(upbeat music) - Live from the Aviva Trataria Studio, it's the Grace Curly Show. - We gotta bring in a new voice, a young voice, a rising voice, Grace Curly. - You can read Grace's work in the Boston Herald and the spectator. - Well, you don't want too much Grace. - Here's the millennial with the mic. - Grace Curly. - Grace Curly. - Grace Curly. - Grace Curly. - Let's bring in the host of the Grace Curly Show, Grace Curly. - You either have Grace or you don't. - Especially Grace, Grace stand up. - Grace Curly. (upbeat music) - Welcome back everyone to the Grace Curly Show. I just wanted to give you a little update on what is going on with Hamas. Hamas political leader Ismail Heineye was killed in Iran. This was the guy, cause I saw the photo of him today and I was like, I know, I know I've seen him before, not just in photos, but there were some video that went viral and then I remembered what it was. This was the leader who, he was touring a hospital and someone came up to him and told him his three sons had died in an airstrike and he didn't even, he was just non-plussed. He just kept, kept moving throughout the hospital. He was like, okay, I'm gonna just kept moving. So he was killed also, Hezbollah commander was killed in Beirut yesterday. - Bye bye. - Yes, bye bye. And I wanted to read this headline from the Wall Street Journal. Usually the Wall Street Journal is actually fairly decent. I would say there, it's really hard nowadays to call any. - I wouldn't start out defending any publication really. - Most publications are bad, but compared to like the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal tends to be a little bit more moderate. All I'm saying is I'm shocked to see this headline pass through the editors of the Wall Street Journal. Strike in Iran kills Hamas. This might be like austere religious scholar status. Strike in Iran kills Hamas's leading advocate for a Gaza ceasefire. I know what you're gonna say, like it's factually, it's probably not incorrect, but it's a horrible headline. Like none of these Hamas leaders are arguing for a ceasefire in any serious way. There was a ceasefire in October 6th, like taking a Hamas leader's comments about a ceasefire and actually considering them in any way, shape or form and not understanding that it's just a tactic that they use to try to prolong their war, to try to prolong, you know, torturing these hostages. If you're hearing that and you're not immediately like, wait, what? I just, I'm shocked it's in the Wall Street Journal. - When somebody has a gun to your head, of course, you're the person that wants a ceasefire. - He's the leader of Hamas. I gotta read that again. Strike in Iran kills Hamas's leading advocate for a Gaza ceasefire. - Bye, Bing. - Oh no. Oh no, the leader of Hamas is dead. How will we find peace now? How will we come to a resolution without the leader of Hamas there? I'm always amazed though, because maybe it's now it's in the digital era where people are just, you know, trying to get things out as quick as possible. I'm always amazed how many things make it to the front page and that, you know, and then they get all this backlash. It's like the other day with the Washington Post. They had the picture of the mourners from Golan Heights, where the Hezbollah rocket killed 12 children in Golan Heights, and the headline did not match up to the photo at all, and it actually made Israel out to be the villain in this. You have people there mourning children who are killed in a soccer field, and Israel, based off the headline, was made out to be the aggressor. That to me was like, well, it's the Washington Post, you know, it's austere religious scholar. This one, striking Iran kills Hamas's leading advocate for a Gaza ceasefire. Oh boy, someone's getting a talk into today, I have to imagine. Now, speaking of what's going on in Israel, I wanted to play just a little bit of sound here. This is Zack Sage Fox. Kind of confusing 'cause he works for Fox, but he was with Fox Digital, and he was able to go into the West Bank and interview some of the people there, and I think this is very informative. For anyone who is arguing that the Palestinians are completely separate from Hamas, and I understand why people do that, because of course there are innocent people there, but you're also, you're kind of dismissing how pervasive the ideology of Hamas is. Hamas was elected by the people there, and from all the polls, which of course, you have to take with a grain of salt, but a lot of the people, a lot of the Palestinians in this area, they do support Hamas, and trying to make it seem like it's a totally separate entity, or they have, you know, that they have no, Hamas has no support from the people there, is just dishonest, so I wanted to play this. Let's have Zack Sage Fox cut 11 in the West Bank. - And I was specifically looking for younger people thinking like, okay, someone here's not gonna support Hamas, and they all do, like the most moderate person I interviewed in the whole day, who's on that camera, his, the most moderate answer was like, you know, it's not, what did he say? He's like, you know, you have to see the bigger picture, it's not Hamas's fault. Like, that was the most moderate answer, I don't know if that guy was a die-hard Hamas fan, but even he refused to blame Hamas for anything, they're not the problem, you know? Like, so it really ranged from sympathy to actual love and admiration for Hamas, that that was the range we were in here. And it was, it was pretty shocking. - Yeah, yeah, well, it's not shocking to me because I have read a lot about that, but let's play a cut 12. - Are you supportive of Hamas? - Yes. - Yes, of course. - Yes. - Are most Palestinians? - Yeah. - Palestinian people who like Hamas. - I'm with the resistance. - Did you see the videos they posted of what they did on October 7th? - Everything. - And you're okay with all of it? - With everything they did. - They killed innocent Israelis, they killed-- - Yes, they did. - No, no, yes they did. - Give me a picture for rape. - Do you think Hamas should release the Israeli hostages? - No. - No. - No. (laughs) - Nothing's named Israel. - There's nothing named Israel? - Yeah. - The Quran mentions Israel over a hundred times. Is Palestine mentioned in the Quran? - No. - No. - Yeah, so it's not as black and white as the media might want you to think. Ethan, you're up next on The Grace Curly Show. Go ahead, Ethan. - Hi, yeah, I'm Jewish. I plan to vote for Harris. Apparently, President Trump thinks I'm crazy and I need to have my head examined, so I'd like to hear you. If you agree with President Trump and why you say that, he says that. - I don't really know you, Ethan. I would say the reason he probably says it is because the Democrat party has made it pretty clear at this point that they are in support of these, I would say, young people, but a lot of them are even older, who are going around cheering on Hamas, who are chanting things about Jews, things that I find kind of abhorrent. So I think that's why it's like you're almost supporting this party that seems to not care whether or not you cease to exist. - Within a few far left nut jobs like Ilhan Omar and AOC and Bowman or whoever, what Democrats are supporting pro-Palestinian groups? - You just said a few nut jobs. Those are people, those are sitting members of Congress. - Yeah, they're a few nut jobs. - Yeah, they're far left progressives and Kamala Harris is the most far left progressive, she's more far left than Bernie Sanders. You don't think that she's gonna align with them more than she's gonna align with a moderate Democrat? I can't even think of an example of a moderate Democrat. Let's say Ro Khanna. You think she's not going to align with the further left? - Has Biden and Harris not been giving tons and tons of weapons and money to Israel? - Biden has, I don't know how much Kamala Harris has anything to do with it. She seems to want to distance herself from this entire administration. But Kamala Harris, if we're going to take Kamala Harris at her actions, she didn't feel it necessary to show up for Bibi Netanyahu's address to Congress. Does that not signal something to you? - Even though I lived in Israel and I have lots of family there, yeah, I don't think we need to support Netanyahu in Israel, but we cannot give him a blank check and just say do whatever the hell you want. - What does that have to do with him? What does that have to do with showing up and listening to him speak? - Well, she met with him. She didn't show up and hear him speak, okay. - Did you hear her comments after she met with him about a two state solution? Did you hear those comments? - I'm sorry, what comments? - Her comments after she met with Bibi Netanyahu about a two state solution. - What does she say about a two state solution? - That she thinks that that's the way forward is a two state solution. - Ultimately it is because what people need to realize is unfortunately, if Israel can't find a way to have peace with these maniacs, and that's what they are, they're disgusting sociopathic maniacs, but if Israel cannot find a way to have peace with them, unfortunately, I'm not sure Israel's going to be a viable country in 30 or 40 years. - I've found, I have to step in here. I have found over the years that Israel has done so much as far as trying to find peace with these people that you describe as maniacs. And up until October 7th, I think they were making a valiant effort in that peace. Obviously that was broken when these savages came in and started killing Jews and beheading them and all sorts of things. But I just, I don't know how you find a two state solution with people whose main mission is to eradicate you from the earth. - Because Israel's a country of roughly, I think, seven or eight million people. They're surrounded by like, I don't know, a hundred billion Arabs. And if they don't figure out a way to get peace with the Palestinians, and again, I'm saying this as a Jew, as someone who lived in Israel, as someone who was family in Israel, okay, and that is served, they're not gonna be, it's not sustainable. They're not gonna exist. The technology and the weaponry, the gap is getting narrowed every year. The gap that Israel had over the Arab countries, 70 years ago, was much, much bigger than the gap today. It's still big, but not as big. And it's gonna keep shrinking. So they can't find a way to have peace with these maniacs. I'm not sure they're gonna be around in 30 or 40 years. - Well, an issue I have with this whole conversation is that the goal right now of the IDF is to root out Hamas. And it seems like every time they try to do that, they are somehow portrayed as the aggressor or the antagonizer. I think it's very fair that if a group of savages comes in and kidnaps people who are having breakfast in the morning and like hanging out with their kids and they take the toddlers and then they take the moms. And now we're being told that, oh, this is a war they can't win and they shouldn't be going after these Hamas leaders. And there's this push from not just Democrats, but from the media that Israel has to not defend herself or lay down her arms or just take it. And I just don't believe that. I don't believe that either. Of course they have to defend themselves. So should Netanyahu and Israel just make Gaza a parking lot? Just make it a parking lot. Just kill them all, make it a parking lot. Should they do that? Maybe the answer is yes, I don't know. Should they do that? - I don't know. I don't think that's the answer, but I will say that I would rather support candidates who are not trying to draw this moral equivalence, which I think Kamala Harris is. I really encourage you to look at her comments after she spoke with BB Netanyahu, drawing this moral equivalence between people in Israel who were sitting around on October 7th and then had their entire lives turned upside down with these barbarians that are in Hamas. I just, I can't stomach it. And I'm surprised you can't even, I can't. I'm not you. - Yahoo. - If Netanyahu came out and stated, our goal is to make Gaza a parking lot. We're gonna kill all the Palestinians. - He's not gonna do that. He's not gonna do that because you know, Ethan, that the IDF goes above and beyond trying to limit civilian deaths. So he's not gonna do that. So I'm not gonna play this hypothetical game of, if he does, what would you say to that? I don't answer hypotheticals and that one's outrageous because you know it's never gonna happen. I appreciate Ethan, I am running out of time here and I do have a library. But if you wanna call back, I mean, I tried to be as respectful as I can. I understand you're Jewish and you're able to stomach some of the anti-Semitism coming out of this party and you're able to vote for it. And that's fine. If you want someone like Kamala Harris who's gonna draw moral equivalents between Israel and Hamas, that's up to you. You can live with that vote, that's not my problem. I don't have to tell you what I would say if BB Netanyahu said I'm gonna make Gaza a parking lot because one, he's never gonna say that. You know that, I know that, everybody knows that because Israel has to play by a whole different set of rules than Hamas does. And you keep voting for people who feel that way, who feel like it's always gonna be Israel's fault, don't come crying to me. That's my only point. Thanks for the call.

Today's poll question, which you can vote in at gracecurlyshow.com, is who has the better fake southern accent? Kamala Harris or Hillary Clinton? I have heard both. We've played a few cuts throughout the course of the show. I'm going to say Hillary. Hillary's hard to beat. 80% say Hillary Clinton. 20% say Kamala Harris. I don't think we've played the Kamala Harris cut. Let's hear Kamala. Give it her best go. And you all helped us win in 2020. And we're going to do it again in 2024. [LAUGHTER] What about-- Yes, we will. Yeah, it doesn't even come close to Hillary, though. Hillary is in no ways tired. I don't feel no ways tired. And that's the goal. Come to far from where I started from. Nobody told me that the road would be easy. I think Kamala's is better. Oh, no, I love that. Well, Hillary was so committed. She didn't dip in and dip out. She was like, I'm going for this. I think Hillary's was more pandering and less accent. It was more affectation, like that energy. She was in front of a black crowd, and she was quoting a famous gospel song. And Kamala Harris just went for the accent, 2020 follow-up. Yeah, I'm just-- Hillary has my heart. You can argue all you want, too. I'm not disagreeing with you. That's on the record. Hillary has my heart. Let's go to Brian, your next step on the Grace Curly show. What's going on, Brian? Hi, Grace. Thank you for taking my call. I'd like to address your last caller. Sure. And he put it out there. I happen to be a Jewish person as well. And one of his comments was, well, other than a few radical politicians who in the Democratic Party is anti-Israel or pro-Hamas, how about Kamala Harris' stepdaughter who was born with Jewish men, supposedly, but is on the record as saying, I'm not Jewish. I don't consider myself Jewish. And she's been raising millions of dollars for Hamas. So how about that as pretty close to home, Ethan? That's number one. Number two, in my opinion, if you're a Jewish person and you're still voting liberal for these people, in my opinion, you're either suffering from cognitive dissonance or you're a self-loathing Jew, which is one of the worst things that you can be. But cognitive dissonance, big word, simply means more important than anything to you is to vote Democrat. Facts don't matter. Reality doesn't matter. What's happened, past history doesn't matter. Under President Trump, Ethan, peace was breaking out all over the Middle East. Iran was on the verge of bankruptcy and making a deal. Who do you think is funding all of this, Ethan? And instead of making it more complex and saying, oh, and 30 or 40 years, oh, they may cease to exist, why not deal with the reality of the situation, the Democratic Party is no friend in general with their policies to Israel right now. President Trump is... Yeah, and the only thing I'd add in, Brian, an excellent call is he's had 30 to 40 years. Well, if we keep going at the rate that Kamala and Joe Biden are pushing, it might be a lot shorter than that. I'm glad you brought up Trump, though. We'll talk more about that when we come back. (upbeat music) (upbeat music) - Live from the Aviva Thratria Studio. - Welcome back everyone to The Grace Curly Show. I thank you so much for joining us. By the way, anyone who's on the line who had a reaction to that last caller, Ethan, and we will go back to that later on. So don't panic, you can always call back. Right now that I'm really excited about our next guest and I want to get right to it, Jennifer, all of her O'Connell, who we've had on the show many at times before, is joining us to talk about a few different issues, but I want to start with the Black Journalists Convention, which has sparked backlash for the strangest reason. So Jennifer, I guess it's tradition that the candidates running for president get invited to this convention. And so naturally, Donald J. Trump was offered an invitation. He accepted. And since then, it appears as though the mainstream media is melting down over the fact that Donald Trump is going to attend the Convention for Black Journalists. Give us a little rundown of what's happening here. - Yeah, thanks for having me on, Grace. It is definitely a meltdown happening, but not necessarily the mainstream media. I don't think the mainstream media cares because basically it's black people tearing each other apart, so leave that alone. Trump was invited and accepted the invite. He recognizes that blacks are not necessarily happy about not only, they weren't happy about Biden, but they really aren't happy about the switcher, Rue, despite the gas lighting that's going on from the mainstream media. And so he gladly accepted this invitation to the National Association of Black Journalists. It's something that they do for every presidential candidate. They've done it far back as the early 2000s when George W. Bush and H.W. Bush were around. So there's nothing unusual. They also invited Harris. And at the time that they announced that President Trump would show up, they said Harris is pending. In the meantime, we've discovered that Harris refused and she even refused a virtual invitation. So, you know, again, why are you having fits? You're able, first of all, the complaint among particularly African American journalists is that we don't get access. They're getting access. So you take advantage of that access. If, oh, he lies in gas lights, then ask some tough questions or expose that. But the purpose is you've got them in the room and you've got questions, do that. But you have a contingent of finalists like Roland Martin and April Ryan and several other people who are, you know, decrying this. And this is awful. And how dare we allow this insurrectionist on the stage when, but you said she wanted access. And the problem is the Democrats have used black voters and wrote on, I mean, look at that show last night in Atlanta that they put on, you know, you give us a show, but you don't give us any deliverables. So why don't you find out where the Trump has deliverables for the black community? - Yeah, and there's something else about the way this is being framed online, the criticism of having Trump speak at this, that this doesn't just happen with the black community. It happens with all sorts of different communities where if he goes to speak to people, the argument is, oh, you're platforming someone who's and you can insert whatever you want, like who's racist, who's xenophobic, who's sexist. And the idea that you're giving this person a platform, to me it also says it's more importantly, it's insulting to the people that are seeing this person speak. It's saying about those people that they can't be trusted to form their own opinions or to listen to someone and disagree and, you know, not have it change their minds. It's this fear of, oh, no, if we allow him to speak, then maybe we don't control the narrative or he's gonna break through in some way. Do you think there's any part of it that's related to that? - That's spot on, it's about control. They no longer control the access to the information as they have in the past. Thanks to social media, you know, even though they tried very hard to restrict us, independent journalists and people have found ways on the internet, on social media, to get that information out there. This is why you've got all of these videos showing, hey, Kamala Harris does have a record and it was really bad. Here's exactly what she did say that wouldn't have happened five, 10, 15 years ago. They used to be the gatekeepers and now the gates are broken and they don't like it. - By the way, if anyone wants to read any of these pieces, it's at redstate.com. Jennifer does an amazing job and not only giving her point of view, but also incorporating, you know, all these different social media posts and hot takes from people and kind of breaking them down. So that's where you can read that. You just mentioned, Jennifer, you said that the black community, and obviously, it's not everyone in the black community, but there has been some pushback against what you called this switcheroo. I think that would be surprising to members of the Democrat party that even though Kamala Harris, she was hailed as being the, potentially the first black woman to be president, that that's not playing, or that's not enough for the black community to get on board with her. Can you elaborate on that a little bit and speak to why you think that is? - First of all, she is not an American descendant of slaves. That's one sector of the community, ADOS, they call them, that is highly upset because she is half Jamaican and Indian or Southeast Asian from the country of India. Her mother was born in India. Her father was born in Jamaica, has Irish roots as well. They have never associated with that aspect. I mean, yes, she jumped on the bandwagon at Howard, but really that was a calling card. You look at her life, you look at her platforms, you also look at who she married. She's married to a white Jewish guy. And so, among certain blacks, a calling card of, are you truly black? Are you truly part of the, down with the struggle, is that she married within your race. She's, hasn't, she married a white guy. So, all of these things, then suddenly now she is, as you know, the phrase goes down with the struggle, suddenly now she cares or pretends to care about black people. So, she's got Megan the stallion and she's got whatever that person's name begins with Q. That's all I remember. - I mean, Quadra. - You know, she, Quadra, yeah, she parades them around and has this wave of media black faces trying to promote her and pump her up when the truth about her reputation in the black community is that as a DA and as an AG, she destroyed them. She put one young man, Jamal True Love, in prison for a murder he did not commit. They actually paid the witness to make up manufacture this story against him. And according to True Love, she celebrated that he got convicted. So, you know, you have a record and that's just one case in 165,000 of black men who were jailed for prison. So, those are examples of the way that Kamala Harris is trying to not only hide her past, but latch onto the black community for street cred and for votes when what she's done in her record and in her career is destroy the black community. - Yeah, and there also seems to be a push by the Democrat Party and by the people helping her with this campaign that you're not allowed to look at her record or, you know, you shouldn't tie her to what she did in the Biden administration and you also shouldn't tie her to what she did as a senator and you also shouldn't tie her to what she did when she was a prosecutor. So, it kind of leaves me going, so what are we supposed to take her at? If we can't take her at her word, if we can't take her at her positions that she's held in the past, are we just supposed to believe that this fantasy that she is now concocting about what she'll be like in the future, we're all just supposed to trust that? - Pretty much, I mean, she's basically abandoned every platform point she had in the 2020 election to claim that, yes, I can lead and no, I'm not against that. And really, all you're supposed to do is take the fact that she's going to break the glass ceiling and rah-rah, isn't it wonderful that we have a black in quotes woman ascending to the presidency and ascension is correct because that's what they want. They just want to put her up there and assume that you're supposed to clap like fields and take it and the black community and many others are not. And I think that is definitely throwing them for a loop. - What do you think is 'cause I know often times when I see these polls and you have to take them with a massive grain of salt, but when you see that Trump is making inroads with black men, why do you think that is? Like, well, what has he managed to hit on that is resonating with at least parts of that community? - Because they realize that between 2019 and probably 2020, before the pandemic got stupid, ridiculous in 2019, 2018, actually 2018, between 2018 and 2020, their economy was better. They were able to buy a house. They were able to save, had better job prospects. They realized that now double digit inflation, they're paying double what they did at the grocery store. They can't save up and buy for house because their money is being eaten away by just surviving. And we've always been about the hustle, that hustling and going for those, that two or three jobs never has been a problem, but then you have an administration that's trying to restrict that and destroy that. Kamala Harris herself has said, "Oh, well, I'm backing the Pro Act and people shouldn't have to work more than one job." Well, what if we want to? So you've got a government where as Trump put in an instituted a policy for independent contractors, for people who wanted economic freedom, where he didn't restrict them, this administration is doing that. And black people recognize that now. Jennifer Oliver, O'Connell, I always love talking to you. It's been way too long. I thank you so much for coming on the show. Everyone go to redstate.com and read all of her work. And Jennifer, tell them where they can also follow you on social media. - As the girl turns on all of social media, you type that in, you find me. Substack, redstate, X, 18, 19 news, Facebook, all the channels. - Wonderful. Thank you so much, Jennifer. We appreciate it. We'll be right back with your calls on this. Do you agree with Jennifer? Is Kamala Harris, is this enthusiasm manufactured? And is her flip-flopping actually going to come back to bite her? And furthermore, I do want to talk a little bit more about why some black journalists are so upset that Trump was invited to this convention and that he's going to sit down with a panel of three black women who are from completely different sectors of the media. You have, as far as politics go, you have Rachel Scott, who's from ABC News, you have Harris Faulkner, who's from Fox News, and you have Katie Goba, who's from Semaphore. So you have more of a right-wing, more of a, I would say, the ABC's left, but I guess compared to Semaphore, it's a little bit more in the middle. And then you have a far left organization and everyone's going to be able to ask their questions. Why is that a bad thing? I'm really sick of this tactic where you say you're platforming someone who's dangerous. You know what that is? That's a cop out, that's being afraid of people being able to form their own opinions. That's being afraid to show up and ask questions and get answers. If you feel, like Jennifer said, if you feel so strongly that he's a racist and he's a sexist and he's a xenophobe, then come up with some questions and hold this feed to the fire. Otherwise, you sound like you're afraid. You sound like you're afraid that he's going to make an impact with his audience that maybe he'll win over some hearts and minds and that maybe come November, we're 97 days away, maybe he'll win. And so if you're so afraid of his message that you just don't want to hear it and you don't want him to show up and you don't want him to give these black journalists an opportunity to sit down with someone who might be the future president of the United States, then that's your problem. It's not Donald Trump's problem and it's not the black journalist at this conventions problem. If they want to sit down with this man and get to hear his POV, I think there's something very, condescending about assuming that these black journalists can't handle it. Like they can't handle the hate that Donald Trump is going to spew. They can't handle the hatred and the wickedness of orange man, they'll be just fine. Okay, there's plenty of white journalists who have no problem sitting down with Donald Trump in the press when he was in the White House and they made plenty of money and they had book deals and podcasts and everything else. And so what are you telling me now that all those white journalists who got rich off Donald Trump that that was okay, but now the black journalist want their chance to talk to him that suddenly it's like, "Oh, this is uncalled for." It's ridiculous, 844-542, 42 will be right back. Hi, it's Toby from Cape Gunworks. I'm taking all your firearm and self-defense questions every Tuesday.

She's just the gift that keeps on giving. It's a classic, and I might be a little sentimental over it because we've played it so many times throughout the years. We had a call with Ethan who was voting for Kamala Harris despite the fact that he acknowledges that Hamas is full of maniacs and that Israel is going to have to try to make peace with these people and that there are members of the Democrat party that are far left extremist and very anti-Semitic, but I guess he just doesn't think Kamala Harris is going to be like that. And you know what's amazing, Taylor, is how you can have a call and you can think, that one okay? Like that was fairly cordial and civil. And then you get all these texts, why didn't you tell them this? And I'm like, why? Oh man, that doesn't always have to be a screaming mat. Yeah, I think people would prefer that though. People seem to want to scream at Ethan. I understand your frustration. You've got to whatever his name is of that day. Yeah, the talented Mr. Ripley of collars, but I will point out and I'm glad a lot of the listeners and textures are pointing this out as well, the onus of making peace always seems to fall with Israel. And one of the collars who reacted to Ethan had a great point about why don't we just look at how Israel was doing under Trump versus under Joe Biden? And I know Israel, I don't mean under in that sense, but like when Joe Biden is president versus when Trump is president, where is the level of peace found in Israel? And I don't think there's any question that Israel has been under attack while Joe Biden has been president. And I've been disappointed in the response from Democrats in this country. And if you're a Jewish person and you're not and you don't think that they're anti-Semitism and they're refusal to really stand up for Israel and to not draw these pathetic moral equivalences between Israel and these Hamas barbarians, if you can stomach that, then fine. But I don't understand how you support politicians who are coddling people in this country who are waving Hamas flags and throwing out ridiculous from the river to the sea and being so proudly anti-Semitic and so eager to eliminate the Jewish people, I don't understand how you can reconcile that. I don't understand how you can look at anti-Semitism under Trump versus under Biden and think we're better off right now and think Israel's better off right now. But if people can, I guess anything's possible. We'll be right back. We're gonna talk to Secret Service. We're gonna take more of your phone calls. So don't go anywhere.
