Speaker 2 (01:41):
Well, Hello, Welcome to the show. Happy Taco Tuesday. Thanks
so much for waking up with us today. I just
realized I'm not even wearing my Taco shirt today. Instead,
it's weird anyhow, Welcome to the show. Thanks so much
for waking up with us today. For this big old
taco Tuesday as we get get this madness. Man, I
really I was just going over all of the things

(02:01):
that I had to talk about today, and I'm just
again going, oh Jesus, where do we even begin with this?
And why is this the stuff that we have to
talk about every day? Because this is what's going on.
It's not like it's just you know, we're going through
the library and going, well, let's see what crazy story
we want to read today. No, this is real life.

(02:22):
It's real life that we're talking about today. Anyhow, how
you doing, You're doing all right? Yeah, I'm I gotta
admit today I feel kind of like, I feel a
little I don't know, I feel like a meatball. And
I think the reason for why I'm feeling like a
meatball today is because I found a recipe the other
day on I don't know if it was Facebook or

(02:42):
TikTok or what I found in someplace. And I'm kind
of a foodie, I know, I talk about all the time,
and I was like, you know what, these these look
really good. They're like a sweet and sour meatball thing,
and I was like, let's make this. So I made
it the other night and I have been eating meatballs

(03:04):
like NonStop for the past two days, and I honestly
feel like I'm turning into a meatball now. I really do.
I feel like I'm absolutely totally turning into a meatball
now because I've had too many of them. And anyhow,
let's be careful when you get down that road of

(03:25):
finding something delicious and you're like, I'm gonna eat make
a whole bunch of that, because that's when it ended
up happening to me. Anyhow, how to switch today's tacos
because it is a taco Tuesday. Don't forget that. You
can watch the show live on Rumble and on Wimken.
And good morning to all of my Whimkennits and rusties
on Wimken and everybody watching on Rumble this morning, and

(03:47):
of course listening on the Florida Man Radio Network coming
up later on on the show today. We do have
a guess that's gonna be joining us on the show.

Speaker 5 (03:57):
We have.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
Jeez, I just had a complete and utter brain fart
and it's so sad because it is a friend of
mine too. Say this is what happens ye eat timity,
damn meatballs and your brain turns into a meatball and
it just doesn't work. Can't believe that. I'm just completely
a Mark Mix. How am I forgetting Marks? You know what,
I'm gonna apologize to Mark later when I get him on. Yes,

(04:22):
I kind of feel like a spicy meat the bowl. Oh,
the worst part is the farts, though, I'm gonna be
honest with you. Nothing you want to hear that, But
that's the worst part because they were delicious and you know,
I've been eating them, like, you know, half a dozen
at a time or a dozen at a time. So
when that happened, woof, it's a good day to stay

(04:44):
away from me. I'm just saying anyhow, a lot to
talk about today, including the continued desire for Donald Trump
to take over and dominate the country like the dictator
that he is. Sorry, we just got we got his
like it is right, because we're being told that that's
what Donald Trump is. Donald Trump is this massive dictator.

(05:06):
He's the He's the next Mussolini. That's the new one
that's coming out, by the way, because apparently now the
whole calling him Hitler is starting to wear its course.
So now the only thing they've got is who else? Oh,
we haven't called him Ussolini yet, so that's what we're
gonna do, to call Himusolina. We'll get into that in

(05:28):
a minute. But yesterday we talked about how Snoop Dogg
had took his grandson to go check out one of
the Disney movies. What was it that he went to
go see. It was the God I don't even rember
what the heck of the movie? It was Oh light Year,
the buzz light Year continuation thing, and he was watching that.
Grandson had the questions about the fact that there was

(05:50):
a lesbian mom couple that was on there, and he
was upset about it, and he took social media about
it and he used some typical Snoop Dogg language, some
bombs on there that we can't say on the radio,
but he had a very valid point. Well, the Wok
mob is now coming after him. Didn't take very long.
There's now rumors swelling that the Wok mob is going

(06:11):
to be coming after Snoop Dogg and that his Australian
Football league may cancel his scheduled appearance after he criticized
Disney for jamming LGBTQ content into children's films. What is
wrong with the left. I mean seriously, this is a

(06:32):
question I ask every single day what is wrong with
the left. And it doesn't matter what the topic is,
every topic that there is out there, they completely go
into like this extreme. And again, tell me that liberalism
is not a mental disease or mental disorder of some

(06:54):
sort because you have an absolute inability to think logically
about anything, I mean absolutely anything. Hey, it's raining outside,
It's not actually rain. What it is? It's it's it's
it's a sprinkler system, that is. It's for just say

(07:14):
it is raining out, It's it's not raining. It's raining.
The water is coming from the clouds in the sky
and coming down on top of you. It's raining. It's
not rain. How did we get to this point too?
I mean it cause it's it's absolutely crazy. And I
know that a lot of this is because of our

(07:36):
quote unquote higher education system, where the higher education system
has been able to brainwash so many people. But the
thing is, you can still go to college and come
out as a conservative. You can go in as a conservative,
come out as a conservative. You can even go in
not knowing and still come out as a conservative. So

(07:57):
first to put the full barnb blame that it is
all just because of the higher education system. I don't
think is fair because I think that there's more to
it than just that. But the mental the mental health
aspect of liberalism, and I think that's exactly what it is.

(08:18):
It's all mental health that you are just I don't know.
I don't get it. I really don't. And it seems
like it's multiplying every day with people's inability to understand
and comprehend anything. And let's talk about Chicago for a second.
This is one of the things that's starting to add up.
We talked about Mayor Johnson yesterday, how Brandon Johnson is

(08:42):
coming out and basically giving us the whole and I
love this. The dude's got, by the way, six percent
approval rating. Six Let that sync in of how horrible
the city approves of you. And this guy comes out
and he says, we're going to against the Trump tyranny

(09:02):
in the city is going to rise up against it. No,
it's not. The city's going to rise up against your
dumb ass, is what's going to happen. It's not going
to be the other way around. But then you get
the governor. Governor Prisker who came out yesterday and he
had a press conference, And I want to play a
snippet of this because it's just one of these things
where you go, how, how are you this retarded? I

(09:28):
just I don't get it.

Speaker 6 (09:29):
Here we go, well, strangely, the President seems afraid of
me and won't call. So I have not heard from
the President, haven't heard from Secretary Hegseeth, haven't heard from
anybody from the administration about what their plans are. We
only read about it in the Washington Post and understand
that they have some plan that they've been putting together.

(09:51):
So we're making sure that we're prepared, that we're ready
to go to court, and that we're pushing back on
the narrative that he has that's somehow there is a
problem in the city of Chicago, that is some that
is worse than other cities across the country.

Speaker 7 (10:06):
Governor, this is all very intentional.

Speaker 3 (10:08):
You're floating right now in front of Trump Tower.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
Is there anything you can do to stop him from federalizing.

Speaker 7 (10:13):
The National Guard?

Speaker 2 (10:14):
Here, Look, we're going to take him to court.

Speaker 6 (10:16):
We're going to make sure that they know that the
court knows and understands that there is no cause for this,
that there is no emergency. There is no law in
the books that allows him to put federalized troops on
the streets.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
Of the city in Chicago. That's what we're going to
do to begin with, There's no problem in Chicago. Over
the weekend, there was about twenty something people that were shot.
Two or three of them were killed. This is a
repeat story that the media in Chicago has on a

(10:51):
copy and paste. They copy and paste and they changed
those two numbers of how many were killed, how many
were shot, and usually it's only by one or two
that they change it by There's no problems in Chicago,
none whatsoever. And then I love it because while Fatso
there goes off on his rant about that, the real

(11:11):
people of Chicago are also speaking up. Listen to this
woman who ended up taking to social media regarding what
Pritsker had to say at his little press conference.

Speaker 5 (11:23):
So I just finished watching an interview of Governor Prisker
of Chicago telling President Trump not to send the military
into Chicago after President Trump announced that he could potentially
be sending the military to Chicago next after he sent
them into Washington, d c. Which, by the way, after
he sent them into Washington, d C. The crime rate
has reportedly exponentially went down. So you have this governor.

(11:47):
He was standing on a boat, you guys, taking questions
from the press who was asking him how did he
feel about President Trump announcing that he would send the
military to Chicago Knicks potentially, And he's like, well, we'll
take it up legally.

Speaker 7 (12:00):
We'll we'll go We'll take them up in courts.

Speaker 5 (12:02):
Because you know, that's how the Democrats always operate, whether
it's illegal immigration or anything, they gonna go to They're
gonna go to court.

Speaker 7 (12:07):
They don't do nothing else. They gonna go to court.

Speaker 5 (12:09):
Okay, uh, because they got they bought and pay for
our attorneys and judges doing the bidding for them. At
any rate, this dude is on a boat saying how
safe it is in Chicago, and we, as you can see,
don't have any problems.

Speaker 7 (12:23):
It's safe.

Speaker 5 (12:23):
I just walked to down the street to dinner with
my wife. And he's taking an interview on the boat.
And he's and he's taking an interview downtown in Chicago.
Why didn't you have that interview on the South side, sir? Okay,
why don't you go to the south side and and
have that interview so we can really see the streets

(12:44):
of Chicago and how things are going on in Chicago,
because for years it's been reported that Chicago has had
one of the highest murder rates, okay, black on black crimes.

Speaker 7 (12:54):
For the party that loves to promote black.

Speaker 5 (12:56):
Lives matter, we didn't hardly hear anything about all of
those fielings that were reportedly happening in Chicago weekend after weekend.
But oh, don't let it be a white cop on
the black guy, because all we gonna hear that, nun
stop because y'all love to run that division, because that's
how y'all keep us stuff going against each other and
staying in power.

Speaker 7 (13:15):
But now that's coming to an end.

Speaker 5 (13:18):
It's just I mean, at downtown Dallas and on the
boat taking questions talking about Chicago is safe when we
know that it was nicknamed Chiraq for a.

Speaker 7 (13:27):
Reason because it was like a war zone.

Speaker 5 (13:29):
And like President Trump, they're said, there should not be
any inner city in this country that could's that looks like.

Speaker 7 (13:36):
A war zone.

Speaker 5 (13:38):
I mean, y'all don't have no problem taking billions and
billions of dollars overseas under the guys of humanitarian aid,
but you can't even do nothing for your own during cities.
And then when you have a man that's stepping up
trying to get the crime rate under control, trying to
close the borders, trying to do more for the set
of sins of the country, all of a sudden, y'all,
all y'all can do is go to court. The hypocrisy

(14:01):
is off the charts.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
That's just an average off the Joe citizen responding to
Governor Pritzker and all the stupidness that's going on. And
yet more and more of the Democrats keep coming out
and just they're blinded by what's going on. You have citizens,
the same thing with DC DC. You had citizens coming
out and going, I don't like Donald Trump, but man,

(14:26):
he did something good. Here did something great. Don't like
Donald Trump, but man, look what he did. And they
just don't get it. We got to take a quick break.
When we come back, I'm gonna hit you in some
more of the leftists that are just completely out of
control when it comes to that, Hang on, we will
be right back. Good morning, making liberals cry one happy

(14:51):
show at a time. This is the Brian Rusty Show.
All right, welcome back to the show Taco Tuesday. And
they're just so deranged with with what they are saying
about reality when it looks at the left again, the
average citizen in Chicago, the average citizen in Boston and

(15:13):
d C. And LA. They will tell you about the crime.
The politicians get out there and they say, there's nothing here,
there's nothing going on. Look, it's a beautiful Jamie Raskin
the latest idiot to jump up there. He was on
CNN in the arena and they were talking about, you know,
Donald Trump, and he even brought up this and this

(15:34):
is just the guy's such an idiot. When discussing the
President's potential sending the National Guard into Chicago, he said, well,
I think Governor Pritzker was speaking for the states and
the cities across the country. You know, nobody wants a
military invasion. We also don't want an illegal invasion either,
dip wad. But he goes on to say that I

(15:54):
think that Donald Trump and Steven Miller and the Trump
handlers through thought that he could that he would contract
or conduct some kind of Mussolini style military march across
the country, subduing all the local populations. But it's completely
backfiring on them, because it's really unifying all the local

(16:15):
communities against Trump and against the outrageous authoritarianism. They tried
to do it in California. It mobilized really not just
LA but the entire state against them, and now California
is jerrymandering back at the extreme jerrymander in Texas they
tried to do it.

Speaker 7 (16:32):
In d C.

Speaker 2 (16:33):
It unified the mayor and the city council and their
attorney general and the local attorney general, and the people
are now more empathetic about fighting for statehood.

Speaker 5 (16:43):
Lies.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
Every bit of that is a lie, first and foremost.
In California, he didn't go in there and take over
to do law enforcement. He sent the National Guard and
the Marines in there to protect the federal workers at
the federal buildings from the protest. That is completely different,
you dumbass. And on top of that, you have things

(17:06):
like the DC you're saying that it's unified the mayor
and the city council. The mayors actually come out and said, yeah,
this kind of worked. Donald Trump, he was right, it
kind of worked. And you have citizens who are taking
the social media at night, walking the streets of DC
and coming right out and saying, I don't like Donald Trump.

(17:28):
I didn't vote for Donald Trump, but I gotta admit it.
What Donald Trump is doing in DC is working because
in DC, Donald Trump came in and they federalized the
law enforcement and they went out and did what enforced
the laws. As a matter of fact, in DC right now,
there has been one thousand and seven arrests as of

(17:49):
last night. It could have changed overnight. There's been about
one hundred and eleven different guns that have been taken off.
Sunday alone, there was eighty six arrests and ten illegal
guns that we received. Eas He's managed to make DC
a safer city in twelve days time. By the way,
there hasn't been a murder in DC in twelve days,

(18:11):
which is like the longest streak GETS had in a
very very very long time. And then you get Kinsinger,
Adam Kinsinger, that dip wod. He comes out. He was
on CNN and they were talking about the whole Chicago
thing and he was asked, you know about Trump calling
Chicago a quote killing field and indicting and indicating that

(18:33):
he's going to send the National Guard in, and he
asked him what his opinion was that he said, yeah,
I mean, I fully agree. Just look at it. Just
look at some of this his ramblings. It's been like
completely different from what it used to be. But listen, Jake,
six minutes ago, the Republican Party believed in things like
local control, states should should be able to make their

(18:54):
own decisions, and communities. And now the president is ready
to power play. Let's be clear, particularly after you saw
him threaten Baltimore is doing this simply to try to
look tough, notte and not invited to Illinois and frankly
shouldn't be there. And he adds on to it saying
that here's the thing as a country we have to

(19:17):
think about. You could put a soldier in every square
mile and reduce this country to zero crime. I read
the book nineteen eighty four. I highly doubted maybe he did,
and that he's just using it as a playbook. That's
what they did there, and that is what we want.
Is that what we want to live in where you
just occupy every city because of so called crime. And

(19:39):
that's how dictators come to power. It's how authoritarians came
to power on the backs of safety and security by
the way, let me ask you this question, Adam, because
you're so intelligent, Why is it that the Boston PDE,
who has been ordered by may Or Michelle wou to
not participate and help out ICE, is now helping ICE

(20:04):
to help reduce crime. See, the military is not going
into DC and telling the citizens what they've got to do.
They're not going after the citizens. They literally just went
in there. And by the way, it's not really a
lot of the military doing it. It's more the federal
law enforcement that is working side by side with the
d C Metro and the DC Metro being led by

(20:27):
somebody who's got some balls, and they're going after criminals.
That's all they're doing. But it's a precari Sartian taking over. Yeah, right,
because that's what you guys want. You guys want to
take over. You guys want to be the authoritarians. You
guys are the ones that want us all to bow
down to you and say, what may we do? Government?

(20:49):
What may we do? The Republicans don't want that. We
want to live our lives, but we want to do
it in safety, and that is what Donald Trump is doing.
We'll be right back. Good morning, all right, Welcome back

(21:13):
to the show. Happy Taco Tuesday. This is the Ryan
Rush Show right here at the Florida Man Radio Network.
Also streaming on Rumble Whimkin dot com, Forward slash Brian
Rust Show, and of course you can check us out
at Dubryanrusshow dot com. We kind of fixed the website.
We brought it back to the old website because yesterday
my frustration was at a point of it was bud

(21:37):
blood boiling it. It was bad. I couldn't take it anymore.
I said, I said, ef it. We're just gonna put
it back to the other site and we'll work on it. Eventually.
We'll do an upgraded, updated site that'll look even better
and even cooler. But in the meantime, I didn't want
to have to punch any babies, and I was getting
to that point of anger, so I stopped and we'll

(21:57):
work on that later on. Anyhow, welcome back to the show.
So yesterday it was reported The New York Times reported this,
and so many others did as well. This is good news.
But kilmore, our Brego Garcia, the married Maryland man, the
immigrant who is who the US wrongfully deported to El Salvador,
because you know, that's it's where he's from. Wrongfully deported

(22:22):
him to El Salvador. Was taken into custody on Monday,
as a lawyer said, after the Trump administration indicated it
planned to deport him again, this time to Uganda because
they didn't want him to go to El Salvator. He
didn't want to go there. Well, all right, fine, but
here's the thing. You are here in the country illegally

(22:43):
and we are sending you out. You had the option
to go back home and all of your Democrat friends
through the temper tantrum and you had to come out
of there, and we brought you back here. And now
you're going to Uganda. And of course, Jasmine, I am
so smartin Crockett has got to take to social media
about this as well. And she comes out and she says,

(23:05):
let's be clear, and I love it. You know that
when somebody starts off with let's be clear, it means
that they're full of it. Let's be clear. Deporting Arbrego
Garcia to Uganda makes no sense. It's not his home country.
Nothing about this process has been fair. Ice is targeting
him with cruelty. This is the weaponization of government, not justice.

(23:30):
No sweetheart, this is justice. You have come to our
country illegally. You broke the law to come here. While
you are here, you are still a member of the
MS thirteen gang, which you were accused of also being
part of in El Salvador, which is one of the
reasons why you sent you there, that in fact, that
that's where you're from. And then you come to our

(23:53):
country and you conduct illegal human trafficking and sex trafficking. Yeah,
good question. Who's paying for his lawyers? It's probably some NGO,
some non governmental organization that is using our taxpayer dollars
to do it. I can almost guarantee you that who's

(24:14):
doing it. But there's plenty of things that are fair
to this congresswoman. First off, you're here illegally. You gotta go.
I don't care where you go, but you've gotta go.
We offered to send you back to your country. You
didn't like that. So when we had to bring you
back here so that you could face additional charges, only

(24:35):
to be found guilty on all of that, that we're
now going to send you out to somewhere else. You
don't want to go to El Salvador. Fine, well, we
have a deal with Uganda. You're gonna go there, but
don't worry about it, because I'm sure that you know,
the Democrats will probably work a deal out with Mamma
Donnie's family, and Mamma Donnie's family will probably get you
out of jail, and then you'll probably be working in
the slave trade industry in Africa instead. So who knows

(24:59):
what's gonna happen with you. But the level of absolute
ignorance that comes from the left with there, this doesn't
make any sense. How does it not make sense? I mean,
you're a congresswoman who represents Texas, and in Texas over
the past five six years especially, we have seen the

(25:20):
horrific things that are going on with the illegal immigration
in that state. You mean to tell me that nobody
has educated you on this, that you have not seen
it on the news, that you've not heard it from constituents,
that you've not heard it from your other fellow Democrats.
Because remember the districts that were right along the border
used to be blue. They're not anymore. I wonder why

(25:46):
it just doesn't make any sense. None of this makes sense.
I don't get it. It's like Adam Kinsinger and Jamie
Raskin coming on and going, I don't get there's no crime.
There's absolutely no crime that's going on in over there
in Chicago. Don't I don't understand what's going on. It
you know it's there. This is all made up by
Donald Trump. Oh so the twenty three people that were

(26:09):
shot this weekend and the two people that died, that's
not real crime, that nothing's happening. It's all It's all okay.
I mean, look, the governor got on a boat that
was secured by his security detail and got the pressed
on the boat and went out and rowed out into
the front of the Trump the Trump Hotel in Chicago

(26:30):
and talked about how there's no crime. Like I like
the woman in the clip that I played earlier, the
Chicago resident who said, why did you come to South Side?
Why didn't you come to the South side of Chicago
where the crime actually is, where the twenty three people
are being shot, where every single weekend there is violence,

(26:51):
where there's carjackings that happen on a regular basis. It's
amazing to me to watch these politicians that just come
out and be like that. I know that it's really
bright outside right now, but you know what it is.
It's there's lights. It's the lights. No, it's the sun.
Now it's lights are turned on, so if we just
turn off the lights, it won't be as bright. Now

(27:12):
it's the sun. It's daytime. That's why it's bright outside.
Now now it's not. I just don't get how you
could go through life being so incredibly stupid like they are.
You know, Brandon Johnson coming out again. The guy's got
like a six percent approval rating, like nobody approves of

(27:35):
what he's doing in Chicago. The same guy who came
out and said, I'm gonna have to raise the property
taxes and all the property here in the city is Chicago,
because we need to raise a few tens of millions
of dollars so that we can take care of the
illegal immigrants that are coming into our city and basically
just living off all of your ta Get back to
work so that we can pay for this. Will you

(27:55):
stop your complaining? I need you work making money so
that I can tax you more. And you think that
that the people are gonna just suddenly go, oh, well, okay,
since you put it that way, since you're just gonna
you're gonna tax me to death. Uh, You're not gonna
do anything about the crime in my city. And you know,

(28:17):
I'm seeing business after business fold up and leave the city.
And everything's gonna be fine as long as I pay
more taxes so that we can take care of the
illegals that have come into the country that are not
really truly being part of UH society and not contributing
to things right that I just want to make sure
I got the process down right. It's really unbelievable to

(28:41):
watch this and and again now we are starting to
see some of the the the pushback and and citizens
are are jumping up and saying, I mean, like the
one citizen played for Chicago. She she pushed back on
UH on the claims of Chicago. You see again, time
and time again, all these people in DC that are
take king to social media. Yesterday when we were talking

(29:02):
with with with Christina Bob who lives in d C.
And I've got a bunch of friends that live in DC,
and I'm hearing it from the same thing that yeah,
there's a noticeable difference in DC and the other thing,
by the way, that it's a very noticeable difference, and
the left won't admit to this because the left is
coming out and trying to make it out as if

(29:23):
the city has been militarized, that there's Checkpoint Charlie everywhere
and that you can't go anywhere. I don't know if
it was if it was on the air or off
the air that Christina was telling me about this, but
she was telling me about how just a couple of
years ago, for her to go to the office in DC,

(29:43):
she would literally have to go through some checkpoint areas
and sometimes have the show IDs just to get around
in DC. That's how bad it was. And now that
Donald Trump has come in and has cracked down on crime.
In the week that he has been doing this, you
don't see law enforcement at every single corner. You don't

(30:05):
see you know, these checkpoints all over the place that
they had set up. You don't see everything all fenced
off anymore. And why because you don't need to do that.
If you get in there and you number one, actually
enforce the laws, go after the people, and let everybody know, hey,

(30:26):
by the way, we're coming after the people. You make
it aware that if you're going to FA, you're gonna
find out about it, and that is going to be
a situation of being arrested. You have Judge Janine Piro
in DC who has come out very publicly said I'm
not messing around with you. You break the law, you become violent,

(30:48):
I'm gonna throw the book at you, pick it up,
throw it back at you again, then pick it up
one more time and smack you in the back of
the head with it. You're not going to simplice say, oh,
the police officer was mean to me, and then we're
going to release you. You're not going to come in and
simply get a sandwich in your photo taken and we're
going to release you. We're going to prosecute you. You're

(31:10):
gonna go to jail. Over one thousand people have been
arrested in the past week. Over one hundred guns illegal
guns have been taken off the streets of DC. And again,
you can walk around DC right now and there's not
police everywhere, mostly because the police are now outdoing their

(31:32):
job and they're not just standing around there because they're
not allowed to do their job. And then you have
the city of Boston, where Michelle wou again ranking right
up there, is one of the worst mayors in the
entire country, hands down. She's been saying that they're gonna
be a sanctuary city in Boston, that they're going to

(31:53):
fight the Donald Trump administration and they're not going to
let the police departments actually participate with any of the
ICE stuff. We're gonna we're gonna prevent it, but it's
not gonna happen. By the way, did you see that
the sheriff in that area was arrested for getting in
the way. It's about time some of that stuff starts happening. Which,
by the way, just so you know this for those

(32:14):
that are in the South, because there is a big
difference between sheriffs in the South and sheriffs in Massachusetts,
particularly the sheriff's departments in Massachusetts, they basically run the jails.
That's that's literally all they do. They do jails and parades.
Nothing against them, but that's just how it is up there.
They don't patrol like here in Florida, where you know,

(32:37):
we have the Sheriff's office that literally are out patrolling
and everything. They just do the jails and that's it.
But Michelle wou who is been the anti ICE, the
anti Trump, and she's taking this stance, and according to
the ICE director Todd Lyons. Boston police have now been
secretly providing critical information to the federal immigration officials to

(32:58):
help arrest criminal illegal aliens, which is being called a
very bold move that flies right into the face of
the sanctuary city policies which are being pushed by people
like Michelle Wou and other extremist Democrats across the country.
For years now, Boston, under Wu's leadership, has been one
of the loudest advocates of the sanctuary city movement. Now,

(33:21):
one of the things that they're doing there is also
they're giving thirty thousand dollars to illegals to find a
place to live and then providing them four thousand dollars
a month. And I know that Massachusetts taxes people a lot,
but where in the world are you getting that money?
And do you think that that is not going to

(33:41):
all of a sudden attract more people, that more people
aren't going to be like, Oh, I'm gonna go to
Massachusetts because I'm gonna get thirty grand for a place
to live and then hook me up four thousand dollars
a month. What do I need to get a job for.
I'm just gonna live off the system. But Boston is
starting to fall apart, and it's becoming evident now. And
todd Lyon said that when referring to the police, that

(34:03):
they can't cooperate openly out of fear of getting in
trouble or getting fired, but they're helping us anyway. See,
even under the threat of losing your job, of being disciplined.
The Boston police have even looked at it and said, yeah,
we're seeing. We know what it takes the wheel to
law enforcement. We know what it takes to actually fight

(34:25):
law and to go after crime. You have to do it,
and they're now doing it secretly. So this might be
the beginning of the demise of Michelle Wu if lucky.
I'm just telling you people in Massachusetts they need to
they really really need to step it up a little bit,
especially there in Boston, and realize that a leader like

(34:47):
Michelle Wu's not what you need. You don't need her
coming out with Mariachi bands to convince you that we
should be spending you know, millions and millions of taxpayer
dollars on illegals, and that we should be stopping the
police from keeping the city the safe. I mean, there
was a time I lived in Boston for a little
over a year, and when I lived in Boston as

(35:08):
an eighteen nineteen year old kid, I could literally walk
from one end of the city to the other and
never have any problems. Now, when the lights go dark,
you stay out of the streets, you don't go out anywhere.
And it's all because of these ridiculous leftist policies. And
they don't get it, they don't see it. They don't
see the problems. But the people do see the problem.

(35:32):
And finally a lot more people are coming up. Oh,
I'm sorry, they're not dumb, it's mental illness. I have
some compassion, Brian, I'm sorry, you know what. You're right,
You're right. I need to have a little bit more
compassion for him. You know, you guys are such a
bunch of smart asses. And this is why I love
my audience so much. We got to take a quick break.
We'll be right back. Don't forget. You can watch the
show on Rumble dot comwimked dot com of course listening

(35:54):
to it right here on in the Florida Man Radio Network,
and check out the show at Florida Man Radio and
at the Brian Russhow dot com. We'll be right back.
They say he's got good jeans. I'm just glad he's
wearing asks. This is the Brian Rust Show. All right,

(36:17):
welcome back to the show. Happy Taco Tuesday. Thanks for
getting your day started with us and working through your
day with us or ending the day however it might
be if you're watching the podcast, the video cast, or
listening to the podcast later on the day, Hey, how
are you? I hope you got some tacos. I'm crazy
some tacos now because I been eating meatballs for two
days because I ate I made too many of them

(36:38):
and that's I've turned into a spice to meat the
battle over here. Can't wait to get some tacos later today. Anyhow,
welcome back to the show. Appreciate you listening more the
mental illness, the mental illness that has literally taken over
the left, and again, tell me that it's not some

(37:02):
sort of a mental defect liberalism that you are. You
just have zero ability to rationally think about things, to
think about the actions that you're about to take, the
things that you're about to say, and go does that
make sense? Like this one? This is typical of the left.

(37:26):
You have an illegal alien who has come into this country. Illegally,
goes to California, can't speak a lick of English, can't
read English. He's horrible with everything, and gets his commercial
driver's license. He is now driving around the country not
understanding because remember one of the things that happened with

(37:47):
this guy, and you know who I'm talking about, the
truck driver in Florida that killed the three people. During
his interviews by law enforcement, they were trying to figure
out his comprehension of English because he couldn't speak it.
And as he did that, the majority of the highway

(38:09):
signs that they tried, they're like, hey, flash card, do
you know what this means? You don't. This is a
standard sign you see in the highway that you're driving
an eighteen wheeler on that you should understand. You'd had
no idea, no no idea. This is how bad this
guy was. He goes to California, gets his driver's lecense,

(38:34):
drives around the country, comes to Florida, makes an illegal
U turn, which nobody in their right mind would ever
think that this was a smart idea to do, because,
first off, in the state of Florida, even though they
do have that new law where they're going after and
out for going too fast, which I got to remember
that when I go to Orlando and Jacksonville in a
couple of weeks. We drive fast. We're pretty quick. Here

(38:59):
in the state of Florida. There's no putting around. I mean,
there are some people to put around, and you got
to say the hell out of the left lane, by
the way, but we move. So the idea to take
an eighteen wheeler and go all the way over to
the right lane and think, without even looking that you'd
turn and make a U turn through a sign that

(39:19):
says official use only that means you're not supposed to
use it, and you make this U turn, not get
out of the way of trafficking. Time a car plows
into your truck, kills three people. And what does the
left do Rather than the left being upset or what's

(39:41):
that word they use all the time, compassionate, showing a
little compassion for the three individuals and the families who
were just murdered in the streets of Florida because of
this person's ignorance, They turn around and they do a petition.

(40:02):
Oh yes, a petition, the petition demanding leniency on the
illegal immigrant trucker who killed three people on our Florida highways.
Two point two million signatures as of Saturday. I don't
even know how many more they're at this point, but
since Saturday, two point two million people have thought that

(40:26):
it's okay and that we should ask for leniency on this.
The petition which was created on change dot org, which
calls for Florida Governor and DeSantis to basically commute the
sentence if convicted, and that this was nothing more than

(40:48):
a tragic accident, not a deliberate act. You gotta be kidding.
When I watched the video, the dashboard cam video of
the driver with his reaction as he turns the wheel

(41:10):
without even checking to see if it's safe to do,
which he should have been doing to begin with. But
he didn't even really check. He just comes across and
then all of a sudden, slam, this car goes screaming
into the truck, killing three people. His reaction was, well, now, okay,

(41:31):
we'll stop the chuck, We'll put the air brakes on.
Huh boom. I wanted to punch him in the throat
when I saw that, I wanted to punch him in
the throat, open handed punch, to grab whatever I could
to rip it off of his throat, reach down into
his heart and yank it out of his body and

(41:51):
show it in front of him like Indiana Jones, and
watch it stop beating in front of him. That's how
pissed off I was when I saw that. And that
was before I even learned that the guy was an
illegal alien who couldn't speak English, who couldn't read English,
and is out driving a truck on our roads. And
these two point two million idiot leftists think that it

(42:15):
was just it was a tragic accident, and the governor,
if he's convicted, should commute his sentence. Y'all need to
get some serious help, is what I gotta tell you.
All Right, we got to take a break here for
our time of the hour. We'll be right back. This
is the Brian Rush Show. Good morning, and thanks so
much for listening. Happy Taco Tuesday.

Speaker 2 (44:15):
All right, welcome back to the show. Happy Taco Tuesday.
Thanks so much for being here. We do appreciate it. Well,
this controversy over cracker Barrel, Man, this thing just won't settle.
And again this is another example of the stupid woke left.
And what I'm loving to is I was watching something
last night where somebody was trying to defend cracker Barrel

(44:37):
and they're trying to say that, oh, this is just
a maga thing. There's no real wokeness to it. How
is this woke because they changed the logo. Well, first off,
you have to look back a little bit into the
history of what's going on with Cracker Barrel. The woman
who's the CEO, she is ooh, she's a piece of work.

(45:00):
But with this, she's actually gone back about a year,
a little over a year or so, where she has
basically laid out the fact that she wants to change
the culture of Cracker Barrel. She wants to basically dismantle
what Cracker Barrel has been. Now I've said it, and
I've been very honest about it. I'm not a fan
of Cracker Barrel. I really am. Not Like if if

(45:22):
Cracker barrels to come to me and say, hey, you're
somebody who from time to time will come here, usually
under duress, why is that? Why don't you come in
here on your own? What is it about us you
don't like? And my answer would have been very easy.
The food. I like the ambiance of the place, I

(45:44):
love the look of the place. But it's the food,
like one of my favorite country plates that that I
like to eat, and it's it has nothing to do
with Cracker Barrel. It's just what I like. Because look,
I'm a I'm a very picky eater, but one of
my favorite things is sausage, gravy, and biscuits. And when
I find a place that can do that, well, I mean,

(46:06):
you've got my heart. Cracker Barrel does not. It tastes
like slop out of a can. The biscuits sometimes are
are fresh, sometimes they're overcooked. That it's just not good.
I have not had a good meal at Cracker Barrel,
and I don't know how long it's been. I realize
it's like any time that I have go to Cracker Barrel.

Speaker 3 (46:28):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (46:28):
And again usually it's under duress. My response is like,
oh god, just what it's kind of the reaction that
I get. But I'll go just out of out of
out of total duress. But the food sucks.

Speaker 3 (46:45):
That that's that's.

Speaker 2 (46:45):
The problem with with with Cracker Barrel. Now here's the
thing too, when you when you look at the stock
price and the stocks now, it's well over one hundred
million dollars that have been lost now and I'm sure
that's gonna add up more when they start factoring in
how many people have stopped going there.

Speaker 3 (46:59):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (47:00):
Since all of this happened, But when the CEO took
over started doing a whole lot of changes with it
with the company, the food. Have you ever had the
meat loaf. I saw a video last night somebody behind
the scenes in the kitchen at a Cracker Barrel showing you, Hey,
you want to know how your meat loaf is. And
they come up and they show you a rack full

(47:20):
of meat loaf in these little baggies. They say, yep,
when you order your meat loaf, we grab one of
these and we throw it in the microwave. That's not
country cooking. That's not country cooking at all. Now, I
understand that a lot of restaurants pre cook things in advance,
so don't jump down my throat on that that they
pre cook things and then they heat them up and everything.

(47:45):
But the food there sucks. If there was anything that
you needed to do to improve the store, to make
things better, it's the food. Make it better or better
get make it. But Cracker barrels now come out with
an official response two things, and they came out with
a letter to their guests because remember the CEO also

(48:06):
took to it was a good Morning America or whatever
the hell she was at where she's out there and going.
Everybody says it's great. They love it. Everybody loves the changes.
The changes are awesome. Who's everybody because if you pay
attention to you know what, people are saying they're not
thrilled with the changes. Now, I'll be honest too, the

(48:28):
the the decorative change, you know, the color that they
changed it to. You know what, I'm kind of okay
with it, to be honest with you, kind of eh, Okay,
it's a little bit brighter, and they still have some
of the country ornaments ornaments around. I think they should

(48:50):
have just probably left all the stuff and maybe paint
repainted the place. But again, the new logo looks like
a discount sticker at Walmart. I mean, you take the
cracker and the barrel off the cracker barrel, which doesn't
make any dempt sense. But they came out with their
official statements saying that if the last few days have
shown us anything it's how deeply people care about cracker barrel.

(49:14):
We're truly grateful for your heartfelt voices. Now a lot
of people do really like it. I'm not going to
criticize you for liking it, but it's all like reheated food.
It's kind of nasty. But they go on to say
that you've also shown us that we've done a that
we could have done a better job at sharing who
we are and who will always be. What has not

(49:37):
changed and what will never change are the values this
company was built on when Cracker Barrel first opened in
nineteen sixty nine. Hard working family, scratch cook food made
with care, and as we know not scratch made anymore.
A place where everyone feels at home, no matter where

(49:57):
you are from or where you're headed. That's the Cracker
Barrel you'll always find and it continues on saying. Things
people love the most about our stores aren't going anywhere.
Rocking chairs on the porch, warm fire in the hearth,
peg games on the tables, which, by the way, they
did change, unique treasures in our gift shop, and a

(50:17):
vintage Americana that antiques pull straight from our warehouse in Lebanon, Texas.
We love seeing how much you care about our old timer,
and we love him too. Uncle Herschel will still be
on our menu Welcome back Uncle Herschel's favorite breakfast platter,
on our road signs, and featured in our country store.

(50:40):
So did you decide to change the logo back to
what it was because the logo removed Uncle Herschel and
the barrel, but they said he's not going anywhere. He's family.
While our logo and remodels may be making headlines, our
bigger focus is still right where it belongs, in the

(51:01):
kitchen and on your plate, serving generous portions of the
food you crave at fair prices, and doing it with
the kind of country hospitality that brightens your days and
creates lasting memories. Meat loaf that was made a couple
of days ago and is sitting in a plastic bag
and ready for you to go. Sorry. Chicken and dumplings

(51:22):
that we opened up out of a can and dumped
it into a thing and reheated it. Country fried steak
that we also pulled off of a thing and reheated
it for you. Sides that taste like Sunday supper, Yeah
in prison, and yes, the world's best pancakes. Far from it.
They're still here we with a few new dishes joining

(51:44):
the menu. Whether you're a longtime fan or just a
first time guest, we want you to feel at home
around our table. We also want to be sure Cracker
Barrel is here for the next generation of families, just
that this has been for years. That means showing up
on our new platforms and in new ways, but always

(52:04):
with our heritage at heart. That's why you took your
heritage and removed it right, and you painted it up
and fancied it and made it more modern. That's not
your heritage. By the way, Cracker Barrel also had to
hire one of those those nine to one one PR clinics.
You know those firms that come in when you screw
up royally, uh, and they've they've got to come in

(52:25):
and rescue you. That's what they've done. That's a sign
that you screwed up. When you when you've got to
hire a PR firm to come in and help you,
you screwed up. But they went on with their statement
and said that we take the responsibility very seriously. We
know we won't always get everything right the first time,
but we'll just keep testing, learning and listening to our

(52:45):
guests and employees. At the end of the day, our
promise is simple. You'll always find comfort, community and country
hospitality here at Cracker Barrel. Uncle Herschel wouldn't have wanted
it any other way. Thank you for caring so much,
and come see for yourself the country hospitality that makes
Cracker Barrel feel like home. Love Cracker Barrel again. If

(53:12):
you want to improve things, there's one way to do it.
Make the food better. Waffle House, Kurt, You're right, love
me some waffle house. Probably not the best food in
the world, but waffle House so much better, so much better.
And look, I understand, because I know a few people
have already messaged me going you don't understand that in

(53:34):
these kitchens the food a lot of it's pre made.
I know it's pre made. The reality is that you
can't be like, Okay, what do you want for dinner? Okay,
well I'll go make it. I understand how a restaurant works,
but also there's a lot of things in the restaurants
that you can make a lot more fresh. And that's
not what has gone on in places like Cracker Barrel.

(53:56):
And again you've got somebody like me who the reason
I don't go there on my own free will is
because of the food. I have never once showed up
at a Cracker Barrel and looked up at that logo
and went Not one time did I walk into a
Cracker Barrel and get seated at one of the seats

(54:17):
and go, goh, look at all this crap all over
the place in here, this restaurant would be so much
better if all of this was gone. And then there's
been the personnel issues over the years with the way
that they have treated their employees. You know in their
statement they talk about their employees. Well, yeah, let's talk

(54:38):
about your employees. How many discrimination lawsuits has Cracker Barrel
had in a while? Every time that I've gone to
the Cracker Barrel near us here in Panama City, it's
hit and miss when it comes to service, Absolute hit
and miss. And that is a sign of leadership, straight up.
It as a sign of leadership when you walk up

(54:59):
to the counter. And granted, I understand the teenagers nowadays,
they're they're a little bit different than we were, and
you know, teenagers are teenagers. But as a leader, you
can still be like, hey, listen, leave your phone in
your car, leave it in the locker in the back
or whatever. Stay off your phone. Here's how you do
your job. If you want to make money, you need

(55:20):
to do your job. Where when somebody walks in the door,
you put a smile on the face, no matter how
fake it is, and you say hi, good morning, and
welcome to Cracker Barrel. How many of you will be here? Okay,
let me get your table. I have gone into the
cracker barrel here locally a couple of times, again under duress,
and you walk up to there and you're like, hello, Hi, hey,

(55:51):
you on the other side of the podium. You want
to look up at me the customer that's coming in
to pay, And then they're like, oh, how many follow me?
And then again hit and miss when it comes to
the white staff as well. It's not slamming on the
white staff. This is this is the side of the leadership.
If the employees are miserable working there, then that means

(56:15):
that the management and up and above and beyond is horrible.
I posted a thing the other day about that, with
how management, how they can so easily destroy the environment,
and that's what we see nowadays. It's like cracker barrel
is one of these things where you know, and I

(56:36):
get the business world that we're in now and the
corporate takeovers of everything, but cracker barrel shouldn't be run
by some big glass wherein goofy looking you know, leftists,
won't kind of executive from New York City. That's not
how you do cracker barrel. You got to get down

(56:59):
and you got to under the customer tell, and you
can't when you're sitting in some high rise in New
York City when you don't have a single concept of
what Cracker Barrel represents, or any other place for that
meta represents. And this is one of the problems that
we've had with America, with corporate America, is all this
just stupid stuff that they have done. But leadership is

(57:20):
where it all begins. And leadership in restaurants and stores
and regular businesses, that's the difference. You treat your people
right and they will do a good job. But then again, leadership.
Another thing that they also have to do is is

(57:41):
like with the Democrat Party. You know, you look at
all of the stuff that's going on to Democrats right now,
and it all comes from the leadership, the leadership of
the party and how they treat people. That's why you
see such crazy madness. What's that Sydney Sweeney for CEO
of Cracker Barrel. You'll go back, Hell, yeah, what's that?

(58:04):
Sophie Cunningham is unemployed at the it's how is Sophie
Cunningham unemployed? I thought she was still playing basketball. Either way,
you know, Sophie Cunningham or Sidney Sweety is a spokesperson
for that. Put that on the on the logo. Oh yeah,
I'll put up with the crappy food.

Speaker 7 (58:20):
Just for that.

Speaker 2 (58:22):
Seriously. But yeah, it's it's just it's insane to watch again,
you know, the leftist attitude about it, and it's sad
that it's a restaurant that you can talk about. But
you see the the CEO that's like, oh my god,
everything is great. How nobody's saying it's great, we're here

(58:43):
in our feedback is mostly positive. No, it's not. Maybe
from the goons that are in the office. I think
that this was a great idea, but no, it's not.
You know again, the sun is out, don't tell us
it's the middle of the night because we're looking at
the sun. Don't pee in our leg and then tell
us that it's raining. Pay attention to the customers, pay

(59:05):
attention to the people. Be amazed at where you get from.
Oh that's right. Sophie cunamhand did come out with a
tour in m SCL. I saw that. That sucks because
I like watching Sophie Cunningham. I wonder if she needs
anybody to play nurse for her, just asking for a
friend all right, we got to take a quick break.
Happy Taco Tuesday for you. Go get some tacos today

(59:27):
a real taco place. We will be right back. Good
morning everybody. She's making liberals cry, one happy show at
a time. This is the Brian Rust Show. All right,

(59:49):
welcome back to the show. Good morning, Happy Taco Tuesday.

Speaker 4 (59:53):
Man.

Speaker 2 (59:53):
The Gulf of America beach camp today looks absolutely insanely
beautiful watching that. Still haven't gotten down to the beach though.
I think we're now going on. God, it might be
close to two years since I have actually put my
foot on the sand, let alone into the gulf. Havn't
done it. It's just it's been a little while. I

(01:00:16):
gotta get out there one of these days. I just
gotta I gotta stop doing. I gotta stop working so much.
That's that's my problem. Coming up at the top of
the hour, Mark Mixed, president of the National Right to Work,
is going to be joining us. We're going to talk
with him about some of the latest things that are
going on with all the unions and the right to work,
and we always have a great conversation when he's on,
so we'll be chatting with him. Coming up at the
top of the hour in the meantime, something that's now

(01:00:38):
caused some more controversy, and I'm probably gonna say something
that's gonna take somebody off. So when I say it,
don't get mad until I finished saying it. And so
you go, oh, okay, because otherwise somebody's gonna get mad
at me when I say this. But Trump yesterday had
signed an executive order which is now meant to ban
the burning of the American flag, which is an act

(01:01:01):
currently protected under the First Amendment. And this is gonna
be one of these things that's gonna be very controversial.
And I'm gonna tell you right now, this is my
feelings on somebody going off and burning the flag. I
want to punch you in the throat, I do. I
want to punch you in the throat. I want to
kick you in the knees. I want to drop you

(01:01:22):
to the ground, kidney, kick you a couple of times,
and tell you do not burn the flag of my country.
I am not offended by very many things. It takes
a lot to offend me. But I'll tell you now,
you burn the flag, I'm not gonna just be like eh.
But at the same time, and then this is where

(01:01:43):
I get into this conflict, and this is gonna be
the thing that's gonna get somebody mad at me, and
it's gonna be a matter of seconds before it's in
the comments on this. I know because you guys are
all patriots. I'm patriotic too. But there is a complication
with this, and that it is protected under the First
Amendment as much much is then pains me to say,
because again, when I see somebody doing it, I want

(01:02:05):
to throw punch them. I want to kick them down
to the ground. I want to break their kneecaps, I
want to kick their skull in. I want to I
want to teach them a lesson. The problem is that
it is still part of the First Amendment, and this
is gonna be one of these things that and while
I get it, while Donald Trump is doing it, it's

(01:02:25):
one of these things that it's gonna be. It's gonna
be tough. One of the things that he said that
is if you burn a flag, you get a year,
a year in jail, no early exits, no nothing. The
problem with that is that again, it is part of
the First Amendment. It is your First Amendment right to
protest against the government to show you're distaining and everything.

(01:02:46):
And there is really truly no law that says you
can't burn a flag. And the president also doesn't have
the authority to make a law that requires time. He's
stepped above and beyond his ability to do that. Now,
I agree that if you burn the flag, you should

(01:03:07):
have an ass beating. Absolutely, that's that's my patriotic feeling
about the flag. Don't burn my flag. However, it is
again protected first speech, So this is gonna be something
that we're gonna see that's most likely going to be
overturned as an executive order. And and I hate it

(01:03:27):
that that this is even an issue, but it is
because people do get out there and they burn the flag,
and and I hate it. Uh, what's that they threw
people in burning the flag? Uh? Yeah, yeah. If you
if you burn the the uh the LGBTQ flag or
the transgender flag, Uh, then they always look at that

(01:03:49):
as being something completely different. Then that's uh, you know,
they classify that as a hate crime. Uh and on
and on and on, which yeah, you know, I mean,
the whole burning of a flag thing, regardless is just stupid.
It really truly is absolutely stupid. There's so much better

(01:04:12):
ways to get your point across than doing that. And
and again, when you get people like me, like you
that are patriotic, that are going to want our flag honored,
then you know, we don't want to see this happen.
We don't want to see the flag get burned, We
don't want to see it desecrated and everything. But this

(01:04:33):
is gonna be one of those. It's gonna be a mess.
And I love it because I was watching the social
media and this one idiot jumps in who I follow
for a time of time, This Alex idiot. He's going
on going, I'll watch the meltdown's gonna happen. Meltdon's gonna
happen from the MAGA people because over this, well, you
know what do you do when the flag is no
longer good anymore? And you know you have to burn

(01:04:56):
the flag? And I'm thinking of myself going, how much
of a dumb ass are you to compare burning the
US flag out of protest, which again I hate saying
it really is kind of part of your First Amendment right.
I hate it, I disagree with it, eh, but what's
how can you compare that to a flag that has

(01:05:20):
been honored, that has flown proudly as an example of
your country and your pride of your country, and it
got to a point where it got tathered. It's no
longer any good. You got to destroy it now, and
you honorably burn the flag. And they're like, oh, see
the maga people that are gonna get all upset about

(01:05:41):
it now. Now there's a big difference. There's a big
difference between that and the idea of burning the flag
for a protest. That pisses me off, It really truly does.
It also pisses me off that it's kind of a
protected free speech. But this is gonna be one of
those things that no doubt will be overturned in courts,

(01:06:04):
that nobody's gonna end up getting in jail time for
doing it. And as a matter of fact, it was
shortly after Donald Trump had signed the executive order made
it all happen, that somebody burned the flag right out
in front of the White House. So we'll have to
watch and see what happens. But again, don't burn our
flag if you don't like it. Here's a solution for you.

(01:06:27):
Get the f out of the country, go away, go
someplace else where. You're gonna be happier. We got to
take a break. We'll be right back. Good morning. They
say he's got good jeans. I'm just glad he's wearing pants.

(01:06:47):
This is the Brian Russ Show.

Speaker 1 (01:06:50):
What Up?

Speaker 2 (01:06:51):
Welcome back to the show. Happy Taco Tuesday. Thanks for
for tuning in with us today. Boy, I'm telling you,
nothing says your audience is PAIDO like bringing up the
flag burning topic. Woo you guys. So this is what
I love about you.

Speaker 3 (01:07:05):
Guys.

Speaker 2 (01:07:05):
Are really do you guys are so patriotic and you
bring up a lot of great points. You really do.
And I this this whole thing about burning the flag.
I mean, come on, I understand you know your your
right to get out there and protest to the government,
regardless of whether I agree with you or not. I
would be right there next to you to defend your

(01:07:27):
your ability to do that. But burning the flag, I mean, look,
convince me is my my point. And I say this
even about politicians. Convince me. Convince me that I am wrong.
Tell me that the the theories that I have about
government and the policies and what they're doing, convince me

(01:07:49):
that I'm wrong. Convince me that you're right, convince me
that you have a better idea than me, and you
can do that with words. You could sit down and
tell me that you know X, Y, and Z. But
you start burning my flag even though I'm gonna support
your right to protest. Guy, you're not convincing me of anything.

(01:08:09):
You really aren't. And it doesn't matter if your ideas
at this point are actually better than mine. It doesn't
matter if you are right and I am wrong. The
fact that you're burning my flag is not going to
get me onto your side. Just it's not going to happen.
I mean, sure, yes, you've got the right to do it,

(01:08:31):
but what's the outcome of it. Do you really think
that you're going to change the hearts and minds of
people when you burn their flag? No, so think about
it before you start doing some protests like that. Don't
burn the flag. Look at me and tell me why
you're right and why I'm wrong. Convince me burning the
flag only makes me you want to throw it, punch

(01:08:53):
you as hard as I possibly can. So another example
to you, by the way of just how sick and
twisted this this audience really is. Which I love and
those that follow me on social media. Yesterday I came
across a photo and it just had me going, what
in so many ways? And I had so many questions

(01:09:14):
about it, and I don't even want to go down
the road of questions. But it was a photo. It
was an X ray where somebody somehow and this could
have been somebody who was just burning a flag, and
this is how this happened. They got a dumbbell into

(01:09:34):
a place that it should not be and there's X
rays and now you keep in mind about how wide
a dumbbell is, and and medically, you know, there's there's
certain portions of your body that have the ability to expand.

(01:09:54):
And I'm trying to do this in the most family
friendly way in case there's kids listening, but there's there's
a certain certain opening that will open wider than you
would think it would considering it's kind of puckered tight.
And as somebody was able to get a dumbbell. Your

(01:10:20):
reactions to that have been hilarious. I mean absolutely hilarious.
It's one of these things that the comments section blew
up so fast and then the memes that got thrown
in there just so fast. It made me laugh. So
for those that did participate in that particular post on
social media. Thank you you you provided me with plenty

(01:10:43):
of giggles. But I still have so many questions to
ask about how why ou I just I just I
don't know. There's something wrong with people there, really, truly
is something wrong with people. So jd Vance Vice President
Vance was able to drop another truth bomb. And you know,

(01:11:05):
one of the things I really love about JD Vance
is that. And this is one of the things that
I said to about what's his name? God, I've already
forgot his name? That was effective marketing, wasn't it. What's
his name there? Oh? God? Was his name?

Speaker 3 (01:11:20):
See?

Speaker 2 (01:11:21):
The whole thing with the dumbbell and the booty thing
just kind of threw me off already of the show.
What was his name? The Indian guy, the one that's
running for governor of Ohio. It'll hit me in a second.
I always said about him that one of the things
I loved about him was that he's able to deliver
Donald Trump's message without it being Donald Trump delivering Donald
Trump's message, because that's one of the things that has

(01:11:41):
always been the hardest for Donald Trump is for him
to deliver the message without it sounding like it's him
delivering the message. And JD. Vance he's got another amazing
ability to deliver the Donald Trump message in a very
level headed, very direct kind of manner. And I love this.

(01:12:03):
And he was on MSNBC's Meat Depress over the weekend
with the Christian Welker who's always trying to get a
gotcha moment, and they were talking about the jerrymandering and
the redistricting and all this other stuff, and obviously Texas
was the Vivek Vivek Ramswami. Thank you, Alan. I knew
it would come to all of us here in a second.
But he was on there talking about the the Texas

(01:12:25):
Senate passing the new maps on Saturday, which is now
going to redistrict. It's going to get rid of a
couple of Democrats. I think there's like five that are
in there. And they were talking about this and during
this jd Vance drops some truth bombs and I love
it when he does it. I absolutely love it. He said.
First of all, Kristen, you have to ask yourself why
have Democrats jerry mandered their states aggressively in the past

(01:12:48):
ten to twenty years. If you look, for example, as
the popular vote in a lot of these states. In Massachusetts,
we're thirty two percent of the residents of Massachusetts voted
for Republics and yet zero Republican federal representation. And he
continued on saying that all we're doing, frankly, is trying

(01:13:09):
to make the situation a little bit more fair. On
a national scale. The Democrats have gerrymandered their states really aggressively,
and we think there's opportunities to push back against that,
and that's what we're doing. Oops, truth bomb, don't want

(01:13:31):
to hear that one, because you know, oh my god,
it's the worst thing in the world ever that Donald
Trump and the Republicans they're redistricting things and it's bad
and they're cheating again, using Massachusetts as a perfect example.
You know, Massachusetts has not had a Republican representative in

(01:13:53):
Congress since nineteen ninety six, which ironically also was the
last time that there was a balance in the country.
Just saying, but when thirty two percent of the residents
of Massachusetts make up the Republicans and they have zero
representation every single district in Massachusetts which has been redrawn

(01:14:15):
in order to keep the Republicans out of any sort
of power and control because everybody thinks that, oh, Massachusetts
is a complete liberal state, it's all Democrats. It's not.
And I'm willing to bet you that there's more than
thirty two percent that lean into the Republican way. That
may be more on the independent side, but it's a
lot more than people think. But what representation do they have?

(01:14:39):
And this is the type of stuff that the Democrats
have done for a long time. And again we did
this last week where we did the research, where we
researched it because apparently, you know, the media people can't
do it and the politicians can't do it. Where we
literally pulled up a web browser and said, what's the
history of gerrymandering? Holy cow? It goes back to the
eighteen hundreds, the eighteen hundreds when we started doing jerrymandering,

(01:15:04):
and it's been happening ever since then. Imagine that the
shocking things that we learn and see when we actually
do a little bit of research. And it's been the
Democrats that have done this over and over and over
again to redistrict the areas to keep controlled. Look at California.
Everybody thinks that California is this absolute total liberal Democrat mecca.

(01:15:29):
It's not As a matter of fact, geographically, most of
the state of California is actually kind of right leaning.
It's just that you have a couple of cities where
there's a massive population and they vote Democrat. Therefore the
entire state ends up following along. But the entire state

(01:15:50):
is not Democrat yet they gerrymander their districts so that
they can get as much control as they possibly can.
And this is just a straight up, honest truth. But
the Democrats they never We're not doing that. We're not
doing that at all. As a matter of fact, we
got to fight what the Republicans are doing. There's a
new ballot measure, by the way, on the ballot or

(01:16:11):
coming up on the ballot in California when it comes
to a lot of the redistricting that's gonna happen in
California because people gotta let me refer, the people are
supposed to be able to vote on it. It's gonna
by the way, it cost about two hundred million dollars.
Two hundred million dollars to get the redistricting vote done

(01:16:36):
for California, a state that is like, I don't know,
sixty seventy eighty billion dollars in debt, and they're gonna
spend another two hundred million dollars so they could redraw
the lines. The ballot measure, by the way, is called
Proposition fifty, and if you don't catch that one, it's
Proposition fifty for the fifty states, and it would temporarily

(01:16:59):
override an independent commission in order to authorize new maps,
favoring the Democrats. Now in California, they have a independent
commission that basically oversees this stuff, and being independent in California,
that's impressive. But the Democrats are like, Nope, no, we're
going to do it anyhow, even though then commission said

(01:17:20):
this isn't a good idea, and I'm sure the reason
for why they said this isn't a good idea is
because again, like Massachusetts, California is not all Democrat, and
if you're not careful, especially the fact that you have
had so many people leave the state and so many
changes out of the state, you could mess up. You

(01:17:42):
may think that you're going to gain seats, and you
may lose seats or not lose as many again as
many as you thought you were going to be able to.
But Davin Newsom signed the bill on August twenty first
to authorize the referendum, and Democrats say the measure is
meant to fight fire with fire. Again, somebody get into
Gavin and tell them, dude, don't use fighting fire as anything,

(01:18:05):
because well as we know, you can't fight fire. You
can't fight fire with water, let alone fight fire with fire.
But this of course being after Texas well, actually before
Texas even signed everything and made it a law. They
were jumping on it right away. But the California legislator
rushed the bill for during a special session which was

(01:18:25):
called by Gavin Newsom after Texas Governor Greg Abbott convened
the Texas legislature to carry out its redistarting efforts. And
the critics have condemned the Californian measure as unconstitutional and
point you to a current provision in the States Constitution
that removes districting powers from the legislature and the governor.

(01:18:47):
But you know what, hey laws only applied to you
and not to me, and it applies to the Republicans. Now,
the Republicans they were doing this, we'd have to take
them to court and we'd have protests and we'd have
all kinds of things. But the Democrats want to do it,
so they're going to do it anyhow, despite the fact
that there is something in the Constitution for the state
of California that says that the legislature and the governor

(01:19:10):
does not have the power and authority to do this.
It has to be done through this independent commission. And
with this, it's bypassing the independent District Commission, which is
supposed to be the ones that draw the lines and
not the legislators. And on top of this, it's going
to take a while for it to happen. The census,

(01:19:32):
the next census, by the way, is coming up in
twenty thirty, and they said that the changes in the
map would last through the twenty six, twenty eight, and
twenty thirty election cycles. So this is just a big
old mess. And again, two hundred million dollars is the estimate,
So if it's two hundred million dollars, I mean it's
going to be about three hundred and fifty million dollars
to actually do it. So it's just it's it's an

(01:19:55):
absolute mess. There are five Republican seats that are being
threatened this, which ironically just happens to be the same
number in Texas for the Democrat side, and the Republicans
are already being in the minority in the state, and
they could lose as many as five seats, one of which,
by the way, is Daryl Isa that's one of his

(01:20:18):
seats that they're looking at at being able to take away.
But here's the thing, California, you're also forgetting about this.
You've had so many people that have left the state.
You've already lost a congressional seat. You're at a point
right now that you haul is running out of trucks
again in California. This almost every time I see this story,

(01:20:40):
I'm like, didn't we already see this story? No, oh,
this is a revision of the story because it's happening again.
So many people are leaving California. And what's gonna end
up happening is California is gonna lose more and more
congressional seats as the more and more people leave, and
come twenty thirty, when the next big census comes about,
they may lose a whole bunch of seats because people

(01:21:03):
are leaving the state and they're going to Republican states,
the Red states, who, by the way, as their population
gains gains congressional seats, which this is the whole thing
that the Democrats have been trying to do with getting
the census to count the illegals. That's another reason for
why they're sanctuary cities. If you have all those illegals there,

(01:21:25):
regardless of whether they can vote or not, they need
to have fair representation in Congress. It's all the trick
in the game that they're playing. Just got to watch
what they're doing on the board. We got to take
a break. We'll be right back.

Speaker 4 (01:21:36):
Oh that's right.

Speaker 2 (01:21:47):
All right. Welcome back to the Brian Russ Show. Thank
you so much for listening here on the Florida Man
Radio Network. Checking us out at Rumbleandwimken dot com as
well and on the Florida Man Radio Network app, and
of course on the podcast, which you can grab at
the Brian rustershow dot com. So at real Donald Trump
says Gavin Newsom turned a booming economy into a stagnant

(01:22:10):
one in record time. His war on affordability and small
businesses have had real impacts, from his chaotic tariffs to
his job and economy killing immigration raids. California will continue
to fight back. What world is he living in? I'm
just I'm curious, what world are you live in there, Gavy,

(01:22:34):
because the rest of the country, those of us in
all the Red States, we're we're doing all right. It
seems to be you guys in California not doing Wait
a second, hang on, how can how can you have
ruined the economy if you're still got a great economy

(01:22:57):
and you're doing great. But it's I get confused when
he talks. I really do, because it's like he talks
out of both sides of his mouth, but he just
totally doesn't get it. By the way, I also love
this too with Gavin Newsom. He's had to actually hire people,
hire people to do his social media, to be the

(01:23:19):
sarcastic ones on his social media. And he's had to
do this because he's had to step up his social
media so that he can compete against Donald Trump memes
and Donald Trump's comments that he makes because he's such
a fighter and he's so good he can't do it
on his own. Now, first off, I just I gotta

(01:23:42):
tell you this, they're Gavin, if you're going to try
and go up against one of the biggest Internet trolls
there is, and that is Donald Trump, that man can control.
And I said, troll, not control. Lefties don't worry about
even he's saying Donald Trump's controlling people. No, he's trolling people,

(01:24:05):
not con just trolling. But he is a con man,
so he is controlling. But he is the biggest troll
there is. And I love it, absolutely love it, because
I end up being a lot of the same way.
Like if you want to follow something that's just fun,
follow my Twitter account, my Twitter account, it's just it's

(01:24:27):
just Brian rest Junior Jr. And don't follow my posts
because I don't really don't make that many posts, follow
my replies because I love to troll so many on
the left when it comes to the replies, and a
lot of times, and I'm notorious for doing this and
I get I get called out on it all the
time that that I like to poke and then walk away,

(01:24:49):
just poke and then stand back and watch what happens.
I do that often, and I tend to be pretty
good at doing that. I don't even I don't even
stir the pot. I just like put and see what happens.
But Gavin Newsom, he's trying it. It bless his heart
because all of the memes that are out there. They're
funny memes, they really are. They make me laugh every

(01:25:12):
time I see one of the Gavin Newsom memes. But
the thing is, I'm not laughing with him, I'm laughing
at him. Like the meme. I don't know if anybody
saw this one. It's one where they came up. Let
me see if I can actually find someone so I
can give you some descriptions. There's one where where he
uh he, maybe it's where is it? I think it's

(01:25:35):
a just press on or maybe it's just official one
where they they have him as a cartoon character, like
all big, bad and muscular and everything. I'm thinking myself, going,
that's just simply the man of your dreams, Gavin. That's
not you. It's not you at all. But they're coming
up with like here's another one that they that they posted,

(01:25:58):
and I'm trying to see, is this supposed to be funny?
They took Arnold Schwarzenegger. Yeah, it's to be Onnold Switz
and Nigga. Even though I'm not really a good Republican.
I've even told Gavin Newsom, y'll stupid. Along with Danny
DeVito from The Twins where he's giving him something and uh,
the caption says, I got something for you, and then uh,

(01:26:19):
they flash up a yes on fifty. Was this just
to be clever? I mean, look, I know that there's
a lot of gen Zers that are out there that
are actually working with Gavin Newsom now, but you've picked
the wrong ones because there's some gav there are some
gen zs that are pretty smart, uh, that are pretty
smart ass to That's not it, that's not it at all.

(01:26:40):
We're some of the other ones that he's got I
up here in here. God, it's just the stupidness that
they post on his thing. But there's so many dumb
memes that are out there and these these uh, these
things that he's doing to try and to counter Donald
Trump and all of his memes, and he's horrible at it.
The are the troll that should be his next book

(01:27:04):
authored by dj T and Brian King of SARKEZM Russ. Yeah,
I'm telling you they it's it's sad, It really is
sad to watch. Why am I not? You know what,
I don't know why I'm not following Gavin Newsom. I
gotta follow him just because I love watching this stuff.
That they do, and watching the podcast stuff that he's
doing as well has been very entertaining where he's he's

(01:27:25):
just trying too hard and it's coming across so incredibly fake.
Kind of like him. It's sad. It's in a lot
of ways. I kind of want to see the twenty
twenty eight matchup to be Gavin Newsom versus jd Vance

(01:27:46):
because jd Vance he's sarcastic, but he's good and he's
on point, and I think he would be able to
tear Gavin Newsom in a way that Gavin Newsom would
probably enjoy. Yes, I said it. Mark Mix is gonna
be joining us after the top of the hour. Hang on,
we'll be right back. This is the Brian Rust Show.
Good morning everybody.

Speaker 3 (01:28:13):
Brian Rust's name, You know, the Brian.

Speaker 1 (01:28:18):

Speaker 2 (01:29:48):
All right, welcome back to the show. Good morning, Happy
Taco Tuesday, and thanks so much for waking up with us.
Mark makes from the National Right to Work. We're waiting
on him. I don't know if we're gonna get him
on or now. We'll see if he calls in, we'll
jump to him here in a minute. But in the meantime,
I during the break, I was scanning through Gavin newsom
social media and come to find out they have a

(01:30:10):
Patriot shop and it's now open, which is hilarious to
think about Gavin Newsom and the idea of Patriot shop. Okay,
but get ready for this though. I'm gonna warn you
here's what some of the products are. To show you
how patriotic it is, and to show you that poo,

(01:30:31):
Donald Trump, you're in for it. I mean, you're not
running for a reelection in twenty twenty eight. And no
matter what they're saying, he's not gonna do it health wise.
Even I don't think he's gonna do it. It will
be JD vance. But either way, part of the wonderful
products that they are displaying here is a hat that
says Gavin or Newsome was right about everything. That's an

(01:30:57):
original one. Where'd you guys come up with that idea?
Oh wait a second, Oh that's right, because Trump has
a hat that says Trump was right about everything. We
have a coffee cops Newsom twenty twenty six because he
is running for governor again, isn't he? Is that what
he's doing? I know he wants to run for president.

(01:31:18):
By the way, they're also in red and white, which,
by the way, is not your party's colors. Just throwing
that out there. Another red one was real patriot. Now
you do realize, Gavin, that if you were to throw
a Gavin Newsom supporter out onto the streets with a
hat that is a red hat that says real patriot,

(01:31:41):
they're gonna get harassed by your people. That wasn't That
wasn't well thought out, was it? Or is this part
of your sarcasm. I mean, I'm the king of sarcasm.
Very few people can beat me when it comes to sarcasm.
And I don't see it. I don't see how that's sarcastic.
I don't see how that's going to go to work
for you, really don't. But another one that he's got

(01:32:02):
is a tank top, which you know, for for Gavin Newsom,
all the guys gonna wanna, uh gonna want to wear
a tank top and it says Trump is not hot.
The burn Bear with me for I need a minute.
I need a minute because that burn was just too much.

(01:32:22):
I need some coffee. Hang on, Wow, that was that
was hang on, let me let me write that one
down because that was good Gavin. Let's see Trump is
not hot?

Speaker 3 (01:32:43):
Wow?

Speaker 2 (01:32:45):
Oh the burn that he got on him on that one. Anyhow,
Welcome back to the show, Happy Taco Tuesday, and thanks
for waking up with us today. It's just I love
watching the left try and act as if they're cool.
They they fail every single time, especially when it's like
the sarcasm like when they try to take what we're

(01:33:06):
able to do and try and turn it against us.
Like the other one that I always loved was the
cussing we're gonna f Trump. That's not the way you
use that word. I mean some people want to, but
I don't think that's what you meant to say. And

(01:33:26):
then when you get my favorite one, when it came
to the whole f Trump thing, and you remember how
it was like there was probably about two maybe three
weeks of out there cussing and dropping the F bomb
everywhere that you could. I think finally somebody went, guys,
this isn't working. We look foolish. Stop saying that it
doesn't work for us, because it really doesn't. I mean,

(01:33:50):
if there's anybody who can tell you how to drop
the F bomb, it's this kid. I could do it.
It's I use the word like it's a kama. I mean,
I can, I've perfected to do it. I can help you.
I'll train you how to do it, but you guys
aren't doing it right. But my favorite one through that
entire thing was the the woman from California. And I
don't know if she was a congresswoman or what she was,

(01:34:11):
but when she got up there and she's she's doing
her typical white, whiny liberal kind of I'm being tough.
But oh my god, Oh hey, everybody, we're gonna we're
gonna f Trump. Oh, don't don't tell my children that
I said that. Don't tell them I said the F word.

Speaker 1 (01:34:29):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (01:34:30):
First off, Donald Trump wouldn't f you if you were
the last thing on the planet Earth. Probably would have
gone with e Gen Carrol before you anyhow. But they
just don't get it. You guys can't cuss. Don't do it.
It's embarrassing. So Donald Trump is jumping into something else
that's gonna set off the left, I'm sure, because look,

(01:34:53):
Donald Trump, we all know he's the tyrant, he's the authoritarian.
He's Hitler. Now he's Mussolini. Have we called him Stalin yet?
I don't think they've hit them with that. Wells, let's
just throw it in there. He's Stalin as well. So
he's the Hitler Mussolini Stalin. That's gonna be his whole
new name. It's no longer to be Donald J. Trump.
It's Hitler, Mussolini Stalin. But Donald Trump has decided he's

(01:35:18):
going to rename the Department of Defense and return it
back to its original name. What a concept. Donald Trump
proposed yesterday that the administration's renaming of the Department of
Defense back to the name that it was originally, the
Department of War. See, we told you Donald Trump is

(01:35:38):
gonna commit war, and he's gonna get us into war,
and it's gonna be the worst thing ever. Wait a second,
isn't you guys on the left who've actually encouraged all
of this war stuff with the Ukraine and Russia and
everything else, and you're all upset when we don't get
into war things. Yeah, but we can't have this. This
is what he's gonna do. But he's started it off

(01:36:00):
in his speech in the Oval Office, which again he's
sitting down, which the left love to say, Donald Trump,
his health is so bad he can't stand up. Yeah,
he's got the little vain thing going on in his leg. Yeah,
it hurts to stand up. At least he's not falling down.
I'd rather have our president sitting down. Besides, wait a second,

(01:36:20):
if i'm if I remember correctly, you guys had a
president that you guys were absolutely in love with who
never stood up except for one time when he went
up to deliver his speech about a date that will
live in infamy. So now it's a bad thing that
the president is sitting down at the desk. He said,

(01:36:43):
come on, you guys, give it a rest. But he
ended up saying that Pete, referring to Pete Hagseth, you
started up by saying the Department of Defense, and somehow
it doesn't sound good to me. You know, this is
this is kind of like, you know, this is where
Donald Trump did this. He was probably thinking about it
one night and didn't talk about it to anybody. But
then he's like, you know what, Pete, Hey, Pete, you
know you started it off by saying the Department of Defense.

(01:37:05):
But you know, somehow that just doesn't it doesn't sound
to me. It sounds doesn't sound good to me. Defense.
What are what are we defense? Why are we defense?
It used to be called the Department of War. It
has a stronger sound. And as you know, we won
World War One, we won World War two. We want everything.

(01:37:28):
Now we have a Department of Defense. We're defenders. I
don't know. Haksnath, who was standing behind Trump at the time,
said the name changes on its way, and he said
that's coming soon, Sir Trump said, the Department of War
sounds better than a Department of Defense. Defense. I don't
want it to be defense only. We want defense. We

(01:37:49):
want to be offensive too, if that's okay. As the
Department of War, we want everything. We won everything, and
I think we're going to have to go back to that.
So now be looking for the Department of Defense. Because
of Donald Trump's conversation, it's it's gonna go back to
the Department of War. And the Left is gonna melt down.

(01:38:10):
And I can't wait. I can't wait to see how
the reaction is gonna be from the left when they
start going, oh my god, Donald Trump, he's a warmongerer.
He's gonna change, He's gonna go after everybody. And it's
it's gonna be war everywhere. And we told you it's
the worst in the world. But you do know that
Donald Trump has prevented a bunch of wars, right, But no,

(01:38:34):
he's gonna get into war now because he's the Department
of War. He doesn't even want to be in defense.
It's it's all war. So sat the left just melts
down over everything. Hey, happy Tuesday, Why is it gonna
be happy Donald Trump is still the president that I'm
so miserable. I don't know what to do with my life.

(01:38:56):
It's just, oh, I don't know what to know. The
the left is still uh is still ticked off about tariffs.
Anybody see the announcement from Canada. I love this because
Donald Trump is supposed to be wrong. The billionaire businessman
who has conducted business deals all around the country, he's

(01:39:16):
or the world, he's wrong. He has no idea what
he is doing. But the politicians, the politicians who get
a briefing that is given to them by somebody, and
I don't know, I don't know where did this briefing
even come from. I don't know. But here's here's what
they're telling me. This. I know because I got my briefings.
They're smarter than Donald Trump. And they say over and

(01:39:38):
over again, all these these tariffs, they're just not gonna work.
It's gonna be the worst. And what happened. Canada turns
around and Joe's, hey, yeah, you know the you know
those those big, huge tariffs that we were doing against
the US, Well, we're gonna we're gonna knock those down.

(01:39:59):
We're we're gonna match America's tariffs. So if if America
you lower your tariffs, we're gonna lower our tariffs. It's
gonna be the same. Hey, uh, We're still cool, right buddy.
So Canada yet another example of Donald Trump's tariff tariff

(01:40:20):
war that's going to destroy our economy shows that it's working.
Seventy something, almost eighty something different countries around the world
coming to America to work with this on the tariffs.
And I think I'm pretty sure that the entire economy
is supposed to have collapsed by now because of Donald
Trump's tariffs. The economy is supposed to be completely collapsed.

(01:40:43):
We're supposed to be standing in line in breadlines Detroit
because breadlines and super lines are delicious. And it's just
not happening as a matter of whether the country is
doing better and better every day. And yet the left
is out here still attacking Donald Trump on the tariffs.
But we're doing well. We're taking a lot of money

(01:41:06):
from China on the tariffs. We've brought in a ridiculous
amount of money to the the tax coffers because of
what Donald Trump has done. And what does the left say,
As Jojo from Juror says, we dot pay dot the dot,
efing dot tariffs dot. That girl is so angry and

(01:41:29):
it's it's sad because she's kind of cute, you know,
not in a way of like I'd marry her, but
you know, at least for the weekend, she's cute. But
she is the most bitter, angry little thing that I've
ever seen. And this is something that we see from
all of the left. They're all so angry and bitter
about absolutely everything. I don't know what it's like going

(01:41:50):
through life like that, going through life where just everything
about you and everything about your day and everything else
is just it's the worst ever. Donald he came out
and he made the environment cooler, and he canceled cancer,
and he's made it so that we all have health
insurance and we're all getting college and it's just the worst.

(01:42:11):
Isn't that what you wanted?

Speaker 6 (01:42:13):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:42:13):
But Donald Jubb gave it to us and now we
can't have it. What's that CARDI wants to collapse Canada? Yeah,
I mean he does. You know. That's the other thing
about Carney the Prime minister up there in Canada that
a lot of Canadians I don't think they even had
any clue. And we've got a lot of Canadians that
listen to the show. Thank you guys for listening. But yeah,

(01:42:35):
you're right, they had no clue of just how bad
he is. Carti is one of the guys, that is,
he's part of the One World network, he's part of
the One World Order, the whole World Economic Forum and
all that where their idea and their goal is to
collapse things so they can rebuild it into their vision
and control it. That's what they want. They don't want

(01:43:01):
anything else, They just want control and they can't get it.
And it's, uh, it's sad to watch, you know. How
you get people like him that are able to get
into power, uh, like the prime minister and of course
they kicked out what was it, Justine, Justine Trudeau when

(01:43:22):
they kicked him out, her out, whatever it is. By
the way, do you know that he's dating Katy Perry?
Now she could do so much better? I mean, wow, okay,
but anyhow, but yeah, we we see these these stupid
leaders that that get picked all these all the time
from these countries and even around here in the country.
It's just it's amazing, it really really is amazing to

(01:43:43):
me that uh that that happens. Oh well, the other
one too. Lisa Cook, Lisa Cook, the in the the
the Fed who got fired by Donald Trump and our
boy Brooklyn Dad defiant. Yeah, he's he's he's such a
he's such a fighter who ran away from New York
to move to Florida. Good job, buddy. Good Job says

(01:44:07):
that there's two hundred and seventy three Republican members of
Congress and not one with a spine to push back
on the dictator who just fired Lisa Cook and is
deploying the military against our cities. Disgraceful. What's disgraceful is
how stupid you are, and how disgraceful of that you
get out there and you show to the world just

(01:44:28):
how stupid you really truly are. All Right, we got

Happy Taco Tuesday. Thanks for getting up with us today.

(01:45:12):
All right, welcome back to the Brian Rush Show right
here at the Florida Man Radio Network and on Rumbleandwimken
dot com. Thank you so much for checking out the
show today to appreciate it. I love this new thing
that the left is pushing hard, and they've been pushing
it hard for the past couple of days. And the
Donald Trump bruises on his hands. Now, I'll say this,

(01:45:37):
it probably was not well thought out of where to
put the IV for Donald Trump. They probably should have
looked at something a little bit more off the arm
and not on the hand. As the left continually says,
Donald Trump's health is deteriorating, and then White House is
absolute radio silent about it, and even the media is

(01:45:57):
not saying anything either. Well, actually they did, they did
come out and they did say something about what's going
on to Donald Trump. There's a and I forgot the disease.
It's a thing with his the veins in his leg,
and it's an issue and it could be pretty bad,

(01:46:19):
but there's a treatment that they're doing. They have said
that this is what's going on. It was about twenty
four hours after the photos came out, about three weeks
ago maybe where they addressed the issue. And Donald Trump
is what seventy nine eighty years old. You get to
that point, you're gonna bruise when you get to it.
So now people are like, the man is evil, he's

(01:46:41):
starting to rot as they show a photo with the
bruise on his hand. Of course, my response to this
person was, why don't you go to your local nursing
home and take a look around a hole. They are
so desperate to just slam on Donald Trump in any
fashion that they possibly can. They don't even think about
what they're doing. It's just it's pathetic. It really truly

(01:47:06):
is pathetic. And then there is the the the raid
that happened on uh on John Bolton's house. Because remember
when Adam Shift and I wish I'd grabbed that audio
for this. Adam Shift multiple times said about how what
Donald Trump gets out of office. We've got to arrest him.
We gotta, we gotta throw them in jail, we gotta
do all this other stuff, and blah blah blah, and

(01:47:27):
we gotta we gotta go after the man, and on
and on and on and on, only til later on
say that no president should do this, and you shouldn't
be going it's it's it's like, come on, knock it off.
What is it is? I'm gonna mess it up, Michael,
I really am.

Speaker 3 (01:47:42):
What is it?

Speaker 2 (01:47:43):
Venice venus, venus insufficient. It's basically, it's it's the thing
with the veins on the legs. That's what I'm gonna
I'm gonna say. It's simple. It's I'm not gonna get
into the medical terms because I screw those up all
the time. But now Adam Shift is out talking about
how the raid that happened at the home of the
former National Security Advisor John Bolton, who I've never liked.

(01:48:06):
I've never liked that man. There's something about that guy
that is just shady as all get out. He's a warmonger.
And Donald Trump used him for what he needed to
use him for. And Donald Trump even straight up admitted
that he's like, yeah, I had him stand behind me
because you know, people around the world looked at John
Bolton and knew that if John Bolton was involved, that

(01:48:27):
there was going to be some vicious war that was
going to come and we were going to come in
and straighten things out and make a mess or whatever.
So having him behind me scared people. Donald Trump used
him as a prop. But now Adam Shift is saying that,
you know, the FBI raid on his home was clearly retribution,
arguing that the operation reflected a broader pattern of targeting

(01:48:50):
critics of President Donald Trump. Wait a second, where did that?
Where was it that that happened? Again, it was in
recent time. Hang on, it's oh, yeah, that's right, when
Joe Biden and his administration went after anyone and everyone
Donald Trump related. Oh you're a lawyer for Donald Trump

(01:49:13):
that said, oh, there may have been something kind of
funky with the election up. That's it. Indictem How many
former Donald Trump people did they send to prison, sent
to prison for stupid charges that it never should have
been brought to begin with, All of the things that
they did, like tons of fun up there in New

(01:49:35):
York City. Letitia James, who literally campaigned on I'm going
to get this man, and what did she have? Nothing?
So she made something up, something that she was doing
worse herself. At the same time, she was accusing Donald
Trump of this stuff. But while Adam Shift was appearing

(01:49:58):
on Meet the Press with Chris Welker, Shift was asked
about the investigation following the the FBI search of Bolton's
home and his office. Welker noted that the Vice President,
Jade Vance, had already rejected the idea that the raid
was political retribution, and then press Shift on whether Americans

(01:50:18):
should let the investigation play out or make conclusions. First off,
what a stupid thing to say, but Shift responded by saying,
I think it is clearly retribution. I mean the idea
that they just picked John Bolton, a prominent critic of
the president at random. What the president is trying to
do here is various. System is systematic. Anyone who stands

(01:50:41):
up to the president, anyone who criticizes the president issues
gets a full weight of the federal government brought down
on them. Because yeah, that never happened. And he goes
off to say that, so sure, if you're John Bolton,
you get your home seized. He didn't get his home seized.
They went in to look at the classified documents that

(01:51:01):
he had in his home. Huh sound familiar. Oh yeah,
that's shrine. We got to raid Donald Trump's home because
he's got sensitive documents.

Speaker 1 (01:51:09):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:51:09):
The man who's actually able to declassify that, John Bolton,
a man not able to declassify that. Just kind of
like Vice President Joe Biden or Senator Joe Biden who
had classified documents in their home. This this back and forth,

(01:51:29):
it's it's it's completely got to stop. And in the Left,
they continually make fools out of themselves when they do
this because we all it's it's like it's like California
or or DC. They don't even realize that the rest
of us paid attention, The rest of us seen it.
There is a thing called the Internet where you can
go and see all the stuff that you did and

(01:51:51):
said before. But they think that we're dumb, and they
just come out and act as if, oh, none of
this has ever happened before. This is all Donald Trump. Okay, buddy,
we got to take a break here at the bottom
of the hour. We'll be right back. Good morning, all right,

(01:52:17):
Welcome back to the show. Good morning, Happy Taco Tuesday,
and thanks for tuning us in today. We appreciate it.
Not sure what happened to my buddy Mark. First time
we've ever had a problem getting him on. We're gonna
reschedule him, see what we can get him back on.
You know, this always happens, like when I schedule somebody
like days in advance, like we scheduled him like Friday,

(01:52:38):
Thursday or Friday. Now we'll get him on. I always
have great conversations with him. Anyhow, So as we know
that Kamala Harris spent over a billion dollars a billion
to try and become the president of the United States
and you know, not very successful. And in the aftermath

(01:53:01):
of the election, the Democrat National Committee continues to throw
good money at bad things. Now here's the thing about
you know, when you run for office, you raise your money. Obviously,
you get the money and you spend it. But if
there's any cost that goes afterwards, like you know, I

(01:53:21):
don't know, you spend an extra twenty five million dollars
or whatever it might be that falls into your lap
as the candidate. So it's up to Kamala Harris now
to pay off that debt. Of the twenty five million dollars,
which I guess is part of her book deal. You
watch the book deal which has got the fifteen cities
that is supposed to go to. A lot of people

(01:53:44):
are saying it's gonna be like five six cities before
they cancel the tour. But you watch what's going to
happen that week that that book is going to go
to the New York Times best Selling list. It's going
to sell like twenty six twenty seven million dollars worth
of books, and then all of a sudden, all of
her debt's going to be paid off. You watch, that's

(01:54:05):
how it's going to be. Because, by the way, this
is one of the new ways that they pay off politicians.
They get him to write a book and then they
go off and they buy all the books without actually
buying the books. So they'll go to the publisher and
be like, hey, listen, we're going to buy eight million
dollars worth of books, and you're going to give seven

(01:54:28):
million to the politician and you keep the other million,
but don't print any books. Don't print anything. So it
ends up being like a straight profit for the book publishers,
and then the money that is quote unquote made in
the book sales because hey, you know we sold all
these books. Look, we got their receipts as we bought

(01:54:49):
them or that they were sold, and then they get
their money. So it's one of the money making schemes
that they do now with some of our politicians, just
in case you're wondering how they get all their money.
But now, the DNC has reportedly spent over fifteen million
dollars just in this year alone on the Kamales Harris
campaign expenses, just to pay him off. Axios reported that

(01:55:12):
in the first six months of twenty twenty five, the
DNC spent fifteen million dollars which has gone to paying
off Harris's presidential campaign expenses. And this comes after the
Republican National Committee reported to have had eighty million dollars
on hand, while as at the end of June, the
DNC had fifteen million dollars. See this is another example

(01:55:33):
of how the Democrat Party is just not doing well.
The Republican Party has so much freaking money that they
almost don't know what to do with it, which in
a lot of ways they don't. By the way, Joe
Gruders from Florida, he did get voted in as the
the RNC chairman, and we'll have to see about getting
him onto the show because I got a lot of
things I want to say to him. I want to

(01:55:55):
congratulate him, but I also have some ideas of what
they need to do because they were public party needs
to step it up and not just do what the
Democrats did and just spend money and waste money. You
got to do a lot more than just that. What's
that Gods of Pola sitting you're carrying buying forty million
dollars pre order of the book. See, I wouldn't be surprised.
I wouldn't be surprised if you if you don't see

(01:56:18):
see that as well. Oh this is great. Congratulations, This
is so and so the Michigan power Ball winner. So
you have been picked among our electoral machine on Facebook
winners to get fifty thousand dollars this month. All that
is awesome. Yeah, block the scammers that are out there.

(01:56:40):
These people are unreal. They really truly are. I've been random.

Speaker 5 (01:56:44):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:56:45):
This is my problem too, as I've gotten to a
point where a lot of these these scammers because one
of my sick and twisted things and I will totally
admit to this is that I love dating sites, and
I don't love the dating because I'm looking to date
any of the people that are on it, because I'm
really not. I love going there to see one or

(01:57:06):
for two reasons. One to read the ridiculous things that
people say about themselves. I love reading those things. Call
me sick and twisted, I am, I get it. But
the other one is the scammers. I love to f
with the scammers. I have so much fun when it
comes to that. But I know that one of these days,

(01:57:27):
because it's going to be my luck. If it hasn't
already happened in my life, it's going to happen. At
some point, there's going to be the woman who is
perfect for me, drop dead, gorgeous, we have all the
right things in common. It would be one of the
things where it would be the perfect match, where we
will last together for the rest of our lives. We

(01:57:49):
will die in the bed alongside each other within hours.
Perfect relationship. And I'm gonna be the one that's gonna
screw it up because I'll take it as a scam.
I know that's going to be my thing. I know
it's gonna happen. But I do love those things and
I love the scammers. So this particular one, I can't
wait to play with this one. Are you ready to

(01:58:12):
claim your winning?

Speaker 3 (01:58:14):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:58:15):
Hang on, you know what, I'm bear with me for
a second. I'm gonna run with this. And I know
people keep telling me don't mess with these people, but
I got to. It's in my DNA. I got to
mess with them anyhow. I just started that off. But anyhow, Yeah,
DNC spent a whole ton of money. Kamala Harris gotta

(01:58:36):
do the book deal. All that money's gonna go to
you know, there's all gonna be corrupt stuff. There's probably
gonna be all kinds of places around the world that
and be like, hey, let's buy twenty thousand bucks. She'll
be the number one best seller. Yet anybody and everybody
that you know, you'll go up to and say, hey,
did you read the Kamala's book? No, but I saw
a bunch of them over there in the dollar tree.

(01:58:57):
There was two for a dollar. You want me to
get you one. That's how they do it, that's what
they like to do. So California, there's some more pushing
back there and again don't. I don't get why the
left doesn't see this. You know, the left, the politicians
will come out and they will tell you and those
that are with the agenda to say there's nothing wrong.

(01:59:18):
Everybody loves what's going on. This is great, it's awesome. No,
it's not. There's now more California girls high school volleyball
teams that are forfeiting to go up against any of
the trans athletes. The transathlete mother who has been supportive
of her child amid the backlash. Now there's a bunch

(01:59:39):
of girls in a high school volleyball team in California
that saw two more games on its schedule forfeited among
an ongoing controversy involving trans athletes on the roster. Now,
I don't know if anybody missed this one. There was
a viral video that went out. It was a transgender
volleyball player who spi the ball into the face of

(02:00:02):
a girl on the opposing team and messed her up
like she ended up. What was it, She had a
stroke or something, and I mean the girls just she's
messed up now for life because this transgender volleyball player
spiked the ball into her face, messed up her face.
She had a stroke. She'll never be the same, all

(02:00:25):
because this transgender wanted to play as a girl in
the sports team because he was too much of a
loser to do it on the boys team. But the
mother of a female player on the high school girls
volleyball team ended up telling Fox Digital News that you

(02:00:45):
know they them. Her and the parents of the others
have had informed the team of the upcoming game against
the Rim of the World High School on August twenty fifth,
which is a coupled yesterday and Orange Vista High School
on the twin have been forfeited, and they forfeited it
because they don't want to play the transgenders. What is

(02:01:08):
it going to take for you to get this? I
mean when girls are willing to forfeit and lose rather
than play against them, do you think that maybe this
is not as accepted as you think it is. I
know you want it to be accepted lefties, but it's
not accepted, and deal with it. People do not want
it and girls should not be put into that position.

(02:01:28):
And think about this. My my niece, she was a
volleyball player throughout high school and she was amazed that
she loved it and the idea of her having to
compete against a guy, a boy that is physically just
way stronger than she will ever be. Why would why

(02:01:49):
would we force our children into doing this, especially our daughters.
And I just I don't get it, and I don't
understand why the the the politicians won't listen, and they
wonder why people are running away from the Democrat Party
as fast as they are. Those are two point four

(02:02:11):
million Democrats switched because they couldn't take it anymore. They're like, no,
we don't want to be part of this anymore. It's
just a mess. And yet they continue, and every time
you turn around there's yet another case of boys and
the transgender athlete thing. And again it's a small percentage
of the people that are out there, and yet we
are changing society and making all the society be affected

(02:02:33):
because of that. And I'm glad that they're standing up
to it and saying, no, we're not going to compete.
But we need to also stand up to these school
systems that are allowing this stuff to happen. We can't
let it happen any longer. So more of the wokeisms. God,
there's so much woke going on this is supposed to

(02:02:54):
be the big saver for the year. And this is
funny because I have a guy that works for me
who love Superman, big Superman person ready to go see Superman.
And I told him, I'm like, yeh, dude, you don't
want to go see that. And he's like, no, I
gotta go see it. Got to see Superman. And I'm
like eh. And by the way, he's very super conservative,

(02:03:17):
and I was like, you do know that it's very woke,
and he's like, no, it's Superman. Can't do that. Sure enough,
he went and saw the movie and came back and
he gave a movie review on it and said it
was the worst that it was. It was it was
very conservative, it was very woke with all this stuff
in it. It was just it was not not what
he's anticipating. And it looks like this is another summer

(02:03:39):
of woke movies becoming failures yet again. Not only did Superman,
the James Dunn directed Superman kind of flop at the
box office, so did Disney's Fantastic Four. They both kind
of failed, and Hollywood is showing they had a strong

(02:03:59):
show for the box office the first half of twenty
twenty five, when they had some things like the Minecraft
movie and Lilo and Stitch and a few others. But
it turned downward again when they went down the road
of the woke stuff. And of course you got what's
his name there? What's his name? Gruffalo, the actor who's
in the Fantastic four where nobody wants to see him

(02:04:22):
because of his politics. He's such a woke dead tard
that nobody wants to deal with it anymore. And now
they are seeing a complete failure in the box office
because of the wokeness. Again, was that your liberal brother
saw the New Superman and said it was too political

(02:04:43):
to enjoy. Damn, See that's bad. That is bad. When
and again it went very woke. It went very much
so on the left when your liberal brother saw the
New Superman said he was too political to enjoy. And
of course, the premise of a lot of it that
they were trying to hit on, because you know, you've
got to be timely, is that Superman's an immigrant. And

(02:05:08):
essentially they're pushing the idea that Superman being the illegal
immigrant that came to this country and or came to
this planet. And you know, they kind of pushed that
whole immigrant thing, and people are like, Hm, I just
don't I don't want to deal with it. And what's
sad about it is like this is the repeated thing
that we see over and over and over again, and

(02:05:31):
it's very much so the definition of insanity, where you
do the same thing over and over again and expect
a different result and it doesn't happen. I mean, at
some point you're just gonna have to wave the white
flag and be like, this didn't work. And why Disney
is continuing to do the woke things as another one

(02:05:51):
that just it kind of blows my mind a little
bit because it doesn't work. I mean, they trickle a
little bit into the getting out of a lot of
woke with Disney, but they've yet to reach full potential
of getting out of it because they keep coming out
with this stuff. Disney has lost so much money on movies,

(02:06:15):
the woke movies in the past few years. What I
also don't understand is why the board of directors continues
to let them happen. It's really sad. Was that whatever
happened to movies that were just fun like John Wick
and The Equalizer exactly. Those are great movies, by the
way the equalizer all three of was it three or
four of them? Either way? They were great movies. And

(02:06:36):
why we can't just tell a storyline instead of having
to try and convince It's like they're just going too
far to try and convince us and brainwash us. Just
entertain us. Rocky fifteen and Rambo twenty two. Yeah, you know,
I mean Rambo twenty two, Rocky fifteen, you could do
it in a nursing home setting. He's trying to fight

(02:06:58):
the nursing nurses that are trying to take him. I mean,
then there's something there. Hang on, we got to take
a quick break. We'll be right back. Good morning, all right,
welcome back to the Brian Rush Show right here on
the Florida Man Radio Network and on Rumble dot com

(02:07:20):
and wintune dot com Ford slash Brian Restler Show. Thank
you so much for getting us through your day here
today on this Taco Tuesday. I hope you're getting some tacos,
but I got a chance to subject from tacos to
something else. McDonald's. Anybody see McDonald's came out and there like, hey,
we're going to lower the prices. That's a good idea. However,
it'll be interesting to see how they're gonna be able

(02:07:40):
to do that, considering so many of the McDonald's employees
are like begging that they get paid more money. Anybody
want to bet that we're going to see a lot
more McDonald's restaurants become more and more automated. We'll going
to bet we'll see some of that happening. And of course,
at McDonald's, whose stock prices haven't been doing fans, they've

(02:08:00):
been down a little bit, but they've got to change
them things up. And apparently one of the things they're
going to do is lower the prices of something so
that they're a little bit more affordable, which, you know,
let's face it, that's kind of always how McDonald's had
been for a very long time. I mean, for any
of us who've ever struggled a little bit to get
through the day, we know that sometimes it's easy to

(02:08:24):
go ahead and just drive through the McDonald's to get
that dollar value menu. And granted, I understand that we
probably can't do a dollar value menu again because well,
things are just so expensive nowadays that you just can't
do it.

Speaker 3 (02:08:36):
By the way, did.

Speaker 2 (02:08:36):
Anybody somebody tell me correct me if I'm wrong in this.
Did they bring the snack rap back to McDonald's. Somebody
was telling me that they did, and I've also heard
that they did and that it's not the great reviews.
I always love the snack wrap and I don't get
this why restaurants do this stuff where they there's an
item on there. And we were talking about this in
the office last week too, about Taco Bell and the

(02:09:00):
Mexi Melt. You remember the Mexi Melt. Those things were
like awesome. You could get them for like fifty cents
apiece and you would go and you'd get like, you know,
six to seven dollars, five dollars worth of them, which
it was great for the moment, but you know, once
they kicked in, you're there was a whole different ballgame.
But those Mexi melts were awesome from what I understand,

(02:09:20):
though they didn't bring the really back back. But I
guess there's something that you can actually get that is
the Mexi Melt if you ask for something a little
bit different. So yeah, I don't know, I just I
would love to see Taco But bringing back to the Mexi Melt,
there's a couple of things Mexi Melt and the McDonald's
snack rap. Bringing them back I think would be a

(02:09:41):
great thing because I don't understand why they took it away,
Like everybody loved the snack rap and then like, oh
you like this psych and they take it away from you.
And then you get these places that they that they
get something that people love, like the McRib, which I,
to be perfectly honest with you, I have never had
the McRib. I have never ever had it. I hear

(02:10:02):
people rant and rave about it, but I'm thinking about
stuff going how good could a pork sandwich be at McDonald's.
But people flip out over it and they love it.
So it makes me go, why did you get rid
of it to begin with? You know, if people love
it so much, especially when it comes back, why do
you continue to get rid of the McRib? I just

(02:10:22):
I don't get it. Leave it on the menu, Leave
it on the menu until it gets to a point
where people stop buying it, and then you go, all right,
we're gonna get rid of it. Stop teasing us like that.
And you wonder why, you know, business and sales continue
to go down. It's because of stuff like that. That
and I'll be perfectly honest with you too. I am

(02:10:42):
all about the robotic burger makers. I don't know if
you've ever seen a video of these things. They're absolutely insane.
There's systems that literally will take a burger patty from
the frozen freezer, take it out of that, put it
onto the grid. We'll put it there, season it, flip it,

(02:11:03):
cook it just right, pick it up, put it in
a tray thing, and then the robot from there will
pick up that burger, will put it on a bun
perfectly because it's all laser done. It's not one of
these things where you get your burger and like the
burger is like halfway off of the bun and the
condiments are on the other side. No, puts the burger
bun burger right on top of the bun, perfectly centered.

(02:11:25):
Booze onto the next thing and comes in and puts
all the condiments perfectly on there in the area where
you're gonna bite into it, and you're gonna get the
condiment every time, not one of those a mouthful of
ketchup and then no ketchup on the next bite. It
puts like a lettuce and anything else depending on the
sandwich perfectly in there, takes the top, bun puts it
on there, and you can take that and take the

(02:11:48):
photograph and go hod damn, it's the same thing, and
it'll roll it down the conveyor belt and another robot
will pick it up put it into the bag properly.
We'll also grab a thing of French fries, pick that
up and put it in the bag properly. Which, by
the way, do you know that there's a science behind that.
There's actually a science behind your fast food bags and

(02:12:12):
the way that everything is supposed to be put into
the bag is designed so that your French fries will
stand up and not fall all over your bag. So guys,
come on, if you're doing the fast food thing, do
it right. Snack grap is in the menu, sweet baby Jay,
guess we're homeboys going for lunch today. Technically that falls

(02:12:32):
under taco it's a tortilla, so I'm going with it.
Work with me on this. But the whole robotic thing
is absolutely amazing, and on top of that, you don't
have to pay twenty five dollars an hour, and it
makes your food look good. I mean, I hate the
fact that we're getting to that point because it's eliminating
the entry level jobs. But when you're not training the

(02:12:54):
entry level people and you're expecting entry level people to
be paid at gazillion dollars, it just doesn't work out.
It really doesn't. MC Crispy, Chicken Strips, Oh, Chicken strips, Like,
who's got that now? The Chicken strips, Chick fil A,
they took their nuggets and put it into a strip.

Speaker 7 (02:13:13):
It's horrible.

Speaker 2 (02:13:13):
Keep it in the little nuggets, seriously, but that's it.
I gotta go to McDonald's now now that I know
that the snack wrap is there because it is Taco
Tuesday and I had to celebrate tacos and it is
in a tortilla, So leave me alone. I gotta go.
Have you some fantastic day. Thanks for checking us out.
