Speaker 6: I The Rush Hour with James Golden, entertaining and informative.
Speaker 7: On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
Speaker 6: Attention dittoheads, Attention bow scouts.
Speaker 5: It's time for the soul of excellence.
Speaker 8: He is a radio host here in New York.
Speaker 7: The rush hour is on the air, Rush Rush.
Speaker 5: Now here's James Golden.
Speaker 9: Every single Democrat in Congress voted to raise taxes on
hard working citizens. The whole campaign was raised taxes. I've
never heard of it before all my life. I grew
up and I hear politicians, we will cut taxes. This
is the only group I've ever seen We're going to
raise your taxes, the one.
Speaker 7: That they lost.
Speaker 9: Actually, there are other reasons.
Speaker 6: Also.
Speaker 1: We are speaking about a fiscal crisis at the scale
greater than the Great Recession, and so there will not
be one single thing that can answer that crisis. It
will require us to pursue every single avenue. That means
looking inward into savings and efficiencies. That also means raising
taxes on the wealthiest New Yorker's, the most profitable corporations.
And it means recalibrating the relationship with the state.
Speaker 2: So I decided I was going to start prosecuting parents
for truancy.
Speaker 5: Oh Monday, Yes, we liberals. We voted from Mandami. We
where's all that free stuff. Hi, that's Carlos. Did you
get the free stuff here? Have you been on those
free buses yet? To your have your free where's all
the free stuff? And he's already talking about raising taxes.
We have the worst restoral crisis sense and great mat
session reckon.
Speaker 7: I raised taxes.
Speaker 5: My god, I take every dime from you people that
we can. Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes, my friends. Welcome
to both stairy spress how the Wednesday edition. And I'm
getting texts that could get me in trouble.
Speaker 7: I will.
Speaker 5: I just got a text from very famous, famous broadcast engineer.
I won't mention the name in case this goes bad,
but he's really famous. He said, well, I never condone
any sort of violence on anybody. While I never do it,
I think that spritzing ilhan omar with apple side of
vinegar had a definite meaning. And he just sent me
what it's used. What apple sider is used for? Apple
side of vinegar ACV pairs well with rice to improve texture,
boost digestibility, managed blood sugar spikes. While less common, it
can complement sweet and sour dishes containing bananas or anyway
just the thing to add to rice and bananas probably
goes well with the word salad too. On that note,
and on this serious note, the guy that attacked ilhan
Omar has been found to have a criminal history. It
has now been reported that it was apple cider vinegar
that was in it. And I don't care what was
in it. This guy needs to be in jail for
years to come. And it was premeditated. He told a
friend before he went, he's going on probably be arrested.
You should not only be arrested this guy, he should
be sentenced to spend so many years behind bars without
time off for good behavior, none of it. It is
obscene and I when I saw the video of it,
even though knowing she was all right, I'm just still. Look.
We can have our political differences with somebody, but this
is scary, and she handled herself. I must say some
with being attacked in this manner. Throw this guy, throw
the book at him. The Associated Press of course said
he has a criminal history and made pro Trump post. Okay,
now that said throw the book at him. These are
the same news agencies that don't seem to mind and
are not calling for anything to happen to the protesters
that have been spitting and throwing their body fluids on
ICE agents that have been throwing things on ICE agents
that have been in some cases rioting. All of these people,
I don't care what side of the political fence they
are on, whether they are on the right or the left.
All of these people who are engaging in violence or
trying to intimidate people through violence need to be dealt
with severely, severely and put a stop to this political
discourse in this country deserves better than to have people
that do these kind of things, and law enforcement as well,
and our law enforcement officers need to be protected from
people doing just as horrible things as this person did
to ilham Omar, and there should be there are no
excuses for it, zero none, period and he needs to
be in jail for a long time. Make it count.
And the same thing. Let me repeat. Although the press
doesn't seem to be concerned about the people that are
doing horrible things to ICE agents, border patrol agents, they
need to be dealt with severely as well. Now I
A let's the Mandami thing. Mandami Mayor Zorohan Mundanald, He
says New York City's facing an unexpected ten billion dollar
projected budget deficit, he plans to push state lawmakers to
increase taxes. Tax them to death. Just tax as much
as you can tax them. Yes, and thank you America.
Small cafeinated mom just texted me. Don't forget these people
that are out biting digits, biting the fingers off of
ICE agents as well. Let's see just as much concern
in the media for the ICE agents who have their
fingers bit off by these rabid violent leftists. All of
them again, right left, center, doesn't make a difference. These
people that are out committing violence need to be dealt
with severely, and a message needs to be sent. This
is not acceptable in America, period. I don't care what
party you're in. And let me also say for the record,
and I probably don't have to say it because many
of you agree. I don't think there's anybody that listens
to this program that wants to see ilhan Omar harmed
physically or any other politician of any party. This is
not what we want. We don't want to see our
law of enforcement officials harmed. We don't want to see
the protest thirds come to ill but we don't want
to see them committing violence against ICE agents and interfering
with their investigations. Either. It is time for this whole
thing to de escalate. Stop it now, Zorhan Mundami. We
must raise taxes on the wealthiest few in New York
City so that we can invest in the many. We
must we must take more of the money from the
wealthiest few, who already pay the highest percentage of any
group in America for taxes. We have to go to
them and take even more of their hard earned money
so that we can spread it out, especially among the
people who are not even from this country, who shouldn't
be here because he's still out with his We're gonna
support illegal immigrants no matter what. We don't want Ice
in here. We don't want Trump telling us what to
do with the fact that we have that on the
sound bite roster. I need to look real quick, because
I think we do have Mondami moaning and groaning about Ice. Oh,
we got Nicki Minaj on the sound bite roster today,
and we got a lot of macro Ruby. I don't
know whether we can get to all of it. We'll
try our best to get to some of it. He
lit it up as usual. Domi Mandmi checking. I don't
think we have that other one here anyway, But Montdamie's
been making a big deal about how he yes, yes,
here he is cut eight here is Mondami on ice
is illegally he is the question of ice.
Speaker 3: What we've all seen happening in Halfway.
Speaker 10: There's a big question about whether big ice is going
to come to New York. And I'm curious about what
kind of conversations you've been happening with the President or
the administration about that possibility and.
Speaker 7: How you think you would be reacting to this.
Speaker 1: You know, I said to the President directly that these
ice raids are cruel and inhumane and that they do
nothing to actually serve the interests of public safety. And
the public safety is of paramount importance to us. It's
the cornerstone of an affordability agenda. But to use it
as a justification to pull people out of their cars,
out of their homes, out of their lives, it is
completely contradictory to what New Yorkers are seeing and what
Americans are seeing. And I think what we've seen is
that there is a fear that is gripped hold of
so many, and this is a fear that is without
respect to anyone's documentation. A friend of mine the other
day told me that if ice was to come here
at the kind of presence that we're seeing elsewhere, they
wouldn't feel comfortable with their mother, a US citizen, leaving
the house because they wouldn't know if she would be profiled.
That's how people are living.
Speaker 5: Do you think ice is coming to New York City?
Speaker 1: We're going to do everything in our power to ensure
that we see elsewhere. We keep making the case directly
directly to the President, directly to New Yorkers, to Americans
that these kinds of actions, they are the actions of
a reckless agency that is operating with impunity, one that
deserves to be abolished, frankly, and that they do nothing
to actually serve public interest. The other thing I'd say
is you have to prepare in advance in the same
way that with this snowstorm. The reason we're able to
actually respond to it on the day of the storm
is not because sanitation's there on the morning of. It's
because Friday morning they've brined all the highways and major roadways. Similarly,
if we're talking about the prospect of ice coming here,
we have to ensure New Yorker's actually know their rights.
New Yorkers know what it means to be a sanctuary city.
That we have a law department that's ready to use
the courts as one form of the battleground. That's what
we're also preparing for now that you're.
Speaker 5: The So he's ready to use the courts, which costs money,
to protect illegal immigrants he doesn't want. He claims there's
no public safety benefit. We have information on that that
disputes every single inch of that. The number of criminals
that have been apprehended. He I guess as soon getting
the criminals isn't a matter of safety according to this guy.
So he's ready to protect illegal immigrants at all costs
in everything that comes with it. And how is he
going to fund that. He's going to fund it on
the backs of law abiding people who are American citizens
and reach into their pocket grab more money from them
so that he can pay to keep people that shouldn't
even be in America in his city. And there is
a reason for that. I've been saying it. I have
some stories here that prove it today and we were
gonna we're gonna get into that in more detail. Also,
the just so you know, those of you that are
making travel plans, yah, better be a little bit careful.
Democrats are planning on shutting down the government again to
protect illegal aliens. They are the IDs, the illegal alien Democrats.
And if they shut down the government again, I have
been asking two members of the Royal Court here, the
two most knowledgeable members of the Royal Court besides me
on areas of policy. One of those more than me, actually,
Princess Diana and Lady Benedict. Exactly what is going to
shut down when they shut it down if Democrats do
shut it down, And I found out so far one
of the things that could be shut down TSA. They're
also want to shut down CDC monitoring, Department of Defense,
Medicaid and Medicare. Prayers will proceed, irs, major disruptions during
tax season. Air traffic controllers are going to have to
work again without pay. Social Security that goes on mail delivery, Yeah,
National parks open, and of course your food stamps, the
welfare food stamps will continue, but you might not be
able to fly. We got to take a quick break here, man.
So much stuff going on. To all of you wealthy
New Yorkers who voted for Zorhan Mandami, fuckers. You're getting
what you wanted. James Golden is Nerdly. We'll be back.
Next segment is going to be short, but don't go away.
Speaker 1: Rush.
Speaker 6: This is the Rush Hour with James Golden. The Rush
Hour with James Golden, entertaining and informative.
Speaker 11: On the Red Apple podcast network.
Speaker 8: James Golden known popularly as both Nerdly.
Speaker 6: This is the Rush Hour with James Golden.
Speaker 8: Rush.
Speaker 5: Okay, folks, we got two stories share. I gotta get
through them really quickly, so bear with me. LA Times
Today has a story the median rent in Los Angeles
metro area dropped to two hundred and sixty seven bucks
in December, the lowest in four years. And people are
thinking they're new, They're getting their new like rent prices
and they're saying this mistake. When does rent get cheaper
in LA? It has gotten cheaper, And of course the
news stories try to say that people are really confused
about it. I'm not confused about it at all. It's
supplying demand and guess what, the demand has shrunk. You
know why the demand has shrunk in Los Angeles? They
made a fleeting reference to it, because ice has been
there and because people are leaving. What happened when they're
vacancies and they're no and no one's filling the vacancies,
people lower the prices. That's one. Then there's a story
in Wall Street Journal I believe it is America's immigration
labored shock, and the companion story in the New York
Times today, US population growth slows sharply, two very important stories.
We'll touch on them when we get back. Whatever you do,
keep it right there, do not go away.
Speaker 6: The Rush Hour with James Golden, entertaining and informative on
the Red Apple podcast network.
Speaker 8: Then known popularly as most Nerdly.
Speaker 6: This is the Rush Hour with James Golden.
Speaker 5: In a second, I'm just yeah, here we go, raising
some What's what's one of these boy bands? Is this Carlos?
This is the Backstreet Boys with I Want It that Way? Okay, yeah, okay.
That's because Nick Carter was born on this day, right
from that group, right. You know what. I wasn't a
big fan because I was so busy at this cycle
in my life with the news that I didn't pay
much attention to the to the boy bands. But they
were huge. This guy Nick Carter, great singer, at least
I thought it was. It was good music. Nick Carter
with Backstreet Boys born in nineteen eighty or a child.
And then we have the other boy band that was
really big, which is in Sync and Joseph Fatone nineteen
seventy seven born on his day from that group. Oh,
I love Sid Rosenberg. He just texted me. I love
Sid Rosenberg. He's just so amazing. He's just one of
the best broadcasters ever. Sid just texted me and I
just love him so much. What a great broadcaster. Number
one morning show Sit and Friends in the morning in
the entire country. And he's just he's incredible and he
I love it. He's so stand up, not only about
his beliefs, but about the people that he and the
and the policies that he supports. Just and he's a
wonderful human being in the and what a great guy.
I could talk about him all day anyway, boy band day.
And I've just been asking a question from some of
the ladies in the audience, and now I'm gonna ask
some of the guys Jonas, do you allow your wife
to wear those Lulu Lulu things, lulul lams or Lulu
Lulu lemons.
Speaker 3: Yes, I do very expensive.
Speaker 5: They're very expensive. But you allow your wife to wear them.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I allow her to.
Speaker 12: I don't disagree, you know, I mean, I can't control
what she wears. I'm glad that she respects my perspective
on how she dresses.
Speaker 3: But I don't have to worry about that with her.
She's good.
Speaker 5: Carlos, you have not a wife, but and I don't
want to delve into I don't have to worry about
that kind of stuff.
Speaker 4: Bro Like, this is not, this is not this is
not the treat to bark.
Speaker 3: I don't care about those things.
Speaker 4: But I have friends that they buy those stupid clothes
which are expensive.
Speaker 5: For no reason. Stupid, you said, I.
Speaker 3: Said, stupid them. And Alo too. I don't like Alo either.
Speaker 5: Alo. I never heard of Alo, but Alo is alo Vera.
You put that it's a plant, it has medicinal.
Speaker 2: A l O.
Speaker 3: It's a clothing brand.
Speaker 12: A lot of you know, Steph Curry or you know,
very popular you know, wear those type of clothing.
Speaker 5: Him. Yeah, you know Steph Curry. I found out that
I'm supposed to be calling him Steph. I called him
Stephen Curry's. Steph was out there making some remarks about
Minneapolis and I'm saying that that's the way Gavin Newsom,
and I'm like, who cares? Play ball? TJ? Do you
let your wife wear Loulilululululu Losa lululula. She doesn't like Lululemons.
I asked America's small caffeinated mom, Ronda Shruck, if her
husband allowed her Grant, the most wonderful Grant. And I
pose the question in this way, does Grant allow you
to wear yoga pants? He does, but I don't like
to wear them out in public without a long coat.
It's my comfort level, not his. He has one of
the healthiest, most respectful attitudes toward women. Does not objectify
if all if all men were like you, well, they're not.
We're not all like Grant. If all men were like Grant,
we're not, You're lucky. And then I asked Princess di
if Mike used to allow her to wear wear the lululemons.
I asked a Lady Benedict, and Lady Benedict says, he
only allows me to wear them when he walks behind me.
And she said that she doesn't wear the Lulu things anyway, though,
And then Princess Died just hit me up with laughter.
She didn't even bother to answer the question, which is
do their wives allow them to wear speop? What a question?
Do their wives allow them? What centuaty you live in?
Speaker 6: Lady?
Speaker 5: Give me a break. The reason I asked, ladies and
gentlemen is because Lululemon puts get Low leggings back online
with caveats after pulling its Get Low collection, and I
don't know what that means. Princess died. Mike didn't care
what I wear as long as I wore Giants jerseys
for game day.
Speaker 2: Huh.
Speaker 5: After pulling its Get Low collection from its website in
North America when shoppers complained that the leggings were totally
see through, Lululemon is offering the line for sale again,
along with new product guidance. We take our guest feedback
seriously and value their input in shaping the products and
experiences we create. Last week, we temporarily pause our online
sale of our Get Low collection in North America to
review early guest feedback. Based on the learnings the learnings,
we've updated our product education information as of Friday. The
fit in size and guidance Forget Low includes a recommend
to size up and pair it with skin toned seamless underwear.
The product features a selection that so I don't understand
what any of this means except they want you to
wear draws underneath your Lululemons. Now, the Countess of Conspiracy
says that she doesn't wear Lululemon, but she does wear
leggings from time to time, and Tom Bond, her husband,
doesn't seem to mind. He allows her to do that.
She didn't put the allowed part. I just stuck that
in now. I don't know who exactly is complaining that
these things are see through, but I wish you wherever's
complaining about it would stop. Just stop complaining about it.
There's no need. Women know what they're doing, and women
have an entro sick sense for fashion that men sometimes
don't understand. So those of you complaining that Lulu limitings
the get Lows are too see through, please be quiet,
Please stop. There's no need to complain about this. There
are so many other more important things in the world.
Then why A You're spending so much time talking about
it because it's important. Stop complaining about it, please, and
don't you don't have to follow their recommendations. By the way,
about wearing seamless color tone briches underneath the LULUs. Glad
we straightened that out. Okay, we got through. Mandami's stick
it tall arge. People had voted for him in New York.
He's gonna stick it to them America's immigration labors. Okay,
story number one. Rent prices first time and as long
as a lot of people can remember going down in
Los Angeles, Los Angeles Times, having a little bit of
a problem figuring out why all of a sudden, first
time in four years, first time, lowest rents in four years?
Why is it happening now? After the ice rates, US
population grows sharp, growth grows slows sharply. The NU census
data showed that the US population grew to roughly three
hundred and forty two million people midway through twenty twenty five,
an increase of about one point eight million people compared
with the previous year. That's one of the slow what
was growth rates in American history? Only once has the
US population increased by less than zero point five percent.
That was back in twenty twenty one, when the pandemic
caused death to soar and borders to close. So they go.
The biggest reason is a sharp drop in immigration. Trump's
anti immigration policies are expected to further slow population growth
if the trend continues, since this bureau said the immigration
would fall to about three hundred and twenty one thousand
in the current year, lower than even in the pandemic.
That's the New York Times. Now the Wall Street Journal
has the same kind of story, the same numbers, but
then they say this toward the end, And this is
the part the New York Times seems to have left
out of their story. Interestingly enough, if this this trend holes,
Democratic run states will likely lose at least half a
dozen congressional seats after the post twenty to thirty census reapportionment,
as well as the federal funds tied to population anti
growth policies have consequences. Funny, the New York Times, all
the news it's fit to print, didn't see fit to
print the impact of this slower population growth tied to immigration.
Five states, by the way, lost population. California, Hawaii, New Mexico, Vermont,
and West Virginia all lost popular What does that mean? Well,
four or five of the four out of those five
states are run by who Democrats, and then New York
has negative numbers, Illinois has negative numbers. New Jersey has
negative numbers. Massachusetts has negative numbers. Are you beginning to
see the picture here? This slowing population growth before the
next census means that Democrats could lose Already we're talking
with the with the illegal immigration that's in the country
already of almost forty million People's estimated to be thirty
nine million people. It's estimated that just those people out
of the equation. If the trendholds with population growth the
way it is, Democrats could lose at least a half
dozen seats. Now add to it, what happens if deportion
If deportations continue. What happens if in LA the population
continues to shrink, Real estate prices go down, affordability starts
happening more, but it's not driven by all of these things,
driven by illegal immigration, and all of a sudden life
starts to get better for the and more affordable for
people that are there. What happens all over the country
If that happens, What happens to the Democrat Party If
they lose half a dozen seats just because of the population,
and they lose another half dozen to twenty seats due
to deportations. What does that do to the Democrat Party.
I'll tell you what it does to the Demo Democrat Party.
It's doom. It is their demise as a political force.
And that is why they are in the streets now.
That is why all this money is being poured into
making sure these agitators are disrupting. That is why Mondami,
that is why the mayor in Massave, that's why the
governor of Massachusetts, that's why the mayor of Bastin. That's
why all of these Democrat Party mayors are scared blankless
because they understand the numbers at work here, and they
understand that their entire political party is at risk because
their party has been built on illegality, and they will lose.
This is why they care more about illegal immigrants than
they care more about American citizens, because their political lifeblood
is tied up with intertwined with illegal immigration. That's why
you're seeing what you're seeing. Now, let's address this thing.
Mondami said that, oh, you know, aly Ice doesn't do
anything in terms of public safety. Princess Diana's favorite governor
in the country was on with Laura Ingraham and she
asked him a little bit of ebonic language there. She
asked him about the difference between Florida's approach we're dealing
with ICE and what's happening in Minnesota that has cut
seven And here is what we.
Speaker 10: Certainly are not seeing chaos in Florida as we've seen
in places like Minneapolis. So what is the difference. Well,
when President Trump got elected, it was clear he got
elected on two main issues, as you mentioned, the economy
and the border, and not only stopping the invasion that
occurred under Biden, but then removing the people who were
here illegally. And so I called the special session of
the Florida Legislature and we imposed the legal requirement on
all state and local law enforcement agencies to participate with
DHS and Interior immigration enforcement operations. And the result of
that has now been between state and local we've done
twenty thousand apprehensions of illegal aliens. And that's in addition
to what ICE is doing on its own. And you
do have a very very cohesive set of forces and
we're all on the same page.
Speaker 5: And here's the thing.
Speaker 10: The reason why I impose that requirement. We have some
sheriffs that would be gung ho to do this. We've
got some cities, some mayors would not want to do
it right. But since we did the requirement, if you
act like Jacob Fry in Florida, then you get removed
from your position. And so we have consequences to that duty.
And it's worked very well, and it's important the American
people voted for this. This is something that has to
be accomplished, and if it can't be accomplished with President
Trump's presidency, then are we ever going to be able
to get it done exactly?
Speaker 5: And crime numbers down everywhere it's tried. James Golden is,
We'll be right back. Don't go away.
Speaker 10: Rush.
Speaker 6: This is the Rush Hour with James Golden. The Rush

Speaker 5: You know Bruce Spruce Springsteen released some song about Minneapolis
today or yesterday and people are whatever. Nicki Minaj was
out with Donald Trump says she's probably the President's greatest fan.
And you talk about fearless, she's fearless about it. We
have the quote, but not enough time. One of the
greatest things that ever happened in the higher record industry
in the history of the record industry happened on this
day in the year nineteen eighty five. Quincy Jones went
in the studio with some of the biggest artists across
the genres of all time, including Stevie, Tina Turner, Bruce Springsteen,
Diana Ross, Bob Dylan, Ray, Charles, Daryl Hall, John Note,
Cindy Laupas, Steve Perry, Bob Geldoff, Michael Jackson, and Line
Richie wrote the song and it became one of the
biggest singles of all time. And the message still holds.
It still holds. May God bless protect you, every one
of you and your famili's and your loved ones. Love
and gratitude for your being here with me, allowing me
