Speaker 5: The Rush Hour with James Golden, entertaining and informative on
the Red Apple Podcast Network.
Speaker 1: Welcome my friends to the post Memorial Day edition, Yes,
after Memorial Day edition about Nearly's rush hour, James Goldan
with you. Eight hundred four, eight to nine, two to
two is the number to call. I hope we might
get a phone call it to and I don't know,
and we'll just leave it at that because we've got
so much stuff.
Speaker 4: That we have to get to.
Speaker 1: This is of course the fastest hour in American media,
and so we will go fast and begin with I
think what would be There are two conflicting themes of
the day in my mind, and they're not for one well,
one is suggery. Thuggery if you watch social media, if
you look at social media as I do. You know,
I was speaking with over the weekend with with Lady Benedict,
and one of the things she pointed out is that
if you really do pay attention to social media, you're
often way ahead now of where the mainstream media is
in terms of stories. You see them first develop on
social media. And it's true now one of the things
that has troubled me on social media, Look, there is
plenty of how shall I put it like this, You
see the best in the worst of American culture. You
see the best of the worst of American cultures, particularly
regarding issues of race. For instance, there was some big
boat thing in Myrtle Beach and I read about it
in the newspaper, and the newspaper didn't give a racial
aspect to it. When I say the newspaper, I read
it in the online news of some newspaper and they
talked about it being a mass shooting. Had to come back.
When you get to the social media, they don't pull
any punches. You look at the boat, it's filled with
black people. It's like, oh, and people are commenting on it,
some in very unkind and unflattering ways. I just saw
within minutes of the program going on an incident that
took place at a school in Georgia.
Speaker 4: You have a school the.
Speaker 1: Principal actually had to get into either defending himself or whatever,
into a It looked like a massive gang riot with
a bunch of young thugs.
Speaker 4: They are black. You look at.
Speaker 1: Incidents that took place in New York, New York, there
was an off duty police officer.
Speaker 4: That was beaten so horribly in a robbery.
Speaker 1: There are pictures of him in the local New York
papers of him in a hospital with his face wollen,
connected to every kind of device needed to keep him
alive at this point. One of this is, I believe
the New York Post today twenty three year old thug
suspected of beating off duty New York Police Department officer
and caught on camera assault is now. This all was
caught on security cameras from somewhere. One of the thugs
suspected of savagely beating and robbing and off duty New
York Police Department cop in the Bronx was busted in
Virginia after fleeing there with his mommy, Yes, with his mommy.
Law enforcement sources said. His name is Tavion Hargrove, twenty
three years old. Twenty three years old already has a
rap sheet with more than a dozen arrests. Was now
by the US Marshall's Regional Fugitive Task Force in North Chesterfield.
The officer, off duty officer that they beat up, was
twenty seven years old. They stole a service weapon and
this guy was picked up and they found him hiding
in a garage at a house. He had been sleeping
on a mattress on the floor. He refused to come
out when the law officers showed rode up, so they
sent it a dog. He then tried to punch the
dog out. That didn't end well. The picture of this
guy has his face bloodied up. This guy should have
never been He was already found with a knife after
he jumped subway turnstile. He skipped out on court appearances
for that. This guy has an arrest record that's just ridiculous.
Speaker 4: But this is.
Speaker 1: Emblematic of the street life that is all too common,
not in just in New York, it's every single Democrat
run city where there is quote unquote and underclass. And
that's the term that's being used now for ghetto, the ghetto.
And let me tell you something, the ghetto do not
have to be synonymous, and being poor does not have
to be synonymous with being overrun with criminality.
Speaker 4: But it is.
Speaker 1: And you look at these thug kids in school that
are just misbehaving. They're not paying any attention to or
at least bit interested in furthering themselves with a decent education,
not at all.
Speaker 4: So school is a.
Speaker 1: Social occasion for them to cut up, misbehave, hangout. It
is not about really taking stock of one's life, even
at a young age. Advancing a plan for success in life.
It's about being. It's a primary course for the street
life and it's ridiculous. Now let us turn, for instance,
to more of it in Los Angeles. This is an
ABC News report cut twelve Carlos and a local ABC
like you know the channel seven in New York is
seven whatever in LA and this is the report there.
Speaker 6: Roughly fifty people vandalized property, including metro trains early yesterday morning.
LAPD officers were lined up in riot gear fired rubber
bullets after multiple warnings to clear this area. No one
was hurt, but several businesses and metro trains were damaged.
There were no arrests.
Speaker 7: We cannot do this this in our city and it
has to be stopped. We have to be very aggressive
about it because we will never send the signal that
maybe this is acceptable behavior. It is unacceptable under any
and all circumstances. And those people that perpetrated this have
to be held accountable to the full extent of the law.
Speaker 4: Right sure they do.
Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, they said, fifty people, that's a bunch
of bulge stuff. There were over a thousand people out there.
It was organized online and I bet the people that
organized it online will never well, I shouldn't say, I
bet they're the ones that should be held to account.
Speaker 4: Businesses.
Speaker 1: It was a riot scene with about a thousand people,
and these people jumping up and down on police cars.
They graffited the police cars. The cops were there. These hoodlums,
these thugs graffiti the police cars and were taking selfies
and taking pictures in front of it. And it wasn't
fifty it was about a thousand, and not one single
person has been arrested in Los Angeles. And yes, if
you looked at the pictures, there were many house shall
we say, a people of Colla, not all because you know,
LA's quote unquote diverse. All right, so now let's we
went from the east coast to the left coast. Let's
come back to the Let's come back to the east
coast again, this time the southern east coast. Here's another
news report out of Miami. Youorami at CBS station there
news for in Youorami. And here's the report. It's self
explanatory almost it is cut number eleven Carlos from Youorami.
Speaker 8: I don't care if she had her gun license, her
writers or any of that day is way beyond.
Speaker 4: Law, way beyond.
Speaker 9: Relatives of seventeen year old Trayvon Johnson are angry. The
teenager was shot and killed last night by a homeowner
who police say was protecting her property.
Speaker 8: He was not closed to guy like this. He had
a future ahead of him. Treyvon had goes. He was
a very funny guy. He was very big on education.
He loved going to school. He loved learning.
Speaker 9: Last night, Miami Dad, police say the Da dors See
Technical College student burgl rise to home south of seventy
ninth Street near I ninety five, just blocks away from
where he lives. Detectives say the fifty four year old
homeowner was alerted of the break in by her security system.
With officers already on their way, She rushed home to
check things out, and police say.
Speaker 10: She was armed.
Speaker 11: She observed a subject exiting the home through the rear.
Speaker 9: According to detectives, there was a confrontation and one shot
was fired. Johnson was pronounced dead at the hospital.
Speaker 8: She did not have to shoe him is no reason,
as she should have waited, and say after he walked
out in the yard, especially already, then why would she
shoe him?
Speaker 9: Relatives say they don't believe Johnson stole anything from the home,
but detectives would not confirm that.
Speaker 8: You have to understand, you have to look at it
from every omb. Chas's point of view that was raised
in the hood. How he gonna get his money to
have clothes to go to school?
Speaker 9: Well, the investigation continues into whether the shooting was justified
or not. Detectives want to remind the public that, if possible,
it's best not to take these types of situations to
your own hands.
Speaker 11: There's any type of situation that happens, or they believe
there's a burgery at their home, or any type of
confrontation down nineber one, have the police go out and
make that confrontation.
Speaker 4: That's what we're here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you heard it right, You heard You got to
understand from all kind of perspective, how are you supposed
you gotta have it from this he grew up in
your hood. How are you supposed to have money to
get to get your stuff? How do you supposed to
have money to get like your clothes for like school
if you don't go out like and rob people. He debted,
there's another way. It's a simple three letter word. It's
called a job. You know, a lot of kids work
after school so that they can have money, like to
buy this stuff without burglarizing people's homes and confronting the
homeowner and ending up debted. You got to understand, like
for all, he like loves school and I'm not trying.
Speaker 4: Look, I don't know this kid, maybe.
Speaker 1: I folks the street life in America if we don't
confront what the real street life is in America, and
there is a racial component to it in many cases,
because it is glorified in the culture, in the music,
the host and has been glorified now going for decades.
America will not be made completely great again until the
street life is dealt with on every coast. These riots
have to stop. It's to smash and grabs. It's the
let's break into somebody house. How he's supposed to have
money and this he steal it. This entire mentality go
to school and beat up your teachers and beat up
your principles. James Goldin s thoroughly keep it right here.

Speaker 4: On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
Speaker 1: Immediate instant correction. TJ asked me, how are you talking
with dead people? Bro, She's been dead since twenty twenty
two oh two. I was thinking of Lisa Lisa, not
Lisa Lopez. I'm sorry. And it's not Lisa Lisa's birthday
to day. It's Lisa Lopez heavenly birthday today. So that's
number one. Number two. Here's Massachusetts. No we got oh,
we got a Massachusetts for you. This is turning a
lot longer than I thought it was. We have an
update from Maryland Representatives Democrat Glenn Ivy, and here it is.
Speaker 12: I'm the congressman that represents Timar. I came all the
way down from the United States after we contacted their ambassador,
after we'd made formal requests through our ambit to the
El salvador In government, and we came here.
Speaker 4: To visit him today. And now they tell us we
got to go all.
Speaker 13: The way back to Tell Salvado in San Salvagore to
get a permit. That's ridiculous. We ought to have a
chance to come in and visit. They knew we were coming,
they knew why we were coming, and they know we
have the right to do this, so they need to
just cut the crap. Let us get in there and
have a chance to see him and talk with him.
Got his lawyer here, got somebody from the union's here
to talk with him.
Speaker 4: Let us in stop playing games.
Speaker 1: Let us have a chance to talk with him. Apparently
he confused as to what country's he has no rights
in El Salvador, his rights and whatever they tell him
his rights are.
Speaker 4: We have a right.
Speaker 1: No you don't. You're in another country, Ambre. All right,
we have to get to Trump and harved is big.
We've got to get to what's going on. Ron Desantans.
I wonder how Princess Diana is going to react to this.
Santas said some things, and I really want to know
what Princess die thinks about it. She's huge fan of
Ron Dessenter's huge, huge But a state senator in Massachusetts
is now pushing for a bill that would create a
government commission so that they could keep track of the
number of miles that people drive. And if you drive
over your allotted miles, you can't drive anymore. You'd be
forced to take a bicycle or public transit where you're going.
Because you know, it's all about climate change. Another, you
don't get to stop paying your car note. We're coming back,
so whatever you do, please don't go away. The Rush
Hour with James Golden on the Red Apple Podcast Network.
The Rush Hour with James Golden Entertaining and Informative.
Speaker 5: On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
Speaker 1: And here is a moment of advice from a lady.
Speaker 14: Of all things, men can't get a word out. They're
just constantly cut off by the women in my life.
And so one thing I learned is when I'm speaking
to a man, when you're talking to a guy on
a date, and he finishes saying something, I silently count
to twenty in my head. Twenty I count to twenty.
Speaker 4: What happens in those twenty seconds?
Speaker 14: Men always have more to say and women always want
to fill that space. And I've said this to friends
and they're like, well, then when do you know when
they're done? And I've told them, men will tell you
when they're done. They'll literally be like, yeah, that's it,
and then you know it's your turn. It is transformed
my life because there was so much I wasn't learning
from men in my life because I'm was like, like,
that's how we are and that's also not a bad thing,
by the way, it's just how we.
Speaker 4: Are, Okay. I mentioned Ron DeSantis.
Speaker 1: Princess Diana has very a soft spot in her heart
for Ron Desantus, and he must have a soft spot
in his heart for our princess, because our princess last
week talked about how Congress was slow rolling the Trump agenda,
and I just wanted to so a week after that,
here's the governor, governor of the state of Florida, and
he also had some things to say about Golden on that.
We'll get into that tomorrow probably or over the weekend.
But anyway, Ron DeSantis cut four on what is happening
in Washington.
Speaker 15: And deficit is a tax on you. It works its
way through the economy. There's no free lunch, and that's
what ends up happening. And it's a little frustrating.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 15: Elon Musk went into this doje effort. He was getting
lamb pooned. I mean like they're firebombing his Tesla dealerships,
media smearing him relentlessly. His business has suffered all this
stuff because he basically said, look, we can't keep doing
this and we need to moderate and reduce the amount
of money that the federal government is spending, and yet
we have a Republican Congress and to this day, we're
in the end of May, past Memorial Day, and not
one cent in Doge cuts have been implemented by the Congress.
That's one of the reasons why we need a balanced
budget amendment to the US Constitution. That's another reason why
we need term limits for members of Congress. But I
think what you've seen with how and I kind of
said this early on that Doge and Elon were on
a deion course with the swamp, and the question is
what would happen. And I don't think there's any question
that Doge fought the swamp, and so far the swamp
has won, and that's just unfortunate. But I don't think
you can look at this any other way. So this
is hardwired into how the people in Washington are borrowing
and spending your money. But it has huge implications for
the viability of our economy, our country and everything going forward.
And you know, don't tell me it can't be done.
When I became governor. So if you look at Florida's
been a state for one hundred and eighty years, If
you look at all the debt that's been accumulated over
our entire history of statehood. Just since I've been governor,
we've paid off forty one percent of it, and we're
doing more every every day. So that's not adding to debt,
that's reducing debt. We have the lowest per capita debt
of any state in the country. And if you looked
at what your share as a Florida resid that it
is for our outstanding state debt, it's about four hundred
dollars a person. What is your outstanding share for the
US federal debt, It's like one hundred and five thousand
dollars a person, and escalating ours is declining.
Speaker 4: You also look at Florida.
Speaker 15: We have the lowest number of state employees per capita,
don't have a big bureaucracy. We are also the second
lowest in terms of spending per capita of any of
all the fifty states.
Speaker 1: So quite a lot there to digest. But I just
wanted to point out that Governor Descientists agrees with Princess
Diana and agrees with the sentiments that many of you
have that are just very disappointed in what's going on
with the slow action that we're getting from the Congress
of the United States despite all this big beautiful bill business,
and the Senate is already lining up to do their
best to put a few knives in Donald Trump political
knives in Donald Trump's back over the big beautiful bill
that is going to happen. There's an interesting piece today
and sent Dentily Bs's Well GOP Strategists predicts Democrats winning
the House in twenty twenty six could actually kill them
in twenty twenty eight. Politically speaking, Representative Jasmin Crockett said
on Sunday on the alex Wit is her first name,
dim No the alex Witt reports that if Democrats were
to regain a majority in the Chamber, they would go
after Donald Trump again.
Speaker 4: We have that.
Speaker 1: Actually that's cut number thirteen, Carlos, And this is what
Jessmin said.
Speaker 16: Do you think they're next year of the House and
or Senate. Do you think they're going to push for
investigations into Trump's family and the whole crypto acquisitions that
he has getting.
Speaker 17: Well, Alex, I'm glad you asked listen. So long as
we end up taking the House, which I fully anticipate
that we will do, and we are gonna work hard
to obviously help our Senate colleagues as well. Then, as
someone who serves on the Oversight Committee and hopes to
lead the Oversight Committee, I can guarantee you that we
will do what we are supposed to do as constitutionally
swarn members of the House, which means that we will
conduct oversight. That means that we will investigate. We will
look at whether or not this president himself has violated
the emoluments clause as relates to say such things as
getting a four hundred million dollar plane from the Qataris.
We also will make sure that we're looking into all
these business deals that they have going on. I mean,
think about it this way, Alex. They were going after
Hunter because he sat on a board. Think about how
much money they are raking in. Whether we're talking about
the next golf resort that setting up in Qatar, or
whether we're talking about them leveling gaza as they've talked
about and talked about how it would be great beachfront property,
whether we're talking about this crypto scam, the scam that
people didn't even want to walk into and show their faces.
Let me tell you there is no shortage of things
for us to dig into and determine whether or not
there have been not only violations of the law, but.
Speaker 1: Okay, wow, wow, wow, why why? How would you like
to listen? How would you like to have to wake up?
Never mind be nice James Anyway, The GOP strategist Alex
Castoranos said if Democrats get the House back in twenty
twenty six, they're damaging because guess what Trump is ahead.
He was on with Mark Helprin and we love Mark
helpern over here. He was on with Mark Helprin. He
says political money for Democrats, big little one. He said,
Trump is the leader of the Democrat Party and he's
going to be more so there's no oxygen other than him.
If he says, if Democrats win the House, it keeps
Democrats in the past because they're just going to be
fixated on Donald Trump, is his point. And as long
as they're fixated on Donald Trump, they will never figure
out what they need to do as a party to
move their party forward. Now, I don't think we should
be looking to give up the House under any circumstances.
I think there's a big case to make by the
way this stuff we have with Harvard issues. Here's a
lot going on with this Harvard stuff, and I want
to get to it today. But if I don't get
to it today, it will hold for another day because
there are some other things that I want to go
over with you. For instance, Minnesota, Tim Wats and this
is what I mean by Democrats. Tim Walls has been
out running his mouth. This representative from Minnesota, Pete Starbard,
was on a program and he confirmed some of the
things we all knew about the leadership.
Speaker 4: But listen to this.
Speaker 1: In under a minute, he gives you a good grasp
of what's going on in Minnesota, home of Tim Walls.
That would, if Democrats had their way, be the Vice
President of the United States.
Speaker 18: Right now, Governor Walls and the trifecta in Minnesota, the
last legislative session gave illegals free health care it's called midcare,
free driver's license, and free college tuition. Now we're out
of money. Minnesota's out of money. It was eighteen billion
dollar surplus and Walls urinated it away to a six
billion dollar tax increase on Minnesota's Now it's a legislature
where the Republicans they're half and half in the House,
so they have to work in a bipartisan way. Right now,
Governor Walls understands we're in dire straits. He now wants
to rightfully sow kick or get rid of illegals on
Medicaid minnesot And there's his base is they're protesting him,
et cetera. I mean, in my opinion, Governor Rawls has
been a really, really a disappointment. And that's the best
I can say for Minnesota.
Speaker 4: And I will tell our listeners today.
Speaker 18: That you ought to appreciate Minnesota because we took one
for the team last selection.
Speaker 4: I want to come back and thank you.
Speaker 1: That's really I want to go back before we run
out of time to something I talked about earlier, and
that is I'm sorry, folks, what is happening on social
media that incident in LA where you have a thousand
of these hulums out in the street. You look in
New York, the horrible, horrific beating of this police officer
by these thugs. This thug life is everywhere, and I
mentioned in the first hovel and it has got to stop.
Speaker 4: I don't care if we have to build.
Speaker 1: Multi tiered prisons that are is big as the biggest
commercial warehouses that we have in America to house these
thugs and then get them off the street. It has
got to stop. And then Princess Diana sent me something
and I'm so glad she did it, and of course
she has such a beautiful heart. She says, it's a
terribly worrisome development. She says, here is a terribly worrisome development.
Black fatigue. It's a term originally meant for being tired
of small acts of racism, as experienced primarily by African Americans,
but she says not it's going viral, especially in the
last few months, primarily among white people who are expressing
being tired of the inner city thug culture.
Speaker 4: This is not good. And I have seen this all
over the place. It's like black fatigue.
Speaker 1: And then they show you this is exactly what I
was talking about, These videos of these people in these
people in stores assaulting fast food workers because they they
are not satisfied with their order. The gang life in
schools with these people beating up Nobody covers the incredible
amount on black on white crime that happens in schools
with black gangs beating up white students because it doesn't
fit the narrative.
Speaker 4: Of what racism is. But it is going on. I
can bring you viti, I can bring you audio, and
some of them are so vile.
Speaker 1: I don't do it.
Speaker 4: Of this abject racist.
Speaker 1: Hatred for white people that is being spewed all over
social media by black people, no one calls them out
on it, and it is vile. And then you've got
white folks joining in twenty two twenty two, just real quick,
as an example, you white mother have.
Speaker 19: No dame applauding all the illegal deportations of Hispanics. Hispanics
are being deported even when they are legal US citizens,
and you white mother are applauding this shit. This is
no different from the time when schools were desegregated and
you started throwing rocks at black children.
Speaker 4: You guys have no shame. You are beneath doctor.
Speaker 11: All of you.
Speaker 1: This is everywhere. It's everywhere. But this thug culture again,
we saw it in Los Angeles. You see it in videos,
and you not. You're not gonna see it reported in
many newspapers because a lot of American newspapers are not
they know what this looks like and they are not
reporting it. But where you do see it and you
see it first is all over social media, and it
is coming from every single blue state, big concentration of
populations inside these inner cities all over Americans. And I
don't princess I says this term, the development of the
term black fatigue is it's a worrisome development. It's to me,
it's a realistic development. People are fed up with it.
They're fed up with looking at a culture that is
slowly but surely devolving and taking with it any semblance
of pride, taking any semblance of fail and is taking
any symblance of wanting to be a better culture. Instead
it appears to be. And that is not the full
scope of black culture. But that aspect of it that
is on social media, that is being portrayed for the
world to see, is not being challenged by the people
that should be challenging it. These so called leaders that
supposedly are the leaders of these communities, and they're not
saying enough is enough.
Speaker 4: They're not saying it's time.
Speaker 1: To stop it and say what we get that audio
that I paid the first audio today with this young
girl saying, you know, he gets to pay to seek
thing from honest perspective, He from the hood, how he's
supposed to get his money, how he's supposed to get
his money if he's not stealing it from somebody. This
has to be addressed in American society, folks, and it's
going to be a painful It is going to be
a painful reckoning because this is all built on the
victim hood mentality and the entitlement mentality that democrats have
forced as part of the membership of their ideology. We
have to deal with Harvid tomorrow. James Golan slnly.
