State regime media, which calls itself Fox News, was in crisis mode and they are predicting massive losses for MAGA Republicans in the midterms. Even state regime media Fox could not hide it. You have Laura Ingraham, one of the biggest MAGA Trump propagandists. She says, we are in a lot of trouble, folks. There are a number of states that Republicans better get their act together. We're talking about losing Iowa, folks. Yep, state regime media in panic mode on live TV. Let's play this clip.
But I do think Ned's right that there's some of these states like Kansas and Mississippi, uh, that are gonna sneak up on Iowa. Yes.
Yeah, I think there are a number of states that Republicans better get, get, better get their act together. Iowa is one of them. Ned, Michael, both of you, thank you.
Then one of the guests on this Laura Ingraham propaganda show says, Republicans are whistling past the graveyard, Laura. We think we're gonna do fine. We aren't. We're gonna get wiped out in some of these seats that people think are safe Senate seats. Democrats are surging ahead. By the way, did you all see the latest polling in Arkansas where the Democratic candidate is leading Tom Cotton? Democrats can flip Arkansas blue. Texas blue, Michigan can stay blue. You've got Ohio going back to blue. I can name every other state, but you get the point right there. This is North Carolina, Florida. I can keep on going, but let's play this clip.
And I think this is one thing that, you know, we're 10 weeks out from today from the midterms. I think Republicans are kind of whistling past the graveyard on some of these Senate seats that they thought were safe, whether it's South Carolina, whether it's Alaska, whether it's Iowa, whether it's Nebraska. Ohio. I— we gotta, we gotta kick it into gear over these next 10 weeks, or we're looking at not only losing the House but losing the Senate as well.
How many times have you and I talked about this, Ned, where it's like, like, I mean, watch Paxton in Texas. I don't even see him campaigning at all. Is he campaigning? Like, I haven't seen much of his campaign. I mean, I guess he's hoping Trump and Elon Musk save him, but he better get going in Texas.
This is the thing that concerns me. I think there's a great deal of apathy with some of the candidates, but what concerns me even more, Laura, There's real apathy in the grassroots. I think some people are thinking we gave Republicans all the power in '24— House, Senate, White House. It really didn't follow through on some of these promises. The Senate's thumbing their nose at the base over the Save America Act. Gas is $4.10 a gallon. You know, they're not seeing a lot of the things that they voted for. The Iran war is killing us. And we're 10 weeks out. And the problem that we have is that Trump's base is mid to low prop. It's tough to get them out in a non-presidential year. So Not only are we suffering on the issues, we're suffering on just a basic turnout. And they're really low propensity voters, which means it's gonna be hard to get them to the polls November 3rd unless we give them a real compelling cause to.
Yeah, how about not having socialism? That's a compelling reason. And we don't want the border reopened 'cause we just deported the highest number of illegal aliens in the history of the Trump administration this past month with 50,000. That's not bad.
And then on state regime media Fox, they're like, what the hell is Donald Trump doing with Canada? They're like, Trump's approval is 33% and getting lower. Prime Minister Carney's approval is 75%. Donald Trump can rant and rave like a lunatic and claim that Prime Minister Carney's not popular in Canada. Prime Minister Carney is beloved in Canada. He's like one of the most popular leaders right now in the history of Canada. Donald Trump has the lowest approval at this point since Nixon, and Nixon resigned. And so the state regime media Fox hosts here are saying Trump's got big, big issues, and this trade war against Canada, the stupidest thing he could possibly do. Here, play this clip.
The president went to Truth Social saying, I would never interfere with Canadians speaking French. In fact, I have never even thought of doing such a stupid thing. This lie was made up by a weak and ineffective prime minister in an attempt to gain political support. At what point is it that Canada's politics are preventing this, Leslie, and that despite the fact that Chris says it's stepping on politically his own foot, that this is the president pushing back on unfair practices?
Well, look, if we're going to look at some of the things we don't like, whether it is, you know, the craziness with China, you know, when it comes to Canada, or even just smaller things like Netflix penalties, you can do this without renaming lakes and you can do this without imposing tariffs which do hurt not just the Canadian consumer. American consumer. But, you know, Mark Carney has a 75% approval rate. Donald Trump has a 33% approval rate. And what you said about tourism, Florida, they're now going into their 3rd quarter down in tourism. And that's a red state. Right. But if you talk and try— stop taking my talking points. I was going to talk about Maine. I was going to talk about Michigan. Let's talk about Iowa. 30% of its exports are to Canada. They're our number one trading partner. They're an ally. with the fires, Afghanistan, the list goes on. They've been there and have helped us. We shouldn't be having this type of fight. You can have a conversation without doing this. And by the way, I have a t-shirt that says it's still the Gulf of Mexico. I guess I got to get one for the lake now too.
Maybe so. Maybe so. All right.
Then state regime media had a guest on who pushed back forcefully against the weird state regime media distraction operation where they talk about that former NBA player Enes Kanter Freedom, who showed up at the WNBA match and he's like, I'm a woman, everybody. And he started like mocking the women WNBA players. And he's made himself like the central figure in this like bizarre narrative. I'm protecting women. I'm protecting women by going into the WNBA stadium and mocking the women players and behaving like an absolute psychopath. I mean, what the hell are you doing? But I'll tell you what, this guest on State Regime Media Fox said it better than me. Play this clip.
Why are we intellectualizing or trying to intellectualize this publicity stunt? It's pathetic. It's ridiculous. What are these guys even trying to do? I really don't get it.
Well, they're trying to call out— they're trying to play by the WNBA's rules.
Come on, guys.
It's exposing the nonsense.
Look, you have a policy that you can't say what a woman is, but you have 2 men that are trying to— that are pushing back against that, and they're the ones that are being silly.
No, it's exhausting. If they wanted— this guy, whatever his name is, wants to be Big Willie, he should support and fight for bigger salaries for female athletes and for the coaches. So, so I don't get that.
What's actually exhausting for a lot of people is men taking over women's sports. And then in yet another stunning moment on state regime media Fox, they revealed that JP Morgan is predicting that as a result of Donald Trump's failed policies, the United States and the rest of the world could be thrust into a global food crisis because of Trump's catastrophic war in Iran, and his other international failures. Play this clip.
What about another concern? Corn, soybean, wheat conditions are all deteriorating, and JPMorgan is warning of a potential global food crisis. Uh, could this be the beginning of that, Scott?
Well, they say it is. I mean, they, they'll make the argument that we're already starting that. Um, we've had some trouble this year with our crops. Mother Nature has not been complying as well. It's not a disaster by any means, but it's just not what we thought we were going to be getting. But the real key here, for the first time in a long time, Ashley, is the fact that we've got a problem with logistics. So weather is taking a backseat. Logistics around the world has slowed up. I mean, we've heard about the Straits of Hormuz, but we've got another issue in the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov with the Kerch Straits. We've got problems there with wheat and All— both of them have problems with fertilizer. And when we don't put down as much fertilizer, guess what happens to yields? So this is a cascading effect— event. So this is a logistics issue. It's a weather issue, geopolitical issue. And they're all kind of stacking up, unfortunately, for the perfect storm where JPMorgan sees food inflation at 5% next year. So that's not good. That could be a problem if we get any real big hiccups with Mother Nature.
And if you're saying, Ben, can it get any weirder than this? Am I in the Twilight Zone watching this video? I'll say, actually, He then had Jesse Watters saying Abdul El-Sayed is a compelling individual, a guy's guy. He said, I like him. Meanwhile, El-Sayed's opponent Rogers is too scared to show up on state regime media Fox. Here, play this clip.
In this case, I thought the interview was fine.
He was—
I thought it was compelling. He's a confident guy, kind of a guy's guy, but I don't trust him.
You know, I like him.
I don't want to like him.
I like him for some stupid reason, but he's not right for Michigan.
And Jesse Watters throughout the evening. Again, Jesse Watters is a vile human being. He's one of state regime media, Fox's biggest propagandists. His mom's a Midas Touch fan though. Shout out to her. Um, but Jesse will, and she knows that this is some bizarre act by her son, Jesse Watters. Um, but he's making a lot of money doing the act, I suppose. And then, uh, remember she warned him the first day and she's like, Jesse, don't, be a propagandist conspirator. I know, I know she's watching this video. She watches the videos all the time. Anyway, Jesse's like, I actually like Abdul. Here, play this clip.
I actually like Abdul. I probably shouldn't like him, but I do. I think he'd be a terrible senator and he's a little bit of a lunatic, but at least he's not your typical stiff. Hakeem talked to Kushner because he wanted to help the country. Abdul talked to me because he wanted to help Michigan and himself. And we all learned something— that I'm circumcised.
I'm pretty sure everyone has had that moment where the car starts making a noise it definitely wasn't making yesterday, and immediately you start to think, so how much is this going to cost me? I'm in the car constantly, including with my family. The idea of getting stranded somewhere and then getting slammed with a huge repair bill is not exactly appealing.

D-A-S. More from Jesse Watters over here saying, uh, I guess because of my interview with Abdul El-Sayed, everybody knows that I'm circumcised right now. Here, play this clip.
Plus everything.
Well, I guess everybody now knows I'm circumcised.
Nothing left to say, I guess. I'm writing that down.
You know, usually you look at the headlines and if your headline is all about your penis, Usually you've done something very wrong. Uh, in this case, I thought the interview was fine.
And you may recall that you had Jesse Watters bringing up genital mutilation and bringing up, you know, all these Fox hosts continue just to talk about like penises and vaginas like all the time. And they like misconstrue the issue. That's how they kind of phrase everything. And so Abdul El-Sayed is like, okay, you, you want to talk about like circumcision? Like what the hell are you even talking about? Like, and Abdul El-Sayed's point is like, what are we even talking about here? Okay, I'm being elected to be the senator of Michigan, and I'm trying to focus on the issues that people in Michigan are facing. And you want to talk about like WNBA? You also want the government to be the genital police? You want government— like, what are you saying? You want big government to make— to inspect people? I mean, what, what, what, what, what are you— what's the MAGA position here? Here, play this clip.
We've decided he's just weird. They say sex sells, but this guy seems just obsessed with it.
Are you circumcised?
Yeah.
Yeah. But I mean, that's a personal question. Okay, doctor, you probably should want to move on. You probably should want to move on.
A circumcision is different than castration. Then Sean Hannity continues to— that was Hannity over there. More from Hannity over here saying one of the issues that seems to be— that bring all— that brings all the Democrats together is a dangerous obsession with trans kids. But do you see what the— I want you to see the state regime tactic here. This is all they talk about on Fox, and then they bring on a guest and that's all they want to talk about. And then if you push back a little bit, they're like, oh my God, why are you saying these things? Because all this is all you talk about. If you watched Fox, all you would, you would think the biggest issue is something about Enes Kanter Freedom and WNBA and Sophie Cunningham, and that there are all these transgender women in the WNBA. There's zero. There's quite literally, there's never been a transgender woman in WNBA. And I'll tell you what, there's a lot of right now in the United States, uh, broke people. I'll tell you what, there's a lot of right now in the United States. Uh, people who are suffering right now, who can't afford gas, who can't afford diesel, who have lost their jobs, who can't afford rent, who can't afford a home, who have had their healthcare ripped away.
That's what you want to talk about— real things that are impacting the American people. So stop freaking bullying the transgender community. Just stop bullying the community. These are human beings, damn it. Stop making up fake issues. But you know, they don't want to talk about what's happening in real life because that's an acknowledgement of what I shared with you at the beginning. that Donald Trump's policies have been absolutely catastrophic. So here is Hannity, though. Let's play it.
And tonight, one of the issues that seems to bring almost all Democrats together is a dangerous obsession with trans kids.
And then more from Hannity talking about ding-a-lings or something. Here, play this clip.
You know, when I started in this business, um, in my Mid to late 20s.
I never thought this— we'd be talking about ding-a-lings.
I just—
it was unfathomable. It's kind of sick and getting sicker every day.
And then Dana Perino is like, I do want Abdul El-Sayan to come on again so we can really ask him more questions about windmills and if he thinks Enes Kanter Freedom should play in the WNBA. She's not joking, by the way.
This is—
she's being— this is what they want to talk about there. What they don't want to talk about is how most American people right now don't know how they're going to pay rent that next month, or they open up their fridge here and they go, can I do— is there anything going to be left in my fridge? Am I going to have to not go to the doctor? How am I going to make my kid, uh, food for lunch? when these— and the government's taken away lunch from my kid, and they said that my kid's involved in waste, fraud, and abuse, and they've taken away programs that help my kid get lunch. Here, play this clip.
And it is going to be the Senate race to watch. I do hope that he comes back because Lake Michigan— I wanna hear more about windmills on Lake Michigan. I wanna hear about getting rid of the Second Amendment, and I wanna know if he thinks Enes Kanter Freedom should play for the WNBA.
Great.
And then you have this, uh, Will Cain Show, and he brings on Jaime Harrison, and then he starts to ask Jaime Harrison all of these questions. And they want to like ask like WNBA and, what do you think about the DSA? What do you think about Sophie Cunningham? What do you— what are you like, uh, should transgender women be playing in the WNBA? Or like, what do you think about this? Uh, oh, that's a good question. Shut up. No one cares about this stuff.
Okay.
You know what we do care about? Treating human beings with dignity, treating the transgender community and all different communities as human beings, damn it, because they are human beings. Empathetic. Stop this weird obsession. All these MAGA Republicans wake up and they think about transgender people all the time. What do you think? Why don't you— why don't you mind your own fucking business? And excuse my language. Why don't you mind your own business? And why don't you just, you know, let's keep government out of it and focus on, you know, focus on you. Focus on you and stop being so frickin mean. Here, play this clip. You invite somebody to come on your show to talk about the South Carolina Republican primary, and you don't even talk about the South Carolina Republican primary. This is the reason why you guys are just—
No, no, there's no, there's no, there's no, there's no reason.
Don't invite me to come on your show to talk about what— listen, Jamie, don't invite me to come on your show about the South Carolina Republican primary. Jamie, you spend all your time talking about TSA.
Listen, listen to me for a second.
Listen to me for a second about the DSA. Invite—
All right, I'm gonna have to cut you off, Jamie, while I'm about to tell you. If my staff told you— Jamie, you can't hear me while you're talking. If my staff told you we were gonna talk about the Senate in Republican— the Republican primary, then I apologize. I was under no pretense that I'd be talking to you today about a Republican primary. I don't know why I would book a former Democratic— all right, I'm gonna have to I have to cut you off. We're talking at the same time. It does nobody a service, not you, not me, or not the audience. But I would never be interested in hearing from a former DNC chair. Thank you, Jaime Harrison. I appreciate the time. I would hope for us to go better in the future. I would never book the former head of the DNC to talk about a Republican primary. What expertise or insight could I possibly hope? But while the Democrat Party goes through a fundamental transformation, whether it's—
Yeah, sorry, I cursed there over there for a second. And then finally, you have the MAGA Republican Senate candidate in California, um, whining about, oh, they're gonna ballot harvest in California. I'm gonna lose because of the ballot harvesting. Dude, just again, just shut up. Stop whining. Just address the issues that people care about and are concerned about, you freaking loser. Here, play this clip.
Exactly. I mean, look, she should have come here because listen to the language there in court, which was depositing absentee ballots not belonging to you. That's legal in California. It's called ballot harvesting. It's the law. It happens the whole time. It's well documented. You've got unions running around collecting ballots in nursing homes. You saw it filmed on Skid Row. I mean, this is what they've done and people call it cheating and all the rest of it. It's been legalized. You have legalized cheating and corruption.
Anyway, there you have it, folks. Let me know what you think. Hit subscribe. Let's get to 7 million subscribers. Sorry, I cursed before. I usually don't curse. Just came out.
