We had

Jake Novak in the studio.

I was a longtime customer there in my different times in my life.

And I had a roommate in college who babysat his grandchildren when we were in college.

But, you know, those kinds of places, they're few and far between.

They're kind of like –

Like Russ and Daughters.

Yeah,

Wow.

Jake.

General Holt, I don't mean to bring us down again, but and I know.

Oh, no.

Sorry.

Oh,

There's another

concern I have to bring up, and I know you've thought about it.

France is a nuclear armed country.

So who better than you? Can you kind of explain what's going on and what this means?

Yeah, so the way it works in Israel is that even if one group of parties or one party wins a strong majority in the parliamentary elections, they have to be given the mandate by the president, who is in an appointed position in Israel.

It's mostly ceremonial, but this is the most important decision that a president makes.

He decides, it's only been men so far, who gets the first crack to form a coalition.

So in other words, and it's supposed to be based on just the math.

He takes a look at the election results.

He takes a look at what some of the leaders of the parties have said about who they would join with and who they wouldn't.

where's Richard Dawson when you need him?

But where's Richard Dawson when you need him?

Where are we now, especially with that terrifying Minnesota race?

Well, you mean the Michigan race? Yeah.

Well, you know, I tell you something.

30 minutes ago, I was really getting a big smile on my face because it was absolutely tied.

But just in the last 30 minutes...

El-Sayed, the Democrat nominee for Senate in Michigan, has pulled now ahead by 177,000 votes over Mike Rogers, with 70% of the votes counted.

And this is starting to look like a very big, long shot that he'll be able to make up that gap.

That's who that guy is.

That's who that guy is.

You know...

Islam, the most disturbing thing about Al-Said, and specifically, is that he does indeed have these ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.

And for those of you who don't know what the Muslim Brotherhood is, sometimes it sounds like the ladies' auxiliary.

It doesn't sound so menacing.

Oh, Muslim Brotherhood, or the men's club.

But the Muslim Brotherhood is the reason why Islam has this genocidal philosophy now.

And while we have freedom of the press, it's being taken advantage of in the worst way.

That's who that guy is.

Now, it's not that Islam doesn't have a violent past.

And while we have freedom of the press, it's being taken advantage of in the worst way.

That's who that guy is.

You know, um...

Islam – the most disturbing thing about al-Said specifically is that he does indeed have these ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.

Jake Novak.

Bill, I want to give you credit for a little bit of what you just said before.

I remember you way back in 2018, maybe even before that, being one of the first national voices calling out this stoking of anti-Semitism by the left and the Democrats.

You were very early on this.

And I have to say that you're totally right about what has driven the Democrats to win tonight.

But...

My fear is they're not going to look at that.

Jake

Novak.

Let's dig into this a little bit more because the Muslim Student Association has a very benign sounding name.

You already started to crack this a little bit, but I want you to get into it just a little bit more.

This is not like some organization that helps Muslim students on campus find out where they can go pray or where they can get a halal meal.

This is not like Hillel for Jewish students.

This is a political pro-terrorist organization.

I mean, any breaking news from Israel?

You know, Israel's had like 17 elections or something like that since 2015.

And the results are always the same, that the Likud, the Netanyahu party, always comes in first, quote unquote first, but never enough for a clear majority, not since 2013.

And, you know, it's an example of sometimes you can have too much democracy.

Remember when the Republicans were having a race for Speaker of the House every five minutes? You know, you've got to give people a chance.

And there's been no change.

It's going to take weeks before we know who, quote, really won the election.

But he's ahead a little bit now in the latest numbers,

[laughs]

... uh, I- I'd love for you to explain to our listeners, this is a huge blow to NATO.

How can we expect France and Italy and these other countries to send troops, uh, either to help Ukraine or to help in other theaters when clearly they need now to shore up their domestic situation? I mean, we're talking about the Louvre.

The, the French u- uh, uh, military needs to surround the Louvre with a show of force tonight, tonight, and I'm talking about bunkers, tanks, and, and heavy artillery.

[upbeat music]

Hanging out at the pool is great, relaxing and playing Vegas style games on my phone at the same time.

Drink in one hand and a blackjack in the other.

It's all at SpinQuest.

Novak has

no chance.

I don't have a chance.

But the most important thing for a press and this is why Scott Jennings won't get the job, Rita.

The most important thing for a White House press secretary is to not upstage the president.

You need to be boring.

No

way.

Take a listen.

Do you believe criticisms

Jake Novak.

Perfect segue, Bruce.

You know, I think that for a lot of people, and I know you've been working on this campaign for a really long time, but I know, I feel like this debate was your introduction for a lot of people in New York.

A lot of people got introduced to you this week, and it's about turnout.

If you're a voter who wants to have an impact in an election, the midterms are for you, because turnout in this election will actually mean more than in a presidential election.

Isn't that true?

Can you imagine? to let people understand a little

a little bit about for those of you who don't who aren't completely aware what the muslim brotherhood is and why it's so horrible to have any connection with them the muslim brotherhood started in the late 19th century in egypt and i know that there's plenty of passages in the quran and you can quote me this and quote me that but in general Islam did not have a genocidal outlook towards non-Muslims for most of its history.

The Muslim Brotherhood embraced that.

They are the fathers, not just spiritually, but directly, of Hamas, of Al-Qaeda.

Literally, I mean, they played a role in its creation.

There was a direct line from them.

So this is a very big deal.

And the blacks in Detroit, frankly, to turn out to vote for this guy who is anti-black, ultimately anti-Catholic, and anti-Jewish.

Right

... that dichotomy between the four billion that Kathy Hochul had spent for law enforcement in New York, and the eight billion that she had spent on illegal migrants.

And I think he needs to do, and we'll talk about him with him when he joins us later, I think what he needs to do is what Mike Rogers has done, at least on social media, which is, and I'm sorry to use the term, but trot out the people who have been left behind from this.

If you look at the Mike Rogers ads, it's a bunch of Black people from Michigan saying, "This guy cares more, El Sayed cares more about the Middle East than us," and it's a bunch of Jewish mich- people from Michigan saying, "I, I've never voted for a Republican in my life, but I've gotta vote for Mike Rogers 'cause this guy's an anti-Semite." Bruce Blakeman should bring out some of the people who had been, uh, absolutely displaced and been, look, passed over.

I mean, get, bring some veterans out there who are having trouble getting better care.

Bring some people out there who are living in decrepit New York City housing when the illegal migrants got rooms in the Roosevelt Hotel.

I mean, is that something that Blakeman can do at this late stage and, and actually get real people in front of a camera to talk?

Sure.

I think Blakeman will get a bump from last night's debate.

It's, it's an opening.

I, I think that this debate is actually the introduction to the race for a tremendous number of the voters who had not been paying attention to it at all.

I think before yesterday, if I had gone down the street here and asked people, you know, "Who...

You know, tell us who the governor of New York is and who she's running against," I think a lot of people would not have known the answer.

I think a decent number of them now do.

So it's an opening.

She had a really good get out the vote.

I have no idea what the connection is, but I thought Jake has to come on and explain to us what the connection is.

Well, you know, thank you, Walter.

I, I think, um, a lot of the listeners will understand this inherently, but what got me thinking about this again, and I thought about it a, a number of times, was something that happened about two weeks ago when New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani did a long podcast interview where he talked about how in his young and, uh, early to mid-twenties, he was dealing with severe anxiety, real mental health issues, and that he found comfort, and he found, uh, a, a place to, uh, exercise all that, and by that I, I spell that exorcise, by, by joining the Socialist, uh, Party, joining the Democrat socialists.

And I thought to myself, "No, that, that isn't therapy for you, sir.

That's actually helping to, uh, uh, exacerbate your problem." Uh, politics are a terrible, and mental illness are a terrible mix.

They, they help each other.

They feed off of each other.

Wow.

Wow.

I was just curious what you guys thought.

thought.I don't, I don't think it's mandatory.

I mean, um, there's, there's definitely ways around...

I mean, we, we could just say we withdraw from it, and I don't really think that there's necessarily much, uh, financial, uh, or, or prestige stuff to pay for it, but there would be a huge, huge backlash.

There would be a media storm involved with it.

Um, I like to think of other ways to deal with this.

I like what we're doing with, uh, holding off some of our donations and our funding.

Mm-hmm.
