All right, welcome to the show. Happy Monday, and better yet,

Donald Choke given the executive order that we're back to
Columbus Day because we love you Italians. Yeah, welcome to
the sho Hope you had a fantastic weekend. By the way,

(02:02):
today is also another special day. It's little Charlie's birthday.
And I want to say, I want to say he's twelve.
I'm not one hundred percent positive on that. I'm pretty
sure Charlie today is celebrating his number twelve birthday. And
he's actually in studio with me today. He's found our
guest chair and he has found this thing to be

(02:23):
extremely comfortable, and he is He's chilling all up in there.
He's like, that is my birthday. I'm hanging out with
you today, and this is where we're going to be.
So it is what it is. As he proceeds to
lick areas that I don't need to watch him do
while we're doing the show. But anyhow, welcome to the show.
Good morning to all of our rumblers, Good morning to

(02:45):
everybody over there on Wimken, our rusties over there, and
of course, good morning to you here on the Florida
Man Radio Network, and a simple hello to everybody listening
on the podcast. Got a lot to talk about. The
Left is upset though, because they don't have a lot
to talk about. Their world is just completely imploding around them.

(03:06):
They're anti Donald Trump. Donald Trump is the devil, Donald
Trump is the worst, Donald Trump is hitler. All of
their narrative against Donald Trump is completely falling apart, because
now you can't continue to call Donald Trump hitler. When
Donald Trump saved Israel one of the best memes I've
seen over the weekend. You can't call him hitler when

(03:28):
he saved Israel. Crap, Now what do you do? In
addition to that, I saw another meme over the weekend.
It was a great one. It was one with two columns.
One had President Biden, Trump and Obama in it and
the other side had terrorists in it. And it starts
off with Obama and the terrorists say we're gonna bomb you,

(03:52):
followed by Barack Obama's comments, we're gonna negotiate. Joe Biden
same thing, say we're gonna bom you, Joe Biden says
we're going to negotiate. And then finally you get down
to Donald Trump. The Donald Trumps says we're going to
bomb the s out of you, followed by the terror
saying we want to negotiate. And Donald Trump has once

(04:17):
again proven that he is right, that he is the
president that this country in the world needs. When we
see everything that is going on this morning Donald Trump
addressing or actually I guess it's this afternoon earlier today,
Donald Trump addressing the Israeli government post the hostage releases,

(04:37):
which has been kind of a sad thing. I don't
know if anybody has watched any of the obviously a
lot of that video was early this morning, some of
it late last night of the hostages being released, and
some of the then and now photos. I guess my
question for other Americans, the leftist Americans who have gone

(04:59):
on this whole pro Palestinian kick, pro Hamas kick, are
you okay now that you see what it is that
the Hamas people have done. The terrorists have done what
they did to these people, they tortured them. You have
people that were going into this as the hostages in

(05:21):
a very healthy look to them, only to come out
and look like skin and bones after being tortured by
these people for two years. I really don't get the
left on this. And of course this is another thing
that the left is they're gonna be upset about because
for two years they have screamed free Palestine and now

(05:45):
for the first time that I can think of. I
don't know if it's ever been another time that this
has ever happened, But you have the Palestinians and the
Israelis cheering the exact same thing at the exact same time,
and it is because of Donald Trump. What do you

(06:08):
got left next? Left? I mean, what are you gonna do?
I mean, are you gonna actually come out and maybe say, oh, well,
thank thank you President Trump for freeing Palestine. No, you
know what's gonna happen. And I'm telling you, I'm gonna
predict this right now. I'm gonna tell you today on
Columbus Day, October thirteenth, that what the next complaining is

(06:32):
going to be, and it's gonna start here, probably in
the next couple of weeks, is that the evil capitalism,
in evil Donald Trump is destroying Gaza as they go
in with bulldozers and construction equipment to start to remove
all of the destroyed buildings and everything else and start

(06:53):
to clean up Gaza and then start to build new
homes and new communities. Once that starts to happen, watched,
the Left is gonna turn around and they're going to
then have to protest capitalism, and they're gonna have to
protest Donald Trump because Donald Trump is allowing capitalism to
go in and rebuild Gaza so that the people of Palestine,
or the Palestinian people can actually go in there and

(07:16):
have a good place to live. And this is bad
because capitalism is horrible. And Donald Trump, he's well in
the bad guy Donald Jump. Even Harry Sisson, I've been
watching this over the weekend. This kid, he's he's so
at the point where he's got nothing else. He's like,

(07:37):
I uh, and he's crashing. I thought I had an
audio of him that I was gonna play because comb
my hair. My hair is fine to Actually it's not.
I'll totally my hair is a hot mess today because
it has reached that length of it's it's uncontrollable and

(07:59):
it's just it needs a haircut. I'm just I'm totally
going to admit to that, straight up, not going to
argue it whatsoever. Where was that, Oh, here it is.
It was Donald Trump or Harry Sisson, who's losing his
mind now because he's got nothing on Donald Trump. You know,
all this bashing on Trump that he's been doing, and

(08:22):
now he's getting to a point where he's starting to crash,
and here's his latest crash. Maybe.

Speaker 6 (08:29):
So it's the middle of the night when I'm filming this,
but I just read a quote in the Washington Post
about Joe Biden and the Democrats that really pissed me off.
So I'm going to scream about it to you now.
In this new article they put out about Biden's cancer diagnosis,
his treatment, his post presidency, a journalist named Mark Updegrove
said that quote, Joe Biden staved off the reelection challenge

(08:50):
from Trump in twenty twenty, but he's also the most
responsible person for Trump's return to office. And I don't
think there's any denying that. Well, hey, Mark, there's a
lot of denying that. A basic understanding of what took
place in twenty twenty four, you can easily deny it.
Why aren't you blaming the media outlets who you work for,
who didn't cover Donald Trump correctly and gave him plenty

(09:11):
of airtime to spew his lies with no fact checks.
Why don't you blame the people who didn't vote, the
people who didn't do their civic duty. Why don't you
blame the hundreds of millions of dollars coming from Republican
donors that created propaganda and lies that embedded themselves in
the minds of the American people. You don't blame any
of that, but people want to put the blame solely
on Joe Biden, the most successful legislative president we've had

(09:35):
in modern American history, one of the best in terms
of what he got done in just four years. It
is so crazy to me that in the Democratic Party
we look at somebody like Joe Biden who was successful,
and we try to tear him down instead of uplifting
him and his legacy. And let me just be clear
about something. I will always do that. I will defend

(09:55):
Joe Biden and his legacy. If these media outlets won't,
I'll do it, and many other people will because we
love Joe. We care for Joe, and I hope his
cancer battle is going well. And shout out to the
Biden family. I love you guys. You guys are fantastic.

Speaker 5 (10:10):
All right, poor hair bear, that poor kid. He Let's
start off with this, even though I think most of
us listening to this show right now, we are not
fans of Joe Biden, not fans of Joe Biden in
any way, think that he was a horrible senator, think
that he was a horrible president. He's He's got a

(10:32):
lot of things that we can talk about. They'd like
to rub my legs. There's a lot of things that
we can say about Joe Biden that that are factual,
that are not very flattering. But you know what, on
a human level, on a human standpoint, look, I hope
that his his cancer treatment ends up being a positive thing.

(10:57):
Cancer is not a good thing in any way for
anyone to go through, no matter how much you despise
a person, no matter how much of a horrible person
somebody is, cancer is not a good thing. And with
all of my heart, I hope that that Joe Biden
comes out of this. On the back end, well, it's

(11:17):
going to be a tough battle. He's not a healthy
man to begin with. He is at a very elder age,
and based upon some of the reading that I've been
doing about his condition and the level that he is
at now and the treatments that they're getting to, it's
not a very very positive future. It isn't. But again,

(11:39):
because of the fact that I'm a human being and
I can take the politics away from it. I can
take the fact that I do not like Joe Biden
in any shape or form, not exactly the biggest fan
of the Biden family. But look, he is still a man.
He is a human. He has family that loves him.
Whether we agree with the family or not, or whether
we like the family or not, is is, It doesn't matter.

(12:03):
He has a family, And look, I think we could
all say, hey, I hope you turn out okay for
your family's sake, just the human aspect of us. But
the man's a piece of crap, regardless to how we
may feel and say hey, I hope that you survived
the cancer thing. He's still a piece of crap. He

(12:24):
was an absolute horrible president. He was a horrible man.
He was a very racist man. He was a horrible senator.
There is not a lot of good to talk about
when it comes to Joe Biden's legacy. And when Hairbear
comes out here and he starts talking about how, oh
well there were Republicans they spend millions of dollars. Yeah,

(12:45):
Kamala Harris blew through a billion plus dollars, a billion
plus dollars and lost to the horrible, despicable Donald Trump
that the media was not covering. I mean, are you
paying attention to the reality here, hairbear? I mean, are
you really you want to talk about the media and

(13:08):
Donald Trump. Okay, the media bashed on Donald Trump for
eight years. They made things up about Donald Trump for
eight years. If something was positive, like oh my god,
Donald Trump actually woke up this morning. This is the
worst thing in the world. This is how bad the
media was. The media made up things over and over

(13:29):
and over again. And you see the propaganda that comes
from people like you, hairbear. There's non propaganda that is
coming from from the conservative side. I'm sure there's their messaging,
which I'll be honest, is fantastic. But you look at
what has been bombarded against Donald Trump for all of

(13:51):
this time, and you should be going after the media
and the people who didn't get up and vote, and
the fact that the Republicans they spent billions of dollars
and deed, boy, you're right, and I'm gonna say it,
Joe Biden is evil. He is just as evil as
the rest of the Democrats. Now again, because of the

(14:11):
fact that I am still a human being, I don't
wish death upon the man, but there is also a reality.
He's probably not gonna make it very long. I mean,
my prediction that I had was six months after the
presidency was over that he would probably pass away just
because his health was not that good. But I just

(14:33):
I love how hairbear now he is starting to melt down.
He's starting to melt down because he's got nothing else.
You can't attack Donald Trump for the way he's handling
Hamas and Israel because he just achieved peace. He just
achieved getting all of those hostages released and everything that
they keep going after Donald Trump for. He wins. They fail,

(14:56):
and they've got nothing. So it's gonna be interesting to
watch how much desperateness that we're gonna see coming out
of left. And of course, now the other one is
that Hamas does not exist. There's no such thing as Hamas. Damn.
I would love more than anything to spend a weekend
at this utopia that the Left live in. It's got

(15:17):
to be a great place, it really does. Anyhow, we
got to take a quick break. We'll be right back.
This is the Brian Russ Show. Good morning, all right,
welcome back to the show. Happy Monday again, Happy Columbus Day.

(15:39):
I can't believe me saying that it's indented his me.
Sit down, shut up. It is not and is Columbus Day.
It always has been, always will be get over it.
But he didn't really discover America. I know, but that's
not what we're talking about. We're celebrating Columbus Day. So
sit down and be quiet. Welcome back to the show.
Thanks so much for waking up with us today to

(16:00):
appreciate it. So I guess now I've got to figure
out what the hell happened, because I swear to God
and maybe this is, uh, what is that the Mendela effect.
Maybe this is some of the Mendela effect going on.
But I'm I'm fairly certain that over the past couple

(16:22):
of months it's I've seen a resurgence of something that
I swear that we saw like four years ago, this
thing called Antifa, And and I don't know. Maybe I'm
just not enough coffee, maybe there's something maybe too much
jet fuel fumes or so, I don't know. I don't

(16:42):
there's something you helped me out with this, because maybe
you guys are experiencing this too, But I think I
remember seeing this Antifa group, you know, I specifically think
I've seen these protesters that go out there and they
call themselves Antifa, and they've been going into places like

(17:04):
Portland and they've been rioting and rallying and fighting the
ice and other stuff, and I've seen him in a
few of them. I'm pretty certain that I've seen it. Now.
I know I'm getting a little bit older, and I
know that as you age a little bit that your
memory starts to slip. But again, I kind of remember
from like four years ago that there was this Antifa group.

(17:25):
But now we're being told no. Jimmy Kimmel, for the
three people that actually watched it and reported this, was
talking again on his show, which again dip with pay
attention to the room. But even Jimmy Kimble's coming out
and he's like, Antifa, there's no such thing. It's fake,
It's it's not real. Pretty sure it is pretty pretty

(17:52):
sure that it is. Let's see Minnesota A g. Keith Ellison.
This guy, I mean, he's a piece of work. He's
also out now claiming that there is no Antifa and
nobody knows what it is, despite the fact that just
a few years ago, back during the Black Lives Matter

(18:12):
riots in twenty twenty, his son, councilman Jeremiah Ellis, declared
his support for Antifa. Where the AG's son, the age
who's now out there saying that there is no there's
no Antifa, nobody knows what it is. And yet his

(18:36):
son came on and said, I hereby declare officially my
support for Antifa, and he wrote this on acts or
Twitter at the time. Unless someone can prove to me
Antifa is behind the burning of black and immigrant owned
businesses in my ward, I'll keep focusing on stepping stopping
the white power terrorists that are actually attacking us. Yes, Jeremiah,

(19:02):
that is called antifa. Antifa would be the white powered
terrorists that were attacking your city of Minneapolis. I don't
I don't know if you're aware of that. But it's

(19:22):
it's like he comes out and he even says that
I support Antifa, who is a group of white terrorists,
And then unless you can prove to him that Antifa
is behind the burning of the black and immigrant owned
businesses in his ward, He'll keep focusing on stopping the
white power. Hang on a second, wait, we need hang on,

(19:45):
I need I need fresh piece of paper on this one.
I gotta try and figure this out. I've got like
a minute and a half here to figure this one
out before our break. Okay, we we claim our support
for Antifa. Okay, so we got to support for Antifa,
but then you need proof that Antifa is not burning

(20:07):
down all this stuff. But then you're going to continue
to try and stop the white power group terrorizing the
city who happens to be Antifa. But your dad says
that Antifa isn't real. Damn, I'm confused. I'm just I'm

(20:34):
all kinds of of what Like the room is spinning.
It's so confusing. So this is gonna be the next
thing now that despite the fact that we have watched Antifa,
despite the fact that we are seeing people who are
claiming to be Antifa, the left is now going to
say there's no such thing as Antifa. It's all made up.
It's a fantasy. It's something that it's Donald Trump's fault.

(20:57):
Oh boy, we gotta take a break. Got be right back,
all right, Welcome back to the Brian Rush Show, Happy Monday.
Thanks for working up with us today. Hang on a sake,
And I was just looking through Glock's website right now

(21:20):
because I want to how we go products firearms. That's
what I want, commercial firearms. What we've got for commercial
firearms here? Okay, I got a lot of block pistols,
a couple of different colors here, a couple of different sizes.

(21:41):
This is neat what else we got? Okay? Those all
look like handguns. I'm specifically looking for something. So bear
with me for just a second because and I'll follow
up on here to say, ok get law enforcement. It's
got to be under lawenforcement. That's that's got to be
where where it is here? Let me see, does look

(22:07):
a lot kind of like the commercial versions here. I'm
still not still not finding what. Hang on, give me
a second, because it's got to be in here, gotta
be in here. Wow, law enforcement has a lot more
access to Glock than the rest of us do. That's
just that fair. Mm hmmmmm. See, what I'm looking for

(22:32):
is the Glock machine guns. I know what you're thinking already,
but bear with me for a second. Don't don't don't
go jumping on me and go Brian. Glock doesn't have
machine guns. I know, I know, but apparently it's there,
so I've got to look for it, and I just
I want to be sure that we are in huh,
well this this isn't making any sense because you would

(22:53):
think that, you know, if they would have this stuff,
it would be maybe maybe choosing the block which one
is right for me? It's not there, So I'm again
thoroughly confused. Because of the Democrats. This has been a
confusing morning already for me. Hopefully we can get through this.
But on Friday, Gavin Newsom he ended up signing a

(23:15):
new law into effect. It was the Assembly Bill eleven
twenty seven, aka the Glock Ban, and with this the
ban will take of effect on July first of twenty
twenty six, banning the sale of new Block brand pistols
and Block style clones. Now, based upon how the left

(23:37):
does this, that would mean just about anything, right because
remember it's an AR fifteen style assault machine gun weapon.
And because of the fact that Democrats are stupid, which
they are, especially when they write anything legislation wise with guns.
The glock ban, which is a totally Democrat sponsored legislation,

(23:58):
and it is responsible. The whole reason for it is
because of the the glock switches, which, by the way,
I don't know if anybody knows this what a glock
switch is basically a glock switch is something that would
allow you to convert your semi automatic weapon. Now, for
the Democrats that are listening, allow me to explain to

(24:19):
a semi automatic weapon, that means that you have to
pull the trigger, press the trigger all the way until
a round fires, and then you must release the trigger
before you can pull the trigger once again in order
for the second round to fire. So you got it

(24:40):
with me, finger motion pull release, pull release, pull release,
pull release. That is semi automatic. That is what nine
percent of the weapons that are that we have access
to are in this country. Now, with this block switch,
which you are seeing in a lot of gang activity,

(25:00):
it alters it so that it is just one pull
and it empties the magazine in like a half a second.
I mean it just it blows everything out of there quickly.
It's stupid, it's uncontrollable, and you're out of m and
now I can shoot you if you didn't get me
with that burst of rounds that you had. It's a
dumb idea. But because of the glock switches, which again

(25:24):
are already an illegal thing, so work with me on
this one. We have a law that says something is
illegal and because of the fact that the bad guys
are not following the law where you're not supposed to
have the glock switches. We pass another law to stop

(25:46):
the stuff that the other law was designed to stop
but didn't stop because you don't well enforce the law.
But it's a good thing because now we have another
law to stop the law. Of course, the only thing
that this affects are the law abiding citizens. The law

(26:09):
abiding citizens who might want a glock to protect themselves
and their families. Now you can't buy one in the
state of California because of the glock ban, because of
the thing that is already illegal that they don't Jesus man,
this is not hard to figure out, guys, but they

(26:31):
still can't figure it out. But the glock switches are
basically a federally prohibited plastic piece. So it's not even
a thing where it's a state thing. It's a federal
ban where you're not allowed to do it. In the
text of the bill, and again this goes to show
that it was an idiot Democrat that or liberal that

(26:52):
wrote the bill. The text says a machine gun convertible
pistol as an any semi automatic pistol with a trigger
bar that can be easily converted by hand or with
common household tools into a machine gun by the installation

(27:13):
of an attachment of a pistol converter as specified and
pistol converter as any device or instrument that, when installed
in or attached to the rear of a slide of
a semi automatic pistol, replaces the back plate and interferes
with the trigger mechanism, and therefore or thereby enables the

(27:37):
pistol to shoot automatically more than one shot by a
single function of the trigger. You got it, write some
part of the bill. I mean you said that you
can convert it to shoot automatically. So a semi automatic
that converts into an automatically, but it's not a machine

(27:59):
gun and instantly right away. Once once you see some
of those the language come out like this, it goes
to show how stupid they are. It's a machine gun.
Oh my god, it's so scary. But then the the
language too about the the glock style. So if I

(28:23):
have a I don't know, how about a Smith and Wesson,
a Smith and Wesson M and P which I happen
to own. Uh, looks if you if you didn't know
the difference. If if you're a gun gun stupid, like
so many of the left are, you would look at
that side by side with a glock and go see
that they're so similar to each other. It's the same

(28:44):
type of style. It's the same style. You can't have that.
The losses. You can't have that. Oh you get a
six hour six hours look even more like a glock
than a Smith and Wesson does. Oh my god, you
can't have that. That's horrible, you can't do it. But
this is this is the left once again just being stupid.

(29:05):
So now there's a glock band in California for the
machine gun convertible pistol two again enforce a law that
is not being enforced with the law already says you
can't do that, but you do that. And of course,
who's who's the problem here? I mean, how many how

(29:27):
many people do you know that are that are out
just walking around on the streets with their machine gun
converted glock that's just out there shooting at Oh wait
a second, it's not the average person that's doing it.
Who's doing this? Oh yeah, that's right, it's the criminals.
It's the criminals. The gang criminals that are out converting

(29:52):
their glocks to full auto. So maybe I'm going out
on a limb with this one. You guys can help me.
I haven't had enough coffee yet, so I'm not fully awake.
Wouldn't it make sense I'm just throwing this out here,
wouldn't it make sense to, I don't know, go after
the criminals, the criminals who are breaking the laws that

(30:14):
you have. So do you think this is just like
what's in a dying fine scene. If you just turned
down your turn in your guns and put your guns down,
then the bad guys are gonna do the same thing.
Do you think that just because you passed another law
that the criminals will finally go ah, damn it, man,
we were breaking that one law, but now there's another one.

(30:36):
Oh man, all right, well, here here's my here's my
glock that's now a machine gun. Sorry, my bad. I'm
gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna go find something. You guys
want to go play pickleball? The mentality of the left
sometimes it's really truly unreal. Which, by the way, I'm
guessing that maybe crime in Chicago is now control because

(31:01):
over this weekend there was only ten people that were
shot and two people killed. So you know, the the
the wild crime spreeze and everything that's going on in
Chicago that that Donald Trump has had to bring in
the military and ice to to kind of take care of.
So nothing going on here. Look, we got crime under control.

(31:25):
Crime is completely under control, because if you look at it,
last weekend there were there were fifty people, fifty people
that were shot, seven people were dead. This weekend just
down to ten and two. So we're good. Thanks for
coming in, don have a fantastic day, carry on, And
of course Governor Pritzker coming out and he and said,

(31:47):
I love this quote. He said, Trump, if you come
from my people, you come through me. First off, I
don't think there was any coming through him, because he's
about two tons of fun. You climb up over him,
helicopter over him, maybe do some sort of adventure around
him or something, or you could just run him over
with the bulldozer. That would work too. But Governor, you

(32:10):
do understand that Trump is not coming after your people.
What Trump is doing is he is coming in after
the illegals that your people allowed into this country to

(32:31):
commit further crimes in your city, which by the way,
actually affect cut ready for this, your people, But again,
he's trying to do this narrative about how Donald Trump
He's coming after you. And yet the people of Chicago

(32:51):
they're starting to catch onto this as well, which is
kind of a nice thing. They're realizing that, Hang on
a second, Donald Trump. Look what he did in DC.
He cleaned up DC. Now he's coming in here and
he's taking these illegals out of here. Sure, the ultra
leftists are going to continue to melt down because, oh
my god, it's the worst thing in the world. Donald
Trump is coming in here and these innocent people are

(33:13):
that are doing these gang activities and shooting at people.
He's just he's being a big, bad meani. But the
average person who is sick and tired of the violence
in their community, sick and tired of the card jacking
that happens in their community, sick and tired of all
this crime in their community, they're seeing what's happening. This

(33:35):
is one of the reasons why people like Brandon Johnson,
the mayor of Chicago, has such a low approval rating.
He's in the single digits in most polling. People do
not trust this guy. And yet he's out here trying
to bash on Donald Trump for coming in to take
care of the illegals, which, by the way, keep this
one in mind. You remember last year Brandon Johnson looked

(33:56):
at the people of Chicago and said, hey, we need
one hundred of millions of more tax dollars so that
we can take care of the illegal aliens. So, if
you're a property owner here in Chicago, we are going
to raise your property taxes so that we can pay
for the illegal aliens that are in this city. Now,

(34:17):
if we could only get a halfway decent, maybe semi moderate,
middle of the road Republican to run for mayor of Chicago,
just to see what would happen. Right, we gotta take
a quick break here, we gotta. We'll be right back.
This is the Brian Rush Show. Good morning, Happy Monday,
and happy Columbus Day, and again happy birthday to Charlie.

(34:40):
We'll be right back, all right, Welcome back to the show.
This is the Brian Rush Show right here at the
Florida Man Radio Network and of course also streaming live
on Rumble dot com and Wimkin dot com. Good morning
all my rusties over there, and both of them thank

(35:01):
you so much for checking us out today. Appreciate it.
And of course remember that today is Columbus Day, Columbus
Day as in Christopher Columbus, not Indigenous People's Day, which
you know what, I totally support having an Indigenous People's Day,

(35:23):
just not today. Have another day of the year where
we can honor the Indigenous people. Let's do it, let's
have it, but not today. So sorry, Liberals lost another one.
By the way, anybody see the stock market on Friday,
I don't know what the hell happened. Is probably all

(35:44):
Donald Jump's fault. Donald Duff is ruining the economy. It's
the worst thing in the world. Yeah, it did actually
take quite a little of a bit of a beating
on Friday. The stock market across the board, not only
the stock market, but even crypto currency took one hell
of a hit on Friday, and I honestly wasn't paying

(36:04):
much attention to it until I saw a headline and
then I was like, oh really, let me let me
take Oh god, why did I look at that?

Speaker 1 (36:12):
There was?

Speaker 5 (36:14):
Yeah, that was that was not a good day on Friday.
But you know what, this is the thing, despite the
fact that the left now is going to be jumping
on it. Then oh my god, say Donald jumps just
drying the economy. Stock market didn't do this under Joe Biden.
Yes it did. Actually, you know, with when every president,
there's it up, there's a down, there's a good, there's
a not so good, there's an even better, there's not

(36:34):
so better. It happens. It's it's part of the stock market.
But if you are somebody who invests in a long term,
you know, you know that there are going to be
these days. And the good thing about it for me
is that there was some stock that I was actually
looking to buy because it's it's a company that I
know that in the future is going to be okay

(36:56):
and is going to do well because it's a transportation
company and it transports a lot of our goods. And
I've looked at that and said, you know what, they're
having a little bit of a problem right now, which
is sometimes a good thing, especially if you want to
buy the stock, and considering how big it is, it's
one of those it's too big, too important to fail,
so one way or another it will straighten out and

(37:17):
bounce back. So I've been waiting for that stock price
to drop, and it drops significantly, especially on Friday. And
while I was looking at the rest of my stuff
on my app I'm sitting there looking at I go, dar,
don't look at the losses on that. Just go ahead
and buy these things here and you'll be okay later on.
So yeah, not Donald Trump's fault. It's just kind of
how it works. But here's something else that happened over

(37:39):
the weekend which kind of surprised about, kind of pleasant
about because the fact that I owned talk to that company,
Disney finally had a number one movie, Tron. What is
this like Tron? Like eight point? How many Tron movies
have we already had at this point? I mean, I
just remember the original one, the original one, and I

(38:00):
haven't watched it any other. Maybe this is number three,
I don't know, but either way, actually turned out to
be fairly decent in the box office, number one over
the weekend. But I did also see that they are
looking to do yet another X Man, and with this
they're going to make what is the name, Xavier the guy,
the head guy. I guess they want to make him

(38:21):
black because we got to change it because we have
to be so politically correct and all this other stuff,
and look, just stop doing this, Disney, seriously, stick to
the storyline. If you want to do a new storyline,
a new leading character that is black, is Hispanic, as

(38:41):
an immigrant, is an illegal, as a gang member, is gay,
straight up, down, left, right, trans whatever it might be.
Just go ahead and create something. But then again, when's
the last time that Hollywood actually created something they? I mean,
look at Jimmy Kimmel, can't create anything. If it was
for Donald Trump, he did nothing to talk about he

(39:02):
really would. But again, congratulations, I guess to Disney for
finally getting a number one movie. Maybe you understand what
it kind of take. Stay out of the politics completely,
stay out of the politics, stop going woke, and you
will actually start to do well when it comes to
the movies. What's that Ricky invest in in? What is it?

(39:25):
Graphic oxide companies? But you're in the future. Yeah, I
I do actually have a bunch of a bunch of
investments in a lot of mineral companies, one of which
did not do well on Friday. Actually, I think that's
not completely crash if I'm not mistaken. Oops, But yeah,

(39:47):
you're right. Some of the the the precious earth minerals
and the mining companies that mine them are another good
one to invest. But by the way, don't take investment
advice from me. Seek your profess seriously, otherwise you're gonna
win some money, lose some money or whatever. What's that?
And I wonder why Disney has tanked and they don't

(40:09):
give them a second look anymore. You know what, A
lot of people don't give them a second look anymore.
But here's the thing with Disney, and I hate this line,
but it is kind of a realist line sometimes that
hold too big to fail, and Disney is one of
those companies. Disney is one of those companies that is
too big to fail. And I think that it's going

(40:31):
to go through a lot of pain. And it has
been from a pure business standpoint, it's gone through a
lot of pain because of the the woke agenda they
still have. And I've got a friend who is actually
on the who was on the board of directors, and
he kind of filled me in on a lot of
stuff what's going on there. But there is an internal

(40:52):
battle to get away from the wokeness. You know, you
have a couple of woke people that are still in charge.
Some things. You got some people that are that are not.
There a lot of investors that are that are kind
of upset about some things. And and look, Disney at
one point was a huge money maker and it can
be and should be again soon. But it is one
of those companies that again, as much as I hate

(41:15):
to say the phrase too big to fail, because here
in Florida alone, with the theme parks in Orlando, whether
you like the parks or not, I mean me, I
haven't been to one of the parks in years, but
I will go to Disney Springs because there's a few
restaurants there that I enjoy going to, and it's a
different kind of atmosphere, different attitude, it's not the whole

(41:38):
normal Disney thing. So I'll do that. That's like the
extent of what I do for Disney. But Disney still
is a massive financial draw to Orlando. And I know
people go, yeah, but there's Universal. Yeah, Universal still doesn't
bring in the number of people that Disney does. So
for the state of Florida alone, Disney is actually a

(42:01):
very big important thing, and they need to get back
to what the company's basics were, and that was entertaining
the people, get out of the politics, stay away from
that and entertain the people and read the room. That's
the most important thing. Read the room. And when you're
doing movies that we don't want to go see, stop
making movies we don't want to go see. Played and simple.

(42:23):
All right, We got to take a break for news
here at the top of the hour. We will be
right back. Good morning, and thanks for listening.

Speaker 1 (42:35):
Brian Wilson's name, you know the brand.

Speaker 2 (42:41):
Line up the airwaves in this one. Melting snowflakes were
the fiery half talking truth.

You can't always stand. Don't show from coast to coast.

the change and give it a toast to the man
who roasts the most.

Speaker 5 (44:11):
All right, welcome back down number two of the Brian
Rush Show here in Florida Man Radio and of course
streaming on Rumble dot com, Wimken dot com as well
for all of our rusties. There are always a lot
of great conversations that go on in the chats, some
of them a little on the warped side, I'm gonna
give you that, But then again, maybe that's one of
the reasons for why I kind of like you guys.
So welcome back to the show. And you know, one

(44:32):
of the things that I love watching and seeing happen
is the leftists that think they've got their thing going
on and it backfires on them. By the way, Also,
and Happy Columbus Day, not Indigenous People's Day. We don't
celebrate it that way anymore. Donald Trump did the executive
order the king that he is. Because remember there's another

(44:55):
no King's Rally coming up. We'll talk about that. So
it is Columbus Day because we we we love the Italians,
as uh as Donald Trump said. But I love when
you see some of these nitwit social media influencers and
those on the left that that that tried to act
all big and tough and and act like they're there's
somebody special, only to see it blow up in their face.

(45:16):
And in this case it literally did. There's a pro
Hamas social media influencer who is known by mister f Afo,
And this is a guy who he would do things
like he would post celebrations of the the October seventh
terrorist attacks, and then he would post videos of himself

(45:38):
crying at the Israeli military. He he also did things
where he would like, uh, do these fake videos like
he's recovering the hospital and you know, all this other
stuff and and tried to be all mister big and bad.
Well guess what happened. If you haven't heard about this.
Over the weekend, there was some more violence that erupted

(45:59):
in in Gaza, but this time it was not Israeli
related violence at all. Instead, it ended up being Hamas
and some Palestinian militant groups kind of got at it
a little bit, and well, mister f Afo got shot

(46:19):
in the head. Oh and he's dead. So you know
what they say, mister f a Fo thefa And you
found out another one of the influencers that we have
to deal with any longer. And and again, you know,
over the weekend, a bunch of violence did did pop

(46:40):
up in the Gaza area, but despite what what the
left is gonna want to be, it ended up being
clashes between local militias who finally said enough is enough
and they they kind of took on some of the
the Hamas terrorists. The reports are the dozens have been

(47:02):
killed in Gaza during the violent fighting that happened yesterday
within hours of the expected release of hostages in the
war torn area. According to what are the statements that
came out, the clashes between local militias had come to
a head, especially for mister Fafo of a television televised
address in which Prime Minister Benjamin and Yahoo called the

(47:24):
immigrant hostage release the beginning of a new path, and
the Israeli president had cautioned the campaign is not over
and there are still very great security challenges ahead of us,
and locals said gunfire had sent families fleeing in panic,
and one witness ended up telling the BBC that this
time people weren't fleeing Israeli attacks, they were running from

(47:48):
their own people m running from their own people. So
you mean to tell me that there's a problem internally
in Gaza with the Palestinians. That can't be. That doesn't
make any sense, right, goes against everything that we've been
told over and over and over again. But we are
seeing some amazing developments in the Israeli Gaza conflict. President

(48:12):
Trump this morning he spoke along with a whole bunch
of other people following the release of the hostages to
the Israeli government and essentially what is what is there? Congress?
So he did that this morning. And of course there
are multiple times where Donald Trump was sitting there and
and keep in mind, he didn't fly in and just

(48:36):
go and go in there and you know rest and
really no, he flew in there last minute did all
this stuff that he's got to do. So's he's a
little on the on the tired side. And he had
a few times when we were sitting in the chair
where you would see him, you know, he would kind
of close his eyes a little bit and he's listening,
kind of nodding his head, and you know that people

(48:58):
like hair Bear, air Bear is gonna come out and
they're gonna be like, look at Donald Chubb he couldn't
even stay awake during the Israeli hostage speak he was
falling asleep over there in Israel. Say this is horrible.
Donald Trump's the worst president in the world. He's gotta go.
I mean, don't want to talk about the fact that
he is ending hasn't ended, but he's ending the conflict

(49:20):
and got the hostages released and said, you know they're
gonna be out there talking about how how, my god,
he was falling asleep. By the way, pat the person
who got shot in the head and unalived and you
know what, I'm not I'm not even going to social
media correctness on that one. He was killed. He was
dropped dead. It was a a pro Hamas pro Palestinian

(49:44):
influencer called mister Fafo. The Nave's so appropriate. I love it.
But it is interesting and historic again to watch what
is going on in Israel and to also see both
Palestinians and Israelis celebrating the same time for the exact

(50:05):
same thing. You know, there is some potential that is
going on there in the Middle East again with peace.
And even though Donald Trump did not win the Nobel
Peace Prize last week, which I think most of us
knew it wasn't gonna happen, even though there was a push.
And the excuse that they're that they're kind of giving

(50:26):
is well, the committee met months ago, and they stopped
the voting months ago. And that was the reason why, Bs,
because you did it for Barack Obama. Don't give us that.
Barack Obama made a post election speech about you know,
peace in the world, and YadA, YadA, YadA, and y'all went,
oh my god, Barack Obama, and then you gave the

(50:49):
guy the Nobel Peace Prize for giving a speech. But
it was kind of ironic to watch the recipient of
the Nobel Peace Prize first off, come out and thank
a bunch of people, and then dedicate her Nobel Peace
Prize to Donald Trump for the efforts that Donald Trump
is doing for peace around the world, and especially for

(51:10):
peace that the recipient is trying to get in Venezuela,
which again doesn't make any sense because we're told over
and over again about how Donald Trump is so mean
and evil and bad for Venezuela. Yet the opposition leader
to the socialist dictator in Venezuela dedicated her Nobel Peace

(51:35):
Prize to Donald Trump for the efforts that he's doing. God,
this entire show I got, I'm spinning. It's so confusing
today to try and figure out the complexities behind the
leftist message and reality. It's so hard. But here's another

(51:55):
thing I would love to see get a little answers on.
And this is a problem. There's a British billionaire who
is now cut hitting his funding to US left wing
groups after a watchdog report came out. Now, the first
part that I have on this is excuse me, he's
doing what you have a billionaire in another country, an

(52:20):
ally of ours, no less, but in another country, who
is funneling money to left leaning organizations in the United States.
And after the report that was released by the Americans
for Public Trust which accused the charity that British billionaire
and hedge fund manager Christopher Hahn is basically donating money

(52:48):
and fueling political radicalization through massive financial contributions. Again, follow
the money. This is nothing that needs to be done.
We need to follow the money. More on who's actually
funding some of these people? Had Who is a guy
who manages about sixty billion dollars in hedge funds for
the Children's Investment Fund management also chairs the Children Investment

(53:13):
Fund Foundation, which is a London based charity with it
estimated about six billion dollars in endowments, and the CIFF
announced towards the middle of last week that it would
be redirecting future funding away from US based organizations and
restructor is grants towards non US entities, following concerns raised

(53:38):
by apt's findings. They said in a public statement that unfortunately,
we are no longer confident in our understanding of the
US policy environment for foreign funders of US NGOs, including
the international work which is our focus. Now. The fact

(54:00):
that this group wants to do international work, okay, that
that sounds respectable. It sounds like, you know, an honorable
thing that you want to you want to help out.
I mean, the United States of America. We do so
much charitable stuff around the world, some of it, as
we all know, thank you to doje in our own
common sense was not exactly on the up and up.

(54:21):
But we know that we've done that. We know that
we've gone around and we've helped, you know, struggling countries,
and we've gone out and done a lot of charity
work because we're we're great people. This is what we do.
But you find it that you're not confident in understanding
the US policy environment for foreign funders of US NGOs,

(54:43):
Why don't you come out and actually say what you
really truly mean, what you really truly mean is that,
oh crap, we just discovered that the Trump administration is
going after these these NGOs, the the non government organizations
here in the United States for fun the radicalism of
certain groups in the country. And we don't want to

(55:05):
be part of that because well, we have a reputation
to maintain, and we have sixty billion dollars worth of
assets that we are managing, and we're a children's fund.
So we're gonna step back away from this before before whow,
somebody got kicked out of People are getting kicked out
of Donald Trump's speech in Israel. You low life pieces

(55:28):
of crap. Seriously, what is wrong with you? Pick up,
beat him up. I'm watching it live by the way,
Beat him up, grab him by his nose, hears yank
him out there you go, yeah, take his phone with
him too. There you go out, you go see you
kick him any ass on the way out. That would
have been nice. It's like the Israeli Protection Force there

(55:49):
that they have like their their secret service. They jumped
up and they're like, not today, that was fantastic. I
love it. We were talking about oh squirrel, see, this
is why I should never have the t be out
of the studio get distracted. But this organization sponsored by
this billionaire, you know, finally realizing that, oh, we can't
give to these NGOs because we're going to get in trouble.

(56:13):
They were, they were get in trouble. Uh, there are
stopping before Daddy Trump spanks Dad Booty exactly. That's exactly
what they're doing. And what's interesting is is going to
see who else is going to do the same thing.
And I've said this before that one of the best
ways to stop the left in this madness that we're
seeing take away their money. If you take away all

(56:37):
of their money where they're no longer able to get there,
hundreds and hundreds or thousands of dollars worth of gas masks,
If all of a sudden, you haul and trucks are
not able to show up with all these pre printed signs,
and if people are not being able to be paid
to be protesters, a lot of this stuff might go away,
a lot of this violence that the left has promoted,

(56:59):
will go away, cut off the funding to this stuff,
because you know that these losers that are out in
the streets that are doing this stuff, that are committing
these crimes and the violence, they're not doing it because
they've got extra income. It's not because hey, I worked
overtime last paycheck, so I got an extra day's worth
of pay. Let's go cause some havoc. No, no, no, these

(57:19):
people that don't work, they get paid based on these
NGOs and other charity groups that are giving them money.

Speaker 1 (57:25):
There.

Speaker 5 (57:26):
This is how they survived. This is how they're able
to do all these protests and become violent. So if
you cut it all off, as it should be, and
I'll give this guy props he saw the writing on
the wall. I mean, he shouldn't have been doing it
to begin with, but I'll give him prompts that he
saw the writing on the wall and said we're not
going to be part of that. But he also went

(57:46):
on to say that consequently, cif's board has decided that
as a precautionary measure and until applicable laws and rules
and the execution of them are made clearer by relevant authorities,
CIFF should redirect its funding to and restructure its contracts

(58:07):
to be with non US NGOs. Now they're gonna have
something else to complain about the left because, oh my god,
Donald Jump, he's taking away all of our money, and
all the people are donors. They're not donating to us anymore,
as they should. Again, if you want to, if you
want to donate to a charity that is helping out children,

(58:29):
that is helping out the people in need, great, But
when you start donating to groups like Antifa and Black
Lives Matter and all these other things, and of course
they're trying to go, well, we're just we donating to
the n g os. We had no idea the ngngos
we're gonna be donating. Shut up, yes you did, and
admit it. You've been caught. You've been busted on this.

(58:51):
But we're gonna see a lot more of this happening
in the near future, with more and more of this.
The report that came out from APT that was released
last month detail how CIFF had funneled more than five
hundred and fifty three million dollars into US organizations between
twenty fourteen and twenty twenty three. This is a foreign

(59:11):
entity again, getting involved in US politics. It's all about
the money. Follow the money and stop that from happening.
That's all we gotta do. All right, we got to
take a quick break. We will be right back. This
is the Bride Rush Show. You listening to Florida Man
Radio and watching on Rumble and Wimkin, be right back,

(59:39):
all right, Welcome back to the show. Happy Columbus Day.
Thanks for checking us out today. Do appreciate it. Hopefully
you've got the day off. Me No, I'll be I'll
be working all day on. Today's supposed to be my
day off actually from the other job. But now because
today is a busy day I'm gonna be doing a
little bit of work today. But good news is is
that I'm I'm gonna end up taking Taco Tuesday off. Actually,

(01:00:02):
now that I think about it, that's probably not good
news because then that means Taco Tuesday free to do
things all day long. Probably have a Mark read or too. Anyhow,
Welcome back to the show. I'm loving the of the
left's responses on things right now. It's great. The newest
response and the newest talking point that is out on

(01:00:23):
the government shutdown because the health insurance one is starting
to implode on them, so they have they've got to
figure out something else, which, by the way, this is
another thing to be aware of because people are going, hey,
when is the when is the shutdown going to end?
I will tell you exactly when the shutdown is going
to end. Are you ready? Let me get the calendar

(01:00:43):
out here. It's either going to be one of two days.
It's going to be on Sunday to nineteenth, or it's
gonna be one week from today on the twentieth. That
is when the shutdown will come to an end. And
the reason for why I'm saying that is because on
the eighteenth, which is next saturd or this coming Saturday,
there is another No King's Rally that is scheduled around

(01:01:07):
the country, and of course the big one being in Washington, DC.
And the Democrats can't get out of the shutdown prior
to the No King's Rally because the No King's Rally
is coming in and happening because of the shutdown. So

(01:01:27):
if the Democrats go off and they decide to do
what they need to do to reopen the government, which
remember this all lands in their lap, then when the
protests happen on Saturday to come in and protest Donald
Trump being a king and shutting down the government. The

(01:01:49):
script might get flipped. So people like Chuck Schumer at
this point is scared out of his mind that, oh,
we can't reopen the government now because they've got this
going on. So the new line that you have is
that Republicans, and this is a quote from Chuck Schumer,
Republicans control the Senate, the House, and the White House.

(01:02:10):
And this is something that they're saying over and over
and over again. The Lincoln Project came out with a
meme that they sent out to all their minions and
it says, blaming Democrats for the shutdown when you control
the House, Senate and the White House only proves you
can't govern. Open it up. Go ahead, open it Why
don't you open it up? Well? Because stupid as you're

(01:02:34):
trying to sit here and act like you know what's
going on, and you know all the Republicans, they're the
ones who are in control in the Senate. You have
to have sixty votes, and while yes, the Republicans have
the majority of fifty three, you need sixty votes to
vote for this to reopen the government. You needed sixty

(01:02:57):
votes to avoid the shutdown, and because of the fact
that Democrats decided that they wanted to shut the government
down over healthcare for illegals, which now, of course they're
backtracking on that because they realize, oh crap, we got
busted on that lie too. Now they're trying to say, well,

(01:03:17):
it's all the Republicans' fault, it's Donald Trump's fault. Look,
he's got control of the House, in the Senate and
the White House, and well he can't govern. Can't govern? Huh?
Or is it because of the fact that Chuck you
Schumer is actually now afraid that he is going to

(01:03:39):
lose his seat in the next upcoming election when he
is up for reelection. I think maybe that's what it is.
But I always love when they start to go down
the list of different excuses, different blames, the different storyline,
and when the Democrats start changing it up, that is

(01:04:00):
when you really know that they're losing the battle. They
lost it with the healthcare thing, because simply put the
healthcare battle about how they're coming out and saying, oh
my god, millions of Americans are going to lose their
health care. Hang on a second, fact check, No, the
only people that are going to lose their healthcare? Are

(01:04:20):
the one and a half plus million illegals that shouldn't
have been on it to begin with, you know, the
ones that you've told us over and over again that
it's illegal for them to get even a single penny
of money for health insurance. Yet there's one point five
plus million of them that are getting it. Well, that's interesting.

(01:04:40):
And then the other four million or so that is
on Medicare and Medicaid that shouldn't be on it are
able bodied workers who are actually able to meet or
not able to meet the requirements to be on that,
so they shouldn't be on it.

Speaker 7 (01:04:55):
All.

Speaker 5 (01:04:56):
The rest of America's population is not going to to
lose your health insurance because it's all private health insurance
and it's not that big of a deal. And oh yeah,
it's not actually gonna go up higher. This is all
a lie and you've been busted. Damn it. What do
we do now? What do we do?

Speaker 1 (01:05:11):
Quick?

Speaker 5 (01:05:11):
Somebody give me another line. Oh, they're in charge of everything,
that's right. They're in charge of everything, So it's their fault. Now,
what happened to the healthcare thing? Weren't you afraid that
Americans were gonna lose. No, no, no, it's not about that.
It's not about the healthcare. We didn't we knew who
said something about healthcare? Did you guys see something about healthcare?
I never said anything about healthcare. That's what I want
it was. It's all because Donald Trump is such a

(01:05:35):
bad president and he's such a bad leader that even
with the control of the House, the Senate, and the
White House, the Republicans they just don't know how to govern.
And this is the reason for why you have got
to vote for Democrats coming up next year in the
midterm elections, because we're gonna be here for the American people.

(01:05:56):
Did I get that talking point?

Speaker 1 (01:05:57):
Right?

Speaker 5 (01:05:58):
Okay? Yeah I did? Okay, all right, so Republicans bad
Democrats could all right, that's so, what is your plan?

Speaker 1 (01:06:10):
Huh?

Speaker 5 (01:06:10):
What's your plan for improving healthcare? Nothing wrong with healthcare.
Everything's fine in healthcare. Donald Trump is bad. He's a
big dummy head, and it's his fault. They're so desperate
right now, it's ridiculous. We gotta take a break, be
right back making liberals cry one happy show at a time.

(01:06:44):
This is the Brian Rust Show. All right, Welcome back
to the Monday Show. Hello, Happy Columbus Day. Hope you've
got the day off and you're just kind of chilling
around the house doing a whole lot of nothing. It's
a beautiful weekend, by the way. I hope you enjoyed
this weekend. Yesterday I finally did it, got out and
they got a little bit of golf in. Let's just

(01:07:06):
leave it at this. It was. It was a good time.
My buddy John and I we went out and played
played around of golf. We have not played in a
while because both of us have been stupid busy and
we normally we're the two that would golf like almost
every weekend. We had golfing all the outing all the time,
so we were constantly golfing, and it has been months,
says we had a chance to get out in golf.

(01:07:27):
Yesterday was just absolutely gorgeous. Weather started off a little
on the cool side, started off having to wear a
windbreaker along with a quarter zip and a shirt. But
by the time we got to about you know, halfway
through the front nine, the windbreaker was coming off, the
quarter zip was coming off, and turned out to be
a beautiful, beautiful day. I hope you had enjoyed it

(01:07:50):
as well, mister fakes. Though you might be onto something
on here. One of the many things when it comes
to this government shutdown, the government shutdown, and this is
almost on the conspiracy level, almost, But at the same time,
you do know that the Clintons were supposed to be
subpoena to testify in front of Congress. With the shutdown

(01:08:15):
not happening, things make you go home. I don't think
that's the actual reason for the shutdown, but Jo was saying,
I mean, we're supposed to do it, and all of
a sudden they just they can't now because of the shutdown.
But another thing that's going on to the shutdown too

(01:08:36):
is again now that the rechanging of the message. Den boy,
I'm telling you, seventy two degrees is jacket weather. Here
in Florida. You get below eighty and it's pants. You
get below seventy two to throw a jacket on anything
under that you're turning the heat on gets pretty bad.
But Amy Kosherbar is now coming in and she's chiming

(01:09:00):
and changing kind of the tune a little bit, and
they're trying to do everything that they can, the Democrats
to get away from the health care thing because they
realized they're busted on that line. That whole idea of
health care is the reason for why why we had
to shut down the government because the Republicans don't want

(01:09:23):
to give Americans their health care and then come to
find out that's not the case. And it was a
complete line. It was all about health care for illegals.
And again, health care, not health insurance. Remember it's how
you play the words. Not a dime has been spelled
that health insurance, which again is the law, but also

(01:09:44):
a lie because there was a million and a half
people that were on Medicaid or Medicare, one of the two,
and that is health insurance. But then there's also the
subsidies for the Obamacare which have been paying for the
illegals health care and small regional hospitals all over the place,
which is becoming a problem, and that's got to kind

(01:10:04):
of go away. But Amy Koscherbar came out on Friday
night on CNN on the Arena and she responded to
a question as to whether or not the Democrats have
held that you should or shouldn't shut down the government
over policy before by saying, no, it's about the budget.
So Amy koscherbar comes out when she was asked the question.

(01:10:28):
In the past, Democrats have said policy is not a
reason to shut down the government, right, and she said no,
But this is about the budget. The budget is a
statement of value. The budget is about where we're putting money.
They choose to put a whole bunch of money in
the pockets of wealthy people, with big, beautiful betrayal of

(01:10:49):
a bill. That's why they did, and they put much
of They put us in much, much bigger debt and
as a result, triggered Medicare cuts that already had Medicare
cuts in there, and they didn't correct. They didn't correct this.
So that's their value. And now we have this moment

(01:11:10):
because another budget's coming up here and another decision about
how we're going to spend money, and this is the
place where we should do that. First off, Amy, there's
not another budget that is coming up. When she's saying
another budgets. By the way, she's referring to the continuing resolution,
which will be Continued Resolution two point zero for the
twenty twenty five twenty six fiscal year. Because we know

(01:11:32):
how government works now, I mean thirty years ago, they
would do a budget today they do spending plans aka
continuing resolutions, where they would do like they're trying to
get now, which shut the government down, which would have
kept us going through November, at which point they would
have done another one which would have kept us through

(01:11:54):
like February, and then another one which would have kept
us going through like June or July at which would
have done another one to get us to the end
of the year, which means we are still spending the
same levels that we did last year, and the lives
before that year and the levels before that year, because
Congress can't do a balanced budget. That's what it boils
down to. Either they can't or they won't one of

(01:12:16):
the two. But they are so desperate at this point
now to get the fight away from healthcare. And you're
going to see this all this week now that they've
pointed it out. Pay attention. They will come up with
a million other excuses as to why the government is
shut down. And they know that they're going to reopen
government next week. They know it. And the reason for

(01:12:39):
why is because of the no Kings rallies that are
going to be happening on Saturday. The Democrats cannot reopen
government until that rally is over, Otherwise it will backfire
on them and those people will get angry and they
will go after people like Chuck Schumer and the no
Kings people will start to back people like AOC to

(01:12:59):
take his seat in the Senate. Now there's one good thing,
one good thing about AOC replacing Chuck Schumer. With Chuck
Schumer gone and out of the picture and out of
the leadership role, then that puts AOC at the bottom
of the barrel and not in a leadership role, and

(01:13:20):
it'll take her a little while for her to get
up to that point. But then again there's a lot
of bad because well she'll be there for six years,
and well she'll be there, and that's just not a
good thing. But again, we will see a resolution to
the shutdown. I can almost guarantee you it's gonna happen
probably Sunday or Monday of next week. That's when we'll

(01:13:42):
see it. May maybe Tuesday, we'll give him half a
minute to think about it. But if the order comes
out on Friday, because remember the way that the recall
to Washington goes is that they tend to try and
give them forty eight hours, they gotta give him a
forty hour recall. So if Speaker Johnson sends out a

(01:14:04):
message to all of the House members that we are
going to be back in session on Monday morning, you
watch there's going to be a vote in the Senate
on Sat. Sunday or maybe Monday, and then we'll see
everything open up. This is the game that they are playing.

(01:14:24):
And again, you don't want to piss off the know
kings people because then they'll come after you. And the
rally is scheduled for Saturday, and it's a rally that
they have to go after Donald Trump for, which is
going to be interesting considering all of the things that
Donald Trump has successfully done, including the peace deal and
the getting back of the hostages to Israel. And I

(01:14:48):
will send that other phrase again, they love free, free Palestine.
He did it. What now, you can't be a king? Okay,
well what is he doing this being a king?

Speaker 1 (01:15:01):
Well he's not.

Speaker 5 (01:15:03):
He's taking away the money from things. By the way, troops,
this is another one I love. And this is the
thing that the left. They were using this as a
talking point that Donald Trump and his in the Donald
Trump shutdown because he won't give legals healthcare I mean
because he what are we doing now? We're something different? Right,
it's not healthcare something else. Oh, it's just Donald Trump's

(01:15:25):
in competence. Oh, that's what it is. Okay. So Donald Trump,
in his shutdown of the government, has made it so
that the military is not gonna get paid. Oh hang
on a second, what did he just post. I'm using
my authority as commander in chief to direct our Secretary
of Where Pete Hegseth, to use all available funds to
get our troops paid. On October fifteenth. We have identified

(01:15:48):
funds to do this, and Secretary heg Seth will use
them to pay our troops. Oh my god. Now we
can't criticize Donald Trump for not paying the troops. What
else can we say? That it's gonna make Maga turn
on Donald Trump? Donald Trump, with the with the with

(01:16:11):
with this. Now the the Ice agents, I say, yeah,
that's it, the Ice agents. They're not gonna get paid.
And it's all Donald Trump's fault because he doesn't know
how to govern. God, these people they're so desperate. It's
it's it's almost on the pathetic side. Now let me
rephrase that it is on the pathetic side. But the
other thing that we're now watching the the left get
worked up about. And honestly, when I first saw the headline,

(01:16:35):
I and I even posted it, and then I actually
took that post down. I was like, what the is
this about? But remember when Donald Trump got that big
fancy jet from Cutter, that there's gonna be strings attached
and that there there's gotta be something. And Donald Trump,

(01:16:55):
he's he's making some deals that's gonna benefit him. The
news came out on Friday about how Pete Heggsath, and
I think some of the language that Pete Haggsath had
used kind of confused the situation because I saw what
Pete Heggsath said, and even I went, wait a second,
building a base here on the US soil. We don't
let anybody build a base on US soil. And of

(01:17:17):
course the left went nuts over the idea that Cutter
is going to build a base here, an air force
base here on US soil in Idaho to be able
to train their fighter jet pilots. As I looked into
a little bit more, they're not building a base here

(01:17:42):
on the US They're Cutter is not doing an air
Force base here on US land in Idaho. What is
happening is that Cutter, as part of the deal with
them buying a whole bunch more of our planes, we
are going to allow them. Like, by the way, I

(01:18:02):
don't know if anybody else knows this, I can tell
you the life doesn't know this. We train most of
our allies. Let me say that again, the United States
of America, our Air Force, our Army. We train our allies.

(01:18:23):
We train our allies at Egland, we train our allies
at Tyndall. We train our allies up at Rucker. I
was gonna say the new name of the base, but
I forgot the hell the name is. So we're just
gonna go with Rucker Ford Rutger. We train our allies there.
There is absolutely nothing new to this at all with

(01:18:47):
us training our allies. Now what's going to happen with Cutter.
They're going to build a facility, which a facility means
a few buildings that they're going to be able to
build on one of the bases for their people. That
we are going to train them on how to use
some of the fighter jets. So like we have been

(01:19:10):
doing for many, many decades, we are going to be
training our allies how to fight lefties. In case you
didn't hear this in the back, the thing that we
have been doing for many, many decades, many decades, at

(01:19:34):
least a half a century, if not more, training our
allies on some of our bases. Cutter is not getting
a base of their own here on us soil. It's now,
what's going on? Speaking of going on, what the hell's
going on in this corner? Birthday boy Charlie who, by

(01:19:57):
the way, he has spent more time in the studio
today and he has ever spent during the show. And
right now he is doing some goofy, climbing up the
side of the chair, spinning around upside. I don't know
what the hell he's doing, but it just distracted me
out of the corner of my eye. But the left,
now they're trying to say that see Donald Trump, in
his corruption, he's so corrupt that he got this multimillion

(01:20:20):
dollar jet and in exchange he's going to give Cutter
and Air Force base on our property, on our homeland.
And that's not the case. And again a lot of
the reporting of it over the weekend was very misleading. Again,
when I first saw the first headline of it, I
was like what the f And I actually questioned it

(01:20:41):
for a second, going no, and then I looked into it.
They're simply building some facilities, not a base, some facilities
to assist with the training that we are going to do,
like we do with so many other governments around the
world that are our allies. But the left, we told you,

(01:21:03):
We told you there was strings attached to the jet.
Now look at what Donald Trump is doing. He's so corrupt.
We tried to tell you, but you didn't want to listen.
We listened. We just realized you're stupid. All right, We
got to take a quick break. We'll be right back.
Good morning, all right, Welcome back to the Brian Rush

(01:21:30):
Show here at Florida Man Radio and streaming on Rumble
and Vimpkin as well. Thanks wroking up with us today.
I do appreciate it. I swear to God. Charlie knows.
Today's birthday. You know, people, sometimes I don't think give
our pets enough credit and props for being as smart
as they really are. He knows, but I think he's

(01:21:53):
finally warmself out you going on? Anybody? Yeah, okay again,
Today's the day that Charlie has spent more time in
the studio with me than I think he's ever done.
I mean the fact that we are almost two hours
into the show and actually at this point he has
been in the show in the studio for about two hours.

(01:22:13):
At this point he left for a minute, which meant
he probably went to go poop and then stand outside
of his robot cat box and watch it, which is,
by the way, the funniest thing. Animals do, the craziest
little things. And this little dude's got so much personality.
I don't know where he gets it from. But one
of the things that he does, and it makes me laugh,

(01:22:35):
because he's got one of those robat litter boxes that
you know, once you go in and do your thing it,
it goes through and cleans up all the stuff and
puts it in the other little bin and you know,
makes it all fresh for and everything. And he will
go in and he knows it's gonna happen. He'll do
whatever it is that he's got to do, and he
gets out and he turns around and he will sit

(01:22:57):
about a foot away from it, and he says right
up and looks right at it and doesn't move like
I mean, he becomes rock solid still doesn't move, and
he sits there and he watches it, and then when
it's done, he goes over and he inspects it because
he knows that if he moves just a little bit,

(01:23:18):
and I've watched him do this before, where he would
shake his head or move or whatever, and the thing
would stop because he's got motion sensors on it. And
he's now gotten to a point where he realized that
if I want to watch this and we let it
complete all the way, I can't move. So he'll do that.
He gets out of the catbox, sits there, very still
watching it. It does its whole cycle, goes back, and

(01:23:41):
then he walks over check it out. Those little guys
are smarter than we give them credit. Sometimes I think
somebody that that does not get enough credit for being
as dumb as they are, and that is the Democrats.
And I love this Brian Crass, Current Crass, the stand Crass,
the Stein Crass, whatever. This guy's an idiot. He posts

(01:24:03):
a lot of really stupid things. But we'll see this
too from Hairbear as well, where there's a sign and
he posted a photo and he says signs in rule Nebraska,
so in rural Nebraska, which probably in some like remote
area a a closed up photo of a fence with

(01:24:27):
a sign that has Trump sucks. He wasn't shot, he
didn't win. He's on the list and an upside down flag.
Oh my god, it's over. It's so over for Donald
Trump and MAGA. I don't know what we're gonna do now,
because guys, there's signs in rural Nebraska on a fence.

(01:24:52):
There's there's three signs there. Oh my god, the humanity,
it's gotta be over. Now, what are we gonna do?
Harry Sissan does that same exact thing where he will
find the one person in a crowd that'll be like, hey,
I hate Donald Trump. I'm a Republican. I don't like
Donald Trump. See, oh my god, you guys, amazing breaking

(01:25:15):
news right now, an American Republican doesn't like Donald Trump.
It's over for MAGA. We told you the Republicans are
turning on Donald Trump. It's the worst ever for Republicans
in MAGA. Give it up, you losers. We're gonna take over.
We're gonna win. It's one person, Harry, It's one person.

(01:25:36):
By the way, I saw video yesterday with Don Lemon
doing his man on the street interviews. This guy give
it up, Donnie, give it up. He was asking a
woman and this was in New York City of all
places as well, talking about Donald Trump going after the illegals.

(01:25:57):
And the woman said, well, they committed to crime, Well
it's it's And his response is, well, it's a misdemeanor.
And you can see the look in this woman's face like,
oh Jesus, you're not You're not that dumb son, are you.
And he continues to push with her, and she's pushing
back on this and he's like, well, it's not criminal.

(01:26:19):
That's that's what a mistermeanor is well, no, he's he's
he's They don't just because they broke the law, it
doesn't make him a criminal. Holy Jasmine Crocket, What is
going on here? Don Yes, if you break a law,
whether it is I stole a piece of one penny

(01:26:41):
cent bubblegum from the candy store or I mass murdered
one hundred people at a fair, you're still a criminal
because you broke a law. I mean, obviously the the
punishments are going to be considerably different, but you're still
a criminal. No, no, no, no, no, you don't what you don't

(01:27:03):
understand is it was a misdemeanor. Okay, So what Donald
Trump had done, by the way, in several of the
things that they've gone after him, was a misdemeanor that
they upped to a felony just to go after him,
even though he's the only person in the world that
has ever been charged with that as a felony. Because

(01:27:25):
it's actually a misdemeanor, you're still a criminal. You still
broke a law. That means you broke How in the
world did Don Lemon last so long on CNN? But
watching that video and just seeing the level of stupid
coming out of him, and watching this woman in New
York City that he was fully confident he was gonna

(01:27:46):
get that perfect SoundBite from just tore him up. But
then again, the part that I find the funniest is
that it ends up being Don Lemon who ends up
releasing the video. Dude, you were owned.

All right, Happy Columbus Day, Happy Monday. I hope you
got the day off today. Thanks so much for checking
out with the Brian Rush Show here at Florida Man
Radio and uh streaming on Rumble and Wimpin with all
of our wimpinnits and rusties that we call on you
guys over there, Thank you so much for checking us out.
So I just learned something new during the break, and
I'm going to explain what I learned new during the break,
which is amazing to me as somebody who's a pilot.

(01:30:05):
I had no idea that this was possible, but apparently
it is. So I'm gonna explain to you what's going
on with the shutdown. Obviously, there's things like the air
traffic control of the ATCY. They are not all of them,
but a lot of them are funded directly by the
government because they're actual government employees. Not every airport, like

(01:30:27):
perfect example, the Panama City Beach Airport, the Northwest Florida
Beaches International Airport, is an airport that is not directly
paid for. The air traffic tools not directly paid for
by the FAA. They're not like an FAA control tower.
It's a contract control tower. Now there may be some
issues with them getting paid too, but apparently with without

(01:30:49):
them getting paid, there's gonna be some big, big problems.
And according to CNN, some Democratic aids have privately acknowledged
their willingness to maintain the shutdown for weeks. If we're
Publicublicans do not agree to include taxpayer funded healthcare benefits
for illegals in the final funding package. Hang on a second, wait,
I thought that was a hangout?

Speaker 1 (01:31:08):
What what the hell?

Speaker 5 (01:31:09):
That is not supposed to be in the talking points
say it says it right here. You're not supposed to
say that anymore. But I guess you know, secretly, privately,
they'll they'll, they'll say it. But CNN also reported that
party leaders believe they can sustain the standoff so long
as public perception is in their favor, and according to CNN,

(01:31:32):
congressional Democrats are privately preparing to hold their positions in
the shutdown standoff for several more weeks if Republicans do
not agree to their healthcare demands, and not even a
missed paycheck for US troops will force them to yield.
And another outlet has also cited unnamed Democrat aids And
this is where I learned something new. I didn't realize this.

(01:31:56):
They said that the party would not back down short
of planes falling out of the sky. Now I have
flown a couple of different style aircraft, and here's something
to know when it comes to aircraft. When you're flying

(01:32:17):
a plane, if you've never flown a plane, there's these
things called checklists, and there's multiple checklists for multiple different
parts of the flight, starting with the pre flight checklist.
And with the pre flight checklist, what you do is
you go through this list of system checks, flight control checks,

(01:32:38):
just precautionary checks making sure that the airplane is ready
to fly, and this is before you even turn it on.
Once you get into the plane, there is another checklist
for turning the airplane on. There's another checklist depending upon
the plane that you're in, for a pre takeoff checklist,

(01:33:00):
things you got to do before you actually take off
with the airplane. Once the airplane is ready to take
off and you take off and you start to climb out,
there is yet another checklist for after you are climbing
out into the sky for you to do next to
prepare the plane just for regular flight. Then there are

(01:33:22):
in flight checklists, there are emergency checklists, There's all kinds
of checklists for things. And then when you go to land,
there's a pre flight checklist, so there's checklist of all
these things you got to do to make sure that
the plane is ready to land. Once you land the plane,
there is yet another post flight checklist, a post landing

(01:33:44):
checklist that you have to go through. And then for
some airplanes some companies, there is a post shut down checklist.
So once you turn the power off the airplane and
you're ready to get out, there's another checklist for you
to do. So there are checklists out the wazoo for
different airplanes. And like I said, I have flown four
or five different types of airplanes that I have flown,

(01:34:06):
and I've gone through all these checklists. The one thing
that I have never seen on a pre flight checklist
or any other the in flight or postflight checklist was
make sure that the government funding is there, because if
the government funding isn't there, the plane is going to

(01:34:28):
fall out of the sky. So lo and behold. I
was completely educated by this. Thank you to an unnamed
Democrat aid who is letting us know that the planes
can fall out of the sky if we don't reopen

(01:34:49):
the government. I'm concerned now as a pilot, as somebody
who works in the private aviation industry my full time job,
I am concerned by this now because I had no idea.
I had no idea that we relied on the federal

(01:35:10):
government to be open for airplanes to fly. This entire time,
I thought it was all about this whole thrust thing
and the generating lift thing. I really thought that that's
what it was that created an airplane to fly. But
apparently if you also take away government funding and government
is shut down, an airplane can't fly, it won't stay

(01:35:32):
in the air for some reason. Government funding now defies
all laws of physics and gravity. So I'm glad to
be educated about this now. I'm glad that today. I mean,
think about this for today. If you've been listening to
the show at the beginning, we've been educated in a
couple of things that some most didn't know, like the

(01:35:57):
machine guns that glocks can be. The are now machine guns,
or at least you can convert it to a machine
gun with a thing that is illegal. But don't worry
about it, because we now in California have a law
to stop you from breaking the other law that you're
already broke, and that's why they made another law. And
the fact that airplanes can't fly without government funding. So

(01:36:22):
I just I feel I feel much better educated right now.
I feel safer. The next time that I go into
an airplane to fly it, I'm going to look for it,
as a matter of fact, in my my flight bags
my office. When I get to work, I'm going to
jump into my flight bag and I'm going to pull
out the two checklists that I have in there, and
I'm going to look for that, and I'm going to

(01:36:43):
get back to you if I find the segment there
that says, hey, you need government funding, I'll let you know.
Speaking of Gavin Newsom in California, another one of his
wonderful posts from the Gavin Newsom Press Office, which again
is a couple of blue haired liberals that run that thing.
It's not even him that's doing it. It's these people
that think that they're smarter and clever than Donald Trump

(01:37:06):
and his team, which have shown to be completely opposite
Donald Trump. He a couple of days ago went off
and played some golf with Kai, his granddaughter, And he
does this whatever he can. I mean, he loves to
play with her. And of course we know Donald Trump
loves to play some golf. So according to the Gavin
Newsom Press Office, he shut down your government, he increased

(01:37:31):
the cost of your healthcare, he raised your taxes while
cutting taxes for billionaires. Now he's golfing. Okay, Well, I'm
curious on this because I would think that if the

(01:37:53):
cost of my health care was going to go up,
which I get healthcare through my private employer, that and
maybe I need to check with HR. Maybe I need
to check out with HR on this because maybe I
didn't get the email. But wouldn't wouldn't we all be
notified that our healthcare expenses have gone up? I mean,

(01:38:14):
wouldn't that wouldn't that wouldn't you think that that would
be a requirement that you know, hey, by the way,
we're going to be taking an extra whatever out of
your paycheck now because Donald Trump is raising the cost
of your healthcare. Wouldn't that wouldn't that be a thing?
I haven't seen the email. I don't know. Have you
guys got an email from your HR departments telling you

(01:38:35):
that your health insurance is going to be going up
in costs? Because I haven't got it. I just want
to make sure I'm not missing something. I also want
to know where my taxes are being raised, because I'm
pretty sure that the the the tax cut bill didn't
say anything about raising my taxes. And when I last

(01:38:57):
saw my paycheck, I actually paid a little less in taxes.
So I'm trying to figure out where where my taxes
were raised. And and you know, the great thing is
that the industry that I work in is an industry
that caters to the billionaires and the billionaires. This is

(01:39:22):
this is part of the trickle down economics that that
the Democrats tell you doesn't exist when you have billionaires
who spend their money, which they do because look, they're
they're they want to go off and enjoy the finer things.
They also want to make more money. So in order
to make more money, they got to grow their business
so that their business grows, and then that results in

(01:39:44):
you know, more employees and more jobs and more tax
income and no, no, but one of the things that
the billionaires do is creation. The billionaires create jobs, they
create businesses, they create the opportun unities. And when you're
a billionaire who has a private plane, I'm going to

(01:40:05):
use this as an example for me. The company that
I work for, we have seen since Donald Trump has
become president, a tripling in our business, a triple which
means these billionaires are spending more money to fly to

(01:40:27):
the beach, to go to their multimillion dollar houses, which
by the way, are built by people maintained by people
who have jobs. So because of the billionaire spending more
money than that means myself and my team of people
all are getting a paycheck a couple of times a month.

(01:40:50):
Because the billionaires are able to go off and spend
a lot of money. Hang on, like, I gotta play
something in.

Speaker 1 (01:41:00):
Doing it.

Speaker 5 (01:41:00):
Stupidness again, all right, that's probably gonna die on me.
But that's all right. So the billionaires that they spend
their money on that, Now, just to give you an idea,
because I know that the left loves to attack private
aviation too, what happens with the billionaires when they spend
their money on their plane. First off, the home base
that they're at, they're paying for the people like me

(01:41:22):
in their home base to take care of their planes stuff,
which means people to fuel the plane, people to move
the plane, people to maintain the plane. When you fly
to a location, same thing, you're now doing that twice.
Now with every other place you go to, you're now
tripling it, quadrupling it. You know, there are a lot
of people that are that are employed. You also have

(01:41:43):
people that are going to be building the new planes.
And let me tell you there's a lot of new
planes that are being built. You have the vacation destination
like here on in the Panama City Beach thirty, a
area where they're gonna come in and they're gonna spend
a lot of money at the restaurants they're gonna spend
a lot of money at the stores. Again, they've got
their homes that have to be maintained, so that means

(01:42:05):
more people that are working. There's a lot of jobs
that are created from the billionaires. So while cutting the
taxes for them sounds like it's such a horrible thing,
the only billionaires that are not going to be billionaires
are the ones that spend their money without making more money.

(01:42:25):
So they're not going to make more money if they
don't spend more money on the businesses. Because the whole
you got to spend money to make money. That is
a true thing. You have to spend money to make
more money. So if you give them more money, they're
going to spend more money, and spending ends up being
a positive for well the middle class. But yeah, Donald

(01:42:48):
Trump went golfing. What about all the times that Joe
Biden went to the beach, that Joe Biden went on
a bike ride and couldn't get off of it without
falling down, All the times that Joe Biden would spend
hours on end sunning himself on the beach while Donald Trump, who,

(01:43:08):
by the way, I don't know if you ever paid
attention to when Donald Trump goes to play golf, he
doesn't just go by himself. He isn't just out there
on his own having a little fun playing some golf.
He's got people with him. He's talking business because I
can't tell you how much business is created on the
golf course. One of those things that happens. But again
the Left, they don't understand it. And their messaging is

(01:43:31):
just so desperate right now. And the one thing that
the left does not have is a plan. They literally
have a plan for absolutely nothing. They don't have a
plan on healthcare, they don't have a plan on lowering taxes,
they don't have a plan on lowering the spending. They

(01:43:54):
don't have They've got nothing. All they do is talk
smack on Donald Trump, and that is it. All right,
we gotta take a quick break. We'll be right back.
This is the Bride Rush Show. Good morning and happy
Columbus Day. All right, welcome back to the Brian Rush

(01:44:17):
Show here on Florida Man Radio. We're gonna have a
problem in the studio in a minute. The laptop that
we have that controls the bumper music, the music hearing
right now along with my clock, for some reason, is
not wanting to charge, and it's about to die on.
This is gonna be I'm gonna have to find a
Hang on a second, We're gonna find a clock otherwise

(01:44:40):
I'm gonna get screwed here in a minute.

Speaker 3 (01:44:43):
There we go.

Speaker 1 (01:44:44):
That's what I wanted. Is this right?

Speaker 5 (01:44:48):
Okay, that'll work? All right, Welcome back to the show.
Thanks so much for getting your day started with us today.
Hopefully you've got the day off today being that it
is Columbus Day, not Indigenous People's Day, by the way,
Columbus Day. Thank you Donald Trump for bringing that one
back to us. So the New York Times columnist David
Brooks has once again opened his mouth and said some

(01:45:08):
stupid things, which not a surprise really to anybody, but
he did it again on on News News Hour on PBS,
and crap, what did I just do? Hang on?

Speaker 3 (01:45:22):
Hang on?

Speaker 5 (01:45:23):
What am I doing?

Speaker 1 (01:45:24):
Damn it?

Speaker 5 (01:45:26):
Sorry, I'm I'm having a technology issue here. There we go,
that's what I needed. Okay, there we go, We're good.
All right, Sorry, there with me for a second. He
was on PBS's News Hour and they were talking about
the New York Attorney General Letitia James and how she's
now been indicted, and of course we know what the
deal is with this. This is just Donald Trump with

(01:45:48):
political revenge, right, has nothing to do with the fact
that she broke a law, because look, hey, she's the uh,
she's the one that is the the the person that's
above the law. So she's she's on the left, so
she doesn't do all this stuff and ap you right,
leif Ericson, he was the one that landed. And is
it October ninth that leif Ericson dany do we even

(01:46:10):
celebrate that here in the US leif Erickson Day? Or
is that just a thing that you guys celebrate over there.
But yeah, that is a by the way, I know,
O scroll moment again history because we've all been taught that, oh,
Christopher Columbus discovered America. Well, I mean, he discovered America
for the Spaniards, but he wasn't the first one to

(01:46:31):
discover America. It was leif Ericson with the Vikings that
discovered America from a more northern route. So yeah, they
really truly are. I don't know why we don't ever
give them credit. Maybe the story is just not that
fancy or it's one of those oh my god, it's
brutal because it's Vikings. Oh my god. But no, seriously,

(01:46:54):
for those who don't know that history of things, it
was actually at this point, I mean, honestly, is the
indigenous quote unquote indigenous people who allegedly came from like
the Russia land mass and kind of came over. That's
one theory. The other theory is, you know, when everything
was one continent and it's separated and you gotta But yeah,

(01:47:15):
as far as discoverers go, it was the Vikings. But
we still celebrate Columbus Day. I'm just saying, so anyhow, who'scroreled?
So back to David Brooks. Sorry, it's getting towards the
end of the day. Coffee's kicking in, ready to run
around the block a couple of times. But he had
said that this entire thing, it is obviously political. It's

(01:47:36):
it has nothing to do with the law. But Brooks
said he thinks that they were politically motivated persecutions, and
I somewhat agree with him. He said, but I don't
think that Trump would have been brought up on these
charges if he had been Donald Trump. And I think
that's true. I think we all can agree upon that.
When it comes to the things that they charged Donald

(01:47:57):
Trump with with the more mortgage or the bank loans
and all the they wouldn't have done it if it
was Donald Trump. But he continued on to say that nonetheless,
what matters is the evidence. And Latissa James, she just
accused of doing mortgage trod that would have produced a
benefit over the lifetime of a loan of eighteen thousand dollars.

(01:48:21):
Now you think about the numbers donald Trump inflated his
property values. They were not eighteen thousand dollars. They were
one hundred million times of that. And so the evidence
against call mey is slight, and against the James is
it would have no one would have prosecuted. We know

(01:48:42):
that because other prosecutors refused to do it, and so
this is clearly revenged prosecution. Well, hey, David, do a
little bit of reporting for a second, and realized that
nobody wanted to prosecute Donald Trump either until tons of
fun came out and said elect me, and I'm gonna
go after him. Remember, even some of the corrupt George

(01:49:05):
Soros prosecutors had said no, now we were we're not,
We're going to hard pass on this. Donald Trump process.
Now we're not gonna do it. Sorry, thanks, moving on.
They wouldn't do it, Letitia James would. But what does
it matter because we were He's trying to compare apples

(01:49:26):
and oranges here too that you know, Oh, well it
was only eighteen thousand dollars of the time of a loan. Well, yeah,
because she's buying a house, he was building a building.
There's a slight difference in the cost of the two. So, yes,

(01:49:46):
the amount of money saved in the two is going
to be dramatically different because well, it is what it is. House,
big old building, house building. Yeah, you're not gonna save
as much with the building as the houses. You are

(01:50:08):
going to be with the building. That's but it doesn't
change the fact that she broke the law. And it's
not a matter of did Leticia James value something at
a different price. She committed fraud? Yes, Donald Trump said, yeah, collateral,
I got it. I've got Let's see, I got this

(01:50:30):
building over here. It's worth two hundred million dollars. The
bank looked at it and said maybe one hundred and
seventy five million, not two hundred million. But we'll give
you the money anyhow. Donald Trump didn't go in and
fake paperwork and say, oh, yep, this is going to
be my primary residence so that I can get a
cheaper deal and a better interest rate, like Leticia James did.

(01:50:52):
That's illegal. You can't do that. She broke the law.
Donald Trump just said, hey, yeah, I got a build
that's worth X number of billions of dollars. What do
you think And the bank said, not quite as much
as you think it is, but we're still going to
give you the money. And he paid back the money.
There was nothing illegal that Donald Trump did. It was

(01:51:13):
all standard, normal operating procedure, normal business. This is what
they do. But they couldn't handle that. And Letitia James,
she broke the law. And because of the fact that
she broke the law, she's being busted. The Left has
got to turn this around and be like, oh my god,
it's all revenge prosecution. And it's very clear that it is.

(01:51:33):
If that is clear to you that that's what it is,
the New York Times should fire you because you're not
very good at doing reporting and looking for the facts.
Just saying we got to take a break for the
bottom of the hour here. We will be right back
in a minute, don't forget. You could check out the
show at the Brian Rustshow dot com. There's links for

(01:51:56):
the podcast and so much more, including knock It Off Coffee,
the official coffee of the Brian Rush Show. We'll be
right back. Oh that's right, all right, Welcome back to
the Brian Rush Show. Happy Columbus Day. Thank you so

(01:52:18):
much for checking us out today. Can I just point
something out which is just kind of wild and crazy
in a way, kind of wild and crazy. Anybody know
Demio is Demi Lovato, the former Disney star the Winlow
Craig Cray a little bit there. She also she went
down the road of transgendering to a degree. And I

(01:52:40):
don't know if anybody saw her when she did do
her transgender whatever. The girl went like she went on butch.
I mean it was. It was pretty hardcore on the
butch side, like you would expect her to be, you know,

(01:53:02):
chugg chugging down, you know, like cases of beer or so.
I mean it was. It was pretty pretty wild. I
mean it really was. She had a major, major manly
look to her. She's actually kind of been one of
the eighty percent of those that go down the transgender
wrote that have said, you know what, this isn't for me.

(01:53:25):
And during the break this is the reason why I
bring this up. During the break coming out, one of
the bumper musics that we had was her new song
that is out, and I just got to tell you
say about how she has how do we call it
transd transitioned, she de transitioned back into a girl and

(01:53:49):
damn so see it's entirely possible. And I hope more
than anything that more of these these young women who
had been fooled by the left and and that disgusting
behavior convinced themselves to go back because you can still

(01:54:11):
be beautiful. I mean, look as beautiful as the Demi
Levado may look right now now that she's converted back
to being a woman, which she never really did, the
whole conversion thing. She just cut her hair and got
a little fat. Now she's slimmed down, got the banging body,
the long hair, looking good. Yeah, she's still creat cry

(01:54:33):
though that's one of the problems because she's a Leftist,
so she's a little won't be out there. So as
we are facing more and more the shutdown and the
the lefts incredible, incredible efforts to try and label the
Republicans as the reason for all of this fixture. You're right,

(01:54:56):
it's hard to recover when you when you go from
hot to to taco, you can't recover. That one another
reason for why don't let it happen? And honestly, you know,
let's just for just a brief second. And indeed, boys,
you're right. Surgically, a surgical manipulation and hormonal damage can

(01:55:19):
be permanent. And it really can. And this is why
and I say it too that you know you be
you boo boo, but what you want to be when
you're a grown ass adult. Really, I mean, if you're
a grown adult and it's what you want to do,
and I don't care what it is you want to do,
you do it. Just just do what you want to
do with yourself. Just don't force it on us, and

(01:55:42):
don't come to us to expect to pay for your
mistakes and your problems. But it's the children, because that's
where where most of the transgender activity is happening right now.
It's not in adults, it's in children. And it is
virtually impossible to come back when you do the damage

(01:56:05):
to your hormones, When when you chemically I mean, obviously physically,
when you start altering your body, you're never going to
be the same, whether it be a face lift or
you know again, taco to hot hot dog to taco
con or the other way around, which morbidly, I have
a weird curiosity about that, like how do you do that?

Speaker 1 (01:56:26):
How do you?

Speaker 5 (01:56:27):
How do you? How do you? How do you something
that's not there? I just it's just just one of
those things. It's a curiosity would just go, how is
that even possible? Not that I want to know. I'm
just it's one of those how I mean, obviously the
other one I get it. And unfortunately me and my
friends we because we're idiots, and and we we'll talk

(01:56:49):
about some things, and I'm the one that goes, well,
hang on to say, there's got to be a video
explains that.

Speaker 1 (01:56:53):
Oh god, And.

Speaker 5 (01:56:55):
If you've ever seen how they make the uh, the
hot dog to taco conversion, Oh my god, I just
got some phantom pains just thinking about the video. Ooh ooh.
It's brutal. But you can't come back from that either,
So just don't do it. And we just got to
stop them from doing that on kids again. If you're

(01:57:15):
an adult. You're probably developed to where you're going to be.
And if you're great gray enough to think that you
should be a woman, whatever, that's your thing. But don't
expect us to pay for it. Really, seriously, we're not
paying for your your stupid Just just move it along,
move it along, and thanks so much. And d boy,

(01:57:36):
you're right. Makeup is miraculous. I mean, the things that
you can do with makeup. Now, while I do say,
you know that that what's her name, mister Rogers, land
of make believings, that's another way of putting it. While
Demie Loatto does look good, I mean, look, she's she's
always been an attractive girl, but when she went through

(01:57:57):
her her little man stage, she wasn't even an attractive man.
I mean it was, for the lack of a better
word or phrasing, she was very liberal, super ru driving
kind of look to her.

Speaker 1 (01:58:19):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (01:58:19):
And again, I I gotta admit this too, that there
are there are sometimes that there are some people and
this is disturbing as all get out. Uh, when when
you see some of these people that do do the transition,
transition that until you look a little closer or know
for a fact you kind of look and go, are

(01:58:42):
you sure that's a that's a dude. There's no way
that's a dude. Hang on, Oh hot dogs, it's scary.
But yeah, makeup though that does, that does do some wonders.
I mean, I've done some TV stuff in my earlier
part of the career, and you get enough makeup on

(01:59:04):
even this looks good. Just say, I've got some of
the pictures. Granted I'm also twenty years younger, but even
more than that, but it looks good. Can make up
help Greta Thunberg. Look, there's only so far miracles can go.
Miracles can only go so far.

Speaker 1 (01:59:24):
You know what.

Speaker 5 (01:59:24):
Actually, hang on, just because you said that, I actually
want to see how do I word this? You got
to always word it right in order for it to
do it creating picture picture, spell it right? Oh damn it.

(01:59:52):
Say this is what I This is what I get
when I try to do something live picture of Greta
Thunberg with makeup. I just I want to see, honestly,
what what AI is gonna be able to do. It's
probably gonna tell me we can't do that because we

(02:00:13):
can't alter people's say damn, you know what, now that
you've brought that up. Now that you brought it up,
makeup might actually be able to help get a Thunberg.

(02:00:33):
I mean, I'm not gonna lie. I mean, I'm not
gonna say that. Hi. How you doing? Hey, what's going on?
But you know what, what I'm gonna do. This is
what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna save I'm gonna I
get another one. I'm gonna save this one. I'm gonna
save this image and I'm gonna I'm gonna actually share it.
I'm gonna share it. I can't I don't think I

(02:00:55):
can't share that on on Rumble. I can share it
on on on Wimkens so you guys can see when
I just what I just saw and and you guys
can tell me. I mean this this is an AI
version of of of Greta Thumberg compared to what she
looks like normally, I mean not still not drop dead gorgeous.

(02:01:16):
But maybe makeup can save the girl. Maybe maybe there's
actually a hope for her. I don't know, you know what.

Speaker 1 (02:01:25):
Let me.

Speaker 5 (02:01:25):
I'm gonna also throw this up here on on Facebook,
Facebook dot com, Force Last the Brian Rush Show, just
so you can also take a look and be like, damn,
hang on, let me get this up here. Sorry, I've
gone on a completely different, different tangent here for the
end of the show, we'll call that if just so

(02:01:46):
I can explain this for somebody who just happens to
check out my Facebook page and not get the exploition.
We gotta throw a little content in there. Otherwise somebody's
gonna be like, why is Brian posting photos of Greta
Thunberg in hang on?

Speaker 1 (02:01:59):
Uh?

Speaker 5 (02:02:09):
There we go. All right, that was disturbing in so
many levels. But you guys over there on Wimken, please
tell me based upon the photo. All right, I even
forgot how we got here. I really did, and I
don't know how we got here. Uh so my apologies
for going down that bizarre road. But then again, that's

(02:02:31):
disturbing that even and again it was a I But
I mean, with the right makeup artist, maybe there is
hope for for that girl. I mean, mentally, the girls
Craig Cray, I mean, she she'd beyond on the Craig
Cray side, absolutely beyond on the Craig Cray side. So
there's probably no, no, no helping helping that girl. But yeah,

(02:02:56):
there you go all right, let's get back to the show.
So sorry, sorry for the distraction. Sometimes it's so easy.
It's like, ooh, squirrel, that wasn't just a squirrel, that
was like a whole pack of squirrels running down there.
Is Greta a dude. You know what, when you look
at the the he Man photos of Greta, there's questions

(02:03:19):
on that one because she's she's bulked up, and she's
she's got the the the the he Man bowl haircut.
I mean, anything's possible. I don't know what is that.
Rosie o'donald is beyond makeup. I want to agree with
you on that one, but you know what, hang on
a second, just because I've got again morbid curiosity again,

(02:03:44):
see create a picture of Rosie O'Donnell. I'm already getting
sick to my stomach on this one, but we're gonna
do it anyhow. Let's see what AI does. If AI
can actually create a good looking Rosie o'donald, AI is amazing. Eh,

(02:04:09):
all right, this one, I'm gonna I'm totally gonna give
you on this one.

Speaker 1 (02:04:12):
Dean boy.

Speaker 5 (02:04:16):
Oh, it's an improvement. That's not saying a whole lot.
It's just simply an improvement. Still a site that I
wish I could unsee. But yeah, and I'm not even
gonna post that one because it's just not worth it.
If you want to torture yourself with a a AI

(02:04:39):
making Rosie o'donald better looking photo, you can. You go
aft all you want, but I'm not sharing that one
because quite honestly, that just I gotta turn my stomach
a little bit. It's just it wasn't a very pretty sight,
not at all. All right, Thank you so much AP
for that. That major distraction. That was again that was
a herd of squirrels that came down through. But again

(02:05:02):
the Greta one, you guys have gotta admit it. And
I'm not saying she's hot, but you gotta admit it
compared to what she is in real life versus AI
and what they did with her. Somebody should present that
to her and be like, look, there's hope for you
after all. Not a lot, but there's there's a little bit.

(02:05:22):
All right. We got to take a quick break. We'll
be right back. This is the Brian Rush Show. This
damn show fell right off the rails again. We'll be
right back alright, welcome back to this train wreck called

(02:05:48):
the Brian Rush Show. It fell off the rails. And
you know when I started looking at some other AI
stuff during the break, I gotta stop doing that, I
really do. There is some danger to AI. It's entertaining,
is all get out, which, by the way, I can
I also point this one out. Charlie has been sitting
in the studio with me, my cat, Charlie, the baby
baby cat, who's like now, like I don't know, he's
like eleven or twelve whatever he is. He's been sitting

(02:06:11):
in the the the spare chair like the entire show.
He this is the longest he's ever stayed in the
studio with me. And when I started talking about the
Rosio Donald one, I actually looked over and he looked
up and he jumped down off the chair and left
the studio. So that's how bad, even the Rosio Donald one.
When when AI this is, this is how bad you

(02:06:32):
got to know it is. And somebody should probably let
Rosy O'donnald know this. When AI can't make you better,
you're screwed. It's done.

Speaker 1 (02:06:42):
It over with.

Speaker 5 (02:06:42):
When AI cannot make you a better looking person, it's over.
You're done. But there have been some really crazy AI
videos that have been out. Some of them just over
the top, ridiculous, kind of dumb, they really are, but
there have been some that have been entertaining and some
people that fall for him. Like one of the things

(02:07:03):
that I've seen a lot of has been a lot
of these animal related AI videos, things like the raccoon
riding the back of a bear. Those have been funny
to watch, but you know they're not real. But there's
so many people that will read in the comments going,
oh my god, that's so amazing. Yeah, it's amazing that

(02:07:26):
AI created it. Like there's one that I saw. There's
a Halloween one where there's a bear that's walking through
a front yard with a raccoon on its back, and
it comes up to a Halloween decoration and the Halloween
decoration scares the bear. The bear throws the raccoon from
his back, and the bear runs off and he runs

(02:07:46):
into a truck and the truck like lifts up off
the ground and the bear falls down and shake his head.
It was a real video that in the other one
too that a lot of people may have seen, which
is not a real video, and it actually took me
a little bit to figure out that it wasn't. And
that's the bunnies on a trampoline. I mean, that sounds
pretty funny, and the idea of of of bunnies jumping

(02:08:10):
around on a trampoline, it's kind of funny. And somebody said, well,
hang on, let's let's do an AI video of bunnies
jumping on a trampoline. So we are at a a
kind of a dangerous point. And this is one of
the things that I had said at the very beginning
of the the last presidential election, is that we have
to be very careful when it comes to AI, because
AI when it started off, at that point, it was

(02:08:34):
it was very obvious that it was fake and one
of my absolute favorites, and to this day still takes
the cake, even though they're they're incredibly poor equality of it.
And that was the the first person shooter games, you know,
the games everybody does where they connect on the networks
and all of those stuff and they talked to all
their friends. It was a series of those that was

(02:08:57):
done with with Joe Biden, Donald Trump, Barack Obama, Bill Clinton,
and George w where the two of them were all
in there or all of them were in there, and
a lot of it revolved around smack talking on Joe Biden,
and Donald Trump would come in and he would smack
talk Joe Biden, and then like Bill Clinton and and

(02:09:19):
George w and sometimes Barack would would give Donald Trump
some props for it, or they would try to attack
Donald Trump and then Donald Trump would come back with
some great smart ass remark. Those things were hilarious, and
it was also ones where when you watch them, you go,
this is fake. This is straight up fake, just like

(02:09:39):
the one where rond De Santis quit the race. You
remember that video, the AI video that came out of
of of of Ronda Santis saying, okay, well you know
Donald Trump, he spanked me around on the stage and
I'm I'm getting out of the race. And that was
so horribly fake, yet some people actually believe it was

(02:10:01):
really him. But today, some of the some of the
AI videos that we have today can be very dangerous,
especially when it comes into the political realm. And now
that we are going into such a political fight now
for twenty twenty six, it's gonna be interesting to see
how AI is used in the political world because unfortunately,

(02:10:23):
too many people are willing to accept the fake stuff
that they see on the Internet as gospel and as reality,
and we have to be very careful about that. I mean,
we obviously made some jokes here about Greta Thunberg, made
some jokes about Rosie o'donnald, and there's a lot of
things about AI that is very entertaining that we can watch,

(02:10:48):
we can laugh at, and quite honestly, I am not
impressed with Hollywood and the stuff that Hollywood puts out.
But as you know, I'm a social media ho and
I am on social media like crazy, so I get
to see a lot of what these creators do and
it's great content. Some of it is a little over

(02:11:08):
the top, but it's great content. But we're gonna have
to be careful when it comes to politics, because this
is one of the things that the politicians, especially the left,
are going to use, because the left, unfortunately, they are
a lot easier to persuade based upon fake videos. And
we've already seen the messages that they're trying to give
out for Donald Trump. There's another fake video that is

(02:11:31):
out and I shared this the other day because it
was hilarious, and I don't know if anybody saw this one.
But it was a protester getting up into the face
of a soldier and he was trying to give him
the drill sergeant, what is your name? Soldier? What is
your name? And he's like screaming it and screaming it,
And if you didn't know any better, you would think, oh, wow,
this is real. No, it's not real. It was fake.

(02:11:53):
And it had the greatest punchline because finally, in this
AI video of this happening, the soldier, who was staying
very plain faced the entire time, finally lifts up a
can of pepper spray and sprays it in the guy's
face and says, sergeant pepper, that's hilarious. But I also

(02:12:17):
saw the comments on that one, and so many of
these retarded leftists that get out there and go, oh
my god, look at what Donald Trump's military is doing.
They didn't need to do that. That was mean. They
shot it right in their face. Doesn't need to happen.
What's that Hollywood is gonna do? And Ai john Wick prequel,

(02:12:41):
you know what, that might actually be kind of good.
And here's the thing too, I don't have a problem
with Hollywood going all AI. I really don't because I
am over the Hollywood celebrities. I'm over the Hollywood celebrities
who feel like they have to be treated like some
sort of royalty. I'm tired of the Hollywood celebrities that

(02:13:02):
are making their billions of dollars and shoving it into
the average working day. Face the fact that we have
AI that does a better job than them, they do
it for cheaper than them. I'm just saying, if you
can provide me with some better entertainment, dance monkey, and
here's my dollars, take them all right, We got to
get out of here tomorrow Taco Tuesday. In the meantime,

(02:13:24):
celebrate Columbus Day today, enjoy the day off, enjoy the
weather wherever you are, and we will do it all
again tomorrow for Taco Tuesday. Have a fantastic day and
we will see you later. Bye bye,
