Hang on, what's this? Oh, he's going for a can of Pepsi, too. Incredible. What a finish! Sensational combination.
Look at the delight on his face. There's no doubt about it. It just tastes better. Match days deserve Pepsi. Food deserves Pepsi.
Grab a pack of Pepsi Zero Sugar for today's match. It's poetry in motion. We're envisioning something more like a prime minister, which is the real head of state or the real executive power in most other developed countries. I don't like using that term, you know, willy-nilly, but if we're talking about what actually is democratic and what actually is Common sense, it makes a lot more sense to have that, especially when we know that the president has had. The ability to, ever since Iraq, actually, like the ability to arrogate to itself this power that is essentially like.
Yeah, we can have a pilar paramilitary force that only responds to the President. That's fascism. Yes, thank you, Michelle Michaela Brannigan. She is the chairman of the DSA National Political Education Committee. And she said, wouldn't it be great to have a prime minister instead of a president?
We also know part of the policy is no senate. That would be interesting. And of course, many of these others say no prisons. It's going to be a great country. I just don't know what country they'd like to lead.
With me right now is Tommy Lehron, co-host of the big weekend show. It's on five to eight Saturday and Sunday. Also host of Vow Kicks Tommy Lehron is Fearless, which I know is true.
So, Tommy, is it amazing to you that the DSA is not only proud of their impact, now they're outlining their whole agenda, they also wanted to fund the military? Yeah.
Well, when you were playing that, I thought that was Kamala because it was a bunch of word salad. And speaking in a circle, I was trying to decipher what she was actually trying to say there, and it took a minute because it wasn't, it was as clear as mud, as they say. I don't really think they know what their platform is. I think they just want to watch everything burn. I don't think they love this country.
I think they would love to see this country fail.
Some of them are well-intentioned morons, I'm sure. But a lot of them just hate everything America stands for, and they want to rebuild it in the image of a third world nation. And it's up to us to prevent them from doing so. They're well on their way, though, here in New York City and elsewhere.
So do you think? that Mandami is the beginning or the end? Oh, it's the beginning. It's the beginning because it has to play out. And I'm one of those people who, maybe because I don't live here full-time, so sorry to you, but I'm one of those people that I think we have to let it play out in places like this.
Let this be the testing ground for it. Here, maybe Los Angeles, Minneapolis, let them try this experiment. Don't bail them out. And I'm sorry for everybody, all the good people that have to be here, but it's gotta play out. Because if you go in and you rescue the cities that are turning towards the socialism and the communism, then no one actually understands that it's a failure, it's a failed strategy.
So you gotta let it fail.
So, my fear is this is the beginning, and the goal is to have federal power and take these ridiculous ideas, and they're suddenly federal ideas. Um and that's what worries me.
So the twenty-somethings evidently not happy. The economy doesn't give them as much opportunity. Could you think and look at every generation? There's always some type of struggle, something going on, a war, a pandemic, a recession. Louisiana purchase caused a recession.
We shouldn't have done it. Double the size of the country. Was that an did we blame anybody for that? This irritates me to no end when I hear that young people are disenfranchised by this economy. Is that partially true?
Perhaps. Yes, things are expensive. I totally get that. Rent in New York City is incredibly expensive. But when you see those same people who say, well, I can't afford a house, and you see them buying every day an iced coffee from Starbucks, you see them taking fancy vacations where they document all their travels and their PTO.
They're going to use all their PTO. They're going to go to Greece. They're going to go to Mykonos. They're going to go to all these places. They want to go to Erewhon and buy a $12 tonic water.
They sit on their cell phone and make TikTok videos and they say, but you know what? It's not fair to me because I can't afford a house. I don't know about you, Brian, but my parents, when they were just starting out, they had nothing. They had to work hard. They had to save money.
They didn't go out to eat. They didn't splurge on vacations. They saved money so they could afford a house.
So these young people, and many of them are millennials, most of them are Gen Z's, saying, But we can't afford things. No, you can't afford everything that you want. Right. Yet. At one point, but here's also the thing: not earning it and then blaming others and taking their money.
Are you encouraged by the fact that Washington State, for example, has a wealth tax? They put on the ballot, rescind the wealth tax. There's enough signatures. Enough support.
Now they get to vote to get rid of it because they already saw that they lost. They lost Starbucks. Gone, going to Tennessee. And now others are lining up to go. They just don't want to do it.
They don't want to pay an extra nine percent because they're successful as companies and as individuals. And now they put on the ballot to rescind it. I love that. I love it. Will it be successful?
I don't know. You have to hope that the fair-minded people outnumber the people who just think, oh, yes, the rich should pay more. How many voters are out there who? Maybe don't work. Maybe work very little, maybe would love to be taken care of.
How many of those people are voting? How many of those people are encouraged to register to vote and then vote? You have to hope that the people who actually have a stake in the economy and having a good paying job from a lot of these companies that are leaving, you have to hope that they outnumber the people who want something for free. In those places, do they? I guess we'll see, but I don't have a lot of optimism.
Amazon Health AI presents painful thoughts. Why did I search the internet for answers to my cold sore problem?
Now I'm stuck down a rabbit hole filled with images of alarmingly graphic sores in various stages of ooze. I can clear my search history. But I can never unsee that. Don't go down the rabbit hole. Amazon Health AI gets you the right care fast.
Healthcare just got less painful. I wrote a little song to remind you: Choice Hotels gets you more of the experiences you value. The Cambria Hotels got it all. A rooftop ball, have a ball. Bring a date, your squad, or even your mom.

So, the president's speech last night, he mentioned when they got rid of transgenderism or trans for everybody. There's a little exchange with a doctor that took place on Capitol Hill this week. It was flat out astounding. It was Representative Mary Miller, a Republican from Illinois, asking Dr. Sam Hargood.
Hargood, you would think he's chancellor at the University of California, San Francisco, head of the medical school. Very simple medical question. Has a non-biological woman ever had a baby? A transgender person can ever had a baby? No, I would reiterate, we take care of transgender women.
This went on. I mean We take w we won't answer the question. They know the answer, though, Brian. They just don't want to upset the very, very vocal minority of people who have this as their bread and butter issue. Transgender for all, men can be women, women can be men, cut off body parts at age six.
They don't want to offend those people. They know good and well that there are two genders. They know good and well that men can't get pregnant and have babies and this, that, and the other. But they will not offend that very vocal minority, but especially in California, because a lot of their fundraising and a lot of their beneficiaries depend on that. Religious issue to them, which is LGBTQ.
That's their religion. But is it still didn't Trump give them an off-ramp by telling them we're going to war with DEI and we're pulling back from this and transgenderism? They see it as a 90-10 issue. I thought that this was going to be the green light for scientists, people of the medical profession, to take the off-ramp. No, because this for them is a religion.
They are never going to let it go. Woke never went away. It went dormant for a while, but you're going to see it come roaring back because now they're capitalizing on maybe some discontent with Trump and the economy, and they're going to bring back all the woke. It's not like they're just bringing in the socialism stuff. All the woke is going to come along with it, which makes no sense when you have someone like a Mamdani who is queer for Palestine, but also Islam rules the day.
That doesn't really make sense. It doesn't align. But for them, it aligns if it leads to power and control.
So it was interesting. Tuesday was the last semifinal game. And guess where the mayor of New York City spent it? Rikers Island, cut 34. It works.
here on Rikers, that they too are a part of New York City. The World Cup has been a magical moment for the entire city. These are New Yorkers and they will be New Yorkers when they get out of Rikers. They're New Yorkers today and I wanted to make sure that we can celebrate this moment together. Your thoughts about him doing that.
You know, I wonder about all the people that are impacted by the folks at Rikers and whatever they did. You know, the way Mom Donnie talks about them is just they just ended up there, right? They didn't do anything to end up there. They made a wrong turn. Yeah, they just were in the wrong place at the wrong time.
And oh, shucks, they ended up there. And so he must comfort them. What about the families of the people that they murdered, raped, assaulted, robbed, whatever they did? What about those families and their comfort in the World Cup, right? But this is what he does over and over.
They want these people among us. I guess at least they're honest about it. They want them all out. And he wants to close it down. He wants them all out on the street.
There's not a single person that these far-left wackos want to keep in custody. They want them all out. One just got elected on that platform.
So I don't even know what to say about that. When you talked before about where do kids go if they want to buy a house. You know when places like North Dakota is one of the fastest growing cities, especially for young people, you know why? They make it possible to afford a house. They make you get more for your money.
So you could do that. If your job is portable and you're starting in your career, there are places you can do these things.
Well, and I'm from South Dakota, and we just have a budget surplus, I think, of about $70 million.
So South Dakota can do it, North Dakota can do it, Wyoming, Montana, all these other places. A lot of other states that can do it that offer a lot. I would say my home state of Tennessee right now, Nashville. I mean, we're courting Paramount. Come to Tennessee.
Starbucks came to Tennessee. I mean, everything is moving to the places where money is treated best, and that brings opportunity.
So, we're going to watch you from five to eight on Saturday and Sunday, but first, next in 15 minutes, you're doing what? I'm going down to outnumbered. And what's going to be your lead story? Do you even know yet? Are you prepared for anything?
We are prepared for anything and everything. We might be talking about, listen, we're not supposed to say, I've been told, we're not supposed to say diarrhea. But we're going to be talking about it. That's a good tease. But we will not be talking about it using the term diarrhea, so I have to say it as many times here so that I don't say it down there.
If you wanted to hold off on that, you could have.
Well, listen, they said no using that word there.
So I figured with Brian Kilmead, it's safe. We can go, we can say the D word. Check out Tommy all weekend long and on outkick. Tommy, thanks so much. You could say whatever you want here, unlike that other show.
