Zuckerberg targets Musk's Twitter with new platform "Threads"

Vermont. Fox News Headquarters in New York City. Always seeking solutions, never sowing division. It's Brian Kilmead. Hi, everybody.

Welcome to the latest moments of the Brian Kilmey Show.

So glad you're here. I understand Carly Shimk is co-host of Oxford Friends First, he'll be here shortly. Daniel Hoffman standing by, former CIA station chief, served in Moscow, Iraq, Pakistan, and South Asia. He's gonna be with us shortly. I'm gonna tap into the what the hell is going on in Russia part of his resume.

But first, as we get ready to close out this holiday week, let's get to the big three.

Now with the stories you need to know, it's Brian's big three. Number three. The cocaine found in the White House was, it had belonged to either the president or his son. Are you willing to say that that's not the case, that they don't belong to them? I don't have a response to that because we have to be careful about the Hatch Act.

Are you insane? Careful about the hashtag Andrew Bates? You gotta be kidding. Coke, a joke. The pot thickens as the who left the bag of Coke at the White House, we now learn it was found in a.

Cubby near the White House's West Executive Entrance, not the formal West Wing lobby, which was previously reported. Ridiculous excuses and silence now surrounds the family. As more controversy about the sweetheart hunter deal. Lies in the balance. Number two.

My dad used to have an expression for a grown-up, my word. He'd say, Joey, a job's a lot more than a paycheck. It's about your dignity. About respect. About being able to look your kid in the eye and say, honey, it's going to be okay and me.

That's Bidenomics. Bidenomics. Joe says the economy is something to run on, not from. Big mistake as he sends his Treasury Secretary to China to rekindle our economic friendship. Wrong message, wrong messenger.

Number one. We are launching Threads, an open and friendly public space for conversations. I am looking forward to the fun journey ahead. Really? Zuck versus Musk.

The MetaMan suddenly decides he wants to take down Twitter with his new site, Threads. The danger for Elon is real, but it's worse for us. A more imperfect company. Yes, it is good, but it is at least free. All right, meanwhile, get the podcast, BrianKillmeatShow.com.

Meanwhile, let's bring in Daniel Hoffman. Daniel, it was impossible not to watch what's happening in Russia and amazed by the fact that even the most knowledgeable Russian experts don't know exactly what's happening, but I was able to see those fighter jets harass our predator drones en route to Syria. No threat to them, but it's just disrespect to us. What is Russia up to, Dan? Yeah, well, good to be with you, Brian, and happy Friday to everybody.

Look, Vladimir Putin is trying to navigate a very challenging domestic political landscape after P. Gorgian's failed mutiny. And what he's trying to demonstrate to his own people is that Russia can go toe to toe with the world's superpower. And this is one way to do it. He's going to pick places and times and situations where it's to Russia's advantage, asymmetric warfare.

In this case, Russian fighter aircraft going up against unarmed drones. And he's just trying to show that he can take a shot at the United States and he'll play it out as making us look weak.

Now, from our side, from the Pentagon side, there are rules of engagement. uh to respond appropriately and proportionally. And I'm quite sure that we've had some background Discussions with the Russians, with Russian counterparts from our Department of Defense, on just sort of how. How dangerous this is. It's really a situation which could lead to miscalculation.

Right. But at one point, do we stand up for ourselves? Remember, we did nothing when our drone was taken out, millions of dollars. And that happened just on their belligerence. That was international skies.

And now, two days in a row doing this, as we're en route to nothing to do with Russia, going after terrorists, ISIS terrorists in Syria. Here is Brigadier General Ryder. Tell me if you like this posture, cut 15, cut 25. Three Russian fighter jets began harassing those drones, using things like parachute flares to drop in front of them as well as one aircraft engaging its afterburner. Clearly meant to harass.

And clearly, unprofessional and unsafe behavior on the part of the Russians. You've heard us say before that our focus in Syria is purely on the defeat ISIS mission, and so that will continue to be our focus. Like AFSENT, we call on the Russian forces to cease this type of reckless behavior and to behave like professional airmen.

So, how about you think the Russians will do that now, act more professional? No. And this situation, similar to what Iran is doing in the Gulf, Uh it's Clearly, a lack of deterrence. Deterrence means that you deter your adversary from doing things that would harm you because they know that it would come back to harm them even worse. And that's where we've failed.

If you don't do anything about them taking down our drone in the Black Sea, they're going to continue to take shots at our drones in the Middle East. They don't care about the counter-ISIS mission, even though. rationally speaking, that's something that we should be working on together. But that doesn't matter to Vladimir Putin. He's just going to keep probing and keep probing until we push back.

Should we push back if it happens again today? Yeah, I'm sure the military will push back. I think, again, we need to warn the Russians that we're going to push back. Remember years ago when in the Trump administration, a few hundred Wagner mercenaries were proceeding to target our troops in Darazor, Syria, and our troops called in air support. We count we told the Russians what we were going to do.

Before we did it, and the Russian military had nothing to say. And so, our air support, close air support, which by the way, Ukraine doesn't have, and that's why their own counteroffensive is slower. But our close air support took out those Wagner mercenaries. That's what we do. And the Russian military left them out there hanging out to dry.

So we certainly have the capability. We don't want to escalate this, but at the same time, we've got to stand up for ourselves. Today. I would hope it will be today. Yesterday, Brian.

How about two weeks ago? And now that we could put up fighter jets, but wouldn't that defeat the purpose of a unsurveillable Predator drone? If you put up fighter jets with it, then suddenly they know what's coming. It it could degrade our our our primary mission, which is to find, fix and finish terrorists. But at the same time, we may have to do that in order to keep the drones in the air.

So, look, this one, I mean, I'm sure we're going to try to solve it diplomatically, but. Our enemies at this point, specifically Russia, China, China's doing this all over the world against us, not always militarily, but with their ubiquitous espionage. And Iran, they're all targeting us. And again, this is a question of whether we are demonstrating that we can deliver the kind of deterrence that it takes to operate in this very dangerous world. And it's more dangerous because Vladimir Putin is weaker today than he's ever been.

And that means he's going to take chances like this. Right. And can you imagine what he will do if you shoot down one of his jets? And now he's lost 50% of his fighting force, they estimate UK estimates, fighting in Ukraine, could not even defend his own capital. And then his fighter jets get taken out by one of ours.

What is he going to do? That's a good question. And if you were sitting in the White House, I'm sure you'd be game planning this with the intelligence community and the U. S. Department of Defense and the State Department.

I'm quite sure that there are meetings going on right now in the National Security Council about how to manage this extraordinarily tricky challenge.

So what? That's what Vladimir Putin wants.

So now he's got to worry about his own security. What about the mystery behind where Peshogian is, the founder and leader of Wagner, not in Belarus at a base that was given to him, evidently in St. Petersburg? Here's Alexander Lushenko, the president of Belarus, cut 23. In terms of Evgeny Progoshen, he is in St.

Petersburg. Or maybe this morning he would travel to Moscow or elsewhere. But he's not on the territory of Belarus now. The news is making him out more and more to be this evil terrorist in Moscow, in Russia.

So what what is the f what is his fate? Why does he feel he can go back to Russia and not get an axe in his head?

Well, he still may get an axe in his head at some point. Vladimir Putin is very well aware that there's a lot of support for Prigorzhin. Not obviously just among the Wagner mercenaries he once led, but also the Russian military. Remember that Wagner forces took over the Rostov military district just over the border of Ukraine, which is responsible for Russia's military operations in Ukraine. They did that without firing a shot.

So Vladimir Putin would be risking a lot if he were to target Prigorjin with some sort of attack of the sort he mounted against Navalny, for example, the banned chemical nerve agent Novichuk.

So he's got to hold his fire for the moment. But the Russian state-controlled Orwellian media is denigrating Prigorjin, and that's kind of a precursor to whatever. Putin is going to do with him. But I've been watching the the Russian state TV. They've been, you know, they've raided his facilities.

They found wigs that he used and gold bullion. And they're trying to denigrate him with his own followers and the population writ large so that when Putin does take action, uh that Putin won't suffer any Any consequences among the Russian military he needs so desperately right now. But you know what, Dan Hoffman, our guest, Dan, the CIA guy. Dan, what I find uh interesting is Pers Sergeyan does not feel like he's being threatened. Why would he go back to St.

Petersburg if he felt like his life was in danger? Right. He's a populist leader. He never served in the military or in Russian intelligence. He was a hot dog salesman.

So there are limits to what this guy can do. And he was very ineffective ultimately at his primary mission, which was to mutiny and overthrow Minister of Defense Shoigu and the Army Chief Staff Duras and while Putin wasn't going to relieve them of their official duties because he needs them. He relies on them. They're Putin's closest allies. But right now, Prigozhin feels like he can hang in Russia.

He doesn't have a lot of other choices. You know, wherever Belarus is not safe for him. And he knows that he's incurred Vladimir Putin's wrath. You know, I watched an interview of Vladimir Putin with a super obsequious journalist years ago, and the journalist asked Putin about what, you know, Putin seemed to be such a forgiving person. Was there anything Putin couldn't forgive?

And Putin said, which means treachery.

So Prigorjan's on the short list of guys Putin's gonna whack at some point. And Prigorjin's only hope is to be strong enough. With enough populist support that Putin just can't do it. And that maybe someday, somehow, someone will take over. after Putin and maybe ally himself with Prigozhin.

That's the kind of situation we're in. It is extraordinarily precarious, and there's got to be a lot of concern about Russia's nuclear arsenal. Who's got control of it? And what would happen if Wagner mercenaries, if they were to take over Rostov so easily, what if they took over a nuclear site? What happened then?

So there are a lot of concerns here. Things are kind of dark right now in Russia. Right. What do you hear about the offensive, the Ukrainian offensive? And are you in support of us giving cluster bombs to the Ukrainians?

It looks like we're going to do it. 120 countries banned it. Many of our NATO allies don't want us to do this.

So according to General Keene is the guy I always turn to, the Institute for Study of War. And what the ISW is saying is that Ukraine is kind of holding back on mounting an intense counteroffensive right now. They're probing Russia and they are searching for spots that they can later target with more forces. But look. The cluster of munitions, I would have been in favor of giving Ukraine the long-range artillery, attack them.

The F-16s, the close air support that they so desperately need. And the Abrams tanks. Those are the things they need. And the cluster munitions, maybe there's some value there, but There's a lot of negatives associated with doing that. And we just haven't given Ukraine what they needed.

When they needed it, fast enough. Putin is the only success Vladimir Putin has, the only one, is the rhetorical nuclear brinkmanship. Every time he talks about nuclear war and Armageddon, the Biden administration doesn't give Ukraine what they need. Back in the day, it was Patriot missiles and javelins and javelin anti-tank weapons, and now it's the things that I mentioned: the Abrams tanks, the TACMs, and the F-16s. And that to me is a major part of the story.

And Ukrainians I talk to are thankful for everything the United States has done, but frustrated that we haven't quite done enough fast enough. And God, you know, it's Zelensky who's awakened to NATO from their post-Cold War slumber. Ukraine's done more than any country ever has done to defend, counter, and deter Russia. That's deterrence, by the way. When you kill 200,000 Russians or 200,000 Russian casualties, That's going to deter the Russians from mounting further operations in Eastern Europe and the Baltic.

Are you worried about the Zaporizha nuclear facility? Yes. I am worried about it. The Ukrainian head of military intelligence, Boudanov, said that the Russians had put down explosives to bomb it. that's a major concern that that they would That they would consider mounting some sort of an operation like that and maybe false flag it and try to make it look like somebody else did it.

And that would have repercussions, environmental repercussions on Ukraine and Europe writ large, way beyond what happened at Chernobyl.

So these are some of the things that a war like this, Russia's unprovoked brutal war of aggression, has caused millions of Ukrainians to flee their country. It's wrecked the world economy, export of grain from Ukraine, and it's got this risk of nuclear disaster. What more could you ask for, right? Yeah, and by the way, Zelensky is going to visit Erdogan in Turkey. But a quick thing on this actual offensive itself.

Some say Bakhmut is going to go back to Ukrainian hands and that's going to have a chance to encircle what's left of the Russian troops. Would that be something advantageous towards this successful counterinsurgency? Yeah, it could. Bakhmut has really been Ukraine's courageous stand. And remember, when the Biden administration was telling Zelensky that Ukraine could withdraw and there would be no negative impact on Ukraine's military strategy, Zelensky said, No, I think we need to stay and fight.

And they killed 20,000 Wagner mercenaries. That was the final nail in the coffin, which drove a wedge between Pety Gorzhin and the Minister of Defense Shoygu, because for months Petigorghin was ripping on Shoigu and saying that the Russian army wasn't giving the Wagner mercenaries the supplies, the ammunition that they needed to fight. And that was what was the precursor to the failed mutiny that has caused Putin to be in such a weakened state. Zelensky realized the strategic value of Bakhmut. I'm not saying it's as valuable as Stalingrad was, but when the history of this war is written, there will be a lot written about Bakhmut and Zelensky and the Ukrainian courageous military standing up to fight when it mattered most.

And how about when Moscow is under attack? Uh v Vladimir Putin left. Mr. Tough Guy, Mr. Judo Black Belt.

I'll fight to the end. Oh, excuse me, they're getting close. I have to leave now. Think about that in his image. Yeah, and Zelensky's on the front lines.

Whether it was Bucha, the site of that brutal massacre that the Russians inflicted on Ukrainian civilians, Ukraine, remember Zelensky's first words of the war: I don't need aircraft. The United States offered him an exfiltration on aircraft. I don't need aircraft. I need ammunition. The fight is here.

God bless him. You know, he turned out to be a great leader, and I think much to the surprise of Vladimir Putin, massive intelligence failure for Putin, who underestimated Ukraine's will and capacity to fight and Zelensky's capacity to lead the greatest wartime effort since World War II. Go get him, Dan Hoffman. Thanks so much for the perspective. Dan Hoffman, thank you.

Your call's next. Brian Killmee Cho.

So glad you're here. 1-866-408-7669. From the Fox News Podcasts Network. I'm Ben Dominich, Fox News contributor and editor of the Transom.com daily newsletter, and I'm inviting you to join a conversation every week. It's the Ben Dominich Podcast.

Subscribe and listen now by going to FoxNewsPodcasts.com. He's so busy, he'll make your head spin. It's Brian Killmead. We are launching Threads, an open and friendly public space for conversations. I am looking forward to the fun journey ahead to turn this into the the kind of big and friendly community that I think we all want to see in the world.

Really? I want to see a friendly community on social media. Since when? It will never be friendly as long as people give opinions and give their thoughts. Have you met people?

Number two, threads is only because Elon Musk is doing it and because it is a free platform. And for the most part, if you don't have violence or something obscene to say, what you put post stays. And what you've posted in the past will be exposed. Threads will be secret. They're already blocking people.

So if you come out and say the vaccine doesn't work, That ivermectin's effective. Are you suspended? Are you shadow banned? I tell you what, on E with Elon Musk Twitter, you're not. We're going to go back to the future if threads catches on.

I know they got 30 million users because if you're on Instagram, you immediately become a user by clicking a box.

So that's a lot different than asking someone to go to the app store and find out what everything's about and fill out who's when and where. With Twitter, you're on already. But be smart about it. Musk has to win this battle. I'll have more of that with Carly Shimpkis in a moment.

We're also going to talk about a marriage that I hope never happens in a relationship that is not true. Information you want, truth you demand. This is the Brian Kill Me Show. Look, I don't blame businesses for wanting things to be cleaned up for the first opportunity to have legitimate foot traffic in and out of their stores that isn't people coming in there to steal things. I don't blame them for wanting that and demanding that of the city.

The question is: you put all this effort in for a baseball game. Can we keep it that way? And clearly, what the last couple weeks has shown is that they can, if they want to, find the political will to do these things.

So, if they can do it for a baseball game, can you do it for our economy? Please.

So that was Brandy Krause. Host of the Undivided Pod Seattle, the host of the Undivided podcast, talking about Seattle cleaning up its city for the All-Star game. We know Seattle's an absolute mess, but they say it's no problem. It's a huge problem, and they know the world will be watching. Carly, what was your number one?

Carly Shimkis is here, ladies and gentlemen. Hi. Yes, and you can see we're on Fox Nation. Oh, good. Yes.

You just realize that? Um, no, I knew that, but I wanted to sound excited.

Okay, good. You love to stream as opposed to cable. What was the big difference? What's the big difference? Big difference?

I like both. I don't take sides. You don't take sides. I am a neutral arbiter in this. What about Carl Yan and Antenna, a broadcast over the bunny ears?

Yes. I think it's cute. It's a little throwback. You don't care. You're just going to perform the same way.

Yes, exactly. People on their phones listening to you. Morse code. No, any form of communication. If you're tapping out Carly's comments right now, she's also happy.

So it is pretty true. I didn't think about the all-star game, but they got to go clean up these cities. And if you are that embarrassed by it, why don't you clean it up every day? That is the key question. And so that you, you're right.

Brandy Cruz, she was on the end of the host of the Undivided podcast, was on Fox and Friends First. Great guest, by the way, very insightful, very fair in her commentary. And she was telling me that the area around Marlins Stadium, is that the Seattle Marlins? Yeah. Mariners.

Mariners. I knew it started with an N. Yep. Is one of the worst areas of Seattle. It's just where all of these homeless encampments are, and they've let it fester.

And apparently, the mayor has been doing.

some sweeps of these homeless encampments. But It has Expedited exponentially because this game is next week. And we've seen this happen in liberal cities before. If you remember, Los Angeles, they cleaned out all the homeless people just in time for the Oscars.

So they're rich and famous. And all the cameras are there and they want their city to look great. But it's so clearly political. They claim to care about homeless people up until an event that spotlights their city and then they say, the heck with them, we want the money, we want the revenue, we want the income from the tourists. And they clearly don't care about the taxpayers who have been asking them for years to work on this issue.

And they turn a blind eye to it to appease the homeless activists. Not only that, you're not allowed to touch them, so cops can't even enforce the hell that breaks out in their own mini society. But where do you put them? The four seasons?

Well, they don't just disappear. No, and that's really one of the key questions when it comes to the homeless issue: is there an actual solution to this problem? Because we have an incredible social safety net in our country.

So if you need Help, you can get it.

So that means that if you're homeless and on the street, it's typically by choice. You're either a drug addict or you have some mental issues. And you know, you talk to Dr. Drew about that because he's an expert on it. Drew studied it from Los Angeles, spent a bulk of his time in San Francisco, most of his mental illness.

These aren't people that just say, oh, those rents are too high. I'm better off in a pup tent. That's not the case. That's not the case. So let's look back in our lives as we change gears and think about all the times that cocaine has been found in the White House.

All right, what's the first time?

Okay, wait a second.

Okay, what about the mm. I think the first time I can remember cocaine in the White House has been this last year. And you are a historian. Yeah, I mean, it's never happened before. I'm a history enthusiast.

Yes, exactly. No, I would give you the historian title.

Well, that's very nice of you. I should change my business card for enthusiastic. I'm just enthusiastic about a lot of things. The White House, Andrew Bates, Deputy Press Secretary on Air Force One, was asked about Donald Trump saying we know it's Joe and Hunter's cocaine, and where it's located now is a place you need a pass to get to. Here's what he said, Cut Eleven.

Former President Trump has made some pretty wild posts recently on social media. One of them was that the cocaine found in the White House was it had belonged to either the President or his son. Are you willing to say that that's not the case, that they don't belong to them? I don't have a response to that because we have to be careful about the Hatch Act. What I will say is that I have noticed there does seem to be some increasing frustration.

coming from that corner in general. And I think it is probably rooted in the contrast between their substantive policy records. Have you ever heard the Hatch Act being brought up more than with this administration? It's unbelievable.

So, what the Hatch Act is. Can I just say the Hatch Act is if cocaine's found in the White House, don't comment on it?

So, this is exactly why they came up with Senator Orrin Hatch's the answer is it's such an easy layup because Trump's tweet was what Trump tweeted. The president does Coke. Yeah, he accused Biden of doing Coke.

So, you say that's not, that's absolutely false, and you can, it's politics, you can criticize the former president's tweet and move on. To use the Hatch Act is, I don't know if he's just inexperienced or didn't know how to handle it because you're talking about somebody that's right, but it's not a Hatch Act violation. It's a news story that he's responding to, which is his job. Carly, maybe he can't deny that one of the Bidens has that cocaine. I mean, that's basically it.

So, basically, the new report says cocaine was found in a cubby right near the White House's West executive. Of entrance, not the formal West Wing lobby that some tourists could get to. Who got blamed for the cocaine by the library? It wasn't by the library and not by an area in which the tourists get to.

Now, if you are a White House friend and your friend works at the White House, they could have brought you through, and it could be that person's cocaine. But for the general public that says, I'm here for the White House tour, I'm from Montana, and this is my family. I have Cody and Brock, and this is my first wife, my second wife. I like to go on a tour, and then we're going to go to the Smithsonian, then we're going to go see the Washington Monument. If it's one of those, Can't get in there.

Can't get in there. Can't get in there. I wonder if you just did describe a family perfectly and they're listening right now and they're like, whoa. Call in 1-866-408. Exactly.

Oh, by the way, a great time to walk to the Washington Monument. You will be 100 pounds thin by the time you get there.

So the cocaine was found at an entrance between the foyer and the lower lobby. The source said the entrance is right near the vehicles, like the Vice President's limo or SUV. It is one of the uh it is one floor below the main West Wing offices on the same floor.

Okay. And the reason why this guy Gates didn't comment? Yeah, it's an imscage. Yeah, and is because it could be true. It could be Hunters.

And does he want to be caught saying it is not Hunter Biden?

Okay. Yeah, so a few things on this story that is j uh it's no small thing that cocaine was found at the White House. It'll blow up. By the way, it'll be bl it'll blow up his whole Plei deal. If it's tr if it ends up being hunters, but if it is, will we ever find out?

That's one question. But let me just say, one of the things that is confusing to me is that the story has changed now three times as to where the cocaine was found. Initially, I listened to the call, the Daily Mail published it. The initial 911 call, the dispatcher said that there was a white substance that was found in the library, which is still a part of the White House tours, but that's in the East Wing, a couple floors down from where the first family lives. Then the Secret Service said, oh, no, no, no, actually it was in the West Wing, all the way on the other side of the White House.

And now we're hearing, oh, wait, no, never mind. It was found near the situation room, which is in a different location.

So you would think that there would be a flurry of activity around the suspicious white bag. I would think so. And we would know definitively where it was found.

So the fact that the story changed is interesting. The other thing that I think is notable is that. That this investigator spoke to Politico and is already hedging on if we'll ever learn whose cocaine this actually was. Daniel Lippmann had that. Yeah, they said, listen, it's going to be very difficult to discover who belonged to this bag because, you know, there's not a whole lot of cameras in this area.

If that is true, then there is a serious lapse in security in the White House that needs to be. Immediately addressed. The other possible theory is that they already know who it belongs to and they just don't want to admit it. And I'm not insinuating that it is definitely Hunter Biden and saying that. The other possibility is that it's just somebody else's, and it becomes a total political headache for the Biden administration to then prosecute this guy when.

President Biden's son is a former drug addict who he says he's proud of. Wow, it is complicated, but if the Secret Service knows. Do you think they're going to be deposed like The Secret Service that worked for Donald Trump? That evidently has been called in to testify against him about what they knew at Mar-a-Lago. I know.

And this is one key. I know they say it's law enforcement, but if you're going to be with someone 24/7, And let's say they have a fight with their spouse. And let's say their kid comes out and he came in a little tipsy, got away with drunk driving the night before.

So the other time the young girl tends to answer the mom back.

So, you have to feel comfortable with that family, and that family has to feel comfortable with you to work security. That's not going to end up in some book somewhere, it's not going to end up in some column somewhere.

So, you're saying that the Secret Service detail who is assigned to a family gets to become a part of the family. I don't know enough about the Secret Service to know if that's true or not. These are also law enforcement protests.

Well, I just feel they've been flipped with the Trump. I never heard of a Secret Service testifying against the people they're guarding. Lady Bird Johnson didn't have her Secret Service. Didn't the Secret Service protect Hunter Biden over the gun thing? Yeah.

So, yeah, I don't know. Called in when he wasn't even, his dad wasn't even in office because the wife at the or the former wife or the girlfriend both. Former wife said he thought he was gonna hurt himself, so she took the gun and threw it to a dumpster across the street.

Well, all I know is that congressional Republicans think that something's up because James Comer was like, I'd like to talk to these Secret Service agents to get some more information on this story. Because I think a lot of people find it very hard to believe that they will not be able to discover who this person is. Who knows? Maybe tomorrow they'll give a name. And they did DNA and fingerprint testing.

But even though they were doing that testing, they were still saying. Might come up empty, said Right.

So it's just DNA is like flipping a corner here. Yeah. Really is not definitive. Everybody says, oh, it's just his DNA. We can't prove it.

Here's Brett Tolman last night, CUD 13. He is a law enforcement expert and a former U.S. attorney. The requirements that they're putting on him are that he's not supposed to do drugs and he's not supposed to possess a firearm.

Well, that's easy enough. Just give him a felony and let him suffer the consequences like everybody else for his felonious activities. This bag of cocaine, if it has any connection. Any connection whatsoever to Hunter, it is a game changer. The federal drug laws are very tough, even on small amounts.

Five grams of a cocaine base can get you a mandatory minimum of five years in federal prison. It will all depend on what the prosecutors want to do, but this is a very treacherous territory for Hunter Biden. Final thought?

Well, I would just say that if it is in fact his, then the judge needs to take this into deep consideration. Who, by the way, is a Trump appointee? And some I know the Wall Street Journal has been speaking out saying that he sh this judge should not accept this plea deal. Yes. You know, and that is still a possibility.

He goes to court in July. Carl Shimpkins is here when we come back. The relationship, I hope, will never happen, but might have started already. That's true when we return.

Okay. Okay, not with me. No. Oh, okay, got it. Want even more Brian?

So all I can say is a vote for me is a vote for four more years of holding fascism at bay. Or as long as this ticker keeps pumping a minimal amount of blood for consciousness, and if you can't tell this is an AI-generated voice, then lots of luck in your senior year. Whatever the f that means.

So what was that, Alison, Eric? What'd you what'd you find? That was the daily show. They gave us AI generated Joe Biden. Do was it really or was it just a guy just going off?

No, that was AI generated. Get out of here. Yeah. On the daily show. Yeah.

And what do you think the daily what do you think the mission was? Did they say make a mockery of Joe Bob make him just to make a funny campaign ad. I think they probably trained it on his voice and then wrote the script. What do you think, Carl? Wow.

I was trying to figure out what the heck that was in real time. I was like, this is too good. It sounds like a young Joe Biden. Yeah. I was like, are they just like splicing his words together and trying to seamlessly make him sound like he's saying something he's not?

That is a news story in and of itself because. I was like, maybe he just did something kinda funny. And it was AI? I am blown away. I I I find it hard to believe that Daily Show didn't write that.

No, they wrote it, but they had a guy j and guy, AI do the voice. Oh, AI did the voice. But they wrote it. Yes, they probably. See, that's key, Eric, because the AI should be able to write that, too.

It could in theory. I mean, I'm sure they asked it to write something, but that Just the way it's written strikes me as very daily show. Right. And was to mock him, to mock him like that is everything we know that they don't cover in other channels? Like, do you know what TNN ended today?

They point it out, they go, yeah, this is the cocaine story.

Well, let's just point out other problems with drugs. Snoop Dogg on Jimmy Campbell, talking about what he did. Willie Nelson. Oh my gosh, talk about carrying the lead. Are you kidding me?

I mean, they just wanted to make it no big deal. Yeah. Um That soundbite was funny, but also like terrifying. Because I thought it was Joe Biden. All right, now let me tell you something really terrifying.

Kim Kardashian, an attractive woman. And uh should be lauded for her entrepreneurial uh skills. Could be out to destroy an American icon. Unintentionally. Turns out Tom Brady and Kim Kardashian were super flirty with each other on the Hamptons party that nobody I know was invited to.

By. This guy, I think it's Mike Rubin. He's the Fanatic CEO.

So he and Kardashian, Tom Brady and Kardashian, he's 45. She's 42. He is retired. Evidently, they've been together in other places. Could this be real?

I think it could be. They were seen together on the beach. You're not just going to the beach with a friend. Right. Unless you need a ride.

That's kind of like a beginning of the date thing. Go to the beach during the day? Yeah. Like, I want to get to know a long walk on the beach. That's a date.

Yeah. That's true. And what is the new thing, just lunch? What's just lunch? Is it just lunch, this new dating thing?

I don't think it's that new. Is that new? See, I'm not cool anymore. I have to check with our summer associates all the time to see if I know like a little bit of a drink. How did they start dating again if you ever wanted to?

No, just like, so is this still cool? And they're like, uh, kinda. Like, whatever it may be.

So, Tom Brady. Is going to be with a woman that destroys Kanye West, is out of his mind. Why are you blaming Kim Kardashian on that? I mean, it doesn't help. The family, it doesn't work.

Who was she first married to? Kim Kardashian. Chris Humphries. Chris Humphries. Yeah.

Ruined out of basketball. Why is that Kim Kardashian's fault? You have Kanye West. She's also ruined some other people along the way. Didn't she date some other people?

Why are you trying to blame her? I didn't agree with you, Credit. She dated Reggie Bush. As well, not in football. He's doing great.

He's an announcer. Wait, this is unbelievable. You're spinning this on Kim Kardashian, and now you think that she's going to ruin Tom Brady? Yes. These men should be like kissing the ground she walks on.

That's the problem. That's objective. Right. And they lose all their self-esteem and self-worth. Oh my gosh.

We can't end on this negative note. Carly Seal. This is really nice.

Okay, bye. Mm-hmm. From the Fox News Radio Studios in Midtown Manhattan, it's the fastest-growing radio talk show. Brian Killmead. Hi everyone, thanks so much for being here and being with me all week long.

This hour going to be drawn by Shannon Bream and our retired general Philip Breedlove, former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO and distinguished professor at the Sam Nunn School of International Affairs over at Georgia Tech. We have a lot to discuss today. If you're looking for the president of the United States, let me see. It's a weekend. Let me see the calendar.

Oh, we hope it. That's where you want the president. He's going to be going over there, and we wish him all the luck in the world. And I think there's going to be about 12 candidates in New Hampshire, South Carolina, or Iowa this weekend on the right. But nobody's earned more money.

No one's raised more money than the frontrunner, Donald Trump, $35 million, $20 million for the many people thought the man who could unseat Donald Trump for the nomination, and that is Ron DeSantis. That's just in six weeks.

So let's get to the big three.

Now, with the stories you need to know, it's Brian's big three. Number three. The cocaine found in the White House had belonged to either the president or his son. Are you willing to say that that's not the case, that they don't belong to them? I don't have a response to that because we have to be careful about the Hatch Act.

Yes, be careful of the Hatch Act. Don't say it's not the president's 80-year-old, the 80-year-old president's cocaine. We don't want to violate the Hatch Act. Coca joke, the plot thickened as who left a bag of Coke at the White House. We now learn it was found in a cubby near the White House's West executive entrance, not the formal West Wing lobby, as was previously reported.

Ridiculous excuses and silence now surrounds the family. The most controversy about the sweetheart, more controversy about the sweetheart deal Hunter received is revealed. Number two. My dad used to have an expression for grown-up. My word.

He said, Joey, a job's about a lot more than the paycheck. It's about your Dignity. It's about respect. About being able to look your kid in the eye and say, honey, it's going to be okay and mean it. That's by domics.

Right, exactly. And then he told that story about watching two gay men walk down the street in 1950 and kiss. I don't think any of this stuff is true. Bidenomics, Joe says his testimony is something his economy is something to run on, not from. Many think that's a mistake.

Treasury Secretary is in China to rekindle our economic friendship. They did not deserve this rekindling. They are belligerent to us in every way. It's time the president realized Republicans and Democrats agree on this. Number We are launching Threads, an open and friendly public space for conversations.

I am looking forward to the fun journey ahead. Really? Mark Zuckerberg, Zuck first Musk. The meta-man suddenly realizes he wants to take down Twitter with his new site, Threads. The danger for Elon is real, but is worse for us.

As imperfect as Twitter is, I love the fact that we can know for sure we're not being manipulated by outside forces, which a law now should be preventing, in theory. Let's bring a retired general Philip Relove. General, welcome back. Hey, good to talk to you, Brian. General, there was probably the most controversial thing out there today.

One hundred and twenty countries voted to say, I don't want to use cluster bombs anymore in war. They detonate late and they're dangerous after conflicts often. We have not signed on to that ban, and we're going to be giving them to Ukraine in order to. Continue their counter-offensive against Russia. Are you for that?

Well a little bit of background before I tell you that I'm okay with it. We have not signed on because that sort of weapon is extremely critical to the war plans and our defense in Korea. and being able to blunt a North Korean push before it gets south of Seoul.

So we have long avoided signing up. The second thing is the ban is actually there for a good reason because for many decades, the bombs that were being used were incredibly unreliable, and there would be lots of duds and it's a a a problem to work with the ground after you've dropped this kind of weapon. The new stuff that we use now has an extremely high, greater than ninety nine percent, I believe. You need to check that. reliability rate.

So we have come a long way.

So what I would guess I would say is that you know that Russia is using this type of equipment. Russia has mined huge swaths Of Ukraine, some of it just to keep Ukraine from being able to farm the fields, nothing to do with military. And so these weapons are already on the battlefield in Ukraine, and therefore I am not opposed to this decision.

So, all right.

So, what about the F-1516s? At this point, knowing what you know about the counteroffensive, do you think we have to give it to them? And are you for giving General Breed Love? Are you for giving them the ATAC'ems, the long-range missiles?

So let me answer the second one. Uh first, yes. We should have done it a long time ago. You know and I know that you can't fight a war when you give the enemy sanctuary. and we have given, we have been a part of enforcing sanctuary for Russia.

We forbid Ukraine from using long range weapons that we give them to strike into Russia. And so Russia enjoys sanctuary to the north in Belarus. to the east and southeast in Russia, in the Ukraine's Crimea and the Black Sea. These are all essentially sanctuary because we forbid Ukraine from using the kit that we give them. We need to hold Crimea at risk.

And the way to do that is with long range, precise strike. And I am for, I have been for and many of us have been calling for ATACOMs for Ukraine for a long time. When we can hold Crimea at risk with persistent pervasive prec precise fires this will change the nature of the battlefield.

So eight tactics, easy. F-16s and F-15s, these are a long-term plan. They are going to have nothing to do with this counteroffensive. they won't be in the force in time. This is an investment in Ukraine next year and years after that in the defense of their nation, which they're going to need.

All right, I agree. Don't you think this is a window of opportunity after what we saw two weeks ago with the chaos and the Wagner group moving on to Moscow? Are we missing that window?

Well We are We're missing lots of windows, Brian. I don't understand sometimes our philosophy of what we're doing with Ukraine. You know that we talk about all the things we've given them, like M1 Abrams. Are there any M one Abrams on the battlefield yet? The answer is no.

We talk about we've given them F sixteen, and yet we haven't even released the policy decision to allow training to occur. The Europeans are ready and waiting for us to release the policy decision for them to start the training, even just the ground training. We can't get it started because it's held up in policy decisions in Washington, DC. And uh how many US patriots are on the ground in um in Ukraine. The NATO allies have sent patriots, but You can't tell me very many U.

S. patriots that have made it yet.

So a lot of these things that we need to give them, we haven't.

Some of these things, which we say we have given them, are all held up and delayed and not affecting the battlefield, yet we sort of celebrate that we've got it done. Unbelievable. And guys like you have to speak out. It's the only thing because you're nonpolitical and you know the military aspect and not giving enough to win. And Zelensky can't speak out because if he alienates this administration, He has there is no fallback plan.

So he's got to be happy with what he gets. We have to be fast. Thankful for what the United States is doing. We cannot say we're not doing anything. But the real question is, Are we giving them what they need to win?

Or are we giving them just enough so that they don't lose? Many of the most offensive things that we talk about, and some that like the F-16 and others, that we say, quote unquote, we've made that decision, we've given them that. None of them are having an effect on the battlefield. We celebrate the decision, and I think we're celebrating the wrong moment. We should be celebrating when these systems like ATACM's F-16s Patriots are actually on the battlefield doing their job.

That's when we should celebrate. I hear you.

So, General, I want you to hear: I think you know what's going on with the fighter jets in Syria. They're going after our predator drones with their fighter jets. We know what they happened and took one down by knocking the propeller.

So, over the last two days, the Russians have been doing this. And this is the response from the Pentagon Press Secretary, Brigadier General Ryder, Cut 25. Three Russian fighter jets began harassing those drones, using things like parachute flares to drop in front of them, as well as. One aircraft engaging its afterburner. Clearly meant to harass, and clearly unprofessional and unsafe behavior on the part of the Russians.

And he's calling for it to stop. I know spokespeople don't set policy, but is that the tone you're comfortable with?

Well, Brian. No, it's not. And here's the question. Are we surprised No, no, I'm not surprised they're doing this in Syria. They did it in the Black Sea, just like you talked about.

They dinged one of our aircraft that then had to be scuttled after it hit the water. And what did we do?

Well, what we did was we had a strongly worded message. And then we backed up all around the Black Sea. We moved the airspace away from Russia. International Airspace. to the Russians in order to solve the problem.

So what is the lesson that the Russians learned? they learned that, one, they can get away with knocking down American unarmed or unmanned aircraft. And two, they also learned that if they do that, they gain airspace and ground space and so forth because we will simply move further away from them to avoid conflict. We we should, the next step, we should give them we should give them an escort, don't you think?

Well I think the first thing we need to do is remind the whole world what international airspace and international water space is. We used to do a lot more of what we call FON, freedom of navigation. These are exercises both in the air and on the sea, and we need to go out and exercise freedom of navigation in the Black Sea and make sure that Russia understands that we are going to operate freely in international airspace. And we have not done that. And so yes, Brian, there we need to make sure that we exercise these freedoms We don't cede airspace and if necessary, we enforce The exercising of these freedoms.

All right, where is the head of the Wagner Group, Yevgeny Prekozhin? Where is he now? Is it true that he was actually in St. Petersburg yesterday? And are you surprised he's still alive?

Well Uh I don't know where he is. I I I have the same reporting you do. In order to be able to speak freely, I don't take classified briefings these days. I get my intel from people on the ground in Europe. And it's pretty sure that he's not in Belarus.

He's somewhere in Russia. And for him to do that, there has to have been an accommodation made. Again, I'm not terribly surprised about this. Brian, you saw that right after. he turned the convoy around and went south.

Within hours, Lavrov was up making a speech, and he actually said, you know, that the Wagner Group is actually very useful and quote unquote, doing some very good work in North Africa. We also now know that the Wagman Group is the number one resource for recruiting Russian soldiers. We also now know that the Wagner Group provides most of the food and and sustainment for Russian troops.

So what it tells me is the Wagner Group is so embedded in the Russian military. And the Russian military is so dependent on the Wagner Group for some of these basic things that it looks like mister Pergosian might actually survive this and continue in some capacity To serve Russia. This is the dangedest thing. One thing that I definitely get out of this. No.

Is that mister Putin is not nearly as quote unquote in charge of his nation as we all thought. This is This whole thing tells me that there are a lot more cracks and light shining through in the superstructure. Which goes back to my original premise, General, that they're vulnerable now. The Russians don't want to be there to begin with. They don't know how to fight.

They're not well drilled. They're not well schooled. They're officers having trouble getting disciplined. They've lost 50% of their fighting force, according to Utel Intel experts, UK Intel experts. And the worst is yet to come if the Ukrainians can capitalize.

Uh and final thought?

Well The final part is Slava Ukraini. There's a lot of dialogue in our nation about what we should be doing. Or not be doing for Ukraine. Put me on the side of these people are fighting an existential fight against a former world superpower who is bent on eliminating the Ukraine state. I don't stand for that.

I don't think a lot of people stand for that. We should be giving Ukraine what they need to win on this battlefield. We have said more than once that we're going to support Ukraine in what they want to do. Ukraine's President and Ukraine's people in recent polling have said in a demonstrative way, all Russians out of all of Ukraine. There you go.

That's what we should be working on. Retired General Philip Breedlove, thanks so much for your passion, your insight. Former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO. Thanks, General. Thank you.

You got it. 1-866-408-7669. Your calls next, then Shannon Bream. You're listening to the Brian Killmeat Show. Expanding your knowledge base.

It's the Brian Kill Meat Show. A talk show that's real. This is the Brian Kill Me Show. Hey, welcome back everybody. I'm gonna have Shannon Bremon truly To talk about what's happening.

I hope you don't mind opening up. I know Ukraine may not be the first thing on your mind, but believe me. If you want to affect foreign policy, Ukraine has to win. Can you imagine emboldened Russia even in five years, they'll rejigger, they'll firm up again, they'll learn from this experience and they'll be even more of a formidable partner with China. Instead, they need to be humiliated like they deserve to be humiliated.

And that's what they're en route to happening if we give the Ukrainians what they want: the ability to fight effectively. but to fight effectively against the Russians, who, by the way, Keep in mind, Vladimir Putin lost that whole guise of invincibility. He lost the whole guise of mister Tough guy. He could take his shirt and go anywhere he wants on a horseback now. The only thing people are going to remember is when they were moving on Moscow, this guy left the city.

And now, his number one enemy says, I'm going to exonerate him, last report. And he was back in St. Petersburg. So, you're going to go through his stuff and try to humiliate him. That's fine, but it seems ineffective and a half measure if he's able to go back in the country.

Remember, he was cheered. Uh Prushkogin, Prushkogan, uh Pr Prgoshin when he came back into that country. I think he's as evil as it gets, so I'm not hoping for his success. What I want is chaos. Chaos in Russia.

To a degree. knowing that their nuclear arsenal will be secure. A radio show like no other. It's Brian. Kill me.

It's going to get ugly. And look, I think threads do look almost exactly like Twitter. I was sort of struck that. In the design, in the the Usability, very, very similar. Look, I think the challenge though is Elon Musk has Been his own worst enemy at times.

And he had a really good product, which I think he talked about free speech and opening it up to a lot more users, but he's created a lot of glitches, a lot of problems that even some of his biggest fans have really gotten frustrated with. And look, Zuckerberg sees a business opportunity. I think he never talked about creating a competitor to Twitter until some of these recent developments. And look, I think he's the Strongest threat to Twitter in that social media. Yeah, I think they got 30 million users already in one day.

Joining us now, Shannon Bream. Shannon, are you on threads? I did sign up. Only because it was so easy. And I always say I'm not doing any more social media because I'm old.

And I'm not, like, you're not going to see me doing TikToks and that kind of stuff. Brain's got to draw the line somewhere. But the thread thing was so easy, I'm like, well, I gotta go check it out. I'm an investigative journalist, Brian. I've got to know what's going on in the world.

My problem is in the big picture, it's not that you're on another social media and when I call, I'm going to get voicemail. That's a different story. I don't like that Elon Musk actually unveiled what was going on behind the scenes at a level I never thought possible. He deserves full credit for it. A lot of the evidence that Schellenberger brought forward and Matt Taibbi brought forward and Barry Reich's brought forward is only because of Elon Musk, which got us the court ruling that helps the country about political bias and with the pandemic and deciding what science is right.

All those things were exposed and our ruling's there to protect. But how are we ever going to get access to find out what's going on with another social media platform that's there to compete with Elon Musk, who just happened to leave the family of oppression a short time ago? Yeah, and so this new judge's ruling, it's temporary, but it suggests that he may be going that way. But how in the world do we believe that? Because are you going to have to rely on whistleblowers either inside the government or these social media companies to tip us off complying with the ruling which says the government, these specific agencies, the people can't be having secret conversations with social media?

Right, which makes me think that Elon Musk has to prevail. And I'm wondering legally. Does he have something there that they hired former Twitter employees and they've made the exact same site? Is that allowed in the social media world? Does he have a legal case?

I think that what they're going to do is say, well, it's slightly different, the way the chronology works and the way the postings work, and it's a longer format and all that kind of thing. But I think that it's a risk that Zuck is willing to take because I think he feels like Elon is on the ropes with some of the stuff.

So, you know, he's going to go after it and make that product just different enough that he can argue it's not a direct copy. Because there are a lot of social media companies that will say, well, what do we have in common? You can post, you can post pictures, you can post video. Thread seems suspiciously like as it's being called, quote, a Twitter killer. I wouldn't be surprised if we're in litigation very soon.

Right. And then it goes on, and we don't know if anything's going to be stopped. I didn't think Truth Social, that's similar to Twitter. They didn't get any lawsuits. Maybe because they don't view it as a threat.

Why do you think that is? Yeah, I think they probably see it as a different platform because they see that it's a smaller audience capture and it's mostly people who are fans of President Trump, agree with him, want to hear more from him. It's not that same open public square I think that people would argue Twitter is. I think Threads is a much closer match to that. Elon Musk tweeted out.

Competition is fine, cheating is not. Zuckerberg says, wow, 30 million sign-ups this morning. Feels like the beginning of something special. Uh but we've got a lot of work to do to build our app. Uh he later would say Uh through Andy Stone, to be clear.

No one of the Threads engineering team is a former Twitter employee. It's just not a thing. And then Zuckerberg said basically that there was an opening there and a playful jab at Elon saying Threads has officially arrived, and the CEO of his great company, Meta, took time to go after and take a jab at the social media saying this: I think there should be a public conversation with 1 billion people in it. Twitter had an opportunity to do this, but hasn't nailed it. Hopefully we will.

So, game on, and this just plays into the octagon story. And I'm just wondering if Elon Musk doesn't buy it. Does he have any interest in rolling out threads?

Well, I I don't even think it matters if you're saying you specifically hired Twitter employees or engineers. I mean, if your claim is going to be that they're ripping off your business model and it's such a match that it's in direct infringement, I don't think it matters if you hire Twitter employees or not. What I do want to see is the physical showdown these two keep saying that they're careening towards, because I think they can do something good, make it pay-per-view for charity or something. I think that they should take out their frustrations in the ring and let some charities benefit.

So When we look at, as I pivot over to the White House, when we look at this White House story, is this going to be an episode of Cold Case in 25 years where we just can't get to the bottom of it? Because the new report says the cocaine was found in a cubby near the White House's West executive entrance, not the West Wing lobby, wiping out the generic stray tourist with extra Coke that he was tired of carrying around in this hot summer day? I want you to hear Andrew Bates on Air Force One answer the question that people have. Is this Hunter and Joe's Cut 11? Former President Trump has made some pretty wild posts recently on social media.

One of them was that the cocaine found in the White House had belonged to either the President or his son. Are you willing to say that that's not the case, that it don't belong to them? I don't have a response to that because we have to be careful about the Hatch Act. Is that true? Was he in danger of going to jail for violating the Hatch Act and talking about cocaine?

And be a little bit of a stretch. And if that's the case, that anything having to do with Hunter somehow Triggers the hatch act. Then every situation and every conversation they've ever had that has mentioned Hunter's name or the investigation or the charges or the plea deal was that all hatch act stuff too. I mean, I think it stretches the Hatch Act a little bit to say that that's going to be triggered by these conversations. But it is interesting to a lot of folks out there who will say, gosh, it was very quickly done that the people who were involved with January 6th, I mean, within hours, some of them, within days, their phones had been triangulated.

People were showing up at their homes, at their businesses to question them, to arrest them. Like when there's an investigation that the federal government wants to get done, at least the optics are to people out there that they can very swiftly get things done. All of us who have spent time at the White House know you do not just walk in there. It is very controlled, and you're controlled to only certain parts that you're cleared into.

So if there's a universe of people that would be in a specific area that's not open to public traffic, which you would still have a record of anybody coming in on a tour or anything else. It stretches belief for people to think that there's no way this can be ever solved, much less, not in a few days or weeks. Especially if you believe in yourself. Shannon, if it is Hunter Biden's. Number one.

What does it do for a potential plea deal that's evidently been framed out and been accepted in June, knowing that drugs and tax evasion are part of it? First, I want to ask you that question.

Okay. And I think it is a leap for us to say like, oh, there's some connection to Hunter. We just have no clue. He's supposedly clean, sober, having a family life now, doing really well. I think everybody wants that.

Nobody wants an addict. Have a problem there.

So I think, you know, that's a little bit of dangerous speculation to go there. But yeah, July 26th is coming quickly. And that deal has to be approved by a judge if there are still questions at all about what's going on with Hunter. And we know that to avoid the gun charges, he has to agree to certain things, that he won't get in trouble with certain issues, crimes, potential crimes, all those kinds of things.

So if there are questions out there, I say we probably don't get any answers on this thing before July 26th. But if you can clear out and say that it's an employee or staff or a visitor, whatever, that actually works to the benefit of Hunter.

So they should give us that information before the 26th. The fact is, I think in Washington there are a lot of people doing cocaine.

So I think there are a lot of potential contenders for being attached to that bag.

So who else is doing cocaine, Janet? I'm not going to say personally. Trust me, I don't think that all of the politico types in Washington are, you know, clean and sober at all times. But but what I would say this, if it is turns out to be his, it would blow up the plea deal, right? Oh yeah.

I mean if you could have a definitive connection, that would be a serious problem. That could upend the entire thing because it is predicated on him staying out of trouble. And the other thing would be Secret Service, a lot of times they're part of the family. They have to be around the candidate, the VIP.

So We watched the Secret Service who worked with Donald Trump be forced to testify about what he may or may not have done with those documents. Could certain Secret Service who were in the area at that same time be asked to testify what they saw with the family? I mean they couldn't. Could be compelled, and I would think that their duty is to the country, not to their specific protectees. I mean, yes, their life is on the line every day for their protectees, but ultimately their oath is to the Constitution and to the country, not to a particular person.

So, yeah, we've seen cases where Secret Service agents have been compelled to testify on any number of things. And think about with a lot of the January 6th stuff and the hearsay and things that, you know, about Secret Service agents and who were grabbing the wheel and the beast and all of these different things. And then several of them came forward and said, like, actually, the stories that you were told did not line up with what I experienced that day.

So on any number of issues, they could be called, you know, to testify.

Sound of Freedom is this runaway hit movie that's beating Harrison Ford's latest Raiders of the Lost Ark movie. Is it Raiders of the Lost Ark? Indiana Jones, excuse me.

Sound of Freedom. And Jim Cavizzo came out and said he feels like religion, part of this is a religious movie, Christianity Religion is under attack. Have you heard that before? From what you see, does he have a case? You might have seen some of those interviews.

Yeah, and I interrupted. Him during COVID too, and he talked about that he thought that the churches really needed to have much more of a backbone about standing up. And religious leaders had to stand up and say, if you're going to let liquor stores and strip clubs and pet stores and hardware stores and all these other places be open, we should be showing up for church. And he really felt like a lot of religious leaders in this country kind of caved in a way he thought they shouldn't. And he made the case then, this is a couple years ago, saying, you know, people of faith and people of religion in this country need to grow a backbone and be doing a lot more out there to share their faith, to stand up for their faith, and not kind of just, you know, roll over and go along to get along.

So that's a theme I've heard from him quite a bit. But this movie, I can't wait to see it. I have a lot of friends and folks who have seen it. It's a very powerful story. And I think people are desperate for a story where good overcomes evil, which is what this is about.

And I think people want to believe that there are people who are willing to go out there, put themselves on the line, fight for the innocent, and make some good things happen in the world. All right. Did you notice that? I did an interview this morning about these Muslim families and Christian families combining because they do not like some of the curriculum in these public schools. And I've never, I didn't anticipate Christians and Muslims getting together on so many issues of late.

Have you noticed that? Yeah, because a lot of that's happening in our area, in the DC metro area in Washington. And these families are talking about the fact that they want an option. If you're teaching material that's in conflict with our religious faith and our beliefs, Islam and how we're raising our children, we want an opt-out. We're not saying that we're pulling the kids out of the school or whatever.

We just think that parents should be notified about things that don't line up with what we're trying to teach our kids and that we should be able to have an opt-out. And they're saying in at least one county in our area that they're not going to be allowed an opt-out.

So your kids have no option but to learn something that for these Muslim families say is in direct conflict with what they want to teach their children. And they find it very disrespectful and damaging. And yeah, there is that commonality that's very interesting among these families of deep faith who say on these particular issues, we are very much lined up on the, you know, religious freedom in this country, freedom of speech, all of these things that we want for our kids. And we don't think we should have to segregate them out of public schools in order to, you know, let them learn the values that we have at home. Understood.

Have you thought about guests for your weekend show? I have Have. Shall I tell you about them? Yes. Okay, there's a lot of foreign policy, as you know.

The President's traveling off to NATO. Are these countries like Turkey and Hungary going to, you know? Make agreements. Let Sweden get in. It's an important thing.

And what about Ukraine? I mean, is that something that everybody wants to happen?

So we're talking foreign policy with Democrat Senator Tim Kaine and Republican Senator John Barroso. And we're also going to talk D24: what's going on in the polls in the world with former Governor Chris Christie. Why is he doing this? What is his lane? What's he all about?

So we've got that to talk about and much more. David Weiss, U.S. Attorney, is he going to testify? At what point will he talk with the committee about the Hunter Biden case? And what are you doing Saturday night?

I'm going to be on your show and also watching your show. You're going to watch it. You're going to watch the rest from the green room. That's fantastic. Yeah, I will watch, I will participate, and that will help me prep for Sunday morning.

Anything I can do to help the network and to help Shannon Breen become even a bigger star, if that's possible. By hanging out with you, I'm hoping you will rub off on me. That's the plan. And oh, by the way, pick up the love stories of the Bible, speak biblical lessons in romance, friendship, and faith. Lastly, and this is the hardest one: do you believe the Tom Brady-Kim Kardashian relationship is real?

And if it's not, what do I believe in anymore? I don't, but the only way we will know it is if he starts modeling her underwear line skims. If he doesn't add for them, then I'll believe they're together. All right. It's going to create some tension with Kanye.

But that's, I live for other people's relationships, so this is right up my alley. You know what? I'm going to send Tom and Kim a copy of Love Stories of the Bible Speak just in case. I think it's a great idea. Uh thanks so much, Adam.

Bream, see you in an hour. See Saturday. Oh yeah. Back in a moment. Educating, entertaining, enlightening.

You're with Brian Kilmead. The more you listen, the more you'll know it's Brian Killmead. Tom Brady can't date Kim Kardashian, okay? Tim Kardashian. Listen, she's hot.

She's a bazillionaire. But she's like... A paparazzi girl. On camera to get famous. Sure, she talented, she does other stuff.

She ruins. every man's life she touches. Cheese. A daily news of page six. A reality T V girl.

Nothing. What am I? I'm nothing. She's like, I'm not saying there's something wrong with that. But you're Tom Brady.

Exactly, you Tom Brady, Kim Kardashian's gonna go follow up after Kanye West? I mean What's the I don't see the problem. I don't understand like it's she's Quite dynamic, as is he. They probably will have interesting. Conversations.

I think they're both little Who knows? But, you know, possibly beautiful children. No, 45, 42. Yeah, 40. I think it's there's nothing wrong with it.

I think it's fun. Portnoy just loves Tom Brady, so I think he's.

Well, I just think he's looking out for his best interests. His best interests. Don't use it. Long-term or short-term.

Well, I just think number one, well, I'm just saying a long-term thing would not be good for him. It sounds like he's just trying to find himself after retiring from football. It's a thing. It just wants to have fun. I mean, he did say he needed a lot of electrolytes after that white party.

I thought he doesn't. I guess he spurged and he had some alcohol. Yeah, I guess so. He said he's still holding on to that diet. The other thing we have not talked about is Mayor DeBasio and his wife.

I mean, they are, they decided. She said she rubbed his back and says, How come you're not cuddly with me, essentially? And he says, Oh, by the way, let's just get it. No, I think it was the opposite. I think he asked her, Why aren't you lovey-dovey with me?

Oh, you mean he, the tall one? Yeah, the man.

So that makes it even, yes. And they're like, Oh. And then she said, I have a great idea. Let's separate, live together, And date other people. And date other people.

Why not? Can you can you right now just jot down a list of the people, couples that you know this worked out with? Not many. I did see on the post though, and I didn't read the story, but um, they asked New York City uh single ladies if uh deplasio is an eligible bachelor or not and what they had to say about him. I mean I Do you think people are running beaten down?

It's all he's rich. Yeah. I mean, it's all he's rich. And Sid Rosenberg this morning, the WABC elite anchor, said that they got huge court problems, legal problems, and that they're better off staying together to fight them, I guess, legally, perhaps.

So maybe that's the real reason they're not moving out. Eric, would you be able to get on that and work on it in the break? Eric's going to work on both relationships. From high atop Fox News headquarters in New York City. Always seeking solutions, never sowing division.

It's Brian Kilmead. Hi, everyone. Welcome to the latest moments of the Brian Killmeat Show, one of the last hours of the week on a weird week. I mean, you got the holiday right in the middle, July 4th, and just when you think everything's normal, out comes a key ruling in a court case that's going to impact social media and possibly how we're covering. Election major news stories and medical events in our history.

And this judge that k who's a hero with in my mind, Judge Doughty, who was Put in place by Donald Trump. But the vote was Ninety-eight to zero. For his approval, and then originally was nominated by Barack Obama, looked at what's happened with social media and came out and said, It's not going to stand anymore. You try to do this, and it is going to be illegal, and you'll be arrested. And I'm talking about the FBI, Commerce Department, White House looking on social media and deciding to squelch anybody's voice that's not endangering the union.

And that means Donald Trump Jr. cannot have be shadow banned. That means you can't ban someone like Kayleigh McInaney for retweeting a New York Post story like you did before. You can't do everything that Matt Taibbi and Michael Schellenberger and Barry Weiss were able to re and Dave Rubin were able to reveal when they got to look at the Twitter files. And things like the FBI going out of their way to say classic Russians information and fifty one Intel experts decide to marginalize the biggest story that nobody covered until eight months later with Hunter Biden and the revelations that could have swipped an election.

So that happened in the middle of the week. It's a different week. But it's not the only big story. Stunningly, and I thought it was a joke at first: cocaine was found at the White House. The third location now it's been found at the White House.

Third location, get this. A new report says cocaine that was found at the White House was now found in a cubby near the White House's West executive entrance, not the formal West Wing. It's heavily trafficked only with people from the White House and their guests, not tourists, who are getting the blame, possibly in speculation for people looking to cover for the Bidens, that cocaine couldn't possibly have come from them. Billares. Multiple officials involved in the White House cocaine inquiry now say the bag of powder was found in a cubby near the West Executive Wing.

Investigators expect this to be done, investigation to be done by Monday. And two sources familiar with the investigation say the inquiry has previously been expected to take a couple of weeks. And on Monday, they could come out and say, investigation complete, we don't know.

Now, it would never happen with you and I believe, they get to the bottom of it. They have DNA. But you know how inconclusive DNA is. I'm being sarcastic. The cocaine was found in an entrance area now between the foyer and lower level lobby.

They say the sources say the entrance is near where the some vehicles like the Vice President's Limo or S U V park. Oh, wow. Blame Kamala. Why not? I'm not saying that blame Kamala.

I'm just saying now she's got to be a suspect, which is just hysterical. Is that when the rest of the media that is always covering for the Bidens or just not curious about things that might make them look bad can't get enough of this story? And they're asking questions, and some of the answers are so ridiculous, they're worth recording. This is pure audio because it was taken on Air Force One. This is Andrew Bates, the deputy press secretary.

He's probably been demoted today. Cut 11. Former President Trump has made some pretty wild posts recently on social media. One of them was that the cocaine found in the White House was it had belonged to either the President or his son. Are you willing to say that that's not the case, that they don't belong to them?

I I don't have uh a response to that because we have to be careful about the Hatch Act. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Do we have more of that soundbite? There does seem to be some increasing frustration.

Coming from that corner in general. And I think it is probably rooted in the contrast between their substantive policy records. Okay, this is hysterical. I got to read this already. What I will say is that I noticed there does seem to be some increasing frustration coming from that corner in general.

Okay. So instead of saying It is not. I've questioned the President and he's assured me nothing from the Biden family. Instead, we get what I will say is I've noticed this is increasing frustration. All right.

Now remember, this is the third place. That they've located That they've said that the the cocaine was located in. If it is hunters. Think about how problematic this is. Brett Tolman did cut 13.

The requirements that they're putting on him are that he's not supposed to do drugs and he's not supposed to possess a firearm.

Well, that's easy enough. Just give him a felony and let him suffer the consequences like everybody else for his felonious activities. This bag of cocaine, if it has any connection Any connection whatsoever to Hunter, it is a game changer. The federal drug laws are very tough, even on small amounts. Five grams of a cocaine base can get you a mandatory minimum of five years in federal prison.

It will all depend on what the prosecutors want to do, but this is very treacherous territory for Hunter Biden. Right. And this guy keeps coming up again.

Now, look, someone wrote me today and said, isn't it odd that someone could have that strong of an addiction for this period of time and quit just like that? And you always think because we know the pattern with drug abuse and alcohol abuse, it's so hard. Gambling, any addiction, it's so easy to have a relapse. And I'm not judging people, I'm just telling you. That's what makes people think.

Listen, they know people in their own families and then themselves say, Listen, I couldn't quit in one session, one rehab stand, or two or three. Let's see whose it is. But that's not all the Hunter Biden story. The other story is the whistleblowers that have come forward and talk about the sham in which this investigation took place, and they put their careers on the line to come forward and just say this investigation was not on the level, they seem to have already been punished. Experts are baffled at the White House invoking the Hatch Act, and they're also baffled by the fact is that the whistleblowers have been pulled off the Hunter Biden prosecution case and the probe.

The Republicans, like Jim Jordan, said, Hey, uh Andrew Weiss. you're going over this probe and you're already punishing whistleblowers that have come forward and doubted the purity of your investigation. How can you do that? You have until yesterday to come forward at five o'clock. They've totally ignored it.

How do you just ignore this? And how do you just sully whistleblowers and come forward? This is what gives people like Edward Snowden. A reason When they come out and said, I went to Hong Kong and then I went to Russia because I knew if I came forward with the revelations I had through normal whistleblowers' venues, I would be punished and lose my job. I was the one of the people that said you've got to go through those passages.

You'll be protected by Grassley and Jordan or whoever's in power then. But it makes Edward Snowden's decision look wise, although living in Russia, never wise. Here's Miranda Demine. She's all over this, the author of Laptop from Hell, New York Post columnist, Cup fifteen. He's on the run, and you heard him say he thinks he'll be on the run for the rest of his life.

He tells me that he's really in fear of his life. I'll pause this for a second just to further define this. This is the story. He's talking about Dr. Gal Luft, who is overseas now, who thought it would be a good idea to expose what he knew about the Biden family and their overseas business operations.

He wanted to do it for the country because he saw that Biden was making gains in the primaries and wanted to make sure that they knew that the person they were nominating might be compromised.

Now, let's continue.

Now, he doesn't want to give his location. He's afraid he's going to be killed.

So, he put a 15-minute video out, and those are some of the clips I could play for you after this. But he just talks about the way the Bidens go after whistleblowers no matter where they are and who they are. Cut 15. If he can testify by, I don't know, remote video or by sending in a video. I don't know how Coma will figure that out.

But what we do know is that the Democrats are absolute past masters at trashing every whistleblower that comes forward. And you're seeing in real time, as they're doing it, to the IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley, a man with an impeccable record of honesty and integrity who has recovered billions of dollars for this country. And you just watch how they tear him down.

So I am watching it, and I thought if you put sunlight on it, it would be protected. But obviously, it's not. Here is Dr. Gal Luft. It's worth playing again.

It's not getting a lot of play so far.

Now, I know he's got, you know, they're coming after him and saying that he's dealing weapons to other countries. He's Israeli. He lived in Washington, DC.

Some of his associates are people we've had on as guests in our show, like James Woolsey, former CIA director. Uh under d uh under this guy named Bill Clinton. Also, I think he was uh a supporter of Donald Trump's. Cut sixteen. The D O J sent to Brussels.

A delegation of Six um people. Two prosecutors from the Southern District of New York. by the names of Daniel Reichenthal and Catherine Gauche. And four FBI agents. One of them was Special Agent Joshua Wilson from the Baltimore Field Office, which also happens to cover the state of Delaware.

Now you want to ask yourself, why did the government dispatch to Europe so many people. The answer is that they knew very well that I am a credible Uh witness And that I have insider knowledge about the group and the individuals that enriched the Biden family.

Okay. Now that's a guy. Who's coming forward, naming names of people in the room, telling you the FBI agents and their name? And he also says they got a mole in the White House who's got one eye. If you are making up a story.

It's hard to imagine you naming names, putting out a tape, putting your name out there, and talking about government officials. They would turn around and sue you or Knowing that they were going to be asked about this. And all of them have to turn around and go, he's a liar, this never happened. My sense is people this savvy, involved in intelligence, know how to cover their tracks and back up the veracity of their statements. That's my sense.

When you do it for a living. You know, the average whistleblower IRS investigator, maybe not. But a a guy like this, Dr. Gal Loft, With uh Israeli background? Names of Special Agent Joshua Wilson for the Baltimore Field Office.

That's a guy that's pretty strong. I mean, that's pretty specific. He didn't say four FBI agents, I didn't get their names. Black hats. Black jackets.

Dark glasses. No, he's naming names.

So It's hard to believe that this Rehoboth retreat this weekend with Joe Biden and Hunter Biden. Is going to be like every other July 4th week away, right before a NATO. Get together, which is what they're doing. When we come back, I'll take your calls and we're going to go over some other things, including Zach. Thank you.

The MetaMan suddenly decides he wants to take down Twitter. I think it has everything to do with the fact that Musk has been transparent about what's been happening leading up to the 2020 election and the pandemic. Afterwards, you'll see him on Brian Killmee Show.

So glad you're here. Learning something new every day on the Brian Killmeat Show. If you're interested in it, Brian's talking about it. You're with Brian Kilmead. I don't think we know for sure.

I will accept the fact he probably did go back to St. Petersburg to kind of clean house and make certain he's got everything he wants. He's got multiple mansions in Europe and certainly in Russia itself where he can posit himself.

So we don't know for sure where he is. The fact is he does have obviously a sphere of freedom that he can execute despite the armed rebellion that took place a week plus ago. That is the big mystery. And I'm always fascinated by guys like General Jack Keene, talking to General Breedlove, former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO, say, I don't really know what's going on in Russia. And man, a consequential country, I like chaos.

I'm not under any illusion that Medvedev or anybody else would be better. I'm not saying that. Of course, there was an opening in the 90s. If we were doing this show in the 90s. And by the way, I think I was filling over Tony Snow.

2002. What do you think? 2003?

So let's say in the 90s, there was a sense that Putin was an aberration, that there was a move for a degree of freedom, a hybrid between an autocratic and democratic government over in Russia. That, you know, Yeltsin, as a big drunk as he was, was giving people an opportunity to invest in Russia, build some things in Russia, and that is why. people like Bill Browder were bringing their money and opportunities and entrepreneurial instincts over to that country. I'm not saying that's going to happen. That would be pie in the sky thinking it's not impossible, but it's true.

But there are 156 million people. They have the biggest nuclear arsenal in the world. And they are on the march. They're on the march in Syria. They're creating havoc in Europe.

We'll see what they're doing in Africa. They actually have a role in Venezuela. As they have chaotic, if they are forced to actually attend to their people and their needs and bring some of that money home instead of into the yachts of the oligarchs, that'll be better for the world. And that is why I really could not, I couldn't be more intrigued about what's next in Russia. While the Wagner group.

And they say The Pergogian is not being pursued. Not being pursued because he didn't focus on Moscow. Interesting. Here is the president of Belarus, who legitimately, and they thought it was a sham, but legitimately negotiated a de-escalization two weeks ago. He says.

The guy's not here. Even though I gave him a base to bring the Wagner Group, he's not here. Cut twenty three. In terms of Yevgeny Progoshin, he is in St. Petersburg.

Or maybe this morning he would travel to Moscow or elsewhere. But he is not on the territory of Belarus now. Fascinating.

So, with this chaos and knowing the Russians are not into this fight, and realizing that these people are not stupid, and there were no Nazi movement in Ukraine, and that they've taken hundreds of Ukrainian children, innocent children, and they have just disappeared or been forced on forced adoption into Russia, and see some of the horror and their friends being grinded up into the meat grinder while the generals sit in the back and continue to push forward. William Burns, the CIA director, sees an opportunity. I thought this was an extraordinary sound by Cut24. Disaffection with the war will continue to gnaw away at the Russian leadership beneath the steady diet of state propaganda and practiced repression. That disaffection creates a once-in-a-generation opportunity for us at CIA.

at our core a human intelligence service. We're not letting it go to waste. We recently used social media, our first video post to telegram, in fact, to let brave Russians know how to contact us safely on the dark web. We had 2.5 million views in the first week, and we're very much open for business. And think about the hundreds of thousands that left rather than go for the draft.

You think about the oligarchs that have picked up stakes and gone with their money. I'm sure they have to worry about what's in their food and where their family is. I'm sure that's an issue, but they'd rather take that risk than stay in that country. And if we could give the Ukrainian help the Ukrainians get the victory they deserve in their country back, and maybe even get as much as Crimea back, this will be the first break internationally we've gotten in quite some time. Because if you think about Iraq, that was a menace.

You think about Afghanistan, the way we chose to leave. You think about China's influence in the Central and South America. You think about the Belt and Road program, as unsuccessful as it's been, it's still been a program out to circumvent us. It would be great to see some of the new axes of evil, which is Iran, North Korea, Russia, and China, get some suffering, suffer from some setbacks. On top of that, China's economy not going strong nearly as much as they thought when Secretary of Treasury Yellen landed in.

China, they hope To de-escalate America's tariffs and stop as America tries is going to try to shield off our key clouds with Amazon. And Microsoft, and right now make them give permission by to get permission from the U.S. government before they allow China to use it at all. China's responded by limiting certain metal exports. They're looking.

for Yellen to be the voice of reason there. And then comes John Kerry, the voice of illogic in his climate agenda. When we come back, We're going to be joined by Tyrus. And I'm going to tell him once and for all what would happen if we ever got in the Octagon. No holes barred, just me and him.

I'm going to let him know what will happen. Radio that makes you think. This is the Brian Kill Me Show. Tom Brady can't date Kim Kardashian, okay? Tim Kardashian.

Listen, she's hot. She's a bazillionaire. But she's like A paparazzi girl. She f ⁇ ed on camera to get famous. Sure, she talents you, she does other stuff.

She ruins. every man's life she touches. She's A daily news of page six A reality T V girl. Nothing. What am I?

I'm nothing. She's like, I'm not saying there's something wrong with that. But you're Tom Brady. And that is Dave Portnoy of the famously of Barstool founder, a multi-millionaire himself, who worships Tom Brady. And we saw the news, the 45-year-old dating the 42-year-old Kim Kardashian, with me right now, relationship expert Tyrus.

As well as Julie Banderis, who's also loves talking about other couples. We were really successful at relationships. How many shows have you been on just talking about these relationships? We actually have a dual book coming out. Just on Kim Kardashian's How Not to Do It.

Crime and Circumstance. Right. The Love Boat.

So listen. It's sinking. That white party. Michael Rubin, evidently. Do you know him?

I interviewed him once.

Okay. We're both Boston fans. I mean, he's all right. I got nothing to do with it. He's got a white party that everybody wants to go to in the Hamptons.

I mean, Tyrus, you go to a lot of these, and you live in the Hamptons. I do. Right. Can you give your exact address out? Yeah, no.

No, please don't do that. I will not do that. But it was one of these parties that everybody wants to go to. Tom Brady and Kim Kardashian. I don't have parties anymore.

You're used to them. I've traveled the world. I've literally worked for the coolest dude on the planet. I've seen it all. Yeah, I've seen it all.

Not Godfilm. No, not Godfilm. I don't really work for him. Oh. Uh but I've seen it all, so those things don't appeal to me.

I think it's funny that people were even talking about this. Like leave Tom alone. You know, this is Tom Brady. Yeah, I don't. There's nothing to this.

I don't think there's any there there because he. Kim does everything on social media for attention. That's her brand. That's how she does it. And if there would have been pictures, there would have been all kinds of stuff.

She would have came out. And then, of course, then we would have had Yee going Buck Wild. Right. Like Kanye. Like, Tom Brady is a saint.

You know, he's just going to do his right thing. And hey, even let's say it wasn't. That's the thing is. How about you applaud a guy who's 45 and is dating in his age group? Because everyone loves to attack older guys for dating younger men.

Here he is. Yeah. You know, so.

So you brought up a lot of you've said a lot of things. You said a lot. You said Tom Bray is a great guy. Kim Kardashian, round his age. And he's allowed to date who he wants.

But they are public figures Julie Bandaris, and it is noteworthy that two very famous, two of the most famous people in the world. Yeah. Might be dating because it just so happens, Kim Kardashian. I have met her a few times, seems a lovely woman, extremely successful, but every man she is with gets ruined. Kanye West lost his mind.

Even what's his name? Kanye was crazy before they got married. Davidson went into mental rehab. Listen, he also had mental issues and depression issues and personality issues before we met Kim.

Okay, so we don't blame him in front of a camera all the time. A lot to say about this. First of all, they're both divorced. I mean, they're both divorced, so they have every right to date. Kim Kardashian, I've known for years.

I've been. Close personal friends of hers. She's a really sweet girl. She's actually a really good person. She's an amazing mother.

She's loyal as hell. She's a good person. I'm telling you. Not only that, she's so driven and she's so outspoken. And she stands up for people that otherwise would not be stood up for, meaning, you know, prisoners that perhaps were wrongfully imprisoned.

But she tries, you know, and she, I think that she gets a bad rap just because she's part of Keeping Up with the Kardashians. She's actually one of the nicest. I know the entire cast. I knew Kanye before they got married. He was crazy and he was crazy during their marriage.

In fact, all of the family did not understand why she married Kanye. We were all kind of like, what the hell is she thinking? You're not buying it. I don't think that they're together per se, but I wouldn't doubt if they were flirty and stuff. And if they were together, I'd say more power to her.

She likes football players. The dynamic is basketball players. And there's only the one, the kid that was in New Jersey, is the only one who survived. He owns a restaurant now. Humphreys?

Which one? Humphreys, the lights come down. He survived. Humphreys has survived.

Okay, Humphreys is a complete loser. Oh, my God. That's what I'm talking about. Do you know him? Have you hung out with him?

I've spent 4th of July together. I just want to hug him like, oh, we yell together free and laugh. My sister directed his wedding. You have no idea how much dirt I have on Humphreys. Holy, where'd it come from?

That guy, because I knew him personally. I'm telling you. First of all, my sister directed his wedding. Salt of the earth, Kardashian. She directed his wedding.

Yes, she absolutely directed his wedding because he was televised and she directed it. No, but my sister was the executive producer of Keeping Up with the Kardashians. I have so much dirt on him. I'm not sure if you're a camera for over 25 years. You have no idea.

Humphreys is such a jackass. Like, he is such a jacket. You know what? He's not here to defend himself, so I'm not. I don't care.

He was still in the NBA if he didn't marry her. No, his footwork was horrendous, but he had effort. He had great effort. And you know what? Let's just keep it real.

Since you want to put her over so well, he's such a tool. Yeah. God, he's a good idea. How about getting a bunch of plastic surgery and then making videos with girls on diet information, telling them, this is all you have to do to be like this? Like, oh, that's fine.

She's an influencer, and guess what? She makes millions and millions of dollars. Millions of dollars convincing girls. They can look like her with butt implants, boob implants, nose, jobs. She's not telling people to go out and do it.

If you go out and do it, then you're stupid because you're following her. Diet implants, convincing girls. Like, yeah, just drink this shake and you'll look just like this. No. Boo, this woman.

She's not telling anybody to do any of that. She's living her life. She's going to be a very nice boy. She's very, very nice. And she's an amazing mother.

Okay, this is, by the way, we're making news here. This is to see the, to take two global figures and break it down. Is such a loser.

Sorry. Alex dare you besmirch. God, I have so much more of him. Bad enough to go through that life and last year. I'll tell you.

Alison, this is the first time besmirch was used on the show ever. Eric, would you look up in our library? All right, so how about this? Uh AI Joe Biden. Listen to this.

You would think this is the old school of comedy. Here's Joe Biden talking about what he's up against on The Daily Show. U Now hey, I know I'm old as f I get it, America. I'm tired. I'm slowing down.

I'll make Al Pacino look like Timothy Chalam. I know I wasn't your first choice in 2020. Hell, I wasn't my first choice. You think I like getting a syringe of B12 plunged in my ass every morning just to stay alert enough to run this country? Sh, no.

But these are the cards we're dealt, Jack. I'm going to be so hopped up on goofballs and cocaine. I'm going to make Don Jr. look normal. Reality is I can't step down and let who?

Kamala run? Have you seen her as Veep? Get the f out of here. My priorities in 2024.

So all I can say is a vote for me is a vote for four more years of holding fascism at bay. Or as long as this ticker keeps pumping a minimal amount of blood for consciousness. And if you can't tell this is an AI-generated voice, then lots of luck in your senior year. Whatever the fuddy means. That was amazing.

How funny is that? I actually sound in 40 years. He actually should endorse that and say it was him because that was the coolest Biden I've ever heard. I love that. I'd vote for him based on that AI.

I would. He would have said, come on, pal. You're talking about, you know, Jack. That was amazing. So, what I find really amazing about that, now they did the AI voice pretty good, is him in the 80s, 70s.

Uh number two is is actually funny. And they would not do that in SNL today. They would not do the remember they made fun of Barack Obama. He had a really bad debate. They would never do that again.

And that's what's killing me about comedy. They're doing it now because they've turned on him.

So now it's all coming out.

Now they want to get on the block. He's old all of a sudden. All of a sudden, now he's old. No, he was old 20 years ago. You know, Harrison Ford is 81 and doing the damn thing.

Still working at a high level, doing high-action movies. He's, and, but Biden, who's around the same age. Is can't function like so. We're not making fun of 80. No, he's just his life.

All people age differently. One 80-year-old is not necessarily at the same cognitive level as another 80-year-olds. But I have to say this: this administration never owns up to anything, right? They never admit anything. They never admit that, yeah, he's a little older than his age, right?

And he doesn't necessarily cognitively have it all together. They should make that.

Well, okay, not I'm old as F, but that was actually my favorite part. But they should say, Look, I'm not a spring chicken. No, I'm not 55. And yeah, when we get in our 80s, we might not be as sharp. I don't know.

Tyre should always be aware of that. I think he should admit it. He says the exact wrong thing when he says, Watch me, because we are watching you.

Well, like painfully. Pete Budiched said it so eloquently. If you could only see him in the office doing what he does best, if you could just sit in there, and this is where maybe you could make a call to your friend Kim, because she does reality TV shows. Maybe we get a reality show of what's going on in the Oval Office. You know, get some clues about that would be the most boring.

Yeah, so Biden comes out with Amazon and his. Super jacket on. With drool coming out of his face and like the indentation of his jaw with his face. And his C-Palbach off on the phone and his C-papital. Right before that news conference, by the way, why do you think he had a freaking indentation in his cheek right before that news conference?

Because he fell with his Z-pack. No, no. What?

Okay, no. He had a freaking breathing device for his sleep apnea. And he fell. He was napping right before that freaking news conference. He fell.

He fell with a sleep nabia on. But you do bring up a good point, Julie, too. He could have fallen. But he does not have long days.

Okay, but he just woke up from a nap, is probably what I'm trying to say. I'm not saying he didn't. He didn't take a nap to get ready for a nap.

So I had speculation before, which in retrospect is even more valuable now. For this segment, that he's not having a good weekend. Between the cocaine found Uh In his White House, the weekend that he now has with Hunter one-on-one, knowing that plea deal looms, if this goes back to him and his family, the deal blows up. We don't know what else they found. And number two, he's got it ready for a NATO conference.

He's also green lid cluster bombs, which one hundred and twenty countries have said not to. I'm so conscious. I'm pro cluster bomb. Anything it takes for them to beat the Russians, I'm fine with. You know, here's the thing on that.

My kids are young, so I haven't had to experience this yet. Julie, your kids are young. Like, I would be so violated if I came home and my kids had got into my favorite scotch. I'd be fired up.

So he's got to spend the weekend with his son, and he's not sure if his son got half his stash, left it out.

So he's, you know, it's going to be some awkward parenting.

So, don't worry. You know, you heard. I don't know if you saw, you follow my career close, but I do the morning show. I follow you so closely. Thank you.

I'm actually a stalker. We have, thank you. I'd be honored. Ambassador Nikki Haley was on today, and she just says. If you don't vote for me, it's a vote for Kamala Harris.

She doesn't even acknowledge that Joe Biden's on the ticket. In case you think that Kamala Harris is coming into her own three years in, listen to with her on listen to her talk about culture. Off the cuff, ask the question. You can go anywhere with it. Let's see where she goes.

Cut 34.

Well, I think. culture is It is a reflection of our moment and our time. Right. Present culture is the way we express how we're feeling about the moment. No, it's not.

And we should always find times to express how we feel about the moment that is a reflection of joy. It comes in the morning. What?

Oh, my God. We have to find ways to also express the way we feel about the moment in terms of just having language and a connection to how people are experiencing life. Oh, my God. All right. Okay, you know what?

She should take that cocaine that came in through the interest. I'm pretty sure it's hers. After hearing that, it was hers. Yeah, no, I'm pretty sure she actually needs it because I think that people that are on Coke actually are more cognitive than she is. That's really good.

She has to make you sharper. Tyrus, you know what? That was awful. She's she's drinking. That was a drunk.

Rant of Something's Her speech writer is is Jack Daniels, I believe, because that that's just somebody who's out I got it. I'll g four score and and Culture, but that's kind of the way it is with. This administration Preview and purview as the same word eight times. I'm not pretty sure she thought that meant what it was. We're still not sure.

Yeah, but she said it nine nine nineteen times or something like that. And Kamala, you know, she's just there's a flask somewhere or She just found out. The half her stash was gone. Right. And she presided in the library, and then she had to go out and talk about culture.

And basically, keep your hands out my stuff. I'm going to take a break, come back. We have a couple more minutes, but I just got to ask you: Buzz, we have a, you know, Tyra's got big news, Julie. Yeah? He's hosting the show tonight, uh, Saturday night at 10 o'clock.

Oh. Is that correct? Yeah, I got a major guest, big timer. I wasn't booked for the show. That's weird.

Actually, your people put us on hold. We're still on hold. Oh. I mean I was booked when Kat was on. I'm booked when Kat's hosting, but not with you.

So I guess you need to make some requests. Oh, we had to pick up my iPad. Oh my God, Brian is such a hot show. Tyrus, what do we call the name of the show? It's a Fox News Saturday night.

So, I mean, it's not all gold. He seems to love the title. It's very original, by the way.

So it airs on Saturday? With Tyrus, yeah. Right. It's really good. 10 o'clock.

Yeah, and it's going to be part of that jam-packed Saturday night that you've been leading from joining the chase. 8 p.m., baby. One Nation. Which was probably a good one. I'll be on One Nation with him.

We're going to be your leading, actually. We're going to be your lead, and so you may actually have a chance at good ratings. Julie Bender is going to be on One Nation. Yeah, I am.

Okay. I can't wait to see what you wear Saturday. Back in the morning. I don't think you can either. No, I'm serious.

Look at these sh birds. It's Brian Killmead. Breaking news, unique opinions. Hear it all on the Brian Kill Me Show. Is here.

Welcome back. Tyrus is here. Tyrus, first time I'm seeing you with glasses, you're looking mad with glasses. Is that the Superman thing? It's my car kid.

Yeah, it's my, well, as my kids call it, it's my dad gear.

So I wear glasses and my hat forward when I'm with my kids, thinking somehow that will How are you handling being two plac two cities like this? Honestly, you have You have weeks where you question a lot of things, especially when you're tired. Because when you can't come home and just relax. When I come home, the kids are waiting on me.

So we got and what are their ages? Nine and eleven that are at the house right now. And then my son is my son's eleven. He'll be twelve in in August. And they want to be with you all the time.

They got stuff to do. You know, we got stuff to do. And so I walk in the door and it's Uh, and then of course there's there's the other stuff, the the husband stuff. Pay bills, listen to complaints. Find out which neighbor I have to talk to.

I'm trying to think of the whole marketing card that has the yeah, no, we wear a lot you know, we wear a lot of hats and none of them hats say captain on it. You know what I'm saying? Like there's no you know, I'm still I still do the grocery shopping. I'll be like, Hey, uh We have nothing here.

Okay. You guys know I come home every Friday night, right? I'm not asking for much. Just a couple of cold cuts in the fridge would be, well, go to the store in the morning. And I know that I'm going.

So that's but it's a. It's a good, it's a good juggle, and the one thing I do when I'm here is this is the time I use for rest, like when I'm done working. I go straight to the hotel room. I don't deviate from my plan. Fox has an awesome gym downstairs, so I'm either there to my office, or I'm here as much as you are, except you're going from show to show.

I get workout breaks in. And actually, my workout buddy's becoming Bill Hemmer because he's always consistently down there. Is he really down there? Yeah, you know what I appreciate about him? Forget the fact that he's a great newsman.

He's not a chatty caddy. Like he knows what the gym's for. It's a quick hello. Oh, absolutely. And then get back to work.

You got it. Yeah, you don't. No, no, no. You don't. Cardio buddy up and start talking about the wife and kids and all that.

No, no, no, we're here to do work.

So I appreciate that. But yeah, I don't leave my life.

So he doesn't work out with you. Yeah, uh no. You just see him. No, he's he he comes in uh when I'm already just about getting ready to start doing my heavy lifting stuff, and then but uh he's there, he's his two hours. What do you think about these celebrities with these bodies, RFK, Jerry Seinfeld?

Everyone's getting into the working out. I mean, are you seeing this now?

Well, I think everyone wants to stick around. It's survival. Yeah, it's not like, you know, because there was the Dean Martin era where their working out was. Dark alcohol, a cigar, and like six wives. You know, not at the same time.

They weren't polygamists, to be clear. But, uh, And those guys lasted forever. But then uh the new generation is you gotta work out. You gotta keep Things go, especially as you get older. And of course, with technology and science and the right doctor, guys are looking jacked in their 40s and 50s where they weren't before.

Right. So a lot of it's science. Yes, with a prescription. Right. So watch Tyrus Saturday night at 10.

Yep. Yes, sir. And then on One Nation, 8 o'clock, that'll be me, if that's okay. No, that's fine. Yeah, because I realized I watered myself down by trying to catch you in the rating.

So, yeah, because they get a double dose of B this week. Listen to the show ad-free on Fox News Podcast Plus, on Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music with your Prime membership, or subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Mm.
