Speaker 1: The Rush Hour with James Golden, Entertaining and Informative.
Speaker 2: On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
Speaker 3: You know a lot of us. I interviewed him for
my podcast. I've talked to his team when the first
New York Times article came out. I said, this read
sort of funny. What else is there? Is there something
else coming out? And everyone told me, up and down,
absolutely not. I and I think all of us heard
that same thing from him from his team. Nothing else
coming out. This is clearly a misunderstanding. There's nothing more
coming out. We were sold an arc, right, a character
arc of a person who had blacked out but now
no longer did that behavior.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 3: I shouldn't have asked him when I interviewed him if
he wasn't drinking still, because there's only one way you
get those blackouts, and that's from drinking. And so the
idea we were sold this character arc, this this person
who gets better, who got better, but he wasn't maybe better.
Speaker 5: We would sold the character arc, and we bought it.
Were we would sold the character arc. I she asked him,
are you still drinking? Are you drinking? Because it's the
only way you get.
Speaker 6: A character Welcome, my friends to the Thursday edition of
both Earls Rush Our Fastest Hour and American Media. That
is one of the liberal apologists today, Molly Young Fast
on PMS now and she was sold the character arc.
We have others hilarious Joy read cut I think it's
hilarious anyway. In fact, let's play Joy read right now,
cut nine and just get this out of the way.
Speaker 4: Progressive pick Flatner, So you need to replace him with
who is ideologically the same, because that is what was
decided the people of Maine.
Speaker 6: The vote.
Speaker 4: The Democratic voters of Maine said we want to progressive.
They did not say they.
Speaker 6: Want an apath model. So the Democratic.
Speaker 4: Party in Maine ought to pick someone who is ideologically
the same or ideologically similar as Platiner. If you don't
and the DNC shoves an APAC candidate down your throat,
you have my permission to not vote for them, because
the Democratic Party needs to learn that it is not
vote blue no matter who. It matters who. They sometimes
need to lose in order to learn. Sometimes when you lose,
you learn. And I'm just telling you right now, if
they put a little a pack, send Israel all the bombs,
give Saudi Arabia all the money. Let the UAE run
over us and give Trump another plane. If they put
another a pack sell out moderate in place of gram Platinum,
and they do not put somebody in who is his
same ideology. You have my permission to stay your ass
home when Susan Collins gets six more years. At this point,
we have to teach democrats. We need to instruct them
and teach them how to treat us. It's like being
in a relationship. You gotta teach you how to treat you.
Speaker 7: I know a good thing about it is six more years?
Speaker 6: Enough enough, enough enough, what an ego? You have my
permission to not vote to stay your stay home. Thank you,
Joey read Uh. Democrats are in full retreat. I heard
a funny montage before the show, right before the show
started it is too long to play, of all of
the Democrats supporting that were supporting Graham Platner. He of
course has decided he's gone, uh so yeah by Graham
and the apologies keeping we were sold to character arc.
We did this, and then you have and then you
have Representative Salem Pendri. She's from Pingrie, she is from Maine,
and she's mad cut to she doesn't want advice from anybody,
not even.
Speaker 8: You know, there's no guarantee that I would get to
vote on who gets to you know, go to the
convention and nominate. So it's a very open process and
anybody could participate. Most people are sort of baffled by
because they've never bothered to pay any attention. And as
the people who have been working in the trenches for
the years in years, who have kept these democratic parties
in little states like ours going, and people should have
some appreciation and respect for that.
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's all up now to these anonymous people who
are never praised, never thanked publicly, never focused on by
the news media, who are going to have to salvage
a Senate election and the most important Senate election season
possibly of our lifetimes. And these people Platter today was
referring to as party apparatchicks. What was your reaction to
him using that phrase?
Speaker 8: Can I just be clear that's not even a main word,
Like nobody even says that stuff, you know, It's like.
Speaker 9: Well, he did have someone fly up from New York
to help him write this thing, and that is a
New York word. That is the kind of language here.
Speaker 8: Well, my number one request is could everybody just leave
us alone in me and could everybody just you know,
high paid consultants, all that, people who want to make
money off of us, who want to treat us like
a Petri dish, just stay away and stop writing all
your dumbass columns on the internet and telling us what
we should be doing it. Don't call me anymore. I
don't want to hear your ideas about you know, why
we're not doing it well enough, and you know it's
that's just that's just not how we do it here.
And Devin made a really good point. We're independent, we
don't like to be told what to do, and we're
not stupid. We can figure this about. And people it
may have great integrity, incredible common sense, they're not ideologues.
They want they want this to work. They want something
to happen, and they hate what's going on in this country.
Speaker 4: People.
Speaker 8: You know, they're so distressed when I talk to them
every day in the grocery store, you know, everywhere I
encounter people just came from an event tonight and and
they just they just want to fix this stuff and
they want to take power back again, and they want
to be in control, and they want us to have
the power to fight back in Washington, to be able
to investigate in subpoena and sue the damn president and
just stop him from his reckless behavior and get those
things that we've been promising people for a long time,
like healthcare and childcare and affordable housing. So meaners are
all in to fix this thing. And that's the one
thing people have said to me. They may be, you know,
very sad and distressed that the Platiner campaign is not
going to go on, But the second thing they say is,
but I want to win and what we need to do.
Speaker 6: Good. You have joy reads enough. We we have joy
Reads permission to sit it home. If you don't like
the way that you people and Maine decide that you
want to fix things. We have more on the plat
and stuff. We also have some other things I would
love to get to today, folks, including flock cameras. If
we have a time. People are destroying flock What are
flock cameras. Yeah, they're cameras that are placed in Look.
If you watch murder shows like I watch, you see
police use them all the time to try to apprehend
and figure out who drove where they're on roadways, all
over the country is surveillance these flock cameras, and people
are destroying them. Down in Houston and other people in Florida.
Is a guy running for governor down he's not gonna win,
but he's he's campaigning against the flock cameras. So maybe
we'll have a chance to get to that. But first,
there's some ugliness that's happened in New York. Now, one
way or another, this is ugly, and it happened on
a subway. Whether it's true or whether it's not true,
either one is ugly. If it's true, it's horrendous. If
it's not true, it's horrendous. Teen arrested for sex assault
on mom with kids in New York City subway is
a Yale student. As headline, New York Daily News has
this story, a teenager arrested for sexually assaulting a young
mom riding the subway with her children in a random
attack is a Yale University student. The Daily News has
learned Michigan native Ari teen eighteen teen is accused of
creeping up on the thirty year old woman her four
young children in tow on a crowded subway car and
forcing two fingers inside her Virginia at about three pm
on June twenty eighth. The young mom had nowhere to
move during the disturbing assault, which was witnessed by all
her children, who are under eleven, on the uptown our train,
of course, approaching the West twenty eighth Street stop. According
to the Manhattan DA's office, he was released this eighteen
year old without bail when he appeared for arrangement, charged
with first degree sexual assault. Now this kid has a lawyer,
Prias Shadri, who represented disgrace Hollywood actor Jonathan Majors in
a domestic violence case against film producer Paul Hackins. I
know it's getting detailed anyway, he says. Every strap hanger
on his encountered unhinged people on the subway when a
visited our city. It was his term. He didn't assault anyone.
He was visiting bookstores with a friend when his life
was turned upside down by a woman who falsely accused
him of a vile crime. His reputation has been destroyed,
she said, before a single piece of evidence has made public.
He's been labeled as a creep and convicted in court.
In the court of public opinion, the allegation is nonsense.
On the woman's own version of events, you would have
had to have been wearing a swimsuit for the alleged
conduct to have been physically possible. Like I said, either way,
this is horrendous. If he did sneak two fingers into her.
Virginia who on a subway in front of her kids
could grief If he didn't, and he's being accused of
it and his reputation the kids pictures everywhere. Man, that's
pretty yes, pretty brutal on a subway train no less. Now, Carlos,
I asked you to have something ready from the Ohio players.
It's time for it. Thank you. We need that. This
story comes to us from Fort Wayne, Indiana. My friends,
What started as an investigation into a stabbing and arson
took a disturbing turn in Fort Wayne after a man
admitted he set his own genitals on fire. On May sixth,
the Fort Wayne Fire Department investigated a fire to detach
garage around the same time police were responding to a
reported stabbing. The person stabbing victim said he needed to
be truthful. Later on, that's when he revealed the true
cause of the fire. The man who claimed he had
been stabbed, said he went to the garage and harmed
himself by cutting off his penis with a kitchen knife.
Speaker 5: He didn't just.
Speaker 6: Cut it off either, he told investigators. He poured gasoline
on it and set it on fire on the floor
of the garage, just inside the door, and that's what
lit the house up. Barbecued. Why you're asking me why?
Why would anyone? Why would anyone cut their own Do
you know that we're almost to the day the anniversary
of when Lorena Bobbitt cut off her husband's calls. You're
too young to remember that. You don't even remember the
big story across the country. He was sleeping, his wife
cut it off and threw it out on the front lawn.
Police recovered it, rushed it to the hospital, and they
sold it back on him. And then after all of that,
he had a career in porn. I had forgotten that part,
Thank you. But this guy, I don't think there's any
rescuing because he barbecued it. He toasted it a post
to toasty. We'll be back, my friends. James Golden's slowly
fastest hour in American media continues. Don't Go Away.
Speaker 1: The Rush Hour with James Golden entertaining and informative on
the Red Apple Podcast Network. The Rush Hour with James Golden,
Entertaining and informative on the Red Apple Podcast Network.
Speaker 6: James going snurbly with you here fastest out on American media. No,
I don't know. I don't know. I don't put your
hand up with me. I don't know what he seasoned
it with. I don't know if he seasoned it. I
don't know if he put barbecue sauce on it before
he lit it up. And I don't know why he
did it. And all I know it must hurt. It
must have hurt, and that's all I need to know.
Could greed Castine Rampel is a column list. I think
she's I think she writes for the Washington Post. I
see her column every now and again. This is one
of the MSMs she is on PMS. Now that bunch
she was upset cut one. We'll play as much of
it as we can, maybe squeeze it in. From the
bottom of my heart, Thank you, thank you, thank all
of you.
Speaker 2: Thank you. Gonna win someday, someday we'll win.
Speaker 7: Well.
Speaker 10: That was Graham Platner officially announcing that he is dropping
off of the ballot for Maine Senate, for Ecuney for
a federal Senate from Maine, but taking zero responsibility for
any of the scandals and more ruling things in his
past that have destroyed that campaign. Instead blame let's see
corporate media, the political establishment. Lots of hate for the
political establishment, saying that we banded together, we did it
the way we were told, we were supposed to make change,
and we want and now they are not going to
let us have it. So lots of finger pointing and
blame and not taking any responsibility. Note that whoever he
conceives of as the political establishment, you do have many
of his once allies, including Bernie Sanders and Rocanna, also
calling for him to drop out. People who oh.
Speaker 6: That's the short list. Baby. Of course you expected him
to take blame. One of Democrats ever taken blame for
anything they've done to themselves or to America. We'll be
back The Rush.
Speaker 1: Hour with James Golden entertaining and informative on the Red
Apple podcast Network. The Rush Hour with James Golden entertaining
and informative.
Speaker 2: On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
Speaker 6: James Golden's thirdly fastest hour in American media. I also
want to mention we don't have any other songs. One
of the greatest background singers ever, gwyn Guthrie, had a
heavenly birthday to day she passed in nineteen ninety nine.
She also wrote This Time I'll be sweeted those of
you and Bofel fans you remember that was on That
was the lead single from her debut album, This Time
I'll be Sweeter Gwynn Guthrie. He's saying background with so
many people, Aretha, Billy, Joel, Stevie, Peter Tosh, Madonna, so
many others, and wrote other songs, Benny King, ROBERTA. Flack.
So just remembering Gwynn Guthrie too, one of the great
background voices in many of the hit records that people enjoyed.
Let's we have so much on the Graham, but he's gone,
and so I'm gonna hold the rest of those sound bites.
Hopefully we'll catch up with Princess Diana on Saturday and
maybe we can play some of them. We got Gretchen
Carlson near a Tangerine is echoing what you heard from
Catherine Rampeller're all mad at Graham for the way he left, etc. Etc.
So we have that, but I want to move on
to some other things. Cut ten. This is Vice President
of the United States hjd. Vanci was speaking in Wisconsin.
Speaker 11: So what we've asked the governor to do is just
give us the data so that we can check whether
you've got illegal aliens on your food stamp roles.
Speaker 12: And he's saying absolutely not.
Speaker 13: And I think the only plausible explanation for that is
that he cares more about.
Speaker 12: Protecting illegal aliens than he does the good citizens of Wisconsin.
Speaker 6: It's a scam and it has to stop.
Speaker 13: So what has the cooperation been like for this effort
to go into these states and root out this fraud.
Vice President's right, especially for programs like snap, where the
federal government funds the programs, but the states administer the
programs and they just get block grants from the federal government.
The federal government at this point doesn't have good insight
into who actually receives this money, and so we've been
asking the states work with us here, show us where
the money is going so that we can ensure that
federal taxpayer dollars are not going to the worst people
in the world. And a lot of the red states
are cooperating. The Blue States are not. And I don't
know what else to infer from the fact that they're
not cooperating other than trying to protect the fraudsters. And
I don't know what to infer from that other than
the Democrats are in on this, and I think it's
a huge problem. You got to ask why Democrat governors
would want to prevent us from finding the fraudsters. And
I think it raises a lot of suspicions about the
Democrats themselves.
Speaker 6: It raises a lot of suspicions about the Democrats themselves.
No kidding, my friends, no kidding, no kidding, no kidding.
That was Andrew Ferguson. He's the White House Vice Chair
of the Anti Fraud Task Force. He was on Fox
Was where you heard that entire bite from. Now I
have look to me, there's a symbols very simple question
that I don't know. I don't know why it is
not being asked when these people appear on the media,
whether it's the Vice President, people in the task Force.
Why isn't Congress the appropriators in Congress that appropriate the
block grants, that appropriate the money that rite the laws.
How simple is it? How simple would it be for
Congress to put as a priority for dispensing of block grants.
Here are the conditions that we're giving you money. We
need a full accounting of where the money goes once
we give it to you. We need an audit. We
need you to turn over the rolls of the people
that you distribute the money to. Otherwise you don't get
the money. It's simple. Congress has oversight of the money.
It boggles the mind that up until now they can't say,
if you want federal money, you have to do reporting
on where the money gets spent. I don't understand, and
I don't understand we they are not sharing it with us.
They're not sharing it with then don't give them the
damn money. If they don't want to give you the deats,
don't give them the cash. Simple. Now, let's see. I
have another one with JD. Vans on the H one
B visa program. There is a big kerfuffle happening in
Washington State. Microsoft let go of about sixteen hundred employees.
There is apparently fury because people in Microsoft outside of
Microsoft are saying all they're doing is dumping these employees
so that they could bring people in on these H
one B visas and have a cheaper workforce. Microsoft has said,
not so fast. We got rid of someome people with
H one B visus too. All we're trying to do
is restructure Xbox. Is Xbox even a thing anymore? Yes,
it's a thing, and they want to restructure it. But
this is a big, big deal in Washington State and
we shall see how that goes. Now. The guy that's
running for the Senate out in Michigan, Abdul l Siei,
who claims he's a physician, even though by the definition
of a physician he's not. But it doesn't matter. He
doesn't have a Nazi tattoo on his chest, so well
that doesn't matter either if he did have one. Anyway,
I cut twelve. Here you go, cut twelve again.
Speaker 14: A billion you have said you want to tax from
the debates.
Speaker 6: Absolutely.
Speaker 14: Is there a limit though, to how much can do
that and actually grow the economy versus stilting enterprise and
things like that. So how do you draw that lot?
Speaker 15: Do we really think that access money to billionaires make jobs?
Because if we really think that, then we've been trying
it for a very long time and I will see
that many more jobs to me, I'd like to tax
them the wealth so we invest in the things that
actually unlock human capital, like healthcare and good schools and
functional infrastructure. If we think that billionaires make jobs with
their money, I think we are going to continue to
find ourselves in an economy where it's hard to make
that first one hundred thousand in way easier to make
that next billion. And I don't want to live in
that economy.
Speaker 6: I want to ask you to go to good schools.
Speaker 2: What does a fair share tax rate look like?
Speaker 15: What's the number I would like to see us tax
billionaires at seven percent of their wealth.
Speaker 6: We want to take seven percent of you well before
the state jumps in, before they pay all the other taxes. Now.
Number A few things about this. If he's saying that
billionaires don't create jobs, how do you think they become
billionaires most of the time. I'm not talking about the
trust fund babies. The ones that actually earn it, and
that's most of them, through work, through setting up companies
that create job, through offering products to the marketplace that
people like I don't see that many. Then you're not
looking or you don't know where to look, which is
even scarier. The second idea that he has, well, we
need the money so we can invest in things like childcare.
We need the money so we can invest in infrastructure.
We need the money. Folks, When are we going to
stop being played by Democrats with this line? How much
money do we already spend on education? There's a report
to came out of New York City the other day.
I have it here somewhere in the back with my
old stacks, and I gotta look for it. New York
has over nine hundred failing schools. New York is one
of the costliest education systems in the world. We already
paid for it, but they don't deliver the quality education
that's being paid for. You look at the money we
spend in healthcare. Look at the trillions of dollars that
are spent over the years in health care. Now to
take the fraud out of it, it's not as if
the government isn't spending money in healthcare. Look at the
money that has been spent on infrastructure. Walk outside your door.
That's infrastructure. The roads under your roads are the sewers
under the roads. Unless you live in certain democrat third
world places, infrastructures all around now is it in the
state of disrepair in some places. Heck yeah, but if
you remember, Joe bite me. I'm just being Joe Biden.
President Biden when he was vice president under Barack Hussein
Obama was in charge of over seven one hundred fifty
million dollars worth of infrastructure. Nobody can tell you where
it was spent, all one or two road projects. Here
where the rest of the money go. Then when Biden
came in office, they did it again. They had another massive,
almost trillion dollar infrastructure program. Where's the money go? We've
been hearing in this song and dance some Democrats year
after year after year, they act as if we're not
paying for any of this stuff now taxpayers, they act
as if the billionaires aren't paying for it. Now they are.
They are charged. Billionaires and millionaires and the top one
percent of the economy pay the majority already of taxes
that are paid in the country. All the stuff has
been paid for and is being paid for on a
regular basis. Where is where the goods? Now? Mister we
need billionaires to pay for everything, pretending that they don't.
Was on a friendly network PMS now and they and
this Simon girl, the one you know the shorthairded One
asked him about his own taxes. Listen to this answer,
cut thirteen, I'll do go ahead.
Speaker 16: Curiousity because I watched it. I didn't watch it live,
but I did watch it this morning. Is that Haley
Stevens has been criticizing you for not releasing your personal
finance disclosure until after the primary. The former strategist in
me is like, why not just release it and take
her talking point away.
Speaker 15: We absolutely will, and we intend to.
Speaker 11: Sometimes finances are complicated and I can only control what
I can control. And unfortunately, when it comes to tax documents,
sometimes they're really complicated to get. We are absolutely going
to release it before the primary.
Speaker 6: Do you hear this double talk from a guy that's
wants billionaires to do? How come you haven't released your
financial documents?
Speaker 8: Oh?
Speaker 6: Well, it's complicated. Sometimes the financials are complicated and we
can only control we control. So here's a guy who's
demanding the billionaires cough up money. He won't cough up
his financial disclosure because he claims that his own financial
disclosures are out of his control. It's complicated. Well, you
know sometimes a tax document will complicated. Well wait, we'll
wait till after the voter's decide. Then we'll release him
because it's too complicated to releass him before we vote.
But we'll figure out how to get the complications out
after people voted. If I win, well what the hell,
then maybe we'll release it. But we're not gonna relationship
before because it's complicated. While he's rag tagging on billionaires,
that should provoke a red flag. I'm sorry. Now, we
have other stuff. You know, the President wants Supreme Court
to do a do over on birthright citizenship. Looking at
the clock, we have a long piece about the Texas
story where a hospital was advertising in Mexico for birth packages,
come have your baby in the United States. Oh yes,
we don't have time for that. We'll I have to
hold it till tomorrow. And I've got more on that.
And we didn't get to the flock cameras, so I'm
gonna hold that too because we're going to talk about
the fly. You know who's involved in this plot flock camera,
think Peter, Theel table. Theel has software companies involved in
some of it. It's these people complain about everything. Anyway,
when we get back, Clip of the day is coming up.
This hour goes so fast. I'm telling you, Ah, James
Golden snurwly with you fast as our American media continues,
still go away.
Speaker 1: The Rush Hour with James Golden entertaining and informative.
Speaker 2: On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
Speaker 1: The Rush Hour with James Golden entertaining and informative.
Speaker 2: On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
Speaker 6: The Clip of the.
Speaker 2: Day you want to hear it.
Speaker 6: Is the clip of the day, Ladies and gentlemen. Today's
Clip of the Day comes to us from Facts Matter.
It's a Facts Matter report on what is happening in
New York. Of all of the stunning and chilling news
that we've covered today, this one, to me takes the cake.
Speaker 12: For the past one hundred and twenty five years, the
Catholic Nuns over at Rosary Hill Home located in Hawthorne,
New York, they've been compassionately caring for the dying. These
women are really the epitome of goodness. They've dedicated their
whole lives to worship and to look after those who
are less fortunate, and quite literally, thousands of people with
incurable cancer have had better dying days because of the
Dominican Sisters of Hawthorne and so here's the question, how
does the state of New York treat these amazing women?
And the answer is the state has instead been threatening
to either close down the hospice and or to lock
up the nuns themselves and put them into prison. Why
because they refuse to use preferred pronouns, to let men
use the ladies room, as well as to undergo training
and gender ideology for all the employees. Basically, they refuse
to follow the state's LGBTQ laws for care homes. And
in response, the sisters have launched a legal battle in
defense of their religious freedom in the face of basically
a newly passed piece of ideological legislation. And now they
have a powerful ally in the form of the Justice
Department having just joined their case on their side.
Speaker 6: It is incomprehensible to me that nuns, the Dominican Sisters
of Hawthorne, actually have to go to court to stop
New York State from trying to throw them into jail
to close down a hospice where these sisters help people
transition from life. You about the most scary thing that
all of us face is our transition from this mortal
shell into the immortal. These sisters give their lives, have
been helping others, and because they won't go along with
this utter madness that you have to recognize some ninety
nine to one hundred whatever it is now different genders
and call people by z z c sis this, that
the other. Because they're trying to force them, to force
them into an ideology that is a political ideology. New
York State is threatening these sisters with jail time or
to close this hospice. It's unconscionable. This is Kathy Hochel.
These are the Democrats. It is insanity. I'm glad the
do O Jason and I think people need to be
outraged by this. I don't care what religion, who you are.
All you have to be is a good human being
and realize how wrong this is. We're gonna leave you
today with Bob Dylan nineteen sixty two. Bob Dylan recorded
this one at Columbia Recording Studios in New York. Blowing
in the wind. That's the story of our lives, and
the Dominican Sisters of Hawthorne are there to help us
people that need the help. God bless them, and my friends,
love and gratitude for your being here. With me, allowing
me to be with you, God willing. We are back
tomorrow for the Friday edition of both regresh Hour My Friends,
