Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is a podcast from woar from.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
Everywhere, USA. It's Fox Across America with Jimmy Fala and.

Speaker 1 (00:08):
We are fired up to bring you a big Thursday
episode of the high flying Death of Fire and Fox
Across America with Jimmy Fayala.

Speaker 3 (00:16):
A man who is not ganging up on John Fetterman.

Speaker 1 (00:19):
No man the entire Democratic Party trying to kick out
the one guy who calls balls and strikes. Not right.
I'm upset about this for real. Fetaman was the only
Democrat who had the decency to fight to get back
the hostages, which is ironic because Fetterman looks like the
type of guy who has hostages in his basement. And

(00:41):
we're going to talk about it on a very busy
episode of the show. Got a lot of special guests.
Mikey has lined us up for another Headline Highway. I
don't know how that's gonna go if yesterday's Headline Highway
is any indication it's gonna sound like this, but we
will get into it. We will continue to continue to
be your source for top shelf radio in a bottom

(01:06):
feeding political world. The reason I get on the air
every day across the country and on the TVs and
the streaming apps.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
And the phones and try to be the port and
the storm.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Do you remember in pulp fiction when he's like, I'm
trying real hard to be the shepherd man, But it's
hard being the sheperd It's so hard when everybody in
politics is as full of it as they are. But
that's the reason we get on the air. We say
this every day. I'm not trying to be in charge
of the democracy. I'm not telling you how to vote.
I'm just trying to keep you semi entertained while you

(01:40):
drive down the highway to work or cook the meth
and the Winnebago Walter White style. I don't really judge you.
I say you're all welcome. Be a Republican, be a Democrat,
just don't be a bang. How about it? Happy Thursday.
A lot going on. There's a lot happening. My TV
show Fox New Saturday Night this week Kennedy, Brian Brenberg,

(02:01):
my wife Jenny Fala has been added to the lineup.

Speaker 3 (02:05):
That's stupid.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
Use your comments is probably agree with that, but it's
cheap labor. You can't really turn it down. Sergeant Slaughter
w w E Wrestling legend also scheduled to be on
the show. We're working out some difficulties right now in
terms of logistics and flights and hotels. That's how TV works.
But everybody's bargaining in good faith when it comes to politics.
When it comes to what happened to Fetterman last night

(02:28):
in this Morning, Yeah, I gotta tell you, man, I'm
a little worked up about this one. So let me
give you the story because I'm trying to hold it
together here. Fetterman did a town hall. I believe it
was a News Nation town hall. It was at the
Kennedy Center. Stephen A. Smith, Bill O'Reilly never heard of him.
Stephen A. Smith, Bill O'Reilly. I think Jim Jordan was there.

(02:49):
Fetterman was there. There might have been one other congressman
I'm not terribly familiar with. But the point is they
were doing a town hall about everything, the shutdown, the
hostage situation in Democrat rhetoric, and the one common thread
we've all kind of seen in this Fetterman evolution is
that this is a guy who had a stroke, and

(03:10):
everybody on Fox at the time, including myself, was watching
him and going, man, I don't know that he could
serve in the Senate because he was doing campaign rallies
where he wouldn't actually speak at the rally. That can't
be good, you know what I mean, He wouldn't actually
speak at his own rallies because the guy was banged up.
And again, we didn't make fun of him because you know,
there but for the grace of God go I. But

(03:31):
we absolutely thought he had a debilitating brain injury and
people were just voting for him because it was a
party over country moment. But what's crazy? And we've all
kind of made the same, you know, kind of remark
as the more Fetterman has healed from that injury, the
less he has sounded like a Democrat. It's crazy, okay,

(03:53):
But he agreed with the Republicans on almost everything. And
last night he went out and said what should be
a pretty common sense thing, Pretty common sense. Don't call
your opponent's Nazis. Don't say they're white supremacists to get
people killed. It's dangerous. It's also just not true. It's embarrassing.

(04:13):
Do you know what an insult it is to the
six million people who died in the Holocaust to say
folks that vote for Trump or Nazis or that Trump
is a Nazi. Guys, Trump is a Jewish daughter. He's
really bad at being a Nazi. Trump just freed a
bunch of Jewish hostages. I don't know what you remember
about Hitler from history class. I didn't get the best grades,

(04:34):
but Hitler wasn't exactly known for freeing the Jews. Okay,
So when Feederman comes out and says this, yeah, he
gets a round of applause from sensible people in the room.
Everybody nods their head on the stage. But within minutes
of this town hall ending, there's an Axios report surfacing
making the rounds that the Democratic Party is plotting to

(04:55):
get rid of John Fetterman.

Speaker 3 (04:57):
They don't want him anymore.

Speaker 1 (04:58):
They heard him agree with the report Buplicans on one point,
and they were like.

Speaker 4 (05:01):
He should be behind bar.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
Oh yeah, they'd lock him up if they could.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
So let me give you some of this because it's
again what I consider to be a teachable moment. So
the funniest thing about being me. I went to community college,
meaning I enrolled. I didn't even go, you know, I
just needed to stay on my parents' health care and basically,
you know, show up, grab a book at the bookstore.
You know, take a couple of tests and drink a

(05:26):
bunch of Meister Brown in the parking lot. Fat, drunk
and stupid. There's no way to go through life stuff Fat,
drunk and stupid. Is exactly how I went through the
years nineteen ninety five through nineteen ninety seven. Okay, and
I never thought I would be teaching anyone anything other
than how to shotgun a bud dry beer in a
parking lot. But that being said, when it comes to politics,
so much of this is human nature, and it has

(05:48):
a lot less to do with policy. It has nothing
to do with principle. There's no principle left in politics.
I'll get to that in a second. And it has
everything to do with just being cool. Be somebody that
folks are happy to see coming. You know, somebody walks
into a party and every was like, hey, this guy's here,
all right? High five. Do you remember the beginning of
Kingpin when Woody Allen walks into the bowling alley and

(06:11):
they're playing Disco Inferno, and he's got like a secret
handshake for everybody. He takes a bite of one guy's
hot dog, he holds up the bowling ball that whole thing, okay,
and everybody's just happy to see him there. Okay. I'm
not saying you have to be Roy Munson, a state
champion bowler who's gonna go toe to toe with Bigger
and McCracken and the Reno Open. But I am saying
you're gonna have a much better life and you're gonna

(06:32):
contribute a lot more to society if you're just somebody
that people are fine with seeing. You don't want to
be the guy that walks into the room and everybody's like,
oh God, oh real, here it comes.

Speaker 3 (06:46):
Okay, it's a.

Speaker 1 (06:47):
Party, now, you know what I mean. You don't want
to be Katie Porter. Nobody sees Katie Porter coming and goes, Wow,
the mood's about to live it up in here. That
doesn't happen. You don't want to be that person, Okay,
And that's the teachable moment in what I'm about to
tell you. Fetterman makes the kind of comments of a
person you want to see coming. Hey man, I don't

(07:08):
care how you vote, just don't call the people who
disagree with you a Nazi. That guy, I promise you,
is cool at a party. The guy who shows up
and goes, Oh, you voted Republican.

Speaker 3 (07:18):
You're a Hitdler.

Speaker 1 (07:20):
Nobody wants to hang out with that guy. Why are
you going to stick around to have nachos so they
can accuse you of cultural appropriation? Of course not. And
that's the teachable moment here. The Democrats keep putting themselves
in this position, whether he're on the wrong side of cool,
you know, just the wrong side of reason. Here's Fetterman,
this is clip one.

Speaker 5 (07:38):
I'm the only Democrat in my family. I grew up
in a conservative part of Pennsylvania, and I grew up
and I know and I love people that voted for
President Trump. But they are not fascists, they're not Nazis.
They're not trying to destroy her, the Constitution and those things.
And that's part of another thing. I refuse to call

(07:59):
people you Nazis or fascists, or I would never compare
anybody anybody to Hitler in those things.

Speaker 3 (08:08):
See did you hear that?

Speaker 4 (08:09):
Did you?

Speaker 3 (08:09):
I just I wouldn't compare anybody to Hitler.

Speaker 1 (08:13):
Pretty pretty reasonable take from John Fetterman. Okay, unless you
happen to be a Democrat, in which case they have
lost their minds over this one. So let me read
you this. I'm opening it up in my phone. That's
how serious this show just got. I mean, I'm normally
opening my phone during a broadcast with all the cameras
in the studio. It's because I'm checking out some starlet

(08:36):
Mikey just texted me off Instagram, some horny housewife who
just started in. Only fans you know what I'm saying.
But I'm opening my phone to read you an article.
I can prove it if you're watching on the nation cameras.
Top Democrats in Pennsylvania are reportedly circling John Fetterman and
plotting a potential primary challenge with the goal of ousting

(08:59):
the lawmaker.

Speaker 6 (09:01):
That is balder dash and hogwash and are.

Speaker 3 (09:04):
You following me here?

Speaker 1 (09:05):
Fetterman goes on TV says, hey, don't call him Nazis,
and they go primary time, fire up the fundraising machine.

Speaker 3 (09:12):
He's a Nazi too.

Speaker 1 (09:14):
Fetterman has become the subject of criticism among Democrats for
his maverick softer approach to President Trump and some of
his policies which often break party lines. Ooh. Possible contenders,
according to Axios, include Representative Chris de Luzil Pennsylvania Democrat
who is quietly building a populist rust belt profile. An
aggressive Fetterman critic Representative Brendan Doyle, who branded him Trump's

(09:37):
favorite Democrat and accused the Senator of kissing the ring
with Amar a Lago visit earlier this year. Now, I
will tell you this, and it's worth knowing. I've interviewed
Fetterman at the White House correspondence dinner. He was a
really cool guy. We talked about wah wahs, we talked
about the Steelers versus the Eagles. He's a big Steelers guy.
He prefers sheets, gas stations over wahwa. I know that's

(10:00):
a territorial dispute. I am team sheets all the way, okay,
And I do love Fetterman. I loved talking to him.
He was reasonable. He's not a political shock jock, you know,
like Jasmine Crockett is a shock jock. She's gonna go
everybody's a slave catcher if you're a Republican, and all
the Republicans are gonna click on it, like oh hell no.

(10:21):
And she's gonna get clicks and make money on Twitter.
But she's never gonna contribute anything of substance to society. Okay,
AOC does that. Marjorie Teller Green does that. But because
she broke ranks with Trump, Bernie Sanders is now saying
she's the one sensible Republican that is still out there
on the right. Okay, because she took his side. So
do you see how the game works. There's a huge

(10:43):
viral trend on the internet right now because Bernie said
Marjorie Taylor Green is cool because she disagreed with Trump
on one issue. But think about that. Fetterman disagrees with
the Democrats on win issue. They primary the guy, get
him out of here, yet him out and say this
when there's a double standard, there's no standard, Like, if

(11:04):
you want to be a cool person, you can't besiege
people with double standards. Okay, let me give you the
rest of this article though, Okay, Fetterman still remains popular
across the state, where he's held the seat since twenty
twenty two. When Axios contacted the senator for comment, he
texted back, enjoy your clickbait, Please do not contact I

(11:24):
love that's great, that's great, And he's calling it clickbait
and I know it's because he doesn't have the time
to deal with reporters.

Speaker 3 (11:33):
You don't want to put up with it.

Speaker 1 (11:34):
But let's be very serious right now, it ain't clickbait.
They want him out. I'll give you another comment from Fetterman,
and you tell me if this sounds like a guy
they want a round. Fetterman was asked last night if
he thought Kamala could get the hostages out. You remember
Kamala Harris, he's not real smart. Well here's the discussion

(11:54):
opening up clip too.

Speaker 5 (11:56):
I think I was the only Democrat early on to
to give President Trump the credit for the peace deal.
Why why wouldn't you? I mean that US could have
got it. Uh, well again, I don't know. She's not
the president. But but where I'm at right now, it's
it's like ask any of the hostages or their families.

(12:16):
They think President Trump was a hero and he deserves,
you know, the kind of deal for that thing. I
think that was really a remarkable development.

Speaker 3 (12:26):
Do you think Harris could have got him out?

Speaker 1 (12:28):
No? I think it's a silly question. So they teared
like Steven A. Smith, he goes, You think Garrison get
it out? He goes. No, guy next to him goes.
I think it's a silly question.

Speaker 7 (12:40):
Kamanda is a so stupid.

Speaker 3 (12:44):
Nobody believes that. But again, he's being honest.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
And here's the thing. There's nobody in the Democrat party
who thought Kamala was a good candidate. There's nobody a
Democrat party thought she would have got the hostages out. Okay.
Prior to her becoming the nominee, they spent the entire
month of June twenty twenty four saying Biden should take
her off the ticket because she was a drag on
his chances. So when they made her the nominee and
everybody did that North Korean about face, Oh what, dear

(13:10):
leader says, it's cool, we love Kamala. Get her down here,
Doug the husband, the guy who bangs the nannies, who
doesn't like that guy? Okay, And they did that pivot
that about face because it's so completely transactional. But when
you see it in real time, it's such a gross
look on a group of people because you realize anybody
who is that expedient when it comes to political moves

(13:32):
and choices that they make is not an authentic person.
They're not somebody you want to see coming at a party.
So if you like Fetterman, if you hate Fetterman, if
you think you shouldn't have been a senator, you were
a big doctor Oz guy. You like all the Oprah appearances.
You bought the flim flam vitamins he was selling and
all the good stuff. You're well within your rights.

Speaker 3 (13:49):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (13:50):
That is your authentic position, okay, And that's all we're
ever encouraging you to do on this show is be authentic.
Whether you're a politician or a voter. It's gonna take
you a lot further in life.

Speaker 7 (14:02):
He's a lousy dad, but he's right.

Speaker 1 (14:05):
He's the host. You shouldn't get too close to a
lot of things about me.

Speaker 4 (14:10):
You don't know anything about that.

Speaker 8 (14:11):
Any things you wouldn't understand, things he couldn't understand.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
It has flossed across America with Jimmy Fayla. You know,
a better radio host would have told you who was
coming up on the show today. Fundamentally, I would have
been like, you know, we got this coming up. Here's
the phone number, here's how you get in touch. We
don't do that in the A block any We're doing
it a new way. We're driving a we're driving it.
You know they say we're driving it like we stole it.

(14:36):
We're driving it like we rented it, and we took
out the damage waiver. But if you must know, Louisiana
Senator John Kennedy is joining us in the third hour
of the show. That's an idea we owe this guy royalty.
Is you know how many of us drops I have
played on this show. I love John Kennedy, He's on
the show. Caitln Sinclair is on the show as part

(14:58):
of Mikey's Babe Parade. And of course we'll have the
headline highway. We'll hand out a couple of participation trophies
along the way. But right now it's straight up you
and me, Tom, I want to give you a little more,
a little more on last night's town hall, which featured
Fetterman speaking out in support of not calling people Nazis,
only to get primaried by the Democrats and of course

(15:20):
Stephen A. Smith, who called bs on every politician on
the stage over the shutout. And I want to play
this because I've been making this point since the shutdown happened. Okay,
the reason I don't get worked up about the shutdown is, yes,
I have a lot of empathy for the people missing
paychecks and the people who depend on the government. Of
course I do. But when it comes to the political infighting,
it's all it's I mean, I'm trying not to curse

(15:43):
on the air, but yes, it's all bullsh all of it.
Here is Steven A. Smith telling you the truth. Every
one of these people who's in a shutdown is getting paid.
They're doing town halls, they're coming on my show, they're
hanging out. You know, we ain't getting paid the people
who voted for him. Here it is Clip three.

Speaker 9 (16:00):
That's why you have so many Americans excuse my language,
so picked off at Washington, because somehow, some way you
get to have these conversations, engage in specific elements of
it to talk about what we need to do to
get things better. Our debt is thirty seven.

Speaker 1 (16:18):
Point eight trillion.

Speaker 9 (16:20):
Somehow, some way the taxpayer has been paying this, been
throwing money because we all look at our check and
it's been going to the government. And somehow, some way,
you're supposed to be doing something.

Speaker 10 (16:31):
Constructive and productive enough to make sure that we don't
have that kind of deficit, and isn't happening. A government
shutdown is going on right now. A man has to
work on door Dash when he's really an air traffic
controller that we applaud it. And we're up here talking
about how much some money is gonna cost and the

(16:54):
only person that don't have a check coming is him.

Speaker 3 (16:56):
You know what I'm gonna do.

Speaker 1 (16:58):
I'm gonna take a break. So Steven A. Smith walked off.
That was like has dropped the mike moment. But he's
telling you the truth. You got an air traffic controller
not getting paid. He's picking up a side cast, a
side gig for door Dash. But every single member of
Congress who's just now we're shut down. We'll figure it
out when they budge. They're doing a no Kings thing
on Saturday. Have you seen the people at the No

(17:20):
King's protests? It should be called no Exercise, or maybe
call it no dates because it's just such a sad
collection of frumpy white slobs and there's no black people,
there's no minorities because nobody cares. It's a made up thing.
They're selling merch off of it. It's embarrassing. We'll get
into it because somebody else spoke out last night from
Hollywood didn't go as good as the Steven A. Smith clip.

(17:44):
I just played you.

Speaker 3 (17:45):
We are going to cover an absolute train wreck.

Speaker 1 (17:48):
Pete Booty Judge would be crap proud, it's East Palestine stuff.
When we come back at Fox Across America, there is
Fox Across America with Jimmy Glo holding this country together.
One broadcast at the time, Deuisia Senator John Kennedy's coming by.
We're gonna hear from Kaitless and Claire, and we're gonna
plug the hell out of my November twenty second date

(18:10):
in Pittsburgh YO WJAS YO Beaver County Radio. This gig
is almost sold out. You got to make a move
if you want to go see me live. If you're
listening out there in Ambridge with a lot of my
Polish Falcon family, that gig Saturday night, November the twenty second,

at foxacross America dot com. And if you're not in

(18:32):
Pittsburgh and you want to see me on the West
coast the following weekend, the twenty eighth, San Louis obispo
Hey Girl, the twenty ninth, I am in Vegas for

a second show. It's about to sell out, So shout
out to everybody on k Dawn listening to me out
in Vegas. That gig Saturday night, November twenty ninth. It's
Thanksgiving weekend. You'll feel a lot better, a lot better

(18:54):
about your own holiday weight game when you see mine,
because believe me, I am going hard when I get
out of to the West Coast read and everything. But
all of those tickets are on salfox across America dot com.
The Palm Beach Kennel Clubs sold out December sixth. You
can't get in. You can come gamble though, hang out
after the show if you want to do that, that
would be amazing, And then you can twenty twenty six,

(19:14):
we go to Saint Louis January the twenty fourth, We
go to Wichita, Kansas, January the thirty first, and then
we're adding a lot of other gigs, So buckle up, Buttercup.
But right now we got to do some radio. That's
the actual job here. It's not the job. It's one
of several jobs, as you know. But as it pertains
to the conversation we've been having around politics, this Saturday

(19:38):
for the Democrats is something called No King's Day. I mean,
what's the dumbest thing I've heard of, dumbest thing I've
ever heard of. Nobody's acting like it's like they made
up a phrase. That's what they do. They make up
a phrase and repeat it a lot, thinking people are
going to buy in. There's nobody anywhere in America that

(20:03):
was getting home from work tonight going yeah, we live.

Speaker 3 (20:05):
Under a king.

Speaker 1 (20:07):
Scary thinks he's a king. What he's like, he's royalty. Now,
I will grant you there's a lot of gold in
the Oval Office right now. For real, it looks like
the Oval Office looks like a Cracker Barrel if it
was a much much, much higher end restaurant. You know,
when you go to Cracker Barrel. As Tom Shlou famously said,
we love Cracker Barrel on the show. I love Crackerbrow.

(20:29):
I'm not disparaging Cracker Brow, so don't get it twisted
as the kids say. But you know, Cracker Brow looks
like it's owned by hoarders. There's like a license plate.
There's one roller skate on the wall. It's like a
half a ski pole. You know, it's a picture of
Mickey Mantle. You know, it's cool stuff. I love it,
love the Americana aspect. The Oval Office is now that decorated,
like relentlessly. You can't even see the walls in the

(20:52):
Oval Office anymore. It was like Trump just took everything
they had in the reserves and just you know, t
shirt gunned them all over the room everywhere. You can't
look an inch in that White House and see wall,
and he's throwing gold onto all of it. And for
that reason, okay, you could go, yeah, it looks like royalty.
That looks like something you'd see in buck Again palace maybe.

(21:14):
But as it pertains to a king, is anybody walking
around right now thinking they live under a kingance would
be No, The Democrats made this up. No kings is
what started out as fighting the oligarchy. And fighting the
oligarchy was like, no one says oligarchy. Yes, if Joe
Biden was doing a commercial for the olive Garden, he

(21:34):
would probably say oligarchy five times by accident. That's a
real actual thing. Biden is such a disaster. But does
any human being in their everyday lives go, you know
with this freaking oligarchy? Honey? Unbelievable car won't start freaking oligarchy.
No one was saying it. Nobody cares. And they realized
the fighting the Oligarchy tour wasn't catching on, so they

(21:58):
decided to make it sound more human, and they now
started calling it no Kings. It's the same people, it's
the same movement. Dude. If you have to change the
name of your movement, you don't have a very good movement.

Speaker 4 (22:12):
He knows what he's talking about.

Speaker 1 (22:14):
Now, we were doing the fight in the oligarch we're
doing the no Kings now. Now next week we're gonna
be doing the uh sick of the villains. Okay, because
no one buys into the king thing either. They don't care.
No King's Day July fourth, seventeen seventy six, that was
No King's Day. We sent a letter over to the
King of England and we were like, hey, buddy, how

(22:35):
about you. That's what we did. That's what That was
No King's Day. And the war started and here we are. Okay.
But as it pertains to the current moment we're living in,
kings don't get overruled by appellate court judges. Kings don't
have to appeal themselves to the Supreme Court. Kings don't
get indicted ninety one times by fake prosecutions. Kings very

(22:57):
rarely get shot, and if they do, the guy who
shot him doesn't get cremated within a few hours while
they bleach the sight of all the evidence and we
never get a follow up investigation.

Speaker 3 (23:07):
I'm promising you.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
You know the old adage of you come for the king,
you best not miss. They came for the king, they missed,
and we never heard another word about it. Bingo. So understand, Okay,
this whole rally is a made up This is our
latest attempt to make people care. But nobody cares. If

(23:30):
you ever worked with someone, it's like, really mean to people.
But they do it from the standpoint of, oh, you
guys just wish you were my friend, and you're like, no, no, no,
nobody likes you. Nobody was to hang out with you.
You're a monster. Okay, that's kind of the no King's protest.
The people that are calling you hitler, nobody likes them. Okay.
The people who says they're protecting democracy, would you stomp

(23:51):
it you jailed your political opponent and shot them, Okay,
you're not protecting democracy. But again, nobody likes people that
are that transparently hypocritical. Okay, yet they're out there mean
girling the rest of society. We're are going to No
Kings rally. You wish you were with us. Kathy Griffin's
gonna be there. I'm like, that's a real thing. Kathy

(24:12):
Griffin is gonna be there. And you remember Kathy Griffin,
very controversial figure. She had that tweet with the giant
plastic face that freaked everybody out. But enough about her face.
You know she was also holding up that severed Trump head.
But here's Kathy Griffin now doing the old Trump didn't

(24:32):
win a free and fair election? Oh shut up, warm
a clip.

Speaker 6 (24:38):
For People are calling this protest the No King's Day
because Trump thinks he's a king, and you know he's not.

Speaker 1 (24:48):
He's barely a president. In fact.

Speaker 6 (24:50):
Guess what I'm going to say something that's going to
get me in trouble. I don't think he won in
a free and fair election. You heard me. I'm coming
out and saying it myself. I don't care if that
means I look crazy.

Speaker 1 (25:02):
You don't look crazy. I actually don't look crazy. You
look like carrat Top knocked up. Jensaki. That's what you
look like. You do not look crazy, Do not put
yourself down. You look like Carratop and Jensaki were going
at it. And it's actually not even true. It looks
like she looks like Prince Harry knocked up Jensaki, which

(25:22):
is likely because Prince Harry clearly has a thing for
annoying chicks. So let's not pretend it wouldn't be entirely
possible for that sort of thing to happen.

Speaker 3 (25:31):
But again, the ask here is that you.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
Buy into the idea that Donald Trump is acting like
a king.

Speaker 3 (25:39):
I mean, you don't have a clue.

Speaker 1 (25:41):
It's so embarrassing, and it's not a free and fair election.
Do you realize what she was saying a year ago.
We're protecting our democracy because Trump said the twenty twenty
election was stolen, and anybody who tells you an election
is stolen should basically die in prison. Never mind that
they told us the sixteen election was stolen and we

(26:01):
also threw it. The point is she's now out there
doing the thing again. And by the way, I know
I'll get in trouble with this, but I don't think
you want a free and fair election. Okay, look at
all the swing states. No one's ever won all the
swing states except they have, except that there have been
blowouts in elections. Seriously, five times the size of a
trumpy Kamalabai. Was it a landslide? Yes?

Speaker 3 (26:23):
Does he have a mandate?

Speaker 1 (26:24):
Yes? Was it Reagan versus Mondale? No? Okay? Trump won
a little over three hundred electoral votes. Okay, Reagan won
close to five hundred. Think about insane. You know those
NBA playoff games where it's like Game four, teams on
the road, they're down one, twenty four to fifty two

(26:45):
at the half, and you're like, well, somebody who was
out in the strip club last night? These boys got
no legs left, just gonna empty the bench and lose
this one by ninety two.

Speaker 3 (26:56):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (26:56):
That was the Reagan Mondale election. I'll never forget it.
Reagan was like a superhero. He was my first president.
He was a big deal. And when he ran for
reelection against Mondale. On actual election day, we were all
from school at Abbey Lane School. I grew up right
by the Abbe Lane School in Levittown. We went and
hit out at the school behind the dumpsters, waiting for

(27:17):
the results of the election. Because we really believed if
like Reagan lost, we were really bad trouble. We didn't
even know why. We're just like he was the guys.
He rooted for the guy. You know, you think there
is no joy in Mudville, Mighty Casey has struck out,
Like ideally, there probably was still joy in Mudville. The
bars were probably still open. There were probably still a

(27:37):
lot of hot, frisky women who had one beer too many.

Speaker 4 (27:39):
Oh yes, I've read about that in the Bible.

Speaker 1 (27:42):
I'm sure the pizza plays kept delivering, you know, I'm
sure the juke box still had good music. So it's
a bit of hyperbole that you sometimes buy into because
it sounds good. And that was the nineteen eighty four election,
except Mighty Casey didn't get shut out or struck out.
You know, he hit went out of the stadium and
broke a car window in the parking. Okay, but Reagan

(28:02):
was my guy. And like when I hear Kathy Griffin
be like, no one's ever won by this, it must
be fixed. I'm like, do you even follow politics? And
the Andrew is no? I started the week playing you
Martin Sheen clips. I was like, Martin Sheen, it's obviously
like a really successful actor. I wish the guy no
ill will. He's spectacularly rich, it's living a fabulous life.
So when he weighs in on politics, you're getting the

(28:22):
ramblings of a guy who's not even watching the movie.
Like imagine you're watching Rocky four with a guy who
didn't see one, two and three, and he's sitting there
telling you who Polly is and what Adrian does. You
know what I'm saying, and you're like, wait, just shut up,
I don't who cares. You're not even like you're annoyed.
But you know a man, you don't wish him any
ill will?

Speaker 3 (28:42):
You just go out?

Speaker 1 (28:43):
The guy's an annoying guy to watch your movie with. Okay,
that's most Hollywood actors when it comes to politics.

Speaker 3 (28:48):
They're weighing in.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
With next to no knowledge of what you're talking about,
and they become an annoying guy to watch this movie with.
That's Kathy Griffin. Here are you ready? I'll give you
a clip I heard doing the Elon Musk is a
Nazi thing. Elon Musk, that's crazy.

Speaker 6 (29:01):
Listen to this clip five Elon Musk, who's this other
Nazi guy running around town who owns X and a
lot of people think he's a genius, but he's not.
He's like a fake genius. Anyway, he's a but he's
a professional Nazi in my humble opinion. And he's good
friends with Trump. And at one point, I don't know

(29:22):
if you remember, but he was giving out million dollar
checks to.

Speaker 4 (29:25):
People if they would vote for Trump.

Speaker 6 (29:27):
That's illegal, it's unconstitutional and illegal.

Speaker 3 (29:30):
So that was happening.

Speaker 6 (29:32):
And the fact that Trump won all seven swing states,
which has never happened in the history of the US,
makes it all very suspicious to me. So there, I
said it.

Speaker 1 (29:42):
Oh my god, some of these these women there, they're
so stupid. And by the way, what's the Nazi part
of Elon Musk? She said he spent a lot of
money on the election. Did she say anything when Mark
Zuckerberg spent five hundred million dollars to get Biden elected.

(30:04):
And that's the point. These people are so wildly uninformed.
And you know, they weighed in from time to time
because it's a branding exercise. They want to look like
they care. Hey, I'm an ally to the little papal
and I'm gonna call this guy a Nazi and say
the election was fake, based on a metric that isn't real.

Speaker 3 (30:23):
No one's ever won all this swigs day.

Speaker 1 (30:24):
Oh gosh, Mondelle only won one state when he ran
against election. He won Minnesota. It's the only state he won.
Reagan beat him forty nine states to one.

Speaker 3 (30:38):
That was embarrassing.

Speaker 1 (30:41):
The guy who was popular enough to win forty nine
to one. The guy who wanted to minimize the size
of the government, the guy who Donald Trump looked up
to and once got a letter from saying maybe you
should get into politics someday. Okay. The guy who just
freed all the Jewish hostages, which is really not Hitler stuff,

(31:04):
as Kathy would like you to believe. But the guy
who implemented doge to shrink the size of the government.
Guys again, Kings try to expand the kingdom. Kings try
to take more power, more of your money. This guy's
trying to shrink the government, cut your taxes so you're
not so reliant on the government. As it pertains to

(31:27):
a king. He's doing the opposite. Government is not the
solution to our problem. Government is the problem. The host
who always.

Speaker 3 (31:37):
Has gifts for his listeners.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
Box across America with Jimmy Palem and I am going
to have to play you one clip from Alexandria Ocassio Cortes.
AOC is a dope. Well, it's a big knife for aos.
She's got New York City may oriol race going down
the debates tonight between Curtis Sliwa zor on Mom Donny

(32:01):
and former New York Governor hansy Andy Cuomo. And so
AOC is getting in the ring. Last night she flubbed
a line on CNN and accidentally said that air is
drinkable air Air, Air is drinkable. Clip six. We're sick of.

Speaker 11 (32:21):
Talking about these horse races, and we're sick of leaders
who only want to spend their time talking about that
instead of talking about real issues that affect our lives,
instead of talking about healthcare, instead of talking about wages,
instead of talking about having air that's drinkable, I mean
air that's breathable and water and water that's drinkable.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
So it's like a little bit of a slip, not
the end of the world, but it's still pretty funny
because again the lecture comes from a gal who's part
of the government shut downside. They shut down the government,
all right, that's what happened. And they're like, well, the
Republicans controlled the Senate, in the House, the presidency, but
they don't mention there's a rule that you have to

(33:04):
get at least sixty votes, and the Republicans don't have
that many seats in the Senate to get to sixty
by themselves, so they need the Democrats to help them
reopen it.

Speaker 4 (33:16):
That's true.

Speaker 1 (33:16):
That is true. Now there is a technical way the
Republicans could reverse this and no longer need a sixty
vote majority, but that means the Democrats would have the
right to do that when they got into power, on
any piece of legislation they ever hoped to pass. So

(33:38):
the Democrats are kind of human shielding the lockdown right now,
the shutdown, whatever the hell you're calling it. It's like,
it's such a story. I don't care about like I
care about the people who were affected. I just the
politics of this is so gross, guys. It's a continuing
resolution that the Democrats supported thirteen times in a row,

(33:58):
meaning thirteen times this exact bill we've shut down the
government over came up for a vote and the Democrats said, sure,
of course. Now the fourteenth time they're like, what kind
of country what pass a bill like this?

Speaker 7 (34:11):
Democrats are so full of crap.

Speaker 1 (34:13):
But to take it a step further, because I don't
want you to get mad at Democrats. I want you
to understand the Republicans vowed to cut spending, and what
they're attempting to pass right now is the Joe Biden
spending budget from the last four years. It's called a
continuing resolution. So anybody who gets on the radio and
tells you, ah, the Democrats, bah, sure, great, but don't

(34:35):
give the Republicans a free bee because they ain't trying
to cut spend it. I'm not okay. That's why I
don't get worked up about politics. That's why I don't
unfriend people who don't vote the way I do. That's
why you shouldn't. You know, when Trump's in power, everybody
gets so fired up because it feels like, you know,
it's like raging conflict because the Democrats are lying about them.
They're calling you a Nazi. I get it. You get mad,

(34:57):
but you also let your own party off the hook.
You know. You might have noticed this week Fox News
joined a lot of other military organizations excuse me news
organizations in withdrawing from the Pentagon coverage based on the
Pete Hegseth deal. If we'll give you the information, don't
go looking for it, just shut up and report what
we tell you. This is not actually acceptable. Pete Hegseth
has been on the show a dozen times. I like them.

(35:19):
I don't know what's behind the policy. You're allowed to
call balls to strike it. Does it make you a
rhino or a trader? It actually makes you this good
old fashioned thing called an American.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
From Everywhere USA. It's Fox Across America with Jimmy Bala.

Speaker 1 (35:39):
Jimmy, there's our guy, fired.

Speaker 3 (35:41):
Up for a big hour of Fox Across America.

Speaker 1 (35:43):
Caitlin Sinclair is coming by former Turning Point USA spokesperson.
Louisiana Senator John Kennedy is going to be in the
house as well. Hopefully it doesn't want to correct royalties
from all of those sound clips I play for them
on the show. But either way you slice it, you
are all so welcome to join this party in this
hour eight of eight seventy eight, nine to nine one zero.

(36:04):
You know the deal on the program, just talking about
the world. Nobody cares what you vote for or what
you identify as or what you're sexually attracted.

Speaker 3 (36:14):
I just I really know it doesn't matter.

Speaker 1 (36:16):
I don't care where you come from. I don't care
what color you are.

Speaker 4 (36:19):
I don't care how's much y'all.

Speaker 1 (36:20):
I don't care gun y'are, no, ma'am. We say it
every day to the point of exhaustion. Be a Republican,
be a Democrat, just don't be a bang. As we
roll along on a Thursday, funny one out of the gate,
Nancy Pelosi snapped on a reporter.

Speaker 7 (36:38):
Nancy Pelosi is a total ding beat.

Speaker 1 (36:41):
I'll tell you what's happening right now inside the Democrat Party,
and you'll understand why Pelosi snapping on reporters like you
saw Fetterman into a town hall last night where he
said Democrats are responsible for the shutdown. John Fetterman said
that on stage honesty. The RNC actually put out a
statement echoing those sentiments, saying like, oh yeah, give this

(37:04):
guy credit. He actually told the truth. Democrats were responsible
for the shutdown, okay, And when they did this, when
Chuck Schumer did this shutdown, when Nancy Pelosi did the shutdown,
the calculus was that this was going to be a
big win for them. Wrong. Okay, it's been a disaster
because what it's ultimately done, and I want you to

(37:25):
understand this is real. I'm just giving you straight up
the dirt. You remember the Motley Crue book, The dirt,
good old Motley Crue. They send girls, girls girls. Although
I think in the modern era it's them's them's. THEMS
doesn't have the same ring. Persons persons, persons not good.

Speaker 3 (37:43):
But stick with me.

Speaker 1 (37:46):
So you understand, the Democrats had subsidies to Obamacare that
they passed in twenty twenty one during COVID government to
spend another trillion dollars on Obamacare to keep the premiums lower.

Speaker 3 (38:02):
So what the Democrats are doing was forcing the government and.

Speaker 1 (38:04):
Your tax dollars to pay healthcare companies to subsidize the
cost of the people covered under Obamacare. Now, again, we
don't want to deny anybody care. But you see where
Obamacare is just a giant handout to the healthcare companies
and it's not an actual effort at controlling costs by
fostering competition and creativity that actually inspires people to innovate

(38:29):
and provide you with better health care at a cheaper cost.
Obamacare doesn't do that Obamacare does the opposite. They say, yeah,
just let the government pay for it. Some people can't
pay for it, they don't get it from their employer.
That's fine, let the government pay for them with everybody
else's tax dollars. And when the healthcare companies hear that
and they go, oh, wait, the government's just going to
pay for the people who can pay, well, let's raise
the rates. So there you go, and everybody raises the rates.

(38:57):
Everybody makes a lot of money. Oh this is amazing.
Come on man. It was the same thing with student
loan forgiveness. Student loan forgiveness did not get colleges to
wipe their hands of the debt and go, no, we
forgive it, no, no, no. All they did was take
all the debt pass it on to the taxpayer, so people,
through their taxes, would be paying for other people's student loans.
A bit of a scam. It's like getting a bill
in the mail from Applebee's for a plate of mazzarellisticks.

(39:19):
You didn't even get to eat. Well that's not cool,
that ain't right, okay, but that's essentially what it was.
So you understand what the Democrats did when they shut
down the government.

Speaker 11 (39:29):
Is.

Speaker 1 (39:29):
They tried to make the claim that Republicans were trying
to deny healthcare to little children and their families.

Speaker 3 (39:38):
Democrats are so full of crap.

Speaker 1 (39:40):
Okay, Republicans made a counter claim saying, actually, there's a
provision that we took out in the big beautiful bill
that was spending one point two trillion dollars for illegal
immigrant health care, which is actually true. But understand, the
longer the shutdown went on, the Democrats thought they were
going to win this by Republican shut down the government

(40:01):
because they don't want little kids they got a health care.
Nobody in their right mind believes that. No well properly
functioning brain thinks Republicans are evil and trying to get
kids killed. Okay, you know when the Democrats use that line,
the cruelty is the points and they all it's so
embarrassing because nobody believes it. But understand, just so we're

(40:26):
on the same page. This shutdown has now officially raged
on long enough that people have started to go, well,
what is this provision that we've shut the government down over,
And they come to see that within Obamacare, the taxpayer
was giving a good jillion dollar handout in this case,

(40:47):
trillions of dollars to health care companies. You were just
giving them more money. They were getting richer, they were
raising the rates. And I know there's people listening who go, hey,
without that subsidy, my family's plan would go to the moon. Damn.
I don't want that to happen. And Tia, I didn't
have health care for a long time, so I get it.
But what I'm saying is you fix the problem, not
by saying, hey, government keep spending money so they can

(41:09):
keep raising the rates. You go, No, let the free
market enter the conversation. Force these healthcare companies to compete
for your business. Guys, when you force people to buy
a product, remember Obamacare, you don't you buy healthcare, you
get fined. You're forcing them to buy a product. Think
about what the cost of pizza would be in your
hometown if everyone had to buy it by law, they

(41:33):
charged whatever the hell they wanted because you have to
buy it. That was what happened to healthcare. So this
calculus for the Democrats was a little bit off. And
now you've gotten Nancy Pelosi being asked about things like
January sixth, which she traditionally would know to be like, yeah, whatever,
who cares. But instead she turns around snaps on camera
and she tells the woman to shut up, and it's

(41:56):
really okay. We're gonna get there, and it's really funny stuff.
It's one second and we're gonna play for you in
a little bit when we do our little little headline Highway.
The new segment we added so Jimmy doesn't go nuts
on the radio because this is too there's too much
going on right now. But the point is they're snapping

(42:18):
because they're losing. They're not snapping because it's going so good.
They're just tired of all the victory parties. They're snapping
because they've looked at their internal pull numbers and and
a pretty to quote a guy who was set up
on a blonde day with Katie Porter. Let me give
you another clip though, as we work our way up
to this, and it's so funny. Okay, they got to

(42:42):
this place where, eh, they got to this place now
where Fetterment goes on stage last night and tells the
truth about the Obamacare subsidies and this is why the
pelosis of the world the snap and they got a
guy being honest on TV. Listen to this clip twenty eight.

Speaker 5 (43:05):
That's why shutting the government is really what the Democratic
Party wants to do. And I follow country, then party,
and it's the wrong thing for the country in a
period of chaos. I refuse to vote to shut our
government down. I absolutely would love to have I I

(43:25):
would love to have a conversation about extending the tax
credits for healthcare. Absolutely, But I would remind everybody too,
this was designed by the Democratic Party to expire at
the end of the year. This is not something taken
from by by the Republicans. That's they were designed to expire.

Speaker 3 (43:44):
Did you hear what he just said? They were designed
to expire.

Speaker 8 (43:51):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (43:52):
They Democrats wrote the subsidies in twenty twenty one knowing
there'd come a day when it expired and they'd be
able to politically say to the Republicans, hey give people
their healthcare, okay. And they thought the Republicans would be like, well, yeah,
I guess we don't want to get yelled at, so

(44:12):
we won't point out the obvious scam of these subsidies.

Speaker 3 (44:16):
Their scam.

Speaker 1 (44:17):
They were implemented under COVID, and they became a justification
for healthcare companies to jack your rates to the moon.
So if you want to know why Nancy Pelosi is snapping,
and you want to hear a snapping stick around, because
we're going to give you something called the truth when
we come back on the Big Band, one and only

(44:37):
Fox Across America, the.

Speaker 3 (44:39):
Show that's crashing the establishment Party.

Speaker 2 (44:42):
I don't recall seeing your name on the guest list.

Speaker 4 (44:45):
I think they'd be embarrassed about it. I sometimes go
by my midden.

Speaker 1 (44:48):
All right, both say Fox across America and we need
to race the clock across the country Mikey's headline Highwaymax.
Mikey has once again blessed us with five stories. I
love it, none of which involve women behind a paywall.

Speaker 3 (45:03):
That's good.

Speaker 1 (45:03):
Mikey progresses everywhere. Although I got to tell you some
of these stories are Dicey Pelosi is one of the stories.

Speaker 3 (45:10):
She's on the right side.

Speaker 1 (45:10):
Of the paywall. It's notop tips. So I don't know
if you saw this. Nancy Pelosi snapped on a reporter yesterday.
A reporter was asking her about like the January sixth
National Guard question and all that jazz, and traditionally Pelosi
will be like, shut up, you know, and she knows
to do that.

Speaker 3 (45:26):
But this was not that.

Speaker 1 (45:27):
Shut up. This was the you know, I know people
who could dump you in the Potomac right. Listen to
this Pelosi.

Speaker 12 (45:33):
Snap right here, Josh, Congressan Pelosi, are you at all
concerned that the new January sixth committee will find you
wiable for that?

Speaker 1 (45:40):
I am right here?

Speaker 13 (45:41):
Are you at all concerned about the new January sixth
committee finding you wiable for that day? Why did you
refuse the National Guard on January sixth?

Speaker 4 (45:51):
Shut up?

Speaker 1 (45:55):
Didn't send it. Why are you coming here with your
publican talking points as if you're as serious.

Speaker 3 (45:59):
Joy American people want to know, we still have questions.
Shut up? Does that sound like a stressed out Pelosi?

Speaker 14 (46:08):
That's a stress out Pelosi. Next thing you know, she's
gonna say, get off my.

Speaker 3 (46:11):
Log, get off my law. Josh.

Speaker 1 (46:13):
Did the market dip yesterday around four pm? Why is
she in that mood?

Speaker 15 (46:17):
I think it's doing its traditional bumpy road in October,
So I think she's very, very very cncy.

Speaker 1 (46:23):
Yeah, the day trading took a wrong turn yesterday, and
she knows about wrong turns from Paul's DUI. Mikey, do
you know Paul Pelosi's DUI in Malibu.

Speaker 3 (46:33):
He hit a sign, like a sign there was a
cop so.

Speaker 1 (46:37):
You know, Mikey, when you're coming down a hill on
the highway and the cop is parked behind the exit
sign so you can't see him because he's shooting radar.

Speaker 3 (46:44):
Paul Pelosi hit the sign and knocks it on top
of the cop.

Speaker 1 (46:48):
Can you plead not guilty to that? Or do you
just arrest yourself? Like do you get out and go, hey,
can I borrow your handcuffs? Hands up? Mikey, have you
ever been that drunk? Not that drunk a drive? I
know you were responsible with driving?

Speaker 4 (47:00):
No, because that drunk in general.

Speaker 1 (47:02):
Yeah, probably me, me and me and my me and
my U. You know, I don't want to name names,
but he might be our boss. We're at a radio
event once where we had to put Mikey in an
uber three quarters of the way through the night. And
you know, when you're putting a buddy in an uber
on your account. But we gave the driver one hundred
dollars and he goes, what's he going to do back there?
I'm my god only nos, he just drove away. Story

(47:29):
number four, speaking of giving people money, Curtis sleewa who
comes on the show a lot, says he got offered
ten million dollars to leave the New York City Mayor's race.

Speaker 3 (47:38):
I don't believe him.

Speaker 1 (47:39):
Like he comes on here, he's like, Noah, I didn't
want to do it. And now he says, the billionaires
want to kill me. This is why I don't want
to believe I believe him. Are you ready for this? Ye?
He said, powerful people want me out of this race.
They offered me ten million dollars. I said no, And
I now have private security in case the powerful people
kill me. All right, So if you take him at
his word, all of this is true except me and
you were walking to pick up Greek food the other day.

(48:00):
Who did we see all alone standing in the middle
of the street taking selfies with people? Curtis Leewan. So
unless his private security to protect him from the billionaires
are two fat, fifty two year old women.

Speaker 3 (48:12):
Named Dawn from Long Island, I don't know that he
has the security.

Speaker 1 (48:16):
So and once you lose that portion of the story, Josh,
doesn't it make the rest of it sound fugazy?

Speaker 15 (48:21):
I mean, he keeps insisting he's not on the prices, right,
he's not, and let's make a deal that he's just
trying to push his price higher. But this is just awkward.
I mean, look at where you're pulling manning things.

Speaker 1 (48:31):
But you know, maybe, Mikey, is it possible that the
two Middle Eastern dudes who come around with him and
tell me dirty sex jokes before he goes on the
air are actually trained security guards. We don't know yet.
Mike just want to get in trouble with the Guardian
angels in case he gets jumped on the subway.

Speaker 14 (48:47):
Well, that's the thing off, anyone who didn't need security
to be him.

Speaker 3 (48:50):
You would think he would, right, This doesn't really check
out to me.

Speaker 14 (48:53):
Even if he gets the ten million dollars, Mom, Donnie's
going to take fifty two percent of that, so he's
really only got.

Speaker 1 (48:59):
Really, if you want me to step out, you gotta
give you fifteen million. That's you're saying, Max, I love
it all right. Story number three, here we go, and
this is where it starts to get into Mikey terrain
shirtless priest caught with parishioners fiance underneath bathroom sink in
Unholy Discovery.

Speaker 3 (49:16):
Mikey, did you even read this whole story.

Speaker 5 (49:18):
I read most of it.

Speaker 3 (49:19):
Yeah, you didn't need to get to the end.

Speaker 16 (49:23):
I was.

Speaker 3 (49:24):
I'm not gonna blaspheme.

Speaker 1 (49:25):
I don't want to get into this, but it is
progress for the priest community because at least there's a
woman involved. Story number two, a dad asks his son's
prostitute to leave, and naturally, the sun responded by punching
his dad in the face.

Speaker 3 (49:43):
Now to this is a Florida story.

Speaker 1 (49:45):
It's probably not surprised, okay, but the kid had a
hooker over.

Speaker 3 (49:49):
The dad shows up Coral Springs, Florida.

Speaker 1 (49:51):
This rings so true, so far, so good and says like, hey,
you can't have a hooker, and the son's like, yes
I can, and they argue and the son punches the
dad in the face. Now, before we pass judgment on this,
you do need to know how much the hooker costs,
Josh No.

Speaker 15 (50:08):
I mean, yeah, if you go into it, he's day
drinking with the prostitute.

Speaker 1 (50:12):
Now.

Speaker 15 (50:12):
I don't know what others want to do with prostitutes,
but day drinking is not at the top of that list.
And if I'm the father, I walk in and go.
The meter's running, buddy.

Speaker 3 (50:26):
Time is money kids over here playing Jenga.

Speaker 1 (50:29):
You know, no, that doesn't work. I'm with the data
on this one. Max always be closing. Mikey, Mikey, when
you pay these girls to come over, do you play
games like this with them?

Speaker 3 (50:39):
You're usually done drinking.

Speaker 1 (50:41):
The day drinking part does sound like but he does.

Speaker 4 (50:44):
And here's the thing.

Speaker 14 (50:45):
If Mom Donnie wins, I mean this could become a
reality in New York right.

Speaker 1 (50:48):
Because he wants to legalize prostitute. So that's why you're
voting for him. I had no idea this whole time.
I'm like Mikey says, he likes Mom Donnie. Now it's clear.
Now the mask is off, the eyes wide shut mask
is off.

Speaker 3 (51:02):
I love that.

Speaker 1 (51:03):
Well, listen, it's a crazy story. But I get every
side of this. And you know, the Sun paid a
lot of money. There's a great line in The Sopranos
in the season finale. It's like, I think it's a
serious finale. Trump walks into AJ's room. He's hanging out
with a girl, and the guy goes.

Speaker 3 (51:17):
Dad, what do you do?

Speaker 1 (51:18):
I could have been doing something with that girl. And
Tony goes, but what what are you doing? Nothing? It's
like it's such a put down, and that's the dad, right, Josh,
exactly what were you doing?

Speaker 3 (51:27):
You I'm not gonna you know, I'm not a lowlife.

Speaker 1 (51:29):
I'm not gonna have a hooker in my house to
play cards, right, you know? So that's exactly what happened.
Final story, Are you ready for this one?

Speaker 4 (51:35):
Max?

Speaker 1 (51:36):
Sort of political? I never do this, but it's actually
actually very political. This is a Trump story. So the
trump Man, I don't know if you saw this, and
if this is true, I'm actually not happy, Max, And
I'll tell you why in a second. So apparently there's
a story, it's in our own reporting here at Fox,
that Trump is going to overhaul the IRS in an
effort to target left wing groups, including George Soros.

Speaker 3 (51:56):
Okay, and if you're a Republican, you're like, yes, gorel
screw them.

Speaker 1 (51:59):
But it's some point the Democrats get into power and
you know who gets audited for a fourth time? Jimmy Phli.

Speaker 3 (52:07):
Got audited. I got audited under Obama.

Speaker 1 (52:10):
I got audited under Biden and the greatest one, the
Biden audit. Josh, remember me telling you the story? The
guy goes, Wow, this is so crazy. I was just
watching you on TV a minute ago. Now we're on
the phone. I'm like, in what channel were you watching
me on? Out of curiosity? Oh, the one that criticizes Biden.
What are the odds? What a coincidence? So yeah, the
point is if Trump does this, we all think it's funny,

(52:30):
and maybe they break up a couple of left wing groups.

Speaker 3 (52:33):
But then I have to dig up a.

Speaker 1 (52:34):
Taxi gas receipt from two thousand and seven, you know,
four years from now otho, I'm getting fined.

Speaker 3 (52:40):
And that's how this ISCDS.

Speaker 1 (52:40):
It's a double edged sword.

Speaker 14 (52:41):
But at least it's better than Biden, you know, auditing
everyone who's spending over six hundred dollars.

Speaker 4 (52:45):
At a time. You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (52:47):
That everyone, every American?

Speaker 3 (52:49):
Do you remember that?

Speaker 1 (52:50):
But to bring it full circle, that's why the dads
shouldn't have been hit man at the kid.

Speaker 3 (52:54):
They didn't have to fill out a tax for him anymore,
you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (52:57):
I don't know Veno Transact just look at you For.

Speaker 3 (53:01):
Those types of ladies, I believe it's called then ho
good night, everybody. We made it.

Speaker 1 (53:06):
We've made it all the way down the Headline Highway
today without any production elements whatsoever. It's a nice thing
to to get the show. We're just here to give
you the story. You don't need the razzle dazzle on
the show, but don't go anywhere.

Speaker 3 (53:17):
Kaylen Sinclair is coming up.

Speaker 1 (53:19):
Louisiana Senator John Kennedy is coming up, assuming his publicist
didn't hear this previous segment. More radio. The Beat goes
on on the Big Bed, one and only Fox Across America.
Fox Across America with Jimmy Fayala just turned into a
morning show between commercial breaks thanks to some of the
witty asides. For my next guest, who is a superstar

(53:42):
political commentator, this is what she wrote down. I'm just
going to read it to you. Superstar political commentator. Men
swoon in her presence, women shake with jealous rage. Caitlyn
Sinclair her excellency, it says her ex I'm surprised you
went with her excellency.

Speaker 2 (53:58):
Ah.

Speaker 7 (53:58):
Yeah, I was just chatchepy too, like all of my qualities.

Speaker 1 (54:01):
And then she came out since you brought that up,
have you ever seen an article written about yourself by
a bot on the internet? Yes, like the first time
you see it, it's so.

Speaker 7 (54:09):
Funny, not funny when they think I'm thirty five.

Speaker 1 (54:12):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, give her credit.

Speaker 7 (54:14):
How do we correct that?

Speaker 1 (54:15):
Yeah? Come on, man, you should never make a woman
younger on the internet. I'm to stop it, stop it,
kayl You're so canceled there it is.

Speaker 3 (54:23):
He's done.

Speaker 1 (54:23):
You can't talk to a woman, like what's going on here?
But it's funny because what happens is those bought articles.
It's like in Albanian trying to steal your identity the
minute you see the English not work, you know, but
it's still sort of fun to read because they get
portions of you. Correct.

Speaker 13 (54:41):
Okay, so I had the age thing. Then I had
previously married. So my last boyfriend's family was like in
whot's like talking behind my back?

Speaker 7 (54:51):
Caitlyn isn't who.

Speaker 13 (54:52):
She says she is, She's been married. There was this
whole conspiracy going on. He finally confronts me. I'm like,
where did this come from? The Albania article one?

Speaker 1 (55:02):
And that's what happens. I was reading one. It was
funny because it was like Labor Day weekend on my
TV show, my Saturday night show, Jenny and Lincoln. Wrong.
I don't even know what we were doing. It was
like some dumb back to school whatever, but it was literally,
uh you know. The episode aired on a Saturday night. Sunday.
We were reading one of those like bot articles, and
he goes, he's notoriously secretive about whether he's married or

(55:23):
he has a child.

Speaker 3 (55:25):
It's unknown if he has any family at all.

Speaker 1 (55:28):
It's like, that's so good. But again, they got the
other things right, like my social Security number in my
you know, all that jazz. So he hits hits and
misses the government shut down. What does that mean to
Caitlyn Sinclair? You're just kind of milling around.

Speaker 7 (55:41):
I mean, there hasn't pigeons.

Speaker 13 (55:42):
There hasn't been pigeons around lately, so I don't know
if that thoughts related.

Speaker 3 (55:47):
Are you one of those birds? Aren't real people?

Speaker 7 (55:49):
No, I'm actually not that crazy yet.

Speaker 1 (55:51):
But come on, yeah, I could see that on you,
but you don't turn she does. She has a look
going on. It's like, this is the greatest thing about
the look? Okay, and I really do mean this, No, no,
it's a great it's fabulous look. It's half like you
look like a jet setter could be on like a
seven eighty seven Dreamliner. And then the other half, you

(56:12):
could be pushing a grocery cart, you know, the kind
of stand up grocery parts like Italian woes. Half. You
know what I mean, which is a vibe. I think
it makes you more approachable. I think in outfits like that,
you're more likely to meet guys in coffee shops who
want to know what's on your laptop.

Speaker 3 (56:25):
Do you care to elaborate now that I made that brilliant?

Speaker 12 (56:30):
Yes?

Speaker 13 (56:30):
Well, sometimes I listen to the news out loud. I'm
not a headphone person. I know the AirPods are killing us.
I can't do the wires, so I'm the obnoxious person,
like in.

Speaker 3 (56:41):
The coffee house. Are you in a coffee house?

Speaker 13 (56:43):
I was in a little bookstore that has a little
coffee shop on there, and it's open to like eight pm,
so it's great to get worked done.

Speaker 7 (56:51):
I'm playing your obnoxious voice.

Speaker 3 (56:54):
You don't need to do that.

Speaker 1 (56:54):
They don't even need to know that part, because it's
going to take you down a peg. You're on camera
right now. Everybody likes you. Don't tell them you're listening
to me at a bookstore. The point was. The point
was because this is what I want to discuss. Okay,
the gentleman who approached you expressed interest in the political narrative.
What percentage of it do you think was interested in
the political narrative? What percentage do you think was a

(57:15):
cheap excuse to approach you? Like he saw a window.

Speaker 7 (57:17):
Open, I don't.

Speaker 13 (57:19):
I don't know why the window was open because he
had headphones on himself. So the minute he took them off,
I got this energy like, oh, he wants me to
turn off the volume off? And then he leads with
can I ask what was that? So now I have
to tell him what I'm listening to? And then I
started asking him. He asked me if I'm voting in
the upcoming election. I'm like, yeah, who are you voting for?

(57:40):
Who do you support? And he's kind of looking at me,
trying to gauge my energy.

Speaker 1 (57:44):
And so it was one of those questions that answered
the question. This was not a genuine political curiosity.

Speaker 7 (57:51):
Like don't I don't even think he knew what is No,
That's that's the.

Speaker 1 (57:54):
Point, because when they're trying to read you, it means
this is not an innocent approach. It's just I've got
to figure out the correct answer here. And I think, yeah, I.

Speaker 7 (58:03):
Was wearing a turtle knock that day. I think I
just head behind it.

Speaker 1 (58:07):
Calen Sinclair is a whole new line of turtlenecks coming out.

Speaker 7 (58:09):
It's because I'm a thirty five year old divorce horse.
What do you mean?

Speaker 1 (58:13):
According to according to chat GPT, I am speaking with
retired OnlyFans.

Speaker 3 (58:19):
Model j me chat GP.

Speaker 1 (58:22):
I don't do any of this stuff, but I bring
this all up and because of the chat GETPT and
the bot thing, because there is this new adendum I
guess to the AI software that's going to now provide,
as one of the grock models does on Twitter, adults
with intimate conversation. So you are going to knowingly it's
the movie Her. I didn't even see it, but I

(58:43):
know that's what it's about. The guy falls in love
with the computer. But you're basically going to be doing
that now this.

Speaker 13 (58:49):
This is already a early troublesome time in society for
young men. Now are they ever leaving their parents' basement question?
So we have a whole j generation that is addicted
to watermelon, vapes, pornography, and now whatever the heck this
is going to be.

Speaker 1 (59:05):
Yeah, that's yeah. I was just gonna say that the
birth rate was already plummeting. If we don't take away
the Wi Fi password, there's never going to be childbirth
in this country.

Speaker 7 (59:14):
Okay, that's that's maha. So let's do it. Ban the
Wi Fi, ban the routers.

Speaker 1 (59:18):
So there's two ups. There's ups and downs here, okay,
and I do mean this. The down is that, like
we said, there aren't genuine guys approaching women at the
level you were approached that day. That's happening less often. Yeah, okay,
according to the data. But the other problem is the
guys who are approaching are the guys who watched too
much of those adult videos and literally think they might

(59:40):
get laid at the DMV. You know what I mean,
Like in.

Speaker 13 (59:42):
The video, like all I have to do is run
my errands and I'll figure out.

Speaker 1 (59:46):
I went from arguing with this clerk at the DMV
to she like took her top off.

Speaker 3 (59:50):
I sawted a thing, you know.

Speaker 13 (59:51):
So there is a lot of data right now, and
I'm curious about this. So they're saying that gen zers
are going to church more they aren't. Part already is more, Jimmy,
there's this entire sober movement happening for the younger generation.
But I wonder if jen z is just doing everything less,
if they are just having less fun. I mean, we're

(01:00:13):
talking about less partying, staying at home more.

Speaker 7 (01:00:16):
I don't know, they're getting into like.

Speaker 13 (01:00:17):
Gardening and eating healthy, which of course is great, but
the sober movement and just doing everything less.

Speaker 7 (01:00:25):
Are these people having fun anymore? Like they do? They
remember what it was like to stand on tables and
seek out of your house.

Speaker 1 (01:00:30):
And hell have fun.

Speaker 3 (01:00:32):
I know someone who does.

Speaker 1 (01:00:34):
Chachi told me Kayla Sainclaire's in the house. She's just
reading her own bio now written by an Albanian chatbot.
But yes, and I think that's part of the problem too, though.
I bet you the phone is it good and bad?
Good meaning you know, they play more defense because they're
scared to go out and do things that might get
caught on film. I think that, you know, the preponderance

(01:00:54):
of phones everywhere we go probably makes kids a little cautious.
But I alsot think bad because I think they see
a lot of things you're not supposed you know, do you.

Speaker 13 (01:01:02):
Think your average person is scared when you're that age
to just go out into the world.

Speaker 1 (01:01:09):
It really depends like, I'll give you this Lincoln, my
son of sixteen. He doesn't have any older siblings. So
if you don't have older siblings and you don't like
mimic their behavior, you kind of grow up slower. Like
I was the youngest of four, so by the time
I was sixteen, I was trying to quit drinking, Like
I was doing dry January in ninth grade to see
if I can pull it off. So I think it
really does come down to your environment. And I think

(01:01:30):
everyone's environment in their phone is probably unique, but it's
probably in a weird way. You don't process the significance
of anything, you know, because it's just a video before
a video. Think about now, we've bought a lot of
drug boats right now, which may be a good thing
because the cartels aren't doing us any favors. But you
still just watch a boat get drone struck from space. Go, well,

(01:01:51):
look at that, and then you put on a dancing
with the star's routine from Hilario Bolt.

Speaker 7 (01:01:55):
Yeah, casual.

Speaker 13 (01:01:56):
I think the one thing Jimmy and you and I
have discussed this in the past. You take this younger
generation and they've grown up with social media, with everything
being so heavily photoshopped, heavily curated, and they almost are
immediately able to see through phony personas like some of
our politicians, and they pick up on those nuances more

(01:02:20):
than I think someone in my mom's generation, for example.

Speaker 1 (01:02:22):
That's a good point. So when it comes to like authenticity,
they probably see.

Speaker 7 (01:02:26):
Radar, yes right way is.

Speaker 1 (01:02:29):
People older like you just said, don't because they're not
tuned into those tells exactly.

Speaker 13 (01:02:35):
So like a mister Zoram and Domi, for example, those
little smirky smiles that he throws every two seconds when
he's saying the craziest things to someone like my mom. Oh,
like that's he has swag or he has personality.

Speaker 7 (01:02:51):
He's a charming young man.

Speaker 13 (01:02:53):
But I think to some of the smarter gen zers
out there that again have grown up in this world, they.

Speaker 7 (01:02:58):
See right through it.

Speaker 1 (01:02:59):
Yeah, talking to Kaylens and Clash, she ain't having it.
Let me give you some mom, Donnie. He sits down
with Martha McCallum. Yesterday, Bella the ball. You know what
I'm saying, Like Marth is the pride of the fleet.
She crushed, he was great, and here she is, you know,
to the Hamas question, he doesn't want to answer things directly,
you know. So she's like, you don't need to hear this,
You've read about it, You've heard it, and it's you know,

(01:03:20):
should Hamas get rid of their arms? And he's like,
you know, if a train leaves Chicago, you know, he
starts to hear like the.

Speaker 3 (01:03:27):
Slight of hand.

Speaker 1 (01:03:28):
Then you're telling me, maybe the kids pick up on this.
Let me play for the radio folks. Clip eighteen.

Speaker 11 (01:03:32):
Do you believe that Hamas should lay down their weapons
and leave the leadership in Gaza?

Speaker 6 (01:03:38):
I believe that any future here in New York City
is one that we have to make sure that's affordable
for all and as it pertains to Israel and Palestine, but.

Speaker 1 (01:03:45):
We have to ensure that there's peace and that is
the future that.

Speaker 11 (01:03:47):
We can I just jump in, but you won't say
that Hamas should lay down there.

Speaker 1 (01:03:51):
I stop right there. The question is and I'll get
to the rest of his answer. But she goes, do
you think Hamas should lay down their arms? His answer is,
I think when it comes to New York City, it
needs to be affordable.

Speaker 13 (01:04:02):
But again, Jimmy, he did it with a smile on
his face. He did it with this like little smirky
car salesman during my lunch break vibe like yeah, I
just ripped that person off. I'm gonna enjoy my tuna
sandwich here. Like that was the complete aura of that
question that he.

Speaker 7 (01:04:20):
Did not answer.

Speaker 13 (01:04:21):
And she did an amazing job. She probed him, She
stayed serious. There was no smirking from our Martha. But
he found a way to just secure it around all
of these answers. And I'm really concerned for the Jewish
people in York that notoriously vote Democrat. This was my
biggest takeaway from yesterday's interview. This man is running as

(01:04:44):
a Democrat if you actually look at his policies, and
we have more interviews like this and the debate happening tonight,
this is not a Democrat. How did the party actually
allow this man to run as a Democrat?

Speaker 1 (01:04:58):
Oh well, there's a thing of a lot of them
didn't want him to succeed, so they didn't endorse him
in the primaries. But now that he has their doing
the whole well, it wins. I guess it's cool, you know.
And what it really speaks to, because you're making a
good point, is there is no actual principle in the
party other than if it wins then yeah, of course
we love this guy, you know, because I'm going to play.

(01:05:19):
When AOC clip, AOC was asked about Democrat leaders and
whether they should endorse Mom Donnie, this is peak AOC
clip twenty five.

Speaker 16 (01:05:26):
You endorsed do Ronimond Domni in New York City mayoral race.
The several prominent Democrats, including Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer
and House Minority Leader Hakim Jeffries, have not yet endorsed him.
What do you believe this says about the current divide
between the progressive and establishment wings different? And what effect
do you think this has on party?

Speaker 1 (01:05:43):
One question?

Speaker 11 (01:05:45):
Well, I mean I have stated this for quite some time,
which is that Democrats have primaries for a reason. We
may have our differences amongst one another within the party,
be more conservative, some may be more liberal, or any
other number of differences. That's what we have primaries for.

(01:06:07):
I believe in endorsing the nominee of the party after
a primary has resolved itself.

Speaker 1 (01:06:15):
So she's saying that, well he won the primary. Sorry,
that is some boring aos.

Speaker 7 (01:06:20):
What was that this.

Speaker 13 (01:06:21):
Was a certain so good at just saying words home,
I need to get better at that.

Speaker 1 (01:06:25):
Primaries happen for a region.

Speaker 7 (01:06:27):
So what was the answer.

Speaker 1 (01:06:28):
The answer is sort of that you're supposed to endorse
the nominee of the party after the primary. So the
primary is over, he won, You're supposed to endorse him
even though less than thirteen percent of voters turned out.
You're supposed to go all in. And she gives a
little more, let me give it to me, Josh Clip
twenty six.

Speaker 11 (01:06:45):
I do worry about the example it sets when our
leaders do not support the party nominee, because in the
future we will need we will need folks to rally
behind the presidential nominee. And if that nominee is more
moderate or nominee is more progressive, and we're setting the

(01:07:06):
precedent of not endorsing the nominee unless we agree with them,
I worry about what example.

Speaker 7 (01:07:13):
That that sets.

Speaker 1 (01:07:14):
I'm going to quote my son Lincoln.

Speaker 3 (01:07:16):
AOC is a dope.

Speaker 1 (01:07:18):
I mean.

Speaker 3 (01:07:19):
Because what you made the great point.

Speaker 1 (01:07:21):
While AOC was talking, Caitlin goes, you know, in the future,
the nominee, if it's her, that's the thing's about.

Speaker 13 (01:07:27):
That's what she was referring to. This is all about her,
that that sound bite was all about her. But I
don't I'm actually curious. I do not think this is
setting a precedent because say he had all of the endorsements.

Speaker 7 (01:07:38):
The Democrat Party has been so lost.

Speaker 13 (01:07:40):
They still have no real leader, they still have no
real messaging.

Speaker 7 (01:07:44):
So support or not support.

Speaker 13 (01:07:45):
I think the people here in New York that are
actually starting to peel back the curtain on some of
these policies are waking up. And again, I have so
many Jewish friends, and it really pains me that some
of my friends. Of course they're not really following politics.
You're person is not, but they're still doing the whole
Oh I don't get involved, or oh I'm not political.

(01:08:06):
And these are my Jewish friends. So my message really
to anyone in this city that that notoriously votes blue,
or that is part of the Jewish community that doesn't
paying attention to politics, this is the wrong race to ignore.

Speaker 1 (01:08:18):
Thank you.

Speaker 7 (01:08:19):
We do not care if you hate the government.

Speaker 13 (01:08:21):
We do not care. If you hate Donald Trump. I
don't care if you support Pales Signe. If you think
that you deserve all of this free stuff, huh, do
your research. Do your research, because this is not the
race to ignore.

Speaker 1 (01:08:32):
So guys at coffee houses who approach Kaitlyn Sinclair when
she's playing her laptop too loud, tell her you're voting sliwa.

Speaker 7 (01:08:41):
Just wear the red bar and all your.

Speaker 1 (01:08:42):
Coffee to yourself back after this.

Speaker 3 (01:08:46):
The show that connects you to people in high places.
It's like the most important man in the world.

Speaker 1 (01:08:52):
There cons the Caitlyn Sinclair and all the marchers in
Mikey's Babe Parade. It is Fox Across America with Jimmy
Faylo Louisiana Senator John Kennedy coming up in the next hour.
That's a big damn deal. I want to play you
one more clip from the CN in town Hall last
night involving Bernie Sanders. Who I mean, come on, can

(01:09:15):
we be honest for a second about Bernie Sanders. This
guy's a serious as Bernie Sanders is now down to
saying if the shutdown ends the way Trump wants it to,
people will die. He is so fullish nine.

Speaker 17 (01:09:31):
We're gonna do everything that we can to bring an
end to this terrible shutdown, which is hurting you, and
which is hurting a million federal employees and millions of
people who use federal services. But also we have got
to be cognizant that if Trump wins this fight, our

(01:09:51):
healthcare system could well collapse and tens of thousands of
people could die every single year.

Speaker 4 (01:10:00):
Do you think Trump could win this fight?

Speaker 1 (01:10:02):
No, we're gonna win it.

Speaker 17 (01:10:03):
But it's not I don't want to look at it
like a political fight. We're gonna win it because the
American people are on outside.

Speaker 1 (01:10:09):
Millions of people will die every year. What you just
said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I
have ever heard. Everyone in this room is now dumber
for having listened to it. Guys, healthcare and health coverage
and two different things. It's illegal for them not to
treat you in the hospital, so nobody dies. The issue

(01:10:32):
here is financial, and yes, we do need to open
up the marketplace foster competition that will drive down the
cost of healthcare. But the Trump position is not.

Speaker 3 (01:10:42):
I want to kill people.

Speaker 1 (01:10:44):
Do you understand why it's so hard to have a
conversation because there's a lot of stupid people. Stupid people
who hear Bernie and go, oh Trump wants to kill people,
And then there's a lot of smart people who should
know better, who just want some moral superiority because they
hate themselves. So Bernie telling them that Trump's gonna kill
people allows them to feel better. Well, at least I
didn't both of the guy wants to kill people. Ah,

(01:11:06):
there you go. That's what they're doing. This is what
you're watching, the psychological and emotional failings of broken white people.

Speaker 3 (01:11:15):
From embry Where USA.

Speaker 2 (01:11:18):
It's Fox Across America with Jimmy Fayala Boom.

Speaker 3 (01:11:21):
Back at Action. Hot damn.

Speaker 1 (01:11:23):
We are fired up for this hour of Fox Across America.
Why Jimmy, Why, what's the big idea? Why you're so excited?
It's because Louisiana Senator John Kennedy is stopping by. He's
got a new book out, he's got a little free
time on his hands thanks to the government shutdown, and
he adds a legitimate case to sue us for royalties

(01:11:44):
because we play a lot of his sound bites on
this show, especially when we're talking about I don't know
the Democrat Party.

Speaker 4 (01:11:53):
Life is hard, but it's harder when you're stupid.

Speaker 1 (01:11:56):
Well, in this hour, we'll go toe to toe with
John Kennedy, funniest guy in the Senate. I've never met him,
but I am an admirer from Afar. Oftentimes, when I'm
on Sean Hannity's TV show, I'm watching John Kennedy before
me when I'm sitting in the pot in front of
the camera, and I'm usually cracking up so selfishly, this
is a really exciting day for me, But I don't

(01:12:17):
doubt it's a big win for you just the same.
Why because you got a straight shooter to talk to.
In politics, everybody does so much filibustering. Now, like did
you see Mom Donnie with Martha McCallum yesterday? That was
square dancing. It was just like, here's a what do
you think Hamas should do? Should we disarm Hamas? Well?

Speaker 3 (01:12:36):
We just want New York City to be affordable.

Speaker 1 (01:12:38):
That was the answer. That's what he actually said in
response to you.

Speaker 3 (01:12:42):
Don't change the subject, just answer the question.

Speaker 1 (01:12:45):
Oh no, he changed the subject. He didn't want to
answer the question. And that's so much of politics. And
one of the reasons, I'll tell you this where I
straight out is for real, one of the reasons Trump
is winning, one of the reasons John Kennedy so popular,
and I do mean this about myself, one of the
reasons this show is doing so well, not being arrogant. Okay.
I get on the air every day and say my
superpower is the fact that I don't have one. I

(01:13:08):
get on the air every day and say, like, hey,
I went to like community college, I drove a taxi.
I'm not the smartest guy in this conversation. How many
times have you guys emailed me a correction in the
last five years? Maybe a thousand? Okay, I'm just being
honest with you. Sometimes it's just nice to be able
to relax and trust what you're listening to as a
bargaining with you in good faith source of information. That's

(01:13:32):
all you want. Nobody's gonna be perfect. We didn't need
these carefully curated soundbites that politicians were distilling for the
last one hundred and fifty years till Trump came down
the escalator and was like, Mexico is sending drug dealers
and rapists, and the rest I assume are good people,
and the rest I assume are good people. It's like

(01:13:54):
funny in a way that doesn't quite make sense, but
it's kind of funny, you know. But Trump is maybe
conversationally flawed when it comes to the fact that he
throws a lot of wild pitches. I used to say
in Trump won that sometimes he tweeted such psychotic things
that it almost seems strategic. Like do you remember in
the movie Bull Durham when Kevin Costner character Crash Davis tells, uh, ePIE,

(01:14:20):
Calvin nuke lalush. The Timothy Robbins character the catcher comes
out to the pitcher at the mound and goes, do
me a favor, hit the mascot with your next fastball,
because real wind up throw ninety eight and hit the mascot.

Speaker 3 (01:14:33):
What the hell did I know right now?

Speaker 1 (01:14:34):
So he looks at him's like, I'm throwing a fastball
and hitting the mascot. He's like you no, no, I'll do
it because it's gonna make them nervous. They're gonna be uncomfortable,
they're gonna be unorthodox, they're not gonna know how to
dig in. And sometimes I used to think that was
Trump's twitter stop, because once in a while it'd be
like things would be running good and he would just
tweet Mika Brazenski showed up at my house badly bleeding

(01:14:55):
from a face left. When the exactly You're like, wait
what and now the news second was like, oh, that's
kind of crass. Then a president talks that way and
it's nuts. But the point is it was so unorthodox
that it made him hard to fight because he was
unconventional in a lot of ways. If you were to
take it further in sports, he's like Andrew Galatta. There

(01:15:17):
was a Polish fighter, Andrew Galotta, who's a pretty good heavyweight,
but he got disqualified from a lot of fights because
he'd head butt you. He'd punch you in the nuts,
hit you in the back of the head, all the
things you're not supposed to do when you come to
the center of the ring and new and Mills Lane
is like, don't do this, this, and this. Well, Andrew
Galatta would immediately do all of it right, you get disqualified.

(01:15:39):
But that's Trump. He does a lot of unconventional things.
Charlemagne brought it up earlier in the week. I want
to play it for you one more time because it
really does set up the conversation we're going to have
with Senator Kennedy really well. Because the thing about Senator
Kennedy is he's often telling you jokes that might be
a real cutting down of who he's making fun of,

(01:16:00):
but jokes only work, okay. Punchlines only work if the
setup is true, correct the mundo. Okay, If the setup
is true, people agree with your logic, they'll laugh at
the punchline. But if you say something not true, oftentimes
they're not gonna laugh at the punchline. Say the moon
is made of cheese. Okay, and now you have a punchline.

(01:16:23):
You know, if the punchline is not about you being wrong,
then the joke isn't gonna work. But if the punchline's like,
it's made of cheese, and here's a joke to go
with it, half the room goes, Wait, but it's not
made of cheese. Why did he? Why are we laughing
at them? That's comedy. There's a logic behind every joke.
You know. They say this like every joke is based
on some kind of a truth. But here is Charlamagne
talking about the unorthodox style of communicating and how Trump

(01:16:45):
killed the traditional language of politics. Clip sixteen. Donald Trump
shows me what's politically possible.

Speaker 8 (01:16:52):
Trump shows me what presidents can do if they want
to do it. Donald Trump shows me what can be
said if you are willing to say it. It's not
about what can be done. It's about who has the
political will to do it. I don't want to hear
a peep from Democrats about nothing until they get the
balls to say what's really on their mind in regards
to this country, in this world. Trump doesn't care if
it sounds ridiculous. Trump doesn't care if it makes sense.

(01:17:13):
It's no political correctness whatsoever. As I've been saying for years,
the language of politics is dead and Donald Trump killed it.

Speaker 1 (01:17:22):
Bang listen to Charletmagne, but he's telling you the truth.
Trump's superpower and this is where he has helped the world.
As we were putting a greater emphasis on what you
said than what you did. And it's really dangerous. Okay.
I wrote a New York Times bestselling book. It's called
Cancel Culture Dictionary, and the whole point of the book

(01:17:45):
was that we were retraining society to become kind of
like virtue cops. Get out of bed in the morning,
find us something that's wrong that's unjust pointed out, and
we'll all tweet till that person's fired. Oh that comedian's jokes.
He should be punching up. Comedians should never be punching down. No, no, no,

(01:18:06):
they should just be punching funny. Okay, Don Rickles punched
in every direction. He looked out into the crowd, made
fun of everybody there. Some of them are rich, some
of them were poor. That wasn't the point. The point
was laughter. And we started to create this culture where
what you said carried more weight than what you did.
And it was problematic because again, we were like firing

(01:18:28):
comedians for jokes they told at comedy shows. We weren't
even ant. Wait, this guy said what at the Des
Moines Funny Bone, and like, what were you there? Did
you like it? Up? Said you again, No, no, I was.
I just watched it on the internet an hour ago.
I was on the toilet before I got in the
shower in the morning. And yeah, apparently people are mad

(01:18:49):
about this, So I'm gonna get mad too, and I'll
get a bunch of likes and the guy will get fired.
It'll be great. We'll all feel like we did something headless.
World coming that would happen. Okay, When we started to
focus on what people said, we created this era of slacktivism,
not activism. Slacktivism you go after superficial things, get them canceled,

(01:19:11):
and walk away feeling like you delivered some type of
substantive betterment to society.

Speaker 3 (01:19:18):
Not even close.

Speaker 1 (01:19:19):
Think about Native American mascots for a minute. Native American mascots. Okay,
Native Americans have the shortest life expectancy in America. They
have the highest rates of heart disease and literacy, and
the largest percentage of a population living beneath the poverty line.
Native Americans. Now, when you go out and you whack
the Washington Redskins, something Native Americans had donated to the NFL,

(01:19:39):
mind you, so we're all on the same page. They
liked the redskins. They wanted the representation, and it wasn't
about mocking a skin color. A redskin was a brave
who was given the highest honor in battle, which is
to paint your face red and lead the tribe onto
the war field. That's what a red skin was. So understand,
woke white people showed up and we're like, I'm here
to help the Are you doing anything about the heart disease? No,

(01:20:02):
the poverty, no, the literacy, no, the diabetes, no, the alcoholism, no,
the life expectancy. No, We're gonna change the halftime show.

Speaker 3 (01:20:10):
It's what we're gonna do.

Speaker 1 (01:20:11):
I mean, come on, man, and you understand it was
not activism. It was slacktivism. And when you made the
change to the Redskins name, society moved on as if
we had delivered some type of progress on behalf of
Native Americans. Like we accept you guys can all do
better now you're fine, Like play the throne room from

(01:20:32):
the end of Star Wars and give everybody a metal
who changed the halftime show? Okay, slacktivism tearing down statues.
What is a tearing down a statue of a two
hundred year old guy do for a community? Does it
improve test scores, lower crime rates, make housing more for
of course not so. If you don't like what the
guy stood for, put a plack up next to the statue,

(01:20:53):
reminding them that while at the time he was popular,
today it's a little controversial because I promise you you
don't change the quality of anybody's life by changing what
a pigeon takes a dump on in the park. Okay,
that's what a statue is. Ninety percent of a statue
contribution to society is being a BUCkies for pigeons, cleanest

(01:21:14):
rest rooms on the highway, Come on down, except the
statue isn't going to show sell you a chocolate covered
grit and a Santa onesie where you have a beaverhead
like the one we got BUCkies.

Speaker 3 (01:21:24):
But the point is that was dangerous. Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:21:27):
Think of the era of cancel culture and outrage culture
and saying the wrong thing meant you gone. And it's
not to say there shouldn't be consequences for speech. If
you say something horrible and a corporation doesn't want to
be associated with the backlash, they have every right to
fire you. That's not violating your First Amendment rights like
so many people got wrong.

Speaker 3 (01:21:45):
People were say.

Speaker 1 (01:21:46):
It's a First amo It's not a First Amendment thing. Okay.
The First Amendment does not protect you from the company
you represent getting manned. It protects you from the government
throwing you in jail. That is the first Amendment. So
to get that out of the way. The second biggest
problem there is when you really make conversation the focus
of everyone's ire, oftentimes you overlook action. I was telling

(01:22:09):
you this about Kanye West. Kanye West tweets insane things.
He gets high, eats a couple of percocets, and they
do interviews and he's like, Oh, this will be fun,
We'll have Kanye on. He starts praising Hitler and telling
you who he wants to kill, and it's unacceptable, And
of course companies are going to distance himself from him
and they're not gonna want him around anymore. So Kanye
West is banned from going to the Grammys, okay because
of his speech. But Chris Brown beat up Rihanna so

(01:22:31):
bad she had to be hospitalized. He was arrested, and
guess what he did a year later He went to
the Grammys and won a Grammy, Like, dude, do you
not get the what you do has to be a
little more important than what you say. It's not the same.
Speech shouldn't have consequence, as I said. But that's where
Trump coming along has really changed the compass in America

(01:22:53):
because Trump says all the things politicians would traditionally get
fired for. But people don't care anymore because they're so
sick of politicians who say the right thing and do
the wrong thing that they'd rather have a guy who
talks crass and gets the hostages back from Israel than
a guy who doesn't want to press for a ceasefire
because half his party supports himas and he doesn't want

(01:23:13):
to lose the vote at the Ivy League college kids. Okay,
Biden will say the right things if he can get
through the teleprompter in one try. But is he doing
any of the right things. Of course not. They let
twenty one million people across the border illegally. Five hundred
thousand kids got sex trafficked. Okay, three hundred thousand peoples
dot a fen Okay, that's not the right thing. The
guy cleaning it up might say some of the wrong things,

(01:23:34):
but if he's doing the right thing, it's the only
thing you should focus on.

Speaker 3 (01:23:38):
Bang there it is Fox across America.

Speaker 1 (01:23:40):
But Jimmy Falo one segment away from Louisiana Senator John
Kennedy his new book, How to Test Negative for Stupid
and Why Washington Never Will.

Speaker 9 (01:23:50):
Country is being destroyed by stupid people, by very stupid people.

Speaker 1 (01:23:54):
I mean, well, the good news right now is those
stupid people aren't spending any extra money because the government's closed.
The bad news is when the government reopens, they have
to spend all of that money with additional interest, so
your tax dollars.

Speaker 6 (01:24:06):
Go up, thanks big government witnesses.

Speaker 1 (01:24:08):
It is a crazy time in politics. Man, it's not
the craziest time. Okay. There's been wild upheaval in society
in the sixties and the civil rights and the Vietnam
era and all that, you know, insanity that's gone on.
But the point is in the modern moment, in the
modern moment we live in, you now have this new
thing called social media where everybody is just an influencer

(01:24:31):
with a side hustle in Congress, and that's what's really
changed the game dramatically for me is I now watch
these people a lot more than I used to, and
you start to see things that you can unsee. You
go like, oh, this guy's a scam. One of them
is Obama. This is this sucks for me. I want

(01:24:51):
to tell you this. You know when you have that moment, okay,
your whole life, you hear your dad say like shut
the door, you know, the heat, and then one day
you yell at your kid, you go shut the door
that heats on, and you go, oh my god, I
just crossed that threshold. I'm now on the other side
of that exchange. Okay. The hardest one for me, as

(01:25:13):
a guy who covers politics for a living is Barack
Obama because when Obama was running for president. I was
a cab driver when Obama was running for reelection. I
was a cab driver, Okay, So I was the guy
listening to radio hosts criticize this man. So I hate
when I have to get on the radio and do
it myself because I feel like I've hit that moment

(01:25:33):
of you know, shut the door, the heats on, you know,
and that's what happens with somebody like Barack Obama. Okay,
but stick with me because he might not like what
I'm about to tell you. Obama is a just a
shameless race baiting grifter. A shameless race baiting grifter. Why
do I say that to you? And I don't want

(01:25:53):
to get you worked up and manned Obama? But here
I am, all these years later, from Cabby to the
guy on the radio and the TV being like freaking Obama.

Speaker 3 (01:26:01):
I can't believe this guy.

Speaker 1 (01:26:02):
I don't see you doing any better in the booty department. Fine,
but if you remember, during a twenty twenty four election,
Obama famously famously chided chided black men at an event
for not supporting the black woman. Hey, hey, hey, I
don't want to hear about the brothers not turning out
for a sister. You gotta vote for Kamala because she's black.

(01:26:26):
Do you remember this? It was in It was actually
in early September of twenty twenty four. I don't want
to hear about the brothers not turning out to Vogue.
We got a sister on the ballot. You got to
vote for the sister. You're like, WHOA, all right? It
sounds like identity politics. Doesn't sound merit based, it's not ideal.
But what actually makes it worse is Barack Obama just
cut two advertisements for Abbigail Spanberger and she's running against

(01:26:50):
a black woman win.

Speaker 3 (01:26:52):
Some seers, what a fraud.

Speaker 1 (01:26:55):
So in September, it was you better vote for the
black lady. You gotta vote you're black. You've oh for
the black lady. That's how it work. Black got black lady.
You don't have a choice here. You vote for the
That's how it works.

Speaker 15 (01:27:07):
You have a problem figuring out whether you're for me
or Trump, and you ain't black.

Speaker 3 (01:27:11):
That was Obama too.

Speaker 1 (01:27:12):
You have a problem figuring out if it's for Kamala
or Trump, then you ain't black. Of course, you've overcome it.
If a black lady's on the ballot, black men have
to vote for her, Well, Obama, a black man just
endorsed the white lady, Abigail Spamberger, who won't denounce Jay Jones,
the guy who's the Attorney general candidate who got caught
in a text exchange fantasizing about putting two bullets in

(01:27:34):
his opponent's head and killing his kids, saying, the only
way these people will ever move on policy is if
they feel pain. He said that, I mean, dude, garbage
like you just makes me sick. And you've all heard
the winsome sears back and forth where she can't get
a response out of her, Abigail Spamberger, white lady. Not
that it matters, the behavior matters, the qualifications matter. But

(01:27:57):
the point is Obama, who was out there saying you
got vote for the black lady, now out there in
the same breath saying you gotta vote for the white lady.

Speaker 3 (01:28:07):
I mean, I'm sick.

Speaker 1 (01:28:10):
You know you gotta vote for guys, the person you
think can do the job. And you don't have to
vote for the person the media plays up as a
hot new sensation. You don't have to vote for the
guy who has that hot topic. Presidency that yes, we
can hope and change presidency of Obama, because what that
ultimately creates is a media that's reluctant to criticize the

(01:28:31):
popular guy for fear that they're going to alienate you
and use lose viewership. So that air quote popular guy
gets to send fifty billion dollars to a RAN and
embolden the biggest state sponsor of terrorism in the world.
And oh, by the way, nuke our healthcare system. That's
how effective Obama was as a president. Sixteen years later
and the government shut down because of his healthcare policy.

(01:28:54):
Think about the insanity of that, ella And this is
a big damn dar Joining us now on the show
a maten voyage for a superstar senator from the great
State of Louisiana, author of the new book How To
Test Negative for Stupid, A man far too classy for
this program, but his publicis put him up to it.

Speaker 3 (01:29:13):
Say hello to Senator John Kennedy. Hello, sir.

Speaker 4 (01:29:17):
Jimmy, how are you man?

Speaker 3 (01:29:19):
This is a big deal for me. I want you
to know this.

Speaker 4 (01:29:21):
Well, thank you for having me. It's my honor to
be here.

Speaker 1 (01:29:26):
Well, I will tell you that here on the SEC.

Speaker 4 (01:29:28):
Had nothing else to do.

Speaker 1 (01:29:31):
You could have hosted the show today.

Speaker 3 (01:29:34):
I could have took off.

Speaker 12 (01:29:35):
I got all the time you need, man, I got
days weeks.

Speaker 1 (01:29:40):
They brought you on to talk book. I could have
talked to you about Elvis the moon landing. We could
have got somewhere.

Speaker 4 (01:29:46):
We can read the Bible to each other.

Speaker 1 (01:29:48):
Well we may, so let me throw one piece of
high praise at you. When we were putting the rundown
together today. One of my overseers here at Fox. You know,
I do this show in a shock collar, so if
I go off the rail, you get like three thousand
vaults in the neck, and you you know, the only
that's the only way Sean Hannity will have me on
a show.

Speaker 3 (01:30:07):
He lets you do whatever you want. I get zapped.

Speaker 1 (01:30:11):
But we're sitting here, we're prepping the show, and someone
said to me, you know, Senator Kennedy funniest man in
the Senate, which I agree with, but I have to
cavea on it because being the funniest guy in the
Senate is like being the hottest girl on the view,
is it not?

Speaker 12 (01:30:26):
Sir?

Speaker 4 (01:30:28):
Oh you said that. I didn't Jimmy, but it was
a good one.

Speaker 15 (01:30:33):
Man.

Speaker 1 (01:30:33):
I'll take it so talking about things people say because
I want to get to the book. Are you following
your prolific success on TikTok? I have a sixteen year
old son, and you have become like a like a
TikTok superstar, like you might as well be a rapper.
I don't know how to describe you, but you're massive
in all of these other communities. Are you taking stock
at any of that? And there's a reason I I.

Speaker 4 (01:30:56):
Can't use TikTok. They won't let me.

Speaker 12 (01:30:59):
The Senate won't let me let me use it because
we passed the bill at calling it now. The President,
I think, is negotiating something with with my dancy almost
from TikTok, but I had it on my on my
iPad and they made me take it off.

Speaker 3 (01:31:22):
I love this.

Speaker 1 (01:31:22):
If you're listening on the radio, Louisiana Senator John Kennedy's
on the line jokingly calling someone a Nazi, which I
only want to point out because if I don't say
you're joking, they'll think I'm interviewing a Democrat.

Speaker 4 (01:31:33):
Yeah, I understand, man, I understand.

Speaker 17 (01:31:36):
Well.

Speaker 3 (01:31:36):
The TikTok kids love you.

Speaker 1 (01:31:38):
And the reason I mentioned this is because you may
or may not know this, but on this show, which
is heard on about two hundred radio stations across the country,
we happen to play a lot of sound clips that
might sound familiar to you.

Speaker 3 (01:31:49):
Can I play one of them for you?

Speaker 1 (01:31:51):
Sure? Just one?

Speaker 3 (01:31:52):
Okay, here you go.

Speaker 1 (01:31:52):
Since a big debate right now, as we have Mom
Donnie running for mayor, uh, here is a constant discussion
for us revolve around supporting the police.

Speaker 3 (01:32:01):
You might be familiar with this one.

Speaker 1 (01:32:03):
Look if you.

Speaker 12 (01:32:03):
Hate cops just because of the cops, the next time
you get in trouble, call crackhead.

Speaker 1 (01:32:09):
Did you catch that I cut a commercial?

Speaker 4 (01:32:12):
What in my reelection?

Speaker 12 (01:32:14):
I've got in so much trouble, Jimmy, everybody hated it.

Speaker 4 (01:32:17):
Accept the voters.

Speaker 3 (01:32:19):
Boom, that's what's up.

Speaker 1 (01:32:20):
So the question was, since you got us here, do
we owe you royalties for this?

Speaker 16 (01:32:27):
No?

Speaker 4 (01:32:27):
Man, not you, not you.

Speaker 12 (01:32:29):
I'm honored that you would play it.

Speaker 3 (01:32:32):
Oh well, that's that's a big deal.

Speaker 1 (01:32:34):
If if you'll give me a minute, I'm going to
walk down the hall to HR and try to get
my job back. Thank you for that.

Speaker 4 (01:32:40):
If you need an agent, you just let me know.
We'll get you a pay raise. In a car out
of it.

Speaker 1 (01:32:46):
I don't know, because the government isn't notorious for paying
people right now.

Speaker 3 (01:32:50):
So I don't know if this sounds so sweet, but
I'll take it.

Speaker 4 (01:32:53):
I hear you.

Speaker 3 (01:32:54):
I'll take it, all right.

Speaker 1 (01:32:54):
So give me this the book, How the test negative
for stupid? And why Washington never will? I love the
so much? Is it based in the fact that we're
fighting a lot of the wrong battles, like the compasses
broken in Washington?

Speaker 3 (01:33:08):
Is that the jump off of this?

Speaker 12 (01:33:11):
Yes, I wanted to people to understand, Jimmy, what it's
really like from the outside or from the inside. As
bad as it looks from the outside, you just you
wouldn't believe it from the inside. It's not a policy book,
per se. It's a story book.

Speaker 4 (01:33:27):
Now.

Speaker 12 (01:33:27):
I use stories to make my points about policy, but
the story Some of them are are bizarre.

Speaker 4 (01:33:34):
Some of them are funny, all of them are true.

Speaker 12 (01:33:38):
I tell stories about working with President Trump, about meeting
President she about the forty five minutes I spent with
President Biden. I talk about the crews and Grassley and
Shumer and just about every member of the Senate.

Speaker 4 (01:33:56):
I think the book.

Speaker 12 (01:33:58):
I believe the book will make people think, probably make
you laugh a little bit, may make you day drink.
But it's all true. And I want people to understand
why in Washington, d C. Normal is just a setting
on the drier, because I hear it all the time,
people saying that, how can it really be that crazy?

(01:34:19):
And I tell them, yes, common sense up here as illegal.

Speaker 1 (01:34:24):
It gets stopped by a cop talking to Luis. I
had a Senator John Kennedy, the book how to Test
Negative or Stupid. H you want me to tell you personally, Okay,
as a guy who hosts a Saturday night TV show,
and I'm frequently on Seohan Hannity Show after you a
lot of times, and of course I mean, oh come on, man, Well.

Speaker 3 (01:34:42):
If you've seen me, man, if you've seen me, you have.

Speaker 1 (01:34:44):
Doubled my ratings. That matters. Thank you, thank you. But
let me give you this because I went on tour
with Sean this summer. We did a thing called Punchlines
and Patriots, and it was a stand up in a
Q and A and it was a lot of fun.
But I can tell you the genuine best laugh you've
ever gotten out of him, and I only know this
from watching his re action, is you said AOC is
the reason we have directions on the shampoo bottle. Now.

(01:35:06):
He I know when a Joe hits him because he's
a great laugh and he really genuinely loves to laugh.

Speaker 3 (01:35:11):
And I love that about Sean.

Speaker 1 (01:35:13):
But sometimes if your next level him, he kind of
gets hitting away. It's like when a boxer's knees buckle.
And I do believe that goes on your Greatest Hits album.
There will go ahead, how you'll.

Speaker 4 (01:35:25):
Say, I remember when that happened.

Speaker 12 (01:35:26):
I was doing that show with Lindsay and with John Thune,
and Uh, Sean kind of he hit me. I left
left field, he said, Okay, the last word goes to Kennedy.
What do you think about congresswoman? Okay, show courtee. So
I just said what came to mind. I don't hate anybody, Jimmy,

(01:35:48):
I'm like you. I don't hate anybody. I look for
grace wherever I can find it. And the congresswoman is
entitled to her opinion. But she's crazy.

Speaker 4 (01:36:00):
Uh. She thinks she thinks she can land on the
sun if you go at night.

Speaker 14 (01:36:06):
She does.

Speaker 3 (01:36:10):
I don't doubt this. Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:36:12):
If you remember last week we had this controversy because
she was saying Stephen.

Speaker 3 (01:36:16):
Miller was four foot ten and he's five foot ten.

Speaker 1 (01:36:19):
And I wanted to point out, as I was a
former New York City cab driver, her being off by
a foot is not as bad as the time she
was off by forty miles when she said she grew
up in the Bronx.

Speaker 4 (01:36:31):
Exactly the Footmoe, I think.

Speaker 12 (01:36:34):
And then she had to apologize because she didn't want
to offend the short people.

Speaker 4 (01:36:39):
You know, I don't. I don't.

Speaker 12 (01:36:43):
Look, if I didn't know better, I would think that
Congresswoman Okassio Cortez was a Republican plant.

Speaker 4 (01:36:52):
I mean she is.

Speaker 12 (01:36:54):
She's clearly the leader of the party because she's the
leader of the loon wing of her party, and the
moon wing of our party is in control, and they've
got every other Democrat scared to death, including Senator Chuck Schumer.
And that's going to continue to be the case until
the relatively sane Democrats go to Amazon and buy spine online.

(01:37:18):
And they don't want to do that, and they don't
want to stand up to AOC or to the wing.
So you know, you reap what's your sow man?

Speaker 1 (01:37:28):
So are you telling me that if I'm going to Vegas.
I should bet the over thirty five days on the shutdown.

Speaker 12 (01:37:34):
Amen, brother, we're going to be shut down a while.
And look, this is not complicated. A couple of weeks ago,
on a two seed, our country was just kind of
rocking along.

Speaker 4 (01:37:46):
We're minding our own business.

Speaker 12 (01:37:48):
Our budget ran out at midnight, but that was cool
because we were talking to the Democrats about a short
term extension while we negotiated a new budget. And Schumer
comes up says, uh, wait a minute, I'm gonna vote
and tell all my people to vote to shut this
sucker down unless you give us one point five threeion

(01:38:09):
dollars and we'll tell you how to spend it.

Speaker 1 (01:38:12):
Wow.

Speaker 12 (01:38:13):
Well, you know, I mean, our heads snapped back, and uh,
I think I told the press my mama didn't raise
a fool, and if she did, it was one of
my brothers. I wasn't about to vote for that, and
the Republican was, and uh uh President Trump wasn't gonna
support it. And that's why we're in a shutdown. We

(01:38:34):
haven't asked for a damn thing. All we have asked
for is to keep government open while we negotiate a budget.
And uh, and Shupar wants all this stuff, you know,
dream Weaver is what I told said to Chuck the
other day. He said, why need this? And I need that?
And I said, dream Weaver, man, you don't put down

(01:38:55):
the ball. We're just gonna stay shut down.

Speaker 1 (01:38:58):
Yep. And I haven't seen any side of budget on
their end, any sign of that. Are there Democrats quietly
behind the scenes that realize this is a fool's errand
and they just don't have the guts to speak out?
Is that what it is?

Speaker 11 (01:39:12):
Sure?

Speaker 4 (01:39:12):
Of course.

Speaker 12 (01:39:15):
Democrats do a better job sticking together than Republicans in
the Senate. As I've said before, Republicans were kind of
independent thinkers. We've got some free range chickens that kind
of wander off on you and you got to go
catch them. I've been a free range chicken myself before.
But the Democrats pretty much do what they're told by

(01:39:38):
Senator Schumer up to a point. But I've got a
lot of Democratic colleagues that think this is a mistake.
They think it's hurting the country. But like them, they
are scared of the socialist wing of the Democratic Party,
which is in control, I mean, and they're in control Jimmy.

(01:40:00):
They're about to elect the socialist mayor of New York.

Speaker 4 (01:40:04):
I never thought I would see the day.

Speaker 3 (01:40:08):
Yeah, that one blows my mind.

Speaker 1 (01:40:09):
As a guy who works in TV, they always tell
me we need to avoid carbs, but I never expected
to be standing in a breadline.

Speaker 12 (01:40:17):
You know this is amen, and you know I wouldn't
vote for him. But mom, Donnie's going to win that thing.

Speaker 1 (01:40:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 12 (01:40:24):
His only competition is Glomo, and I can read a poll.
Glomo's dead. His pride chicken man, he can't win that race.

Speaker 1 (01:40:33):
No, it's not. He also probably killed off a lot
of his supporters during COVID. But I don't want to
get sidetracked.

Speaker 4 (01:40:39):
Yeah, I'm not gonna touch that one.

Speaker 3 (01:40:43):
Good job, Give me one more.

Speaker 1 (01:40:45):
Okay, question about the book how to test negative for stupid.

Speaker 3 (01:40:48):
We're talking to louis Ana Senator John Kennedy.

Speaker 1 (01:40:51):
When you comes to meeting with people like you talked
about meeting with Trump, meeting with Biden and Schumer and
Chuck Rassley and everybody in between, do the most successful
people have an efficiency to them. I'm very curious about
this because I've always told people who get things done
just start doing it before you even propose what you
need to do, is that the difference between Trump and

(01:41:11):
other people that have traditionally been in positions of power
like this.

Speaker 12 (01:41:15):
Well, Trump, Trump's very efficient, and he doesn't believe in
he doesn't believe in committees.

Speaker 4 (01:41:22):
When I have I.

Speaker 12 (01:41:24):
Don't call the president every week, but I've got a
cell phone number, and every time I call him, he
either picks up or he calls him back. Within six hours.
We generally work out whatever issue we have there on
the phone. He'll make a decision. He's not afraid. He's

(01:41:45):
a good business person. A good business person won't catch
things this way. If I've got keen decisions to make today,
I'm gonna make all ten, six or.

Speaker 4 (01:41:57):
Seven of them. I'll get right.

Speaker 12 (01:42:00):
One of them I can go back and fix, and
the other two I'll just get wrong.

Speaker 4 (01:42:04):
But back in the eight out of ten ain't bad.

Speaker 12 (01:42:06):
And and that's He's very decisive, and that's what we've
been missing.

Speaker 1 (01:42:11):
Uh.

Speaker 12 (01:42:12):
President Biden. On the other hand, Buss's heart. You know,
he couldn't finish the sentence without taking a nap.

Speaker 4 (01:42:20):
It was sad.

Speaker 1 (01:42:23):
Would you would you say, if we were ranking the
worst presidents in history that Jill Biden would be near
the bottom.

Speaker 12 (01:42:32):
I hate to say it, but yes, because I think
history will look back and realize that a lot of
what the Biden administration did, while he's personally responsible for it,
he didn't make the decision.

Speaker 4 (01:42:49):
I used to get asked.

Speaker 12 (01:42:50):
All the time by my people back in Louisiana, who's
really the president because we don't believe it's President Biden.
They just see President Biden on TV talking like he's
from out of space, and they say he can't be president.
Who's the president? I tell him, whoever's got control of
that table prompt?

Speaker 4 (01:43:06):
Because the president just.

Speaker 12 (01:43:07):
Goes up there and he reads it, and I think
it's five or six ages in his family and they're
the real president of the United States. And I think
President Obama had an enormous amount of influence.

Speaker 1 (01:43:19):
It sure reads that way, especially when he's as bitter
as he is about Trump getting the hostages back, because
you could see that Obama didn't He actually didn't mention him,
He couldn't give him credit, and on some level that
just has to be a slight to him.

Speaker 4 (01:43:31):
No it is, and.

Speaker 12 (01:43:34):
They see what President Trump did, why did we get
the hostages back? It's not complicated because the President Trump,
unlike President Biden, I'm loud Israel to slap a moss
and slap has the law to puto is He'll just
knock them live and crap out of And then President

(01:43:55):
Trump turned around and hit Iran so hard the eye
had to It was call them up bones. And these
these were our enemies and they were supposed to be
so strong, strong the force rategy. Don't mess with his
ballar or run or our moss. Well Israel on the
and and and President Trump did mess with him, knocked

(01:44:16):
him into a new zip code. And they said, hey,
you don't know moss, you know we what do you want?
And Trump said, didn't release the hostage hostages and of.

Speaker 4 (01:44:26):
Course they did it.

Speaker 12 (01:44:28):
And if they don't turn over their weapons, uh, President
Trump is going to turn turn israelis.

Speaker 1 (01:44:34):
Again a man. Last question, then you mentioned you mentioned
you have the president's cell phone. I would never ask
for a cell phone number, but could you get me
Malania's number.

Speaker 4 (01:44:45):
I do not have Malania's numbers.

Speaker 12 (01:44:48):
I will, I'll send you the president's phone number, and
you know you can call him up late at night.

Speaker 4 (01:44:56):
Think the some Halloween jokes or something.

Speaker 1 (01:44:58):
Senator Kenny ply answered, Jimmy, I know that's the thing
about him, and he may take you.

Speaker 12 (01:45:04):
Look once he gets your cell mumber, Jimmy, he'll be
calling you for him in the morning.

Speaker 4 (01:45:09):
He's like a straight dog.

Speaker 12 (01:45:11):
If you feed him once, you can't get rid of him. Man,
he never sleeps.

Speaker 4 (01:45:15):
You're killing me.

Speaker 1 (01:45:16):
Man, Listen, I thank you for some time today. I'm
going to get off before I'm on a government watch list.
But Senator Kennedy, you're the man.

Speaker 4 (01:45:23):
Thanks, Jimmy, You're a rockstar.

Speaker 12 (01:45:25):
Man.

Speaker 1 (01:45:25):
I'll take it. You're the best. Take care the great Louisiana.
Senator John Kennedy. The book How to Test Negative for Stupid.
Buy eight copies or You're dead to me?

Speaker 3 (01:45:34):
Sure hanging well the ninth on Fox across America.

Speaker 1 (01:45:37):
It is time to give out our participation trophy. Before
we do, Max roundup applause for Senator John Kennedy. Fantastic,
and he had some choice comments about our girl AOC.
She's so dumb. She thinks you can land on the
sun if you go at night. Trophy has to go

(01:46:00):
to AOC.

Speaker 12 (01:46:01):
No.

Speaker 1 (01:46:01):
Here it is her saying air should be drinkable. Clip
six sick of.

Speaker 11 (01:46:06):
Talking about these horse races, and we're sick of leaders
who only want to spend their time talking about that,
instead of talking about real issues that affect our lives,
instead of talking about healthcare, instead of talking about wages,
instead of talking about having air that's drinkable, what sir.

Speaker 1 (01:46:23):
Hold on air that's drinkable just a bit outside the
trophy goes to AOC max fair.

Speaker 14 (01:46:33):
I think that's more than fair, all right.

Speaker 1 (01:46:34):
And the revelation of the day was from Senator Kennedy
who said he might be able to get me Malania's
phone number herey you so tune in tomorrow. Jenny Fail
is on the show, maybe as my wife, maybe not.
I don't know what you heard in this interview, but
the show's over pay up and get outs.
