every day. Love this audience. And again, just grateful to you. Thank you very much. I'll be back Monday with another edition of Vince. And of course, the radio show I've got later today, 12 to 3 Eastern time. You can hear it nationwide, rumble.com slash Vince, or go to thevinceshow.com and click where to listen if you want to look for your local radio station. We'll definitely do that. Thank you, as always.
