05-15-26 Part Two - Breaking Down Breaking News

For €1.99, you have the instant, Lekka. Hmm.

“And for €9.50, you have the new "Lieblings".”

For the night, you always have the passion.

Pretty good? Then try the Asia Green Garden or the boulevard. For €2.49, you have €9.99. Or with Sani Sani K4, €2.50, you have €2.59. That's good for all the price. Now in your filial.

ID, bootest for all. Now, it's Red Eye Radio, Gary McNamara and Eric Hurley talk about everything from Father Tics to Social Issues and News of the Day. Whether you're up late or you're just starting your day. Welcome to the show from the Relief Factor Studios.

This is Red Eye Radio. All across America. He is here at Crony and I'm Gary McNamara. He'll give him a good morning.

“You know, it was funny yesterday, did you see that Newsom put out?”

See, I've balanced California's budget and Trump hasn't balanced his. Did you see that and everybody post afterwards? It's like, you have to buy law. Yeah, yeah, you have no choice.

Now, the math is always interesting because of the projections, just like everybody's

talking about, you know, New York City, it's like, well, they're making all these assumptions. And we know that because they even make the assumptions, they always make the assumptions even in the federal budget and it never comes to fruition. Does it? No.

No. It doesn't. Look, I don't know.

“It's to the point I don't know what to buy.”

I don't know what to believe from anybody. I'm becoming that guy. Well, that old guy. I don't trust any of them. No, no, no.

You know what's happening to me and we get complimented on it because people say this story broken, you guys said, well, I don't know. Because I don't know so many things, I don't know about it, I can't make a story breaks. It's like, okay, I have to, it's going to take me a day or two to weed through all the bull.

And then, well, no, that's the biggest part of our job and it has been for years. I know. Is getting through all the garbage and in the way that articles are written today. Now, sometimes I appreciate it when about, I don't know, maybe halfway through the article, they give you a background of everything that's happened up to this point.

But if it's a wide story and one that's been around for a minute, I don't know that you need the recap. Here's how we got to this point thing. It's like, okay, this whole started when Marco Rubio wore a sweat suit on Air Force wanted.

Wait, I'm in it, I'm, I'm, but, and it's, by the way, it made me decide that I don't care how old I get. I'm not wearing sweatshirts. I looked at Marco Rubio, I was like, no, that doesn't, that, no, but I don't know what to believe anyone.

And it takes so much work to finally find enough of the fact, fact words, fact nuggets, whatever

you want to call them, to put together basically the story. You know, because it's also about omission, I mean, there's a lot of awesome information out there that they put out proactively, the liberal activist media will do that. And has, has been doing that for a long time. But also, when they don't do the work, you know, journalism requires that you do the

thorough job, perfect example, because even Jesse Waters got caught on it. The CIA has just rated Tulsi Gabbard's office. But the CIA just rated it, agents brought out dozens of boxes, files on the JFK assassination. MLK, uh, and you just, and they reported it yesterday also, yeah, false. Right.

Yeah, they didn't have the CIA, there was no raid, no, it happened last year, where they

Right. Right.

“But I knew it immediately, as soon as I saw the CIA raided, I'm like the CIA can't”

raid. The CIA doesn't raid. Right. And initially, and you had, you know, Fox went with the story. Other, what was the story?

And I'm just like, I mean, I guess the ICIG, the intelligence community inspector general could go in and, uh, it doesn't qualify as a raid to me. It's not a law enforcement raid. Right. I don't take computers and take files that they were looking into activity by, in this

case, Tulsi Gabbard, but that's not what happened. They, it's, and it's frustrating because it doesn't matter the source anymore.

My first go to my head is, I don't believe it, I don't believe it.

Jury Jones, considering retiring. Nope. That wasn't a story, but though I don't get too excited if you're a Cowboys man, that was never a story. He's apparently going to live to 300 years old.

But the, that's, that's the issue, because in today's world journalism isn't even journalism, it's, clickbait, to some extent, it's, we need to get them to click because the clicks

“matter and then subscriptions matter and remember the former editor of the New York Times,”

every time we have a story about Trump are subscriptions went through the roof. And those, that's exactly what they look at. I don't flaw in the company for wanting to maintain a business model. But when it comes to journalism, it doesn't serve the spirit of true journalism. If you're not doing the complete job, that's accurate and true with the information that

you have. Hey, I'm Chris Fanfleet. Go behind the scenes and beyond the headlines with the biggest names in pro wrestling and beyond. You could pop up in WWE tomorrow.

Would Saraje be there or would page be there? Hey, 1,100% there. So when you're setting up Logan Paul to prox splash you through the announced table, it's going through your mind. This should make every headline in the world, but it makes sense, right, in Jelly Roll.

We knew we had that kind of a moment. Mindset, motivation, and what it takes to succeed. Insight with Chris Fanfleet, follow and listen on your favorite platform.

“Well, I, here's another one, this one, another one from Fox and it was on X.”

I don't know if you saw this one, because the first question I had, I said, "Let's

doesn't matter, it's meaningless, doesn't matter what they do it." A one vote margin from Fox News, a one vote margin just changed the conversation around ice in Minnesota in a razor thin 34 to 33 vote. The state Senate backed a bill banning ice agents from wearing masks during operations and giving residents to write to Sue, if they believe their constitutional rights

were violated. Doesn't matter. That's already been decided. Yeah. Supremacy clause.

Yeah. Now they can vote all they want. It's meaningless. Right. It's not a breaking news story.

No. It's not an urgent story. Right. It's already had California tried. It was blown out.

We'll see that's it. And, you know, that's, it's the viral effort here. That was a viral effort. Yeah. Just like the CIA thing.

Writing, we'll see Gabbard's office as all the word agents and many of the posts surrounding that their officers, not agents at the CIA. Just to be clear. Yeah. And then spokes.

That was spies. No. If you're going to go full on drama, if you're going to go full on drama about something and make it, you know, and do the clickbaiting thing, man, spice it up. All of them were wearing black suits and sunglasses.

You know, it's, it's just, it's, it's, it's not an effort to inform you. It's an effort to get your attention. But then there are some true things you see on X, for example, this one that I saw yesterday. Yeah.

And Colbert's late night show first aired in September of 2025.

Trump was one of his first guests. Colbert spent the first month of his show talking about Trump. September of 25. Okay. September of 2015.

Trump was one of his first guests. Colbert spent the first month of his show talking about Trump. Colbert just spent the last month of his show talking about Trump. He talked about Trump and virtually every show in between. Yeah.

With the exception of the first couple of months, Colbert was actually pretty kind to Trump in 2015. He was. People are going to play in that video from September of 2015. Yeah.

“When Trump made it clear, and by 20, I remember September of 2015.”

I got a good memory. I'm not that old yet, apparently. And I remember I said, I know I trump is so popular. Yeah. He's identifying the problems and the problems he has seen is.

I want to put Americans should be put first by any American politician. Right. And his, by the way, Colbert's predecessor, Letterman, had Trump on earlier that year. Yeah. And friendly conversation, everything else.

Trump never changed. Right.

He's never changed really in opinion.

Right. He hasn't changed a major opinion. Nope. They changed. He didn't, you know, he didn't change.

But I just thought there was hilarious. The last, for the last month of his show, he's talked about Trump all the time. The first month of his show, he talked about Trump all the time. And every show in between, he talked about Trump all the time. You know, it's it.

“Did you see where they all got together?”

Hmm. Oh, yeah. All the talks was got together. And we mentioned it the other day. Right.

It just shows that they're all solidarity far left. But it was like, yeah. It's like all of them.

Because whatever, we were five or six, it's like the five new women

who will be taking over the view. And it was all of them. Yeah. Yeah. It's, you know, again, getting back to reporting and stories and all that.

And it relates to cold air and all of that. Because often it is about. The stories are about what somebody said about somebody else. There's a comedian I forget who. Who did it?

I don't know if his neighbor got to see somebody did. He said, the media has just become hated. Did you hear what this guy said about that guy?

“Well, coming up after the break, we're going to tell you about what that.”

And then that guy said this. And then this guy said this about that guy. And it's like, you know, I don't care. If I wanted to know their opinion, I wouldn't be watching you. I'd be watching them.

And it's, but again, you're not looking to inform. You're only looking to get somebody's attention. It's, it's clickbait to a certain extent. Nearly every time. But it's interesting when a story comes out now.

I don't know what percentage of the time it is. But I'll tell you this. There are times. And this is before I go on the air. Right.

I'll see a story and I'll take it for bait. Right. And I'll be doing something around the house. I'll go wait a minute. Yeah.

Yeah. I'm going to go back and check to verify that. And I'll find stories that are wrong. And I'm like, glad I didn't just see it on the air and go with it. Right.

Because it's wrong. And they didn't cover this. And they didn't cover this. And they forgot this. This is stories completely BS.

That happens so much now where any story that I see. I have to question even from conservative publications. I have to question whether it is accurate or not. And I have to double and sometimes triple check to, to make sure. I'm not talking about the influencers.

The influencers are obvious to see. They'll cheerlead both sides no matter what makes them look stupid or not. Right. Well, I'm not talking about legitimate news services. But I'm like, well, that's ridiculous.

Well, it's funny because jury. Signed help. Communions and cars getting coffee with Larry David. And Larry David was going in the moment. It was going off on this.

New York Times reporter. And he said something along the lines. Well, you know, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And I have so much respect for this. And jury was like, why?

Why? Why do you make it? Because it's the New York Times along those same lines. You and I both follow Rick Biotto. Very knowledgeable music guy.

Producer, professor, teacher of music. He studied music.

And he always says, and he made a point.

He does, did this piece on these New York Times did this weird thing. The 30 best living song writers. And they didn't include Billy Joel. That didn't include what's his name. James Taylor.

That didn't include there were so many right out of it. And he said, but I'm going to do the second videos from there.

I want you to see how these people think. There's a New York Times.

“It was the New York Times podcast on this on the reaction to their piece,”

by the way, more than any. And so he's going through and he's listening to the way they talk.

And basically, and he says, and none of them have music degrees.

They're all Ivy League educated. And he says, and there's nothing wrong with that except their approach is. And he pointed out and he does this at the end of his video. Hey, this is just my opinion. Tell me your thoughts in the comments.

And with them, but this is the difference. The liberal mindset. I'm not going to tell you my opinion. I'm going to give you the correct answer. They have that smug attitude that what they, you don't know as much as they do.

You couldn't possibly, unless you have an Ivy League degree. But it all leads up. And since we're, you know, mentioned the New York Times for this. Now, I mean, the, the, the, the dog rape stories. Yeah.

Yeah. That is real. And, and it's like he goes.

“There's so many articles that went for them to even print that.”

And then not to denounce Christoph for writing that. Right. I mean, it's just like talk to, you know, we saw it. We've talked to vets and animal behaviorist. You can't teach a dog to rape.

Right. It doesn't happen. You know, and the New York Times is still backing the article. Yeah. Yes.

How much? And it was almost as if this is. Let's throw this in because this is so. This is so salacious. Yeah.

It's really using dogs to rape. Right. They're Palestinian prisoners. Just can't beat that one, can you? I mean, that's can't top that one.

All right. Let's go with it. Whether it's true or not.

“And you're going to have people believe till the end of their life.”

Yeah. That a story like that is true.

I'm waiting for the first person I talked to that says that to me.

Oh, my gosh. It's just like, you know, they're going to have to, you know, they're going to have to back off and then talk about other stories that they just wouldn't back off. And eventually had to back off.

And it go, okay. It's not. It was. Right. It's not true.

Right. That one was so bizarre, though. It's almost as if the left hasn't even jumped on it. It's like, yeah, we better watch. Well, it's weird.

Yeah. You got to be careful that the battles you choose even on the left. We are right. I radio brought to you by. FPPF, fuel power max surviving a thriving as an odor operator has just as much to do with managing costs as it does with generating revenue.

Understanding basic principles of operating costs can save you thousands of dollars a year. Costs are not the same each month. If 96 of miles are driven one month and 10,000 miles the next two different sets of cost apply for each month. For example, if your tractor payment is 1,850 dollars per month and you drive 96 hundred miles in the month, your tractor payment is costing you 19.3 cents per mile.

Drive 10,000 miles, though. And that same payment will cost you 18.5 cents per mile. This is one of your major fixed costs while paying off a truck loan. The difference in this example is only a fraction of a cent, which may seem like small change.

But it ultimately amounts to $960 more annually on the bottom line because though fixed costs do not go down over time.

You can reduce your cost per mile with more paid miles. Owner operator Business 101 is provided by Overdrive Partners in Business Program.

Get in touch with what I radio told for you at 866.

Mindy Red Eye. (Music) We are Rotella Radio. He's running and I'm Gary McNamara. Coming up on the bottom of the hour more details just on that New York Times story.

Because we're just talking about how you know where the media is going in certain ways and how click baiting and just wanting to become more tabloid. Because you think about it the dog the is really dog rape story. It was so it's so bad as I just mentioned. You haven't heard people on the left even jump onto this because they're like, and we'll get to a really interesting story that I read yesterday on it just saying how bad it's sourced.

You know, Nicholas Christoff, one of the witnesses he used has been involved in two or three different things where he changed his mind over and over again.

Right.

It's for constantly changing different things scenarios.

Not just on one incident, but a couple of incidents changing stories multiple times. You don't use them as your source. Right. That's not a dependable witness but he didn't care. Right.

And like I said, then you got to the dog rape story.

“And this is where they started talking to experts or like, what are they talking about?”

They're nuts. Yep. Catch Rennie Radio Live every night on the Rennie Radio app available in the app store. Rennie Radio. And he's hurt early and I'm Gary McNamara.

Before we get to more of the New York Times is really dog rape story. She's my gosh. That's something I didn't expect to be talking about this two weeks ago. But before we get there, our audio cut of the week. Right.

There was a close contest, but this eventually had to went out because this showed the absolute ignorant arrogance of the Democrats. Yeah. Completely. There's no way. There's no way anyone can defend this comment.

And this was Secretary of Interior, Bergen testifying was that the house was the environmental committee was it? Yeah, I think so. Yeah. What are the natural resources? Natural resources.

Natural resources. And talking about the fact of of solar panels, they get into to solar panels here. Yeah. And it's a representative of California who makes the dumbest statement ever.

And then the ignorant arrogance comes in where he's attempting to mock the Secretary of Interior as if the Secretary of Interior doesn't know about this amazing new technology,

which he's apparently trying to imply, can run a city, which it cannot. And that's where the ignorant arrogance comes in from representative of California. But here it is. This is the dumbest audio cut of the week. Here we go.

I'd you know, the lizard analysis that suggests that this is the cheapest form of energy. All of these projects are describing and about to have one thing in common. When the sun goes down, they produce zero electricity. And this nation over-rotated towards intermittent forms of energy. And the idea that we could add intermittent and shut down base load is what put our grid at deep risk.

“And the idea that it's the cheapest, if you want to add intermittent, you have to keep everything else.”

And so we have to have a discussion about the total cost of grid, not the cost of the incremental, because it's true on an incremental basis. You may have an incremental source, but it doesn't work. The whole machine doesn't work when the sun goes down. And there's examples from around the world of this happening. And so it's a, you know, cherry-picking an analysis that doesn't look, we're looking at reliable, affordable and secure.

And I would encourage everybody here to get a skiff and to understand that most of these components, very few of these components for the solar industry are coming from the US, they're coming from China. And just like we have with Huawei equipment, there's, there's modifications on those, that would allow foreign governments to interfere with our grid. And I just want to, I want to have a rational discussion with everybody.

This is not an ideological thing. It's about reliable, affordable and secure those things. I'm off. All right. Now, has he said anything wrong there? As we said yesterday. No, there's nothing wrong there.

What he's saying is you can't sit there and say, well, solar energy is cheaper. Right. Because it's free the sun and everything else. No. It's like, well, no.

That's like saying, I have a car. I bought a car that's cheaper than your car. But I can only use it half the time.

“Well, remember when who's at Chevrolet on the Chevy Volt?”

They tried, they just ramped up the, the mileage like to the roof.

It's like, well, one second.

Well, that's not, that's not the mileage. What's the gas mileage? Right. Yeah. Exactly. Yes. Remember, it's like, it gets 235 miles to the gallon.

It's like, well, no, you're, you're, you're talking about

Say, say this.

“You're counting the charge battery power.”

Yeah.

As miles per gallon for gasoline when you're not using gasoline.

Exactly. Because if you're talking about hybrid technology, say this, you'll have to fill up a lot less when you start going crazy. I mean, but that's, you know, that's the left mentality for you. Because those are the plug-in hybrids.

So they were talking about the plug-in. Right. Right. So you're plugging your charge of battery and it's all charged. Right. Then you, you ride with it and they were calling that as the miles per gallon,

which you can't do because it's from a different energy source. Right. Now, and, but the analogy I gave is you, you buy a car and it's like, you paid 30,000 for your vehicle. I paid 20,000 for mine.

And, and, and, and therefore, you know, my vehicle was cheaper. Yeah, but you can only run your vehicle. 12 hours a day and you had to buy another normal vehicle. So you had to buy a 20,000 dollar vehicle. Then a 30,000 vehicle.

30,000 dollar vehicle to back that one up. So you could drive around whenever you needed to. I just needed to spend the 30,000. Mm-hmm. So you can't make that's the argument he's making, which is a totally accurate argument.

“And then he talked about the fact that you can't put in these”

sources and get rid of baseline. Now, the Congresswoman, I don't know who she is. The Democrat Congresswoman, cut sentence, says, well, we're not doing that. Of course we are.

Right. Of course we, we've, we've done that. Yeah. As we've been, we haven't built. You know, you look at, for example,

the problem that New York is facing right now. The electricity prices are going to skyrocket. Mm-hmm. You don't have the base load that you need. I mean, know that nuclear plants were shut down left and right.

Yep. We knew cold generation plant was shut down left and right and promoted that solar can replace it. We know that Biden ran for the first few months of his campaign for like four or five months.

And we can run the grid on solar and wind. So they're in wind. Then they found he had to add, well, you better add nuclear because you're, some like an idiot. Yeah.

So then they added nuclear, but for significant periods, I'm there walking around and you can't do it. Now, here's a response. And listen to this. Here we go.

All four rational conversation about it. I'll just say we are not shutting down base load energy to build solar. And I will contend we have battery storage as well. So we're going, we're going to move on to the next question. Sure.

I request unanimous consent to enter into the record.

It's the amazing new technology that apparently the Secretary is unaware of it.

It's a battery. China's figured it out.

“That's why they're cleaning our clock on clean energy.”

But I want to enter that into the record. And that was representative of California. What an idiot he is. Battery, we have no batteries that can run a city. None.

Zero. No. And can you imagine what it would take if you could ever get to that level, which you can't. But if you could.

If we're going to go into. Very tale world. Then what? The waste from all the batteries. Oh, let's not talk about that part.

Oh, yeah. What are you going to do with them? Right. But the fact is it his air. It's not just the ignorance or and he or his stupidity.

It's his arrogance because it has to be more than just ignorance. It has to be a little bit of stupidity. If you actually believe that there is a battery that can run a city or run a country's grid. It doesn't exist. No.

And it won't exist in any of our lifetimes. Right. Batteries don't produce energy. They store it. Right.

And there's not enough storage and batteries to run a city. Well, we can run it in just solar. Because that's the point they're trying to make. Yes. He's not saying we back it up with natural gas and nuclear.

And we're not talking about individual homes. They're talking about the grid. The grid. I mean, they're complete idiots. And I don't like to name call.

But when you're dealing with children's mentality, I don't know what else to say. Yeah. Yeah. And then the arrogance that we need apparently.

I request to enter into the record.

The amazing new technology that the apparently the Secretary is unaware of.

It's a battery. The arrogance. He's got the. I've got the not only am I stupid, but I have the arrogance of my own stupidity. What a tool you people in California elected in Huffman's district.

Yeah. Second district California. Yeah. You deserve exactly what you get when you put idiots like that into office. Yeah.

Right. Good luck with your brownouts. Yeah. Blackouts. Just amazing.

Yeah. Very quickly here on that. We were talking about the media earlier. Rachel, Donna, Hugh and National Review. Time for the times to retract the Israeli rape column.

Some kind of correction or retraction to Nicholas Christoff's column.

“That allegedly Israeli systematically sexually abused Palestinians,”

including trained rape dogs. Uh, given when the great lady splashed the photograph of these supposedly starving child. Remember that one? Yeah. On the front page to accuse Israel of orchestrating a famine in Gaza, a child who was later revealed to be suffering from a pre-existing medical condition,

whereas his healthy sibling was conveniently cropped out of the photo. It took five days for the editor's note to appear online. That episode was embarrassing this one as worse. The backlash to Christoff's column has been louder and this one could be more sustained.

Perhaps it's because this is one anti-Israel editorial debacle too many or perhaps because unlike the famine photo,

which could be blamed on a freelancer in Gaza, the hodgepodge of sensational claims do be as sourcing and evolving witness accounts in Christoff's peace feels less like a mistake.

“And more like malice, in fact, the Israeli government announced its intention to bring a defamation lawsuit against the New York Times.”

In a 1,500 word exercising with the paper calls, opinion journalism. Right. Yeah. That's the new one. The oxymoronic term deployed by the spokesman for the New York Times and one of the several defenses of the peace that the Times has relieved,

police, Christoff alleges that Israeli security forces and civilians have systematically sexually abused Palestinian detainees, not content with alleged human perpetrators. He adds a grotesque flourish and absurd claim that Israeli authorities have trained dogs to rape prisoners. This claim is as lured as it is implausible veterinarians and animal behavior experts have pointed out the obvious. Training a dog to carry out sexual assault on command is practically and biologically impossible.

Yet Christoff doubled down on social media insisting that articles in some medical journals can see that dogs can rape humans. They do not. Wow, the material he cited described cases of human initiated beastiality and does not involve animals that have been trained to assault humans. The rape dogs exist only in the imagination of Christoff and his sources. Yeah.

Then she goes through the different sources. The name source is going, here's this person. Here's where they said, you know, they said this now. They said something completely different a year ago. And then they go to another case where the one of the sources was actually arrested by Palestinian intelligence.

So he's, but this guy's been arrested by both sides. Yeah. And told two different stories there too.

It's like when you look at the sources that you would never use these people as sources.

You know, because they're just unreliable and they keep changing their story. Well, I mean, you would think that you would think unless you could prove with evidence. Maybe film or something like that of the dog rapes that you would stay away from such sensationalism because it would destroy the credibility or the believability. I'm not saying it's credible that the possible believability of a story. But he doesn't and then he doubles down on it.

That's the thing.

“How much do they put into the credibility or believability today?”

What do you have to do? Because if you can make it up as you go along with Trump, they're still peddling the Russian hoax. Yeah. If you can, when it's been proven, it didn't happen. If you can, if you can do that, how much do you care about credibility?

You don't because you only care about clicks and subscriptions. When 30 to 42% of Democrats believe that the assassination attempts on the president were done by the president. Yeah. Right. Make it up as you go along.

We don't have to, we don't have to be credible. We just have to put it out there. Whatever lies we can tell to get power. Yep. It's all that matters.

Right. We'll have enough people who will buy the lies and repeat the lies for us. We are Red Eye Radio. Coming up more with Gary McNamara and Eric Carley. It's Red Eye Radio.

As we come to the end of this hour, I decided just to look at the Babylon be headlines.

Oh, good. Not really a lot of good ones.

“In fact, I haven't done it like weeks, but I did find this one from five, six, seven days ago.”

All right.

Marco Rubio delivers stunning press conference moments after delivering Caroline Levitt's baby.

And if you've seen the memes out there, the memes are that. But by the way, I do think, you know, we talked about the one polling. The, the Atlas Intel poll, which was the most accurate poll poster for 2024 and 2020 for picking the presidential election. It showed Rubio in the lead. I do think that once you become a part of popular culture and that's being on social media every day.

Me, those memes of Marco Rubio sitting there, whatever thing is happening in pop culture, he becomes a part of it.

Yeah, but it's in a positive way that this guy does everything. Yeah, no, it is.

“I think it and that kind of lifts your your political cred, especially from where he was when he was in the Senate.”

But usually as Secretary of State, you don't have that kind of profile. And he does at least right now, he already does. This is Rida, Radio. On Westwood One. Hello, American, Mark Levin here.

Many people seem to be incubating a rage looking for somewhere to go.

“Are there times when you think the country is out of control?”

Do you see all these things and you wonder, what in the world is going on? It was at this way five years ago, 10 years ago, 20 years ago. Do we have the will or not, but we are Americans. And I believe we absolutely do have the will. I do this show for you.
