In today’s polarized climate, even efforts to end the Ukraine war spark controversy, as media narratives often focus on partisan divides rather than humanitarian progress. As former President Trump leads high-profile peace talks—with European leaders and Ukraine’s president seeking his involvement—the coverage spotlights trivial matters, overshadowing the potential for conflict resolution. It’s time for honest, unfiltered analysis that puts truth before allegiance.

Speaker 1 (00:02):
Hey gang, guess what?
You know what time it is.
You're probably thinking it'sWednesday.
It's probably Wednesday.
No folks, it's Groundhog Dayagain.
And you know why I sayGroundhog Day?
It's because we just can'tstand the liberal media.
We are so tired of the stupidshit, the stupid shit, the

(00:31):
stupid idiots, the gender-based,moronic, left-leaning,
we-gotta-get-trump attitude.
It's fascinating how obvious ithas now become that for four
years it would be suck on theBidens, it would be suck up to
the Bidens.
Mulligan for the Bidens Hidethe lies of the Bidens.
And even when their hands gotcaught in the cookie jar, they

(00:54):
still had to come up withexcuses.
I mean not everyone.
You listen to Bill Maher andhe's saying to you guys, even
he's saying you guys in themedia are off your rocker
because all you've done isyou've focused on Trump.
Derangement syndrome.
And even when it comes up toUkraine, the twisting, the

(01:14):
turning the knife in the backmindset that the media wants to
do to Trump is unimaginable.
All they want to do is stab him, stab him, stab him.
Cannot give this guy one bit ofan ounce?
And it's a very funny storybecause one commentator laughed
at the end Ha ha ha.
Trump wants a Nobel Peace Prize.
Man deserves it.

(01:36):
Ladies and gentlemen, welcomeback to the network.
I'm David Solomon.
He is Stuart Briscoe.
Every Monday, wednesday, friday, noon Eastern, we do this thing
called ranting.
So we love to rant all aboutstuff that we are unedited,
uncensored, unfiltered andcertainly unapologetic.
We love focusing on politics,but we talk about the absurdity
of modern life and what we'redealing with on a day-to-day
basis.

(01:56):
The nuttiness that we deal withis, unfortunately, it's
whispered in certain circles.
You can't talk about it outloud because people are afraid.
Still, we're not.
So sit back today as we getinto this whole thing about
Trump, ukraine, putin, zelensky.
You know, stuart, I got to tellyou I was just fascinated how

(02:20):
the media skips over details,important facts.
Zelensky came to the White Housethe first time, met Trump and
JD Vance and got a beat downlike you can't imagine, because
Zelensky came in, made a commentand Trump kind of looked at him
in front of the meeting, goingwhat the hell are you trying to
pull here, dude?

(02:40):
You're not in a position ofstrength.
Dude, you're not in a positionof strength, fast forward.
Zelensky meets Trump and nowZelensky is kind of hat in hand,
going to Donald Trump saying Ineed your help.
I really do.
I can't finish this war.
And on this time, the visit, hecomes into the Oval Office, he
is not dressed in military gearand all that stuff.

(03:02):
They got dressed up just alittle bit and it was
appropriate, but what did themedia want to focus on?
How Trump offended anotherinternational leader.
They can't get off of the factthat Trump is moving towards a
reconciliation, that Bidendidn't do a war, that Biden let

(03:26):
go, and the media just wants tofocus on melania trump sending a
letter to mrs putin.
I mean, like it's not evenfunny what the media is trying
to do.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
Stewart, you take it away okay, you know, david,
that's a great start.
The trump derangement syndromeis something that isn't going to
end.
There is nothing in the world,in politics or in life, that the
family could do right, and I'lltell you why.

(03:59):
You know, it's very simple.
It's one word starts with theletter J, called jealousy.
I truly believe this is no morethan not high school but
elementary class jealousy.
You know, and I'll be honestwith you, where they have failed

(04:22):
in the schoolyard, theDemocrats, and continue to fail.
They even go so far as tryingto copy the guy's style.
Now you and I have spoken overfive years.
You know I'm not a fan of hisstyle Definitely the least
presidential president inhistory.
However, now you get guys likeGavin Newsom.

(04:44):
I like that.
I like when he makes fun ofpeople.
Or Little Crockett in Texas, orAO what Crap makes fun of
people?
Or?
Or little Crockett in, in, inin Texas, or, or, or, or, or, a.
Oh, what crap.
You know, he, he, he plays likehe's a rough Nick in the
schoolyard and, and the funnything is, he isn't the bully,

(05:04):
he's the guy that just punchesback.
But every time he punches back.
Unless you're on Bill Maher'snews network or Fox News.
You would never believe that hedid anything right.
And even Bill Maher concedesthat the guy saved people from
dying.
Give him an applause.

(05:26):
No, no, no, donald Trump.
He profited off those deadpeople because he used the plane
that we paid for.
You know, they don't reallyhave a way on.
No, he stopped the war.
No, no, no.
He's opening hotels.
He's making money.
That's why he stopped the war.
They cannot get their headsaround the fact that the guy

(05:50):
keeps doing right.
They forget the fact that theObamas, the Clintons, the Bidens
were broke before they got intopolitics Broke.
They were nobodies.
They were nobodies.
In fact, you know what?
They're again becomingirrelevant nobodies.
And actually, no, the Clintonsare becoming very, very, very,

(06:13):
very popular, probably more withthe Department of Justice as of
late.
But you really got to take thisone step further.
Why can't anyone give DonaldTrump a thumbs up?
Oh, that's easy.
It's just jealousy, david.

(06:33):
It is utter jealousy.
They cannot get their headsaround that he is outsmarting,
outwitted and outplayed everyone of these academics or
politically correct persons.
You know he doesn't change hisstripes because the media tries
to pull him to a direction.

(06:54):
He stays on his path, which hebelieves is the path of the
American people and if you askthe majority of Americans today,
they're going to agree.
They may not like his antics,his vernacular or his methods,
but it's what he delivers toeach and every single American.

(07:16):
And you know I am hard-pressedto find even a liberal Krupnik,
even like Newscum, who couldactually say he's not better off
without him.
You know he talks out of oneside but looks at his bank
account 401k statement and hisinvestment accounts and goes I'm

(07:36):
rocking and rolling, keep going, donald.
Yeah, lower that mortgage rateso I can buy more stuff on
credit and not have to care.
They can't give the guy a passAOC.
You know she can't give the guya pass aoc.
You know she can't give the guya.
You know these politicians thatwant to be yelling and
screaming are trying to emulatethe guy in which they try and

(08:01):
massacre.
It's just funny.
I just can't stop but laugh.

Speaker 1 (08:05):
David, I'm sorry, you know, you're, you're, you're.
You went down that path of thedemocrats and I think, I think,
that the Democrats are playingtheir game.
The Democrats are here to playtheir game, stuart.
That's what they're here to do.
They're here to get reelected,not that they know how to do it
right now.
You know, putting in a guy likeMamdani as their leader in

(08:26):
their face of the party is acolossal disaster and you know
what I'm going to tell you.
It scares the crap out of a lotof people but it might shake
the democratic party to realize.
You know what.
You guys are going too far, youknow.
But look, aoc one, bernie one.
So they think, hey, let's bringin mom Donnie.
Elizabeth Warren's happy aboutit, fine, is happy about it,

(08:47):
fine, that's what the partywants and that's not really
what's going on.
This is their answer to DonaldTrump.
The answer to Donald Trump iseverything he builds we need to
destroy.
So when it comes up to theUkraine, where for three years,
millions have died people onboth sides, many innocent

(09:12):
victims that the mediaconveniently has forgotten to
talk about, the displacement ofmillions of Ukrainians and
resettlement around the world,including Poland, which is
ironic, that the Poles took inthe Ukrainians.
It's a whole other story thatno one really wants to get into.
Nobody wants to talk about thefact that Joe Biden let a war

(09:33):
happen and Stewart was the onewho talked about at the
beginning that it was going toreally hurt us at the grocery
store.
Nobody really wants to talkabout that.
And on and on and on and on.
The media has decided whichparts of the story it wants to
convey, and then there's what itdoes to Trump and what they're
telling you.
And, as I talked about onMonday's rant, it's amazing what

(09:56):
the media is willing can getaway with, thanks to the first
amendment.
Say and do whatever you want.
To say that Donald Trump didn'tcome out with a peace treaty
with Putin is absolute absurdity.
How can a person not involvedin the war be directly negotiate

(10:17):
on behalf of Ukraine?
The absurdity is off the charts.
And we saw the European leadersand even the ones who hate him
the most had to say you got itright, donald.
They didn't just say it becausethey were in the White House,
they said it because it's true.
These are lefty leaders, keirStarmer, there.

(10:40):
Emmanuel Macron was a piece ofshit, you know.
The head of the European Unionwas there.
You know all these otherleaders are there and they're
all around the table going.
You got us on the right track.
Now we need to do a deal.
Now will Donald Trump do avictory lap saying look at me,
I'm great, I'm the bestpresident, look what I've done?

(11:01):
Absolutely, and we expect thatfrom the Don.
We expect him to.
He is the boaster, he is thebiggest con salesman.
Whatever you want to call himGreat, super, but he got it done
.
Someone made a very interestingremark and I'm sorry I can't
remember who it was.
There have been numerousconflicts that he stopped india,
pakistan, he stopped.

(11:22):
There was one with, you know,in asia.
There was that one, there's abunch, and it was one in africa.
You didn't hear about itbecause, just like the abraham
accords, you can't give donaldtrump any positivity because
it's good.
And if you remember whathappened in 2020, when he

(11:43):
brought Bahrain and UAE andMorocco and South Sudan to sign
on the White House lawn, mediaoutlets didn't show the
signatures on the White Houselawn.
They ignored the event, becauseyou can't give Donald Trump a
high five here.
Donald Trump, since he's gotteninto office, stuart, since, I

(12:04):
mean, we're August 20th.
He got in January 20th so it'sseven months has done more than
Biden and Obama combined in 12years.
In seven months.
Not everything's perfect, Iagree.

(12:24):
I can talk about the tariffstill I'm blue in the face Not
the way I would have done it.
But look at the dust settlingand look what he's done for
America.
Look what he's done at theborder.
Look what he's done for thecrime.
Look what he's done withillegal immigration.
Look what he's done withUkraine, joe Biden.
All he wanted to do was sendarms to the Ukraine.
Imagine, stuart.
Joe Biden wanted to keep a wargoing.

(12:45):
Donald Trump wants to stop itand the media is lambasting him
for that decision.
What the hell is wrong with you?

Speaker 2 (12:55):
Well, you know.
Again, we talked aboutpoliticians flip-flopping.
The Democrats were anti-war.
Well no, they're the sponsor ofwar.
Ukraine is my example.
And the Republicans were thewarmongers and the Democrats
were not, and they flip-flopped.
Donald Trump says openly I don'twant 7,000 people to die a day.

(13:15):
I'm not getting together withyou next month, we're getting
together tomorrow.
The level of urgency that thispresident has given the death
and carnage in a foreign land isunprecedented.
No American president inhistory has paid so much
attention to the death andcarnage that's going on and
finding solutions to prevent it.
Is it a matter that the guysfound God since he got shot in

(13:39):
the head or is it the fact thathe is truly a patriot of the
world?
He is American first.
That doesn't mean no one elsecomes second, and I believe
firmly and honestly.
When you looked at that meetingwith Macron and the whole gang
of Europe, they came in 48 hoursto sit next to the president.

(14:01):
Who was getting to sit next toDonald J Trump was the argument
of the room.
I hate to say this, david, butI didn't hear the word Carney
being invited.

Speaker 1 (14:13):
Oh, I was waiting for you to bring in Carney.
Carney has nothing to do withit, though.
It does not even matter,absolutely, and you know what?
It just not even matter.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
Absolutely, and you know what, it just doesn't
matter.
They want to sit next to DonaldTrump.
I want to know.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
I want to know, david , I want to know, I think you
have Carney derangement syndrome, but here's the thing he's not
even your prime minister.
I'm going to have to sufferwith him, but you can't imagine
the vilification in media ofDonald Trump On the left, the
liberal media.
What they try to do, what theytry to do is to discredit

(14:50):
whatever he does.
Now it's about painting thewall black.
Ha ha ha.
It's just an amazing amount ofabsurdity.
Ha ha, it's just an amazingamount of absurdity.
And I'm applauding certain mediapeople who finally stood up and
said guys, guys doing stuff,why are we trashing the guy?

(15:11):
The poppy is.
Popularity has grown.
Joe Biden didn't have this kindof popularity in office and yet
Donald Trump is here.
And you know, when you hearstupid things like Mark Hamill
saying, oh, I was going to leavethe US when Trump was reelected
because he's such a liberal,and yada, yada, yada, you know,
shake your head, people.
You don't have to like the guy,but look what he's doing and if

(15:37):
it's not to your liking, thenget the hell out.
Go find another country to livein, like Rosie O'Donnell, I
don't really care, rosieO'Donnell, I don't care.
But here's the thing, stuart,he's getting shit done.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
Last word to you, my friend no matter what he does,
they're going to hate him.
No matter what you say, they'restill going to hate him.
And I want to bring up onetopic which I'm going to save
for Friday's rant Even MS, no,not now.
No, can't even give the guy avictory lap.

Speaker 1 (16:09):
They'll never give him an MSNBC.
Could care less, In fact.

Speaker 2 (16:12):
No, no, no longer MSNBC, it's MS.
No, n-o-w, it's no longer MSNBC.
They have parted ways.
David, you need to payattention and I want to make
sure that Friday, becauseDavid's now going to be what are
you talking about?
Ms?
No, is the new name of the hatenetwork.
Just so you know.

(16:32):
Like Al Jazeera, it's MS.

Speaker 1 (16:34):
No, the Al Jazeera version in the United States.
We'll talk about that on Friday.
Ladies and gentlemen, come backMonday.
I'm sorry Monday, wednesday andFriday at noon.
Curious where Stuart's going.
Have a good week everyone.
