Hey, it's St. Patrick's Day everybody. Everybody's favorite excuse to just get drunk. I mean, that's really what it's all about.

2:01I think there's a story about a saint who chased some steaks out of Ireland and everybody uses it as an excuse to get drunk. And I used to be one of those people who got drunk on St. Patrick's Day. I don't want to take away from your revelry here. But I'll tell you where I live right now. They've made this into like a month long holiday of drunkenness by the way. Literally, I think two weeks ago, a week ago, not this last weekend, but the weekend before they had a St. Patrick's Day parade here in Northern Virginia where I live. And then this weekend, I'm walking around downtown and they had a massive park and pub crawl and another St. Patrick's Day this last weekend. And then today is St. Patrick's Day. So I mean that you want to talk about a week long bender for God's sake. Anyway, I actually kind of made St. Patrick's Day a Jewish holiday this weekend. I went and got some corn beef. And did you know that if you smoke corn beef, you make pastrami. So I made pastrami this weekend. So I was like, you know, I don't know, Jewish Irish men or something this weekend.

3:04Anyway, welcome to the show. Please come and say a lot of stuff going on in the news. Joe Kent has decided to resign because he's conscious won't let him, you know, partake in the government anymore because of the Iranian mission. And he said, after much reflection, I've decided to resign for my position as a director of the National Counterterrorism Effective Today. I cannot even good conscious support an ongoing war in Iran, which has lasted two weeks. You idiot. Iran pose no imminent threat to our nation. Yeah, they did. Joe. And it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel. And it's powerful, man. I got to tell you. Is this, is this some sort of Candace Owens sexually transmitted disease or something? Is it what? Is it some sort of if you eat it? You know, it's like, I don't know, you know, that's like a zombie movie, right? You know, he did just kind of spread you're like, what the hell? And now Alex Jones now is all suddenly here, you know, because he's a nutbag anyway. And he's like, I'm no longer the mega coalition has fallen apart. And then you got other people, you know, saying the mega coalition that is falling apart and all of this.

4:11And all these these conservatives, these supposed conservatives who aren't really conservatives, suddenly saying that the mega coalition is falling apart, which is absolutely crap, honestly. And you know why I know it's absolutely crap, crap, be crack could be crack because Candace Owens and Alex Jones think that Joe Kent is making a good decision. Two weeks into one of the most successful military missions in American history and American military history that has literally on the verge of freeing hundreds of millions of Iranians, at least a hundred million in the country of Iran. And and celebrations around the world because Ding Dong, which is dead, 47 years of of attacks on America and other countries, a body count of mile long to 50,000 terrorist attacks from Iran. And here's old Joe Kent saying, I can't I cannot in good conscious support the most successful military mission against an evil regime that was a threat to the world who literally said in negotiations.

5:15We have enough uranium for 10 nukes and and Joe Kent, he and his in good conscious, I don't know what kind of consciousness he's got. I don't even know if he's conscious at all, but there you go. Joe Ken has decided not to not to remain a part of with his position and and other people like Candace Owens are backing him. So I really don't have a lot of respect for any of it. And by the way, for any of those of you who think that the mega coalition is crumbling. And honestly, really, really after all we've been through, do you really think Joe Kent, resigning from him, his position is going to mean anything? Do you think that MTG, Marjorie Taylor Greene, leaving Congress and saying that we shouldn't have gone after Iran? It means deward for Richard to any of us. No, not one little bit. Okay, mag a GOP on the US military action to run. Look at this nearly 9 and 10, 89% approve of the US military action around that is the mag a GOP base.

6:18Just 9% disapprove of it. This is tremendously popular among the Republican base. And of course, Marco Rubio, Secretary of State overseeing the effort. It seems to me that a lot of people are taking that into account, including President Donald Trump, who has been smiling an awful lot at Marco Rubio lately. Yeah, there you go. So yeah, we're 100% behind this because we are, we've always been patriots and we see what our military is doing. We see that they're in harm's way. We see that they're performing their actions flawlessly. We're seeing that they've basically inded Iran's ability to launch drones and missiles. The neighbors around Iran are saying that Iran needs to be driven into the into hell analysts analysis. Gulf states press the US to neutralize Iran for good as Hormuz, Hormuz crisis deepens the Gulf Arab states. Excuse me, did not ask the US to go to war with Iran, but many are now urging it to not to stop short by leaving the Islamic Republic still able to threaten the Gulf oil lifelike.

7:23Well, their joke can't. It looks like they're kind of a threat to a whole bunch of people here. And the economies that depend on it, three Gulf sources told Reuters. The sources in five Western and Arab diplomats said Washington was pressing Gulf states to join the US Israeli war. There is a wide feeling across the Gulf that Iran has crossed every line, every red line within every Gulf country. Chairman of the Saudi base Gulf Research Center and familiar with government thinking said this is name is Abdulaziz Seger. President Trump urges countries, including China to assist in securing oil passage through the Straits of Carmen. See, this is what happens on a weak-willed people, you know, are in positions of authority. And Joe can't honestly listen, he's been through a lot of stuff. He served the country honorably, but to throw the administration and our soldiers under the bus in the middle of a very, very well performed military service.

8:23The action is really kind of despicable to be quite honest. And I think it really exposes your true colors. And also I want to mention, again, if Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson and Alex Jones are on your side, you're on the wrong side. Okay, so you're on the wrong side. Here's Mike Johnson being asked about Joe Kent. Resigned as the director of the counterterrorism center. He wrote, it cannot be conscious of what the ongoing and more in Iran. He writes, Iran posts no imminent threat to our nature. It's clear that restoring this one due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. How do you respond to that and to those other Republicans who say that this war is actually putting foreign interests above domestic interests? Well, that proposition at the end is clearly wrong. I'm on the gang of eight. I got all the briefings we all understood. There was clearly an imminent threat that Iran was very close to the enrichment of nuclear.

9:24They said they had enough uranium for 10 bombs. Ability and they were building missiles at a pace that they had missiles could actually deliver to. Not only here, but all over Europe and whatnot. That no one in the region could keep up with. They were far outpacing our allies and friends and us in our defense capability because we had personnel installations. Members of the Armed Services and civilians in the region. Iran was building up ballistic missiles at such a rapid pace and we knew that their plan was to fire them upon Americans. The Commander-in-Chief and his administration had a very difficult decision to make. I don't know where Joe Kent is getting his information, but he wasn't in those briefings clearly because the Secretary of State, the Secretary of War and everyone, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Cain, they had exquisite intelligence that we understood that this was a serious moment for us. Had the President waited, I am personally convinced that we would have mass casualties of Americans, service members and others,

10:24and our installations would have been dramatically damaged. And so we had to, the President felt that he had to strike first to prevent those mass casualties. Yeah, and it's about damn time. And I support this President 1,000% going after Iran. I was alive when the Iatola took over. I have been alive since then, obviously, and I have seen massive casualties, massive amounts of attacks on the world with regard to terrorism. And of course, Iranian proxies in our country right now, performing acts of terrorism as the Democrat Party defunds the DHS. So honestly, as far as Joe Kent is concerned, Joe Kent can kiss my butt, honestly, just utterly, utterly ridiculous. And this, I've never seen anything like this in my life that we would have so many people, because Donald Trump is the President, be willing to betray so many, so many people who are working so hard, you know, the fact that there is celebrations around the world for the fall of the Iatola.

11:32We should be, everyone should be dancing in the streets knowing that SOB is dead and his son is on life support and gay, by the way. We'll get to that in a few minutes. But I have never seen this sort of abandonment in my life. And as far as anyone, 90% of us, MAGA, people are supporting this action because we know it's the right thing. We love our country. We know that to survive another 250 years, we need to take down the forces of evil that have been trying to take down us. And honestly, on days like this, when people like Joe Kent and Candace Owens and Alex Jones abandon the movement, it only strengthens our resolve, because we've been through so much in the last 10 years. You have no countenance whatsoever. You have no balls if you are just willing to, less than two and a half weeks into an incredibly successful and beautiful military operation that is taking evil people out of power, that you would just abandon it. And say that it wasn't necessary. Really shows you and puts a spotlight on your character. That's it. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show.

12:39The Rob Carson Show podcast is everywhere. Go to newsmax.com slash listen for details. You begin tonight with the gay of Hormuz and the straight son. I mean, the straight of Hormuz and the gay son of the former Ayatollah who is now in charge of Honest Mistake. Seriously, President Trump, though, was brief that Iran's new leader, Comedy, is probably gay. Which is why his dirt and that father feared his suitability is dirt and that father. According to sources, the president couldn't help but laugh at the analysis and the administration officials. Find the news hilarious. As do I mean, not analysis. It's an analysis. The queers for Palestine might be a thing. There you go. There you go. That is Carl Higby talking about the new revelations that maybe the reason why the the firmer Ayatollah who's now a powder didn't want his son to be the new Ayatollah is because apparently it looks like he could be gay. That's not a big thing. That's not a good thing in the Iran where they throw people from tall buildings for being gay.

13:39Fortunately, all of the tall buildings no longer exist in Iran because we bomb the snot out of them. So there you go. But that is one of the rumors that's going around is that the Ayatollah, the son of the Ayatollah is actually gay. And apparently he's not in a bunker. He's in the closet. It's it's yeah. Donald Trump burst out laughing when he was briefed that he runs incoming supreme leader. Haveen, he may be gay sources told the New York Post intelligence suggesting Mochaba is a homosexual raised doubts in his father. The late Ali coming a mind about his suitability to succeed him. Others in the room bounded hilarious and senior intelligence officials have not stopped laughing about it for days. Lauren claim was called corroborated by two intelligence community officials and a third person to the White House. America spy agencies view the information as credible intelligence. This is real here. Rather than gossip designed to undermine the 56 year old ruler. Mochaba had a large term sexual relationship with his childhood tutor.

14:44Yeah. He's teaching the subject of school boy fantasy. Third source said intel indicated the affair was in with a person who used to work for the commanding family. Mochaba, whatever his name is, is understood to have been gravely wounded in the strikes that kissed his, killed his father on February the 28th. Apparently he made aggressive sexual passes at men caring for him potentially due to the effects of sedation. Okay, sure. I know how many times I've waken up from a trip to the dentist and I just I want some some hot man action. Sure, whatever. The US has no photographic evidence, but sources insist the insell is bona fide. Bonified with one saying it was derived from the most protected source from the government. Another source said the intelligence would not have been presented to President Trump if there wasn't some confidence in this. So nobody's saying, well, yeah, your gay, it wasn't like that. It was like, no, dude, really? Seriously? Apparently he's super gay.

15:44Allie committee was aware that his son had issues in his personal life. He was also wary of Mochaba taking power because he believed he was unintelligent, but I might add very well-dressed. Very well, and when you think about it, honestly, long flowing robes, no pants, head, head, head gear, you know, sure, sure. Rumors about his sexual orientation have circulated in Iran since at least May 24th when a helicopter crash killed President Emraham Reisi, who had been the favorite to succeed the supreme leader. His father's another's expected he was gay, and that was something that people were spreading to try to stop his ascension. There you go. So there you go. Looks like the supreme leader is not in the bunker. He's in the closet. He is in apparently a coma, and he is super gay. So there you go. Thought you shouldn't know. You know, Rob Schmidt and the Newsmax crew have been a stellar job of what's going on in Iran. And you talk about Donald Trump, and he's always been kind of this person. A lot of people think he's some sort of a compulsive individual.

16:51But actually somebody who is more deliberate than I think we've had in office in a very long time. Rob Schmidt last night did a great report on Donald Trump, and how he has been saying and talking about the same thing with regard to the country of Iran. And it's danger to the free world since the 1988. So I'm thinking it's maybe not, you know, because Israel is forcing his hand. Trump wants to remove the most radicalizing government in the world. And our allies, of course, would prefer it if we could just handle this on our own. Trump says it'll be a bad future for NATO if they don't help get this straight open along his side. And resurfacing over the weekend evidence that Trump's position on Iran has been steady for decades. And all the way back to 1988, nearly 40 years ago, Trump saying, I'd be harsh on Iran. They've been beating us psychologically, making us look like a bunch of fools. One bullet shot at one of our men or ships. And I do a number on Carg Island. I'd go in and take it.

17:51What? Iran can't even beat Iraq. If they push the United States around, it'd be good for the world to take them on. Wow, he's been saying that since 1988. So so much for the Israel forcing his hand on this. And again, it's been working absolutely beautiful. Greg Kelly last night, he is a Gulf War veteran, Afghanistan war veteran. I believe is what he is. And he said last night, and listen, I would trust Greg Kelly more than anybody that two and a half weeks in when people are jumping ship like Marjorie Taylor green among others. Greg Kelly says it's real close to being over. You know, I think we kind of just won the war as a real possibility of, did you see it? They gave us pretty much everything we want. The Straits of Hormuz, if you listen to these Iranian guys, they said what we wanted to hear. And if they actually live up to it, and that's a big if, right, because you can't trust these people.

18:54And could all blow up all over again. A couple of things. I think it's a damn shame that we have people two and a half weeks in that are so weak. Wild that they would abandon this president who has been through so much to be the leader of this country who has exposed so much fraud, who has exposed so much malfeasance, who has had every branch of this federal government against him. Trying to put him in jail, take his fortune, get him off the ballot, raid Marilago, two impeachments, and then tried to kill him twice. And I got to tell you, Margaret Thatcher used to say, he said this to Ronald Reagan. She said, don't get wobbling. And in people like Marjorie Taylor green and Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson and Megan Kelly, they're all posers. And I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that they haven't lived the life you and I have.

19:58I was talking to someone yesterday about, about Tucker Carlson. Tucker Carlson, the reason why he's off the, off the reservation on everything is because he's a spoiled entitled blue blood private schoolboy from the East Coast. And he's never lived the life that you and I do. He doesn't, he's not grounded in common sense. He's not grounded in hard work. And consequently, when the going gets tough, they abandon their principles fairly quickly. You and I are not that way because every single day we fight for the scraps that we get. And we do everything I can we can to make a living in this country. We've never had everything had to do us on a silver platter like Tucker Carlson. And consequently, we're a bit more resolved when the going gets tough, right? Right? Yeah, I think we are absolutely 100%. So there you go. On the way, Donald Trump the other day said to you know, he's ready to take Cuba. And then all of a sudden Cuba's power grid just completely collapsed. How did that happen? Maybe it's by design.

20:59We've got details on that coming up. This is the Rob Carson show. Hey guys, it's Carson for Shopify. You know, for years I had a swag line of T shirts with catchy phrases and whatnot.

Okay, Mac a GOP on the US military action to run. Look at this nearly 9 and 10 89% approve of the US military action around that is the Mac a GOP base. Just 9% disapprove of it. This is tremendously popular among the Republican based on of course Marco Rubio, Secretary of State, overseeing the effort. It seems to me that a lot of people are taking that into account. Including President Donald Trump who has been smiling an awful lot at Marco Rubio. You know, there's a lot of people who are and have been shouting us down for about a decade now. Calling us bag of fascist enemies of democracy and all of this. And I got to tell you the level of vitriol we've received our military since we began this campaign to take down the IOTOLA

23:09after 47 years of war against us in the Western world. It is it is remarkable. And you know, when I was out this weekend, I noticed these immediately on day one of the of the epic fury. Chris Murphy said it was a disaster. They they had these hands off Iran protests, which are the same people who did no kings, which are the same people who did Elon Musk. Because of Nazi, which are the same people who've done every other damn leftist protest supported by a Neville Singham and George Soros. Astroturf nonsense. I confronted some this weekend. It's not a popular movement. It's never been a popular movement. If it were a popular movement, where's no kings? No kings had one weekend. Shut their water. It's over. No kings is no longer. So it is it doesn't make any difference at all. And you and I are resolved and you as I are not going to let them take away from our belief in the country is founded and our military as they do an amazing job.

24:12Because there's a real good chance that you know someone who is in the military, who is in action right now, or maybe has a kid who's in action right now. And doing a really, really, really, really good job. This is Representative Gabe Evans talking to John Solomon about how it's going in Operation Epic Fury. Well, you know my back story. I spent 12 years in the US Army and the Colorado Army National Guard deployed to the Middle East. Actually, like this is a big part of the mission set that we had when we were over there in 2012 and 13 was countering Iranian aggression in the region. So both as a Black Hawk helicopter pilot and also as the intelligence officer for my battalion. I'm pretty familiar with what's going on right now. And honestly, I'm actually impressed and surprised with how easily we've been able to degrade and destroy Iran's air defenses. Why did Joe Kent then say that he could no longer in good conscience be a part of this this administration working with Tulsi Gabbard.

25:12And then be able to move on to other targets, their launchers, their manufacturing capability for drones and for ballistic missiles. Being able to identify and target their small boat fleet, their waterborne IED capability through the Persian Gulf or the when we were deployed. Yeah, we're kicking butt. The Arabian Gulf and the Straits of Hormuz. And so honestly, I think that the military is, as the president said, it is ahead of schedule. The operation is going at least equal to or better than the plans. And unfortunately, you just have very loud voices in the United States that can never be proud to be American. They can never root for America. We've seen it before literally rallying in the streets talking about freeing Palestine when Hamas was committing terrorist attacks. Hamas has been on the State Department's terror watch list really since that watch list was conceived. So you have a loud far left socialist group of folks that typically align with the Democrats. I told you all the last couple of years, if you would listen to the show and many of you are new by the way.

26:16No stream today, by the way, we got some issues with the stream. Like Joe Biden does it two in the morning. It's kind of weird that way. We are on all of our analog stations, all of our great radio stations around the country. But I told you that we were in the throes of good versus evil. I said that for every action, there's an equal and an opposite reaction in that evil had run rough shot over the world and over our country, by the way. And we were the reaction to that. But do you think that evil is going to just go down without a fight? Do you do you do you believe that? I mean, look at what's going on right now. We're going to get to this as the show progresses. Look at the fraud that is happening in our country. Look at the fraud that has been uncovered. You know, the reason why the left had these massive protests against Elon Musk. Elon Musk was never a Nazi. Elon Musk was not a Nazi. Before he took over Doge, it became a talking point created by the left to cover up what the Democrat party and a good deal of Republicans have made our country into.

27:20And that is a giant piggy bank for themselves and their acolytes and their donors to the tune of trillions and trillions of dollars. And you'll notice that the reaction to Elon Musk last year at CPAC when he brought out the chainsaw and see he was going to go after government waste. And all of a sudden the left was mobilized against him for going against government waste. Like when has that ever been a bad thing? When has it ever been bad for you to go after waste, malfeasance and corruption? But like what's going on right now? All of a sudden taking down the Ayatollah is bad. All of a sudden bombing drug boats bringing poison to our country to kill our people is a bad thing. All of a sudden out of nowhere, even though Joe Biden up the bounty from $5 to $15 million on Maduro in Venezuela, all of a sudden it's a bad thing that we got rid of Maduro. There are seen some people now who after 67 years of totalitarianism, of starvation, of abuse, of arrest, of imprisonment in Cuba,

28:30there are some saying that it's a damned shame that Cuba, the communist Cuba, is going away. They are on the wrong side of history. They are the evil. And I'm glad that all of this has been exposed. All of this fraud has been exposed. And I told you that the Democrat Party and the left were doing a death spiral into hell. They die like movie vampires, dragging, kicking and screaming, trying to drag us into hell with them, and we're not going to go with them. They are on the wrong side of history, and we are on the right side of history. And as we expose all of this fraud, all of this corruption of the deep state, what we're doing is we're clearing a path for another 250 years for our country to survive. And nobody said it was going to be easy, right? It's been really hard. The last 10 years have been really, really hard, really hard. And, you know, when Donald Trump won again after all that he put us, or they put us through,

29:32and all the things that he went through, we knew they were going to keep scratching and clawing and biting and doing whatever they could to fight him, no matter how good what he is doing is for us, clothing, closing the southern border, completely closed our southern border. Our southern border had been open wide open, and a Trojan horse of our country's enemies had been allowed to come in, wholesale, without screening, without, and we screamed to high heaven about it for four years, and they acted like it wasn't happening, and Donald Trump stopped it. And there's no doubt that was good. It saved our country. But the people who had other plans for our country, the people who wanted to destroy our country, they were very disappointed in it, because their plan suddenly stopped. And now that Donald Trump is in office, they are still doing everything they can to just be counter what this administration is doing,

30:34no matter how good it is, including liberating the people of Iran after 47 years of tyranny, and the people of Cuba after 67 years of tyranny. We are not going to give up. We are going to overwhelm them with joy and patriotism. I'm going to handle the mockery ridicule and satire, and Donald Trump will handle the butt kicking. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show. Hey guys, it's Carson. I just got a ghost bed. Yeah, no, no, no, no. Pay attention here, because I've been sleeping on a phone mattress since I moved to the Washington DC area, which is like sleeping on the sponge in your sink. Ghost beds doesn't build mattresses like furniture. They build engineered sleep systems. Their beds are serious health equipment. Bed's designed for relief and recovery, not looks, not fluff. Your body should be healing while you sleep, not fighting for comfort. I have been sleeping past seven in the morning on my ghost bed. It's unbelievable. If you wake up stiff, you toss and turn.

31:40If you sleep hot, even reaching for a pain reliever before bed, hoping tonight will be different. That's not aging. It's your mattress talking. Another great thing I love about ghost bed, you get 101 nights to try it at home. If you don't like the difference, you can send it back risk-free. Ghost bed is offering my audience their lowest prices of the season, plus an extra 10% off. Go to ghostbed.com slash Carson, use promo code Carson. That's ghostbed.com slash Carson, promo code Carson. You are going to love your new ghost bed. Come off me. Come on. Stop moving. Got to get me there. Having said Patrick's Day, did you wear green? Welcome to the show. Joe Kent has decided to resign from a physician as director of national counterterrorism center effective immediately. Two weeks into our military campaign against Iran, which is wildly successful.

32:42Here's the president talking about this. Well, I read his statement. I always thought he was a nice guy, but I always thought he was weak on security, very weak on security. I didn't know him well, but I thought he seemed like a pretty nice guy. But when I read his statement, I realized that it's a good thing that he's out, because he said that Iran was not a threat. Iran was a threat every country. It realized what a threat Iran was. The question is whether or not they wanted to do something about it. And many people, many of the greatest military scholars are saying for years that president should have taken out Iran because they wanted a nuclear weapon. They were, if we didn't do the attack, or if I'll go a step further, if I didn't terminate the Iran nuclear deal given to us, one of the worst deals ever made by Barack Hussein Obama. Remember when they said Boeing 757s over there? Loaded with cash. Hundreds of millions of dollars. You would have been very happy. This was a wonderful, they said hundreds of millions of people forget that. Does anybody remember?

33:47I remember. Hundreds of millions of dollars in a Boeing 757. I think that two of them loaded. They took the seats out and they put cash. And it was so much that there wasn't a bank in Virginia, Maryland, or DC that had any money left. They stripped them of all their money, put it into place, sent it. I wanted to get us absolutely nothing. Absolutely nothing, by the way. This is Brooke Goldstein talking about the obvious good that the United States was doing with regard to Iran, which we regard to Cuba with regard to Venezuela, all of these things. And the people who are casting stones at it. Freeing the Iranian people from this is slomest regime that has held them hostage since the 1970s and killed their children is a human rights obligation. While Iranians are celebrating on the streets of Tehran, they're celebrating in New York.

34:51But they're not celebrating on American college campuses, are they? Celebrating in Washington DC, the prospect of their own. Where are the women's rights groups who are out protesting the Iranian women's soccer team who did not sing their national anthem? And the Iranian regime said, when they said they were going to defect, we're going to murder your families until you come back. So these brave women who not only stood up against this despotic regime by not singing their national anthem. Now they are sacrificing their own lives to save their families. This is the kind of stuff that mafia do. This is the kind of stuff that they do. You come back here so we can kill you or we're going to kill your family. And what's going to happen is they're going to go back to Iran and they're going to get killed and they're going to kill their family anyway. Where are the women's white rights groups? Where are the women? The Democrat women are so concerned about women.

35:56So afraid that women aren't going to be able to vote because you're asking for an ID. Not saying anything about the freedom. Freedom. We have Democrats. We have human rights pundits. We have left-wing media have the arrogance to call the attack against Iran a human rights violation. And those same people who are criticizing President Trump. Iran killed 35,000 of its own people, unarmed slaughter for protesting against the regime in the last month. Right now, like you said, we're silent. When over 30,000 Iranian civilians were slaughtered. When women were subjected to mass... This Democrat party and the left would have demanded the Berlin Wall be put back up again. I'm not exaggerating. They would have. They would have said that China's reaction to the protests at Tiananmen Square was just.

36:56That's how much things have changed. And their bodies were mutilated. When children are murdered and they're dying, bodies left to freeze in more. These people were absolutely silent. How arrogant of them. And I have yet to hear a coherent argument from the left as to why taking down the Iranian regime is wrong other than I hate Trump and I hate Israel. Ding, ding, ding. There you go. And the Democrat party has gone way anti-Semitic. I'll have to dig for this, but I saw that Israel only, I guess, enjoys 12% Democrat support. And if I'm not mistaken in history, when people lean into socialism, they become real anti-Semitic. There was a guy, what the hell is his name? He had a funny little mustache. He was a little short guy. And then he became the chancellor of Germany. He took over Germany as a socialist. He had a party. He was called the German socialist workers party is what it was.

38:00And then they just came all sorts of anti-Semitic. And that kind of weird. Because we've also got a guy in New York City who calls himself a Democrat socialist. And he's also an Islamist. And he has been long on the side of radical Islam. And his said, basically, you should globalize the Antifada. Do you kind of recognize a pattern here? Do you kind of recognize a pattern, Democrats? This is a path that you're traveling that has been down before. And I hope you don't wake up. No, you will wake up on the wrong side of history on this one because it has been done before. We're going to head it off this time at the past. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show. Get us Rob Carson Show. We are doing broadcast radio. The stream is down today. We had some technical issues. Part of that could have been the weather we had last night. It was a little nasty on the East Coast.

39:01And we had some high winds and some pretty serious rain and all of that. I don't know why, but the schools got called out yesterday. I mean, my God, can you kids not go to school when it's a little bit of rain, a little bit of rain? You know, they have these little little tornadoes out here. They're F1s. I'm from Iowa. We go out and dance around in those. They're like little dust devils. You know, we don't get too worried unless they become EF3s or EF5s. But anyway, the schools were canceled for some. And it looks like we might have some technical difficulties as far as the stream is concerned. We hope to get that going again. Hope to get it going again. Gold just a 60 cents away from $5,000 an ounce. If you would have said this nearly two years ago, nobody would have believed you because gold was $2,500, $2,600. Now it's just I have $5,000. It's a lot of global uncertainty out there. But one thing is certain, gold is valuable. Gold is valuable. And gold prices have been remarkable. Gold is still set to gain 20% above current prices in 2026, according to UBS. Gold has always had value.

40:09And you can look at crypto and you can look at all these other things. But maybe it's time for you to consider gold as part of your awesome portfolio. You know that I deal with Birch Gold. It's a wonderful organization. Trustworthy. They have my money, by the way. And you can learn more about gold just by texting my name Rob to 989898. Rob to 989898 for Birch Gold. And they'll just give you information. No obligation whatsoever. But I would consider doing it while it's below $5,000. Because who knows what's going to happen. Hugh Hewitt was on Fox last night talking about this Carg Island. We decided to go after Carg Island. Now Donald Trump's being very strategic about this. He's leaving the oil infrastructure for the people of Iran to use after the the despotic Iranian regime is removed, by the way. Which could happen very soon. They are teetering on absolute defeat. Here is Hugh Hewitt with his thoughts on Carg Island.

41:09Carg Island nothing is easy, but our military is extraordinary. You've been covering it for 25 years. What they have done in the last 16 days to shock and awe all of our adversaries around the world. I can't overstate how much safer the world is that today than it was 16 days. And it took like 12 days for some people to bail on support of our military in their finest hour. You know, and I think what President Trump has done. He's been very tough, very ruthless about this. And I want him to continue to be that will be the most ever known as there was not this kind of counter-walling, even a decade into Afghanistan, which was a quagmire significant decision of his presidency. It will make the world much safer. It is weakened the alliance of tyrants with Russia, China, North Korea and Iran. And the end game is, as Dasha said, unknown, but we are in a much, much better place as Secretary of State Rice, former Secretary of State, said on a Hoover Institution podcast. We have been at war with these people for 47 years.

42:13President Trump told the trigger on a can that had been kicked down the road to mix my metaphors for a very long time. I'm glad he did. Yeah, me too. And again, where was this kind of counter-walling? Where were all of these people 10, 12, 15 years into Afghanistan? They weren't there. You know why? Because Donald Trump is the president right now, and they don't want him to win while he's in charge. Secretary, I can come back. Hour number two of the Rob Carson Joes right ahead.
