Los Angeles is in crisis mode with high levels of homelessness and crime, and the mayoral primary is heating up with Reality TV star Spencer Pratt giving Mayor Karen Bass a run for her money. Meanwhile, the Jewish community in New York City is facing a surge in anti-Semitism, and Donald Trump's endorsements are having a significant impact on the Republican Party's chances in the midterms.

Hi, everyone. Welcome to One Nation. I'm Bryant Killmead. Hope you had a great weekend. It's going to end strong here on One Nation tonight.

Look at our guest lineup. Harvey Levin, an LA native, wants to talk about the mayoral race and the governor's race. Fascinating results could be happening on Tuesday. Sid Rosenberg has had it with the socialist mayor and the anti-Semitism, the latest blow. He refuses to show up to Israeli Day Parade.

First mayor in New York history not to do that. And Jamie Lissow, his rival, Bruce Springsteen, he's taking him on again tonight. But first, all eyes are on Los Angeles this week, with voters there heading to the polls Tuesday for the mayoral primary. Reality TV star Spencer Pratt shaking up the high-stakes race, giving Mayor Karen Bass a run for her money. to the mayor Karen Bass's The thousand firefighters that were available, but there were no engines for them because of the $17 million that Chief Crowley had asked the mayor for nine weeks before.

And Mayor Karen Bass denied it.

So they may have been available, but they didn't have the equipment they needed. Councilwoman Robbins plan for treatment first. I will go below the Harbor Freeway tomorrow with her, and we can find some of these people she's going to offer treatment for. She's going to get stabbed in the neck. Downtown is so unsafe now that they have to serve the food.

All the employees have to eat inside. She doesn't care about safety. She doesn't care about anything she's talking about. At least Mayor Bass pretends to care. Pratt insists this campaign is about voters who are fed up with failed leadership, years of it.

Homelessness, crime, dirt, and grime, and in this case, the LA fires. Pratt getting into the race after he lost his own home in the Palisades fire, and he's emerging as a competent candidate, personally motivated to reform, not being a Republican or a Democrat. Yeah. I'm a registered Republican, but my supporters are all Democrats because Los Angeles is all Democrats. All the people financing me are Democrats.

All the meetings I take every day are Democrats. Democrats are very angry with what happened to Los Angeles. I'm resonating across the country or even outside of the country is because all I focus on is the truth. I'm the look around candidate. I do basics.

I don't do national politics. I don't do parties. As much as everybody wanted to believe the people that have been in charge, my opponents combined are at almost 10 years of their experience, they are failures. And so people want an outsider. I'll tell you, I was impressed when he was on the couch on Fox and Friends this week.

But the rise of Pratt is bigger than Los Angeles. It's the taking back of Democratic-run cities in my mind, because one thing is clear: all parties stuck in these blue cities are having their lives adversely affected by crime, homelessness, high taxes and filth. Where in the past Republicans have thrown up their white flags and says, hey, we can't win there. Let's not waste our money. If Pratt is successful, in my view, it'll be a template for taking back other Democratic-run cities, candidates running on pure common sense, cities like Chicago, Philadelphia, Austin, and in three years, perhaps even New York City.

We've already seen a glimmer of hope emerge from a moderate Democrat named Dan Lurie in San Francisco. This guy has actually made that city livable again. And guess what? He had no experience either. Could Pratt be the next step?

Let's ask LA Native, TMZ executive producer, Mr. Everything, Harvey Levin. Harvey, if anybody wants to know the reality on the ground in Los Angeles, they go to you. What if Pratt's chances do you think? Polls aside, what do you think?

Well, I mean I I think he's going to be in the runoff, and I think it's going to be between Karen Bass and Spencer Pratt. Uh and a lot of this really just has to do with the fact That LA is a mess right now. I have an employee here who was in his car in downtown LA two nights ago and was shot at. And his car got hit. He's thankfully okay.

But 10 years ago, 15 years ago, downtown had this renaissance, and people were moving down there, restaurants were opening up, businesses opening up, and it was really a place to go. It was a destination. And now, you know, the sense people have outside of that area is you're crazy to go downtown. Why would you do that?

So that is a Kind of a glimmer of what's going on in this city. Homelessness is terrible right now. We just have a real problem here. And then when you hear people say, oh, it's gotten better. Um, you know, it's sort of like, who are you going to believe?

Me or your lion eyes. But this city is a mess, and I think. that Spencer Pratt has struck a chord. That said. Um I will say this.

I do think experience matters. Experience of running a big organization. Um he doesn't have that. And I think that is something people should think about, but they don't. They think about campaign ads, they think about sizzle, and they think about their upset.

But right now, this city is not functioning well, period.

So, and you've been there a while. By the way, the numbers are pretty astounding. In 2022, you had 41,980 homeless. You know, that's you're rounding it off.

Now, 2025, 43,699. Even if it decreased to 18%, like Karen Bass said, that's still incredibly high and the highest in the country. And more people are leaving Los Angeles than coming in. Harvey, this was the destination for every graduate from college, every would-be, wannabe star, and that is just been repelled so far because there's not enough opportunity. Let's talk about the celebrity culture.

We talked about Spencer Pratt. He said, I don't want celebrity votes, but Leo DiCaprio, Jamie Foxx, Paris Hilton, among the celebrities who said, Go for it, you got my support. And the numbers that he has raised: 22.7 million, as opposed to Bass with 283,000. What are your takeaway from those two stats?

Well, look, Spencer is resonating. There's no question about it. And, you know, celebrities supporting him. You know, it happens every election cycle, and I don't think they make a hell of a difference, frankly. And, you know, people have a feeling about this city.

Now, I will say. Karen Bass. has A lot of support in this city. This is a big city. And I could talk to you about homelessness, I can talk to you about the fires, I can talk to you about the fact that Hollywood is virtually dead now because of over-regulation.

But That doesn't affect a lot of people in the city. It is a big city. And in the last election, Karen Bass won handily. And she has a base.

So you should not count Karen Bass out. It is a Democrat city. And she has a base here that is strong.

So just because Spencer is resonating right now, I think he'll be in the runoff. But frankly, I think the big issue is who is going to mobilize the vote better. And maybe Spencer has an edge there because usually people who are dissatisfied are the ones most animated to go to the polls. And that, I think, favors him. But don't discount Karen Bass's base in LA.

Understood. You run a business too, so I know it matters to you, but let's talk about Hollywood, especially TMZ. That's where you're located. It has left Los Angeles to a degree, so that means people aren't coming here for their big break like they used to. Is there a way to get the tax incentives back to bring to put those studios back to work?

I think you hear politicians both at the state and local level here saying, yes, we can do it, we're going to do this with tax incentives. I think the ship has sailed. That my company right now, when you look at Fox Syndication, they've moved their headquarters to Atlanta. from LA. because it is just so much cheaper to be able to do a production there.

And the network is doing shows in Ireland, they're doing shows in Canada, there are other studios doing work in Kentucky, in, you know, there are like four or five states. Nashville is a big hub right now, where the tax incentives are better, there's less regulation.

So people have already started flocking there, and these cities are developing their own little Hollywood.

So if you want to shoot a movie in Nashville, there is now a supporting operation there with camera people and grips and all the other stuff because they're getting so much work that even if we change the tax incentives in LA, you know, now it's getting them back when they've already moved there.

So I think we're in trouble.

So Harvey, I look at you, you run a business, started with nothing, everything you do is successful, you're also a lawyer. I think Harvey Levin should run at one point, because you could turn around that city. There is absolutely no chance in the world that would happen. I see some wiggles. And I'm kind of watching what's going on here.

And I just want to say one other thing, because I just think this is so important. You know, the crazy thing to me about politics is that you look at a candidate and you say, I like him or I hate him. There's nothing in between. And most people have virtues and flaws. And if you talk about somebody's flaw, you want to sink their campaign.

And you're either 100% for them or it's zero. And we look at candidates in the wrong way. I mean, when you look at Spencer Pratt's ads, this just in. He's not Batman. but the ads portray him as Batman.

And look, he's got flaws. I've talked to people who love him. I've talked to people who hate him. And it's probably somewhere in the middle there. But I just don't think you can look at anybody as a savior.

You've got to pick the best of what you got. San Francisco is giving you a template. They're starting to turn things around. And I don't think Democrat or Republican, and he's not that experienced in politics. Harvey, thanks so much.

Congratulations on all your success. Really appreciate it, Brent. All right, President Trump on a winning streak in the Republican primary so far. Big time. The latest Texas Attorney General Ken Paxon, notching a win in the Lone Star State.

It was a bitter battle against John Corner, who's been there for a long time. It spanned over a year and it became the most expensive Senate primary in history. What is the impact of the Trump endorsements on the actual midterms winning in November, with divided Democrats and their moderate establishment candidates in more than 60% of their primaries losing to far-left candidates? That kind of scares me for the country, by the way. But is the House still in play?

And can Republicans maintain their majority in the Senate in November? Let's ask the co-hosts of the Ruthless Podcast, the pride of Fox now: Josh Holmes, Michael Duncan, John Ashcroft, and Comfortably Smug. Welcome, guys. Great to see you. Josh, let me start with you.

What about the power of Trump? Nine for nine in the Senate, 101 for 101 overall. It is Donald Trump's Republican Party, and there should be absolutely no question about that. It's been evident for quite some time. But if you need any further evidence, you've seen it over the last couple of weeks.

I will say, I think Ken Paxton was going to win that Texas primary no matter what. That runoff situation we've talked a lot about on the Ruthless Variety program, custom-made for a candidate like him. And I think he's now going against a Democrat who, you know, to be honest with you, he makes Pete Buttigig look like Dick Bucus.

So I feel like he's got a good shot. Guys, we're in. He's won statewide. Yeah, Brian, he's won statewide there many times. This is a guy who can win, especially the more people learn about James Tallarico.

You know, there's a lot of speculation about how much this race is going to cost. It is going to be in the hundreds of millions of dollars. You can be sure that Democrats are going to invest almost everything they have in that state. But at the end of the day, it's a red state. It's voted for the president many, many times, and I think it's going to go red this fall.

Yeah, and when it comes to James Tallarico, it's not like we're running against George Washington here. You know, I mean, he makes Beto O'Rourke look like a competent candidate.

So, I mean, I like our chances. I know after primaries, Republicans, you know, after all the infighting, have a hard time coming back together sometimes. But I think as you ramp up into the fall, especially with Donald Trump leaning into this midterm, I know there's a lot of talk of a midterm convention and him hitting the campaign trail. I think that's going to be good momentum for candidates like Ken Paxton. Smug, the only thing is before.

You weigh in. I just think that people should point out that he's got a divorce. Ken Pax is a very public divorce. It's going to get messy like most do, but this will be public. And there are investigations into his past, and he's been impeached by a Republican chamber over in Texas.

Should that worry Republicans? I think what Republicans in Texas are concerned about is what the person that gets elected is going to do for them. I think they're less concerned with allegations made that are in a divorce than they are with a candidate like James Tellerica, who says that while God is non-binary and he spends all his time thinking about trans children, so his concerns are not aligned with what the people of Texas want for their future. His concerns are aligned with what his far-left donors want to hear, which is him saying that, like, I want trans children to be the most important issue. You forgot about neighbors with uteruses, which is what he calls women.

I mean, that's a significant problem. That's something that voters actually care about. That is true.

So let's talk more about the Democrats. And if you look at the Emerson poll about likely candidates in 28, and this is going to be intriguing, especially for you guys who talk politics all the time solidly, they're going to have a contested primary first time since Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton went at it. Pete Budigas, I was shocked by this. Number one, Newsom 2. AOC was at 11%, then Shapiro, Harris, and Bashir are on this list.

Is that your guy? Josh, if you want to start and work your way through. Is Pete Buddhajudge really the answer? He was a failed transportation secretary and a mediocre mayor. No, I feel like they may have done that maybe in the whitest, most affluent suburb in the history of America, because every other poll that I've seen nationwide shows Kamala Harris with like a 30 percent lead.

And you can tell by the way that Democrats are entering into this race. You saw Gavin Newsom try to separate a little bit. Just this week, you had Governor Shapiro in Pennsylvania take a very thinly veiled shot. I think the first real incursion into Kamala Harris's world by saying, I think the Democratic Party needs something new. Of course, she's not new, having lost the previous election.

So I think it is hers right now. But I own, honestly, dude, there's not a dime's worth of difference in any of them. That's the problem. That's the problem is so many of those candidates that you mentioned have already been on the record and cursed with raising their hand during a debate when they were asked, would you give illegal aliens free health care, free college, free everything? And every Democrat on that stage raised their hand and will forever be tainted in the minds of American voters with, listen, this election, this previous one, was decided because we decided we want a secure border.

We do not want this to be a country where we support illegal aliens more than we support our own citizens. And everyone that you mentioned has been on the side of illegal aliens.

So before you answer, Michael, Michael, before you answer, I do want to get the Republicans in, but I want to ask you this. There is a difference. AOC is a flat-out socialist. She's being pushed by Bernie Sanders. On this list, others are kind of straddling the line.

She wants to change the country.

So that is a difference, don't you think? Yeah, I think that's true. But none of these people have been asked to have a vision for the country without Donald Trump as the backdrop. And I expect this horse race to change leaders a number of times. Times here over the next year.

I think the person who ultimately rises to the top is going to have to have some brand new message that exists beyond Donald Trump. John, can I just have you go to the Emerson poll and the GOP side? Vance hasn't committed to running. He does have a new kid on the way, and I do think he's entertaining. Maybe not.

Maybe I'm naive. But he's got a one-point lead over Marco Rubio and then Yaron DeSantis and Nikki Haley. Haley says she's not running, and I think Ted Cruz has all but said he is. Anyone else belong on that list, and how do you feel about the tightness between Rubio and Vance?

Well, I mean, Ted Cruz is rumored to be interested, although he hasn't said definitively one way or the other. But the reality is, if you look at the Republican list, I feel like it's head and shoulders above anything Democrats have to offer right now. I think J.D. would be an incredible candidate. He's really tapped in to problems inside of our country, the forgotten man, sticking up for people who feel like they have no voice here in America.

And then you got Marco Rubio, who's doing a hell of a job across the globe as the Secretary of State.

So we sort of have a murderer's row of opportunity in 2028 for Republicans. And, you know, as a GOP, Booster, I really like to see it. Honestly, when I see that polling, what I see is that the Vance Rubio tickets got 70%. Looks pretty good. If they're together, but he'd have to resign as Secretary of State to go to campaign.

I don't think Trump wants to give him up, but we'll see. Does anybody think that they both run at the same time? Because I don't. No, I don't. And I do think that there are some institutional issues.

Hatch Act prevents anybody other than the Vice President from going out to campaign. He would have to resign, as you pointed out, Kilmead. I just want to make one thing on the Democratic deal: when you like, there are a difference. There isn't. What is the difference?

Is how you message it. They want the Abigail Spamberger routine, which is AOC, except you say that you're moderate and you say you won't do all the things that once you're in office with, you ultimately end up not a dime's worth of difference. It's just how you present yourself. And Josh, you're 100% right. Joe Biden did the same thing to us.

Mikey Sherrill did it in New Jersey, and we're getting it in Virginia, too. Guys, great to have you on.

So glad you kicked off Sunday night with us. Appreciate it.

Meanwhile, New York has never been more hostile to the Jewish community than it is right now. And Mayor Mom Donnie has a lot to do with that. Sid Rosenberg from WABC joins me next and still to come. Bruce Springsteen continues his anti-American tour. Commedian Jamie Lissow is not laughing about it.

He's going to weigh in and doesn't sing as good as Bruce, but I like him more. Be sure to watch me on tour, by the way. Pensacola, Florida is my next stop on the 11th. And then huge dates in the fall from Westbury, Long Island to Red Bank, New Jersey, to Clearwater, to Jacksonville, to St. Louis coming up in the The 21st, BrianKilme.com, all on Fox Nation.

Don't move. Yeah. Do not know who I am, but some know that I'm good long as you're here with me To be drunk and enough in New York City Talk is easy, but who's willing to step up? This is a huge match! Go face to face.

Man to man when it counts.

Well that's exactly how things get settled here. On the map. Emotions boiling under. That is why you tune in to Fox Nation. Make your move.

Real American Freestyle, exclusively on Fox Nation. Everybody's got a plan until they get taken down.

So New York has never been more hostile to the Jewish community than it is today. There's no question Mayor Zorah Mdani has made everything worse. From his threats to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu whenever he comes to New York, To his inept response to constant anti-Semitic activity, which is all over New York, ultimately resulting in being the first mayor not to march in today's Israeli Day Parade. And now a famous Brooklyn food co-op has voted to boycott Israeli products. Not a word from him.

This is not a surprise to our next guest, Sid Rosenberg, the host of Sid and Friends of the Morning on New York 77WABC, number one city, number one station. He's also a member of the Holocaust Memorial Museum Council. The president pointed you to that. Yes. You knew this was going to be bad.

Is this worse than you thought in terms of for Jews in New York? It's much worse. And I did know it was going to be bad, and so did you. But this is, Brian, this is much worse. This guy, and look, it's not just him, it's his whole family.

His father is an anti-Semite, responsible for a lot of those campus problems at Columbia. His wife is a wretched, vile anti-Semite, liking graphic images of girls being raped and babies being murdered back on October the 7th.

So the whole family, a bunch of Jew-hating anti-Semites. And whether it's no buffer zones in front of synagogues or schools in New York City, not showing up to the parade, first one to do that since 1964. His constant rhetoric about globalizing the intifada, Israel's not really a Jewish state. Time and time again, this guy's had an opportunity to prove us wrong. He fails every time.

He's a bad guy. He's an anti-Semite.

So anti-Semitism hit the third highest on record in 2025. Got 4,000 counts of harassment, over 2,000 vandalisms, 203 assaults, a total of 6,274 incidents. Have you felt it? Oh, I felt it, no question about it. You know, it's high-profile personalities in New York.

Yeah. They still get in your grill? Yeah, I mean, they don't get my grow because, I mean, take a look.

Well, Brian, let's be honest about that. You got your guns. Yeah, I got guns. But in all honesty, a lot of them are cowards. I'm being serious.

So they're going to pick on the little kid wearing a yarmulko. They're going to pick on the guy wearing tzzis and the guy just coming out of temple. They're not going to pick on a bald, tan guy who looks like the rock. But the truth is that no one is safe these days. And this guy hangs out with the likes of Mahmoud Khalil and Nerdin and all these people who also hate Jews.

These are his buddies, not the rabbis, but these people. He says, I don't agree with Israeli policies. That's for that's why I didn't march in the parade. He's a liar. Look, here are the facts.

This parade is not being held. It wasn't held, I should say, earlier today in Tel Aviv. This parade earlier today was not in Jerusalem. If that was the case, you hate Bibi, look, I think you're an anti-Semite, but you're entitled. You hate Bibi, you hate Israel.

Don't go to Jerusalem. This parade, last night checked earlier today, Fifth Avenue, New York City. That's where this bum won. It was our votes, not mine particularly, but New Yorkers voted for this guy. This parade was in New York.

Not in Israel.

So let's talk about something that's sports related but gets into politics. You were at an event with Jackson Dart. He was asked to, he's the quarterback of the New York Giants. He was asked to introduce President Trump. He said, of course I'd like to do it.

And he did it. And you're seeing some video now, some stills. You were there, he called you up on stage, too. When he made that introduction, that caused evidently unrest in the Giant locker room. Fellow number one pickup, Duel Carter, once said, he said, Are we really doing this?

He put out a tweet that he's upset. The Giants had an emergency meeting. Please help me with this. What is the problem with introducing President Trump? There should be no problem at all.

You made this point on your radio show time and time again because you're great. Whether it's LeBron James helping out Hillary Clinton, we've seen so many examples of athletes helping out Democrats. Nobody says a word. By the way, black athletes helping out President Trump, from Lawrence Taylor to L'I'Veon Bell, nobody says a word. But the white quarterback from Ole Miss, if he introduces President Trump, that's a problem.

So, yes, what did Dart do? He agreed to have that meeting on Wednesday with the Giants, with head coach John Harbaugh. And the one guy, the one guy that gave Jackson Dart the most trouble this week, Abdul Carter, decided, I'm not coming. He had some family excuse, some nonsense.

So Dart addressed the whole team. He had players on that team in tears, but the biggest troublemaker who's yet to make a play for the Giants, first-round James Choice, yet to make a big play, Abdul Carter, he doesn't even show up.

So I want you to hear the president was asked by Lara Trump about having Jackson Dart introduce him and some of the blowback he's experienced. Watch. He's a handsome guy, like a beautiful guy, and a conservative guy. He said, I love you, sir. And I didn't know he was doing that, you know, but he's potentially a great quarterback.

He's a young boy, he had just really started. But when he's in a game, he moves the team. And I didn't know him, but I watched him a little bit. He's a great guy.

So, look, he got blowback. I don't get it because the president got more black votes than Mitt Romney, John McCain, George W. Bush. He's gotten the whole Democratic Party nervous. I don't get it.

So, who's closer? President Trump and Laura Trump.

Well, you and I. I think mean you. I think so too. I think so too. By the way, where am I Trump pin?

Just, you know, the Trump.

Well, I'll tell you what, I'd be a lot closer to you if you found a way to get me cheap Nick tickets. They're in the finals first time since 1999. Look at the unprecedented prices. You're talking about $40,000 for two tickets to the Spurs, Spurs, or whoever's in the finals. I forgot.

Thunder. Who knows? But whoever they play, it's $40,000? I mean, what's going on here?

Well, they are giving away, though. Don't forget, they're giving away a lot of tickets to youth who can't afford it. They are doing that, the Knickerbockers, Jimmy Dolan, about well into the hundreds of tickets of giving away to underprivileged youth. But you're right, this is the most expensive ticket in the city. And let's not forget who's coming, President Trump.

I had Trump on a radio show a couple of weeks ago before they beat Cleveland, after they beat Billy. I said, you still love the Knicks? He said, of course I do. I like Jim Dolan. This is a really good basketball team.

He's going to be there in one of these games. And they actually asked the mayor. Just yesterday in New York City, would you sit next to President Trump at a nickname? Would you be happy to sit next to President Trump? He said, and I quote.

If anyone comes, that's fine. What? It's the dumbest response ever. And Kathy Hochle tried to say he's not a Nick fan. He's been a Nick fan before she was a fan.

Kathy Hochl, who said that Michael Jordan, Scotty Pippen, and the Bulls won the 1993 championship. She said it was the New York Knicks. Right. She's a little confused. She's a dope.

Right. That's why Bruce Blakeman's going to win. Oh, I hope so. Great to see you soon. It's an honor to follow you on 77WABC.

You're great. It's an honor to go before you fantastic. I was going to cut you off until you started saying you care. And then you decided not to. Thanks, Sam.

'Kay. No move.

Next, only on One Nation, Miranda Devine here with the media moments that matter most to us. And please check out my new YouTube channel. Go youtube.com at the Brian Kill Me Show. Everybody's talking about it. Hey, yeah, boy, you made me wonder.

Welcome to Fox News Live. I'm Marianne Rafferty in Los Angeles. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was vowing to expand his country's grip on Lebanon after the IDF captured a historic and strategic castle in southern Lebanon. It marks Israel's deepest incursion into Lebanon in 26 years. The move comes as Israel and Hezbollah continue to trade strikes despite a U.S.-brokered ceasefire.

Israel and Lebanon are set to hold more talks in the coming days to keep the ceasefire on track. And the death toll is rising from a growing Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda. The World Health Organization saying more than 40 people are confirmed to have died from the virus, and over 340 others are suspected to have died from it. More than 1,100 suspected cases are still under investigation. The WHO also says five people have recovered from the Ebola strain.

I'm Mary Ann Rafferty, now back to One Nation. Yeah. Media moments that matter. All right, it's time for everyone's favorite segment, the world's favorite segment. This week I gave my OnlyVCR, my TV Guide subscription, all my cords and my tape stock to Fox News contributor, podcast extraordinaire, host, Miranda Devine from the New York Post.

Great to see you, Miranda. You too, Brian.

So I gave you this assignment. You have to do columns after columns in a podcast. Were you able to get three? Oh my gosh, it was just a core new copia. Thank you for choosing me.

Yes. Because it was right in my wheelhouse. Jill Biden. She has a new book out next week. $30 million is their book contract.

And she has been doing the media rounds lying. Unbelievably. Listen to this. I was frightened. Because I had never ever.

seeing Joe like that. Before or since. Never since. Yes. What happened?

I don't know what happened. I mean, as I watched it, I thought, oh my God, he's having a stroke. and it scared me to death.

So, Miranda, she's lying. She is absolutely lying, and there are people on the record. saying that she's lying, that work behind the scenes with her and with him. And all of us know that she's lying. I mean, she's talking about the debate, the disastrous debate.

And she says she's never seen him like that before in private moments or afterwards. Nobody believes that because we saw him like that. It was just a culmination of what everybody believed was true. He collapsed on stage. And if she really thought he was having a stroke, I mean, do you believe her?

What decent wife would let him continue the debate and then go to an after-party and then go to Waffle House? Yeah, and by the way, He's used to getting from normal, clear-thinking people. People have been calling him out for four years when he was president. But the Bidens aren't used to what they're getting from the left. You are so right.

They're used to people pretending that they believe the lies, and now the Democrats have got nothing invested because Joe doesn't have any money or any power.

So, this is what the Democrats are saying now. It's pretty ugly. Other people did see him act like that in the months before and in the months after that. And those moments became increasingly hard to predict. And I just wonder if that's not something that the Democrats are not going to have to deal with for the next two years, or at least that may come up.

Conversation should be had about the. Deceptiveness that was behind this. Like, that's the conversation that I think ought to be happening. Joe Biden was not going to be a credible candidate for president because of his age and declining health. But he wasn't a credible president, and now you're saying that after he dropped down, it's been two years.

They're mad at people for bringing it up again. It's because she has a book, but you weren't done on the Bidens. You did more research, didn't you, Miranda?

Well, absolutely. There is so much to say about the Bidens, but I will say this: that Jill Biden has achieved what we all thought was impossible. She's united the country because both left and right are dunking on her. Right, but I'm not going to forget that they covered for them.

Meanwhile, what about Margaret Brennan on Face the Nation?

Well, you know, you are going to love these and the next one as well because it's just so typical. CBS, again, they are so determined to make sure that America's 250 celebrations this year are not a happy, joyous success like Donald Trump wants them to be. Be and like the whole country wants them to be something that's unifying, it's about our history and the wonder of this country. And she and CBS and all of them left want to say that this country is so dark and awful, but she got pushback. Watch it.

I mean, she looks like she was going to cry in the clip you showed her. Watch this. What specifically makes you? Optimistic because this country at times can feel dark these days. There's a lot of darkness.

What makes you feel optimistic?

Well Ultimately, because we're in Washington, D.C. and everything revolves around politics, we have to remember that politics aren't everything. American lives continue on. Children are born, children go to school, lives are achieved, dreams are achieved. This country is a great place.

No other place in history, time, or on this planet have ever gotten to where we are today. We need to be proud of that, and we need to remember that. Is what we stay focused on. Take politics aside out of this whole conversation. Be grateful for what you've got and the opportunities that have been provided for you.

And if you do that, I don't see how you can't be optimistic about our future. I mean, that tells the whole story. That's the way she approaches her show. She's always so angry, as if she wants to start every show by saying, I cannot believe Donald Trump is president. That's what the Democrats and what their allied media partners always do.

They want us to be sad and miserable. They want to create chaos and disorder on the streets because they want Donald Trump to be annihilated at the midterm. And they're willing to cry because they can't.

Meanwhile, finally, Bill Maher making news on his podcast this time with a legend, My Way's Own, Paul Anka. Here's this give and take. Listen to what he says is happening in Canada. Canada is homogenous. Only now are they feeling it.

A city like Toronto, there's over 400,000 immigrants, and their crime rate has gone through the roof. Look, it's hilarious. I love these clips of lefties basically being red-pilled and telling the truth, things we've been yelling about for ages. I'm glad about it because, as you see with L.A. and Spencer Pratt, as you hopefully see with Steve Hilton, the most liberal enclaves are suddenly waking up to the disastrous sort of situation they have to live in thanks to long-time Democrat rule.

And that's what's happening in Canada. Thanks so much, Miranda, for coming in. Check out your podcast all the time, as well as read your columns. Appreciate it.

Miranda Devine, thanks so much. Thanks so much, Brian.

Meanwhile, next on our show, Bruce Springsteen launches into a fiery diatribe, bashing President Trump again. Jamie Lissow, his longtime rival, weighs in. More One Nation in just a moment. Bring up the music. And thank you, Daddy, for the rock.

Most of all, most of all, thanks to the bulls to bump me off.

So many of our elected leaders have failed us that this American tragedy can only be stopped by the American people, you. There is no one coming to save us. We've got to do it ourselves.

So join us and let's fight for the America that we love. Do you hear me, Washington? Are you with us? Washington! You have come here, you're the White House.

Are you with us, Washington? Wow, how patriotic. Born in the USA, singer Bruce Springsteen, who once protested mistreatment of veterans, is now practically protesting our whole country, laying it to the Trump administration and Donald Trump specifically, calling on Americans to fight back. They voted him in, by the way. Mr.

Dancing in the Dark, also announcing he will be bringing his protest back to DC in October with the musical festival just one month before the election. I never liked him. Maybe you did. But joining me now, a man I really like, who wants to talk about this, is actor and comedian Jamie Lissow. Jamie, great to see you.

Nice to see you. Are you upset that you missed the Bruce Springsteen concert? I think it's the worst new song he's ever put out. Just six minutes of talking. Can I ask, why does he go by?

He's all for the working man, but he's the boss, Brian. Why isn't he the employee? There's a problem with that. You know what I mean? The only good thing about this is I do like a good pee break during a concert.

Right. So when you hear that at a concert, does it tick you off? Even if someone's saying Donald Trump's the best, or he's not, I'm thinking to myself, why am I here? I'm here to listen to music. Yeah, it was 200 bucks probably to get in, play the hits, right?

Right? And also, what's the best? How could this ever actually enact change? Right. He said, I want to hear him at the effing White House.

What do they get? Trump's like, you know what? I decided to step down. I heard some muffled cheering. Ha!

20 miles away. Plus, he does not have very good addiction. I have no idea what his lyrics are, and he's been singing for at least 50 years. Robert De Niro called him and said, dial it back. I mean, he's a little over the top.

You've been to Costco? I've been to Costco. I got a story I think you'll like. Costco employees are accusing customers, and they're getting infuriated because they are demanding free samples. I'm disappointed in America about this.

This is where Reddit is posting. People are posting on Reddit that work at Costco. No, I will not be customizing your free sample. Can I get you just the brie cheese and no cracker? That's one of the requests.

Can I get my quesadilla crispy? Is one of the requests. I want an extra salsa on my chips. Where do these members get your nerve? This isn't Burger King.

Samples aren't have it your way. They are take what's offered and keep walking and get nothing. There's no such thing as modifications or customizations when it comes to free samples. What's your takeaway from this, from the Costco employees speaking out against the American customer? These poor sample givers, what a tough job.

I hate all these people. I will admit, when I was doing comedy and I was making not very much money, this is the key, Brian. You go to Costco, you get all the samples. Absolutely. And you buy yourself a hat and sunglasses, you go again.

You go multiple times. No changes, but you go back again. But Jamie, you're not the one that complained now. This is why I don't put it. I look at you, that's resourceful.

I look at these people as spoiled. Absolutely. Right. 100%. The only thing I don't like about the Costco sample is they go, hey, try this chocolate chip.

And you go, that's a good chocolate chip. And they go, you like that? Here's a 600-pound bag. Take away. It's too much of a leap, too much of an upsell.

One a little bit free, and then there's always a kick on the way back.

So, you like comedians? Big fan. Right, that's my transition. I'm sorry, I should have pre-thought that. Tina Faye, Tina Faye, reacts to outrage over certain.

At a nick game, it looks like she was sitting next to Timothy Chalamay, and it looks like he was spread out a little bit too much. And people were commenting that why is he spread out? And she's got to sit there stuck between two superstars. And is she, in fact, was she being abused in some way? Yeah, and they're calling it man spreading.

Right. Which is one of the reasons I got divorced. Because there was a bunch of man spreading. Right, which is. It was an other man.

Yeah, she, I'll be honest with you, those seats. Those seats on the floor, they're like two grand, maybe more. It doesn't look very comfortable. They're all cramped up. For the playoffs, they're like $200,000.

But get this, celebrities who can afford it usually get it for free. That's very true. And I'll be honest with you, not to brag, but I've gotten some really good view of games. All you have to do is just sell concessions. Right.

Sell concessions. Peanuts, popcorn. Jamie Lissow watches the games.

Now, I want you to hear what Tina Faye did talking about man spreading and how she feels about it. Timothy Shalamate was nothing but lovely, super friendly. Kylie was friendly and delightful. It wasn't until the next day that I saw all these man spreading things. But I will say, you got to remember.

So for every amount that he's sitting like this and man spreading. Yeah. I'm doing the opposite. My legs would, my, I got a big, I got a big old can. Timothy's legs cooked up front.

My big old can was taken to back. We had no beef. Do you like her explanation? I think I speak for everyone when I say we all want to see her ass now. Right, if you want to know, she's overstating it.

Yeah, right, absolutely.

So, Jamie, if I want to see you in person, like I get a chance to see you in person, and there's no charge. All floor seats, by the way. Right, absolutely. But if I wanted to see you on stage, it's going to cost me. And if I want to see you at the improv in San Jose, I'm going to have to go June 11th.

And if I want to go see you in California, it's going to be June 12th. What if I want to see you in Lake Tahoe? It's going to be the 13th. Are you going to show up at all these places? This is a lot of places.

Yeah, I mean, now that you showed everybody, I'll be there. Right, because you got it. Kind of much boxing. It's on the screen, yeah. Right.

All right. Quick question before you go. Guttfeld or The One Nation, what's your favorite show? It's a tie. It's like when my kids say, Who am I your favorite?

I go, It's an absolute tie, even though there's a clear answer. Right, absolutely. More on that later. That's it for us. Thanks you, Jamie.

You got it. That is it for us tonight. I want you to pre-order my book, and it's called Uniting the States: Six Crucial Moments that Forged the American Miracle. Jamie, don't walk across the screen. Six founders that shaped the America's Revolutionary Democracy that kind of forged it, and really.

And there it is.

Meanwhile, be sure to tune into my radio show from 9-Tune In Every Day. Jamie's been on before. Also, catch Fox and Friends in just a few hours. I'm going to jump out the shower, put on some conditioner and clothes, and be back with you. I leave with two thoughts: always stay within yourself and keep it right here all day on Fox News.

But all my cash is gone. Yeah, I got nothing to do. Tonight, I'm passed out on the floor up in the hotel bar, but it don't real American freestyle exclusively on Fox Nation. Everybody's got a plan until they get taken down.
