Wow. What if you topics out there to discuss this morning, huh? It seems like all of a sudden the issues of socialism, not just the general concept and narrative of what socialism is, but actually what the communist socialist Nazis wish to do. Now, we control Nazi in.

I threw it in third because of Platner, all right?

I'm not accusing everybody of being a Nazi, we are accusing Platner of being a Nazi. But I thought this was a, was beautiful yesterday, there's really only one question that

you have to ask, and it was asked on CNBC yesterday, where they had Democratic Senator Lisa

Blunt Rochester on, and she was asked a simple question, "Where has socialism worked?" You ready for this? There we go, there we go. Where has socialism ever worked, Senator? Is that another question or is that for the next interview?

That's it, that's, oh yeah, it's definitely for you. You said, "Fish doesn't work everywhere, I just want to know one place where socialism has been, been beneficial." Well, when you have me, when you have me come back on, we can talk about all the races that you're at.

That's what I do. Amazing.

Here's, you know, here's the problem with it, the problem with the Democratic socialist

of America, promoting communism/socialism, is that what you're seeing in the world right now is the countries that went before us to enact those type of policies are now all reversing them.

As, you know, we have talked about, for example, and, you know, the left always used to,

you know, you Sweden, Sweden's moving in the opposite direction. The American countries that said, "Hey, all right, let's jump on it." Our reversing and in elections moving in a different direction. And so, because it's sometimes tougher to move things along here in the United States, which is what the founding fathers wanted.

They didn't want emotion to drive a policy, we're entering that stage now, but I just love it where she can't answer the question, so she has to deflect. So that should be a question that should be asked. And then when they get to Sweden, you get ready for it. What a day it was yesterday.

It, the Senate, by the way, took a revote on the War Powers Act, and the Senate changed their vote from last week after the meeting, the very high energy meeting, and you had Senator Cassidy, who actually went to the White House after the supposedly arguing, going back and forth between him and the president, he changed his vote, ran Paul voted present, and the momentum went, as it should, by the way, because what the White House said

actually makes sense when we're negotiating, you shouldn't take that away from us. Now, the point is, as we've said before, the War Powers Act from the 70s, every single

Administration, Democrat and Republican have come out and said, it's unconsti...

And why is it unconstitutional?

Because Congress cannot dictate to the president how he fights a war. They can take away the funding, they can't dictate, you know, so they can vote, and they can vote and say, we're going to rescind funding. They simply passed a, you know, they initially, you know, they, the Senate passed, saying the, the president can't use military action anymore.

It's meaningless. And why is it meaningless? Because the Constitution doesn't give them Congress the authority to do that. It gives them the authority to pull funding. It doesn't give them the authority to tell the president that he can't fight a war.

It's that simple.

And, uh, but I think the White House knew, and I think they are correct on this.

And it's interesting because you saw a change over the last two days. It seems like that Marco Rubio is now speaking for the administration when it comes to the entire deal. And we'll get to that here in a little bit. And he's saying things that you can look at, uh, you know, that you can look at yourself

that are different from what the administration was saying last week. So we will get to that coming up. But I, you know, I think, you know, a whole thing about the, the save act. Well, I read in the Wall Street Journal the most, it's ever gotten us 48 votes. So it doesn't matter whether you get reconciliation or not.

I don't think it would pass. I don't think the parliamentarian would allow it to pass because it's not about racing money. And so I saw Mike Johnson talking about that yesterday. Most people just went, okay. He was caught off guard because he didn't see the president's true social post.

And he thought the ceremony was going to be, you know, going on for the housing bill. And, and by the way, even though the president will sign it, uh, we hear on, on red eye.

We've never been for the housing bill from the very beginning.

And we'll get into some of the specifics. We did a few, we, we did about a month ago. When it first came out, we said, no, it's not going to, what it's going to do. It's actually, in some cases, going to increase the cost of a building at home, not decrease. It will go to those points coming up a little bit later on in, in the show.

But, uh, and, you know, when it comes to, um, you know, a fast tracking on the federal level when it comes to zoning and things like that actually means nothing when it comes to the state and local government because they're the ones that actually do it. The Republicans are just desperate right now.

I think what you saw yesterday, everything you saw, the, that you saw yesterday, you know,

be sides, the war powers act thing was all based on the panic of prices right now. I think the White House, and I think, you know, you, you look at, um, uh, the president also coming out and saying he's going to have the Department of Justice look after the oil, look at, uh, at the oil companies for gouging, and I went, he is a Republican, right? Because that's something that every Democrat president has done, what, over the last 30

years. We're going to go in and we're going to find out where they're gouging.

And then never find them gouging.

And I think it's part of the panic that you're seeing in the White House and from Republicans over prices. It's what we warned day one of the second term of Trump. And if you're a long time listener, you know, we did because economics is quite simple. It's not tough to figure out when you increase the cost of doing business, it doesn't give

you more business.

And then with the, uh, the White House problem, I'm sure they saw it and they know about

it. The CNBC analysis of, uh, last month, and we're losing factory jobs big time. And so when you look at that and we'll go through the specifics of, of all of that here for the round in the show, but just a general outline of what we saw happen yesterday. And I looked at it and I go, okay, the war powers act.

I think it's a great point. You know, even though Congress doesn't have the ability to stop the president, I mean, they could, they could impeach him and remove him from office. That's not happening over Iran, but they had a totally legitimate point. How can we negotiate?

We have no lever against the Iranians unless we can go back in. Well, nothing's going to stop the president from going back in. But even the imagery of it is what the White House was saying hurts the negotiations.

It actually makes sense.

Now, what are the negotiations now?

Don't know.

We'll play some of the audio cut from, uh, from Marco Rubio, who seems not to be the

point person after last week. And he's saying things that are different than the president and JD Vance. And it's being promoted by the White House. That's the other thing, it's not like he's out saying things. The White House is using their marketing machine to promote what Marco Rubio was saying right now.

So there you've got that with the Republicans, but then the, the Democrats did you.

Oh, I, I can't, I have to just just, just to, let me just see here if, if there's the actual

transcript of it, uh, oh, yeah, okay, here's, here's the quote. From, um, James Carvelle after what happened and the, in the New York, uh, I'm, quote, I'm done. I'm not in that F and political party. There you go.

So James Carvelle is done with the Democrats. Now, it's really fast.

I think the reporters chasing the came Jeffries yesterday, but both parties, as you can see,

both parties are having, uh, differences of opinion, uh, and so we, we cover all that.

But I, you know, I wish I could play the audio, but he curses so much that he just can't do it. You know, he's just, he just, he just furious right now, uh, but, uh, it's, uh, the Democrats Socialist of America. This is going to be fun. It really is.

So we'll get to that and, uh, and a whole bunch more, uh, when did this come out? This came out late last night around to Claire's new home as route, uh, unacceptable and dangerous warns ships against, uh, transiting without approval, uh, the IRGC warns at every, uh, that any new or moves shipping route announced without Iran's coordination is unacceptable and dangerous.

Ship traffic has remained far below the pre-war levels, despite the U.S. Iran, uh, interim, uh, agreement,

but they warn shipholders late yesterday that any new transit route through the Strait of Hormuz, established without coordination unacceptable, uh, they said the, uh, the, uh, IRGC Navy, they got a Navy, uh, said that the only shipping routes designed by Iran are permitted for passage and the coordination with Iranian forces via the designated communication channel is, uh, mandatory. It's interesting because as they talk about fees and even the president initially talked about fees.

Marco Rubio said yesterday zero. It's international waters zero. That's a different message than the, it when, when you look at what Marco Rubio's done the last two days. He's doing damage control from the statements of JD Vance and the president with the approval of the White House because they're marketing on their social media pages with Marco Rubio is saying.

So we'll get to that in a whole bunch where we got a great show, uh, coming up. I'm Yuri MacMur, we are right. I radio. Hey there. This is Hope Zavar with Mother Trucker Yoga and here's your health tip of the day. Healthy driver, healthy diesel, powered by house. Lower back pain is one of the most common complaints amongst truck drivers.

Let's fix that. Sit up tall in your seat. Inhale and arc your lower back away from the seat. Like there's a pin behind you. Now exhale, round your back and tuck your tailbone under. Just like the shape of the letter C. Repeat that movement five, 10, even 15 times until your lower back and hips start to loosen up and feel ready for the road.

There you go. Small, simple changes can lead to big results so that you my friend can feel good again. Visit mother trucker yoga.com and how is products.com for more tips and support. Coming up more with Gary MacMurah and Eric Carly, it's Red Eye Radio. We are Red Eye Radio. He is Eric Carly and I'm Gary MacMurah. Good morning. Eric has the morning off. All right. So this is going to make, if you're on the left,

It's going to make you very happy.

I didn't see what his work is, but as we said, you know, we talked about when the IPO

came out for SpaceX and we're like, okay, a lot of excitement. A lot of that can be driven by emotion.

You know, what's the return on the investment down the line? You know, what will the stock be?

And if you said what will the stock be in in six months or a year, because when you look at, when you look for example at SpaceX, a lot of their money comes from, you know, the the government because they believe SpaceX can do a cheaper. And you look at it and you say, "But what is the return on the investment?" You know, even getting government contracts, what is the return on investment long term? Where's the cash flow going to come in?

And for us, that's always been a question as to the IPO and the people that bought the stock

on day one, whether it was based on, you know, trust in Elon Musk long term, whether it was based on

emotion or whether it was based on people that legitimately believe that will be a return on the

investment, I have yet to see anybody lay that out that would give me confidence, you know, to buy that particular stock. But there's the story. Elon Musk is no longer, okay, I got the details here. Elon Musk is no longer worth more than one trillion. His net worth was valued at 946 billion as of Wednesday. According to Bloomberg billionaires index, that is down from about 1.11 trillion less than 14 days earlier. The drop came after shares of SpaceX and Tesla fell

during a broader tech sell-off investors have become more cautious about the long-term profitability of artificial intelligence. You know, we've talked about that too because, you know, that there's been so much hype on AI both ways, you know, that it's, you know, going to it's going to do things. It's going to create a society where people will have nothing to do. You know, it'll take all the jobs away. I don't believe that. And we have seen

productivity increases. Initially, I don't see it anymore. I see more reasonable, I think projections,

cautious projections of AI increasing productivity, which it will. It's what degree will it

increase productivity? Will it increase productivity one percent a year or 20 percent a year?

And if it, if it does 20 percent a year, will then how many jobs will be lost and can people transition into whatever the new jobs will be? Because that's the, that's the both ends there that okay, jobs are all going to go away. Any job have to do with tech's going to go away. Well, that's not true. And the, the other side of it is every single time we've had a massive increase in productivity and efficiency in the United States since the beginning. You look at the

Industrial Revolution. And we compared those a couple of months ago. We went and said, okay, if AI is going to do this, what did, if you, if you take those years, you know, between once, once you got industry really booming here, you take 1870 to like 1930. And there was a massive increase in productivity. And when you get to, you know, 1930, you've got, you know, Henry Ford and mass production, which completely just increased productivity. In this case, though, we look

at it and say, all right, one of the jobs will be, that will be created. But are they overexaggerating the, the job loss? Who knows? I mean, there's people on both sides. And I don't know. I can't, I can't tell you precisely what's going to happen. And I don't think anybody else can. But when you, you know, the long-term profitability of artificial intelligence or the, the SpaceX and Tesla also, I mean, what is the long-term, I guess profitability for those two companies.

You know, when you look at electric cars, our people are going to, our people are going to say, this is what I want, or because of inflation, no more subsidies, will Tesla. Not be as profitable. Hey there, I'm Paula Pan. I help people make this smartest money decisions possible. If you don't

Control your money, it controls the debt.

look outside of yourself to live the life that you want. You're not in control. You're like,

like, what is it that you actually want? Money should follow the dreams and goals, because sometimes you make the dream and goal the money and you've overworked yourself and you've exceeded what you've

needed for the actual thing you want. Sometimes we forget, like, what's the actual thing you want?

What I found interesting was on social media yesterday, everything was political. For example, the entire discussion on the housing bill. We need to get this, sir. We need to get the sewer affordability, affordability, affordability. Nobody actually tore it apart and said,

what's actually in the bill? And this was created by Elizabeth Warren. This is taken basically

50 different things from the left and the right and just putting it together. I look at this and I can speak for Eric here and we look at it. It's like, just do something. Just do something. Doesn't matter whether it works or not. Just do something so you can have the signing ceremony

and say, here's what we've done. It's so great. And you know, when you actually look at the main

selling point behind this bill over really the last year, when you think about it, has been the entire thing of keeping, you know, large companies from buying homes. And they made that as if that was the main crux of the deal where you look at it. We've gone through all the figures. It's a minuscule amount that companies actually buy, but they needed to find a buggy man to put this through. Now, is it going to make home buying cheaper? I was reading from

Ed Brady, who's president and cheap executive of the Home Builder's Institute. He said, you know, it's going to take some time for this to actually filter down if at all. And they look at some of the things for federal regulations like environmental impact on the federal level. But as I said, the vast majority of building is all local in state. The zoning is all local in state, Harley does this ever come in at all. And one one building organization said, well,

it's like having an appetizer, but not having the meal. But when you look at other things that are in the bill, as we've talked about, the effort to expand. Oh, and this is another thing, too.

Remember, the president earlier with Republicans took out a number of programs where government

was funding for new affordable housing. They took it out. This puts it back in again. And it said, uh, part of the law to expand small multi-family buildings with apartments that can be accessed by a single staircase or elevator grant recipients will have to pay union scale prevailing wages, which will raise costs. Such wage men's dates will also apply to a new grant that pays public housing agencies to install an installed temperature sensors in apartments. The program is a

make work project for unions. We reported several years ago that union wage mandates, this is from the Wall Street Journal resulted in the New York City Housing Authority spending one thousand nine hundred and seventy three dollars per apartment to install LED bulbs. Expect similar markups on sensor installations. The bill also establishes grants for planning and implementation associated with affordable housing, supporting attainable housing,

preview designs of mixed income housing and converting abandoned buildings into housing. Wasn't the goal of do's to eliminate government programs? The White House proposed budget for this year eliminates several housing grant programs. Now Congress plans to add more. The thing that Eric talked about yesterday, though, all these, all these, uh, expansion of the federal power come with stringent rules that a future democratic administration will

be sure to add on to. Housing shortages are a result of restrictive state and local zoning and permitting dangling money that comes with federal mandates will not help. Housing, uh, House Republicans also attached provisions that ease regulations on community banks

At the margin, but in return, Democrats and sort of the rule that let the fed...

insurance corporation wave its rule requiring it to resolve failing banks at the least cost.

The change means the FDIC could block a large bank from acquiring an insolvent bank,

even if it's bid is the least costly. Elizabeth Warren loves this one. And of course, we've covered the, uh, demanded ban institutional investors from acquiring homes, Maxine Waters ranking Democrat, raising anti-bid demanding that HUD set up a hotline for tenants to complain about investor landlords, the legislation directs H O H U D to resolve tenant disputes to the extent practical and share possible federal law violations with other

agencies like the consumer financial protection bureau, you almost have to admire Ms. Waters for driving up the price for Republicans to get democratic voters knowing the Trump team is desperate to pass a housing bill. She also insisted on the prevailing wage requirements. And you know, that's the problem when you do something like this. So everybody was talking about, we got to get the housing bill passed in order to win the election. Well, what does a housing bill do? Nobody was

actually talking about what does a housing bill actually do? You didn't see that on social media, even from Republicans are just saying, we got to pass something to pretend that we're attempting to lower prices by getting the government involved more in the private sector.

You know, and it's just, it's amazing. It's a, I was amazed yesterday that,

well, and I went, I mean, I just, I was going through social media yesterday and as many posts, I probably went through a hundred different posts. You know, by by senators, Congresspeople,

and everything else, and nowhere did it discuss actually what was in the bill. Why?

Because the thing was sold to you that there's this incredible problem out there of institutional investors and corporations buying houses, and it's not. It's a miniscule amount of of houses compared to the number of houses in the United States and the number of houses, you know, that are being built. But I think everything that you, not, not everything because not the war powers act, but besides the war powers act, everything you saw yesterday is the

Republicans panicking over prices. Everything, a couple of stories out there because of the shortage of chips, you know, for computers, AI and everything else that it's driving up the cost and adding to inflation. CNBC also had the, the, the story yesterday about the government figures. Here it is.

Job cuts at U.S. factories ran near their highest level since the end of the global financial

crisis in 2009, and the COVID-19 pandemic has worries grow over global demand and rising cost. That's from the SMP global manufacturing reading yesterday. Now, the actual manufacturing level of what we were producing went up slightly, but they believed that's for because of replenishing inventories. Job cuts at U.S. factories ran near their highest levels since the end of the global financial crisis in 2009 and the COVID-19 pandemic. Manufacturers have indicated job cuts for three of the

past four months, as they seek to reduce head count over cost and demand concerns. Most worrying was the fuller fall further fall in employment, notably the manufacturing sector. Factory job cuts are running at the highest level since 2009. You see here, so that's trying to say there's any other figures that I want to throw in there. They look they look gross signs are tepid for the economy accelerated just 1.6 annualized

pace in the first quarter and a bigger point 5% in the fourth quarter of 2025.

This is why we said in the very beginning, not the tariffs can't have, not that you can't have an effective use of tariffs if somebody has involved in unfair trading practices, but it was promoted through the tariffs that this was making the United States rich, that it was foreign manufacturers, that would pay the tariffs, all that was false. And as we said from the very beginning, do not lie about economics to the American public.

Doesn't matter whether you're a Democrat or Republican, do not lie.

And I've been shocked at the Republican parties and Vivalence towards prices.

Whether it's the administration, the administration, I guess I can give a pass to because the administration, you know, Trump's love tariffs from, you know, 40, 50 years so that's new. It's the Republican Party afraid to challenge that and now everybody's panicking over prices.

That's what you saw yesterday. What you saw yesterday is Republican Party saying,

we could lose this election and if we lose this election, it's because of prices. So we got to do anything, even if it's just imagery that we're going to boost the economy. And that's where we are right now. And, you know, so was there another thing, I don't think any other thing came out yesterday,

but we had said it. And remember, you know, we've always told this president

stop promising big things and not delivering. Don't promise a doge check. Don't promise a tear of check. Don't do that. Don't, and look, you can convince Democrats that if you make the cost of doing business higher, that it will lower prices because they'll

believe any damn thing. They've gone communists now. And if you're going to be a socialist

or a communist, as I've said before on economics, you always have to lie. But when, you know, but you cannot tell Republicans, whether it's the minimum wage, I just saw

the minimum wage to $15, didn't pass in Oklahoma.

You know, it's like, no, we understand it's going to cause an increase in prices. Let, let individual people decide what kind of job they want. But no, don't do that. If you raise the cost of doing business, it's going to hurt your overall business. It's impossible to make it better. Yet Republicans fell for that. It's something that Democrats have been

throwing out for a minimum, oh no, because if you take the minimum wage and the minimum wage goes up, those people will have money and then can go and spend it. What do they fail to mention? The job cuts that come because of it and the increase in prices that come because of making the cost of doing business higher. And so that's where you are. That's where we are right now. That's the panic that you saw yesterday.

In my humble opinion, that's what I believe it was. It was seeing the factory jobs crashing

over the last, you know, really over the last year. The last figure I saw was roughly 80,000. We've lost 80,000 manufacturing jobs. And when you look at, you know, the trade deficit, it's still there. Can't change that. So with, you know, by implementing, by implementing tariffs, the overall trade deficit. There may be differences between countries, but the overall trade deficit is still the same.

So that's the problem for the Republicans. Now the Democrats, we'll be getting to have a major problem of their own. Oh, my gosh. Let me see. No, we'll play it here coming up next. The theme. I, I, I know. I cannot, I cannot preview it. Just stand by because this is good and it's coming up next. We are Red Eye Radio. Get in touch with Red Eye Radio, toll free at 866. You might be red eye. We are Red Eye Radio. He is a Crony and I'm Gary McNamara,

Eric has the morning off. All right, you ready for this? A little bit of fun here. Guess who this is the, this is the, a, a Democratic socialist of America, slight election night party from the other night. All right. Now tell me who they're Boeing. All right. Here we go. You ready? Here we go. They're all boeing in their hands, you know, thumbs down everything else. It's because somebody

came on the screen, who came on the big screen that they were watching. Was it Trump? Was it, uh, was it Thune? Was it McConnell? Was it JD Vance? Was it Marco Rubio? Was it Fatterman? No, it was the

Team Jeffries.

No, I don't have time. We'll play it coming up here. But like the second and, uh, charge the,

the, the Democrat Socialists of America basically saying we're just using the Democratic party.

That's our conduit in. We don't support what they believe. You know, they, because you can tell. Are they eventually going to boo AOC? Think about it. This is, it's mind boggling that the game Jeffries is getting booed. You know how radical left he is. And then we played yesterday van Jones, who was considered probably the most radical socialist in existence when he became

advisor to President Obama back in 2008, 2009, 2009. It would be just amazing.

Now for the our news is brought to you by how product is at how products.com. This is Red Eye Radio on Westwood One.

Now it's Red Eye Radio. Gary McNamara and Eric Hurley talk about everything from

politics 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. We are Red Eye Radio. He is Eric Hurley and I'm Gary McNamara. Good morning. You know, bum me out the most yesterday. Going through social media, because I was just, there were so many things going on. I was just trying to get a handle of what, you know, what,

all the influencers, how they were, you know, spending whatever was going on during the day. But I came upon somebody who posted this. Ready? The length of and anybody who's around my age can relate to this. The length of time between 1980 and 1972 is the same as 1972 and now. That bum me out. Not for long, no. Actually, I laughed when I saw that.

Oh, and the other thing is it's amazing. We have an amazing listenership.

Yes, to answer people who have communicated with me since I've been on for the last hour, by the way, Eric has a morning off. Did you install the chlorine generator? Yes, my whole new chlorine generator system is in and it is operating as a chute. So I am now producing a little chemistry here. I am now producing salt-based chlorine through electrolysis. Can you taste the salt? I got that one yesterday, because I talked about I have a saltwater pool.

And I've had one for 20 years, but after 20 years, it's like the entire system I'm replacing, because the technology is completely different and man, so it's so much more simple to operate as the control board and everything that you have. It's not that you have a saltwater pool. You don't do anything to it. You still have to make sure the chemical balance is right. The alkalinity, the pH, the amount of stabilizer you have in, which is stabilizers, is when the sun

comes out of burns off chlorine real quickly, but the stabilizer in, you need to keep the

pH at a certain level by putting acid into your pool. But it's not that you just have people think it's saltwater pools, so you don't have to put chlorine. No, it makes the chlorine out of sodium chloride. And so that's how you get that. So people just have to ton of questions on that. All right, you ready for this? And this does not surprise me at all. This story yesterday in the New York Post, again, a supporter of Trump.

Republicans support Trump's Iran deal, until they find out what's actually in...

Republican voters like the preliminary piece deal with Iran less. The more they know about

it, according to a new poll shared with the post of just Republican voters, registered Republican

voters. Initially registered Republican voters back the deal by a margin of more than 3 to 1, 62% to 20% according to the survey by jail partners. But after hearing the details of the memorandum of understanding signed by President Trump last week, it fell to 32% deemed it a good deal, 44% panned it as a bad deal, and another 15% said it's neither. That's a huge drop.

Respondents took particular issues with provisions. These are Republican respondents to

particular issue with provisions of the MOU waving sanctions to allow the sale of Iranian crude oil and the agreement by the United States not to impose new penalties during the 60 day negotiating period. More than half of GOP voters 57%. Said they would be less inclined to support the deal after hearing. It eases sanctions without requiring Iran to stop funding terrorist proxies in the Middle East or dismantle its nuclear and ballistic missile programs.

If other countries have them, it's a little bit unfair for them not to have some Trump told reporters. Last week in response to criticism of the agreement, I still boggles my mind that he said that. Am I going to let Saudi Arabia have missiles? But Iran can't have them. It doesn't work that way.

Well, the only thing is, as Boz brought up immediately, as we said, Saudi Arabia is in shooting missiles

at the United States and its allies. Nearly half the respondents, 48%, said they would be less

likely to support a peace deal that promised Iran 300 billion in reconstruction funds,

which both Trump and Vice President J.D.Vansom claimed would be used in part to purchase American agricultural products. A whopping 63% of Republican voters also said they don't want any deal unless Iran surrenders. It's in rest uranium and dismantles its nuclear facilities. More than half 52% also agreed that Israel should be allowed to attack Esmalah in Lebanon even

at the expense of a deal with Iran. Just 30% argued that reaching a deal to reopen the state of Hormuz should take priority. When asked, who won the war? This is a problem for the administration. I do believe that their own internal polls show the same thing, which is why

Marco Rubio is out there now, the last two days. When asked, who won the war?

44% of GOP respondents felt that the U.S. had won, while 19% said Iran had got the better of the conflict, 31% concluded it was a tie or that neither country won for the poll. Republican voters were also split. Over which side had gotten the better deal with 40% saying the U.S. had a better deal, 36% saying Iran had won the peace, had won. And 24% said they were not sure. Remember, these are all Republican voters.

So no surprise that J.D. Vance is in there. Look, we said it the other day. With all the I mean, you go on social media, you look at the rhetoric back and forth on it, and the narrative which was, and still up to just a couple of days ago, it was, yeah, but look what we did to Iran and we're like, yeah, we know, we agree with what happened. But no one, it would be all say this.

I don't say no one because somebody will find one person.

Republican that would have given the go ahead to the president to go to war with Iran. If he had said, the result will be this memorandum of understanding at the end.

That's the problem the president has with the party right there. And that's why I believe

that Marco Rubio has been sent out the last couple of days after he just sort of, he disappeared

for a while. And when you saw him, he was never smiling.

And so give me just one second here. I just I closed my window that had the audio cuts that I that I wanted to play here from Rubio from yesterday. Let's just play some of the, this is some of the audio from the Secretary of State that was asked about a variety of things concerning Iran, the deal, and so forth. Here we go. I think there'll be against it. I think the whole world will be against any mechanism that charges

money to use in international waterway. It's that simple. The president's already said it, that's not going to happen. When we meet up in the streets, we meet up in the streets free in international waterways. So we'll express that tomorrow. I am certain, and then only

while every country in the Gulf region be supportive, probably with the exception of Iran,

but all the GCC members will be supportive, but the whole world will be supportive. I know of no country on the planet. That supports tolling or fee for the use of the streets. That's just not, that's not going to happen. The president has been abundantly clear. Well, he hasn't been abundantly clear on that one. That's why because in the memorandum of understanding, where it said no tolls will be charged for 60 days.

Here's more on Israel. And here we go. Do you believe that some elements of U.S. intelligence have assessed that Israel is interested in undermining the current M.A.U.?

I don't know what we're talking about. I think that's what I reported.

Well, but it's being reported. Do you know, I don't know where you're getting that stuff from. We're working on this. These rallies are exactly what we're working on. All of our partners in the region know what we're working on. Everybody understands what the president's red lines and positions are on this. I don't know what reports are referred to.

So there you go. And that goes back to the president over the last week.

As we have said, the moral equivalency, and this is where he basically said,

"Israel and Iran need to get it together as if the United States wasn't a part of it?" It's like what? And the blame that he put on Israel, where he made it seem, and that I thought that the worst thing that he did made it seem as if was trying to convince the public that Israel was attacking civilian sites. Instead of saying collateral damage, because that's where, you know,

has below or whoever put their headquarters in. Here's more from Marco Rubio. Israel signaled that, you know, it's reluctant to withdraw the forces back to 10 kilometers, but for example, is that something that you would support as these talks go on in Washington? No, for Israel withdrawing from some zones, that's not enough. Well, the whole purpose, the other reason Israel is in Lebanon is because

has below launches rockets and drones from that. They've made that clear. And the talks continue today. They started yesterday. They're going on today. They'll go on tomorrow, and that's exactly what they're talking to the Lebanese about with our mediation. And that is our hope that the Lebanese armed forces and the legitimate sovereign Lebanese government will continue to be able to control and secure more and more of their own territory.

Because that's who needs to control Lebanese territory, not a terrorist group like Hezbollah. So that's the goal. And I think the Israelis have been clear. They don't have any quarrels with the Lebanese people. They don't have any claims on the territory of Lebanon. The reason why they're involved there is because territory of Lebanon is being used to launch drones and missiles against Israel. But the more of that area, the Lebanese armed forces is able to secure

the less of its in Hezbollah's control, the less Israel will be in Lebanon. But obviously,

that's the process we're working through right now with these talks. That's what the core of these talks.

Is it your assessment that the Lebanese armed forces today as it stands are capable enough, trust we're going to have to do that. Well, that's what we have to do. Look, we have to build up that capacity. It's been a longstanding challenge. I think the willingness is there. I think we need to help build up that capacity. And one of the issues that's been discussed in these negotiations about the creation of pilot zones, specific defined areas where the

Lebanese armed forces can go in, take control and secure that territory, and then move on to

The next pilot zone.

everybody that Israel was conducting operations in the southern Lebanon well before this operation

happened. And so this is something we all want to see resolved for the future of Lebanon. We want to see a Lebanon that's in the control of their legitimate government, where there is no foreign government encroaching on their territory. And I want to reiterate the Israelis have told us, and that is the only reason why they're there is because Hezbollah's launching the gangster people. As you can see, the message clearly has changed as Marco Rubio seems to be over the last couple of days,

the point person, and understand that these things that Marco Rubio has said have been promoted

by the president and the administration in social media. So it's not as if he's out there

rogue talking about it. What happened is we brought you the one poll, the internal polls, showed the White House, they were getting crushed and Republicans were bailing big time once they found out what was in the memorandum of understanding. And what the president was attempting, and JD Vans was attempting to convince the country of Republicans when they heard it weren't buying it.

And that's why Rubio's been out there the last couple of days. That's why he has been the

point person on this. We are Red Eye Radio. This morning's USDA Farm Report is brought to you by

House products tested, trusted, guaranteed since 1920. Much of the Easter 2/3 of the day should

continue to report rate-related improvements in pasture and rage lag conditions. Meteorologist Brad Ripy says in the latest USDA pasture and rage lag condition report. Good to excellent ratings, Ashley. On the 21st of June 33, the excellent upper point from last week, 37% very poor to poor at the two point improvement from the previous week. Low numbers continue to come in from the plains and rocky mountain region,

as well as the bit elastic. However, on the flip side, we have seen dramatic improvement in parts of the shelf that is pushed the good to excellent ratings to 79% in Alabama. We also see some very good pastures still on much of the Midwest with numbers at or above 75% good to excellent in Iowa, Michigan, and Missouri. Rod Bay in reporting for the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Washington, D.C. This report brought to you by Senax fuels and loops. We'll be right back with more

red-eye radio with every currently and dairy McNamara. We are Red-eye radio. He is our currently and I'm Gary McNamara, Eric has the morning off. Let me play this here. This is an holy bugoti from CNN and Dan Goldman, who lost. Remember,

he was Mr. impeachment against Trump. As radical as you can get, but the fact is,

he said he supported Israel, so he's out. Last I saw he was down by 32 points in the primary, but listen to him squirm here back a few years ago. I mean, you went out on a limb backing up Biden when he said that there would not be a pardon. In July of 2023, just after that plea deal fell through, this is what you said. I want to watch. Do you think a pardon for his son would be in the stake?

Yes, and I don't think there's any chance that President Biden is going to do that, unlike his predecessor, who pardoned all of his friends and anyone who had any access to him. And I think you see that in this case, where he kept on, and Merrick Garland kept on, a Trump appointed U.S. attorney to investigate the president's son. If there is not an indication of the independence of the Department of Justice, beyond that, I don't know what we could look for.

What does that feel like? Watching yourself back then reassuring people that Biden was not going to

issue a pardon for his son? Yeah, and I think that if that plea agreement and that plea

deal had gone through, there would be no pardon. That was satisfactory outcome. It already fallen. Sorry. When you reacted, this was when the deal had fallen through. And I hear what you're saying about the cash-petel appointment, but you know, you took him at his word. So what does that feel like knowing that he's gone back on it?

Well, as I said, I'm disappointed that after the plea fell through and it bec...

why it did, including Republican congressional intervention, he, she actually gave him the out.

But you should see the look, he just, the, the, the look in his eyes. I mean, just, it has their

glazed over. But this is when you, we talk about the left. It's so easy because she's a liberal, and she was able to trip him up. Part of our frustration with the Republican party is how easy it is to defeat liberal arguments. And it's like, they should be doing it. It should be a slam dunk every day. But coming up following the bottom of the hour, we will get to the whole

socialism, communism, Naziism, where the Democrat party is, you know, you still have, I mean,

you had with the Republican yesterday, they were going back and forth over issues.

Some of them resolved, you know, the, the, the war power thing resolved a lot not resolved,

but there are issues, the Democratic party. This is a, this is a war versus insanity versus mega insanity. We'll get to that coming up. You're listening to Red Eye Radio from the Relief Factor Studios. We are when I read you. He is there. Crowley, he has a morning off. I'm Gary McNamara. I don't. Don't let our red eye radio app today. And you can listen, when and where you choose. All right.

The, the primaries in New York. And, and elsewhere, you can throw in James Taloreco here

in the state of Texas. And just how radical the Democratic party has become, this is interesting.

This is Claire Valdez, who is a Democratic nominee for New York six. Here's what she has said,

for example, about the airlines. Here we go. My, my hot take is we need to abolish precheck. I've got, like, a million beasts with the airline industry and the process of having to fly, we need to, like, nationalize the airline industry. But that means the federal government needs to take over the airlines. So again, she is promoting communism, socialism communism as we all know. It, it really was a wonderful day yesterday as everybody is trying to analyze, even on the right.

What I found is she was the right analyze how this happened to the Democratic party. How did they get, how did they get to this place? We played earlier the King Jeffries being booed. And I was reading here. This is from nation review editorial page, looking for what, you know, what the, the right was thinking yesterday, following the rise of the squad and the riot of leftism in between 2019 and 2021. It's seen the Democrats were learning a few lessons, Jamal Bowman and

Cory Bush lost their primaries in 2024. The party establishment flexed its muscle to stifled changes to Biden in the 2024 primaries and demonstrated that it had the juice to, when he proved the liability. Progressive run campuses kept anti-Israel disorder to a minimum during the fall of 2024 election season. There was talk after the loss at the election, after the election that the election that peak woke was over and that the Democrats might need to back away from the toxic

stew of socialism, transgender ideology, anti-Semitism, and radical rhetoric. No more. Candidates backed, mundani, the Democratic Socialists of America and the about enemies of Israel were in the driver seat on Tuesday. It's interesting as everybody now attempts to promote her name. Daria Liza Avila Chevalier, topped the incumbent who was a chairman of the Congressional Hispanic caucus. Claire Veldez defeated the Brooklyn Burl President,

Brad Lander, a former DNC member, DSA member, trashed incumbent, representati...

by 30 points in a race targeting Goldman's support for Israel,

which apparently now outweighs that he was Mr. impeachment against Trump. None of that matters to

that. Also defeated George Conway and other candidates who ran on the anti-Trump brand, rather than on leftist ideology, which suggests that the Democrat bases are ready to begin to look past the president to the direction of their own party and it's a frightening one. As it is, when you see what we've gone through, what the DSA wants,

then look into the Wall Street Journal saying it's true voter turnout was low as it often

is in primaries and the open seat race for New York's seven congressional district, for example,

leftist Claire Veldez. Veldez excuse me one with a mirror 37,531 votes as of Wednesday's counting.

That's only 7.6% of the districts nearly 500,000 registered Democrat voters. But her opponent, the Brooklyn Burl president Antonio Renoso, had the support of the District's Retirement Congresswoman and the party's establishment. This shows the DSA is highly

organized and can get out the vote of the young progressives who have replaced the white

center's voters who have fled New York. It's hard to overstate how far to the left the mandani slate is. Abra Kawasaki won the primary for the state Senate seat, has said she found it

reprehensible to apologize for 9/11 when America hasn't apologized for its system of

capitalism, racism, and white supremacy. We guess she won't be going to the 25th anniversary ceremony at Ground Zero. Then you have Daria Aliza, Avila Shvelier, who ousted the leader of the anti-Israel protest at Columbia University after the 2023 Hamas massacre. She was for Hamas. She's called for abolishing police, prisons and borders. She called Joe Biden, a rapist, and a war criminal, and says the US is occupied, Native American land, and called the country, an effin disgrace.

She favors seizing private property of individuals. It's looked up. It's looked up and saw Alan the other side of the wind. It just shake it as I'd like. How could she and the rest of the mandani slate win? One reason is that Democrats have run America's biggest cities for decades, yet haven't solved the problems of unsafe streets, lack of affordable apartments, and failing public transit. Representative Dan Goldman's main campaign theme was that he impeached Donald Trump. He lost

they boot he came Jeffries. They hate Schumer. They don't want Pelosi. As he pat medicine of the left falls and Republicans are not competitive politically in New York city. The voters turned further left. Another reason for the socialist rise is that mainstream liberals put up so little resistance like other Democrats, the head of the Hispanic caucus, shares the socialist left wing goals, but wants to get there more gradually. This is a feeble answer when

angry voters want immediate progress. They defeated Democrats in New York refused to make principled arguments against socialism or the anti-Semitism of the mandani left. After Tuesday, they may offer even less resistance. They will face more socialist challengers across the country, and history says it will try to survive by accommodating the left's ideas, Medicare for all higher income taxes, and a well tax and abolishing ice

are all going to be on the Democratic agenda. If not in swing states in 2026, then in the Democratic presidential primary race in 2028. The DSA is a growing force and has already captured the mayor's

Office in Washington, D.

his dream of capturing the Democratic Party for the left through the younger generation.

Republicans may glow to about this far left Democratic turn, but that is a mistake, perhaps it will help them keep some of the house seats this year, but it boats ill for democracy when the party of the center left swings even harder left, and many Trump Republicans are also dabbling with socialist ideas as we have brought up. We said this when the president said, "I'm going to take equity in certain corporations." We went, "No, don't do that!" Stop that!

Federal government has no business, have inequity in companies. Don't do that. You make it then easier for Democrats to go there, but what happened when you've got a weak Republican party when it comes to standing strong for conservative principles and explaining to the American

public in detail why they are right and marketing it 24/7 all year long. What do you get?

A bill that the Republicans are cheering that was really authored and created by Elizabeth Warren. That's what you get.

And as I said, first day of the Trump administration, he got a tackle prices

and they just refused to do that. And now you saw yesterday the panic in the Republicans. Uh-oh, prices could kill us here because people care about their own self-interest. How far will this expand? I don't know. But when you look at the Democrat Party and even the establishment,

the establishment I believe the majority has 90% of the goals as the DSA. They just knew they

couldn't sell it to Americans. They didn't believe they could sell it to Americans.

But when you see the radical transgender movement, when you see that they had, look, the anti-Semitism

just didn't come from the DSA. The anti-Semitism has come from the mainstream of the Democratic Party through identity politics, judging people by groups and not individuals. They've been doing that. They've institutionalized that form of racism, the Democrats have, and not the DSA. That was established a while back by what has viewed as establishment Democrats. Same with the radical transgender movement. That's been embraced by 99.9% of Democrats, including all these so-called

moderate Democrats out there. And there's nothing moderate about it. There's nothing moderate about the Democratic Party. The establishment and the promotion of the radical transgender movement and the misogyny and the sexism of it and the racism that we now see that they're afraid to fight. And now they're going to be more afraid to fight because they see goldman gets wiped out by over 30 points the last I saw. And he was viewed as a hero to Democrats just

a couple of years ago. An absolute hero. He impeached Trump. He was a council. He got him. Didn't matter. During a little secret, the DSA doesn't care about a peachy Trump.

They care about communism taking over the country. That's what they care about. They look at

Trump ago. Trump's on office. Why would we focus on him? We don't care. We care about our radical agenda. And these people are just Trump, Trump, Trump, what are you doing? And you're really not moving fast enough on where we all want to go. We know you want to go there. You're just afraid to do it. We're not afraid to do it. And we're not afraid to proudly promote our socialism communism and even not seeism. You saw how much problem the establishment had of severely criticizing

Platner. They couldn't do it. What it is, is there a freight of losing power. A king of Jeffries is afraid of losing power. Schumers of freight of losing power. The establishment Democrats are afraid of losing power. We are a red eye radio celebrating 250 years of freedom.

Elon Musk is no longer a trillionaire, and Tucker Carlson is no longer a Republican. What? I'm telling that had no. Tucker Carlson, saying he wasn't in a Republican, that had no buzz in Republican circles at all. None. It was like, whatever you. Okay, bye. It's not been yet. None whatsoever. On social media a little bit. But I've been in that, it was like, eh, the Republican Party is not going to miss you.
