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 Kill Meet Show. I hope you had a fantastic weekend.
I hope you enjoyed the weather, whatever you were doing, playing sports, working, whatever has to happen. But I'm sure you were talking about politics because we've never seen anything quite like what we're going through now. And I'm so happy we get a chance to talk about it with the people that make the most sense and have the most insight. Sandra Smith's going to be joining us before she fresh off filling in for Ainsley and Fox and Friends and getting set for her show, America Reports. Bottom of the Arrow Congressman.
Ronnie Jackson, who's also an admiral and also a doctor, who's been treating the former President of the United States.
Meanwhile, special thanks to KSRO, 1350 a.m. in Santa Rosa, California. You are now, instead of waiting to delay us, you are now putting us on live. We appreciate it at 6 to 9 Pacific time.
So before we get to Sandra and start talking about the other news, let's get to the big three.
Now, with the stories you need to know, it's Brian's big three. Number three. We were supposed to get a face-to-face briefing with the Secret Service snipers whenever they arrived, and that never happened. I think that that was probably a pivotal point where I started thinking things were wrong because that never happened, and we had no communication with the Secret Service. You believe that?
That's the SWAT team. Assassination Investigation picks up momentum. As it becomes clear, cops, SWAT, and Secret Service, we're not talking. We're not communicating.
So many chances to stop this government, and they were all missed. More to come. Number two. We don't want escalation, for sure. I think it's important to note that That Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthi rebels were all proxies of Iran.
They don't operate without, you know, without Iran's consent. That is totally true, and Michael McCall knows it. He's of Texas and he's chairman of Home Enough of Foreign Affairs, I should say. Middle East madness, Hezbollah kills a dozen kids while they played soccer. A red line crossed, IDF scrambles to retaliate.
Can Israel fight and win a two-front war? We might have to find out. Number one. And some of what he and his running mate are saying, well, it's just plain weird. These guys are just weird.
That's who they are. Donald Trump and his weirdo running mate and the Republican apparatus behind them will regroup. That's what they were told in their talking points. Use the term weird. 99 days in county to August 7th, where Harris says she will pick a running mate and complete the matchup with Trump fans as Harris tries a new word called weird while pushing back on the massive effort to rewrite Kamala's past and present.
That's what the Trump teams do, and we'll discuss. Sandra, welcome to another medium. To another medium. I haven't. Seen you in a while.
I missed you. I know. I'm so amazed, by the way. Every time I come up here, I'm like, you just go from like full-on three-hours TV to three hours. It's fun, though, isn't it?
It's awesome. I mean, you've got your adrenaline going for sure. I do.
So, what I find most amazing about what's going on right now from here on in is that I'm used to people running on their track record and then saying, Yep, that's what I used to think, or people running on their new agenda and pretend they didn't have a background. Kamala Harris is running as. As somebody that she's never been. She's not running as somebody that didn't want to stop fracking or offshore drilling. She's not running for someone that wanted to get rid of private health insurance.
She's not running as somebody who wanted to decriminalize border crossings. She's not running as somebody that was part of California. Allow you to steal $999 of stuff without being prosecuted for $1,000 a crime. That's all from her. But she's running as a person that is now the breath of fresh air from a party that was almost looking to throw her overboard off the ticket just a couple of years ago.
I couldn't help but think while you were so eloquently saying that. That every time the president, President Biden, has been asked about Kamala Harris. Since all this change happened in the past couple of weeks, he talks about her past, not her past as VP to him in the White House, but her past as a prosecutor. As if there's nothing to tout. For her record in office.
Think about that. Everything he has said so far is: well, I hired her, or I brought her in as a VP or his running mate when he was running because of her track record in California as a DA in San Francisco, the AG in California. It was her track record as a prosecutor. And to this moment now, When you think, well, what is she going to run on? What can she tout as her accomplishments while vice president of the United States in the Biden administration?
She's running away from it. She's running away from anything that she was put in charge of, including the border. And now they want to say, well, she was never named the Borders Are. She was just put in place to address root causes to stop the flow from some of these countries.
Well, okay, how did that work? Right.
Okay.
So that didn't stop. Great point, Sandra.
So I'll take you at your word, even though that's challengeable. But you're saying, okay, you were challenging those triangle countries.
Well, they still surged. And when other countries started surging more, did you want to solve the problem and attract Cuba and Venezuela as they surge? Or do you want to say, this is only my job? It's your job to serve the country. Just so you know, for the record, she was the border czar.
Unless Axios was wrong when they say, when they wrote as a headline, Biden puts Harris in charge of the border crisis. Unless NBC News was wrong when they said Harris tasked with stemming the immigration, illegal immigration on the southern border. Unless the Washington Post was wrong when they wrote the column, Biden taps Harris to handle the border crisis. Add to that, the AP headline as well. And none of those headlines were ever disputed by the White House.
Right, until now.
So then they said, okay, the biggest disaster ever was the Afghanistan withdrawal. Sadly for Kamala Harris, she was asked, Were you in there when all big decisions were made? And she said, yes, I was in the room when he made the decision to withdraw.
So don't run from the worst decision ever. And then FoxNews.com has a story that she has met with President Biden 80 times.
So that means he witnessed what we all know to be true: the decline of a president who wasn't at the top of his game when he got the job in 2021. I think that question is still looming. Who knew what and when did they know it? Came to mind last week. We were covering the White House press briefing, and John Kirby stepped up to the microphone.
I said, Wow, I was with you in the studio, actually. This is the first time, you know, what did he know, and when did he know it? And he was asked point blank after that debate performance that brought all of this into question. He was asked, Have you heard concerns from any world leaders about About what we are seeing from this president. No, no, no concerns at all.
Well, quite clearly, that is not the case. When you saw the statements that came out from a lot of our allies, from our leaders, saying, oh, well, this is the responsible decision for the president to step down and let somebody else run.
Well, responsible, well, why? Because there was a decline in his mental acuity. Right.
Something that we all saw. It was downplayed by this White House until it wasn't.
So we all knew that he was the best. He was fine. He was going to win until that debate happened. I think the other sub-story is who pushed for that debate on the left?
Someone must have known that he couldn't perform. He's been locking up behind closed doors, locking up in meetings, and they thought, well, put him out there. And Donald Trump, I'm just saying this is this is. Uh What do they call it? When they say three-dimensional chess.
So then they said, Well, Donald Trump came out and said, I'll debate you anytime, anywhere.
So they go, What if we put it out there? You know, Trump's going to accept, which, by the way, I didn't know Trump was going to accept without negotiating. You're almost saying it would have been better for him if he hadn't, because this would have been pushed down the road. But someone had to play three-dimensional chess and say, if you put it out there, challenge him to a debate, he'll accept and he'll beat you so badly, you'll have to drop out. Did someone play that game?
So Chuck Schumer, when it became clear that the polls were dropping and his performance was subpar with Lester Holt, with Stephanopoulos, and with Ed Gordon of BET, and with all his and all the money drying up, Chuck Schumer went out and met with him one week before he ultimately decided to drop out. And basically, it's been reported that he said, you have to do it. Think about it for a week, but you got to drop out.
So he was asked that yesterday, cut 21. For history for the record. Did you in any way suggests to the President that he should leave the Presidential race on july thirteenth.
Well, first, let's look at President Biden's record. He's had one of the most amazing presidencies we've had in decades. I respect the amazing things he's done. We work together on many of them. But just for history, though, did you, what was your role, what was your intention with that meeting with him on July 13th?
Yeah, I'm not going to get into the specifics, but he can. President Biden will walk away from the presidency with his head held high.
Well, we so he didn't want to admit it. And these are the people touting save democracy, and they're hiding. The mental acuity, the mental decline of our president. Think about that for a second. But twice, he said.
In the most amazing presidencies, you hear this from a lot of Democrats right now. They tout what they say is one of the most amazing presidencies of our lifetime with one of the most amazing records. Never followed up with what will his legacy be. What was it? What was so amazing about that record?
I mean, look at the concern from the American voter about what is happening with immigration right now. I thought about it when we were talking immigration on the show earlier today, and Steve Ducey said, Well, that can be fact-checked when Democrats are coming out with this talking point that border crossings are down compared to Trump. Wait a second. People don't need to be told the numbers. They feel it.
I think about my hometown of Chicago and what they have dealt with there. And the city council meetings that have erupted in violence and anger because their soccer fields have been taken over, their police precincts have been overrun, their parks are crowded out. You can't even go for a stroll anymore in a city you pay sky high taxes to live in. Because the migrant crisis has taken over. People don't need the numbers.
They don't need to be told the numbers. They feel it. It's come to their town. It's come to their backyard.
So if the White House wants to tout their record on immigration and compared to the Trump years, everyone will tell you we are worse off now when it comes to the number of migrants. What about crime? Sandra, do you think anybody in Washington, D.C. thinks crime is down? No.
Now, they say violent crime is down. That's what they say. But in terms of actual crime around the cities, in robberies and burglaries and assaults, they're through the roof. And a lot of the times the numbers are down because they don't prosecute anymore.
So when you talk about arrests, they were down. When you talk about prosecutions, they're down because of these DAs.
So when Pete Booty Judge got on our channel and said, no one on Fox understands that crime is down, no, you could just ask anybody. And when they say illegal immigrants don't commit crime, tell that to Lakeland Riley and Rachel Morin and what we saw here in New York City.
So these people don't understand that we are ma. Our reality Goes beyond slogans and 30-second ads. It will trump it all. I was just thinking about the DC crime, and just a personal story on that. I was leaving the morning after the White House Correspondence Center, and at that point, we were so heavy in the coverage of crime because we haven't moved on to full 2024 coverage yet and beyond, obviously, what we have been dealt now.
But we were talking covering DC crime all the time. I wanted to get my car at 6 a.m. the next morning and leave my hotel, which is in a really nice area historically of D.C. And I looked at the guy at the front hotel and I said, This is okay for me to drive off. Like 6 a.m., the sun's coming up.
And he said, Um Just don't get out of your car. Not to get like gas. No, don't get out of your car. Like, I mean, the message was: you're not safe anywhere in this city. I mean, how can people live like that and think it's a good thing?
It's yeah, it's very interesting because you know, she had a surge because she can read a prompter, and she's 58. She is not 81. They think she's 59, right?
Okay, 59.
Okay.
Yes.
So she's 59. No one says that she doesn't have talent. No one says she's not smart. But when you look at her record and her ability to handle an interview, she's never excelled, never excelled, as you pointed out.
So this is a big question. This is an unscripted situation. Watch your TV, you know, flip the channels, whatever. Wherever you look, anytime that you have seen Kamala Harris publicly speak, I always forget I'm on your camera there. Anytime you hear her publicly speak or see her publicly, she is scripted.
She's on a teleprompter, and that's fine. Many, many, many leaders do, and that's okay. But she will be judged when she finally goes off script. And the only times that we really have seen that from this vice president, because she doesn't give a lot of media availability, It's in a panel format, right? She's sitting down with a moderator, and it's a casual situation.
That's when we're offered up the word salads, the laughter. Or think about the unscripted moment on the tarmac when she was asked, Why aren't you visiting the border? When she was appointed borders are and didn't dispute it then. She said, I've been to the border. I'll go to the border, right?
The Leicester Holt interview, right? That's why I haven't been to Europe. You haven't been to the border. Sandra Smith, a few more minutes when we get back, and then she is going to have an offer of legislation to make sure I never harass her like this again. Three hours and 30 minutes.
That's fun. Back in a moment. Covering this election year like no other. It's Brian Kilmead. 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. A radio show like no other. It's Brian Killmead.
Some of what he and his running mate are saying, well, it's just plain weird. I mean that's the box you put that in, right? These guys are just weird. That's who they are. So it ain't it isn't much else.
But we're not afraid of weird people. We are We're a little bit creeped out, but we're not afraid. It's not about her. Or her opponent really. No matter what kind of weird stuff they keep saying.
It's the weirdest thing. He'll go and like literally hug an American flag.
Now I love the flag, but I mean it's like weird what he does, right?
So that's the new thing, Sandra. It's so obvious the talking point, Sandra Smith, as you gave uh said to host America Reports. It's just weird. I mean, don't they know we know that They're reading off talking points. That's their goal to make Trump and Vance seem weird.
It's also their goal to tell people how they should feel and the way that they should see things. You know what is weird is record high inflation, terrorists coming over the border, failing foreign policy. And those are the things that the American people actually feel they don't have to be told to feel it. I don't know. Maybe they're maybe Republicans should watch out.
Maybe, you know, Republicans should probably be very careful not to underestimate. The power of Kamala Harris and the power of the Democrat machine right now. There's no doubt, Brian, there's enthusiasm there. I don't know, still in the honeymoon period or not. We'll see.
But they've definitely ginned up a lot of enthusiasm. Right.
The Wall Street Journal story says that the polls have closed, the lead has vanished. Yeah, temporarily. There's four or five points in most of these states in a good scenario with him collapsing at the debate. But this is the question. Can she handle now the attacks?
How is she going to respond to President Trump calling her out Saturday night? First time she had a chance to go and do this, Trump Vance, go and call her out.
Now, every interview he gives, he's not going to be talking Biden, he's going to be talking her. Is she going to be able to retort when he says she's just a liberal left-winger from the West Coast? I we carried live one of her first speeches she gave since since confirming her candidacy. And there was this Eye of the Tiger that came out when she directed her attacks on former President Donald Trump. If there's one thing that unites Democrat voters, it's beating Donald Trump, right?
And she I can see how she excites that group. But I would say this, if you want to go after him and keep saying convicted criminal, It goes back to the trial and the and the type of trial it was. And that trial was looked at by the average American enough to give him increase his poll ratings and have money flood into Donald Trump.
So, that also, watch yourself on the 34 felonies. It's all the same charge. And number two, it is being revisited now since the immunity decision came from the Supreme Court.
So, all of a sudden, if you're living off this 34 felonies and they go away. Because immunity, because this all the controversy happened while he was president. 'Cause the check was written while he was president. That might have gone into the wrong category or not, that might be a little bit of a problem. Yeah, we'll see what kind of headlines she grabs over the next couple of weeks, heading into the DNC, Veep Stakes, who she's going to choose.
I love Deuce on Lelouse today asking people on the street if they even recognize these people who are apparently on the short list. They're out there vetting candidates. We'll see where she goes with that. And I don't know. Does that garner more support in this moment?
We have yet to see. I think it's going to be Governor Shapiro. His liability, according to the Democrats, would be he's pro-Israel. And Senator Kelly from Arizona. I don't know his liability.
He's got a lot of strong, you've got a lot of assets. Ms. Kelly seems to make most sense, but they don't want to give up that seat, which is going to be hard to retain in Arizona. See you today at two. Yeah.
At one. Oh, one o'clock. America Reports. Thanks, Brian. The more you listen, the more you'll know.
It's Brian Killmead.
We were supposed to get a face-to-face briefing with the Secret Service snipers whenever they arrived, and that never happened. So I think that that was probably... a pivotal point where I started thinking things were wrong because That never happened, and we had no communication with the Secret Service. And that was a SWAT team, a SWAT team captain talking about what happened that day when President Trump was almost killed, and we lost a great man, great firefighter, by almost all accounts, and two were actually seriously wounded. And they were actually able to get out of the hospital just a couple of days ago.
Congressman Ronnie Jackson, a medical doctor and an admiral, who's been treating the president when he was shot in the ear and knows how close that we came to taking his life. Congressman, as we get more and more details about the lack of communication, about the pictures of the future assailant at the time, about how they had so many opportunities to stop him because they identified him early. What are your thoughts?
Well, yes, Brian, this was a basic failure. I mean, we can all see this.
Something very basic happened here. You know, I've spent a lot of time working with the Secret Service. I was 14 years at the White House, so I kind of know how these advances go and how these trips go. And the Secret Service detail that's with the President rolls in, and they rely on the site agent, the agent that's been assigned to the site to prepare the site. They're supposed to coordinate everything, and they're supposed to be passing information from their JOC or wherever they're collating that information from all the different law enforcement agencies.
And then the critical stuff, the stuff that's important, is supposed to be going to the Secret Service detail that's with the President, to the President's personal, his detail. And that obviously was not happening. And the other thing, too, is like, I don't know what the radio communications are like, but somebody from the Secret Service, you know, in their JOC, in their Joint Operations Center, should be monitoring every single frequency that's out there from every single law enforcement agency. And when there's stuff popping up that there's a potential threat out there, that stuff is passed immediately to the president's detail. That wasn't done as well.
And I also know from talking to his detail, because I was with them for the full week after the assassination attempt, talking to the that they requested counter sniper support and didn't get it until the absolute last moment. I think the counter snipers showed up literally like the night before, the day before. And so to hear the local law enforcement snipers say that they were supposed to have a meeting with the counter sniper team and it never materialized, I don't know, but it could be because they didn't get there in time to do everything that they're supposed to do before they set up for one of these events. But yeah, it was a basic fundamental failure on the part of the Secret Service. I hope that the acting director, Ron Rowe, who I know very well, will step up to the plate in this regard and not have the same posture as the Secret Serv as the director who was just dismissed or just resigned.
I hope he steps up to the plate and I hope he takes some responsibility on behalf of the service for this failure and tells us some of the stuff that went wrong and what they're going to do to fix it.
Well, for example, does this new guy, was he on the job? He was on the job. He was the current director's deputy director when it happened.
So I don't know what his role in some of these requests were. And obviously, the bigger question is: why were they not giving the resources to the Trump detail that the Trump detail has been asking for? I talked to the Trump detail probably eight or nine months ago. I asked them how things were going, unsolicited, long before any of this happened, obviously. They told me they said that everything's good except for they feel like they're being ostracized because they're on Trump's detail.
And, you know, and that was even at a professional level. They felt like they're being ostracized because they're on his detail. They said that they weren't getting the resources that they needed and that they were smaller than the other former details, which is crazy because President Bush and President Obama don't travel and get out near as much as Trump does. They're also not a candidate running, you know, not the nominee for the next election. And the threats for him are through the roof compared to the other two.
So he should have more resources, if anything, not less resources than the other former.
So these are all questions we have to get the answers to. In the Secret Service business, Trump's got a bad name with the Secret Service, I guess, with Secret Service management. Yes, not with the Secret Service in general, not with the bread and butter agents. It's much like the military, Brian. If you go out and you talk to the junior officers and the enlisted and everything, they love Trump.
They love what he stands for, and they love him as their commander-in-chief. It's much the same way in the Secret Service. The people that are out there doing the work are doing the job and they're doing it in an apolitical fashion. It's the leadership that gets in these positions where they end up kowtowing to the woke agenda and to the Trump derangement syndrome that the rest of the federal government suffers from. And I think that's part of what was going on here, Brian, too, because if you look back, we're going to find out, one of the things we're going to find out is that they were worried about a lot of stuff that they have no business being worried about.
They were worried about what color tie the agents wear. Like they couldn't wear red ties on Trump's detail because they thought that it looked like they were supporting the president.
So they forbid the detail from wearing red ties. All these different kinds of things, these woke policies. She'd come out and said, you know, she was worried about the gender distribution of the service, and she was going to make sure it was at a certain point no matter what. That was one of her problems. Their primary objective is to protect their protectee.
That is the number one thing that they're paid to do. Everything else is secondary to that, and that kind of stuff is way down the list. Absolutely. But I think they took their eye off the ball and they were focusing on stuff that they had no business focusing on. And I honestly think that sometimes when these requests came in to headquarters, the attitude was like, who cares?
It's Trump, right?
Well, Congressman, I know you're right because the Washington Post came out and backed up what Mike Waltz said on live television: said the Homeland Security Secretary has denied the request to increase the number of agents that are working the Trump team because it's got Milani in one place. You got the kid going to college now. You have their, they all feel like they're overworked. And then they said what the Homeland Security Secretary said it was totally irresponsible to say something like that. And then the Washington Post says they have four sources to say that Michael Waltz and what you say, Congressman Ronnie Jackson.
Jackson was 100% right.
So ABC interviewed the SWAT team. Here's what the reporter said he found out, Cut 37. And they'll take some of the failure. They say that they did fail that day because somebody was killed. The former president was shot at.
But they say they were not in charge of making decisions about their own movements. One of the snipers told me that if he had his drothers, he would not have been where he was positioned because he didn't think it was a very effective place to be. And now they are living with what they consider to be quite a heavy burden. They're willing to admit their failures, Martha, but they say this is not entirely on them. And that's where we're heading with an honest investigation.
These SWAT guys had to step out. And what about, I know you fixed it, and I know it's been backed up even by the New York Times, but the FBI director goes out of his way to say, well, I think it might not have been a bullet that hit Trump's ear. It might have been just shrapnel. Where did that come from? That was a completely inappropriate statement.
That was politically motivated. I mean, I'm convinced that was a politically motivated statement. All it did was give fuel to the fire for these morons like Keith Oberman and Joy Reed and these assassination deniers and these other idiots that are out there. He knew when he said that what the consequences of saying that were, right? And he had no business saying something like that.
And I think that the FBI already suffers from an unbelievable deficit. The American people don't trust or believe in the FBI anymore. We've seen them weaponize the FBI for years now, in particular against President Trump or anybody that supports President Trump. And for him to say something like this, it just dissolved what little credibility this man might have had as the director of the FBI. And I just had to call it out.
It was an absolutely ridiculous statement. And the president was obviously shocked. The entire world watched it on live TV. There are close-ups of his ear where you can see the deficit in his ear and the blood everywhere. I mean, if It's crazy that they would say something like that and think that they're going to get away with it.
Well, I think that there's a couple of things going on right now. The number one issue is immigration and the economy, depending on what poll is being done. On immigration, Trump trounces Kamala Harris and Joe Biden, obviously. On the economy, same thing. But they're trying to flip it and blame it on Republicans for, would they say, walking away from a bipartisan deal.
And they're also saying that numbers are down. right now at the border. In Texas, you guys have done a lot of work on your own to get the numbers down. What's the reality as you know it, Congressman?
Well, the reality is the number is down in part, like you said, because we've been working hard to shut the Texas border down. That's forced people to go elsewhere, California in particular. But the other thing is that they've created new creative ways in which they're counting these people. They're flying people in by the hundreds, by the thousands, and they're not counting them as border crossers, obviously, because they're flying them. But using the CBP app, if you register.
On the CBP app, and you come in with the CBP app, you're not counted, right? And that word has got out just like everything else. That's the new way that you can effectively cross the border and guarantee that you're going to get in. They're doing that. Brian, I talked to some people a few months ago who had a contract for some of the cameras on the border, and they told me that they were out looking at some of their equipment, and a lot of their cameras were turned off.
The cameras were turned off. And when they inquired about it, they were told that by the Border Patrol that they were instructed to turn the cameras off because they did not want to count the bodies that were crossing as getaways. They wanted to lower the getaway number, so they just turned the cameras off so that they don't see them and they don't have to count them. I mean, this is crazy. Right.
And very important for you to point out. If you're making your way to this country and you want to come here, now you can go on an app, fill it out, and then get a flight and land in our country.
So you don't need to cross the border or pay any of these fees.
So that's one way to get in. They go, oh, the border crosses are down.
Well, some people are logging on to the app and getting in that way. Why we're still flying them in with the criteria the way it is is crazy and what a burden it is to all these cities. But you need somebody to push back in real time because that's going to be the scenario. They say the numbers are now lower than they were when Trump took over. We know that's not possible.
Title 42 was in place when Trump left. That's right, Brian. And, you know, these people are still, for the most part, completely unvetted. We don't know who these people are. We don't know what kind of criminal background they have.
President Trump said it 100 times. I've heard him say it, you know, that there are countries that are dumping their prisons. Why would you not? If you had violent, you know, MS-13 gang members in your country and they were a problem for you and your country with crime, why would you not just send them over here and make them our problem? And they've been doing that.
And we're going to see the reality of this open border has not reared its ugly head yet, Brian. It's going to do so soon. And it's going to do so in the form of another terror attack in this country because we have hundreds and probably thousands of jihadi terrorists that have crossed this border. I was just watching TV a while ago and they caught a Palestinian terrorist who just crossed. I think it was in San Diego.
And the Border Patrol agent admitted that there are probably a lot of them getting through because they're overwhelmed and they really can't track them anymore. But we are going to have a big terrorist attack here. The crime in American cities is going to continue to take off and it's going to get worse and worse. And I promise you. If you put if the American people vote for Kamala Harris and she becomes our President, she is a massive defund the police person.
We all know this. She is going to continue to neuter our law enforcement while simultaneously allowing criminals to cross into our cities and wreak havoc. It is going to be a recipe for absolute disaster.
Well, I can't really argue with you. I think she'd be a terrible president. I thought she was a terrible candidate. Joe Biden pretended to be a moderate, but he has ruled as if he's a lefty.
So if you wanted to run, you can't even say I'm a moderate if you're Kamala Harris, because our whole Her whole track record streams lefty liberal from the West Coast. She was proud of it. She got blown out of the race because of it. Joe Biden gets the presidency because he's a moderate, but he acts like a lefty.
So, where is she going to go to grab her credentials? They're going to sell her with the majority of the American people. What could she possibly say?
Well, I'll tell you what she's going to do, Brian. She's going to go back to the mainstream media and the liberal press, and they are already in the process of trying to recreate her. They're going back and they are talking about stuff that she's done in the past and making it sound like it was completely different than what it was. They are trying their best to rebrand her. She's got the full force.
Of the media behind her, and that's going to be what they rely on. They're going to try to do that. That's really all they can do, because the reality is, like you said, if you really look at what she's done and what she's said, it's horrific. I mean, it's way worse than anything we've ever seen. I just want you to hear what Governor Ron DeSantis said yesterday about this, Cut 19.
And I think ultimately truth is going to prevail. But the one thing we do, I think, have to just acknowledge: Biden set the bar so low. It's like the soft bigotry of low expectations. He couldn't even deliver a sentence.
So now you take somebody like Harris, who's not exactly lighting the world on fire, but Biden makes her look like Socrates. Is he right? He's right. I mean, you know, and they finally came to the realization towards the end that there was literally absolutely no way that Biden could win this race. I mean, every across the board, it was showing that it was over.
If Biden stayed in, it was over. Trump was going to be president. And so now they're looking at her like, well, we have a chance now. How can we rebuild her? How can we regain some of the ground we lost?
So, yeah, I mean, I think that no matter what, they're in a better position than they were with Biden. I mean, he was, you couldn't get any worse as far as a candidate, you know, able to campaign and able to portray himself as a leader and as a commander-in-chief than Biden was.
So, yeah, I think that it's going to be harder for the Republicans from this point forward, but we have to continue to push. We have to do everything we can to make sure that they don't redefine her as something that she's not. We need to make sure that we label her as who she is, which is a radical, radical, progressive Democrat who represents every bad policy that this country has suffered from over the last three and a half years. We can do that, we can win this race, but we cannot be complacent on my side, on the Republican side, at all. And Congressman, what is it like dealing with Trump so up close and personal?
Again.
Well, you know, I felt pretty, it was great. You know, I never felt a more sense of helplessness more than I did the night or the afternoon he was shot, and I was in Texas, and he was there. I trained my whole career for that. And, of course, I'm good friends with him. And, you know, he was my, you know, I loved working for him.
And when that happened and I wasn't there, it was just an unbelievable sense of helplessness. But being there the following week, I was with him the entire week. I got there the night after the assassination and spent the whole week with him. And it was great to just kind of be back in the bubble and kind of feel like I was part of the team again, following him around and going to the meetings. And it was great.
I enjoyed it a lot. All right. Congressman Ronnie Jackson, thanks so much. Appreciate it. Thank you, Brian.
All right, 1-866-408-7669. I went a little along with that.
So much ground to cover. When we come back, we will go over what's happening with Israel. They were hit hard over the weekend, and their response is going to be substantial. We'll discuss it. Don't move.
Diving deep into today's top stories, it's Brian Kilmead. If you're interested in it, Brian's talking about it. You're with Brian Kilmead.
Well, I sign off on all four military sales, and I sign off on all the ones that have gone to Israel and also to Ukraine and talk. Taiwan. And so the fact is though that these shipments have been delayed Intentionally, now the four corners, that being the chair and ranking member of House Foreign Affairs and Senate Relations, we signed off on these weapons. And for some reason, the administration has withheld those.
So listen to the weapons that we are withholding from Israel, and they're in the middle of a two-front, maybe a possibly five-front war. Houthi rebels are bombing them. They are coming at them from Syria. They're also coming from Hezbollah in the north, and then Hamas in the south. As well as Iran has already tried to attack them once.
So think about all this. They've been stopped. 120. million millimeter tank ammunition, one hundred and twenty millimeter mortar ammunition, medium tactical vehicles, medium air-to-air missiles, F fifteen s, F one thirty five engines, J Dams, which are joint direct attack munitions, MK eighty fours, two thousand pound bombs, rifles from Israeli National Police Force, three hundred thirty eight medium guns and guided missile systems. Think about all were the Congress said take it, they greenlighted it in our name, and this administration is slowing it down because they don't want to have any civilian casualties, or they don't want Israel to win, or they're worried about the Michigan vote.
All of it's bad. What you do, and then you said to him, Why don't you finish this thing? Why is it dragging on so long? Because you don't let him fight. And by the way, Joe Biden knows nothing about the military.
Kamala Harris, less than zero. Our Secretary of Defense is invisible. His voice is never heard when he's not in the hospital or dealing with some type of illness. Wish him the best, but you got to speak up. We have a Secretary of State that just travels around and spends a third of his time condemning Israel, two-thirds of his time pretending as if he's allied to Israel.
Same thing with the National Security Advisor, Jake Sullivan. Think about this. Our number one ally, at war, you wanted to end it, you criticized constantly, and now you're holding back weapons. Who else do you do that to? Oh, Ukraine.
Why is that? Because this is an incompetent administration. They showed you that with the Afghanistan with Roll. Brian, kill me, Chill. From the Fox News Radio Studios in Midtown Manhattan, it's the fastest growing radio talk show.
Brian. In Kill Mead. Welcome to the show, everyone. I come to you from Midtown Manhattan, but heard around the country, around the world. New York Post, Michael Goodwin, is going to be here in a second, talking about this changing race in 2024.
Ambassador Danny Dannon, the former ambassador to the United Nations for Israel, will now be going back to the UN. He's coming back to New York. He's going to be with us to tell us about the horrific attack. In the Golan Heights, they killed 12 children all under 17 while they played soccer. Quick thank you.
KKFT and Reno, Nevada is airing us this week. We look forward. It's great to be back with them. They're 99.1 FM on talk radio. Also, special thanks to St.
Rosa, California. They have now airing us live from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. out west, 13:50 a.m. We appreciate that.
Before we go any further, just following all the news. President Biden is going down to LBJ's library to commemorate the anniversary of the passing of the civil rights legislation. He's trying to be relevant. He's also going to try to revolutionize the Supreme Court. None of it will pass, none of it will work.
So let's get to the big three.
Now, with the stories you need to know, it's Brian's big three. Number three. We were supposed to get a face-to-face briefing with the Secret Service snipers whenever they arrived, and that never happened. I think that that was probably a pivotal point where I started thinking things were wrong because that never happened, and we had no communication with the Secret Service. Assassination investigation, it's maddening.
It picks up momentum as it becomes clear: cops, SWAT, and the Secret Service were not talking to each other. Other.
So many chances to stop the gunman before he became an assassin, they were missed. More to come. Number two. We don't want escalation, for sure. I think it's important to note that That Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthi rebels were all proxies of Iran.
They don't operate without Iran's consent. Middle East madness. Hezbollah kills a dozen kids while they've played. A red line crossed. IDF scrambles to retaliate in the north while still holding things down in the south.
Can Israel fight a two-front war? Is this the time for an all-out war? I sense they're going to de-escalate but still respond. Number One.
Some of what he and his running mate are saying, well, it's just plain weird. These guys are just weird. That's who they are. Donald Trump and his weirdo running mate and the Republican apparatus behind them will regroup. Weirdo running mate, great hillbilly elegy story.
That's what they're trying to say. Not bad, not good, but weird. 99 days in counting to August 7th, where Harris says she'll pick a running mate and complete the matchup between Trump and Vance. As Harris tries a new word, as you just heard, weird, pushing back on the massive effort to rewrite Kamala's past and present is a man named Donald Trump. We will discuss.
So it's definitely going to be harder to win this one. This is a 59-year-old who can read a teleprompter, but her vulnerability is what she's done professionally. And that is as an attorney general out on the West Coast, as a senator in Washington, the most liberal ever, and about a candidate that fails spectacularly because of her views. Those views, did they dissipate? And for 80 times minimum, they say she met with President Biden.
At no time did she tell the American people what we all saw. He was failing. Failing epically. physically. Michael Goodwin joins us now from the New York Post.
Michael, things have radically changed since we talked last Sunday. President Biden, against his will, no doubt, says I'm out.
So how does Trump Change tactics. What should he be focusing on now? Good morning, Brian. Look, I I think that the um Yeah. Kamala Harris' bandwagon right now is very strong.
Democrats have somebody they can get behind, and she's getting a lot of donations. I'm sure some of them are under the table, but money matters, and she's rolling in it right now. I think n that there are some problems for Trump here. in how he goes after her. And Obviously, um you know the r the first black female president uh is is a dream for a lot of Democrats.
Um a lot of women, perhaps even two, uh will look at her through sympathetic eyes. And so These are two groups that Trump has had trouble with. But he's been making real progress, especially with black voters.
So there's some landmines here that he has to be wary of. But I think that the safe space for him and the richest vein is her record. uh not her race, not the Willie Brown mistress issues, anything that would make him look like he's treating her unfairly because she's black, because she's a woman. I think he needs to treat her fairly in terms of her record, which, as you say, is abysmal. and and sharply out of step.
with where Even moderate Democrats are, not to mention independent voters who tend to be even more moderate, more centrist. And so I think if if Trump is careful about this. He can thread that needle because there's a lot of space there. There's a lot of things to say about her that are on the record. That have been hidden because she was vice president.
But even her role as vice president is fair game in terms of the Biden-Harris policy. Policies that have made both of them the most unpopular president and vice president in modern times.
So there's lots to work with here, but Trump is going to have to discipline his own instincts. He's going to clearly have to, J.D. Vance is going to have to reel it in. And I mean, those statements he made about the catless women, I mean, that was three years ago. Fair enough, you know, add fair enough to pick it up.
But this idea that they're trying to isolate him as weird and all of that, that's something that they're both going to have to take seriously and not provide any more information. Stick to the record. Stick to the record. Stick to the record. So here he is Saturday night.
Tell me if you like this message. Cut 15.
So now we have a new victim to defeat, Lion. Kamala Harris. She would be the most radical far left extremist ever to occupy the White House times ten. There's never been a lunatic like this in the White House. She is a threat to democracy, a true threat to democracy.
She'll destroy our nation.
So how do you feel about that?
Well With with the except for with the exception of two words, lion and lunatic. I mean, I think it's fine. I think it's a fair game. But this habit of nicknaming people. Um it doesn't work anymore.
It doesn't work for people who need to be persuaded. If that would have persuaded them, he would be winning by 100% already over Biden.
So I don't know what it is. I mean, I almost feel sometimes, Brian, that Donald Trump is cowardly. captive To the most ardent followers of his who want to be entertained. By these nicknames, so they find it funny. It was funny seven years ago.
I mean, sl with low energy jab. I mean, that was an introduction to the American voter by Donald Trump. Here we are in his third presidential race. It's it's a it's a Joke, a trick that doesn't work anymore on the people he needs. I don't know why he can't let go of it.
It's almost like a security blanket for him.
Well, the race has definitely tightened up, and the honeymoon is definitely on, and they're relieved that they got rid of Joe Biden. They're not even counting the fact that nobody voted for this woman who's a vice president, and she got no votes last time when she ran in 2020. It was a disaster. But in Michigan, it's 49, 49 now. In Pennsylvania, it is 49.49.
In Minnesota, it is 52.46. Harris, Wisconsin, it's a one-point lead for Trump.
So everything is tightened up, and she's got the DNC coming up, which could easily be a disaster. But they'll have that moment where Barack Obama introduces her and Joe Biden gets the kind of applause as if he went out on his own. And they'll have a little bit of momentum leaving, but those protests for the Hamas militants could very well tarnish that. Let's see if they can get on top of it. And if he does, it'll show you that it was intentional to allow everybody else to wreck everything years before.
So we'll see what happens. When it comes to the When it comes to the record of Kamala Harris, I'm amazed what's going on. They're trying to get rid of that poll that showed she's the most liberal senator in 2019. They're trying to bury that on the Internet. They're trying to pretend she wasn't the Borders Are.
When we have ABC, NBC, Fox, Axios, Washington Post, New York Times all listing her as The Borders Are.
So, they don't want to lift that off immigration, and they want to say that the economy is better under Biden. And he was a great president. Problem is, America doesn't think the economy is better under Biden. He was he's got thirty eight percent approval rating. I'm pretty sure Lincoln still good beats him, and Washington will still edge him out.
So There's a lot of rewriting of history in real time. Absolutely. And it's just a shame shameful media. Doing this. I mean, they're the ones who now drove Biden out of the race.
Not because they were worried about America being governed by a blithering idiot, they drove by another race when the polls said he couldn't win after the debate. They had no concerns before that, and Harris had no concerns. Brian, there's this wonderful clip of her after the Robert Hurr report. How when Robert Hurr says he's a forgetful old man with a poor memory, that's why he can't go on trial, and she says that was gratuitous, it's not true, I see him all the time, he's fine, he's good, he's sharp, you know, all of that BS.
So there's lots to run on there for Donald Trump. He shouldn't expect the media help at this point. And he has to, I think, as I say, stay on target. And the target are the facts and the policies and the record. And if he does that, I think he can recapture that momentum that he had.
But he won't get it by sinking down to a level that just is beneath where the independent voters think. Here is so the whole thing, there's another subplot, and that's how Biden was ousted. And I do believe they're going to write books about this: how the Democratic Party rose up and took a sitting president and told him he can't run again. While he was telling us the day before he's not going anywhere, he's going to follow through, does three network interviews, does four rallies in so many days, makes mistakes throughout, but still pulls it off, including a press conference. And then, with one day off, he gets COVID.
They tell him, you got to go, and he goes. And he doesn't appear on camera for two or three days. And now we think he's a great man. He's patriotic. He steps aside for the country.
We're not idiots. And Governor Westmore kind of admits that he lied to us. Listen to this: Cut 22.
Well, you know, I I I had private conversations with the with the President, and I'm a big believer that when you care about somebody, you tell them the truth. And I had private conversations where I was telling the President the truth. I also know that the President deserved better than people running around and going into public and demanding that the President of the United States step down.
So he's telling him privately to get out. He's telling you and I he's fine. It's okay to lie, Governor Westmore. It's okay just to not do what other people, like Dean Phillips did, and said this guy can't run anymore. Are you kidding?
You know, Brian, the world changed eight years ago when Donald Trump first came down that escalator. And it gave the media I mean, there's this article that I've written about in the summer of 16 in the New York Times, a column by a guy named Jim Rutenberg, who said, how do you cover Donald Trump as a journalist if you think he's a racist? a demagogue and shouldn't be anywhere near the nuclear codes. And the editor of the New York Times later said, that article for me clarified my thinking.
Now we just say it straight. straight all the time, meaning we call them a liar, we call them a racist. The media changed the rules because of Donald Trump. And it's because of Donald Trump that the Democrats feel free to lie to you about Joe Biden's condition. Anything to defeat Donald Trump is within the rules according to the Trump haters, which includes, of course, 95% of the media.
And it includes every Democratic politician. There are no rules when Donald Trump is involved. That's their view. Look how Google is censoring searches for his assassination attempt. We don't even talk about that.
A president was almost assassinated, and it's gone. It's gone from the conversation. I mean, even Joe Biden, rolled out of office by his own party because they thought he could lose to Donald Trump. And that's not even a topic anymore. It's just Kamala, Kamala, Kamala.
We live in amazing times. The last month, we have seen events. We have never seen before in combination. But they're all forgotten now because it's inconvenient for the media and the Democratic handbook. And by the way, what Michael Goodwin's talking about is Elon Musk, to my attention, he tweeted out: wow, Google has a search ban for President Donald Trump.
Election interference question mark.
So now they're saying what you're saying too is they're not able to they're not able to queue up the assassination or click on images because they want to make sure this guy doesn't look heroic. And he does the whole idea. that he wasn't really shot. Right? I mean that that was like some some Hothouse nut job cooked up by MSNBC and others glommed onto it.
I mean, it's just amazing what the media will do because they hate Donald Trump. They didn't love Joe Biden. They never even liked Joe Biden, but they hate Donald Trump. And so everything has to be seen through that prism. All right.
Michael, look forward to your next column. It's going to be exciting. And like I said, stop with the lunatic. I think you're 100% right. Stop calling her a bum.
No one knows what that means. Very simple. Here's the track record. Here's what she wants to do. Here's what she stands for.
Here's what the administration did. You don't want that. I know you don't.
So let's uh vote my way. Not a bum, not a lunatic. You don't want to alienate anyone like an independent or undecided. Michael Goodwin, thanks so much. It's my pleasure, bro.
Thank you. You can write me at BrianKilme.com. Tell me what you think. Also, we are following the other breaking stories about the retaliations that's expected with Israel in Beirut, perhaps. That's the home of Hezbollah.
But the real home of the Bank of Hezbollah is Iran. Are they going to get involved? Brian Kill Meat Show. Here are the ins and outs of the 2024 election right here. The Brian Kill Meat Show.
Radio that makes you think. This is the Brian Kill Me Joe. Donald Trump and his weirdo running mate and the Republican apparatus behind them will regroup. They will throw everything. It's going to be gross, misogynistic, sexist, racist, all of the things.
Harris herself conceded yesterday that she is the underdog in this race, and that's how everybody should treat it. Really?
So did Barack Obama say that, the underdog in this race. That's the mindset.
So just watch for it. They got the whole machine of rallying around Kamala Harris. Instead of just rallying around a candidate that wins, they're trying to shape a candidate who already won. And they're going to try to make the programs and her beliefs something that you want to deal with.
So she's going to come out and say, This is what I'm going to do for immigration. This is what I'm going to do for the military. This is what I'm going to do for the economy. And it's got to be all brand new, even though we've seen it for three and a half years and we watched her try to run for president and fail spectacularly. The only person who's been more inept in this administration is another person she's considering as a running mate, Pete Buttigiege.
I mean, there's transportation. Has it been worse? I mean, in every aspect it's worse.
Some of it he's directly responsible for.
Some of it he didn't get ahead of enough. Other times he'd be just slow to react, and especially this, how he got off. By the way, we were hacked and it stopped the oil pipeline and stopped transportation, stopped the trains.
So this is going to be interesting. I think Donald Trump has got to be at his disciplined best. You have a lot to work with on her past actions and beliefs. Challenge her to walk it back or embrace it. But to but to ignore it should not be an option.
Brian Kilni, not weird, and happy to be here. When we come back, we'll be joined by Danny Dannon, Israel's ambassador to the United Nations, again. Breaking news, unique opinions. Hear it all on the Brian Kill Me Joe. We don't want escalation, for sure.
I think it's important to note that. That Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthi rebels were all proxies of Iran. They're sort of like the tentacles of the head of the snake, if you will. And so they don't operate without, you know, without Iran's consent. And so, what I think is happening, to be honest with you, as they Debate the ceasefire.
Iran doesn't want Normalization, and that is the process with Saudi Arabia and Israel that they were entering into prior to October the seventh. This is a very important point. Once Iran saw this, I think that culminated in October the seventh.
So it's not in their interest to have any ceasefire agreement. They want Sinoir to stay in power.
So if they leave him out there much longer, he should be dead. And he is calling the shots. Ambassador Danny Dannon joins us now. He's the soon to be the next Ambassador to the United Nations, Real Ambassador to the United Nations. He had that job before.
He leaves the Knesset. Ambassador, welcome back. Thank you for having me again, Brian. Uh attacking at this point attacking Israel. Iran for a year said very clearly that the end goal is to destroy Israel.
They published a plan to do it by twenty forty. But as we can see, they are doing it are trying to do it much sooner.
So they are building a belt of fire, as they described it, around Israel. And we saw what happened on october seventh. We saw that on October 8th, Hezbollah joined the fight against Israel, the Hudis from Yemen.
So all those proxies, it's actually Iran fighting against Israel, not directly. But I I think we will have to be prepared to to fight also directly with Iran that have attacked us on air twins fourteen.
So uh it's only a matter of time. I think there will be a full confrontation uh and uh that's something we are getting ready for. Are they ready? Are they ready to confront you? Do you think that they feel as though they could take you guys on in Hezbollah in the north, in Lebanon?
Well, when you look at the action of their proxies, you you understand that they're building the force in order to attack us. It's not to deter and not to do anything else. You know, you look at his ballad today, the old tens of thousands of rockets and the the aim only well. We saw what happened only this last weekend when a when a missile flew into a civilian community on the Koran Heights and massacred twelve innocent boys and girls were playing soccer.
So that's what they want to do, to terrorize our communities, our civilian population, but they have to take into consideration that we have a strong military and and they will feel the might of the IDF once they will push it. And I think in the next few days they would see that we are retaliating for that vicious attack.
So they talk about a red line, maybe whatever that red line is. Has this attack horrific enough to maybe go past that red line?
Well, you know, we have said it in many occasions that we have no intention to to escalate. You know, ask yourself why I wanna att why I wanna attacking Israel. And the only reason officially, and they said it in many speeches, is to show sympathy with Hamas.
So th that's the reason they are attacking us. We on the other hand, we are a peaceful nation. We we have no disputes with Lebanon, uh but at the same time we we will have to fight back. They learned the You break it up a little bit. I want you to hear a little bit more about how it's being covered and what the worry is.
There's a lot of anti-Israeli attitude, the anti-Netanyahu belief, even though he gave a fantastic speech in front of a joint session, a joint meeting of Congress, blown off by Vice President Kamala Harris, and by many senators, including Chris Van Hollen. Listen to this anti-Netanyahu sentiment, cut 33. I think Prime Minister Netanyahu accomplished his goal of using Congress as a prop to. Boost his support in Israel, especially among his right-wing extremists. If you saw the people who gave two thumbs up to his speech, they were Ben Gavir and Smotrich.
These are very right-wing extremists. These are very right-wing extremists. Do you think that you're being categorized correctly, the government that you support? Absolutely not. I think the Prime Minister's speech was remarkable, a very strong speech.
He spoke to the American people, and I can tell you that many people reacted to that speech. They realized that we are fighting the war of America, we are fighting the enemies of the United States, and our victory will be the victory of the American people. You know, I saw a demonstration while the Prime Minister spoke outside of the Of the Capitol Hill, those were not Americans, you know, those who are burning the American flag and vandalizing monuments. I know that 99% of people here in the US. Stand with Israel, support Israel.
They are praying like us every day that the hostages will come back home to their families.
So that's what the Prime Minister stressed in his speech. And I think you did an excellent job. Yeah, uh were you surprised about the riots that were taking place in Union S Union Square, and how did that resonate with the Israeli people? Where do we I was shocked. We all understand the importance of free speech, but what we saw there was not a protest, it was a riot.
You know, uh I I don't know the legality of burning a flag in the US, but uh for sure I know it's not legal to vandalize uh national monuments.
So those people should be in in jail and should be persecuted. And it's not the first time we are seeing violence under the cover of a protest.
So you you have to make a clear distinction between the right to protest uh and and acts of violence. And what we saw uh last week was the act of violence.
So what's going to happen? What is a measured response? When do you think we can expect it, roughly?
So I I think that in the next few days the Israel will retaliate against Hezbollah. It will be swift, harsh and painful. We are We have a few options, and the Prime Minister, Minister of Defense, the Cabinet. I've already chose the the target and in the next few days Since Balawood Phillips. How much did it hurt?
Or how much did it damage the peace talks to have Kamal Harris talk so negatively about Israel and how they need to do the prisoner swap and be more careful when it comes to bombing civilians? You know what I mean I I meet many ambassadors uh here in in New York now when I'm coming back to my previous position and I tell them you cannot call for a ceasefire uh and then say and then after the hostages will come back. It doesn't work that way. You know, if you want a ceasefire, release the hostages immediately. And then you will have a ceasefire.
But uh and some people believe that you know it's only uh about putting pressure on Israel. And if that's not the case, we haven't started this war. We have no intention to to stay in Gaza. But at the same time, we are not going to end until we're bringing our boys and girls back home. We have 115 hostages.
Still in the hands of Hamas. And you got about, they have about 8,000 fighters left, including their upper brass, Sinoir, led by Sinoir, a former prisoner that got brain cancer in prison. You guys sent your best surgeon. You save his life. He gets out, and this is what he does to thank you.
He gives you October 7th, and then trying to win the PR war by putting Palestinian civilians in the way of his headquarters and in the way of his men. It's absolutely diabolical and evil. Uh indeed he is hiding, but we will get to him. We found uh number two, Mohammad. We will find him Um so he he can continue to hide, but uh at the end of this wall he will not be alive.
I hope not. I hope you are 100% right, and I do believe you'll do that. I'm just looking at the list of weapon systems that you've been denied: 120 millimeter tank ammo, 120 milli millimeter motor ammo, medium tactical vehicles, medium air to air missiles, F 15s, F 35 engines, J dams. MK eighty four's rifles. Machine guns, guided missile systems.
These are all the things that Congress said, give it to Israel, and the administration says you're not getting it. This has to be beyond frustrating.
Well, I cannot go into details, Brian, but I will tell you that. You know, the sooner Yeah. The sooner Yeah, the sooner we get the war over, the sooner peace comes back in. Everyone should realize that by holding off on weapons. You're not stopping the war.
You're elongating the war. After they screwed up Ukraine, you'd think they would know better when it comes to Israel, but they are extremely slow learners. Thanks so much, Ambassador Danny Dannon. It'll be the first of many interviews, being that you're going to be just across town in New York City at the UN. When we come back, I'll be able to get your calls.
Or if you want to write me, BrianKillMe.com. And by the way, thanks to everybody who came out in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania. We had a fantastic time in the theater, in the auditorium, the Shelton Theater. It was great to see everybody. We introduced the t-shirt gun, the games do count.
Of course, the games do count. It's how you play the game. All the history books were available, including my phrase that's capturing the imagination of America, and that's stay within yourself. Also available online. Listen, we'll be back in a moment.
Listen to the Brian Killmeat show. Politics, current events, and news that affects you. Brian's got a lot more to say. Stay with Brian Kilmead. The fastest three hours in radio.
You're with Brian Kilmead.
No, I don't have any concerns over JD directly. I don't think those comments were helpful. Again, stick to issues. Those are personal attacks that can alienate a huge part of that independent voter bloc that you need. But if you stick to issues, stick to what's driving anxiety.
People have anxiety right now because they can't pay their bills. They have anxiety because they don't feel safe in their homes or in their communities. Those are the things that will drive them to go make a vote for Trump in November. And if you stick on those issues, stay away from the insults. I think, look, he's a younger guy.
I think this is all very, very new to him. I mean, he's only been in Washington 18 months. He's an outsider himself. I think he's surrounding himself, obviously, with a lot of the folks in the campaign that kind of feel an energy off of those personal attacks. But that ain't what's going to drive the vote.
That is Governor Chris Sununu, who said, Hey, listen, I love Trump. He had a great four years. It was time to move on.
Well, I like Mark Tees into a little bit, but then Donald Trump has staying power. He's showing different skills. He's more popular than ever, but he thinks that there's got to be special There's got to be a special way to attack a female. Make it all about issues and don't make it personal. Don't alienate people who don't pay attention that you don't mean it personally.
Don't even let it up to deliberation. And when it comes to J.D. Vance, what Governor Sununu was confronted with something I don't think he was familiar with. And three years ago, J.D. Vance, now the vice presidential nominee, was asked about Democrats and people like AOC who come out and say, I'm not having kids, or I don't think I'm going to have kids because of climate change.
And he came out and made a statement essentially: you know, these people who live alone with just their cats don't have a stake in America's future. Controversial statement to begin with. People took in it wrong, and Democrats seen it as an opportunity. To go ahead and say he's putting down people that don't have kids. He's not.
He was trying to clarify and make it and make it and explain himself.
So. He hopped out with Trey Gowdy last night. And to explain himself. And this is what he said, cut five. The left has increasingly become explicitly anti-child and anti-family.
They've encouraged young families not to have children at all because of concerns over climate change. They've suggested that people who do have children are somehow being selfish when I think being a parent is actually the most selfless thing that you can do. And again, really does transform your perspective.
So this is not a criticism, it was never a criticism, Trey, of everybody without children. That is a lie of the left. And Trey Gatty had a brilliant open where he said George Washington never had kids. The two nuns that he helped and met in an airport the other day couldn't have been more patriotic. Obviously, they don't have kids.
So It was something that needed to be clarified. But the one thing they have to do, and I hope they did in the background, I think J.D. Vance is extremely intelligent. Only been in the political fray for a year and a half. But He's got experience in front of the camera.
He's been through a lot. He's actually been to war, Ivy League Education, promoted a movie, wrote a book, did a ton of interviews on the book tour, but has evolved as a politician. That's what he wanted to do after starting a business.
So he's learning a lot of this, but I just hope they listen to a lot of these podcasts to get ahead of it before they're attacked about it.
So, even if you say, I'm not saying someone has to play the perfect game and do the perfect ninja view, I mean, can you imagine if I ran for office? I've been on the air six hours a day for the last 15 years, three hours a day for the last 26 years. And then all the times I did the five did outnumbered, did the eight o'clock show, the 10 o'clock show. How many did outnumber? I did outnumber probably more than anybody else.
At some point, I said some things that wouldn't help me get elected. I mean, the same thing with J.D. Vance, done a ton of podcasts, a ton of interviews. He had a tough race against Tim Ryan, did a lot of publicity. He's got to go look at that and see what else he said.
Have a ton of people go through all of these podcasts with Charlie Kirk. The Tucker Carlson. Uh Joe Rogan. Whatever he did. Just uh just know it and and own it or explain it.
I mean, the one thing he did, he made it clear. He didn't like Donald Trump. He said, this guy's crazy. I've been listening to the media. I've seen the way he's talking.
You know, he's a terribly, terrible candidate. He'll never get elected. He gets elected, he'll be a terrible president. And he said, wait a second, this guy's a really good president.
Now that I'm running for office, I like his policies. And now that I fought in a war, I do like his stance on. on foreign policy. And I do like his stance on Iran. I do see them as the problem.
And next thing you know, he's the perfect running mate for him after Donald Trump showed up and made sure he got across the finish line last time. But the thing they're trying they're trying to do is get this one word out. Yeah, they want to say. Donald Trump's a threat to democracy. It doesn't work.
It doesn't work. And they're realizing it now. And guess who told them to drop it? Axelrod and James Garville. They tried to arrest him, it didn't work.
Now they're trying this. And it's weird. Literally, the word is weird. Cut four. Donald Trump and his weirdo running mate and the Republican apparatus behind them will regroup.
They will throw everything. It's going to be gross, misogynistic, sexist, racist, all of the things. Harris herself conceded yesterday that she is the underdog in this race, and that's how everybody should treat it. Right, that's what everybody wants. Two things: use the word weird, use the word underdog.
So they had people rallying for the underdog, who is the sitting vice president. As opposed to a guy that had to f uh fend off four indictments. and come all the way back. After losing in 2020.
So they used weird constantly. Tim Waltz used it yesterday as well, the governor there. Governor Shapiro used it. We all know it. We saw the talking points about Kamala Harris not really being the Border Czar.
They literally were talking points. I think Peter Ducey is the one who got the picture of him that everyone got. And they're not even good at hiding it. You know, Republicans, they'll get the spirit of it. For example, Before I did the Sunday show, I did George Stephanopoulos' show once, and I did Fox News Sunday two or three times.
I got a call from the Trump people, and they just said, Do you need clarification on anything? Do you need anything about immigration or stance? We'll just give you an idea because we just want to give you our version of it because we know people watch Fox News Sunday. It's a network show. And we'll just give you our version of the three or four biggest topics.
I appreciate that. But I'm not reading from them. They didn't tell me what to say. They told me their side of it.
So that's different. You know, I I just can't believe these guys just repeat verbatim and they don't think that people listen more than one hour a day. You know, we're not just looking at the local news and the national news. We're looking at twenty-four hour news. People are getting it on their phones and getting clips on Instagram.
Getting clips on Facebook. They're watching sadly on TikTok, too.
So When you see the leading contenders to be the vice presidential running mate with Kamala Harris. And they're all saying the same thing. Then it's like they're saying nothing. Because people don't like to be manipulated. There's a finalist The finalists are Bashir, Shapiro, And um Senator Um the senator from downtown Yeah, Senator Uh, Senator John Kelly.
He's got a twin brother. It's gonna be Cali. From high atop Fox News headquarters in New York City, always seeking solutions, never sowing division. It's Brian Kilmead. Hi, everyone.
Welcome. Brian Kill Me Show here. I'll be just watching some of the Olympics. It's amazing. I guess the Filipino team was not ready.
to do the diving competition. I recommend everybody here take a look at it. Um We're going to be with Harris Farkner in about 15 minutes. We'll be able to do a simulcast. It'll be great.
Batyunger Sargon from Newsweek is also going to be here in studio. Also, got a best-selling book out. Also, special thanks to Santa Rosa. They are going to start airing our show live between 6 and 9, and Reno, Nevada is going to be airing us this week at 99.1 FM Talk Radio.
So that's going to be great. We have a lot to discuss this hour, too, because there's a lot of breaking news. We're also watching President Biden, desperate to be relevant, has gone to Austin, Texas, where he was supposed to go weeks ago. He was supposed to go on Monday. But then, when he found out that he was told to bow out of the reelection, he put it off for a week.
And this will mark the celebration of the Civil Rights Act that LBJ signed into law. But more importantly, he's going to use this opportunity to attack the Supreme Court and put in guidelines with an equal branch of justice. I'm pretty sure you can't do that. Imagine the president just decides: you know what? Congress has way too much leverage.
I think I'm going to go legislate something there. If he wants to do it, you could go do it. It's no problem, but you just got to get two-thirds of Congress to go along with it. And they want to have some ethics rules in there. They want term limits on Supreme Court justices.
And they want a rule that says presidential immunity should not transfer to presidents. Too bad the Supreme Court ruled that way. They say what the Supreme Court's doing now is not normal. No, it's called a court. For the first time, it's not a liberal court.
It's a conservative court calling balls and strikes. There are more. Justices appointed by conservatives than there are from Liberals. But if you see some of these decisions now, it's not breaking on party lines.
So I just think it's interesting that he's going to do this.
Now, nothing he says is going to be relevant. It's going to be him sounding off and give people something to run on. Here's what he's going to say: term limits. binding code of conduct for Supreme Court, no immunity of crimes for a former President.
So these are the things that he's going to bring up now, and he wrote an op ed to go along with it, which I'm sure he did not write.
So I'm not I'm pretty sure that there's nobody who's going to go along with this.
So Lindsey Graham was asked about it. On by Rober Coston, faced the nation. And here's what he said. Cut forty-three. What about term limits for Supreme Court justices?
Put aside the issue of packing or adding justices. No.
No, no, no, no. They didn't complain about any of this when the court was pumping out opinions they liked. Only when we brought constitutional balance back from having a conservative court was the court a threat to the country. What's been a threat to the country is an out-of-control liberal court issuing opinions that. basically take over every phase of American life based on nine people's judgment.
So this Roberts Court has brought constitutional balance back to the country. And one of the issues on the ballot in twenty twenty four is what kind of court do you want? If you left it up to Elizabeth Warren to pick the court, you'd have the most liberal court in the history of the world. There's no doubt about it. And that's what she wants.
She weighed in, but I just can't even tolerate listening to her talk. She talks to us like we're a bunch of four-year-olds and she's reading a children's book to us. And she is lethal. But she's got it together. And I believe she's as old as Joe Biden, but she's still serving in the Senate because Massachusetts has no standards in many respects when it comes to liberal senators, although maybe it reflects how they feel.
But when you talk about what's happening with the Supreme Court, Clarence Thomas is going to be up soon.
Sotomayor is not healthy. I wish her better. She's younger, but she's not healthy. And there's some pressure on her to resign while there has a Democratic president. But that's also what's at stake.
Do you want Clarence Thomas replaced by a liberal Supreme Court justice? And do you want Sotomayor replaced by a conservative Supreme Court justice?
So these are some of the things that you're voting on come November. And this is why I think it's important for Donald Trump to get a strategy to go against a 59-year-old woman as opposed to an 81-year-old man who acts like he was 91. What I find absolutely amazing is the people that are saluting. President Biden for stepping aside, comparing him to George Washington. Great leaders in our past, who knew when it was when.
You know he was forced out. You know there's going to be books written about how he was forced out behind the scenes. Do you know that all the. Fundraising had dried up, and People started speaking out against him. Dozens have spoken up in the Senate.
Over 100 spoke up, I believe, in the House. Then you had people like Senator Tester coming up, speaking up, Joe Manchin going on the Sunday show, saying he should step aside. People talking about how he's failed. Anchors, the normally friendly networks, talking about all the times in which he's not showing up. Then you get revealed that he wants to work less and tells people behind closed doors he's promising to get more rest and work less.
That story never would have leaked, but everything leaked because his own staff started turning on him. And now you want to say what a track record he had. What track record? The American people don't think he had a great track record. Why?
Look at his approval rating. You said he's the most successful president ever. Yeah, he passed legislation. He passed the Inflation Reduction Act, which doesn't reduce inflation. He passed the rescue package that even Larry Summers says we did not need.
They did an infrastructure deal where we have eight terminals built and there's no rural internet, which he promised to produce.
So the production and the use of the money is under question. And even the Chip Acts has so many DEI strings attached to it, we have yet to get it really off the ground as we try to bring chip manufacturing back to the U.S. There's a complicated factor here, and it's called his actual track record as opposed to what people are saying is the most successful presidency ever. But all this spin, you gotta see through it. If you see through it and still think I want more of this, good, go ahead and vote that way.
But if you see the facts, I'm pretty sure you're not gonna wanna do it. And the polls say you won't. The talk show that's getting you talking. You're with Brian Kilmead.
Hi, everybody. In a little while, we're going to go do a simulcast with Harris Barkner. We'll take it right to the bottom of the hour. Then we're welcome in Batiyanger Sargon. We're following a few stories, President of the United States.
We're going to talk about this shortly. is going to be in Texas. Uh to celebrate the Signing of the civil rights reform, and also he's going to be talking about Supreme Court justice reform. The other thing we're looking at is the strategies now from the Trump campaign, Trump Vance, as well as. Kamal Harrison, whoever And the finalists, the VP stakes, always get some intrigue.
We'll see where we go from there. Almost everyone believes it's going to be a white male. It's going to be Tim Waltz of Minnesota, who is an epic fail, who got re-elected in a very liberal state that might be looking at Donald Trump. In fact, Trump was winning in Minnesota, but Kamala Harris seems to be more popular there right now. But Waltz is somebody big into social spending, social engineering, and great presence.
Give him credit for his National Guard service. But that or Shapiro. Brian, kill me to- Fox and Friends, radio host, simulcasting with me, and he'll welcome his listeners to join us. Let's start here, Brian. Good to have you.
President Biden claims he wants to reform the U.S. Supreme Court.
Now, actually, he wants big changes. How that might impact the U.S. Constitution. And oh, by the way, you don't get a say in any of this, American people. Biden has had to speak later today about this issue in Texas.
He already outlined them in Washington in the Washington Post. He wrote an op-ed, it's out. Titled My Plan to Reform the Supreme Court and Ensure No President is above the law. Oh, there's so much we could say about that, but it's only an hour show about the law. Joe Biden, who got a pass because he's a nice elderly old old man with.
No memory. The plan, a constitutional amendment to limit presidential immunity for crimes committed in office. That's what he wants to target. Term limits for the justices and a binding code of conduct. The court's current ethics code is voluntary.
A constitutional law attorney says this about it all. It certainly shows the position of the Democrat Party. They don't like the outcome of the court's ruling, so they want to change the rules here. It's very ironic coming from a party talking about stealing democracy that they are going forward with such a radical talking point here. Brian Kilmead, this is really interesting because they have changed the vocabulary on this whole thing.
A reform is not completely changing something, and this would do what? This would change. No doubt about it. They would provide ethics rules that I guess the President and Congress would tell the Supreme Court to abide by, equal branch of justice. I don't think so.
Then they're going to give term limits. You don't want to be too old, especially you don't want to be too conservative or too liberal. Just wait for them out. When's their retirement age? Right now, it's supposed to be lifetime.
What do those founding fathers know? And then they're going to. What's the other thing they want to do? They want to have a. They want to make sure immunity does not transfer over to the former and current President of the United States now and in the future.
None of this is going to fly. Think about this. If you're a Senator Tester and you try to convince a bunch of Republicans in your state to give you another six years in office, you have to pretend at least for a few months that you are conservative or somewhat moderate, even though he always votes liberal. He's not going to vote for this. Nobody in a Battleground State is going to vote for this.
And also, you have a situation where in the Senate it's not going to pass. In the House, it's not going to pass. This is an exercise and a statement to keep the President busy. This is an exercise to give them something to run on down ballot. Should Kamala Harris not help them out at the top of the ticket as Joe Biden was crushing them with his polling?
I mean, I think that's pretty obvious now. I don't think they can really get done anything moving forward. He's lame duck, Biden, and that's being generous. Harris, I would add one other thing. He keeps on putting down the Supreme Court, an institution.
Can you imagine the Supreme Court was putting out statements putting down the president because he's too liberal, or because he's failed on the border, or because he left Afghanistan? You'd be outraged. Everybody would go, what's going on with the Supreme Court? Don't they have to stay in their life? Every day he wants us to doubt our institutions, and he blames Trump for that.
But I mean remember, he wants student bail reform. As he calls it, it's a change. He wants to pay off billions in loans that's going to cost us, it's going to cause our. Debt to go up exponentially in this country. And he wants to do that.
And the U.S. Supreme Court said no. And so, of course, he's going to act this way. He wants the U. S.
Supreme Court to capitulate to him, and he's willing to disrespect the court by exactly what you're saying, Brian, going against them verbally, but now with action. He's already done it. He doesn't respect the court. The way you do it traditionally is you do what happened in 2016. Hillary Clinton says, Let me win, and I'll appoint a Supreme Court justice that Democrats would approve.
Trump says, You let me win, I'll put a Supreme Court justice here. And then it mobilized Republicans to get to the polls, and you got Gorsuch, and you got Trump for four years.
Now you could say, Sotomayor is not healthy. I wish he was felt better, but people are worried about her. And the U.F. Justice Clarence Thomas is somebody else not getting any younger. I'm sure he might take an opportunity if Trump wins to step aside.
So, just to outline the stakes the old-fashioned way and run on it, debate on it. You don't have to take everything apart in our country. You do if your legacy is at stake. And, you know, she's basically Monster stomped him with the party. Like she didn't have to win any votes to replace Biden.
So Kamala Harris is in the catbird seat now, and he's trying to get legacy points and give people something to run on in case she doesn't work out down ballot. Let's get to this: outrage at a stunt in the Paris Olympics. Brian, I know you're covering this. I follow you in social media. During the opening ceremony, It went global.
Organizers put on a drag queen show. Making fun of Jesus Christ's Last Supper. And the people behind it did apologize, sort of. They said they did not mean to mock Christianity. That's not an apology.
Organizers say it was all about illusion and tolerance, Clay Travis said this. The goal is to appeal to everyone from every walk of life, to the billions of people around the world who will be watching the Olympics.
So whether it's make fun of Christianity or Islam or the Jewish faith or Hindu, anybody, I was stunned that they would even do this. I just thought it was a really poor choice. Today's New York Post front page calls it the last straw. The op-ed reads: Olympics' last supper debacle was the latest effort to denigrate Western culture. Brian Kilmade.
It's the time for your country to take a bow. You put a lot of money in, you build a lot of stadiums, you have to alter everyone's lifestyle. Tell people in major cities to stay home from work, it gets too crowded. And in the end, you hope to sell your city, Paris, maybe the most famous city in the world outside the one we're in. And you want people to come there.
So, when you do that, you want to show your country in the best light. You know what you want to say? Hey, guys, easy, tone it down. Instead, we get somebody who does something that has nothing to do with France that is so outrageous about their insult to Christianity. They didn't just insult maybe Harris Faulkner and Brian Kilmead, and maybe a lot of people that listen and watch.
Italy. England and in France, they are outraged about the put-down, the outright put-down, and the mockery, and the tongue-in-cheek apology that we got from the producers yesterday.
Sorry, you guys are upset. They knew exactly what they were doing. In fact, they even did a bad job at choreographing on purpose. They wanted to make a mockery of the mockery and said, I could do anything. And so, those people on the fence wondering, man, you know, every four years, should I watch the Olympics?
Should I watch field hockey and the pentathon and figure out why you're carrying a gun and skiing at the same time? Should I really do that? Oh, wait a second. They're telling me not to watch. And I have an idea.
Why don't you try this for the closing ceremonies? Why don't you have a transgender Muhammad and see how that goes with the Muslim faith? See how funny that they take that, but instead you take a shot in the solar plexus to the Christians and say, get over it. We lit a torch.
Now we have to go.
So to me, it is just unnecessary. I don't think twice about it. We have other things to do. Do in our lives, but in Paris, you should be embarrassed. And if no one checked that off and let them do it, that's bad.
If you did see it and checked it off, that's even worse.
Well, you have said it all. Brian Kilmade, you summed up what so many people felt, but It is an open door right now for Christianity to take a punch to the solar plexus, as you put it. And we have to close that door. They're not welcome to do that. Thank you very much.
So good to simulcast with you and your listeners. Yeah, thanks for doing this, Harris. Appreciate it. Absolutely. Harris Faulkner.
That's great.
So we have a couple more minutes, but we have so many headlines now. I'm going over what's happening in Israel and seeing about the response. We're trying to do the assassination investigation and at the same time covering 2024 and all the elements. This is one of the things I just sat back and watched. What I love personally as a sports guy is I like when sports that don't normally get any praise finally get the limelight when gymnastics, diving, swimming, field hockey, all these other events.
I don't put them down. I'm in awe. You know why? Because all those people have to have other jobs or they have to get a sponsor in order to train just as hard as LeBron James and Kevin Durant and Steph Curry.
So they'd have to work. They just do it for the love of the game for that time that maybe you become a Mary Lou Retton and you can live off that for the rest of your life. Or perhaps, more than likely, you just know I trained and tried to be great in something. And then when you see something like that, Overwhelmed the games. In '72, the Munich terrorist attack, obviously bigger than the Games.
We still remember, I believe Olga Corbett was one that stood out there, but everyone's always going to remember that. And then you had the terror attack that blew up four different train lines and stopped, I think, 500,000 people from moving through the city. I mean, that's pretty huge. And also stopped the Eurostar, which came, which allowed people to go from England over to Europe and the mainland. If you are familiar with Europe, you know what I'm talking about.
So you really were overcoming these terror attacks, and then when they finally get to the main stadium, you put all the teams on separate floats, dragged it out way too long, and then you did a ridiculous play in the middle. Whatever you want to say, I don't want to spend one day in China. I don't want to spend one day in Russia. But when they got the Olympics, at least you knew that this is what Russians think of their country. This is what they're proud of.
Would be China, they wouldn't produce that thing to the nth degree every single moment because they knew the world was watching. This is what France wanted you to see. Good luck with that, guys.
Okay, enough Olympic talk. We go back to the election, 2024. In just a moment, Batiangar Sargon of Newsweek. Don't move. He's so busy, he'll make your head spin.
It's Brian Killmead.
Well, in addition to the aggravated felons and the fentanyls, and I can go on and on about that. What I worry most about, Robert, is, look, you had the fall of Afghanistan. Thousands of ISIS K came out of those prisons of Bagram. end up in a region called the Khorazon region which is Pakistan Afghanistan Tajikistan, they make their way over. They come through Mexico and they enter into the United States ISIS.
When I cheered Homeland, we worried about this, but we never actually saw it.
Now we have ISIS in the homeland. Michael McCall talking over the weekend on one of the Sunday shows, talking about what's happening at the border. But you can't blame Kamala Harris because she was only handling the triangle countries. The problem is, she was handling it all. She eventually made everybody adjust and say, because she didn't want to do it.
And she basically said, I was never a border czar. What I was in charge to do was handle the origins of the problem.
Now, that was part of the problem, but it was not the origins of the problem. Just to review, some of the after Harris was asked in the spring after getting the job as president as Vice President of the United States, winning the election, Axios wrote, Biden puts Harris in charge of the border crisis. NBC News writes, Biden. Task Harris with stemming the migration of the southern border. The Washington Post.
Biden taps Harris to handle the border crisis, Politico. Biden makes Harris the point person on immigration and border surge. It looks like she had the job. She wasn't good at it and didn't want it. Bhatyanger Sargon did all that chronicling.
She is not only, she is the author of Second Class, How the Elites Portrayed American Working Men and Women. She's with Newsweek, and she's in our studio now. Batia, what about this spin? She wasn't the border czar. First of all, thank you so much for having me, Brian.
I just have to say I was so outraged at what they did to you last week. They tried to do a race hoax on you. They tried to say you said a slur. Apparently, they haven't read any of your books, don't know anything about your record, about what you spent all of your time doing. It was so appalling, and it failed because you are such an incredible person, and it was so obviously false about you.
But this is the first of what are going to be many race hoaxes over the next three or four months. And your listeners should be very, very careful about consuming news because there's going to be a lot of fake news, including Kamala Harris was never the Border Czar. Didn't you know it? The most amazing thing is happening, Brian, which is news outlets like Axios that accurately reported that she was the Border Czar three years ago are going back and scrubbing their own articles because they don't fit the current narrative that she was never the border czar. This is our media, they are the biggest producers.
Of fake news and misinformation that we have. Remember, we just watched them turn on Joe Biden after telling us it would deep cheap fakes and everything. Then all of a sudden, they said, you know, Joe Biden is not working that much, and Joe Biden has had some failures. And Joe Biden had a terrible debate. And has he been showing that?
Excuse me, we've been saying this for three and a half years. We said he really did only get elected because he didn't have to campaign. Because the minute he had to do two or three things in a row, he would have fallen apart. He was asked to do three interviews in five days. Every interview had major problems.
Stephanopoulos, as well as Lester Holt, as well as Ed Gordon with the BET.
So now, all of a sudden, people wanted him out.
So they railroaded him out. Within a couple of days of Kamala Harris getting the job, all of a sudden, I said she should not be going to a college sorority. She should be right behind Benjamin Netanyahu in his address to a joint session of Congress. They said I had said a different word, except college. No one knows what this guy was talking about, but he's head of the White House correspondence there.
And you were the first to come out and say, this is out of control. It's also like the context made it obvious you were talking about college because you said it's the summer. I don't know why she's going there to a college sorority. Like, yeah, because college. Is on break in the summer, right?
It was just so obvious. And this person-that means you can postpone it. I'm not saying don't go get the college kids and the sororities who span generations. In the middle of July, exactly. Like, was why now?
And it was just an excuse not to sit behind Benjamin Netanyahu. You were totally right about that. And yes, like you said, the head of the White House Correspondent Association, this is not like a nobody. This is a person who has a huge impact on the culture of our news coming out and smearing a fellow journalist on behalf of a presidential candidate of one of the sides, right? Right.
So if you thought that Donald Trump's going to get a fair shake in this, right? Like, not that anybody thought that, but. Yeah. So there's a lot going on. First off, let's just finish off the relationship between Netanyahu and this administration.
It's absolutely terrible. I could not believe, if you could pop up again the amount of weapons, if you can, for a second, Pete, these are the weapons that have been held back from Israel that Congress earmarked should go there. 120 millimeter tank, a millimeter tank ammunitions, 120 millimeter mortar ammunitions, medium tactical vehicles, F-15s, F-3135 engines, J-Dams, MK-84, 2,000-pound bombs, rifles. 338 medium machine guns and got it missile systems. Do you believe this?
So you're wondering, you said speed it up and finish them off, or stop it. How do you speed them up when they're holding them back? And also, these are precision munitions that would minimize the civilian casualties, which, by the way, are already extremely low. The UN halved the number of women and children that it estimates were killed during this war. Of course, nobody reported that because they're too busy taking Hamas's word for it that 40,000 people were killed.
It's nonsense. Hamas never distinguishes between civilians and militants, right?
So these are munitions that are designed to protect civilians. And instead of sending those over, they've been holding them back. And honestly, I think Donald Trump would probably also have harsh words for Netanyahu, but he would say, get it done faster. This needs to end. We need to get this done, right?
Because, you know, if Netanyahu is prevaricating because of domestic issues, Trump would have his back and say, get this done. And he would go to Qatar and say, you want to keep your little special, you know, non-NATO ally status? Get this done. He would bring that machismo that you need in this situation. Situation as opposed to the prevarication we're seeing from Barbara.
When he says it wouldn't happen when he's president, here's what backs it up: he was starving Iran of the funds necessary to fund Hamas and Hezbollah to even do something like this. They were on their heels, to say the least. But now they're selling millions of bottles, excuse me, millions of barrels of oil and gas to China, especially. Then we could give secondary sanctions to China and say, guys, what are you doing? Hey, India, we have this special relationship.
Why are you keeping Russia's war machine going?
Now, if they say, well, we have a relationship with them, well, let them know there's going to be a certain price to pay if you continue at this level to be the number one buyer of Russian oil. There are things that we could be doing diplomatically. Instead, we show up and we want to condemn our allies. We want to tell Zelensky, you know, get it done, stop complaining, but we slow walk him weapons too. Yeah, and I think that the worst part about the Biden administration is it's not even like they had a positive Iran, you know, foreign policy or a negative, they had no foreign policy when it came to Iran.
There's nothing. It's not like they tried to actually reestablish the Iran deal, which maybe would have been bad, but at least they would have had some negotiations here, some leverage. They have nothing because they have no foreign policy. They only have domestic policy. Kamal Harris, you're seeing the same thing out of her, talking out of both sides of her mouth when it comes to Israel, because there's no foreign policy there.
There's just the attempt to sort of buy votes here and buy votes there. Batyonga Sergan with us.
So, Batia, this is the new push. They've had a few talking points that they handed out: how she's not the borders are. We all saw the flashcards that all her surrogates and all the people who are auditioning for her number two slide are doing.
Now, listen for the word and tell me if you see a commonality here. Cut one.
Some of what he and his running mate are saying, well, it's just plain weird. I mean that's the box you put that in, right? These guys are just weird. That's who they are. So it ain't it isn't much else.
But we're not afraid of weird people. We are. We're a little bit creeped out, but we're not afraid. It's not about her. or her opponent really.
It's no matter what kind of weird stuff they keep saying. It's the weirdest thing. He'll go and like literally hug an American flag.
Now I love the flag, but I mean it's like weird what he does, right?
So weird. That's weird. What do you think? I mean, is that gonna Is that gonna matter? They want to make him strange?
You're going to try to redefine Trump? You know, it's so strange. To me, the kind of creepy thing is hearing the lock step. Yes.
Like the same word, the same thought. You turn on the word. We haven't picked up on that. Exactly. And like, it's both throughout the ranks of the politicians, but even scarier and creepier is it's throughout the media, right?
You turn on the media, you turn on liberal news channels, you read the New York Times, you read those outlets. They are all in lockstep. These people whose job it is to think independently, whose job it is to think for themselves, they get these talking points and then they repeat them and repeat them and repeat them in an attempt to brand people. It's creepy. All right.
So here's what Trump said: that people try to, they watch his speech, they always go for over an hour. I love that Pete Buddha judged last week, he's slipping. Really?
Over an hour and a half, doing two or three events a day, doing fundraisers, going to Bitcoin. Good luck with that. Here is Donald Trump in West Palm Beach. They're hopping on this. Uh cut 13.
And again, Christians get out and vote just this time. You won't have to do it anymore. Four more years. You know what? It'll be fixed.
It'll be fine. You won't have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians. I love you, Christians. I'm a Christian. I love you.
Get out. You got to get out and vote. In four years, you don't have to vote again. We'll have it fixed so good you're not going to have to vote.
So, you know, it's Trump being Trump, and he's saying this is it for me. Obviously, it's it for him, but they're saying, look, he's going to get rid of the election process. He's going to destroy democracy. You left. But I mean, don't do you think that even Independence and Literally know what he's kidding?
Exaggerate. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So, there's this phony outrage that was saying. Yeah, it's like they are hoping that the people they're saying it to will believe it. They don't believe it. Like, they know it's nonsense, but they're hoping to convince other people because they have contempt for their viewers, contempt for their listeners, right? They assume that their listeners are less smart than them and therefore won't understand that this is like a big joke.
Right.
Uh here's what Tom Cotton said, cut 14. I think he's obviously making a joke about how bad things have been under Joe Biden and how good they'll be if we send President Trump back to the White House so we can turn the country around again. That's what the American people know. For four years, things were good with President Trump. We had stable prices, a growing economy, peace and stability around the world.
Under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, everything has gone to hell. And it will be much worse under Kamala Harris. Just look at her record. She wants to ban private health insurance. She wants to ban fossil fuel production.
She wants to ban guns. She even wants to ban plastic.
So, this is what he should be running against. All this other stuff. It's not an exaggeration. Unless she's going to walk back and say, you know, that was me in 2020. I really had, I really shouldn't have said all those things.
And then you'd go, really? What are you going to change on now? But you can't just ignore all that. That's what Trump should be running down, though. And I think also there are so many differences, right?
Trump has effectively sidelined the elites in his party, whereas the Democrats have turned their party into a party where the elites elect the president, right? You know, it's totally crazy. The left is leaning, the Democrats are leaning into the far left and the extremes. Trump has sidelined the extremes and is leaning into the middle, right, in terms of just policy. The real difference is Trump obviously has a very coherent view about how to bring this country back for working-class Americans who are struggling to achieve the American dream.
And Kamala Harris believes in nothing, right? She believes in whatever is the thing she's told to believe in by, you know, she's sort of factory settings Democrat, right? Like she, Pete Buddha Jej, Hillary Clinton, right? Whatever the party, wherever they are, that's what they'll say. Whether it's defund the police four years ago, okay, now that's less popular, so now we got to like pivot.
Okay, let's have, how can we, now she's a prosecutor, and now she's proud of the prosecutor. In 2020, the fact that she was a prosecutor got her booted off before a single vote was cast.
Now let's lean into that because Trump is a felon. Whatever it is. Is she'll say. And I think that that is the main difference here. You have a candidate who has a very clear worldview about how to improve this country and one who is taking orders from the elites.
Yeah, and the thing is, now this is the moment. The honeymoon's almost over.
Now it's can you handle the attack back?
So now, over the weekend, Donald Trump said this, this, and this. What is your answer? He says you're against fracking, all the things you just mentioned. What do you say to that? He's going to say, well, Donald Trump's weird.
That's not going to work. That'll work the first week. We're happy. He can read a prompter. And you always want to replace somebody who's bad.
Joe Biden's bad on a prompter, bad communicator, bad in interviews, seems to read the instruction out loud.
So when you go out there and you nail a prompter and you're 59 years old, no, I don't think she's dumb at all. But what she wants to do, I think, is terrible, which is going to be very interesting for her to defend.
So now I think the honeymoon's over. Beginning this week, she's going to have to respond. At some point, maybe build up to it. Does she step off the stage and ask some press to ask her some questions? Right.
I mean, does that when it gets interesting? Yeah, I think so. When she's forced to speak extemporaneously and to respond to actual clips and actual quotes from her, from her past, make her either stand by them or contradict them. I will say, Brian, I think there's an undiscussed, under-discussed aspect of. Of this race.
It is. And it is that both candidates are very good dancers. And I don't know when the last time we've had that is, but I think there should be a bit of a dance-off, maybe in the beginning of the next debate. Do you think that Trump's a good dancer, or he is just a. A guy who doesn't care.
What people think about is dancing. You know what makes a good dancer is someone who is 100% themselves. And that, you cannot take that away from him. Is that true? He's always 100% himself.
So you think that's the key. Do you want to be a judge, and so you think you can dance? I mean, what makes you think? How do you feel as though you could comment on dancing? They do cut a great montage of Donald Trump at the RNC.
Yeah. Of him dancing because he likes to come out there and have a good time. He also loves music. Evidently he hob he does not drink, but when these guys are partying So he will hop into and take over the DJ booth. And just go he just likes well, it's good when you're on the club.
So that certainly helps. Bob, here, what can you pray? Where else are you going to be today? Or what column do you have out? Is there anything else?
Well, I was on Fox and Friends this morning. Thanks so much for having us. And I'll be on tonight, Fox at Night. Oh, you're on with You're wrong with Trace. Trace, yes, yes.
Okay, great. That's great.
And also, pick up her book. Yeah. It is called Second Class: How the Elites Portrayed America's Working Men and Women. Batia, thanks so much. Thank you, Brian.
God bless you. You're the nicest guy in this business. Wow, thank you very much. Pete, you have to be number two, and I guess, Eric, you're number three, I guess. We'll have to see.
Thank you very much for defending me, by the way. Back in the morning. Always. It's Brian Killmead.
Information you want, truth you demand. This is the Brian Kill Me Show. This is a MAGA right-wing court. It's already taken the right to choose. It could very well go further on that.
I fear it will. It's siding with the wealthiest of individuals and the powerful interests over the average working family. And it even threatens democracy. And I think we will look at all the various proposals and see what should be done. That is Chuck Schumer making a rare Sunday show appearance, refusing to answer the question: did you actually force Joe Biden out?
What was that final conversation like? But wanting to talk about the Supreme Court, irresponsibly saying there's going to be a whirlwind of trouble is going to come out of Kavanaugh if they vote a certain way. And now he's trying to say that he supports Supreme Court reform, that Joe Biden is going to announce today in one of his few last acts as President of the United States. It must be desperate and humiliating to do this, especially offer some reforms to the Supreme Court, none of which will see the light of day. Not only won't it do it with Democrats, because you need Republicans to pass this, but Senator Tester, you think it's going to go along with that in Montana?
Senator Brown, you think it's going to go along with that over in Ohio? You crazy and win an election? Do you think Shapiro is going to go? Do you think Shapiro is going to want to verbally back that up? Or Casey over in Pennsylvania?
Forget it.
So, this is just a press conference today. They're going to make it a big deal, but it shouldn't be. Special thanks to everybody, by the way, who came out in Stratsburg, Pennsylvania. We got a packed house in front of a great crowd. We're able to talk about history, liberty, and laughs and have some fun and talk about after.
I also debuted the T-shirt launcher.
So, not only not at your baseball game when the mascot comes out and shoots it, now we got Rick and Pat coming out there shooting it as we bring history to life. All right, I'll be on the five tonight. I think you'll recognize me. I'll be sitting in Greg's seat. The good news is, Greg won't be there.
The other thing is, I'm hosting Gutfeld Tuesday.
So I want you there. Pack the audience. Brian Kilmeetcho. This is Jimmy Phala, inviting you to join me for Fox Across America, where we'll discuss every single one of the Democrats' dumb ideas. Just kidding, it's only a three-hour show.
