Transcription

All right, what do you got with the news?

>> Oh, we got some interesting news. So Tim Waltz, one of your faves, >> he abruptly dropped out of the Minnesota governor's race. >> Remember the weekend? >> Remember 10 minutes ago he had his phone with his app with his Wall Street app on it. He was laughing the Tesla stock was going down. He's such a douche.

By the way, whoever it is >> Mhm. >> whether it's Tim or anything co or Fouchy or or Biden or whatever, I I just want to tell them all, you know, this is not going to turn out good, right? Whatever it is you're [ __ ] saying, it's going to be thrown in your face. You're look like an [ __ ] He's also dumb, I think, is part of it with him.

Well, no, he has >> You think Tim is dumb? >> Well, here's what I think. I think he's not as calculating as >> some I don't think I don't I don't think he's you know force gump dumb but >> there's a thing that the left has which is a little bit dopey mixed with a ton of arrogance all the time like all the time and >> you you know so and the news does it too they they go oh you know >> uh Elon Musk giving a Hitler salute and then Mamami does the Hitler salute like they're too dumb Yeah. And they're arrogant. They're super arrogant. So he's arrogant and a little bit dopey, but we'll hear what he has.

>> Is he stepping down? >> We got to do the leadup to this though. So he did step down and he has this whole long statement. >> Did he step down or did he not run for a second term? >> Um he dropped out of the governor's race. So he's not You're right. Thanks for the correction. He is dropping out of running for his second term. He will finish his first term. He said, quote, in a statement, "In September, I announced that I would run for a historic, oh, sorry, third term in Minnesota's governor, and I have every confidence that if I gave it my all, I would succeed in that effort. But as I reflected on this moment with my family and team over the holidays, here's the important part. I came to the conclusion that I can't give my give a political campaign my all." He said that every minute he he spends defending his own political interests would be a minute I can't spend defending the people of Minnesota, wait for it, against criminals who prey on our generosity and the cynics who pray on our differences.

>> Oh, we hate different I I'm scared of people who look different than me. I don't know if I've told you that. >> What a laugh, man. So then he released the statement later on the day. He goes to do a press conference and he literally does not take any questions or address dropping out of the race at all.

>> All right. all here. >> I'm proud of the way we treat our neighbors. I'm proud of the way that we welcome people to this state. I'm proud of the way that we innovate. And I'm proud of the way that we are optimist for the future. >> Oh, nothing. >> No one's taking this away from us. Not the fraudsters. Certainly not this president. >> Not on my watch. >> It's funny. Funny like he he does. He goes, "Not the fraud. Not the fraudsters. And certainly not the president. >> He's more mad at Trump than he is. He's definitely more mad. Yeah. >> From us. Not the fraudsters. Certainly not this president. >> Not on my watch. >> Tomorrow I'll be back with you. I'll give you an update on America's best paid family medical leave program that is now a week into it. And at that time, I'll take all your questions. Thank you all.

>> No questions. Yeah. Why would you take questions? Why you're having a [ __ ] making a statement? You're giving a press conference. Take question. By the way, this like it always reminds me of like, well, Biden was too tired for the debate. He'd been sitting at Camp David for two weeks. What do you mean now? Like you're standing at a podium, take questions.

>> Yeah. Also, just hours after you announced that you're not running and saying that you're eluding even in that very quafted statement, you're not running because you know that this fraud scandal is going to ruin your campaign and take up all of your time. He's a douche and he's a dope and his wife is worse than him and his daughter seems worse than both of them. So [ __ ] off. Hit the [ __ ] bricks, you idiot.

>> It's $1 billion right now. And we keep hearing from these whistleblowers that they brought this to the attention of the governor's office like forever ago. >> Yes. >> I don't know. There's some there's some local reporters and activists on the ground that actually think that he made the decision because there might be more coming out. >> Oh, yeah. it it's just gonna get worse for him. And yes, he's doing this and good good riddens, but it's sad. I mean, this guy was almost vice president in the United States, which is crazy. >> I'm like, come on, Democrats. Come on. >> Come on. >> Anytime uh liberal friends of mine are like, uh, who are you guys going to run in 2028? And I'm like, well, it won't be Tim Walls or Kla Harris. So, >> yes. All right, good. He's a douche. He's gone.

>> All right. Next up, you already mentioned this guy, Zoran Manni, who's super upset about Maduro being kept as a prisoner in New York. By the way, >> you know the funny part? I was screaming about this, I think, on the show the other day where I was going, remember when we weren't going to be able to get avocados? >> Mhm. >> Or remember we moved the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, the Middle East was going to be on fire. Nothing ever happens. >> Whatever happens, you get Chuck Schumer going, "This is the most dangerous, reckless thing. This is going to cause the death of many New York, but it never happens. Like eventually you guys are the retards who cried wolf. Like at a certain point, nobody gives a [ __ ] and nothing ever happens.

>> And people I think are kind of waking up a little bit. I think that we forget, even people like me on the right sometimes forget like about the broad swath of the middle of the country that the reason why we tend to have Republicans lose the house or Democrats lose the White House is because there is a shift in the middle of the country and all of those voters that like aren't beholdened to one side and they're like, "Hey, I'm going to vote for safety in my wallet." Right. >> Right. >> And everybody's like and freaking out about it. I forgot that Karen Bass or inept dumb [ __ ] mayor was this close to being vice president as well because they needed because Biden needed a woman of color. >> Oh yeah, that was his criteria. >> It's like all right, who are the dopiest women of color on the planet? This Camala Harris and Karen Bass.

>> I don't think people are they're not duly upset enough about the whole affirmative action thing that Biden was was doing. You took you you took Well, >> we have a Supreme Court justice to show for it, too. >> Okay. Well, first off, we have another one, which is >> Sodto Mayor. >> Sodtoayor is the dingbat dumb chump who was arguing for kids to be forcibly vaccinated because she said a whole bunch of kids were hooked up to ventilators. She was lying. and she's a nut job. And an article just came out basically study out of wherever, but it said I don't think any healthy kids died of COVID, which is what I was yelling about the entire time. And so we have Soayor, who's a [ __ ] dumb [ __ ] who's trying to get your kid forcibly vaccinated. She's another DEI hire. So [clears throat] I don't think the DEI hiring thing is working out that well. No, I also think it really undermines like maybe the positives of the feminist movement when we're like, "Hey, hire us because we have hoo-has." >> Yes. >> Like that's not beneficial to women. That doesn't help equality. That doesn't help us feel like respected or appreciated in the workplace. If it's like, well, I'm only here cuz I'm a blonde with, >> you know, the movement. The movement gets set back because if you said, okay, look, what do we got in the NFL? Back to the NFL. what are quarterbacks? Well, we got uh white guys, we got black guys, and we got like uh Samoan guys or whatever. And I go, "No Jews." >> And you go, "No, we don't we don't >> think there is one. Maybe it's college football, though. >> Maybe it's college." And I go, "Well, I need some Jews in there." And you go, "Well, I I mean, we don't there's no Jewish guys even on the even backup quarterback. Well, let's get a Jew in there." And then the Jew gets in there and he just throws picks and he fumbles the ball and he gets sacked every time. Well, you would hurt the movement at that point. And then then I would go five years from now, I'd go, "How come no Jewish quarterbacks?" And I go, "Well, remember Lenny?" Yeah, that was a disaster.

>> And you actually Camala Harris and Karen Bass actually hurt the movement because you go, "Lo needs a female needs a black female to what? Burn the city to the [ __ ] ground." Like, if you're a normal person, you now associate a black female with being a shitty mayor. >> Yeah. with being a loser, >> right? So, you >> let the city burn and >> you hurt the movement. Yes. >> 100%. Another woman that's hurting the movement, a lady named Sia Weaver, who is Mumdani's new director of the city office to quote unquote I'm sorry, this is a job quote office to protect tenants. She made statements and urged her Twitter followers to elect more communists in several lecturing posts on her now deleted ex account. By the way, all all this stuff, all you're now deleted, like all your walking back. >> You're so proud of it. >> I know. That's the whole thing. Like when Camala Harris ran for president, she had to walk back every [ __ ] policy she wanted to put in place from four years earlier, >> like paying for the transitioning services for prisoners in California. >> Oh, yeah. Now, no, I'm not against fracking anymore. Like, okay. Why are we walking back your policies, notions, and ideas you had in your 50s? >> Yep. >> Why are you running away from your own ideas?

>> This gal is a little younger than that. She said that we need to see the govern government should seize private property back in June 13th of 2018. And she later doubled down on that in a mini manifesto that she posted in August of 2019. Um, she has videos dating back as late as 2017, but as recently as like 2024. Here's a here's a brief clip of her ranting about some of her communist beliefs.

>> I think the reality is is that for centuries we've really treated um property as an individualized good and not a collective good and we are going to tr and transitioning to treating it as um a collective good and to towards a model of shared equity will require that we think about it differently. And it will mean that um families, especially white families, but some POC families who are homeowners as well, um are gonna have a different relationship to property than than the one that we currently have.

>> I think the reality then >> it's all extra talk. Maybe she should talk to the like black chamber of commerce about how they are against estate um taxes and fines and death taxes and fines and property taxes and fines because they know that a great a family's greatest opportunity out of poverty is having like a home that they can pass down for generations.

>> Also, hey [ __ ] it's not your money. It's not your money. They they think it's their money. That's the scary part. And then the other thing is is anytime someone wants me to reimagine anything, I'm out. >> I don't I don't want to reimagine Mary Poppins and I don't want to reimagine homeownership and I don't want to go We have to think differently about how we used to think. I don't want to reimagine beauty. I'm not into the fat chicks on the Dove billboard. I'm not into reimagining or rethinking anything. This is how we think because it makes I'm set in my ways. So, it's not a part of your New Year's resolution to like try something new or embrace a new thought. >> New things are great. You telling me to reimagine beauty is not going to work for me. I have a pretty good idea. >> Reimagine home ownership, Adam, can't you reimagine like being more equitable in your property? They they have a serious fundamental problem which is they are relying on people to not be human beings.

>> Oh, >> and that is a huge fundamental problem. >> But part of this is part of being human is to be slightly selfish in a lot of ways. And I would say that America has the least selfish people based on charitable donations and everything that we do for our neighbor and for others. Mhm. >> the result of what happened and how everybody came together post the fires is a perfect example of that. >> But it's like they are so selfish in in the way that they live their lives in addition to how they want everyone to support and applaud the way that they live their lives. All while they're telling you you need to give up everything that you've worked really hard for for yourself and your family. >> Yes. They have no idea that we're unable to pull off whatever this is. M >> now if it would work then I would I would applaud it as well. I but we live in a society where people pull copper wire out of street lights. >> So no, we cannot be left alone or unsupervised or left or play nice or share. It's not going to it's not going to work that way. >> Or even to pretend that everybody has the same thing or equal things to share. You're really talking about taking away from the rich and then the middle class because that's what happens when you scare away all the rich people from New York. Then you're gonna start really negatively affecting the middle class in New York and go down from there.

>> All their ideas are bad. It could be about community policing. It could be about borders. It could be stop and frisk. I fighting against everything. It they're [clears throat] essentially they fight against what I say is gravity or something. It's it's basically they're asking for something that's not achievable. >> And they live in some sort of utopian sort of fantasy world where if we took every black citizen and gave them a million dollars, then the black community would be uplifted or something. It's like, no, it would not it would not work at all. It would and and most of them half of them would OD within a week. like none of your ideas will ever work. The all the, you know, show compassion for the homeless, bring them into our homes, have judgmentfree injection zones where they can inject themselves with cleanly with clean. >> None of your ideas ever work because they can't because they're being applied to human beings and human nature is not that. Mhm. >> And and not only is it not that, it's a lot worse than it was a hundred years ago. We may have been able to pull off some of these ideas when people were god-fearing, family oriented. Yeah. And believed, >> you mean when the family and the church were still involved in everyday life compared to now? >> If you took, you know, if you took one, let's just put it to you this way. 150 years ago, you go six and a half out of every 10 Americans sort of understands the Ten Commandments and sort of lives by it. >> Okay. Then you'd go, "All right, then." And that is a world where we can pull off some of this stuff because these people go by the Ten Commandments. >> If you're living in a world now where seven Americans go by the Ten Commandments, then no, we cannot do this. It's basically >> I I say it all the time, but I really mean it. If if everyone in your societyy's following the Ten Commandments and you're out of town for Halloween, you can leave a big bucket of candy on the porch and say, "Limit yourself to one place." Yep. >> And that'll work. >> Not anymore. >> Well, would it work? No, it is not going to work. Okay. Well, then we have people that don't follow that. Mhm. >> And for those people that cannot be trusted with daycare money, with clean injection zones, with bring your dog to the airport and whatever, whatever. >> That was such a wide range of options [laughter] there. >> It's all human frailty and it's all on display all the time. And that's why when you go into the CVS, they've locked up the deodorant >> and >> Target too, man. >> And the batteries. We have to build cages around things because we have such a problem with dignity and character.

>> And there's no way that we can simultaneously have a society that has batteries, spray paints, and hairspray in cages at every store. Barbwire around the freeway signs. and we're on basically the honor system when it comes to you getting money from the state with your autistic child who's on the spectrum. >> Mhm. >> It will all be exploited. It will never work. So there is there can be no more trust and no more system. Now it's sad that we got to this point, but we're here now >> and these [ __ ] politicians are the ones who ushered this [ __ ] in. >> Yeah. Yes. >> Do you want to hear about somebody else that Mandani appointed? >> They're all the best. Well, they're all women or something of color and they're all dumb dumb shits. >> Uh Dena Levi or Levy is a woman is a new commissioner of housing preservation and development. >> Yeah. >> Um she's currently serving as senior vice president of the single family and community development of New York's Division of Homes and Community Renewal. >> By the way, all of this stuff, you guys haven't dealt with it. It's just one more permit, one more place, one more check, one more thing. Most of these people get paid. >> They get paid a ton. But better better yet, you know what I was kind of You know what I was ruminating on today? >> You like that word? >> I like to ruminate. >> You like to ruminate, but you also like to use the word >> I ruminate. I was ruminating today. I was thinking I'm looking at you, Dawson. You know, there's this building site that's down the street that I'm obsessing on because of the pileasters and the quesons and the seaw walls and the and the rebar and the concrete and the shot and it's it's they're building a a cement bunker up the street on PCH >> because all the regulations and all the whatever. >> Yeah. >> And I was down there >> and I've been down to that job. They're tired of seeing me at this job site. [laughter] I walk around, I take pictures. What are you doing? It's a bunch of coffee and you pretend that you're the foreman. It's a bunch of Mexicans and they have no [ __ ] idea what the gringo's doing with this camera once again. But I just fil film film. But the guy me and Andrew ran into last time we're there were once again a deputy inspector. >> Oh. >> All right. So, here's what I want you guys to dwell on. No longer do you call the inspector to come from the city to come inspect the job site. Now, here's how job sites work. Job sites work this way. Traditionally, you go, I got a piece of land. I want to build a house. Then city building and safety goes submit your plans. That's called plan check. And then they look at your plans and they look at engineering. Yeah. And they look at all the stuff that you've submitted. >> And they'll they flag stuff. They go, I got number four rebar here should be number five. And there's no Simpson hold downs here. I'd like to see some of those. and and they just by the way it keeps going up more more bigger bigger stronger deeper fatter >> and more money that more money and they keep flagging stuff and then >> you write them a check cuz of course why shouldn't you pay them to build the house that you're going to and pay taxes on and then pay them the taxes on it. And by the way, when you take the house and you do all your home improvements on it, it goes from a million dollars to 1.7, it gets reassessed and then you pay more in taxes. And you certainly pay more if it's a dirt lawn and a dirt lot and you build a house there. Now you pay them taxes, but you still have to cut them a check. >> Yes. >> For the permits, >> for the privilege of building a house that you're paying for on your own. And then traditionally the way it would work is you would form the foundation and you would call for an inspection. >> Mhm. >> And then the guy would come in from his office. Not in a real timely way, but you call for an inspection. A guy come by, look around, okay, put that piece of rebar up on a riser and think, "Okay, you're good to pour." And then you do the pour for the foundation and then uh start framing. Frame. When you're done with the framing, call for another f another inspection. Inspection. See, that's right. Then electrical inspection, then a plumbing inspection, and blah blah blah. At some point, the guy go, "You can close up the walls. We're good." But lately, and more recently, and I I mean, it's been it's been 15 or 20 years, they've decided, "Why do we have our guys coming from the office and driving over to your place?" Well, I would argue it's your rules and I cut you a check. That's why I didn't want to do this. You want to do it. No, no, no. I'll tell you what. Why don't we invent a position called the deputy inspector? Oh, so you have a deputy inspector from No, no, not from our office. This is a separate thing. >> Oh. >> Oh, so you're going to pay No, no, we're not paying. You're paying a guy to do the job we don't [ __ ] feel like doing. So, you came into our office, showed us plans, cut us a check, and now we don't want to leave our office and come look at your [ __ ] But you can hire somebody at your expense called the deputy inspector and then he'll watch your [ __ ] and then he'll bring the [ __ ] back to us and then we won't have to move at all. >> Oh my goodness. >> So I've been on this job more than once on on PCH and I see the deputy inspector and these [ __ ] guys are they're not getting minimum wage. They're engineers with a history, a background that all they do is stand there and and watch. They want to make sure they can certify whatever this thing is. These guys stand on this job site all [ __ ] day and get paid a king's ransom and you pay them. So, whoever's doing all the quesons and all the seaw walls now has to also pay for the deputy inspector. But here's what I was thinking. when it comes to your job site and these guys are fanatical about inspections, meaning >> I have done more than one project where an inspector just pulled up on his own accord, got out of his car, walked onto the job site on into my house in one case and onto another building in another case and literally went, "What's going on?" And we're like, "Who are you?" "I'm I'm a building inspector. What is going Who's in charge here?" And you go, "Uh, who's a homeowner?" I go, "I don't know. You have a permit for this?" "No, >> you don't have a permit for what's going on here?" "Well, I was just fixing the drywall. >> Shut it down. Shut it down." Right? You on that ladder, get down. >> My libertarian side go home. >> Everyone goes home. And when you get your when you get your plans together and you get your permit and you get your whatever, you can come back and see me. Until then, there's nothing going on here now. Get out. He's standing in my house telling me, "Shut it down." That's what they do. Deputy inspectors, building inspectors, and by the way, there is no sliding anything past them. There's no, "Well, we closed up the wall. Why didn't inspect the electrical wiring?" Well, take my word for it. No. Take the drywall back off the wall. Okay. Lord. All right. But when it comes to Somali daycare centers, [laughter] >> nobody comes to Somali daycare CENTERS. NOT NEARLY as stringent, RIGHT? >> NOPE. >> NO. THAT'S NOTHING. WHEN IT comes to you taxpayer, building your own home at your own expense, they are up your ass 247 nonstop. And when it comes to overseeing CO checks going to prisoners, >> not so much inspection going on. Notice that? >> No. And in New York, it's just going to get worse. I mean, New York has been so unfriendly to the ability to build, which is why there's insane rents. So, this lady who works over there, she, this is what mom Donnie said about her. She's an experienced and fearless housing. >> Everyone's fearless and everyone's a hero. >> Like, is everybody Why do you have to be fearless if you're in housing? Dude, how about you do your [ __ ] job, [ __ ] >> I would say like fearless is a description I'd have for, you know, Seal Team Six. >> Mhm. [laughter] >> Not a lady that works at an office in city hall. Okay. Anyway, and he says that she he knows that she will fight to protect tenants and >> everybody's fighting. Everyone's a hero and everyone's fearless. >> Tackle the housing crisis head on, >> right? The housing crisis is there's not enough inventory because you guys made it way too expensive to build. So if you'd like to address that, we could address the housing crisis. >> Be accepting of the free market and capitalism working and reduction of government, which he does not want to do. >> Right. It's too easy. Too too easy, Adam. And it's their fault.
