Speaker 1 (00:08):
There is four o'clock market is closing on the corner
of Broaden Wall in New York City.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Four o'clock. All right, let's go over the numbers.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Got some good news across the board. Dow forty nine
to five, just getting so close to fifty thousand, never
been there before, all time high. Right below it in
the SMP, it'll be highest settlement ever. Sixty nine seventy
eight ballpark it almost hit seven thousand.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Sixty nine. Eighty five or eighty six was a high.
Nasdack up as well. Gold.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
What I say every day every day we come in here.
If it goes down, it goes down five ten. It's
up one hundred and eleven dollars an ounce. One ounce
up one hundred and eleven dollars today to an a
percent one day oil up a couple of cents. Nothing crazy,
crypto market. I think what's happening is all the focus
is on gold and silver. Silver at one pointments up
six seven dollars announced say so, I think all the
(00:56):
emphasis is on gold and silver right now. This is
all speculative orging kind of assets, and they can't figure
out the right place to put it right now.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
It's been gold.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
When that slows down, it turns down. Watch all that
money flow out of the metals right into crypto. The
way they work, it's what they been doing this my
whole life.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
As you know, our Border correspondent Oscar el Blue Ramirez
is being watched by the Cartel for his clear, no
nonsense reporting right here on RAV. Well, we have since
started rav Espanol, where we connect with our Spanish speaking audience.
One of our rav Espanol hosts also has had the
Cartel after him for more than fourteen years. He now
lives in the United States, but that didn't stop the
(02:40):
cartel from showing up at his old home where in
Venezuela and interrogating the people that live there. Now here
to give us the latest on the Kartel scare and
their tactics is REV Border Correspondent Oscar Ramirez and rav
Espanol host Raymond Azar Tonight, Raymond, thank you, gentlemen, thank
you for being here.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
They start with you, sir, So you were in Venezuelan,
lived in Venezuelan for fourteen years.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Tell us you know what sparked you leaving Venezuela and
I really want to get into this cartel, you know,
knocking looking for you after you'd already left.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Go ahead, Okay, Well, I was born in Caracas, but
my purity for if you want to tell her that.
On that way, I was living in Margarita Island beautiful.
But then when I grow up, I studied there and
all that stuff. I started to do a lot of
(03:33):
things as a journalist, and I started investigations against some
people of the government. In that moment when I was
like in twenty years, it was the nimer.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Begin for me.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Okay, So that was the main reason when I have
to leave Venezuela and came to the United States. But
when I was I started my life here. I keep
going as a journalist, doing all my diligence against Maluros
(04:08):
regime and Challeng's regim. Literally both are the same. They
are a drug cartel. They come after a lot of people.
Right now, everybody knows what is going on there, what
the President Trump do? Who who is very good for
all the Venezuela even but for all the Latin American
(04:31):
and the whole hemifair, Because uh, the problem with Venezuela
right now, we have in Venezuela. Not just the cartel.
We have Hezbola, we have Hamas, we have all that
terrorist groups in in the on on the backyard of
the United States. So finally there's a president here who
(04:51):
do the right thing to save the own people of
the United States and even the whole world. When on Saturday, Eric,
I just receive a call for the people who are
who are living right now in my old house. Well,
the intelligence group of Venezuela, of the Malua regime went
(05:14):
to that house, take that old lady and he and
her husband. I'm talking about people almost eighty years Okay.
They take them for hours, asking me if we are related,
we have some relationship, if it was just a commercial relationship.
They asking even for my back bank account number to
(05:38):
see exactly which what is my address here in the
United States. So if you say something against the Maluo
regime and you are out of Venezuela, doesn't care. They
already killed two people outside of Venezuela, one in Chile
and the other one in Spain, and nobody says anything.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Yeah, he then we bring Oscar and Oscar. This sounds familiar,
doesn't it. When you're when you're home, you had your
Mexican cartels knocking on your neighborhood door, on your on
your gate. Also when you're on the border with Colombia,
you had a motorcycle. Uh, I guess Venezuela and cartel
members and they warned you don't step foot back into Venezuela.
(06:20):
You stay on the Colombian side of the border. Do
you feel the same way, Well.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
It's exactly the same way. You know, it's a copy
paste without the organized prama the cartel opera is, but
it's specifically talking about the Regimo Maduro. This is what
they have been doing for you know, for years, they
have been oppressing the population.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
You know, disappearing journalists, torturing the journalists in a prison
that is called koy Uh. They persecuted, and they go
after the people that they're fighting them. And you know,
Real America's Boys News has been hitting the nerve of
specifically this regime. And it is something fishy that all
of a sudden, when they are seeing the program. Uh
and and and you know Raymond being the host of it,
(06:56):
of his own show and Ravenes Fanol, all of a
sudden they went to his address and Brgharita and started
asking questions and oppressing these you know, these elderly people,
they're eighty plus years old. Eric, you got to be
kidding me asking them question where he is at, you know,
his bank accounts, all of these situations. This is the
way the Maduda regime operates, and this is the reason
why Donald Trump cannot stop from cleaning Venezuela. You still
(07:18):
have a lot of bad people that they're running that regime,
and there's still a lot of work to do.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
So, Reymond, is this true?
Speaker 1 (07:23):
Is the obviously the Maduro's in jail in New York somewhere,
but is the regime. Is the infrastructure still in place
that supports Maduro or are they finally realizing this is
a little the future of Venezuela.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Well, Maduda was.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
I think that the soft piece on the on that group.
You know, they have Joselo who is literally the more
dangerous because he is the one who has the guns
on the streets in a place who we don't have
a Second Amendment, by the way, so he has people
civilians with guns trying to get into the other civilians.
(08:05):
If you say something about what happened last week, Eric,
you are okay with that? For example, they are coming
for you, They are coming for your family. Now they
are saying to the United States, well, we are releasing
like one hundred political prisoners, but they are releasing one hundred,
but they are get arrested like a two hundred. So
(08:29):
the situation in Venezuela exactly the same right now is
I think it's more dangerous. Like I said, they are
coming for me and I have more than fourteen years
away from Venezuela.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Are you concerned? Are you worried about them coming for
you here in the United States?
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Well, they already do that with a guy who tried
to get a rebellion against them. He was in Chile
in his home and they came after him at night.
Everything is on video, by the way they take him,
and they they find the police in Chile find him
(09:06):
like a week later. I'm dead. So they can do
a lot of things out of Venezuela. There's a lawyer
here who the name is John de la Vega, and
he asked to the state department to do an investigation
against one of the sons one of the Chavismo governors.
(09:27):
He was right here in the States playing on the
soccer team from Venezuela and the next day here in Miami,
Eric he finds a huge letter outside in his car
saying you are a committed a mistake. We are coming
for you in English like we are the force of
(09:47):
the chavismu so as who.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Should take over Venezuela when we finally when Trump finally says, okay,
you guys are said, now is it Machado?
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Is it? Is it? Who is it?
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Who's the right person, who has the respect to the
people that it's not gonna revert right back to corrupt
Cartel's plate.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
You know, government play thing.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
Well, Venezuelan people, they they have more you know of
the opinion of who can take over you know, was
the one that won the elections. The elections up been
stolen and not only this election, the past election also
was stolen from from the people of Venezuela. First and foremost,
Donald Trump needs to take control, needs to extract immediately
Lopez and needs to put del Si Rodriguez in her place.
(10:28):
This is another person.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Y let me jump into both you guys very quick,
only about two minutes ago, give me a minute each
on what would that seemed like You're the wrong person
to put in Rodrigue seemed like the absolute wrong person
to put it. But go ahead and ask you first,
and then Raymond.
Speaker 4 (10:45):
Well, Raymond can tell you this. You know, he lived
under this regime for so many years. But del Si
Rodriguez is not the one that it should be leading
in the population of Venezuela. As a matter of fact,
Venezuela's are upset that she is right now in power.
Let's see what happens. So let's see what changes. I
don't know who it is a right person to be
in power, but the thing is that the Trump administration
needs to go in there and extract these individuals immediately
(11:05):
so they can give the peace to the Manazula people.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
DL see Rodriguez, Raymond, any chance she comes around and
sees sees God. So to speaker sees Trump and gets
yourself uninterrupted.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
I understand the position of the President Trump because Maria,
my child, doesn't have the the respect of the militaries,
not all of the people. The problem is right now
with the is the with the groups with guns, you know,
So that's the main problem. I think he do very
dangerous but a smart move. So we have to wait,
(11:41):
we have to be patient, We have to we already
wait twenty six years, so we need to see.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
What's and what's going to, what's going.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
On right now, and then we I know, with the
President Trump, we can finally we can get the free
elect sous venezuela.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
There you go. We're gonna leave it right there. Thank
you both.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
By the way, both of you guys, please please be careful.
Thank you to Rav Border correspondent oscar L Blue Ramirez

Speaker 2 (12:13):

Speaker 1 (12:14):
Thank you, folks. Thank you, k stay safe, guys. All right,
let me give you some numbers, because numbers don't lie.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
People lie. Numbers don't lie.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
The Edge launched just over three months ago, no network affiliation,
no algorithm help, no corporate push, and already we've crussed
three hundred thousand views, more than fourteen thousand watch hours,
more than eighty five hundred subscribers who actually stay. That
doesn't happen in business. Most new channels die in silence
(12:42):
on YouTube, but this one didn't. Why Because the Edge
isn't built for the algorithm. It's built for the people
who live under pressure who thrive where others barely survive.
Former pro athletes, traders, founders, men who know what it
feels like when the clock is running and excuses are
running out. That's why I guess like Brett fa, Patrick, Bett,
David and top ESPN executives are showing up week after week.

Speaker 5 (13:35):
Back two and a half minutes.
Speaker 6 (13:48):
I'm sent my doctor's office. I was in a bad
state of depression. She said in that you're going to
have to lose weight. I started out in November at
one hundred and ninety four. My final check in wait
the other day was one hundred and thirty five point
over talk about pant size. I am constantly going out
(14:13):
and buying new pants.
Speaker 7 (14:14):
I feel great.
Speaker 6 (14:16):
It is so doable, it's so sustainable, it's so simple.
So yes, I am so grateful, so thankful.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
You know, we often hear about the physical effects of
obesit there are many many health related effects to OBC,
But what about the emotional toll. Here to give us
some insight is founder of Energize Health, John Jubilee. John,
how closely are obese really in depression? OBC and depression
they're pretty connected.
Speaker 8 (14:43):
Well, it really is, ye Eric, you'll be shocked by
this statistic. But of all of your viewers that are
watching right now, if they're in a major city, it's
one out of three anywhere in America, one out of
four people are on a mood altering medication for depression,
for anxiety, you know, or anything within that family. So
(15:06):
it it really is an epidemic. So just like we
have about seven out of ten people struggling with their weight,
you know, again, the numbers are you know, twenty five
to thirty five percent of people. That connection is undeniable.
You know, there absolutely is a physiological connection between anxiety,
depression and our health. And so that's why, you know,
(15:29):
we teach that true mind, body spirit connection. It's not
like a cool phrase, it really is science, Eric that
those are all connected.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
You know, John, I was invited to the to Robert F.
Kennedy's MAH Event summit last week, and I think it
was I think it was doctor Oz was talking about. No,
it was Ben Carson, Doctor Ben Carson saying that years
ago they were a doctor would see a juvenile diabetes
patient once in an entire career. Now it's like thirty
percent of their child The pediatric practice is Dibert beaties.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
How fat are we becoming as nation?
Speaker 7 (16:04):
Well?
Speaker 8 (16:05):
Yes, the young people. You know, this is probably the
most alarming thing is you know it's one thing as
an adult, right, but yeah, when you see childhood obesity
rates and what's happening there, Yeah, it's it's an epidemic.
We've never seen anything like it, you know, in history.
And a lot of that's because you know, the kids
are all you know, they're on their video games, they're
(16:26):
on their phones. You know, they're not getting out and playing,
you know like we did when I was growing up, Right,
like nobody ever heard of spending six hours a day
on your phone, or sitting in front of a computer,
you know, or playing all these games that they have now.
But all of these things. The good news is, Eric,
I want to give people some hope today, which is, look,
a problem is a problem, but there's always a solution.
(16:48):
There is a solution to every problem. So you know,
if your oil is low on your car, you go
get your oil fixed. If your muffler brakes, you go
get it fixed. There's a solution to the problem. And
the good news is for twenty nine years and energize health,
we are the solution. So whether you have depression, you
(17:08):
have anxiety, you have a health issue, or you just
want to lose unhealthy weight and get healthy from the
inside out, this really is a solution. And more importantly,
like you heard this lady's here. Look now, imagine Eric,
that's a woman that lost almost sixty pounds of fat
in just eighty eight days on our eighty eight day
(17:29):
protocol and got rid of her depression. So her focus
was let's get rid of the depression. But the side
effect was she lost sixty pounds of fat. But I
would encourage people that it's not enough, guys, to do
a New Year's resolution or to think about it. You
have to take an action step, and we make it
so simple. Just get on a free phone call. It's
a free phone call, so it'll take you about five
(17:51):
minutes to click in on the internet. Book your call,
get on with one of our coaches, and take your
action step. So your solution yours.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Yeah, I heard she lost three hundred pounds too, right
after the sixty five she got rid of that fat
husband of her. So just kidding, John, will see you
next time, John Juba Founder, energize.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
How appreciate your time, my friend.
Speaker 8 (18:12):
Thank you, brother.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Let's bring in our next guest, our own rab White
House correspondent who brings us the very latest on many things,
but now the economic disaster in Iran that led to
the widespread anti government protests. Always good to have Brian
Glenn back with us. We we'll start with I ran
tell us the latest from from DC and the White House.
Speaker 9 (18:30):
You know what's interesting, because things are really starting to escalate.
I noticed that reports that had Trump quoted to saying
that things are advancing towards the next stage. Now, could
we see a kinetic strike with US forces on Iran
in the next twenty four to forty eight hours. Some
people say that's highly likely. But when you pulled back
(18:50):
the onion, Eric on the reason why the people of
Iran are so angry and they are leading this revolution,
if you will, is because right now, I want people
to realize that if the price of food for them
has gone up seventy two percent just year over year,
their currency is basically valued almost at nothing. They have
(19:11):
absolutely no power, no internet, And of course, Eric, now
this is interesting if you look. I talked to an
Iranian expert here at the White House just hours ago,
and he was explaining this to me. The government themselves
shut down a lot of the power and infrastructure to
thinking that it's going to basically oppress the people and
discourage the uprising. Well, the opposite has actually happened, and
(19:35):
it's actually made it I think a little bit more
impactful for the people to do what they're doing now.
Now from what I understand, some Starlink systems have been
are being delivered to that area, so there is a
little bit of internet access, but certainly chaos that we've
seen the last three weeks, Eric, hundreds of people have died,
(19:56):
just really kind of It seems like every day we
wake up and there's more more news coming.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Out of our round.
Speaker 10 (20:01):
You know.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
They said that Elon sent Starlink, and then the reigning
government shut them down after a few days, and then
the last three days or so, we haven't been able
to see very much and there could we've heard reports
of five hundred people killed, up to ten thousand people killed. Brian, Yeah,
in Minneapolis, the ice situation where the lady ran over
the ice agent and he killed her.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
What's the what's the White House talking about with that? Now?
They just wanted to go away.
Speaker 9 (20:27):
It will tell us about it, well, they Caroline Levitt
did do a gaggle right behind me in the stakeout
area earlier, and she emphasized the fact that these protesters
are stepping into harm's way. And I think they have
been empowered for the most part by the media and
by themselves and by people financing their actions that they
(20:48):
can't do this. We've seen highways in California blocked and
around the country, So they feel empowered to get out
and get involved in something that a lot of them
are if they have no business doing what they're doing,
and the fact that they're ruining their lives. And unfortunately,
this woman made the wrong decision and try to stop
(21:08):
step out in front of a vehicle. But the White
House is definitely supporting the actions of Ice and supporting
the justification of the ICE officer firing on that on
that woman. And tragically we will say that, you know,
we lost the life there. But but Eric, these people
have to remember you, just just because you're passionate about
a subject, just because you want to whatever the subject is,
(21:31):
you cannot interfere with law enforcement.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
I would say I totally agree with you that this
whether or not she intended to hit him, she still
hit him. I let's remember she blocked the road. She
also sped off, and she did, and she was with
a severe agitator who was getting in her car with her. Yes,
unfortunate things happen like that. But it's the old theory
FA FO and she FA and FO.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
And unfortunately, yes she did. Yeah.
Speaker 9 (21:59):
And it interesting if you look at some of the
reaction from local law enforcement there, the mayor, the police chief,
they are even in Portland, and some of the events
escalating there. These local law enforcement, the local government needs
to realize that they have a problem. And when they
have a problem and President Trump sends in ice agents
(22:20):
or National Guard, they need to get the hell out
of the way and let them do their job and
make their area safe. Now, this is really interesting. This
incident in Minnesota just happened blocks away from the George
Floyd incident. And so over the last couple of weeks,
I met a gentleman that lived in that neighborhood and
was very active in the scene and in the political scene,
(22:42):
being that he was basically acting on behalf of all
these leftists, you know, activists for whatever cause. And he says, Brian,
this is what we like to do. This is something
that we don't run away from. So we were talking
on the cross of Network earlier. I think these get
big and as the temperatures warm up, Eric, I mean,
(23:02):
I'm really surprised I've had that many people gather in
the you know, incredible temperatures they have now, which we've
got light snow on certain instances. System as we warm
up and this and ice agents aren't going anywhere, I
think stories like Minneapolis could pop up around this country.
Speaker 10 (23:21):
Uh.
Speaker 9 (23:21):
And it seems like this is almost what they want, Eric,
They want some conflict. They want some drama behind it
if they feel like it helps their calls and trying
to get these ICE agents out of their community. But
in fact, I think most Americans can agree they like
getting criminals out of their neighbor.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
I'm just blown away that, you know, it seems to
be all these agitators, all these people are getting themselves
in trouble, are usually white liberals. I mean it just well,
you stay home, guys, you know this is it's not
your fight. It's not your fight anyway. Yeah, very quickly, Yeah, I.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Add somebody real quickly.
Speaker 9 (23:54):
I have somebody send me a Craigslis post recently and
I'll put up on myself media asking for people to
protest Trump. It paid fifteen hundred dollars a week. So
if fem our viewers are interested.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
In member in minneapitis, of course, no, no, what what
what the kid the exposed surely yeah, nix s Shirley.
He found evidence of people asking for child actors to
act as actors so that when the cameras showed up,
it would look like these daycare childcare centers were full.
(24:27):
It's fifteen fifteen hundred dollars per day per child. It's
insane the money that they have coming in that way.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
B I gotta go. I love your brother. Good to
see you again, and we'll talk to you very soon.
See you, Thank you, Thanks Eric, Brian Glenn right, we'll
be back two and a half minutes. Okay.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
This Minnesota fraud scandal really is Elon Omar's moment to
shine everything about this woman reeks anti America. But in
till this very moment, Omar has been mostly race baiting
and Trump hating. I think the growing fraud scandal has
given us some glimpse to an entirely new side of
Elon Omar, the corruptionist and criminal defender side. Who knew
(25:12):
that the brother loving Omar's hatred of this country and
everything it stands for was just so multifaceted.
Speaker 11 (25:19):
I'm so exhausted in trying to ask what any of
this information has led to you finding any criminals that
you have indicted. That explains why you are wasting so
much of our taxpayer resources and also terrorizing our communities
(25:41):
In the amount of federal law enforcement agents that you
have in the streets of our city and our state.
There needs to be some sort of justifications.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Funny elon Omar.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Trump doesn't send National Guard or ice into places that
don't need it. He sends him in where there's a problem, DC, Chicago, Minneapolis.
Clean your city up and you don't have to deal
with them.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
But you can't, can you? And you won't. Right.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Of course, it's no surprise that elon omer also made
the Sunday Show rounds and tell lies about what really
happened in Minneapolis, according to her, even though there are
several videos out now that prove otherwise. But of course
elon Omar is all about that one Democrat mantra of
what you saw, folks, you didn't really see.
Speaker 12 (26:26):
It was blocking the road.
Speaker 13 (26:27):
They are claiming this is an act of terrorism.
Speaker 14 (26:30):
Yeah, Renee Nicole Good as you hear her say, she's
not mad. She's sitting in her car, peacefully waving cars
to get by. This agent, as you see, gets out
of his car automatically starts running towards her, trying to
open her door. She feels scared. She tries to turn
(26:51):
the wheel away, and then you see the other officer,
who can clearly see the car is moving, move towards
the front of the car, which if they are saying
that he has ten years on service and is trained.
He should know that you shouldn't be trying to get
in front of a moving car.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
That's an outright lie.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Of course, the ice agent got in front of a
moving car, you lunatic. Did you even watch the videos
from twelve different angles? The agents ordered her to get
out of the vehicle. The car was stopped the driver's wife.
The woman then screamed, drive, baby, drive, at which point
she accelerated. Maybe she should just watch this again for
(27:33):
the sake of elan Omar.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
That's why I'm not That's okay.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
We don't change our plates every morning, just so you know,
we don't be the same plate when you come talk
to us later.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
That's fine.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
You have citizen for.
Speaker 6 (28:04):
You want to come at us.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
You want to come at us, I say, go get
yourself some lunch, big boy.
Speaker 4 (28:09):
No, go ahead, now the car.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Let it out of the car.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
And there you have it, elean Omar running cover for criminals.
By the way, my daddy once told me he was
by ten years old. He said, if a cop ever
stops you, just do what he has to say. Get
out of the car. Get out of the freaking car.
If he says lay down, lay the hell down. If
he says, put your hands behind your back, put your
damn hands behind the back, you'll save yourself a lot
of heartache later. He was right, and maybe this lady
and her wife should have taken that advice.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
Adam Shifty Shift.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
He had another liar and constant perpetrator of the what
you saw you didn't actually see, Democrat Mantra more than
most of them. He just can't help himself, and he
makes sure he can pile onto the absolute lie that
Renee Good, who's an established anti ice soldier by the way,
trained soldier anti ice with some sort of innocent bystander.
Speaker 8 (29:04):
This thirty seven year old woman drops her kid off
at school, not involved in proct protest to activity or anything.
Seems to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Not involved in protesting. She was one of the ice
watch groups that are trained trained.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
How to ice watch.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
And then, of course I'm not sure if they train
you to run over an ICE agent in front of them,
but she certainly, I don't know if she deserved it
or not, but she got what you would typically get
when you do that with law enforcement. It's pretty well
known fact. So stop messing around with law enforcement, folks,
you maybe stop dying as expected. Squad Member Ayana Presley
using the moment to call for completely, of course, defunding police.
(29:45):
Now let's go with abolishing ICE.
Speaker 15 (29:47):
What they want is for us to go quietly into
the night to believe that their dark, violent, dystopian view
of this country is an inevitability. And I'm so grateful
for everyday citizens that continue to join with Democrats in
vigorous condemnation of these actions. And I will continue to
demand an independent and thorough investigation, continue to call on
(30:10):
Congress in this moment to use appropriations and the power
of the purse to rain in ICE again. I believe
it should be abolished.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Be a dumb question for your congressman.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
The murder rate has been dropping since we've been deporting
illegals in closing the border dropping document. In fact, talk
to the administration FBI numbers. Let me guess you don't
believe those either, got it, But murder rates are going
down in the United States, even in Democrat health cities
going down. You think it has anything to do with
making these criminals go back to where they came from.
(30:41):
I don't know, As you constituents you want higher murder
rates or lower murder rates in your cities, ask them
and then tell them to vote for the way you
want it. Here's a very telling moment a snowflake ICE
protester was giving a reporter a hard time, that is
until she found out which outlet she was with. Kind
of tells you everything you need to know about these protests.
Speaker 16 (31:02):
Growing smaller crowd, this is controlled. The scene spanned several blocks.
We are here at Portland Avenue and East thirty fifth,
but it goes at least two or three blas. Thank you,
hold on, I'm sorry, we're we're with sann It's okay,
thank you, thank you for your help. I'm sorry. I
think people are getting upset. So that that is the
(31:23):
latest here on the ground, guys, and I'm going to send.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Them back to you who know you are for? What
do you oh? Seeing it?
Speaker 7 (31:29):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (31:30):
By all means protesters paid paid propagandas well. If you're
lifted leftist propaganda network CNN, I guess it's fine.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
I guess you're going to be okay.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
In New York City, Mayor Zori and Mam Donnie now
finds himself in a position often created by socialists to
actually deliver on promises he kept, promises he made to
get the votes he's got to deliver. Right now, free
buses for all sounds good until Mom Donnie's proposal for
making it happen is to take money away from the
company companies that actually employ people.
Speaker 17 (32:03):
And the other one you've been talking about fast and
free buses and your meeting with the governor. I've heard
you talk about many times that you don't want to
take money away from the MTA. You want to put
money back in. It's something that she agrees with, right,
we don't want to takeway money from the MTA. How
are you getting that money the seven hundred millions to
make the buses free into the MCA. If she's not
for raising taxes.
Speaker 12 (32:21):
You know, I think that the two clearest ways to
raise that money is through the raising of the state's
corporate tax to match she's in New Jersey. I think
that a lot of this is still a case to
be made, whether it's the corporate tax or that it's
the personal income tax on those who make more than
a million dollars a year or more. I think that
these are the clearest ways. I've also said that if
there are other ways to raise this funding. The most
important fact is that we fund it, not the question
(32:42):
of how we do it.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
But now we do it. So he's been in office,
what ten days or so? What happened over the weekend? Yep?
Speaker 1 (32:47):
The New York City nurses they went on strike because
they want a piece of that pie too.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
Everyone's going to want their handout from mayor. Mom.
Speaker 1 (32:54):
Donnie, good luck with that, my friend, you have no
money left. We'll be back two and a half minutes.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
All right.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
Tonight, folks were talking about something that sounds kind of
technical but actually hits right at the heart of rural America,
the Clarity Act. President Trump made a bold, smart move
when he brought cryptocurrencies into the US financial system instead
of letting run offshore. He kept America competitive, he kept
innovation here. But that reform left the loophole. Crypto platforms
(33:35):
pay what they call rewards instead of interest, and under
current law, those rewards don't follow the same rules as
bank deposits that allow money to quietly flow out of
community banks into unprotected digital platforms. Big banks can absorb
that small rural community banks simply can't. The Clarity Act
simply closes that gap, protecting local deposits without killing innovation
(33:57):
Iuman Now Jen Pellegrino and CEO of Defending Forgotten America.
Speaker 2 (34:02):
So Jen, why does this matter so much for small
town America?
Speaker 13 (34:07):
Well, thanks so much for having me.
Speaker 7 (34:08):
Eric.
Speaker 13 (34:09):
You know, what we do here at if en Forgotten
America is just that we look to the small rural
urban community, small urban communities, rural communities in America the
issues that matter most to them and bring those issues
to Washington. And this issue with stable coin and some
of the money that's going into it, the rewards that
are being paid, is really going to impact in a
negative way a lot of the small towns in America
(34:31):
you know that have you know, just one community bank,
one gas station, one hospital. If you lose one of those,
you lose that community. And so we're here to push
Congress to take action today and close this really urgent loophole.
Speaker 2 (34:44):
Can explain to the folks what the loophole is.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
So the way I understand it, and the only reason
why I even know about it is because I have
a Robinhood account, which yeah I have some stocks in there,
but I generally use that for bitcoin and ethereum. But
they'll offer me what they call some sort of reward.
It's essentially the same thing, isn't it.
Speaker 13 (35:03):
So, President Trump, I'll tell you this. Last year they
passed the Genius Act into law. That was something that
really protected a lot of Americans, protected small towns by saying, listen,
we don't want stable coin paying interest on these accounts. Well,
what happened is these organizations, these Silicon Valley institutions, found
a loophole. But by paying this interest but instead calling
(35:24):
it quote rewards, it's the exact same thing, Eric, So
they're paying this interest out it's an incentive for people.
And what happens then is their money goes out of
these local community banks, the community banks being the ones
that are there to provide you alone. If you're looking
to buy a home, if you're a farmer looking to
buy equipment, if your mom and top pop looking to
set up shop a cafe in your hometown, you're then
(35:46):
not able to do that because all the money is
being drained out of these accounts in the community banks
going into stable coin because of this attractive reward system
that they're setting up. That the intent of the Genius
Act was not to allow it, but again, it all
goes back to that loophole that they're calling a reward
and so therefore you're seeing these these local banks at
risk because of it.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
So didn't they think of that?
Speaker 1 (36:07):
I mean, Congress, didn't they think of this when they
put up the Genius Act, that oh, hey, maybe.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
We better like close any sort of loopholes. I mean,
how do they miss that? You think?
Speaker 13 (36:18):
You know listens, as you and I both know very well, Eric,
DC moves, especially under President Trump's leadership, at a really
fast pace. You know, I think they they pushed to
account for that, but it was something that you know,
was unforseeable. I'm sure there will be more issues like
this that will come up in the future, and that's
the reason organizations like Defend Forgotten America exist. We understand
(36:38):
that this president wants to get a lot done, but
sometimes there are little things that are overlooked, and you
hear small town America saying, hey, don't forget about us.
And so we're here to say, listen, Congress, you're you're
looking at the Clarity Act right now, close this loophole
as part of that, because beyond, you know, just this
this issue with stable coin, there are other issues being
(36:58):
considered that just weren't accounted or in the Genius Act,
which President Trump rightly put through very quickly. He wants
to make America the leader in cryptocurrency, and I believe
he'll do that. But this is certainly an issue that
needs to be addressed because we can both be that
and also have small town America thriving and keep those
banks open, keep them lending to small businesses, and keep
(37:19):
Main Street even better than it was a decade ago.
Speaker 2 (37:22):
Yeah. I don't even know this.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
So if my account at Robinhood falls, if Robinhood just
saw you there was whatever fraud going on, I'm pretty
sure they're not FDIC insured.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
So there's a risk there isn't.
Speaker 13 (37:35):
There There's a huge risk, Eric, I mean you think
back to Sam Bankman Freed I believe his name was,
and all the people that lost money in that crypto scamp.
I mean there's a lot of risk there. With your
local bank, you have that FDIC backing, you know that
if something goes south, your money is still protected. In
this case, with these cryptocurrencies, you don't have that luxury.
Speaker 1 (37:57):
So I guess the risk is too small community banks
who go all right, all this money is flowing out
of my bank that leaves them with really nothing the
loan for as you point out, homes, Mama pop cafes
or other.
Speaker 13 (38:11):
Yeah, and you know, President Trump, eric is really the
president for forgotten America. It's something we fully believe here
and the promise he's made and the promises that he's delivered.
I've heard a number of Cabinet secretaries say the same
thing and numerous Oval Office meetings. That is certainly true.
And we want to make sure that these people are
not forgotten. That you know, first time home buyers can
(38:31):
get that loan because that community bank is there. I
think back to my hometown, Eric, I come from rural America,
upstate New York. One of the banks in that town,
local bank. A lot of kids I went to high
school with, Well now they're not kids anymore, but they
work there. Those are the relationship bankers that are working
with people in my hometown that have known them for years,
that take into account these personal situations that these big
(38:54):
banks aren't going to be there for you like your
small town bank is. So we want to support them
and ensure that they're continuing to thrive. And then also
the locals in town, can operate their businesses, build businesses,
can buy that first time home. That's what this is
all about. And it's really a loophole that needs to
be fixed. And it you know, goes hand in hand
with the Clarity Act to making us the leader in
(39:15):
crypto and also building our small town.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
How long When is the Clarity Act? When does it
come up for a vote?
Speaker 13 (39:20):
You know, I believe on Thursday. There's going to be
a Senate discussion this.
Speaker 1 (39:24):
Week, this week, this week, okay, And so they're going
to close this loophole. So it's the wallets they call them.
Crypto wallets can't offer rewards, which in effect, there are
just another way of saying interest. Really, you know, with
the whole small town, the community bank versus the big bank.
It reminds me of it's a wonderful life when George
(39:46):
is trying to keep the bank open and big Potter
comes in with a big bank and he takes all
the money. And it was fine until the markets started
to go down and things started to go south a
little bit, and they're all going to.
Speaker 2 (39:56):
George help us. He's like, I can't. Potter's got all
your money. Idiots. So this has got to happen fairly soon.
This is a big, big number.
Speaker 1 (40:04):
We're talking about tens or hundreds of billions of dollars billions.
Speaker 13 (40:08):
Yes, listen, we can't have this level of greed. Small
town America needs to prosper, to continue to prosper, President
Trump is looking out for them. But again this item
was overlooked. We call on Congress now get this into
the Clarity Act. Let's get this done so we can
watch America become the leader on cryptocurrency under this president
and also really benefit small town America and sure that
(40:30):
we're not closing down our banks and therefore watching more
businesses shutter. Because I've seen the impact on small town
America during the last administration, how much they struggled. We
can't have that continue to go downhill. And I believe
under this president and the leadership in Washington, they'll hopefully
be pushing for that.
Speaker 2 (40:46):
Well.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
I know that you used to be a White House correspondent.
Trump always called in your remember where you were. Oh,
so you find yourself a defending forgotten America. Founder of
that Just very quickly, what are you guys about now?
Speaker 13 (40:58):
We're about rural and smaller of an America. Eric focused
on keeping the hospitals open that have been closing, keeping
banks open. As you see with this issue focusing on energy.
The issues that matter to small town America are issues
that matter to us, and we want to bring that
conversation to Washington because, as we discuss here, it's really
a metaphor for what we do. So much gets lost
in translation. DC is often thinking about the big cities.
(41:21):
You hear it on all the news headlines, the major outlets.
They're talking about what's happening in urban America. But what
about small town America. President Trump went out there and
campaigned for them, speaks about them often. Now, this is
making sure that we're not missing loopholes, we're not missing
issues that may seem minor to Washington but are a
really big deal to our small towns and small urban communities.
Speaker 1 (41:41):
That's great work. Great where you guys do again. Jen
pellagreena founder and CEO of Defend Forgotten America.
Speaker 2 (41:47):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 7 (41:49):
Eric.
Speaker 1 (41:50):
Folks, there's quite a shift happening right now in media.
Most people don't even realize it. The smartest people aren't
looking for the loudest platforms anymore. They're looking for the
most serious rooms. That's why I built the Edge, exactly
why I built the Edge. Just a little over three months,
we've crossed three hundred thousand views, eighty five hundred subscribers,
fourteen thousand watch hours, with zero er algo revmic favors,

and no corporate machine behind us. Why Well, because when
you create something that respects intelligence, strength, accountability, transparency, the
right audience, they find you, and they're finding the edge.
On the edge, we talk about real power, real competition,
real consequences, not cable news theater, not social media dopamine.

We got a bunch of them that. Let's start with
a good one.
Speaker 3 (43:42):
Here is Democratic socialists are ruining their states.
Speaker 10 (43:46):
He eric, that governor Hocle and that Mondomi. They're a
piece of work. They're no better than the democratic socialist
idiots that are running Washington State, Colorado, Boston. There. You
could just compare them to the legal alien that burned
a woman on the subway from New York City. How
he stood there liter on fire, and then when she's burning,
(44:09):
he goes over to such standing her.
Speaker 2 (44:11):
Yeah, isn't amazing. It's not just those cities, it's almost
every Democrat run city.
Speaker 1 (44:15):
I mean, you think about Chicago and New York, Los Angeles,
San Francisco, goes Portland, Portland.
Speaker 2 (44:22):
I mean, we haven't heard Portland in a couple of years.
Speaker 1 (44:23):
With Portland, the same way you can be lawless, you
can be I don't know, burn the place down, create
an autonomous zone where the police aren't supposed to go
and no one says anything if you're If you're a
liberal leftist, and they are, they're ruining this great country.
Speaker 2 (44:36):
Minneapolis, New York City, and.
Speaker 1 (44:39):
DOMI socialist is running New York City, the greatest financial
center of the universe.
Speaker 2 (44:47):
Socialist. What's happening, Maio, What the hell's happening?
Speaker 18 (44:50):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (44:51):
It's got to be fixed.
Speaker 1 (44:54):
That football game is fixed. The Chicago game, wasn't it.
It's another Let's have another one.
Speaker 6 (44:59):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (45:00):
The Sorrow's Compound needs to be rated.
Speaker 2 (45:02):
Got it.
Speaker 7 (45:03):
My name's Mike from Arizona. My message is as follows.
It's time to do a raid on the Sorrows Compound
and prosecute all these people that are funding the violence
and riots. Not until this happens, it will just continue.
Thanks for being a great American. We love you. Take
(45:27):
care and be safe, my friend.
Speaker 2 (45:29):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (45:30):
Sir, I appreciating you too, Yes, sorous, I mean Trump
is hinted to like finding the source of the funding
for the agitators. Look, you know, peaceful protest is protecting
the constitution. Peaceful protests, but agitating people to the point
where they're trying to run down Ice officers, that's not
I really, really, honestly think that Jacob Fried, the mayor
of Minneapolis who dropped an F bomb saying, hey, Ice,
(45:53):
get the f out of Minneapolis and to what and
also walts with his rhetoric dommy calling the ICE agent
a murder. These people should be prosecution should be investigated.
Let's investigate if there's any sort of coordination. Certainly, if
there's coordination with these Soros types. You can support peaceful protests,
(46:14):
it's protected, but you can't promote rhetoric, heightened rhetoric that
causes people to gin themselves up to the point where
they're creating violence or creating the situations where violence could happen.
That woman blocked the road. Cops were telling her to leave,
Law enforcement was saying leave, and she stayed there until
it got worse and worse and worse, and then she
took off, hitting an agent. This is what Stay out
(46:36):
of the problem.
Speaker 2 (46:37):
Don't become the problem. Mad dog.
Speaker 7 (46:40):
This viewer believes that Ice shooting was justified.
Speaker 19 (46:44):
Hey, Eric, love your show. This is Jeff from Homer.
I got something to tell you about this shooting with
the Ice and the Ice officers.
Speaker 18 (46:53):
You know, most people are talking, well, they could have
shot the tires out, and they could have shot this,
and they could have shot that. That's a bunch of
below is what that is. You can shoot all four
tires out, they can still run you over. The only
way to stop that vehicle physically is to kill that
person behind the wheel, no matter who it is. And
they have seconds to figure it out. And I'm telling
(47:14):
you right now, there's no way you can shoot that
carriac full of holes if you don't get that driver
of that car is still coming after you. And that
is a plain old fact. It's called a misser and
it's going to move.
Speaker 19 (47:25):
And when I am so angry that all of these people,
and they's leftists, they're talking about it like they'd be
just playing killed it for no reason. He had his
life in his hand and he did what he had
to do. He's already had one thing they said where
he reached in a car and they drove off and
drug him or something. I didn't get the whole thing
(47:47):
and missed some of it, but I don't really know completely.
But still facts are the only way to stop that
car is to kill the driver in that situation that
I saw on TV. All right, Eric, love you guy,
Love all you guys on that channel.
Speaker 2 (48:02):
Take care, Thank you, sir. I agree with you.
Speaker 1 (48:04):
You know something we haven't really talked about. You're right,
if six and eight thousand pound vehicle coming at you,
you're not gonna be able to this close, this fast,
you're not gonna be able to shoot any tires out.
Speaker 2 (48:14):
For one.
Speaker 1 (48:14):
Number two, does anyone talk about maybe the ice agent
saved other people's lives, Like, okay, maybe she would have
gone on and hit more people down the road because
she was clearly out of control. Right if you want
to say she didn't mean to doesn't matter if she
meant to her not, she was, she was running over.
Speaker 2 (48:31):
An agent can't do that.
Speaker 1 (48:32):
He's got to stop you. He's gonna stop you with
whatever way he can. Shooting out a tire isn't gonna
stop you. The original video looked like he was out
of the way, and she turned. When you saw the
other overhead and the other officer's camera, the actual cell
phone from the officer, you realize that there was no
way he was getting out of that way.
Speaker 2 (48:50):
She was gonna hit him, and she did, and he
gets hit and he shoots her, maybe saving himself. I
don't know.
Speaker 1 (48:56):
Maybe he was safe at that point, but we don't know.
If there are more officers right down the road. I
think there were, if you remember back, I think there
were a bunch of officers down that road, and she
may have taken them out too. How do you know
that she wasn't going to I think what he did
all unfortunate, very unfortunate. Did the right thing, all right,
he did the right thing. I think he's going to
be protected by the law. What weird thing, there was
(49:18):
a GoFundMe page for Renee Good. It's up to a
million and a half dollars. I mean, she's the one
who started this, She's the reason all this happened. Fortunately,
Bill Ackman, a billionaire, put a million dollars in the
ice agent's account as well. So we're gonna see how
this point plays out. But this isn't over by any
means anytime.
Speaker 2 (49:35):
Soon, mad Dog. Great time. Thank you guys, Thank you guys.
Speaker 1 (49:37):
For joining us. Warham coming up next. Really really enjoyed
being back with you here on Monday. We'll see you
again tomorrow. Seevan and Warum on on the deck. I
don't know if it's if it's Steve or not, but
if it is, tell him. We got to do the
tosses again real soon. We had a lot to talk about.
There is four o'clock market is closing on the corner
of Broaden Wall in New York City.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Four o'clock. All right, let's go over the numbers.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Got some good news across the board. Dow forty nine
to five, just getting so close to fifty thousand, never
been there before, all time high. Right below it in
the SMP, it'll be highest settlement ever. Sixty nine seventy
eight ballpark it almost hit seven thousand.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Sixty nine. Eighty five or eighty six was a high.
Nasdack up as well. Gold.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
What I say every day every day we come in here.
If it goes down, it goes down five ten. It's
up one hundred and eleven dollars an ounce. One ounce
up one hundred and eleven dollars today to an a
percent one day oil up a couple of cents. Nothing crazy,
crypto market. I think what's happening is all the focus
is on gold and silver. Silver at one pointments up
six seven dollars announced say so, I think all the
(00:56):
emphasis is on gold and silver right now. This is
all speculative orging kind of assets, and they can't figure
out the right place to put it right now.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
It's been gold.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
When that slows down, it turns down. Watch all that
money flow out of the metals right into crypto. The
way they work, it's what they been doing this my
whole life.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
I know all about this.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
So there is your market pretty good across the board, folks.

As you know, our Border correspondent Oscar el Blue Ramirez
is being watched by the Cartel for his clear, no
nonsense reporting right here on RAV. Well, we have since
started rav Espanol, where we connect with our Spanish speaking audience.
One of our rav Espanol hosts also has had the
Cartel after him for more than fourteen years. He now
lives in the United States, but that didn't stop the
(02:40):
cartel from showing up at his old home where in
Venezuela and interrogating the people that live there. Now here
to give us the latest on the Kartel scare and
their tactics is REV Border Correspondent Oscar Ramirez and rav
Espanol host Raymond Azar Tonight, Raymond, thank you, gentlemen, thank
you for being here.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
They start with you, sir, So you were in Venezuelan,
lived in Venezuelan for fourteen years.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Tell us you know what sparked you leaving Venezuela and
I really want to get into this cartel, you know,
knocking looking for you after you'd already left.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Go ahead, Okay, Well, I was born in Caracas, but
my purity for if you want to tell her that.
On that way, I was living in Margarita Island beautiful.
But then when I grow up, I studied there and
all that stuff. I started to do a lot of
(03:33):
things as a journalist, and I started investigations against some
people of the government. In that moment when I was
like in twenty years, it was the nimer.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Begin for me.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Okay, So that was the main reason when I have
to leave Venezuela and came to the United States. But
when I was I started my life here. I keep
going as a journalist, doing all my diligence against Maluros
(04:08):
regime and Challeng's regim. Literally both are the same. They
are a drug cartel. They come after a lot of people.
Right now, everybody knows what is going on there, what
the President Trump do? Who who is very good for
all the Venezuela even but for all the Latin American
(04:31):
and the whole hemifair, Because uh, the problem with Venezuela
right now, we have in Venezuela. Not just the cartel.
We have Hezbola, we have Hamas, we have all that
terrorist groups in in the on on the backyard of
the United States. So finally there's a president here who
(04:51):
do the right thing to save the own people of
the United States and even the whole world. When on Saturday, Eric,
I just receive a call for the people who are
who are living right now in my old house. Well,
the intelligence group of Venezuela, of the Malua regime went
(05:14):
to that house, take that old lady and he and
her husband. I'm talking about people almost eighty years Okay.
They take them for hours, asking me if we are related,
we have some relationship, if it was just a commercial relationship.
They asking even for my back bank account number to
(05:38):
see exactly which what is my address here in the
United States. So if you say something against the Maluo
regime and you are out of Venezuela, doesn't care. They
already killed two people outside of Venezuela, one in Chile
and the other one in Spain, and nobody says anything.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Yeah, he then we bring Oscar and Oscar. This sounds familiar,
doesn't it. When you're when you're home, you had your
Mexican cartels knocking on your neighborhood door, on your on
your gate. Also when you're on the border with Colombia,
you had a motorcycle. Uh, I guess Venezuela and cartel
members and they warned you don't step foot back into Venezuela.
(06:20):
You stay on the Colombian side of the border. Do
you feel the same way, Well.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
It's exactly the same way. You know, it's a copy
paste without the organized prama the cartel opera is, but
it's specifically talking about the Regimo Maduro. This is what
they have been doing for you know, for years, they
have been oppressing the population.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
You know, disappearing journalists, torturing the journalists in a prison
that is called koy Uh. They persecuted, and they go
after the people that they're fighting them. And you know,
Real America's Boys News has been hitting the nerve of
specifically this regime. And it is something fishy that all
of a sudden, when they are seeing the program. Uh
and and and you know Raymond being the host of it,
(06:56):
of his own show and Ravenes Fanol, all of a
sudden they went to his address and Brgharita and started
asking questions and oppressing these you know, these elderly people,
they're eighty plus years old. Eric, you got to be
kidding me asking them question where he is at, you know,
his bank accounts, all of these situations. This is the
way the Maduda regime operates, and this is the reason
why Donald Trump cannot stop from cleaning Venezuela. You still
(07:18):
have a lot of bad people that they're running that regime,
and there's still a lot of work to do.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
So, Reymond, is this true?
Speaker 1 (07:23):
Is the obviously the Maduro's in jail in New York somewhere,
but is the regime. Is the infrastructure still in place
that supports Maduro or are they finally realizing this is
a little the future of Venezuela.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Well, Maduda was.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
I think that the soft piece on the on that group.
You know, they have Joselo who is literally the more
dangerous because he is the one who has the guns
on the streets in a place who we don't have
a Second Amendment, by the way, so he has people
civilians with guns trying to get into the other civilians.
(08:05):
If you say something about what happened last week, Eric,
you are okay with that? For example, they are coming
for you, They are coming for your family. Now they
are saying to the United States, well, we are releasing
like one hundred political prisoners, but they are releasing one hundred,
but they are get arrested like a two hundred. So
(08:29):
the situation in Venezuela exactly the same right now is
I think it's more dangerous. Like I said, they are
coming for me and I have more than fourteen years
away from Venezuela.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Are you concerned? Are you worried about them coming for
you here in the United States?
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Well, they already do that with a guy who tried
to get a rebellion against them. He was in Chile
in his home and they came after him at night.
Everything is on video, by the way they take him,
and they they find the police in Chile find him
(09:06):
like a week later. I'm dead. So they can do
a lot of things out of Venezuela. There's a lawyer
here who the name is John de la Vega, and
he asked to the state department to do an investigation
against one of the sons one of the Chavismo governors.
(09:27):
He was right here in the States playing on the
soccer team from Venezuela and the next day here in Miami,
Eric he finds a huge letter outside in his car
saying you are a committed a mistake. We are coming
for you in English like we are the force of
(09:47):
the chavismu so as who.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Should take over Venezuela when we finally when Trump finally says, okay,
you guys are said, now is it Machado?
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Is it? Is it? Who is it?
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Who's the right person, who has the respect to the
people that it's not gonna revert right back to corrupt
Cartel's plate.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
You know, government play thing.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
Well, Venezuelan people, they they have more you know of
the opinion of who can take over you know, was
the one that won the elections. The elections up been
stolen and not only this election, the past election also
was stolen from from the people of Venezuela. First and foremost,
Donald Trump needs to take control, needs to extract immediately
Lopez and needs to put del Si Rodriguez in her place.
(10:28):
This is another person.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Y let me jump into both you guys very quick,
only about two minutes ago, give me a minute each
on what would that seemed like You're the wrong person
to put in Rodrigue seemed like the absolute wrong person
to put it. But go ahead and ask you first,
and then Raymond.
Speaker 4 (10:45):
Well, Raymond can tell you this. You know, he lived
under this regime for so many years. But del Si
Rodriguez is not the one that it should be leading
in the population of Venezuela. As a matter of fact,
Venezuela's are upset that she is right now in power.
Let's see what happens. So let's see what changes. I
don't know who it is a right person to be
in power, but the thing is that the Trump administration
needs to go in there and extract these individuals immediately
(11:05):
so they can give the peace to the Manazula people.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
DL see Rodriguez, Raymond, any chance she comes around and
sees sees God. So to speaker sees Trump and gets
yourself uninterrupted.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
I understand the position of the President Trump because Maria,
my child, doesn't have the the respect of the militaries,
not all of the people. The problem is right now
with the is the with the groups with guns, you know,
So that's the main problem. I think he do very
dangerous but a smart move. So we have to wait,
(11:41):
we have to be patient, We have to we already
wait twenty six years, so we need to see.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
What's and what's going to, what's going.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
On right now, and then we I know, with the
President Trump, we can finally we can get the free
elect sous venezuela.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
There you go. We're gonna leave it right there. Thank
you both.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
By the way, both of you guys, please please be careful.
Thank you to Rav Border correspondent oscar L Blue Ramirez

Speaker 1 (12:14):
Thank you, folks. Thank you, k stay safe, guys. All right,
let me give you some numbers, because numbers don't lie.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
People lie. Numbers don't lie.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
The Edge launched just over three months ago, no network affiliation,
no algorithm help, no corporate push, and already we've crussed
three hundred thousand views, more than fourteen thousand watch hours,
more than eighty five hundred subscribers who actually stay. That
doesn't happen in business. Most new channels die in silence
(12:42):
on YouTube, but this one didn't. Why Because the Edge
isn't built for the algorithm. It's built for the people
who live under pressure who thrive where others barely survive.
Former pro athletes, traders, founders, men who know what it
feels like when the clock is running and excuses are
running out. That's why I guess like Brett fa, Patrick, Bett,
David and top ESPN executives are showing up week after week.

Speaker 5 (13:35):
Back two and a half minutes.
Speaker 6 (13:48):
I'm sent my doctor's office. I was in a bad
state of depression. She said in that you're going to
have to lose weight. I started out in November at
one hundred and ninety four. My final check in wait
the other day was one hundred and thirty five point
over talk about pant size. I am constantly going out
(14:13):
and buying new pants.
Speaker 7 (14:14):
I feel great.
Speaker 6 (14:16):
It is so doable, it's so sustainable, it's so simple.
So yes, I am so grateful, so thankful.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
You know, we often hear about the physical effects of
obesit there are many many health related effects to OBC,
But what about the emotional toll. Here to give us
some insight is founder of Energize Health, John Jubilee. John,
how closely are obese really in depression? OBC and depression
they're pretty connected.
Speaker 8 (14:43):
Well, it really is, ye Eric, you'll be shocked by
this statistic. But of all of your viewers that are
watching right now, if they're in a major city, it's
one out of three anywhere in America, one out of
four people are on a mood altering medication for depression,
for anxiety, you know, or anything within that family. So
(15:06):
it it really is an epidemic. So just like we
have about seven out of ten people struggling with their weight,
you know, again, the numbers are you know, twenty five
to thirty five percent of people. That connection is undeniable.
You know, there absolutely is a physiological connection between anxiety,
depression and our health. And so that's why, you know,
(15:29):
we teach that true mind, body spirit connection. It's not
like a cool phrase, it really is science, Eric that
those are all connected.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
You know, John, I was invited to the to Robert F.
Kennedy's MAH Event summit last week, and I think it
was I think it was doctor Oz was talking about. No,
it was Ben Carson, Doctor Ben Carson saying that years
ago they were a doctor would see a juvenile diabetes
patient once in an entire career. Now it's like thirty
percent of their child The pediatric practice is Dibert beaties.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
How fat are we becoming as nation?
Speaker 7 (16:04):
Well?
Speaker 8 (16:05):
Yes, the young people. You know, this is probably the
most alarming thing is you know it's one thing as
an adult, right, but yeah, when you see childhood obesity
rates and what's happening there, Yeah, it's it's an epidemic.
We've never seen anything like it, you know, in history.
And a lot of that's because you know, the kids
are all you know, they're on their video games, they're
(16:26):
on their phones. You know, they're not getting out and playing,
you know like we did when I was growing up, Right,
like nobody ever heard of spending six hours a day
on your phone, or sitting in front of a computer,
you know, or playing all these games that they have now.
But all of these things. The good news is, Eric,
I want to give people some hope today, which is, look,
a problem is a problem, but there's always a solution.
(16:48):
There is a solution to every problem. So you know,
if your oil is low on your car, you go
get your oil fixed. If your muffler brakes, you go
get it fixed. There's a solution to the problem. And
the good news is for twenty nine years and energize health,
we are the solution. So whether you have depression, you
(17:08):
have anxiety, you have a health issue, or you just
want to lose unhealthy weight and get healthy from the
inside out, this really is a solution. And more importantly,
like you heard this lady's here. Look now, imagine Eric,
that's a woman that lost almost sixty pounds of fat
in just eighty eight days on our eighty eight day
(17:29):
protocol and got rid of her depression. So her focus
was let's get rid of the depression. But the side
effect was she lost sixty pounds of fat. But I
would encourage people that it's not enough, guys, to do
a New Year's resolution or to think about it. You
have to take an action step, and we make it
so simple. Just get on a free phone call. It's
a free phone call, so it'll take you about five
(17:51):
minutes to click in on the internet. Book your call,
get on with one of our coaches, and take your
action step. So your solution yours.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Yeah, I heard she lost three hundred pounds too, right
after the sixty five she got rid of that fat
husband of her. So just kidding, John, will see you
next time, John Juba Founder, energize.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
How appreciate your time, my friend.
Speaker 8 (18:12):
Thank you, brother.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Let's bring in our next guest, our own rab White
House correspondent who brings us the very latest on many things,
but now the economic disaster in Iran that led to
the widespread anti government protests. Always good to have Brian
Glenn back with us. We we'll start with I ran
tell us the latest from from DC and the White House.
Speaker 9 (18:30):
You know what's interesting, because things are really starting to escalate.
I noticed that reports that had Trump quoted to saying
that things are advancing towards the next stage. Now, could
we see a kinetic strike with US forces on Iran
in the next twenty four to forty eight hours. Some
people say that's highly likely. But when you pulled back
(18:50):
the onion, Eric on the reason why the people of
Iran are so angry and they are leading this revolution,
if you will, is because right now, I want people
to realize that if the price of food for them
has gone up seventy two percent just year over year,
their currency is basically valued almost at nothing. They have
(19:11):
absolutely no power, no internet, And of course, Eric, now
this is interesting if you look. I talked to an
Iranian expert here at the White House just hours ago,
and he was explaining this to me. The government themselves
shut down a lot of the power and infrastructure to
thinking that it's going to basically oppress the people and
discourage the uprising. Well, the opposite has actually happened, and
(19:35):
it's actually made it I think a little bit more
impactful for the people to do what they're doing now.
Now from what I understand, some Starlink systems have been
are being delivered to that area, so there is a
little bit of internet access, but certainly chaos that we've
seen the last three weeks, Eric, hundreds of people have died,
(19:56):
just really kind of It seems like every day we
wake up and there's more more news coming.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Out of our round.
Speaker 10 (20:01):
You know.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
They said that Elon sent Starlink, and then the reigning
government shut them down after a few days, and then
the last three days or so, we haven't been able
to see very much and there could we've heard reports
of five hundred people killed, up to ten thousand people killed. Brian, Yeah,
in Minneapolis, the ice situation where the lady ran over
the ice agent and he killed her.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
What's the what's the White House talking about with that? Now?
They just wanted to go away.
Speaker 9 (20:27):
It will tell us about it, well, they Caroline Levitt
did do a gaggle right behind me in the stakeout
area earlier, and she emphasized the fact that these protesters
are stepping into harm's way. And I think they have
been empowered for the most part by the media and
by themselves and by people financing their actions that they
(20:48):
can't do this. We've seen highways in California blocked and
around the country, So they feel empowered to get out
and get involved in something that a lot of them
are if they have no business doing what they're doing,
and the fact that they're ruining their lives. And unfortunately,
this woman made the wrong decision and try to stop
(21:08):
step out in front of a vehicle. But the White
House is definitely supporting the actions of Ice and supporting
the justification of the ICE officer firing on that on
that woman. And tragically we will say that, you know,
we lost the life there. But but Eric, these people
have to remember you, just just because you're passionate about
a subject, just because you want to whatever the subject is,
(21:31):
you cannot interfere with law enforcement.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
I would say I totally agree with you that this
whether or not she intended to hit him, she still
hit him. I let's remember she blocked the road. She
also sped off, and she did, and she was with
a severe agitator who was getting in her car with her. Yes,
unfortunate things happen like that. But it's the old theory
FA FO and she FA and FO.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
And unfortunately, yes she did. Yeah.
Speaker 9 (21:59):
And it interesting if you look at some of the
reaction from local law enforcement there, the mayor, the police chief,
they are even in Portland, and some of the events
escalating there. These local law enforcement, the local government needs
to realize that they have a problem. And when they
have a problem and President Trump sends in ice agents
(22:20):
or National Guard, they need to get the hell out
of the way and let them do their job and
make their area safe. Now, this is really interesting. This
incident in Minnesota just happened blocks away from the George
Floyd incident. And so over the last couple of weeks,
I met a gentleman that lived in that neighborhood and
was very active in the scene and in the political scene,
(22:42):
being that he was basically acting on behalf of all
these leftists, you know, activists for whatever cause. And he says, Brian,
this is what we like to do. This is something
that we don't run away from. So we were talking
on the cross of Network earlier. I think these get
big and as the temperatures warm up, Eric, I mean,
(23:02):
I'm really surprised I've had that many people gather in
the you know, incredible temperatures they have now, which we've
got light snow on certain instances. System as we warm
up and this and ice agents aren't going anywhere, I
think stories like Minneapolis could pop up around this country.
Speaker 10 (23:21):
Uh.
Speaker 9 (23:21):
And it seems like this is almost what they want, Eric,
They want some conflict. They want some drama behind it
if they feel like it helps their calls and trying
to get these ICE agents out of their community. But
in fact, I think most Americans can agree they like
getting criminals out of their neighbor.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
I'm just blown away that, you know, it seems to
be all these agitators, all these people are getting themselves
in trouble, are usually white liberals. I mean it just well,
you stay home, guys, you know this is it's not
your fight. It's not your fight anyway. Yeah, very quickly, Yeah, I.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Add somebody real quickly.
Speaker 9 (23:54):
I have somebody send me a Craigslis post recently and
I'll put up on myself media asking for people to
protest Trump. It paid fifteen hundred dollars a week. So
if fem our viewers are interested.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
In member in minneapitis, of course, no, no, what what
what the kid the exposed surely yeah, nix s Shirley.
He found evidence of people asking for child actors to
act as actors so that when the cameras showed up,
it would look like these daycare childcare centers were full.
(24:27):
It's fifteen fifteen hundred dollars per day per child. It's
insane the money that they have coming in that way.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
B I gotta go. I love your brother. Good to
see you again, and we'll talk to you very soon.
See you, Thank you, Thanks Eric, Brian Glenn right, we'll
be back two and a half minutes. Okay.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
This Minnesota fraud scandal really is Elon Omar's moment to
shine everything about this woman reeks anti America. But in
till this very moment, Omar has been mostly race baiting
and Trump hating. I think the growing fraud scandal has
given us some glimpse to an entirely new side of
Elon Omar, the corruptionist and criminal defender side. Who knew
(25:12):
that the brother loving Omar's hatred of this country and
everything it stands for was just so multifaceted.
Speaker 11 (25:19):
I'm so exhausted in trying to ask what any of
this information has led to you finding any criminals that
you have indicted. That explains why you are wasting so
much of our taxpayer resources and also terrorizing our communities
(25:41):
In the amount of federal law enforcement agents that you
have in the streets of our city and our state.
There needs to be some sort of justifications.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Funny elon Omar.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Trump doesn't send National Guard or ice into places that
don't need it. He sends him in where there's a problem, DC, Chicago, Minneapolis.
Clean your city up and you don't have to deal
with them.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
But you can't, can you? And you won't. Right.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Of course, it's no surprise that elon omer also made
the Sunday Show rounds and tell lies about what really
happened in Minneapolis, according to her, even though there are
several videos out now that prove otherwise. But of course
elon Omar is all about that one Democrat mantra of
what you saw, folks, you didn't really see.
Speaker 12 (26:26):
It was blocking the road.
Speaker 13 (26:27):
They are claiming this is an act of terrorism.
Speaker 14 (26:30):
Yeah, Renee Nicole Good as you hear her say, she's
not mad. She's sitting in her car, peacefully waving cars
to get by. This agent, as you see, gets out
of his car automatically starts running towards her, trying to
open her door. She feels scared. She tries to turn
(26:51):
the wheel away, and then you see the other officer,
who can clearly see the car is moving, move towards
the front of the car, which if they are saying
that he has ten years on service and is trained.
He should know that you shouldn't be trying to get
in front of a moving car.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
That's an outright lie.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Of course, the ice agent got in front of a
moving car, you lunatic. Did you even watch the videos
from twelve different angles? The agents ordered her to get
out of the vehicle. The car was stopped the driver's wife.
The woman then screamed, drive, baby, drive, at which point
she accelerated. Maybe she should just watch this again for
(27:33):
the sake of elan Omar.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
That's why I'm not That's okay.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
We don't change our plates every morning, just so you know,
we don't be the same plate when you come talk
to us later.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
That's fine.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
You have citizen for.
Speaker 6 (28:04):
You want to come at us.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
You want to come at us, I say, go get
yourself some lunch, big boy.
Speaker 4 (28:09):
No, go ahead, now the car.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Let it out of the car.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
And there you have it, elean Omar running cover for criminals.
By the way, my daddy once told me he was
by ten years old. He said, if a cop ever
stops you, just do what he has to say. Get
out of the car. Get out of the freaking car.
If he says lay down, lay the hell down. If
he says, put your hands behind your back, put your
damn hands behind the back, you'll save yourself a lot
of heartache later. He was right, and maybe this lady
and her wife should have taken that advice.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
Adam Shifty Shift.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
He had another liar and constant perpetrator of the what
you saw you didn't actually see, Democrat Mantra more than
most of them. He just can't help himself, and he
makes sure he can pile onto the absolute lie that
Renee Good, who's an established anti ice soldier by the way,
trained soldier anti ice with some sort of innocent bystander.
Speaker 8 (29:04):
This thirty seven year old woman drops her kid off
at school, not involved in proct protest to activity or anything.
Seems to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Not involved in protesting. She was one of the ice
watch groups that are trained trained.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
How to ice watch.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
And then, of course I'm not sure if they train
you to run over an ICE agent in front of them,
but she certainly, I don't know if she deserved it
or not, but she got what you would typically get
when you do that with law enforcement. It's pretty well
known fact. So stop messing around with law enforcement, folks,
you maybe stop dying as expected. Squad Member Ayana Presley
using the moment to call for completely, of course, defunding police.
(29:45):
Now let's go with abolishing ICE.
Speaker 15 (29:47):
What they want is for us to go quietly into
the night to believe that their dark, violent, dystopian view
of this country is an inevitability. And I'm so grateful
for everyday citizens that continue to join with Democrats in
vigorous condemnation of these actions. And I will continue to
demand an independent and thorough investigation, continue to call on
(30:10):
Congress in this moment to use appropriations and the power
of the purse to rain in ICE again. I believe
it should be abolished.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Be a dumb question for your congressman.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
The murder rate has been dropping since we've been deporting
illegals in closing the border dropping document. In fact, talk
to the administration FBI numbers. Let me guess you don't
believe those either, got it, But murder rates are going
down in the United States, even in Democrat health cities
going down. You think it has anything to do with
making these criminals go back to where they came from.
(30:41):
I don't know, As you constituents you want higher murder
rates or lower murder rates in your cities, ask them
and then tell them to vote for the way you
want it. Here's a very telling moment a snowflake ICE
protester was giving a reporter a hard time, that is
until she found out which outlet she was with. Kind
of tells you everything you need to know about these protests.
Speaker 16 (31:02):
Growing smaller crowd, this is controlled. The scene spanned several blocks.
We are here at Portland Avenue and East thirty fifth,
but it goes at least two or three blas. Thank you,
hold on, I'm sorry, we're we're with sann It's okay,
thank you, thank you for your help. I'm sorry. I
think people are getting upset. So that that is the
(31:23):
latest here on the ground, guys, and I'm going to send.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Them back to you who know you are for? What
do you oh? Seeing it?
Speaker 7 (31:29):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (31:30):
By all means protesters paid paid propagandas well. If you're
lifted leftist propaganda network CNN, I guess it's fine.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
I guess you're going to be okay.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
In New York City, Mayor Zori and Mam Donnie now
finds himself in a position often created by socialists to
actually deliver on promises he kept, promises he made to
get the votes he's got to deliver. Right now, free
buses for all sounds good until Mom Donnie's proposal for
making it happen is to take money away from the
company companies that actually employ people.
Speaker 17 (32:03):
And the other one you've been talking about fast and
free buses and your meeting with the governor. I've heard
you talk about many times that you don't want to
take money away from the MTA. You want to put
money back in. It's something that she agrees with, right,
we don't want to takeway money from the MTA. How
are you getting that money the seven hundred millions to
make the buses free into the MCA. If she's not
for raising taxes.
Speaker 12 (32:21):
You know, I think that the two clearest ways to
raise that money is through the raising of the state's
corporate tax to match she's in New Jersey. I think
that a lot of this is still a case to
be made, whether it's the corporate tax or that it's
the personal income tax on those who make more than
a million dollars a year or more. I think that
these are the clearest ways. I've also said that if
there are other ways to raise this funding. The most
important fact is that we fund it, not the question
(32:42):
of how we do it.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
But now we do it. So he's been in office,
what ten days or so? What happened over the weekend? Yep?
Speaker 1 (32:47):
The New York City nurses they went on strike because
they want a piece of that pie too.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
Everyone's going to want their handout from mayor. Mom.
Speaker 1 (32:54):
Donnie, good luck with that, my friend, you have no
money left. We'll be back two and a half minutes.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
All right.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
Tonight, folks were talking about something that sounds kind of
technical but actually hits right at the heart of rural America,
the Clarity Act. President Trump made a bold, smart move
when he brought cryptocurrencies into the US financial system instead
of letting run offshore. He kept America competitive, he kept
innovation here. But that reform left the loophole. Crypto platforms
(33:35):
pay what they call rewards instead of interest, and under
current law, those rewards don't follow the same rules as
bank deposits that allow money to quietly flow out of
community banks into unprotected digital platforms. Big banks can absorb
that small rural community banks simply can't. The Clarity Act
simply closes that gap, protecting local deposits without killing innovation
(33:57):
Iuman Now Jen Pellegrino and CEO of Defending Forgotten America.
Speaker 2 (34:02):
So Jen, why does this matter so much for small
town America?
Speaker 13 (34:07):
Well, thanks so much for having me.
Speaker 7 (34:08):
Eric.
Speaker 13 (34:09):
You know, what we do here at if en Forgotten
America is just that we look to the small rural
urban community, small urban communities, rural communities in America the
issues that matter most to them and bring those issues
to Washington. And this issue with stable coin and some
of the money that's going into it, the rewards that
are being paid, is really going to impact in a
negative way a lot of the small towns in America
(34:31):
you know that have you know, just one community bank,
one gas station, one hospital. If you lose one of those,
you lose that community. And so we're here to push
Congress to take action today and close this really urgent loophole.
Speaker 2 (34:44):
Can explain to the folks what the loophole is.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
So the way I understand it, and the only reason
why I even know about it is because I have
a Robinhood account, which yeah I have some stocks in there,
but I generally use that for bitcoin and ethereum. But
they'll offer me what they call some sort of reward.
It's essentially the same thing, isn't it.
Speaker 13 (35:03):
So, President Trump, I'll tell you this. Last year they
passed the Genius Act into law. That was something that
really protected a lot of Americans, protected small towns by saying, listen,
we don't want stable coin paying interest on these accounts. Well,
what happened is these organizations, these Silicon Valley institutions, found
a loophole. But by paying this interest but instead calling
(35:24):
it quote rewards, it's the exact same thing, Eric, So
they're paying this interest out it's an incentive for people.
And what happens then is their money goes out of
these local community banks, the community banks being the ones
that are there to provide you alone. If you're looking
to buy a home, if you're a farmer looking to
buy equipment, if your mom and top pop looking to
set up shop a cafe in your hometown, you're then
(35:46):
not able to do that because all the money is
being drained out of these accounts in the community banks
going into stable coin because of this attractive reward system
that they're setting up. That the intent of the Genius
Act was not to allow it, but again, it all
goes back to that loophole that they're calling a reward
and so therefore you're seeing these these local banks at
risk because of it.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
So didn't they think of that?
Speaker 1 (36:07):
I mean, Congress, didn't they think of this when they
put up the Genius Act, that oh, hey, maybe.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
We better like close any sort of loopholes. I mean,
how do they miss that? You think?
Speaker 13 (36:18):
You know listens, as you and I both know very well, Eric,
DC moves, especially under President Trump's leadership, at a really
fast pace. You know, I think they they pushed to
account for that, but it was something that you know,
was unforseeable. I'm sure there will be more issues like
this that will come up in the future, and that's
the reason organizations like Defend Forgotten America exist. We understand
(36:38):
that this president wants to get a lot done, but
sometimes there are little things that are overlooked, and you
hear small town America saying, hey, don't forget about us.
And so we're here to say, listen, Congress, you're you're
looking at the Clarity Act right now, close this loophole
as part of that, because beyond, you know, just this
this issue with stable coin, there are other issues being
(36:58):
considered that just weren't accounted or in the Genius Act,
which President Trump rightly put through very quickly. He wants
to make America the leader in cryptocurrency, and I believe
he'll do that. But this is certainly an issue that
needs to be addressed because we can both be that
and also have small town America thriving and keep those
banks open, keep them lending to small businesses, and keep
(37:19):
Main Street even better than it was a decade ago.
Speaker 2 (37:22):
Yeah. I don't even know this.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
So if my account at Robinhood falls, if Robinhood just
saw you there was whatever fraud going on, I'm pretty
sure they're not FDIC insured.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
So there's a risk there isn't.
Speaker 13 (37:35):
There There's a huge risk, Eric, I mean you think
back to Sam Bankman Freed I believe his name was,
and all the people that lost money in that crypto scamp.
I mean there's a lot of risk there. With your
local bank, you have that FDIC backing, you know that
if something goes south, your money is still protected. In
this case, with these cryptocurrencies, you don't have that luxury.
Speaker 1 (37:57):
So I guess the risk is too small community banks
who go all right, all this money is flowing out
of my bank that leaves them with really nothing the
loan for as you point out, homes, Mama pop cafes
or other.
Speaker 13 (38:11):
Yeah, and you know, President Trump, eric is really the
president for forgotten America. It's something we fully believe here
and the promise he's made and the promises that he's delivered.
I've heard a number of Cabinet secretaries say the same
thing and numerous Oval Office meetings. That is certainly true.
And we want to make sure that these people are
not forgotten. That you know, first time home buyers can
(38:31):
get that loan because that community bank is there. I
think back to my hometown, Eric, I come from rural America,
upstate New York. One of the banks in that town,
local bank. A lot of kids I went to high
school with, Well now they're not kids anymore, but they
work there. Those are the relationship bankers that are working
with people in my hometown that have known them for years,
that take into account these personal situations that these big
(38:54):
banks aren't going to be there for you like your
small town bank is. So we want to support them
and ensure that they're continuing to thrive. And then also
the locals in town, can operate their businesses, build businesses,
can buy that first time home. That's what this is
all about. And it's really a loophole that needs to
be fixed. And it you know, goes hand in hand
with the Clarity Act to making us the leader in
(39:15):
crypto and also building our small town.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
How long When is the Clarity Act? When does it
come up for a vote?
Speaker 13 (39:20):
You know, I believe on Thursday. There's going to be
a Senate discussion this.
Speaker 1 (39:24):
Week, this week, this week, okay, And so they're going
to close this loophole. So it's the wallets they call them.
Crypto wallets can't offer rewards, which in effect, there are
just another way of saying interest. Really, you know, with
the whole small town, the community bank versus the big bank.
It reminds me of it's a wonderful life when George
(39:46):
is trying to keep the bank open and big Potter
comes in with a big bank and he takes all
the money. And it was fine until the markets started
to go down and things started to go south a
little bit, and they're all going to.
Speaker 2 (39:56):
George help us. He's like, I can't. Potter's got all
your money. Idiots. So this has got to happen fairly soon.
This is a big, big number.
Speaker 1 (40:04):
We're talking about tens or hundreds of billions of dollars billions.
Speaker 13 (40:08):
Yes, listen, we can't have this level of greed. Small
town America needs to prosper, to continue to prosper, President
Trump is looking out for them. But again this item
was overlooked. We call on Congress now get this into
the Clarity Act. Let's get this done so we can
watch America become the leader on cryptocurrency under this president
and also really benefit small town America and sure that
(40:30):
we're not closing down our banks and therefore watching more
businesses shutter. Because I've seen the impact on small town
America during the last administration, how much they struggled. We
can't have that continue to go downhill. And I believe
under this president and the leadership in Washington, they'll hopefully
be pushing for that.
Speaker 2 (40:46):
Well.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
I know that you used to be a White House correspondent.
Trump always called in your remember where you were. Oh,
so you find yourself a defending forgotten America. Founder of
that Just very quickly, what are you guys about now?
Speaker 13 (40:58):
We're about rural and smaller of an America. Eric focused
on keeping the hospitals open that have been closing, keeping
banks open. As you see with this issue focusing on energy.
The issues that matter to small town America are issues
that matter to us, and we want to bring that
conversation to Washington because, as we discuss here, it's really
a metaphor for what we do. So much gets lost
in translation. DC is often thinking about the big cities.
(41:21):
You hear it on all the news headlines, the major outlets.
They're talking about what's happening in urban America. But what
about small town America. President Trump went out there and
campaigned for them, speaks about them often. Now, this is
making sure that we're not missing loopholes, we're not missing
issues that may seem minor to Washington but are a
really big deal to our small towns and small urban communities.
Speaker 1 (41:41):
That's great work. Great where you guys do again. Jen
pellagreena founder and CEO of Defend Forgotten America.
Speaker 2 (41:47):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 7 (41:49):
Eric.
Speaker 1 (41:50):

Most people don't even realize it. The smartest people aren't
looking for the loudest platforms anymore. They're looking for the
most serious rooms. That's why I built the Edge, exactly
why I built the Edge. Just a little over three months,

you create something that respects intelligence, strength, accountability, transparency, the
right audience, they find you, and they're finding the edge.
On the edge, we talk about real power, real competition,
real consequences, not cable news theater, not social media dopamine.

Speaker 3 (43:42):
Here is Democratic socialists are ruining their states.
Speaker 10 (43:46):
He eric, that governor Hocle and that Mondomi. They're a
piece of work. They're no better than the democratic socialist
idiots that are running Washington State, Colorado, Boston. There. You
could just compare them to the legal alien that burned
a woman on the subway from New York City. How
he stood there liter on fire, and then when she's burning,
(44:09):
he goes over to such standing her.
Speaker 2 (44:11):
Yeah, isn't amazing. It's not just those cities, it's almost
every Democrat run city.
Speaker 1 (44:15):
I mean, you think about Chicago and New York, Los Angeles,
San Francisco, goes Portland, Portland.
Speaker 2 (44:22):
I mean, we haven't heard Portland in a couple of years.
Speaker 1 (44:23):
With Portland, the same way you can be lawless, you
can be I don't know, burn the place down, create
an autonomous zone where the police aren't supposed to go
and no one says anything if you're If you're a
liberal leftist, and they are, they're ruining this great country.
Speaker 2 (44:36):
Minneapolis, New York City, and.
Speaker 1 (44:39):
DOMI socialist is running New York City, the greatest financial
center of the universe.
Speaker 2 (44:47):
Socialist. What's happening, Maio, What the hell's happening?
Speaker 18 (44:50):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (44:51):
It's got to be fixed.
Speaker 1 (44:54):
That football game is fixed. The Chicago game, wasn't it.
It's another Let's have another one.
Speaker 6 (44:59):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (45:00):
The Sorrow's Compound needs to be rated.
Speaker 2 (45:02):
Got it.
Speaker 7 (45:03):
My name's Mike from Arizona. My message is as follows.
It's time to do a raid on the Sorrows Compound
and prosecute all these people that are funding the violence
and riots. Not until this happens, it will just continue.
Thanks for being a great American. We love you. Take
(45:27):
care and be safe, my friend.
Speaker 2 (45:29):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (45:30):
Sir, I appreciating you too, Yes, sorous, I mean Trump
is hinted to like finding the source of the funding
for the agitators. Look, you know, peaceful protest is protecting
the constitution. Peaceful protests, but agitating people to the point
where they're trying to run down Ice officers, that's not
I really, really, honestly think that Jacob Fried, the mayor
of Minneapolis who dropped an F bomb saying, hey, Ice,
(45:53):
get the f out of Minneapolis and to what and
also walts with his rhetoric dommy calling the ICE agent
a murder. These people should be prosecution should be investigated.
Let's investigate if there's any sort of coordination. Certainly, if
there's coordination with these Soros types. You can support peaceful protests,
(46:14):
it's protected, but you can't promote rhetoric, heightened rhetoric that
causes people to gin themselves up to the point where
they're creating violence or creating the situations where violence could happen.
That woman blocked the road. Cops were telling her to leave,
Law enforcement was saying leave, and she stayed there until
it got worse and worse and worse, and then she
took off, hitting an agent. This is what Stay out
(46:36):
of the problem.
Speaker 2 (46:37):
Don't become the problem. Mad dog.
Speaker 7 (46:40):
This viewer believes that Ice shooting was justified.
Speaker 19 (46:44):
Hey, Eric, love your show. This is Jeff from Homer.
I got something to tell you about this shooting with
the Ice and the Ice officers.
Speaker 18 (46:53):
You know, most people are talking, well, they could have
shot the tires out, and they could have shot this,
and they could have shot that. That's a bunch of
below is what that is. You can shoot all four
tires out, they can still run you over. The only
way to stop that vehicle physically is to kill that
person behind the wheel, no matter who it is. And
they have seconds to figure it out. And I'm telling
(47:14):
you right now, there's no way you can shoot that
carriac full of holes if you don't get that driver
of that car is still coming after you. And that
is a plain old fact. It's called a misser and
it's going to move.
Speaker 19 (47:25):
And when I am so angry that all of these people,
and they's leftists, they're talking about it like they'd be
just playing killed it for no reason. He had his
life in his hand and he did what he had
to do. He's already had one thing they said where
he reached in a car and they drove off and
drug him or something. I didn't get the whole thing
(47:47):
and missed some of it, but I don't really know completely.
But still facts are the only way to stop that
car is to kill the driver in that situation that
I saw on TV. All right, Eric, love you guy,
Love all you guys on that channel.
Speaker 2 (48:02):
Take care, Thank you, sir. I agree with you.
Speaker 1 (48:04):
You know something we haven't really talked about. You're right,
if six and eight thousand pound vehicle coming at you,
you're not gonna be able to this close, this fast,
you're not gonna be able to shoot any tires out.
Speaker 2 (48:14):
For one.
Speaker 1 (48:14):
Number two, does anyone talk about maybe the ice agent
saved other people's lives, Like, okay, maybe she would have
gone on and hit more people down the road because
she was clearly out of control. Right if you want
to say she didn't mean to doesn't matter if she
meant to her not, she was, she was running over.
Speaker 2 (48:31):
An agent can't do that.
Speaker 1 (48:32):
He's got to stop you. He's gonna stop you with
whatever way he can. Shooting out a tire isn't gonna
stop you. The original video looked like he was out
of the way, and she turned. When you saw the
other overhead and the other officer's camera, the actual cell
phone from the officer, you realize that there was no
way he was getting out of that way.
Speaker 2 (48:50):
She was gonna hit him, and she did, and he
gets hit and he shoots her, maybe saving himself. I
don't know.
Speaker 1 (48:56):
Maybe he was safe at that point, but we don't know.
If there are more officers right down the road. I
think there were, if you remember back, I think there
were a bunch of officers down that road, and she
may have taken them out too. How do you know
that she wasn't going to I think what he did
all unfortunate, very unfortunate. Did the right thing, all right,
he did the right thing. I think he's going to
be protected by the law. What weird thing, there was
(49:18):
a GoFundMe page for Renee Good. It's up to a
million and a half dollars. I mean, she's the one
who started this, She's the reason all this happened. Fortunately,
Bill Ackman, a billionaire, put a million dollars in the
ice agent's account as well. So we're gonna see how
this point plays out. But this isn't over by any
means anytime.
Speaker 2 (49:35):
Soon, mad Dog. Great time. Thank you guys, Thank you guys.
Speaker 1 (49:37):
For joining us. Warham coming up next. Really really enjoyed
being back with you here on Monday. We'll see you
again tomorrow. Seevan and Warum on on the deck. I
don't know if it's if it's Steve or not, but
if it is, tell him. We got to do the
tosses again real soon. We had a lot to talk about.
